Wholesale Infantieide

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 27-The EX-
aminer this morning prints statement
of woman named Montrose, who
charges that within period of ten
months, ending last May, forty new
born infants were disposed of in such a
manner by DIR. II. G. Beale, to whom
she rented rooms for a lying-in hospi-
tai, as to convince her they were mur-
dered by him.
Beale, or Haven, as his real name is
given, was arrested last month, charged
with causing the death of a young
woman by criminal operation. II
was shown that he had acquired large
sums by such practice. He was held
for trial in $1,000 bail, which he for
feited and escaped.
The bodies of the infants, Mrs. Mont
rose states, were either thrown into the
bay or cremated by Beales at the othel
quarters occupied by him.

VANCOUVER, b. c., Sept 27-It is
reported today that the steamer EN-

on the 18th, bound for this port, has a
case of Asiatic cholera aboard. In
formation is said to have come by pri-
vate message that the authorities at
Yokohama refused to let the steamer
land. 1t is impossible to verify the
statement. If such proves to be the
case this whole country is subject to in

at Victoria has refused to request the
Canadian Pacific authorities to have all
steerage passengers from Oriental points
placed in quarantine for fourteen days,
whether any disease appears among
them or not, unless he receives special
authority from Ottowa to that effect.

A QUESTION OF MATERIAL

EDITOR HERALD: On my return from
visiting the Tacoma exposition my atten-
tion was called TO an editorial In the
HERALD Of the oath inst, censuring me
for aiTording Mr. Kinghorn opportuni-
ties for the exercise of his conspicuous
talents for pernicious activity
You say, There was absolutely no eX-
cuse for placing on, and much less at the
head Of, a committee having virtual con-
troll of the expenditure Of large amount
Of public money on public works man
who Is mere politician for revenue, who
owns no property, pays no taxes, etc"
The excuse for having Mr.. KinghOrn as
chairman Of the sewer committee Is that
Mr.. Donovan having positively refused 10
serve the city In that capacity, In spite OF
my public and private protestatlons
against his course, another member was
added TO the committee, thus leaving Mr..
KinVhorn the first member and so accord
ing to the usual custom In such cases
chairman Of the committee.
Allow me to remind you, Mr.. Editor,
that as relates to standing committees
Mr.. Kinghorn occupies the same position
now that he did on January nth, 1892
(barring the change caused by Mr.. Dono-
vans action, as noted above). ON that
date you said editOrlally In the HERALD :

Business VS.. Politics

An amusing scene occurred in one of
the New Whatcom stores Monday,
which contains a moral well worthy
the meditation of the other merchants
of the city. A Gust omer was just in the
act of purchasing a certain piece OF
goods, when someone entered the store
and addressing the proprietor, asked
him if he had read Of Weaver's ill
usage while stumping one Of the south
ern states. Yes" was the reply,
and it served him right, too. Such
men as he are detriment to the coun-
try. / know him-was raised near his
home. He's anything in the world for
position-Democrat, Republican, Prohi-
bitionist Greenbacker, by turns" The
customer happened to be Weaverite.
He looked at the merchant in utmost
amaZment for a moment, then gaZed at
the roof Of the building to see If it
wouldn't fall i'm and rebuke such sacri-
lege, then quietly putting the goods he
was about purchase back on the coun-
ter, he made his exit and sought an
other shop at which to supply. his
needs, saying, as he reached the door,
" / could not think of buying goods OF
a man who could tell such whoppers
as that.r 1t is useless to add that the
merchant realizes the force of the
| moral
