Mr. Emery reported that the Har- bor Commissioners will to-day take up plans for the construction of a fine approach to the exhibition hall of the tate Board of Trade from the grand nave of the Ferry building. The plans call for the expenditure of $3000. W. H. Mills reported the completion of the great globe to be exhibited in the San Francisco building at the St. Louis Exposition. This will indicate | the sea routes of travel and will demonstrate the distances by sea be- tween San Francisco and the great seaports of the world by way of the Panama canal. He caused some sur- prise by showing that as most of South ‘America was east of New York, the west end of the Panama canal will, by great circle sailing, be nearer to San Francisco than it will be to Los Angeles. Application for the globe as an attraction in the rooms of | the State Board of Trade after the ex- | position closes was made by Manager Briggs. The application will come be- fore the San Francisco committee hav- ing in charge the making of the ex- hibit at St. Louis. It w ggested by Mr. Emery that a special car be chartered to take the | State Board of Trade party to Modesto to attend the coming irrigation jubilee marking the completion of the Mo- dosto and Turlock irrigation system, to which the board has been invited. A committee was appointed to attend to | the matter. Director 8. F. Booth and Secretary Fletcher reported concerning the ex- cursion of business men to the St. Louis Exposition the State Board of Trade has planned. The special train carrying men will leave this city on May 13. Mr. Booth reported that he would do everything in his power and that he ras working for the success of the excursion. Secretary Fletcher said it might be necessary to run the special | train out in two sections. The sub- ject of the excursion was compara- tively new, but assurances were com- ing in and also applications for accom- modations on the special. He judged that the excursion would prove to be of benefit to the State. The board voted to have Mr. Fletcher go to St. | Louis on the special train to person- | ally conduct the party. A happening of the monthly meet- ing was the introduction of the new | members of the board of directors, | William Haas, S. F. Booth and Harry 4 D. Loveland. Each new director spoke briefly, assuring the board of appre- ciation of the value of the work the board has carried on and promising full and hearty co-operation in all | ways possible. ——————————— Nonsuits Oil Company. A motion for a nonsuit made in the case of the Jacalitas Petroleum Company against the Chicago Crude Oil Company was granted by Judge Hunt yesterday. It was an action to recover $42,282 alleged by the Jaca- litas company to have been lost to the concern through the failure of the de- fendant corporation to carry out an agreement concerning the sale , of properties in Kern County. The jury selected to try the case was discharged and the costs incurred charged to the plaintiff, A BULWER’S DEATH Bernard, whose fame as a| in company | the representative business | ENDS HIS SUIT Dismissed by Consent in the U. ALLEGATION OF FRAUD RGNS s Demise of the Complainant Destroys Evidence That Cannot Be Replaced Now | | Owing to the death of HenPy F. Bul- wer at Boulogne, France, the suit in which he was plaintiff and the Yukon Crude Oil Company, C. S. Benedict, F. | W. Sumner, H. A. Jones, Henry J. | Crocker, Easton, Eldridge & Co., Wen- |dell and George Easton and others | were defendants was dismissed yester- | day in the United States Circuit Court | on stipulation. An affidavit by J. C. | McGarvin, Public Administrator of Los | Angeles County, recited that the com- | plainant died on April 19, 1903, and that | it was deemed for_the best interests of | all parties that the suit should be dis- missed. It was agreed that without | Bulwer’s evidence the suit could not be won. Bulwer alleged in his bill of equity filed August 1, 1902, that in the early part of 1901 he was the owner of 5000 shares of the stock of the Yukon Crude Oil Company and 20,000 shares of Rex Crude Oil Company. These companies were consolidated into a corporation, known as the Union Consolidated | Crude 0Oil Company, and- it was alleged | that by reason of such consolidation ! the shares of the Yukon Crude Oil Company were increased In number 50 per cent and those of the American | Fuel 0Oil Company 20 per cent. Bul- wer received 47,500 shares in the Con- solidated Oil Companies of California in exchange for his holdings in the y original companies. It was alleged that three directors of the Union Consolid- | ated Crude Oil Company and its secre- ! tary, without consent of the stockhold- !ers, “by some illegal and fraudulent | means” transferred to the Consolidat- | ed Oil Companies of California all the franchises and property of the other | companies. | —_——————— SLOT MACHINE LICENSES MUST NOT BE REFUNDED City Attorney Long Advises Board of Supervisors Not to Return Fees Paid in Advance. City Attorney Long vesterday ad- | vised the Board of Supervisors that it | has no legal power to refund license | taxes paid in advance for the quarter ending September 30, 1903, on slot | machines which were ordered out by {the Police Commissioners. The opin- ion sa “It is no\ necessary to the decision of this matter that we should pass upon ,Ahr- question whether, in the event of | the revocation of a cause and before the expiration of the | term for which it is granted, there is {any legal obligation on the part of | the city to refund a proportionate | amount of the tax, since appear in this case that the license has been revoked. On the contrary, it does appear that there was nothing done by the municipality or any of its officers limiting the use and operation of the machines in any part of the city and county other than on such premises as were used for the sale of liquor. And even in such places the , machine eould be used and operated pronded liquors were not sold. | “Whatever might have been the rights of the petitioners, therefore, if their licenses had been revoked, I am | of the opinion that a mere regulation of the exercise of the privilege grant- ed will not confer a rignt to the re-| |turn of the moneys paid. As the Board of Supervisors cannot legally | allow an illegal demand it is without |legal power to refund the ! claimed, and you are so advised.” — e Injunction Suit Argued.

Cireuit Court, license without | it does not | amounts | CHARGE AMUSES THE OFFICIALS BRI Story of Alleged Mistreat- ment of Chinese Visitors to World’s Fair Is Refuted PROVE TO BE COOLIES Mongolians Arrive Without Credentials and Are Com- pelled to Prove Status —gaaii Officials of the United States Immi- grant Bureau at this port were amused ! yesterday on reading a newspaper dis- patch announcing that the Chinese Minister at Washington, D. C., had filed with the State Department a pro- test against the treatment of certain Chinese who had landed here on the way to the exposition at St. Louis. The dispatch represents Chang Yon Tong, secretary of the Chinese World's Fair Commission, as saying: | | My countrymen were subjected to humiliat- ,mg treatinent at San Francisco, where they were held up by the customs officials for two despite the fact that they had sufficient monéy with them to justify the statements that they were reputable citizens of China and not paupers. They also had signed letters from the Amer- ican Consul at Peking, stating their financial and soclal standing in China, but they were forced to furnish a bond in the sum of $500 gold cach before the customs officials would release them. The immigrant officials say that the cases referred to are those of twelve Chinese who arrived on the steamship Doric on February 25, of this year. Eleven came in the steerage and were entered on the ship’s manifest as “of- ficial servants for the Chinese section |at the Louisiana Purchase Exposi- tion.” They had the appearance of | coolies and traveled, ate. slept and | dressed as such. Rule 44 of the regu- lations of the department adopted July | 27, 1903, requires all Chinese persons, | excepting Chinese diplomati¢ officers or | their attendants, to present a certain | prescribed certificate from the Chinese | Government. None of the eleven steer- age passengers exhibited such certi- ficates, but they had letters and other | documents which the immigrant offi- cials are not allowed to recognize. A | report was telegraphed to Washing- | ton, D. C., and pending the arrival of the reply the servants and the cabin rassenger were kept on board the | steamship for four days, at the end of which time they were, with one ex- ception, permitted to land and resume | their journey. The exception was Chin Ah Sheng, who was denied a landing | | because he was afflicted with a loath- some contagious disease. The cabin passenger, in conformity with the regulatidns. was required to | give a bond in the small sum of $500 | as security for his going back to Chind | after the close of the exposition.

Deputy Health Officer Levy gave or- ders to have the feathery disturber removed. A lodging-house keeper complained | that the cheese in a delicate sen s‘ore at 345 McAllister strcot was so odorous that it was driving her lodgers away, as they did not dare open the windows of their rooms. A Health Inspector | was directed to investigate. ———— | VIOLATES CHARTER, BUT SAVES MONEY FOR CITY Printing Committee Awards Book- Binding Contract to Firm That Failed to File Certified Check. The Supervisors’ Printing Commit- tee vesterday awarded a contract for rebinding books for the County Clerk, Auditor and Recorder to Bsown & Power for $113118. J. Kitchen, who bid $1702 49, protested against the award on the ground that the firm had | not filed a certified check.
