CHINESE FISHERMEN LAND
TWO Monster SHARKS
Huge Ocean Coyotes" Towed
From Sea and Killed In
Sight Of Hundreds.

Two large sharks, one measuring If
teen feet and three inches and the 9th
er twelve feet and FIVE inches in length
were caught and towed into the harbor
yesterday and killed by n number of
Chinese fishermen who had them hang
ed to the big floating crane at the foot
of Richard street. The killing, witness
ed by large crowd was done with the
aid of harpoons.
Large crowds congregated on the sur
rounding -wharves and watched the Chi.
nese dispatch the big tderiihens+ of thef
deep. Deeapitation followed the har-
po6ning of the ''mano nui'' and the
big ones were cut into long strips for
sale as bait and for medicinal pur-
poses.
Opinions-xaried among the crowd as
just to what family the two captured
sharks belonged, some being of the opin-
ion they were maneaters while others
felt as sure they were overgrown ham
merheads.
"We vely lucky Chinese" said one
of the harpoon men, "cause we kill 'em
shark. In China, suppose we kill 'em
dead we be lucky for one year. This
true, no foolee.n
One old waterfront salt tried to ex-
plain the reason why the sharks ven,
tured so near the shore. This man had
been a determined and loud-spoken
Democrat before the last election and
had voted the ticket straight, scratch
ing only when he came to the candi-
dates for city clerk and auditor. After
the victory Of the Bourbons at the polls
he had expected to land a soft snap,
but didn't. However, he explained the
sharks had made up their fish heads
they would come ashore, having heard
only lately the Bourbons were at last
in power and there might be some han
dy pickings along the waterfront. That
they were disappointed and came to
grief gave the old salt considerable
satisfaction. In disappointment and
sorrow, he felt, he and the sharks were
on the same 9evel, with the lone ex-
ception that he was still alive.
After the autopsy, which was per-
formed ON the sharks, an examination
of the contents of their stomachs
brought to light many curious things.
A crampled piece of brown wrapping
paper had the Following list, without,
however, anything else to explain what
it was meant for: Link McCandless,
Gabriel Keawehalsu, Glen Quinn, Rob
ert w. Cathcart, Charles Barron, JOS
eph j. Fern, Jack s. Kalakiela and
Stephen Gumpfer.
There was also a bundle of what APP
pearcd to have been banana claims, pre-
pared in the Kalakiela style, and along
side was a copy of the Sheldon report
which censured the father of the banana
claims.

POSSIBILITIES OF FRICTION.

There is one other possibility Of disturbance
IN the stock market and that is the friction with
Japan In the present dispute there is absolutely b
nothing that warrants Japan could not
i.pa finance war with the United States, which
would end in only result-that of disastrous
defeat to Japan. But Japan is proud nation,
and may easily feel offended at our treatment
which has been unnecessarily brusque and incon-
siderate. 1t would be far better for the United
States and especially the Pacific Coast to cult
yate friendly relations with the Asiatic people
especially if we desire to secure our share of
rapidly growing commerce with that portion of
the world AT present driving commerce
that should go through Pacific ports to our for
eign rivals; simply because of prejudice
and short-sghted legislation. The situation con-
tains possibilities of friction that might easily

HAS DR.. FRIEDMAN
SOLVED TUBERCULOSIS

To-day tuberculosis still clings t 1.-THE mercifully small group
of diseases that have baf1ed science. Tomorrow or the next day
may find it listed with the diseases science has conquered. 1t can
now be only a matter of days until DR.. Friedmanns serum has been
proved a failure or a success.
These are long, aching days for the afflicted. To thousands of
stricken men, women and children every tick of the clock is mo-
mentous Their plight has a pathos no man can gauge. They are
beleaguered by a disease that is fatal now, but may not be fatal to-
morrow. They face death with the knowledge that succor, so long
awaited, is at hand. 1t seems inevitable that the research which
has gone on for SO long must now be on the eve of discovering a
cure. Every victim of the disease realizes that relief is swiftly on
the way. And every one wonders will he live to be succored.
The cruellest of kindness is to give false hope. That this has
been done 20 often only makes more terrible the situation in which
the victims of tuberculosis now find themselves. Other investiga-
tors in their day seemed to have solved the dread problem. And
every announcement, however conservative, of a possible cure has
precipitated a rush from all over the country of unfortunates clam
oring for relief
Never has the hope of the consumptive been so high as now.
Never have they stormed the doors of a possible savior so eagerly.
The wide publicity given to Dr. Friedman and his serum before
he came to this country raised anticipation to the highest pitch.
Every clinic he held in New York was beseged by a multitude OF
sufferers. Even before his theory had been accepted and while
some of the most famous of our medical men we're skeptical, the
hope he had raised urged thousands to beg for his serum.
Each day of Dr. Fredmanns stay has intensified hope. OBJ
servation of those first treated has impressed favorably even the
.skeptics. A sufficient time has now almost elapsed to form a definite
opinion on the efficacy of his serum. A report from the Govern
ment health officers assigned to put his test to rigorous trial may be
expected any day.
What is transporting in New York means hope or despair, life
or death, to many thousands, It is most devoutly to be prayed
that the hope which has been accumulatng in their hearts from day
to day will not once more be dashed.
If this oft revived hope is crushed again, should it not be a
public such discoveries as DR.. Friedmanns until their efficacy is un-
questionably demonstrated. Humanity owes to the victims of this,
its dreadest scourge. protection from the cruel punishment of this
alternating high hope and grim despair-S. F. Examiner.
