The Chinese section of San Francisco is about to receive what it has long needed— thorough fumigation, fenovation and dis- infection. The sanitary brigade will begin aperations to- mder the immediate di- rection of the State Foard of Health. Yes- terdar Dr. W. P.

Harrison, McFarland and Garoutte Testify in Unprejudiced Manner in the Action Against Van R. Paterson. it 1If Justices of the Supreme Court Harri- son, McFarland and Garoutte bear any ill { will toward Horace W. Philbrook they refrained from expressing the same Wwhen en the stand in Judge Murasky's court Yésterday. They were called as witnesses ©on behalf of the plaintiff in the action in- stituted by Philbrook against Judge Van R. Paterson, the plaintiff hoping that they would furnish some information which would assist him in building at least a foundation for his “conspiracy” charge. { Justice Harrison, whom_Philbrook has | been assailing for years, was unprejudiced |in his manner. Philbrook started in on Justice Harrison in an effort to discover which one of the Justices took the first step against_him in the disbarment pro- ceeding. The question was ruled out, and then Philbrook plied many imma- terial questions regarding personal and social affairs, All were courteously an- swered by_the witnes: Justice Mcrariand was _questioned as to his acquaintance with Wiuam F. Her- rin, attorney for the Southern Pacific Company, He admitted that he was ac- quainted ‘with Mr. Herrin, but denied the impression Philbrook sought to convey that he had consulted with Herrin re- garding Philbrook arment prior to the rendition of the disbarment judgment. Justice Garoutte used to express his on of the plaintiff and was soon dis- from the stand. * Several witnesses tollowed Justice Gar- routte in rapid succession.

A ST KT Jury Willh Hear Vagrancy Charge Against Her and Charge of Attempted Extortion Is Dismissed. —_— The case of Clara McCann, charged with attempting to extort money, was dismiss- ed by Judge Cabaniss yesterday on mo- tion of the attorney for the defendant on the ground that the complaint issued last November is defective. At the same time it was intimated that the complaining witress in that case would not prosecute. The charge of vagrancy against Miss McCann was again called in Judge Mo- gan’s court yesterday. She was arrested on complaint of Jacob J. Gottlob of the Ceclumbia Theater, but as he has left the cit on his honeymoon trip and will be ent for some months there was a dis- position at first on the part of the pres- ecution to drop the case. Her attorney Insisted yesterday upon it being set for trisl by a jury. He sald he would be sat- isfied with five jurors. The Judge con- tinued the case till next Thursday for trial and issued & venire for fifty trial : Jurors. Yesterday morning a brother of Mrs. Gottlob called upon Chief Sul- livan and showed him a_ letter which mother Mrs. Dannen- baum, 2219 California street, had received from ‘Miss McCann. 1In this letter Miss McCann ‘reviled Gottlob and said that al- though he was married she would follow him to the end of the earth. She also threatened to kill him. She claimed he lLad ruiined her life and she had no money to support herself or her mother, = The Chief sent Dannenbaum with Police- men Sylvester to the warrant and bond clerk’s office to get a warrant charging t McCann woman with extortion, but after reading the letter Clerk Fitzpatrick said there wi othing in it that would Justify such a 8¢ MONGOLIANS WILL BE DENIED FIRST PAPERS Effect Will Be to Do Away With Chinese Crews on Government Transports.

As He Falls Mortally Wounded They Search His Pockets, Securing ‘ Only a Small Sum of Money. o fgecasic Albert Sinyard, a sailor, was shot and mortally wounded by iwo, footpads at the corner of Howard and Spear streets late’f last night. Sinyard was on his way to his room at 213 Stcuart street, when he was suddenly confronted by the two men, one of whoni commanded him to throw up his hands. Thinking_he was the victim of practical jokers Sinyara replied with an cpitheteand was about to continue on his way, when one of tae footpads pointed his revolver at him and fired. The bul- let entered Sinyard's left side, passin: in dangerous proximity to his neart an Causing & fatal wound. As the unfortunate man fell to the side- walk the desperate robbers went through his }umkel!. securing about $1 50, After taking his money:they fled in op- posite directions, one running along How- |- ard street and the otner along Spear street, Although weak from the loss of blood, Sinyard, realizing that to remain where he had falien meant sure death, managed to regain his feet after frequent attempts and to walk down Howard street, hoping to meet a policeman. After walking within one door of his lodging-house "he .mct a friend named Alex Anderson, alsa a sallor, and falling into his arms he begged him to send for a doctor, “It's all off with me,” pitifully remarked the victim of the footpads. “For God's sake take me <o the hispital.” ‘With the assistance of several friends Anderson conveyed the wounded man to the Harbor Recelving Hospital, where an examination disclosed that he was beyond all human ald. Deputr District Attorney Fitzpatrick was at once sent for and he took the dy- ing man's statement. In a feeble voice Sinyard said that before he started for his lodgings he visited a saloon at Second and Natoma streets. He had several drinks there and then walked down Howard street. On reaching Spear street two men, both of whom wore slouch hats, sprang out of a doorway and at the point of a pistol ordered him tp throw up ?ll! hands. “'I told tham to go to a warmer . mate,” remarked the wounded sallor, “as I thought they were shipmates and were trying to have some fun with me. As I started down the street one of the men shot me in the side, after shouting to me to stop. I fell to the sidewalk, and as I lay prostrate, one of the men searched my pockets, while the other stood over me threatening to kill me if 1 made an After taking all the money I had the man who shot me passed his gun to his companion and ran up Howard street. The other leisurely walked along Spear street and finally disappeared. Sinyard described the man who shot | him as being about five feet seven inches in height and weighed about 130 pounds. He was clean shaven and had light hair. The other, he says, about two Inches taller and was much heavier.

Riveters Walk Out in Sym- pathy and Help End Trou_ble. ——— = The strike at the Union Iron Works has been er:ded by a compromise and the men will return to work this morning. Conces- slons were made by the employers which were satisfactory to the shipfitters, though not embodying by any means all that they had demanded. The riveters, chippers and calkers, to the number of 200, walked out at noon yes- terday, and for a time there was prospects of a contest which would tie up the ship- yards Indefinitely. There were meetings of the mechanics in the Potrero Opera- house and conferences of the strikers’ committee with the company officials, and more meetings, until a final agreement was reached. The action of the riveters, of which no- tice had been given on Tuesday, caused the first overture to be made by James Dickie, who has been acting as superin- tendent since the accident with which John T. Scott met at the night launching of the Spokane. While the riveters were holding a meeting in the opera-house Mr. Dickie sent word that he desired to see the strikers’ committee. The members went at once to his office, and he stated the concessions which he was authorized to offer. It was that an. agreement be signed and dellvered to the Boilermakers® and Iron Shipbuilders’ Uglon by which the Union Iron Works would be bound to ad- vance no more “handy mep” to the work of shipfitters for a period of one year, they being allowed to retain their positions, with the understanding that they receive romotion within the year. This offer was taken before the public meeting and discussed at some length. Then the Bollermakers’ and Iron Sgln builders’ Union held a meeting and agree to accept the compromise. There was some more parleying, the committee be- ing sent back to Mr. Dickle to try to get the period of the agreement exténded to two years, or elghteen months if two years could not be secured. Mr. Dickle could not grant the additional concession A meeting of the union and the striking shipfitters, and apprentices who are not members of that union, was heid last night in the opera-housé. Bedford Day, district chairman of the union, presided. With xery little discussion it was unani- mously decided to accept the agreement and return to work this morning. The strikers had asked that the “handy men” be put back at the work of common laborers and that no men be employed at | fitting except journeymen fitters and ap. rentices. he concession made is much | ess. but the strikers and the riveters, who walked out in sympathy with them, feel that a partial victory at least has been won, and they are glad that the strike has ended before assuming serious pro- portions.

Preparations are being made at the art gallery of Mechanics' Pavilion for the ex- position of the Industrial and Allled Arts of California, which is to open there Wednesday evening, Aprii 19, under the auspices of the California Club. It will continue ten days, closing Saturday even- mg, April 20. This is the second exposition held by the ciub, the first very successful one having occurred in May, 1899, in the same bullding, and the ladles enter upun the arrangements for this year's exhibi- tian with a fund of experience gained two years ago and with the knowledge that their labors at that time did much to ad- vance the standards, of art and artisan- ship In California and to bring art work- ers nearer to the public. For six months the ciub officials have | been sending throughout the State invita tions to craftsmen and women to enter their products for exhibition and the re- sponse has been so general that it i3 now evident that the exposition of 181 will be fuller and more representative than that of 1399 and that the growth In excel- lence during the two years will be made manifest by the exhibit in almost or quite every line.” A department of fine arts hus been added this year. Besides the attractions of the exhibit there will be dally programmes of enter- tainments. Exhibitors will not be charged an _entrance fee.
