T was “standing room only” last night at the California Theater long before the 8 o'clock mark, with the latest farce comedy success “The Telephone GIrl” as the programme. All of those who have ever called up ‘Central” and spent hot and hapless mo- ments trying to “make her understand,” seemed to be there, or trying to obtain a glimpse of the modern oracle in her lair. ““The Telephone Girl” is worth seelng and hearing. Not since the Dunne and Ryley | engagement last season has such clever work of the musical farce comedy kind been done here. The book, by Hugh Mor- ton, 1s distinctly bright and original, the songs, by Gustave Kerker, will be in ac- tive circulation within the week—more especially “My Estelle"—and the settings and costumes leave nothing to be desired. There are any number of pretty girls in the chorus, and out of it. Mabel Hite is a fetching soubrette, and as Estelle Coo- c0o won much applause.

The latest rupture between the two factions grew out of an assault | that occurred early yesterday morning. Both ate powerful organizations and pre- liminariey for a bloody conflict commenced as soon as the challenge for battle was accepted in the afternoon. The authori- ties are vigilant and are searching all sus- picious characters for weapons. The leading members of the trade or- ganizations in Chinatown called at police headquarters last night and urged that as- sistance be given them in their efforts to prevent murder. The Suey Din Tong held a banguet in the Woey Sen Low restaurant, at 808 Du- pont street, Saturday night. The party dispersed about 2 o'clock Sunday morning and the president with a number of his friends started for their homes. When they reached the corner of Washington street they were assaulted by members of the Hop Sing Tong and bndl{ beaten. Police whistles were blown. but the as sailants made their escape before the a: rival of the officers. Yesterday & meeting of the Suey Dins was called and it was decided that blood alone coulé wipe ou the insult offered by the assault. Accordingly a challenge was ent to the headquarters of the Hop Sing Tong and was accepted within an hour, A fever of excitement immediately spread over Chinatown, especlally when it be- came known that messages had been sent to several dangerous highbinders of Seattle and Fresno to come to this city with all possible epeed. Last night the police were very alert, but few members of either warring fac- tion were seen on the streets. | SEATTLE WAWTS MORE INSURANCE COMPETITION Law Proposed to Operate Against an Alleged Combination in San Francisco.

At the time of his arrest he had more | than $700 on his person. On being quel—" tioned as to his source of income he de- clared that this money belonged to others, | and that he relied only on small gifts of | | money to defray his living expenses. He | declared that the Lord directed all his movements, and that nothing occurred In | his life without an intimation first coming to him in a supernatural manner. When asked whether his arrest had been super- naturally indicated to him he repiled that since he was lllegally arrested he sup- posed that fact would account for his fail- ure to receive divine warning. 1t is Chief Meredith's intention to have Schlatter brought before the municipal court us a faker, under the vagrancy law. When asked for an explanation of the ar- rest, Chief Meredith said: “The arrest of this faker and confidence man, Charles McLean, alias Schlatter, who'is duping people under the cloak of being a religious doctor, is the beginning of war in this city on quack doctors. These persons are not only bunkoing peo- ple out of their money, but robbing them of health as well. The amount of dam- age done by theso quacks is incalculable. It is the poor people that they prey upon. 1'am not going to allow all the quack doc- tors who have been driven out of other cities to come here, and those who are here had better seek other fields." Schlatter yesterday on seeing that he could not persuade his listeners that he should not be illegally arrested, assumed the air of a martyr, and declared that whatever was the will of the Lord would be done. Schlatter was followed to jall by crowds as soon as his arrest became known, and women offered to put up bail for him.

GOLD IS LACKING IN SAND THEY BOUGHT Business Men of Washington Town Are Indignant Because of an Alleged Swindle. TACOMA, March 10.—Last July Colfax business men ralsed $15,000 with which to develop placer claims on Salmon River, in Idaho. Some men had brought in bags of dirt containing three cents and over per pan, and clalming that richer dirt would be found lower down. On these representations stock sold freely and a large hydraulic plant was put In, with sawmill and pipeline, and_the building of a flume was wel! started.
