They blew open the safe and tdok $54190 from an inside box. The only thing they left behind was an old sledge hammer. ‘When W. F. Bemiss, manager at the headquarters, opened the place about 6 o'clock yesterday morning he was not long in discovering that cracksmen nad been there during the night. The safe had been moved from its usual position to behind a partition, where it could not be seen from the outside. The combifation had been knocked off by a blow from the sledge hammer and charges of powder and a fuse inserted. It had taken four explosions to blow the door off. Mrs. A. Miller, who lives next door, said she heard, at least tbree explosions during the night, about fifteen minutes elapsing between each. Z Bemiss notified the police, and Detec- tives Whitaker and Ben, who were om duty at police headquarters, made an in- vestigation. They found that entrance had been effected by going through a vacant lot on Minna street, climbing a fence to the top of a shed and opening a window on the second story. The cracks- men had made their escape in the same manner. There is usually a watchman on duty, but he was not about that night, and the cracksmen, the police think, hndl been aware of the fact. Detectives Wren and Regan were later detailed on the case. They came to the conclusion that it was the work of ama- teurs who were familiar with the interior of the building. The police are working on that theory. About eight months ago Charles Har- ris, a member of one of the unions, was arrested by Detectives Regan ond O'Con- nell on a charge of burglary for break- ing into the headquarters of the council and stealing a typewriting machine and other articles. He is now serving a term of five years. MANY ATTEND HARRY GATES FUNERAL Stage Folk and Patrons of 0ld Tivoli Honor the Dead Singer. The funeral services held yesterday aft- ernoon over the body of Harry Gates, the favorite tenor of the olden days at the Tivoli, who died last Wednesday from the effects of a genera! breakdown, were fit- ting to the kindly lfe which the noted singer had led during his entire career. In the little chapel at Halsted's under- taking parlors were gathered about the bler many of the actor folk, some of them rétired now, who had played with him in comic opera in the '80’s. There were also gathered many of the old patrons of the Tivoli who had been charmed in the past by the sweetnes of Harry Gates’ rich tenor voice. Simplicity marked the service. Rev. Ce- cil Marrack of St. Stephen's Episcopal Church read the Episcopal service. A quartet of Tivoli male singers softly sang “Abide With Me.” The tenor was Ar- thur Mesmer, an old friend of Harry Gates and the latter's successor for many vears in comic opera. Marcel Perron, an- other old friend of Harry Gates, also sang in the quartet. Among the old actor friends of Harry Gates who were present were Richard Va- lerga, Carrie Pfeiffer, Mrs. E.' Knight, Etta Poole, Edith Wordthorpe, Ethel Avery, Gretchen Hauser, Mrs. Pozzesi, Mr. Versin, Abe Hoffman and Alphonse Luttringer. Miss Marfe Howe sent a| beautiful cross of violets. Many mem- | bers of the present stock companies of the city were also present. LORING IS ARRESTED AS HE LEAVES COURT Man Fighting for Children Is Accused of Em- bezzlement. Just after leaving Judge Coffey’s court- room yesterday morning, where he went to secure a stay of proceedings in the matter of the petition of J. White, secretary of the Society fofthe Preven- tion of Cruelty to Children, for letters of guardianship over his two little daugh- ters, Waiter G. Loring was arrested on a charge that he embezzied $70 from W. H. Taylor, manager of the San Francisco Parcel Delivery Company of 22 Fifth street. Loring, who was formerly em- ployed by the delivery company, was bcoked at the City Hall station and re- leased on bail. - Secretary White alleges that Loring's mode of life is such that he is not a proper person to bave the custody of his little ones—Ruth and Beulah, four and a half and two and a half years of age, Te- spectively. The tots are temporarily in the custody of White, their care being intrusted to the Doctor's Daughters. Their mother, Mrs. Mattie Loring, dled on December 27 last. Loring asked yes- terday that the case go over until such time as he could arrange to contest the petition, so Judge Coffey continued the case until the 22d Inst. In the Divorce Court. Margaret Lathrope filed suit for di- vorce yesterday against Robert La- thrope, proprietor of a coal yard at 407 Hyde street. Mrs. Lathrope alleges that her husband has treated - her cruelly. - She asks that he be restrained from disposing of his property pending the outcome of the suit. Suits for di- vorce were also filed vyesterday by Florence against Albert J. Haufe for failure to provide, Mary against Peter Eriksen for cruelty, Walter 1. against Dorothy Trobbold for crueity, and Eva against Willlam A. O'Connor for deser- tion. Decrees of divorce were granted yesterday to Sarah from ‘William Lang- lands for failure to provide. and to Laura B. from Edward failure to provide. —————— Caught In Trick. Customs Collector Stratton yesterday “held up” a consignment of soap sam- ples from a firm in Japan to Domoto, a Japanese merchant in this city. TM soaps are labeled in imitiation of trade- marks of American and French Mflr?mv‘ :;n- N HOT WM[H Chinese Minister at the Capital Complains of the Railroading Incident COURT’S ORDER BALKED Deported Immigrants May Be Stopped at Honolulu and Returned to This City Much agitation prevails in Chinese quarters over the alleged “railroading™ to China of Li Wah, Ng Shi and GI Yok by Charles Mehan, inspector in charge of the Chinese Bureau. The Chinese Consul at this port has taken up the matter and sent a lengthy message by wire to the Chinese Minister at Wash- ington, requesting him to lay the facts before the State Department and the Department of Commeérce and Labor. Marshall B. Weodworth, who is asso- ciated with O. P. Stidger in the case, also sent a telegram of complaint to Secretary Metcalf. The result of these communications thus far was the receipt yesterday by Mehan of a curt query from Frank P. Sergeant, Commissioner of Immigra- tion, as to what ‘he had done in the matter. Woodworth made’ a searching inves- tigation on his own account yesterday and learned that after the steamship officials had expressed their willing- ness and readiness to comply with the order of Judge de Haven and place the Chinese in the detention shed, Mehan demanded of them peremptorily that they should carry out the order of de- portation, notwithstanding the order of Judge de Haven. This information Is flatly contradictory of Mehan's state- ment that he knew nothing of the order of the court. To add to the hardship of the sudden deportation of these immigrants after they had been granted permission by Judge de Haven to take an apoeal to the United States Circuit Court of Ap- peals, they were sent away before their friends could provide them with money or even a change of clothing. Wood- worth has joined with the steamship officials in asking Secretary Metcalf to have the Chinese stopped at Honolulu | and returned to this city, and it is be- lleved that his recommendation will be carried out. —_—————— DEMOCRATIC STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE MAY MEET EARLY Timothy Spellacy, the Chairman, Pro- of the Timothy Spellacy of Bakersfleld, chairman of the Democratic State Cen- tral Committee, was at the Palace Hotel last evening. He inclines to the opin- jon that an early conference of Demo- cratic leaders will take place in order to discuss the advisability of calling a general meeting of the State Committee in March or Apfil. Some of the party workers advise delay in order to note the proceedings of the Public Owner- ship advocates, but the trend of senti- ment in the Democratic camp favors immediate action. According to the present outlook there will be six State conventions this year to be held respectively by the Re- publican, Democratic, Union Labor, Public Ownership, ‘Prohibition and So- eialistic parties. P. H. McCarthy, who has been appointed by Mayor Schmitz to the position of leader of the Union Labor party, is now in the fleld organ- izing his forces for a State campaign. The haste of Hearst in calling for a mass convention at Fresno on Febru- ary 22 of all citizens in favor of public ownership of transportation lines per- haps impelled Schmitz and McCarthy to cement the Union Labor ranks against the advance of the ownership promot- ers. ——— HYNES A DEFENDA Suit was filed yesterday against ex-Public Administrator Hynes by M. Lucette Moore to recover $76, the alleged value of paintings and screens which the plaintiff says she deposited with Edward Lotz, deceased, wkose estate _was taken in charge by Hynes. The plaintift as- serts that Lotz did not pay for the goods and as the Public Administrator disposed of them in the process of probating decedent’s estate the court is asked to direct that he pay their full value to the owner.
