8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1895. BRIBES OR INTIIDATION. They Come Up in a New Phase in the Famous Freeman Case. A RECALCITRANT WITNESS. Marvin L. Freeman Refuses to An-| swer Questions Asked by At- | torney Mackaye. There was no break yesterday in the | sensation-making record of the Freeman-] Westingh United States Commissioner Heacock. The taking of the deposition of Marvin L. Freeman on behalf of the defendant wasset for 11 A. M. Prompt t that hour the witness, all the counsel in the case and the plaintiff were present.

Freeman was also broaght from Riverside on the same un- derstanding, but he, too, will refuse to be- come a witness for the defense. No steps were taken yesterday before any of the Federal tribunals in this City in the matter of securing a writ of habeas corpus on behalf of I. J.

Opinion of an Eastern Legal Repre~ sentative of the Westinghouse Company. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 9.—Paul D. Cravath, of the firm of Cravath & Hous- ton, solicitors for the Westinghouse Com- pany 1 this City, said to-day with refer- ence to the Freeman-Westinghouse pro- ceedings in progress in San Francisco: “Mr. Mackaye's mission in San Francisco is to attend the taking of testimony before a United States Commissioner relative toa 1g proceeding in the Patent Office ng an application for a patent by - K. Freeman, who is now supposed ng in the interest of the Fort Electric Company. It was our f that perjured evidence had been n in support of the application, and it part of Mr. Mackaye’s duty to show | up this perjury and he has apparently succeeded in doing so. “TheWestinghouse Company basauthor- zed no improper measures to influence | witnesses, and is coufident that no such measures have been taken by its repre- sentatives. We lelieve the charges which have been made before tne San Francisco Grand Jury and elsewhere by Walter K. Freeman and his associates were made for the purpose of diverting attention from the perjured testimony which they are trying to support.” Charles A. Terry, patent lawyer of the Westinghouse Electric Company, was seen to-a egard the case of Walter K. ye, now before the California Grand Jury. Mr. Terry pre- ferred not to speak uvon the subject and refgrred to Paul D. Cravath of the firm of Cravath & Houston, solicitors for the Westinghouse Ccmpany in this city. - an claimed priority in certain with which the Westinghouse sought to interfere and produced ipported his claims in A fourth Freeman, however, refusea to side with his brothers, and Mackaye, representing the Westing- house patent department, went to the Pacific Coast to prove that the testimony of the other Freemans was perjured. Walter K. Freeman at once turned the tables by accusing Mackaye of attempting to bribe witne: and the case has as- sumed melodramatic interest in California. |SEWERAGE FOR_CITIES.

'he question of sewage,” said Professor Davidson, “is and ever will be a question of humanity, and the intellizent minds of all cities are moving for a humane and in- telligent solution of it. I recall no city so peculiarly situated as San Francisco for high possibilities in the application of the principle of sanitation, yet I fail to recall but one other where the sewe is of such a deplorably low condition, and that is the City of Mexico. San Francisco, placed upon a peninsula with ocean water | on three sides, with strong summer winds from the sea to replace the foul airs of the City, with high tides of a peculiarly fa , is especially adapted for what it assuredly’ has not, an admirable sewage ystem. “The present so-called system is tide- RIGEING THE JURY MASTS, Mrs. Watts’ Story of the Awful Voyage of the Sharp- ) shooter. HOW THE SPARS WENT AWAY “The Men All Did Their Duty Faith- fully and Well” Is Her Simple Verdict. With her spars gone, her makeshift yards hanging dejectedly to the jury-masts | that stand feebly in their stepping, the bark Sharpshooter tells a melancholy tale | of the sea. It is calm and stormle around her now as she swings at anchor in | harbor, but through the fragment of shroud and swifter reaching from the wreck of the rail to the broken mastheads aloft there sounds seemingly still the shrieks of the tempest that fell heavily against the all but overwhelmed vessel—ghost echoes | of the gale that died 1itself around the liv- | ing fabric it could not destroy. Irom the | held on to some gear and the waves threw him back on deck. “Then the main topmast, main topgal- lant mast, the upper topsail yard and top- gallant yard went. The quick rolls of the vessel just jerked those spars right out of the bark. The lower topsail yard came down on deck and my husband secured it before it, too, went overboard. The good main yard hung in its place. Then the mizzen topmast jumped clean out of its place and the light stick seemed to float awayin the gale. All thistime the poor little Sharpshooter was tossing and pitch- ing on the great waves like a feather. It was really the laboring of the vessel, we not daring to make enough sail to keep her steady, that shook the spars off her, *‘She is old and slow, her bottom is very foul, and she is hard to bandle at best. ‘‘Then came the work of rigging jury- masts and yards in that awful storm.” An old spar was rigged out for a bowsprit and another set up for a foremast. These two were stayed firmly as possible, and the maintopsail yard thatwas lying across the deck was slung for a foreyard. That was anice job of sailor-work, but the next was better.” We—I say we because the captain si I helped with my clieerfulness—we rigged up the spanker-boom _for a single topsail yard. *This spar being too light for the work it | was to do was strengthened by splints all around it held by iron hands. Of course we had to have a spanker boom because some sail must be made on the after part of the bark. So we lowered the spanker £aff to the place of the boom and made a new geff out of the piece of -mizzen top- mast that was left us. So there we were almost as good as new. I forgot to men- tion that when the hurricane first struck us we were under the two lower topsails S, AN I W X - \ 3 LOOKING FOR’ARD ON THE D = = = = 1/ My / /i ECKE OF THE SHARPSHOOTER, SHOWING THE JURY-MAST AND BOWSPRIT.

In my judg- ment, the proper procecding would be to re- quest witness 10 read over his former deposi- tion and point out any alteration he desires to make in it, if any. S0 far as instructions to the witness are concerned, they come properly from his counsel, and are joined in by counsel for Waiter K. Freeman, Mackaye (to witness)—Do answer my last question? Witness—I do. While this stand of the witness was not you decline to altogether a surprise to counsel for defense | it took them considerably abas a display of anger by Mackaye, during which he sna »]ped out, “I don’t propose to have any bullyragging with me,’”” and a consultation between counsel it was de- cided to submit to Circuit Judee McKenna the matter as to whether ‘witness could be compelled to answer. He was conferred with and by general agreement Monday at 2 p. M. was set for hearing the matter. It is understood that Attorney Boone will file an aflidavit, sworn to by Marvin, setting forth the details of the alleged bribery and intimidation, and that counsel for defense will file counter aflidavits de- nying these charges. The hearing of this matter may also result in opening the whole subject of the alleged criminal con- spiracy now being investigated by the Fed- erai Grand Jury. The further hearing of the matter before Commissioner Heacock was continued until 10:30 A. M. Tuesday. A peculiar feature of this Jatest develop- ment is that Marvin L. Freeman was brought to this City from Sait Lake by the nd after locked and many sewers have gradients too small for the prompt movement of the sewage. The aischarge from such sewers is slow and doubtful; putrefaction takes place 1n them: the waters around the City | front are polluted; the docks are filled with abominations and during storms in winter there is continued destruction of sewers and private property. | “Op the subject of an improved sewer | system for this City, some time ago I made the proposition that a sewer be run around the water front from the vicinity of Hunters Point to the Presidio reserva- tion. The gradient of this great drain | shali be sufficient for the prompt passage of all matter admitted to it. | ‘**At the western extremity of this sewer | the sewage shall be pumped into covered | reservoirs, whose bottoms shall be at the | level of the *higher’ high tides of the bay. At the ‘stand’ of each high tide of the | twenty-four hours the reservoirs shall be opened and the contents discharged into the strong currents of the ebb tide. By this all will be necessarily carried away when the flow, rushing seaward, will | sweep the noxious matter away forever. ‘‘But as it is the so-called system of Saa | Francisco, after forty-four years of sewer engineering, is a practical failure. Millions | bave been spent in the work, but the sew- ers are tide-locked at their outlet, choked | in their windings, and their ventilation is | at the corners of the streets, from which | the poison vapors issue to spread around. | This is our sewage condition.” - Africa is to be triangulated from the | Cape of Good Hope to Cairo. Dr. Gill, as- 'tmnomer royal at Cape Town, has pre- pared the plans and Cecil Rhodes is back- | ing him up. splintered counter where the waves cleared | themselves a way, down along the decks | and up to the stem where the bowsprit | snapped close to the figurehead, the wrath- | ful waters have written the story of the | wild, mad storm’s effort, wasteful and in- effectnal. And that figurehead—a white draped woman with dismal look fixed across the sea. Some rude shipyard artist carved the dreary, changeless features for the hand- | some little bark—handsome thirty-five years ago—and bolted it to the bow. Possibly she wss comely then, in her vouth, comely as was the craft that bears her over the ocean, and wind and wave ana time have wrought hard upon her. Albeit, sheis in keeping with the ruined appearance ot the vessel, and she part and parcel of the dreariness around her. The people on board the Sharpshooter do not talk much of the awful gale that | blew down upon them in the Gulf of Cali- fornia August 11. Folks of the sea re- luctantly speak of the black days ana black nights that are theirs far out on the tempest-ridden billows. That is a portion of their lives, and it comes and is gone, and even recollection is crowded out by blacker days and nights that follow. “The storm struck us suddenly and our spars went overboard,” said quiet Mrs ‘Watts yesterday, as she sat in an easy- chair on the bark’s quarterdeck. In her arms was an infant and two | children, almost babies, stood by the wheel and gravely watched the reporters. The wheel was battered and all but die- abled, but faithful and true it had steered the wounded vessel through lingering | weeks of storm. The compass near the helm is weather-worn, but the tiny bar of sgeel never failed to mark the pole star efernally burning in the north. “I put my three babiesin a berth and did not lift them out for.days,” said the heroine of the wrecked bark. *“All the | cabin doors and hatches were tightly closed and Captain Watts, my husband, was on deck. So we four were practically cut off from all the rest and were prisoners below. We had food and water and when the gale lulled down a bit we could get something to eat. “But these long, long daysof drift on the Mexican coast; we were so helpless. The vessel wouldn’t stay~—come up in the | wind—because we could put but little sail on the weak spars. And for the same rea- | son she wouldn’t wear—pay off—except | with difficulty. “You see everything went but the main and mizzen masts, main and one main- topsail yards, and we had to set up a jury rig fore and aft.” rs. Wattsis not a Black-eyed Susan, nor any such storied daughter of the sea; she is only an Australian woman, but every inch a sailor and her ship phrases are Al at Lloyds. “The foremast broke off below the deck,” continued Mrs. Watts, “‘and slipped down. This slacked up the rigging that supported itand the ‘weight of the heavy yards above and the next roll snapped the mast off in another place above the deck. The whole gear went into the sea. At the same time the bowsprit carried away and swung overboard to leeward. Mr. Bain- bridge, the first mate, in cutting away the wreckage to keep the tloating spars hang- ing alongside from" beating holes in the iron hull, siipped overboard. What a calamity this would have been to have lost that brave and skillful seaman.

It's about the usual thing of the sea and I would much rather you would say no more about it. There is no need you know. Every- body on board did their duty faithfully and well and we came out of the storm safely.” This is the story reluctantly told by the auiet woman sitting on the quarterdeck with her little children around her. They Uritizixe ANmarn Hamr.— A German furrier has invented a method of removing the hair from a skin or hide in such a man- ner as toobtain an artificial hair-covered surface identical, for all practical purposes, with that afforded by the skin or hide be- fore the operation. This does not in any way injure the grain of the hide, which is subsequently converted into leather. This invention will lighten the artificial robe or it more suppleness, better wearing qualities, and making it absolutely waterproof. Tne hide to be operated upon is stretched tightly and the hair side satu- rated with a suitable .chemical mix- ture (containing amonz other ingre- dients glauber salt) in a heated, liquid state. When the mixture cools it solidi- fies, keeping every individual hair in its natural position. When perfectly hard- ened it is removed from the hide as a solid block, taking with it the entire hair cov- ering; in fact, depilating the hide without any injury to the grain, and leaving the hair roots vprojecting visibly from the block. The block is exposed to a high temperature for about twenty-four hours, which crystallizes its surface and exposes an increased length of hair root. The ex- vosed roots are then covered with a certain preparation (containing caoutchouc) and the artificial scalp (muslin, inen, woolen, silk, etc.) applied, after it also has been covered with the pre- paration. After time has been given for drying the block is immersed in a liquid chemical bath, by the action of which it is completely dissolved, leaving the hair | firmly attached by the roots to the arti- ficial m“f" the caoutchouc in the prepara- tion applied having in the meantime be- come fixed. After washingand drying the process is complete. By means of this process numberless skins of the hair-seal of Greenland and other high-grade skins may be tanned for leather and the hair turned into a valuable by-product, better adapted for many purposes, such as knap- sacks, etc., than the skin iteelf tanned with the hair.on. The application ‘of this invention to furs used in dressmak- ing and tailoring opens up a wide field, espécially owing to ghe greater suppleness of the transferred hair. Garrelt P.

CLOSE OF THE FESTIVAL, The Goethe-Schiller Fair Will Come to an End To-Mor- row Night. HAS BEEN A GRAND SUCCESS. Golden Gate Park Will Have a Fine Monument of the Two Ger- man Poets. The Goethe-Schiller festival at the Me- chanics’ Pavilion will close to-morrow (Monday) night, and not without the re- grets of those who have regularly at- tended the affair from the first and en- joyed a season of innocent fun and amuse- ment. The fair would have closed last evening, but the management was re- quested to keep open doors for two more evenings. There are hundreds who have not been able to attend who desire to do so, and those who have expressed their pleasure thav the occasion be prolonged. It was a glimpse of old Fatherland and they did not want the curtain to fall sooner than was absolutely necessary. Even those who have no claim upon Germany were pleased with the oppor- tunity of seeing how the Ge.mans live and enjoy life, an opportunity and an object lesson not often presented to the American public. The social success of the occasion is not to be guestioned. Those who have at- tended will vouch for that. The fimancial situation, too, has been a success, and will be greater when the lights go out and the tired participants go home. The Ger- man colony wanted to contribute a lasting monument to San Francisco, and had raised almost enough to gratify its desires. A few thousand dollars more was wanted, hence the festival. The preparation for the fair cost $12,000, and the contributions in the shape of articles for the lottery booth and articles for sale were worth at least $8000 more. Last evening the returns showed that all the expenses could more than be met. To-night and to-morrow night's receipts will be clear gain, and the Goethe-Schiller Monument Association al- most sees its way clear to the realization of its desires. The question has been asked, What has made &w festival such a success? It was the whole-heartedness with which the German-Americans threw themselves into the moverient and their untiring efforts to make every evening more brilliant than the preceding. Several hundred ladies and gentlemen have participated in the performances every evening at no small effort and expense, for many have neg- lected business, and all bave paid for their own costumes and also their expenses. President Charles Bundschu and his wife have been untiring in their efforts, Mrs. F. Hess 1s the president of the ladies’ auxiliary committée and her work has been enough to turn the head of an ordi- nary business man. Still she mastered it | and filled the difficult position of directress of the lott: To F. W. Dohrmann and his family no small credit is due for their efforts. They have worked earnestly and long. In his efforts Mr. Dohrmann has been nh\lly assisted by Miss A. Beguelin, Mrs. ) Turley, Miss N. Welsh, Miss L. Kompf, Miss H. Eggert, Miss A. Muggurelta, Miss E. Conradi, Miss B. Honigsberger, Miss A. Anderson, Miss E. Hauschildt, Miss H. Son, Miss E. Knerr and Miss Wiener. Another enthusisstic worker is Janos Gerenday an artist from Paris, who gra- titously furnished all of the bewitchin, Hungarian costumes worn by the ladies o! the popular Hungarian booth. These are but a few of those who have entered heart and soul into the festival and made it a success in order to present to San Francisco a monument of Germany's immortal bards, Goethe and Schiller. Yesterday afternoon’s matinee attracted a large attendance and the programme was varied and pleasing. In the evening the pavilion was crowded and there was not one but what went home pleased with having been present. To-morrow night the programme will be altered and all the booth performances will close at 10 o’ciock. Articles for sale will be put from sight and the booths thrown open. The floor will be cleared and the Goetbe-Schiller festival will close with a grand ball. Following is the programme for this evening: v booth. Jubel overture... .

Fentasia, George A. Knight and District Attorney Barnes Will Act as Auction. eers-in-Chief. Bociety is becoming interested in the coming auction sale of seats for the festi- val concgrts in aid of the Children’s Hos- pital, to be held at the Mechanics’ Payvilion November]l9 and 20. Thereis no charity which has more devoted friends than the Little Children’s Hospital, and it is ex- pected that the Baldwin Theater, next ‘Wednesday, will be crowded to the very doors. The sale will commence at 12:30 p. M. George A. Knight and District Attorney W. 8. Barnes will be the auctioneers-in- chief. Governor Budd, United States Sen- ator Perkins, Congressman Maguire, Mayor Sutro, Naval Officer Irish and other State and local celebrities have been invited to lend eclat to the occasion and otherwise assist. Acceptances have been received iroTxg ndnumbf‘rfof tli:)m. i e demand for boxes has already, and if the lady mnnngerese?vege";ot disposed the house could have been sold twice over. But every one in the swim wants a box, and as there isonly a lim- ited number to be disposed of the auction sale was determined upon. The fortunate ssessor of a box will be the envy of his ellows. The programme is arranged and the monster chorus of 1200 voices is familiar Wwith the score of the music. Every city in the State within a hundred miles'of the City is represented. An hour spent within the hospital is passed in the most interesting manner. Now, for instance, they have a little baby i an incubator. Itis a wee mite of a thing no bigger than the editor's famed Llue pencil, but it is just as cute as can be. That little thing wants lots of care. Two pretty white-capped nurses look after its every want, and although it ought not to have seen ’l‘hank:giving come around this year, it is here, ard here to stay evi- dently. Then there is Alice Underwood. She is somewhat of a Topsy, though fair and brown eyed, and has been in the hospital since she was two weeks’ old. Her mother lett her there, and now she is ready for adoption. Little Mabel Bryson, 4 years old, fell forty feet down a flight of steps. For four weeks she has been fed by enemas. Now she has taken a fancy to “claret, and beef extract in a colored giass suits her quite | well. Little Frankie is the star patient of the surgical ward. He was found in a hotel some two years ago. A leg was taken off on his arrival and since then he has lost toes and fingers. Evya Johnson is the name of a little waif who is a giant in comparison to the in- cubator baby. Eva confessesto 7 months’ existence on this mundane sphere and weighs a pound for every month of her | brief career. By the use of multitudinous bottles of sterilized milk, and care, the nurses hope to raise her. That is why thus monster concert is pro- jected. That is why men like Colonel Crocker are willing to appear in these concerts. That is why Governor Budd is going to lend a helping hand at the auction | on Wednesday, and why Senator Perkins is willing to spend a few hours from his | numerous duties to aid in the cause of | - | steamer William Baylies were the last two charity. Never has the Children’s Hbspital ap- ealed in vain to_the charitable public of an Francisco. For twenty years, since March, 1875, when started by a number of charitably disposed ladies, its sole object has been the care of sick and destitute women and children. Three years after it was founded six beds were placed in the building at 228 Post street, and from this small beginning it has grown. It is expected that the time which will be devoted to the auction Wednesday will result in the sale of every seatin the house. ALONG THE WATER FRONT The Bark Christine Made the Run From Newcastle in Forty-Eight Days. A British Tank Steamer Burnt While on Her Way to San Fran. cisco. The British steamer Mineral was burned at sea while on her way to San Francisco from Talara Bay witha cargo of crude petroleum for Grace & Co. The Bawnmore was on her way to Talara when she went on Point Gorda and sank. After her wreck Grace & Co. chartered the tank steamer Mineral and sent her down in place of the lost vessel. The news came in a private dispatch and simply conveyed the informa- ation that the Mineral caught fire at Zoretos, near Talara, and was totally destroyed. The loss will be a serious one to the oil trade of this port. The Mineral was built in Sunderland in 1836 and registered 1304 tons. She was 249 feet long, 30 feet broad and 16 feet 9 inches deep. She was commanded by Captain Ryder, and vessel and cargo were valued at $170,000. The Alaska Commercial Company’s steamer Dora took out the Naval Battalion | | Ramphia D.

He is suffering from heart disease and his physician ordered him to take a voyage to a warmer climate. The last of the whalers got in yesterday mornin; The bark Mermaid and the Rev. Father stragglers, and all they brought in was As a resuit the fore- mast hands will recgive $1 each as full payment for two yearsin the Arctic. On October 17 last, when two days out from Fox Island, Mate H. G. James of the Mermaid died from kidney disease and buried at sea. James wus well-known among the whalers and nearly half his life was spent in the frozen north. The Wil- liam Baylies reports that the revenue cut- | ter Bear and the bark General Fairchild were in Unalaska. The Bear was to sail | for San Francisco on the 1st inst. last night. A start was made abont 5p. u., | and it was the intention of the lieutenant commander to remain out all night and give the men a thorough drilling. All the yards and runninigenr will be sent down, and the boys will | | ave to put them back in J The British ship Simla arrived from Rio de Janeiro yesterday after a lengthy passage of eighty days. As soon as the anchor was dropped, a messenger boarded her and informed Captain Lindstrom that he was to proceed to Tacoma. This could not be done very well, so the sailing time was changed to 7 A. M. to-day. While the cap- tair’s back was turned some of the sailors began making preparations to desert ot the first opportunity. The police were notified nnL’I’ the boarding-house runners were ordered away from the ship. The police could not remain all night, how- ever, so a couple of men were sworn in as speciails and kept watch and ward all | night. 'he German ship Christine arrived in port last night in the smartest time made this year. From port to port she was only forty-eight days, which equals the time made by the Laomene in November, 1893, and only one day more than the rec- ord made by the Osborne 1n June, 1894, Vessels which left Newcastle before the Christine and have not yet arrived are the Italian bark Guiseppe, fifty- days, and the British ships Inveram: fifty- four days, and Invergany, sixty-seven days. The John Ena, which arrived a few hours ahead of the Christine, only took fifty days to cover the distance, so that all the Newcastle fleet are making quick runs. The British bark Strathgyfe also got in last night, thus adding another to thelong list of Swansea coal ships.
