Four Mile Race

SAN FRANCISCO, April 30.-The
chief attraction at Ingleside tomorrow
afternoon will be the four-mile race.
Eight horses are carded to start, but 1t
is doubtful IL more than six will go over
the long route. This Is most satisfac-
tory field. as heretofore 1t has been
a source of great difficulty to secure
more than three starters. The Bache-
lor. who promised to be the favorite.
pulled up lame after the two-mlle race,
ard is not in fit condition to start,
but his stable companion, Can't Dance,
will prove a factor in the race. He
likes long route, although mud Is his
great forte. Schillers last race was a
good one, and although asked to carry
big weight, he has pull on the score
of class.
Lobongula, if he starts, will be close
up at the finish. He ran four miles at
Oakland and made credftable show
ing. He has whole lot of weight on
today. Little Bob looks a bit outclassed.
but he worked three miles in first class
style the other morning, and II the
strong work does not initiate against
| him. he may get inside the money. Mar
eel is partial to a long route, but her
recent form has been very bad. The
same argument can be advanced against
against Wawona. Lucretia Borgia has
been given special preparation. She
is in very light. but she will be handi-
! capped by having a boy in the saddle.
who will doubtless get tired before the
horse.
Wheel Of Fortune will probably not

A BIGGER TAX ON BEER
TO BE REColEMENDED By SEC
RETARY GAGE
Illicit Distilling Knocks the Profit OF
the Whisky Tax and Moonshin-
ing Is Increasing

WASHINGTON, April 30.-It is very
probable that the secretary Of the treas
ury will soon recommend to congress
material reduction in the internal rev.
enue tax on distilled spirits and an in
crease in the tax on beer. the action will
be taken on the ground that the present
tax of $1.10 per gallon Is above the rev.
|enue producing point. Some days ago
Senator Cullom introduced resolution,
which was adopted, calling on the Sec
|retary for his views on the subject and
the commissioner of internal revenue
has now Is preparation report to the
secretary covering the facts involved.
This report will show that since the
increased tax on spirits from 80 cents
to $1.10 per gallon, illicit distilling has in
creased to point almost If not quite be-
yond control. This ie the case in Ken
lucky and in the mountainous districts
of the south. Recently evidence has
been obtained of its extension in the
north. Not long ago large quantity of
Illicit whisky was captured in Atlanta
and investigation disclosed the fact that
it was manufactured in Nebraska. That
1t is rapidly increasing and extending in
many directions, internal revenue off,
GERS say is beyond doubt and with only
the $50.000 appropriated by congress for
the detection and suppression of Illicit
distilling. the internal revenue bureau
is almost helpless to stem the tide. just
what reduction will be recommended is
not known but there are reasons for be-
| lieving that 90 cents the rate ,,rder N q
Mckinley bill, will be fixed upon. Under
the lower rate, it is contended that the
inducements for violating the law would
be reduced and at the same time the rev.
enue would not suffer. No definite con-
clusions have been reached as to what
the tax on beer ehall be, but it is alto
gether probable that an increase will be
advised.

Gets Its Little Finishing
Touches
NO ONE KNOWS THE CHANGES
BUT PEOPLE ARE PROMISED A
eURPRIsE
The Seekers. After Protection for Cali
fornia Fruits Are Busy and
Hopeful Of Success

Associated Press Special Wire.
WASHINGTON. April S0.--Senators
Allison and Aldrich spent the day in
placing the finishing touches on the
tariff bill. They were the only men,
bers of the subcommittee in the city
The bill has been completed In all es-
sential particulars. and now only re-
mains to be put in shape for presenta-
ton to the Democrats. The members
CT the subcommittee decline to reveal
the changes agreed upon, even to mem-
bers Of the senate.
Indeed, the senators generally are as
ignorant Of the amendments agreed up
on as the general public. and 1t Ia safe
to saw that the report, when made, will
contain many surprises.
The Democrats say the length OF time
taken in committee will depend entirely
upon the character of the amendments.
It Is understood to be one OF the pur-
poses of the Democratic members OF
the finance committee to cner several
amendments and force vote on them,
SO as to put the Republicans on record.
and they count upon having the CO.
operation of Senator Jones OF Nevada
on some Of their propositions. Senator
Jones' position appears to be that he
will demand certain concessions. most
Of them affecting western interests, and
that If he does not secure them from
the Republicans he will join the Demo-
Gratis in order to get them, and some OF
the Democratic members have indicat-
ed a willingness to assist him.
The California fruit people are con-
tinuing their efforts to secure an ad-
vance in the fruit rates, and they are
hopeful Of success.
Messrs. Daniel and Snow constitute
committee now here in this interest.
They have exhibited specimens Of such
of their oranges to the committee as
they do not ship to the eastern markets
because they are shut out, they say,
by European competition. They con.
tend that with small advance in rates
California can supply the entire coun-
try with citrus fruits.

THE SUNSET CLUB
A Paper by Prof. Charles Frederick
Holder on Chinese Slavery

Holder on Chinese slavery
About thirty-five members Of the Sun
set club surrounded the mahogany at
Jerry Illich's cafe last night and dis
cused the good things set forth. Vice.
President Dan Freeman presided.
A preliminary feature was the circu-
lation of statistical paper by Geo. II.
Stewart, designed to show the standing
of members as family mem e. the num-
ber married and single and thenumber
of children claimed by the former.
The intellectual feature of the evening
was a paper by Prof. Charles Freder-
ick Holder on Chinese Slavery in Amer
ica." Prof. Holder canvassed his SUBJ
ject thoroughly, setting forth the moral
aspect Of Chinese immigration and then
showing how the traffic In Chinese
women Is carried on in California with
all the formality of other commercial
transactions. He quoted past and cur
rent prices, and cited numerous cases
that had been brought to the attention
of the Rescue home of San Francisco.
He also described the methods by which
unsuspecting Chinese girls are inveiglcd
into this country. to be sold in many
cases for purposes of prostitution. The
fortunate creatures were only limited at
Prof. Holder asserted that there Is
regularly organized and powerful organ
ization among the Chinese Of San Fran
cisco to perpetuate this atrocious sys-
tenn, and 1t always comes to the support
of slave owners who are in danger Of
losing their chattels. One Of the most
exasperating features Of the case is that
there are not wanting officers OF the law
and petty courts who lend themselves to
sustaining the system by arresting and
holding the victims who attempt to es-
cape on all sorts Of trumped up charges.
sworn to by slave owners or membersof
their tong
The paper was one calculated to
awaken earnest thought and to predis-
pose every hearer to lend his efforts to
stamping out this hideous outrage on
American civilization. Mr.. C. D. Will
lard, Mr.. Parsons. Judge Knight and
several others participated In the dis
cussion that followed.
