THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1896. / P WHO REPRESENTS THE NEGRO RACE? The Board of Works Dis- misses a Gardener and Creates a Feud. The Ladies Stand by Pearson, but Delaney Has Captured the Plum. MEETING TO BE CALLED. Social Rivalry, Politics and a Legis- lative Ambition Figure in the Struggle. OaxzaND OrFicE SAN FrRANCISCO CALL, 908 Broadway, Sept. 30. } Thomas Pearson, the leading factor in tion of the Colored Folks’ as landscape gardener in fafayette Park, and William Delaney, another colored man, has been appointed. le has resulted, the more smuch as the ladies have de- their determination to stand by on in the hour of his distress. change in the gardenership of a pub- re, although it precipitated the his position present unrest in the race, is the smallest It has troubled colored socie center, has been n of the colored people in San sco is also interested in the matter. a long time there !ave been two of local colored socie Pearson and the Colored Folks' Home ladies have represented one side and Mr. Wilson, tor.of the Elevator, ana Delaney have ptained the other wing. A short time ago a petition was pre- sentéd to the Board of Public Works by the friends of Mr. Delaney, stating that Mr. Pearson was not a representative man of the race, and asking that Mr, Delan y be appointed keeper of the cacti of Lafayette Park. That petition is at the root of ail the trouble. The salary of the job is altogether insignificant com- pared to thé honor of being “the repre- sentative man of the race.”” Whether the petition had anv weight or not does not appear on the minute-book of the board, but the appointment of Delany, vice Pear- son, retired, does appear. Pearson recently filed his petition with e County Clerk, and will be placed on the fe ticket as an independent candidate eAssembly. This piece of ambition part is said by his friends to have caused His downfall. Anyhow, a huge petition is now being circulated by his friends, and the signatures to it are al- ready over seven feet long, and Pearson declares that it will be long enough to stretch from the board room to the park. Mrs. Cy Jackson is determined that Mr. on shall be vindicated by the Ladies’ xiliary of the Colored Folks’ Home As- sociation, of which she is a member. The ladies will hold a parlor meeting shortly and decide upon a plan to help Pearson. Menntime, Delaney is training the cacti, mowing the grass and drawing the warrant as gardener of Lafayette Park.

OF LICEWSING The Merchants’ Exchange Finds | Its Weapon Used Against Itself. Coal-Dealers Want the Privilege of Selling Coal to the Employes of the Southern Pac:fic OAxLAND OFFICE 8AN FrANCISCO CALL.* 908 Broadway, Sept. 30, Frank R. Girard, an ex-director of the Merchants’ Exchange ana one of the most active merchants of this city, caused a surprise to that body at last night’s meet- ing by sending- the following resignatio To the Merchants' Exchange : I hereby tender my resignation 8s a member of the exchange for the reason that my business is more in- jured than benefited by your coustant agita- tion of licenses; my renting business in Berk ley, formerly good, being fuily as good there asin Oakland. I am told by a merchant of Berkeley that they have followea the lead of Oakland in raising the license, and, as I can- | not afford to pay $100 for my team, I will have to discontinue my business there. Very re- spectfully yours, F. R. GIRARD. One of the chief reasons for the organi- zation of the exchange was to secure the passage of a license ordinance that would keep outside merchants from coming into Oakland and doing business. After sev- eral arrests bad been made the San Fran- cisco firms opened branch stores in this city and tbus avoided the hizh license. The next trouble came when some Oak- land back-drivers were arrested in Ala- meda for not having a liceuse to do busi- ness in that city. The Alameda ordi- nance requires all expressmen and car- riage-owners to take out a license if they erter that city. The latest difficulty comes .from Berke- ley. The Town Trustees passed a license ordinance to-night that provides for a license of $100 per quarter on all parties doing business in Berkeley who have not a fixed place of business in that eity. At the meeting of the Oakland Merchants’ Exchange last night this matter was dis- cussed, but as the local merchants have been anxicus to secure the same protec- tion that Berkeley now seeks, no com- plaint was made. Another very interesting subject was brought up. L. N. Hager of the Coal- dealers’ Association asked that the ex- change co-operate with the coal-dealers in trying to induce the Southern Pacific Company to cease selling coal to its em- vloyes. An employe of the company stated to- day that the Southern Pacific had made a practice for years of seiling their em- ployes sufficient coal for their personal use at cost price, It is this practice that the association is anxious to stop. ‘Will Consent to a Divorce.

Before its birrh Keene deserted his wife and she was taken to the City and County Hospital.

The plaintiftsin the case aro heirs of Lucy Goodspeea and simply wish to terminate the trust formed by the deceased. Sidmb e WANT ANOTHER JUDGE. | e A 3 Noe Heirs Say Judge Sanderson Is Dis- qualified From Trying Their C Vincent Noe and other plaintiffs in the celebratéd Mission land suits yesterday filed an affidavit in the County Clerk’s of- fice asking that their case, which comes up to-day, be not tried before Judge San- derson. It is alleged that two of the attorneys for the defense, G. W. and Franklin K. Lane, are relatives of Judge Sanderson within the third degree prescribed by law. It is also said that his Honor is a candi- | date for office on the ticket of a party in the platform of which is included a plank which specifically deciares against the plaintiffs, and that, as Judge Sanderson | bas pledged himself to support that plat- | form, he is consequently hostile to the | Noes. The plank complained ot isquuted in th- affidavit as foliows: Land fitles—We condemn energetically -the efforts recently made in our courts to revive claims against real property long since barred by the statute of limitations, MIDWEEK THEATER NOTES Continued Success of the Royal Hawaiian Band at the Orpheum Music-Lovers F ock to H:ar the Sinz- ing of the Hiwaiian Glee C ub. A large number of music lovers are being attracted to the Orpheum this week | by the music of the Hawaiian National band. Under the leadership of Professor J. 8. Libornio this excellent band of mu- sicians gives a change of programme at each performance, and the varied music contains numbers which are calculated to appeal to all classes of music lovers. | Last night one of the features of the performance was a brilliantly rendered fantasia on Gounod's “Faust.” The Royal Hawaiian Glee Club, how- ever, eclipses in populazity the perform- ances of the band. Every one knows that | there is a natural charm and sweetness about the singing of nstives of Hawaii, and the vocalists of the band sing their duets, quartets, quintets and choruses in a way which is well calculated to sustain | the national reputation. The glee club has to respond every night to a number of encores. The Carpo Brothers, a team of remark- | ably skilliul acrobats, are_the star feature | of the veudeviile bill this week. Master Walter Leon, the child actor and mimic, 18 as popular as ever, Riley and Huges are amusing plantation dancers and come- dians, and clever little Marguerite Fergu- son is still on the bill, Lew Hawkes, the cork-blacked singing and talking comedian, amuses the audi- ence in his own clever and humorous way. He has come back with a number of new jokes, which are thoroughly appreciated by the audience. Anna Suits, the comedienne and vocal- ist, is a San Francisco garl who has come back from an Eastern tour, and whose many friends in this City have not for- gotten her. The bill is completed by Ferguson and Mack, the kunockabout comedians, who make plenty of hilarity. There will be only a few more -per- formances of “Lost Paradise’ at the Co- lumbia Theater by the Frawiey Company. On Monday next *Trilby” will be pre- sented by the company that includes Edith Crane, Jennie Reiffarth, Charles Kent, Herbers Carr and E. W, Morrison. A good even performance of *‘School” is being given at the Alcazar this week. One of the prettiest bits of lovemaking seen on the local staze for some time ig that between John T. Sullivan as Lord Beaufoy and May Buckley as Bella. “Bhadows of a Great City” is filling the Grand at every performance. The melo- drama is a stirring one and is well acted. “Aida” will run to the end of the week at the Tivoli Opera-house, after which the grand opera season will come to an end, On Monday “Satanella’” will be revived. The reopening of the Bald'win Theater will be insugurated next Monday night with the presentation of Daniel Frohman's New York success, “The Prisoner of BUTTERWORTH COMIG Berkeley’s Coach Is Expected to Reach the State To-Day.

The testimony for the plaintiff in the damage suit filed against the Southern Pacific Company by the father of Amy Quill, the little girl who was killed by a Berkeley train, was concluded yesterday. So far nine witnesses have been examined. It was expected that some sensational evidence would be given, inasmueh as it was claimed that bribery and other methods of influencing witnesses had been resorted to by the defense. The sensation, bowever, hasso far failed to materialize. Some of the witnesses for the railroad will be heard to-day, and as there are fifteen of them, it will probably take all week to finish the case. —_———— GENERAL MILES’ ESCAPE. His Close Call From = Serious Acci- dent on the Cliff House, Road. Coming in from the Cliff House yester- day afternoon Major-General Miles and wife and Colonel A. 8. Kimball and wife narrowly escaped a serious accident. They were in an open carriage drawn by two horses, coming down the hill toward the Park and Ocean Railroad, when one of the horses began rearing and kicking. The carriage pole was broken and the driver was thrown from his piace and run over. The horses started to run, but no one jumped from the carriage. he team was checked by men in the vicinity before the horses had run fifty yards. The broken carriage was left at the scene of the mis- h:r and the party boarded the cars for the Palace' Hotel. The driver was somewhat bruised, but not dangerously turt. The team belongs to the United Carriage Company, and the pole had recently been strengthened with a view to averting ac- cidents of this character, The good be- havior of one of the horses probably averted a serious runaway. General Miles and party left the City on the evening train for Los Angeles. e g X. M. C. A, School. This evening the educational course of the Y. M, C.

Mrs. From Does Not Believe Her Child Will Do Right if Released. 1S RETURNED TO HIS CELL Urgent Need of a He'ping Hand Being Extended to Waifs Who Find Their Way to Prison. 0OAxLAND OFrIcE SAN FRANCISCO CAu.} 908 Broad way, Sept. 30. Little Gus From, 10 years of age, was the center of a scene in the Police Court this morning that caused the lobby to wonder and murmur. It made very plain the need of a place for young children charged with crime, such as Chief Lioyd referred to in his recent address to the City Chris- tian Endeavor Union. The lad was arrested at the instigation of his mother, who says he is incorrigible and a young thief. Whatever may be the boy’s faults, it was very apparent that he has a good side to his nature, and that he is not so far depraved as to be incapable of reform. He was brought into court from the cell in which he was placed late Monday night, when he was arrested, and when he saw his mother sitting in the courtroom he rushed up to her, and, with tears and sobs, begged her to take him home and he would do better. “Oh, mamma,” the child cried, “take me home again and I will be a good boy.” “You'll have to keep still, said Bailiff Mitchell, “or I will take you downstairs.” At the mention of downstairs the child shuddered and said, between his sobs, “Oh, mister, I will be good if you won't take me down.” The mother had not sworn to a com- plaint so_the case went over till to-mor- row. Officer Curtiss had great difficulty in taking the child away from his mother, and when at the door leading downstairs the voice of the unbappy child could be heard in the courtroom as he cried, “Please let me go and kiss my mother good-by,”” but his request was not granted and he went downstairs. There is nothing but a cell in the City Prison for children, no matter why they are arrested, and even a lost child must be placed in a cell till called for, unless some one can be found to take him or ber to a home. No provision exists for girls who may not have taken the first downward step but who may be arrested for vagrancy because of their compgnio To all such cases Oakland offers a criminal’s cell, and Chief Lloyd’s humanity is touched that it should be so. “Little From, I am told, is quite a bad boy,’’ said Chief Lioyd this afternoon; “but still the prison is no place for him. I had him put in the most comfortable cell, which is all that could be done. Had he been taken in hand the first time he was in trouble he might never have done wrong again. When a chiid realizes that he is locked up in a common prisoner's cell the first step toward hekpinfi to make him a criminal has been taken. DIRT CHEAP DELEGATES, Disreputable Methods of Kelly and Mahoney at Their *“ Convention.” Strangers Readily Admitted to Vote. Two-Dollar Men Protest Against Non-Payment. Should any doubt remain as to the fraudulent and illegitimate nature of the so-called Kelly-Mahoney ‘‘convention,” it will be set at rest by the revelations that are coming to light. Volunteers are com- ing forward with startling stories of brazen methods openly used by the Siam- ese twin bosses of shameless effrontery. It is openly admitted that ‘‘delegates” were paid $2 a night each to sit in the “convention.” Pay was good the first night, but on the second grass was short and there was growling among ‘‘the push,” In fact, there was a movement to strike and bolt unless the promised pay- ment was made good, but the bosses exe- cuted a masterly flank movement with steam-beer. Malcontent ringleaders were beguiled from the hall and mellowed with amber schooners, and peace was thus cheaply secured. An outsider was asked to get 8 nomina- tion by this ‘convention” for a friend. The man applied to objected on the score of not being a delegate nor possessing a proxy. Nevertheless he consented to in- vestigate the possibility. On arriving at the Auditorium the stranger was hospitably received by a boss, and on explaining his purpose was welcomed as if it were of ordinary occur- rence. “But,” said the gentleman, “Iam not a delegate and have no proxy!" “Never mind,”’ said the boss, ‘'go and sit over in my district delegation " The gentleman went over somewhat timidly, but was reassured by his rece tion. While there he was paralyzed by the shameless manner in which ‘‘delega- tions,’” represented by six members, were voted *‘all present.” ‘When nominations for his friend’s posi- tion were called for, the pseudo-delegate of the Forty-fourth mounted the ania an placing his friend in nomination, chuekl to see him nominated by acclamation. “‘Any respectable-looking man, delegate or not, can nominate a man here,” he was confidently informed by another ‘‘dele- gate.” I S DEMOCRATS FOR McKINLEY Publisher of the Pythlan Organ Wil Vote for Protection.

Woodward & Co. Will Yet Get Out the Register of Voters. According to Thomas P. Woodward, who constitutes the printing firm of W. A. Woodward & Co. of 12 Sutter street, a gigantic combination of printers, paper- dealers and type-founders has been en- deavoring ever since last Friday, when he was awarded the contract for printing the great register, to ruin him by preventing him from carrying out his contract. I was told before I submitted a bid that I was to be done up,” saia Mr. Wood- ward, “but after figuring the matter out I concluded that I could not only get the register out on time and according to con- tract, but also make a good profit out of the job, and so bid as I did. “The only thing I have not arranged for in the way of materials is ink, and I know where there are hundreds of pounds to be had for the asking and a check.

Just how the accident occurred no one seems to know, for Lallemont was found 1ying dead in & kind of dry well between the two main houses.
