Complaint That His Clieats Have Not Besen Paid Money Said to Bz Due On the Other Hand the Commissioners | Sy They Are Right and Hav: More Than Money Enough. Police Commissioners Tobin, Alvord and Gunstand Chief Crowley awakened yester- day morring to find their hands tied go far as the management of the police pension fund was concerned. Tkis startling state of affairs was brought about because of a suit institnted by Counselor Alfred Clarke, familiarly known as “Nobby” Clarke, with the ostensible purposeof having the police | pension fund declared insolvent. Not only were the Police Commissioners nted from taking any action in re- prev gard to the fund, but Auditor Broderick | and Treasurer Widber were served with notices that they must neither receive nor pay out money on account of the find. A great many quarterly payments were due, and the delay of even a day would cause a great deal of uneasiness if not actual discomfort to those entitled to pen- sions. Mr. Clarke must bave chuckled, for, though he has brought nearly fifty suits against -the Police Comuissioners, he never before succeeded in causing them or their associates any inconvenience. 1t was his first success so far as worrying the opposition was concerned, and he was for a moment happy. But Lis joy was fleet- ing, for Deputy City Attorney W. I Bro- beck went before Presiding Judge Seawell and, after making a statement of the facts, secured an order from tue conrt set- ting aside the restraining order. The or- der to show cause why the fund should not be declared insolvent still stands, however, and Mr. Clarke yesterday giee- fully snnounced that he intended t0 press it to an early hearing. The complaint that has at last suc- ceeded in disturbing the equanimity of the Police Commissioners is a curiosity from the lawyers’ standpoint and is inter- esting to tue general reader. Following his custom Mr. Clarke bases his bill in equity on the constitution of the United States,in this instance alleging an invasion of the rights of his clients as, guaranteed to them under the pro- visions of the fourteenth amendment, | wiich provides that there shall be no dis- crimination in regard to the rights and privileges of persons, The bill in equity is entitied Fannie Burgess and otners against the Police Pension Fund—petition to have said fund declared insolvent. Among those men- tioned as parties to the vroceeding are: Fannie Burgess, Mary A. Daley, Mury C. Berges, Theresa M. Stevens, Hatiie De- laney, Elien Burdett, Elizabeth Magnin, Alired Clarke, administrator of the estate of Alexander Grant. The pleadings set forth the averment that the defendant is a corporation and a resident of this State and has been for eight years engaged in the insurance busi- ness and that the said corporation is and forsix months last past has been insolvent; further tbat others bave been illerally paid money out of the fund to the exrlu- sion of the petitioners, thus discriminat- ing against them and depriving them of rights guaranteed to them by the consti- tution of the United States. The petitioners complain that on the 30th of last September the Police Commis- | sioners made a zift o $30 to J. F. Moran with intent to hinder, delay and defraud its creditors, and that in contemplation of insolvency ‘the Commissioners made a further gift of $:70 to Moran. The defendunt commission being a bank and banker, the petition avers, hias failed for more than thirty days to pay certain moneys deposited with it in a fiduciary capacity on demand of payment. The liabilities of the defendant€ommis- sion for deaths in its mem bership exceed $20,000, and the assets on January 14, 1897, did not exceed $19,461 86. The managers, during the last eight ’_\-enr-,-nre accused of having paid out and | diverted a portion of the funds for their own use, a suit being necessary to recover the same. Mr. Clarke specifies that they paid to | George Clinton $46¢ , to Sheldon Pom- eroy $1695 50, to R. P. Hammond Jr. | $1000, to Wiliiam E. Hail $1500, makiug a total of over $11,800. g The liabilities of the fund at this time | are said to exceed §37.592, and that the as- sets do not exceed $19,462; so it is alleged that the defendant can now pay 52 cents on the dollar (or a shade less)on its lia- bilities. Furihermore, it is declared that the in- | come is approximately $1100 a month and the liabilties $1600 a month. | Mr. Clarke adds that there is no reason- abie probab:lity that the defendant under its present management can recover a | solvent condition, and each month of its | continuance must result in an increase of | its accumulated insolvent debt by a montbly deficienc The most serious all in equity is that the ma iliegally paid R. P. Hummond Jr. $1000 on the pretense that his father, formerly | a member of the Board of Police Commis- sioners, with a salary of $250 a month, was msured in the fund, altbough he had | never been a contributor thereto as.other beneficiaries of the fund had been. The | fact that payment of a great many claims bad been resisted' by the Commissioners is referred to by Mr. Clarke, who adds that “‘the management while willing to Jitigate with widows, was puerile and timid in its dealings with men of political | strength. It paid George Clinton $4693 54 | jor pension from March 4, 1889, and the | same amount to Sheldon Pomeroy, under the pretended sanction of section 13 of the pension law.” At the office of the Police Commis- sioners the latest suit is spoken of lichtly, | though it is freely admitted that all per- sons connected with the department are weary of Mr. Clarke’s vexaious litiga- tion. It seems to be impossible to get rid of him or shake him off in any way, un- less ne finally runs out of causes for com- plaint, which seems a hopeless outlook, as be has a fertile brain for conjuring up ex- cuses for damages. In additicn to the suits in the Stale courts Mr. rke has about a dozen suits pending in the United States courts. | At the office of the Police Commis- | | sioners it was stated yesterday that the pension fund instead of being in danger of insolvency has a big surplus every year. Its sources of revenue are as follows: First—Not less than 5 nor more than 10 per cted and received from ing of places wherein ous, malt or other intoxicating liauors { on in the bill ers of the fund | Sccond—One-half of all moneys received trom taxes or from licenses upon dogs. Third—Ail moneys received irom fines m- posed upon members of the poice force of | snid county, city and_county, city or town for | violation of the rules and regulations of the Police Department. Fourth—All proceeds of sales of unclaimed propert; Fiith—Not less then one-fourth nor more | than one-iialf of ail moneys received from li- censes from pawnbrokers, billiard-hali keep- second-hand denlers and junkstores. Sixth—All moneys received from fines for carrying concealed weapons. Seventh—Twenty-five per cent of all fines collected in money for violation of county, city and county, city or town ordinances. Eighth—All rewards given or paid to mem- bers of suen police force, except such &s shall be excepted Ly the Chiel of Police. Ninth—Two dollars a month from each mem- ber of the Police Department. The direct receipts 1ast year figured up in this manner: ContFbuiions of officers. | Fines of ofticers. ¥ines and forieitures, Police courts. Sale of police effects. | | | 5 | spirit $13,405 00 145 00 6,050 37 79415 39462 | This revenue, supplemented by the re- ceipts from the first, second and fiith sources, yielded <o much that there was a sarplus of $20,000, which was conveyed into the general fund of the City treasury. Attorney Brobeck says that he has made an iuvestigation, and that he can- not see how the police pension fund can ever fail to have a surplus of from $15,000 to $20,000 & year. _Mr. Ciarke’s abllity to initiate litiga- tion, while it is boundle:s, seems to end there. He has not yet won a sult, and his complaints have been knocked out by the couris, one by one, as fast as reached, Harry Steffens Gets a Thousand.

Difficulty in Securing Convictions of Persons Who Violate the Game Law. The experience of a Deputy Fish and Game Commissioner is not always pleas- ant, and instead of receiving encourage- ment in discharge of their duties in pro- tecting fish and game these officials frequently have to contend with the The Fish’ Trap That Deputy A. G. Fletcher Took From a Creek Near Cloverdale. greatest obstacles and annoyances. Such was the experience of Deputy A. G. Fietcher in Cloverdale recently. Word was received at the Fish Commissioners’ office that there was a salmon trap in Sul- phur Creek, near Cioverdale, and he started out to destroy the”trap and arrest the offenders, for it is against the law to use such contrivances at any time or kill salmon out of season, After a considerable search along Sui- pur Creek Fietcher found the trap. It was crude, but effectual, for the purpose in- tended. It was made of willow suckers in the shape of a huge waste-basket, and at the mouth was a concave cover with a hole in the center, through which the could pass. Once inside it was ‘“good-by, salmoun.” In fact, there was one salmon in the trap when the deputy arrived. As Mr. Fletcher wanted to arrest the offend- ers he secreted himself in the bushes on | the bank of the stream and waited. Alter o while two men armed with salmon spears appeared, but before they reached the trap a third man appeared, who evidently warned the two that the deputy was naar, for he Lad seen the deputy in a buggy up the road. A little later a Sonoma Indian ap- proached, and the men with the spears toid him there was o fish in the trap, and oor Lo fell a victim at once. While Mr. letcher would have preferred to arrest the white men he was compelled to arrest the person who actually took the fish from the trap. However, Mr. Fletcier took the salmon spears from the two men and broke the ugly implements to pieces, Then he staried for town with the pris- oner, who gave the name of Charlie La- moon, and the salmon and the fishtrap. The men whose spears he had broken preceded Mr. Fletcher, and by the time the iatter arrived in Cloverdale the wiole of the tough eiement of the town wasout and gave him a hot reception. All kinds of insulting remarks were made. The prisoner was duly charged with violating the game law and the fish and trap were dteji“o“wd in Justice of the Peace Connor's office. Then the trouble began in earnest. By the tway, Mr. Fletcher learned that the names of the two men whose spears he had broken were Charies McPherson and Walter McPherson, his cousin. All that day a gang of town hoodiums followed Mr. Fletcher and saluted him with rish- horns. When he sat in the hotel the gang, led by the McPhersons, appeared at the windows and tooted their tin horns. Once, when he was on the street, one of | | | | | the party showed an_inclination to use a DAVIS BROS CAUSE SURPRISE The Golden Rule Bazaar Passes Into Other Hands. Their Partnership Will Expire During This Month by Limitation. Affairs Prosperous and Personal R:- lations Cordial, but a Clash on Equities. The dissolution of the partnership of Davis Bros. of the Golden Rule Bazaar after twenty-six years of unprecedented business success, will call forth only ex- pressions of regret from the community. The business was started in 1871 by the brothers Ansley, Eugene and Andrew in a very mondest way at 419 Kearny street. Their push and business enterprise were manifest from the start. They established numerous branches of their business in this City and elsewhere. In 1888 Eugene retired irom the firm, and now the brothers Ansley and An- drew’s partnership having dissolved by limitation and tkey being unable to agree as to the manner of liquidatior, it was deemed best to select three weil-known and influential men to act as liquidators, and so the Golden Rule Bazaar passes into other hands. The Golden Rule Bazaar has always been a most popular store, and it will doubtless lose none of its popularity under the new management. The force con- stantly employed at their places of busi- ness numbers from 150 to 600 employes, according to the seasons of the year. An arrangement was perfected on Mon- day by which the business and good will of Davis Bros. was purchased by a cor- poration consisting of W. P. Morgan of the Meridea Britannia Company, Albert Meyer of Daniel Meyer & Co. and Gustave Frederick, cashier of the London and San Francisco Bank, and vesterday the new owners took possession.

Before the case agains the Indian came up for trial Charles Mc Pher=on, on the sdvise of a practitioner of the law named Hoyl, swore out a plaint against the deputy for mal ous mischief for breaking the fish spears, but | Mr. Fietcher was released on bail. The singular feature is that Judge Connor issued the warrant for the arrest of a State ofticer without first submitting the com- plaint to the District Attorney of the county. Wien the case of the Indian came up for irial it was found that some one had stolen the fish from the sack and substi- tuted a log of wood. been broken. All marked the course of the trial, but the confession of the Indian in an unguarded moment that he had taken the fish in the | stream settiea the case, and he was held for trial in the Superior Courr. Justice Connor, however, volunteered ihe remark that his sympathy was with the offender, and that he would not fiave held him but for the confession. At the trial the two McPaersons swore that they did not see any fish in the trap, Deputy Fletcher, bowever, found several who said that they would make affidavit that the McPhersons had _told openly of having seen the salmon. When this was learned the deputy made preparations for several arrests for perjury, but he has not made them yet. Yesterday he learned that the charge against himself had been dismissed by the District Attorne He said that this is frequently the experience of deputies who endeavor to enforce the game laws in the country. TRIED FOR MUTINY. The Crew of the Schooner Elsie Comes to Grief. The seven members of the crew of the schooner Elsie who refused to do work they were commanded to do on January 13 were bafore Commissioner Heacock yes- terday on preliminary examination for mutiny. It was shown that Sailor George Moore and Captain Currie had a dispute about | lighting the sidelights, after which Moore tried to induce the crew not to work. The captain testified that the crew would not do anything, and asaresplt the schooner had to be returned to this port. The crew had shipped from Port Town- send to go on a hunting and fishing expe- dition. ———— © At the Clericus. At the Monday meeting of the Clericus Dr. W. A.

The brothers have not been able to agree on lines of policy and management for | not of a personal nature. Their views as 1o their respective interests were diverse, and rather than go to law and have the property pass into the hands of a receiver ihey decided to have the gentlemen men- tioned act as liquidators.

My brother owned the larger share, and the only difficulty that arose wasin the matter of a vroper settlement. “On this we did not disagree, strictly | speaking, but merely were unable to agree in regard to the equities of the firm’s property. The trouble was not of a per- sonal nature, and to-dey the relations ex- isting between us are as coraial as ever. “We did not care, however, to perpet- uate the partnership, and each was will- ing to buy the other out, but the different valuations we both placed on the store and its fixtures rendered this impossible. So we turned the property over to Messrs. Morgan, Meyer and Frederick to act as liquidators. ““They virtually own everything now. Wken the property is sold my brother and I will receive our shares.
