: THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, APRIL 19, 1895. 9 WANY 00D PICTURES, Pretty Women and Clever Artists at the Hopkins Institute. OPENING OF THE EXHIBITION. Art Work Is Really Active and Progressive In San Fran- cisco. There can be no doubt of the success of the spring exhibition of the San Francisco Art Association that was opened with a reception at the Mark Hopkins lnstitute of Art last night, with pretty women in er gowns and well-arranged music as animents. v standpoint the opening of the exhibition was auspicious. The es were probably as good as could be I uced by any art association in any city of the size of San Francisco in the Jnited States. While many of the pictures betrayed the | mannerisms of the artist they wereas a | rule good. Around Partington’s picture of Beel, Mathews' portrait of Mrs, Hugo | Robinson’s “‘3eine Haulers,” | “Portrait,” Vermoycken's “Le Recit du Voyage,” Yelland's work, and the clever pen and inks of R. S. and Ger- trude Partington, there was always an ad- g crowd. Tilden’s ‘“Bear Hunt- ers’ in the main_ hall came in| for no little praise, and Tilden | himself rec ny complimentary notes from Thomas Hill, Caroline Rix am Hubaeck, Clara . B.

OUT" AT THE ALMSHOUSE Dedication of the Weaver Memorial Chapel Yes- terday. | | | | | The Hawaliian Cyclorama Has Been Converted Into a House of Worship. The dedication of the new chapel at the Almshouse took place yesterday under the auspices of a corps of the Salvation Army and W. A. Tubb, presiding city mission- ary, an interesting programme being ren- dered in which the following persons par- ticipated: Miss Lillie, Mrs, J. Dempster McKee, Rev. D. O. Kelly, Miss Captain Bowen, 8. A., Captain Manhart, 8. A., Captain Logsdon, 8. A., Sub-Editor Tick- ell of the War Cry, and Rev. W. H. Tubb. The chavel was called **The Weaver Me- morial Chapel,’” in honor of Mrs. P. H. Weaver, wife of the superintendent of the Almshouse. The building was constructed from the Hawaiian Cyclorama building, which was purchased from the Midwinter Fair direc- tors by Superintendent P. H. Weaver, with funds that had accumulated since the last administration, through the financier- ing of the superintendent and directors of the institution, there being no appropria- tion allowed by the Legislature ?or this improvement or its maintenance after completion. The chapel was decorated with paper flowers manufactured by the inmates of the Almshouse and_artistically arranged by the Salvation lassies. The organ which was used in connection with the programme was presented o the chapel by a lady in memory of her daugh- ter, who died a short time ago and who was an indefatigable worker for the benefit of the poor up to the time of her death, The plans were furnished for the chapel by the Prison and Hospital Directors, the construction being superintended by C. Greggs, the architect in connection with the 1nstitution. The buildings at the Almshouse are at resent filled to their utmost capacity, and in case many more _apgficnions are made for admissien it will be necessary to in- crease the capacity of the institution, there being at the present time over 800 inmates. st ad iy Their Sole Support. Emily Winter has sued the San Francisco and 8an Mateo Railway for 50,000 for the death of her husband, Thomas Winter. On the night of June 18, 1893, Winter, with two compan- ions, was driving on K street, when a trolley- car ran into the carriage, and all three were more or less injured. Winter was badly bruised about the head and boag, and never recovered his health, His death occurred on February 1 of this year, At the time of his death his family consisted of his wife and nine children, the eldest of whom is but 18 years of . These are left to the wife to support, and she asks for £50,000 to help her in the task before her. The case has been assigned to Judge Hunt for tri e ————— Americans pay $10,000,000 a year for pea- nuts, THELABOR COMMISSIONER - Mr. Fitzgerald Expects to In- spect the Factories of the State. APPOINTS A SPECIAL AGENT. His Crusade In Behalf of Empiloyes Is to Be Commenced at Once. What has been practically a dead-letter upon the statute-books since its enactment as a law by the Legislature six years ago is to be taken up by the new labor com- missioner, E. L. Fitzgerald, and put into enforcement, if possible, as his very first step toward demonstrating that his office has work to do. The law is known in the ‘‘Statutes of 1889’ as ““An act to provide for the proper sanitation of factories and workshops and the preservation of health of the employed,” approved February 6, 1880. So far as Mr. Fitzgerald has been able to ascertain, no attempt has ever been made to put the law to a test. THe excuses for not doing so have been various, among them having been a doubt in the mind of his predecessors as to its constitutionality. “There is only one way to determine its constitutionality,” says Mr. Fitzeerald, “‘and that is to enforce it."” Accordingly, he proposes to begin an inspection of fac+ tories and workshops at once, and the cro- sade against poorly equipped establish- ments is to be commenced to-day. To assist him in making a most thor- ough investigation he has appointed as a special agent M. A. Roberts, who is secre- of the Federated Trades of Oakland represents as a delegate the American Railway Union in that body. The work of inspection will fall largely upon M?., Roberts, but a regular deputy of tha Labor Bureau will accompany him in the person of E. M. Green,an Oskland ma- chinist. His appointment as deputy was the first thing Mr. Fitzgerald did upon taking possession of his office. Speaking of bis plans yesterday Com- missioner Fitzgerald said: ‘“Where a fac- tory or workshop is reported to me as being in a dangerous or unhealthy condi- tion I propose to make a personal exam- ination; and if Ifind the report substan- tiated I will make such suggestions as I think will remedy the evils complained of. I will give plenty of time for the remedies suggested to be applied, for I don’t intend to work a hardship upon anybody; but I am going to eniorce the law. “There has been a general complaint for some time that employes are not properly accommodated with necessary sanitary conveniences in this city, and particularly | in the cases of females. I am told that it is not an uncommon thh:ig for them to be required to ¥arform hard work, without being properly supplied with seats. And again, I am told some places are very poorly ventilated, and there are certain accommodations which common human- ity would require to be provided that are either inadequate, unfit for use, or im- properly located or arranged. “Now, in this matter I am desirous of receiving suggestions from the public and the press, I don’t come into "this office thin] inf that I know everything, and I am willing to learn. There are soma things I intena to do, however, which have been left undone, and I suppose that is what I am druwin§ a salary for. “Another thing. shall give out in- formation to the public through the press from time to time. T don’tbe%ieve in wait- ing two years and then putting all the ac- crued information in a tabulated form be- fore the public in the shape of a book which a man would not read unless he was paid to do so. I don’t mean to say that this office will not make its customary re- ort and recommendations; what I mean is that the public shall receive the in- formation to which it is-entitled to as master without having to wait two yearsor more. “During the summer I expect to make a few trips through the State to gather in- formation relating to agricultural labor, and I think the results will prove interest- ing to the public. “‘My first work, though, shall be the in- spection of factories and workshops. Em- ployes are entitled to humanitarian con- sideration, especially in matters of sanita- tion; in fact, that much is due to society in the way of health precaution, and it is because I feel prompted by these motives that I shall make a complefe examination. Mr. Roberts is 8 good man and has made as many sacrifices for labor as any other man. Mr. Green is a very intelligent man and I think they will prove an effective team, fair and impartial, but energetic in the performance of their duties.” No appropriation was made by the last Legislature for the support of Commis- sioner Fitzgerald’s office, but that does not bother him, he says. He will fall back upon the statute known as the empower- ing act, apgroved February 9, 1889, Sec- tion 10 of that law provides that the Labor Commissioner is to receive a salary of $3000 a year, the salary of his deputy fo be $1800, and the office to be supported by a sum ‘‘not exceeding $4500”" for the *‘travel- ing” and ‘“‘other contingent expenses of the bureau.” Mr. Fitzgerald will stand on that. He has not :é)pointed his principal dep- uty. From certain sources it is ascertained | that there are a number of aspirants for that position. Among them are Alex McCabe, brother of E. McCabe, Governor Budd’s private secretary, and Cleveland Dam of Oakland, who was formerly sec- retary of the Board of Public Works in that city. Ex-Senator Goucher of Fresno also wants the place. It looks as if the billet might be secured by Mr. McCabe. Incidentally Mr. Fitzgerald will gather statistics on child labor. He expects to attempt a thorough investigation of the employment agency business. Free em- i:‘luyment bureaus will be favored by Mr. itzgerald. During the last legislstive session he attempted to get through a bill Bmvidmg for them. From Commissicner owers’ rerort of the Labor Bureau of Minnesota for 1882 he recalls a statement made by Labor Commissioner Willard G. Hall of Missouri. In that statement Mr. Hall shows that labor in Ohio was robbed annually of $100,000 by these em- ployment agencies. One institution of Columbus made money so fast that the agent was frightened out of town by the immense profits he derived from his fraud- ulent descriptive advertising. He was afraid the wrath of the victims he had de- ceived and swindled would fall upon him if he remained. AFTER THE CHINESE, T0O. Lt oy The State Registration Law of 1891 g to Be Put to a Test. Another thing which Labor Commis- sioner Fitzgerald has resurrected is the State Chinese registration law of 1891, He intends to consult Attorney-General Fitz- gerald as soon as possible, and if the inter- view be favorable proceed at once to en- force the law. Under the law every Chi- nese resident of the State should apply at the Burean of Labor Statistics for a “certifi- cate of residence,” containing his photo- graph, somewhat similar to the require- ments of the Federal law known as the Geary act, and for this certificate a fee of $5would be imposed upon him. The law provides for an indefinite number of depu- ties to issue such certificates, their com- pensation to be $1for each certificate is- sued. 1f Attorney-General Fitzgerald concludes that the law can be enforced without conflicting in any manner with Federal prerogatives, a very large patron- ge in the appointment of such .d’c;;ntiu would fall to the Labor Commissioner, to be ‘followed, perhaps, by an invasion of eager candidates. The law would also_give to the State a nice sum of money in the shape of a “Chinese fund,” for which it makes elab- orate provision. “It would mean $500,000 to the State,” observed the Commissioner with some enthusiasm, “‘considering that there are over 100,000 Chinese in Cali- fornia.” And he remarked lateron: “I don’t see why they should not be com- pelled to get these certificates of residence, anyhow. It would be just like making them pay a State poll-tax, and residence here ought to be worth that much to them.” This law is known as “An act to pro- hibit the coming of Chinese persons into the State, whether subjects of the Chinese empire or otherwise, and to provide for registration and certificates of residence, and determine the status of all Chinese ersons now resident of this State, and gxin penalties and punishment for the violation of this act, and providing for the deportation of eriminals.” What it act- ually does besides requiring registration is to provide for the deportation of every Chinese coming here, other than such as come in an official capacity as representa- tives of the Chinese Government, or sim- plil pass through the State in transit. ts penalties for assisting Chinese to un- lawfully enter the State are decidedly se- vere and_the State courts would have full jurisdiction, with this saving feature, how- ever, that in the cases of Chinese who could not defray the expenses of their own deportation, the court findings would be transmitted to the Governor and by him sent to the Secretary of the Treasury, with a request that they be deported at the ex- ense of the Government of the United tates. Only a very feeble effort has ever been made to enforce this law. Ex-Commis- sioner Walts reported that out of a possible 72,472 Chinese, according to the census of 1890, only four made application for certifi- cates of residence, and it subsequently cost the Btate $401 17 for the publication of notices to Chinese in the newspapers. These notices were ordered by the act to be published in one newspaper of every county. ‘Whether to have attempted to put it into enforcement would bave brought the State into conflict with the Federal author- ities is a question. At any rate Commis- sioner Fitzgerald will putitto a test and see, he says. Some of its Emvisions ag to transportation agents might run up against the interstate law in a manner bardly yet foreseen. For instance, it compels all ticket agents, conductors of trains, cap- tains and pursers of vessels to demand of all Chinese asking for passage the produc- tion of their certificates of residence, and in case no such certificate can be shown, to arrest the offenders and turn them over to peace officers for prosecution. This must be done even when a Chinese simply wants to go from one place to-another within the State. ‘Whatever issue might arise between the government of this State and that of the nation there the law is upon the statute- books. It has never been repealed or nullified, says Mr. Fitzgerald, and he doesn’t see why it should not be enforced. Of the Chinese fund to accrue $2000 is | placed at the Commissioner’s disposal. Out of twenty-four sections constitutin, the act there are two which expressly an unmistakably cover the question of de- portation. One of them was probably aimed at Japanese felon: SELF-DEPENDENT WOME, They Meet and Hear Instructive Addresses on Many Subjects. Prominent Ladles of this City and Oakland Attend the Gath- ering.

The Salic law, which has prevailed in France since the fifth century, prohibits women from as- cending the throne for 200 years and more. The women of France were the most brilliant, the most fascinating and the most ambitious in the world, and notwithstanding the Salic law virtually ruled the kingdom—for better or for worse I shall not say. She then aliuded to the brilliant intellec- tual women of France, and concluded by saying: Literary clubs are an essential factbr in the recovery of the lost art of conversation. These clubs, like the banyan tree,should take root and spread in all directions so that the art and charms of conversation may be cultivated and developed, pouring out the treasures of soul and music, and be the magnetic attraction of the home around which all attractions should cluster. The following programme was_then ren- dered: Piano = solo, ‘‘Halte des Chas- seurs,” Mrs. M. Isadore Knox; ‘“The Ideal- ism of Emerson,” an interesting and well- prepared paper by Mrs. Benjamin Peart; vocal solo, ‘“‘Aubade,” by Mme. Emilia Tojetti. Mrs. George W. Haight read a monologue which _elicited nlpdp ause. ‘‘A Plea for the Time-Honored Ideal of Wo- manhood,” by Mrs. Louis Weinmann, was @ clear expression of the ideas entertained by the majority of the club. A Scotch song by Mrs. Lois Anderson and “Reminis- cences of Miles Standish,” by Mrs. Charles F. Johnson coneluded the programme. ——————— Assessments Are Not Taxes. Judge Beawell has rendered a decision in the suit of Daniel E. Easterbrook against the city and county of San Francisco which practicall; ends the suit. The plaintiff asked $5785 43, which he alleged he had paid under protest and only when Tax Collector James N. Block was about to sell his K"""" for non-payment of an_assessment. The property is on Butter street, near Grant avenue, and the assessment was the special levy for the bonds issued for the widening of Dupont street for the years 1889, 1890, 1891, 1892 and 1893. The plain- tiff sought to show that the whole tax was illegal and the threatened sale wrongful.

IT HAS NOT PROPER GUARDS. Patrick Winn, the Motorman, Has Been Charged With Man~ slaughter. “We, the jury, charge Patrick Winn with manslaughter and censure the rail- road company for gross negligence in not having proper guards on the cars, and also for allowing the cars to be runatan ex- cessive rate of speed,” was the verdict in the inquest held on the remains of little Eugene Langford, who was killed on Kearny street, near Washington, about two weeks ago, while on his way to school. In company with his sister he was cross- ing the street, when the car came along and crushed his life out. The body could not be got from under the wheels and the current had to be turned on and the car forced over the body. A dozen people who witnessed the shocking scene were called to tell what they knew. The testimony of the major- ity of them was to the effect that the car .was running at a lively rate and that Patrick Winn, the motorman, was looking ‘l? Washington street instead of along earny. On the stand Winn swore that he had taken every precaution, He rang the bell at the crossing and did all in his power to | stop the car when he discovered the child was on the track. The little fellow was dragged about seven feet before the car could be stopped, according to the witness, He also swore that the car was provided with the necessary equipments for throw- ing obstacles off the track. His testimony was_corroborated by John Bremen, the conductor, who said that the car was mov- ing at a low rate of speed. The jury paid great attention to the testi- mony and questioned the witnesses fre- quently.” They endeavored to establish the | . fact that the cars on the Kearny-street line | are run at a very high rate of speed, dan- gerous to life and limb. They also sought information as to whether the electric cars were provided with proper guards. The jury evidently came to the conclusion that the cars were run at a great rate of speed, and that proper guards were not_provided. The electric cars have now killed three children in three weeks. The Mission- | street lime is responsible for two of the | deaths and the Kearny-street line for the third. A movement is on foot to have the cars run at a Iess rate of speed and to see | that the law requiring guards on the cars | is enforced. OHARITABLE OHILDREN.
