6 4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, MAY 17, 1896. W, H.T, DURRANT'S EXPENSIVE TRIAL, It Has Cost the City, All Told, Over Sixteen Thousand. | ..... | THREE MONTHS' WORK. The District Attereey’s Figuring cn Salaries and Ex- penses. TWENTY -SiX MEN ENGAGED. Their Entire Time and Attention Was Continually Needed for the Case. Now that the case of Theodore Durrant is nearly ready for the Supreme Court | people are beginning to wonder just what | his crimes and his trial have cost the City. ‘ The expenses of the trial and all things | connected with it are not easy to fignre‘ out, but outside of the salaries of the | officers engaged in the case they do not come to a very large amount. It istrue the salaries of the officials would have gone on just the same had the tragedy in | Emmannei Church never been committed, but the fact remains that twenty-six of the City’s servants did nothing else from July | 22 to November 1, 1835, but look after Dur- rant and the litigation over him. There was Judge Murphy, who tried the | case; his salary $233 a month; then District Attorney Barnes at $416 a month sistant District Attorney Peixotto | a stenographer at $10 a day, two | courtroom clerks drawing together $350 & month, six bailiffs 2t $150 a month each, | Csptain Lees and’ three detectives at $150 | and $125 a month and ten police officers | each dra wing $100 a month. All these were constantly engaged on the case from the opening of the trial. The police were always on guard in the | balls and Captain Lees and the three de- tectives spent every day in court or work- | ing up evidence. Business in their sev- eral lines had to wait until Durrant’s case had Leen settled. | Of expenses peculiar to the trial there | was about $2000 for transcribing testi- | mony ; $25Q for an expert on handwriting; | §100 for the services of Professor Price, | another expert; §25 each to Dr. Maysand | Dr. Rosenstirn, more experts; $500 for | foreign witness fees and expenses; $200 for | exhibits, and now there is nearly due $1100 | for printing the transcript for the Su-A | daughte; preme Court. These are all estimates, but they are about as close to the truth asitis possible to come. This figuring would make $4200 the trial expenses and $11,428 as salaries. This. with $500 allowed for Police Court and preliminary expenses, brings the total to $16,123. As estimated yesterday by Mr. Barnes the following is the schedule of expenses. DURRANT CASE FROM JULY 22, 1885 70 NOVEM- BER 1, 1895, OB THREE MONTHS. Judge Murphy’s salary, $338 per month. $999 District Attorney’ssalary, $416 per mont! 1254 Assistant District Attorney’s saiary, $250 per month.. 5 750 Courtroom cierk’s salary, $175 per mont| 525 Assistant courtroom clérk’s salary av $ per month Six bailiffs’ salary at $160 each per mon Shorthand report r scribing, aboat.

Ten officers’ salary, $100 each per month.. pert (handwriiing). . pert (Professor Price) . 500 ...316,128 Iris not possible that Durrant can be executed, should his sentence be affirmed, before next December. His case will come before the Supreme Court in July at the earliest. The Judges have ninety days to decide it, and then the remittur must wait thirty days anyway, if time is demanded for a rebearing. This will bring the case | again before the Superior Court in the end of October or the beginnin® of November, and then the court cannot set the date of execution any less than sixty days from the date of sentence. This will bring the date at the earliest possible, in the end of December. This is of course if no delays are met with, but at every stage of the case chances appear for continuances and motions and arguments, so December really represents only the theoretical time. The year 1897 will be well started beifore the execation takes place, and if a new trial be granted the end is not in sight at all. A REMARKABLE OROWING HEN. Attends Strictly to Business, Even if She Does Imitate the Rooster. Crowing hens may come to bad ends eveutually, just as whistling girls are sup- posed to do, but a London Field corre- spondent gives some facts on the subject that seem to disprove the peculiar notion. The correspondent had three pullets in 1893 which began to lay eggs in Novem- ber. Dauring the year ending on October 81, 1844, the three had laid 580 eggs in spite of the fact that one of them wasa crowing hen. The next vear 510 eggs con- stituted the record. Not even severe weather could stop them from laying. The poultry man thought that he would raise some chickens from the three hens | and put a rooster into their yard. ““We now have a ridiculous concert,” the breeder writes. *‘The cock leads off in his full voice, and the hen follows with a shrilt falsetto, with variations much out of tune. Sull she lays, ana on two days last week the three laid six eges each day. I hope to get the fanciers at poultry shows to give prizes tocrowing hens in the near future.” Varions sportsmen’s papers tell of drum- ming hen partridges (ruffed grouse),horned does, and other male characteristics in varions individuals of Mother’ Nature's Some nf the naturalists are wondering if the new women have not in- fected their imitative sisters in the lesser world with their own progressive spirit. “THE CALL” RACING CHART. alifornia Jockey Club's Spring Meeting, Bay District Track.

Bookmaker George Rose's brown colt Ruinart, who captured the last race on the card at the Bay District yesterday, start- ing an odds on choice, saved the favorites from absolute defeat. In all of the other seven events run the first choices failed and the members of the pencilers’ brigade laying odds in the ring went home very fat in purse ana pocket. Many of the vinners were quoted at odds termed juicy in turf circles, but none were backed very extensively. The crowd was the largest of the week and the more enthusi- astic would call the betting fierce. The weather was delightful for racing purposes, but the track was hardly keyed up to concert pitch, being a trifle slower than on former occasions, when polished up for record-breaking purposes. Undoubtedly the best performance of the day was thatof Dura, a speedy cbestnut daughter of Racine from the imported mare Berna. Picking up 110 pounds she started a 214 to 1 second choice for the five- furlong dash for two-year-olds, and ina drive beat The Roman out a head in the fast time of 1:01);. Howard 8, who was backed down from fours to 7 to 5 favorit- ism, ran well until straightened away in the stretch, when he stopped as though struck with a brick, finishing outside of the money. There was some great switching about done during the betting on the mile handi- cap with a field of five starters, With top weight up, 116 pounds, the books chalked Beliicoso upa 7tob choice, but he went begging and 2 to 1 was obtainable |as he went to the post. The big plunge was made on Yankee Doodle, who was sent outa 9 to5 choice backed down from threes. The third choice, St. Lee, destined to Le the sur- prise. With Flashlight at his head, Belli- coso cut out the running to the stretch. Gradually Yankee Doodle slipped to the front and appeared to have the game won, but in the final sixteenth was easily out- footed by St. Lee, who beat him out two | lengthsin 1 0Old Joe Cotton held sway in the betting oa the opening five and a half furlong spin, with ten rucin% the flag, but ex- hibited a lamentable lack of speed, never getting near the front. Martin Bergen astride the 10 to 1 shot, O’Fleeta, brought bis_mount up nearing the end and won | easily from Johnny Capron, another out- | sider. The race that followed was over the same | distance, with another field of ten facing | the issue. The closing odds showed Or | gon Eclipse at 3, a slight choice over Sil- ver State. Overlooked at 6to 1, Ricardo passed Silver State and Red Bird the last | furlong, passing the wire a handy winner, | with Silver te in the place and the fa- | vorite third, A mile and a sixteenth run that was | fourth on the programme proved a rare | betting proposition, all of the starters re- | ceiving more or less support. When the | horses’ were called out $ to 1 was laid against both Little Cripple and Warrago, | ! in demand. As | | with Strathflower next the stretch was reached, at whicn point | Warrago, Tar and Tartar and San Luis | Rey were heading thevan, the result was | still in donbt. Weber, on Little Cripple, made a short turn into the stretch and was soon in | front, but hardiy had he made his first point when Uncle Giles made a fine spurt, | at the wire by two lengths in 1:49). The winner went to the post at odds of 9 to 1. Phil Siebenthaler’s Sea Spray was heav- ily played to win the six-furlong run that followed, but slovenly ridden by Snider, was beaten out three parts of a length by White & Clarke’s Commission, the 334 to 1 second choice in the ring. Another mile and a sixteenth run fol- lowed this sprinting affair. Once more was Rebellion made a favorite, being sent into the starter’s hands 22 to 1 choice, 4| with Long Lady and Instigator the next most fancied. "When the barrier was raised Tommy Butleron the 5 to 1 chance, = : Belle Boyd, went out in the lead and made | a runaway race of it, winning ridden out a length before Instigator, wuo had been running in second position. The favorite ‘was third, but a bead further away. The last event of the day, a five and a half furlong sprint, was a cakewalk for the 1to 2 favorite Ruinart, who got away last of his fieid and won in a common canter. The 50 to 1 chance Nell Flaherty Jasted long enough to beat Tim Murphy a head for the place. TRACK AND PADDOCK ITEMS, Ten bookmakers cut in yesterday. Galen Brown, who handled the horses of A. B. Spreckels with such marked suc- cess, leaves to-night for St. Louis. Galen’s | crack racer, Libertine, is already on the other side of the Rockies, but will not be started until his arrival there. Johnny Capron, who finished second in the opening race, was at one time as good as100 tol in the betting. He was quite extensively backed for the place and show. Young Coady must have been suffering from that “‘tired feeling’’ yesterday. His ride on the 6 to 5 choice, Joe Cotton, would not indicate that he was in any great hurry to get back to the wire. Old Joe must certainly be on the retrograde when he cannot get a chalk-mark among such & field of *‘dogs.” Comedian Ferris Hartman looked sad last evening and found it hard to raise a smile. His filly Una Que Amo was a well- played starter in the opening scramble, and her friends say that with a better start there would have zeen nothing to it. There was a very hot tip out on Flash- light to win the mile bandicay, and a wild scramble was made to get aboard when 20 to 1 was marked up. He ran shod with bar plates, and looked to have a chance to the stretch, when the field ran over the top of him. He is many pounds from his three-vear-old form. Snider suffered from a lapse of conscious- ness during his tour astride Sea Spray, the favorite for the sixth race. When he was finally revived Commission was in front of him and his mount was beaten out driving. JEFF DAVIR, The Great Confederate as Seen by a Member of His Cabinet. In private life and in the family and social circle Jefferson Davis was one of the most pleasant and genial men Iever knew. As gentle and tender as a woman, he pos- sessed an enlarged knowledge of the sci- ences, which always made him instructive. His state papers were characterized by erudition. In his official capacity he was finided by a strong sense of duty and he ad little toleration for that class of men who were much given to talk, but who had little real information to communicate. It is likely that such is the class who assumed that he harsh and self-willed. ‘When a question came up tor considera- tion it was his habit to-exhaust all avail- able sources of information, whether from gersons or from documents, and when this ad been done and a decision reached, that was an end of the question with him. There are some things illustrative of the character of Mr. Davis not generally nd passing Cripple easily, beat him out | FANCY DRESS G00DS! To-morrow will be a gala day for fancy dress materials.

When General Grant was moving his army down the Mississippi below Vicksbure, Mr. Davis was notified that his Briarfield plantation and large property would fall into Federal hands and was advised to send and have the movable [-ropertr moved out of danger. To this he replied that the Presi- dent of the Confederacy could not afford to empioy men to take care of his private property. When he was advised that the Federal army was moving on Jackson, | Miss., and that his home in Hinds County and his valuable library would fall into Federal hands, he made the same reply. As a consequence, he lost all his property | at both places, inclnding his negroes. I ent at both conversations, and his true position in this matter has never been in print.—Recollections of John H.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 15, 1896. To tne United Brewery Workmen’s Union of the Pacific Coast—GENTLEMEN: In reply to the oral proposition submitted to the %mwen' Pro- tective Association at aregular meeting beld May 8, 1896, by the secretary of your associa- tion and Messrs. McArthur and Thurman of the San Francisco Labor Council, we present the following proposition which' the under- siined brewers, malisters and commission mAltsters agree to abide by from this date. Permit us to say first that we have come to this conclusion after caceful consideration and after amdgin: the situation at our breweries and malthouses. A careful canvass among our employes has convinced us that they are all satisfied with their positions, wages and hours of labor and the treatment they receive from the proprietors, and that & very large majority of them do not favor being forced to join any workmen’s union._ We therefore propose, if it is satistactory to you, to cotinue to pay all our employes weges as follows: Employes at keg-washing. Employes at kettle. Employes in cellars. Employes in ferment-room . Employes as maltsters Employes as coopers. Employes as hoop-d Employes as stablemen. Employes as apprentices. Any extra compensation gnld to first cellar- men, first kettlemen, first fermenting-room men, first coopers, first washnouse men and first Stablemen, if employed as such, shall be agreed updn by the employer and the employed. Nine hours to constitut xe\fiulu days’s work. Six days a_week’s work. Wages to be spaid every sttnrd;g. All Bunday and holiday work to be abolished, except when absolutely neces- sary, and when necessary to be paid for at one fifty-fourth (1-54) of a week’s wages for each hour employed. No employe :hnu%e required to work on Sunday, holidey or overtime for more than three hours at any one time, and maltsters shall not be required to work after 11 A. M. on Sundays. We agree to furnish beer ;o all employes free of charge during working ours. ‘We further agree not to dischar for advocating union principles or for joining any workmen's union. Our rules against boy- cotting, however, will be strictly enforced, ana &ny man using the boycott will be discharged from our employ. The wages herein named are $2 any man T week more than the average wages paid in other cities of the United States, and wg".lle from ten to twelve hours is considered a day’s work in other parts of the United States, we will not require more than nine hours.
