FIGHT ON WHARF

One Man Was Knocked Uncon-

scious—No Arrests.
Boozers and bruisers joined
together last night in a con-

vivial party on the wharf. The
blows were going fast and furious
about 12:45 a. m., when the
shindy was espied by some of the

residents at the Inn. These
promptly informed the police,
who rushed immediately to the
scene, only to find that the com-

batants had discerned in discre-
tion the better part of valor and
had vanished from the scene.
How they removed from the
battlefield one of their number
who had been knocked uncon-
scious is still something of a
mystery, but it is thought that
he was shoved on to the Prince
George, which was preparing to
weigh anchor.

THE VEIL 1S LIFTED
FROM LOVERS’ FEASTS

Screened Compartments at Royal |
Hotel Are Abolished—All the
Licenses Renewed. j
The applications for renewett
of liquor licenses made by eight
hotels and two wholesale dealers |

had managed to get the curtains
removed which screened the com-
partments in the dining room of
the Royal Hotel. The chief has
for some time been wanting a)
bylaw passed to forbid the use of
these curtained compartments in
restaurants. Now, while it is
not yet passed, he has succeeded
in having them abolished. Secret
suppers will therefore be, for the
future, an impossibility at the
hotel and every man must dis-
close to the world both what he
eats and whom he eats it with,
whether he devours beefsteaks by
himself or tastes caviar with some
ravishing beauty of a passing
chorus.

STEPPED TO DEATH
IN GLOOM OF NIGHT

Body of Missing Bank Cierk Was
Found Floating at Head of
False Creek.

Special to The Daily News.

 

Vancouver, June 19.—The body
of John McLennan, the clerk of
Molson’s Bank who disappeared

on March 22nd, and who has been
searched for far and wide, was
found yesterday afternoon in a
badly decomposed condition float-
ing at the head of False Cree’.
As there are no marks of violence
about the body, it is believed that
McLennan met his death by
stepping during the dark of night
from the street end into the
water. He was 30 years of age
and had been in the employ cf
the bank for 13 years.

San Diego, Cal. June 19—
When President Wilson signed
the Kettner bill extending to the
San Diego Exposition the same
privileges and the same author-
ity granted to previous exposi-

and character had prepared for
it.

Starting with a comparatively
modest plan in 1909, in a city at
that time of 39,000 people, the
San Diego Exposition was not
taken seriously outside the im-
mediate cirele of the city’s in-
fluence. Steady work of prepar-
ation, devotion of capital to the
amount of $50 per man, woman
and child in the city, and a well-
defined plan for the profitable
participation of states and gov-

The silence of the ministers as
