Police Judge Issues Warning to the Boy cotters. BY JAMES C. CRAWFORD. Perhaps it was in sympathetic emula- | tion of their fatherland’s boycott on | United States mercantile imports that the | pigtailed residents of San Francisco open- | lysresented the invasiop of Chinatown by | an American dealer in men’s furnishing | goods. But whatever - the inspiration or | the prompting may have been, no sooner was the shop at 816 Dupont street thrown | open for business than its Caucasian pro- prietor was subjected to annoyance by | crowds of blue-bloused Celestials blocking | the sidewalk fronting his premises and hooting derisively at him when he ap- peared at the dooy. It was in response to NAW.

The officer told Police Judge Mogan that Yam Ling was one of a throng that stood {in front of the white man's store and jeered its proprietor and all persons who exhibited symptoms of intent to purchase his wares. Indeed, the scene reminded the officer of the old days when “pickets” congregated and chided folk who entered restaurants under the union labor ban. In rather good English, dellvered flu- | ently, Yam Ling informed the court that | he was not concerned in any organized movement to discourage the establishment | of American business enterprises -in the | Chinese quarter. He just happened to be | passing by the crowd and had halted to ascertain the cause of its being when he roughly commanded to ‘“keep on | traveling” by the complaining officer. Be- ing unaccustomed to discourteous treat- ment, he entered mild expostulation and was arrested. “What is your politics?’ the Judge in- | quired. 0 shabbee ploltics,” was the reply. re you a Democrat?” No, shah—I'm Chinee-man!” He was dismissed, with a request that he notify his fellow countrymen of the court’s intention to severely punish any of them who may be arrested for pro- moting Ameriean exclusion from China- town’'s business district. . wie Harry Fremont, arrested for speeding | his automobile on a driveway in Golden Gate Park from which the chug-chug | wagon is excluded by ordinance, pleaded 1that he did not know he was on the wrong sroad. | “Ana yet your name is Fremont!” ex- claimed his Honor Judge Cabaniss. “Your {llustrious namesake galned His sobriquet of ‘The Pathfinder’ by his abil- ity to select the right road over strange desert wilds and through mountain fast- nesses. Well has the poet said, ‘What's in & name!" " Then dismissal was ordered. R While the local Afro-American col- ony was looking forward with interest to the marriage of Miss Louise Chat- man of 12 John street and Mr. John Clayborn, second steward of the steam- | ship Sgnta Rosa, the young woman spent her savings, $124, in the furnish- ing of a modest flat at 6 Tay street, where she expected to settle down to housekeeping immediately after the wedding. With the marital nest thus provided, she accepted service as a lady’'s maid and patlently awaited the day when her flance would 12ad her to the altar. That was the situation when Mr. Clayborn returned from a voyage and hastened to find his betrothed, but after searching high and low and ufon the level, he gave up the quest as futlle, and, imagining that she had repented of her engagement to him, and was staying in concealment until . duty called him back to the sea, he sum- moned a furniture broker and disposed of the household goods contained in the flat. But no sooner were the goods re- moved from the flat than Miss Chatman went there to feast her eyes on them. Her astonishment and chagrin need not be described. “He bruk up dat happy 1lil home,” she Mr. Clayborn was accused of felony em- bezzlement. “Ah jes thought mah heart ‘d break w'en Ah entered dat yah flat en foun’ it em’y. “De fack am, Jedge,” the defendant pleaded, “Ah 'magined she'd skipped fo’ good, en Ah didn’t see no use ob keepin’ dat furnichur dah en payin’ rent fo’ nuffin’.

It was the abrupt entrance of spring, they explained, that imbued them: with such exuberance of spirit. Had they been drinking ere they serenaded the March moon and tripped with naked feet a mer- ry measure upon the cold sidewalk? Yes, they had, else they would not have be- haved in such a ridiculous manner, spring or*no spring. With souls cheered by the perfect evening, they imbibed bad beer to excess, and their night's imprisonment had filled them with penitence and deter- mination to never welcome the vernal sea- son in such a way again. “Be grateful;”” quoth his Honor, “that the meteorological influences which led you to awaken sleeping citizens algo served to restrain them frem unloading shotguns. Had not Queen ‘Luna been in such full glory when I saw you from my chamber window the reproof then ad- dressed to you would surely have been more emphatic.

B August Becker, barber at 2853 Mission strect, was shaving a customer when a crash emanating from the #ldewalk front- ing the shop caused the mian in the chair to start so violentdy that he narrowly missed losing a portion of the nose which the tonsor held between his left-hand |-thumb and forefinger while he utilized his right #land to gulde the razor. “Id’s dose tam poys agaen,” Mr. Becker explained to his nervous patron. “Dey’'ve kinocked down mine signpoard, vich shtands oop ven aloan dey leds id. Blease von minit vald und gop agaen I'll sed id.” He was engaged in lifting the prostrate signboard when Masters Otto Christian- son and Robert Sparr, with innocence de- picted upon thelr 16-year-old faces, strolled to hig side and inquired if they could be of any aid to him: He spurned their offer and accused them of being the authors of his annoyance, and when they denied the accusation he repeated it and added a threat, whereupon Master Chris- tianson’s right arm sharply swung back- ward, with evident intent to shoot forward again with Mr. Becker's face as an ob- Jective. But the elbow struck one of Master Sparr’s eves with such force as to blacken that member, and Master Sparr very promptly retaliated by blackening one of Master Christianson’s eyes. The lads were clinched and punching when a policeman arrested them for peace disturbance. Mr. Becker appeared before Judge Ca- baniss and told the story as it is given above, and his alleged persecutors were placed under bond to keep the peace to- ward him and all other persons. « o John Mumford, chauffeur, was dismissed on the charge of having driven at exces- sive speed an automeblle containing James D. Phelan, President 8. G. Murphy of the First National Bank, Thomas Bar- bour of the Risdon Iron Works, David Oakes of New York and Enrique Grau, the Peruvian Consul. The load of distinc- tion was being whisked along the great highway at a fifty-mile-an-hour elip when Patrolman Guest overhauled the chauf- feur, but when it was explained that the gentlemen were hastening to witness how the moonlight affected the appearance of President Murphy’s Dutch windmill in Golden Gate Park, Judge Mogan acted with appropriate leniency. STRANO PLEADS GUILTY TO CHARGE OF MANSLAUGHTER i ————— Last of the Trio Accused of Joseph Brogndoe’s Murder Obviates a Tria) Before Jury. Salvatore Strano appeared before Judge Cook yesterday for trial on a charge of murder. By consent he was allowed to plead-guilty to a charge of manslaughter and will be sentenced on March 17. Strano was one of a trio charged with the murder of Joseph Brogado,éa fisherman, on Vandewater = street on The other two’were Angelo Napoli and Ancio Brissile. Napoli was tried and convicted of manslaughter and- sen- tenced to serve seventeen years in San Quentin. Brissile was also convicted of manslaughter, and ' yesterday his sentence was continued till March 17. Several lians had been drinking on the night of the murder in the bar- ber shop of Pietro Rala, Mason and Francisco streets, and a fight was start- ed. Brogado ran‘out of the shop and was pursued by several men and shot down as he wag nearing his home. It was alleged at the time.that Brogado was a victim, of the Mafia. Napoll and Strano were friends of Pietro Tor- turici, the slayer of Biagio Vilardo, who has not. yet been captured. ——— On a vacation or on business, go right.

WREDEN IND PARR N kRO Fire Commissioners Engage in Wordy Warfare Over Pensioning of the Widow of Heroic Fireman Peralta ELECTRIC DIALOGUE WITH HONORS EVEN Washing of Political Linen Is Done Incidentally and the Names' of the Mayor and Chief Are Invoked e Qe The granting of a pension to Susie Per- alta, the widow of John B. Peralta, a fireman killed instantly at a fire in 1863, caused an open rupture in the Board of Fire Commissioners yesterday afternoon between President Wreden and Commis- sioner Parry. Retort followed retort, po- litical dirty linen was washed, and for a time It looked as though the men would come to blows. . According to President Wreden it was not Parry’s desire so much to retard the granting of the widow’s pension as to “do dirty work” against him. He maintained that Mayor Schmitz had given his assent to a violation of the charter, and that he (Wreden), Commissioner Parry and Chief Sullivan had agreed to see the thing. through. When it came to a vote upon the proposition Parry balked and Wreden became wrathy. “I want to do something for this lady,” declared Commissioner Parry, “but want to grant the money so that it may not be taken from her."” “If you want to do something,” inter- Jjected Chief Sullivan, *do it now.” “‘Yes, that's the talk,” echoed Wreden. “You know we went to the Mayor and he sald ‘Go ahead.’ And I told you I knew it wasn’t right, but that I had the nerve to see It through and that I was willing to take a ‘deal’ from the public and the papers. But you come here and try to give me ‘the Johniy,’ do you?” “I am not going to be dictated to by any one,” roared Parry. ‘“And if any one wants personal trouble they may have it any time." “I'm ready for trouble whenever you are,” retorted Wréden. “Go right to it. You agreed to this before the Mayor, and now you come here to give me the double cross. Yow're trying to hand us some- thing we're not goin’ to wait for. You didn’t say then that you were going to ‘throw’ me, . “Since that time—'" began Parry. ‘Since that time,” cried Wreden in a passion, “you've been doing- dirty work. You'd do it yet if Chief Sullivan hadn’t called you down. ‘But we're open and above-board and cur hands are clean. I contended from the very beginning that she’s not entitled to a fon, but that it is only one particular and peculiar case, and If any one is mean enough to go to the Auditor to stop it let him do so.” Peralta was instantly killed at a fire on Fourth and King streets on October 11, 1883. At that time Mrs. Peralta falled to put in a claim for a pension, although under the charter she has not lost her right to such claim by the failure. She made application for the pensjon to date from March 1. Parry’s objection to the grant was that the pension should date from the time of the accident. Also that, as the board was unable to grant the amount, appeal should be made to the Board of Supervisors. The pension was granted with the pro- viso that the widow waives all claim to back pension, Commissioner Parry voting against the allowance. Pensions were also granted to the widows of Captain Dakin and Hoseman Hennessy of the de- partment. The board was duly notified of the re- ceipt of a check by Chief Sullivan for $6000 in recognition of the intrepid work of himself and his men at the fire occur- ring at the Jessie street plant of the San Francisco Gas and Electric Works. The money will be applied to the Mutual Ald Association of the department. Lieutenant J. Conlon of Engine 4 was reprimanded for bringing women into the dormitory.
