ADDRESSES BY THE RABBITS.
Orthodox Hebrews VIII Cease Fast
ing at Sunset This
Evening.

The seventh day of the festival of Pass
over was appropriately celebrated by the
Hebrews of San Francisco yesterday. The

was the recital of that portion of the book
of Exodus which relates to the crossing OF
the Red Sea by the ancient Israelltes and
the drowning of their pursuers by the wa
tiers of the gulf.
AS on the first and second days of the
feast, services were held in all the temples
and sermons appropriate to the occasion
were delivered by the rabbis.

THE UNION OUTW|TTED
Non-Union Crews Sail in the
WaChuSett and the
Garfield.
Coast Seamen Patrol Not Allowed
on the Ship Belle
O'Brien.

Two more vessels went to sea yesterday
morning with non union crews despite the
efforts of the Sailors Union to get the
men off. The ship Wachusett was the
first to get away. Some trouble was expe-
rienced in getting her crew on board Sun
day afternoon, but clearinghouse Master
Cain, with the aid of the police, managed
to outwit the union. An armed guard re-
manned on the ship all night to keep off
the unions bay patrol and, although the
latter's boat went alongside the ship in the
stream the Coast Seamen got no opportu-
nifty of holding communication with the
men.

tronble--in fact all the shops seemed to be
ANXIOUS to obey the law and to recognize
us wisdom aud justice. He said in speak
ing OF the agitation, yesterday:
80 far we have progressed very well. MY first
eHort IN behalf of the law was to send out
ABOUT 600 circularcards with the new section
printed upon them, which were designed to be
paced on-the walls of the various shops. The
eHect was Immediate, for every shop which
received a card closed the next Sunday.
we received some complaints last week, but all
were from shops which in the hurry had neg
Iected to send cards to.
Our greatest apprehension was felt for the

afternoon and the ship James H. Garfield
went to sea yesterday morning. The crew
OF the latter went aboard from Meiggs
wharf and no one interfered with the men.
The Sailors Union had falling out with
the boatmen at Meiggs wharf some years
ago over an item for boat hire and the
union very rarely visit the wharf. The
Archie and Fontie had several non-union
men put aboard from Meiggs wharf also
and she will sail this morning.
The patrol boats of the Sailors Union
went out to the American ship Belle

however but revival of the old agitation
of few years ago which marked the first
step of the BARRIERS toward shortening their
hours. The closing of the shops at II
o'clock on Sundays will, of course, be
secured by the law, and it is hoped that
the voluntary closing at O'Clock on all
ordinary week days will follow.
The law was first suggested by members
of the BARRIERS Protective Union, and much
OF the support and influence necessary to
carry it through the Legislature came from
that body. Now that it has passed and
become law, however, the enforcement
OF 1t has been left to a great extent with

the BARRIERS Association. The difference
between these two organizations is a
marked one. The BARRIERS Protective
Union is composed of men who are BARRIERS
by occupation, either employers or Jour
neymen, and its object is mainly bene
fetal one, and there is no element of the
labor union in its organization. On the
other hand the BARRIERS Association is
purely labor organization and is CON-
posed mainly of journeymen BARRIERS. The
Association now has committees out who
have been empowered to see that the new
law is rigidly enforced, but so far no arrests

the measure was anticipated, but there has
been singularly little complaint from
those particular sources. In fact the lead
ers of the movement are owners of shops
whose customers are largely drawn from
the hotels in which they are located.
1t is intended to go farther than the law,
and include in the movement an agitation
for the closing of the shops at s o'clock in
the evening of all days but those preced-
ing legal holidays or upon Saturdays

Knights of the Razor Support the Valley Road.
CALL representative was informed yes
terday of very practical and ingenious
method of creating small fund for dona-
ton to the new valley railroad. The pro-
prietors of the Russ House baths and shay
ing parlor have had engraved 200 special
bath tickets bearing the legend, as a
special inducement, Good at any time at
our establishment for fresh or salt water
bath, to aid the new valley railroad"
These tickets will be issued to customers,
and when all are sold the amount-$50-
will be turned over to the treasury of the
new road. 1t will not take long to dispose
of the tickets. This will afford a chance

tribution but are diffident about offering a
small amount, and at the same time the
donor will receive a chrome" in the shape

club-shops, but think even they will recog-
nize the law without hesitation as soon as it IS
properly presen ted to them. In several of the
clubs the barber shops are kept open nearly all
day Sunday, but after IL o'clock the men who
work in them are the same who have worked
up to II O'Clock in downtown shops. From
several of these men we have received promises
that they will not go to the club-shops after II
o'clock on Sunday, and unless the Others are
willing to listen to our reasoning we will rea-
son with their employers. We will also present
the matter to the presidents of the clubs and
see if they viii not help us.
So far we have had no serious complaints,
and not one of the shop-owners has evinced q
desire to test the law by opposing us. We have
men out quietly, not as an organized commit
tee but with full ins tructions as to how
they viii act, and they are doing great
deal for the enforcement of the law in an un-
obtrusive way. They merely ssate the case
to the shop-owner or the journeyman, and so
far that has been found sufficient.
So far the BARRIERS are working only on
the proposition to close the shops on Sun
day at II O'Clock, but there is no doubt
but that this will be extended to include
the whole of Sunday as we'll at the next
Legislature, if not before. Some of the
shop-owners have expressed surprise that
this was not done at the present time, but
was considered too radical measure, and
so the law was made to include only Sun
day afternoons. The penalty for violating
the law is fine not less than $40 nor more
than $50.

Trial Of Murderer Henson.

walla Walla- Oct. I-Special.-The case
Of the State VS.. D. X. Benson. alias Will
lam Harrison. on charge OF murder in
the first degree. came up for trial in the
stloerior court this afternoon. Benson
stabbed William Ellis, a convict. while at
work in the jute mill last July. inaicting
wounds from which the latter died about
an hour afterward. Shortly after o. clock
this afternoon Benson was brought from
the penifentiary, heavily ironed. by the
prison officers. and walked into the court
room. followed by his attorneys. Then
came Mrs Benson. mother Of the accused.
Benson appeared in his usual brazen man
ner. very indifferent. Immediately after
arriving in the court room Benson's at
tornevs moved for a continuance until
the expiration Of the present term Benson
is serving In the penitentiary for grand
larceny. which would terminate July =.
1900 for the reason that the court had no
jurisdiction. The attorneys contended
that other states had laws providing pun
ishment for crimes committed by convicts
serving sentence. but the state of Wash
ington had none. hence the court had no
jurisdiction until Benson had served his
present sentence. Prosecuting Attorney
Ormsbee claimed that while this state had
no statute touching upon such cases, the
law expressly provides that no person
shall have any Immunity from the law,
and there is no reason why a person IN
the penitentiaTy charged with a crime
should not be granted the same privileges
for speedy trial as other persons. Judge
Upton took the matter under advisement.
and will render a decision tomorrow
