THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, JUNE 18, 1896. DANIEL TOLD ABOUT *RACKETS,” Detective Wood’s Assistant on Miss Ashley’s Strong | Work. | HER COUNTER CHARGES. Baldwin’s Fair Accuser Says O’Kefe Played Her False. ASSUMED SOME NAMES. | The Big Betrayal Case in the Superior Court Continues Its Spicy Developments. ! Daniel J. 0'Kefe was again the central | figure in the Ashley-Baldwin suit yester- | day. He told of “‘strong work,” “rackets” and other Bostonese diversions which were engaged in at the different places where Miss Ashley lodzed in “The Hub."” | Early in the day a couple of letters were | introduced in evidence. They were from | Lillian A. Ashley to “Dear Daniel,” and | the envelopes were addressed to D. J. O'Kefe. It seems that after the death of the employer, Miss Ashley was inclined | to be solaced by the clerk, but, according to his testimony, Daniel was not disposed to play the role of consoler. Following are the contents of the letters introduced : Friday eve., November 14. Dear Daniel: You have not come up as you promised, but try to realize that you are very busy and much grieved. However, you must know how I do depend upon you, and how and when to act in the matter of this note. Being | ili as I am, I am so needy and dependent that | most any Judge would allow my claim if there | is anything left. If not, try to arrange a meet- | ing with her or his nephew. Manage it some way, Daniel, tor you know the circumstances | best. Please let me hear from you soon or see you. Also I wish you would give me the ad- dress of the one that has charge of the settling | of poor Wesley’s affairs after you leave, or give me the addres of his nephew. Believe me, very grateful to you for past kindness and in | much sorrow, sincerely, MIss L. A. ASHLEY. P. S.—Have seen Dr. Whitmore and he is very kind. He will attend me just the same as before.

Also let me know if you change your address. With kindest regards believe me, Miss L. A. A For some time after the demise of Wes- ley T. Balch O’Kefe did not, despite the pressing invitations sent him, go to see Miss Ashley. Then one day he met heron a streetcar. In the meanwhile Daniel had | gone to work for J. R. Wopd, the detec- | tive. Miss Ashley had evidently heard of | this, for she accused him of telling | naughty stories about her, and informed him that if he did so it would be the| worse for him. She accused O'Kefe of | having stolen money confided to him by | Balch for delivery to her, and said she | had letters from Balch that would prove | this. O’Kefe says he denied the accusation.i He was then earning $8 per week as a de- | tective, and told of a number of people he shadowed, though what great crimes he ran to earth remain to be heard from. The testimony now went back to the | glad days when Balch was alive. O’Kefe told of the different places where he had | visited Miss Asbley while acting as a messenger-boy. He testified that while her headquarters were at Mrs. Melville’s she complained that there was ‘‘strong work’’ going on there at night. When asked what he meant by strong work, the young man from Boston lucidly | explained, ‘“Rackets.” “‘Rackets?” repeated the puzzled ques- tioner. ‘‘Yes, beer rackets,” replied the witness. “They went out for beer and had a good time.” explained that Wood, Barnes and himself came to California under assumed names and concealed themselves in Oakland that Miss Ashley’s attorneys might not dis- cover them. O'Kefe is getting more than $8 per week. He testified that $3 per day and expenses is peirig allowed him. He did not know until it came out in court that Wood is to receive $2500 for his work in Baldwin’s bebalf. The case closed for the day with Daniel still on the stand. Pigeon-Shooting Combine. The Pacific Tournament Association was yesterday incorporated by H. B. Houghton, A. H. Whitney, T. R. Barney, L. P. Bolander and George D. Greenwood.

TURNEE, THE TOUGH. He Is Convicted of Assault With Intent to Rob. Clarence Turner was yesterdav convicted of assault with intent to commit robbery. This is his second trial on the charge, the jury baving disagreed the first time. Turner is a young fellow, only 20 years of age, but he is about as low a rowdy as has been seen in San Francisco for a long time. On January 13, late at night, Turner went to the room of 0. T. Dyer in the Baltimore Hotel and presented a dummy note so as to get him ont of the house. Dyer refused to accompany him and started toward a gas jet to read the note. As he did so Tur- ner hit him with a slungshot, and as Dyer lay on the floor threatened to kill him if he did not give up his valnables. Turner escaped, but was captured in Oakland. When he was arrested a coupie of masks and a pistol were found in his possession. Turner will be taken before Judge Belcher for sentence on Saturday. - — MOUNT DIABLO COAL. The Manufacturers’ Association Wants It Used in the State Prisons. The Manufacturers’ and Producers’ As- sociation is making a strong fight to get the prison directors to use California coal in the mills at San Quentin and earnestly | recommends the Contra Costa coal in the following letter to the directors: Gentlemen: We have been informed that your honorable board has deferred consideration of | the bids for coal and hardware for the prison at San Quentin until next Saturday. Among the bids for coal there will be found one from a California company, namely, the Pittsburg Coal Mining Company. The cosl put on the market by this company, besides being a Cali- fornia product, is, we are informed, of as good if not better quality than any coal used in this market, and if your tests have proven such to be the case, as we have no doubt they have, we would most respectiully urge that you award this contract, if the bid is as low or lower than other bids for an equal quality of coal, to the California coal company. el DANIEL GIOVANNINI DEAD. An Italian Pioneer Passes Away at His Home in This City. Daniel Giovannini, one of the Italian pioneers of California, passed away last Saturday at his home, 808 Pacific street. He came to California in 1858 and is said to be the first man that ever burned char- coal in Sonoma County. His furuaces were located near what is now known as Laguna- station. In this line of business he met with great success and made a large fortune. He was an intimate friend of General War- field, De Montague and other well-known Californians and always took a warm in- terest in the career of the Republican party. His funeral took place from Universal Hall yesterday morning at 10 o’clock. AN ERRING LIEUTENANT. Rena D. White Secured a Divorce From Chester A. Judge Sanderson yesterday granted Rena D. White a divorce from Chester A. White. Chester A. White is the young lieuten- ant of the revenue service who several months ago deserted his wife while she lay sick in bed and eloped with a chorus girl from the Baldwin Theater. He is now in Boston, where he is gen- | niless. The decree was granted on the ground of cruelty. CONVENTION OF NOTABLES The American Society of Civil Engineers in Their An- nual Session. Interesting Subjects of Discussion. Visitors Will Be Royally Entertained. The twenty-eighth annual convention of the American Society of Civil Engineers will be held in this City at the Academy of Sciences, the sessions to begin June 29 and continue until July 3. The time will be occupied in reading and discussion of papers by eminent members of the en- gineering profession on subjects that are especially interesting to Pacific Cosst en- gineers. The American Society of Civil Engineers is the most powerful body of the profes- gion in the world, and numbers above 2000 members from every State in the Union. Only the most eminent of the profession are admitted to membership, and to be a member of the society is an honor eagerly coveted by every engineer. For the first time in the history of the society the annual convention is to be held west of the Rockies, and the promise of a large attendance upon this occasion is very encouraging. The California Association of Civil En- gineers has anoim.ed a committee, con- sisting of G. F. Allardt, Lyman Bridges, Howard C. Holmes, E. J. Molera, Her- mann Kower and Luther Waggoner, to receive the distinguished visitors and to arrange a series of receptions and jaunts during the convention, and the Technical Beciety of the Pacific Coast has appointed a committee consisting of its president, George W. Dickey, and Past Presidents John Roberts and C. E. Grunsky, to co- operate in furnishing hospitality and en- tertainment for the guests. A committee of the local members of the society, consisting of George E. Gray, Colonel George H.:Mendell, W. G. Curtis, James D. Schuyler and William B. Storey Jr., has charge of the general arrange- ments. Plans for the entertainment of the dele- gates consist of a .filnd public reception at the Palace on Monday evening, June 29; and on-successive days a trip to the fortifications around the bay and other points of interest will be made, and one day will be_spent in an inspection of the big Spring Valley dam at Crystal Springs Lake. Stanford University and Lick O servatory will also be visited, and Mon- terey, Santa Cruz and the Big Trees in- spected. The papers to be discussed at the con- vention are all upon subjects peculiarly interesting to engineers of the codst. A paper on the ‘“Flow of Water in Wrought or Cast Iron from Twenty-eight to Forty-two Inchesin Diameter” wi"rbe read by Isaac W. Smith. A. D. Foote has prepared a paper on “A Water Power and Combyreased Air Trans- mission Plant for the Company, Grass Valley,” which is pro- fusely illustrated, and other papers on *‘The Condition of Steel in Bridge Pins,” by A. C. Cunningham’’; “Improving the ntrance to a Bar Harbor by a Single Jetty,” by Thomas W. Symons; and ““The Construction of a Light Mountain Rail- road in the Republic of Colombia,” by E. J. Chibas, will be read and discussed. Other subjects will also be treated and generally considered. The gentlemen comprising. the local committees have determined to leave nothing undone to render the convention memorable in the annalsof the society, and are exerting themselves uuidnonrs{y to that end.

Emigrants Prefer Hawaii to This Country for Laborers’ Chances. AMERICA JAPAN'S FIRST LOVE. Enormeus Chinese Indemnity Fund to Be Adjusted Through Lon- don Banks. T. Hosho, formerly a member of the Japanese Parliament, but recently ap- pointed Minister to the United States, 1s at the Palace on his way to Washington. Grammar School, published in yesterday's CALL, the name of Miss Mazy Ellen Hottua 0f 2712 Bush street was inadvertently omit- ted. The young lady was one of the highest in her class, standing among the highest ten in scholarship. HE GOT SIX MONTHS. Jacob Unna Refused to Testify Against H. Hirsch, His Book- kesper. Herman Hirsch, bookkeeper for Jacob Unna, 115 Front street, was arrested on May 16 on complaint of his employer for felony embezzlement. Hirsch had been bookkeeper for about two years and was taken sick & week or two before his arrest. During his absence it was aiscovered that he had been collect~ ing accounts and had not entered the amounts in his cashbook. An expert was called in, and when Hirsch returned te the office from the hospital he was placed under arrest. ¥ The case has been continued from time to time, and yesterday morning Judge Low insisted upon going on with it. Hirsch said he was wifiing to plead guilty to mis- demeanor embezzlement. The complain- ing witness wanted the case dismissed and refused to testify against his bookkeeper. The Judge then sentenced Hirsch to six months in the County Jail. Unna afterward admitted that Hirsch's defalcations would exceed $3000. —_——————— AN AGED CRIMINAL. Seventy Years Old and Convicted Four- teen Times. Alexander Thompson, a white-haired man of 70, yesterday pleaded guilty in Judge Belcher's court to the charge of burglary. Thompson has been a thief for over thirty years. He has thirteen prior conyic- tions against him in California alone. The first record of punishment meted out to T. Hosho, the New Japanese Minister, Now on His Way to Washington, [Sketched from life by a “‘Call” artist.] He is accompanied by his wife and child. The new Minister is 8 middle-aged man, and is slightly disposed to flesh. This is his third visit to the United States, and he speaks very good English, although with the diplomatic hesitancy of one who would not have his meaning misconstrued. He discussed Japan’s commercial inter- course, the competition Americans fear | from her manufactures, emigration, the award of contracts for five new battle- ships and the large indemnity fund due | irom China as a result of the recent war. | The Japanese, he says, have a very kindly feeling for Americans, because the United States was the first country to en- ter into fair and equal treaty relations with them. Were prices equal he thinks Japan would favor this country in buyin, raw materials and other goods, but senti- ment is not a greater force in Japan than it is in America when it comes to 2 plain business transaction. He says that the Americans do not cater to Japanese trade or any other foreign trade as do the Eng- lish and the Germans, who take pains to manufacture goods especially to suit their foreign customers. “We would prefer,”” he remarked, “to buy in America, but we can get materiale much cheaper in England. 1f you made i your prices less we would buy here. You | are our greatest customer, but we buy | from you more than you buy from us.” | Minister Hosho considers: the competi- tion of Japanese manufactures with Ameri- can goods only a scare without anvthing in his country to warrant it. There has not been, he declares, any great manu- facturing impulse since or because of the war. He has read in American vapers of American factories in Japan where very | cheap watches are made, but at home he could not learn that there were any such factories. Japan is manufacturing a large number of bicycles and at a low price, but they are frail and would not be received in America. In fact when the Japanese want good machines they buy them in London or in America. China is Japan’s market for small manufactured goods. Fewer Japanese are emigrating to Amer- ica. They do not realize what they once expected from the venture. Hawaii gets most of the emigrants. Mr. Hosbo thinks that about five years hence all parts of japan wili be opened freely to foreign travelers without pass- ports. Treaties with different countries are being slowly revised to that purpose. The Government decided last year to build about five battlsships. Mr. Hosho was in Parliament at the time. Japan is not prejudiced in favor of any particular country as the builder of her warships. Where her designs can be followed for the least money, there tha contracts will probably be awarded. Mr. Hosho saysthe him was when he was convicted in the Police Court, May 26, 1865. Most of his time since then has, been passed in jail, ;:g(s last conviction being on September 21, 95. On March 20 of this year, Thompson was captured in the apartments of Julia Flynn, 1113} Leavenworth street, and for this crime he will be sentenced on Saturday by Judge Belcher. DETECTIVES ARE AT SEA They Can Find No Clew to the Murderer of Mrs. Zieger's Child. The Woman Will Be Examined by a Police Judge and May Go Free. Mrs. Martha Zieger, the woman who has been detained at the City Prison since Fri- day last under suspicion of being the mur- derer of her new-born child on December 7, 1895, will 'be taken before a Police Judge to-day or to-morrow, and if the prosecut- ing attorney, after hearing the facts of the case, should think the evidence sufficient to draw a complaint against the woman, she will be charged with the crime of mur- der. Otherwise she will be discharged and exonerated. Mrs. Zieger, as stated a few days ago in THE CALL, calmly confessed the crime to a reporter. However, as the police have not possession of the corpus delicti, and as nobody has seen the child excepta man named Sutter, Chief Crowley has decided to submit the case to one of the prosecut- ing attornaeys. Officer Ryan and Detective Dillon, who have been working on the case since the arrest of the woman, have so far made but very little progress, as they could not find any trace of Sutter, who is wanted in con- nection with the murder of the child. Sutter disappeared on the day of the ar- rest of the woman and has not been seen or heard of since in this City. Chief Crowley, in speaking of the case last night, said: “It seems to me that the officers should have made a report to me about the case by this time, as the woman has been in prison ever since Friday last. So far they have not found Sutter, and as there is mno direct evi- dence of the guilt of the woman I will submit the case to one of the prose- cuting attorneys. Nobody has seen the model of the battle ship Oregon was on j baby, and the only witness we have is the exhibition in the War Department at Tokio. He inspected the Oregon yester- day with Mr. Scott, and is very much pleased with her. In the Minister’s party are two Japanese bankers. They are going to London on business connected with the Chinese in- demnity fund of 2,300,000,000 taels due Japan as pavment for the expense she in- curred in the recent war. T.Yamanatorepresents the National Bank of Japan at Tokioand K. Sonoda, president of the Specie Bank of Yokohama, is his colleague. They purpose to make arrange- ments for the disposition of these funds in England, the payments being due in Ber- lin and London in gold. China hasalready Ynid 1,300,000,000 taels, or half of the total indemnity, together with 300,000,000 taels for the return of cer- tain territory captured dnrln{ the war. The adjustment of this business is a delicate matter, and one. if not carefuily conducted, that would affect the monetary conditions of the world through a change in the exchange rates. Minister Hosho will start on Friday for Washington. How long he will remain there he cannot say, as he is not appointed for any definite time. Inadvertently Omitted. In the list of graduates of the Hamilton woman herself. There is still hope that we will find Sutter, and if we should suc- ceed, he will surely be charged with murder. *“The woman is confined in prison for the last six days without being charged, and I therefore think that to-day some- thing should be done in her case.’’ Mirs. Zieger spoke as coolly and calmly about her case as on the day of her arrest. She positively does not. ru{ize the heavy charge which she may be called upon to answer. She said: “I only wish that they would watch that man Sutter, as he is responsible for ail my trouble. My hushand is to blame that Sutter has escaped, as he has told him he would cause my arrest. Sutter took the hint and escaped. It is not impossible that he may kill himself, as he has# pis- tol.

PAY CAMEIRREGULARLY Both the French and Italian Missions Have Known Hard Times. EXPENSES TO BE CURTAILED. The Sick Pastor Says It Is Unjust to Send Him Away Without Due Notice. For some time past the San Francisco Presbytery has had two foreign ministers on its hands whose meager salaries ave drggged behindhand in a way that was painful, both to the pastors who were sup- posed to subsist upon them and to the presbytery, which was supposed to re- ceive the salaries from the various Presby- terian City churches, each of which had undertaken a certain amount of indebted- ness .in supporting the French and Italian missions. Rev. Eugene Dupuy is pastor of the French mission and Rev. G. Vinai was brought from South Carolina a couple of years ago by the San Francisco Presby- tery to take charge of the Italian work. Mr. Dupuy is supposed to receive $250 from the San Francisco Presbytery and a like amount from the Oakland Presbytery. Oakland has no indebtedness in the Ital- ian work, but the San Francisco Presby- tery is supposed to give the Italian pastor $600 a year, though the board of missions in New York supplies some of the amount. Neither of the pastors has had his salary paid with that regularity which marks the cheerful giver. Some of the churches have paid up regularly, others have not, and the pastors have had at times to bor- row from their friends or live on credit. Rev. Eugene Dupuy.- when questioned on the subject yesterday, admitted that so far this year he had lived on hope and the Italian pastor said there had been months at a time when he had to depend on the clemency of his landlady for board and lodging. Oakland Presbytery still owesa large slice of-last year’s salary to the French mission. On Monday last the San Francisco Pres- bytery held a session with closed doors, at which the subject of the foreign pastors and their salaries was thoroughly argued out. The pastoral year begins with Jjuly, and Rev. F. R. farrand, moderator of the presbytery, urged in the most emphatic way that the churches should pay up their obligations to the foreign work be- fore that date. Calvary, St. John’s, Westminster and the Howard Church had nothing to re- proach themselves with in that respect, but Rev. F.R. Farrand urged that the other churches should follow their ex- ample. There was a somewhat warm dis- cussion, and it was finally resolved that the money should be raised by July 1. It was also resolved to abolish all expense in connection with the Italian mission by dismissing the pastor, Rev. G. Vinai, and turning the work over to John Russell, who would continue it gratis. This summary action has given rise to considerable feeling among Rev. Mr. Vinai's friends. The Italian pastor is at present sick in bed at his home, 1000 Lom- bard street. When seen yesterday he was at first disinclined to talk, but finally said: “I am strongly averse to notoriety, but for the sake of my wife and children I shall see that justice is done. You cannot discharge & man in a moment, when he has a family, and I am a foreigner with scarcely a friend here, and they brought me 3000 miles. *‘Before coming to San Francisco I was pastor and director of fifty Waldensian families in South Carolina. I would never have left that position if I had known what I was coming to, for a man with wife and children must have the means to live, and the salary toere, though small, was regularly paid by the Congregational Board of Home Missions. 1 left my position be- lieving they were truthful. On the way I was delayed at Los Angeles by the strike and had to stay at a hotel till my small means were almost gone. When I got to San Francisco what was my surprise to find that the presbytery had no money. “However, I said nothing, but lived on credit from July till November. One day in that month a Mr. Logan, I think his name was, of the Young People’s Society, came and gave me $6 50; it was a small sum, after living so long on nothing, but I took it and said nothing.” The pastor stated that there had been months at a time, when if it had not been for the kindness of his landlady, he would have been without the wherewithal to live, but he went on laboring at his mis- sion and taking his salary when it came. Lately he has suffered from a racking cough, and the committee of the presby- tery, consisting of Rev. J. Cumming Smith, Rev. Mr. Jenks and Rev. F. R.Farrand, have urged him to.take a month’s vaca- tion, but he refused to leave his work, and having received no salary since January he had not the means to go away and pro- vide for his wife and three children during his absence. It 1s on account of his wife and children that the pastor’s suaden dismissal has broken him completely up in health. He looks like a man on the verge of con- sumption. “I am a foreigner, almost without friends here, and am oo sick to take any steps at present,’’ he said yesterday, ‘‘but if they do not do their duty I wiil do mine. The wbrk was so promising, too. We had eighteen converts last Pentecost, and there were ninety-five scholars in the school last Sunday.” Rev. F. R. Farrana stated yesterday that the churches would pay up all their indebtedness before July. *Dr. Mac- kenzie's church, for instance, has had a number of other charities on hand, but it will pay up. We dismissed the Italian pastor to curtail the expenses and because ‘we were not thoroughly satistied with the Italian work. As for arrears, we are not bound to pay oftener than every six months, and the pastoral year does not be- gin till July 1.”” About the only European monarch whose life is not insured is the Czar.
