THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, JANUARY 3 LINE OF FAST MERCHANT STEAMERS FOR PHILIPPINE TRADE IS ASSURED Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania Are Being Made Ready by the Empire Company at Union Iron Works for This Run, While the Albion Is Being Put in Condition at Mission-Street Wharf | 4 N ONE OF THE SISTER SHIPS THAT WILL PROBABLY GO INTO THE PHILIPPINE TRADE THIS MONTH. THE OHIO, INDIANA AND PENNSYLVANIA WERE FORMERLY CHARTERED TRANSPORTS, BUT NOw THEY WILL RUN AS MERCHANT VESSELS TO THE ISLANDS. OR months past there have been rumors of a merchant line of steamships from this port to Ma- nila. Some people said the Pacific Mail Steamship Company would | put on a fleet and others asserted that a syndicate would purchase the Govern ment transports and run them as an in- | Gependent line. The Pacific Mail is making | no move in the direction of a Philippine service and the transports are here to stay as long as Uncle Sam wants them to carry his soldiers and their belongings to and from the seat of trouble in his latest possession. The line will be established, however, and by the Empire Steamship Company. That concern is acting in conjunction with the persons who purchased the Albion a few days ago. It will put on the run be- tween San Francisco and Manila the steamsfiips Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylva | nia, while the Albion will run in the in- terisland trade. The Ohio, Indiana and Penn: are well known in ghe transport service. They came here e beginning of the | war to enter the Klondike trade, but the United States was then securing every available vessel to carry soldiers to the Philippines, so the steamships were at once chartered. Being very handy craft, they were kept in the interisland service, carrying soldiers and supplies all throug the war. About six months ago they | came back to San Francisco and have | since been laid up at the Union Iron While there the Indiana and Pennsyl- vania have been remodeled. Nearly ail of the cabin accommodations have been removed and new decks put in. The boil ers have been renewed and the refriger- ating plants put in the very best of order. During the war each vessel carried more than 1500 soldiers in an emergency, be- sides 200 cabin passengers. From now on they will only have room for forty cabin passengers -each and no soldiers, all the room being set aside for freight. During the remodeling of the Indiana and Penn- sylvania the Ohio has been used as a boarding-house. The machinists and car- penters and boiler-makers from the works have lived aboard her and at the same time given her an overhauling. The Ohio has not been altered as far as cabin ac- commodations are concerned, and _she will be the passenger vessel of the fleet. The work of getting the Albion ready for the interisland trade i5 now being rushed, and the chances are that as soon as she is ready for her run to Manila the Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania will be ready to begin their trips. All three ves- sels are of the same dimensions, but vary somewhat in tonnage owing to the differ- ence in their fittings. They are 343 feet long, 43 feet beam and 24 feet 9 inches deep.

Upon that theory, proved beyond a doubt, a cure for dandruff was sought after.

Navigation Company’s Columbia, which was ashore in the Columbia last Tuesday, arrived in port yesterday. The passengers never left the vessel and Captain Doran says she was never in any danger. With the as- sistance of the river steamer Harvest Queen, she got off after discharging 300 tons of cargo. The run down the coast was uneventful. Captain Doran said: ‘“We went ashore twenty miles south of Portland and escaped without injury. We ran on to a sandbar and after lighter- | ing some of the cargo we got off. There Wwas no excitement, as there was no dan- ger. The ship is all right.” e Italians Fall Out. Four Italians who own a small rapch at Rio Vista, on the Sacramento, had a falling out on the water front yesterday. They came to the city to sell their es- tate and quarreled over the distribution of the proceeds, Antonio Baroni, think- ing he was getting the worst of the deal at the hands of Fairo Bandoni, drew a pistol and began shooting. Alphonso Pe- tretti rushed in to save Bandoni and was shot in the shoulder. He was taken to the Harbor Hospital, where his wound was dresséd, while Baroni was taken to the Harbor police station and charged with assault to commit murder. ‘Water Front Notes. Capeain Christian Y. Fosen is not going out on the Grace Dollar this trip and Captain Johnson takes his place. Instead Captain Fosen will go out as chief officer of the new steamer Melville Dollar under Captain Gow. In spite of the apparent “Irish raise,” Captain Fosen was the proudest man on the front. He is wear- ing the handsomest gold watch and chain that money could buy and it came from his employers. He is the commodore of the Dollar fleet and Captain Gow is new to the coast. When Mr. Dollar asked him if he would give the new master all the information possible Fosen at once con- sented. Turning to Captain Gow he ask- ed, “Have you a full crew?’ and the an- swer was, “No, I lack a first mate.” “All right,” said Fosen, “I'll ship as first mate and make the run with you.” This spirit cf willingness so pleased Mr. Dollar that the watch and chain presentation fol- lowed.

To Secure Best Talent and Operas for Summer Season. A LB Genial William H. Leahy, business man- ager of the Tivoli, will leave for Italy next week on a mission of supreme im- portance to the patrons of that popular house. It 1s because of his contemplated journey that “Doc” has been studying in secret one of those works the perusal of which wiil enable one to master at a sin- gle breath the intricacies of a foreign tongue, but which in his case has re- sulted in mystifying him more and more as he advanced, until now he sadly con- fesses that his Italian vocabulary is lim- ited to ‘“signore” and ‘‘signora,” with a “si” thrown in for company’s sake. It is the custom of the Tivoli manage- ment to hold a grand opera season each fall at which the latest operas are presented by the great European artists. It is true such stars as Calve, Eames and Sembrich have not yet been seen at the Tivoli, but that is not the fault of the enterprising management. Previous en- gagements alone rendered it impossible for them to close contracts with “Doc,” but in their stead such vocalists as Col- lamarini, Salassa and others have been secured to the delight of the Tivoli pat- rons, whose musical education i{s not a whit inferior to that of the average per- son whom a Grau season at $7 a seat serves to throw into spasms of artistic fervor. It is this disposition of the Tivoli management to give the best for the least money that has contributed so largely to the success and fame of that house and has served to keep the popular taste for the best works of world-famed composers whetted for more. Manager Leahy’s purpose in making the trip to Italy is to secure several vocal stars and the best and latest composi- tions of renowned composers. In explain- ing the objects of his journey to the Old ‘World Manager Leahy said: I shall leave San Francisco in time to catch the Italian steamer Liguria, which leaves New York for Naples on the 16th inst. I shall then make trips to Rome, Milan, Florence and other cities and attend the great theaters of those cities in which the presentation of grand opera is exclusive. My purpose is to hear the best vocallsts and witness the presentation of the best grand operas. In this way I shall be en- abled to secure just such artists and operas as will be suited to the lovers of the best music in San Francisco. I will sign no less than eight singers of both sexes and they shall be the best that money can procure. In Milan I will see Riccordl, the great pub- lisher of operas, and acrange with him for productions of such works as ‘‘La Tosca,” ‘e~ dora,” ‘‘Andre Chenfer” and others of that class. When I have completed my work in Italy I will go to Paris and London. In the English capital I will see George Edwards re- garding numerous light operas which have been produced on the Continent, but never seen here. When I return I expect to be in possession of a musical treasure trove which will delight our patrons for months to come. I expect to return home about March 1. ‘While in Mijlan Manager Leahy will study the architecture and seating plans of its grand opera-houses with a view to- ward incorporating the ideas thus gained in the plans for the new Tivoll which is to be bullt in this city next year. He will also get some jdeas about a Verdi statue, for the erection of which money is now being raised in this city. Alto- gether “Doc” has a big contract on ius hands and it is likely thac he will crowd much activity into his life during the next two months. To Leave for Philippines. The following-named officers have ar- rived in the city en route to the Philip- pines and have been assigned to tempo- rary duty with the casuals at the ~Pre- sidio: Captains—S. W. Dunning, Sixteenth Infan- try, and Albert Laws, Twenty-fourth Infantry; first leutenants—P. M. Shaffer, Thirteenih Infantry; J. A. Baer, Sixth Cavalry, and D. H. Biddle, Fifth Cavalry; second lieutenants—i. E. Gillmore, Fifteenth Infantry; W. R. Tay- ior, Third Cavalry; L. D. Gasser, Twenty-first Infantry; H. L. Evans, Ninth Infantry; G. C Shaw, Thirteenth Infantry; A. L. Briggs, Se: enth Infantry, and R. S. Pike, Twentieth In fantry. —— License on Nickel Machines. The Police Commission sent a communi- cation yesterday to the Board of Super- visors, stating that in its opinion the operation of the so-called nickel-in-the- slot machines, which ordinance No. 78 as- sumes to license, is unlawful, as being prohibited by section 330 of the Penal Code, and that the ordinance is void as being in conflict with the State law.

COMPANY LOSES TS FAANGHISE Bay and Coast Road Corporation Privilege Is Taken Away. The Supervisors’ Street Committee yes- terday reported in favor of the passage of a bill repealing the franchise granted the Bay and Coast Railway Company to enter the city at Twenty-fourth and Ili- nois streets. Action was taken on the report of the Board of Public Works that | the company has failed to comply with the conditions imposed in its charter. The company was required to expend $25,000 in construction work within a period of two years, but_has not done so. The bill providing for the adornment of Van Ness avenue, between Bush and Pine streets, was amended to provide for the construction of granite or cement curbs on the sidewalks, as the Board of ‘Works may determine, and also to state that the project is Intended as an experi- ment and that in case of a general ex- pression of disapproval from Van Ness avenue property owners the board will restore the roadway to its original condi- tion. Joseph Rothschild opposed the improve- ment, contending that it will “villagize” the city to plant trees in the center of streets. Robert Ewing, Charles Acker- man and W. L. Bradbury audressed the committee in favor of the project. Acker- man stated that when Euclid avenue, in Cleveland, was improved in a similar manner property values increased from $30 to $2000 per front foot. James Cavanagh and William Redpath objected to granting permission to the Chutes Company to erect a bridge across Tenth avenue, and the matter went over to allow the committee to visit the prem- ises in comslmy with petitioners and pro- testants. _Charles Ackerman explained that the bridge was a necessity as an additional means of emergency exit from the theater and a safeguard to publie life. On _petition of interested property own- ers the Board of Works was requested to notify Cushing, Wetmore & Co. to dis- charge blasts of less size on Telegraph Hill, so that adjacent property will not be damaged.

Weiss (nee Doud) petitioned the Board of Education at yes- terday’s meeting for a leave of absence for one year from the first day of the spring term. The application was dened, notwithstanding the fact that Mrs. Weiss waived all right to return to her class in the Hamilton Grammar School. No rea- son was assigned for the denial, but it is understood that the lady's recent m: riage has resuited in the loss of her posi- tion. Leaves of absence were ted to Miss Lucretia Burnham, Miss N. F. Sullivan, Miss Mary Sleeper, Mrs. H. J. Bain and Miss E. Livingstone. Abel T. Winn and Miss L. S.

The trial of Ignatz Beck, druggist, Ellis and Buchanan streets, on the charge of tapping the main conduit wire.of the In- dependent Electric Light and Power Com-~ pany in his store with the object of de- frauding the company, was held before a jury in Judge Fritz's court yesterday afternoon. Colonel E. F. Preston con- ducted the prosecution and the defehdant was represented by Attorney Samuels. The principal witness for the prosecu- tion was Seth Cohen, inspector of meters for the company. Last November Cohea examined Beck's premises and after a careful search he discovered that, the compary’s wires had been cut and tapped by two wires that fed thirty-elght in- candescent lights which were not regis- tered at the meter. The connections were made in what was supposed to be a store- room. Beck’s contract with the company called for flve incandescent and two are lights, Cohen was corroborated by G. W. Carroll, another empioye of the company. Wilham G. Pennycook, mspector 1 tae city department of efectricity, testified to having seen on July 3 last about forty incanaescent lignts burning in Beck's store. He asked Butler, the clerk, who had done the job, and Butler repiled “the boss.” Butler was instructed to tell Beck to call at. the office of the depart- ment, but he did not do so. W. R. Hew- | 1tt, chief electrician in the department of electricity, also testified that Beck told him he had done the work himself. Other witnesses examined were Frank Bride- man of the same department, Jesse Mayer and Ward A. Dwight Jr. of-the Independent Company, and George C. Butler, Beck's clerk. Beck brdught some witnesses, among them Policeman Thomson and a speciul officer, to testify that his incandescent lights were put out each night about 9 o'clock and the two arc lights about 10:4 o’clock. Beck testified that he had got an electrictan named Peacock to puc wires in his store for the sake of econ- omy, but denied tapping the wires him- elf ‘or knowing that they were tapped. e admitted in cross-examination that he burned thirty-seven incandescent light. and two arc lights, and when shown that his bills never exceeded $iI per month and were as low as $6 he could not give a satisfactory explanation of his plea of economy. Beck was convicted by the jury, which was out but a short time. is the first case of the sort pros- ecuted by the electric_company. Others suspected of tapping the wires are under surveiliance.
