10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, MAY 10, 1896. PRISON-MADE JUTE BAGS Only a Few Thousand Borax Sacks to Be Made at San Quentin, COMPETING WITH FREE LABOR. State Prison Directors In a Quandary About Providing for Insane Prisoners. At the regular meeting of the State Board of Prison Directors at San Quentin yester- day there was present R. M. Fitzgerald, 5 Hayes, James H. Wilkins and E. J. Depue, J. H, Neff absent. The principal subject considered was the manufacture of jute bags. v Warden Hale in his report stated that the sale of jute bags for the season was 500,000, Of these 200,000 were sugar baes, which sold for cents. Juteon hand and to be delivered at the mill in a short time amounts to 5813 bales. This will last at the present rate of consumption uutil about December 1. The matter of selling 10,000 borax bags | to the Pacitic Borax Company brought up the subject of the protest of the Oakland Cotton Mills against competing with con- vict labor. Director Fitzgerald stated that he had discussed the matter with Mr. Ruth- erford of the Oakland company before the contract was let, but he did not make much objection to the State turning out | the work. It was not until after the Warden had made the contract with the borax firm that the employes of the cotton mill entered their protest against what the; considered unfair competition. Then 1t was that Mr. Fitzgerala called the atten- tion of Mr. Rutherford to the fact that the State has worked up a lttle trade in the sale of sugar bags to the Chino refinery and with the Sandwich Islands. He wanted to know of Mr. Rutheriord if a protest would be made if the State turns its atten- tion to this class of product. Mr. Ruther- ford told him that there would not. Director Hayes said that after the board works up a trade in these lines it cannot afford to entertain any more protests in that direction. It was the sentiment of the directors that while not desiring to enter into competition with free labor there are several kinds of jute bags. that the free mills are not prepared to handle. 1t was decided to fill the order for 10,000 borax bags, but not to make any more. tear down the old brick laundry and - erect another structure for the confinement of weak-minded and insane prisoners.. The present ‘‘cranky v’ is not a- fit place for this class of prisoners. The bricks could be saved and be used in a new building. This raised another annoying subject. There is no fund upoa which to draw to erect a suitable building for the criminal insane, and there is too much risk in send- ing them to the asylums. Director Wilkins suggested that thesub- ject be taken up at the next meeting at Folsom. 1t might be advisable to buird a | ward for the insane at that prison. The quarries there would furnish all the mate- rial necess for a substantial structure, ane convicts could be kept at | som. The subject was laid over until the next meetingat Folsom. The Warden was authorized to tear down the old laun- dry. The reports of about two dozen pnmle‘ convicts now scattered all over the State were read. showing that the system is working successfully, and that the men business during some hour of daylight. | On the other hand, William G. Stafford, | the new secretary of the association, pre- fers that «he directors should convene at | some hour between twilight and dawn. { The noon hour is very convenient to Mr. | Boqui. who dwells in Marin County after dark, and prefers to pass his evenings at home. Mr. Bosqui's ideas of happiness consist in giving his days to art and his ! nights to sleep. The commercial environment which heages the artistic genius of Mr. Stafford | relates to daily transactions in Beaver Hill | coal. Mr. Stafford would give both his | days and nights to art were he a million- aire, but the hard features of selling a long | ton of coal for a figure below the cost of a | picture-frame keeps him in the ranks of | the toilers. While he cannot give lavishly in money to promote art he can lend his moral sup- port and give some of his time, but he cannot conscientiously give that time in | the daylight, when he ought to be watch- | ing the coal market and keeping an eye on Alex Dunsmuir, Arthur Ebbetts, P. B. Cornwall and other dealers in hard and soft coal. Now, it occurred to Mr. Martin of the could reconcile the differences in the board | by having lunch at the institute on the | days the board met. He fancied that this | and the proposed spread at the Art Insti- | tute on the hill unfolded another and a | broader proposition. | There he would be compellea to eat his | victuals, talk of artand think of coal, all |at the same time. The idea did not par- | ticularly catch the fancy of Secretary | Stafford. The secretary was not so easily { won over. At his usual place of luncheon, | the Bohemian Ciub, be knows that he can eat his food and yet keep his mind on coal, but the task was too great and he de- clined the round table at the institute. from settlement. " Bosqui_ holds cut for daylight sessions, and Stafford insfsts that the evening hours should be sacred to art. ————— Probably the largest casting ever made in the country was turned out recently at a foundry in Pittstield.

Conrad Praetzel was appointed as parole clerk to take charee of this department at & salary of $75 per month. Several convicis appeared before the board. Adam Stroh ‘was charged with having opium in his possession. He said that he has been using opium since Decem- ber. It was given to him by a friend, but he refused to divulge the name of his | friend, nor could any information be ob- | tained as to how the drug was taken into the prison. The guard testified that in Stroh‘s cell were about two pounds of the drug. The board decided that Stroh should forfeit all his credits and wear a ball ana chain for thirty days. William LaBrie asked for a restoration of twenty-seven months’ credits, forfeited for stealing $5 from the captain of the | prison steamer Caroline. The case was continued indefinitely, as LaBrie has still a long term to serve. Upon the recommendation of the War- den eight months’ credits were restored to John McNamee, accused of fighting. This will let the young fellow leave the prison on Angust 2. SWEET HOUR OF ART. Directors Bosqui and Stafford of the Art Association Cannot Agree. The new directory of the San Francisco Art Association is not the happiest official family in town. There are several points upon which the board cannot agree, and one which seems trivial at first glance becomes more important as the subject is observed. This voint relates to the hour | of board meetings. It is claimed that Di- rector Bosqui, who has given a guiding hand to the Art Association for more than twenty years, prefers to meet his fellow- directors for the transaction of official | The British Iron Bark Centaur Burning at Sea, April 17, Southwest of Hilo. | Sketched by a “Call’ artist from a description.] THE BARK CENTAUR LOST, Burned at Sea Eight Hundred Miles to the Southward From Hilo. | CREW DRIVEN TO THE BOATS. | After Exposure in a Gale for Nine Days the Castaways Reach the Shore. | The Oceanic steamship Monowai, which arrived yesterday morning from Austra- lia by way of Honolalu, brings the news | | of the loss of the British bark Centaur, off | | Hilo, April 17.

REGARD EACH OTHER HIGHLY. Published Statements to the Contrary | Caustically Denounced by Both ! Gentlemen. Both William F. Herrin, chief counse of the Southern Pacitic Company, and General W. H. L.

So strongly bas the article in question jarred the peace of mind of the Republi- can general, who acted as the convention correspondent of the Democratic paper, which now seeks to create estranzement between him and the chief counsel of the Southern Pacific Company, that he has addressed the following communication on the subject to THE CALL: SAN FRANCISCO, CAL., May 9, 1896. To the Editor of the Ezaminer—Sir: 1 have A with some personal interest the article on ;‘n‘gesol the Examiner of this day, entitled “‘General Barnes Loses His Salary.” 1 cannot imagine the source from which the statements made in the article emanated. It is enough to say that it is wholly without foundation in fact so far as it relates to me. The article states that I refused to discuss the matter or the reasons for the change. have to sav that I have never been spoken to on the subject by any person. It also states: " ‘“Herrin and Barnes are not the best of friends, and their dislike of each other goes back to the days of the Sharon di- Jorce case.” 1 desire to say that, on the con- trary, Mr. Herrin and myseif are the best of friends, and our friendsh:p is founded upon mutual respect and esteem. Mr. Herrin bas never done sn unfriendly act to me, and, on the contrary, has shown his kindly feelings in many ways and at a1l times, and I should be glad of an opportunity to render like service to him. Mr. genin has never gone out of his way toattack my legalability ; on the contrary, he has procured my employment in important cases. not displeased when Mr. Herrin De- e.nlm‘ev:;e chief go\mnel of the Southern Pa- oific. Company. 1 was glad of it. I never sought the position and, so far asIknow, I ‘was never suggested as a possible candidate tor it. Itdid not nettle me to have Mr. Herrin ut over me. I never had any assurance rom the Crockers that my relation to the company would not be disturbed. Colonel Crocker and myself never spoke on the subject. Ti Mr. Herrin's attitude toward mc has the approval of the Huntingtons 1 am pleased. ¥ acquaintance with Mr. C. P. Huntington is very siight; indeed, I never met him socially until his last visit to San Francisco. Iam, however, acquainted with Mr. H. E. Hunting ton and like him very much, and our relations have always been most pleasant, and I know no reason why they shonld not continue as they are. Yours truly, W. H. L. BARNES. Not less outspoken than General Barnes is Mr. Herrin, who when interviewed yes- terday on the matter expressed his indig- nation as follows: i ¢ “The article in the Examiner this morn- ing appears to be a fabrication from be- ginning to end. There has been no change whatever in the terms of em.p'oyment of General Barnes by the company. On the contrary, his employment stands just as - it did when I became chief counsel of the | € company. Lo“TrLe's!atement, therefore, that some warm conversation had occurred between General Barnes and myself on the subject is entirely untrue, as there has been no change and, in fact, no thought of BEe, < s cn‘?hgis also stated that I declined to dis- cuss the reasons for this change. This. 100, is entirely untrue, as the matter was never mentioned to me. The first intima- tion I had of it was when my attention was called to the article as published. “The statement that ‘Herrin and Barnes are not the best of friends’ is also made out of whole cloth. We have never had any difficulty or unpleasantness, and our relations throughout the Sharon divorce case were entirely pleasant and friendly and in the last proceedings had in this litigation General Barnes and I acted together as sole attorneys for the Sharon estate.” On being shown General Barnes’ letter and after perusing it he said in emphatic tones, “I indorse everything said by Gen- eral Barnes.” FEMALE EMBEZZLER. Jennle Morgan, Alias Mrs. C. A. Doug- | las, Arrested. Jennie Morgan, alias Mrs. C. A. Doug- las, was taken from the City and County Hospital to the City Prison yesterday morning by Detective Anthony, and booked on the charge of felony embezzle- ment. The complaining witness against her is J. H. Scott, a dealer in pianos. She bought a piano from him on the installment plan, and sold it to Professor Bonelli, 215 Powell street for $60, after she had paid the first instatlment. She said yesterday that her husband died in Salem, Or., eight months ago. She came to Oaxland, where she met a farmer named Charles A. Douglas, and he insti- ated her to buy the piano and sell it. ghe daid not know where he lived in Oak- land. The police do not place any credit in her story.

The younger members of the orchestra espe- cially are very conndent and hopeful. . “Mr. Roncovieri has been conscientious in his instruction, and I believe that we have an orchestra that for execution can be compared favorably with any amateur orchestra in the country. “‘When we look about us at the wee mites toddling about the street with little OT no supervision, and reflect that the lives they lead are likely to place them in need of skilltul nursing and good wholesome food at any time, we all ought to quit theorizing about how to manage to relieve them, and get down to good, practical, earnest work in their behalf. “The Saturdav Morning Orchestra has merely joined the procession in behalf of the children.
