That Load Is Too Great ST SIS HAMILTON DETAINS HER i gEaly Representation That Vessel Was Unseaworthy Brushed Aside- by Official Report The strange action of the British ship Battle Abbey in taking a cargo of red- wood lumber on board from Eureka and unloading it 4t Long wharf Oakland, has called forth a storm of protests from cus- toms brokers representing the shipping erests of this State, and several of these protests were filed yesterday morn- ing With Acting Customs Collector Wil- lati B. Hamilton. It appears that the | Battic Abbey tcok on a load of green red- wood at Bureka for Australian consum- ers. When the ship put Into this port her master reported to the collector that his vessel was unseaworthy and topheavy by reason of the great weight of the lum- ber stowed between decks, and askéd per- redwood. Mr. Hamilton reported the facts to Wash- ington and permission was given to un- load sufficient of the lumber to lighten the ship 8o as to be seaworthy. But it appears that the master of the ship, after placing the redwood on déck preparatory to unloading, filled the space left vacant between decks with piné lum- ber taken on at Oakland for export to Australia. This of course was allowable 66 | under the departmental regulations, but when Deputy Customs Surveyor St. John examined the vessel he found that 8he was seaworthy with all the redwood and the new load of pine on board. H& there- upon reported the facts yesterday morn- ing to Mr. Hamilton, and upon his report, refused to permit the ship to unlold any of the redwood. A statement of the facts at the same time was transmitted to Washington. ‘This is the first time in tlie history of the port that permission had been given a foreign vessel v ‘unload at one port of the United States cdfgo taken on board from another port of the United States, and the affair has caused considerable comment among intetested parties. Un- less the master of the Battle Abbey shall controvert the report of thie Deputy Sur- veyor he will be obliged to put to sea with the full cargo ¢f pine and redwood.

The controversy without action be- tween Samuel' H. Brooks., ex-City Treasurer, and the city and county in | connection ~ with the dispoesal of $6297 36 collected by Brooks during his tenure of office as commissions on collateral inheritance tax was decided by Judge Cook yesterday in favor of the city._and county. The money, which had | been deposited in court, was ordered to be paid to-the City Treasurer. Brooks claimed that under the act of | 1893 he was entitled to a commission on all collateral inheritance tax col- g | lected by him, but the City and County Attorney contended that Brooks' salary of $4000 was all that he could legally | claim. The matter was submitted on briefs. Brooks may appeal to the Su- premre- Court. ‘Almost coincident with this decision came the formal demand by Mayor. Schmitz upon City Treasurer John E. McDougald to pay into the treasury the sums retained by him as commis- sions on collateral inheritance tax. ——————— Wil Give Children’s Festival.

Supervlsors Committee Ob-| tains Nucleus for Muniei- pal Street-Sweeping Plant ; DIRT WILL BE REMOVED': | Board of Works Authorized to Contract for Many Im- | provements in the Budget | The Supervisors joint Street and Fi-| nance Committee yesterday received a | communication from the Board of Works stating that Alva B. Clute is not prop- erly carrying out his contract to fur- nish wagons to remove street sweepings. The letter says: Asg {t is evident that the contractor furnish- ing wagons to remove sweepings from our streets. under a contract entered into with him by your board, cannot perf vrvperly such work and refuse is accumufating to an offensive extent on a great number of our giweepers are retarded thereby and such streets are becoming more offensive for the et :o!‘ the removal of this refuse: therefors rd would request of your board, as this “cadtoace 1. of your making, that you take thé necessary steps to compel your con- tractor to properiy perform his work so that we may be to properly sweep our streets. The committee received an offer from C. 8. Harney to sell the city nine wagons of a larger capacity than Cluté furnishes for $1850, which offer Braunhart and Con- nor*favored and agreed to pay for the wagons out of the fund for expenses of acquiring public utilities. The com- mittee accepted the offer and the wagons will 'B& "pressed Into service at once, the requisition for the necessary teams to be made by Superintendent Cowden, who thinks that all refuse will be removed from now on. The Board of Works was authorized to entér into a contract with the Spring Valley Company to furnish water for sprinkling at $500 per month. The ¢ommittee agreed to purchase out of thé urgent necessity fund six street sprinkling mnchlnes for $120 from C. S. Hamey, The cbmmittee accepted the offer of the Tallint Banking Company to sell for $11,000 land at the southwest corner of Chestnut and Montgomery streets for the presérvation of Telegraph Hill and re- quested the City Attorney to solicit offers for other lands required for the pur- chase. The Street Committee considered the petition .of the San Francisco Electric Protective Company for a fifty-yéar franchise for a district telegraph and.| messenger sérvice. H. N. Goodall, presi- dent . of .the company, stated that the City Attorney had' decided that a fran- chise must be ' Obtained under the “Broughton act” after a sale thereof to the highest bidder. Braunhart said he | was opposed to granting the franchise because it would drive the established California and American District Mes- | senger cOmpanies out of business, they | having been granted the privilege by | orutnances yrevious to the passage of the Broughton act-and the adoption of the charter. The company’s attorney ar-| gued . that to grant another franchise | would not interfere with the existing | messenger companies, whose privileges are irrevocable. The committee appeared to be Impressed with this argument and instructed the company to prepare a pro- posal notice for the sale of the fran- chise, which, however, will not be. re- garded as being an exclusive privilege. The committee then took the petition un- der. advisement for five weeks, as the Supervisors will take a vacation begin- ning next Monday. The committee authorized the Board of Works to construct a driveway from Ocean avenue near Corbett avenue to the County line: to repair San Bruno, San | Jose, View, Corbett, Point Lobos and Ocean avenues; to oll roads and streets; to build four safety stations on Market street at Taylor, Battery, Montgomery and Grant avenue, and to build a con- venience station on Fifth street near the Idncoln school. The funds for the im- provements have been set asi®: mn the budget. —_—————— BUSINESS MEN INFORMED CHINESE BOYCOTT HAS BEGUN Cablegram Reported to Have Been Re- eelved by Local Firm, but Verifica- tion Is Lacking. A rumor was current yesterday that the Del Monte Milling Company of this city had been notified that a boycott of American goods by the Chinese had actually begun. Inquiry at the offices of the company developed that Chi- nese had told a representative of the company that such was the fact, but ne information had been received of a defi- nite nature that confirmed the rumor. It was noticed by the company that no | order was received by the last steam- ship from China for breakfast foods, which was something unusual, as or- ders-have come forward regularly by other steamships during a period of years. Representatives of the company d nied that they hzd seen a cablegram directing certain purchasing agents not | to buy anything in the Unted States un- til further orders. All knowledge con- cerning the actual existence of such a cablegram was also denied. Foods are the principal articles of exports from this port to China. i Alds Ill-Treated Animals. Stephen Elliott was arrested yester- day by officers of the Soclety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals for driving a horse with a sore back. The society has just issued a new badge to its district oflicers to take the place of the old: one, which too closely re- sembled others of different interests. The annual report has just been re- turned from the printér, showing that the work of the year has been unusu- ally good. —_—————— Says In m Is Defective. A petition for a writ of habeas cor- pus was filed in the Supreme Court vesterday in behalf of Herbert J. Thornburgh, who is dccused of passing | a forged check for $10 on the Crocker- ‘Woolworth Bank. He alleges that the information is defective. The court has taken no action in the case pend- ing a consideration of the prisoner's arguments. ————— lLoses Money in Restaurant Deal. J. A. Munroe obtained a warrant from Police Judge Fritz yesterday for the ar- rest of F. O. Meister on a charge of obtaining money by false pretenses. Munroe alleges that he paid Meister $200 for a half-interest in a restaurant at 1714 ‘Post strcet on the representa- tion that the business showed a profit of $200 per month and was free from debt, which Munroe declares was not true. £ e G G—— Beaten and Robbed by Hoodlums. .
