The Manufacture of Chinese

A Raid on a San Francisco House

BY the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 28.-It has
been known for some time that an
organized gang of white men and Chi
nese scattered along the Pacific coast
and having connections in several east
ern cities have been doing business in
fraudulent certificates of Chinese regis
tration. Secret agents of the treasury
ascertained that bogus cer-
tificates were being printed in this city
and Philadelphia.
Last night place on Clay street was
raided and its paraphernalia and over
5000 blank registration certificates were
captured. None OF the counterfeiters
were caught and it is presumed that
some one in the customs service man
aged to warn them. e
Secret Service Agent Thomas says
the leader OF the gang is man named
Todd, an exclusions officer in the

The HIGH SCHOOL.
Twelve Districts Want to Come
In.
What Will Likely Happen Should
Phoenix Decide to Have
School of Its Own.

Last night at midnight was the latest
moment at which official notice could
be posted, calling an election on the
high school question. County Superin-
tendent Cronse was therefore very busy
in preparing notices and des esDatching
them 10 the several districts from which
petitions have been sent up.
It is required that in each district
proposing to join in the formation of a
joint district there shall be posted three
notices; In districts proposing to estab-
lish high school within its own limits,
there shall be five.
The number of districts desiring to
avail themselves of the benefits of the
new law is growing. 1t was originally
intended 10 include only eight districts
in the Union district to center in Phe-
nix. Petitions have been received
from twelve and elections have been
ordered in them.
Two sets OF petitions were circulated
in Phoenix yesterday, one in favor of a
local high school district, and the
other in support of joint district.
Advocates of the latter claim to be
strongly in the majority, notwith-
standing the expression of opinion at
the mass meeting on Wednesday night.
Residents of this district will be given
an opportunity to vote upon both
propositions.
Outside districts are already consid
ering the matter of forming one OF
more high school districts in the coun-
try in the event that Phoenix declines
to become part of joint district.
The settlement outside is much more
! strongly in favor of high school than
was anticipated, so that It is probable
that there will be no dearth OF means
OF higher education in Maricopa county.
The strongest objection entertained
in Phoenix to joint district, though it
was not openly presented, is felt by
persons owning property in one or
more OF the proposed districts. They
would, they say, become victims to q
sort of reduplication of taxation,
whereas for a local high school they
would be taxed only upon property
| lying in one district.
Should the outside districts be shut
out and compelled to organize high
schools by com bining among them
selves. the same property holders would
indeed have cause for complaint. The
tax in that case would be assessed upon
the property now intended to be
shielded. 1t would be much more bur.
densome, for the cost of two or more
high schools would be proportionately
much more than the cost of one. The
cost however would cut no figure fol
the law fixes no limit upon the rate
The schools would have to be built re
gardless of expense if the people want
! them.

savagery have prevailed there in
the wholesale murder of helpless
foreigners. Not content with that the
committee had referred to Colorado

CAUGHT AT 1T.
Samuel Sneed Again Gets in His
Deadly Work.

Mr.. Samuel Sneed, that yigilant con-
servator Of city ordinances, furnished
the only business in police court yester-
day morning, by causing the arrest of
Joseph Monihon and William Cox, for
driving cattle on jefferson street.
Recorder Schwartz refused to issue
the warrants hutA sending word to
Messrs. Morihon ard Cox they ap-
peared in court. There was OF course
no defense. 1t would have been diff
cult matter even if The defendants had
chosen to try it, to establish an alibi for
a big drove of cattle. The ordinance is
also explicis and the defendants there
fore pleaded guilty and paid nominal
fine of 81 each and left without express
sion of warm and friendly regard for
Mr.. Sneed, the iniormer.
The ordinance was passed couple of
years ago, before the building OF the
north and south road; in fact, before
it was contemplated that it would oc-
cupy Jackson street which by the
ordinance became the only thorough
fare in the city south of Washington
street. for cattle. Since the taking IN
of ChurchilPs addition, Van Buren,
street on the north has been closed
against drovers. In order to reach the
stock cars Messrs. Monihon and Cox,
unable to 60 up Jackson street, would
have had to make circuitous trip of
about four miles around the town.
They decided to take short cut of half
a dozen blocks along Jefferson street,
even if in doing 1t they had to drive
through city ordinance.

SLOW REGISTRATION
Can Be Accelerated Only by Party
Nominations.

The city registration is proceeding
with great deliberation. About ten
names are daily added to the list. 1t
will require two municipal conventions
to bring out the vote. When the can
didates are once named they will make
it part of the program to swell the
registration.
The political waters have not begun
to be stirred yet, or at any rate, the
surface remains placid. The personnel
of the Democratic ticket has hardly be-
come even subject of consideration,
and so far every man whom rumor has
placed in the field has FASTENED to set
himself right before the public by deny
ing it.
A citizens ticket is being advocated
in certain quarters.
