8 LONG SOLITUDE FOR WINTHROP “Amen!” He Said to a Life Sentence to San Quentin, THE PRISONER’S SPEECH The Supreme Court Granted a Ten Days’ Stay of Exe- cution. JUDGE WALLACE DENIED IT, Winthrop Claimed His Trial Was Unfair and ThatJurors Were Bulldozed. Oliver Winfield Winthrop will have plenty of time in which to meditate on the folly of kidnaping rich men and torturing them for their money. He will spend the remainder of his natural life in San Quentin State prison. The crack of doom in his case was bowed to the court and sat down. The at- tendants close to the dock say that Win- throp said mockingly and in a low tone: “Amen!"”’ The Judge called the next case. The man who decoyed and tortured William James Campbell in the California-street cottage a few weeks ago was shackled to a common prisoner and led away to jail. In the afternoon Attorney Bell secur from the Supreme Court a stay of execu- tionfortendays. BAD BENEVOLENCE. Members of the German Council of the United World Want It Dis- solved. August Euler, Victor Soderburg and eight other members of the German Councit of the United orld have applied to the Superior Court for an order dissolving the defendant society and dis- tributing among the members the money in its treasury. 5 Itis alleged in the complaint that the society is not legally incorporated and thatit is organized solely for the purpose of preying en the unfortunates who have be- come members. The Supreme Council is said to have but one member, namely, Michael C. Brooks, who is said to have diverted to his own use the money paid in for dues and assessments. The plaintiffs further allege that at a meeting held June 9, 1896, they protested against the manner in which its affairs ;velrle being run and were ejected from the all. ————— ilicit Opium Still Captured. The case of Lee Ong Guey, arrested some days ago by Revenue Officers Cromwell and Thomas, on & charge of running an illicit opium still, was set for trial by Judge Morrow on October 13. Six weeks ago Guey’s place at 843 Washington street was raided b{ the offi- cers and a periect opium manufacturing plant discovered. The arrest was kept quiet for sev- eral weeks, under the impression that others might be implicated in the affair. It now de- velops that the Chinese is the only offender. sounded shortly after 10 o’clock yesterday morning by Judge Wallace in Department 6 of the Superior Court. Winthrop’s great nerve Stood by him to the end. As the court pronounced the sentence the pris- oner choked back a great lump that rose up in his throat. Attorney Bell, for the prisoner, asked for a stay of sentence. He wanted more time in which to prepare to argue a mo- tion for a new trial. Attorney Bell said he had recently discovered evidence on Judge Wallace Scntencir;; Oliver W. Winthrop to Prison for Life. which to base the motion. This evidencg he said, was in relation to the witness Urquhart, who had sworn on cross-exam- ination, that he had never been convicted of a felony, when the attorney said he had since learned that the witness had been so convicted. He also alleged ‘‘miscon- duct of one or more jurors.”” Important aflidavits, be said, were on the way here from Manitoba. Judge Wallace overruled all the mo- tions for a stay and a new trial. One of the grounds for so doing was that he thought there was plenty of evidence to convict the prisoner without Urquhart’s testimony. v Turning to Winthrop Judge Wallace said: *Have you anything to say why judgment should not be pronounced ?” V\Fnthrop rose to his feet. His face was white and earnest, but composed. Every eye in a crowded courtroom was riveted on one of the most remarkable criminals of modern times. In & strong, clear voice he answered the Judge, saying, “I bave.” He was about to proceed when Attorney Bell interrupted and made 2 sign to Win- throp to sit down. He said, “Hold on!” Then Attorney Bell made a motion for anew trial on statutory grounds, which was overruled. District Attorney Barnes addressed the court in opposition to the motion. Winthrop's turn came again. He said: “I have, your Honor. In the first place, before I came here for trial I was tried, convicted and sentenced by the newspapers of this community. I have not had a fair trial. The prosecuting attorney bulldozed the jury. e told them they were not fit to sit in a court of justice if they did not convict me. After I was arrested I was ersecuted to the full extent by the Police Bensrtment.” Here Winthrop looked around the court- room and let his gaze rest a moment on Captain Lees. “My friends were denied me,’”” he went on. “They were even arrested. One ot the most honest and purest citizens of this town was dogged into the detectives’ room. ‘When I came into_ this courtrcom I was pleased to see that I wounld be tried before your Honor, for I knew that I would get the benefit of the law.” Winthrop paused a moment, as though to-sit down, but continued: “I am mnot guilty of this crime. There are material witnesses who are able to prove this. It will not be long before they can be had. Your Honor knows how it is when an inexperienced woman goes out to hunt up witnesses. My wifc has besn trying to find these witnesses.” Judge Wallace repliéd that he thought the prisoner had had a fair trial and that no complaint of lack of time was made when the case was set for trial. He could not see wherein the prosecution had bull- dozed the jury. “If this can- be done,’ said the court, “‘the jury system had bet- ter be_ abolished.” 'Facing Winthrop Jndge Wallace concluded with these s: “The sentence of the court is that you be confined in the State Prison at San Q‘ue'x'n.in for the remainder of your natural Life. Winthrop flushed and then paled. He aid not seem to expect such a long term of solitude. He looked nonplussed for just a fraction of s second. Then he PHITERS MAKE PROTEST They Prevent the Awarding of the Great Register Contract. The Lowest Bidder Thought to Be Inclined to Employ Non-Union Typesetters. The vigorous protests of members of the Typographical and Pressmen’s unions, as well as the objections of a large number of boss printers, prevented the Election Commissioners from awarding the con- tract for the great register yesterday. The pids opened were as follows: Hicks, Judd & Co., 4024 cents per name; Filmer-Rollins. Electro Company, 41 cents; Frank Eastman & Co., 42 cents; Heringhi, 293 cents; W. J. Sterrett, 3514 cents; H. 8. Crocker & Co., 41 cents. The bid of E. Heringhi was at once pro- nounced by the proprietors of printing officés present as preposterous if the work was done in the manner the board would certainly wish it done. They insisted that if Heringhi got out the register at that figure he would have to employ non-union labor or take it to some interior point where work was cheap, thus depriving San Francisco printers of a large amount of work. The proprietors pointed out they were old-established firms, paid. taxes and em- ployed scores of men, paying union wages. They mentioned that Heringhi Wwas not & job printer and that he kept a sort of a pawnshop ai 213 and 215 Pine street, and in no way was connected with this line of business. Herinehi said it did not concern the commission how and where he did the work. His money was up anc as long as he turned out a'register according to speci- fications he was entitled to the contract. Aiter listening to protests from umnion men, who called attention to the action of the Board of Health in refusing to em ploy any but union labor in whitening and ainting schoolhouses, it was decided to y the matter over until to-day to give an opportunity for investigation. —————— Defends the Cierks.

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1896. WELL UNDER THE DOLLAR LIMIT Supervisors Fix the Tax Levy for Municipal Purposes. - MARKET STREET LOST. The Main Business Thoroughfare Will Not Be Repaved Now. BOARD OF HEALTH RAISED. Thirty Thousand Dollars Added to Its Appropriations—The Rate Is Now g6.92. The Board of Supervisors fixed the tax levy for municipal purposes at 96.92 cents on the $100 yesterday, and thus set at rest the hopes of those who wanted Market street repaved, and the fears of others who thought that the Mission would lose the high school for which it battled so valieatly. The matter came up in the form of the following resolution, the expert of the board having computed the rate on the basis of $418,000,000 valuation: Under and in pursuance of acts of ‘the Legis- lature of the State of California, and in con- formity thereto, and under and in pursuance of yarious municipal orders and ordinances, and in conformity thereto, there is herecy levied a tax for City and County purposes, for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1897, on all property. both realaud personal, in the City and County of San Francisco, excepting such property as is by law exempt from taxation, and the sum of 96.20 centson each $100 valua- tion, as aforesaid, is hereby apportioned to the ;unfls and accounts known and designated as ollows : General fund 56.85, street light fund 07.18, Street Department fund 10.50, school fund 12.56, library fund 01.25, park improvement fund 05.93, interest account park improve- ment bonds 00.67, interest account City Hall construction bonds 00.10, sinking fund City Hall coastruction bonds 00.67, sinking fund park improvement bonds, 1872, 1878, 00.26, sinking fund park improvement bonds, 1874, 1875, 00.23. Supervisor Spreckels at onece offered the following resolution: Resolved, That $30,000 is hereby appropri- ated to be used by the Board of Health of this City for the purposes of that board in addition to the amounts allowed in the report of the Finance Committee of this board filed August 3, 1896, and fixed by this board on that date. Supervisor Taylor opposed the measure, using strong terms in denouncing any and all attempts to increase the amount of tax- ation, but the resolution carried neverthe- less. Supervisor Wagner offered a resolution appropriating $150,000 for the repaving with some noiseless substance of Market street from the city front to Sixteenth street. The measure was lost by the following vote: Ayes—King, Morgenstern, Wagner. Excused—Taylor, Dimond. - Noes—Scully, Hirsch, Spreckels, Hobbs. A like fate met Supervisor King’s effort to give the City and County Hospital an additional $6000, and the original resolu- tion, with the addition of the Board of Health’e $30,000, was adopted. It was de- cided to add the 72 milis called for by the $30,000 to the general fund, bringing the levy for that purpose up to 57.57 and the Hughes, Dunker, total levy for City and County purposes ! to 96.92. Tuve National Athletic Club sent in a petition to be allowed to givea ten-round boxing exhibition during the month of November. A resolution offered by Supervisor Di- mond, employing J. F. Sullivan and J. H. Meredith as special counsel to appear be- fore the United States Supreme Court in the case of Delaney against the City and County of San Francisco, was carried, the compensation being fixed at $750 for a re- tainer, a like sum to be paid in case of success. A petition of the executive committee of the Golden Gate Carnival for permission to give a series of boxing and wrestling contests of a limited number of rounds at the People’s Palace on the evening of October 2 was referred to the Health and Police Committee. A resolution offered by Supervisor Tay- lor denouncing. Messrs. Morehouse, Beamer and Arnold of the State Board of Equalization for raising San Francisco valuations and commending A. Chese- brough, the San Francisco member, for the stand he took against the raise, was passed. iy ool STREET IMPROVEMENTS. Complete Record of the Str Work Befors the Board Yesterday.
