Several large real estate deals for

the Union Oil company of Santa Maria,
which built large oil tank in this
city last year, Is getting hold of the
land for the purpose of running a large
oil pipe line from Moore's landing,
about five miles north of this city, to
its oil tank. A request was made when
the big tank was built to lay a pipe
line out over one of the city's wharves,
but this was refused on the grounds
that the spilllng of oil from ships be-
ing unloaded would injure the bathing
facilities, and since then the Union Oil
company has been looking around for
a right-of-way for a pipe line to its
oil tank.

SANTA BARBARA, Jan. 2L-Yes-
terday was pay day OH the Pacific
squadron, and hundreds of men and
officers on the three war vessels now
in port received their checks About
1000 men received $4,000. The Chicago's
pay roll for the last thirty days
amounted to $9575.
The pay clerks of the Chicago and
the Pacific fleet state that about fifty
per cent of the marines and sailors
who receive their money through their
hands bank the greater part Of it with
the government. They receive six per
cent interest and within a few years
they are thus enabled to save up q
bank account.
Another scheme is provided to en-
able the men to put their earnings to
good use. Many of them have rela-
tives and an allotment" list is kept
for this class. They voluntarily agree
to have part of their salary sent home
every month. The money is deducted
from the months salary and forwarded
by the government clerks to the de-
sired party. Half of the sailors on
the Chicago have their names on the
allotment list. There has been $12, 952
forwarded on the allotment system by
Pacific squadron officers during the
last three months.
The sailors contribute part of their
earnings toward athletic funds and for
other purposes. At present the men of
the Chicago are paying for the death
of mule accidentally shot in Hilo,
Hawaii, by some of the men, and in
order to keep up the good reputation

NEW YEARS. END
BOYS CREATE MUCH HAVOC IN
CHINATOWN
Police Had to the Club Mob to Keep
Order-Thousand paraded the
Celestial Quarter, Giving
Vent to Mischief

After four days of celebration the
Chinese new years period was formally
| closed last night, while a mob of five
thousand people thronged the marrow
streets, battered in doors, tore dowE
gas jets and many performed every
possible act known to the hoodlum
category.
In spite of the able Efforts of Police
Officers King, Strobe, McGraw and
Mack and Special Officer O'Banion
crowds of young men and boys dashed
up and down the streets. it is charged,
forcing their way into private homes
insulting the celestials and destroying
property.
Some of the worst offenders were
school lads, who entered stores and de-
stroyed property. In several places the
gas jets and fixtures were torn from
the ceilings and walls and, while the
streams of gas poured into the stores,
the celestials fled and the gas men
were called in to stop the leaks.
Time after time the officers rushed
mobs away from the various restau-
rants and tong halls, but, because of
the fact that there were many women
and children in the crowd, the usual
methods to be employed with mobS
could not be carried out.
Aside from an occasional beating adj
miniStered to some of the worst often
ders, the officers were practically help
less, but they kept the people moving
constantly and in that way prevented
any serious trouble.
Early in the evening a crowd of young
men and boys congregated around the
alarm box at Alameda and Marches
sault streets and some one turned in an
alarm of fire. Several companies re-
sponded promptly and panic was mar
rowly averted
At midnight the crowd had drifted
away and Chinatown had settled back
into its old-time lethargy with great
sigh of relief. t4
