slxty-two days were consumed in actual

the most difficult portions of the Rocky

Mr.. Loher thinks he made a mistake in
choosing to cross by the northern route, and
recommends bicyclists to take another
route. There are long stretches of noun
tain-climbing through the Spokane coun-
try and the Muller Pass into Helena,

popular at the track and quite number OF

John Mackey, the well-known superin-
tendent of the Rancho del Paso, is espe-
cially proud of this collection of colts and
tillies and can be seen walking around the
yard at the corner of Market and Van
Ness avenue pointing out his charges
with the utmost delight. There is scarcely
an animal in the lot that is not related to
winners of good class. Buyers will there
fore feel assured that if they get any of
these they have only to exercise ordinary
care to make them pay their way.
California is only entering upon extern

owners to stock up with animals of the
best breeding and most promising appear
ance. Mr.. Haggin undoubtedly holds
trumps IN the breeding world, and racing
men need have no fear in putting his
stock into the hands of their trainers.

Mr.. Woods with reference to the story that
the collector made tour OF Chinatown in
the interest of his son, Mr.. Woods returns
the compliment by saying that the state
ment made by the collector to the effect
that ne mad heard that Mr.. Woods was in
arrears to Mrs. Elizabeth B. Sanborn, the
owner of theVa llejo-street warehouse, for
$4,000 rent is false.
Il did not say that the collector.had been
drumming up Chinese business for his
son." explained Mr.. Woods, ''but that 1
had heard it. l was not behind in my
rent to Mrs. Sanborn."
Comments have been freely made by the
warehouse men on the Harry Wise Incl
dent and from what they said yesterday
afternoon many of them are prepared to
act with Mr.. Woods whenever he gets
ready to communicate with Secretary Car
Isle. AS one of them, Edward ?. Dan
forth, remarked:
If the Collector can 90 this with one OF us, he
can do it with all of us, and it would only be a
question of time when all the warehouse busi-
ness of the City would be in the hands OF the
Wise family. We will have to act, therefore,
for our own self-prOtection in this matter.
1t might be added in explanation that
the Danforths are not taking any agrees
sive action toward the Collector. Mr..
Woods makes the Atlantic warehouse his
headquarters, and is doing his utmost to
pull trade away from the Vallejo-street
warehouse and throw it to the Broadway
and Atlantic warehouses, owned by the
Danforths father and son. respectively.

His Wheel.

Very Unpleasant.

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL,
90S Broadway, Dec. Is.
Much interest was shown to-day at the
Acme Club over the tour of George Loher,
who arrived home yesterday from New
York, to which city he went on his wheel.
Loher's trip was one of the most arduous
and difficult ever undertaken. Instead of
riding from ocean to ocean by the most
direct and accessible route, as all previous
cross-continent riders have done-with the
exception of Tom Winder-Mr. Loher pre-
ferred TO take his way over some of the
widest and toughest portions of the coun-
try. He left Oakland on August IL in
company with friend named Cornell but
his companion turned about at Sacramento
and came home.
Loher skirted the Pacific Coast to Port
land, and then made his way East through
Idaho Montana, the Dakotas and Mime
sofa, to Chicago. from which point he fol-
lowed the beaten track of travel to New
York, where he arrived by October 30.
The trip was not taken with any view OF
crossing the continent on record time, but

houseman to Write to
Carlisle.
THE LIE PASSED BACK TO WISE.
He Characterizes the Statement of the
Collector About His Rent as
False.

Warehouseman Robert J. Woods has
not vet prepared his formal complaint
to Secretary Carlisle about the peculiar
manner in which Harry Wise, the son of
the Collector of Customs, became the
partner of his successor in the Vallejo
street United States Bonded Warehouse,
William B. Sanborn.
"You newspaper men have anticipated
me-" he said yesterday afternoon. "You
have published this matter two weeks
before 1 really intended to act. I was in
hopes all the time that the thing would
not be made public until got around to it
and had my communications for the
Treasury Department ready, but you
fellows seem TO get onto everything.
81 want to clear up my business before
I start in on this Wise affair. 1t will prob
ably take me about two weeks yet"
A question has arisen as to whether
young Harry Wise will have to give a
bond. That he has not yet given one was
left understood by Mr.. Jerome in the
typewriter statement which that official
unsolicited by the Collector, prepared to
set his superior right in the eyes of the
public. From what Mr.. Wise Sr. and Mr..
Jerome both say the inference is that Mr.
Jerome, as Acting Collector during the
COLLECTOR 5 dDSeHCe, passed upon the DOnO
of Mr.. Sanborn and its sureties and for
warded it on to Washington for the de-
partment's approval. Mr.. Jerome's words
are:
The premises had been reborded in the name
of W. b. Sanborn before Mr.. Sanborn was ac-
quainted with either Collector Wise or his son
Harry, and, as matter of record, SanDorn is
the sole proprietor of the warehouse, as the
lessee of his mother. and Harry Wise is not so
far as this Office is officially aware, connected
with the warehouse.
Collector Wise said in his own explana-
ton:
did not know anythingeir about tn partner
ship until the papers were drawn up by Judge
Stanley.
In the few words following the Collector
admitted that the partnership was an es-
tablished fact, and in speaking of the San
born bond be said:
My recollection is that when the bond of Mr..
Sanborn was presented l was not here

necessary for young Wise to give any bond.
Here is what article 677 Of the customs
repulatiOns for 1899 saws.


Here is what article 677 Of the customs
regulations for 1892 says:
In executing the bonds required of the pro-
prietors OF the bonded warehouse, there must
be entered in the body of the bond the full
names and occupations of principals and
sureties and their place of residence, including
street and number if in a city. The
bond must be signed by principals and sureties
in the order in which their names appear in
the obligation, and If copartnership is party
to the bond each member must sign it and the
firm must be desert bed in the body of the obi
CATION thus: A: B. and c., doing business
under the style OF A. B. d. c.
A paragraph in article 67S says:
New bonds must in all cases be given when a
warehouse passes into the hands of new prin-
cipals and when change takes place in q
partnership.
And article 679 says:
Proprietors on ten days notice may be re-
quired by the Collector to renew their bond.
If the bonds are not renewed upon the
Collectors demand he NAV stop any
further consignments of goods from being
stored in that particular warehouse, and
may have withdrawn and transferred those
already there.
Mr.. Woods tells of remarkable pro-
ceeding on the part of the Collector last
Saturday afternoon. Under the regula-
tons warehouses are generally supposed
to be open from A. NJ. until p NJ, con-
siderable latitude having been allowed,
however, to San Francisco by a special
rule and no particular exception having
been made IS to Saturday. No warehouse
in ase of emergency has allowed the regu-
lations to interfere with the storage of
goods, and the custom has been to keep
open until the goods were all in, no matter
how late the hour was. II have seen
warehouses open as late as 10 o'clock at
night" said Mr.. Woods.
According to Mr.. Woods story the Col
lector went to the telephone on Saturday
afternoon between and O'Clock and
ordered Storekeeper Kelly at the Vallejo
street bonded warehouse not to allow any
more transfers to be made by Mr.. Woods,
but to close up forthwith. Yet the papers
for the transfers, says Mr.. Woods, had al
ready been issued by the Custom house,
and the United States draymen were on
hand to receive the goods, some of which

City Water to Be Analysed for Chemi-
cal and Organic Impurities.
The Board of Health, represented by
Secretary Godchaux and Health Officer

The long-priced outsider went out in front
and showed the way until well on toward
the wire. Garner on Our Maggie gradually
decreased his lead and beat him out at the
Jostied and cut off just as the flag fell and
finished fourth, q head back of Oakland.
Condo, with Doggett up, received all OF
the backing in the fourth event, five and
a half furlong dash, going to the post at
even money. After leading for about
furlong, the second choice. Last Chance,
headed him and galloped in an easy win
ner by two lengths.
The talent went down hard on the last
race, also a five and half furlong spin.

she were a Hindoo, being hammered from
