New Whatoom Council Calls For Qua
antine Against Canada

New Whatoom Council Calls For Quar-.
antine Against Canada
The New Whatcom city council. al
its last meeting, passed a resolution call.
ing for quarantine stations on the Ca.
madam boundary, as precaution
against cholera. With trains running
here daily from Montreal, and the
negligence Of the Canadian authorities.
there is probably as much danger of
cholera entering here as in New York
Following is the resolution
WHEAEAS, The scOurge of cholera is
epidemic IN some of the. cities Of Eu-
rope and seems to be on the increase
and from the constant communication
and immense emigration from said
cities to this country, and the neglect
OF some of the Canadian provinces to
properly quarantine against said epi-
demic, 1t becomes absolutely necessary
that the cities bordering ON the Cana
dian boundary take definite and de-
clded action to prevent the introduce
ton of said epidemic into our county:
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the mayor of the city
of New Whatcom be and is hereby aIi-
thorized to confer with and urge the
proper authorities to take immediate
action with a view of establishing quar-
antine stations both at the cities of
Blaine and Sumas to entirely prohibit
passengers coming by way of the Cana
dian Pacific railroad from entering the
United States until subsidence of the
epidemic.

A VERDICT FOR THE CITY
Marshal Mcintosh Successful
Prosecution of the Picnic
Beer Case
New Whatcom Council De-
mands Quarantine Against
Cholera
Meeting of the School Board---
Superior Court Pro-
ceedings

City Marshal Mcintosh has added
fresh laurels to his administration by
having secured a verdict against the
defendant in the case of the CITY of
New Whatcom VS.. A. Weise, for sell
ing malt liquors at the German picnic.
When Attorney Farnham refused to
prosecute the case further, owing to
Judge Williams allowing a jury to be
called, the city marshal took up the
gauntlet and waged the battle to a sue
cessful issue in behalf of the city. The
amusing part of the matter now comes
to the surface in that the defendant,
who placed all of his hopes on the Jury,
claims that it was illegal for the Justice
to allow a jury to be empanelled, and
he is now making an effort to have the
verdict set aside on the ground of its ir.
regularity. Judge Williams has the
case still under advisement, and has
not as yet assessed the fine and costs.

AN ALLEY COMBAT.

Mrs. Thomas and Mrs. Jordan Resort
to the Last Argument of Kings.
Annie Thomas was tried before Judge
Cravens yesterday for the battery of Mrs.
Jordan. Both women are heavy-weights
and live in the precinct bounded by NJ
and y, Third and Fourth streets.
There We're a number Of witnesses.
and considerable variagated testimony
was given, which established conclu-
sively that Mrs. Thomas and Mrs. Jor-
dan, the combined weight of whom
would tip the beam at near 400 pounds,
had been making things lively over their
way. As near as the facts could be
CLEANED from the testimony, Mrs. Jordan
had been drinking and wanted Mrs.
Thomas to go for more beer, and Mrs.
Thomas wouldn't do it.
Then Mrs. Jordan villifed Mrs.
Ihomas, Mrs. Thomas returned the fire,
the pair of them met in battle array in
the backyard, and people over in that re-
gIon thought there was an earthquake.
But there was no earthquake it was
only Mrs. Thomas and Mrs. Jordan.
Mrs. Thomas hauled Mrs. Jordan over
picket-fence, and then, in the moment
OF triumph, the victorious Mrs. Thomas
fell, with a dull thud. When Mrs.
Thomas fell Mrs. Jordan was coming, in
1ull career, over the fence. She lighted on
Mrs. Thomas, and of course both of them
received a shock-so did the earth.
After the supposed earthquake man
appeared-presumably Mrs. Thomas
husband-and he endeavored to get his
better and larger half back over the
fence and into her own yard, but he
wasn't equal to the effort.
About the time he had elevated his
spouse 10 the proper altitude, instead of
easing her over the line of upright pick
cts, he dropped Mrs. Thomas. This,
said the witness, smashed the fence. and
1t made all the folks madden and madder
And so Mrs. Jordan had Mrs. Thomas
arrested, and the case crops up in print.
Mrs. Thomas cross-eXamined Mrs.
Jordan in court, Mrs. Jordan talked
back, and City Attorney Hart tried to
maintain decorum, while Bailiff Clark
began to clear the main deck for active
duty.
At an imminent crisis in the case Judge
Cravens assumed command and pro-
nounced his verdict of guilty. He fined
Mrs. Thomas $40, and the principals
withdrew in quest ofsome of the witnesses
who had moved off out Of range as soon
as possible.

CHINESE METHODS.
Intimidation and BIackmaiI Carried
on Openly.
The Story Told by a Prisoner in the
City JaiI-How Testimony is
Bought and Sold.

One of the Chinese in the City JAIL
charged with completely in the high
binder shooting affray and murders,
wishe and interview with reporter
yesterday. When afforded the oppor-
tunity the Chinaman came to the outer
iron door of the corridor, and in very
good English told the following tale,
which he related with evident sincerity.
He said he thought the papers ought to
know that two or three of the leading
highbinders are working these murder
cases, and procuring and sending away
witnesses with the sole purpose of max
ing money out of them. A Chinaman
known to be one of the smoothest Of the
slippery crew, named Fong Ah Ling, has
been visiting the Jail constantly, and I'M
der various preteXts obtains interviews
with the prisoners.
Yesterday, according TO the man inter
viewed, Fong All Ling called at the iail
with the object OF leVying an assessment.
He interviewed Louey Toon, one of the
highbinderS now under examination for
murder, and told him to make the fol-
lowing proposition to Lee Him, the lat
ter being also a prisoner and evidently
one OF the leading men of the Bing Kong
Tong crew IN san francisco:
Fong All Ling said that if Lee Him
would pay 500 each for the six men
now confined in the City Jail, both COM
panies-the Bing Kong Tongs and the
Chez Kong Tongs-would see that no
witnesses were produced by the prose-
cution.
The man interviewed stated that Lee
Him is the man who has money, or
means of obtaining it from San Fran
cisco, and If he will furnish the 5000 moth
ing further will be done toward prosecut-
ing the six men now in jail In other
words, the highbinders of both clans will
unite in doing away with the witnesses
in the cases, and hush the matter up.
1t is probable that in this way the whole
business will yet be squared" The
Chinaman quoted says the willy Fong An
Ling is working hard to that end. and
that he is using the courts TO aid him in
ievying blackmail. If the story as told
by the Chinese informant be true. Ling
negotiates with the prisoners under the
very eyes of the officers, but thew of
course do not know what conversation
goes on between him and the prisoners.

DISAPPOINTED PEOPLE.
An Afternoon Musical Treat That Was
Spoiled.
The Gardener of the Plaza Refused
Haverly's Band Permission to
Use the Stand.

The Haverly Minstrel Bands an
nouncement of a public open-air con-
cert at the Plaza yesterday afternoon at
tracted large gathering of men, women
and children, who sat about under the
shade OF the trees to enjoy the music.
The afternoons amusement was
spoiled, however, by the action of the
gardener, man named Ward, who re-
fused to allow the band access to the
musicians platform.
The Trustees had given permission to
the band to play in the Plaza, and c. A.
Neale, leader of the Artillery Band. gave
consent, on behalf OF the Musicians
Union. for the use of the chairs, still
Gardener Ward would not allow the
visiting musicians to occupy the stand.
The result was that the members of the
band were compelled to stand on the
ground while they played. They gave
two or three selections and then quit to
the great disappointment and disgust of
the hundreds VINO had gathered there to
listen to the bands excellent music.
1t was reported that Ward, who draws
a salary from the city for attending to
the park, demanded So foE the use of the
stand. This he denied to a RECORD
UNION reporter, who asked him if it were
true. AS to the refusal of the use of the
stand, Ward said he had positive in
structions from the two Open-air Concert
Committees not to permit anyone to oc-
cupy the music-stand, and that he was
simply Obeying orders.
If the Concert Committees did instruct
Ward not TO allow the occupancy of the
music-stand, they made a serious mis-
take, for among the disappointed multi
tude yesterday were many who claimed
they had contributed money toward the
erection Of the stand, and held that il
was wrong to refuse visiting band to
use it when the latter desired to give a
free concert for the public.
Whoever made the mistake yesterday.
it certainly caused great Inconvenience
to the large thrOng who We're deprived of
the anticipated treat.
William FoOte, manager of the COM
pany, was seen last evening and asked if
any pay was demanded of him for the
use of the stand, and he replied that
Ward did demand s.. He (Foote) did not
believe the man was authorized to charge
for the stand, and refused to pay it.
He said the band would play there
again this afternoon at o'clock-on the
stand, if permitted to, but on the ground
if necessary.
