Simpson Will Bring the Matter of His Arrest Before the Grand Jury. George W. Simpson, locksmith, 612 Shrader street, who was arrested Saturday for insanity, and discharged by the Insan- ity Commissioners Monday, is determined to have satisfaction from his persecutors. Louis Helbing, a neighbor, who swore to the complaint charging Simpson with in- sanity, is the man he is particularly anxious to punish. Simpson called at the Receiving Hospi- tal yesterday to get the names of the sur- geons and others who saw him and con- versed with him Saturday after his arrest. “I found it would be ‘useless for me,” said Simpson, “to bring a suit against Helbing for damages for false arrest, as there were too many judgments against him. So I consulted Judge Slack, who { was kind enough to release me on Satur- day, and he advised me to consult District Attorney Barnes as to bringing the matter before the Grand Jury. “Isaw Mr. Barnes, and he asked me to THAT GRAND JURY RAID, A Stirring Communication Sent to the Health Board as a Result, ALMSHOUSE OFFICIALS UPHELD. The Management of the City and County Hospital Severely Censured. As aresnlt of its investigations into the management of the City and County Hos- pital and the Almshouse, as reported ex- clusively in yesterday’s Cary, tie Grand Jury has addressed a communication to the Board of Health on the subject which will furnish some interesting reading to its members at its meeting to-day. The Grand Jury lays particular stress on the Almshouse management, commend- ing it in the highest terms and expressing the opinion that it would be prejudicial to the best interests of the taxpayers of the City to make any change in the superin- tendency. The report also stales that the jury found gross mismanagement at the City and County Hospital and that a later and fuller report will be rendered. The com- munication was as tollows: To the Honorable the Board of Health of the City afternoon and resumed ‘consideration of Almshouse and hospital affairs. The members of the jury who .had surprised the officials of the Almshouse and hospi- tal by an unexpected visit Monday were themselves surprised to find in Tee Cair of yesterday morning a full account of their raid, and an accurate synopsis of their report which they had prepared for transmission to the Board of Health. The jury was not in session longer than one hour. The report which was fully dis- cussed the previous evening was adopted with a few slight changes of phraseology. The case of Superintendent Ashworth was not taken up yesterday, as the com- mittee to whom the accusation was re- ferred has not yet submitted a report. Horace D. Dunn, expert of the Grand Jury, ismakingz a thorough investigation in one of the departments of the municipal government. He has not yet visited the Assessor’s office in his capacity as expert. MISS SOULE’S TRIAL. Witnesses Heard at a Meeting of the Board of Education Last Evening. The 1nvestigation of the charges against | Miss Fannie Soule, the teacher of the Potrero Primary School who is charged with treating pupils with more than neces- sary severity, was taken up by the Board of Education last evening and a2 number | of witnesses examined in regard to the matter. ‘Three pupils of the school testified that Miss Soule had roughly used Emma Blake for a tnfling breach of disciptine, but under the questioning of Attorney High- ton, who represented Miss Soule, their stories became somewhat conflicting. The accused teachers’ counsel read an affidavit sworn to by Miss Soule in which she told of the occurrence in question and denied ———————— e e s The Steam-Schooners South Coast and Point Arena as They Appeared When St Arena Is Still Considered Safe and Has Her Crew Aboard. |From a sketch made by Chief Steward P. P. Page of the Point Arena.] arting on Their Voyage to San Francisco. The Point was pulled off by the steamer Whitesboro, and afterward the South Coast picked her up and finally landed her in San Fran. cisco. The Point Arena was on her beam enas, her engines having apparently shifted, but otherwise she wasin good condition. The crew and owners of the South Coast will make considerable money out of the salvage. The Point Arena left San Francisco on the 16th inst. and reached her destination last Saturday. The passengers and cargo were landed and then a_ start was made | [ for other ports. In passing out the Point Arena’s wheel cauglit in the mooring line of the steam schooner W hitesboro and she | became disabled. The latter vessel swung around with the tide, but having steam up | was able to go to the assistance of the | - Point Arena when she drifted on the rocks. | ‘The rope in her whee! disabled the Point Arena, ard the captuin and crew could do | nothing but stand idly by and watch her | drift ashore. Some sail was set, but it had no effect, and the vessel siruck on the north shoal. The Whitesboro then went to her assist- ance and took off the crew and what pas- sengers that were aboard. Later the South Coast towed the steamer off and the crew returned to her. At that time it was thought that she could be towed to San Francisco with the crew aboard, but later it was found that the project was imprac- | ticable. | When a few miles off shore she turned | over on her side, and the men had a narrow escape for their lives. As it was, some of them lost their cloth- ing and others only secured what thing: were thrown out the !Ln'%’oums in which they had stored them b2fore the steamer went on her beam ends. With the masts in the water and the en- gines shifted the Point Arena was a heavy rag and, in consequence, the progress ‘was very slow. Three knots an hour was the average and when off Point Lobos the steam- schooner and her tow were not making two knots. The tug Fearless was seut out, but Captain Hansen refused assistance. Five of the crew, however, of the Point Arena took passage on the tug and came back to the City. The South Coast was then making for the south channel and she finally succeeded in getting into port this morning. X Among those who came on the Alert were P. P. Page and Robert Porter. Page was the steward on the ill-fated steamer, but he is also somewhat of an artist. The sketches in to-day’s CaLL are from drawings made by him when he was on the South Coast and on his way to San Francisco. % When the Point Arena went on her side Page was in one of the staterooms and he barely escaped with his life. The crew— eighteen all told—got into the two life- boats and succeeded 1n reaching the South Coust. ‘“‘Some of us had a narrow escape,” said Steward Page yesterday. “The steamer was apparently buoyant when we started for San Francisco, and when she went over on her beam ends we were all more or less surprised. Of course, we knew that | the vessel was damaged when she struck | on the rocks, but slilfwa thought her in a safe enough condition to tow to San Fran. | cisco. Captain Johnson was of that opin- ion, and a better sailor never stepped in shoe lesther, so we took his word for it. The Point Arena must have been hurt worse than we calculated on, or else she would never have turned over on her side the way she did.” Robert Porter is the man who came near losing his clothes in the accident. “‘The Point Arens kept listing more and more,’’ said he, “*but when she went over on her side we were all taken unawares. Mg clothes were in a heap and were scattere into the water. I mavaged to recover them after we gt into the lifeboat, ana that is how I happen to have more than the rest of my shipmates. “Captain Hansen of the South Coast hung onto the Point Arena, but he had a | Insanity Commissioners, and will give him The Point Arena as She Appeared When Crew Is Shown Escaping to the South Coast in a Lifchoat.

Bakersfield Is Falling Into Line With the Manufacturers’ Association. At a meeting of the directors of the Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Associa- tion yesterday, Manager Tacy reported the result of a visit he and Director Me- Glynn made to Bakersfield where they went to establish a Home Product Club. In hisreport Mr. Tacy said: We held a very satisfactory meeting which was addressed by several prominent citizens of Bakersfield as well as your committee; quite a number of persons signed the pledge 10 give preference to articles of California production, ana considerable interest was shown in the subject of patronizing home industries. Inas. much as Bakersfield has no commerecial organ- | ization of any kind, it was thought that a ciub | organized solely on the plans we submitted (for a Home Product Club would not be | broed enough to cover all the work of develop- ing Kern County that they had in contempla- tion, therefore ‘& special committee was n pointed to consider the proposition we sube mitted and to make such suggestions and alterations as were deemed necessary to suit their conditions. This committee will report at a general meeting of the citizens to be held to-day, at which time we expect they will com. piete the organization of a club or league Wwhich, while it may not be called a Home Product Club, will encompass all the work we had intended’ for sucn clubs, and will largely interest the people of Kern County in the work of this association. The special committee to confer with the Mechanics’ Institute relative to holding a bigz home industry fair next fall told of the rogress made at the last committee con- erence. The %rogreu made was satis- factory to the board, who will wait until the conference is ended before definite action in the premises. Josselyn Held for Trial. Lockwood H.Josselyn, charged with open- ing letters addressed to Mrs. A. D. Howe, was held for trial by United States Commissioner Heacock yesterday. Bail was fixed at $500. ————— taking The Bermudas depend for their perity on the vegetable crop. Onions, potatoes and tomatoes comprise almost the entire production of the islands and give employment to the greater proportion of the inhabitants, enabling them to live comfortably on their comparatively small pros- man at the hawser all the time, ready to portions of ground. and County of San Francisco—GENTLFMEN: We, the undersigned, by our foreman and elary, Grand Jury of she City and County of San Francisco, impaneled on December 30, 1895, being informed that certain charges of in- efficiency, extravagance and general unfitness had been made to your honorable tody against the present superintendent of the City and County Almshouse, have made a very thorough investigation of the said Almshouse, its officers and inmates through our Almshouse Co: mittee and as a body. Our visit in a body on the 20th inst. was an entire surprise to the superintendent, but we found him at his post and seemingly ready and pleased to assist a searching examination of his acquaintance with all the details of his position, his method & and their results. We found many of the in- mates at their noon meal and had an admir- able opportunity to taste the food and question the inmates as fo their general treatment. Of all those questioned, and they were many, and in no case in the hearing or knowledge of any official , we found but two grumblers, and they complained more of the quantity than of the quality of the food, but in this particular our investiga.ions led us to believe the complaints without foundation, Cleanliness and neatness that would b2 almost unusual in many well-conducted pri- vate houses were apparent on all sides, and even the stables and all their surroundings, naturally difficult to keep neatand clean, were in admirable order. We found the superin- tendent thoroughly conversant with every- thing coming to the place in the form of sup- piies, prices and qualities, and everything going on within it. We could find no signs of religious intolerance, in fuct the chapel so far as visible signs are concerned might have been either Protestant or Catholie. We founa a most friendly feeling existing, both toward the superintendent and his wife, which would indicate that personal relations between the officers and the inmates were not those of oppressor and oppressed, We believe it prejudicial to the interests of the taxpayers and the welfare of the unfortu- nates subsisting on their bounty that changes should be made in a1 office where experience is an important factor, without potent reasons reflecting directly on the character and men- agement of the incumbent. We further desire to call your attention to the fact that we on the same day visited the City and County Hospital and found a general mismanagement in the premises, on which we will make a report later, 8nd rake such sug- gestions as will in our opinion be to the best interests of the unfortunates confined therein and the interest of the taxpayer. We further beg of your honorable board to eo-operate with us. Respectfully submitted, FRANK MASKEY (Foreman). F. P. M. LENNAN (Secretary). ———— THE GRAND JURY. Another Speclal Meeting Yester- day—A Surprise for the Members. The Grand Jury, which adjourned Mon- day nightat 11 o'clock, met again yesterday | that she had used more than necessary force in taking Miss Blake to her seat after the latter had started for the princi- pal’s office to complain of the treatment accorded her. Miss Soule was not present on account of illness and Attorney Highton obtained a continuance until Wednesday afternoon next in order to give her achance to testify in detail. THE TIETJENS ESTATE. A San Francisco Woman Who Will Claim a Share of That $85,000,000. Mrs. Matilda Rumpf of this City, whose mother was a first cousin of Teresa Tiet- jens, the singer, deceased, has begun steps toward setting up a claim for a share in the $5,000,000 estate said to be awaiting the arrival of heirs in London. Mrs. Rumpf, through her son, F. J. Rumpf, yesterday consulted his friend, Judge Bahrs, as to what to do in the premises and the Judge consented to cable the United States Consui 2t London for particulars as to the status of the estate, the amount it is appraised at, the admnin- istrator and what heirs have so far re- ported. Mrs. Rumpf is awaiting the reply with some anxiety. . el S TENRL T KNIGHTS AND LADIES. Opening of the Annual Session of the Grand Lodge of Honor.

A resolution was offered and defeated which would make the meeting of the Grand Lodge bi-annual instead of annual, as is now the law. A similar fate befell a resolution which was offered to make San Francisco the permanent place of meeting.

ALONG THE WATER FRONT Harbor Commissioners and the Chamber of Commerce to Confer, WANT THE BELT RAILROAD. A German Sailor Sentenced to Two Years for Mutiny in the Fatherland. The Harbor Commissioners held a short session yesterday. Commissioner Cole was absent and one or two matters went over until his return. The Chamber of Commerce wrote ask- ing what funds were available for the extension of the belt raiiroad and asking when another meeting to discuss the feasibility of the proposition could be beld. President Colnon instructed the secretary to inform the chamber that there was no money available and that the members of the commission would be glad to meet the committee from the chamber either Tuesday or Thursday of next weck. The State Fruit-Growers’ Association is to hold a convention April 27. They want a free market and again wrote to the Com- missioners on the subject. President Col- non and Commissioner Chadbourne agreed to attend the meeting and see if some un- derstanding could not be arrived at. The commission is more than willing to meet the fruit men half-way, but unless they can agree among themselves, then the Commissioners will not move in the mat- ter. Young & Mitchell, the owners of the steam scnooner Cleone, asked for a re- duction of wharfage. The vessel was only at the wharf an hour and then moved to Oakland. Chief Wharfinger Root ex- plained that it was the law that a vessel should be charged for a day if she only stayed twenty minutes ata wharf after tying up. If, however, she moved to other wharves during the twenty-four hours no extra charge was made. The Commissioners decided not to allow Young & Mitchell any rebate, but sent them word to ap pear before the board and make a showing in person if they so de- sired. Bids for the new engines for the State tug Governor lrwin were opened. The Main-street Iron Works (W. Deacon) secured the contract for $2700. The high- est bidaer was the Risdon Iron Works, $4974. Deacon is the man who built the Governor Irwin and also refitted her some years ago, He knows all about her and was thoroughly conversaut with the cost of duplicating her engines. Captain 8. D. Brennon of the General Fairchild has earned another bonus. Yes- terday he completed t e round trip from San Francisco to Nanaimo, B. C., and re- turn in twenty-one days. In pursuance of the established rule in the company he was presented with $50 and a suit of clothes. This makes tiie third bonus Cap- tain Brennon has earned inside of twelve months. The steamer Willamette has had her rudder post repaired and will start running again next Saturday. Captain Cushman may not go out on her, bowever, as he had been very sick with inflammatory rheu- matism and is only now on the road to re- covery. Carl Quednow, a sailor, who struck the captain of the German ship Alice when the vessel was entering this port, has just been tried and sentenced in Germany. Qued- now was held in prison here until the Alice was ready to sail. Then he was ironed and put aboard. He was found guilty of mutiny and was sentenced :o two years’ imprisonment with hard labor: Captain Bennett, superintendent of the Pacitic Coast Steamship Company, has eone East to enjoy a weli-earned vacation. “Harry’’ Goodall, of the firm of Piper, Aden, Goodall & Co., will have charge of the docks until Captain Bennett's return. William B. Furman, who has for years been freight clerk for the same company, has retired, and a new man will take his place next week.
