SECOND SUIT STARTED
AGAINST NJ. III. DE YOUNG
Contractor Sues Owner of the
Chronicle for Balance Due
for Work Done

Suit was brought yesterday by Glad
ding, Mclean & Co. against NJ II. de
Young, owner of the Chronicle building,
for &26.bi7.42, the balance alleged to be
due on a contract for labor performed
and building materials furnished, to the
value OF $62.3ol.42. in the construction
Of the new De Young building In Kear-
ny street. This is the second suit
against the owner of the Chronicle
building, the former action having been
started In mechanics lien proceedings
Andersen claim was for $2s.s02.74. BY
permission of the court 1t was compro-
missed for s1s.5o0.
Gladding, Mclean & Co. had a con-
tract TO furnish and place tiling and
fire proofng in the new Chronicle
building. After the fire and earthquake
the cost of material increased and dis
put arose between the contractor and
De Young over the payment for the
work and materials. De Young paid
$35,7s< on the claim, and this suit is for
the recovery of the balance
F. c. c. Andersen had q similar con-
tract with De Young, and he, too. was
affected by the earthquake. He died
before his claim was settled and the
administrator of the estate put In q
claim for $2s,so2.74. Under the Ander-
sen contract the contractor was respon-
sibIe TO g. certain extent for damage
done to the work before the building
was accepted. On that account the es-
tate agreed to compromise for s15,500.
Judge Graham, in whose department of
the superior court the lien was pend
ing permitted the estate to compro-
mise In order that claims against it
might be settled without delay.

POLICE BOATS ENGAGED
Rigid Rules Will Govern Trips
to the Fleet

To act as auxiliaries to United States
revenue cutters In patrolling and po-
licing San Francisco harbor while the
feet is anchored here six big ocean
tugs, three of the Spreckels line and
three from the red stack line, were
chartered for the government yesterday
by Inspector Bulger.
Rigid rules will govern small craft
in the bay during the two weeks of the
fleets stay. So stringent will be these
regulations that the number of pas
sengers each launch is allowed to carry
by government permit will be reduced
in every instance. Boats allowed or
dinarily to carry $50 passengers will be
limited to 100, and in the case of small
er craft even greater proportionate re-
ductions will be made.
Contrary TO ordinary regulations also
steamboats, In the -harbor will be given
right of way over sailing vessels. This
rule is aimed at prohibiting owners of
small sailboats from entering them in
the business of carrying passengers to
the warships and thus increase danger
of collision and accidents.
At least SO launches and steam craft
will be pressed into service in the pas
senger traffic during the fleets visit.
Fifty cents will be the round trip rate
to the battleshps. On children's day
pupils from the public schools will be
carried at 25 cents each.

70 marry at the time when the cere-
monr at Carson took place.
Ellsworth, according to Sheriff Veale's
letter, is very bitter against his former
wife and is determined TO press GRIM
fnsl proceedings against both her and
Arats- The latter also has rendered
himself liable TO prosecution for per-
jury under the laws OF the state OF

81 600 fine The four men were con-
victed of fraud in furnishing the new
capitol which cost the state about
sIs,0Oo,0 600 instead of $4,000, 600. the fig
ure at which the contract was esti-
mated.

CRUISER SQUADRON
WILL BE RETIRED
Swinburne's Cracks to Give
Crews to Swell Numbers
Manning Battleships
Charleston, Milwaukee and st.
Louis Stopped by Accidents
During Speed Tests

The cruiser Charleston, Rear Admiral
st. Louis and Milwaukee arrived yes
terday from Magdalena bay and Joined
the cruiser Yorktown and the destroyer
Perry in man of war row. The Albany
and the Preble will be here in day or
So and the second squadron of the
Pacific feet, made up of these seven
ships will be assembled for the last
time. The second squadron is to be
dissolved and the ships taken out of
active service. They will not all be
taken out of commission, but the crews
will be reduced to skeleton size and
the ships held in reserve.
The st. Louis and Milwaukee will
leave in week or 10 days for Puget
sound, where all but few of their
Officers and men will be transferred to
the battleship Wisconsin. The ships
Will remain on the sound and will be
used as Show ships during the Seattle
exposition.
The Charleston and Albany will re-
tire probably to Mare island and be
similarly bereft of officers and men,
while the Yorktown will be taken out
OF commission after the big naval dem
onstration, when Secretary Metcalf VIII
use the little cruiser as review ship.
The reason given on the flagship yes
terday for this retirement of the cruis-s
ers was that the officers and men were
needed the battleships, which in
case of trouble would be more effective
than the ships of lighter armament
Admiral Swinburnes ships are be-
Heyed to have made the best record of
any squadron in the navy at the recent
target practice, and all hands are anx-
iously waiting for the report of results.
On the run from Magdalena the ships
were ordered to devote eight hours OF
the trip to a full speed endurance trial,
but what promised to be an exciting
race for the three big cruisers that
arrived yesterday developed into
chapter of accidents. They started
bravely enough and the Charleston was
hitting up % knot gait and adding
volume to the Pacific swell, when bang!
went the metal packing in a high
pressure cylinder and the Charleston
was obliged to stop for repairs.
The Milwaukee was tearing along
with a fine bone in its mouth when the
bearings that gave so much trouble
during the cruisers early trials began
to heat and the ST. Louis was left to
finish alone. The st. Louis did finish,
but while waiting for the other ships
to catch up something went wrong
with the condensers and there was
more delay.
In spite of accidents, however, the
ships made the run from Magdalena In
four days and came nosing in through
the Golden gate, glistening in the early
morning sunshine and presenting a
spectacle calculated to make the most
indifferent citizen leap to his feet ana
sing Yankee Doodle"
The three ships left here October Z.
and after target practice at Magdalena
bay paid a five weeks visit to San
Diego, whence they returned to Mag
dalena for a last crack at the targets.

WOULD VISIT JAPAN
No Invitation, However, Has
Been Extended Fleet

SAN DIEGO. March 13.-News that
the fleet will tour the world within two
months after its arrival at San Fran
cisco, May 5, was flashed by wireless
telegraphy to the 16 battleships at
MagdaIena bay late tonight by the
government station at Point Iona.
There is every reason to believe that
it was received on board the vessels
with great satisfaction. The official
announcement, coupled with the early
date of starting on the second half
of the worlds greatest naval maneuver,
will give keen pleasure to the men al
ready proud of the notable achieve
ments of the feet.
Admiral Evans, who will retire dur
ing the fleets stay at San Francisco.
was expecting some official word from
Washington on the subject of the fu-
ture movements of the fleet, and II
was in view of this, and to enable the
department to prepare its program.
that he sent the message the night Of
his arrival off Magdalena that the ships
could start on any mission at days
notice. and We're in far better shape
as to machinery and efficiency of crews
than the day of sailing from Hampton
roads.
The fact that but two months is to
be allowed between the arrival of the
fleet at San Francisco and its departure
to the far east indicates that no serious
repairs are needed by any of the ves-
sells.
The cruise, which today's announce
ments tend to make all the more not
able, is more than ever the topic of
conversation here. Some comment is
occasioned by the fact that no men
ton is made of the possibility of a
visit of the battleships to Japanese
waters.
A formal invitation from Japan, it is
said, might be complied with during
the stay of the fleet in the Philip
pines or following the completion of
fall target practice.
