CLERKS,
URGES MACVEAGH
Secretary of the. Treasury
Says These Are Govern

CONTINUED from First Page.)

part Of wisdom for all the friends Of this
movement to concentrate upon this
method. OF course, there must be paid
by the Government the retiring allow
ances until the contributions by the
members of the service have become
sufficient to take care Of the payments;
but these preliminary payments by the
Government need not cost the Govern
ment anything whatever.
"All of the executive departments
which have SO far been consulted stand
ready to carry out such law without
asking any addition whatever to their
ordinary appropriations. The objection,
therefore, that we might be introducing
another pension roll, has no justifica-
ton. 1t had complete justification as
long as the straight pension was in con-
temptation. The contributory allow.
matter and eliminates this objection
altogether.
The Government, therefore, can with
out any expense to itself. and by the
mere passing of a law, set this whole
matter right. 1t is only necessary to
mention two things about the con-
tributory plan, as contrasted with the
pension plan, to make clear its advan-
tages to the people in the service.
1T could never be taken as an answer
to a claim for increased pay. 1t is a
contribution of their own and not a
contribution of the Government, and 1t
Is in no sense an estoppel OF any argu-
ment In favor Of increased pay at any
time during its operation. On the 9th
er hand, a straight pension paid by the
Government would always be taken as
an additional salary and would per-
petually have tendency to estop any
argument for increased compensation
The other consideration is that under
a pension system a man must not only
live beyond the retiring age but he must
continue always in the service until that
period in order to receive any pension
at all; whereas. under the cOntributory
system, under all the accidents of life,
he gets what belongs to him of the saw
ings of the system. 1t is impossible not
to regard a straight pension as part
Of the salary and II man loses 1t al
together, owing to the accidents of life,
he loses a part of his aggregate salary"

SUSPENDS
DISTRICT LICENSES
Aetna Indemnity Company
and United Surety Com
pany Are Sufferers.

Following similar action on the part
of the insurance authorities of Con-
necticut and Maryland, George w. Ing
ham, superintendent of insurance, has
suspended the licenses to transact bust
ness in the District of the Aetna In
demnity Company OF Connecticut. in
which Joseph G. Robin was interested,
and the United Surety Company of Bal
timore.
Mr.. Ingham has received from Theo-
dore Macdonald, commissioner of in
surance of Connecticut, a letter stating
that the Aetna Indemnity Company has
gone into the hands or a receiver and
that Its affairs have been in an un-
settled condition since the disclosures
concerning Joseph G. Robin, who con-
trolled the stock.
Commissioner Macdonald states that
the company was conducting a safe,
conservative, and profitable business.
and had 1t not been for the manipula-
ton of it's funds by Robin, it would un-
doubtedly have rendered a favorable
annual statement.
The United Surety Company OF Balti-
more, according to information received
from Emerson c. Huntington, has gone
into the hands Of a receiver, an exam
ination of it's affairs having shown that
it's capital stock is impaired.

ILLINOIS TO BACK
CARTER HARRISON
Former Mayor of Chicago Is
a Presidential Possibility
In 1912.

A new possibility for the Democratic
nomination for President in 1912 is being
discussed, about the Capitol. Former
Mayor Carter Harrison, of Chicago, is
the man mentioned.
Mr.. Harrison, like his distinguished
father, served in the mayorship of Chi
cago, but his political fortunes went
into eclipse with the control of the city
by the Republicans. Now that the
Democrats have swept Cook county
again, and their prospects for electing a
mayor in Chicago are good, 1t is not un-
likely he will be returned to the mayor
ship.
Mr.. Harrison is a man of ability and
experience and should he be returned to
the mayorship he would once more be a
force in Illinois politics. The Illinois
delegation might be turned to him in
1872
The spectacle may be presented of
two mayors of great cities being in the
Democratic race for the Presidential
nomination. The other, of course,
would be Mayor Gaynor.
Just now, Democrats in Washington
arc keeping a sharp eye on New York
political developments. If Mayor Gay
nor is successful in helping to get Shep-
and elected 10 the Senate instead of
Sheehan, it will be a large political
feather in his cap as viewed by many
Democrats in Congress. Shepard is
more or less conservative, but he Is not
a Tammany machine Democrat as Shee-
han is. The selection of Sheehan would
be viewed by many or the Democrats
here as a hard blow to Democratic as
pirations 10 capture the Presidency in
1872
Governor Harmon's friends are taking
a good deal of quiet satisfaction unto
themselves over the selection of Atlee
Pomerene for Senator to succeed Sena-
tor Dick in Ohio. Pomerene had Har-
mons support. He Is classed as a pro-
gressive Democrat, and this fact has
tended to ward off some of the criticism
of progressive members of the party to
the effect that Harmon is a reaction
airy.

Best Prescription
for Kidney Troubles

The kidneys and bladder require more
attention and care at this time of the
year, especially during extremely cold
spells. Such symptoms as backache,
rheumatic pains, frequent, scanty or
painful urination, highly colored or
scalding urine. pains in the groin. dull
pains in back of head, dizziness, irrita-
bility, all are plain signs OF kidney
trouble. Prompt attention and treat
ment should be given to avoid the worst
forms Of kidney disease, which nearly
always result seriously. The following
prescription comes from high medical
authority and is known to be reliable:
Half ounce Murax compound, half
ounce fluid extract Buchu, six ounces
best GIN Mix thoroughly and take one
or two teaspoonfuls of the mixture
after each meal and at bed time. The
ingredients OF the above prescription
can be had OF any druggist or the gin
can be obtained from any liquor dealer.

CHINESE THREATEN

Wrath of Orientals Caused
BY Publication of
Editorial.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. I6.-Three
thousand infuriated Chinese marched
through the streets Of Chinatown last
night, and halting before the doors of
the Chung Sal Vat, daily newspaper,
clamored for the life of its editor,
Chin Toy, and the destruction of the
plant. But for the intervention of the
police, who battled with the mob, Chin
Toy would have fallen into the hands
Of rioters and paid forfeit for his edi-
torial temerity.
The police welded clubs freely and
subdued the riot after a dozen men
had been clubbed into submission.
Chin Toy brought the wrath of the
people down .on him because of an

her sweetheart, All Lee, in this coun-
try, that it was going to be the means
of saving two men from going to Jail.
In the letter she calls him the pride
of her heart" and the hero of her
thoughts as near as may be inter
preted; but these phrases had nothing
whatever to do with the case. And
after you have learned all about it
there is to learn, you will wonder how
matters shaped themselves as they
did.
When the case against An Lee,
charged with having lottery tickets in
his possession, was called yesterday
morning, certain Chinese shuffled up
to the desk in front of Police Judge
Sullivan, who sat on his bench. Po-
liceman Frank Cummings was there to
prosecute him. A scroll was offered in
evidence, also a love letter. Sullivan
had the interpreter read the Letter
All of this seemed to amuse All Lee
immensely. He chuckled in his sleeve
and he chuclIled out of it. He chuckled
so much that the court caught the
habit, as did the spectators. The evil
dence in the case was not very strong,
so the court dismissed the case. All
Lee went about his own affairs. a free
man.
An hour later Judge Sullivan was
rather surprised when he once more
came upon the name All Lee on the
calendar He was chargd with ihs
same offense. The evidence here wos
conclusive. Policeman Mum had it all
there in a way that was unavoidable.

COURT ITEMS

The Kahuku murder trial, in which
a Korean is charged with taking the
life of a fellow countryman with
malice aforethought, was resumed be-
fore Judge Cooper this morning.
In the case of Won Hamm-Young Co.,
Ltd, against Mrs. VIM. Welsh the
Supreme Court reversed the judgment
of District, Magistrate Monsarrat for
defendant. 1t is held in the opinion
that the law comforting the right of
making contracts on married women
involves their liability under contracts
they may make even for necessaries.
A decree of divorce was granted to
Yaga Araki Ueno against Menoji on
the ground of non-support, also one to
Nobu Matsuura against Yaichi Matsu-
ura for the same cause.
Judge Robinson made an order Of
personal service on James Archibald
Reid of notice of tendency of the
divorce suit brought against him here

made by the sheriff of San Francisco
or one of his deputies. Libellee has
