Hundreds of them have been within the

from the Alaskan fisheries and country

New meeting-paces for the various high

Police Officer +. l.. Gibson. who has had

The ready sympathy of the Mayor Is a

MANY applicants, after obtaiuing g
10-cent meal tickets from a society, go
into Chinatown and sell them for cents,

The Associated Charities or any of the

assurance If they adopt cooperative

Burglars in a Dive.

Charles Wallace and John Henderson
were arrested at an early hour yesterday
morning by Police Officers Wren, Rey-
nolds and Mcmahon on Pacific street.
Henderson used to be waiter in Bottle
Koenig's. Pacific street, near Montgomery
avenue. and between and o'clock in the
morning he and Wallace were seen to enter
the place. The employees are paid every
Monday evening, and the money was al
ways kept in the safe over night. This
was known to Henderson aud 1t is sup
posed their object was to get at the safe.
When the officers. after waiting for some
minutes, entered the dive. the two men
bolted out of a rear door, but were quickly
captured. They were booked last night
on charge of burglary.

meet the demand if the contributions were
economically distributed. While there are
many charitable societies in this city the
army finds it costs each 20 cents a day to
provide man with two meals and bed,
whereas the Salvationsts can provide the
same for Is cents.
Hence the Salvation Army has pointed
out that if the various city charities will
be willing to buy army meal and bed
tickets they may give them to whomsoever
they WILL but that their money will be
made to 90 about 100 per cent further. In
: other words, that whereas they helped one
man before they may then, with out addi-
tional expense or trouble, help two and
one-half men.

would guarantee the charities against

by going the rounds of the charities. An
Identification system is proposed, whereby
such impostors would have scant chance
for their game.

day with encouraging results. All recOg-

undertaken to assist the unemployed dur

doing good work and deserves the full

The problem of the unemployed Is al

the corner of Seventh and Mission streets.

with an increasing number to care for and

which TO do it.

large number arrested only two were mer-
chants. although he admitted thew had
been known TO associate with hghbnders.
II is also singular that not single mer-
chant in Chinatown called at the police
station or at the City Prison to see any of
those arrested. or TO offer TO bail them out.
Many of them, however, spoke to the
arresting officers and expressed the hope
that the whole highbinder gang would be
driven out of the country. as they brought
disgrace upon reputable Chinese.
1t was learned late last night that the
arrest of so many highbnders has much
greater significance than TO hold them sim
ply on the charge of vagrancy.
Certain parties have been cooperating
with the police to have this means
taken of properly identifying them with
the view of their deportation, and
warrants from the Federal courts will be
served upon them with thai object in

In connection with the accomm odation

it might be found necessary to abandon the

persons a day were being fed, but the
kitchen was too small and the arrange
menis for providing for the men were in
