STRIKES AT ENTIRE STATE. “Defeated in this movemept, Dr. Bracken of the State Board of Health of | Minnesota proposed a resolution that | tors be placed on the frontier of Cali- fornia at | by the various railroads entering that State. I opposed that resolution on the ground that for no cause shown the res- | olution sought to quarantine the State of | California. on, as 1 was the chief surgeon of | the Bouthern Pacific, and I replied that I was representing the State of California and that the position I helu with the railroad was entirely an firrelevant mat- ter. “Dr. Simmons of Chgrleston said he was opposed to sending any ultimatum to the State of California. Dr. Fulton of Mary- l2nd said that this conference ought not to ume traffic come through. Dr. Wyman satd that such action would only hamper a fair | | investigation, and that it was not for the conference to dictate to the Secretary of War as to what he should do with the transport service or the soldiers of the nited States. After such expressions as these from such high authority and my own protest that it would be high-handed to quarantine a State under the circum- stances, this matter was postponed indefi- nitely, but I suppose it was provided for end the conference has adjourned. I think I might say that I had a very chilly reception all the way through. I Jook upon the whole business as an out- | rage on the State of California.” All that was done, therefore, was the | venting of the spleen of certaln State | Boards of Health against San Francisco. These hostiles did not hesitate to intro- | Cuce a communication from the State | Board of Ensenada, Mexico, criticizing the alleged “inactivity and suppression of the facts by the city of San Francisco.” It was signed by a Dr. Diego. “JIM” HILL'S HAND IS SEEN. It is evident that the matter of the transports was dragged in through the in- fluence of J. J. Hill and the Boston Steamship Company in order to prostitute the bad enough purposes of the confer- ence to the political ends of Seattle and Hill, Morgan, Winson & Co. Surgeon eral Wyman and Dr. Matthew Gard- ner took jnstant exception to the intro- Guction of such matter, and it went by the Lcard, not because the hostiles did not desire to push it, but because notice was | served that they were introducing inter- municipal politics into the question before the meeting. Dr. Bracken, it may be observed, is from | Minnesota, in' the great Northwest. It Is said that Mr. Harriman had agents here to-day to watch the proceedings.

The | accident occurred at 10 minutes past 3 o'clock, and at 10 minutes to 5 o'clock the unfortunate driver breathed his last.

He was released on 350 ball. ———— ! TROLLEY CAR KILLS LAD. | Little Herbert Gill Is Run Over and Terribly Mangled. | Little ten-year-old Herbert Gill of 131 Sixth avenue was run over and instantly killed last night on SiX¥h avenue, between Lake and California streets, by electric | car No. 716 of the Turk and Eddy street line. The youngster was going home from a | grocery store the corner of Fourth avenue and California street shortly aftee 6 o'clock and, according to Motorman A. M. Lockard, must have been stealing a ride on an inbound car. He jumped from it and ran across the tracks directly in front of Lockard's car, which was out- ward bound. The ground was damp and slippery and it is presumed that the lit- i tle fellow lost his feet and fell to the sround directly in front of the fast ap- | proaching car. | The motorman says that it was dark |and he was proceeding at a good cilp when suddenly on passing the inbound | car he saw something dark stretonea | across his track ahead. Realizing that | it was a human being he reversed the | current and applied the drakes, but to at no avail, for before the heavy car could be brought to a standstill the forward trucks had passed completely over the little body and crushed out its life, mang- ling it-so terribly that recognition was almost impossible. With the assistance of Police Officer A. D. Layne and Conductor H. Greenberg, the car was raised and the mangled form removed from beneath its death dealing wheels. | @i ] watching both the hostility to San Fran- cisco om medical grounds and the machina- | tions of certain doctors who took a hand in the transport matter against the inter- ests of the rallroads entering San Fran- | cisco. At any rate they were routed. It | is too’obvious to need comment that if California were quarantined the Govern- | ment business would go to Seattle. Dr. Gardner asked Surgeon General Wy- man to-day if the Marine Hospital Ser- | vice could take complete charge of the in- vestigation of the alleged plague at San Franelsco. Dr. Wyman replied that he) coild not answer without consulting the ! Secretary of the Treasury and all the laws on the subject. Dr. Gardner will re- main here a day or twi GOVERNOR PARDEE'S VIEWS. City Must Submit to Outrage and Get Clean Bill of Health. | CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Jan. 19.—“So far as the effect upon California” is concerned, it makes difference whether thére is bubonic n Franelsco or mot, so long no plague in that body now in session at Wash- ington believes that plague does exist there and persists in that belief. The ef- | fect will be the same whatever the truth may be, and there is only one course for us to pursue—namgly, to proceed to get a clean bill of health, and that as soon as | possible. | " Thus spoke Governor Pardee to-night in an interview on the report from Washthg- ton of the action of the conference of helth authorities from a number of States. He said much more, but the fore- going quotation is a condensation of his | other statements—the very meat of the cocoanut—and clearly indicates his policy. Governor Pardee had not heard from Washington officially on the subject, but took the press dispatches as giving a true report of what had transpired there. He expects to recelve somie time to-morrow an ofiicfal communication from Dr. Mat- thew Gardner, who represents California | at that conference. Until such official | confirmation Is received no action will be | taken by the State administration. Once it becomes known officially just what must be done, Governor Pardee indicated by his words and manner to-night that he will nog, be slow to act. Of course he could not and would not predict what his ction would be and when asked, whether | in his opinion it would include the re- moval of any members of the State Board of Health he simply replied, “Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof,” and upon that phase of the subject would say no_more. Throughout the interview the Governor never once intimated whether or not, in his opinion, plague exists or has existed in San Francisco. It was not necessary that he should, inasmuch as he takes the ground 4¢hat whatever may be the health conditions there, the State will be obliged to take almost any action which the health authorities of the Government may direct. A most important point is that the Gov- ernor does not believe that the declara- tion made by the convention means necessarily that there will be a quaran- tine. That is but another way of saying that there is no occasion for alarm and an expression of confidence that the State will come out of the ordeal with flying colors, provided the proper course is( pursued. The Governor began his talk with a pointed illustration: “Suppose you lived: in a large house,” said he, “and the health authorities came to that house and declared that you had smallpox within, what would you do? No, you would not demand that the au- thorities prove it. Suppose they sald to you: ‘This place must be cleaned up and fumigated?” What would you say? You would wisely yleld to authority and gay ‘Clean up at once and the more thor- oughly tka better, but whatever you do give me a clean bill of heaith as soon as possible—the sooner the better.’ " Then it was that the Governor used the words quoted heretofore. Continu- ing, he said: “It hag been stated many times that this disease which they call the plague has existed in California for a long time. Dr. Lane, for whose ‘opinion I have the highest regard, has many times declared that he has been treating this disease among the Chinese almost since he came | | o+ | MILK WAGON DRIVER _WHO WAS KILLED BY AN ELEC- TRIC CAR.

O o e e e 2 e e ol to the State, and he has been here since soon after the war. If it be plague—and I do not say that it is—it certainly is not of virulent form and is not a subject for unnecessary alarm. “The body which is now in session in Washington is there by authority of an aect of Congress, which provides that whenever a petition shall be presepted to the surgeon general of the public health and marine hospital service by the health authorities of five States he shall call a conference of the health authori- ties, and it is just such a conference that is now being held. It is not a gpestion of what we may believe. It is for us to take such meas- ures as we may be directed to take. It does not follow as a result of what has already been done that there will be a quarantine. By taking the proper meas- ures that will be avolded and it is for us to take those measures, whatever they may be. “When will action be taken? Certainly not until I have received more informa- tion than that which is in my possession now. No, I have not heard from Dr. Gardner, but know that he will advise me fully and at once. When we know what we must do, then will be time enough lo act, and then we will act.” S——————— RETURNS PRETTY AH LIN TO HER POST’EB.

There is a mystery surrounding Ah Lin, which the guardianship proceedings fnsti- tuted by Kane failed to clear up. Kane! claims that the child is white, while those who had the girl in their care claim that she 1s a half-blood Chinese. A mass of testimony was introduced by both sides tending to prove their contentions, but this was ignored by the court, who held that the proper place for guardianship proceedings is in New York. ¢ Quarrel Over Automobile.

Mrs. Plepenburg claims that she has offered the company one-half of the repair bili, and that they intend disposing of the ma. chine because her husband refuses to pay his €hare of the expense.

Mrs. MeConnell, mother of the injured |1ad, is a constant and faithful watcher at the bedside of her son. She is grief- stricken and watches the boy for hours at a time.
