POLICE PROTECT
FIRE REFUGEES

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 15.-Today
two policemen patrol each of the pub
lie parks and squares where refugees
are living with orders from Chief Di-
nan to arrest any employe of the re-

move refugee houses or tents OF their
occupants.
This is the first step taken to wrest
the administration of relief from the
relief corporation and to place it in
the hands of the mayor and board of
supervisors.
The action of Chief Dinan was taken
under instructions from Mayor Schmitz
and follows close on the passing to
print of an ordinance prohibiting the
collection or eXaction of rentals for the
use or occupation of structures or i'm

except by a duly authorized official or
agent of the city and county,
The ordinance provides that the COL
lection of these rents shall be a misde-
meanor, punishable by $500 fine or six
months imprisonment, or by BOTH
The action of the supervisors is said
to be founded on the protests of the
uuited refugees against the payment
of the nominal rental charged for refu-

eide to purchase them.

ates all the street car systems upon
the north and west sides, and $21, ,000, 900
for the property of the Chicago City
Railway company, which controls the
transportation upon the south side.
1t was decided by the committee that
it will soon as it is possible recommend
to the city council the passage of an
ordinance allowing the purchose of the
properties at the price named.
Mayor Dunno when the action of the
committee was reported to him, de-
clared that in his opinion the council
would adopt the recommendation of
the committee and the city Would then
proceed to own and operate the street

Dspite the fact that the committee
will recommend the purchase of the

that an agreement may yet be reached
for the granting of the franchise upon

Tapis
By Associated Press.


SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 15.-The de-
velopments in the international contro-
versy over the segregation of the jap
anese school children today Indicated
that the United States government is
preparing to take drastic action through
the federal district attorneys office
against the board of education.
Exactly what form this legal pro-
cedure will take has not been made
public, but it is now officially intimat-
ed that it will be an injunction suit
brought in the United States courts to
restrain the board of education from
carrying out its order segregating Jap
anese pupils in the Oriental school.
Assistant Attorney James o. Rey-
nolds arrived today in this city from
Washington to look into the situation
for the federal authorities and he spent
the greater portion of the day in close
consultation with United States Attor-
ney Devlin.
All parties concerned maintained abb
solute secrecy as to the result of the
conference. but it is known that the
case of the segregation of the Japanese
school children, although it was gone
into in its every phase, was not the
sole topic discussed.
After the conference the assistant dis
trict attorney refused to make any
statement as to what action the au-
thorities at Washington contemplated,
or to express any opinion as to the
legal procedure in the case.
He left on late train tonight for
Washington, where he will make a re-
port to the attorney general on the
situation in this city.
United States Attorney Devlin stated
that he-avpected to receive definite in
strr Ifs as TO the manner in when
he will proceed in tho. case at any min
ute and he has intimated that an in
junction restraining the board of edu-
cation from carrying out the segrega-
tion may be applied for in the federal
courts.

remorselessly for allowing herself to be
given away in fashion papers.
"There," she says, imam sees woman
as the fool rampant. She is depicted as
semi-bald, holding her wig in one hand,
ready to put it on.
"She is shown in a half nude state,

them as to what a painted, powdered,

PORTLAND. Or, Dec. 15.-The street
car system of Portland, owned by the
Portland Railway, Light and Power
company, is practically tied UP as a re-
suit of strike Of motormen and con-
ductors inaugurated this afternoon on
the refusal of the company to sign an
agreement submitted by the men for an
increase in wages, the abolishment of
the system of photographing the plat
form men and demanding that the COM
pany shall not discriminate against the
union.
The strike bears a serious aspect to-
night Thousands of men and boys
gathered at the various stations and as
fast as the cars reached a transfer
point a rush was made for the men,
who were obliged to desert their cars or
be beaten.
Several riotous demonstrations occur
red the gang of boys, led by hoodlums,
smashing car windows, bending trolley
poles so that the cars could not be ope-
rated, and otherwise destroying prop
erty.
AT Second and washington streets,
one of the principal transfer points in
the city, the mob broke loose and did
considerable damage to the cars.
A Chicago detective named Cosser
attempted to dissuade the mob from
damaging the company's property and
was set upon. He backed against a
wall and in imminent danger of being
hurt drew his revolver and fired into
the air.
The police seemed powerless to con-
troll and mob and in the excitement
following the shot fired by Cosser he
got away from the rabble. A number
of arrests were made.
At other points along the trunk lines

car men who refused to desert their
cars and in several instances "loyal'

being gotten into the barns as rapidly
