CHINESE CAUGHT
IN LEGAL NET

AS the result of testimony adduced
yesterday in the hearing of a case in
Judge Hebbard's court, the attention
of the Grand Jury is to be directed to
several Chinese, who, it is alleged
have perjured themselves in attempts
to secure young Chinese girls from
rescue homes in which they have taken
shelter Attorney Carl Lindsay was
asked by the court to bring the matter
before the Grand Jury and has prom
ised to do so.
The case in which the prevailing con
dition of affairs was brought to light
was that of Tam Yam, a pretty little
16-year-old Chinese damsel, for whose
release a writ of habeas corpus was
applied for by Lee Boo. Lindsay APP
peared in behalf of the Methodist
Women's Christian Rescue Home
which has recently had charge of Tam
Yam. The girl testified that she was
IS years old and that she knew this
to be a fact because she had been so
informed by a Chinese woman named
Lee Tam Shee. other evidence showed
however. that the girl is in fact but Is
years old.
Lee Boo testified that he wished to
get the girl out of the home for the
purpose of marrying her, admitting IL
licit relationship with her. An affidavit
signed by him in another case in which
ne inquired recently was produced and
it was shown that he swore at that
time that he had wife living in Los
Angeles, that child had been born to
them recently and that he had left this
infant on the doorstep of a local hos
pital.
Judge Hebbard and Lindsay cues
toned Boo after his misstatements and
secured admissions of conditions con-
corning the slave trade which it is be-
lieved will be sufficient to convict him
and probably several others of his kind
The writ of habeas corpus was denied
and Tam Yam was remanded to the
custody of the Rescue Home.

COMP LAIN Of POOR
CAR SERVICE

The Supervisors public utilities COM
mittee resumed consideration yesterday
of the complaint of the San Francisco
Labor Council of poor street car service
given by the United Railroads.
w. p. McCabe, secretary of the Labor
Council. stated that many workingmen
were being 'docked'' daily in their
wages because they were late as the
result of the blockading of street cars.
McCabe said there were sixty or more
cars in the barns which could be oper-
ated if the corporation paid the wage
schedule of union electrical workers.
F. V Meyers of the Parkside I'm
provement Club complained of the in
adequate service on the McAllister-
ated westerly from the carhouse.
TREY l.. Ford, attorney for the United
Railroads, said 1000 men were being en-
ployed reconstructing the lines and $50
cars would arrive in weekly INSTALL
ments of ten from st. Louis beginning
January L. The sum of S2.000.000 was be-
ing spent for rolling stock alone, Ford
said. He invited the Supervisors and
members Of the Labor Council to go on
tour of inspection over the various
lines to see what work was being done
and to make suggestions for the better
ment of the services Ford said the
matter of wages was being considered
by the Arbitration Board. whose find
ings would be honored by the company.
McCabe called attention to the f. :
that nothing was being done to put the
Mission tracks in condition, and Ford
told McCabe to make his complaint to
the engineering department of the rail-
roads.
Commissioner of Public Works Egan
suggested that the company cooperate
with street contractors TO expedite the
rehabilitation of the service. Super
visor Gallagher announced that he had
been informed that the Powell-street
system would be running in a few
weeks.
The committee continued the hearing
until next Friday afternoon. when Gen
eral Manager Chapman of the United
Railroads Will be asked to be present
