Special Correspondence of The Tribune, SAN Fraxcisco, dsn. 13.~There has been no more fruitful theme of conversation for months than the whereabouts of Duncan and Le Warno, the absconders. Deluding telegrams have been reccived from various portions of the country, and not a ship salled out of port for several weeks after their departure but that the Chief of Police was notifiedf their cscape. It created no small sensation, therefore, when t was discovered on Monday last that the two fugitives had been harbored in San Francisco 1 these months, and were living ail that time Tithia three doors of the Chief of Police. When that official received intimation of thbe ct be was unfortunate cnough for a day to Jook upon it as another guy. Doncan and Le ‘Warne meantime were warned of danger, and when the house was scarched the birds had flown again. Speculation is as rife as ever. The people who sheltered and assisted the fleeing bankers came very near getting themselves into a most uncomfortable kettle of fish. The l4dy of the house, one Mrs. White, har- bored them unknown to her liere lord, acir- camstance which shows that the man of the Touse could mot have frequently explored his possessions, although he was absent agreat deal of the time. Ars. White was the bosom {ricnd of Mrs. Le Warne ard Mrs. Smedburg, the daughters of Dupcan, and has given bountiful test of the truth of her friendship. Ar. Duncan’s young wife scems to have been. unacquainted with her busband’s near vicinity. She is said to bave been left absolutely desti- tute, with three little children to provide for, onc of them a babe only 1 month old. The two daughters, Mrs. Smedburg and Mrs. Le Warpe, assisted by Willic Duncan, tbe son, apd a yvoung broker, Du Val by name, who ex- presses himself as being under obligation to the family which he can never repay, have managed the entire affair. It is not known how Duncan 2nd Le Warne received intelligence of their latest danger, and an cffort hias been made to trace the source to high places. Atall cvents, they escaped before a watch Bad been placed upon the suspected house, and have gone no one knows whither. ‘The young man Du Val drove up ina car- carriagef and togk Duncan away with him. He returned shortly after with a buggr, and drove awav with Le Warne through the open streets. There is a frantic desire 10 punish some ong for all this collusion, but they do not scem in- clined to punish all hands around, and can’t tell Just which one to settle upon. ‘The Grand Jury passed a vote censaring the Chicl of Police, 3na made some attempts to embrace Mavor Bryant’s bame within the vote of censure, but he was afterwirds jud ged to be * quite blameless. b An attempt was also made to find a bill of indictment aminst Mrs. White, but the lady threw herself upon the jury’s mercy, and ghow- ed herself to be so purely actuated ivy friend- ship, such as will not frequently bear such a practical strain, that she has been allowed to go hier way unbarmed. ‘The unhappy daughters of Duncan, one of whom is the wife of the companion of his fiieht, are considered almost justitied in rendering 1emsclves amenable to the law. R Willic Duncan and Duval were arrested, but went out on bail to-day. The indignation acainst Duncan and Le Warne and the sympathy with their families make the fecling about the affair very conflict~ ing. They must be two mosi abjectly miscrable me. Besides the suffering they have entailed upon g0 many poor people in this most disastrous year, they have broken up a most charming fam- ily circle. -~ As usua) with such people, they dispensed a ‘bountcous hospitality, and their homes were the scenes of constant reunmions and merry- - makings. Only last year Duncan celebrated his wooden wedding with one of the prettiest par- ties of the season. ; This year his bandsome belongings are all scattered, for be was the first of our art con- noisseurs; his poor little wife is nursingz ner nisery in’ contracted quarlers, and the open- Joored, hospitable home bas become a boarding- house. Mrs. Le Warne's story is_sadder yet. Both ‘husband and father have failed, and there is something horrible in the thomght of their com- licity: P*Fiflie Duncan fs baving a nard time, His . money was engulfed in the ruin. Beside the immense responsibility of having the sccret of his father’s nidinz, he is burdened with tbe maictenance of the abandoned families, togeth~ er with Ins own. - . Although for himself he is highly esteemed and liked, there is a bad flavor to the very name .of Duncan, and his life has become a constant. ‘pull against a strorg tide. STOCKS. Every one is pulling against thetide just now, Festaraay was the Drack Friday which is con: fidently expeeted to precede the - ““spring risc,” -and the number of pale, panic-stricken faces on the streot could not be counted. Bulletins were issued by the newsmongers every little while tothe effect that this one or 4nat one had gone in, or as some of the tele- graphic dispatches from Virginia City delicately expressed it, * Were gouged.” ‘Ihe bonanzas were not responsible for the panic this time, although the aunual report of ihe SuperintenaeutBof’ Consolidated Vizginia, advising that the aividend be reduced to 31, bad 8 most displriting effect. Alta stands responsible for the disasters of Festerdas. 1t has been the favorite toy of specu- ators for weeks, and there has been 3 very gen- eral looking forward to its touching §100 at no gistant date. ‘When it rattled from $29 down to $6, allina day, the effcet was dccidedly unpleasant. ‘The Big Finn came somawhat to the rescue. Their representative brokers took the market upon their shoulders and carried it, so that by nightfail the feeling was casier. (he informal sessions of the Stock Board have been given over almost exclusively to dealing in Alta. It is said that in ope day 100,000 shares chanzed hands. There are 105,000 sbares in the mine, 55,000 of which are held by the Cook brothers, who deny baving parted with one share, or with having anythine to do with the deal. 3 No onc who bas been Litten pays any atten- tiou to these statements. A minc whose value. advances 3,000 per cent within one year srithout any visible reason, no ‘bopanza havinz heen discovered, has been, not to put too fine a point upon it, pooled. Of course execrations are loud anddeep. But what can anybody do? These trying times are necessary now and then in order to keep the statistics straight. When the *spring rise ”” comes all'will be forgotten. Central Pacific Railrozd stock w2s listed unon the San Francisco Stock sud Exchange Board during the week. The stock has been on the New York market Tor some time, but had not been offered for sale in San Francisco before, owing to the difference in value between gold and currency, which would have made it necessary to have an ic- countant at each end of the liuc to sdjust the daily fluctuations of value. : . Tgc railroad magnates evince no special desire 10 part with their property, but it is thousht . that as a Jarger pumber of moncyed men ba- come intercsted inits profits, so it management and its welfare would be furthered. It would be impossible that it should long continue so close nwrgamfian as it has been, 50 they have simply yieided graccfully and pre- - maturely to the inevitable. - Gov. Stantord computes the earnings of the road in 187G to have been $18,000,000. 1t promises to be a favorite permanent invest- ‘ment for large capital. omis Kearney having found it fmposs Mr. Dennis Ecarney baving foun - ; ble Jonger to restrain himself, delivered himself {-of amost inflammatory address on lsst Satur j, bail together to get bimself out of the jug. On Tuesday evening Le once more mounted the rostrum.—a disused dry-goods box,—and was again escorted to the City Prison. Nothing daunted, he came forth_again, and 1ast night made auother speech. He betins to like arrest asa boy likes jujube-paste. Ile keeps on trying it to'sce which will zet the bet~ ter of the situation. Last night, however, he was permitted to rest in lodzings of his own providing, but will again o into jail to-night. Meaniime the procession to the City-Hall under his guidence the other day has had some cffect. The mea offered to worls for $1 per day, and work is to be provided for them at that rate, for atime atleast. % 5 They are endeavoring to pass & bill through the Legisiature providing a fund out of which to pay them. In themeantime, Flood & O'Brien have voluuteered to the city a loan of $100,000 for that purpose. The strect-sweeping machines are to be banished for the nonce, and the strects are to be cleancd by hand-labor. . Also the work of improvement is to go on in Golden Gate Park, and the near administration of the Lick fund is anticlpated. TIE LICK FUND, 1ike dead men’s money gencrally, has been the cause of much wrangling, disputing, law-giving, and other vexations. It is possible that the old mau really meant to benefit Sau Francisco when he made his famous dced of trust. But he was a cantankerous, sour, rusty old miser at best, and he managed, before he dicd, to take all the beauty of giving out of the gilt. He quarreled with cversbody belonging to him and everybody around him. IHis favorite form of expression was a snarl, and probably no man living ever shook nim by the hand witha cordial and hearty grasp. Although the hotel which bears his name, «The Lick Mouse,” was a mania with bim, he had anew landlord with every change of the maon. - He had anew cook with every freak of his appetite. He bad a new nuree with every fresh outbreak of spleen. Altogether, he was not a cheerful person. Everybody thought so and said so, until he made his deed of trust. Instantly the news- ‘papers took Lold of him and deitied him. They gave columns upon columns of praisc to him, and columns upon columns of deseriptions 1o his contemplated observatory, conservatories, bis public baths, ete. ‘The last-named gift can never have been in- cited by his innate love for cleanliness. During the last seven or eight months of his life he never suffered the windows of his room to be cleaned, the curtains to be washea, or the floors to be swept. He bought_every nexspaper from every part of the world which contained a line of his raise. They surrounded his bed in stacks. In fact, he_lay beneath billows of newspapers and praise. He liked to hear Aimself called the great philanthropist, but he really took very Hittle solid enjoyment, out ot being one. He was thoroushly indignant at the idea of being obliged to die at anything less than 100 years of age. _ He was accustomed to parade the upper cor- ridor of the hotel at odd’ times. On sach ocea- sions he arrayed himself in white flannel under- clothing and a lone fur-trimmed overcoat. His face was the folor of yellow parchment: his nose and chin exchanged civilities; his beard was dyed a rusty and most obtrusive black; his wig was dark and preternaturally thick. He was werk, and bent, and old, and cross. It wias not a petty picture! All this is sacri- lege. Weare not allowed to say these thing: in California, because he gave us sowe money Bu'; we bave none of it yet, and we may as well enpress a hittle opinion. Of course, the entire brood of Licks sued for ashare of the property upon the death of the philanthropist. At the present writing they are engaged in effecting a vompromise with his son, Johu Lick. The agrcement is to be that upon the payment of $374,000 he relinquishes all claim to the estate forever. The point at issue has been the right of the trustee to include the money asonc of the neeessary expenses incurred in the administra- tion of thic estate. Tler are settling it satisfac- torily after some manner beyond the ken of ordivary 1wortals, and then ho! forthe long- delayed philanthrepy ! THE THCATRES. ‘the theatres have all renved somewhat from the season of starnancy and depression. The “Black Crook™ at the Caltforuia is to be fol- lowed by a spectade wizh the cheerful and sus- gestive title. “Five Hundred Thousand Devils,” —of course an adaptation from the German. 1t is astonishing the delizht which these placid_pleasure-loving, comfort-secking peoplo take in' demoniac revels, red fire, skelctons, ‘Walpurgis nights, ete. There is always an ele- ment of the mysterious or the supernatural in their favorite plays and poems, but 500,000 devils is rather a’ liberal supply of tne article even for those who like devils. Managers Hill and Loeke will conjoin their forces as hitherto, a combination which has ‘been productive of ood luck for both. ‘The Union Square Company are playing ** Led Astray ” this week to rood business. This about closes theirlist of strong attractions,and they are about to fall back on *“Ours,’ * Caste,” and other of that ]k, to which they will doubtless lend a mew charm by that perfection of ensemble for shing themseives. House a genuine hit has been made by Miss Katherine Lewis, who shines like a pearl among pebbles in the Adah Richmond burlesque troupe.

SWEET SINGER OF MICHIGAN AvESDE, - Curecaco. Jan. 19, 187S. HIT TIE NATL ON THE IIEAD. Ty the Editor of The Tribune. Cmicaco, Jan. 19.—In his two concluding paragraphs, “A Male Citizen” has hit the right vail on the bead, square. The ladies are the only creatures to getthe Street-Car Com- panics to do anything: let us keep on making the swect darlings uncomfortable, and thes. @’s. will keep on making a row, and ultimately we shall get what we want—2 seat for all, and doudle the cars ruanis 1t woutd be a boon in both ways, for there are plenty of men out of employment. “Teaser's " frank avowal that he will not give up bis seat to a lady all paint and feathers, nor to a poor fatigued workiwoman, is characteristic of the mav, for be owns be does so to znastract- ive girl—presumably on thehope of a * mash.’? He must belong tothe class “ Granger” de- nounces 5o strongly, and with such good rea- son. As I neither chew mor spit, I sympathize strongly with “ Femme Sole 5 it is a beastly habit, and should be discountenanced by any one calling himself a gentleman, To * Phileme” I will say that I never pa- tronized the State street line; 1saw from the first it was too hizh-toned for me; so I coula not li:u-c becn themiscrable puppy be insicuates me to be.

SMOKING ON THE CARS. 7o the Edilor of The Tribune. Ca1cAGO, Jan. 19.—Now, I do like to hear a lady talk once in & while, and I think the music of their voices sounds like rippling wavelers and all that sort of thing, but, when a lady sits deliberately down to atable, and writes such stul about spitting and hoes, and all that rot, by Jove, I rebel at once, and must kack through your columns, etc. One lady says a gentleman rode all the way {rom State street to Robey on an open car and smoked all the way. I take the Iiberty of denyingthis assertion; youcan’t make @ cigor last that far. A good 10 or 15 cent cigar will last te sbout Halsted again, what business had this 1ady on the three rear seats anyhow{ Now, I once fired off a shot about smoking on the cars last summer, and [ fmucss my sentiments were adopted, for ther¢ is Just as ‘much smoke as there ever was. s uscless to argue with the powers that be, dear ladies, and if you don't like our style just walk, or 20 on foot, or anvthing, but don't fall about it, or you never will get’ a scat anyhow. The fault is, however, witly our car companies solely. They should be compelled to adopt the French ruleand seat sll who ride, or no pay and no ride. See? Now I have said all I want to, and L will give you a short witticism which comes in Pat just here: "T'wwas thenight hefore Christmas, etc., and the car was snugly full, when a lady got on, and about the time the car had gone a block she managed to work her way alonw to - the middle, Jjust in front of a curt old bachelor.

To the Editor of The Tribune, Cn1caco, Jan. 19.—[ am one of the nnfor- tunates who are obliged to ride in the cars of the North Side Railway, on the Larrabee line, and I speak the opinions of hundreds of my fellow- unfortunates when Isay that for filthy cars, impudent and disobliging corductors, and a general managewment that shows an utter disre- gard of the comfort, convenience, or wishes of their “must-be patrons,” this road towers far above all competitors. These cars, filthy at all times, are in wet weather unfit for the transportation of stock; and many who remember the long spell of wet weather Jast fall must recall with loathing the diseraceful condition in which these cars werc to be found. Onthe first trip they were wet and muddy from the travel of the day before, and at 6 o'clock they were under a zood three inches of beaten mud. 1 have frequently counted eigity-five people on one of these cars, making such a heavy load for a pair of thin, small, aud. half-siarved horses that some of the passengers were com- pelled to assist in shoving the car up an incline. Ou the Lincoln avenue route, the cars are bet- ter; some are very good; but the conductors arc as impudent when thev can find a chance as on the other line, giving one the impression that their Superintendent considers fmpu- dence and g course of pelty annoyauces towards passengers very desirable qualities. The oblig- iug conductors on the North Side could be counted an the fingers of one hand. This management may add a percentage to the annual dividend, but, in case of 2 rival company starting, 1t will drive very nearly ail their present passengers off the North Cufcago Railway. : Are there no capitalists who can oreanize a good cowpany and employ 2 Superintendent who will employ men who can give more atten- tion to the interests of the road than merely clutching at o fare as soon as one’s foot touches the steo? i And will some lezal friend give an opinion as to the rizhts of those who stand up, and the right of the Company to collect from them. Let us hear from avother North Sider. Yours truly, A PASSENGER. GIVE TIIE DEVIL HUIS DUE. To the Editor of The Tribune. Cnicaco, Jan. 19.—Will you zrant me a little space in Tue TriseNE? My object is to show how inordinately unreasonable some people are in their demands upon a corporation which con venience comels them to patrouize to some ex- tent. Ispeak with refercnce to the numerous complaints against the horse-car companies of this city. Imay state here that it is not from any mereenary motive that I send you this com munication. I ride quite often on the Cottage Grove line, and 1ay observations are that the South Side Company is as well managed, and caters as much to the wishes of the complaining portion of the public, as any other Compsny in the country. The burden of complaint seems to be that weary people arc not furnished with seats on what arc known as ‘“‘rush trips.” It requires buta moment’s_thought by thinking people to see how impracticable, not to say un- reasonable, it is to expect the Car Companies to seat everybody on these trips. I find, upon inquiry, that at the “rush time” in the ovening there are twenty-eizht *regular and ten ‘‘extra® cars sent out. which places them only two minutes apart from Thir- ty-uinth street. There are also nine “regular cars run from Twenty-fifth street. Indiuna av- enue people find a like number there; so that below Eighteenth street there is little cise than two continuous lines of cars running either way ou Wabash aveoue. Similar_scencs on State atrect. The West and North Side Compa- nics, I beiieve, acquit themsclves as creditably. 1t is about five miles from Thirty-ninth strect to Randolph street—one cent a mile. Pray, complaining populace, what further accommo- dations would you like for a cent a mile? The truth of the matter that the * growls ” come not from the better class, but from the obtuse excrescences of society, who have little or no other employment tnan to find fault with everything aud everybody about them. The only preseription that will ever remedy the mal- ady in those chronics is for them to take an exudation in the olden orthodox sweat-box. PESTLE. A MEDLAY. To the Editor of The Tribune. Cmcaco. Jan. 18.—Without taking sides with * Female Citizen ™ and * Also Female Citizen,” X will pass on to the facts of strect-car etiquette. “Teaser " in last Sunday’s issuc is rather teas- ing, that’s a fact; but let him work all day like the said woman, perhaps a seat in a street-car would feel a lee-tle restinz. Now ** A Male Cit- izen ™ gives a remedy for that, and the powers of woman are g0 great that they can at Jeast try it. “Simple Jane” puts it semsibly, and I think il a3 man that has been travel- ing around on foot all day doing business, and consequently feels pretty tired, | that, if he gets on a car and gets a seat, I think he should hold on to it *like grim death,” and not give it up to a woman that has been around inquiring the prices of dre -oods, and not buy- iing _anytning; or, perhaps (to compromis - buying two papers of pins for five cents. Again, 1f 3 women has been worling very hard all day, and i3 a poor woman, I think it would show the lady in a lady to Ict her have her scat, or atleast try to wale room for ber, or to do the same for an old or sick womau. And I thiok, Mr. ‘Editor, that you ought to try and oblize * Cray- on 8auce.” " Whv, the cobsequence is, THE TRIBTNE would be in all the homes in the uni- veree. STREET-KERK, WHAT ALL PROCLAIM.

MoLLiz E. Prans. Q0 “John " on a Walking-Beam, Tt was the third night after Christmas, and Engineer Golden, of Virginia City, Nev., was on duty in a section of the works underground, where stoud a huge pumping engine and a_ big air compresser. A door at the head ot a flight of stone steps had opened several times and . let in currents of cold air, which had chilled his marrow; and each tine hie bad gone up stairs and latched the door_ without discovering the intruder. Once morc the door swung open, and he started up the stens with a curse on his lips, when suddenly he saw in front of him the withered face of an aged Chinaman, in whose eyes blazed the fires of opium madness. En- gincer Golden rcturned to the engine room aud retreated around the pumping apparatus. Scarcely had he taken refuge behind that huge piece of machivery, when his midnight visitor appeared at the foor of the stairway and glared at him. Then the Chinaman start- cd to climb straight across the cngine toward his cnemy. The engine was on the down-stroke when he set out, and before he could get across the walking-beam carried bim up toward the ceiling. Buthe was at home in the saddle, and secmed to cnjoy the motion. Had he becn two feet nearer the bishop-head he would have been crushed to deathat the first stroke of the pump. It chanced, however, that the position he occupicd was about the onty safe one on the whole length of the beam, A% the Chinaman’s legs' ond attempted to drag ition, but the fellow , with a blade some ehich he begau whirl- iually the cozincer got an iron rod, and with'the end of it tickied the Celestial gymnast in the ribs, making it §o un- pleasant for him that, after backing the iron for a time with his knife, he got off the beam about as he had mounted. him from his perilous d double-edged ANMUSEMN. _ HOOLEY'S THEATRE, SIMON QUINEIN sud F.
