i THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1896. 9 KEARNY AND THIRD FALL INTO LINE Special Illumination From Geary to Montgomery Street. And® From Market Street All the Way Down to Towa- send Street. The New Lights on Kearny Sireet‘ May Be Turned On Next Saturday Night. The progressive merchants of Kearny streer have concluded to take a hand in the special illumination of streets which now seems to be so popular. Consider- ing’ the progress that is being made Kearny street before the end of this week will be a biaze of glory at night from Geary street as far as Montgomery avenue. Several leading merchants talked over the scheme a few daysago, and decided to ask the Merchants’ them to carry it out. The exchange lent a willing hand through Secretary Freud and Ass istant Secretary King. Canvass- eré.were at once put into the field, and anch success has been met with that there | now. no doub: that the street will be rilliantly illuminated. Employesof theelectric light company have. been at work two days stringing wires and hanging the new arc lights. By Saturday night it is expected to turn on. the new lights for the first time, at | ledsy as far down as California street. hree new arc lights will be suspended n each block. One will be in the center of ‘each street intersection, and the other | two distributed atequal distances through block. With the large number of | atearc and incandescent lights aiready ng'on the street three additional es, it is thought, will give all the illu- | ination desirable if hung in the cen- of the street, where the light rays | shoot out in all directions. The rty-owners agres to pay at the rate en cents per front foot, and the ten- nts -four cents a front foot for the new t -has been reported that so far the | perty-owners on Kearny street, be- tween Clay and Washington, have been slow in responding.

In my canvass to-day I met with but one refusal and there were a number who asked time until to-day or to-morrow to consider the | matter. Sixty contracts will have to be secured before the company will put up the lights. From the promises I received I am confident that that number will be secured Wednesday afternoon. “It is proposed to light up but two blocks for the present—that is, as far south as Howard street. Now, if the people south of that line want improvements they will have to appoint a committee to get signatures. There will be, as on Sixth street, six lights toa block, and when the sixty signatures are secured the contracts will be turned over to the Merchants’ As- sociation, which will see that the lights are put in.”’ P The following is a list of the signers se- cured yesterday : A.de Nole, 1 N | Owens & starr, | Vicker & Broderic] George ¥ 1z7.éni. th street; H.

OAROLINE KUSEL'S PLAINT. A Fair Young Wife Tired of Her Rich Oid Husband. | The complaint for divorce filed by Caro- | line Kusel against Solomon Kusel yester- | day is another revelation of the difficulty }which grows out of marriage when the | husband is old and homely and the wife is quite the reverse. Mrs. Kusel’s complaint alleges that her | | husband is quite wealthy and that he gets | | & good income from valuable real estate |and several big houses. She says he | promised herevery comfort and a happy home, but that as soon-as the wedding ceremony was over his demeanor changed and that his treatment of her was that ofa sruel, crabbed, harsh, penurious and pet- tish man. All promises of comfort were disre- garded- and Kusel insisted - on miserly methods in conducting the household. He used vile langnage to her and frequentiy threatened her life, at one time forcing | her from their house at 1151 Guerrero | street, | She says her heaith has been impaired | by ber husband’s treatment, asks permis- sion'to resume her maiden name, demands | a large share of the property and wantsto | have it paid to herin pulk lest her hus- | band should die and leaveher without | alimony or other means of support. i A Witness Says He Heard Judge Hastings Ask This of Mrs. Keller. Said He Had Lots of Money and Could Keep Her Like a Lady. The deposition of Thomas J. Durand notary in the office of Sullivan & Sulli- | van in the matter of the contest of the will | of the late Judge Hasting | Durand is a miner, and intends to leave | the City on a prospecting tour in a few days, which is the reason for taking the deposition at this time. He testified that | he lodged in the house kept by Mrs. Kel- | ler, the contestant and putative widow, in | 1876, at 225 O'Farrell street; that he fre- | quentiy met Judge Hastings there when | the latter came to call upon his landlady; that she frequently spoke to him of the | Judge as a sui.or for her hand; that one evening he (the witness) was in the front | parlor when the Judge called to pay his | addresses to Mr«. Keller. They were seated | in the back parlor, hesaid, the sliding | doors being not altogether closed, so that | VALLEY ROAD ALL READY - T0 BUILD INTO BAKERSFIELD The Only Serious Obstacle That Is Now Encountered Is the Lack of the Through Right of Way From Fresno. who will meet Rochette in a ten-round contest, is one of the best 1n his class, but I have every reason to believe that Charley will give him a hot argument from start to finish. Now, then, what better attrac- tion could you ask for chan the ten-round bout between Jimmy Anthony and Jack Ward of Newark, N. J. The Eastern man has whipped everything of his inches he has encountered, and he is sanguine of ad- ding another scalp to his belt when he finishes with the little chunky Australian. Anthony is much shorter in reach of arms than his prospective opponent, but he wili make up for the handicap in this particular when he gets to mixing things with tBe Newark lad. You can gamble on seeing & fight that will keep your blood warm, however. Of course, there will be also some preliminary bouts.” Jimmy Anthony is no longer under the wing of old Barney Farley. Billy Jordan said last evening that Jimmy “flew the coop'’ a few weeks ago, as Barney was holding out for too much long green. Anthony is reported as being in first-class shape. The sports of Sacramento are taking a very keen interest in -the Johnson-Van Buskirk ten-round contest, which will take place on Friday cvening before the Sacramento Athletic Club. This is what RAILS AND TIES ON THE GROUND. Within Four Months the Road Could Be Rushed to Com- pletion. DEPOTS AND WATER STATIONS BEING ESTABLISHED. Special Excursion Trains With Re duced Fares to Be Run to Fresno. Notwithstanding the factthat extension work on the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley Railway has been temporarily dis- continued, there is nucessation in activity aiong the portion of the line already com- pleted, comprising 125 miles between Stockton and Fresno. In order to give the earliest possible re- lief to the producers and merchants of the valley from the extortionatte charges of the Southern Pacific the road was opened for freight before the proper commodations could be provided for most conveniently handling freight. It is to remedy these shortcomings that the most energetic efforts are now being put forth. The improvements now under way com- prise sidings, freight and passenger de- pots atseveral of the stations and a round- house and turntable at Fresno. Merced and Escalon have already each been provided with a combination h-atlght and passenger depot,and similar struc- tures are going up at Elmwood, Geneva, La Grand and Lankershim. tach of these will cost about $5000. At Fresno an im- mense freight depou is rapidly assuming shape on Q street, between Kern and Inyo. A portion of this is to be used temporarily as a passenger depot, and by spring a handsome and commodious pas- senger depot will be commenced. The freizht depot alone at this point is to cost The combination structures at Escalon, Elmwood, Geneva, La Grand and Lanker- shim will not only afford accommodations for passengers and the handling of freight, but overhead will be living-rooms for the station agent of the company. Work on the roundhouse and the turn- table, for which the contracts were re- cently awarded, is well advanced. Extension work south of Fresno will in all probability not be begun until the early part of February. The bonds which it is proposed to sell to provide funds for the construction of the road between Fresno and Bakersfield and between Stockton and San Francisco are still in the engraver’s hands, and it is not likely that any at- tempt will be made to float them until after the new year dawns. But this will not interfere with track construction south of Fresno. The next obstacle to progress in thatdirection 1s the lack of a continuous right of way. As already anndunced there will be two lines out of Fresno, One will run via Hanford and the other probably via Reedley and Visalia. again south of Hanford, near Lake Tulare. The two lines will come tocether | ac- | the Sacramento Bee says of the men: Johnson's Sacramento friends have long hoped tnat the Oiympic Club of San Franciseo would dig up some one to go against him and when the news of a mateh between Johnson and Van Buskirk' was announced it was hailed with great joy. Itis quite certain that there will be a great crowd in the old Pavilion on the mnight of the 11th inst., to witness the ten-round contest. It will pe for a purse of $400, to say nothing ot the laureis that will be placed upon the brow of the victor. “Billy” Johnson feels confident that he is going to win. This is to be the biggest match he has ever entered and he is going to do his level best to beat out Van Buskirk. He knows that the eyes of Caltforniasportsareall turned toward Sacramento and, if he can doit, heis going 10 hold up the banner of his home town, But Johnson is aware of the fact that he has no picnic ahead of him. He knows that Van Buskirk is recogniz=d as a great boxer—great both in seience and strength. Eddie Greany it is saxd will soon be in- terested in a new club which will be known as the Pheeaix Club. In all probability the first match that will be consummated will be between George Green of this City and Tommy Ryan or Troy—that is pro- vided the last named pugilist can be inauced to journey to this City. It was reporied last evening that the Golden West Club had closed a contract petween Peter Maher and Joe Choynski ior a ten-round contest in this City. Any number of matches are being made, but the public wiil take little interestin fuiure events unless 1t can place some con- fidence in the referees. MR, LENT ALLEGES FRAUD Brings Action to Recover $2320 For J. J. O'Farrell’s Creditors. Claims That Money Was Turned Over to Treasurer Widber With Intent to D=fraud. Another suit has been begun in the Su- perior Court as the result of the failure and assignment of John J. O'Farrell, the real estate dealer, last summer, and the tion, but the court instructed him to answer the question. He replied that he had been perseeuted by bad men against whom he had made charges and he had left Parliament be- cause he refused to apologize for charges he had made. In reply to the question by Attorney Jordan as to whether he had ever “swin- dled General Gates out of $1000,” Witness Woodworth hesitated and finally admitted he knew a George Gaies, with whom he had trouble over a mine. In reply to questions as to where the mine ihat’ is offered 1o Mr. Spreckels is located, the witness said itis in Amador County, in the mountainous part; of that county, but he did not describe its metes god bounds. When asked if anybody knows where it is, he replied that his son does. The witness said at first that he did not know the age of his son, who he said is an expert, but later said that he is about 20 years of age. He became con- fused and indignant by turns. He denied that he proposed to Hudelson to offer Mr. Spreckeg the mine. He denied that Hudelson had called him a blackmailer and ordered him out of his office. Wood- worth promised to produce his son io describe the mine, but he was unable to do so himself. He said he intended to bay the mine from a man named Har- lowe. The case will be resumed at 2o'clock this afternoon. ¥ No Job Lots. DuRrING November we closed out every dol- lars worth of shop-worn job lots in our store.

Frederickson, owners of the schooner Evie, have begun a libel in the United States District Court against the British bark Ivercoe and the tug Vigilant. In their libel they set forth that on the 4th inst. the schooner was departing from McNear's wharf, Port Costa, ‘with 2543 sacks of grain, and swungout on the ebb tide. The bark, attached to the tug, rounded the point and coliided with the schooner, making it necessary to beach the little vessel, The latter was damaged to about $1000 and the cargo to about $1500. The libel- ants claims that they were unabie to prevent the collision, but that the Ivercoe, being un- der the control of a tug, eouid have easily got out of the way. NEW TO-DAY.

Local com- mittees are now engaged securing the right of way. Material for this extension is now being stacked up at Fresno. The rails have al- ready been ordered sufficient to !ay the entire track from Fresno to Bakersfield. A Jarge portion of them are now at Fres- no and the remainaer are on the way. There is also a large quantity of ties and trimmings on hand. As soon as the through right of way is secured the work of construction will be rushed. From the present outiock a start will not be possible befors February, but when once the first rail is laid south of the limits of Fresno it will not be more than four months before Bakersfield will be enjoying the same full ana snbstantial benefiis of railroad competition that have proved such a blessing and relief to the people between Stockton and Fresno. The only check to putting the 110 miles of track between Fresno and Bakersfiela down at the rate of a mile a day will be the three big bridges that will have to be r the Kings River and Each of these struct- ures is to cost $30,000. All the plans are ready, but the material bas not yet been ordered, nor can it or will it be until the right of way situation is cleared of all un- certainty. by The company’s rolling stock is sufficient to operate the entire 235 miles between Stockton and Bakersfield, at least for the present. Among other important improvements in progress is the establishment of water stations at Stockton, Escalon, Elmwood, La Grand, Lankershim and Fresno. Wells are heing sunk, and pumps and tanks erected. The exvense at each station thus equipped will not be less than $1500. At Merced and Kresno the water will be obtained from the city supply. In order to accommodate those who desire to visit Fresno during the continu- ance of the citrus fair there, a special train service will be operated at reduced fares. The fair wili be open from the 14th to the 19th of December inclusiye, and re- turn tickets will be sold from this City from the 12th to the 18th inclusive and from other points until the 19th, These will be good to return until the 21st. The return fare from San Francisco will be $5 40, and from Stockton $4 90. From in- termediate poinis one and one-third fares will be charged for return tickets. Trains ‘will be ran daily each way ana provisions bave been made to accommodate 500 peo- ple on each day. BATTLES ON TAP, is plaintiff in a suit and petition for an injunction against Irwin C. Stump; S:sson, Crocker & Co., a corporation; A. C. Wid- ber, Treasurer, and C. F. Curry, Cterk for the City and County of San Fran cisco. The complaint reiates that in October, 1894, Mary T. Moore filed in the Superior Court a complaint for Marguerite D. Hope and other owners, asking for a partition of land and a division of the proceeds; taat t he proceedings were had _and John J. O'Farrell, Henry E. Coffey and Charles 8. O'Byrne were appointed referees to sell the property. The property was finally sold for $23,200, March 31 last. By the terms of sale the purciaser paid 10 percent of the purchase price, the remainder on confirmation by the court, and $2320 was paid and, the com- plaint says, received by O’Farrell; that O'Farrell had a personal bank account with the Donoboe-Kelly Banking Com- pany and deposited the $2320 there in his own personal account; that the dcposit bad no distinguishing mark and was not distingwishable from other money, and all made but one fund; that the account was subsequently withdrawn by O Farrell, who converted it to his own usg and never paid it into court; that none oi this money wasthe money received by O'Farrell on account of the sale. The complaint further sets forth that all the in:erests of (he various parties to the Moore-Hope action, except those of Irwin C. Stump and Sisson, Crocker Co., haye been determined; that a final decree is expected in a few days and that the Treasurer will, unless restrained oy order of the court, pay the money in accordance with the final judg- ment; that O’Farrell, with a view ol pre- venting the $2320 from cominginto the hands of his assignee in insolvency and prevent the same from being distributed ratably among his creditors, and to evade and defeat th: insolvent debtor act, paid the money to Treasurer Widber; that Curry and Widber and the other defend- ants had come to believe that O'Farrell was insolvent and made the pavment for the purposes stated; that O'Farrell’s lia- bilities are $104,343 14 and his asséts about ,000. Assignee Lent prays the court for judg- ment to the effect that the $2320 be re- turned to him as assets, with interest from August 29; that a restraining order be issued directing the Treasurer to keep the money in his possession pending the ter- mination of this action and ordered to de- liver the sum to him. — ————————— WOODWORTH AS WITNESS.
