MANY THOUSANDS.
Travel by the Steamer Rosalie Is
Undiminished.


Undiminished.
"What is the matter on MiSsion-Street
dock?"
An excited individual asked this Ques-
tion yesterday morning, and without wait
il g for an answer rushed away to satisfy
his curiosity by personal observation.
There was an excitement on the desig-
mated wharf. Men, women and children
were rushing thither and that part of the
water front was black with people.
At the end Of the dock was the steamer
RoSalie, and on the Rosalie was the
largest crowd that has as yet taken pas
sage on the pretty opposition steamer.
1t was bitter scene for monopoly and a
sweet picture for corporation oppressed
Oaklanders.
President Huntington's little tilt with
the authorities of the city across the bay
had the effect of making the travelling
public all the more determined to drop
their nickel5 In slot that does not lead To
the pocket. Of monopoly. They gave 1000
scent pieces to the Davie Transportation
Company yesterday and practically &C.
serted the Southern Pacific's carriers.
Over 400 persons crossed on each trip in
the morning, and in the afternoon the
boat was packed every trip.
Two reasons can be assigned for this
sudden increase in the Davje Company's
travel. First. the people are convinced
that the new company can do what they
promised in the matter Of quicker trans
portation and have proven it by two days
of trial, and second, the anti-railrOad fight
in Oakland has created an anti-mOnopoly
sentiment. 1t manifested itseif strongly

extension of the time. Thomson says he
found purchasers in New York on making
a trip there. A portion of the bonds were

was paid upon them.
The balance Of the bonds we're sent for
and were forwarded, but were recalled by
the corporation. The company, Thomson
says. failed to delivere the bonds. which
was not his fault. and failed also to pay
him his commission. which, he states. was
to be " per cent on S500,000. He states
that he was under heavy expense to find
purchasers and asks judgment as above.
