8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JULY 22, 1896. THOSE PERMITS FOR FISTICUFES, The Juggling Methods of the Supervisors Puz- zle Clubs. MANAGERS FEEL UNEASY Matches That Are Now Made May Possibly Be De- clared Off. GALLAGHERISAFTERMITCHELL Joe McAuiffe Will Try Farley’s Wonder{ul Discovery in the Hope of Reducing Flesh. The sporting fraternity cannot under- stand the “in and fout” system as recently adopted by the Supervisors regarding box- ing permits. During a recent meeting ot the board, at the suggestion of one of its members the permit question was referred back to the Health and Police Committee for its re- consideration. In discussing matters pugilistic last evening at a favorite sporting resort a prominent sport asked a well-known mem- ber of the Board of Supervisors for a little information. He desired to know what the Super- visors meant by granting certain clubs permission to hold fistic contests during certain specified months and then chang- ing their views at the meeting following. The Supervisor smiled and gave some evasive answer, which was interpreted by the sport as meaning that the City Fath- ers had far greater interest in boxing en- tertainments than many people imagined, and that, like Davy Crockett, their motto was, first, be sure you're right, then go ahead. It 1s presumed that the Health and Po- lice Committee will pass on the permit question definitely at its next meeting, which will be on Friday. Young Mitchell was notified yesterday that Bitly Gallagher, the pugilist who did not give a satisiactory contest at the last entertainment of the ciub, intended to bring swit against Mitchell for money which the fighior alleged was owing to him. Mitchell appeared to be very uncon- cerned in the matter and said in an off- handed way thatii Gallagher or his attor- ney desired to enter suit against him or the club he represents there was nothing to bar them from proceeding. “1 paid Gallagher's training expenses,” said Mitchell, “‘and according to the agreement which he signed previous to ihe exhibition, that was all and more in fuct that he was entitled to; but if he wants to go to law very bad I shall not be & stumbling olock in his way.” Gallagher says Mitchell did not treat him right in the premises and that his attorney is very sangaine of winning the suit, otherwise ‘be would not have any- thing to do with it. Ivis said that Jeffres has started out on the “pace that kiils” and can be found at any hour of day in saloons the proprietors of which cater to the trade of the sporting element. Peter Maher and his backer are waiting and hoping for a good turn in the tide of affairs pugilistic. Maher has still an idea that the National Athletic Club will smooth matters over with the City Fathers and that permission will be granted to Manager Groom to give just one more en- tertainment. Some memberswf the board are very much opposed to the National Glub and it is doubtful if their old sores w be healed in time to give Petera chance to return to New York with $6000 of California’s gold coin. Connolly, who is looking after the in- terests of the Irish pugilist, says that if all fruit fails and the biz-money proposi- tion is shelved he will enter into an agree- ment with some of the enterprising the- atrical manugers to have Maher spar a limited number of rounds with some local boxer, just to give the sporting people of San Francisco an idea of how Maher has improved within the past few years. Fitzsimmons, Connolly said: faher bad all the best of the mill in the first round, and had it not been for a smash the New Zealander hit him in the break-away from a clinch, Fitzsimmons wonld certainly have left the ring a de- feated man. “‘Maher was cautioned by the referee in the first round agairst clinching, and he endeavored to show the crowd that he did not intend to take any mean advantage of his opponent, and by so doing the New Zealander took an unfair advantage of him the first chance he got. and put it on to the Irishman the moment he let go of long Bob's neck. [ would give a good deal if Peter had just one more chance at the alleged heavy-weight champion, but T'm satistied that he will never again put up his bis ‘props’ in front of the red- headed blacksmith.” The Occidental Club will match “Kid"’ Lavigne to box either Everhardt or Charley McKeever under its auspices, and negotia- tions are now pending between the club and the fighters with that object in view. Supervisor King is a warm friena of Peter Maher and it is said that he will try to induce Maher to accept of a purse offerea by the Occidental Club, Maher is not on friendly terms with Young Mitchell ever since the time the latter ruled against him in a limited contest he engaged in with big Joseph McAulffe at the Grand Opera-house. Maher contends that he should have had the decision, and the old sore against Young Mitchell still remains open. But all those little difficulties between fighters and fight promoters can be adjusted nicely by a little gentle persuasion, tempered with a little softsoap—that healing ma- terial which is so highly prized by rich and poor. Big Joe McAuliffe has actoally started in to reduce flesh. Professor Farley says that his boy can whip any mau who walks under the sun and that two years from now he will be the champion heavy- weight pugilist of the world. “What surprises me most is that all those big fellows who pretend to be great fighters will have nothing to do with Joe,” re- marked old Farley as he doffed his 49 sun- shade and -ran his fingers through the hirsute covering of his pate. ““They will tell you,” continued the pro- fessor, “that McAuliffe is a back number and that e is too fat and all that kind of talk, but you mark my word for it, if Joe ever meets any of those blowbards he will make them wish that they never took up fighting for a living. “My boy is big and fat now, I must con- fess, but after he has taken a couple of bottles of my wonderful discovery, he will look entirely different to what he is how. *‘Between my discovery and handball, I promise you that Joe will enter the ring against Slavin, or any one else for that matter, in condition to fight for a man’s life. Just wait and see for yourself,” and the old professor ran like a deer to catcha passing streetcar. REPUBLICAN RESOLUTIONS. The Forty-Fourth District Club In- dorses Party Leaders. At the regular weekly meeting of the Forty-fourth District Republican Club the following resolutions were unanimously adopted: We, the Forty-fourth District Republican Club, do heartily indorse the actions of our National Committeeman, Hon. John D. Spreckels and Hon. G. Bacigalupi, and pledge them our undivided support. The club is rapidly increasing its mem- bership roll. At the last meeting twelve nore names were added to the roll, making 342 in all. Lzl Scandinavian Republicans. A spirited meeting of the Scandinavian Re- publican Club was held at Washington Hall on Eddy street last evening. The attendance was large, and the attendants were enthusi- astic. Fifty new members were enrolled, meking the total number of names on the club roster considerably in excess of 100. This organization is a straight out-and-out Repub- lican ciub, without any ifs or ands. The mem- bers will get together again at Washington Hall oh Tuesday evening of next week. MYSTERY OF A FLOUR BARREL Strange Story of a Fran- cisco-Street Small Boy. WASMURDER INTENDED? Georgie Walker Thinks That He Has Narrowly Escaped Death. ONLY CHILDREN WERE PRESENT These Young Witnesses Tell Very Contradictory Stories of the Affair, Thomas Walker lives at 532 Francisco street. He has children, grandchilaren, adopted children and visiting children who climb around his knees, plunker- whole affair was a rough joke, or yeta fabrication pure and simple. When Georgie Walker returned to his parents he was not bound. He is not very bright. Heis a spare, blue-eyed boy, good bu- mored and playful. He savs that he was barreled up and that the head of the barrel was in, but no one else saw the barrel headed. The 0dd feature of the case is the good natured way in which all persons con- cerned regard the matter. Mr. Walker says that there have been little contro- versies among the children and rhat the Watts children haye threatened to kill his son Georgie. He never supposed that they meantit, but he now thinks that they did. He did not appear to be anxious atall as he said this. Georgie Walker, notwithstanding the alleged attempt on bis life by Billy Watts proposed yester- day in the Ppresence of a reporter to go over into the Watts’ house once more. One of the Watts children said naively yesterday afternoon: ‘Georgie has not been over to see me since he got out of the barrel.” But for the complaint for battery which _Mr. Walker has filed betore Judge Joach- imson the case would appear only a child’s story, but Mr. Walker seems to believe the story fully and to be fully in earnest. The neighbors are puzzled and so are the police, because Mr. Walker is a good citi- zen and stands well with his neighbors. Billy Watt denies that he saw the little Walker boy Monday.

KA , A The Police Are in Some Doubt as to the Accuracy of His Blood-Curdling Tale, Which, However, Is Not Doubted by His Father. LL USED MO I ENLE Sad Plight of Santiago Corella, a Fourteen-Year-0ld Boy. Mrs, Estefana Garcia Accused of Maul- ing Him Whenever She Got the “Tantrums.” The sad case of SBantiago Corella, noted in TrE CALL some time ago, bas once more been brought to public notice. Corella, who is only 14 years of age, has been liv- ing, or rather existing, with an old woman named Estefana Garcia, in a lodging-house at 3238 Montgomery avenue. The woman is said to be subject to “‘tantrums,” during which she has been seen to beat the young- ster unmercifully with pots, pans, broom- sticks, or anything else that might come handy. . Poor Santiago grew to fear these ‘‘tan- trums,” and flee from them as from a cyclone's path. Hence his humble bed on 2 chest in the woman’'s room was often vacant, its tenant seeking repose in the dust-hole, the swill-bin, or in some friendly closet or corner in the corridors. One of the lodgers, taking pity on the boy’s sad plight, offered him a share in his quarters whenever Mrs. Garcia’s interesting symp- toms might make their appearance, a hospitality which Santiago gladly cepted. At the same time the man noti- fied Mrs. Garcia and her alleged husband that in case matters did not mend the authorities would be notified. Matters did not mend, and accordingly the boy was taken in ciurge by the 50- ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Chil- dren and placed in the Boys’ Training Home on Taylor street, while a warrant was issued for the arrest of Mrs. Garciaon a charge of cruelty. **The case is a sad one,” commented Sec- retary Welch yesterday. ‘[t looks as though the boy Santiago had been ab- ducted from his home in Manzanillo by Mrs. Garcia’s late son, who was a sailor. The captain on the steamer would have retained him in his employ, as he had taken quite a fancy to the lad, but Garcia iusisted ugon bringing him here. The iit- tle fellow has grown up in ignorarce and filth and is truly an object of charity. 1 intend requesting the Mexican Consul to write to Manzanillo and Colima, where Corella has relatives, asking them to send mears for his passage home. If returned to the Garcia woman there is every reason to fear that the poor little fellow, who is not very bright, may become idiotic.” BORROW on sealskins, silks and jewels at Uncle Harzis', 16 Grany avenue, plunk with his guitar, eat ginger-bread elephants on his front steps and ride around the block on his wagon with him. Mr. Walker is gray-haired and affable and speaks Spanish. One of his neighbors is William Watts, who is middle-aged, gifted with a long gray beard, a paternal smile and ten children, who range in size from the veriest toddler to the tall boy who is big enough to have his outgrown clothes cut over for his father. These two house- holds, opulent in babies, are like the rest of Francisco street in that respect, for there are battalions of babies in a house and regiments of them in a single block. Out of this plethora of young people comes a story which is more or less grew- some, according to the degree of credit which is attacbed to it. It has been averred by Thomas Walker that an at- tempt has been made by Billy watts, the | 21-year-old son of William Watts, to dis- pose of Georgie Walker, aged seven, ina peculiarly atrocious and blood-curdling way. According to this averment, Billy him, tied a balerope around his legs, bound a piece of coarse cloth over his mouth for a gag, put him in a flour barrel and hammered the barrel-head in, all with the intention of throwing the boy in the barrel overboard in the darkness of the night, and so murdering the lad. William Watts puts in an alibi for Billy and shows that he was not at home at the time that Georgie Walker was in a barrel. Mr. Watts does not deny that Georgie was In a barrel, and does not attempt to mitigate the circumstauce that it was a strong flour barrel, tout of stave and hoop and new throughout. At about 5 o’clock Monday afternoon Georgie Walker was seen to emerge from a flour barrel in the ‘Watts family yard. This much is admitted. Beyond this statement there are no two children in the block who agree, so that the facts in the case are puzzling and con- tradictory. When the alleged barreling took place there were two children, a boy and a girl, in the vicinity, and they were the only spectators. The: re members of the Watts family, and they both solemnly assert that Georgie Walker got into the barrei himself to hide from his sister. Two other children, a boy and a girl, little Louis Coutreras, aged 9, and Calla Walker, aged 9, allege that they saw Georgie Walker when he was taken from the barrel, and that he was gagged and bound, and that blood oozed from his mouth. There were no grown persons who saw the occurrence; and as the chil- dren mentioned tell contradictory stories onall points, it is difficult to ascertain whether a tragedy was attempted or if the ‘Watts tied Georgie Walker’'s hands behind | LIGHT WAS THEIR TALK Fourth Annual Meeting of the Pacific Coast Gas Asso- ciation.

A Committee Will Confer With the District Attorney To-Day. ALL THE JURORS IN LINE. Utmost Power Dslegated to the Jury to Be Exercised in the Inguiry. The Grand Jury at a meeting yesterday afternoon resolved to lay aside all plans for immediate adjournment and put forth every effort in its power to expose the in- fluences which brought about the reauc- tion of the personal property assessment roll by the Board of Supervisors. The acted as agents of interested corporations in voting to reduce the assessments of the Market-street Railway, the Spring Valley ‘Water Works and San Francisco Gaslight Company. The attendance of members at the ses- sion of the jury yesterday was large and the proceedings were not marred by dis- putes and recriminations. It was stated by several members that one point on which the jury had always agreed was the vrinciple that the great corporations should be compelled to sustain their share of taxable burdens so that the whole weight of taxation should not fall on the | merchants and home-owners. The statement which the jury last week presented to the Board of Supervisors, in which it was shown *that there was a de- ficiency of $11,000,000 in the assessment of personal property, such as stocks, bonds and franchises owned by local corpora- | tions, was submitted to the judgment of all the members and was transmiited to | the board after due deliberation. It rep- resented the facts as the jury had ascer- tained by patient investigation. The con- duct of certain Supervisors in ignoring this statement, and their further action in reducing the assessment below the figures reported by the Assessor, caused profound deliberation. Individually the members of the Grand Jury were indignant, but col- lectively they resolved to suppress all signs of indignation and proceed to ascer- tain what mysterious agency prompted the Supervisors to so openly declare them- selves the servants of interested corpora- tions. . Ic the determination to search for the truth the voice of the Grand Jury was unanimous. The decision to goahéad was greeted with applause. The jury had not been in session ten minutes before Mr. Payne came out and | called for District Attorney Barnes. It so happened that Mr. Barnes could not be present yesterday. It was resolved then tee to see Mr. Rarnes to-day and ascertain definitely the scope of the Grand Jury's authority and the character of evidence necessary to find indictment or sccusation. Other counsel may be engaged to assist the District Attorney if that course should be deemed advisable. Further develop- ments in this line may be made at the conference to-day. To-morrow at 2 p. M. the Grand Jury will convene to receive the reports of the special committee and discuss the advisability of engaging coun- sel. The members of the jury refased to di- vulge the details of the discussion. The foreman, Mr. Maskey, simply said, “We do not intend to abandon this contest.” The secrelary of the Grand Jury when asked what course would be pursued said: “You know that the question under con- | sideration relates to the assessment of property and the action thereon by the Supervisors. We have not yet determined what we shall do or what we can do, but we shall not stop here. This seems at first like an impregnable fortress, and we have not decided yet whether we shall attempt to take it by storm or undermine it. Nothing can be done unless we try. 'In the first place we shall take the advice of counsel. No, the jury is not divided in sentiment on this question. Yes, we considered the danger that the State Board of Equalization will raise the San Fran- cisco valuation to make good the reduc- tions allowed by the Board of Supervisors. Ishall go with Mr. Payne to-morrow to wait on the District Attorney. We shall ascertain what power the Grand Jury can wield.” Alpheus Bull Jr. said: “We purpose to keep hammering away and to hammer when the iron is hot. We will see what a Grand Jury can do.” The estimates for maintaining the mu- nicipal government for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1897, which have practi- cally been agreed upon by the Grand Jury, may not be transmitted to the Board of Supervisors. The work in hand will be finished, however, and embodied | in the final report to Judge Slack. * Yesterday the proposed sllowance of $24,000 a year to janitors of the New City Hall called out an earnest protest. It was said that the protest would not be so earnest if the building was kept in a state of cleanliness creditable to the City, but as a matter of fact it was kept in a wretchedly filthy condition and was a disgrace to San Francisco, although a more than liberal allowance was made to keep everything in first-class order.

Charles Arns’ Method of Reimbursing Himself for Alleged Damage to His Carpets. Louise Schwegler, now living at 1520 Clay street, swore out a search warrant in Judge Conlan’s court yesterday for the recovery of her gold watch and chain, which she alleges are in the unlawful pos- session of Charles Arms, tailor, 402 Jones street. She also swore to a complaint charzing Arms with grand larceny. The complainant says that she roomed in Arms’ house for about a year till June 3, when she was taken sick with typhoid fever. Detective Anthony heard of her case and took her to the French Christian Union and through that society she was sent to the French Hospital. She recovered and left the bospital a few her effects and found that her trunk had been broken open and her watch and chain taken. She could get no satisfaction from Arms and notified Detective Anthony. returned to Arms’ house and Arms ad- mitted taking the watch and chain because Miss Schwegler’s nurse had ruined his carpets. He refused to give up the watch and chain and referred the detective to his attcrney, Jobn F. Riley, 426 California street, who had the articles. Attorney Riley is out of town so the search warrant and warrant for grand larceny were procured. BLACKED HIS BABY'S EYE Alexander Silva’s Alleged Cruelty to His Wife and Child. A Neighbor Scales a High Board Fence and Gives the Man a Sound Tkrashing. “Man’s inhumanity to man” is a well- worn theme, but when it comes to heart- less cruelty to helpless little ones the most degraded among humsan kind usually shrink from crime so hideous and un- natural. An excention to this rule is found in the case of Alexander Silva, a barber liv- ing at 634} Broadway. For some time this man has been in the habit,of beating and buffeting his eighteen-month old child, which even now bears in a black- ened and swollen eye the evidences of a father’s brutality. A day or so ago Silva was indulging in his favorite pastime when the cries of the tortured child caused Mrs. Bilva to interfere. The woman is in an advanced stage of delicate health, but regardless of her condition het husband struck her in the face and felled her to the round. Meanwhile the scene of domestic bliss had been observed by a neighbor, Kitter- man by name, through a crack ir the bourd fence, When he saw Mrs. Silva fall Kitterman leaped over the high fence separating his yard from that of the Silvas, and, casting his jacket aside, pro- ceeded to thrash the inhuman husband and father to the Queen’s own iaste. Siiva came forth from the fray a very poor sec- ond best, Kitterman returned over the fence to his own quarters, and Mrs. Silva, having revived somewhat, proceeded to dress the baby’s wounds as best she could. Kitterman forthwith reported the case to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. Thus far no arrests have been made, but the society is keep- ing Silva under rigorous surveillance. Mrs. Silva has frequentiy been advised to report her husband’s conduct to the proper authorities, but has always de- sisted from doing so through fear of con- sequences. Silva issaid to be a good pro- vider, and kind enough withal, save when he gives way to his ungovernable temper. MALLON GOT THE PLUM. The Contract for the Art GI City Hall Dome Let. The Board of City Hall Commissioners met yesterday and awarded the contract | for the art glass for the dome to the Pacific American Decorative Company, of which John Mallon, the veteran decorative glass man, is the head. The price was $16,560. The new specifications for the roof, which call for a cement structure, instead of the slate roof originally intended, were accepted. The cement roof will cost about $50,000 less than the slate roof. for the Mrs. Bertha Steinmiller, 2734 McAllister street, swore to a complaint in Judge Joachim- sen’s court yesterday charging Mrs, Elizabeth Kopp with misdemeanor embezzlement. She | alleges that she had $25 in the hands of At- torney Loughborough and she gave Mrs. Kopp &n order to secure the money. Mrs. Kopp ol tained it and used it for her own uses and pur- poses.
