8 TROLLEY WIRES IN SONOMA VALLEY, ‘Plan of Some Enterprising English Capi- talists TO REACH TIDEWATER. Electric Freight Cars for the Wares of the Farmer and the Fruit Man. PROSPECTS OF LOW RATES, Franchises Will Soon Be Asked For and Work Will Commence Without Delay. 1t has long been a source of surprise to practical Eastern visitors to this coast that Californians fail to employ their magnifi- cent waterways to their obvious profit. There is no State in the Union with better facilities for water transportation. The bay of San Francisco is like the center ofa star, with navigable streams radiating in many directions. Some of these streams, it is true, have been partially used for freight transportation since the days of the earliest settlers, but none of them have yet been employed to their full ca- pacity. Intelligent business men have long pointed out the great saving to the farmer and fruis-grower possible in the navigation of the bay creeks and great in- Jand rivers. They have pointed out that the Sacramento, with a little assistance from the Government, could be made navigable to good-sized craft from Red Biuff to S8an Francisco, and that the south- central streams are equally available. ‘Were these streams employed te their full capacity the saving to farmers would be immense, and many an agriculturist now practically bankrupt would to-day be prosperous had he been able to use the waterways to his market so tiberally pro- vided by nature. Heretofore only the farmers living on the shores of tidewater streams adjacent to Ban Francisco have reaped the ad- vantages of these creeks, inlets and rivers. But there are indications that a new era is about to dawn and that farmers compara- tively remote will be enabled to enjoy the cheap transporiation extended by them. Unfortunately, however, it is English not local capital that will do the exploita tion; and yet there are millions of unem- ployed capital in the banks of California. Thus the spectacle 1s presented of foreign capital coming in and making money un- der the very noses of local moneyed men while they have been *‘waiting for some- thing to turn up.” Old Sonoma, the first established town in the State, is to be the scene of the open- ing of this new era. The selection is thus quite proper, and history bids fair to re- peat itself. There is considerable excitement over the matter up in the Sonoma Valley, for it means a good deal to the farmers and orchardists of that beautiful vale. If it proves successful, it means the emancipa- tion of thousands of farmers from exces- sive freight charges. Not only this, it means that other sections will go and do likewise, and thus in due time vast dis- tricts of California will be permanently benefited. The project is this: The Kenwood Land Company, which owns a large tract of land between Glen Ellen and Santa Rosa, isabout to construct an electric railroad from Santa Rosa to Sonoma, a distance of twenty miles. This will bring the farmers and orchardists of the upper Sonoma Valley within six miles of the embarca- dero on Sonoma Creek, where a schooner making regular trips between San Fran- cisco and the Sonoma Valley has a land- inp. This of course means the release of those farmers and orchardists from possi- ble Ligh rail rates in the future. It is one of the finest sections of the State. Around Glen Ellen there are famous olive orchards, vineyards and wineries, for Sonoma is celebrated for its wines. Fur- thur on toward Santa Rosa, just over the hills, are the great prune orchards of So- noma County, second only to those of the Santa Clara Valley. The electric line witl enable all these prune, olive and wine men to land their products by electric line and water at San Francisco at much less than they pay now. When the line gets well in operation it is proposed to extend it from Sonoma down to navigable tidewater at the embarcadero, thus obviating the necessity of a six-mile wagon haul and the consequent breakage of bulk at Sonoma. Between Sonoma and the embarcadero are large orchards and vineyards, and it is yroposed to put in sidetracks at the prin- cipal orchards to allow the orchardists to load their fruit on the cars at their leisure, thus giving the electric company an op- portunity for rapid and practically un- broken transit to tidewater. Of course, the project will be opposed by the railroads. There are two lines in the valley—the Southern Pacific and the San Francisco and North Pacific. The former line is a branch running from Napa June- tion to Santa Kosa, called the Santa Rosa and Carquinez Straits line. The latter leaves the main stem of the San Francisco and North Pacific at Ignacio, in Marin County, runs due east across Petaluma Creek, turns north into the Sonéma Val- ley, and terminates at Glen Ellen at the extreme upper end of the valley, passing througn Sonoma Town. Rail rates are cheap in the valley, owing to the compe- tition between the Southern Pacific and its lively rival, and, as if this were not enough, the schooner line from San Fran- cisco up San Pablo Bay and Sonoma Creek to the embarcadero prevents the two lines from pooling to the loss of the farmers and the orchardists. Freight rates in the So- noma Valley are thus the cheapest in the State to-day, but when the new electric line gets into operation they will be cheaper still. And if there is anything the California farmer needs it is cheap freight rates. It goes without saying that these two railroads will fight the new line. They will prevent it from obtaining a franchise from Sonoma County if they can. The people of the valley have been quick to realize this, and will watch their Board of Bupervisors very closely when the fran- chise comes up before it for approval. The plan of organization is unique, but simple and very intelligent, Between $250,000 and $300,000 worth of bonds will { did not. And be issued, but the English capitalists wish to insure the interest on them for at least two years. To secure it, therefore, they will iss?e ticket-books, each good for 1000 miles of travel at 1 cent & mile, or $10 for the book, and the zale of these among the farmers will easily insure a good interest on the bond issue. These tickets will be transferable, and the holder and all his family and a carload of his friends can all travel on the one book. The franchise will be asked for in a short time, and the promoters hope to get to work within sixty days. MURDERER OCK WAH. Held Responsible for the Death of Lee Tye by a Coroner’s Jury. An inquest into the death of Lee Tye, who was killed Sunday night in Waverly place, was held by Coroner Hawkins yes- terday. Ock Wah, alias Wong Ah Chuck, was identified and charged with the mur- der. Lee Kong, Lee Tung and Lee Ah Sing testified to seeing the shot fired by the accused man. On belrg asked if they knew the murderer, they said, *‘That man,” pointing to Ock Wah. Officer Has- kell testitied to making the arrest amd having the murderer identified by one Ye Tout. The jury retired and, after a few moments’ deliberation, returned a verdict in accordance with the above facts. 3 Four other inquests were held in addi- tion to the one on the body of Lee Tye. In the case of Charles Brown, who fell from a porch on Minna street, the jury decided that the death was accidental. A verdict of suicide was rendered in the cases of Hollis W, Cox, Camilla Ferrari and John W. Newell-Burns. MONEY THAT COMES NOT Appropriation for Sugar Manu- facturers Held at Wash- ington. James Coffin Points Out Discrimina. tion—Treasury Officials Said to Be Culpable. James Coffin, secretary of the Alameda Sugar Company, paid a visit to the In- ternal Revenue Collector’s office the other day for information regarding the delay in payment of sugar bounties. In the course of his investigations he made some interesting discoveries in connection with the way business isdone in Washington, It was proved by statistics that while the Government was not paying the bounty on sugar to American manufac- turers it has been giving brandy for forti- fication of sweet wines made in the United States. The output ot sweet wines in California during the last season, accord- ing to internal revenue reporte, increased over 750,000 galions. The total product of sweet wines in California in the past fiscal year was 4,233,116.44 gallons. In the manufacture of this wine 1,027,909.8 gal- lons ot brandy were consumed. No tax had to be paid on this brandy. As the tax on brandy is $1 10 a gallon, it may be seen that the Government ‘contributed toward the wine industry of California $1,130,700 78 in_the year. Meanwhile the Government is slow in paying the sugar bounty. ~It shows the pull of the liquor inter- ests,”” said Mr. Coffin yesterday. “We have 217 farmers on our list who supply our little mill alone, and -they em; Foy each from five to twenty men. he amount of work we give is wonderful, but we are neglected by the Government. ‘““Congress contracted to pay the sugar manufacturers a bounty for fifteen years. In 1894 this bounty was taken off and a duty ef 40 per cent ad valorem substi- tuted. An appropriation was made which was supposed to equalize matters, but it that money can’t be got because the Comptroller of the Treasury said that the appropriation was not con- stitutional. “The Supreme Court of the United States decided in favor of the sugar men to the effect that Congress had the wer to make the appropriation, and that this money should be paid. About a seventh or eighth of it was paid in June. A small portion of it came to California. “It would seem to me that they are do- ing everything their power in Wash- ington to del payment of the money. For instance we received a telegram last week from Washington, ‘claims lost, send duplicates.” We had duplicates in there already, and I cannot see how they could be lost in a Government office by acci- dent.” HER AGE NO SHIELD. The Mother of Eight Children Brutally Beaten by a Man of Thirty- One Years. A woman giving her name as Mrs, Wil- son, aged about 45 years, is lying at the home of a charitable lady friend at 1 Polk street, striving to recover from a dreadful mauling given her by Jack Condon of soda-water fame. Mrs. Wilson is the mother of eight chil- dren, the eldest of whom isa young man more than old enough to vote. For some time /past she has resided with Condon, w hofis 31 years old, at the house of a col- ored m agnetic healer known as *‘Mingo,” on Miss ion street, near Fifth. Her union with Condon was cemented about eight months ago by the birth of a little girl. The tiny stranger’s advent does not seem to have brought harmony to the queerly assorted pair, who have been fighting ever since she came to town. Last Monday night things reached a climax. Mrs. Wilson came out of the fray with a battered nose, closed eyee, an ear mashed or chewed beyond recognition and a face colored black and blue from the swollen lips upward. I never saw & woman in so frightfal a state,”” commented Officer Frank Hol- brook yesterday at the office of the Society for the Preyention of Cruelty to Children. “Of course the woman is not in danger of death, but what remaina of good looks she mn?y bave had are surely gone beyond re- call. We are trying to find a place for the little child, but Mount St. Joseph’s is full and there seems to be no other institution for the reception of infants.” WATERMELONS SEIZED. More Fruit From Fresno Cousigned to the Tide by Inspector Billy Jordan. Market Inspector Billy Jordan made an- other raid on unripe watermelons yester- day and as a result 300 were dumped into the tide to feed the sharks or to be fished out by the wharfrat and devoured with many whoops of delight. Half of the total number seized were t;ken t‘mmh"h B,"i!f,";e%‘“ commission- ouse, to whic! ey ha n i by J. C. Azhderian ’&t Fresno, vc&nlfl‘l:i‘; rest were sent in by Hobbs & Parson of the same locality, and some of the melons were sunburned and dangerous for food. —————— Green ¥ruit for London. Another train load of green fruit left Sacra- mento Wednesday for London. It was the third this season, and consisted of five cars of mixed fruits. It will go through to Chicago, over the Central Pacific, the Union Pacific and the Chicago ana Northwestern in 120 hours, and thence 1o New York over the Erie Despatch line in two days. Here the fruit will be trans- ferred to one of the steamers of the American Steamship line and arrive in London two weeks from the day it sterted from Secra. mento. THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, JULY 24, 1896. o O S PSS SO s 10 L s e S e b et o e M S e e e A e e Dol S VR R e e e TR e NOTED SINGLE- TAXER COMING, Dr.R. S.

Expected to Enter the Local Cam- paign for Local Option in Taxation. Dr. R, 8.

Her coal bunker capacity is 1000 tons and her speed is 23.03 knots &n hour. The two yessels will be furnished with the very latest warlike appliances, it being the desire of the Japanese Government to secure for them the newestimprovemenus. Some time ago several Japanese officers visited the Union Iron Works and care- fuily inspected the plant. The battle-ship Oregon was noted as a sample of the out- put of that splendid ship hc(og. The reports of the visiting officials were favorable and the Union Iron Works was invited to bid for the buildingof the cruis- ers. Cramps were also asked to do the same, and again the two great firms are competing for the award. ‘At the request of the JnEnnese Gov- ernment we put in bids for the construe- tion of the two cruisers,” said Henry Scott yesterday, ““Of course, everything connected with the matter is strictly con- fidential, I only know that the Japanese Government satisfied itself that the Amer- ican shipbyilders could compete with the world and ealled for our bids. I believe we will be given an opportunity to turn out one, if not both, of those ships.” Balorg the contracts are awarded the board in session at the legation at Wash- ington will consider the different El“! and specifications submitted and make its recommendations to the Imperial Gov- ernment. It will be several weeks before these reports reach Tokio, where they will be considered and the contracts awarded, if the plans submitted are accepted. ————— Palace Restaurant Failure. Robert Matthey and Albert Young, pro- prietors of the Palace Restaurant on Market street, have filed a petition in insolvency. | They owe $7096 44, and their assets amount to $1500. The principal ereditors are grocers, produce dealers and employes of the restaurant. There isdue the latter $211 30 back wages. Matthey owes personally $2450 outside the debts of the firm and has no individual assets. The insolvency is the result of an attachment filed on Tuesday. \ \\ \) Dr.R.S. Law, a Prominent Single-Taxer, Who Is Soon to Arrive in This City. in this City, where he will take part in the campaign that is to be carried on in favor of the constitutional amendment grarting local option in taxation. The doctor is at present in Montana, looking after some of his numerous min- ing interests, which he has scattered over the country. He has also several large mining interests in Placer and El Dorado counties, in this State. Dr. Law and his partner have a central office in New York. The doctor is con- tinually running back and forth between the metrovolis and Delaware, where he has been busy in the single-tax campaign ever since its beginning about a year ago. He travels through the State, talking to the farmers, speaking in churches, and when in the towns and cities speaking night after night on the street corners. Dr. Law has furnished a tent for the umg)neign which is used in various parts of laware for campaign meetings. Among the speakers who travel with it is Robert M. Mobius, the brilliant young Oakiand speaker who left for the East some months ago. ‘Whep the single-tax campaign was in- augurated in Delaware a year ago last June Dr. Law was one af the most promi- nent of the score of Philadelphians who began the fight for tax reform. At the opening meeting the doctor prophesied that before the campaign was over some ten or a dozen prominent speakers whom he named would come to speak in Dela- ware. Strange to say, without one excep- tion, all the speakers mentioned have since entered the fight. *Dr. Law is one of the most inde- fatigable workers in Delaware,” said Ralph_E. Hoyt, who has just returned from Delaware, where he and the doctor have been traveling about together in% on the campaign. “His geniality and indefatigable zeal gain him admis- sion everywhere, and he seizes eagerly every opportunity to preach the great re- form of which he is such an earnest advo- FOR JAPAVESE CRUSERS The Union Iron Works and the Cramps Have Submitted Their Bids. It Was the Splendid Showing of the Oregon That Caught the Japs’ Attention. The builders of the Charleston, S8an Fran- cisco, Monterey, Olympia and Oregon may next be riveting together a fight er for the Mikado. Yesterday a Washington dispatch stated that American shipbuilders had been per- mitted to compete for the construction of vessels for the Japanese navy, and that an imperial board had just oyened the bidsat the Japanese Legation. These bids had been submitted by the Union Iron Works and the Cramps for two fast crnisers, Their dimensions will be as follows: Displacement, 4700 tons; length, 870 feet ; beam, 48 feet; draft,17 feet 6 inches; horse- power, 15000; speed under forced draft, 224 knots; speed under natural draft, 2035 knots. They are to be of the Yoshino type, a 15,000-ton cruiser built for the Japanese Government in 1892. She has an arma- ment of four 6-inch and eight 4 7-10 inch quick-fire rifles and twenty-two three- GOLDEN GATE CARNIVAL More Than $m000 in Sight, With Large Corporations to Hear From. Conceded That Recent Warm Remarks Served to Advertise the Carnival. Reports made by members of the execu- tive committee of the Carnival of the Golden Gate at the meeting held last night showed that hittle more than $11,000 isin sight at present. This does not in- clude the large corporations, whose sub- scriptions will be made known between now and next Monday. Each member of the committee made a very favorable report. They stated that some few did not like the idea of the car- nival in San Francisco for the reason that they thought it was imitating the smaller towns, Others thought times were too hard to have a carnival; but an over- whelming majority declared themselves in favor of it, and while their subserip- tions wouid not be large, stillj the com- mittee feeis that they will be able to raise the amount that wiil be required to suc. cessfully cariy on the carnival. Carnival Director Friedlander, at the request of the Merchants’ Association, met with their executive committee yes- terday afternoon. He was informed that the association as a body were 100 much engrossed with their labors on the new charter, but with the exception of but one member the others personally were in hearty accord and would subscribe. There was a mutnal expression of good feeling, and regret that any controversy had arisen, but both sides conceded that the warm remarks of the past few days had been of much benefit in Mlngng the me;lilm of the carnival directly before the public, Colonel O'Byrne urged a resolution to express the gentiment of the members that the carnival should be carried through in all its original splendor and glory, and that each member should use his best per- sonal efforts to induce his friends to con- tribute toward ite support. In order to accommodate some of the members of the committee who have taken ug their residence in the country during the summer days and have been unable to attend, the meetings will be held on Momh{ at noou for the next few weeks, and with this understanding Henry J. Crocker will again assume his position as a member of the executive committee, as he expressed himself both verbally and by letter to several members of the com- mittee as being heartity in accord with its movements, and that his best efforts will be at any time atethe disposal of the committee during the hours in which he isin the City.

PARKER IN CHARGE A Glorious Ride Up the Moun- tain on the Scenic Railway. LUNCH IN THE REDWOODS. The Grand Ending to the Fourth Annual Session of the Pacific Coast Association. The members of the Pacific Coast Gas Association did something very much out of the ordinary yesterday in closing their fourth annual session. They had been in session three days, two of which were spent in this City, E. C. Jones presiding, and during which time business, strictly business, held sway. Following in this line, a new president— T. R. Parker—was elected to replace Mr. Jones, and yesterday these two gentlemen sat in bank, as it were, to fittingly con- duct the affairs of the society and call for an adjournment of the meeting until one year hence in this City. Nothing grander than this meeting can be imagined. A hundred or more of the brightest engineers in the far West were assembled, and their place of reunion was almost within a stone’s throw of the sum- mit of Mount Tamalpais. After a five-and-a-half-mile ride over the Mill Valley and Mount Tamalpais Scenic Railway to an altitude of more than 1600 feet the meeting was called to order by the retiring president, whose gavel re- sounded on & twenty-ton bowlder and whose drinking-cup was filled by an ever- running mountain spring. It was there, at the extreme limit reached so far by the new road, a wonder. ful piece of engineering in itself, over- looking San Rafael, Mill Valiey, San Quentin, Sausalito, Tiburon, Racoon Straits, the Sacramento River, Angel Island, the Golden Gate and San Fran- cisco, that ex-President E. C. Jones relin- uished his scepter into the hands of T. R. arker of Napa. The members of the association, except- ing J. B. Crockett, president of the Ban Francisco Gaslight Company, whose business detained him in the City, and M. C. Osborne of Santa Cruz, whose 1liness compelled him to stay away, were all represented. With the members were their wiv isters and sweethearts, who gatbered beautiful ferns during the meeting. The party was handled from this side of the bay by Jobn A. Britton of Oakland, the secretary of the association, who re- linquished. his charge only when Mill Valley was reached. At this lovely spot 8. B. Cushing, president of the San Rafael Gas Company, provided a special train of cars to make the ascent of Mount Tamal- pais. After a short run to the outskirts of Blythdale there was a halt in the heart of | the redwoeds. Two tables were set and the party enjoyed a delightful luncheon while listening to the strains of masic from a string band, the performers being perched in the forks of a dozen redwood irees immediately above the banquet- board. The host on this oeccasion, Mr. Cushing, was toasted by his grateful guests and the mountain ascent resumed. Among the ladies present were: Miss Emma B. Gossard, Mrs. John L. How- ard, Mrs. ana Miss B. A. Knight, Miss Grace Sanborn, Mrs. John Clements, Miss March Clements, Mra E. C. Jones, Mrs. W. Dunbar, Miss Cressey, Mrs.J. W. Thorhas, Mrs. George C. Holberton, Mrs. J.

The Estate of Fhillipine Langfeldt, Blanther’s Victim, Sued for Medi~ cal Attendance. Adolph Rapp, administrator of the es- tate of Phillipine Langfeldt, the old Ger- men lady supposed to haye been murdered by Josef Blanther, was sued yesterday by C. Kleineberg, the man in whose house the murder occurred, for $750 for services alleged to have been rendered Mrs. Lang- feldt during her lifetime. The complaint is very ambiguous and makes absolutely no mention of the nature of the alleged service. It issimply stated that on June 13, 1896, Kleineberg pre- sented his claim to Mr, Rapp, and that on June 18 it was rejocted, T ° Dr. Kleineberg, on being seen yesterday, sawi: “This is simply a suit to recover on a claim for professional services—medical attendance. I had been treating Mrs. Langfeldt fora lon{ time for a complica- tion of diseases. I ireated her before she came here. She wanted to be near me, where she could have the benefit of my advice constantly, so she applied for and rented her apartments in this house. The contention is that she paid the bill monthly. What she was her rent, board and lodging. did not pay her bill for my services.” ‘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, NEW TO-DAY.
