The Successful Candidates for Municipal O fices Are Announcsd. ONE RECOUNT IS DEMANDED. It Is B:lieved That the Official Count Will Not Change the Results Materially. From an early hour yesterday morning until after midnight hundreds of anxious politicians crowded about the Registrar's office to learn the result of the semi-official count of municipal ballots. Greatinter- est was manifested in the fights that were close, but the accountants were keptso busy with their work that no information was given out until near midnight, at which time a tabulated statement was issued showing the election of Hebbard, Cook, Dunne and Hunt as Superior Judges. Judge Hebbard received 30,765 votes, be- ing in the lead of all others. Dunne's vote was 23,877 and Cook’s 23,801, while him with 16,065, It became apparentearly in the day that Broderick had won the fight for Auditor and Widber that for Treasurer. The clos- est fight was in the Twenty-third Senator- ial District, where Tyrrell came within 23 manded a recount. The following officers are seen to be elected by the semi-offictal returns, and while the offi cial count will change the figures some it will not affect the result: A. C. Widber is elected Treasurer; Cnarles S. Tilton, Burveyor; Harry T. Creswell, Oity and County Attorney; R. H. Webster, Supe rintendent of Schools; William F. Ambrose, Superintendent of Streets; J. A. Campbell, Charles T. Con- lan, H. L. Joachimsen and C. A. Low, Police Judges; G. C. Groezinger, J. Barry, Frank H. Kerrigan, G. W. F. Cook and J. A. Carroll, Justices of the Peace. Supervisors—First Ward, Lawrence De- vany; Second Ward, Thomas H. Has- kins; Third Ward, P. M. Delaney; Fourth ‘Ward, John HeSheehan; Fifth Ward, Dr. Washingion Dodge; Seventn Ward, Dr. Tullis A. Rottanzi; Eighth Ward, Thomas Morton; Ninth Ward, James E. Britt; Tenth W ard, Edward J. Smith; Eleventh Ward, Dr. C. A. Clinton; Twelfth Ward, Thomas W. Rivers. People complained of the slowness of tlhe nguring, tho ugh the clerks all worked as fast as possible. There were 250 long columns of figures to add and nearly 80,- 000 sheets of Egurea to handle. It is believed by the Registrar that the cost of this election will exceed 3200,000, though considerable money was saved in clerk hire and on bills for rubber stamps. The bill this year was $172 for stamps, against $800 for last election. There was much excitement about 1 o’clock when Deputy Registrar McGlade rushed into the police office and ordered warrants for all of the members of the election board from the Thirtcenth Pre- cinct of the Thirt{-lhird District. It was known that they left their headquarters at 9 o'clock, and when four Lours had passed there were prone suspicions of fraud and the Registrar had visions of foul play. Chief Crowley telephoned to Captain Spillane to put all members of the board under arrest, but before the captain could get started out the board appeared. The explanation of the delay was that an error had been committed the night beiore by placing some of the returns in the wrong envelopes. The board could not open them until all were present, and the time was patin hunting for the absent members. The totals on the semi-ofhcial municipal count were not finally tabuiated until after 2 o’clock this morning. The figures complete are as follows: MUNICIPAL TICKET.

Death of Captain Pearne, an O d-Time Master on the Occidental and Oriental Lina. There was considerable excitement on the steam whaler Narwhal yesterday morning when it was found she was afire. The vessel was lying at the Arctic Oil Miss King is the daughter of Captain King, late of the Hawaiian army. It was expected that the remuins of Miss Kate field would come up on the Australis, and an undertaker’s wagon was down to receive the coflin as soon as the vessel docked. Purser McComb, how- ever, knew nothing about the matter, and says there was no talk at all in Honolulu about shipping the body, and that he did not know what bost it would come up on. The British ship Gainsborou-h ] went on the reef near Diamond Head is now alongside the wharf at Honolulu. She is being patched up, and will then come to San Francisco for repairs. Nene of the plates were broken, but many of the rivets were started, and the vessel leaked comsiderably. It will cost many thousands of dollars to put her in any- thing like repair. Captain Jobn Worth, ‘who left the schooner Jane Gray at Unalaska and took command of an Indian sealer, re- Eor“ a splendid catch. During the time e was on the little boat they took 535 skins, and now the Indians want him to go out again. In a letter to a friend in this City he writes that all the sealers want to hunt on the coast, but that the British Columbia owners have decided to send all their vessels to Japan, Only one of the Seattle fleet will go to the Okhotsk Sea and the others will take Indians and hunt the Pacific Ocean. There 18 ade- mand for skilled hunters on the Sound, and Ross & Hewlett have received instruc- tions to engage at least half a dozen and send them north on the next steamer. According to Worth the Indians are growing rich in the sealing business. They own nearly a dozen boats and there is not one of them but has done well during the vast season. C. D. Ford, owner of the steamer Point Arena, has earned the gratitude of the dairymen and farmers of Mendocino A Small Fire Was Discovered in Works, and the inflammable nature of her cargo made a fire a serious question. An examination showed that the danger was underneath the engine-rcom, and the firemen were soon at work putting it out. There was cousiderable smoke and steam from the blaze, and the steamer’s keelson was considerably charred, but it did not take long to subdue the flames. Had the fire gained any headway there isno knowing what the loss would have peen. The Narwhal had a considerable quantity of oil in her hold, and there were many casks of the samp liguid on the oil company’s wharf.” In the warehouse is stored both bone and oil, so had the vessel once tegan to blaze tbere is no telling where the fire would have stopped. A cablegram to the Merchants' Ex- change announces the death of Captain William G. Pearne "of the steamer Gaelic of the Occidentsl and Oriental line. He was one of the best-known masters sailing in and out of Ban Francisco, having been in the employ of the companyTor over six- teen years. The Gaelic left San Francisco on July 2 last and went ashore on the coast of Japan. When near Nagasakion a dark night Captain Pearne found him- self in the middie of a fleet of sampans. He slowed down to avoid disaster, but ran into one of the small crait. The vessel was stopped and a boat lowered to search for the missing Japanese. While this was going on a strong current took charge of the ship, and before headway could be gained she went on a reef, It took considerable time and money to set her off, and when she was finally ocked at Yokohama Captain Pearne was a sick man. He took his ship to Hong- kong, however, and as soon as she was in the drydock he took to his bed. Later he was removed to the hospital, where, in spite of every attention, he died. ‘When the Southegn Pacific went into the Oriental trade it charterea three ves- sels from the White Star line. Captain Purcell brought out the Gaelic, Captain Metcalf (now Lioyd’s surveyor) the Oceanic and Captain Myers (now a pilot) the Belgic. After a few voyages Captain Purcell resigned and Captain Pearne was sent out to take his place. kver since he filled the onexouu'rosmon with great skill and judgment, and his death will be a distinct loss to the Occidental and Orien- tal Company. Captain Pearne was nearly 70 years old and leaves a widow and sev- eral grown children, who reside in East Oakland. The Oceanic Steamehip Company’s Aus- tralia got in from Honolulu yesterday with the following cabin passengers: Miss Austin, C. D. Chase, W. R. Eckart Jr., C. R. Eckart, Dr. and Mrs. French, Miss Fox, L. B. Fox, H. F. Jergens, Miss Lyman, Miss N. J. Malone, G. Piercy and wife, Mrs. O. C. Phillips, C. F. Preston, G. H. Robinson, E. H, Rose, H. 0. Statler, *1. R. H. Tomes and E. C. Winston. Dr.and Mrs. French are on their wed- ding tour. The former is from Boston, and while journeying through the south- ern seas he met Miss Pbenie King in Honolulu. It was a case of love at first sight, so when the doctor returned from Australia on the Monowai he stopped off at the Hawaiian group and was married. the Engine-Room of the Steam- Whaler Narwhal Yesterday Morning. It Was Put Out Without Much Damage Being Done. Had It Gained Headway the Ves- sel and the Arctic Oil Works Would Have Been a Total Loss. County and the produce and commission merchants of San Francisco. Owingto a heavy westerly swell the steamer could not enter Point Arens, but nevertheless Mr. Ford hed her stand on and off until she could get in and take the produce aboard. It meant a delay of twenty-four hours lor the steamer, but bad she gone on her way it would have meant the loss of a week to the Point Arena farmers. In censequence of the delay the men on the steamer will have to work donble watch in order to get away on schedule time to- mMOrrow. The Harbor Commissioners yesterday decided to put a fogbell on Lombard- street wharf. This will be a great help to the captains of the Tiburon and Sausalito ferry-boats during the winter months. Now that winter js here the Harbor Commissioners are discussing the ques- tion of changing the hours of the wharf- ingers and collectors and other employes. Hitherto a!l and sundry have reported for duty at 7 o’clock A. M., but now Commis- sioner Cole thinks a change should be made. Commissioner Chadbourne is with him, and the chances are that next ween a notice will be posted requiring the mek to report for duty at 8 A. . until further orders. The change will be welcomed gladly by the men, who for the last nine months have been getting up at 5:30 A. M. GUATEMALA’S BIG FAIR. The Commercial Bodies of This City Are Actively Interested. Secretary J. A. Filcher of the California State Board of Trade has been making at efforts to mi the California ex- ibit at Guatemala a success, and he will be ably helped by the Chamber of Com- merce and other bodies. The Merchants’ Association took up this matter yesterday and passed the following resolutions: Eesolved, That we give our heartiest support and encouragement to the proposed commer- cial representation of San Francisco atsaid Guatemala Exposition. Resolved, That the assistance and support of other organizations be requested in this matter. The secretary was instructed to ask the co-operation of other organizations of this City. The board of directors of the asso- ciation decided to encourage in every wa: the increased commercial intercourse wit the Central American States, asit is firmly of the opinion that this City should have a large share of that valuable trade. —————— Artificial ivory is made from condensed skim milk.

Stinging Comment Contained in a Supreme Court De- cision. LEVINSON CASE DECIDED. Action of the Lower Court Was Sustained and Long Litigation Came to an End. The Supreme Court yesterday decided the case of ira P. Rankin, administrator of the estale of John Levinson, deceased, against William J. Newman. The conrt denied the demand for an accounting and affirmed the judgment of Judge Wallace in the lower court. This is the case in which Attorney Eorace W. Phil- brook made the attack umpon Justicer Harrison of the Supreme Court, the attack which led to Mr. Philbrook’s disbar- ment. Justice Garoutte wrote the opinion of the court and Justices McFarland and Van Fleet concurred therein, A concur- ring opinion was also filed by Justices Beatty, Henshaw and Temple. Justice Harrison did_not sit in the case. The opinion by Justice Garoutte was com- paratively brief. The well-known history ofthesomewhat famous case was reviewed. Incidenull{l\be charge of fraud made by Attorney Philbrook was touched upon and Justice Garoutte found that ‘“:any gues- tion of fraud is out of the case.” Again he found that this transfer of the part- nership be set aside, as is hers sought by the appellant, and all parties be placed in statu quo, as of the day the transaction was had, no substantial results favorable to appeliants’ interests wouid ensue. It would be a valueless victory, for, as said by the trial judge, upon an accounting the sum realized by the legatees would iall far short of the amount actually paid by the surviving parties to them.” Justice Garoutte also expressed the opinion that the goodwill of the business passed to the surviving partners. In the concurring opinion considerable attention was devoted to Mr. Fhilbrook’s charges against Justice Harrison. The assumption that the Newmans were con- tracting with the expectation that they would be the survivors was not urged, it ‘was pointea, out,\ vefore the trial court. There was no‘re-)m to suppose when the contract was made that Levinson’s iilness was mortal. He lived more than one year thereafter, being a portion of that time unable to attend to business. Mr. Philbrock’s argument was aliuded to as vehement and intemperate. It was also found that during the time Harrison was acting as attorney for Executor Rayv- ely nev r was there the slightest hint or suggestion to the effect that the partner- e e et NEW TO-DAY—AMUSEMENTS.
