Nine suits for damages for injuries and deaths resulting from the explosion | |on the steamer Progreso Decem- {ber 8, 1802, were filed yester- | day against the Fulton Engineering | and Shipbuilding Works. Willlam Den- | man 1s attorney for seven of the plain- | tiffs, and Sullivan & Sulllvan for two. | The Progreso was moored in the com- | | pany’s yards and was being recon- structed. For the purpose of testing the engines, au oil tank was partly | filled with petroleum for fuel. It is | charged that the ofl was of dangerous | | quality, and that the tank had no ven- | | tlator to carry off the explosive gases. | | Because of this alleged negligence, the | explogion is said to have occurred. 1 The actions by Denman are begun | | for Mary Nelson, widow of Edward W. Nelson, killed, for $20,000; Eleanor | E. Dow, widow of Howard W. -Dow, | killed, for $20,000; Sabina Galiagher, and seven children, of Daniel | Gallagher, killed, $20,000; Hugh McGill, injured, $20,525; Robert E.

Certificate Is Sent For J. J. Cunningham, whose removal as administrator of the estate of Chew Bing Quoia, the deceased Chinese la- bor contractor, is sought, was on the stand In Judge Coffey’s court yes- terday and told of his relations with the Chinaman. He said that he was Quoia’s body guard for three years and later was inter- ested in some of his contracts. He | employed the watchmen for the ships and also the Japanese who were taken | to Alaska with the Chinese coolies. He | declared that Chew Bing Quoia intro- duced Lum Quoia @s his wife. The wit- ness was not, permitted to tell of the financial condition of the estate, but went far enough to say that out of | three contracts they lost $12,000 on two of them. Lum Quoia, the local claimant, testi- fied that she was living with her father | and mcther on Sacrcamento street when she married Quoia. She also said that she was born in this country and | was registered as a resident Chinese, | 5 but that the registry -certificate had | been burnmed. Judge Dibble, altoméy\ for the other side, remarked that the | certificate had not been burned and he would produce it in court. Later, when | he asked for a continuance to Decem- ber 16, he said that he had written to, the Department of Commerce and La- | bor at Washington for the original cer- tificate of Lum Quoia and Ng S8he, who is said to have brought the girl as a slave from China in 1893. Lee Mee Toy, a merchant in China- town, was called to contradict the evi- | dence of Low Doon, brother of Low She, the alleged widow in China. Doon had testified that his sister had not married, and that he did not know | Chew Lum, son of Quoia and Ng She, a “second wife.” Toy declares that Doon | came to him and asked him to balil Chew Lum out of jail, stating at th time that Chew Lum was his ‘‘nephew." This is explained by the Chinese cus- | tom of having the children of secondary | wives call the first wife mother. | Chew Fong testified that he lived in | the same house with Lum Quoia and | Ng She, on Sacramento street, at the time Lum says she was living at home [ with her parents. Thomas 8. Burns, a notary, testified that Lum Quoia had made her mark on | the petition for the appointment of Cunningham as administrator, but he could not fay that she understood its | contents. I | { —_—————— Kicked by a Horse, Wolf Moritz, residing at 147 Har- | riet street, had the bone of his feft leg broke at the knee joint yesterday by a kick from a vicious horse, which he was driving on Harrison street. The injured man was taken to the City and Cpunty Hospital, where Dr. W. M. Lawliér set the broken limb. i James Anderson, who lives in South ' San Francisco, was kicked on the left leg by a horse that was standing in front of a stable on Shipley street yes- terda;” afternoon. His left leg was fractured below the knee. MDr. P. Collischon of Folsom street reduced the fracture. | —_———————— Men will shake your hand if you have money; if you haven't they will shake you.
