8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1896. MBS, FAIRYS ESTATE S PROSPEROUS, It Is Gaining in Value More Than $2000 a Month. : Trustee Dey Draws Something Like $20,000 for His Services. Mrs. Theresa' Ann Oelrichs Appears as One of the Debtors of Her | Mother’s Estate. John W. Mackay and Richard V. Dey bave filed their first and second annual accounts as trustees of the estate of Mrs. Theresa Fair, deceased. The first account bears date of October 25, 1895, and was sworn to on that day, but was presented | to the Probate Court only yesterday. The list of bills allowed shows com- mendable economy in the management of tie estate, the gas bill at the residence in this City, for instance, averaging only 60 cents a month, except when Mrs. Qelrichs and Miss Fair were here for four weeks, when the gas cost $3250. Byron Waters and W. F. Herrin come in for some mod- erate attorneys’ fees in tax suits, amount- ing to about $1500 in a!l, but as Mr. Dey acts as attorney for himself and Mr. Mackay in the management of the trust, no lawyers' fees are incurred on that ac- count. The care of the house costs $30 a month and the care of the garden $75 a month. One cause of considerable expense is the Bella Vista Hotel, which requires repairs nearly every month, but as $600 2 month rent is collected o account of that hotel, the property shows a net income. January, 1895, may be regarded as a sample month so far as receipts are con- cerned. Itshows receipts as follows: Pacific Improvement Company, one tuonth’s interest on note $200.000, 8t 6 per cen: per annum. . $1,00000 | Mrs. Volney Spalding, rent of Bi | Vista Hotel for December, 1894.... 60000 | W. S. Hobart, rent Pine-s reet stable for January, 1895 i 7590 | Eouthern Pacific Railway Company of Arizona, 6-per-cent bonds, six months’ interest on $1.885,000........ 56,650 00 est Shore Ruilway 4-per-cent six mon:hs’ interest on $27,000...... 54000 | Commercial Cable Company’s stock, dividend on 625 shares at $1 75 per | share....... i N 008 T | Total for month.... $69,858 75 | In July of 1895 the Pacific Improvement Company paid $1000 as interest on their o $200,000 note and $375- as_interest on their £75,000 note; the Northern Railway of | California paid interest amounting to $42, 890; the Southern Pacific Railroad of A Zzona paid six months’ interest on § 000, amounting to $38,550, and a few minor | sums was also collected. The insurance premium on the Bella Vista Hotel, the property being valued at $144,000, amounts to $2380 a year. Messrs. Mackav and Dey paid to Tax Collector Block $10,712 05 as taxes on per- sonal property, under wvrotests, and suit for the recovery of that money is yet pend- ing. fohn W. Mackay and R.V.Day were paid as esecutors fees in fuil as per order of the Probate Court $3960 89. Mr. Mackay waived his share in favor of Mr. Dey. During the time covered by the first re- port a large amount was paid tc the heirs on account of ‘their inheritance and their monthly allowances. Of this Mrs. The- resa A. Oelrichs took $240,460 on the 20th of February, 1885, and Virginia Fair and Charles L. Fair were granted their regular allowances of $2500 and $500 a month re- spectively. The year's report shows a decrease of assets on hand, the reduction being ac- counted for by the extraordinary outlays required in settling with the heirs for cer- tain pressing claims. The trustees re- ceived from the execulors on August 20, 1894, the sum of $477,688 28, and on August 20, 1895, they had on hand $354,05417. Th~ year’s disbursements amounted to 2,756 18. I'he balance was re) as follows: Notes of Company, $275,000; A. Oelrichs, $14,732 rted to be invested acific Improvement note of Mrs, Theresa cash in_American | Exchange National Bank of New York, $17,450 67; cash in Nevada Bank of San Francisco, $45,87984; cash on hand, $991 66. The report for the year ending August 20, 1896, is in great part a repetition of the transactions of the previous year, with the exception that Mrs. Oelrichs bad in- creased her indebtedness to the estate of her mother, and that on October 30, 1895, the Pine-street stable property was sold to Walter S. Hobart for $11.000 Tnereceipts for the year wert $204,119 38, and the expenditures for the same period were $74,691 39. These outlays included a monthly allowance of $2500 to Virginia Fair and $500 to Charles L. Fair. 8, V. Smith and Mrs. C. B. Smith borrowed $30 000 from the estate. The balance reported August 20, 1896, is $483,482 16, showing a gain of over $29,- 000 for the year, invested as follows: Notes of Pacitic Development Company, $335,- 000; notes of Mrs. Oelrichs, $§94,196; note of Mr.and Mrs. Smith, $30,000; cash in American Exchange Bank of New York, $11,827 50; cash in Nevada Bank of San Francisco, $10,938 49; cash on band, $1520 17. Mr. Mackay’s aflidavit to this second year's account was taken in New York City on the 7th dav of the present month and Mr. Dey swore to his repert on the 16th inst. Following the affidavit of Messrs. Mackay and Dey in each case, that their report is true and just in every particuiar, is the following attestation by Mrs. Oe- richs and Miss Fair, the years only dif- fering: I declare that I haye fully examined the foregoing accounts of the trustees of the estate of Theresa Fair, deceased, running from the 20th of August, 1894, to the 20th of Au- gust, 1895, with the vouchers accompanying the same, and am fully informed in relation thereto; and 1 approve of, ratify and confirm | the said accounts as being in ali respects just and true, and the expenditures and outlays therein specified were properly made. And I consent to the settlement and allowance of said account, without notice being given of the time and place of such settlement. THERESA ANN OELRICHS, VIRGINIA FAIR. In all the management of the trust Mr. Mackay nas leit the active work to Mr. Dey and has yielded to him all the emo! ments growing out of the trust. For the two years ending in last August these emoluments amounted to something like $40,000. Judge Coffey has fixed to-morroy as the day for hearing the application settie the account, at which time all parties in- terested are invited to be present. Damages for Injuries. The Supreme Court has denied a new trial to D. M. Osborne & Co., against whom James H. Gaggin secured a judgment for damages on aecount of the fall of a freight elevator. Present Location on Telegraph Hill of the Familiar Time Ball That May Be Moved to the Ferry Tower. The time-ball that every day at exactly 12 o’clock slides down a pole on the summit of Telegraph Hill will, through the suggestion of the United States Hydro- graphic Burean, probably be moved to the top of the high tower on the new ferry building, directly at the end of Market street and midway of the extensive and busy o water front. A letter was received by the Chamber Hughes of the local hydrographic office. of Commerce yesterday from Lieutenant He called attention to the propriety and advisability of the change when the tower of the new public building shall have been completed and ready to-accommodate the ball and the little eiectrical mechanism controlling it and operated by wire from the Mare Island Navy-yard. The reasons given for the change are that the ball is now on private property, the Jpicturesque mock castle with its wooden batilements belonging to Mayor-Sutro. new ferry building is public property. Its heart of the City, conspicuousiy &t the en midst of the shipping. The ferry building The tower will be at the very entrance to the d of the main thoroughfare and in the is practically being paid for by shipping interests, and 1f any immediate aavantage should accrue to the shippers on that account, it is believed that when the time-ball must be moved to public propen\y iv’) ought to pe piaced on the ferry tower. For the last nine years the time-ball has daily been drawn up to the top of the poie'on the main tower of the old and long-unused Telegraph Hill beer-castle. Each day it has remained near the top of the pole during the ten minutes preceding the noon hour, and citizens have watched and their chronometers to the correct time. waited for it to drop that they might set Captain William L. Merry, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, looks with favor upon the proposed change. He said meet on January 12 they will undoubtedly that the time-ball be moved to the ferry tower. yesterday that when the trustees again recommend to the Harbor Commissioners He thinks that the proposed location would be a better one than the tqp of Telegraph Hill, where, he asserts, the fall is bidden in thick weather. On the other hand the ferry tower, though it wouid not be wisible 1o shipping north and west of Telegraph Hill, would be in plain sight of all outward-bound vessels. At the office of the Harbor Commissioners nothing had yet been heard of the pro- posed change. weather signal station will‘be roved to the ing, oran auxiliary weather signal station it shall have been compieted a vear hence, for from the flags could be displayed to great advantage. T One of the officers bad been informed, however, that either the main ferry tower from the top of the Mills build- will surely be located in the tower when top of the tower the signal ime-ball, though it appears like a toy balloon in size, is four feetin diameter, and so large that two men reaching around it can just touch each other’s hands. It is made of black painted canvas over an iron framework, HD WORE PELS ON THE SDEWALIS An Ordinance Passed by the Supervisors Yes- terday. Supervisor Taylor Resigned One O.fice to Accept Another. The Lights on Valencia Street Will Not Be Changed From Gas to Electric Lamps. No more will the slippery banana or orange peel endanger the life and limb of the unconscious pedestrian, if the order of the Supervisors is obeyed. The ordi- nance proposed by the Board of Health. making the throwing of such rubbish on the floors of public buildings, on the side- walks or in streetcars was finally passed, and now only awaits the Mayor’s signa- ture to become a full-fledged law. The board indefinitely postponed con- sideration of the order prohibiting expec- toration in like places. Thisis equivalent to rejecting the matter entirely unless the incoming board decides to take it up and help out the Board of Health. Supervisor Hobbs made a vain effort to revive the matter of lighting Valegcia street from Market to Twenty-fifth with electric lamps instead of the gas lights now in use. The subject was discussed some time ago, but no action was taken beyond an adverse report for the commit- tee, and the member trom the Eleventh tried to have it passed on a resolution fathered by bimself. Only two votes were recorded in favor of the measure. In order to pave his way to accepting theoffice of Gas and Water Inspector, to which he was recently elected by a unani- mous vote of the board, Supervisor C. L. Taylor tendered his resignation as a mem- ber of the board, to take effect on Decem- ber. 31. It was accepted, and Mr. Taylor will assume his new duties on Jan- uary 1. His bond, in tbe sum of $10,000, with L. Van Lack and R. D. Chandler as sureties, was approved. His offive is now being renovated and arranged in expectation of his occupancy. o e STREET IMPROVEMENTS. Detslls of the Matters of This De- partment Passed, Upon by the Board.

They Were Arrested by Three O ficers in the Western Addition. Daly Had a Long Dagger in His Pocket and Deary a Quantity of Burglars’ Tools. Two men, who are suspected by the police of being implicated in many of the recent burglaries in the City, were arrested last night by Detective Wren and Police- men Harry Hook and Amos Williams. The men are James Daly and Martin Deary, who have been in the burglary business for soveral years, and have served terme for their crimes. The three officers had been specially de- tailed to keep a vigilant lookout for the burglars, and their suspicions fell upon Daly and Deary. They were closely watched and last night they were captured while prowling round a house in the Western Addition. They atiempied to get away but the offi- cers were too quick for them, and in a few minutes they were overpowered and manacled. ‘When searched at the City Prison a murderous looking dagger with a sharp blade about eight inches long was found in Dalv’s pocket. It was in a sheath- knife, and is one of the most formidable looking weapons that could be conceived. Deary had a number of skeleton keys in his pockets, and a “jimmy,” showing that both men were fully prepared for busi- ness. They are both desperate looking men, and Deary’s complexion would lea to the belief that he had Indian blood in his veins. The men were registered on the detinue book, and meantime the police will en- deavor to bring home some of the recent burglaries to them. Otherwise Daly will have a charge of carrying a concealed weapon booked against him and Deary a charge of having burglars’ tools in his possession. Their capiure is looked upon as an im- portant one, but the police refuse to give out any particulars concerning theirarrest, Divorce Suit: Filed.
