12 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1896. WORKING FOR NEW SUPERIOR COURTS E P. Cole Will Present a Bill to the Next Legislature. He Asserts That Attorneys and Judges Favor an Increased Judiciary. Data to Be Submitted Showing the Congesteé Condition of the Court Cilendars. The most absorbing topicof conversa- tion amoug politicians and attorneys yes- terday was the movement started some days ago, as exclusively announced in THE CaLL, for an increase of the judiciary in San Franeisco. Many politicians were surprised when they learned that a fight would be made at the next Legislature for at least three new Superior Judges for this City and County. They discussed the probabilities, pro and con, from their own points of view, but were completely at sea as to the significance of the matter, not knowing that the whole thing was in the hands of severa! attorneys, whose only in- terest was to so increase the judiciary as to guarantee prompt disposition of law cases that now frequently run along for months. The Superior Judges themselves are fa- vorably disposed toward the proposed bill, as they are overworked and protest they cannot reach all the work before them. Among the most ardent supporters of the pi1t 1s Judge J. C. Hebbard, who has mentioned the matter in court. Mr. Heg-| gertv of Knight & Heggerty, Garber, | Boalt & Bishop, &. P. Cole, B. Healy and | other prominent lawyers are among those who decliare that a bill providing for three 10 six new Superior Judges in this City should be passed by the next Legislature. Itis no uncommon thing to hear their protests azainst delav in the Superior | courts, which effectually bars the business | of their respective offices. The bill will be introduced by E. P. Cole, who has taken up the quest on with aconviction that immediate relief in the way of expediting court procedure 1s de- manded by local attorneys as an absolute necessity. “The calendars of the Superior courts are so congested,” said he, ““that an attor- ney cannot get a case on trial for months and months after it is atissune. In fact I have had cases at issue since last April, and cannot yet get a hearing. “T have gone into this thing and shall carry it to the Legislature. The County Clerk’s oflice has promisea to give me the number of cases at issue, but which have not yet been calied for trial. One-half the cases at issue are not published on the calendar of the Law Journal. And yet the Superior Judges work very hard and have done mqre work than any other Judges in the Sta te. “The delay on account of the congested condition of the calender 1s very injurious to litigants and of course very d-iriviental to the business of attorneys. You go out to court time and again and cannotget a bearing—other cases are on trial, or there is something else in the way. “I will presenta bil! to the Legislature providing for an increase from twelve to fifteen or eighteen Superior Judges. As the conditions are three Judges wouid give additional relief, but I think that six new Judges would be necessary to keep the calendar open.” “How did the movement for an increase of Judges originate?”” he was asked. “I have thought of it for some time past and told many lawyers of my opinions. I find it meets the approval cf a great many lawyers, though a few are opposed to it. It is an injustice to the people to compel them to wait so long be- jore they get a determination of their cases. Necessity originated the move for an increase of the judiciary.” hl;ih' any other lawyer working on the e I don’t know what others are doing. My opinion is that there is a general sen- timent in favor of the measure. I am doing it for an increase of t e judiciary, and for that only, acting disinterestedly, without having in view auy one to ele- vate. I cannot see how we can get along without more Superior Judges. Los An- geles has six, Sacramento three, Oakiand four. There has been an increase gener- ally all through the State. **San Francisco, which, I presume, has half the litigation of Caiifornia, never had an increase since the constitution of 1879 went into effecy, yet San Francisco is the home of nearly all the big corporations of California, and there has been a great in- crease in the population and business eince 1879. The meusure is one for the public benefit. Some of the civil depart- ments had receny to assist the criminal Judges on account of the excess of busi- ness. The Judges cannot do any more than they are doing. I've talked with a good many lawyers, and they have fa- vored it. *‘The bill will have plenty of backing, for there will be any number of lawyers in Sacramento to fight for 1t. Its details, I presume, will be arranged by the Judici- ary Committee if it is passed at all. Talk- ing about expense, the cost of three or six extra Superior Jud.-es to the people is nothing when compared with the exnense now imposed on people w o are trying to get their cases tried in the courts, and suf- ller fl'nnncimly through unreasonable de- ays. —_— —_— In Norway.

JMNY CARROLL BADLY IRJUAED McAuliffe’s Left Elbow Has Paralyzed His Right Arm. His Hands Broken and He Is Severely Bruised About the Body. Every Indication That the Ex-Light. Weights Fought the Best They Knew How. Jimmy Carroll is sick at heart and phy- sically sore. These are facts not generally under- stood, because the belief has gone abroad that Jimmy Carroll and Jack McAuliffe gulled the public iast Friday night with a “fake fight.” Carroll is suffering morally under that implication, which even his long career as a *‘square’’ pugilist has not been able to ward off. The different newspapers, in their ac- counts of the unsatisfactory ten-round go, gave a pen portrayal of two erstwhile good men who had degererated into over-fleshy bag-pushers, and who varied their weak p ysical efforts by holding a conversation in the ring, the main topic being: “Is it better for you, Jack, or is it bet- ter for me to vo out? And in what round shall we do it?” Carroll feels terribly over this state of affairs, and he consented yesterday to give an explanation, as well as an illustra. tion, to a CALL representative, showing how. after the third round of his fight, ke was in no condition to continue the battle upon regularly accepted lines. He was at the St. George’s Club, sur- rounded by a dozen or more friends and his trainer, to whom he was retelling the details of the battie. “‘>ee this left leg,” Carroll said, after doffine his shoe and stocking. “Do you see that swelling and discoloration ?”’ The query was unnecessary to any man not blind. The leg looked as if it had been hit with a baseball bat. It was lumpy and blue. 5 ’ “Before I went into the rine I strained or parted a cord in there,” he said, “and it was simply excruciating pain to stand. Ididn’t say anything about that, how- ever, and went right ahead with the fight.” Then Carroll began undressing to the extreme degree that his friends might witness ‘or themselves the full extent of the injuries with which he had met. “Do you see those two knuckles here? Do you see those two knuckles there?”” he asked, first pointing to his left and then to his right hand. The knuckles were out of sight. In- stead of being in their regular place they were somewhere down the hand near the wrist. “I knocked those hands out of shape in the third round against McAuliffe’s head, and I kn w I was inforit. I couldn’t punch any more, and I knew 1 must hope to win with a swinging blow, using my forearm instead of my fist. I did this with some success until the worst punish- ment I got in the.whole fight befell me. Imade a powerful swing with’ my right, getting in close’ enough to land with my wrist. McAuliffe closed . in, too, and with his elbow parried the blow. The point of his leit elbow caug 't me on the inside of the right bicep and virtually paralyzed toe whole arm. See the mark it left?” Carroll showed an upper. urm flear the armpit that was swollen and frightfully discolored over an area of twenty square inches. He could not moye the arm with- out terrific pain. “That is the blow that did me up. My right arm was of absolutely no use to me aiter that. It was just as if it was broken,” be said. “I decided then that I must force McAuliffe into doing the work and let bim wh.p bimself. I conla do no punching, and I hoped to get him worked out sufficiently 10 win with a left swing. Thoss people who think that I did not fight to win should look at me now.’” As Carroll turned around he presented the appearance of something of a cross between a blue-spotted leopard and a black-striped zebra. There is little doubt toat beisa very badly punished fighter, who will not be able to get around much for many deys. COLLAPSED WITH A ORASH John Hili’s Barn Minus Its Brick Front Wall, A portion of the front wall of John T. Hill’s burn, on Broadway, between Stock- ton and Powell streets, collapsed with a crash yesterday forenoon. Several horses in the stable stampeded,and many per- sons narrowly escaped serious injury. The building is an old structure. Satur- day evenin:’s rain washed away ihe earth supporting the foundation and the wall began to sag. Persons passing the build- ing noticed the danger and took the mid- dle of the street. It was fortunate that they did, as a large part of t::e wall finally came down, Truock Company 2 was noti- fied and razed the remaining portion of the wall. The wooden skeleton still stands and affords a semi-sheliter for the live stock. DEATH OF A PIONEER. Captain J. M. Vincent Expires in the Mining District of Sinaloa, Mexico. The news reached this City yesterday of the aeath of Captain J. M. Vincent in the mining district of Sinaloa, Mexico. He leaves a widow, four sons and a daughter, all residents of this City. He was reared and educated by Captain Bartlett of New Bedford, Mass., and when | 19 years of age was placed in command of a whaler. After making several profitable voyages he came to this City from Houo- {lulu in 1850 and took anm expedition of 100 miners up the coast in search of the Triniaad River. He was successful, and on bis return bought the ship Judson, which he sailed between this portand Valparaiso, Chile. Finding the passenger tratfic profitable he purchased the Claren- | don and did a large business. | During his last trip information was given by his rivals to the French officers under Maximilian that the Clarendon had on board munitions of war and provisions for the Mexican iorces, and when the ves- sel arrived at San Blas she was seized and her cargo confiscated. Returning to this City Captain Vincent retained an attorney to filea claim acainst the Mexican Government, but as years passed and nothing was done he guve up the case as hopeless. For a few years rast ana up to the time of his death he had been engaged in min- ing in the State of Sinaloa, Mexico, where be discovered two rich gold mines—the Soledad and S n:a Apolonia—besides locating seven others with good prospects. About six months ago a company was be- ing organized in this City with the object of developing these mines, when ex-Gov- ernor Johnson, who was at its head, died and the scheme fell through. SANDBAGGED AND ROBBED. Rough Experience of John Hogan, a Boatswain, at the Hands of Two Boiler-Mukers. Ignatius Hurley and Patrick Sullivan were booked at the City Prison yesterday morning on the charge of robbery. Hur- ley is 17 years of age and Sullivan 21. Both gave their occupation as a boiler- maker. Friday night John Hogan, a boatswain on the ship Glenericht, had been drink- ing heavily. He left a saloon on Folsom street about 11 o’clock and was makine his way to Curtin’s boarding-house on Main street, when Hurley and Sullivan met him. They struck him on the neck with a sandbag, knocking him unconscious, and robbed him of his gold watch and chain. The robbery was reported to the potice and Hurley and Bullivan were arrested Saturdey ni ht, one on Fremont street and the other on Folsom street, by Police- men Roche, Murphy and Bean. Hogan was found yesterduy morning by Police- man T. P. Eulis and taken to the City Prison. Hurley and Sullivan were brought before him along with six other prison- ers and he at once picked them out. Hogan is disinclined to prosecute them. He says efter he recovered irom the biow with the sandbag Hurley and Sullivan took bim into.a saloon aud promised to give him back his watch in a faw days if he wotild say nothing ubout ir. The police think that friends of the prisoners have been talking to Hogan and threatening bim. He will be kept in prison on a charge of drunkenness, so that he will bave a chance of swearing to a complaint against his assailants this morning. —————— BURGLARY IN A DRUGSTORE.. The Premises of Wililam T. Kibbler, Turk and Larkin Streets, Entered. The drugstore of William 'I. Kibbler was entered bv burglars eariy yesterday morning and $1090 and'a pair of opera glasses were stolen. The burglars climbed over a ience in the rear on' Turk street, made a hole in the back door, by which they were able to unbolt it. Another door barred their way, but they did the same thing with it. Ti.e money and opera giasses were in a desk ana the burglars forced it open. Nothing else was taken. The police were notifiea” of the burglary, but no arrests have been made. ————— Scenes in the Holy Land.

A “Love Feast” Where Eyes Filled With Tears for Love of God. Venerable Members of Central Methc- dist Church Ccmmune in Happiness. An assemblage where lips trembled and gray-haired men and women sat, their eyes brimming with tears that were caused neither by sorrow nor pain, but by the very pathos of their religious joy. Such was the scene yesterday morning in the assembly-room of the Central Meth- odist Church. It was a gathering of all ~the old folk in the congregation, the patriarchs and the aged matrons of the church, Three score of them were there and mess: ges were read from many of the more feeble who were deterred by illness and the inclement weather. The ceremony began with what in the Methodist church is known as a love feast. Bits of bread and sips of water were par- taken of by all those present in token of a feast in which they participated as spirits inspired by acommon love and reverence. One little woman, ner giasses blurred with joyous tears, spoke of ‘‘these old sol- diers of the cross” and then added in tremulous voice, *“I have not attended a Methodist love feast since I was a girl in | dear old England, but I feel that I am nearer to God to-day than ever before. “Idon’t cry for sorrow” said a vener- able man, “but I can’t help it when my heart is full of joy,” and every othereyein the room glistened with sympathetic tears | as the old man_sobbed forth his thankful- ness and devotion. An older and feebler patriarch with fal- tering step and unsteady voice r se, and, beginning in a low tone and rising to a clear, strong avowal of his faith, declared that *‘jor eighty-five years I never was a Christian; fnever attended any church; I jollowed no religion until a few weeks ago, when I joined the church and turned to God.” Among the older persons present were Mrs. Hersey, aged 87; Mrs. Isaac Bilborn, aged 86; Jonp KEagles, aged 85; Uriah Griffiths, aged 85, and Mrs. Patenghi, agea 70. 5 The meeting was nresided over by R. T. Marrick, and H. 8 Jackson acted as chorister. Rev. Dr. Dille and Rolla V. ‘Watt were present and delivered messages from absent oues. After the love jeast the old persons ad- journed to the auditorium of the church to listen to a sermon bearin: in part upon the 1aithfulness of the veteran Christian. The belconies, the choir rails and the altar were decorated with large fan-palm- leaves, pepper branches and ivy, while the altar itself represented a bountiful harvest of moving green corn with russet tassels, large pumpkins, bright, red chili peppers, squashes, sheaves of grain, pineapples and other fruits.

GEORGE CHESHIRE 5 “ILL RGHT" That's What Mesmerist Kennedy Says About His Patient. After Seven Days’ Sleep, the Fellow Left His Casket and Danced. Whether Legerdemain or a Bona Fide Affair, the Case Is Puzzling the Physicians. “You're all right !” This must be given out with an intona- tion equal to the pop of a cork’ from an overheated champagne bottle, and it will awaken the soundest kind of a sleeper bet- ter than a seven-day alarm clock. Professor Kennedy proved that last night at the Bush-street Theater. One we k ago the mesmerist fondly caressed George Cheshire with his right hand vefore an audience of several hun- dred people in the theater. He rubbed bis eves gently and tola him he must be a good little man and go to sleep for a week, just like mammas speak to their babies, Cneshire immediately collapsed and was put away in a glass casket, where he re- mained until his week was up. During all that time he has been ‘in sight of the curiously inclined, who were given access to the theater at all hours to observe the changes in the man’s condition. There were unxind people who would jab pins in tne sleeping man without get- ting a squirm in return, and but for the fact that Cheshire has lost a few pounds and has gained some beard during his ante-mortem burial, he was the same George Cheshire last night when awak- ened that he was when he was put asleep 187 hours before. He appeared to be slightly dazed. When he closed h's peepers there were—say 400 people in the Louse. dome, It was a pay crowd, too, that would have gladdened the heart of a Patti impresario, and the increase in attendance, according to Cheshire’s im- pression, occurred in less than five min- utes. When Kennedy told him he was all right he looked at the mesmerist with that sort 0. a glance that meant, “You're aliar.” He staggered about and came out with the conventional *“Where am 1?”” In another momet he realize. the situation, laughed frankly and endeavored to back up to the seat he had occupied a week before prior to being put asleep in the casket. If the man was acting a part it would be advisable for some enterprising impre- sario to secure his services. Siill, there were many people in the audience who went away strong in their. impression that taey were gulled in right royal fashion. Dr. Plymire took Cheshire’s pulse at 120 and nis respiration at 19 just as -oon as he was tuken out of his seven-day bed. Shortly after and when the fellow was awake his pulse dropped to 80. It was desirable to weigh the living corpse, and when he mujor part of the audience was dismissed, Dr. Plymire and Chesuire led the way out of the house. They were banked on” two sides by hun- dreds of people, and followed by hundreds more, Not a soul in the crowd seemed to know where scales were to be had. Cheshire, bowever, who is not a working- man when he is not in a trance, suggested that they go next door to the theater. On one side there was s vacant store and the other an open beer saloon. Into the latter the motley gang pushed to the delight of mine host, who showed himself truly grateful to the star of the occasion. But scales were not there and Cheshire suggested another saloon further down the line. At this place the proprietor greeted him with a hearty hand-shake, saying: ‘‘George, you.have done good, my boy.” George thought so, too. But rounds didu’t seem to come quickly enough to tbe man with a seven duys’ thirst, and he was agreeable to the suggestion that an- o her resort across the street be paid a visit. DOCTORS ON HYPNOTISM. Local Medical Men Have Various Opinions on the Subject. Boastful as doctors are about the accu- racy of medicine as a science, and careful as they are regarding ethics anda ‘‘up-to- date’’ ideas, it is a strange circumstance tuat they are about equally divided in opinion as to whether hypnotism is a great fact of nature or a great achieve- mentin physiological legerdemain. , Among ‘ocal physiciuns the great advo- cates of hypnotism as a truth too plain for denial are Drs. Joseph O. Hirsch- felder, Dr. A. A. d’Ancona, Dr. Leo New- mark and Dr. J. Dennis Arnold. There are many others, however, who deny hyp- notism, or at most guardedly admit that “if it is a science it 18 emRryonic.”” Such is the opinion of Dr. T. C. Maher. Many strange stories are iold of Dr. Hirschfelder's prowess as a hypnotist, which great accomplishment has done much to giv- him a large practice. Dr. J. 8. Barrett, ex-autopsy surgeon, and one of the most studious men in local medi- cine, was formerly associated with Dr. irschte.der at a prominent hospital. “I've seen half a dozen of his patients un- der hypnotic control at one time,” said Dr. Barrett yesterday, ‘‘and tnere is no question that he is a ereat hypnotist and that his power is appiiea in a scientific way. The question of a trance or sleep is estion of evidence. One man might fake a s umber and another be in one. If 2 man can be made tosleep five minutes he might be for five hours, or longer. I think a man truly hypnotized might sleep a week if he could be proverly fed.” Dr. Gerald Fitzgibbon, Dr. 8. C. Bald- win and Dr. John F. Morse had little to say of the matter. Dr. Fitzeibbon said: “I'do not believe a thing in this hypnotic business or in a mesmeric slumber or con- dition of semi-catalepsy. It is a good fairy story."” Dr. W. Coffey said: *'I think there is no question that there is such a thing as hyp- notism and that there is the possibility of a long h{pnotlc slumber. A man might be kept alive on whisky and liguid foods for a week or longer. I am not passing any opinion on Kennedy’s case, hating never seen the subject, but 1 am speaking in a general way.” Dr. Coffey 1elis some marvelous tales of the conduct of bis classmate, one Dr. Stearcs, who has wonderful hypnotic powers. ‘‘He used to cali men up to his office from the. street,” said Dr. Coffey, “and put them into all kinds of atfi- tudes. “‘He was a wonderful wag as well. Once be made a r fellow, an entire stranger, vull off his clothes in his office and strike out as if swimminy for dear life.’”” Dr. A. A. d’Ancona startled a number of nniversity studen.s last year by hyp- notizing a long horeman and causing him to repeat a long and intricate lecture on the physiology of the nervous system. He is professor of hypunotism in University. His Sube When ke opened | them the house was crowded from pit to | NEW TO-DAY—DRY GOODS. A B e ANDKERCHIER N AP DEPARTMENT! Special Offering!

ANOTHER CHINESE GIRL 1S MISSING Suie Gwok Fails to Return Home With Her Little Brother. Went to Buy Fruit and Suddenly Disappeared From the Sidewalk. Suie Ying Gwok, the 16-year-old daugh- ter of Chin Gwok, part proprietor of a| restaurant at 810 Jackson street, is missing from ber home. She was the only daugh- ter of the restaurant-keeper, and her ais- appearance has caused the wiidest excite- ment ameong the upper tet in Chinatown. There is not the slightest clew to her whereabouts. Miss Suie and her little brother, Chin, | left the paternal roof last Saturday even- ng at 8 o’clock for the purpose of purchas- ing some fruit at a stand kept by a China- man on Washinglon street, a few doors east of Dapont. The boy went up to the fruitstand to make the purchase, leaving his sister standing on the sidewalk. When he turned to leave he missed his sister. Thinking she had gone home, not caring to remaiu out in the rain, he went home and reported to his parents what had oc- curred. They shared the boy’s theory that the girl had returned alone and wou!d soon find her way home. But as the time grew late with no ap- pearance of the girl, the parents became alarmed and notified some of their huh- dreds of cousins of their ioss. Search was made for the girl in every direction, but to no avail. ' Additional efforts were made yesterday morning, but without finding her. Then Sergeant Anderson of the Chinatown squad was notified, but so far has| not been able to find her. No more clew can be found than if the earth had opened and swallowed ber., Throu h an interpreter her father statea that she was born in China sixteen years ago, but came to this City with her mother seven years ago, and has remained at home ever since. She had no visitors of the male sex and never was permitted to g0 out on the streets alone. She always had one of her brothers as a companion. _He fears she was kidnaped by high- binders and taken to some place until an og)por}umty presents for taking her out of the City ani disposing of her in the man- nes l:m:‘l (oézigl::bind;rs. etective Graham has been put on case by Chief Crowley, but he g)afdi!c:)bv? ered nothing yet.
