(Bv Charles Starr

The talk at the opening exercises
Monday morning was given by Rev.
| 5. K. Sweeya, of Urmia City, Persia.
He spoke on education in Persia and
also gave some interesting and anus
ing incidents connected with his
learning the English language. The
talk was appreciated by the entire
school. Such talks benefit the pupils
more than double the time spent in
text book study.
The Garfield pupils have been asked
10 do what they can to insure the sue
cess of the benefit entertainment for
the high school athletic association.
Such work draws the two schools
more closely together and encourages
pupils to continue in school after
completing the work in the grammar
school.
The Indiana educational exhibit for
the ST. LOUIS fair has been completed
and is now being put up. The work
from Garfield school is quite distinct,
as this is the only school in the state
IN which the study of Latin, German
and algebra is introduced in the
grammar grades and the work done
on the departmental plan. Crawfords-
vile is now adopting this plan, but, as
this is the first year there has not vet
been time for thorough test. They,
however, have included all the seventh
year in the grammar school and are
III this respect a step in advance of
Richmond. There is need of an addi-
tionefo Garfield building so that 7B
grades may be included and the man
ual training department better
provided for. It would also
be possible to give more attention to
physical training if the additional
room was given

that he loved somebody else; he had
tried to live with his wife, but Simply
could not, as his love for her was
dead" She told of his receipt of letters
and kilograms from the unnamed rival
of his wife's affections
An instance was related of his en-
gagement one evening to play cards
with his wife and party of friends
He did not appear. she said, and later
she went to dine with the friends. They
were returning home between 1 and 2
o'clock in the morning when she saw
Gregory on the street with another
woman. The sight made her i'll and she
was sent home. Nervous prostration
followed and she was confined to her
bed for two weeks. She says the cir
cumstance became a matter of gossip
among her friends.
Regarding the detectives that were
on her trail. Mrs. Gregory said that
'he was bound and determined to get
a divorce from me and to find some
thing against me, but he could not. 1
did not believe him when he told me
he had employed detectives. He admit
ted that their reports proved nothing"
The evidence of Hughes was to the
effect that Gregory had told him that
he intended TO get a divorce from his
wife and was infatuated with another
woman.

James Tyler, and besides the decree OF
separation awarded Mrs. Gregory the
custody Of her daughter, Vivian, $50 a

The resolution of the Grand Jury and
Lilienfeld were presented to Presiding
Judge Lawlor last evening asking him
to instruct the District Attorney to
prosecute the Election Commissioners
to have them removed. The Judge took
the matter under advisement, explain
ing that he wished to look into the law.
He would not say when he would be
ready to take action.
The Commissioners are not to escape
accusation of violating the law in con-
nection with their appointments of pre-
cinct boards. At meeting of the d.
rectors of the Merchants Association
yesterday it was decided to have
charges preferred by complaint in the
Police Court should Judge Lawlor or
the District Attorneys office fail to set
the machinery of law in operation.
The matter was placed in the hands
of the attorneys for the association
with directions to act forthwith in the
event that either Judge Lawlor or Dis
trict Attorney Byington should refuse
to act. The resolution of the grand
jurors, passed in lieu of an indictment
because a minority was able to block
the latter, is not regarded as having
much authority in law to compel action,
and the directors of the Merchants
Association were determined that the
Commissioners should be brought to
account.
The whole situation as to uprooting
the conspiracy of ballot-box suffers
was discussed by the associations di-
rectors. There was vigorous unanim-
ity in the decision that every resource
of the organization should be expended
If need be to protect the purity of the
ballot-box Without regard to politics
or any consideration whatever, the SEN
timent was expressed by every director
that there should be no let-up in the

FOR MISSION PARK.

For the acquisition of Mission Park,
to consist of two blocks of land, for
merly the Jewish cemetery. bounded by
Eighteenth, Twentieth Dolores and
Church streets, estimated to cost $780,
900.
For the acquisition Of land to be
used as childrens playgrounds-one
south of Market street in the neighbor-
hood of Seventh and Bryant streets,
and one north of Market street in the
neighborhood of Stockton and Filbert
streets, estimated to cost $4,000.
For the acquisition Of block Of
land for a free public library site in
and Fulton street, at an estimated cost
of $647,O0o.
These four propositions aggregate,
in round numbers, $4,000 900 and they
contemplate simply the purchase of
lands by the Board of Supervisors as
provided by law. They have been ap-
praised by former City Engineer C. E.
Grunsky and the above estimates were
made by him.
I'VE are informed that it is the in
tention of the Supervisors, as soon as
the bonds be taken, to bring con-
domination proceedings as the fairest
method of determining the exact
values and that thirty days after judg-
ment shall have been obtained, pay
ment must be made by the city.
SHOULD BE BOUGHT NOW.
I'VE believe that it is important that
these properties, involving desirable
improvements, should be purchased
now. Real estate may enhance in
value. and under the limited author
ity of the bond issue, the Supervisors
might be unable, at a later time, to
meet the increased cost. Further
more. in justice to the property own
ers, an early decision should be made.
These considerations are apart from
the important one which actuates this
association to assist in promoting the
progress of the city on lines of beauty
and adornment.
when acquired, the parks and
Fairgrounds, embracing three propo-
sitions, will be cared for by the Park
Commissioners and the library site and
even the construction of a building

The Association for the Improvement
filed a communication with the Board
of Supervisors to the effect that certain
commercial and savings banks have de-
cided to offer to buy large portion of
the bond issue for public improvements.

of lands to connect Golden Gate Park

it is said will buy 5000, 900 of the rest of

ing $780, 900 were offered for sale by
the Board Of Supervisors bids aggre-
eating only S277,000 were received. The
communication on the subject follows:
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. IA, 1904
TO the Honorable the Board of Su-
pervisors Of the City and County of San
Francisco-Gentlemen AS an associa-
ton interested in the improvement and
adornment of San Francisco, we regret
that certain contemplated improve
ments, involving no possible waste of
public funds, should have failed for
lack of buyers for the citys bonds.
Among the propositions voted upon and
approved by the people and for which
bonds will be issued as soon as they
find purchasers we beg to call your at
tention to the following:
For the acquisition of seven blocks
of land between the Golden Gate Park
and the Preside. bounded by Thir-
teenth and Fourteenth avenues, to con-
meet the Preside and the park, at a
cost estimated at $328,000.

GREAT Loss TO TRADE.
Several Ofthe Oriental Lines Refuse
Freight Until War Closes.

Several ofthe Oriental Lines Refuse
Freight Until War Closes.
San Francisco, Aug. 1.-The order
given Saturday by Manager Schwerin
of the Pacific Mail. Steamship Compa-
ny, ~suspending all freight to Oriental
ports until the close of the war, prac-
tically puts an end to exports to the
Orient, as the order is concurred in by
the Oriental and Occidental Steamship
Company and the Portland and Asiatic
Steamship Company, which is the Or
egon Railroad and Navigation Compa
ny's China line out of Portland. The
order includes freight to Japan, Korea,
Siberia, Manchuria and also to China.
This cutting off of all trade between
here andt he Orient will mean a seri-
Gus loss, not only to the steamship
companies, but to the mercantile world.
Americas trade with the countries
mentioned amounts to $50, 600, 900 a
year. Leading exporters here say that
the embargo will paralyze the Oriental
trade of San Francisco and perhaps of
the whole coast. The damage it will
work if not o rescinded will be in
c%alculable. Large orders on hand made
with a time limit for delivery will
have to be sacrificed and in the end
trade DETECTED to other quarters.

over Three Million Tons, Be-
ing an Increase of More Than
Half a Million Tons Over the
Preceding Year.

Washington, Aug. 2.-The geologic.
al surveys estimate of coal production
in the United States for the calendar
year 1908 shows Washington far ahead
of all other states west of the Rocky
mountains. Its total production for
the past year reached 8, 196, 1913 short
tons, an increase of 515, O59 tons over
the preceding year.
Oregon last year produced 81, 144
tons. an increase of 25,496 tons for the
wear. The survey values last years
coal production of Washington at $5,-
1884, 939; that of Oregon at 1921 OBI,
and Idaho $13,250.
The forthcoming report of the geo.
logical survey will show that the Uni
ted States exceeded all previous records
in the production of coal in 1908. The
total amount of the output Of the coal
mines of the country during that year
was 359, ,311 tons, ar increase of
nearly So, OOO, 900 tons, or 10 per cent
over the preceding year. The value of
the product is given at 1904, 100, 1888,
an increase in value of 38 per CEN
over the preceding year.

To the stranger within the gates OF

ESCAPED JAP FLEET.

VladivOstOk Squadron Outmaneu-
vcrs Enemy and Gets Home.
Tokyo, Aug. 1.-Onoe again the
Russian Siberian squadron has CON
pletely outmaneuvered the Japanese
eet, which was sent to cut off its re-
treat to a Russian port and the squad
ron has succeeded in winning back to
its harbor after asuccessful raid along
the entire Japanese coast.
The three Russian cruisers sailed
through Tsugaru straits late on Satur-
day afternoon, and although they
passed within gun range Of the wait
ing Japanese fleet, they were not OBJ
served and reached Vladivostok har-
Dor, according to report, late on Sun
day.
The report that the Russian vessels
are foul and therefore unable to attain
a high rate Of speed are plainly un-
founded, rs when they passed through
the straits they were steaming at an
eleven knot gait and apparently could
have exceeded that figure had it been
necessary.
The Japanese did not lay mines in
their course because it would have in
terfered with interisland commerce,
which is of great value to the nation
at present. Apparently the Russians
knew this and took every advantage
of it.

ASSAULT ON PIT. ARTHUR
Three Days Of Fierce Fighting,
With Heavy Losses on
Both Sides.

Chefoo, Aug. "A desperate three
days assault on the inner defenses of
the northern and eastern sides Of Port
Arthur has failed, according to ad-
vices brought 10y two junks which ar
rived here today.
A Russian who escaped from Port
Arthur via Pigeno bay on the night of
July 80 states thai the earth trembled
under the terrific cannOnading which
began at 4 a. m. July 26 and ended
during the night of July 20, when the
battle ceased.
A Chinese who arrived here on a
separate junk confirms the Russians
statement that the Russian killed and
wounded during the engagement num-
bered between 5000 and 5000.
The Japanese in their repeated as
saults against the eastern forts on the
hills, in the barbed wire entangle-
ments and over bitches, displayed IA
natical bravery. They were moved
down by shells and bullets and the ex-
plosion of mines under their feet.
Their losses are estimated at 100000.
The Russian refugee declares that
the Russians held all the eastern forts
leading to Golden hill and that the
Japanese, shattered and exhausted, re-
tired to the eastward.
AS related by the passengers OF the
two junks, the Japanese attack, which
began from Kwokau before daybreak
July 26, was directed against Kikwam,
Kinkitun, Kinklshan and Pchtoushan
north, lying near shore. The Russian
outposts were driven back. In the
meantime Admiral Togo shelled the
forts at long range, but the return fire
of the forts kept his ships at a safe dis
lance, rendering the cooperation OF
the fleet ineffective.
On the morning of July % the
sian fleet steamed out, keeping and
the protection of the Golden hill guns.
The Russian vessels did not fire on the
Japanese and soon returned to their
anchorage.
The Russian hospitals at Port Arthur
are said to be swamped.
