ALONG THE WATER FRONT The Next Vessel for the Gold Fields Will Be the Sophie Sutherland. RAISING OF THE BLAIRMORE. All Bids May Be Rejected and the Wreck Sold to the H'gh~st Bidder. The rush to the Alaskan gold fields still continues. In spite of the discouragirg news from Juneau and Sitka vessels are still being fitted out for the new El Do- rado. The big schooner Sophie Suther- land will be the next to get away, and as she is a very fast vessel the chances are that she will reach her destination before the larger craft that sailed weeks ahead of her Sheisbound for the mouth of Resurrec- tion Creek and will land her passengers was resolved that each member must pre- sent before the 1st of May a list of ail the persons and families who are behindhand 1n settling their accounts at his fruitstore.

SIMPLE PEDESTAL OF MARBLE. | | The Money for Its Erection Nearly All Subscribed—Supervisors Must Be Consulted. The committee chosen by the Guild of | Arts and Crafts—Mrs. Virgil Williams, | Horace Platt and Bruce Porter—to design a | | monument to Robert Louis Stevenson for | | the Plaza, concluded last night in favor of a simple pedestal surmounted by a ship. | Recently the committee submitted vari- ous designs to the Supervisors for ap- proval, and they were rejected for various | reasons. Since then the designers have been working on something new. All [Sketched by a “Call” artist.] The Schooner Sophie Sutherland That Will Probably Take the Last Consignment of Miners to Alaska. | within five miles of the gold fields. Over half a hundred men have made up their minds to tempt fortune in the far north, and the work of getting quarters ready for them is rapidly progressing. As the schooner was formerly used as a sealer, there is quite a number of bunks in her accommodate all who want to sail on her, quarters have had to be erected midships. The news from Alaska which came down on the City of Puebla yesterday goes to show that men who left here early have not fared well, They were short of money and many of them are stranded in Juneau and Circle City. Forty-mile Creek and Birch Creek are crowded,and provisions xell at ruinous prices. Flour is §8 per 100 goods 50 cents acan. At Forty-mile Creek the thermometer registered 50 degrees be- low zero, but at Cooks Inlet it only regis- tered 15 degrees below zero. The climate there is much milder than on the Yukon, and as therush to that point has not been as great as to Juneau and Sitka the miners are faring better. The Sophie Sutherland is now fitting out at Washington-street wharf, and will get away next Saturday. Captain Russell has been relieved of the command of the City of Rio de Janeiro and other heads are likely to fall before the steamer leaves the dock to-day. Cap- tain William Ward, who was given a leave of absence from the steamer Cnina nearly a year ago, will succeed him, and it is said that Russell will take one of the Panama steamers. As stated in THE CALL the Pa- cific Mail Company is not satisfied with the manner in which the Rio was handled on her last trip to Japan and a number of the officers will have to suffer. The burn- ing of the deckhouses for fuel and the fact tbat there was nearly thirty tons of coal in the bunkers when the steamer reached Honotulu tells very much against all con- cerned.

Leaving Honolulu the Archer ran into a head sea and agale of wind. anything could be done the foretopmast enapped off and the forecastle and cabin were flooded.

The question of raising the Blairmore is still in abeyance. stood that the successful bidder is not at all anxious to take the job of raising the sunken vessel, and Lloyd’s agents are just asfar from reaching a decision as they were on Tuesday. Captain Hawkins, one of the owners of the sunken ship, is now on his way here from England, and the chances are that nothing will be done until his arrival. In that event the wreck will be sold as it lies, and the highest bid- der will have to take all the risks entailed jin raising it. This is the course favored by the underwriters, and it will probably be followed. A BLACKLIST. How Retail Fruit-Dealers Intend to Pro- tect Their Interests—No Pay No Fruit, People who habitually neglect the little ceremony of settling the fruitman’s ac- count are to be starved into better ways next month. They may still be able to wring bread from the baker and meat from the butcher on credit, but the succulent potato, the juicy orange and all kinds of poultry will be coldly denied them until they have paid the fruitman all they owe. This decision has just been taken by a new organization known as *‘La Societe d1 Protezione fra I Rivenditori di Trutta e Poliame.” Being interpreted this name means Protective Society of Fruit and Poultry Dealers. s Over two hundred dealers have joined the organization and its ranks are finining recruits at every meeting.

Choynski was a| strong favorite when the pools opened at | | 2 to 1, but before the wagering was brought | | to a conclusion the supporters of Sharkey | | appeared to be quite numerous in the bet- | ting ring and the pools closed with | Choynski a favorite at slight odds. | Sharkey is resting now and will be in magnificent condition this evening when | he will toe the scratch azainst his formid- | able opponent. He has very little to say regarding his chences against Choynsk but there can be no gainsaying that he h | great confidence in his ability to stand off | the man who made such a game battle | against Goddard, *‘the Barrier champion,” and other noted pugilists whom Choynski | has met in the past five years. { I know that there are many prople of | | sporting proclivities who actually believe | | that I will prove a chopping-block for | | Choynski,” said Sharkey, when asked | | what he thought his chances of success | would amount to against California Joe. “I know that those wise men who think | that I am not a fit subject to meet a good second-class man put_their money on Sul- livan when he met Corbett, and squealed | like pigs_when they lost. They said the same of Corbett as they say of me now, but I think they will be jfooled again. I| whipped every man I met so far,and I | | think my chances of keeping Choyuski uessing for eight rounds are good. I do not pretend to say that I can whip Choynski, but I have all the confidence in | the world of fooling a whole lot of those fellows who think that I am the kind of a | man that Choynski can do with as he pleases. After th fight is over there will be | many know-it-ail sports who will have | good reason to cuss their luck for betting against Sailor Shark.” Choynski cannot venture an opinion as to what the resnlt of his contract with Sharkey will amount to. “I have never seen my next opponent [ box,” said Joe, “therefore I cannot pre- sume anything. My manager, Parson Davies, informs me that Sharkey is a dangerous man; that he is as strongasa carthorse and unquestionably game. I Euthim up as being a sezond Goddard, ut on a smaller scale. “If he can stand the same kind of pun- ishment that I gave the Australian ne will surprise me very much indeed, but I will | fight Sharkey on different lines, as I have a contract on hand to stop him in eignt i rounds or less. | “Of course I expect to stop him.

PAGE IS CONVICTED. The Jury in the Case of the Ex-Distriot Attorney Returns a Verdict in Forty-Five Minutes. The trial of James D. Page, the ex-Dis- trict Attorney charged with embezzling $4000 from the estate of Louis Lichneker, his insane ward, was given to the jury last evening who in forty-five minutes returned a verdict of guilty. The case opened and closed during the morning. Ex-Judge Levy was called to testify to having appointed Page guardian of Lichueker's estate,and Judge Slack told how he discharged him for not obeving citations to show where the missing money was. Detective Anthony told how he brought the fleeing attorney from New York, and then the citations of the courts were read to the jury. This closed the prosecution. Counsel for the defense moved for a dis- missal. This was not granted, and the de- fense closed witiout testimony. The case was argued during the afternoon, the con- tention of the defense being that no one authorized to do so demanded the $4000, consequently it was not embezzlement. MIDWEEK THEATER NOTES Last Performances of “Pudd’n- head Wilson” at the Columbia Theater. Richard Mansfield Meets With the Reward of M:rit at the Baldwin. Richard Mansfield’s finished impersona- tion of the title role in ‘“‘Beau Brummell” is giving pleasure to large houses at the Baldwin Theater, “Beau Brummeli” will be presented during the remainder of this week. Next Monday night Mansfield will inaugurate the second week of his engage- ment with the first production in this City of his new play, “The Story of Rodion, the Student.” The California Theater is still enjoyinga prosperous season with Peter F. Dailey and his very amusing farce, “The Night Clerk.” The last performance of the piece will be given on Sunday night. Roland Reed brings his new comedy to the California Theater next Monday night. The piece is a satire and is called “The Politician.” It is the joint work of the late David D. Lloyd and Sydney Rosen- feld. To-morrow night an unusualiy large house is expecied, as it will be the occasion of the benefit tendered Manager E. Rosen- baum by Rich & Harris ana Peter F. Dailey. A programme has been arranged which includes, as_well as the regular per- | formance of *‘The Night Clerk,” a charac- ter specialty by Charies B. Eldridge; also through the provosition to retain the ship idea was respected, and so there is a bronze vessel, conventionalized, of course, as a dominant feature of the monument. Theé scheme is for a simple classic pedes- tal rising from the plainest kind of a molded base that is set upon broad flags, without any special basin for water from the drinking fountain, There is a bold, substantial plinth large enough to afford space for the whole of the central quotation from the Christmas sermon, often quoted in connection h this monument. Near the baseline of the plinth is a spigot with bronze dolvhins | forming a bowl beneath, where the thirsty may find water to drink while reading the sympathetic quaint words of Stevenson. | The bronze ship rests on dolphins, fash- ioned to serve as consols and lendingz a picturesque character to the monument. This ship, of course, presents in a pecu- liarly appropriate way the character of the | acts by Tom McGrath, the Nawns, the | twin brothers, Georgeand Charles Wiener, | and others. There is no falling off in the size of the houses at “Pudd'nbead Wilson™ at the | Columbia Theater.

New York Cooking School, CARPENTERS ON A STRIKE Eight Union Men Leave the First and Market Streets Job. They Positive'y Refuse to Work With P. N. Kuss’ Non-Union Painters. The carpenters at work on the big build- ing on Market and First streets went out on a strike yesterday morning rather than work on a job with non-union men. The objectionable workmen were a lot of P. N. Kuss’ painters. The union men are determined to maintain and uphold the working-card adopted by the affiliated unions, and they were prepared to strike as soon as Kuss' painters went to work | rather than violate their obligations. William Grant, the contractor, has been particularly unfortunate with this piec: of work. He made the contract some time before April 1, when the card system went into effect. He sublet the lathing contract to a man who used non-union lathers, and ihe council declared it to be an unfair job This was without any prejudice against | Grant, who is recognized as one of the best friends the union possesses. In time | the lathers got away and the job was unionized at once by the contractor. It was understood that there would be | trouble again because Grant had let the | painting contract to Kuss long before the 1st_of Avpril, and before the painters’ strike, when Kuss came out openly ana declared that he would conducta non- union shop. When the painters went to work yesterday morning Grant was pow- erless’to prevent trouble, because he had already let the contract, from which Kuss would not release him. When the union contractors objected to the presence of the non-union gang he ex- plained the situation to them and said he was sorry to see them go, and thatif he bad been able to prevent the trouble he | would have done so. The best of feeling | exists between the union men and Con- tractor Grant. There still remains con- siderable work to be done by carpenters on the building, and eight men could find employment therein for at least three | weeks. An upper story and a large hall- | way remain to be finished. el It is probable that Contractor Grant will be obliged to put on a new lot of non- | union men to finish the work on time, | much as he regrets to do so. The carpenters are making active prepa- rations for their picnie, which will be held at Sunset Park_on tne 26tu inst. Among the features will be a tug-of-war contest for a prize. The bheavy-weizhts of union 483 have been selected, with R. W.Smith, the heaviest man in the union, as anchor- man. This team will compete with a team picked from unions 22, 304 and the amalgamated union. The former team will meet at 115 Turk street this evening, and make arrangements to go into train- ing. 'i"l)e painters’ picnic will be held at the ; same park on May 17. A large attendance is expected, as_there wil bea number of striking novelties introduced. — e | Librarian Thoma Will Retire. | J.G. Thoma, one of the most popular of the | attaches of the German Hospital, will retire | from his position as librarian and sever his ‘ connection with the hospital May 1. His long | and confining service had the effect of break- | ing down his health, and a change of scene | and an occupation less confining was necessary. | Ata meeting of the hospital commistee of the | | German General Benevolent Society, held on | the 9th, Superintendent Brown spoke of Mr. gnation and expressed great re- gret, as his services were deemed almost in- valuable, Thoma's position as guard and | librarian brought 'm into contact with lll} who came to the hospital, and his cheering | words and kindly menner made him a general | favorite.

The monument is intended to be twelve feet high from the ground to the top of the bronze masts, and the proportions have been carefully considered, so that this simple pedestal reverts to the original idea of a shaft. It is intended to use Californian marble of a light color, and to have the ship in green bronze with gilded sails, The cost has been estimated at $1000, and only $300 is needed to complete that amount. The Guild of Arts and Crafts is satisfied that the balance will ‘be con- tributed immediately, and it finds new satisfaction in koowing that James D. Phelan has interested himself in the monument and promised to support the efforts of the committee in having it erected. Affirmed After Three Years.
