TRADE TURNED WESTWARD.
Goodwin's Mission to Wash
ington Beginning to Bear
Fruit

At a meeting of local merchants held
In the rooms of the Manufacturers and
Producers Association yesterday the re-
port of Manager Goodwin of that asso-
citation, who was recently sent to Wash
ington to press the claims of San Fran
cisco as a purchasing and distributing
point for Government supplies was read
and approved. The results that have
been obtained in this instance and hereto
fore by concerted action of the merchants
in using all legitimate efforts to increase
this class of business in this city prove
conclusively the assertion often made
that when they all pull together for the
common good of San Francisco the re-
suit is a substantial benefit.
The report shows that new business was
secured from the Interior Department by
an enlargement of the purchases for In
dian agencies and schools on this coast
worth about $50, 900 per annum and oppor-
tunity secured for local merchants to bid
on classes of supplies for that department
hitherto purchased in the East.
In view of the large increase in the
naval establishment on the Pacific, argu-
ment was made by Mr.. Goodwin before
Mare Island Navy-yard should be placed
on the same plane as the New York yard
as a purchasing and distributing point
for naval supplies, and while no decision
was obtained on this point the way has
been paved for favorable action in the
near future. Due credit is given in the
report to Senator Perkins and Represen-
tatiyes Loud and Hilborn for their efforts
in behalf of San Francisco.

ed with the mother. and when notified
of the little ones death did not go near
the house until he had fortified his cour-
age and secured a bodyguard of two
friends. The neighbors were notified of
his arrival on the scene by the volume
of vile and abusive language that issued
from the Tyrrell house. They say Gray
was the author of the racket, and
add that his infreQuent visits to the place
were always marked by similar out
bursts.
In fact, the neighbors give the Tyrrells
good name and say Mrs. Adams seem
ed to be very fond of the dead child. The
Tyrrell family consists of the father,
John Tyrrell, who is employed at Laurel
Hill Cemetery; George, who Is employed
by Camp & Crillon; John, Jr., Louis, Har-
rison and Edward in addition to Mrs.
Adams and her two remaining children.
TyrrelPs former wife is the wife of Cor

and the police, but it did not work The
first kick came from the United Carriage
Company and 1t was followed by an OBJ
lection from one of the large stablemen
the police were well satisfied with the
plan, but kickers are to be found every
where, and a few kickers spoiled this
scheme. The result naturally was the
usual confusion as soon as the play was
over.
In order to facilitate the working of his
plan Sergeant German presented the fol-
lowing circular to Mr.. Morosco with the
request that il be read out between the
acts:

These arrangements are to continue
during the opera season.
Owing to the objections as before stated
the order was not put in force, but Ser

Special arrangements will be made for
parties having private carriages.
When the order is put in force in this
city all parties will be expected to drive

stand along Third street and hacks will

POLICE WERE FOILED.
ATTEMPTED to Introduce the
Eastern Hack System
but Failed

The police last night made an inef-
fectual effort 10 introduce the system of
calling hacks, now in vogue in the East,
at the Grand Opera-house.
After Monday nights performance hun
-dreds of hacks were crowded in the mar
row confines Of Mission street. People
crowded out of the theater, each man
looking for the hack that brought him
there. regardless of the convenience Of his
neighbor, and the result was general con-
fusion and a blockade of the street.
Sergeant German and Corporal Bowlen,
the local inspectors of hacks, according
" put their heads together and decided
TO introduce the Eastern check system
This system works as follows: When a
party drives up in the hack he is handed
q card with a number printed on it. The
hackman is also handed a card bearing
a similar number and he takes his place
in line. When the play is over the first
man out shows his card, and he is as
signed TO the first hack in line, whether
II is the one that brought him there or
not The driver has a card to show,
however, and this card can be cashed in
at the office of the carriage company
bringing the man to the theater. In fact,
the system is similar to that of banks in
