14 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1896. POKING AMONG THE JUTE BAGS Governor Budd- and the Prison Board Make Investigations. Impending Shake-Up in the San Quentin Convict Mill PROBABLE LOPPING OF HEADS. The Directors Are Not Satisfied With the Way the Factory Has Been Running. Governor Budd and tne full board of Prison Directors spent the entire day at San Quentin prison yesterdsy, ostensibly investigating the case of the Cummings boys, whom the Governor recently re- spited until Octover 30, and some other cases of parole and pardon. In reality, however, his visit was to make an inspec- tion and investigation of the saffairs of the jutemill, and as a result of this visit yes- day there will be a lopping off of heads at the next regular meeting of the boara that will bring consternation into the ranks of the higher officials of that prison indus- try as well as into the working forces who are under salary. The Governor also took a ride over the five miles of the completed portion of the fourteen miles of the proposed boulevard between San Rafael and Tiburon. Then he acted as a sort of host to a party of visitors from Los Angeles who accompa- nied the Governor trom San Francisco, and who made a tour of the prison. Alto- gether it was a busy day for the Governor, but despite the onerousness of tbe duties which he imposed upon himself yester- day, he was modest withal about it and did not permi: his left hand to know what his right was doing. In other words, the proceedings of the special session of the board was not intended to be made public. In fact it was intended to be of an execu- tive character, its business being not to act on any proposition, but simply to lay the groundwork for some very important future action. Last December with a view to improv- ing the system of operation in the jute- miu and increasing its product thereby, the wovernor appointed John Rutherford as superintendent in place of the former official who acted in that capacity, and also replaced the old spinners with a new cor! No improvement was perceived despite the sweeping changes that had been made but the Governorand the mem- bers of the board decided to abide in pa- tience for a while and give the new force every opportanity to make a showing. But the passing of time only left matters in a worse condition. Results only were looked after and these were far from satis- factory. In fact the output of the jutemill to-day is even less than it was under the former regime. Patience at last ceased to be a virtue, and so yesterday the Governor took a day on to go through the mill and make a per- sonal inspection of it. What he and the directors saw crystallized their purpose, and when the board next meets in regu- lar session, which wili be on the second Saturday in November, there will be a complete turning out and over of the sal- aried force in the jutemill with perhaps a few exceptions. Four cases of commutations and par- dons were also discussed by the board. The most important of these was the case of the Cummings boys, who were con- victed of the murder of an old man named Narramore, near Riverside, and sentenced to be hanged on September 25. On Sep- tember 24, however, the doomed men were respited until the 30th inst. Havin: mentally disposed of the jute- mill matter, the Governor had a long talk with Ceesar and Jobn W. Cummings, and was visibly impressed with their story. It isthe general impression that the result of the Governor’s interview with the boys will be another respite on the 30th and then a commutation of the death penalty to life imprisonment. Another case that was considered at length was that of John Henley, con- victed of murderin the second degree in Humboldt County. He was sentenced to life imprisonment twenty-one years ago. His conduct since has been of the most exemplary character. He is pronounced to be one of the best prisoners ever con- fined within the walis of the San Quentin prison. His sentence wiil probably be reduced to thirty-three years and some months, which with the credits deducted will make him a free man when the board holds its next session. The case of Thomas Sullivan, sentenced to a long term on conviction of robbery in Kern County, was heard, but the prison- er’s defiant manner aid not favorably im- press the board. The fourth case th was considered was that of Rajinski, convicted of arson in San Francisco. He has become a hope- less cripple in jail. Great interest has been shown in his case by the Jewish veople of S8an Francisco, where the con- victed man left a wife ard two children. A letter has been received by the board from the brother of the prisoner, who is a wealthy manufacturer in Pennsylvania, in which the brosher agrees to take care of his relative and his family, pay their ex- penses to Pennsylvania, ana see that the convicted man does not return to Cali- fornia, His case will in all probability re- ceive favorable consideration, and his par- don be made out at the boara’s next meet- ing. Among the party which accompanied the Governor to 8an Quentin were: John W. Mitchell ana wife of Los Angeles, A. W. Foster, president of the San Francisco and North Pacific Railroad, and Labor Commissioner E. L. Fitzgerald. After the party had driven over the new boulevard NEW TO-DAY.

FOR A NEW CHURCH. The Sacred Heart Bazaar in Armory Hall Likely to Prove a Suc- cess. The bazaarin axd of the Sacred Heart Church, now being held in Armory Hall, on the corner of Gough and Page streets, bids fair to successfully attain the end for which it was arranged. The steady at- tendance during the week has induced those in charge to keep the bazaar open another week. Last evening 1t was St. Joseph’s booth night “at home’ and a neat and selected programme was rendered. To-night sev- eral new features will be added to the bazaar. The saber contest among the various League of the Cross officers is still an ex- cmuf affair, over 1000 votes having been cast for the various officers. A most successful contest for a gold watch among the young ladies also de- mands the attention of all. Miss Clara Fay is in the lead, with Miss Byrne a close second. The various booths are tastefully ar- ranged, and contain articles that are both ornamental and useful. Lunch is served by the young ladies from 12 to 2 o’clock daily. The refreshment booth attendants beg leave to announce that they will serve a tamale supper this evening. Thedyonng men have successfully ar- ranged a paper known as The Daily Recora, containing all the fair's news. It comprises; eight good-sized pages of ex- cellent reading matter. Father Flood requests all that are in sympathy with his movement—the build- ing of the new church—to visit the festival and financially aid the ladies in charge. GAS COMPANY'SNEW HOME A Classical Edifice of White Brick, Terra Cotta and Marble, Expectation That the Offices Will Be Ready for Use by the Early Part of Next Year. It is expected that by the 1st of Feb- ruary, 1897, the new home of the San FATHER MATHEW'S DAY CELEBRATED The League of the Cross Honors the Hero's Memory. Metropolitan Hall Crowded With Sympathizers in the Move- ment. CHIEF OFFICERS INSTALLED. The Rev. Peter C. Yorke Addresses the Meeting in Place of the Vicar-General. The annual celebration of Father Mathew’s day was held iastevening in Metropolitan Hall by the League of the Cross. It was in every respect a splendid commemoration of the birth of the great Irish apostle of temperance. The hall was beautifully decorated with gilded draperies and National streamers and flags which combined with tricolor bunt- ing, and the platiorm was a mass of Amer- ican flags, leaving an impression of stars and stripes amid evergreens. Galleries and the main floor were crowded from the stage to the doors. The greatest enthu- siasm prevailed throughout the exer- cises. On the stage were the officers of the League of the Cross Cadets and members of the league’s executive committee. Frank Murasky occupied the chair, with the Rev. Peter C. Yorke on one side and Thomas H. Fallon, president of the league, on the other. After a_brilliant organ solo by Miss Mari Giorigana President Fallon called the meeting to order. Inhis introductory ad- dress he made an annual report on the work of the League of the Cross. Seventy- two mass-meetings had been held during the year, not including the society’s meet- ings and cadet gatherings. The society has 8000 members and 800 cadets. Mr. Fallon announced that the Ve Rev. J.J. Prendergast,V. G.. was unavoid- Cunningham was installed as treasurer, in which connection the finances of the league were considered. Father Yorke added it was a remarka- ble fact that the league was organized and maintained without a tax on its members. Bishop Montgomery, he said, was a very hopeful character,” because he believed that when Catholic people saw the league grow and numter thousands they would contribute liberally toward its support. Bat the one sad thing about the society was that the people of San Francisco never thought of contributing or assisting the society n any material way. In con- clusion he described the aims and objects of the league—that it is a society which exacts a pledge from its members tiil they have reached the age of 21 years, on the principle tuat the boy trained to grow up in the right way will not leave it in after years. Father Yorke declared in eloquent lan- guage that the league was a socity in which every man, Protestant and Catho- lic, could take a deep interest, and this thought led him into a plea for fellowship, for harmony of all creeds in the cause of tegflpertnu, charity, doing good. He said : “In these days of division, in these days of controversy, it is good to have one place where we'can look. What good has been this religious rancor that has distvrbed the City for the past two years? Would it not be better, instead of setting brotber against brother on account of creed, to stand togetner and to work shoulder to shoulder doing good? We have held more than seventy meetings, and in not one of them can it be said that we have said one word against any member of any other church,” ‘When the eloquent address was con- cluded and Father Yorke took his seat the audience applanded heartily for along time. The Hon. F. J. Murasky delivered a eulogy of Father Mathew. The musical numbers on the programme were very enjoyable. W.J. Hynes sang comic songs; Miss A. Roney sang ‘‘Let Me Dream Again” and Matt Greannan gave a cornet solo. In closing the meet- ing “America” was sung by the whole audience. DELEGATES APPOINTED. The Labor Council’s Representatives at the Big Meeting To-Morrow. At its regular meeting last night, the San Francisco Labor Council received an invitation from the district council of the Carpenters’ Union to send delegates to participate in a labor conveniion to be held at 8151 Market street to-morrow morning at 10 o’clock. John Hill, W. Macarthur and C. E. Hawkes were ap- pointed as delegates to the big meeting. Delegates pricked up their ears a littie when the secretary began reading a com- munication from the National Demo- cratic Committee, and signed by Chair- man James K. Jones.

Francisco Gas and .Electric Company will be ready for occupancy. Already the handsome building has reached the upper cornice, and in & very short time the roof will be put on, after which the work of completing and decorating the interior will be commenced. The location for the new building has been happily selected, the site on Post street, above Powell, being central, while at the same time removed from the din of the main business thoroughfares. The edifice will consist of three floors and a basement. The basement and first floor will be faced with white granite. In the basement will be the stores of the gas- stove department, the first floor being oc- cupied by the public offices. The second floor will be devoted to rooms for the directors, stockholders, en- gineers and draughtsmen, while the upper floor is destined for the accommodation of collectors, billmakers and other clerical employes. The two upper floors will be faced in white brick with white terra cotta col- umns, pilasters and window-casings. The general aspect of the facade will be Ro- man, the columns being fluted with Doric capitals. The woodwork of the interior is 1o be in oak with bronze trimmings. Mar- ble wainscoting to the height of six feet will line all the walls, and the floors will be of fancy tiling and marble mosaic. ‘Work on this handsome new building is being prosecuted as rapidly as is consist- ent with the requisite thoroughness, and roperty-owners in the vicinity are jubi- ant over the prospect that the imposing edifice :will contribute to heighten the value of their holdings.

Ellen Nyhan yesterday filed a contest to the probate of the will of her brother, John Mc- Carthy, who died on Septomber 25, leaving all his property to his brother, Denuy McCarthy, It is alleged by the complainant,on behalf of herself and relatives, that the testator was not of sound mind and was acling under duress when the will was made. ————— Third Street—Nolan’s Must Vacate.

Father Yorke said that owing to the in- disposition of Father Prendergast, to speak on this occasion and install the officers was his pleasant duty. - He said that the objects and aims of the League of the Cross are such as on which all men agree. It is established to do good to the rising gene- ration of this City—to train the boys to be good temperate citizens and to give to this town a race of men that would need no new charter to keep them straight. The speaker was interrupted by wild applause. “There is behind the figures.”” he con- tinued, referring to President Fallon’s re- port, ‘‘a lesson of work and endeavor, and a story of toil and devotion that are more eloquent than the words of any speaker. There is not a week in which gatherings are not held in which the boys are told of the evils of intemperance, and instructed in their duiies and urged to keep the ledge till they reach the age of 21 years.” ather Yorke paid a tribute to the earnest and tireless work of Father O'Ryan, the sEiril\ml director of the society, and to the executive committee. “You see it in this society, the largest, the best, the most successful temperance society in this City or in any city of the TUnion. “It becomes my duty in the absence of the Most Reverend Archbishop and the vicar-general to perform the pleasant dty of installing the executive officers of the League of the Cross. I hope you will ex- case me if I fall into the convention habit if I say a few words for Mr. Fallon.” He spoke of the president’s work and devo- tion and declared that Mr. Fallon was for fiars the beginning and the end of the eajue of the Cross. “I have it from Bishop Montgomery, and I can say it my- self, that there would have been no League of the Cross were it not for Tom Fallon.” Mr. Fallon was installed, and Father Yorke remarked that the vice-president's office had been retained by A. B. Maguire, who, he said, had be'n foremost in every movement looking to the material im- Eyovement of the people of this City, and is most zealous work was 1n the cause of temperance. ‘ The recording secretary, T. R. Curtis, was spoken of as untiring in his devotion to the cause, not alone in his own district, but in the larger work of the general com- mittee. Father Yorke said ie was glad to have this opportunity to aunounce to the public the good work they do. The corresponding secretary, W. A. Bresim, was introduced as coming from the district where the league was strong- est, and he was installed with the injunc- tion not to spare Uncle Sam’s mails with notices and correspondence. Dr. 8.

Worden, sentenced to death for causing the death of Engineer Clark in the American Railway Union strike in 1894 in the train wreck at Sacra- mento, reported that he had been to Woodland to see Attorney Bush about the case and about petitions for commutation. He reported that Worden was under the influence of liquor before and during his trial; that his attorneys could get very little information or assistance from him; that his alleged accomplices were all ac- quitted ; that Worden did not have a fair rial, and that Governor Budd had con- sented to give an entire day to hearing further petition for commutation. It was reported that James H. Barry would at- tend In behalf of the commutation, and that an effort would be made to get Con- gressman Maguire to go also. e —————— Heavy Damages Asked. One of the largest patent suits recorded on the coast for years was yesterday filed in the United States Circuit Court by Herman Cra- mer of Sonora against the Singer Manufactur- ing Compapy. Cramer claims that he is the inventor of an improvement in treadles for sewing machines and that the same was pat- ented in 1883. Regardless of this, however, the Singer Company has continued to use his patent without thé consent of the patentee. Cramer now seeks an injunction and further asks that damages to the extent of $250,000 be awarded him. —_————————— An Insolvent Furniture Company. Judge Slack yesterday adjudged the San Francisce Furniture Company to be insolvent. Some time ago the company was forced into involuntary insolvency, but the order was subsequently modified "to the extent of dis missing the request for the appointment of & receiver. When the matter came up in court {enerdly, the respondent failed to appear and n consequence his Honor adjudged the com- pany to be insolvent. Father Yorke to Lecture. Rev. P. C.

The admission is 50 cents. —————— RATIFICATION of the Demoecratic municipal ticket to-nightat 0dd Fellows' Hall, ot [LIBEL NAILED BY THE GRMD JURY Campaign Banner Which Excited the Ire of Police Judge Low. The Candidate Is Accused of Favoring the Employment of Chinese. AN INDICTMENT FOR LIBEL J. Millard Authorized the Lettering and Display of the Campaign Device. The Grand Jury met yesterday after- noon. Work in the line of appointing committees was begun, but not finished. Frederick Hobbs, the foreman, wants to please all the jurors in the assignments for committee service and will probably gain as much success as his predecessors achieved in & similar task. The jury considered a case peculiar in some of its features and practically de- cided to indict J. Miflard for libel. The story is this: Police Judge C. A. Low isa candidate for re-election to the office which he now holds. Thursday last he was sud- denly apprised by one of the deputiesin the Bheriff’s office that there was a cam- paign wagon out on the street with a ban- ner bearing this alarming legena: C. F. LOW, POLICE JUDGE, FAVORS EMPLOYING CHINESE. SCRATCH HIM. Authorized by J. Millard. The candidate lost no time in finding that wagon. He read the name “C. F. Low,’* and while his own initials are “C. A.” he knew by the identification of Low as Police Judge that the device wasde- signed to turn votes against him in the precincts where the Chinese are despised. He ascertained at once from P. Gosson,who owns the wagon, that G. Gibb, a painter on Eighth street, near Market, lettered tbe banner. From Gibb he learned that J. Millard hired the lettering and also hired Gosson to exhibit the campaign de- vice. Judge Low was indignant, but he re- pressed his feelings and taking counsel of himself read the law of libel. He found that Police Courts haa no jurisdiction in libel cases and then he presented the mat- ter to Assistant District Attorney Black. The latter was persuaaed that the asser- tion that Judge Low favored the employ- ment of Chinese tended to expose the Judge to hatred and contempt and was therefore under the law libelous. The matter was accordinely brought to the attention of the brand new Grana Jury. Judge Low was the first witness. He exhibited the banner. Harry Dur- brow, secretary of the Grand Jury, marked it *exhibit A,” and J. Ross Jackson tacked it on the wall. G. Giob identified the banner as one that he painted for Gosson’s wagon by autbority of J. Millard. Mrs, Gibb, who was present when Millard ordered the lettering, also testified. Asa finishing touch, Millard himself testified that he composed the inscription, paid Gibb for painting it and Gosson for ex- hibiting it to the electors of San Francisco. Here was proof ample as to the facts. Then the question arose whether the state- ment that a man employed Chinese was a libel. Judge Low was sure that he coula prove it was a lie, and on that point the jury did not_hesitate, but in the law there is a vast difference between a lie aud a libel. The jury voted at last, and so next Friday theindictment of Miliard may be presented in Judge Slack’s court. The story goes that Millard, who isa Chinese interpreter, fancies that Hong- Dong is getting too much prominence in the Chinese quarter as an agent of the Police Court to investigate bonds. Mil- lard endeavored to get the Auditor to stop the Chinaman’s pay, and Mr. Broderick asked for light on the subject. Then the facts came out that Judge Low advised payment and cited authorities to justify the Auditor in approving the demands. It does not appear that Judge Low em- ployed Hong Dong, but nevertheless he has found the Chinaman useful in the work of detecting straw bonds. NEW TO-DAY. $2.50 $25.00 ELEGTRIC BELT BELTS!
