< THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1896. 5 HIGH OFFICERS COME T BLOWS, Collector Wise and Major Moore Have an Alter- cation. LONG -STANDING . FEUD. Climax of the Quarrel Arising | From the Charges Against Inspectors. WILLIAMS CASE CONTINUED. Location of the Slave Mart in China- town Where Young Girls Are Bought and Sold. Wars and rumors of wars still permeate the Custom-house. As a result of the con- t now on between Special Agent of the Treasury Moore and Collector of the Port Wise blows were said to have been struck | that peace, happiness and plenty await | i them here. They find themselves auc- { tioned off as slaves to the dive-keeper: | Chinatown. | And this is the crimeé which certain | servants of the United States Government |at the port of San Francisco are accused ! | of sanctioning . for coin. They will be | glven every opportunity to explain their | connection with’the landing of a number | of girls within the last three months. { There was much bustle about the third { | floor of the big gray building on Battery | street yesterday: It was all occasioned by | the expected examination of Dick Wil- | iams. The accused was there in ail his | ]‘ glory. | | | He was attended by a retinue of Chinese of high and low degree, all ready to bear witness in his favor and against the other | fellow. They. were arraved in the gay colors peculiar to the Chinese holiday sea- | son, and even Lyman 1. Mowry, who kad® | been retained to defend Williams in all : the splendor and pink of judicial fashion, | was less gorgeous than one of these. | Collector Wise came out of his private | office looking every inch the grand old | man his friends declare him to be, and dis- | | missed the horde of Celestials with a wave | of the hand, saying that they would not be needed until Monday. Then turning to Williams he said: “Hello, Dick! Don’t go away; I want | to see you.” And a few minutes later the Collector, Williams and Mowry put their | heads together in the private office of the bead of the department. This was after the interview with Maior Moore; the inter- | view that terminated so unceremoniou: Moore kept closely to his private apart- ments on the first floor of the Federal building during the afternoon. He even kept the outside door locked and would not see those friendly to him. It was said by The Slave Mart at 812 Jackson Street, Where Chinese Girls Are Held Until Sold to the High [Sketched by a cst Bidders. “ Call” artist.] Moore is said to have got the s the affair took place in the Collector’s private sanctum there are only two witnesses to the incident.

Moore objected to these taps and the dis- cussion suddenly ceased, leaving the ques- tion of landing Chinese and the guilt or innocence ot R. Williams in abeyance. It is said there was a ‘“‘biff, bang,”” after which followed an adjournment. Just who got the better of the contest will never be known, as both sides refuse to talk. One thing is certain, the investi- gation into the charges against Inspector Williams was postponed indefinately, and it may be weeks before the Collector and the special agent of the treasury will be able to adjust their differences and arrange a suitable date. There was a difference between Special Agent Moore and 1,”” said Collector Wise, “but if you want the particulars go to Mr. Moore.” **As a result of the difference there wasa postponement of the investigation, was there not?” “Well, yes; there was,”” answered the Collector, *‘but I don’t know whether that | is anybody’s business or not. You go and see Special Agent Moore; he can give you | all the information you want, but really I know nothing.” “The investigation has not really be- gun,” said the Collector, *but the rule that was followed in the case of Mr. Noves will be followed in that of Mr. Williams, If you want any information in the matter, however, go to Mr. Moore.” This advice was accepted. “Collector Wise and I had a meeting this afternoon,” said Special-Agent Moore, ‘‘to discuss the manner in which the investi- gation shouid be carried on. We had dif- ferent opinions and a little argument fol- lowed, and the resultis that the investiga- tion was postponed. Coilector Wise and I are the best of friends and we are both working in the interest of the Federal Goyernment, The investigation, however, will eventually take place and the guilty parties, if there be any, will be brought to justice.” Asked the cause of the sudden adjourn- ment of the investigation of the case against Williams, the special agent said: “*See Collector Wise.” As aresult of the quarrel between Col- Jector Wise and Special Agent Moore and the several rapid moves that followed on the Custom-house chessboard, the hearing of the case against Interpreter Williams was continued. Williams is accused of aiding in the unlawful landing of Chinese slave girls at the port of San Francisco. Special Agent Moore makes’the charges against him. They are based upon the sayings of certain‘Chinese who are more or less engaged in bringing Chinese girls to the United States and holding them as elaves for immoral purposes. The fact that young and 1nnocent girls from the far-away Celestial Empire have been landed unlawfully here through the instrumentality of the Custom-house ring has been pretty thoroughly established by the secret agents of the Government. These girls are induced to leave their na- tive Jand under misrepresentation. Tley end their parents are given to understand heless they admit the | t of emphasiz- | a wise follower that he was nursing his wound. Meanwhile the Special Agents of the Government are continuing to hunt up | evidence against the accused inspectors. | Even the slave mart at 812 Jackson street, where the Chinese girls are bought | and sold, has been located. Itis there | that the women are taken when they are | landed from the Chin steamers, and there they are held until sold as mistresses or as slaves to the proprietors of dens. The girls who were recently landed on fravdulent certificates and flimsy evidence were held at the mart until disposed of. | They were young and pretty, however, and found ready purchasers.

ORGANIZE FOR ACTION. Their Object Said to Be the Election of Men Who Will Represent Them. TWENTY-ONE BODIES IN LINE. After a Four-Hour Session They Ad- journ Until To-Morrow to Per. fect Their Plans. There was a most generous response last night to the call of the Labor Council issued about a month ago for a mass- meeting of all the labor organizations of | San Francisco. The call was as follows: There is a noticeable and regretable lack of public interest being manifested by the organ- | ized workers of San Francisco in matters per- | Now, this apathy is unworthy of us. We are numerous enough; we have cause and griev- ance enough, and we should have brains enough to remedy this stagnation. Perhaps we lack & knowledge of each other's wants, | hopes and plans.

In order that we may arrive at some unified | programme of action you are hereby invited | and requested to be represented ata conven- | tion of trade and labor organizations called to | meet at 1159 Mission street, Friday evening, February 14, 1896, at 7:30 o’clock. We will then have a full and free discussion of any and all matters pertaining fo the labor movement. The representation will be based upon one | delegate for your charter and one for each 100 | members or a fraction thereof. We sincerely trust that you will be with us, | a5 the occasion and times certainly call for in: telligent and concerted action. There were about 200 present when M. McGlynn, president of the Labor Council, called the meeting to order. T. F. Burns of the Cigar-makers’ Union, was elected temporary chairmanand J. W. Rose of the Painters’ U'nion was chosen to | act as temporary secretary. The following committee on credentials | was then appointed: R. T. Mclver, Paint- | ers’ Union: J. K. Phillips, Typographical Union; J. Hutchinson,Carpenters’ Uinion; N. Blum, Cigar-makers’ U ; August nion Miller, Woodworkers’ Union. After a recess the committee on creden- tials reported that credentials were re- ceived from twenty-two recognized labor organizations, twenty-one from San Fran- | cisco and one from Oakland, the total number of delegates being seventy-eight. It was decided to permit the Oakland dele- gate a seat on the floor of the convention, but no vote in the proceedings, as the call | was interpreted to refer to San Francisco organizations only.

The report of the committee on creden- tials was adopted as presented. On motion of M. McGlynn a committee of five on order of business and organiza- tion was appointed by the chair asfollows: | Myers, Ames, Strybeck, Stepson and But- ler. The committee report was adopted | as follows: Election of officers, reading of minutes, resolutions, new business, corre- spondence, reports of special committees, unfinished business; Roberts’ rules of order to govern. W. H. Hutchinson was elected perma- nent chairman of the convention, T. F. Burns vice-president, J. W. Rose secretary and McGowan, sergeant-at-arms, by acclamation. On motion the chairman appointed the following committee of nine on resolutions and declarations of principle: Myers, Me- Ivor, Bloom, Butler, Rosenberg, Rice, Stenson, Schadt, J. J. Ryan. The following resolution, presented by the Cigarmakers' Union, was then read: W iEREAS, The competitive system of industry based primarily upon the individual owner- ship of nature’s unimodified resources, and subsequently upon the individual ownership of the tools of production, has, with the march of invention and the evolution of society to- ward higher and more complex forms of hu- man relationship, become an insufferable burden, and an undeniable oppression to the wageworking classes; and whereas, the afore- said competitive system (otherwise known as the capitalistic plan of private exploitation of those deprived of tools and land) has, through its phenomenal accumulation of wealth into the hands of the few, become a stumbling- block in the path of ‘progress, a prolific cor- ruptor of public freedom and & menace to individual liberty, using its unjust ad- vantages over the masses of the people to coerce and again cajole them into the support of po- litical measures which would be au insult to the conscience of freemen, and to which their pressing physical needs 'alone give sanction; and wherens, the mentallyscapable among the wageworking classes, knowing the unjust foundation of the competitive system and the unequal ndvaniages accruing o those who control and profit by it, are by far too clever 1ot to know thatall that this iniquitous sys- tem can, of its own motion, possibly yield to the wageworker is merely that amount of his product necessary to the renewsl of his labor yower, withholding from him, by the terms of the system, his well-earned leisure, luxury and recreation; therefore, be it Resoived, That we, the accredited representa- tives of the trades and labor organizations of San Francisco, in convention assembled, after due deliberation, do hereby proclaim it to be our sthcere conviction that the present anar. chial system of private individual land and tool owning, which places the many at the mercy of the few, is the fundamental of the industrial distress and economic slavery of the masses of the workers; and that in accord- ance with the foregoing conviction we pro- ceed to organize our federated forces on such lines as are best calculated to supplant com- petition and its fraudulert fundamentals, by substituting therefor a system of universai co- ration founded upon the soci i the means ef production—land, tool: ital; and be it further Resolved, That to this end we not only organ- ize industrially but in addition thereto use our ;fi:lmcn rights and privileges in a manner consistent with our economic belief, taking such distinct volitical action as will forever throw off the yoke of our capitalist masters. The Painters’ Union presented a similar declaration of principles. T. M. Butler presented the following resolution : That we recommend that the labor societies of San Francisco, through the Labor Couneil, issue an official newspaver, to be delivered free to all members of all its constituent unions. M. McGlynn offered the following: WHEREAS, It is stated on good authority that the presence in the of William Pinkerton, the Chicago detective. 1s due to an attempt on his part 1o secure & footing for his armed force in this State; and whereas, we have witnessed how in every State in which this pander and his minions have been tolerated riot and bloodshed inevitably followed in their wake; therefore, be it Resolved, That the trades unions of San Fran- clico, in meeting assembled, do hereby pledge themselyes to use every honorable means within their poewer to have the following law enacted at the nextsession of the California Legislature: “No armed police force'or representatives of adetective agency shall ever be brought into this State for the suppression of domestic vio- Jence, nor sha!l any other armed or unarmed body of men be brought in for that purpose ex- cept upon theapplication of the Legislature or of the executive of tiiis State whern the Legis- lature is not in session, as provided in the con- stitution of the United States.” A delegate, who asked that his name be not made public as he feared its publica- tion might cost him his job, asked to have the following read: WHEREAS, The eight-hour law enacted by the National Government is being continually violated by unscrupulous contractors, be it Resolved. That this labor convention do most earnestly protest against the continued viola- tion of the eight-hour law, and that our Repre- sentatives in Congress be requested to aid us in the enforcement of the law by calling the attention of the proper officials to our de- mands. From the Bakers’ Union came the sub- joined : WHEREAS, the wage-working bakers of this City, pesides being worked for the greatest nuimber of hours for the least proportionate | pay, are_obliged to pass their working-hours surrounded by sanitary conditions unfit for | human beings; therefore be it Resolved, Thet it is the sense of this conven- tion that sanitation of bakery-shops should be made the subject of rigid.examination by the health authorities, in the interest both of the u{mc health and that of the wageworking akers. It was decided to meet again on Sunday at 10 A. M. at the place of last night’s meet- ing to continue the work of the convention. | §ir. West, one of the representatives of the A. I. U., stated that his organization had in future decided to go into politics and intended to keep a blacklist of those arrayed against labor in the same way in which the 3outhern Pacific Company keelps t‘ blacklist of.the members of the T. F. Burns also stated that the Cigar- makers’ Union had decided to go into politics in the sole interests of labor and the working people. Other speakers also addressed the meeting along the same lines, and it was nearly 12 p. M. before ad- journment was taken. AN INSANE MAN'S MONEY, The Estate of John McDonough, Who Was Prominent in Min- ing Stock Times. Appearance of Two Claimants Who Live in County Tyrone, Ireland, Who Want $10,000. For many years prior to the early pact of 1887 those who had business with Dr. Fox, the well-known capitalist, stock broker and mining man, were waited upon by a stout, able-bodied clerk who was within two inches of reaching the six-foot mark. His name was John McDonough, and he was noted for the affable manner in which he received all who called at the office. He disappeared from the office, and there were but few who were aware of the fact that a malady had affected his brain to such a degree that he had to be committed to the asylum for the insane at Napa. He was sent there on the 21st of March of the year named, and in the desolate | home from which he was taken there re- | | mained his wife and son Frank. These were without relatives in this Citv or State. McDonough remained in the asylum until thudl.‘ith of June of last year, when he died. { During the time he was an inmate of | | the home for the unfortunate he met losses which he never understood. His wife-and | | his son died, but the announcement of their | deaths did not ‘;wrodncc any effect upon him, for his mind could not appreciate the import of the news imparted to him. When the news of his death became known in this City A. C. Freese, the Pub- | lic Administrator, applied for letters of administration, which were issued to him on July 2 following the death, it appear- ing at that time that McDonough had died intestate, and that it was necessary to look after his estate, consisting oi $10,000 in bank. On the 4th inst. there was discovered among effects that belonged to McDon- | ough a will which he had signed before he | lost his mind, and that fact was made known to Attorney M. C. Hassett of this City, who, on examining the document, discovered that it was of no more value, from a legal standpoint, than if it had been so much blank paper. Mrs. McDonough and her son were made the sole legatees, but as both were dead and died before the testator passed away, those who would havye been their heirs at law could not set up a claim to the property. Mr. Hassett has instituted a search in this City for rel- atives of McDonough, but has not been able to discover any. Some time before the finding of the will he was engaged to appear for and represent in the Probate Department of the Superior Court one Michael McDonough, who lives at Lion Mills, in County Tyrone, Ireland. a member of the Royal Irish Constabulary, who claims to be a nephew of the de- ceased. Alexander Vogelsang, another attorney, has entered an appesrance for Susan Coy of Toberlane, County Tvrone, who claims to be a sister of the deceased, but, singular 1t is, that these two claimants are not re- lated. McDonough, in a2 communication recently received, asserts that the rival claimant was never named McDonough, but that she is the daughter of Peter Donaghey. Some time since a commis- sion was issued to take depositions in this matter, and this will arrive here in a few days, when the testimony of Susan Coy will be produced, and this may shed some light upon the alleged relationship. Michael Trainor of this City, who was well acquainted with McDonough before he became insane, said that he met Mc- Donough in Sierra County in 1856, where he was engaged in mining and where he remained until the Reese River excite- ment in 1862, when he went there, was a miner and later was connected with an assay office until 1871, when he came to this city and entered the employment of Dr. Fox. In 1882 McDonough™ became rominently connected with the estate of Michae! Lynch, a well-known capitalist of Virginia City, Nev., who, dying, left an estate valued at $1,000,000. - McDonough was appointed guardian of Lynch’s chil- dren and their esiate by Judge Finn. Mrs. McDonough was Roseina Scanlan before marriage, sister of Wille Scanlan, now living at Carohill, Dumfries Derry, County Donegal, Ireland. Mr. Hassett is waiting for the real heirs of McDonough to present themselves. ———————— A German, Felix Moral, has secured the concession from the Shah of Persia to con- struct a roadway from Bsgdud to Teheran, the concession fo last for seventy-five years.

SAYS WAGES ARE BUT SLAVERY He Urges His Hearers to Help Toward the Dawn of Anarchy’s Reign. There were about twice as many people in Apollo Hall last night as there were seats, for Pietro Gori was to expound the ways of anarchism to his compatriots, and before the time for beginning his address several hundred people were waiting to hear him. The young anarchist spoke for over two and a half hours without any apparent fatigue. He showed himself to be a bril- liant orator, possessed of a perfect Niagara of words, and he dashed into similes, metaphors and flights of rhetoric, which were effective enough in an address, but which could not he compressed into the space of a newspaper report. worse than the siavery of antiquity, for it Wwas to the interest of the master to con- sider the well-being of his slaves. To-day it is to his interest to work them to death. ‘When they send human hearts to tight 1n Africa what does it matter how fast they fall? A hundred horses die and the Gov- ernment regrets them, for horses repre- sent money. But a hundred men are killed! Ob, it costs nothing to replace them. This poor human race is so pro- lific there is nothing ina hundred men more or less.”” ¢ -Coming to what he called the difficult point of the question—the coming social movement—FPietro Gori 'said his hearers must not expect an infallible remedy or an instant change. “Life is always a march toward an ideal,’”” said he; and he instanced Goethe’s story of F: who, cloyed withfpleasure, demanded “‘more! more{" “We of the socialistic school say that the well-being of the worid will come through the restitution of stolen wealth to society and the abolition of private property. We | don’t want distribution, but community of property.” The lecture concluded with a glowing picture of life under anarchistic cordi- tions, when all men would participate in | the joys of existence, and when art and | pleasure would no longer be the monopoly of the minority. “The moral atmosphere | will be quite different from the miasma that you are breathing to-day, but in order to achieve this result you must destroy | the monopoly, or you yourselves will be | destroyed. 1 urge you to aid the cause of anarchy.” L0 AWGELES' BG CAUSH, It Causes an Enormous Increase in the Business of the Courts.

We want to see society reduced to a band of organized laborers. Do not say that this social equality isa dream; it exists, as the world of Christopher Columbus existed.” Having defined his hopes the anarchist turned his attention to modern conditions. *‘Present society is a system of complicated crime,” heremarked cheerfully. “Employ- ers give you the choice of work at starvation rates, with the alternative of starving if you refuse to accept them. In fact, you can be fried or roasted, and you are free to choose the sauce. The employer says: ‘I won'’t force you to be roasted; you are free to refuse the $1 50 orthe §$3 that I offer you, and if you refuse you have liberty to starve.’ This is the ferocious liberty of the prusent state of society. “They do not realize, these capitalists, that man is not a machine. He does not live for himself; he must think of his wife, his children. Their mouths want bread as well as his. “I see here in America your fine build- ings, your stores filled with costly stuffe; they are for rich ladies; your wives must go poorly clad. You are better paid than our Italian peasants, who are always haunted by the livid specter of hunger, but for America, also, I foresee the tragic d. en“Tl:ey tell you that you have worked too much, produced too much. There is a glut in the market and mills and factories must close down. Why, because we have over fatigued ourselves, must we now die of hunger? The society in which we live is crazy: the more we produce the less we have. *‘We anarchists do not study history as they study it in schools—‘Garibaldi won such a battle,” ‘Victor Emmanuel con- quered such a town.” We remember the obscure heroes who fall on the battlefield, the rabble who are slain and whose bones are piled up in a great heap and are for- gotten. We remember, too, the heroes who die of work in the battle of life. ‘What were the middle classes a few cen- turies ago? Nothing. What are they to- day? Everything. What are we, the rabble, to-day? Nothing. But to-morrow we shall hold the power—the movement is already in motion.” The speaker expressed his belief that machines are the great revolutionists, which will be the means of reorganizing society. He described the compvetition which men have to maintain against these automatic laborers. “The machines which could spare our labors are our curse,” he said. “It is because they are notin the hands of the laberer—in the hands—yes, but not in the power.

Alle has that Dr. So-and-So had “visited him once or twice.”” Now, if Lels recovering from a danger- ous illness that man might in all justice be termed a liar. But speaking of this class of prevarl- cators is reminiscent of the fact that they do not seem to be plentiful in the State of Washington. Take the instance of George H. Rice, who some few months ago was on the verge of a most serious and vital nervous trouble. He lives at Fort Canby, Wask.. and when he was fully aware as to how sad a state he was in he applied to that grand medical institute, the Hudson, and being told that bad as his case was it was curable, he placed him- self unreservedly in the hand there. Here is what he has to t0 the result of the treatment: Hudson Medical Institute, Gentlemen: Your favor of July 1 thought I had written you lon, not done so perhaps this will do. The treatment irom the Hudson Medical Insti- tute i3 all that could be expected or desired by any one, as your medicine has, I think, established a ago, but as I have perfect cure in my case,and I hope and think It | will be permanent. I am unable p it deserves, but suflice to it €every respect as a man should. V. GEORGE Now, there is the manly and straightforward let- ter that a Washingtonian has written when he was simply asked as to what was the result of his gomg to that Mecca for all the sick—the Hudson Medical Institute—and it is worthy ot him in that It speaks the truth out plainly. But Mr. Rice is by no means the only one who speaks out fear- essly when asked to state what has been done for im. Thousands join him In praising this great nstitutton. K. C. Taft of Stowe, Cal., writes: fine, with not a sign of the disease no A. Burton of Grass Valley: *The medicine that 1 took did me lots of good.” 8. J. Balley of Weaverville says: “after two months’ treatment with you I feel fully restored 10 health."” Mr. J. T. Ward of Park City, Utah, says: cured of the terrible disease that I had.” Day by day—even hour by hour—these convinc- ing statements come Lo the managers of the Hud- son Medical Institute, and they must be taken as Proof positive that there is hope for every one till the famous speclalists of the Hudson Medical In- stitute say that YOU HAVE AN INCURABLE DISEASE. the el in to_speak hat I “I am feeling “Iam All the Following Cases Are Curable : Catarrh of the head, stomach or bladde bronchial diseases; all functional nervous d shaking pals: all kinds of blood vital forces; rheuma ulcers, wastes : gout; eczema; all sk Ccause aris: spinal_trouble; tion: incipient pare kidney diseases; lum- bago: sciatica: all bladder troubi indigestion; constipation; all visceral which are 'treated by the depurating department.
