BAKER BEATS SALARY BILL.
Brookl,n's NO-Pass Congressman Blocks
Plan TO BENEFIT Roosevelt.

WASHINGTON. March An effort to in
crease the salary OF the President, 80 "a
TO benefit Mr.. Roosevelt. was rendered
futile by an objection from Mr. Baker
Dem., y. v in the House to-day.
Mr.. Maynard proposed the following
amendment To the General Deficiency BILL
which was under consideration: THAT
on and after March 4, 1905, the salary OF
the President of the United States snail
be $4,000 per annum and the salary OF
the ce-Preaident of the United States
shall be $4,000, and that the President OF
the United States shall. after his retire
ment from Office receive an annual salary
Of $50 600 per annum for the remainder
Of his life; and that any former President
Of the United States living at the time OF
the pa sage Of this act shall also receive
a salary Of $4,000 per annum during the
remainder of his life
Mr. Baker, make the point Of order
that that is new legislation and therefore
not in place on the Appropriation bill.
The Chairman tMr Mann. Rep. Ill)-The
Chair sustains the point Of order.
Asked the reason for his objection. MIR.

PANAMA NO PLACE FOR
AMERICAN WORKINGMEN
X. p. Cooke, Government Draughts-
man, Says White Men Cannot
Survive Conditions There.


Among the recent arrivals at the
Occidental is r. P. Cooke, an architect
of New York, who has just returned
from Panama, where he was en-
ployed in the Government draughting
department in connection with the
canal. He was invalided home and
does not purpose returning to the
isthmus. In discussing the conditions
on the isthmus Cooke says that Pan
anna is no place for a white man at
present unless he has been accus-
toned to a malarial climate. Scarcity
of food other than rice and bananas,
which are invariably served to Amer
leans in fat, and lack of proper quar-
ters for the men engaged in the canal
work, with bad water increased sick
ness on the isthmus and forced many
men into the Government hospital.
Cooke says that the high tax on all
imported goods, especially foodstuffs,
places the latter beyond the reach of
the Americans. whose wages will not
permit them to buy ordinary necessi-
ties of life. Although the Government
commission has planned to furnish its
employees comfortable quarters, pure
water and good food, it has yet failed
to effect these things and as a conse-
quence many Americans are going to
the isthmus under the misapprehen-
sion that they are to be well provided
for. On the contrary, the only places
in which men can lind shelter are in
the old shanties left by the French
commission and in tents.

LAND COMPANIES OFFICER
ARRESTED ON GRAVE CHARGE

o. w. Schwitzer, secretary of the
Pine Valley Land and Cattle Company,
a Nevada corporation with offices in
the Parrott building, was arrested last
night and charged with obtaining
money under false pretenses. An Ital-
ian named Canese Giovombotto makes
the complaint and alleges that Sehwitz-
er received $50 from him on the un-
derstanding that he should secure him
a job with the company.
According to the officers of the cor
poration, of which Jesse Orwin is pres
ident and ]. Emmett Walsh attorney,
Schwitzer has been using his office for
his own purposes and pocketing his ILL
gotten gains. The first intimation the
company had of the charge against
Schwitzer was after he had been taken
into custody, The concern authorized
the secretary to advertise the sale of
stock, but the official is alleged to have
informed would-be purchasers when
they called. at the office that, in con-
sideraticn of certain amount, they
would receive steady position. The
corporation owns several thousand
acres of land in Nevada. also several
thousand head of cattle.

BURNS MONEY
HE GAVE HER
Librada Morales Lights Her
Cigarettes With Suitor's
Four Fifty-Dollar Bills

Senorita Librada Morales had money
cites with it. She thought that four
$50 Mexican notes given in trust to her
by her sweetheart Antonio Morales,
were Confederate. In her indignation
at his giving her such worthless stuff
she sent the money up in smoke.
Antonio arrived yesterday from Mex
leo and Immediately sought his dark
eyed querida at her casa near Broad
way and Kearny street. To her he
gave four $50 bills to keep for wedding
day expenses. Librada proudly dis
played the wealth to her neighbors. In
stead of gazing at it in envy they
laughed. why, that is no good" they
said. THAT is not Americana dinero.
It's no money at ALL
''Caramba!" cried the hasty tempered
Librada. Antonio gives to me the
ha-ha and the laugh of the horse, does
he? l will show him. Behold, /, Libra
do. have money to burn. Behold, /
burn it,
With the melodramatic grace of
spaghetti opera companys Carmen,
she lifted cigarette TO her lips and,
lighting one of the bills, ignited her
cigarillo Herewith. She. smoked four
cigarettes and with them Antonios s
200 pesos also vanished in vapor.
When Antonio returned Librada re-
ceived him with the chilly hauteur Of a
frozen oyster. Come, querida," he
cried. I'VE will go and burn some of
that dinero."
1T is already burned" announced
Librada. 1T is what the Amerjcanos
call phoney.''
"Caramba" shouted Antonio. You
burn 200 pesos" And he caught his
beloved by her jet black locks and
called for the police. The lady who
had money to burn weeps in the City
Prison over the conf1agration of pesos.
She is charged with felony embezzle-
ment. Antonio will return to Mexico,
where cigarette lighters for lady
friends are cheaper.

CHAN CHEUNC
OUT ON BAIL
Justice Henshaw Of Supreme
Court Overrules Protest
of the District Attorney

Justice Henshaw of the Supreme
Court yesterday ordered that Chan
Cheung be admitted to bail N the
sum Of $4,000. The court heard
the testimony on which the Grand
Jury returned the indictment accusing
the wealthy Chinese with completely
in the murder of Tom Yick, but each
of the three witnesses acknowledged
that he had signed the agreement of
the tongs offering rewards for the
heads of all members of the "Educa-
tional Society,"" thereby placing him
self in the position of co-conspirator
with Chan Cheung and nullifying the
testimony.
Furthermore, in trials of the con-
spirators in the Superior Court, one
of the witnesses had committed per-
jury, as he himself admitted, by de-
nying on one occasion that he was a
party to the tong agreement to pay
for the murder of the Educational
men. The other two witnesses had
never made mention of Chan Cheung's
participation in the meeting at which
the rewards were offered and guaran-
.teeing their payment until the recent
e indictment by the Grand Jury, not
withstanding that there had been
several hearings and trials in court.
Justice Henshaw asked the District
Attorney whether he did not think, on
the showing made, that the prisoner
should be allowed the privilege of bail.
Byington was not inclined to dispute
the analysis of the case by the court,
but from what he knew of the de-
fendant, he said. and from a personal
conviction that Chan Cheung did take
part in instigating the killing of Tom
Yick, he would still insist that the pc
toner be remanded to the custody of
the Sheriff.
"Well hang Chan Cheung for the
murder of Tom Yick." declared Dis
trict Attorney Byington in a colioquy
with Ex-Governor Budd. after court
had adjourned.
Well show that your so-called Ed
ucational Society is a school for per-
jury" was the bristling rejoinder of
chief counsel for Chan Cheung.
Chan Cheung was released last
night on a bond Of $4,000 approved
by Superior Judge Carroll Cook.

OAKLAND, Jan. 23.-H. J. O'Keefe,
an electrician living at 654 Ninth
street, was thrown from a wagon this
afternoon in q collision with an elec-
trio car at the corner of Nineteenth

ceived injuries that will probably

O'Keefe fell upon his head and was
picked up unconscious. He was TAX
en- to the Receiving Hospital, where 1t

FINDS NEGRO MURDERER
TO HAVE BEEN INSANE
Coroner's Jury Investigates Staying of
Aged Mary Callender-Ferguson
Had a Thick Skull.

OAKLAND, Jan. pa Coroner's
jury tonight found that James Fer
guson, the negro cook who killed Mrs.
Mary L. Calender, an aged negress,
yesterday at the Calender home, 179
Third street, and afterward killed
himself, was insane.
The hospital surgeons found that
Ferguson had died from a fracture of
the skull caused by the two bullets
that he fired, one into each side of his
head. The skull was so thick that
the bullets did not penetrate the
brain, but the impact caused the ffac-
ture, which produced a fatal hemor-
rhage. This explained why Ferguson
lived for three hours after wounding
himself in such a way that ordinarily
he must have been instantly killed
