Took First tionors in
the EVA Tennis
Tourney.

AS predicted, the finals Of the
Thanksgiving tennis tourney on Sun
day last at Eva. turned out to be one
! of the best games ever seen on the
! local courts. The sky was considerably
overcast but this did not prevent the
fair sex gathering in force. and just
before p. m, only standing room was
available The players were punctual
and the umpire called time al 3 p. m.
The popular pick, Guild and Swift,
did not by any means make a good
showing in the first set and honors
easily went to Bento and Gouyeia.
Score, 6-1
The next set, however, put a differ
ent aspect on the game, and the spirit
ed play of all the players called forth
loud cheers from the onlookers, but al
though Swift and Guild played all they
knew, they We're beaten again after a
gritty game. Score, 11-9.
The next set opened very inauspi
ciously for the losing team. as the
other pair succeeded in getting a lead
of two early in the set, the score stand
ing, 81, and it was only excellent
team work, and especially Swifts net
work that gained them the first vic
tory. Score, 6-3.
The next set started we'll for the
'populars.'' but Bento and his partner
playing steadily brought honors even
and finally drew away, but the other
combination bracing up again drew
level, and it was nip and tuck for a
time. The excitement was tense, but

Chinese Burned Out in This
City Send Linguistic Puz-
zles to German Jurists
SUE FOR INSURANCE

The German courts are about to be
treated TO large amount af tea chest
literature. 1t comes about through the
San Francisco fire of last April and
the fact that there were thousands of
Chinese who write their names back
ward residing in the city when the
flames licked up Chinatown.
The clannishness of the Chinese has
caused them to give their insurance
very largely to one company, the
Transatlantic, which had the advantage
of having solicitor who had lived
many years in China and who spoke
Chinese like native.
Every house of three stories in
Chinatown had multitude of tenants,
and the contents, including ornaments,
articles of clothing and other articles
of diet. required about all the Chinese
written characters extant and great
skill to describe. Each article had to
be mentioned by name, description and
value in the proofs of loss that the
insurance companies require and each
statement had to be sworn to. before a
notary.
This flood of Chinese handwriting
was originally intended to be handed
to the agent of the Transatlantic Fire
Insurance Company in this city, but
when the corporation fatty repudiated
each and every one of its losses more
than 1000 Chinese went away sorrow
full from the Merchants Exchange
building, where the Transatlantic had
its offices. and straightway found their
way to lawyers Offices.
Chickering & Gregory alone had
small claims taken to them that
amounted to more than 100000 from
Chinese. All these claims have just
been forwarded to Messrs. Thomas &
Sutro, San Francisco attorneys, who
have gone to Germany to press the
claims OF the fire losers in San Fran
cisco. Hundreds OF thousands of Chi
nese words will now be brought to the
attention of the courts in Germany in
the insurance litigation.

T F|NDs TRAITORS IN
: CAMP OF LABOR.
Parry To Investigate Activ-
ity of Oficeholders In
Behalf of J. n. Gillett
BELL THROWN DOWN

Fire Commissioner John S. Parry has
found treachery in the ranks OF the
Labor party and he is going to stamp
1t out with heavy foot. He has dis
covered that number of office holders
in this city. who owe their good for
tune to the party of unionism, forsook
the cause Of Bell at the recent election
and did all in their power to elect Gil
lett The man from whose history the
tale of the colt Will not be effaced is
wordy with indignation and grim in
his purpose of calling together the
State and local committees of his party
for an investigation next Wednesday
night.
1t will be remembered that Parry and
other labor leaders interjected them
selves into the Democratic convention
at Sacramento and helped bring about
the nomination of Theodore Bell They
made contract to give him the union
labor nomination also. and it was on
this condition that the Napa man was
induced to accept.
/ 1t will Furthermore be remembered
what difficulty Parry and his col
leagues had In delivering that second
nomination. Resort had to be made to
rump convention after the body had
regularly adjourned. The record was
made to read, however, that Bell was
the candidate of the Union Labor
party.
When the result of the election
showed that Gillett had carried San
Francisco by something Of a plurality,
1t was apparent that there had been
traitors to the cause at work. Parry
and his associates were to have deliv-
cred a majority of thousands to Bell.
They failed, and now they want to get
even.
The investigation Wednesday night
is to be a hot affair, says Parry. He
declares that many elective and ap-
pointive officers" are in jeopardy But
he refuses to specify against whom the
inquiry will be directed.
"Ruef supported Gillett, and is he to
be investigated2' was asked.
Parry thought that the boss had in
vestigation enough on his hands these
days. "Ruef Is neither an elected nor
an appointed officer, and our charges
could not apply to him. was Parrys
answer.
"Is the activity of Mayor schmitz in
behalf of Gillett to be taken up?"
"At the time Mayor Schmitz was in
Santa Cruz the State Labor party had
not been organized and therefore no
charge can be laid against him on that
account. He was not in this city at
the time of the election and could
therefore, not have been hostile char
acter.
I'VE are giving out no names Of the
parties suspected" was all that Parry
could be induced to say.
Just how vengeance will be visited
on the administration off1ce-holders
who worked for Gillett is not clear.
but the events of Wednesday night will
be awaited with interest.

REPORT SHORT CROP

According to a report from Consul
George z. Baldwin, of Nuremberg,
printed in Daily Consular Reports for
October 9, the outlook for the hop crop
in England in 1906 was very unfa-
vorabIe. Taken in connection with a
report printed in Daily Reports for
September 20, showing an estimated
decrease in the worlds hop crop Of
1906, as compared with that of 1905,
of nearly 95,000,000 pounds (the de-
92.552, 900 pounds), this would seem
to promise an enlarged foreign demand
for the American product. In connec-
tion with this subject it is worth while
to reproduce the returns given in Con-
sui Baldwin's hop crop report just
mentioned, viz:

Estimated
ron Of la0f
COUNTRY OF
PRODUCTION.

Outside the United States-the only
country showing an increased output
the estimated hop crop of 1906 is only
q little more than one-half the guam
tity produced in 1905.
According to the published returns
of the Bureau of Statistics, the exports
of American hops during the year end
ed June 80, 1906, amounted to 13,026. .904
pounds. valued at s3.125.S00. of which
11,947,6I6 pounds, valued at s2,93S,902
went to the United Kingdom. De-
Quoting from the remaining exports
493,521 pounds, valued at $sf,733. ex-
ported to Australasia, 391.450 pounds,
valued at $70,356, sent TO Canada, there
remain for the rest of the world only
664.s17 pounds. valued at ss4.s11. 1t
thus appears that the British market
consumes nearly all the American hops
exported.
" .lether the continental countries
have enough of stock hops to make up
for the 1905 deficiencies, or whether
they will be forced to draw upon the
United States to help them out, re-
mains to be seen; but that the British
consumers Will have to import Ameri-
can hops In greatly enlarged quanti-
ties seems to be an assured fact 1t
is, therefore, of special interest to note
the countries from which the United
Kingdom imported hops in 1905, the
latest year for which complete sta
tistics are at hand.

The imports of hops into the United
Kingdom In 1905 were the least in
many years, which may be accounted
for by the unusually large imports in
1904, viz, 34,705,440 pounds, valued at
sS.S36,103 those from the United States
for that year amounting to 16,52s,06s
pounds, valued at s5,264,578. Taking
the aggregate imports of hops into the
United Kingdom for the five years end
ed December 81. 1905, would give an
annual importation for those years of
1S,905.242 pounds, valued at s4,024, 400.
which may be assumed as the normal
yearly import. although British de-
mand for foreign hops would seem to
be increasing.
Referring to the exports of Amer
lean hops to the United Kingdom for
the year ended June 80, 1906 (13,026, ,904
pounds, valued at s3.125, 5000, it is well
to note that s.326,s75 pounds, valued at
s2,l56,s00. were exported during the
six months ended June 80, 1905, which
would tend to show that the British
consumers anticipated the decrease in
their own hop product; otherwise, fu
ture demand upon the American pro-
ducers must be very large.
