THE QUARANTINED DoRIC IN THE STREAM.

lom's skin was found to be 'as clean as baby's," presumably meaning be- fore the baby had been engaged in making mud pies.
 When the State officials returned they at once gave orders for the release of the Doric from quarantine. All the men on board were taken off in the tug Mil len Griffith, and as the sixty stevedores saw release before them they all gave three hearty cheers for the State Quarantine Department.
 The Doric was docked at D. m. and the work of discharging her cargo will be continued at an early hour this morning.
 The outcome of the great feud, which it was feared at one time would involve Chief of Police Lees in a deadly con- f1ict with the United States army and thus weaken the national defenses in case of an attack by the Spanish, is a distinct victory for the State quaran- tine officials, and Dr. Hill intimates that so far as the clash is concerned the affair is not yet at an end. He thinks it possible suit may be brought to establish the rights of the local board in regard to the alleged surrepti- tious spiriting away of men within the jurisdiction of the home organization. Drs. Rosenau and Blue say little, and seem to be awaiting developments.

Drs. Rosenau and Blue, the Federal quarantine authorities, have concluded to be good and not try to take any more playthings away from Drs- Chalmers and Hill. the State officials In the ratio of their newly acquired righteous ness they have been rewarded, for to- day the Doric is at her old dock and the prisoners have all been released from custody. But the end is not yet. " Word was sent to pr. Hill yesterday by Dr Rosenau that if he would sonde- scend to honor the quarantine station at Angel Island with his Adonis coun- tenance, he should be accorded every courtesy in the power of the Federal Government. Plainly speaking, this meant simply that the Federal officials had decided they were a little rash in taking Hellom and Ruxton. the two smallpox suspects, from the confines of the great city and county of San Francisco, and thought it best to dose the god of war with a little soothing syrup.
 | Accordingly at D. ID. Chalmers and Hill, accompanied by Health Officer O'Brien, went to Angel Island in the tO and O. Stea mship Company's tug, the Millen Griffith. They were received in state, and examined the two men whose removal from the Doric caused the whole trouble. In the expressive language of pr.

 RIVALS FACE John Keenan Wanted for As sault With a Deadly
 Weapon.
He Was Jealous of tho Attentions o Thomas Carr to Pretty Jennie
 McGillen.

Thomas Carr, who is employed at the Union Iron Works. appeared in Judge Joachimsen's court yesterday morning and swore to a complaint charging John Keenan with an assault with a deadly weapon The bonds were fixed at 5000.
 Carr had his nose and lip slit open Thursday night by Keenan at the corner of Langton and Bryant streets, and 1t took several stitches and considerable time for the doctors in the Receiving Hospital to make him at all presentable again.
 Jealousy was the cause of the murder been rooming in house at 239Z Lang ton street and soon became infatuated with the landlady's daughter. Jennie Me Gillen. Jennie soon reciprocated his af- lection, and they were looked upon as lovers Before Carr made his appear ance, Jennie had been keeping company with Keenan, but he got the cold shoul- der and it maddened him. He made no secret of the fact that he would kill any man who came between him and Jennie, and Carr was warned to look out for him.

occupied by Mrs. Nellie Comstook, the wife of a wellknown marine engineer, and 1t Is stated that the young man had frequently visited Mrs. Comstock, as she had been we'll acquainted with the mother of the deceased. About two months ago Mrs. Orr died, and it was money to her three sons, but the rumor Is neither denied nor affirmed by the brothers, Albert and Fred F. Orr
 The facts surrounding the death of the young man are rather mysterious, but from all facts that can be discov- cred he was under the influence of liquor when at the residence of Mrs. Comstock. Since the death of W. Orr's mother he has not been working at his trade, which is stated to be a willow worker, but had resided with his brother at Howard and Fourth streets, and had frequently visited Mrs. Com stock, not from the family friendship alone, but from the fact that Mrs. Comstock has been attending to mat ters concerning the estate of his mother.
 When Orr visited the home of Mrs. Comstock he also met Mrs. Teale, and after 8 rather lengthy visit he departed and Mrs. Comstock amused herself playing the piano. It was during this time that the young man, feeling that he was unable to return home in his condition, noiselessly re-entered the house and went to the front room. where he attempted to light the gas and then fell prostrate on the lounge, where he was afterward discovered dead The case was reported to the Coroner's office by Joseph Saunders, who owns the property at 411B Lyon street He occupies the lower fiat of the building
 From reports given by neighbors of Mrs. Comstock, the house has not been run in as quiet a way as would be ex- pected, but these rumors are strenu- ously denied by all parties connected in the affair Both brothers of the dead man state that both Mrs. Comstock and Mrs. Teale were warm friends of the family and had taken an interest in their affairs. The body was taken to the undertaking parlors Of Suhr & Co.,, where it will be prepared for burial.
 Mrs. Comstock. Mrs. Teale and the two brothers visited the undertaking parlors last evening, and a pitiful sight was presented when the remains were reviewed by friends and relatives. The deceased was a member of Acme Court No. 51 F. of A, and was well liked. He was also connected with the Amalga- matorS' Union.

BUSH AND ITS
 "BOULEV VARD' Difference of Opinion Ex- ists Among Property
 Owners.
ItIS Claimed the Scheme Means to Leave the Thoroughfare
 in Perpetual Rest.
The Majority of the Residents Favor Leaving the Street Open to Traffic
 or Having an Electric Line.

Property owners and residents on the line of Bush street are not unanimous on the question of having that street turned into boulevard.
 The action of the Supervisors in de- claring it a closed business thorough fare does not by any means meet with the approval of the majority of those owning property on it's line, as the pro- test filed with the clerk of the Board of Supervisors would show. In terms of lineal measurement along the street 14. 900 feet frontage is represented as be- ing against the scheme, while 400O feet favor it. This, the opponents claim, is of itself sufficient to defeat the propo- sition according to law and the estab- lished rules of the Supervisors.
 In this fight, if it may be so termed. the opposing forces will draw the full force of their influence on the Super visors at the meeting tomorrow after noon. Both sides are ready for the fray, and it may be safe to surmise that the board rooms will be crowded at the meeting, as each contending element will desire to be heard in advocating its side of the proposition.

Washington, Jan. 1s.-The senate COM
mittee on finance voted today to report
the Teller resolution declaring for the
payment of the national bonds in silver
as well as gold. The vote stood to ..
The resolution is practically the same as
the Stanley Matthews resolution adopted
some years ago.
Those voting for the resolution were:
Vest, Jones of Arkansas. White, Wal

of Nevada, Silver Republican. and VOL
colt, Republican.
Those against were: Morrill,, Allison,
Aldrich, Plat of Connecticut. and Bur-
rows.
Senator Jones of Nevada was not pres
ent but his vote by request was inserted
by his order.
Mr. Platt of Connecticut, and Mr. Nor
rill of Vermont, desired to be understood
that the report of the finance committee
relative to the Teller resolution was not
unanomous.
The Democrats replied by citing the
efforts of Secretary Gage and ex-senator
Edmunds to have the committee keep the
question in a way which looked to plac-
ing the country definitely upon gold
basis. They contended that it was the
evident purpose of the administration to
secure legislation in the interest of the
single standard whenever opportunity
offered and avowed their purpose of Sc
curing declaration in favor of a double
standard method, as was proposed in this
bill.

We're reminded that they had voted for

Stanley Mattheys twenty years ago, they
admitted such to be the fact but said
in explanation of their present attitude
that conditions had changed.
Senator Wolcott did not vote with his
Republican friends but heartily support
ed the resolution, saying he would vote
for it every time it came up.

Mahan at length in support of his posi-
ton that the islands were natural out
post for the United States and necessary
TO the proper protection of our western
coast and Of our general commorce in
case of war
Mr.. Morgan predicted that IL the United
States did not take advantage OF the pres
ent opportunity to acquire the island1
there would be war between this country
and some other power within ten weeks
It was not. he said, within the bounds of
possibilities. in view of the present Eu-
ropean competition for territory in Asia,
that the Hawaiian Islands should be al
lowed to remain independent for any
length of time after the United States
should finally announce their determine
ton not TO make them a part Of Ameri-
can territory.
Does the senator from Alabama mean
TO say" interrupted Senator Pettigrew,
that the Hawaiian government would
voluntarily seek the protection Of some
other power and thus forego the great
advantage those islands now enjoy in
their reciprocity arrangement with the
United States, which results in our remit
ting to them annually not less than So
00O,o00?"
To these questions Senator Morgan re-
piled that the recopricity treaty had been
negotiated for the purpose of giving this
country cheap sugar. He said that it had
been of greater benefit TO the United
States than 1t had been to Hawaii, be-
cause it had accomplished its purpose of
making cheaper one of our great COM
modities and one of the necessities of
every household.
1--WE want" he said, mot only the sugar
from Hawaii. but cheaper coffee as well,
and that and many other necessary arti-
cles could be grown in those islands"
The senator displayed a number OF large
maps. from which he contended that the
islands were in the roadway of commerce
between our western coast and the Orient,
and said that all ships. whether laden with
the articles of commerce or the munitions
of war, must necessarily pass them in 60
ing to and fro between this country and
the Asiatic coast, and thus. he said, the
nation which controls Hawaii will control
the commerce of the east. In closing, he
said that failure to annex the islands
meant inevitable bloodshed. and the re-
sponsibility for that bloodshed would rest
upon the senate of the United States for
its failure to perform it's duty at this crit
zeal hour in the history of the two coun-
tries.
