SAN FRANCISCO. CnL Feb. 25.
Terrible, heartrending poverty is
the solo incentive of the great hordes
of Hindus who are seeking to come
to America, nccording to Itojnh Rao.
who is hero today on his way from
Bombay to Cambridge, where he will
take nn advanced courses at Har
vard. He is n young East Indian of
high caste nnd already is well edu
cated. He continued:
"That samo poverty is tho reason
why you never see many women
among tho Hindus that come to yonr
country. It is about all the men can
do to secure the money necessary to
pay their fa.ro to the United States,
ami this, amounts to a httto more
intin $100. There is such a vast
population in India, and such ex
treme poverty among tho masses
xnni u is simpiy necessary lor as
rnany of them as can get out to seek
cflicr field?,
"It Is the densely ignorant kind,
loo, that clings so tenaciously to the
little- requirements of their religion
and trivial habits. The more intelli
gent men from India seeking labor in
this country will soon put away these
objectionable habits and make them
selves more agreeable as residents or
citizens.

Edward Murray, who has given the
poHco more or less trouble, was ar
rested Thursday afternoon for being
drunk and disorderly.
Ho was fined JS by Judgo Elfert
thla morning and warned to make
himself conspicuous by his absence.
Thla ho promised to do.
Tho story Is told that Murray at
tempted to "go through" a man whom
ho thought sufficiently under the In
fluence of tho beverages that flow
along Front street to be oblivious to
ovorythlng; but tho fellow woko up
and proceeded to do things to Mur
ray, making him come back with whnt
he had taken. The man whom Mur.
ray attempted to rob could not be
found and tho best way out seemed to
be to fino him pretty nearly all the
money ho had and give him moving
orders.
John Benson pleaded guilty to be
ing drunk, and as it was his first of
fense ho was let off with a lecture
and a $5 fine.
