THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THUR SDAY, MAY 16, 1895. THE GRAND JURY DELAYED Barclay Henley Fails to Appear Before the Investi- gators. PURIFICATION OF LAKE MERCED The Assallants of Gus Mooney In- dicted for Fear of Police Court Actlon. The Grand Jury did not have avery long meeting yesterday on account of the failure of the Civie Federation to produce evi- dence to sustain its charges against the | Solid Eight of the Board of Supervisors. | It was stated that Barclay Henley, who | represents the Civic Federation as its attorney, will surely appear before the Grand Jury to-morrow, and that he will lay before the jurorsa lot of valuable in- formation. - After that is done a few other witnesses will be heard, and tben the Supervisors will be called before the jury one at a time and closely questioned in regard to the points in evidence which concern them. The next two or three meetings of the jury are expected to be somewhat enter- taining. Behrend Joost of the San Francisco and Ban Mateo electric road gave his evidence in regard to his attempt to obtain a fran- chise for a branch road from the main line to the new racetrack mow being built near the County line. He testified as follows: &1 went to Supervisor Morgenstern . and stated my proposition to him, and asked what iy chances were for getting a fran- chise, Morgenstern told me' that he sup- posed it would be all right, but that I must go to see General John H. Dickinson, his attorney. “I thought 1 knew what he meant,” added Mr. Joost with a smile, which re- ceived a similar response from members of the jury, “‘but I thought I would consult my attorney, Mr. Campbell, first. - He told me not to go to General Dickinson, and I did not.” This was about all Mr. Joost could tell, and while it left an impression on the minds of the jurors they did not consider it evidence of much strength on which to find an indictment. The jurors had a_desultory talk on the rincipal points which will embraced in the forthcoming report of the jury. The jurors received with pleasure the news that Charles Webb Howard of the Spring Valley Water Works had already following new board: Commander, Ma- jor A, D. Gormwood; vice-com- mander, Colonel S. I Kellogg; record- n_xg‘ secretary, E. N. Snook; finan- cial secretary, C. P. Le Breton; treasurer, C. 8. Benedict; finance committee—J. P. Robertson, C. I. Cram and John McComb. _After the election the veterans did jus- tice to a banquet spread in the armory. HIS CONDITION TUNOHANGED. Ex-Governor Burnett Hovers Between Life and Death. The condition of ex-Governor Burnett was unchanged up to a late hour last night. His physician said that no immediate change in his condition was expected, but that_he was very low, and he might suc- cumb any time, and tbat again, he might ultimately recover, but his condition at the present time made it very difficult to form any definite opinion as to the out- come of his present illnes: SHARP PASSAGE AT ARMS, The Salary of Dr. Grant at the Almshouse the Cause of It. Dr. Regensburger and Superinten- dent Weaver the Partles to It. At the meeting of the Board of Health yesterday morning there occurred one of those tart little passages-at-arms that re- lieve the monotony of these things. Dr. Grant is an old-time physician, who went to the Almshouse some time ago voluntarily to become an inmate. Out of regard for him and to take away the stigma of his lot the Board of Health made him a place as assistant nurse at $12 a month. Superintendent Weaver found him incompetent for the place and transferred him to the Last Chance, the hospital for incurables, where he was to serve as night watchman. Dr. Regensberger asked Superintendent Weaver if Dr. Grant was competent to perform the duties of night watchman, re- marking that if so he should receive the salary of a night watchman, $30 per month. Mr. Weaver said Grant was not compe- tent; that he was supposed to look about the place during the night to see that the patients did not fall out of bed, but that he vl;'ns old and weak, and really slept all night. EHow do you know?” inquired Dr. Re- gensburger rather acrimoniously. “You aven't been over to the Last Chance for six months.” “That is not true,’”” said Weaver. “Not strictly true. No,” said Dr. Re- begun to take action in regard to Lake Merced, as he recently pledged himself to do. The Spring Valley Water Works has commenced to build a wall around Lake Merced so as to purify the water therein. A. E. Buckman, a contractor, is already at work. The;lan is to wall up the sides of Lake Merce: little tributary creeks which pollute the waters of the lake will be diverted so that it will iow around the lake and out to the ocean. The contract is for about $150,000, so the Bpring Valley Water Works claim. It is said that subterranean streams are suffi- cient to keep the lake well supplied with pure water. Mr. Howard has assured the Grand Jury that the water of the lake will not be used until it is declared pure. The Grand Jury found two indictments yesterday. The Police Department feared that there would be an attempt to_juggle the cases of Harry Wheatley and Stephen Smith in Judge Joachimsen’s court, so the matter was quickly settled by the Grand Jury. Wheatley and Smith are charged with an atfempt to rob and kill Gus Moouey. At 2:30 o’clock on the morning of May 2 Mooney was stopped at the corner of Mason'and O’Farrell streets by two men. As one ordered him to hold up his hands so that all the water from the | 1 gensberger. ‘“You were over there on the occasion of the Governor’s and Mayor's visit. Tam told that Dr. Grant not only performs his duties as night watchman but helps attend the sick. I think his pay should be increased to $30.” Superintendent Weaver said Grant was , feeble and mentally unbalanced and not competent for the place. His (Grant’s) own wife had told him he was insane and should be in an asylum. - Meyor Sutro said he thought that Dr. Grant was receiving as much as his services were worth and the $12 per month was al- lowed to remain. IN THE LAND OF SILVER. An Ydaho Miner Tells Some Interesting Facts About the Northern Country. Thomas F. Crawl, miner, prospector and silverite, from Wallace, Idaho, is in San Francisco for the purpose of agitating the free silver coinage movement in & quiet way. Mr. Crawl was earnestly watching a game of three-ball billiardsat the Bald- win yesterday afternoon when he was sc- costed by a reporter who knew him during Mooney struck the fellow a sharp blow with his fist. The other footpad shot at Mooney and the two ran_down Mason street to Ellis and down Ellis. Mooney: followed them, shouting at the top of his voice. Officer H. J. Wright and Mooney ran the two men into a saloon at 121 E’llis street and there captured them. THE MIND OF K WOMAN Central Subject of Inquiry at Mrs. Worthington’s Trial. The Defendant Cross-Examined and Subtle Medical Oplnlons Glven. Mrs. Louise A. Worthington, the de- fendant in the murder trial at present pending in Judge Belcher’s court, was cross-examined at length yesterday by the prosecution. She persisted that after going down to ‘Washington-street wharf to meet her husband everything was practically a blank to her until she awoke to find her- self in the station-house on the charge of murdering Henry Baddeley. She said she had seen Baddeley’s face loom before her *‘as big as a house” and that all in the interval thereafter was lost in oblivion. The pale defendant denied absolutely that she had ever been to Baddeley’s house or had met him at her own home on Bat- tery street, except on one occasion. To- day the prosecution may endeavor to im- peach her testimony on several minor particulars, but as a rule she was con- sistent in qualifying her denials with such expressions as “‘As far as I know,” “Not that I remember,” and the like. A new witness was heard in the person of James McDonald, who testified that he saw Mrs. Louise Worthington just previous to the tragedy smig ring toward its scene as if she weredrunk. She was accompanied by two children. The medical testimony was also strongly in favor of the defendant. Dr. Jerome A. Anderson displayed a conscientious regard for the science of the question, and un- hesitatingly pronounced the defendant insane at thétime of the shooting. He based his conclusion on the whole circum- stances of the case. the days of riot, death and desolation in the Ceeur d’Alenes. ‘“We are on the top of a volcano in-the Cceur d’Alene country,” said Mr. Crawl, in answer to a question in relation to the mining industry of Idaho. ‘“The only thing that keegs the volcano from blazing forth in fire and smoke and death is the hope that 1896 will bring with it a change in the administration of the country’s financial affairs. It is a matter of fact that some of the silver-producing mines in Idaho have been operated at a dead loss of money during the last year simply to keep good miners in the country and maintain a peaceful condition of Jife. The union miners are not unreasonable, as is attested by the recent action of Governor William LFtConnell. The Governor has stated by proclamation that fair wages must be paid—that is really the substance of his expression. If living wages cannot be paid, then it is understood that no mining shall be done at all. “There are two sides to this question of unionism and non-unionism,”’ continued Mr. Crawl. “Many people, who know nothing of the conditions, imagine that whenever a mine superintendent or owner employs non-union miners he is simply skinning them alive for his own profit. This idea is wrong. There are min owners and superintendents who are posi- tively humane. They give out work at re- duced wages for weeks and months simply to keep the ball rolling, as it were, and at actual daily loss to the owners. When it comes to a case of doing a cold-blooded business of mining for profit, these same superinterdents will employ union men at union rates, and the non-union men who were given a chance to live at the expense of the company will be forced to join the union miners or quit the country. But, unfortunately, thisis a fact of which the union agitators take no notice. So far as I am concerned there are always two sides to every Txestjon. Iam with the Miners’ Union all the time, no matter in what State or Territory I may find myself; but my allegiance to my faith doesnot prevent me from seeing an recolgnizlng the truth. There are too many would-be walking dele- fi;tehs in the mining regions of Northern aho.” - The London Fashion in Dogs. Has any one noticed the change in the fashion of London dogs? For, of course, now that the season is within measureable distance, the leading dog has to show him- self and be provided for. Last year he was still the Irish terrier, who had made his mark already some years before, and kept a place in ‘the running. Now he is Dr. George Franklin Shield was ex- amined at great length, and corroborated the views of his brother physician. Assist- ant District Attorney Peixotto, assisted by his associate attorney, Ed Sweeney, en- caged him in subtle arguments as to fl\'pmhetical cases and the differentiation of insanity, but the doctor was clear that the circumstances of the case, taken as a whole, argued an undoubted state of temporary insanity on the part of the defendant. The trial will be continued to-day. NATIONAL GUARD VETERANS. Their Annual Election of Ofiicers Fol- lowed by a Sumptuous Banquet.

A SATISFACTORY MEETING. If Cloth Can Be Manufactured Here Sultable for Uniforms it Will Be Used. The Police Commissioners will encour- age and support local industries whenever they are worthy of such encouragement and support. Last night the communication sent to them by the Manufacturers’ and Produc- ers' Association, which has been published in the CarL, was considered by them at their regular meeting. President Tobin, Commissioner Alvord and Chief Crowley were present. 8. H. Lacy was present in behalf of the Manufacturers’ Association. He said the association had received a communication from one of its members to the effect that the police force was to be supplied with new uniforms, and that it had been ordered that all the uniforms should be of French 6X Beaver. The members asked the as- sistance of the association to get the Com- missioners to support a local industry by having the uniforms made of cloth manu- factured in this City. Hence the commu- nication from the association to the board. “The member referred i0,”’ continued Mr. Lacy, “is the Golden Gate Wool Manu- facturing Company, 535 Market street. ‘With your permission I shall read a letter which the association received to-day from the company.” . The letter is as follows: We have received a sample of cloth, said tobe French beaver, about thirty-two-ounce weight, such as is used for uniforms by the policemen of this City and which' costs about $7 50 per yard. We desire to say that at our woolen- mills, situated in this City, where we employ about 150 men, we have the facilities for making a cloth such as the above-mentioned sample, suitable for policemen’s uniforms, which we will guarantee in quality and ser- viceable value to be equal to the sample shown us and which we can sufply at about $5 50 per yarg, or $2 per yard less than the foreign 0ods. 5 We have guite recently completed a contract with the United States’ Government for over £40,000 worth of cloth for uniforms, and our looms to-day are busy making cloth of the same kind for the United States Government. As ell said cloth is required to stand a severe and critical examination before acceptance, we feel warranted in our claim that we can supply & cloth which will be in every way sat- és_blctory for the uniforms of policemen of this ity. i sympathy with the objects of your asso- ciation, and desiring to prove that it is unnec- essary to go outside of the State of California for many articles that are hr%ely imported, we propose to make up & roll of cloth, which we can let you have not later than June 10, which we would be pleased to have your association submit to the Police Commissioners of this City for examination and test. If found satisfac- tory we will agree to supply itin any quan- tity, at a price considerably less than can be bought outside of this State. President Tobin said it was a mistake to assume that new uniforms had been ordered for the police force. The only new uniforms were for the captains, ser- geants, corporals and officers on office duty. A few of the men whose uniforms were old and shabby and not of the regu- lation color and quality had also ordered new uniforms, but that wasall. Coming to the question of the cloth the president said if the local manufacturers could make a cloth as serviceable as the French beaver the board would do all in its power to sup- port the industry. Commissioner Alvord - concurred, but upon the distinct understanding: that the goods must be of the finest quality and not shoddy. The interests of the men had also to be protected and it wounld not do to have them buying a new uniform every few months. Chief Crowley referred to the unfortunate experience the degur!ment had with the cloth manufactured at the Mission Woolen -Mills. It wasfound that a suit of French beaver costing $60 or $70 would outlast four suits made of the Mission Woolen Mills cloth, each of which cost $50. The princi- pal fault was in the dyeing. During rain the colors of the Mission cloth ran in white streaks and the cloth itself shrank. It would not do to have a similar experi- ence. Mr. Lacy said the Golden Gate Company was willing to donate enough cloth to make two suits as a test, and if not found satisfactory that would end the matter. After furtber discussion the Commis- sioners suggested that the Golden Gate Company should manufacturea bolt of the cloth, and if it was of the necessary qualit; and durability they would patronize it. It was expected that ere long the force would be increased, and the new men would re- quire uniforms. By that time the cloth could be tested. The success or failure of the experiment lay with the manufactur- ers themselyes. Mr. Lacy thanked the'Commissioners for the courteous reception accorded him and the satisfactory result of the discus- sion. GULLED THE GUARDIAN, Two Loving Stockon Hearts Which Will Beat Hereafter as One. Miss Gloconda Fugazzl Made Mrs. Braghetta by a Minister on the High Seas. The old adage that “Love laughs at locksmiths” and heartless guardians, law- yers and other legal obstructions in the path of Cupid’s wiles and smiles was again exemplified yesterday morning when two loving hearts from Stockton were made to beat as one on the waves of old ocean, far out on the billows beneath the frowning cliffs of the Farallones. Henry Braghetta, a bright young man who attends to the outside work of Thomp- son’s paintstore, woed and won Gioconda Fuga: Henry is very fair to look upon. He is of medium size, dark, well though slightly built, and the olive complexion of his skin is set off by an incipient black mustache. His bride is not yet 18 years old. Bhe has the blue eyesof Italy, but her hair is of the golden type of England, and ‘it falls in flaxen ‘masses about her shell-like ears and swanlike neck. The bride has s cruel guardian, by name Monaco and by profession a photographer. She is an orphan, and the nloresai&r Furd. ian has control of an_estate amounting to several thousand dollars. It waswhispered in_Stockton that Guardian Monaco had laid siege to the heart of his fair youn ward, but with iil success. The sweet wars loved yoang Henry, and she determirned to wed him or die. All her relatives and the kinsmen.of Braghetta looked upon the | union of the two young hearts with favor. But the fuu‘dun said no to the snit of the i’onng clerk, and thingslooked darkindeed r the pair. Then' the ipnng clerk resolved to take matters into his own hands. He consulted William Gibson, Stockton’s well-known attorney. Braghetta told the attorney that. the girl was under age by several months | and the attorney told him that the best thing_he could do was to come to San Francisco and hire a tug and go out on the bounding billows. He agreed to accom- pany the loving couple to San Francisco and engage the tug. The arzived here op Tucsday night A and Attorney Gibson tried to hire the tug Ida W forthwith. The owners of the boat said that they could not accommodate him. The attorney is the last man in the world to be stuck by trifles. Heis a friend of Governor Budd and a little thing like hiring a tug by no means disconcerted him. He got another tug, and before 11 o’clock yesterday morning the bridal arty was out on the bosom of the heav- ing deep. Attorney Gibson was not satis- fied with_the capfain’s sanctification of the nuptials, so he took a minister along. The bride turned pale when the heads were passed, but the groom and the -| minister were as determined as two rocks. The tug went out twelve miles from the shore and the fair Gioconda was helped up_to the pilot-house. She de- murred mightily, for a heavy swell was rolling and the girl wanted to get back to the shore. All the same the pretty orphan was very desirous of becoming Mrs. Braghetta, and a little thing like sea- sickness could not change her mind by a feather's weight. And so they were married, the minister tying the knot fast and strong. Miss Fugazzi left her home at Stockton on Tu morning in response to a mes- sage from her ardent swain, written in English. The lady with whom she was living asked her the contents of the letter, and the clever little girl told her that her dressmaker wanted her to try a new gown. She left the establishment and joined her lover, and the twain took the 12:10 train for San Francisco. Attorney Gibson went back to Stockton last evening. When taxed about his com- licity in the runaway match he properly genie the allegation. He said that he knew {_‘ne groom, but only knew the bride by sight. He understood, he said, that Guardian Monaco had been very severe in his deal- ings with the young lady, and that she was not very much to blame. 2 “I was talking to Mr. Braghetta this morning,” said the attorney, “and he told me that the gir] was quite comfortably fixed, but that she was afraid of her guardian. Why this is, I don’t know. The guardian, from ‘what Mr. Braghetta said, was oj;posed to her marrying any one, and as I understand it, the only ob- jeciion will be voiced by Mr. Monaco.” The happy young pair left for Stockton on the 6 o’clock train last night. RECRUITING THE BALLET, Forty . Maidens Who Would Wear Tinsel Mustered on a Midday Stage. Palnstaking and Amblitlous Girls Who Seek Glory Before the Footlights. A theater in the cold, realistic light of day, the glint through the chinks furnish- ing the realism and the yellow gasjets the rest, is a harmonious setting for a raw ballet-girl in her street clothes minus the frocks. When the genuine article, who has floated and pirouetted and balanced since infancy, is commonplace without the gauze und glitter of the regulation costume, how much more disenchanting is the green uniformed aspirant to the rose crown of the premier danseuse, the dia- mond absorber of young blooddom. ‘vhe California Theater stage, morning and afternoon, is the parade ground of the recruits for the “Humpty Dumpty” ballet. Muny were called to form that band of grace and beauty and forty were chosen—iorty of all ages from 16 to 22, and forty as illustrious and painstaking young females as the City can produce. There may not be much honor or glory in being a ballet-girl, but those bounding, swinging, posing neophytes think there is, and that 1s the right spirit after all. ' They feel that they have been honored in having been selécted to dance before a critical but a reciative public, and they are going to do eir level best. In the dim- religious light of the Cali- fornia stage yesterday afternoon the chosen arty looked well. The majority of them gere were pretty, and not a few with proper grooming might be classed among the beautiful. And they were not a bit “tough,” no matter what quarter of the City they came from or what necessities had forced the acceptanceof legual labor upon them. They were not, however, of that shrinking, timid class which fingers its tattered shawl and blushes when ad- dressed by a sympathetic stranger. On the contrary, the i’onng ladies were per- fectly self-possesed, and individuslly and in groups rehearsed their steps, and eés- sayed the very apex of high kicking with- out any consideration of ‘the limited and scattered audience. The ambition of a Fanny Elsler and a Taglioni combined burned in the hearts of these young Californians as they were Saustored by, thair indefatigable trainer, Miss Nellie Callan. Young in years, but with a broad experience in the dazzling combination of amazon marches and glit- tering massing ot graceful beauty and all the glamorof the spangled fairies, she was_patient but exacting, stern but re- lenting, to those who really wanted to do the figure all right, but whose legs and arms were for the time mutinous. Miss Nellie’s costume was €ool, as became the weather. Her sandals were strictly pro- fessional,her other things light by compar- ison with the fashion plates of midday attire. But she was a general in that oose-step gan of the ballet, and the girls Enew it and obeyed her. 5 A young man played thanpmno. He was a good player and Kept perfect time. The neophytesevidently regarded him assome- thing more than human. They clustered about that happy young man, and had pro- riety permitted, not afew of them would Enve taken the liberty of stroking his plas- tered hair. 3 The ambition to kick mgh was strongly illustrated in the efforts of those recruits. ‘While the main body were doing the skip and waltz and tableaux as set down in the regulations under the generalship of Miss Cailan, detached beauties were strainin, their anatomy to beat all the records, an§ were coming ‘‘koplunk’ in that most try- ing exercise, the split, and not a few of them looked after this feat as if they wished they had not done it. Foot and foot together, two pretty little irls tried to dislocate two nicely turned fimhs. One audacious dame turned a handspring, and half a dozen imitators followed her. Another tried -the coach- wheel and brought a following to her side of the stage. But this did not interfere with business, for the skipping and group- ing went on, and the clear voice of General Callan rang out: “Now, girls—easy there—mind your tableaux—oh, shocking—that won’t do— once again,” and the virtuoso at the piano played on mechanically with the air of one to whom the ballet was a sodden fruit and who took no stock in female beauty, with or without uniform. g Yesterday was the fourth. rehearsal and the girls did “well.

A Reminiscence of Webster. It was a great day for Captain Isaac Bas- sett, the veteran assistant doorkeeper of the Senate. Sixty-three years -ago, on the 15th of December, 1831, he was appointed a page by Daniel Webster. To him, there- fore, the services on that anniversary had more than usual interest, During the day {be recalled some incidents of the great orator and statesman, but as he is writing a book he is very chary of his stories. Captain E. T. Matthews, the efficient clerk of the Naval Committee and Senator McPherson’s private secretary, also re- members Webster. He heard the oration which Webster delivered at the laying of the cornerstone of the capitol extension, and he recollects also hearing Webste speak one night from the steps of the lat- ter’s residence on Louisiana avenue, near the present police court. “I was but a boy then,” he said, “but I used to wander info the old Senate cham- ber and listen to the debates. I remember Clay and.Calhoun and Benton and the other great men of that day. The absolute silence of the Senate chamber always im- pressed me. Order was rigidly enforced all the time.”—Washington Post. ——————— During the middle ages the controversial spirit was so high among scholars that students under them carried arms and fought on meeting each other..
