16 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JULY 8, 1896. THE DRURKS D THE ARK CELL Something More About Po- lice Methods in Cali- fornia Street AND WHO IS TO BLAME. Chief Crowley Calls For a Re- port From all the Officers in Charge. WHAT THE PATROLMAN DOES. Other Instances of Gross Laxity of Discipline and Indifference Con. cerning the Prisomers. Chief of Police Crowley, after reading the story in THE CALL of yesterday morn-. ing concerning the shortcomings of the California-street station as a station and They see the prisoners as they pass in! nigi:tly procession through that office and past their window. Only one of the three station officérs is on duty at any one time. A prisoner being brought into the station, this officer is at his post behind the desk making his record of the case in the books. The patrolmen whe bring the prisoner in generally do the rest. After the prisoner is searched and the record made they do witih him as this officer directs. It is the arresting officer who neglects to put the board flooring down when he throws & helpless prisoner into the dark cell where the floor is covered with water. Itis the arresting officer who, when the “drunk’’ ceils are filled, opens the door and roughly tosses in a new prisoner upon the prostrate forms of the others, causing them often to rise up as a riotous body tearing at each other like wild animalsand requiring half a dozen officers to quell the disturbance. It was the arresting officer who lifted a young man off his feet and threw him to the floor with such violence the other night asto render him insen- sible. These officers in charge are doubtless bumane men—so are they all humane men. They may have only indifferent knowledge of these. Chief Crowley him- self was reported not long ago as saying that he did not know of a gambling place in operation in the City. It is quite pos- sible that these officers did not sce these things here spoken of, but others did— that is certain. The station officer frequently goes up- stairs and the turnkey sits out in the next room to read his paper and then things go on that neither of them see.

There are five officers at the station, Lieutenant Fred Esola and Corporal Ayers in charge, and Corporal Burke and Patrol- men White and Bowlen station and book- ing officers. These officers Chief Crowley is about ready to swear by, so far as their efficiency as officers and the humane character of the men are concerned. The responsibility of these officers for the conditions described is rather in allow- ing them than in perpetrating them. None of these officers directly inflict the brutality upon the prisoners that has been described. They do not smack a drunken man’s face or twist his ears to rouse him from hLis stupor sufficiently to enable him to give his name, They do not throw water into the dark cell and then drop and lock a stupid ‘‘drunk” or a fighting “‘drunk’ in its blackness or its wetness withqpt even the board flooring laid down as a protection against rheu- matism. They do not drag men and women prisoners down the stairs by the shoulders, their legs and feet rattling down the steps. They do not beat obstrep- erous prisoners into unconsciousness, they do not tear the clothes off women—but all these things are done there while they are on duty. The duties of Lieutenant Esola and Cor- poral Ayers keep them to the upper office. NEW TO-DAY.

These officers in charge cannot also be charged with'the fact that boys, arrested for no greater offense than violating the 8 o’clock ordinance, are thrust into the same cells crowded with disreputables of the most pronounced character. Whether it is tne fault of those in charge or of the plumber, some space should be given in the reports the Chief has called for concerning the imperfect drainage of the wunderground prison. Quite frequently the stream of water that 18 intended to be kept flowing through the cesspools becomes clogged and the result drives the officers out of the place. The prisoners, however, have to stand it. The women’s cell is on the same front with the others, and all comers have an unobstructed view of the inmates. When Chinatown’s gambling joints are raided the corridor in front of these cells is crowded with thirty or forty Chinamen, who crowd about the bars of the women's cells while themselves waiting to be booked, and comment as they choose. Speaking of the dark cell, it is utterly dark. There is no way of looking in to see how the prisoner fares. Once the door is closed upon him, or her, it is liable to remain so for hours. A French woman, fighting drunk, was put in the cell some nights since, and when she was taken out it was found that she had beaten her bands against the brick walls until two of her finger-nails were completely torn out. These things should be reported npon and corrected. They form an argument, certainly, in behalf of the new criminal building and jail, but much of all this could be corrected now, without waiting for a new buiiding. Lieutenant Esola, in charge of the sta- tion, made a report to Chief Crowley last evening, in which he denied specifically all the allegations made in THE CALL of yes- terday. It denies that any prisoners were ever beaten or that women are mistreated; it declares that it 1s impossible for water to lie on the floor of the cells, as they drain naturally, and also states that the wooden flooring is always placed in the cells. AlL of which goes for so much. It will be interesting to learn what the others will report. What has been stated in Tue CaLL is capable of proof by many wit- nesses. Cars Do Not Stop. Residents of Bernal Heights living in the neighborhood of Powell avenue, are indignant at the refusal of the railway company to have the Mission-street cars stop at Powell avenue. The cars stop at Fair avenueand Precita ave- nue, which are each about 300 feet on either side of Powell avenue, but will not stop even naonclxnll at the laiter crossing. The grade is almost level and the cars ovnfil stop at Powell avenue just as well as at Fair or Precita avenues, and furthermore, the number of people who use Powell avenue to get to their -homes is much greater than those ‘who get off at Precita avenue. residents of the neighborhood of ple stand at to &:o passing car, ¥ractured His Jaw.

Rates will be lower and accommodations better. Among the things in contempla- tion and soon to be realities are reduced grain rates to Vallejo, Port Costa and San Francisco from Stockton and points south, and a steamer passenger service on the San Joaquin between Stockton and San Francisco that will make the run on rail- road time at least, and perhaps in even better time by half an hour. Nearly every day that now passes records some new development tending to prove that the young giant, popularly known as the Valley road, which is stalking up the San Joaquin Valliey. is bold and ' vigi- lant in seeking to accomplish its avowed purpose of unloosing or destroying the tentacles of the ‘“‘octopus,” legally de- scribed as the Southern Pacific Company, from the agricultural, horticultural and other industries of the State, and thus per- mitting the producer to reap at least a fair r:lwnrd for his labor, enterprise and capi- tal. - Scarcely was it able to move its cars along its rails when it entered the field of fierce competition with a hitherto uncon- querable and unmerciful adversary. Rates were cut from all points about twenty miles south of MemetFinw Stockton. In retaliation, for it went beyond self- protection, the Bouthern Pacific put in a reduced tariff from just south of Merced to San Francisco. . And it is to counter this move of the Huntington corporation that the negotia- tions referred to were begun. At this writing there 1s every indication thata satisfactory arrangement will be concluded to-day. ‘When the Southern Pacific cut its rates to Vallejo, Port Costaand San Francisco the charge from Stockton to Vallejo or Port Costa was made 50 cents per ton, and to San Francisco $1, a material reduction from former figures, and at the same time the charge of 10 cents a ton for unloading was abolished. By the schedule that the Valley road proposes to issue to-day, if negotiations are concinded, the rate between Stockton and Vallejo or Port Costa will be 50 cents per ton, and between Stockton and San Francisco 60 cents, and possibly 50 cents. H. J. Corcoran, manager of the Cali- fornia Navigation and Improvement Co: pany, was in town on Monday and held a conference with Trafic Munager John Moss of the Valley road relative to a traffic arrangement that would permit of passengers and freight bein: carried through from San Joaquin Valley points to San Francisco, but he declined to dis- cuss or speak of the matter of rates. In reference to the service his company was prepared o fln he spoke freely, even enthusiasticall f ; ““We are the largest inland water trans- the trip down from Stockton in four hours snd up in about four and a half hours. “The operation of such a vessel has been in mind for some time, and should we make the deal with the Valley road we Hfll hasten the construction of this river yer, “Of course, we are greatly cesirous of coming to an arrangement by which we will co-operate with the Valiey road in competition with the Southern Pacific Company. Such an arrangement would give us’ increased business, and then, again, we are deeply interested in the ulti- mate success of the road, both for the in- creased Ll’onperity it will bring to the val- ley and because we are stockholders in the company. “When the full fleet of our vessels is in service there will be two steamers daily fivedays in the week between Stockton and Ban Francisco. On Saturday and Sunday only one vessel will be operated.’’ It is'reported that the proposed deal will be zlosed to-day. Should this be the case the new rates will become immediately operative. J. H., BARRY FOR CONGRESS. His Friends Will Urge Him to Accept the Nomination, A number of friends of James H. Barry met last evening to consider the matter of sending him to Congress to represent the Fifth District. It was decided by a reso- lutioa to do so, and although Mr. Barry is not a candidate for the honor in the strict sense of the term, his friends believe that he will not disregarda what they be- lieve to be his'duty. The resolution further set forth that al- though he might be nominated from a Repubhican district they believed he would carry it easily. All agreea to support Mr. Barry to their full extent and Ag&ity. In the gathering were representatives from all the districts in the City and one from Santa Clara County. 10 REGPEN THE CHURCH, Rev. W. L Birch, Now of “ Calvary,” Is a Promi- nent Candidate. Week-Day Concerts ani Thursday Services for the Business Men. It looks now as though some decisive steps will soon be taken by the authorities to reopen the First Congregational Church, and the most prominent candidate who is in the field for the pastorate is the Rev. W. L. Birch, Ph.D., at present filling the pulpit of the Rev. John Hemphill, D.D., at Calvary Presbyterian Church. The First Congregational Church has been closed now for some months, and since it has been definiteiy decided by the board of trustees not to sell the property, a general wish for its early reopening has been expressed by the congregation. It is argued that the factienal ieeling arising from the trial of its late pastor, Dr. C. O. Brown, has virtually died out since his resignation and that now no time shouid be lost in bringing the congregation together again under the spiritual guid- ance of some suitable Christian minister. Pastor Birch, who is a comparative stranger, since his arrival in S8an Fran- cisco has visited and inspected the old First Church. He is delighted with its fine acoustic properties, its central loca- tion, etc., and sees in 1t a fruitful field for the service of the Lord. If chosen as its pastor he intendas to introduce, with the sanction of the authorities, & new and practical line of earnest work which will undoubtedly meet the approval of the people. “I have expressed to L. H. Clement, the honorary secretary of the First Congrega- tional Society,” said Pastor Birch, “my willingness to undertake the ministry, subject to the approval of my good friend, the Rev. Dr. Hemphill. I also desire the hearty co-operation of the trustees and members, wko through all its recent troubles have remained loyal to the portation company in California,” he began. *We have eight steamers and six- teen barges which we own. We have been and are now active competitors of the Southern Pacific Company as far south in the Ban Joaquin Valley as Fresno. It is true our vessels run only to Firebaugh, but this gives us the opportunity to bid for Fresno business, and we get consider- able of it, too. “0f late,” he continued, *‘we have been running six steamers between Stockton and San Francisco, and have just decided to put on the seventh. As’ soon as we come to an understanding with the Valley road people we shail put on the entire eight steamers, and also arrange to put on a special passenger boat that will make ;hieLrun as quickly as it is now made by ral “Figures are now being prepared by the Risdon, Fulton and Dn%n iron works for submission to us for a steamer to run not less than twenty mscine miles an hour. This vessel will ntly fitted up with every modern con' ce, and will make church. I suppose that the trustees are naturally somewhat discouraged in conse- quence of their unhappy experiences, and feel reluctant to reopen the church. Still, if they are only willing 1o put their shoul- ders to the wheel and carry iton as it should be carried on, I believe that the church could be regularly filted with men and women who feel the need of Christian cheer and inspiration to fortify themselves against the numerous worldly temptations by which we are all assailed. “Ido not believe in the utility of flam- ing posters upon the church door to sn- nounce the catch-the-eye topics of the Sabbath discourses, but in quiet, earnest, practical work for the relief of the desti- tute and the consolation of the broken- hearted and the erring of this great City. In this way the First ckurch should act in conjunction with Calvary and other allied Christian churches. Should I be honored with the pastorate of the First church it would be my aim, with tke aid of the min- isters of this City and Oakland, to hold regular half-hour Thursday services at noon, or at a convenient hour in the afternoon, for business men, and if possible, to keep the church open all day, for the benefit of anybody who might wish to pass a few moments in quiet meditation or prayer. Ishould be glad, too, if pew rents could be abolished and our sources of revenue be vested in voluntary contributions. In- strumental and vocal concerts of sacred music might be given in the afternoon and evening of every week day by profes- sional and amateur musicians, To these admission should be free and the lecture and class rooms of the church could be used each evening for the moral and phys- ical culture of young men and maidens. The adoption of these methods would, I am sure, make the church a practical blessing to the residents of San Franeisco. As to my own remuneration, I should be content not to take a doilar until all of the expenses of tt e work were paid.” The spiritual affairs of the First Church are vested in the deacons, who select the pastor subject to the confirmation of the congregation, while the business and financial details are under the control of the board of trustees.

Hadi Began Wander- ing When but Fifteen Years of Age. IS NOW JUST EIGHTEEN. The Sdn of a Persian Philosopher Who Believed in Free Will. WAS DISGUISED AS AN ARAB. He Intends to Remain in America for Some Years and Study Medicine. Considerable interest 1s being expressed in local church circles in A. M. Hadi, a young Persian who has just arrived here from the Orient. His history 1s a peculiar one, and savors a good deal of the romantic stories of his native land. ‘When Hadi was only 15 he left home, country and parents to become a wanderer on the face of the earth. Alone and with very little knowledge of the world he vis- ited towns and localities where his coun- trymen were looked upon with distrust, and where Americans and Europeans are careful about venturing. He penetrated into the interior of Arabia, wearing the Arab dress, and though his tongue might bave bejrayed him and he had money on his person, no harm befell him. InOman, where the people are jealous of Persian and other spies, he stayed for some time, passing himseif off as an Arab and no sus- picion attached to him, because he was considered to be only a boy. Hadi has brought letters of introduction to well-known residents of San Francisco, and they say that he left Persia because he haa become a Christian, and his family, which is Mohammedan, was threatened with persecution unless he went back to nis old faith. In person he is slight and boyish-look- ing, with aquiline features and intelligent dark eyes. He speaks good English, and his manners are refined and cosmopolitan. “Yes, my family feit very deeply what they considered the disgrace of my chang- ing my religion,”” he said when questioned 4. M. Hadi, Who Became a Globe- Trotter at 15 Years of Age. on the subject. “My father was what they | call in Persia a ‘wise man,’ something like | your philosophers, and he believed in every one thinking for himself.” Hadi smiled when asked what the wise men of Persia dedicated themseives to teaching. “My father,”” he said, “is a silk manufacturer at Yezd, in Northern Persia. His father, and grandfather, and their fathers for many generations back have made silk in the same town. Every moment of time that my father could spare from his office, he studied the 2000 books of the old time, the wisdom of the Zoroastians and of the Egyptians, and then he began to write books himself. He is the author of several works on phil- osophy. ; “My n-other was much more indepen- dent than most Persian ladies. She thought for herself and acted for herself. It was her wish to make me, too, a philoso- pher, and when I was 13 she took me to Teheran to the Royal College.” It was there that young Hadi first be- came acquainted with Americans, and be- fore six months were over he transferrea himself from the Shah’s College to the American Presbyterian School, a change at which his mother, poor guileless lady, rejoiced because she thought he would learn languages better. She found after- ward, to her dismay, that he had learned Christianity. In Persia this meant disgrace to the whole family, but here the father's phil- osophy came in. He was an old man of nearly 70 and had lost all his children years before the child of his old age was born, but he said, “‘Let the boy think for bimself.” Hadi pleaded to go abroad, to putan end to the troubles, and at last his father appeared, holding letters of credit on aif- ferent banks, which would enable him to travel very modestly. It was in this way that, Hadi says, he started from home, and struck out for Bagdad. For nearly a year he wandered about Syria and Arabia, traveling with caravans and living in caravansaries when in the cities. During that time he was never once molested, and he says that he be- lieves being oniy a child was his great | safeguard, as no one suspected bim of hay- ‘ing much money, and he was too young to be a spy.

The Head of the Wagon Branch of the Service Trusted His Foreman. An internecine upheaval is imminent in Max Popper’s branch of the mail service. Mr. Popper has the contract for carting | the mails from the main office to various points of delivery, steamer landings, etc., | gnd in the discharge of said contracts he has occasion to employ several men. The pending trouble in this branch of the service was caused by the suit lately brought by J. A. Herbert, one of the drivers, against Max Popper, to recover $106 claimed to be owing him as unpaid salary. Herbert's story, as partly set forth in the complaint, is to the effect that the foreman, P. Riley, wanted him to accept $30 in full for his two months’ salary. The balance due, according to the complaint, is $106. But the readable part of the story is tola outside of the complaint and on ac- count thereof some trouble is brewing. Mr. Herbert says that when Riley, the foreman, asked him to take the $30, the latter told him he had the money the night before and “blew it in” and that if he (Herbert) would take the $30 offered and sign the payroll it would be all right, Herbert refused the money and would not sign the payroll. Trouble ensued. Mr. Popper, according to Mr. McKee, at- torne; fl; Herbert, would not believe it possible his foreman could be guilty of such an act, and threatened all sorts of things. He seid it was the first time in all his long business life that he had been sued, and he would surely give somebody a blowing-u % But v.h:: is‘not the worstof it. Mr. Her- bert has many friends among bis former fellow employes, and when he refused to sign the payroll, because, as was asserted, Foreman Riley had ‘‘blown in” a large portion of his wages those friends sympa- thized with him, and 1t was more than hinted that if Herbert is not reinstated there may be a small strike in that branch of the mail service. Attorney McKee said yesterday: *Pop- per says he will ‘do us up’ in the news- papers; that he will have the reporters write us up and otherwise exert his in- fluence againsc my client and his rights. We do not want to make a newsgapgx fight, but if the truth must be tola nothing can keep it back. My chent will swear that Riley told him he had the money to pay off the night before and that he could pay him but because he (Riley) had ‘blown bhimself in’ the night before. We are not accountable for what may follow.’” Riley denies the statement of Herbert in toto. It is likely more will follow. —_—— AFRC-AMERICAN LEAGUE, Memorial Service for Harriet Brocher Stowe to Be Held on Sunday. The Afro-American League held a meet- ing at California Hall, Bush street, Monday night, at which there was a good attend- ance. Before taking up the more important work of the evening a short speech was made by the president, T. B. Morton, who urged the men of his race to vote for Major McKinley, but to pause when it came to cast their votes for the Republi- | can nominees on the municipal ticket. A. A. Collins, president of the Alameda league, followed in the same lines and said that to such Repubiicans as Lincoln, Grant, Sumner, Garrison and Phillips the colored race owed much, and it was their duty to vote for such men. The Rev. H. J. Callis expressed his unbounded admira- tion for Mujor McKinley and dwelt at con- siderable length upon the svlendid record made by him in Congressand as Governor of Ohio. He urged ail to register without delay and to stand shonider toshoulder for their nights. President Morton, at the request of Rev. Mr. Callis, offered a resolution the purport of which was that a memorial service be beid on next Sunday afternoon in the A. M. Zicn Church or Stockton street, between Sacramento and Clay, in mem- lory of the late Harriet Beecher Stowe, and that a committee of six be appointed, three from this City and a like number from Oakland, to make final arrangements for the same.
