NINE SHOTS FIRED IN FRISCO
HARBOR IN ATTEMPT To
LAND CHINESE FROM MANCHURIA

of the four inspectors who made the
capture. Their names are Joseph
Head, Samuel Sacket, c. j. Benninger
and P. o. Huffaker.
These men are in the search squad
of the customs department. Sunday
night they had gone to the neighbor-
hood of the Pacific Mail dock, although
it was after hours and they received
no extra compensation for the time.
Believing that quantities of opium
were being landed in spite of the rig
orous inspection of the liners, they
evolved the theory that cans of the
drug we're being thrown from the
steamers at the dock when the tide
was running strong and would carry
them to small boats waiting in the
stream. 1t was with this theory in
mind that the four inspectors went to
the Pacific Mail docA Sunday night
after the arrival of the Manchuria.
At II o'clock they heard the sound
of oars, evidently from a boat near
the stern of the Manchuria, where she
was lying at pier A. Just at that mo-
ment the lights of a passing freight
ferry boat illuminated the water and
revealed two skiffs headed south.
The inspectors made their way
across the Channel street bridge at
the foot of Third street and across
the Santa Fe tracks at China basin.
When they reached the edge of the
water again they came upon fifteen
Chinese huddled together on the dock,
while two boats were making off in
the water, Drawing their reyoyers,
the four inspectors fired on the boats,
but the men In each boat lay down and
the food tide rapidly carried them out
Of gunshot in the darkness.
Al the time the inspectors thought
that thirteen OF the capuves were
men, but later, when they had been
taken 10 the office In the ferry build.
inc II was discovered that seven of

/ termaster are supposed to have been
engaged in carefully watching the
Manchuria.
They take the position that there is
no proof that the Chinese came from
the Manchuria. They say the mem
bers of the Chinese crew are all still
on the steamer, and that all the Chi
nese immigrants, whose names were
on the ships papers, were taken to
Angel island on Sunday afternoon.
Consequently they hold that there
were no other Chinese left to escape
on the ship.
1t happens that the ranking officer
on the Manchuria on this voyage was
r. P. Schwerin, the vice president and
general manager of the company. If
all this occurred under his thoughtful
eye, it would seem to be easy under
more ordinary circumstances.
What Colonel Blnn Says.
On the possibility of fifteen Chinese
being let down a rope ladder from the
stern of the Manchuria, Colonel c. H.
Blinn, special deputy surveyor of GUS
toms, has this to say:
ut does not seem likely that fifteen
Chinese, seven of whom are women,
would be able to get over the stern of
the Manchuria without being seen.
There is one thing certain, either the
parties who landed the Chinese were
in collision with the inspector at the
gangplank, or some other person on
the boat, or else these inspectors were
asleep. 1t is about forty feet to the
water from the stern of the Manchu-
ria, and l hardly believe that all these
Chinese, especially the women, could
have climbed over the stern without
being seen by some inspector or some
one on the boat"

Oh. COOKS LAST APPEAL; SAYS
POLAR REGIONS DROVE HIM CRAZY

NEW YORK, November 30.-Dr.
Frederick Cook, the Brooklyn explor-
err, in an article which will be publish
ed in Hamptons magazine, confesses
that he does not know whether he
reached the North Pole or not. DR..
Cook, who has been in hiding for
more than year, has informed the
editors of the magazine publishing his
story that he will return to the Unit
ed States with his wife and children
December 22d in order to spend
Christmas here. DR.. Cook in his story
deals with the psychology of his ad-
venture, and says:
"Did / get to the North Pole? Per-
haps / made a mistake in thinking
that l did Perhaps l did not make a
mistake. After mature thought
confess that do not know absolutely
whether | reached the Pole or not.
This may come as an amazing state
ment, but l am willing to startle the
world if, by so doing, can get an OPP
portunity to present my case. By
my case mean not my case as a geo.
graphical discoverer, but my case as
a man. Much as the attainment of the
North Pole once meant to me, the
sympathy and confidence of my fell
lowmen mean more
Saws He Was Half-Crazed.
Fully, freely and frankly l shall
tell you everything and leave the de-
cision with you. If, after reading my
story, you say Cook is sincere and
honest; half-crazed by months of iso-
lation and hunger, he believed he
reached the Pole; he is not faker,
then l shall be satisfied"
DR.. Cook tells the story of his life
and pictures what he calls the over
towering ambition for exploration that
beset him until it finally eliminated in
his effort to reach the Pole. DR.. Cook
declares that at the time he convinced
himself he had discovered the Pole he
was half mad. He spent two years in
his quest, and during that time endur-
ed hunger and privation that, he says,
would unbalance any mind. The eX-
plorer states that it would be impos-
sible for any man to demonstrate be-
yond question that he had been to the
North Pole. He characterizes the re-
gion as a region of insanity, where one
cannot believe the evidences gathered
by ones own eyes.
BewiIdered BY His Sensation.
He said he had always looked on the
discovery of the Pole as an achieve
ment for his own personal satisfaction
for the satisfaction of a craving and
desire that was greater than any other
factor in his life. When he found how
tremendous a sensation his statement
that he had attained the Pole created
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1910-12-14

he was overcome with bewilderment
DR.. Cook then tells the story of the
days in Copenhagen and later in New
York, and of the crisis in his life that
caused his flight from New York and
his voluntary exile from the United
States. The explorer says that not.
withstanding the fact that he was fol-
lowed by the shrewdest newspapermen
in the world, day after day, and that
sums ranging upward of several thou
sand dollars were offered for clew
as to his whereabouts, he has never
worn a disguise and has never taken
any unusual precautions to conceal his
identity. Part of the time, he says, his
wife has been with him and part of
the time his children. DR.. Cook and
his wife are now in Europe and the
children are in a convent in France.
Spent His Time in London.
Most of the time during his exile
DR.. Cook has been in London. He SOS
he has gone about among Americans
there with the utmost freedom and at
times has registered under his own
name, and that only a few have
guessed his identity. Those who did
guess it, DR.. Cook says, were turned
away with ease by the remark. why,
yes l have been told that before"
DR.. Cook say he never even had
time to sleep more than three or four
hours between his arrival at Copen-
hagen and his disappearance in New
York. When he had time for thought,
he found growing stronger and strong
er the desire to return to his own
country, to be understood by his own
people. He realizes better than any
one else the esteem in which he was
held
81 have been called the greatest liar
in the world; the most monumental
imposter in history" says DR.. Cook.
81 believe that in every undesirable
way stand unique, the object of such
suspicion and vltuperat1on as nave as
sailed few men,"
Wants Worlds Good Opinion.
With this realization, Dr. Cook wrote
his story and says that to him the
honor of discovering the North Pole
no longer means anything. The ex.
plorer has been working on his story
since last August, and says, accord
ing to the editor of Hampton's Maya.
CINE, that "his sole desire is to make
the people of the United States rea'
lie just what he went through during
his two and half years in the Arctic
fastness and to make them see what
processes of thinking, or lack of think
ing, it was that led him to do the thing
which confirmed to the average mind
the worst suspicious against him.

SAN FRANCISCO, December e.
Fifteen Chinese, seven of them wo-
men, were captured by four inspectors
just before midnight on Sunday as
they were attempting to land at China
basin.
The capture was attended by battle
with two white men in skiffs, who had
brought the Chinese from the Pacific
Mail steamer Manchuria at pier A..
The white men succeeded in making
their escape after nine shots had been
fired but one of the boats was after
ward discovered after it had been
abandoned near the Arctic Oil wharf.
That the attempt to get these Chi
nese into the country was carefully
planned in a plot that must have in
volved both men in the employ of the
Pacific Mail Company and in the gov
eminent service is the theory of the
immigration officials at Angel island,
who are conducting a thorough inves-
tigatiOn.
Held For Deportation.
The fifteen Chinese are being held
at Angel island for deportation. One
of the women is suspected of being a
resident of the local Chinatown, whose
duty to the plot was to act as guide
to the newcomers and get them from
the water front to Chinatown.
Suspensions from the service are al
most sure to follow, and if the evil
dence can be secured the matter viii
be brought to the attention of the Fed
eral Grand Jury.
Inspectors Freund, Kilemade, Glib
bons and Rohrbacker were on duty on
the Manchuria last night, They will
be called upon to explain how it was
that fifteen Chinese left the steamer
without their having seen their de-
parmre,
The Pacific Mail Company also has
watchmen and quartermasters, who
were supposed 10 have been on duty az
the time They win also be called mp.

H1n1Es-REPUBI1CAN, IOWA. MAY ~,

We have tried to fix this so YOU can
investigate rapidly and know In q brief
+time-a day, whether our claims are
true.
we hope you will proceed at once TO
do 30.
We are making this letter public to
you by sending q copy thereof to the
Times-Republican and the Herald, be-
cause you have been quoted in inter-
views with the papers as to what you
proposed to do, and IL you do anything
without investigation and without sees
ing whether or not our statements are
true, the people will know it.
There are three matters that we did
not call your attention to which also
will prevent the petition being good
and haveSnot called your attention to
in this letter, and they are, First:
Sixty names withdrawn from the petit
ton. Second: There are about fifty
names on the petition that are not wit
ressed by any one. Third: There are
about twenty five names that are sign
ed by mark and the mark has MOI
been witnessed.
Finally, we can convince you in two
days time by going with you to the
court house and taking the papers and
lIlSill LIldL Tie pcIAlIoA lawns
500 names in the various ways we have
indicated above of being enough.
Kindly inform us of your intentions
in the matter, If you feel SO disposed
and do not be misled and make the tax
payers an expense at the request of
outsiders or overzealous persons at
home or because you think 1t Is your
duty to do something because petition
has been filed revoking the right that is
not sufficient If you investigate it.
Yours truly,
BRADFORD & JOHNSON.
p. S. We desire to say the petition,
we believe, is short two names in the
claimed count, and then H. c. Hanson,
whose page number in petition is 247,
and whose street and number is COS
Woodbury. street, and who works at
Wilhau & Halverson's, says the sigma
ture is not his, and he never signed or
authorized anyone to sign it, and he
lives at that number and voted. We
have other cases like this.
