THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, AUGUST 21, 1896. AN W The Martha Davis Is Now Out Thirty-Six Days From Honolulu. Light Winds and Calms Have Probably Delayed Her, and It May Be 2 Week Before She Gets In. Captain Soule Was to Have Been Married Last Week in Washington, D. C., and He Is Probably the Most Disgruntled Man Aboard. His Friends in This City Assert That He Will Be Catching Seagulls During the Calms in Lieu of Carrier Pigeons and Sending Them to the United States With Love Letters. THE MARTHA DAVIS - LONG OVERDUE Captain Soule, Her Master, Was to Be Married Last Week. DELAYED BY CALMS. The S. G. Irwin, Which Got In Yesterday, Reports Very Light Winds. CHANGES ON THE FRUIT WHARF Napa and San Quentin Boats Will Not Move to Pacific Street. / ‘“As idle as a painted ship upon a painted ocean.” The bark Martha Davis is now out thirty-six days from Honolulu and people along the water front are pitying Captain Soule. He was to have been in Washing- ton, D. C., last week to be married, but the wind aud weather are against him and the stout bark is still drifting around between the islands and the coast. The brig 8. G. Irwin arrived from Hono- lulu yesterday after a twenty-four days’ passage. Captain Williams says that nothing was encountered save light winds and calms, and that for days the brig did not make a mile an hour. He did not speak the Martha Davis, but says that if Captain Soule has experienced the same weather as his vessel did it may be a week before he gets in. Should the bark not get in before next week she will have made one of the longest trips on record from Honolulu to S8an Francisco. When the Martha Davis reaches San Francisco she will be laid up_or sold. Portland has cuat into the San Francisco trade with Hawaii to such an extent that half the sugar boats leave here empty. The oats, hay and produce that used to go from Ban Francisco are shipped from Port- land, and in consequence vessels like the Martha Davis will have to go out of com- mission. The accompanying cut shows the bark in a dead calm. Captain Soule, knowing that his wedding-day was at hand and that he was still hundreds of miles from | land, has, according to Mr. Coulter, char- tered a seagull to carry his love a message. The Harbor Commissioners held an- other lively session yesterday. At the last meeting it was gecided to give the whole of Jackson-street wharf to the fruit- men. The BSacramento Transfer Com- any, the Napa Company and the San uentin boats were ordered to move to Pacific, but the{ refused to obey the Chief Wharfinger. hey pointed out that for twenty-five years and over they had been docking at Jackson street and that all their business came to that pointand to move would be a hardship. When the board met yesterday Major P. J. Harney of the Sacramento Trans- portation Company, Captain Leale of the Caroline and Captain Wolfe of the steamers Napa City and Zinfandel were on hand to oppose the move. They pointed out that an injustice was being done them and the commission recon- sidered its action. All the boats named will remain at Jackson street, but the fruitmen will be compelled to remove the shipments as soon as they arrive and the wharf will no more be used as a warehouse. At the present time there is an enormous stock of empty boxes on the wharf, and they will be moved to-day. If not by the owners they will be by the Chief Wharf- inger, and some one will have to pay for the moving. President Colnon drew the attention of the board to the fact that Uncle Sam was using space on the front and paying no rent for it. The customs authorities are provided with accommodations at Meiggs wharf, Broadway wharf, Folsom-street wharf and the Mail dock, while the Post- office has a big building all to itself at the foot of Market street. Of these, only the barge office at Meiggs Wharf and the Post- office pay rent. In future all the others will be assessed, and the State will be so many hundred dollars richer at the end of each year. Owing to a slight error in his calcula- tions, the late A. Page Brown has put the commission to an extra expense of $4000 in constructing the new ferry depot. The board’s attorney, Tirey L. Ford, was in- structed to look into the matter and see if the loss could not be collected from the dead architect’s bondsmen. A gang of petty burgiars have been at work on the water front for some weaks ast. A number of stores have been roken into, but in every instance the booty was light. Detectives Egan and Silvey bave been put on the scent, and they expect to run the thieves io earth in a few days. Benjamin Pincus was locked up in the Harbor police station yesterday for dis- turbing the peace. Commission Merchant Riley, who was standing on Washington- street wharf, remarked that Clerk Sulli- van, who was near by, could throw a potato from where they were standing over the Jackson-street shed. “I'll bet $20 to $5 he can’y,” said Pincus. The bet was made and Sullivan, choosing a smal! potato, sent it over the intervening space, over the Jackson-street shed and into the slip beyond. Riley divided the $20 with Sullivan, and then the row began. Pincus swore he had been robbed, and wanted his money back. To soothe him $10 was re- funded, but that only made him the more eager to get the remainder. He finally showed fight, and was arrested. He is now out $10 and will have to answer the charge of disturbing the peace to-day. PREPARING THE PAVILION, New and Attractive Stands Are Being Built for the Exhibitors. The Coming Fair Will Bs Better Than Former Ones—All the Space Taken. The work of preparation for the opening of the twenty-ninth Industrial Exposition of the Mechanics’ Institute is going rap- idly on, and long before September 1 the Pavilion will be filled with exhibits. Su- perintendent J. H. Gilmore states that never before have exhibitors been so prompt in choosing space and getting their arti- cles into shape for the opening day. As yet the decoration and arrangement of the great hall has only commenced, but enough has been done tg show how attractive the interior of the building will be. The ceiling of the concave roof has been covered in red, and a draping of or- ange and blue is going up at the sides. The effect of these colors ander hundreds of electric lights will be exceedingly beantiful. Work has begun in the booths, pagodas, temples and stands which are to occupy the main floor. One of the most striking construction is a soap temple 14x18 feet, the exhibits of Fishbeck & Glootz. The ornamental base, tesselated floor, columns, frieze and dome are molded from the soft, plastic material. The unique affair will be brilliantly illu- minated. M. F. Bradley is the arcnitect. Tillmann & Bendel, grocers, are builain, a large Egyptian structure surmounteg by four iph)uxel in which to place their exhibits. ‘W. W. Faller will erect a mirror temple, and the Standard Biscuit Company is building an ornamental stand at the west end of the nave. Warner & Maddox have put together a fireproof construction showing ceilings, arches, partitions, etc., in the non-com- bustible material. The Cook Belting Com- pany will exhibitin a rustic booth built near the entrance from an attractive de- sign. "zl‘he Pavilion management have placed no restriction upon exhibitors, but will permit them to follow out their own pleas- ure in regard to designs, dimensions and material, and the result will be a gleulng variety among the exhibition stands. The State Fish Commission will exhibit a number of glass tanks filled with rare fish and a hatchery in operation. ———————— Trunks Moved 25 Cents.

Counsel Attack the Allegations Contained in the Com- plaints. CASES TO BB SET SATURDAY. Action of the Court Epoken of Dis- paragingly Just Outside of the Courtroom. Justice of the Peace Carroll presided in Judge Conlan’s police court yesterday. Just before noon, after cases of many sorts had been dispcsed of, the cases of the Bocialists who were arrested last Sat- urday night at the corner of Seventh and Market streets came up. All of those who were taken into custody at that time and place were in court and they were accom- panied by Attorneys Monteith and Has- kell, The charges against them were obstruct- ing the sidewalk and disturbing the peace. When they were arrested they were tak- ing part in a gathering at which the principles of socialism were being ex- pounded. The trustees of the Odd Fel- lows’ Association were meeting in the 0dd Fellows’ building, at the corner of Seventh and Market streets, at the time, and the noise made by the speakers and attendants at the Socialists’ meeting in- terfered with their deliberations, The police officers who made the arrests were eVbnlan. O'Connor and Jackson. They were in court yesterday, and there were also present a number of members of the Socialistic party to the number of two score or more, who were interested specta- tors and suditors when the cases were | called. the Socialists, and at one oved that the case against William CoStley, who was first named on the calendar, should be dis- missed. The ground upon which he based this motion was that the warrant set u that Costley was obstructing the uidewalg when a public meeting was not being held. Now, the contrary was, according to Mr. Monteith’s information and belief, the fact, for a public meeting was in progress when the police came, and there were many persons in attendance who were listening to the speeches which were being made. Mr. Monteith declared that the com- plaint was false and iraudulent and con- tained perjury. He asserted again that the arrests were made at a public meeting and offered to_prove by tue testimony of the complaining witness, Officer Whalen, that the complaint was not true, *“The complaining witness will say,” said Mr. Monteith, with a show of considerable warmth, “if he is put on the stand, that when these arrest were made there was in progress a public meeting at which they were in attendance.” Judge Carroll denied the motion to dis- miss and an exception was taken. - Mr. Haskell then spoke as counsel, and with even more heat than had been mani- fested by Mr. Monteith demanded an in- stant trial. “These men are poor and work for a living; they are here to-day and we are ready to goon. To compel these men to come back again would entail hmshig because thof would lose their work again.’ Mr. Haskell also denounced the complaint as fraudulent, and said: “We shall de- mand a jury trial in every one of these cases. We will not consent that one man shall be tried by the court and that all the Mr. Monteith was the gnt to speak for others shall be adjudged by the testimony in one case.” Mr, Haskell asked to pro- ceed with the hearing at once. Justice Carroll said that it would be impossible to go on witn a jury trial then. A venire must issue and it would take time to get together the jury and added that there isa jury trial which would come on in the afternoon. Mr. Monteith said: “We want to give the officer a chance, at this time, to cor- rect his statement made in the complaint as to whether there was a public meeting whein these arrests were made. We de- mand a public trial at once.” Justice Carroll said that a jury was not present. ‘‘We are ready to proceed, and we are willing to take any twelve men in this room as jurors,” said Mr. Monteith. Justice Carroll said that he would put the entire matter over until Saturday marlning, when he would set the case for trial. The Socialists and their attorneys then left the courtroom and gathered in the corridor outside, where they discussed the situation and the proceedings in the court- room. Mr, Monteith deciared that the action of the court was ‘‘outrageous,” and in this opinion several of his clients con- curred. Those who are held to appear Saturday morping next on account of the happenings at the corner of Seventh and Market streets are as follows: William Costley, E. T. Kingsley, Geor; Bpeed, %e(fge Aspden, M. Speeney, J. Poster and . Lux. UNLAWFUL BUSINESS. No Amount of Police Toleration Can Legalize the Letting of Premises for Tmmoral Purposes. The Supreme Court gave a little rap to the Police Department of this City in a decision handed down yesterday. The case was that of Charles A. Chateau against Justin Singla, the plaintiff asking for the dissolution of a copartnership formed for the purpose of furnishing and letting certain premises for immoral pur- poses. Bingla opposed the petition on the ground that the courts could not inter- vene, since the business carried on by the partners was illegal. The Superior Court, however, sustained the legality of the partnership, since the police authorities permitted the business in question to be carried on in that quarter of the City in which the premises were located, and pro- ceeded to the dissolution of the copartner- ship and the appointment of a receiver. On np};enl by Chateau the point made by him in the lower court is sustained, the business beinfi held 1llegal and the matter referred to the lower tribunal for further action. In rendering the decision the Supreme Court says: Public policy is not made or unmade by the actions or omissions of a Police Department, nor will it be contended that the Police De- partment may abrogate a penal statute or annul an express mandate of law.

FIELD OF COCMPETITION. Many Important Towns on the Ceast to Be Bene- fited. THE LONG DISTANCE SERVICE, How Conversation Between New York and San Francisco Could Be Established. The field of reduction on this coast over which the recently cut rates of the Western Union Telegraph Company ex- tend, embraces many important stations winfin the range of the Sunset Telephone and Telegraph Company’s service. It is highly probable, in fact it is admitted, that the Western Union reduction will be followed by a scaling down of charges for teiephone service in the same area. In replying to inquiries on behalf of THE CaLL yesterday Louis Glass, manager of the Sunset Company, remarked that the ‘Western Union and the telephone com- pany did not enter into direct competi- tion. The written message transmitted over the wire was usually the announce- ment of a definite proposition. The con- versation conducted through the medium of the telephone frequently related to matters of negotiation. As an example he said a merchant of San Francisco might call up Johnson of Los Angeles and ascertuin from the latter if a carload of oranges of a certain grade could be immediately obtained reply in the affirmative, ana the two would thus close up the business transac- tion in two minutes’ conversation. Lead- ing firms had a_Sunset wire running di- tectly to the office, and experts in this form of communication were employed. Mr, Glass called up Los Angeles to give the reporter an object lesson. The long distance did not perceptibly diminish the distinctness of the conversation. ‘When Mr. Glass was asked if the tele- phone company would meet the reduction announced by the Western Union, he said in all probability it would. He recognized that reducion of rates increased the vol- ume of business. He said further: “We have during the past two years ex- pended $700,000 on territorial extension outside of cities and towns. Between this City and San Jose we have fourteen pairs of wires. We have two complete loops to Los Angeles and four loops from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles. The greater the distance is_the heavier the copper wire must be. With copper wire of sufficient weight direct ~conversation between New York and San Francisco could be maintained. Itis now conducted directly between Portiand, Me., and Minneapolis, a distanc: of 1500 or 1600 miles.” The wire used between San Francisco and Los Angeles weighs 520 pounds to the mile. The poles, placed fifty to the mile, cost about $20 each. The wire is worth 16} cents a pound. The cost of setting the poles, etc., brings up the total cost of construction per mile to $1500. The life of a $20 pole is from ten to twelve vears. In the telephone business the company is not bound by the law of liability which avplies to the telegraph service. sually the persons conducting the conversation know each other’s voice. Whatis said 1n the conversation over the wire is known only to the persons talking. When the parties are connected the responsibiiity of the telephone company ends. MERCHANTS' A-SOCIATION.
