14 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1896 GRAND JURORS FIND MARY BILLS Seven Indictments to Vin- dicate Judge Heb- bard. The People’s Bank Committee Must Answer for Its Late Circular, BANCROFT PLATES IN COURT. Arrest of the Teamster Who Helped Carry Away Valuable PrapertyA In the Night. Fourteen indictments were presented to Judge Slack by the Grand Jury yesterday morning and Clerk McElroy was ordered to place them on the secret file. Seven of the indictments were against persons who recently issued a circular de- nouncing Judge Hebbard for taking the management of the People’s Bank out of the hands of those who had control of it | when it collapsed. ! The persons indicted are T. H. Me-| Carthy, E. F. Kendall, Thomas S. Wil- | Jiams Jr., George B. Conant, Benjamin Lucy, A. L. Casaparo and T. H. Orral- man. The graveness of the offense charged against the depositors is that they libeled Judge Hebbard in their circular denounc- ing him as an “unfair and unfit” person | for Superior Judge. The circular narrates | the proceedings concerning the bank and avers that Judge Hebbard’s course caused | & loss to the depositors. | Jobn F. Smith and Paul A. Ayhens, who presented a Citizens’ party petition to the Registrar, were indicted for perjury and forgery, the claim being that they stuffed the list by forging a number of names and i swesring that they were genuine. ‘Another indictment was against Wil- liam Robles, charged with perjury, and | there were other minor indictments | against John Ellis, for stealing a watch, | and against one or two small offenders for | like crimes. John Jacob Hoff, a well-known team- | ster, was arrested late yesterday afternoon for grand larceny and burglary, on an in- dictment found by the present Grand Jury. The offense charged isthat “°fi'i in collusion with a well-known employe of the Bancroft Company, conspired to | steal and carry away a number of plates of books, the object of the burglary being to | sell the material at pound rates for metal. | Back of the indictment and arrest there | is a sensational story that implicates a | well-known citizen, and it is probable that | his arrest may yet follow, but his name is | at present a mystery. Seen at cell 7 at the County Jail last night Hoff said: “Another arrest is expected soon, but | until it is made I have nothing to say. As nearly as I can undersiand matters they chiefly desire to retain me asa wit- ness, and it is to me inconceivable that anything very serious is meant.” The men indicted for libeling Judge Hebbard called at the police station last night and surrendered themselves to De- tective Bainbridge. They were booked | whereupon they presented orders of re- | Jease signed by Judge Slack, in bonds of | $500 each. The indicted men, together with many | associates, will call a mass-meeting on | Thursday or Friday night for the purpose | of emphasizing their position. They say they did not act in collusion with any- body, #nd were in no manner conspirators, | but that they acted honestly, as they be- | lieved, without malice toward any one. E. F. Kendall of the committee sends the following to THE CArL: | Editor Call: Your issue of this date states that I testified before the Grand Jury yesterday | that Isigned the circular “under a misappre- hension of its contents.” I testified to noth- ing of the kind, Members of this committee are not controlled by any one. E. F. KENDALL. | San Francisco, Oct. 24, 1896. | it is the purpose of those indicted to rally the anti-bank sentiment in their | favor and make a hard fight to show that there was no libel in what they wrote and | that their conduct was without malice. ; BUILDERS’ BANQUET. They Enjoy Several Hours of Fe!tlvltyi in Their New Hall. | The Builders' Exchange Association | wined, dined and made merry in their‘ new building, on New Montgomery street, last evening. Those having charge of the ‘ banquet were: Oscar Lewis, president of the association; Thomas W. Bulcher, vice-president; James A. Wilson, secre- tary; M. C: Lynch, treasurer; James E. Britt, M.

ARTIST THE GUEST. Banquet in Honor of Ernest C. Peix- otto—A Tribute in Silver. - Ernest C. Peixotto, surrounded by fifty of his friends in the redroom of the Bohe- mian Club, last evening received a de- lightful 'send off. The young artist, whose work is attracting much f#vorable com- ment, has decided at the suggestion of the Scribners to establish his studio in New York. The banquet last evening was designed to expressin some degree the club’s ap- preciatfon of his merits as an artist and nis good qualities as a companion. Dr. George Chismore, president of the club, presided. Songs, speeches and wine made the hours glide. After the dinner in the redroom there was an_informal assembly in the green- room. Uncle George T. Bromley was com- missioned 1o perform the pleasant duty of presenting to Mr, Peixotto a silver chating dish of exquisite beauty. Fac-similes of many signatures of friends of the artist were engraved on the cover. Uncle George suggested that this chafing dish might be the only fireside the artist would ever bave while cookinge his own meals and painting for fame and postsrity,there- fore he was advised to cherish the precious gift. ———————— CHANGING THE BOOTHS. Interested Parties Are Causing Regis- trar Hinton Much Perturbation of Mind. Complaints of the action of interested parties in moving election booths con- tinue to come into the Registrar’s office and a force of men is kept constantly ta work carting booths back to their original stations and repawring the damage done by vandals. The most bold-faced effort to aefeat the object of locating election booths away from saloons occurred yesterday. The location of the booth in the Fifth Dolores and Doriand streets and it _w: supposed that it was erected there, Yes- terday it was discovered that it had been built at Eighteenth and “Sanchez streets and an investigation of the map in the Registrar’s office showed that the pin that represented tnue site of the booth was located there. The clerk’s book, however, called for a booth at Dolores and Dorland streets, and a close scrutiny deveioped tue fact that the pin had been taken from the place where it had originally been located and placed on the line of Sanchez street. As the booth was mysteriously carted to the same place, 1t is believed that the same person engineered both schemes. Notices have been received from the police that the booths at Valencia and Twenty-first sireets,Valencia and Twenty- second, Waller and Webster, Union and Stockton, Fourth and Brannan, Twelfth and Mission, Seventh and Bryant and Eleventh and Howard have been dam- aged, doors and windows having in many cases been broken or carried away. BUILDING BAY BOATS, An Important Line of Trade in San Fran- cisco. A Large Corporation That Has Started Here Under Most Auspicious Circumstances. The 8an Francisco Launch Company, a new and important enterprise, has just been inaugurated in the City at North Beach for the manufacture of boats and pleasure yachts on quite an exten- sive scale. The compuny has been estab- lished for many years at Seattle, Wash., where they have built many of the largest and finest gasoline launches and sail and While at Seattle this company built the celebrated launch Ludero for Millionaire Fair of this City. They also constructed the Ciaua Haw- thorn, one of the largest crafts of its kind afloat. Besides a number of launches for use on Puget Sound they built two addi- tions to the Alaskan fleet this year, an asmuch sas gasoline launches are begi ning to supersede sailboats for service aloug the indented Alaskan coast the San Francisco Launch Company expezts to build & number of such crafts for Alaska people next year. This important establishment surely opens up here under the most favorable auspices. : Their large building at North Beach coy- ersa full 50-vara lot and they already employ irom twenty to thirty men a day. The entire lower floor of the buildingis given up to the construction of canoes, shel's, yawls, ship boats, salmon and other hunting boatsand launches, Around the upper portion on the inside is an ex- tensive gallery, where samples of all the styles of their work may be seen on dis- Launch Satellite, Built by the San Francisco Launch Company.

After several hours of festivity the banguet was concluded py a song rendered by the Knickerbocker Maie Quartet. —————— Charter Mass-Meeting.

The celebration of the first electric-lignt illumination of Polk street last evening was a wide-open success. It itlustratedin a remarkable manner what united effort and intelligently directed enterprise may do. It demonstrated that while Market street may be the main artery of the City there are others—or at least there is an- other. From the hour the electric current was turned on until nearly midnight last night Polk street, within the limits named, throbbed with life and excitement. The red glare of Greek fire painted the outlines of buildings and lit the sky for the length of the thoroughfare, while music and fireworks ran riot up and down. The celebration marks the realization of adream of the Polk-street Improve- ment Ciub, organized less than iwo months ago., Arc lights have been swung, three in each block, for six blocks, from Sutter to Vallejo street. They put a new face on the street at night. % The members of the club, merchants and property-owners pay for the improve- ments by asses sment. ‘While the nurlyburly was going on out- side the club held a meeting at Loage Hall on Polk street, corner of Sacramento, addressed by Dr. Williams of the Board of Health, Benjamin Fehnemann, Nathan Bibb, President Kohn and F. W. Dohr- mann. The speeches were all congratu- latory and touched upon the general and great benefils to be accomplished by im- provement clubs. The political candidates did not lose the opportunity and were present at the meet- ing, while their bell-wagonsadded to the clamor in the street. The Letter-carriers’ band took a prominent part in the demon- stration, and everv shopkeeper felt it a duty to -burn more or less gunpowder. Colonel Will E. Fisher bought great strings of firecrackers, which he burned’ irom the top of the telegraph-pole at the corner of Sutter and Polk streets. He sent a_small boy to the.crossbars where the strings were fastened. The lower end being lighted, the ex- citement spread about the community un- til the street was blocked and traffic sus- pended. In the midst of it a policeman rushed in and demanded to know of Mr. Fisher who was responsible for the hub- bub. Mr. Fisher did not know. ‘‘Well, do you know if he got a permit to use the telelgnph pole in this way?'’ “Indeed 1do not,” said Mr. Fisher, dis- interestedly. *Then I'll have to stop this,” cried the policeman, with growing excitement. “Very well,” said Fisher, *“‘that’s the thing to do. Stop it."” The policeman looked up. By this time the crackers were snapping balf way up the pole toward the cross- bars, far out of reach. The policeman glanced upward and then made his way through the crowd, which was now laugh- ing at his discomfiture. he celebration was organized and thus successiully carried through by the sub- committee of the club on electric light— two men, Valentine Schmidt and John O. Quinn. They were, of course, cordially assisted by the officers and every member. The officers are: L. H. Kohp, president; Nathaniel -Bibo, first vice-president; John E.

The Architectural Irouworks Secures Its Creditors Against Possible Los: The Architectural Ironworks, of which 0’Connell & Lewis are the owners, has got into financiel difficulties. The firm executed and recorded yester- day a chattel mortgage on its belongings for $19,000, which was placed in the hands of W. R. Bissell, James V. Powers and E. N. Harmon, as trustees for the creditors. ‘While the affairs of the firm are not in good condition, it is supposed to be far from insolvent, and it is thought that a careful handling of the business will soon place them on a solid basis. James Madigan sued O’Connell & Lewis in the Justice Court yesterday for $34 for services rendered. —————————— LA LOIE COMING. ‘Will Probably Appear at the Audi- torium jn November. Friedlander, Gottlob & Co. announce that they have engaged the transforma- tion dancer, Loie Fuller, to appear at the Auditorium next month. The little American girl, who has set Paris agog over her wonderful aerial flights and rapid weather transformations, is no ordinary danseuse, who has been trained by a dancing-master to pirouette und point her toes. She made up her mind to do something startling and con- ceived the idea of imitating in her own motions the curlings of the ocean waves, of flames of fire nng wreaths of smoke. Technically speaking, La Loie Fuller does not dance. . She wields yards and yards of ilmy drapery, through which she is herself always plainly visible. She goes through every possible’ phase of weather. She is the noonday sun, the April snower, the sunset, the storm, the moonlight night and the rosy dawn. Loie Fuller, who came within appreci- 'nble distance of setting the Thames and the Seine on fire, did not succeed in put- ting even a match to any of the rivers in her own country during her recent tour. Her performance, however, is a very in- teresting one, and it 18 to be hoped that her engagement here is a settled fact. —_——————— Moles are expert swimmers, Their broad paws operate as paddles, HON. J. W, FOSTER 0N THE ELECTION He Says Mckinley'Will Undoubtedly Be the Next President. California Should Emphasize the Importance of Pro- tection, BRYAN A YOUNG ENTHUSIAST Never Had Any Law Practice to Speak Of and Made No Success as an Editor. The Hon. John W. Foster, who arrived here on Friday and will sail for Honolulu to-day, has decided opinions in regard to the present election. His State 1s Indiana, though he has been residing in Washington for some years while making a specialty of cases of international law. Speaking about Indi- ana and other States yesterday, he said: I spent about ten days in Indiana on the way out. We are having a fight there. We always have. But this year the Popu- lists and Democrats have combined. However, that won’t make any aifference. We will beat them anyway. By how much of a majority will we carry the elec- tion? That is hard to say. Idon’t pre- tend to know. Some say 25,000 or 30,000, But we are going to carry it. “‘And we are going to carry-the coun.ry for McKinley. My only anxiety now is to see what California is going to do. The Btate ought to be for McKinley by an over- whelming majority. “No other State needs protection so much as California. The varied products you have here attest this. California has many Republican friends in the East, who would be sorry to see the State go for the Democratic party. *“I was in Chicago on my way here. There thev were very confident and enthu- siastic. Chicago is going to give McKin- ley a greater majority than any other man ever received there. “Everything in. Jowa is favorable, too. I met a very intelligent gentleman on the train who was from Minnesota, and he told me there was no doubt about that State, that it would be for McKinley by a rousing majority. “I have not heard Mr. Bryan, but I understand he holds his audiences well. He is an eloquent talker, but that is all. He repeats himself over and over, and is in short’'a young and inexperienced en- thusiast. He has never made a success of anything, and what the Democratic party wanted to put him up for I cannotimagine. There are able men in the party, even among the silver men, but of course there are more among the gold Democrats, “Bryan never had any law practice to amount to anything, and didn’t make a success of it. Then he tried newspaper work, and from what I am 1informed didn’v make much of a success of that. He is simply a young enthusiast. “His judgment is not matured, and he is not the right kind of a man for the place to which he aspires.” Mr. Foster has bad a number of promi- nent callers since his arrival. He and Mrs. Foster will spend several weeks in Ha- waii, where Mr. Foster will ¢ombine business with pleasure. He will not ex- tend his journey to China and Japan. A WOMAN’S CLUB. Lady Writers Decide to Incorporate and Maintain a Home in the Business Center. Responsive to a call from the president for a special business meeting a large number of members of the Pacific Coast Women’s Press Association assembled at the home of Mrs. P. T. Dickinson, in Alameda, Thurrday. The executive board has been taking preliminary steps for the past three months toward proeuring per- manent headquarters for the association where the library and readizg-room shall be accessible to the members. It is the purpose of the board to estab- lish in San Francisco a woman’s club building in the business center, which shall be the headquarters of the Women’s Press Association and other clubs which may desire to unite withit. Official action was taken and a com- mittee, consisting of Mrs. P. '[. Dickinson (‘he president), Mrs. Marion B. Foster and Mrs. Laura T. Penney, was chosen. The committee was directed to proceed at once and take all required legal action toward incorporating the Women’s Club Building Company.
