CHINESE CREW WENT WEEPING.
Walls and Shrieks at Courts Deci-
sion.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. August 1O-A
dramatic scene was enacted in United
States Commissioner Heacock's court room
when 1t finally dawned upon the twenty
four Chinese who deserted the German ship
Tolosan, that they would have to go back
to the vessel. They had listened with
anxious faces while the negotiations were
made between the Chinese vice consul and
the German consul
When their representative finally an
nounced that he had done all he could for
them and their case was hopeless, a con-
certed wall of despair went through the
court room. Some of the Chinese threw
themselves on their knees before the vice
consul and wildly implored him to save
them from a voyage back to China on the
Tolosan. Others cast themselves PROSTATE
and beat their heads on the floor, tearing
their hair in a frenzy of mingled rage and
despair. United States Marshal Elliott and
his deputies tried in vain to restore order.
Sobs, curses, shouts of vengeance, cries of
anger and declarations of defiance echoed
through the court ROOM 1t was a quarter
of an hour before the men could be quieted
When the time arrived to take the men to
the Howard street wharf to embark in
launches and be taken to their ship there
was another uproar.
Many of the Chinese refused to get up
from the floor. even after they had been
handcuffed and had to be lifted bodily
They were handcuffed in pairs, and twelve
of the most unruly were fastened together
by chain. They were loaded into express
wagons, and. guarded by federal officers
started on their journey to the Howard
street wharf
The Chinese were then taken aboard the
Tolosan in launches. The German officers
the men who had testified against them at
the hearing.
