The raid was made by the District Attorney; Al McCabe, his chief clerk, and Detectives Taylor, Mulcahey and Freel. Warrants had previously been procured from Po- lice Judge Cabaniss, sworn out by H. J. Waters. When the District Attorney read the article in The Call he sent Waters and L. E. Schieffel to the place to see what really was going on. They went through the regular routine of seelng the dance by the girl in blue and were then requested to step Into a rear room while the dancer prepared for another performance. While they were waiting was on the principle of roulette, but there was a joker in a “Jackpot.” ‘Waters, who is an old newspaper man and was employed as an expert by the last Grand Jury, and Schieffel reported their experience to Langdon and he asked the assistance of the Police De- partment in raiding the place. Detec- tives Taylor, Mulcahey and Freel were detailed by Chief Dinan and they, with Langdon, McCabe, Waters and Schieffel, reached the place about 3 o’clock yes- terday afternoon. As soon as they made their appearance the inmates made a wild break for liberty, but they found the cxits guarded. Mike Golden, the manager of the place, was dragged fromy under a counter by Detective Mul- cahey. Including Golden there were seventeen men arrested -and the two women, The paraphernalia was also seized. The names given by the men were Edward Kline, Charles Duff, John Rich- ards, Jay Reese, Charles Sanford, Fred Willlams, Fred Saunders, John Conley, Gus Roller, Richard Holst, Robert Thomson, Bert Leggett, George Cross, Richard Hill, James W.

A resolution was unanimously adopted replying to Presiddnt Roosevelt's ad- dress to the American Federation of Labor and scoring the President in his effort to ‘belittle the Chinese question. Another was adopted asking that Con- gress pass a law to prevent the present influx of Japanese laborers from the Hawalian Islands, ‘who come here to work upon contracts which were In reality made before the men left Japan. The resolution replying to President Roosevelt 1s.as follows: “Whereas, President Roosevelt, In his Teply to ‘the memorial recently pri sented to him by the American Federa- tion of Labor, referring to the subject tlons of the Chinese exclusion act would result in admitting to the United States conslderable numbers of Chinese now excluded by the present law, said: “‘There s no appreciable influx of Chinese laborers, and there is not the slightest or most remote danger of any. The whole scare that has been worked upson' the subject is a“pure chimera. It is my deep conviction that we must keep out of this country every Chinese laborer, skilled' or ' unskilled—every Chinese of the coolle class. This is what the proposed law will do. It will be done as effectively as under the present law, and the present law is be- ing handled with the utmost efficiency. But I will do everything in my power to make easy and desirable for the Chi- nese of the business ands professional classes, the Chinese travelers and stu- dents, to come here, and I will do all I can to secure their good treatment when they come, and no laboring man has anything to fear from that pol- icy; therefore be it ‘“Resolved, by the Japanese and Ko- rean Exclusion League of San Fran- cisco, that, while we recognize the sub- stantial correctness of the statement regarding- the decrease in the number the passage of the proposed ‘modifica- tion' legislation, and declare our con- States—is due primarily, and indeed solely. to the exclusion laws and the effective enforcement thereof: further “Resolved, That we deplore the senti- ment and language of the President, in- - NewEaster Suits Large and varied aSsortment of new models in such fashionable colors as lavender, rose, reseda, white, pearl, gray and pretty gray mixtures. $25.00 to $75.00 HANDSOME EVENING COATS, in tans, light blue, gray and white. $30.00 to $100.00 WHITE SKIRTS, new styles, in Panama, mohair and serge. $750, $9, $10, $11, $1250 Spring Hosiery and Underwear FINE BLACK LISLE THREAD LADIES’ HOSE, neatly embroidered designs in red, pink, blue and white. 50c and 75¢ pair " LADIES’ SILK LISLE HOSE, double soles and toes, in'all the latest colorings to match dress, 50c pair Children’s natural Milan and | combined.
