) THE. SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1896. = IR AND. AGHINST MNOTHER CHIRTER 'Many Leading Citizens Ad- " vocate Election of Freeholders. “Charter Could Yet Be Framed, * Adopted and Submitted to 4 the Legislature. ‘PROMPT ACTION SUGGESTED, <Mayor Sutro Is Opposed to the Plan. 4 -Joseph Britton, Other Election Commissioners Are in Doubt. Yesterday a number of active supporters ofanew charter exchanged viewsin the office of J. Richara Freud. As far as L J. Truman, Mayor- elect James D. Phelan and Mr. Dohrmann can ascertain there is a widespread senti- ment in favor of immediate action. Itis ‘believed that an election can be called, freekolders elected, the tharter advertisea nd rubmitted to the people at another election before the Legislature, which con- nes next January, adjourns. The members of the old Board of Free. holders and the representatives of the Charter Association and the Merchants’ Association comprehend that much de- vends on the attitude of the Board of Election Commissioners. The question of ‘money to defray the expenses of two elections may be regarded as the stumbling block, but the advocates of the enterprise, taking into consideration the amount which may ultimately pe saved by the adoption of a new charter, trust that the Commissioners will take the responsibility - of chlling the election. It may become necessary for the friends of the movement to securea large peti- tiorr asking the Commissioners to order the election. that the public mind is now interested in the problem of good municipal govern- ment. Should the subject be deferred for two - years some time would be required then to enlist the attention of the people in behalf of the proposed reform. Mr. Truman expressed the idea yester- day that the best provisions of the charter recently rejected could be embodied in the new instrument. It is p ble now to perceive the objectionable features and eliminate them from the charter to be proposed. A review of the subject published yester- day morning over the signature of Robert Y. ‘Hayne elicited some comment. The opinion generally expressed was that the adoption of a charter by the slow process of constitutional amendment was not at 21l necessary and that the amendments to s county government act and the con- struction of general laws by the Supreme Court did not dictate the proceedings sugs gested by Mr. Hayne. The plea- was ad- vanced that the Supreme Court, in view of the, magy complications atready sine ‘volved, would welcome a solution of the vexed question by affirming the constitu- tiunality of a cherter framed by free- holders, adopted by the electors of the City and ratified by the Legisiature. Lawyers. the equal in ability of Mr. | Hayne, reflect that the framers of the con- stitution designed to recognize the, right of local government in the broadest sense. In withholding from the Legislature the power to amend a charter submitted for ratification the principle of local govern- *. ment was broadiy accepted by the framers * must be considered, but of the constitution. Judge McFarland of the Supreme Court wasa member of the Constituticnal Convention and is, no doubt, familiar with the spiritas he cer- s with the language of the consti- is the judgment of Phelan that the fifth amendment recently adopted has cleared the way for the immediaie adoption of the charter. He recommends that the county committees | of*the various political parties should con- fer and nominate the fifteen freeholders. There should be one ticket in the field, but the ticket should be representative of the | industnal, professional and business inter- ests of the City. Mr. Phelan believes that the expense oi the two elections could be met without detriment to the funds of any department. Ciement hoids to the opinion that right now is the time for action on the charter. The taxpayers, and in fact all classes of citizens, now comprehend the necessity for a simple and plain instru- ment to take the place of the cumbersome and contradictory consolidation act and the conflicting ceneral laws. He main- tains that the Election Commissioners in calling an elestion for fifteen freeholders would carry out the will of the people. It may become necessary for the people by petition to express the desire for the eiec- tion. The item of expense, of course, r. Clement con- tends that money would be saved by call- ing the election at once. Waiting two .yvears would increase rather than dimin- ish the cost. . Some rough estimates of the probable cost were made yesterday by Messrs. Tro- man, Freud and Britton. The expense at the utmost for the two elections should not exceed $50,000. One suggestion met with favor, and that was to the effect that the leading commercial and labor organi- zations should be asked to attend a gen- eral meeting to discuss the question of the charter. It was readily admitted that the provisions which were found to be un- popular in the charter recently submitted should be modified or eliminated alto- gether from :he forthcoming charter. It is figured that the freeholders would be able to revise and edit the chartér within ~ six ‘day$ after organization. Shounld the Commissioners. call the elec- tion within the next week the instfument could be framed and submitted to the people in ample time for its submission to the Legislature. 5 gency the session at Sacramento might be prolonged for a few days beyond the usunal * time of adjovrnment. Many citizens who discussed’ the topic yesterday acknowledged that a new char- ter was needed. Hints were thrown out that the Election Commissioners, who ‘were recently re-elected to office for two vears, would Lesitate to take steps whicn mght result in shortening their ferms of office. On the other band a sentiment was_expressed that the Commissioners would respond readily if it should.be demonstrated that a lsrge number of citizens were anxious for an immediate election. Mayor Sutro was interviewed last night. He said distinctly that he would not as an Election Commissioner yote at this time to call an election for freeho!ders to frame a charter. He insists that a charter should not be hastily framed. It is a fundamental prineipie with him that nothing should be done in haste. Above 2[l things in municipal affairs a charter hould be the product of deliberate study, A vast deal of thought and patient inves- tigation should be apgliad to the work. He says, further, that the Board of Free- holders should employ at the expense of the City an auxiliary committee consist- ing of twelve of the ablest lawyers in town and that these lawyers should carefully | It is suggested that now is | the time for action, in view of the fact In the event of emer- | examine every provision of the charter and pass upon irs constitutionality. “What do shoemakers and merchants know about constitutional law?” said the Mayor, *“I do not mean,” said he, “to speak in a derogatory way of any class of citizens, but I do say that every clause of the charter should be examined by a committee of capable lawyers—not cheap, volunteer attorneys, but paid lawyers of high standing in the profes- sion. It is perfectly absurd to think of rushing a new charter through without thought or deliberation. It is better to Wait two years and frame a charter to last for a century. In doing anything it is my plan to do it well.. We can get along for two years more under existing con- ditions. The City is not in debt. In this respect San Francisco is an exception, and we are better off than other great cities.” £ City and County Attorney Creswell said at his home last evening that he favored the holding of a special eiection of Free- holders. n response to the question whether he as a member of the Board of Election Commissioners would vote to call such special election at once Mr. Cres- well had no positive answer to- give. He said that the case of Miller against Curry and Kahn against Sutro mast be studied thoroughly by him in connection with the last amendment to the constitution before he wou!d be willing to expressan opinion on this point or would consider himself qualified so to do. The Supreme Court decision in the case of Kahn against Sutro made some officers county officers and others municipal officers. The ques- tions involved in existing conditions made Mr. Creswell think that a thorough and careful iuvestigation would be necessary |. before he would reach any conclusion. Auditor Broderick was also at his home in the Mission, having been confined to his house by sickness for several days. He said that he had not come in contact with people, and had no ‘way to reach a conclusion as to what the public desired. “Idonot think,” said Mr. Broderick, “that I ought to have any feeling in this matter. I think that we need a new charter, and I am in favor of having a new one, for now the condition of affairs is chaotic. I want to act in accordance with the wish of the majority of the people. Ifthey want to have an extra levy to pay the expenses of the special election, they ought to have it. I think that, as the head of the financial depart- ment of the City government, I could help to raise the money necessary. to pay { for a special election. But the ;oinc is whetber the people want it. Perhaps HOLIDAY BAZMR N GRACE CHURCH The Mission Ladies Enter- tain Their Numerous Friends.

LOTTERY-DEALERS CAUGHT Successful Raid on an Agency on Sutter | Street. g Success at last crowned the efforts of Sergeant Anderson and his police posse of Chinese gambler raiders. For a long time he knew tbat Chinese lottery tickets were being sold in a laundry in the basement of 244 Sutter sireet, but the Asiatics were -s0 olever in hiding the evidence oi their illegal trafiic that the police were unable to catch them. Yesterday Sergeant Ander- son and his men made a rushon tne place and caught the lottéry agency in full operation. 8ix Chinese laundrymen were arrested for aiding and abetting a lottery. Nathan Kiink, Joseph Bundy and Joseph Marino were also in the place purchasing tickets. They were arrested on the same charge. After considerable search a large lot of lottery tickets were found in a sheet that was hung upon a clothes-iine with other laundried clothes. Stabbed With a Knife. F. Perfetto of 1326 Dupont street swore to a complaint in Judge Joachimsen’s court yester- day charging Joseph Marino with assault with adeadly. '"Eon' Perietto said he was play- ing billlards Sunday night in the Musicians’ Exchange saloon, on Montgomery avenue, when Marino entered and began to annoy him. Perfetto remonstrated with him and Marino drew a knife and stabbed nim.

Dey Will Probably Have to | Produc: That Compromise Contract. By consent of all the attorneys engaged, the trial of the Fair will contest,“which | was fixed on the calendar for yesterday | morning before Judge Slack, went over | until next Monday morning. i The statement was made by George A. | Knight, when the case was called, that the | attorneys had agreed to the continuance i | if it pleased the court to let it go over. | It really did not please the court, for Judge Slack looked very much disgdsted {and stated that it was very disappointing to nim that the request should be made. | He Itnougbz the case would be ready for trial. Mr. Knight explained that several of | the attorneys were engaged in tne trial of | causes in and out of the City. | *“Were these triais begun since this case was set?” inquired Judye Slack. *'No, sir,”” said Knight; ‘“‘before.” Mr. Delmas explained that the Parker { will case, in which he was engaged, had | been on trial for eleven weeks. It wason | argument now, and his adversary, Judge | Paterson, would present his (Paterson’s) | case to-morrow (to-day). He, Delmas, would not plead this &s a reason for post- ponementon his part, be said, as, although very inconvenient, he would proceed with this case if the court ordered. He had, however, agreed to: the postponement, as he did not wish to inconvenience others. ““Chere are thirty jurors here, summoned for this trial,”’ said- Judge Slack. “They must be paid.” “I will pay the jurors,” said Knight, and immediateiy began to look over his resources. Previous to this Judge Slack an- | nounced, with regard to the application of Delmas & Shortridge for an order of the court directing Richard V. Dey to produce that $500,000 contract by which | 1t was proposed to compromise the claims of Mrs. Craven, that it did not appear to be material to the question at issue. | Mr. Delmas called his Honor's attention | to certain statements in Mr. Dey’s deposi- tion that had escaped the attention of the icourt, and Judge Slack-stated that the denial should not be recorded as final, but if at any future time it might be {shown that the instrument was indeed material 1o the jsue then the order for | its production would be made. All the attorneys agreed that no further | postponement would be asked. —————— WIDOW MARTIN. The Woman Who Killed Her Husband on Trial for surder, Mre, Susie B.

Wales Was Arrested for Being Drunk and Dec'ares H: Was Drugged and Robbed. James. Wales, a salesman, 27 years of age, was arrested about 4 o'clock Sunday | morning on Eddy street by Policemen | Snowball and Wilsou ana sent to the City Prison in the patrol-wagon on the charge of drunkenness. When searched the only | thing they feund in his pockets wasa knife. Wales was released yesterday morning, and on ascertaining that the only thing belonging to him wasa knife he declared he had been drugged and 1obbed, and said, he would find the people who did it. Little attention was paid to his state- ment, 8s it is quite a usual thing for men arrested for drunkenness to declare when sober that they had been robbed. Last night Wales’ wife called at the City Prizon in a great state of excitement. She asked what property her husband had on him when arrested, and when told she said: “My husband has been drugged and i robbed. On Saturday morning he went | to Tom Sharkey's training quarters and Sharkey, who is'a friend of .his. presented him with a diamond stud valued at §200, ‘‘He showed me the stud and took it away with him, He had also some money with him. 1am surehe has been drugged and robbed, as he is not a drinking man.” - Mrs. Wales was advised 10 go to police headquarters and report the case there. This was done, and as soon as hLer hns- MORE SPACE IS NEEDED California Proposes to Make an Exceptionally Great Exhibit in Guatema'a. Merchants Wil! 'Not Display Their Goods, However, if They Are Not Given Adrquate Facilities. Chairman Bundschu of the Guatemalan Exposition committee of the Chamber of Commerce presided yesterday at the executive session of that committee. Carl H. Clark was selected temporary secretary and given the task of inter- viewing personally the twenty-six firms that have signified willingness to exhibit in March next at Guatemala. These firms will have to promise to pay $50 toward the general expense fund and $2 per square foot of space occupied. If this amount exceeds necessary expenses the surplus will be distributed among ex- hibitors pro rata. Should the amount fa!ll short, however, the different firms must agree to make up the deficit pro rata. Among those present at the meeling were N. W. Spaulding, Percy Morgan, P. Lilienthal, J. P. Currier, M. . Hirsch, J. Filcher and Nathan Dohrmann. Chairman Bundschu =tated that in view of the fact that only 2500 square feet had been allowed to exhibitors from California and that the space was entirely inadequate to the requirements he believed a further demand should be made. It was resolved that a cablegram shoula :n sent immediately asking for 6000 square eet. - 1n answer to the question of Percy Mor- gan, representing the California wine in- terests, as to what action should be taken if Guatemala refuses additional space, the reply was blunt and to the point: “We will not exhibit there.” ————————— GAME OUT OF SEASON. Restaurant-Owners Object Strongly to n ' TLaw That Is Mot Enforced. Owing to the few arrests that have been made by the officers of the Fish and Game Commission, afd also the Game Warden, of men who are openly selling game out of scason, the proprietors of restaurants and eating-houses have taken advantage of dereliction of the cfficers and are now selling both quail and wild duck to cus- tomers. August E. Drucker of the Wilson Res- taurant said last evening that he did not propose to transgress the law, but he thought that the Commissioners and the Game Warden should either enforce the law or openly state that arrests would not be made of those naving game in their possession. ~With few exceptions the commission-houses are all selling’ game now, which fact is known to the Game Warden. ————— A Reception to Missionaries. The Rev. W. A. Spencer, D.D., secretary of the General Church Extension Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, is in this City, and he, together with a number of outgoing missionairies, one of whom is Dr. Spencer's dnughnr. will be given a reception by th Methodist people of. tne City at Californi: street Chureh, corner of Broderick, this even- ing.

Children Cry for Pitcher's Castoria. HAS NO FURTHER DESIRE TO FIGHT ‘Authority of the Railroad Co‘mmission Is Again Acknowledged. The Southern Pacific Averse to Additional Legal En-« tanglements. NEW RATE SCHEDULES FILED Victory for ths State Secured Only on the Threat of Court Pro- ceedings. All disposition on the part of the Sounth- ern Pacific Company to again lock horns with the Railroad Commission in the courts has evidently disappeared, at least pending the long-delayed decision in the case of the railroad corporation against the Railroad Commission to restrain the latter from reauciug rates. From the day that this suit was insti- tuted, more than a year ago, the officials of the railroad company, acting uudoubt- edly under. orders, have failed to file with the commission any of the new rate sched- ules, and even refused to file its annual repdrt; until threatened with legal pro- ceedings. In fact the commission’s exist- ence was deliberately ignored by the cor- poration. This action, according to the views of the majority of the commission, was taken in order to maintain the position the Southern Pacitic took in the pending suit— that the existence and organization of the commission was unconstitutionai. Nospecial attention was paid to the sulk- iness of the railroad so long as its defiant attitude did not interfere with the busi- ness of the commission. Rates could not be changed by the commission, in any eveLt, until Judge McKenna rendered his decision. But when the time came to send the copy for the Commissioners’ annual re- port to the State Printer it was found that the annual report of the Southern Pacific Company was missing. A polite request for it was penned-and forwarded, but not even an answer was vouchsafed. Then came a more formal demand. This was met by evasion. At last resort was had to the counsel of Attorney-General Fitzger- ald, and only when threatened with legal proceedings did the officials ind it advisa- ble to file their report. This victory of the commission was achieved only a few weeks ago. Notices of rate changes were, however, still withheld from the commission. Hay- ing enforced their authority in the matter of the annual report, the Commissioner: just to keep tueir hand in, invited the rail: road to again play in their yard to the ex- tent of fili their new rate sheet. But the same plan of dunning had to be pur- sued, and it was only when the alterna- tive was laid before them of being com- pelied to answer to a summons or file such schedules that the iatter were forth- coming. The result of the commission’s victory in'this case was the recent procuration of a stack of revised rate sheets several inches high. These include ail the new rates issued from as far back as August, 1895, to the present day. Most important of these are the greatly reduced grain and general merchandise rates forced upon the Southern Pacific by the competition of the Valley road. Occult Curative Forces Invoked. Articles of Incorporation of the California State Therapeutic College were filed in the office of the County Clerk yesterday. The ob- jects of the incorporators, as set forth by their deoiarations, are to encourage, reform, educate and qualify in therapeutics, arts, philosophy and science and giving the right as physicians to prescribe in the brancnes of efectricity, hemospasia, hypnotism, magnetism, psychic and mental heaiing, materia medica, astrol- ogy, occult forces and science in the treatment of diseases, thus guarding against the indis- criminate use of forces.
