14 The Golden Gate Was Filled With Grain Ships Yesterday, All Eager to Get to Sea on Their Way to Europe. In Con ~ Engaged. Quite THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1896. a Number of Vessels Got In at the Same Time. sequence Nearly Every Tug in the Port Was R LN T0 CREATE THREE NEW JUDGES A Bill in Preparation to Increase the Judi- ciary. It Will Provide for Three Addi- tional Superior Courts Here. The Matter Will Be Press'd at the Next S ssion of the Legis- lature. A movement has been started in this City with the object of creating three new Superior Courts for the City and County of 8an Francisco. Already 1t has pro- gressed far enough to have assumed del- inite proportions, and many attorneys de- | clare that tremendous influence wiil be | brought into requisition to carry out the | plan successfully. Among tne lawyers | are several who favor the proposition on the ground that the calendar of the Supe- rior Courts has long been so overcrowded that the administration of justice is ob- structed. And all this delay is attributed not to any neglect on the part of the Judges, but to the inability of twelve departments to deal promptly with all the cases on the calendar. The method to be employed will bea petition to the State Legislature at its next session praying for relief to the ex- tent of three new Judges for San Fran- cisco. At the same time a bill will be introduced by a representative from this City providing for the erection of three | additional departments of the Superior Court and the appointment by Governor Budd of Judges to preside on these benches. While attorneys discuss the matter freely and say that they know that such a bill is to be introduced in the Legislature, the father of the proposed act is still keep- ing himself in the background. An atter- ney said yesterday- that he had begun to work on the bill, bat let it drop on receiv- ing information direct from a colleague that another bill was in preparation. Ed- ward T. Cole, whose officesare in the Mills building, has been gathering data concerng ing the present crowded condition of the Superior Court calendar, The result of these investigations will be presented asa powerful argument in favor of establishing the new Superior Courts without delay. It will show to the satisfaction of Assemb:ymen and Senators that the twelve present departments are wholly inadequate to mee. the constant and growing demands upon them from the people of San Francisco. In the argu- ment for the bill it will be shown that the volume of legal business has increased yearly with the growth of the City, and claimed that the Superior Courts, which were only able to handle the business of years ago, are far behind the times in their capacity. ut this will not be in the nature of a reflection upon the courts; it will be used to convince the Legislature that San Fran. NEW TO-DA If a_ flowering lant does not lossom, there’s little beauty in it. If it is sick and faded and with- ered and lifeless, Pnobody cares’ for it. It falls short of its object in being. It is in- complete—un. finished. Times without number women have beerr liken- ed to flowers — and rightly. But what of her whose physical condition corres- gcnds with the lossomless plant? What of the woman whom weakness has made not wholly and wholesomely a woman? Man! things lead to de- rangement of a ‘woman’s delicate organism. It may be due to carelessness. It may be due to ignorance fostered by mistaken parents on the plea of preserving modesty. - It may result from improper treatment of some minor trouble. Whatever sickness a ‘woman has, it seems always to affect the organs which make her a woman and these in turn work upon all the rest. There is much insanity among women. It is really surprising that there is not more. he troubles peculiar to their sex work strongly on the nerves. They drag upon the most delicate nerves in the body and the inflammation always present causes a debilitating drain that will enervate the most robust. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription has brought comfort and health to thousands of suffering women. For many Dr. Pierce has been Chief Consulting finyx:{cun at the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Insti- tute at Buffalo, N. Y. He has used the “‘Favorite Prescription all the time, with uniform success. With it, there is no need of the commonly insisted upon dis- tressing examinations and ‘‘local treat- ment.’” Ten cents sent to World’s Dispen- sary Medical Association, will bringa k ©of 168 pages, gealed in a plain envelope, i cisco has grown too large for 4 dozen su- perior tribnnals of justice. The matter has been discussed by the Judges themselves, and they look with favor upon it. One of .hem said that the Law Journal, which contains tne calen- dar, was the best evidence of the inability of the courts to dispose of business promptly. Attorney John T. Greany is onc of the many lawyers who know about the pro- posed bill. “I am interested in it to this extent,” he said yesterday, “‘that it wouid =ive us Judges enough to dispose of all the business that is now necessarily in ar- rears. That the bill will be presented to the Legislature I have not the slightest doubt, for it has been taken up seriously by some attorneys here, but who thev are Icannot state just now. There are d:ffer- | ent interests at work, and of course that is the main reason why the thing is kept uiet. ¥ ‘“You know if the bill should become a law the three Judges would be appointad by the Governor. “Their terms would run until the next general election, when their positions would have to be filled in the regular way by selection. Just now the question is, Whom would the Governor appoint? Would he take into consideration the vote of last elections when the 'Eeople expressed their choice for judges? Thatis, would he take up the fifth highest candidate on the tcket and the sixth and seventh? Of course no one can teil what might be done, but there is a strong impression among lawyers that his Excellency would large!y be influenced by the popular vote in his selection. In any event it would be safe to predict that Frank Murasky and Rhodes Borden would be two of the new Judges—at least, I should hope so. ““As for the necessity of increasing the judiciary, that needs no argument in view of the state of the Superior calendar. The Superior Judges are the hardest workers in the City Hall. Most of their time is spent in chambers siudying cases, hunt- ing up authorities submitted to them and arriving at decisions. It is positively throuch no fault of theirs that the calen- dar is crowded. There aye men in the County Jail who have been there over a year wailing trial on account of the de- mand upon the courts. All these facts will be brought to bear in effecting a pas- sage of the bill.” BANQUET TO REINSTEIN, The Faculty of the California Univer- sity Entertain Him Before Going Enst. An informal dinner was given Regent J. B. Reinstein of the State University last night at 615 Sacramento street by members of the faculty and alumpi. It was an extremely enjoyable affair. The dinner began at 7 and continued till about 10 o’clock. Mr. Reinstein is to leave on Tuesday for the East in connection with the obtaining of permanent building plans for the Cali- fornia University, of which be is a grad- uate. The dinner was in honor of the event and as a compliment to him for the ereat interest he 1s taking in the univer- sity. There were laudatory speeches of the great institution and something of an interchange of opinion regarding the plans. 1t was generally agreed that noth- ing should be left undone which would aid the university. Mr. Reinstein is to visit the great cities like St. Louis, Chicago, Philadelvhia, Boston ana New York, as well as the small towns which are the seats of great educational institutions. He will see the presidents of each institution and other officers and "get all the details he can of importance. The following were present at the dinner: J. B. Reinstein, Professors Henry Senger, Howison, Moses, Slate, Stringham, Ritter, Soule, Haskell, Jones, Cory, Armes, O'Neill, Magee, Messrs. Le Conte, Morrison, Davis, Sutton. e DEAN IS TIRED. Thinks His Bail Bond Is Entirely Too High. A. H. Dean, the Nevada Bank forger who is 1n jail in default of $50,000 bail, will make an application to Judge Wal- lace next Kriday for a reduction of his bond. He says that it is understood he is to be released as soon as the Supreme Court decides the cases against Becker and Creecan, and for that reason he thinks $50,000 bail is excessive. Dean was promised immunity for his share in the passing of a fraudulent $22,000 check on the Nevada Bank becaus- he “turned State’s evidence” and supplied facts sufficient to secure the conviction of his companions in crime, and he expectea to be released as soon as the trial was over. The volice authorities wanted to make a sure thing of the conviction of Becker and Creegan and asked that Dean be kept under lock and key until it is learned Wwhether a new trial is to be granted by the Supreme Court. 3 If another trial should be allowed it would be almost impo-sible to secure an- other conviction without Dean. He does not think the police are treating him right, and says tgn if his bail is reduced to a reasonable amount he will be"abie to get out and enjoy a mouthiul of fresh air, ———————— EXHAUSTED THE ESTATE. Mrs. Fowden Offers a Balance of 88 58} to Her Husband’s Relatives. Mageie Graham-Fowden, widow of the late Thomas W. G. Grabam and since married to Frank ¥owden of Berkeley, has filed her final account as administra- trix of her husband’s estate. The docu- ment shows that the property coming into her posession amounted to $5725 10 and that the total disbursements, inclading family allowance until her remarriage and commissions as administratrix, amounted to $5708 03,which exhausted the esiate to such an extent that only $17 17 remains. Haif of thi< sum she claims widow of the deceased and she asks Judge Coffey to set aday when she will bea- lowed to render her final account and turn over the $8 5814 due 10 the heirs in Scotland, of which there is a myriad.

The Cruiser Philadelphia Has Taken Aboard 1500 Tons of Coal and Is Ready for Sca. The biggest fleet of deep-water ships that Las left this port in many a day sailed for foreign parts yesterday. Every tugboat in the bay was busy and in conse- quence the water front was almost de- serted. Among the vessels that went out were the British ship Ross-shire for Lon- don, the Cromartyshire for Queenstown, the Rahaue for London, the Queen Mar- garet for Queenstown, the American ship Oriental for Nanaimo, B. C., and the American bark Prussia for Port Blakeley. All the vessels were in the Golden Gate at one time and the addition of a pilot-boat and some coasting schooners inward bound made up the liveliest scene that has occurred on the bay in many a day. Toe United States cruiser Philadelphia is coaling and every available 1nch of space is being crowded with fuel. She will prob- ably sail to-morrow for Callao and an at- | tempt will be made to break the record. The warship is just off the drydock and has received a thorough overhauling. i ‘What the reason for haste is cannot be ascertained, but one thing is certain the Philadelphia will make for Callao without a stop and at a high rate of speed. Over 1500 tons of coal have been put on the cruiser, and at the present time her decks do not present a very trim appear- ance. Everything will be shipshape be- the estate of Margaret d’Arcey, deceased. The entire estate of Mrs. Foley is bequeathed to her husband, Thomas Foley, unconditionally. No Tovision is made for the decedent’s son John or the reason that she wi-hed him to depend in the will of his father for his support. THAT LAST AGREEMENT, The Contract Between Mrs. Craven and the Fair Heirs Open to Delmas’ Inspection. Mrs. Nettie Craven has come out vice torious in the first legal bout in which she engaged with the heirs of the Fair estate, She lays claim to certain property which Wwas conveved to her by a deed signed by the Jate Senator James G. Fair, Yesterday D. M. Delmas appeared be- fore Judge Slack with an application to examine the much-talked-of agreement made by the heirs of the Fair estate to pay Mrs. Craven $500,000, alleging that it was ‘‘material to his client’s case,” etc., the same as Mr. Lioyd had done the day be- fore in the case of the deeds. The order was granted by Judge Slack, and the half-million-dollar contract will be subjected to the scrutiny of Mrs. Craven’s lawyers on Tuesday. As this was the object which Mrs. Craven has been attempting to atiain for some time she feels somewhat jubilant over her suc- cess. ———— ORAZY WITH DRINK. Buxeby Arrested for Assault to Commit Murder. L. J. Buxeby, a young man 21 years of age, was arrested yesterday morning by Policeman J. D. McLean, and booked at the City Prison on the charge of assault to commit murder. Buxeby was employed in Dixon's tub- works, in a lané off Eighth street, between Market and Mission. Yesterday morn- ing, while considerably under the influ- ence of liquor, he went'to the works and raised a distarbance, ending up with ulling a revolver out of his pocket and imng three shots at the legs of Kobbel Cane, one of the workmen. The bullets fortunately missed their mark. Policeman McLean heard the shots, and placed Buxeby under arrest. Cane was also taken to the prison and booked as complaining witness in the case. Cane said he did not want to prosecute Buxeby, as he was crazy from drink and did not know what he was doing. ————— ACENOWLEDGED superior. the Waltz safes, in all sizes. 109 and 111 Market st., §.

Chief W artinger Root and Assistant Chief Wharfinger Scott looked after the welfare of tie guests, so it 18 no wonder that everybody had a most enjoyable time of it, Those who attended the social were: Mr, and Mrs. G.

One of thn smartest pieces of work done on the water front in many a day was the unloading of 450,000 feet of lumber from the barkentine James A. Garfield in nine- teen hours. The work was done und r the supervision of C. L. Dennet and he is justly proud of the performance. The bandling of so much lumber in such a short space of time is remarkably quick work. Captain Thomas W. Hutchinson, marine surveyor for Gutte & Frank, died at his residence, 927 T'wentieth street, yesterday morning. He was at one time a bay pilot and was gnown to every shipping man in the City. He was well liked in all circles and tbe flags along the front were all at halfmast out of resnect to his memory. The schooner J. W. Weatherwax put in here last night leaking.. She was on her way from Grays Harbor to Levuka, Fiji, with a load of lumber, but sprang a leak during the recent heavy gale and had to put in for repairs. The schooner C. A. Merchant arrived last night flying her flag at.halfmast. She also was caught in the recent storm and one of the crew was washed overboard. The Merchant was a long time out, having taken sixteen days to get here from Ever- ett, Wash, The British ship California was sold last Tuesday for £17,500. She belonged to the White Star hine and was the last of its fleet of saiiing ships. . The British ship Duncan arrived off this port yesterday and, according- to instruc- tions, one of the 'pilots ordered her to Eroceed‘ to Port Townsend ‘to load for urope.
