Pivotal Point of the Game.

Captain Fronck. at the suggestion Of
Gonding, executed a neat coup at this
stage by putting White on second to run
for Gonding. That was the deciding point
for a moment later, after Raglan had
walked, Belden made his second hit Of
the inning and the speed of White, a
faster runner than Gonding, enabled him
20 score from second on Beldens hit, chas-
ing Graham in before him and tying the
score. Seven runs In one inning, and what
a shout went up from the dyed-in-the-wool,
who had foresight enough not to run
home before the game was over!
Morgan had been substituted for Bies
before Belden came to bat, but that made
no difference to the Central Lacquer, for
he hit him just the same as he would
have hit Bies. After that inning Town
send was sent in to catch and right well
he performed not making a bobble.
Ragan seemed to get better as the game
progressed although in the tenth inning
things looked bad for a time He hit the
first man up. and Austin's error. the first

son, let Corhan go to third and Smith to

was too eager and, with plenty of time

CONGREGATION
TURNS SLEUTH

While a prayer meeting was in
progress in the East Crescent Gen.
ter schoolhouse Sunday evening
they heard heavy fall outside.
Some of the worshippers hurried
out and saw a loaded wagon near
the barn. Several sacks of wheat
were missing from the barn and
were found in the wagon. Evident
ly the thief got frightened at the
noise he made, for he was nowhere
in sight.
After removing the king bolt
the worshippers started back to
the prayer meeting. A form was
seen to glide swiftly out of the
shadows, jump onto the. wagon
and grasp the whip.
Hi, hi, stop theft" shouted the
worshippers.
The thief whipped up the team,
and, of course, as the king bolt was
removed, TIE horses pulled away,
leaving a man on the wagon.
1t developed later that this man
was Captain George N. Madison, a
rancher of the community. He was
arrested and in Justice Hinkle's
court this morning pleaded not
guilty. He was convicted of lar
ceny on trial and fined $50 and
costs.

The colored men ran into a So

MAKE RAKEOFF
ON BOY S PAY
TElEGRAPHERS SAY OF
FlClAtS OF WESTERN UNION
DIVIDE MONEY INTENDED
TO PAY FOR DELIVERY
SERVICE.

The charge that Western Union
stockholders and messengers en-
ployed by the A. ID. T., as the de-
livery service of the Western
Union is known, are jobbed by a
combination of Western Union of
ficials composing the A. D. T., is
made in a circular sent out from
the telegraphers' union headquar-
tiers in New York.
It is claimed that Pres. Clowry,
of the Western Union. holds $50
600 worth of stock in the A. d. I.
in the name of his chief clerk.
General and district superinten-
dents and managers of the West
ern Union are also permitted to
take this stock. Then Clowry, as
president and general manager OF
the Western Union, makes mes
sage delivery contracts with Glow
ry as stakeholder in the A. d. T.
Under this contract the Western
Union pays the A. d. T. three cents
on kilograms. The messengers get
cent and a half of this. The bal
ance goes to the Western Union Of
ficials composing the A. D. T. They
simply cut in two and pocket one
half of what the directors of the
Western Union set aside from the
company's funds to handle the de-
livery end of the business. The
officials reap a fat rakeoff from
money intended for the messenger
boys.
AS the telegraphers state the
case the messengers are rightfully
entitled to the three cents on eacn
message instead of half that
amount they are now receiving
through the intermediary organiza
ton of the A. D. T. The scheme is
denounced by the teIegraphers as
one of the same sort for which
Gaynor and Green are now in
prison

KUhER|6 70 SAIL
AFTER THREE DAYS
viii Be Fumigated But
Not Subjected To
Quarantine

The quarantining of the steamship
Kumeric created quite a bit OF eX-
citement this morning among the
japanese who plan to leave in her for
Vancouver, as 1t was at first gener-
ally reported that she would be held
in quarantine here for about fourteen
days. 1t turned out later on, how
ever, that she will be held only about
three or four days, namely, just so
long as 1t will take to fumigate the
vessel. In the meantime neither her
officers or her crew will be allowed
ashore, but the vessel will be allowed
to sail, without a clean bill of health
of course, and for this reason it is
likely that she will be placed in
quarantine on her arrival at Van
couver.
SO far only few officials have been
allowed on board, namely: Secretary
Atkinson, w. f. Dillingham;, r. w.
Breckons and few others, but these
were all vaccinated before they We're
allowed to board her. AS far as the
Board of immigration and the Immi-
grafton Station authorities are con-
cerned, the vessel might as well be at
sea, as being in quarantine they will
have nothing tc do with her. 1.-The
Kumeric is, as matter of fact, con-
tnf 1u of nC fa n
concerned" said r. C. Brown, of the
immigration Bureau this morning.
1--WE will have nothing to do with her
passengers before they are released
from quarantine"
The passengers will be held on
Quarantine Island for fourteen days,
Unless some new cases develop, in
which case they will be held for four
teen days after the last case. 1t is
understood that there are about fifty
cases of the disease on board. but

though they show the rash.
The Alameda brought among her
passengers the Federal inspectors of
hulls and boilers. They will inspect
the Kumeric, as she is to carry pas
sengers from an American port, and
will report on how many passengers
she may be allowed to carry.
G. +. Chillingworth stated this
morning that the hui which has char
tered the vessel was not worried
about the reports that some of the in
tending passengers wanted their
money back because the vessel arriv-
ed so much later than had been ex-
pected.

are to depart on or about June 90"

his money back can have it. We

Official Investigation, 1t
Is Said, May Be
Held

'The Chinese theatre has been Sc
cured as a meeting place for the Van
couver-bound Japanese emisrants,'
said Negoro, the Berkeley University
man today. "A large meeting OF the
emigrants will be held in the theatre
this afternoon at 3 o'clock to discuss
further moves in regard to the delay
of the departure of the Kumeric. Prac-
tically all the Vancouver-bound Japan
csc are broke and for this reason they
desire to hear suggestions from their
friends. They asked me to speak to
them, and | have consented to do so.
There will be many other speakers
at this meeting and all of the emil
grants, numbering some 1900 people,
will be present.
Negoro says that the main feature OF
the meeting will be the reading and
the approval of an appeal to Consul
Saito, calling on him to protect the
interest and welfare of the Japanese
emigrants. Something should GER
tainly be done for the protection of
these emigrants," said Negoro. Il
will call on Consul Saito today and
lodge my complaints before him. The
.emigrants are anxious to know wheth-
Ter they are going to Vancouver short
ly. They have paid their passage
money and the time for the Kumeric s
departure has long passed by. Those
who represented to them that the Ku-
|mcric would leave here on the 26th
have not done anything towards help
ing them out of the hole they are now
in.
A prominent Japanese said this af-
ternoon that Consul Saito may order
an official investigation of the treat
ment of the emigrants by the runners.
