FLEET SAILS FOR
FAR EAST TODAY
PATROLS ROUND UP CREWS
FOR VOYAGE
Rear Admiral Sperry Receives Mes
sage from Governor Frear, WISH
ing Officers and Men
Safe Trip

BY Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 6-Shore
leave for the men of the Atlantic bat
tleship fleet came to an end at o'clock
this morning and the few sailors that
have been seen about the city streets
today were attending to the last duties
peculiar to the sailing of naval vessels.
The patrols were out in force all day
and are still on duty tonight, rounding
up the last of the crews, but the ma
jority of that work was done last night
and there are few of the sailors who
will be left behind when the fleet hoists
anchor and gets under way at o'clock
tomorrow afternoon.
San Francisco will take no official
notice OF the departure of the fleet.
No holiday has been declared, but for
all that there will be thousands of
patriotic Americans posted on the cliffs
that flank the approach to the Golden
Gate, and the big fighting ships will
not look in vain for hearty cheers and
fervent good wishes when they head
out into the Pacific on their way to
the far east.
1t is probable the feet will adopt the
same cruising formation that was fol-
lowed out on the trip around from the
Atlantic, and with the Connecticut
showing the way will steam across
the ocean in single file, at proper cruis-
ing interval between ship and ship.
This will string the sixteen battteships
out over many miles of sea andDby the
time the last ship sweeps out through
the Gate, the Connecticut will be hull
down to the western horizon, a dwind-
ling smoke obscured speck against the
declining sun.
From Honolulu the word has come
that a rousing welcome is in store for
the men and officers who are working
the ships on their way around the
world. Never in the history of the
islands has such a sight been seen as
anchor in the narrow fairway, and
Honolulu is planning to make 1t red
letter occasion for all concerned.
BY means of the auxiliary vessels al
ready ploughing their way across to
the islands. far in advance of the fight
ing ships the Hawaiians will be kept
fully posted on the progress of the fleet
and when the men on the Connecticut
first spy the dim outline of Diamond
heade the Outpost of the group, they
will doubtless see host of pleasure
craft sweeping out to them bearing the
greetings of the warm hearted
islanders.
Today Rear Admiral Sperry, COM
mander of the fleet, received the fol-
lowing message from Governor Frear
at Honolulu:
Hawaii wishes you and your Off
GERS and men good voyage and
awaits your arrival with the keenest
interest and heartiest welcome"

SAN DIEGO, July "a special to
the Union from FL Centre says: The
outbreak of the Mexican revolutionary
party appears to have its seat at Mexf-
cali, typical frontier town, just across
the border from Calexico.
The Mexicali people fear the revolu-
tionists will make an attack upon the
town and attempt to capture the Gus
toms house and postoffice. Rurales
and other riders have been called from
as far as Tia Juana to assemble at
MeXicali. Extra forces of rurales
patrol the town. All shops are ordered
closed at 10 o'clock, and Americans
have been warned that they woulo
better go to C&1eXico, on the American
side of the border.
Business places, the customs house
and postoffice are guarded. An attack
on the Mexicali postoftice by robbers,
supposed to be reVolutionists, was re-
pulsed recently. The robbers escaped
to the American side, but it is reported
that they have been reinforced and will
make another attempt.
Manuel Cuesta, the Mexican consul
at Calexico, has received several threat
ening letters.
Inhammatory circulars have been
placed in the hands of Mexicans in
Calexico and MeXicali, expressing
hatred for the Mexican republic and
President Diaz.
A party of five Mexicans went to the
Mexicali postoffice recently and asked
for postcards bearing the picture of
President Diaz. After receiving the
cards they refused to pay, spat on the
presidents picture and tore the cards
up. Before daylight the following
morning (Thursday) the attack was
made on the postoffice.
The Mexicans wrenched a paddock
from the strong box and broke the lock
Of the safe. Postmaster Galaviz fired
at them and they fed, escaping to the
American side. Then came the report
that another raid is contemplated.
AS a precaution government funds
and other valuables have been taken
to Calexico and placed in bank vaults.

[. B. STURGES TO
RULE COMSTOCKS
Coal Baron Becomes Director in
Ophir, Virginia Console
dated and Mexican

BY the election Of George 8. Sturges
and Frederick Swan to the directorate
of the Ophir, Consolidated Virginia and
Mexican mining company yesterday Ed
ward b. Sturges. one of the coal barons
of Pennsylvania practically became a
director IN all three of these Comstock
mines
Edward S. Sturges is the son of
George B. Sturges, and Frederick Swan
has been his representative on the
coast. Sturges' interest in the Com
stocks is very large and dates back for
25 years. His business in, the east is
so large, he said yesterday, that he was
unable to give the Comstocks his per-
sonal attention. His son has been in
vestigating the three mentioned prop
critics for over a year.
In mining circles the election of
young Sturges and Swan is looked
upon as tantamount to the control of
these mines by the coal king 1t is
also stated that 1t means the begin
mig of more active development of the
mines Sturges said yesterday that he
thought there had not been sufficient
energy displayed in the management
Of the mines and that they should have
been put on a paying basis long ago.
The Sturges idea of development is
to be followed out in the new manage
ment and opportunity is to be given
him OF obtaining fuller control of the
mines If he so desires

DAVIS RULING AFFECTS
EAST STREET PROPERTY
He Holds That State Control
Extends to Inner Line of
Sidewalk

BY an opinion rendered yesterday to
the board of harbor commissioners by
its attorney, w. H. Davis, property
holders and lessees along the west line
Of East street will lose the benefit of
the cellar space under the sidewalk un-
less they can prevail upon the board to
grant them permission to use 1t. For
a long time the exact boundary line of
the property falling under the jurisdic-
tion of the harbor board and belonging
to the state has been in dispute, and 1t
was this dispute that called forth the
ruling. The boundary line as inter
preted by Davis is the inner line of the
sidewalk. The ordinance under which
the state holds the property reads that
its jurisdiction holds from the waters
of the bay to the western line of East
street. 1t has been the contention of
property owners on that side that the
curb marked the edge of the street
Davis ruling extends it % feet
At the board meeting yesterday the
long drawn out fight made by the mem
bers of the Ariel rowing club for quar-
ters at some point along the water
front was definitely settled by permis-
sion being granted to build their boat
house on Central basin. at the San
Francisco drydock wharves. The club
intends to erect handsome quarters.

Editor San Francisco Call-Dear Sir:
Referring to the articles In the issues

and s, headed Eastern Money in Big
Lighting Project" and STANDARD OIL
Have Control" we desire to state most
positively and authoritatively that in
so. far as said articles allude to the
Standard Oil Company as being in any
way interested in the matter they have
no foundation in fact whatever, and in
justice to our company we would ask
you to so state and thereby remove any
false impressions which may have been
caused by their publication.
The Standard Oil Company has not
had in the past, neither has 1t at the
present time, any such interest, nor
does 1t contemplate the requirement Of
any interests whatever in any of the
gas, light or power companies men
toned in the said two articles, and we
trust that this statement will be defini-
tive and conclusive. Standard OIL Com

.SHR|NER SCOUTS
GATHER UP DATA
Mobiles Sent South to Study
Circus Methods Are Now
Ready to Report
They Bring Back Many New
Ideas for Use at Charitable
Entertainment

With a group of mobiles of the Mystic
Shrine back from a pilgrimage to Los
Angeles. where they went to study
the inner workings of circus.
and another group indefatigably study
ing circus stunts in soft sand lot
at Nineteenth and Folsom streets, al
most certain success may be predicted
for the Shriners' circus, which will be
given by Islam temple during the week
beginning April 27. The temple has
chartered the Sells-Floto three ringed
circus for that week and will present
the aggregation in the lot bounded by
Market, Mission. Eleventh and Twelfth
streets-object, charity.
Among those who went to Los An
geles was George Filmer. who studied
the peanut and lemonade concessions
which he is to operate locally; George
h. Van Orden. who will promote the
side shows; Colonel William Edwards,
who is to be the general manager of
the affair; Clarence NJ. Wolfe, the eIe-
phant trainer to be, and A. F. Schleich-
er, the director general of amuse-
ments.
Wolfe, in undertaking his elephant
training stunts had narrow escape
from injury when he was introduced
to Mamma" one of the elephants of
the show. To show her respect for
Wolfe. Mamma" picked him up in her
trunk and tossed him 40 feet
Potentate Henry Ascroft was in
charge and Eugene Korn was another
Shriner In the southern pilgrimage.
The party returned to this city yes
terday.
AT the Folsom street lot circusmen
are instructing Shriners in the tricks

to be clowns are w. E. Lucas, H. w.
Thrope, e. A Lowe and James Soren-
son. Those who are out practicing for
the equestrian numbers are E. G. Koe-
Mig, Ralph L. Cohn and ]. II. Olcovich.
DR.. Rowland E. Hartley stood by to
see If the services of a surgeon were
required.
The Children's hospital is to be the
chief beneficiary of the circus, with the
general charity fund of Islam temple
also to be benefited.
