SOUTH wAsHINGToN's PROTEST..
Objections to the Garbage Furnace
Presented to the Commissioners.

ODyectlOnS 10 Inc SarD3Ee FurnOce
Presented to the Commissioners.
South Washington raised its voice
against the location of the garbage crema-
tory in that section today before the Com
missioners. 1t was a public hearing given
by the Commissioners to the committee of
the South Washington Citizens Associa-
ton. which was appointed to present the
resolutions adopted at a recent meeting of
the association, protesting against the To-
cation of the garbage crematory at the
foot of South Capitol street. These resolu-
tions have heretofore been printed in The
Star.
Mr.. W. c. Prentiss did most of the talk
ing for the committee. He said that the
location of the garbage plant upon the site
of the old reduction plant would be a
nuisance to the neighborhood. Even If the
plant itself was not nuisance the carts
going to and from the same would be, and
1T was not just to the people in that sec
ton that such a burden be imposed upon
them. He suggested that the James Creek
canal would be a good place, much better
in fact than the South Capitol street site.
The Commissioners, however, said they
could not force the contractor to put up
the plant on James Creek canal. 1t was
then stated that while the location of
crematory in that section would be a nuis-
ance, 1t would not be so bad il another
plant were erected, which would divide the
stencil from the carts. The Commissioners
stated that while they were not sure how
many plants would be erected they thought
it would be to the advantage of the con-
tractor to erect two plants. The committee
present consisted of Messrs. VIM. A Rich
ards, John Quinn, Henry Story, Michael
Brown, Thomas Martin and w. c. Prentiss.

THE BUILDING INSPECTOR.
He Submits His Annual Estimates to
the Com missiOners.


The annual estimates of the building in
spectcr have been submitted to the Com
mssioners. He asks for appropriation
to provide for the salaries of three addi-
tional inspectors and one clerk, and says
in this connection:
Il desire to express the hope that the in
creased assistance for general inspection
therein provided for VIII not be denied. It's
necessity is and has been urgent, and Will
become more and more SO in the future,
and the consequence of failure on the
part OF Congress to give this recommended
ton favorable consideration should not be
visited on this office. Manifestly, the build
ing inspector has but little opportunity to
give this branch of the work his personal
attention. Office work and the care and
supervision of SO many municipal buildings
engrosses his whole time, and entire re-
lance for proper inspection OF general con-
struction must be placed to his assistants"
Other items are: For the care of the
District building he estimates $751; there
being an additional sum of $500 for the sal
airy of one steam engineer. For repairs to
buildings he estimates SAB 100, the items he
ing $4,000 for School buildings; police sta
TONS $1,000; fire engine houses, $4,000; mar

Factions in Chinatown Engaged in
Hostilities.
SAM YUPS and THE SEE YUPS
1t Promises to Be a Regular Ken
lucky Feud.
THE LEGATION RETICENT

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5.-Chinatown
Is in turmoil and boycott war is fiercely
waging. The Chinese Six Companies
which for so many years have controlled
matters in the Chinese quarter, no longer
work in harmony and will probably never
again he united. The quarrel has spread
all over the country among Chinese, from
here to New York.
The trouble originated IN the murder of
Chang Wal, a member of the Sam Yup
Company. N1ok Tai, Cay Zee Yup man,
was arrested for this murder, but his COM
pany believed him innocent and asked the
Sam Yups to call off the prosecution. This
they refused to do. and the Chinese con-
sui sided with the Sam Yups. Then .
boycott was declared against the Sam
Yups by the See Yups.
The Sam IupS comprise the Weather
classes of Chinese, who do a big business
as butchers, while the See Iups are COM
posed OF the laDoring classes, mainly Gus
toners of the Sam Eups. The See Yups
have started rival shops and a strict
boycott is being wased against the Sam
Yups. greatly to their discontinue and
financial loss. Three of the companies
have sided with the See Yups, twC
against The Sam 1ups. but the fifth. the
Yeong Wo Company, composed of the bet
ter class of merchants, hold aloof from the
fray.
They, too, are threatened with war if
they do not conn over into the camp of the
enemies of the hated Sam Yups.
Jaw Men Sang, president of the Weong,
who tried to he diplomatic and not become
involved in the quarrel has as a result lost
his position and has been succeeded by
Bow zee, rival. from China. Bow zee
is studying the situation and it is believed
he is awaiting the arrival of instructions
from the Chinese minister a Washingt ton.
The Chinese consul here generally a man
of great influence among his countrymen,
is CIV treated with contempt by all eX-
cept the Sam Yups. and he will probably
lose his position If the wishes of the ma
jcrity of the Chinese count for anything.
No matter what decision may be reached,
the Sam Yups are ruined. for enmities have
been engendered that cannot be removed
except by their financial ruin.
There is apparent aversion on the
rart of the Chinese minister and other
members of the Chinese legation here to
diSeu ss the trouble among the members of
the Chinese Six Companies. 1t is admitted
at the legation that the minister is kept
constantly informed of the progress of the
controversy, but no intimation can be OBJ
tanned as to whether the minister will
take any action favorable to either side.
He heretofore has indicated that the set
ticment of the difficulties would be left
TO the consul general al San Francisco,
and there has been no intimation of any
purpose to go to the assistance OF that
official.

SEA GRIT, N. j., September 5.-Gen.
Ordway and Col. Mosher were among the
many interested spectators on the range

peting in TIE biggest event of the meet,

fog hung over the amp in the early morn
ing, which was partially dispelled by the
rising sun, but even after breakfast the
900 yards targets were hardly visible from
the firing point. The wind, too, had COM
pletely changed it's direction, blowing across
the lange from the left, dial registering 10

Hilton match 1t is also necessary to fire at
GOO yards. Seven shots are fired by each
member of the team at each of the three
distances. Tne Washingtonans being
stronger at the longer ranges than at 300
yards they confidently expect to again re-
turn home bearing. the highly priced Hill

Massachusetts, which tied the District
today at 200 yards. successfully won the
trophy in 1856. 1887, 1888 and 1889 The
following year it was carried off by the
District.

SUPPLEMENTAL BILL FILED.
Mr.. Ridcut's Contention I'm Regard to
the Commissioners Action.

Mr. Ridout this afternoon filed the sup
Elemental bill of complaint in the cass al
legng, by way of supplement to he origi
nal bill, that last Saturday the Commits
sioners filed the map for record in the Of
fee of the District surveyor, the Commits
sioners contending that by such filing and
record Warder street. in front of Mr.. jack
sens property, has been abandoned and
ceased to be public highway.
The complainant, however, charges that
such record. pending the suit, cannot i'm
pair or affect his rights in the premises,
and he contends that he is entitled to such
relief as the nature of his case requires,
ana as will be in accordance with the ex-
isting state of things. He therefore prays
that the record of the plat map. in so
lar as il purports to abandon Warder
street may be decreed to be null, void and
of no effect.

In my judgment the Commissioners
have no authority to issue special permits
to any one to stand wagons or horses in
the streets. They have general authority
to establish wagon stands, hack stands
etc, but none that am aware of to grant

The Reason For Advertising.

Advertisers Use The Star
because they get profitable
results from their advertising
in it.
They know, also, that
each one pays a like price
for a like service.
Advertising space is not
given to one house in order
that it may act as a deeoy
duck for others.
No Discount" for one,
special discount" for an
other and extra special
discount" for still another.
Like price for like service
is the only fair way.
