Three Favorites Finished in Front. The opening day of the California Jockey Club’s winter race meeting was well at- tended by racegoers. The card offered was an attractive one, and the betting ring taxed to its utmost capacity. No ap- 1t changes or improvements were able; even the wheel. the lively rival of the fore: gn the plungers wary about unloosen- ing their purse strings, and in a way ac- counted for the sluggishnessof the betting, none of the nineteen pencilers being over- burdened with any fierce play. With two exceptions the fields were light, and Starter Ferguson dispatched them in good order. The G. H. Mumm handicap for all ages at six furlongs. with twelve starters, was the feature of the programme. The stake was worth $700 to the w r,and the best procurable riding talent was seen in the In the betting the Burns & use duo, Potentate, with 107 book, buzzing with its ac- | pounds, and Rosebud, in_ at 91 pounds, commanded first call, 7 to5 being the post odds against the pair. Libertine at threes, and Installator with 414 to 1about him, were the next best fancied. The odds against the others ranged from 10t0 150 to 1. | At the post there was but slight delay, the flag sending them away well bunched. | Potentate almost immediately shot to the | front, joined by the two-year-old Perhaps. | The Eastern sprinter managed to keep a neck in front of the youngster until near- ing the drawgate, when he hoisted the white flag and Pernaps, drawing away, won_ cleverly by a length. Potentate's stable-mate, Rosebud, was a good thira. The winner was neglected in the betting of 12and 15 to 1. ; A despised one in the bettin; | Yemen and Ottyana were accorded most of 9 to 5 choice; but in the drive Cash Sloan got the 15 to 1 chance, Gussie, home half a length before Ottvana. outsider, finished third. The next race, a five-furlong dash for two-year-old fill vas a mere exercise galloo for the 3 to 5 favorite, Princess | Noretta, ridden by littie Hewitt, who won romping from Ida H.

At flazfall Slaughter on Ser- vice went to the front and fairly smothered his field, winning by six lengths under a wrap. Julia O took the place handily from Fred Gardner.

Apprehensions That a -Higher Tariff on Woolen Goods May Be Adopted. Several Large Firms of This City Withdraw Their Stocks From Bonded Warehouses. There is no reason for paying §2 when $1 will do the work. This is the conclusion at which some of the City’s principal im- porters of woolen goods, after “rumina- tion deep and long” about the anticipated rise in import duties on such fabrics, have arrived. The practical result of this conclusion has been seen in the action of some of the largest importing-houses, which have paid thousands of doliars’ duty upon large quantities of woolen fabrics consigned to them and hitherto reposing in peace amid the secluded precincts of the bonaed ware- 30 | bouses. Among the firms which thus grabbed old ther Time by bis snowy forclock was the well-known house of Stein, Simon & Co. This Louse had large quantities of broadcloth and expensive woolen fabrics in the Broadw ay and Oriental warehouses. The contemplated increase in duty rates from 50 per cent to 80 per cent ad valorem the heads cf the firm a little ap- as to the effect upon their Accordingly on Christmas eve the firm 29 | withdrew over $22,000 worth of goods from 40 | bond, paying thereupon about $11,000 in import duties. Yesterday the firm paid 500 more and removed the remainder of their goods from peril of an increased im- port rate. Taking their cue from their wary com- petitors in trade, Messrs. Newberger, Reiss & Co. forthwith removea eight cases of cloth from the Vallejo-sireet warehouse, eiss Bros. also removing two cases which they had stored in the same piace. Murphy, Grant & Co. seem to favora more conservative policy. Manager Whip- ple stated yesterday that the firm intended 10 keep an eye upon the progressof the He was of the opinion that no hasty action was called for, though he believed all the importers of 'woolen fabries ought to be prepared for any sudden clrange in import rates which might be bronght about. Levi Stra & Co. are said to be care- fully observing the march of events, | though as yet they bhave left their bonded goods untouched. Among thesmaller im- porting-houses some degree of inquietude appears to prevail, the numbver of with- drawals of deposits of cloth in bonded warehouses during the past month being about thirty-five. The general ideaseems to be that no baste 1s called for, though in somie quarters it is feared that the new tanff bill may be rushed through in short order. The outcome of the affair is looked for with much interest. WARRANTS WILL BE HELD, Auditor Broderick Is Investigat- ing the Board of Super- visors. He Finds More Offics Which He Claims Were Created Without Legal Authority. The fight between the Finance Commit- tee of the Board of Supervisors and the Auditor, which was begun last week, has narrowed down to a personal one between Mr. Broderick and Chairman Taylor of the committee, the former having discov- ered that Mr. Taylor had the Auditor's oftice warrauts lifted out of the report of the committee on his own responsibility after the extire committee at its regular meeting had passed favorably on the matter. Said the Auditor yesterday: I don’t know how this matter is coming out, but I have not changed my determination to let my clerks go unless those bills are ordered paid atthe next meeting of the board. I shall not ask men to work unliess there is some cer- tainty of their bcinfi paid. Some one else will bave to experience the same thing, however, and I don’t mean to let the grass grow on it either. This matter started through my refusal to sign the salary warrant of John J. Sullivan, the bond clerk of the Board of Supervisors, whio was one of Tay- lor's friends who had to be Ern\'ided for, and for whom no place could be found un- less one was created. There is 20 law to authorize such an appoint- ment, and, moreover, other men had jobs made for them for which there is no legal right. Take, for instance, the messenger and third janitor of the Justice Courts. The law pro- vides for two janitors to be appointed by the Justices, but says not a word about a third to be appointed by the Supervisors. The man who occupies the position is one who had to be looked after,and is, by the way, another friend of Mr. Taylor. His'warrant will ot be signed the next time it comes 1o this office, and I think there are a few more who may be held up when 1 have had more time 10 100k ifto the matter. z These Supervisors taik about iy paying too much for my clerk hire. It strikes me that the bills for supplies which are passed weekly by the Finance Committec are an evidence that gouds sold to the municipality come high, for some of them are simply outrageous. Of course if the Supervisors contract tor flour for prison- ers for $4 50 per barrel when it is only worth $3 50 per barrel in the open market, that is their affair, but it certainly looks bad. That ‘exact contract mey not have been made, but there are others equally peculiar. THE FERRY BUILDING. All the Contractors and Their * Bondsmen Ready to Sign at Once. AN EX-SUPERVISOR IN TROUBLE Mr. Dundon Has Laid Rails From His Works Along the Front With. out Permission. The Harbor Commissioners are still worrying over the material for the ferry depot. Just what particular stone will be used has not been decided, but, neverthe- less, sufficient progress has been made to enable the members of the board to let all the contracts. The question of bonds, therefore, came up yesterday, and all the contractors and their bondsmen were present. C.F. Me- Carthy, who has the stonework contract, had two bondsmen present ready to qualify in the sum of $115,000 each. This started a discussion, as President Colnon asked if each man who went on the bond was not supposed to swear that he was worth double the amount of the bond over and above all his just and lawful debts. Sec- retary Keegan said that the custom had been to always accept the bondsmen on the basis of the amount mentioned 'in the bond. Tirey L. Ford, the board’s attorney, was appealed to, and he said that according to the bond each signer was liable for the fuli amount. It was finaily decided that each ! bondsman should qualify in the full | amount of each bond, and that each bond should be executed before a notary public. The other contractors and the amount of Risdon (ron Works, % $24,000; J. Smith & Co., $6500; ronin, $21,500, and E. 1. Duffy $6000. When eacih contractor had submitted his sureties the Commis- oners went into executive session to con- sider the financial standing of the various names sent in. Ex-Supervisor P. F. Dundon has got himself into a tangle with the commission. He evidently thinks he can do as he pleases on the water front, and during ihe past week has been laying railrcad tracks across the State’s property in spite of the protest of the Chief Wharfinger. Dundon 1s the president of the San Francisco Tim- ber Preserving Company, and some time ago he rented a piece of the State’s prop- erty on section B of the seawall. Some buildings_have been erected on the lot, and then Dundon laid rails from the sheds to the wharf. In order to do this he had to tear up the street, and it was oulf' when the woodwork was reached that he thought it necessary to ask the permission of the | board. The matter was referred to Chief Engineer Holmes, and the chances are that he will make Mr. Dundon take up his rails and apply to the board in the reguiar manner. 2k Adams, secretary of Highland irange of Wrights, wrote to the Commis- sioners in regard to the establishment of a free fruit market on the water front. He wanted to know whether the board had the power to establish such a| depot, and, if it had not, what special | legislation would be necessary. Secrelur_\'! | Keegan said a fruit market could not be estabiished, because it would be an extra tax upon shipping. President Colnon favored the schene, and said that a smail charge to each dealer would cover ail the expenses. Commissioner Cole also favored the establishment of a market on the | ground that it would enable the poor peo- ple to buy fruit and vegetables cheap. The discussior: was stopped by Commis- sioner Chadbourne, who said it would be months before the fruit season camein, and that there was plenty of time in which to study up the question. In the mean- time the members of the board will find | out whether they liave the power to estab- lish a fruit market on the water front. CONTRACTORS INTROUBLE Work on Rountree Bros. Va- llejo Schoolhouse Contract Stopped. The Carpenters on a Strike for Pay. Accused of Violating a State Law. The Rountree Brothers, who have a con- tract to construct a rew schoolhouse in North Vallejo, have suddenly found them- selves in a peck of trouble. They have been called 1o time by the Solano County Board of Education for not finishing the job ten days ago on the required time, their men have gone on a strike, and the contractors have only until next Monday to get the work under way again. More than that, they have the Labor Commis- sioner hot on their heels for violating the State eight-hour law. The trouble was precipitated by their failure to pay their workmen. The story told by one of the carpenters was that he came to this City and presented to one of the brothers a draft signed by the one at Vallejo for money due for labor. Accord- ing to the carpenter’s statement Rountree tore the pavper to pieces and became very violent in his refusal to pay the money. This case was reported to E. R. Johnson, the business agent for the Carpenters’ Dis- trict Council. Incidentally the carpenter mentioned that the other carpenters on the Vallejo schoolhouse job had not been paic for their labor. Only a few of the work- ingmen had been paid, so he said, and he added that the men were being worked nine hours a day instead of eizht, as re- quired by the State law fi?veming State, county and municipal work. Last Mounday Johnson went to Vallejo and found, so he says, that his informant was in the main correct in his statements. More than that, most of the men had gone out on a strike until they should re- ceive their back pay in full. Between $350 and $400 was due therh, they said. John- son advised all to quit and hold their ground until they got their money. ‘While Johnson was in Vallejo the School Board took up the matter and read the riot act to Rountree. He was told that the work was long overdue, as he had only reached the plastering, and there was lots of work to be done. The board vave Roun- tree until next Monday to get the work in progress again, ‘I'his was a severe blow to the contractor, who cannot get the men Lo resume their work until they are paid. The next payment from the county on the contract is not due until tbe plastering and woodwork is done and one coat of paint put on the building. Johnson did not let his advantage pass, bui on return- ing to this City he called upon Laoor Com- missioner Fitzgerald, to whom he com- plained that the eight-hour law had been viclated in county work by Contractor Rountree. The Labor Commissioner has had several | complaints of a similar character, and the offenders always got out of the ditficuly, by claiming that they were paying their men by the hour, and not by the day. Mr. Fitzgerald asked for -further information upon the matter of the Vallejo contract, and Johnson presented hbim with the following atlidavit: VALLEJO, Dec. 21, 1895, ing upon the public schoolhouse now being erected in North Vallejo, said schoolhouse be- ing erected under contract with the Board of Supervisors or authorities of Solano County, hereby certify that under the prosecution of this said work we are required to work as car- penters nine hoarsadey at from $1 50 to $3 50 per diem without reference to work or pay by the hour; that we are hired by the day and ars prid by the day, and do not work ata stated yrlceflver hour.” "Respectiully submitted, R. E. Porter, I. L. 8. Sayer, S, P. Jensen, J. A. Landram, r.'A. Keen, J. 'P. Richart, W. J. Rowles, Joseph Myers. This is really the first case where any- thing of a positive nature has been re- ceived relative to a violation of the eight- hour law. To-day Deputy Labor Commis- sioner C. L. Dama will go to Vallejo and make an investigation. If he finds tuat the law has been vi ed he will cause the Board of Supervisors to be enjoined from paying the contractors upon a con- tract which is not being carried out ac- cording to the law. —————— Cruelty to a Child. Maud Howard, a young woman living on Stockton street, was arrested yesterday by Officer McMurray of the Society for the Pre- vention of Cruelty to Children. She had a child in her arms which bore painful evidence of gross negiect. Maud said the child was not hers, but Josie Watson’s, and was given into her care about two weeks ago. She declared that since then the child had been improving. HOTEL ARRIVALS. NEW WESTERN.
