The ladies assure us there is a vast
difference IN the quality OF the net and

but the lens made no special note OF
that. Iu shape and outline the camera

ASK FEDERAL AID
AGAINST CRIMPS
FOREIGN VESSELS HELD UP BY
DEMANDS OF BOARDING HOUSE
MASTERS.

SAN FRANCISCO, May %. The aid
of the Federal Government is to be III
voked to break up a combination of
sailor clearinghouse masters, who for
some time past have been compelling
vessels to pay heavy blood money
before they could secure crews. Some
of the prominent shipping people OF
this city have gathered sufficient evil
dence that will warrant the United
States District Attorney taking charge
of the matter and bringing the crimps
to the bar of justice. The sailor board
ing house masters became so bold in
their operations that they lost sight of
the fact that they were restraining
commerce and thus made themselves
amenable to the Interstate Commerce
Law.
The combination of crimps is not re-
cent. 1t has existed since the early
days of the port began, but at no time
before did it reach its present stage
when a vessel is compelled to remain
idle in the harbor until the eXorbitant
money demanded is paid. In past years
they have demanded as high as $50 per
sailor, but, at present., they are asking
$40 for each man. One British captain
secured four green hands a short time
ago, but when he asked for the rest
of a crew, the clearinghouse masters
compelled him to pay $40 for each of
the four men that he had picked up.
The British ship Drummuir, which has
been loaded and ready to sail for South
Africa five days ago, is unable to sail
because her owners will not consent to
paying heavy fee demanded.

FEES VOLUNTEERED
SAYS FALLEN BOSS
DECLARES HE NEVER SOLICITED
A DOLLAR. BUT WAS TEMPTED
BY MAGNSTES.

SAN FRANCISCO. May 23.-Abra-
ham Ruef has testified before the grand
jury that the corruption money paid
by the millionaires of this city was
unsolicited by him. Under oath he has
stated that the capitalists and business
men interested in the public service
corporations sent for him and offered
the brides. He has testified that when
he meant to be straight he was tempt
ed to take the money offered.
In all my dealings with the United
Railroads, the Home Telephone Com
pany and the San Francisco Gas and
Electric Company l never asked for a
single dollar. The money was offered
to me unsolicited.
These were the final words uttered
by Ruef on the witness stand before
the Grand jury. They sounded the
keynote of his entire confession, his
contention that the corporations vol
untered the brides to gain their ends.
AS a result of the testimony of Ruef
with the corroborative testimony of
other witnesses, the Grand jury is In
possession of positive evidence to prove
that the bribery schemes originated in
the minds of the millioiaires who were
seeking favors from the city.
In several cases Ruef has testified
that he was sent for and the money
offered without the asking. No price
was named by him. The amount OF
the brides was suggested by the bribe-
givers. They gave the money in a
lump sum to Ruef He apportioned il
between the Mayor and the Board OF
Supervisors.

The meeting of the Union Feed Com

the purpose of taking action on the
matter of allowing a right of way
through their property for the extern
sion of Bishop street to the waterfront,
did not result in final action, and an
other meeting will be held some time
tomorrow for final action Owing to
certain data not being at hand, the di
rectors decided that they could not act
intelligently, and so postponed action.
The commission appointed some time
ago by Governor Carter to report if it
is practicable to open Bishop street
through to the waterfront for ST., 500
made a report by special request Of
Acting Governor Atkinson yesterday
afternoon, in which it reviewed the
situation substantially as reported in

WELL KNOWN CHINESE INTER
PREFER SECURES $4,000 FOR
DAMAGES INFLICTED BY MOB.

Joseph Goo Kim, the well known
Chinese interpreter who sustained
very severe wounds at the hands of a
Chinese mob near Lien Chow in Oc-
tober, 1905, has been well paid for his
injuries. The Chinese Government
was called upon to pay to the victims
or their families sums aggregating
100000, OF this total Goo Kim re-
ceived about $1,000 taels, amounting
to about $4,000. Kim has left the
money with his wife in China
The story of Goo Kim's narrow es-
cape was related soon after his arrival
from China. He was with some mis-
sionaries. The Chinese mob besieged
the missionary compound and forced
the several families including some
Christianized Chinese to seek refug,
in flight Goo Kim fought against the
mob. Some of the flying crowd tool
refuge in a cave. Goo Kim managed
to get away. He sustained some
wounds in the head and about the bod!
and arms.
DR.. e. G. MaclSle, one of the mis-
sionaries who was attacked with Goo
Kim, passed through Honolulu on the
S. S. Doric some days ago, en- route
from the Orient for San Francisco.

TAFT TO .
CUT OUT HAWAII
PLANS TO SAIL FOR PHILIPPINES
BY WAY OF SEAITLE-WILL
ATTEND ASSEMBLY.

WASHINGTON, May 23-To accom-
modate Secretary Taft the date for
the assembly of the first Philippine
legislature has been fixed for the lat
ter part of October. AS announced to-
day, the Secretary's plans to leave
Seattle on the steamship Minnesota
early in September. He will be ac-
companied by Mrs. Taft, Master Chas.
Taft, his son, one of his secretaries,
and a messenger. The steamer will
touch at Yokohama on the way out,
and arrive at Hongkong early in Oc-
tober. The Philippine elections are to
take place July 20, and the first as
sembly must meet within ninety days
thereafter.
Secretary Taft expects to remain in
the Philippines only about two weeks,
so he will not be able to visit the
southern islands of the archipelago,
but will spend most of his time in Ma
nila and will make a visit to Benguet,
the summer capital, with the special
purpose of inspecting the fine public
road which the insular engineers re-
gard as their greatest work. Definite
arrangements have not yet been made
for the return trip, but Secretary raft
expects to be in Washington before
the Christmas holidays, and in season
to present to Congress plans for the
legislation desired by him for the
next session.

SAN FRANCISCO
HAS BEER FAMINE
BREWERY WORKERS GO ON A
STRIKE AND KILOGRAMS OR
RELIEF SENT BROADCAST.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 24.-Gee,
that guy must be a Nevada millionaire;
he's opening a bottle of beer heard
on Fillmore street in 1908.
In less than a week there will be
no more beer in San Francisco. The
wise owners of cafes have seized the
few remaining kegs and have stored
them way down deep in their cellars.
Small portions are doled out to favor
ed patrons but all the while the pro-
tenance the precious fluid gurgle down
the dust-lined threats.
kilograms for relief have been sent
broadcast to every town and hamlet
that has brewery from Milwaukee to
Odessa. But before the relief trains
can arrive there will be a reign Of
thirst in the city, made all the more
uncomfortable by the fact that the wind
is lifting the dust at a lively rate
down town.
At any other time the city might
have weathered a beer famine, but now
that so many threats are dry after
confessing and so many more drier be-
cause they have not confessed the
pangs of beerlessness are almost too
hard to bear The fire eliminated the
frankfurter that used to be placed
temptingly on the lunch counter, the
car strike made cross-country walkers,
for while out of those who were least
addicted to exercise, but not even the
gloomiest pessimist looked forward to
beer famine.
What a change in the social life OF
the city is impending when the beer
famine at last has the city in its grasp.
In the supper rooms after the ball
I there will be heard small talk of this
sort:
Wont you have a glass of steam,
Mr.. Van Mazuma-Dough?"
And over the bridge table will be
heard the whisper, What delightfully."-
sharp steam Mrs. De Smyth-Jones has
at her functions!
champagne will be relegated to the
cheap groceries. The order there as
the patron lays down his nickel will
be, Gimme a schooner of champagne
and draw it sharp"
For beer will be such a rarity that
champagne will be beer and beer will
be champagne.
A practical politician discussing the
bearing of the famine on the coming
political campaign, said: Take my til
there amt going to be any campaign
How can any one do politics withou
beer? You might as well try to ruI
a benzine buggy without gasoline"
Most of the Pilsner parlors are nov
down to their last kegs and it is I
melancholy sight to see the devotee
of the foamy fluid gathered before tn,
last barrel.
Dolefully and sobbingly the requiun
of the last keg arises:
"The wine may be fine, but a col,
stein for mine and then it ends Il
the sob Never again"
The beer famine, like the wolf,
knocking at the doors of all Pilsne
parlors.
