Special Dispatch to Tiik Call
SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 12.— Charles E.
Lewis, speciai employe of the United
States Treasury Department, and Df. J.
E. Gardner of San Francisco, Chinese in
terpreter for the United States Govern
ment, were arrested in thin city to-night
on a warrant sworn out by Yee Gee, who
was official Chinese interpreter for ,1. C.
Saunders while he was Collector of Cus
oms. 'ihe warrant charees them with
robbery. They will go to Port Townsend
lu-morrow to answer to the accusation.
Wartants are out for the arrest of Spe
cial Treasury Agent George W. Whitehead
and Sjecial Treasury Agent Leslie Cul
lom. Whitehead is now en route to the
E ist, having left this city last Saturday
night ior Washington City. Cullorn is in
Chicago. He will return, but It is not
known for a certainty whether or not
Whitehead will come back. His mission
to Washington is to place before the
Treasury Department ceriain matters
which have come to his attention. It is
said they relate 1 to the case on which he
has been working since became West, bui
their nature has not been made public.
The arrest ot Lswis and Gardner was
kept very q.iiet, and there were not hal:
a dozen people in the city who knew any
thing about it. Thcne who know Yee Gee
and who claim to t>e acquainted wnh the
details of tne case say the Government
oflicers find themselves in a serious pre
dicament, out of which it will be hard for
them to extricate themselves. Yee Gee
charges them with having robbed ins
house at Port Townsjnd oi several pri
vate letters and book-. It has been
rumored for some time that the arrest of
the Government oiKcers was contem
plated, but no one believed that Yee Gee
would be so bold as to make a move
Hgainst the Government officials. Who are
backed by ail the powers of the United
fciiates Treasury Department.
Tnere were not. many details known in
this city to-nipiu in connection with the
issuing of the warrants. It w:is staled
that Yee Gee had gone to Port Townscnd
and placed his signature i-> the ir.iorrna
tion tiiea before Justice of the Peace Euos
Snyder. The warrants were brought to
this city, and Constable Pike was instruct
ed to serve them. He found Gardner and
Lewis in this city, and told them they
were wanted at Port Townsend for rob
bery.
Good lawyers who are acquainted with
the present ca^e say that tuts Government
officers under arrest are undoubtedly
euiltv of a technical robbery. When
Wmtehead arrived in this cuy from New
York with Lewi-« to investigate the ucts of
the aliened smuggling rintr, they very
quickly came in the cor:c usion liint it
wouid be a good idea to seaicn Yee Gee's
place of business at Port Town -tend. They
went before United States Commissioner
Keifer, and Whiteliead swore out a
sea-ch warrant for Y'ee Shine's grocery
store on Washington stree:, Port Town
send. Instead of entering Y'ee Shine's
piac, it is alleged, they went into Yee
Gee's store, which is next door, anJ ihere
proceeded to help themselves to every
thing they thought would aid them in
showing Y'ee Gee's connection wan the
ring. They look a quantity of hi' private
letters, which iold, as it is claimed by ihe
Government officers, rnanv details of the
alleged ring. A book containing writing
supposed to be that of Yee Gee was
seized.
Yee Gee's claim is that tha officers en
te:eci his place without authority, if the
search warruntbad called lor a search of
his place ue would not h ..ve thought so
mucli about it. The Government officers
say, that as a matter of tact, Yee Gee had
been interested in Yee Shine's place, and
that be had sold out a few days beiore
without letting any on? know it.
FLAGSHIP
BALTIMORE
IK SERVICE
Continued from First Page.
hundred workmen, but the admiral was
safe in matin,' his report, for at the time
there was not an officer or man at the
navy yard lo turn the ship over to.
Since ti e i the repairs to the flagship
have been completed, most of htr stores
shipped and all that has been lacking has
been the necessary complement of men to
man her.
Last Friday night Lieutenant Stoney
ana a deiachment of 101 men from the
Brooklyn Navy-yard arrived at Mare
Island, and it was expected that this
inadequate force would be utilized to place
her in commission, but as the necessary
orders from Washington were not forth
coming it was supposed the department
had decided to adhere to its original plan,
to await the arrival- of the Philadelphia
from Honolulu and transfer the latter's
officers aud crew in a body to tiie new
flagship.
To-day's orders, therefore, were a com
plete surprise, and while nobody can an
ticijme the next move of the department,
It is the general expectation that the Bal
timore will continue to occupy her present
berth at the quay until the Philadelphia
reaches here, when the transfer of men
fcjil be made with appropriate ceremonies.
By that time she will have received the
last of her stores ana will be ready to pro
ceed to sea if it is deemed necessary to
order her to Honolulu.
The Philadelphia wiil undoubtedly ar
rive before the close of the ■week.

NEW YOIIK. N. V., Oct. 12.— 1t was
detinitrly announced at the Navy Depart
ment this afternoon, according to a liorald
Washington dispatch, that when ihe
cruiser Baltimore leaves for Hawaii, prob
ably next week, she will carry with her
orders to the Yorktown and Wheel. to
go to Mare Island.
The withdrawal of these two gunboats
means that tlie administration is satisfied
that the Baltimore and the gunboat Ben
nington will be sufficient to protect
American interests at the islands in the
luture. It indicates that the temporary
need which called the two gunboat? to
Honolulu has exoired and the President
feels safe in directing their return.
It was frankly admitted to-day, con
tinues the dispatch, ttiat the only reason
ihe authorities had for sending the gun
boats to Hawaii was hecause of a fear that
the Japanese residents of the islands, in-
eated by their Government, misht pre
cipitate a riot which would wreck the
Dole administration and placa them in
power unless checked by United Slates
forces.
The authorities believe the presence of
sucli n large .'orce of American vessels in
Honolulu harbor had much to do with
the peaceful conditions nuw obtaining.

PLENTY OF TALENT HERE.
So Charles Frohman Hesitates About
Sending Cut the Empire ttock
Company.
NEW YORK. N\ V., Oct. tt— Charles
Fr.iliman announces that lie is froine to
send his Empire Tneater stock company
to> London during the summer to play in
his new DuKe of York Theater, instead of
sending his company to the Pacific Coast.
Frohman has been quoted as saying he
could get a run of three months in the
British capital, while he would only have
three weeks in ban Francisco; also that
San Francisco could not give returns as
big hs the New York company was en
titled to. It was added that tbe Aicazar,
Morocco's and Columbia were presen ing
excellent plays at pritfea too cheap ;o jus
tify his company going we?t.
Al Hay man in discussing th« subject to
day was inclined not to draw the situation
bo strong hs Frohman. -'Of course Mr.
Frohman lias made ih:s decision, and 1
presume he knew what he was talking
about." began Mr. Hayman, "but the pro
gramme as arranged lor ihis -easou will
be carried out, nevertheless, as at first in
tended. As to the ensuing season I pie
suine ihrre is some doubt. It is true that
ihere are several theaters in San Francisco
wliich have made prices «o low ■■ lo affect
btgcompaaiei and keep them in the East.
However, the Empire plays billed for San
Francisco will be rendered there according
to the programme. One of these is 'Un
der thi? Kei Robe,' and there will be at
least one other play which is fully as pop
ular."
Albert Bonner hns been here for several
days. He io'd The Call correspondent
tonight at the Holland House that he was
consulting With Mr. Hay man in regard to
the Looking and assisting to arrange other
matters relative to different companies.
He Will probably leave foi home Sunday
evening.
POLITICAL CLANS GATHERING.
Delegation of Prominent Fepub /cans
Leave San Francisco for Los
tngeles-
LOS ANGELES, Cat-., Oct. 12.— What
does their coming portend? Tnis is the
question that is to-nisrht agitating the
local politicians with reference to the an
nouncement that a delegation of promi
nent Republicans left San Francisco to
day lor this city.
fa the party rre said to be John C.
Lynch, Internal Revenue Collector; D. M.
Burns, Judge Brooks, Assemblyman
Bettman an 1 otfiers Influential in the
councils of the party.
Among those who are in touch with the
situation both north and south of the
Tehachapi it is surmised that the leader?
from San Francisco are simply cominc
here to ioofc over the ground in relation
to th 9 Governorship, with thf» purpose, if
matters can bo arranged, of eff-ctini; a
combination; on what lines no one pre
sumes to say.
There are no Ipss than eight well dc
lined candidates already in the field for
the nominntion of the Republican con
vention. T.iis plethoia of timber — and all
of it is admitted to be good — is accounted
for by the prevalent opinion that the
nomination will be M good as an eleciion
next year.
A name that has not heretofore been
mentioned in the newspapers in this con
nection is that of Joe C.itnnbpll of the old
law linn of Reidv, Carui>t. P !i k Metson.

scene of the hold-up shortly alter Barnett was ki lei. He will bs held to await the
return of Fred Donol.u?. who saw the two s-u-piriou* characters who, it js be

SAUSALITO. Cal., Oct. —Town
Marshal John E. Greed mnde a descent
upon the i»oolmoni run by Harrison &
Co. in th« Euffiio Hotel building on
Water street this morning at 10:30 o'clock
and arrested ten men. The gamblers
were taken before Recorder Pryor, where
they were released upon giving bonds to
appear lor trial nexi Tnursdav.
The players arrcst?d by the Marshal
pave their names as Wiliiani Barnett,
Benjamin Burr, Williem Dolard, Pater
Ward, John Lihey and James Joaa* Re
corder Pryor held them under $25 cush
bail or $100 bomls. The latter were imme
diately forthcoming, and the men w bt
bnck to the game.
The principals placed under arrest were:
William Harrison, M..x Cohen, Joserh
Belfast and Dick Creighton. The Re
corder fixed their bail at $100 ca*n or $250
bonds. They also pave bond 9 and depart
ed for the poolroom, which began business
again as though nothing had happen^!.
Tne cases of the first six are set for 10:30
o'clock Thursday forenoon, and thoa-j of
the principals for 4 o'clock of the same
day. All tlie rcen pleaded not guilty.
A venire for 150 talesmen was placed in
Marshal Creea's hands to-day, and from
th'.s list; twelve men will be selected to try
the cases of Laliey and Jones.
There was no excitement attending the
arrests of the ganiulcrs. It has been
known for some time that this procedure
was to be taken and consequently when
it came it was expected. Ail the excite
ment that has attended this last move on
the part of the town oftic als to oust the
poolrooms took place ai the meeting of
the Trustees last night. Trustee J. M.
Kilgarif, who has been the leader in the
crusade against the gamblers, seized his
hat and left the meeting, saving as ne
pdsseu out that the whole thing was a
farce and that he was done with it and
intended to wash his hands of Sausalito's
Trustees and the town's affairs.
The various puases of the situation
leading up to Kilgarif s hasty retiring aie
• n themselves interesting. Kilcarif, when
the Trustees came to order, aspect
froaecutinj( Attorney Adolph Sylv.i wtiat
action had been taken 10 arrea; the pool
sellers and player* under the new ordi
nance. Sylva stated that no action had
as yet been taken; tiiat they had delayed
so as to .'ollow the board's instructions.
A discussion then arose as !o how many
arrests should le made, and Kilgarif said
that at least 100 should bo arrested, but
the other members of the board thought
ihat the expense to tho town would be too
preat, as $20 for each case would be about
what the town would be taxed. General
Dickinson opposed wholesale arrests, and
the board, over Kil;arif'a objections, in
structed the officer* to make but ten ar
rests.
Kilgarif then grew indignant end
walkeii out. The board resolved to meet
again next Thursday night, when any ao
tion as to making more arrests will come
Another important subject was the con
sideration as to wh°tiier Westerson's and
Dean's licenses should be revoked because
the poolrooms were conducted :n their re
sorts. It was linully agreed that further
action should be taken next Thursday
nijjht, but if in the meantime the pool
rooms close the licenses will not be inter
fered with.
The poolmen who were arrested to-day
say that the town ordinance is invalid
and that they cannot be punished. The
arrest* did not have the slightest effect on
the playin™ and tiie sport gees on as lively
as ever.

Strange Affliction of the Man Who
Was the First Husband of
Amelie Rives.
bpecial Dispatch to ThbL'ai.l.
NEW YORK. N. V., Oct. 12— John
Armstion;'. Clianler, great-grandson of
John Jacob .\stor, and formerly husband
of Amelie ltives-Unanler, was taken to
Blooimngdale Asylum six montb.i no,
His frienas spread the report that he bad
{:one to Europ" and it was said Bt his law
oilice in the Equitable building to-day
j tli.it he wa' sitili uDroad.
Ameiie Hive?, whose divorce lrom Mr.
Chanler was obtained in a mysterious
manner, as was his commitment to Bioom
in^-dale, and who on February 18, lSVti,
was married to Prince Troubeiskoy, be
came a me ital wrect last June and was
taken la a sanitarium in Philadelphia.
Later it waa announced that she had re
covered her health.
Mr. Chanler married the author soon
after her book, "The Quick and the Dead,"
made a sensation in the literary world.
No two persons in all the couniry were
more talked of wnen they went abroad for
their honeymoon. Now botli are under
treatment lor rnentnl disorder".
Mr. Chandler occupies a suite of rooms
in Macy Villa, aitact.ed to Bloomir.cdnle
Asylum. Wfaea he tirst weni there he wns
iivey at Ume=., liking to Jake long drives.
He commanded the finest hordes in thp
Bioomingi!ale stable, and when the driver
j;ot out of si.-ht of the asylum ordered the
beasti speeded to the utmost. He would
cling to the seat and t'hont wuh gies
when the horses did a ticulariy good
luile.
Of late Mr. Chanler's malady has taken
a aifTerent form. He is quiet and morose
an<i refuses to see visitor-*, turninc away
even his most intimate friends. He will
iu lk to no one but his attendant, and the
attendant is with him contininlly nighi
and day. He reads the newspapers and
j an occasional book and often writes for
hours at a lime.
An extraordinary development is his
desire 10 sleep in the iluyume and trow.
around the asylum grounds at night. All
day long the curtains of his room are
! drawn. When the electric light is turned
on a: night tie ri«e-, takes a bath and then
leads his attendant a merry chase, lasting
sometimes fur hours.
He speans 10 no one he meets on thebe
night runibles and his seems like a hore
less rase of paresis. From property banded
down to him from the A^tor family lv
has an income oi more than $30,000 a year.
TRACY GAINS SUPPORT.
Republicans of Greater Aew York
Find Many Causes of En
couragement.
NEW YORK, N\ V., Oct. 12— Senator
Platt said to-day that ue was more confi
dent than at any time during the cam
paign that General Tracy, Republican can
didate for Mayor, would be elected.
In a few days he will give his reasons in
a statement wnich he is preparing.
Among the many causes for encourage
ment to the Republican leaders is the
growing strength of the Henry Georze
movement. At first it was thought that
Mr. Georce represented and would get the
votes only of those who shared in his
peculiar economic idea*. That was the
Tammany leaders' estimate of his strength
It turns out, however, that Mr. George
is drawing his main snpport from the
Tammany ranks. He will get, it is pre
dicted, thousands of votes from those who
•re disgusted with Tammany and Croker
isni, and if Charles W. Dayton, the former
Postmaster, is nominnted for Controller
on the G«orge ticket the Van Wyck tiofcet
will be cut genera ly and severely. The
Tammany men a>lmit this.
The situation had a very roseate look to
day. General Tracy hxs gained strength
within the last lew days.
