suppressinr Fan ran,

A war is being made on the fan tan
games in Chinatown, instigated by the
Chinese merchants themselves, who say
that they experience great difficulty in
collecting their debts while the games
are running. A number of Lawson's
patrolmen are now guarding the streets
in front of certain of the games to pre-
vent them from continuing.
1t is said by those who claim to know
that there are some very queer features
in this apparently laudable undertaking.
1t has been known for some time that
money was being put up by some of the
games and not by some of the others.
They have not been interfered with, ex-
cept when they became too open and
fagrant, it being the policy of the present
police administration not to burden the
criminal courts with aimless and useless
efforts at prosecution for this crime. The
money that has been collected went into
the hands of clique of Cinnamon, who
claimed that they used it to
secure immunity for the games that
put up. This would have seemed a
reasonable statement if the other games
had been stopped, but they were as free
from interference as those that paid the
levy. The fact appears to be that the
scheme was nothing more or less than
and it also appears that this
crusade has been made solely for the
purpose of forcing the outside games to
come into the pool.

It Goes East 10 Advertise Los An
geles County.
The San Francisco Cell of last We'd
nesday, in an account of the meetiag of
the Directors of the State Board of
Trade, speaks of the qualification which
was manifested by that organization at
learning that Los Angeles had joined
forces with them in exhibiting the
products of the State in the car travelling
through the East. One of the directors
remarked at the meeting in question that
soon it would be possible to show the
people of the East some of the semi
tropic productions of California, and in
this connection it was admitted that the
exhibit thus far had been of a temperate
rather than a semi-tropic order. This
demonstrates the fact that the exhibit
sent on by this county will occupy
very conspicuous place in the car and at
tract considerable degree of attention.
1t was mentioned in yesterdays
HERALD that some of the fruit had been
donated by Eugene German. The
names of others who have contributed
thus far to help advertise the county are
Joseph Miller of Cahuenga, III. Fuller of
Azusa, III. Jevne and Hervey Lindley OF
this city and the Sierra Vintage Com
pany. Mr.. G. A. Van Alstine collected
the products and helped put them in or
der to be dispatched East. 1t is of the
highest Importance that an interest
should be taken by fruit-growers in this
exhibit, and that the Chamber should be
supplied with plenty of materials with
which to continue the advertising of the
section

day-Pullman's Cars.
On important meeting of coast railroad
men was held in San Francisco yester-
day morning to decide what was to be
done regarding the second-clas5 tourist
business. AS result, the following dis
patch was received here soon after noon
by Mr.. J. B. Quigley, of the Burlington
road, from Coast Agent W. D. Sanborn:
''After April 1st we will not run free
excursions west of Ogden. Regular
Pullman rates to Ogden will be charged
by our road-free berths beyond that
point. Copy of agreement arrived at
will be mailed to you to-day"
This effectually disposes of the free
tourist berth service out of Southern Cali
fornia, the party which will be sent out
of here on the 28th inst. by the Burling-
ton route being the last of the old
regime. All of the complications which
have arisen since Pullman bought up the
tourist cars on most of the Western
roads will also be done away with, and
the result will certainly be an improve
ment all around. The lines at present
holding out against the Pullman berth
rates to excursion passengers are the
Burlington, Rock Island, Denver and Rio
Grande, Chicago and Alton, Union Pa
cific and Walters, but their tether will
come to an end with the present month.
From and after April LIST, therefore, Sec
ond-class passengers to Eastern points
must in addition to their tickets pur-
chase berth checks, but on account of
the Burlington and Rock Island roads
running via the Denver & Rio Grande,
and therefore not having to pay the
Pullman rates beyond Ogden, all of the
lines will make an uniform charge on ex-
cursion days of 81 for berths to all points
East.
The first of the new tourist cars which
Pullman has built for the California
second-class business was in the Wolf
skill depot on Wednesday evening, and
went out with the Phillips Union Pacific
party. Outwardly it presents much
more attractive appearance than the old
style of car, being handsomely painted
and paneled, the name pullman" ap-
pearing in bold letters. Within
are comfortable berths, carpet
ing, stoves, dining-rooms and beds,
the linen of which is changed
every day, 30 a second-class passenger
can now cross the continent in good solid
comfort. 1t will be further incentive
to travel, without doubt, and as several
of the excursion agents have announced
their Intention of remaining in the busi-
ness, the liberal advertising which this
section has received at their hands will
