Charlie Favor's Threatened Evidence
Arouses the Anger of the Gus


Customs Inspector Cleary got into trouble
again yesterday, and it is highly probable that
he will have considerable difficulty in explain
ing his conduct to h is superiors.
Thursday night Cleary visited Chinatown
apparently in search of his old-time friend,
Charles Favor. He was IN highly intoxicated
condition, making it generally disagreesble
for those with whom he came in contact.
Finally he met friend of Favor's, an alterca-
ton followed. resulting in Cleary pulling his
gun" He was arrested and booked at the
California-street station, but later in the even
ing was released on a $500 bond.
Yesterday he started on the warpath again,
and was rearrested about noon. Cfeary's dis
like OF Favor grows out of the rumor that the
latter intends to turn States evidence. Some
two months ago Cleary and Favor were
Jointly charged with attempting to eXtort
money from Chinese. The former was re-
leased by Commissioner Heacock because OF
insufficient evidence, but Favor did not escape
so lightly.
He was held to answer under $1,000 bonds
which he was unable to give. Last week Dis
trict Attorney Foote reduced the bond to 1900
and now Favor is practically free man. II
was given out at the time that Favor had Sc
cured his freedom on a promise TO tell some
unpleasant things about Cleary and other
customs officials. Cleary heard Of it, and for
the last two days he has been hard after the
scalp of his erstwhile friend. What the out
come will be no one can surmise, but there is
a general belief around the Federal building
that Special Agent Moore will use the present
trouble against him in Washington.

is AFTER GREAT SHIPS,
S. Asam of Japan Here to Con-
suit With the Union Iron
Works.
A New Steamer Line to Be Estab
lished Between Japanese Ports
and Portland, Oregon.

s. Asam of Toxic, who is at the head of a
new Japanese syndicate with $4,000, 900 capt.
tai to start new line of steamers between the
principal ports of Japan and Portland, arrived
here yesterday.
/ Under law lately passed by the japanese
Diet q subsidy is to be paid by the Government
for all vessels of over 5000 tons burden. The
idea of the company, which has already been
organized, is to have all its vessels of about
5000 tons.
The vessels therefore viii be OF enormous
size. Mr.. Asam is here to see what terms
American shipbuilders can make him on
building the vessels.
His object first IS to see Irving NJ. Scott of
the Union Iron Works. Mr.. Dickey of the works
was over in Japan ONE time since, and then,
it is stated, had consultation with Mr.. Asam
and his friends concerning the ships.
1t is given out from n reliable source that the
subsidies guaranteed by the Japanese Govern
ment viii go far to foot the cost of the vessels.
Mr.. Asam is very friendly, a S are his country
men generally, to Americans. He thinks his
ships ought to be built here.
The idea of the new syndicate is to do q very
large business and cut the freight and pas
senger rates to q low point. They have even
in view the furnishing OF passenger rate as
low as 50 between Japan and the coast.
A big business is expected to be done In tea
By fostering trade it is thought great and
at the same time profitable business may be
worked up between the two countries.
Mr. Asam will be here for some days and will
thoroughly investigate the matter. Then he
will pr robably go East and to Europe.
