It is the ention to make the club the head- arters of the British residents of the | te, with dues so low and the conditions of membership so broad that there will be o valid reason why ail British residents | ould not become members. | The club was originally organized by | Kdvward Oliver, who acts as secretarv,i manager and director and holds the high- | ce of the Sous of St. George in the | b e e first object of the club is to make | all the members good Americans, and in- | duce those who have recently arrived in | this country to become citizens. The pres- | ent admin ation is vested in the foilow- 1 ing board of directors: Edward Oliver, | sccretary: Thomas Ward, treasvrer; | George B. R I, J. E. Orbell, T. D. Brandon, H. W.

THEY SPENT T00 MUCH MONEY. City Offices That Have Overdrawn Their Accounts. THE LAW DISREGARDED. Health Department Has Over-| run Its Limit on Three | Appropriations. | THE GAS BILL IS SHORT. Auditor Broderick Thinks There Is Money Enough, but It Will Have to Be Redistributed. Six of the seventy-one separate funds in the general fund of the City and County created by the appropriation ordinance at the beginning of the fiscal year are at the beginning of this, the last month of the year, already overdrawn. The street-light- | ing fund is in such condition that the | Supervisors have given warning to the| gas and electric light companies to dis- continue their services to the City afterthe 15th of the present month. This means nothing less than that the great City of San Francisco will present to the country the humiliating spectacle of unlighted treets for two weeks with no better ex- | cuse to offer to the curious stranger than that sbe is unable to pay her gas bill. ust why the appropriation should have run short on an amount so easily reckoned and provided against as the gas bill is not easily understood. Auditor Broderick | says it is a case of “doing politics” in the outer wards., ‘‘New lights,” he says, “‘are put up at the demand of every corner gro- cery in districts where a dozen men do not pass during tbe entire night. Electric | 1ights are put up at street crossings where they throw, say, 500-candle-power down the four ways of the two streets, and the City is charged with 2000 candle-power. That's what's the matter with the street lighting account, in my opinion,” he says. Three of the six appropriations that have overrun are those of the Health De- partment. The Health Department ex- penses fund, for which an appropriation was made of $29,900, is now overrun §653 60. The Health Department jails and prisons fund, for whicn an appropriation was made of $1500, is overrun $3610. The hich an approvriation of $6800 was made, is overdrawn $427 49. Of all the departments provided for in the general fund this is in the worst con- dition. The Health Department fund is divided into four funds—Health Depart- ment expenses, smallpox, jails and prisons, and quarantine. The only one of these that is not overdrawn already is the small- pox fund. It originally amounted 1o $4400. It has been drawn upon to the amount of $2560 35, and has therefore to 1ts credit in the treas- ury $1839 65. The separate integrity of each of these funds must be maintained. That is to say, no one of them may be drawn upon for the needs of the other. Farthermore, under the specific language of section 2 of the order, the funds must be divided into twelve parts, and no greater sum than one of these parts shall be used in any one month. &nat stipulation is made to re- strain any tendency to prodigality and so that the money shall last through the year—to Jurovide against feasting one month and a famine the next. In six cases referred to this section of the order has been violated, including the street lighting. In a seventh instance— reporter’s expenses in criminal cases—the appropriation has been overrun already to the sum of $4033 87, but as this is done under an order of the court, it is excepted from direct violation of the order. The other two_violations are compara- tively trifling. They are in the contingent expenses of the City and County Attor- ney,o verrun $9 95,the fund being originally $500; printmfi the municipal report, over- Tun $461 78, the fund originally being $7500. Of all of these as stated, that of the public health is the only department of the Government provided for in the gen- eral fund that is overdrawn in its finances. According to the one-twelfth provision of the order requiring expenditures for every month to be kept within one-twelfth of the total appropriation there should be $1500 in the ealth Department ex- penses fund, instead of being $653 60 over- drawn; there should be $390 in the quar- antine fund instead of its being $427 over- drawn, and there should be twice as much in the jails ;and prisons fund as it now stands overdrawn. This is the time of year when the City’s bookkeepers and financiers are kept hustling in their endeavor to make both ends meet. This time last year con- tractors were refusing to supply provisions to the City’s institutions, its jails and hos- pitals, and this same device was mooted of shutting off the gas and electric lights in the streets for the saving of as much money as that would mean. Anditor Broderick says he does not think any such trouble will arise this year in the matter of provisions. Further, he thinks the way out of any trouble in meet- ing all obligations this year is very sim- ple, and that is in this last month to break down the barrier between the sev- eral funds. Section 4 of the upgropriution order makes it unlawful for the Auditor to audit any bills drawn upon any of the funds in excess of the appropriation made for that fund. % Yesterday he began to “hang up” war- rants drawn in such excess. There are a number of the funds which will not be entirely expended. Theexcess remaining to their credit, he thinks, will meet the amount of the deficiency in those that are overdrawn. The repeal of section | until section 4 is repealed the warrants | organization or | said un-American association that seeks to 4 would give him a permit to audit the de- ficiency Eillu, the money being taken from the surplus of other funds. By this easy method he says all bills may be met. But drawn upon the exhausted appropriations will not be honored. FOR TOLERANCE. Members of the American Women's Liberal League Out With a Declara- tion of New Principles. At a meeting of the executive committee of the American Women'’s Liberal League held yesterday afternoon at their head- quarters, rooms 20 and 21, Nucleus build- ing, the following resolutions were unani- mously adopted: ‘WHEREAS, The people ot California approye the principle of freedom of thought apd reli- gious belief which nas been secured to us at the cost of millions of livesduring a longseries of struggles, and the .constitution of . Cali- fornia provides that “the free exercise and en- joyment of religious profession and worship, without_discrimination or preference, shall forever be guaranteed in this State,” allare agreed that it is with wisdom provided in the constitution of the United States that “no religious test shall ever be required as & qualification to any office or pub- lic trust under the Unifed States”; and whereas, the people of California repudiate the importation from Canada and Europe of an offensive idea that versons should be banded together for the purpose of overthrow- ing the wise provisions of our American con- stitution, and for the further purpose of deny- ing to others because of their religious belief the sacred rights of citizenship and oppor- tunity to live by labor, which'all should possess as freely as the right to think; and whereas, only & few citizens know that the foreign ‘idea embodied in the oath of the American Protective Association reqnires its members to proscribe law-abiding citizens be- cause of their religious belief from political rights, and that the members of said associa- tion 'swear to curtail the rights and s of citizens of the Nation, not only in , but in their oppertunities to exist by their honest toil because of the same reason; | and whereas, the president offsaid A, P. A. has publicly procisimed that the members of that organization voluntarily renounce the right of private judgment as to the qualifications of candidates ior publie office when they become & member of that order; th ore, now be 1t Resolved, That we, the members of the Ameri- can Women’s Liberal League, organized up- hold and maintain religious freedom, publicly | announce their purpose to defeat eyery man, olitical measure who or which are grounded in intolerance, bigotry and injustice. Resy d, further, That we publicly warn all those who openly or secreily affiliate with the arouse religious contention and to proscribe American citizens because of their religious we will use every lawful means in our power to defeat such persons and such in- famous purposes. Resolved, further, That we hereby request all Americans 1o aid us in our work for the peace- ful and lawful exercise of religious convictions and in our efforts for liberality, tolerance and ce. olved, further, That we_invite ail women without regard to creed, to become members of thisleague. HELEN K. WINTE, Secretars. SICRMENTD WY A The Supreme Court Decides That City Bonds Must Be Redeemed. Interest on Overdue Securities, From the Date of Maturity, Must Also Be Settled. The Supreme Uourt has decided that the city of Sacramento must pay the principal on its overdue bonds, with interest there- on, from the date of maturity. W. 8. Kendal made application for a writ of mandate to compel James M. Por- ter, Treasurer of the city of Sacramento, to pay him principal and interest on bonds in his possession. A demurrer to the peti- tion was sustained by the trial court and judgment entered against the plaintiff. The decision of the Supreme Court is: Section 37 of the act of April 25, 1858, au- thorizes the city of Sacramento to issue bonds, not exceeding the sum of $1,600,000, bearing interest at the rate of 6 per cent per annum from the first day of January, 1859, and pay- able at the office of the Treasurer. * * # Efl:a interest on said bonds shall be payable at the oftice of the Treasurer on the first day of Janu- ary of each year. * * * Section 38 provides: The ennual interest and principal of all bonds issued for claims against said city shall be paid from the interest and sinking fund prov{)ded for by this act. ‘Thus it isspecifically declared that the bonds shall bear interest; that the interest shall be payable annually from the date of their issu- ance, and that the interest shall be made a charge upon mdgnyab)e out of & tund created by and designated in the act. There is no sug- gestion or intimation that the interest is to cease upon the maturity of the bond, and it is arule, general and well established), that in- terest-bearing coupon bonds continue to bear Interest after their maturity. * * * Thisis but the application of the general statutory rule allowing interest for the detention of money due, and there can be discerned in this no hardship upon the cn{v. The Treasurer is specially charged with the duty of paying the interesi. If he can make & valid and sufficient showing why that interest should not be paid he may make it in his re- turn, but * * * as it is made the explicit duty of the Treasurer to pay the interest upon these bonds as it becomes due, mandamus may ge employed to compel him to perform that uty. It follows, therefore, that the demurrer was improperly sustained. The judgment is re- versed and the cause remanded, with direc- tions to the trial court to overrule the de- murrer to the petition with leave to the Treas- urer to make his answer or return thereto. The decision is signed by Justices Hen- shaw, .Tnmfile. Harrison and Garoutte. Justices McFarland and Van Fleet file a dissenting opinion which says: The rights of the appellant are not those of a general creditor, and he could not recover upon his bonds ‘a judgment against the cit; for a single dollar. ‘The bouds were accepted under & statute which provides that the city “shall not be sued in any action whatever.” * * We think that in the case at bar the major- ity opinion treats this proceeding as an action against the city by a general creditor, to re- cover judgment for interest on overdue bonds. In that view, however, appellant could not re- cover either the principal or interest of his bonds, for both would be barred by the statute of limitations. Is She Insane? Mrs. Katie Connelly, wife of Dr,T. E. Con- nelly of 1420 Howard street, was arrested last night and taken to the Receiving Hospital to await her examination before the Imsanity Commissioners. She was at the house of her mother, Mrs. O’Connor of 1101 Bryant street. Mrs. Connelly charged her husband with eru- elty. She hed him arrested on Saturday for turning the garden hose on her because she wanted to see her four children, Dr. Connelly says his wife is crazy, neglected her children ;:d was almost constantly in bher mother's use. PLANING FORA BRITISH HOSPITAL, Benevolent Society Has Money and Is After a Site. NO LACK OF PATIENTS. The Consulate Alone Spends $300 a Month on Marine Cases. LONG UNUSED VICTORIA FUND, Might Locate on Rincon Hill—The So- ciety’s New Members—A Brit- ish Headquarters. The British Benevolent Society of Cali- fornia thinks that a British hospital can be maintained in this City. At the monthly meeting of the society held yesterday afternoon at 604 Merchant street the proposition was thoroughly dis- cussed and a committee of five, consisting of business men and physicians, was ap- pointed to collect all necessary data rela- tive to financial prospects, expenses and a location for the buildings. The several members who submitted the idea presented some very plausible figures in support of it. Years ago there was talk of the society’s building a hospital to care for its cases, but an investigating committee reported that only about a haif dozen sick British- ers requiring hospital treatment came to this port in a year, so the matter ‘was dropped. Now, however, according to the Rev. W. ‘W. Bolton, who is honorary secretary of the society and who was yesterday made honorary chaplain, the prospects for a British hospital are very encouraging. - In the last six months the British Consulate has paid out $1800 for marine hos%fll cases at this port, or an average of $300 a month. This does not include private British patients nor resident Britishers sent to hospitals by local British doctors; nor does it include any of the society’s own hospital cases. In addition to these standard sources for patients every British doctor would be re- lied upon to send his surgical cases to the Britisn hospital, and the regular staff hysicians would do likewise. Nor would ritishers alone be the only patrons any more than the French and the Germans are the only patients respectively at the French and German hospitals in this City. So the society thinks scarcity of patients would not be one of the drawbacks to the undertaking. The society has a fund of its own amountme to $3000, which can be used for any purpose desired. In addition to this it holds in trust $3500 as hali of a fund established many vears ago as a nucleus for a British or a Victoria hospital. The St. Andrew’s Society is in charge of the other half. These amounts form the avail- able resources. % On the corner of First and Harrison streets, up on the summit of Rincon Hill, and commanding a good view of the City, is the old McAllister place, on which there are a large house and several cottages. The proyeny is for sale at $3000. The so- ciety believes the place is not unsuited for the focation of a hospital. S8t. Mary’s Hospital is situated in the immediate neighborhood. ourteen new members were elected into the society at yesterday’s meeting, the total membership now being 120. Each of these pays $1 a month dues to support the ‘work of the institution. .During the month of May 485 cases were investigated and acted upon, at a cost of $130 80, for family supplies, medical at- tendance, traveling expenses and other things. Of those aided 172 were new cases, all men but one. The treasurer’'s report showed that $126295 had been received during May, $1096 90 of this amount being a legacy from the late J. H. Dobinson. ~ A balance of $1062 95 remained on hand. The secretary’s report indicated an office balance of $157 70, after $187 70 had been paid out for charity cases and office ex- penses. It was unanimously voted that the so- ciety join the Associated Charitiesin order to secure its valuable assistance in the work of investigating cases applying for aid. - Another matter of importance that created a good deal of favorable discussion was the practicability of having a general British headquarters in this City where both the British Benevolent Society and the recently organized St. Gearge’s Club might bave rooms under the same roof. A committee of five was appointed on literary exercises and social Tecreation, the suggestion being that a banquet be held every three months to encourage British fellowship and to, increase the membership of the Benevolent Society. ‘Wheeled to San Jose. As an instance of the increasing popularity of social wheeling trips is to be recorded one made yesterday to San Jose. A merry party from this City left Alameda at 9 A. ., and, although it 'halted at every wayside inn, reached the Garden City by 2 o’clock. The friends returned on_the cars. They were: Louis Deprat, Miss Etta_ Allen, Miss Alice ‘Allen, Mrs. Rome Harris, Billy Driscoll, Rome Harris and Mike Lynch. ‘When Baby was sick, we gave her Castoria. ‘When she was a Child, she cried for Castoria, When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria, When she had Children, she gave them Castoria, NEITHER SUICIDE NOR FOUL PLAY. Miss Mayne Worrall’s Death Was Due to Nat- ural Causes. NO TRACE OF POISON. The Result of Dr. Morgan’s Analysis of the Weman’s Stomach. FUNERAL OF THE DECEASED. Public Administrator Freese Will Assume Charge of the Dead Girl’s Effects. The sudden death of Miss Mayne Wor- rall, the wealthy and bright vyoung English woman,last Saturday in herrooms at the Palace Hotel, has still some ele- ments of mystery around it. The criminal element, either suicide or murder, has been eliminated, however, by the chemical analysis of the woman's stomach, which was completed yesterday by Dr. Charles Morgan. He has reported back to the Coroner that all the tests, some twenty odd in number that he has made, have failed to reveal the slightest trace of poisonous residue. Under the circumstances, both Coroner Hawkins and Dr. Morgan agree with Dr. Whitney, who was first in attendance upon Miss Worrall when she was taken sick, and Dr. Nathan who conducted the autopsy, that death must have resulted from a spasm of the heart. It is this sudden attack of spasm of the heart in a girl who gave every indication of being in perfect heaith that is mysteri- ous. To her most intimate acquaintances made on shipboard Miss Morrall told how she had never had a pain or anache in her life. She was the only one on the vessel who never even had a moment’s seasickness, and the autopsy revealed that she was in perfect condition even to her heart. The unfortunate woman was buried yes- terday from Porter & Co.’s undertaking parlors in the Cypress Lawn Cemetery. But one_carriage followed the hearse, the deceased baving no friends here excepting James Herrmann, a fellow-passenger on the steamer, and Attorney Brandenstein, ber business agent, Rev. Dr. Walk of Trinity Church, who attended to the religious ceremony, making the third mourner to accompany the remains to their place of rest. The Daughters of St. George, Britannia TLodge No. 7, attended the funeral services in a body and their floral offerings helped to give the plain casket the abppearance that some friends had been left behind by the deceased. There was also a small floral tribute from Ada Rehan, the actress. The latter never had a personal acquaintanceship with Miss Worrall, but her sympathetic heart went out to the dead girl so sud- denly cut off from life. They lived in the same hotel, and what was more the news- papers had published that on the evening prior to her death Miss Worrall had at- tended a performance and had been highly pleased at Miss Rehan’s clever acting. “Father,”” in_blue flowers on an im- mense piliow of white roses, was the offer- ing of the girl’s invalid parent 60C0 miles away. It was placed at the foot of the casket at the suggestion of his financial agent in this City. At the conclusion of the Eg‘iscopnlinn service by the Rev. Dr. Walk, “Nearer, My God, to Thee” was sung by the Daughters of St. George. Among them were: Mrs. Elizabeth Trewin, W. G. D. D.; Mrs. J. B. Staples, president; Mrs, D. K. Farr, Mrs. S. Winterbottom, S. Andrews, Mrs. M. H. Williams and Mrs. B. Meadows. 8. Koenisburg, James Hermann and Mrs. Ernest Williams were the only rep- resentatives of the steamer people who traveled with th?h dead girl. All the others, it is said, have continued on their journey eastward. The natives of Africa gorged themselves with watermelons as early as 2500 B.c. The fruit grows wild all over the country.
