The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1892-09-22

Vice Consul, the secretary of the Six Com
panies and from Chan Foo settle at once
and for all time any question as TO the cor
rectnesS of the TRANSACTIONS of the various
proclamationS with reference to the Geary
bill as Issued by the Six Companies and
published exclusively by THE CALL.
In publishing the fac-smlleS OF the proc
lamation The CALL has, of necessity,
given in every case only paragraph of the
document as originally written In Chinese,
To print the proclama ton entire would
have in almost every instance taken half a
page of the paper.
The utmost care has been used in secur-
ing TRANSACTIONS of the documents exciu-
sively published in THE CALI, and the fact
that the secretary of the Six Companies, the
Chinese Vice Consul and Collector Quinn
and his deputies are all using THE CALLS
publications Tor reference and as portions
Of public documents atteSts their correct
ness.
Tine difficulty in handling documents writ
ten in the Chinese language was shown
published the fac-simile Of letter written
in Chinese and sent to M0y jim Nun.
The letter, as printed, Is couched in the
filthiest language imaginable, and while
there are but few white people in the city
who read Chinese those who could were
both surprised and Disguised that any news
paper-even one printing want" notices
for massage girls-would publish matter of
such an obscene character, though written
In Chinese.
The purpOrted translation of the letter
was appended, but it came as near being a
correct translation of the Ten Command
ments as it did of the letter to Moy jim
Mum.
In fact, so obscene was the letter. as 1t
was printed in Chinese, that correct trans
lation of the first ten words OF it would
have subjected the paper that published it
to prosecution by the authorities.
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1892-09-22

The Examiner had an article yesterday
morning headed 1.-TWO Jokes in Chinese"
In that article it was attempted to show that
the news which THE CALL has printed
from day to day of late in reference TO the
Chinese registration is Enthusiastically.
The deadly parallel was used in a wild at
tempt to show that certain TRANSACTIONS
were, to use Examiner slang, bogus"
meaning spurious.
This was done, as is easily seen, TO detract
attention from the very palpable fact that
THE CALL has had all to itself the giving
out Of the important news OF the inter-
national conflict that has arisen over the
Geary registration bill.
The CALL has printed many columns
of most important news on this subject
news that has been taken from its columns
and teegraphed all over the Worthwhile
the other morning papers have been pr &C
tically blank on the subject.
They could not get the news.
That is what is troubling the self-styed
Monarch" That is why it has gone to
such pains to make out that THE CALLS
news was not news, but was cOncocted to
deceive its readers.
But these assertions are absolutely false.
Lively Itilc Vi the VI LIi6
Six Companies and their circulars and
letters was carefully verified before they
went into THE CALL.
Among all unbiased newspaper men in
The city, at the Press Club and elsewhere,
the fact that THE CALL had so signally
beaten the other morning pa pers, and
particularly the very pretenti0us Examiner.
was commented on.
In fact what the newspaper men desg-
mated as The CALLS scoop" of its con-
temporaries was and still is the talk OF the
town.
The first proclamation Issued by the Six
Companies on the subject, which came like
a thunderboalt out of a clear sky and was
the sensation of the hour. was published in
THE CALL on Saturday, the 10th inst.
On that date no other morning paper had
line on the subject
On the following day. Sunday. the 18th,
the Examiner published the proclamation.
Where did it get it?
From the columns of THE CALL.
How can that be proved?
From the fact that the language Is pre-
cisely the same In The CALL of Saturday
and the Examiner of Sunday. The transla-
ton was made expressly for THE CALL
No two tranSlators of Chinese into English,
cOndensing the language as they wrote,
would use the same words.
Then there is the paragraphing, which Is
the same, and the fact that certain repeti-
tions were altered by The CALLS copy
reader and they remain in the Examiner
publication.
This is the way the two articles look
when set side by side:

circus. The officer took him TO the Gen.
trail station. where the services of the
Chinese Interpreter were called into re-

only language he speaks is Chinese.
His appearance is very unlike Chinese
child.
His hair is dark and he has a small queue,
but his complexion is quite fair ana his
features are regular His eyes are Of a
very light brown and not in tie least
almond-shaped. 1t is true that when the
queue was visible there was slight Chinese
cast of features, but il he was dressed in
ordinary clothes and his hair like white
children the Chinese faint would never be
suspected.
The boy gave his name as Sing Wah and
said he lived on jackson street.
Later in the day Police Officer Wells and
Mr.. Holbrook of the Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Children took him
through Chinatown In the hope that he
would show where he lived.
This he could not or would not do, but
kicked and struggled all the time and led
the officers through all the back streets and
alleys in that portion OF town.
Once a wagon, on which viltainous-
looking Chinaman was seated, passed and
the boy appeared greatly frightened and hid
behind the officers. The man drove rapidly
away. As the search was fruitless the boy
was taken to the Youths Directory.
On his wrist was steel chain fastened
with paddock. The boy said his mother

THE SPORTS WERE SCORCHED
Maber's Defeat Cut Deep
Into Many Pockets.
Murphy and Lavigne Will Be Matched by
the California Club-Football and
Cross-Country Runs.

The defeat OF Billy Maber by Billy Smith
OF Boston at Portland on Tuesday evening
was as great surprise to local sporting
men as was the defeat of Sullivan by Cor
bett.
The pool-sellng in this city at one time
was $40 to 81, with Smith on the short end
When the news of Maber's defeat arrived
"the long-enders" were wild, and a general
cry of fake" was raised. kilograms from
Oregon on the day of the battle said that
the Australian wasin tip-top condition and.
bar accident. should win.
Maber either sold out the fight or else he
has proven beyond all possible doubt that
he is back number, and should now take
his place among the pugs who have been
scratched off the pugilistic slate as being
out OF the race.
Billy Smith must certainly have improved
wonderfully In the past year.
1t will be remembered by the patrons Of
local boxing clubs that Maber, when he
was in poor condition. met Kelly in this
city and whipped him easily, coming out of
the mill without scratch.
Billy Smith afterward met Kelly and
fought him battle which lasted we'll into
midnight.
Now Smith whips Maber easily, ac-
cording TO telegraph accounts, and at a
time when the latter was reported as being
In the best condition he ever appeared be-
fore an opponent.
According to the betting 1t would appear
that Maber was whipped on his merits :;
yet there are many local sporting men who
look with strong suspicion on the match.
The California Club was thinking of CIV
ing good purse for Ego" between Maber
and Dawson, but the idea is now knocked
in the head
Billy Murphy the Point Tiburon aquatic
hermit and George Lavigne of Saginaw,
Mich, have been offered purse of $500
by the California Club. and 5000 Is offered
for meeting between Billy Lavlgne and
Dobhs, the colored pug.
Billy Smith may be matched against Billy

time that she put it on 10 cnain him up so
that he could not get away.
His stories do not agree, and some Of
those who have interested themselves in
him think he is an artful dOdger.
A careful search for information was
made at different times on Tuesday and

lie said the bows father was an American,
who lived with a Chinese woman in the
mountains near Sacramento. He described
him as big fat man. but says he has been
dead now over year.
The boys mothers name is Fat Pot, and
she has been in San Francisco about four
months. After the boys father died he
and his mother were taken care of by Chi
naman named Wong kee Meen.
The man who gave the information did
not know where the people lived and a
search is now being made for them.
At the directory the boy made himself
quite at home and ate whatever was set be-
fore him, showing he was accustomed to all
kinds Of food.
He is perfectly healthy, but was very
dirty, and shows not the least sign OF yio-
lence or i'll treatment on any part of bis
body.
The chain around his wrist does not hurt
him in the least, as the flesh is not chafed.
His appearance Indicates that he has been
very well treated, except that he was sadly
