Dor Commissioners for repairs on the

taken up and it was found that none
Of them were itemiZed. By a resolu-
ton adopted some time ago, the Board
of Examiners agreed TO reject all
claims which were not itemiZed, and
as those for repairs on the depot were
in this condition, a resolution was
adopted requiring the Harbor Commits
sioners to specify all repairs made.
There is a question, however, as to
whether or not the Harbor Commits
sion will pay any attention to the de-
mands of the Board of Examiners, for
while the latter has always passed up
on the bills of the former, a recent de-
cision of the Supreme Court made it
apparent that the Board of Examiners
has practically very little in common
with the Harbor Commission. and very

SUDDEN CHECK.
Klondyker Hastings Meets With an
Unexpected Setback.

J. n. Hastings, who had publicly an
nounced that he would leave here this
morning for San Francisco, where he
would set sail on Thursday for Klon
dyke with the Rideout party, was ar
rested yesterday on two charges of in
tention to leave the State to defraud
his creditors.
The compliments were the Sullivan
Kelly Paint Company and Charles
Heisen. Hastings denies having had
any such intentions. He says he noti-
fed his creditors of his intended de-
parture and of the fact that he had
no money, burt hoped to make money
in the gold fields and settle up his in
debtedness. He also cites the fact that
he personally Informed the Record
Union on Sunday Of his purpose, and
that it was publicly announced.
His counsel rely on these and other
facts to clear him of any suspicion of
intent to evade his creditors. The
steamer South Bend does not leave San
Francisco till Thursday, and Hastings
hopes to be able to procure his release

SHOCKING DEATH.
Louis Martinez Fatally Hurt Try
ing to Get a Free Ride.

Yesterday afternoon an italian
named Louis Martinez died at the Re
ceiving Hospital from the effects of ter
rible injuries received a short time be-
fore while trying to board a moving
train at Perkins.
While trying to swing himself under
a freight car and upon one of the
trucks he fell to the track and the
wheels ground his legs to pulp.
The injured man was brought to the
city and taken to the Receiving Hos
pital, but City Physician Nichols and
Assistant Ogden saw at once that moth
ing could be done for him except to adj
minister an opiate to relieve him of his
terrible pain While he lived. This was
not long, for the poor fellow died short
ly afterward.
Deceased was a young man and
labOrer. When he was taken to the
hospital he was conscious and told those
attending him that his mother in Sici-
ly had been begging him to return TO
her, and his only regret was that he had
not done so.

San Francisco's Chinatown is world
famous Few tourists consider their trip
complete without including a tour of
this quarter No other city has its
equal San Francisco has population
of three hundred thousand. which in
cludes fifty thousand Chinese. China
town proper is about two miles long and
a half mile wide In this area is a city
by itself. They have their swell mer-
chants with their dozen wives, their
coolies, slave girls, opium joints, under
ground dens, lottery shops, Joss houses,
stores, etc. Though dirty place, 1t is
still very picturesque, and once in the
midst of it, one would imagine ones self
in an Oriental city. Chinatown has
long afforded a fertile field for the mag
ination of dramatist, but until Francis
Powers wrote '"The First Born" the
field was neglected. Mr.. Powers stud
led the place. and evolved a play that
made such a success that it ran for three
months at the AlcaZar Theater. He has
taken for his theme the love of Chi
naman for his first born male child, and
interviewer a tragic plot. The wife of
Chang Wong, a See Yup highbinder
elopes with his rival, Man Low Yek,
Sam Yup Merchant. Chang Toy, the
first born of Chang Wong, is living in
Chinatown with his father. The guilty
wife and lover steal the child: the ia
Their pursues them, and in the struggle
the child is killed. Chang Wong follows
his rival, and the little drama ends with
the killing of Man Low Yek by the man
he has wronged.
The pathetic story of the slave girl
and the lives of a learned doctor, a pipe
bowl member, a vender of olives, a Chi
natown guide and other incidents, are
the side lights of the story. The tragedy
is in one act and two scenes.
There will be twenty-five people in the
cast, a carload of special scenery, cos
tunes, etc. We are promised the orig
inal company.
Preceding the Chinese play, the COM
edy, Lost for a Day." Will be given.

TWO TREATIES RATIFIED.
An Amendment Made to Their Ex-
tradition Clauses.

Washington, Jan. 2S.-The extradition
treaties with the Orange Free State and
the Argentine Republic were taken up by
the Senate this afternoon, on a motion to
reconsider. and after a short debate were
ratified. The discussion relative to the
treaty has been on the stipulation, said to
have been inserted at the request Of the
President, requiring either government
without the exercise Of discretion to give
up its own citizens on demand, in proper
form, from the other contracting party
The Senate amended the text some weeks
ago 50 as to deny the surrendering or
the citizens or subjects of the country
against whom the demand was made
This action was unsatisfactory TO the
state department, and the Senate was
asked to reconsider the conventions. As
a result Of the discussion the Senate to-
day permitted its change to stand, but
added a clause which made IL discretion
airy with the surrendering government
whether 1t should give up It's own citizens.
As thus amended the treaty was finally
ratified,

A DRAW IN TEN ROUNDS.
Burge and Connolly Have Furious
Bout at Birmingham.

Birmingham, Jan. 2S.--The match be-
merly of St. John, N. B., and later of
Boston, for $1,000 a side, took place before
the Olympic Sporting Club here tonight,
and resulted in a draw. The men were
matched to fight twenty rounds at 144
pounds. At the end of the tenth round
both men were too weak to fight longer,
and the referee declared the fight drawn.
Burge fought at 143 pounds and Con-
molly at 1888. During the afternoon Burge
was strong favorite in the betting, the
odds on him being to /. Goode, Hyams,
Cook and Howe were in Burgess corner
and Kelly. Rose, Brierley and Foley acted
as seconds for Connolly.
The fighting was very fierce from the
start. Connolly led the fighting at a tre-
mendous pace, but he was stopped repeat
edly by blows on the face. After five
rounds, in which the exchanges were
about even, Burge landed a crushing blow
on Connolly's neck, knocking him down.
The latter, however, was on his feet again
in eight seconds and Burse wac sst going
IN to finish the flght when time was CALI
ed. Connolly recovered with marvellous
rapidity from the effects of the blow,
which had come so near knocking him
out, and in the next round he landed sew
era blows which made Burge groggy. The
spectators were wild with excitement
when they saw the favorite in this condi-
ton.
At the end of the ninth round, both men
were terribly weak. but both were game.
In the middle of the tenth, the manage
ment declined to allow the fight to pro-
ceed further, and the referee therefore
stopped the men and declared the battle
draw.

BILLET POOL no BREAK.
Its Formal Dissolution to Take Place
at Pittsburg To-day.

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 2S.-The great pool
of the steel billet manufacturers of the
American Bessemer Association, regard
ed for time as an invincible trust, will
almost beyond doubt be formally dissolved
at a meeting to be held in Pittsburg to-
morrow. The trade has been canvassed
on the proposition to prevent external
competition, and to throw the business
into the hands of larger concerns by pur4
chasing the allotment of all the small
firms, which became dissatisfied with the
pooling arrangement. This canvas has
been in charge of a special committee,
which will report against the plan being
continued. At to-morrow's meeting,
checks will likely be drawn and returned
to the members for the amounts deposited
by them, as evidence of good faith when
the combination was first formed.
However, while there is no probability
of continuing the organization, there will
likely be some plan devised to shut out
the brokers. Nearly all the firms, except
the Bellaire Steel Company, have sold
their output for six months ahead, so
that as far as they are concerned, the
brokers cut but a small figure. These
sales were made at figures ranging from
SIS to SIG. so.
