Newport in Quarantine.
The Pacific Mail Company's steamship New
port arrived late yesterday , afternoon from
Panama and way portF. The quarantine oi
ficials found on board a case of sickness the
nature of which they consider suspicious and
the liner was ordered into quarantine. The
suspicious case, a member of the crewj will
be examined by daylight and upon the result
of this investigation will depend th« . release
or further detention of the Newport. She
brought seven cabin and twenty-six steerage
;>ass. ngers. Among the former was Arthur
H. IMitton. who left here as executive officer
of the Colombian gunboat Bogota. Oliicr
members of the little war vessel's crew are
also on board the Newport. The Newport
was boarded at San Jose de Guatemala by
officers of the British cruiser Grafton, who
went to Captain Saunders for .information re
garding conditions along the '.coast. If re
leased from quarantine the Newport will land
her passengers early this morning at the Pa
ciflc Mail dock
Giving Sailors Away.
The men that . deal in sailors are sighing
for a return of the old days of blood mon?y
and would even be satisfied if time would
roll back to the day of moderately profitable
commissions and there ' stop. The talk of
huge, profits in this traffic in "mariners has
attracted an unusual number of operators and
th<> competition Jias crown keener from day
to day. There are many pallors now in port,
quite a number of ships going elsewhere to
seek charter? and n fairly brisk .Ionium! for
<-rew«. The men that supply these crews have
divided into hostile camps and a cut-rate
war is now l*ing waged to the almost- total
wiping oat of profits. In former days, not
counting the palmy periods of generous blool
money, the boarding master received ?M) for
raeh man supplied and out of tills he paid
a commission of $20 to the runner who found
the man. The boarding master under con
ditions as they prevail to-day receives only
$17 50 per man. Tliat- is gross: and out ot
it comes Jaik'g board and the runner's com
mlKFlon. *- • .

army transport Logan arrived j
" yesterday from Manila. She j
! brought 115 cabin passengers and
•¦*¦ "lCt! soldiers, discharged men of
very much the same character as
tiiv.se that made the last voyage of the j
Thomas such a strenuous struggle. But ,
ihcie was no strenuous struggle on the t
I,opan.
When the Logan left Manila the form j
of paying off the discharged men was j
fzono through. It was only a form, how
ever. The money vient from the paymas
ter into 1647 envelopes. Each envelope was
marked with the name of the soldier own
i*i und deposited in the Logan's strong

rare of for the men until last Monday,
wl < :i the envelopes were distributed to
Lfaeir owners.

al<d. as a consequence, peace from Manila
lo'San Francisco.
Not only was the money withheld. An
rial -rate array of gambling tools, the re
word of a- systematic search of the troop
uaaiters. was confiscated and thrown
overboard. The men growled, and some
of them offered to pay the custodian of
jlT-ir money Zi per cent bonus for the use
<>i :-jme of it. The attractive rate proved
no inducement, however, and more than
on? soldier yesterday thar.kod the officers
rr-Fponsible for holding on to the men's
funds for enabling them to land in San
L'lancisco with money in their pockets.
- Fonr sure-thing gamblers boarded the
l»p;!n at Manila with the evident pur-
Imsr of plying their trade when the men
liad been paid off and going .ashore at
Nagasaki with most of the money earned j
by Uw discharged men. Withholding the
pay rnvelores s-poile<i thr crop, however,
and even if their presence had not been
discovered by the officers the four crooks
woul/1 have reaped a poor harvest.

The annual reports showed the home to
be In a prosperous condition. During the
last year 103 boys and girls were taken
care of. During the coming year those
interested in the welfare of the home will
make efforts to raise a building fund to
eiect a comfortable nursery In the Rich
mond district, where the home owns a
large lot. The property is situated on
Lake street, between Fourteenth and Fif
teenth avenues, and by the end of this
year the management hopes to have a fine
new building erected, as the one they
now occupy must be vacated during this
year. II. E. Law has already donated
$3000 to the building fund, and Henry
Cowell has also given a donation of $1000
toward the fund. It was decided at yes
terday's meeting to make an earnest ap
peal to the public to subscribe toward the
building fund! The San Francisco Nur
sery for Homeless Children is one of tho
most worthy charities in the city, and the
appeal will no doubt result In the raising
of a big building fund.

Six more counties are affiliated with
the board than there were ocs year
ogo. All counties now co-operating wtth
the board are showing greater Interest
than heretofore. Following the recent cit
rus fair, and within two weeks of its close,
the Incentive being the showing made of
citrus fruits at the fair, a corporation was
formed In Kern County to engage on a
large scale in raising oranges and lemons.
Ground has been selected and the devel
opment of water for the tract has begun.
The delegates appointed to go to Sac
ramento next Monday are- B. N. Rowley,
T. C. Frledlander. J. A. Filcher. Craisle
Sharp and Rufus P. Jennings.
Manager Filcher submitted a report of
the doings of the board. During the year
1902 the board sent out 3745 letter* in re
sponse to inquiries, 200.000 copies of liter
ature by mall and about 200,000 copies to
attendants at conventions and persons
who visited the free exhibit of the board
in the Ferry building. The persons visit
ing the board rooms In the year 1302 num
bered 120.000.
The State Board of Trade roted yester
day to Instruct the secretary to request
the California delegation In Congress to
work against any reciprocity measure
tending to Injure any of the industries of
California.
Delegates were elected to represent the
board at the meeting of the Sacramento
Valley Developmnt Association, the San
Jcaquin Valley Commercial Association
and the coast counties to be held at Sac
ramento next Monday, for the purpose of
dJscusslnff the subject of protection to the
forests of California and other measures
of general Interest to the State. A vote
was adopted to publish the pamphlet
written by Professor Wlckson of the Uni
versity . of California concerning the
adaptability of Northern and Central Cal
ifornia for the growing of citrus fruits.
The original steps were taken by the
State Board of Trade some- years ago to
have the Calimyrna fig produced In this
State by the importation of the blastopha
ga, or flg wasp. Since then, with the co-op-'
eratlon of the Department of Agriculture,
the Calimyrna fig has been firmly estab
lished as an article of commerce. Yes
terday the board appointed K, W. Masltn.
J. A. Filcher and B. N. Rowley a commit
tee to prepare an authenticated report of
the agency of fhe board in this matter.
These are the members of the committee
that originally exploited the Idea, of the
blastophaga In a communication address
ed to Secretary Wilson of the Department
of Agriculture.
Business Men of Coast
Have New Problems
to Consider.
In this wide range of possibilities there
Is seen 'to be ample ground for discus
sion. The men who will be at the con
ference will be among the keenest In tho
matter of freight tariffs in the United.
States. On one side Is the Middlo West
desirous of getting the Jobbing trade of
the Pacific Coast. On the other side ars
the business houses of the Pacific Coast.
Much has been settled In favor of this
coast by the decision of the Interstate
Commerce Commission. The remaining
questions have yet to be determined. If
there is no agreement at Chicago tho
Interstate Commerce Commiss»«on will sit
at St. Louis next>«cnth to coifclder what
Is then undetermined. •
"While the Interstate Commerce Commis
sion established certain principles, much
was left in question. Here it is that di
plomacy and expert knowledge will come
into play on both sides to the controversy.
The commission set forth that while the
tariff that fixes the differentials between
carloads and less thanVarlomla from th*»
Middle West to the Pacific Coast cannot
be condemned as a whole, many of the
details arc in violation of law. The com
modity- tariff was censured by the com
mission because, so tHe commission found,
it unlawfully specifies a number of va
ried commodity rates, especially for th«
hardware schedule. In the adjustment of
carload and less than carload rates, so
found the commission, while the differ
ential is not. prlma facie, excessive. It
does not follow that every differential un
der- the tariff may equal those now ex
isting. The differentials between the car
load and the- less than carload rates w*«r»»
found by the commission to bf? too great
in many instances, and it was also found
that the varied commodity rates in the
hardware schedule, and perhaps in some
others, should be readjusted and perhaps
greater latitude should be given In the
shipment of practically the same articles
shipped in mixed carloads, while the pres
ent record before Ihe commission fur
nished no facts from which the commis
sion could Intelligently determine what
ought to be done In specific instances.
Representatives from the commercial
community of San Francisco to tho con
fere'neo to take place at Chicago relative
to the preparation of a new freight tariff
for the transcontinental railways will
leave this city for the East to-morrow
night. They are W. R. Wheeler. Harry
D. Loveland. Wakefield Baker. A. C. Ru
lofson and E. S. PHlsbury. the last named
being attorney for the commercial Inter
ests Involved. This conference is certain
to be attended with important results.
The Interstate Commerce Commission
having intimated that an agreement be
tween the parties in interest would ob
viate the necessity of additional hearing
of the controversy, an effort will be mada
to reach an understanding, and represen
tatives will be present from all the trans
continental lines, and also from the, Busi.
ness Men's league of St. Louis, the last
named organization being the one that
instituted the proceedings that led to zfim
long hearing before the Interstate Com
merce Commission, involving great com
mercial and transportation issues.

Many discouraged Asthmatics
Trho long for a cure or even relief
lack faith to try, believing a cure
impossible. HIMROD'S ASTHMA
CURE ia truly a grand remedy and
possesses a virtus unknown to other
remedies that not only instantly re^

The late Sir Dr. Morrell McKen-

I used HIMROD'S ASTHMA CURE
constantly in his private practice.
If you are discouraged send for a
generous free sample. It will not

HIMROD'S ASTHMA CURE ia
a standard remedy prescribed by
many eminent physicians and sold
throughout the world for over a
