novel in all respects. The building. 75

out in citrus fruits. Director General

40 STREAMS Are
HURLED into AIR

The fire department contributed its
share TO the gayety of the natives by
giving a pumping demonstration yes
terday afternoon at the end of Howard
street wharf with the two city FIRE
tugs. David Scannen and Denis Sulli-
van AS lifters of water the fireboats
are in the Hercules class and but for
the fact that the water drawn from
the bay all returned to its source, the
demonstration would have been ac-
complished by one of the lowest tides
on record.
Several thousand spectators gathered
as near to the fire tugs as was deemed
wise and in some cases too near for
comfort. At one time forty streams
were going fun blast at the same time.
The air was filled with rainbows and
water and before the performance
ended three or four hundred people, in
cluding many women and children,
were soaked to the skin. The iremen
derived much entertainment fro this
feature Of the show and played no fav-
orites in their distribution OF salt
water.
Fire chief Tom Murphy directed the
drill and while it was on, any fire fool
ish enough to have walked into that
battery of liquid extinguisher would
have died instantly

BARS NOT down,
DECLARES MARTIN
Saloons Admitting Women Will
Be Punished, Says Chief
of Police

Despite the infraction of police regu-
lations by several downtown saloon
keepers. who have admitted women
patrons into their places during the
three days of the Native Sons festival,
Chief of Police Martin declared yes
terday that the bars were not taken
down in this respect and that proof of
any such irregularities would call for
severe dealing by the department..
Last night, even with the carnival
spirit at its height. there were. fewer
instances of such open disregard for
regulations than Friday. when many of
the highest class saloons in Market
street made no secret of the fact that
they were serving women patrons.
Chief Martin said that a careful watch
was being kept and that any reports
received would be investigated
promptly.
WOMEN AT BARS
The laxity that prevailed during the
hours of the parade Friday afternoon
was continued at night and during the
early hours yesterday morning. In half
a dozen places along Market and the
nearby streets women Wed with men
for places at the bar and clinked their
glasses with their male companions in
round after round of drinks.
Chief Martin yesterday denied any
personal knowledge of the infractions
committed Friday, but said that any
which had occurred were entirely with
out police sanction in any way and that
no permits had been issued to any
saloon keepers to allow women in their
places. Moreover, he said, there had
been no tacit understanding that such
freedom of action might prevail and
that no policeman on any beat had
been authorized to treat such matters
differently than at any other time.
LAxITY UNSANCTIONED
"If any saloonman says that he has
received permit to allow the patron
age of women in his place or claims to
have received the sanction of the po-
liceman on his beat to do such thing
/ want him to be brought before me,
said Martin. TT is different in the
cafes holding licenses to admit women
patrons, of course, but no order or
permission looking toward any laxity
of the usual rules regarding the
straight saloons has gone out from
this office. 1t is very possible that
some saloon proprietors have taken ad-
vantage of the prevailing carnival
spirit and the fact that most OF the
policemen in the downtown districts
are engaged I'm handling the street
crowds to break the rules. We are not
permitting this to go on with our
knowledge or consent, however; and
where such cases are brought to our
attention will act just as we would at
any other time.
