TOURIST THREATENS To

Ocean Arrivals at San Pedro
Angered at Delay Of Gus
toms Man

SAN PEDRO, April 19.-The impa-
tience of fifty irate passengers detained
on the German steamer Ella Of the
Jebsen line from Corinto reached a
climax at noon today, when Charles
Cowan, a prominent Seattle capital
list, threatened to strike George Engle-
hart, a customs inspector, with a cane.
The passengers had been detained
since daylight by the delayed arrival
of the immigration officer from Los
Angeles and all were anxious to go
ashore.
The inspector declined to examine
Cowan's baggage after the noon hour.
The two became involved in a wordy
war and their angry remarks were
punctuated with threatening gestures,
in which the cane figured conspicuous
ly as the ruffled inspector strobe down
the gang plank to his lunch.
Steamship officials have long COM
planned over the treatment vessels re-
ceive at the hands of the immigration
officials at this port. The immigra-
tion officer lives at Los Angeles and
comes down to make his inspection at
his leisure. In the meantime passen-
gers are left to pace the deck in i'm
patience.
The annoyance is particularly great
to the Jebsen steamers. On every trip
there are many through passengers
who desire to spend the short time
the vessels are in port in Los Angeles.
The list this morning included all
classes, globe trotters, Mexican Off
cials, diplomats, and journalists, who
were anxious to get to the city. Sew
eral Of them had official business to
transact.

Very drastic charges have been filed
with Governor Vessey by citizens of
Hot Springs against the management
of the Soldiers home. The charges
recite great cruelty on the part of the
management against some of the in
mates. The board of control, however,
Enormously supports the commandant
in the course he pursues, and most of
the former commandments give him
moral support. Never before have the
charges been SO seriously pressed. but
no former commandant has escaped the
same criticism. The use of liquor is
tabooed 1T the home, and if an in
mate returns to the place in a drunken
condition he Is excluded until sober,
and if he persists he is discharged.
The citizens of Hot Springs declare
that this policy exercised indiscrimi-
nately works great hardship and en-
tails suffering and real cruelty. An
investigation, to be made by others
than the board. is demanded. Govern
or Wesley has not yet his
purpose in the matter.

Against Reduced Tariffs.

Rapid City. S. u, Dec. 26. George,
Rice and f. C. Robinson, of the South
Dakota railroad commission, in a hear

on record in favor of a reduction of
west of the Missouri rates in this state

effective east of the river. Their pol

member residing west Of the river,
who contends for a higher basis spe-
officially for the lines in the Black Hills.
Specific complaint was made to the
commission by the lumber and coal
dealers, headed by Chairman Tomp-
kins, of the Rapid City Business Mems
club, who presented the argument
showing that present rates west of the
river are exorbitant in comparison
with eastern South Dakota, Iowa and
Minnesota rates, according to cost Of
operation and revenue per ton per mile.
Plaster and stone men reported that
