8 HELD IN BONDAGE. Sacramento Highbinders Entrap a Yonng Girl. Rescued From a Brothel by the Directress ol a Mission. Two Policemen and a Hack-Driver Successfully Resist 111 Attempts to Recapture tbe Woman. Special Dispatches to Tits Morning Call.

BACEAMEXTO, July There was a very lively sensation In Chinatown about 2:30 o'clock this afternoon, the principal actors being a Mrs. Brown, representing one of ibe Chinese nilsilons In San Fiancisco, an Intelligent young Chinese woman who accompanied her, James Cousins, a back-driver, and Officers Lowell and Frszer. Miss Yet Wall, a young and pretty Chinese girl, was the cause of the commotion, and, together with a bowling mob of Celestials, the majority of whom were, doubtless, highbinders. Mrs. Brown came here to rescue Yet Wall, who was held In slavery ln a disreputable house on Third stieet, between I and J.

The young Chinese woman who assisted her came herein advance to arrange the preliminary details. The prisoner was Induced to come here a few weeks ago under the belief that she was to become the wile cf one ot the prominent and wealthy Chinese merchants. As soou as she set her fool In the bouse In Chinatown, however, she found to tier consternation that she was the victim of a deep-laid conspiracy. After a while she found means of communicating with her san Francisco friends and the work of effecting her rescue was Immediately begun. According lo arrangements.

Mrs. Brown drove up to the bou-e about half-past 2 o'clock In Cousins' carriage. Officers Lowell and Frazer appeared upon the scene at the proper moment, and tbe carriage bad uo sooner stopped than the trusty young Chinese woman came out of tbe building, accompanied by lhe slave. They had scaiccly made their appearance on tbe sldewalK, however, before her keepers and lhe ever-ieady highbinders dlscoveied the plot, and at once an attempt was made to frustrate it. They made a lush tor the women, but Officer Lowell was by litis time bustling litem into the carriage, while Frazer, tbe oilier big policeman, was letting out In Sullivan-ilke style with bis list-, and laying out lhe furious Meirj.

Ye: Wan was found lo be ln such a nervous state that she bail almost to be carried Into the car. As soon as she gut into the car she crouched down under a seat aud Mis. flrown stood up in the aisle to piotect her from lhe gaze of the curious.

By this time no less than twenty Chinamen had reached the depot, doubtless hern on amission of rescue. The policemen remained near at band, however, until lhe train pulled out, and prevented auy outbreak. Kailroad Detective Burke, who was a passenger for San Francisco, promised to aid Mrs. ln safety lauding her cbaige in Sau Francisco. SONOMA FOLiITICS.

Indications of a Live'; Candidates in ths El July The political contest In Sonoma County next fall promises to be hot and Interesting. The political forces aie about evenly balanced In point of strength, and, as both parties are eager for victory, no stone will be left unturned to bring to the ballot-box every available voter In Hie county. It Is uot unlikely thai one of the warmest phases ol the fight will be the scramble for nomination in the county conventions. Candidates for political honors are bobbing up serenely on every band, and so determined are the majority of these office-seekers to succeed there Is great danger that lv both the Republican and Democratic ranks brother will turn the kuife against brother aud that father will antagonize son. In which case the "wool" Is sure to fly.

The contest lor the nomination forjudges of the superior Court in the Republican convention will uot be at all Interesting, lor It is generally understood that Hon. E. K. Dougherty, the incnnibem, will succeed himself. For lhe Assembly dam tins (the Twenty-fourth) district there are several Republican candidates.

O. A. Tupper, a hotel-keeper of Santa Kosa. and E. A.

Rogers, a horticulturist, are the people's candidates, while the still backed Republicans rather extend their ar.ni to W. F. Russell, a young attorney of Santa Rosa. Fur the Senate from this district but one Republican has as yet come to the surface with a id for the nomination. J.

A. Lovdal were unanimously adopted: We. the bop-growers of California, In body assembled, do hereby condemn the universal practice or consigning bops to be sold on commission as detrimental to the best Interests of tbe hop-growers as lt brings Into competition a dealer with a commission man. As tbe latter has nothing to lose but everything to make by the greater sales that be makes, he naturally Infringes on the grounds or tbe dealer by offering to place the same hops or those of equal quality at a lower rate. Thus he paralyses tbe Interests of the dealer and the grower Inasmuch as no one knows to what lengths he may So lv order to sell more hops.

This naturally forces eaters and buyers to handle hops on commission. The present state or the market proves tbe injury to which the growers were subjected la the last year's crop. Owing to the facta set forth above, we, the hopgrowers of California, do firmly resolve anil agree among ourselves not to conslgu. under any consideration, hops to be sold on commission. solved.

That we demand aud will require to be allowed the tare of three and one-half pounds to ths bale, a tare equal to that on -New York hopbales. THE PAINE BREAK.

Uunsaulus arrived It re yesterday. He Is the pastor ot the First Congregational Church ol Chicago, and Is a very popular orator. At Chautauqua Lake the announcement of his lectures crowds the great amphitheater. Ile Is not Imposing in appearance, though good looking, and Is quite a young man. The eloquence of the lecturer was at limes thrilling.

Those In the audience weie charmed nil the manner of bis delivery. Ibis morning J. E. Richards of Sau Jose lectured on "Socialism." De will lecture again to-morrow morning. Dr.

Uunsaulus lectured this afternoon. Ills subject was: "A Chapter From the History of Libeily." WITH TUE POLAR EXPEDITIONS. This evening a very large audience listened to Mr. 1. E.

Bollnii. His topic was "The Lands of the Midnight Suu." lie said the midnight suu was tlie must remarkable pit- iiomeuoii iv uatuie. The Journey began at Christiania aud extended along the marvelous west Coast of Norway to he. ill. Splendid views were given ol cities aud villages, glaciers, snow-clad peaks and characteristic scenes; also portraits of King Oscar aiilst, author and slaiesman; also ol peasants with unique costumes.

Mr. Bolton wove Into bis address curious bits of blsluty, legend and folk-lore. The tout ists saw a midnight sunset and sunrise, aud theu leinriilng to the Arctic Circle recrossed the Atlantic to America iv a Viking snip aud made men way up the west coast of Greenland. The speaker said he wondered thai eulei prising Chicago should celebrate the discovery of America by Columbus when the continent was dlscoveied 500 yr at befoie by the hardy Norseman. Th climax of the evening was the rescue ul the survivors of the Greety expedition, which was most realistic.

The whole was a resume of the 150 I ular expeditious, and revealed what has been dove aud what remains lo be accomplished lv the north polar regions.

It Is absolutely essential that the grand thoroughfare or avenue of the system, the bowels, should he re-opened as speedily as possible when tbey become obstructed. If they are not, tbe bile Is misdirected into the blood: tbe liver becomes torpid; viscid bilious matter gets Into the stomach, and produces indlgest'on: headaches ensue, and other symptoms are produced, prolongation of the exciting cause only tends to aggravate.

SAN FRANCISCO. WEDNESDAY. JULY 16. 1890-EIGIIT PAGES. A KETTLE OF FISH.

The Game Commissioners Have One That Is Not Pretty. A Star-Clumber Heeling at Which Serious Charges Are Briba Cards for Chinese Law-Breakers. The State Board of Fish Commissioners are In trouble. They prefer, however, to nurse their grief alone, and care nothing for thesympalby of Ihe public. It Is a leal sortow and tinctured by genuine regret Is all the more poignant and Is never to be paraded before the eyes of the public.

They want to be all alone with tbelr dead, as 11 were, and when they convene for the purpose of weeping and recalling fond memories of the days that are past lliey close the windows, dm ken the room and see that the doors are seem ely fastened. The cause of Iheir soul sickening woe seems to be one Thomas Tunstead, a man with "fishy" aspirations. At a meetiug of the Fish Commissioners, held July 2d, Tuustead i res. tiled a bill of $047 GO for services rendered in the capacity of Deputy Inspector. The boaid knew nothing ol his bill or of his ever having been appointed an Inspector.

Tunstead Iben explained that he had been employed by Chief ot Patrol Fred F. Callundan, at a salary of ilo per mouth, thai he bad tendered holiest and efficient service and expected to be. remunerated according to agreement. Chairman Downey Harvey Informed him that Inasmuch as the board bad not engaged him bim they could not audit his bill. A.N BXPOSUBE THREATENED.

"Very well," replied Tunstead, "ii my bill is not paid I will expose some of lhe questionable methods pursued by Chief of Patrol Callundan lv I. is dealings thoe who have violated the satire laws. I will lell what 1 know, which will be sufficient to land him in Queiilin. 1 will also prove that others In the employ of the commission have unlawfully retained Slate funds and In other ways enriched themselves at the public expense." The ineiubers of lhe board were rather Inclined 10 treat the matter as a huge June perpetrated through motives ot revenge aud prompted by Callundan's refusal to acknowledge that he I a.ij engaged the services of iuuslead as Inspector. Mi.

Ilarvey asked Tunstead If he would present his cliaiges iv the form of a sworn statement, and was lulormed by the latter that he would do so at any time and place which Harvey might name. July Uth was set as the day on which the charges should be listened to by the ooai d. and on that day Tunsiead appeared Willi the charges In writing, but had tailed to have iheui sworn to. aud then tiling was deterred iinill yesierday, when the boaid again was 10 listen to expose. STAR CHAMBER.

The meeting yesterday was called for 1:30 o'clock, ami was held in J. Downey Harvey's private office at 101 Sausome street. A Cam. reporter detailed to report the meeting, liudiug tire other- door open, slipped into the room and look a seal at a small Labi which night have beeu placed theie expressly for reporieis.

Commissioner Koutier anil Downey Harvey were holding a conversation in an undeitoue lii one co: ii. i of tire apartment, each having a typewritten document 111 his band. Harvey was doing most of Ibe talking and gesticulated expressively, while Koutler stiburi.sin.-ly listened aud nervously stroked his beard.

Caiiiiudjii was noticeably uneasy and flashed blood-thirsty glances at Tunstead, who was engaged in masticating a piece of "navy plug" and slailug vacautlv lire wiiiperiug officials. As ihe rep in ter was preparing for action by pulling a point ou a bit of pencil J. Downey Harvey appioached, aud lhe following dialogue look place: "Well, sir, ate the Fish Commissioners to have a nice: ing mis evening asked the reporter. "No, sit; llrey are "It was understood that they would meet to Investigate or listen to Mr. Tunslead's charges." THE PUBLIC NOT WANTED.

"Well, suppose. Who told you that? they will; bin It will be strictly private, and of no Interest to the public. lien we nied you we will let you know." The oiler, thinking thai the Invitation to vacate was unmistakably clear, paled to leave. "Hold on!" shouted Mr. Tunstead, Jumping to lilsf-et.

"This Is not a secret meeting, and the public are interested in the deliberations of their servants, am here to prefer charges of corruption against certain officials, ami I demand that lire whore thing shall be published." "The whole thing will nut be published," said Harvey, "or any pall of il." "I'll have uo star-chamber proceedings In this matter," interrupted Tunstead. "me people have a right to know the nature of these charges, and they kuow whal action you lake regarding them." Turn-lead followed the reporter to tire ball ami said: "Wheu mis meeting Is (over I'll tell you all about "Can you get me a copy of the charges?" were asked.

There was some "tall" evidence given befoie the Coroner's jury In New York lecenlly relative to the death ol the pugilist, Hilly Hiennan. The court-room was lined with pugilists and the pa- Irons of the i lug and the most conspicuous figure among the tub was Davies, who was manager ol the mill at liatteiy The New Yoik Woi id in describing lire case says: Tne Parson wore a look of somber concern that fully justilled bis nickname. -Next to him ait his factotum.

Paddy roll, Iter l.allar. her, Prank Ijarranl and Johnny Mclnuery sat all in a row ami were surrounded by big policemen from the central detail.

Captain Lewis and Lieutenant Alison Backus had seats near Deputy Coroner Sever on, who conducted the laqueat, Kangerl along on one sine of a big table sal tbe jury. Tney had been gathered lv from the street on a forthwith summons. After the) had heard ail the evidence tney reached a verdict within live mluuies. They agreed that Bi eu nan's death was the result of an accidental fall while engaged in a sparring contest with Prank Garrard at nailery i hey made no recommendation concerning the four lighters under arrest, and the police were forced to turn tbem all loose. lire proceedings or the inquest were productive of the uissoinltiallon of a good deal ol technical knowledge about prize-lighting in general aroi sparring lv particular.

Captain Lewis of the Central detail, the first witness, did little In this direction, because he professed lo know nothing about the art. He merely told the story of Hie fatal right as he saw it. lie described now Garrard and Brennan sprang at each other, how they punched right ami leu for three rouuds and how Brenuau finally weut down on bis knees. "Was he knocked down?" the Deputy Coroner asked. "No; he was pushed down, I thought," said the captain.

"Did Harrard strike hlra very hard 1" Oh, he nay have, but 1 could uotiell from where I Stood." lint kind of gloves did they use?" "Large gloves, I thought: but then I don't know much about gloves." Did you see Brennan wheu he fell In the last rou.al 1 did." How did It was be knocked down "lie was not. Be hugged Garrard and they fell together, with Oarrard on lop. Brentiaii's heart struck the Iloor very hard. 1 saw him carried ufl the stage in au unconscious coudition. I arrested Oarrard." 'this was all the captain knew.

What little be ew about prise-fighting was sufficient to convince lil.n that oarrard and Brenuan did not fight very hard. Charles E. Davies, the "Parson," followed Captain Lewis, lie looked very sad and solemn and spoke lv measured accents, lie first told the jury Hint he was manager ot a vsudevlrle and athletic show and that he had engaged Oarrard and itreiuian to spar at 1 bur-day night's entertainment. He engaged them with no promise of compensation to give a friendly exhibition of the manly art. Ordinarily Qneeir.si.erry rules govern such contests when a prize or purse ls at slake, but in this instance there were uo particular rules and the fighters governed themselves, Tlren the Parson began to describe the slugging from the standpoint of an expert.

'iho men slapped and punched eaeu other lightly during the first piuud," be laid. but they did each other no harm. I thought Brenuan the mure clever of the two. "1 heir blows were not hard. They could not be.

Why. take a glove like picking up a pillow from the Coroner's table and holding It before the these could not hurt a man. They make a loud noise when they land, but that Is all. of tbe men were punished In the first ruuud." How was the second rouud About the same." "And the third?" A repetition of the second." The Parson continued: "Hreunan seemed turtuir ate lv escaping Garrard's blows. he fourth round found tlie two men rather tired.

Their blows had no effect. They could uot have hurt each other if they had wauted to." Now to the fifth round," said the Coroner In a businesslike tone. Weil, they sparred wildly for a moment, and then Brennan threw his arms around Garrard's waist. The two fell together, with Garrard on top. Breunan's head struck the floor over a Joist, If It had struck two Inches beyond he probably would not have been hurt.

Garrard's heart landed on P.reunan breast when tbey fell, but he was not hurt. Oarrard looked a trifle astonished when lrtreuuau did not gel up." The Parson then told of the way ltrennan's body was carried from the ring and tire elforts that wore made to revive him. He also explained the differem between knock-out fights and sparring contests for points, and classed Thursday night's contest; with the latter. The Parson retired to make way for Lieuteuant Backus, who simply corroborated the story told him by Captain Lewis. at Ills Piiar.
