There was continued activity in the market
for fresh fruits and hrn prices ruled for every
thing on the list There were no established
prices for Navel Oranges, as the market was
practically bare of supplies and dealers were
bic to obtain almost any price they asked for
what little stock was offering. Several cars,
,leIayed by the washout on the railroad in the
southern part of the State are expected today
or tomorrow Lemons Lines and Grape Fruit
were very firm with the warm weather still
stinufating trade, while Tangerfues were scarce
end largely nominal in price. There were very
few ripe Bananas to be had, but green stock
was abundant The continued scarcity and
high prices of Oranges caused an active mar
kst for Apples and the upper grades OF that
fruit were firmly held at about previous prices
Strawberries arrived from several sections and
sold off fairly. Longworths from Palo Alto

BUSINESS CONCERNS
FEELING OPTIMISTIC

There Is general feeling in COM
mcrcial circles that the retention Of
mail liners in San Francisco will be OF
short duration, and that in little
while commerce will be much as II
was before the earthquake. II Is
known that trains are operating into
Oakland, and that overland shipping is
apparently unhampered at the present
time.
W. NJ. Giffard. who represents the
Oceanic Steamship Company in Homo
zulu. was asked for an opinion on the
subject today and he replied:
1t Is simply matter OF conjecture
when II comes to saying how long the
vessels will be retained in San Fran
cisco. Local authorities there will not
permit the boats to leave at present.
Then. there is nothing with which to
load them. and II cannot be stated when
cargoes can be obtained. Offices will
have to be established. and safes will
probably have to be given time to cool,
before much can be done"

ONE GAIN FROM LOSS

Not the least of the continued cheer
ing news from san Francisco Is the
statement that the authorities will not
allow Chinatown to he rebuilt. This
Is somewhat on the same order as the
partial blessing that came to Honolulu
az result Of the plague IRE.
san Francisyu's Chinatown has been
a source Of interest but not Of pride.
II was thoroughly bad from every
standpoint. II was dirty and there was
such shine TO the thick slime tina,
It took on some Of the qualities Of the
picturesque.
Removed to another section Of the
city and forced in rebuilding to Oh
serve ordinary rules Of sanitation ana
Gr.cncy. san Francisco's Chinese col
uny will be fortunate In having civil
ICED surroundings that ought to have
Some good effect on the general moral
standard.
There will be no tears shed over the
passing of the old Chinatown Of san
Francisco. or Gny other district that
has been a headquarters for dirt and
crime

Horrible Torture
In Congo Free State

New York, April SIT was an
nornced this afternoon In peoples
meeting In the Church OF the Epiphany
than an appeal had been made to the
United States by Governor Curtis Guild,
Jr., of Massachusetts to interCedo
against the atrocities being praCticed
In the Congo Free State under the rule
of King Leopold of Belgium. Guild is

The Rev. Herbert S. Johnson, pastor
OF the Warren street Baptist church OF
Boston, said he had left his pulpit fOI
three months In order TO tour the coun'
try and obtain the facts about the ter
rlBlc crimes that are being perpetrGted
in the Congo Free State.
Il got my information" DR.. Johnson
said, from the report Of King Leo
Pold's own commission OF inquiry and
from Protestant and Catholic mission
aries. The report states chat In six
months 5000 right hands were cut on
from subjects whom King Leopold
compelled to work for him without re-
Enumeration. These slaves were guard
ed by an army whose soldiers were
provided each with chicotte. This In.
strument OF torture is made OF strips
OF green hippotamus hide, which arc
twisted and dried and made into q
whip. The spiral edge Of each strand
when the whip hardens is as keen as
o knife blade. When slave falls
short In his days work he is stripped
and held face downward, while the chi
cote is applied. Ninety lashes is tho
usual punishment, In many instances
death results before full punishment IL
noted out.
Soldiers ord, red to shoot the men
who failed to work expended their cart
ridges on game. When this was dls-
covered the soldiers were ordered to
bring back the right hand Of a slave
TOR each empty cartridge"
