SUMMERHAYES, The Sentence Imposed on the Derelict Grand Juror. { make any reference to IT CAME AS A SURPRISE, | in His Remarks Concern- ing the Offense. | Judge Morrow Extremely Severef | patent ACTION PROBABLE. FURTHER Criminal Proceedings on the Part of the Grand Jury Strongly Recommended. tion refer to the matter of the charge pending before the Grand Jury. He further testified he had made no mention of the large amount of money floating about in connection with the Freeman-Westinghouse case, nor did he the small pay of the grand jurors as compared with the money the counsel in the case was getting. Witn, explained that with the knowl- edge of Assistant District Attorney Schies- inger he had simply borrowed from At- torney Church a copy of some of the testimony ziven in the Freeman-Westing- house patent case, and that on meeting | Mr. Church on Tuesday night he borrowed additional devositions relating to the se, and then conversed for three hours with him, but without in any way referri body of which he was a member. District Attorney Foote said he did not desire to arzue the matter, and was willing to submit on the testimony. to the case pending before the | | occasion. ters which have been brought before the Grand Jury.” He then briefly reviewed the testimony of Freeman and Church and said it con- firmed the statements made in the affidavit. He continued : *‘The respondent then went on the stand and testified as to what occurred on this He has controverted or denied some portions of the testimony. With re- | spect to such portions of that affidavit: as | charge, ortend to charge, corrupt conduct, it probably involves offenses against the laws of the United States. If so, these matters must be tried elsewhere and by other methods of procedure than that which is now involved in this proceeding for contempt. If the tendency of the respondent’s conversation with Mr. Free- man was for the purpose of opening up negotiations leading to bribery and cor- ruption, that is a matter that should be investigated by the Grand Jury and prop- erly presented to the court. The court has only to deal now with the question of con- tempt.” After quoting from the Revised Statutes relative to what constitutes a contempt, he said: *‘If jurors may leave the jury-room and Ex-Judge Ferral then stated that there | Obtain evidence elsewhere; 1f the jury can was considerable conflict between the tes- | be dismissed from a court or jury-room | timony given, and he would like to get | 8nd the individual rembers be permitted something before the court regarding the | 0 interview witnesses outside of the jury- | standing of the witnesses on the other | T0Om, the courts may as well close their “The sentence of the court is that the | accused be imprisoned in the County Jail of San Francisco for six months.” These were the ominous words uttered by ted States District Judge Morrow vesterday afternoon at the conclusion of the hearing of the contempt proceedings | e. Continuing he said: t that we postpone the examination so as to enable us to get testi- mony as to the reputation of the witnesses on the other side for truth ana veracity. 1 will endeavor to show that they are not worthy of belief. This is of vital impor- tance to the accused. I haveheard reports “I would sug SUMMERHAYES' AND HIS ATTORNEY, | { | table citizen. doors and jurors return to their places, and let the administration of justice fall into the hands of those who will deal in it as an article of merchandise. “‘The court appreciates the unfortunate position of the respondent in this case, as stated by his counsel. He comes here, undoubtedly, with the credit of a repu- He has borne heretofore, so far as I know, a good reputation. But he has certainly disobeyed the order of the court. He ought to have thought of his good reputation when confronted with the situation presented by the testimony. He ought not to have approached these men. He ought not to have allowed himself to come in contact with them, or discuss the proceedings in the jury-room. “While I am not now considerin® any- thing further than the mere fact of the respondent having disobeyed the order of the court, still their clings about it the atmosphere of wrong. There is, [ am afraid, something more than the mere dis: obedience of the order of the court. It is ROBERT FERRAL. against Grand Juror H. J. Summrehayes. On the request of the prisoner the sen- tence was so modified as to permit him to | enjoy the hospitality of the Whelan. The charge against Summerhayes was that of contempt of court in having vio- lated the injunction of the court relative to maintaining secret everything con- nected with the work of the Federal Grand Jury. It was asserted in the affidavit filed by Walter K. Freeman that Summerhayes, who was a member of the Grand Jury, had spoken to him and to his attorney, J. B. Church, with reference to the pending | criminal charges against Attorney H. S. Mackaye, Warren P. Freeman and Wallace | E. Freeman, and had broadly intimated that his influence could be bought and in- | dictments thus secured against the three | men named. When the case was called this morning | ex-Judge Robert Ferral was present to rep- | resent the accused grand juror, and the prosecution on behalf of the Government was conducted by District Attorney Foote, assisted by Bert Schlesinger. Ex-Judge Ferral at once addressed the court, saying “I presume it would be a better proceed- ing for Mr. Summerhayes to make a coun- ter-affidavit, but we are satisfied to ex- amine the witnesses who make the charges and then hear the accused in his own be- half.” Judge Morrow stated this was out of the usual order, but, if counsel on both sides were satisfied, he would make no objec- tion to proceeding in this way. Ex-Judge Ferral waived all objections to this course, and Walter K. Freeman was called to the stand and testified in substance to the facts as outlined in his atfidavit, whick ap- peared in yesterday's Carr. He was fol- lowed by Attorney Church in corrober- ation. Church also testified that he had spoken of the matter to Commissioner Heacock on the morning following the interview. He then offered an apology to the court for having talked of Grand Jury matters with Summerhayes, and explained that he did so because he was under the impres- | sion at first that Summerhayes had been | delegated by the Grand Jury to Jook inw‘ the electrical phase of the case. He then | went on to state that another reason that prompted him to listen to Summerhayes was that happenings of a very peculiar nature have occurred in connection with the Freeman-Westinghouse case ever since Lis arrival, and that he was tonsequently on his guard. He then attempted to re- cite some of them, but was interrupted by ex-Judge Ferral, who claimed the matter was not pertinent to the issue, and his objection was sustained by Judge Morrow, who saia the apology could be made to him later. Summerhayes was then called to the stand by ex-Judge Ferral. He testified that on Tuseday last he met Walter K. Freeman at the Palace Hotel, but did not ask to be introduced to him. In the con- versation which ensued he did not state Ala- | meda Sheriff instead of that of Sheriff | | 5 believe can show Ww. though I do not say positively that I can; but I would like to be permitted to try. know I can produce witnesses as to the good character of Mr. Summerhayes.” Judge Morrow refused to continue the matter. Ex-Judge Ferral then argued the matter and endeavored to show the absurdi the charge by pointing out the previous good character of the accused and the pub- lic place in which the alleged bribery over- | tures took place. He intimated that the motive for the proceedings might be found in a desire on the part of Walter K. Free- man to have Summerhayes excluded from | the hearing of the charges against Mack- aye and the two Freemans alleged to be implicated with him. This, he added, was a good way to accomplish that object. He admitted that his client deserved a reprimand for speaking to the gentlemen on the other side, and considered that that was as far as .the court should go in the matter of censure. District Attorney Foote replied by stat- ing that the intent of the accused to be corrupt and get a bribe was not under con- sideration. The matter before the court, he said, was as to the duty of Summer- hayes as a grand juror. His action may { simply have been an indiscretion. He then concluded his remarks as follows: “But if the court is satisfied that Mr. Summerhayes disobeyed the order of the | court as to maintaining inviolate the se- crets of the Grand Jury—if he even men- tioned this case as pending before the Grand Jury, he is in contempt. He did disobey the order of the court, and that is all that is necessary under the vending charge. "It is not a question of corrup- tion.” There were a few more words by ex- Judge Ferral in defense of his client, in which he claimed that inasmuch as both Mr. Freeman and Mr. Church knew the matter was pending before the Grand Jury could not be justly construed as a con- tempt. Then with a deliberation and solemnity that foreshadowed what was to come | Judge Morrow reviewed the organization of the present jury, the accused’s connec- tion therewith, the oath he took to be uninfluenced by anything except the merits of all matters submitted to his con- sideration as a member of the Grand Jury, and the strict injunction of secrecy im- posed by the court on all the grand jurors before they entered on the discharge of their duties. “It‘is not,” he sigpificantly added, “‘the province of a grand juror to investigate witnesses outside of the jury- room.” He next referred to the affidavit filed by Walter K. Freeman, and then read it in full. After its conclusion his first words cleared away all doubt as to how he viewed the matter, and speculation was then busy only with how severe the pen- alty would be. He said: “That affidavit tends to show not only that Mr. Summerhayes has been guiity of he was a member of the Grand Jury, and did not at any time during the conversa- contempt of court, in corruptly misbehav- ing as a juror, but also in discussing mat- 1l v of | the mention of it by Mr. Summerhayes | | | and rumors regarding the people who have { said by counsel that all there is to it was téstified against Mr. Summerbayes, and 1| indiscretion. And it has been character- at I have stated, | ized as though it was a matter of possible thoughtlessness, That is not the case The case cannot be disposed of in that way. Itis a serious matter. It must be considered that there was some reason for this juror having a conversation with Freeman and Church covering the long time stated in the testimony. 1t cannot be disposed of as a passing conversation. “Iam bound to say that, from all the statements, I do not think respondent’s story is consistent with all the circum- stances of the case, even as admitted by himself. The respondent’s own statement of the situation is not sufficient to account for the interview or the color he gives to it. I think it is a serious otfense. I think itis one of the gravest offenses that has been committed in this district against the ad- ministration of the law. The respondent must be punished and punished severely.” Then came the sentence. The pronouncement of the sentence sent a chilling thrill through every one present, for no one had anticipated a punishment so severe. It was generally thought thata fine would be imposed and presumably a short term of imprisonment with the alternative of an additional fine, but im- prisonment without alternative was a per- ceptible shock to all in court. The ac- cused was like one stricken with sudden paralysis and his color went and came for afew seconds and then he became per- fectly pallid. His counsel was scarcely less affected and it was some little time before he recovered sufficiently to think of taking steps to save his client from the im- pending disgrace of being locked up in jail. He finally addressed Judge Morrow, stating he was ignorant of the procedure in matters of this kind, and asked what steps he could take toward securing an ap- peal and a stay of the sentence. He was informed that the matter was not bailable, and that habeas corpus pro- ceedings were the only process by which the matter could be brought up before an- other tribunal. Judge Morrow then re- ferred counsel for Summerhayes to the similar case of David 8. Terry. Summerhayes was taken across the bay late in the afternoon. He was asked if he desired to make any statement in refer- ence. to the matter, but replied he had nothing to say. No steps were taken by ex-Judge Ferral yesterday to secure a writ of habeas corpus, and it is the general opinion of those best posted on the subject that when he comes to look up the matter he will not further endeavor to interfere in the case. In his address prefacing the sentencing of Summerhayes, Judge Morrow made such broad expressions of belief in corrupt intent on the part of the accused that it is not likely the criminal feature of the affair will be ignored by the Grand Jury. In fact, Judge Morrow’s remarks came as near being instructions to that body to | take the matter up as they could be while hearing the separate matter of contempt. Summerhayes was engaged in the busi- ness of broker and commission merchant when not serving as a juror. He lives at 23 Baker street, and has always borne a good reputation. It is reported that papers are being made out charging Wallace E. Freeman with giving false testimony in the proceedings of the case of the Rubber Company before Commissioner Heacock. | The Federal Grand Jury will be asked to investigate the charge. BEFORE THE GRAND JURY. Moore’s Startling Testimony in the Mackaye-Freeman Matter. There was another hearing of the charges of perjury, subornation of perjury, bribery and criminal conspiracy against attorney H. S. Mackaye, Warren P, Freeman and | ‘Wallace E. Freeman before the Federal | Grand Jury yesterday afternoon, Frankie- Ames was ‘the first witness called. She testified that several weeks ago Wallace 1. Freeman called on her at 116 Eddy street, where she is stopping with friends, and while making love to her remarked: *Well, darling, I will soon be | able to go East and I will take you with | me. I cannot getaway, however, till I get | through wich a dirty piece of work I am | now doing. I have got to give testimony against my brother, but there is big money | in it for me. I hate todo it, but he’s got no stuff and the other side have, and I'm oing to stand in with the people who have the cash.” Wallace E. was also a witness. He tes- tified that the “fake” rubber company was | simply used in order to induce Alexander | H. and Warren L., his two brothers, to tell the truth regarding the patent claimed by their brother, Walter K. Freeman. He | further stated that while here he had sim- | ply testified to the truth in the matter, which was against the claim of his brother and in favor of the Westinghouse Com- | pany. He denied that, o faras his knowl- | edge went, any of the crimes charged had been committed by the persons accused. The testimony thus far given has been of | so contradictory a character throughout | that it is probable the Grand Jury may | throw the whole affair out of court, owing | to the probable difficulties in the way of | securing a conviction. MARVIN IN A DILEMMA. He Is Threatened With Arrest What- ever Course He Pursues. Owing to the contempt proceedings be- fore Judge Morrow and the examination in progress before the Grand Jury there was buta brief session of the Freeman-West- | inghouse patent-interference case before Commissioner Heacock yesterday. But brief as it was it was not devoid of the usual sensation. Marvin L. Freeman was called as a w: ness on behalf of the Westinghouse Elec- | tric Manufacturing Company. He is a | brother of Walter K. Freeman, the plaint- iff in the case, and was brought out here by the Westinghouse's attorney to testify in behalf of the defendant, and thereby contradict the testimony given previously by him in Chicago, and which was in fa- vor of his brother. But since his arrival Marvin has appar- ently had a change of heart, for he now declar hat his first testimony is correct and that he will not change it. | When he was told to give his testimony | he declined outright to answer any ques- | tions on the ground that he was too wor- ried in mind to do so properly, and asked | for a ®spite in order to consult with his attorney. In an interview he stated he was ina most serious_dilemma. He had been | threatened with arrest on the charge of | perjury, he said, if he testified to what he claimed was the truth, and with arrest for | contempt of court if he refused to testify, | which was the course he preferred to pursue, The case will be on again this morning, when Marvin’s peculiar dilemma will | probably be ended, with what results it is | impossible to foretell. | | | | AN ACTIVE GRAND JURY, The City and County Hospital Management Receives © Attention. KING AND HIS MILK CONTRACT' Abuse of Search Warrants Issued From the Police Courts—Ash- worth'’s Case Assigned. The Grand Jury held a regnlar session vesterdsy afternoon. Early in the day District Attorney Barnes was called by wire to Sacramento, and, therefore, As- the jury. The foreman, Oliver Eldridge, was called away on important business immediately after the session opened. The communigation presented by Police Judge Charles A. Low, wherein he pre- ferred charges of criminal libel against two attorneys, was briefly considered, and the witnesses were excused with instruc- tions to be present next Monday. Richard Gibson and three witnesses were heard in reference to the seizure of some property at the Baldwin House, on Ellis street, last February. Thesearch warrant, under which the property was taken and transferred to some one to whom it did not belong, was issued in Police Judge Camp- bell’s court. some one committed perjury, and that is the reason why the Grand Jury has called | upon Judge Campbell and the clerk of the court, Thomas O'Brien, to produce the wholé record of the proceeding The jury is showing an inclination to vestigate the search-warrant system as practiced in the Police Courts. Informa- tion has been lodged to the effect that it is common practice for officers holding search warrants to determine disputed questions regarding the ownership of effects seized and dispose of the property without due process of law. The Property Clerk of the Police De- | partment was one of the witnesses called yesterday. He produced books for inspec- | tion. 2 | A year or so since a man who is well | known about town, but whose name was | not spoken to the reporters, obtained $500 frequently employ.

ALLEN'S BLUNDER. | Asked, With His Bondsmen, to Rec- tify a Shortage Caused by His Carelessness. After waiting nearly ten vears for ex- United States Pension Agent Truman H. 20 which the United States Government claims is due from the retired official, the National authorities, through United States Attorney Foote, have begun suit against Mr. Allen and his bondsmen for that amount. The action grows out of a rather peculiar omission on the partof the Pension Agent, by which an ex-so!dier benefited dishon- estly to the extent of the sum for which suit is brought. | On December 10, 1836, Henry P.

He made his application and in due time Allen sent him a check which, un- happily for his peace of mina. was blank, except for the signature, which made it a document worth any amount for which it might be drawn. Metcalf was of a thrifty and not over- crupulous turn of mind, for instead of re- turning it for completion, or filling it out in the sum of $18, his just due, he put in the figures $128 alled at the cashier’s office and was rewarded by receiving that amount in coin of the realm. Then he disappeared. Soon a large and apparently unex- plainable shortage was discovered in the pension funds, and wide alarm spread itself through the office. Accounts were carefully scanned, and it was only after a careful checking of dues and payments that the fact that Metcalf had received over seventy times what was justly his own was discovered. Then explanations were in order and the blame was laid at Mr Allen’s door, the error being clearly his own. The only ex- cuse he could give was that he had inad- vertantly sent Metea!f a blank check. Of course, this exonorated Mr. Allen from any suspicion of fraud, but it did not re- turn the good Government money paid out, and Mr. Allen was asked to recti | mistake to the extent of $126: 9 asked for time, and, with its usual leniency, the Government granted his request and waited patiently. The years rolled by and the coin was not forthcoming. Recently the fact that the ex-agent's bondsmen were still liable, not | having been released, dawned upon the authorities and the suit is_the result. With Mr. Truman, John W. Coleman, | George W. Grayson, John P. Irish, Henry Haves, Duncan Cameron, James T. Glenn and James J. White are named as defend- ants. Each of these went on his bond for $50.000, individually and collectively. | In addition to the principal, interest from December 22, 1836, to date of case, to- gether with costs of suit, is asked.
