The Arago Decision Charac- terized as on a Line With the Dred Scot. TREATMENT OF THE SAILOR A BLOT ON THE FLAG Telegrams From S:nators Perkins and White and Congressman Maguire. meeting protesting against the amend- ments offered to House bills by Senator Frye. He spoke at some length, characterizing the treatment accorded to sailors by sane- tion of law as infamous: that the idea thata master of a ship should be judge and executioner over his men was repug- nant to every American. The Mayor was warmly applauded at the close of his address. James H. Barry was introduced. “Ifever a man deserved a roast,” he said, “it is that man Frye of Maine. I tell you chattel slavery does exist in this land of the free and brave. Itdoes exist, but, by the great Jehovab, it sball be abol- ished. These four men of the Arago, for no crime, except that they desired to leave the employment where they ware cruelly treated, were imprisoned nine months and until released under habeas corpus. They remained at liberty until the United States Supreme Court sent them back to prison again. “Iknow that it is treading on dangerous ground to criticize the members of that high tribunal, but we must still remember that that court is sill composed of only men [applause], and some of them pretty bad men too. [Renewed applause.] Some of them we know bought the high posi- tion they bold. Some of them were cor- poration attorneys befors acquiring their place on the bench, and itis in the interest of those corporations that the Su;reme Court has given such judgments as this.” L. Hoey, acting secretary of the Sailors’ union, in a short address saii the Arago | decision was on a line with the Dred Scot decision. He described the treatment ac- corded sailors as incuman. Alfred Fubrman was the last speaker. He was a sailor and studied law at sea. Ho knew the wrongs of the sailor. He did not hesitate to speak his mind freely At a mass-meeting held last evening at | 8bout the Supreme Court that had made Metropolitan Temple, strong resolutions were passed condemning the substitutes of Senator Frye to the bilis recently passed by the House of Representatives for the relief of eailors, and incidentally the Sareme Court aecision in the matter of the barkentine Arago was severely criticized. Tne House bill is intended to abolish imprisonment of sailors and flogging at sea, and Frye’s amendment inserts ‘‘with- out justifiable caus destroys the purposes of the bill. The which practically | fifth, what he termed one of the most out- raceous decisions in the history of courts. T.e following resolutious were passed with a cheer: WHEREAS, The seamen of our country have for years been engaged in a wortav effort to improve their condition and those of the en- tire maritime trade; and whereas, the evils sought 10 be remedied by the seamen are: First, involuntary servitude; second, the ad- vance system; third, brutality on the part of ships’ officers; fourth, for food; small and unhealthy forecas and whereas, these evils have been tles; Arago decision makes it a punishable of- | aTgely reifeved in the constwise trade by the fense for sailors to leave the service of a ship with which they have engoged, even though the ship be in a harbor. Metropolitan Temple was crowded. A band played inspiriting airs between the speeches. San Francisco Labor Council, presided On the stage were Mayor Phelan, H. E. Highton, J. H. Barry, Alired Furhman and others. Mr. Highton was the first speaker. He | made an eloguent uppeal in bebalf of the sailor “to whom,” he aid, “we owe our | pliedto the coastwise seamen; Maguire act of February, 1895, which the | seamen propose to have extended so as to ine clude the foreizn-going seamen in its benefits under the provisions of House bills 2663 and | 6399, which were passed by the House of | Representatives at the last session of Congress; E.

They tace natare in her wildest moods, daring dangers continually that lands- | men are seldom called upon to meet, traveling 1n all lands. Why should they not be the most intelligent, self-reliant and trustworthy of our citizens?” That they, of alt others, should be discriminated against and put on the level of siaves was infumous,” he said, *“Phe thought that an American sailor | should ever be called upon to carry in his mind the thought that at some time or some place his tack wss laid open by the almost to the point of revoiution,” be said. Speaking of the guestion under consid- eration he said: *‘As I understand it, Robert Roberts and three others shipped on the barkentine Arago for Valparaiso and other points to which the master might dispose. They | had had no alloument, as they call it—no advanced p “When they arrived at Astoria they un- deriook to leave the vessel, the conditions on board the vessel not beirg satisfactory. They took a small boat and went ashore and were promptly errested under the laws of this great country and through a Justice of the Peace, whose name will probably glitter in the annals of American jurisprudence forever, they were kept in jail sixteen days during the stop of the vessel in that American port. “They were then taken on board the vessel and expected to help sail it. I honor those men for, under those condi- tions, refusing to work. [Applause.] Re- member, these men had received not a dollar up to this time. The barkentine was compelled to come into this port. These sailors were taken ashore and placed in the Alameda County Jail. The have been there nine months, until re- | leased under a writ of babeas corpus. The lower court decided against them, and within the past few days the Supreme Court has affirmed the decision of that court. “Justice Herlan, in a very able opinion, | dissented. Now, we are Jiying under a system of law, and 1 am not bere to dis- | cuss tne judgment of the court. Itis the law and that is enough. ButIam here | such a judgment possible. This judg- ment is & sanction by the law of a species of kidnaping. We are here to express our desire that a bill which has aiready passed the House at Washington, and which is directed at the correction of this evil, shall become a law. *It is now undergoing a process of emasculation at the hands of Senator Frye of Maine in the upper honse. Sen- ator Frye represents the wishes of the ship-owners of Maine. I think he will learn before long that he is retting him- self into trouble.”” The speaker said that this country had fought out the question of slavery of the black man and had set him free. Thatwhite men should bs held in bondage in this same fair land wasa circumstance not to be longer tolerated. The chairman read the following tel grams from our Senators and Representu- tive Maguire at Washington: WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 2, 1897. E. Rosenberg, Sccretary, San Francisco: A satlor’s vocation is honorable and cails for brave and true men. Justice demands for them equal opporiunities, therefore I oppose any law which permits their imprisonment for violation of civil agreement, as that allows Jandsnarks to obtain their advanced wages GEORGE C.

STEPHEN M. WHITE. WASHINGTON, February Edward Rosenberq, Sccretary Labor Council, San Francisco: The voice of your meeting to- night will help us ebolish slavery of American satlors. JAMES G. MAGUIRE. The reading was roundly applauded. Mayor Phelan was introduced and warmly greeted. He said he was a lands- man and coula not speak as one familiar with the ways of those who sail the sea, but be came at the invitation of the secre- tary of the Labor Council as Mayor of the therefore be it Resolved, That we, the citizens of San Frane cisco, in mass-meeting - assembled, declare that the imprisonment of seamen for deser- tion (quitting work) is “involuatary servi- tude” and & violation of the thirteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States, and assuch it is repellant to our sense of American liberties, degrading to the sea- man snd dangerous to the safety of our iasti- tutions; and further Resolved. That we condemn the action of Senator Frye and the Committee on Commerce of the Uni ates Senate, and demand that House bil and 6399 be reported by that committee as pessed by the House of Repre- sel tives; and further Resolved, That we commend the action of our representatives in Congress, particularly Senators White and Perkins and the Hom. James G. Maguire, in their efforts to have justice done the seamen, and that we urge upon the Senate that it call for the House bills insid of the seamen and passupon them at the earliest possible moment; and further Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be forwarded to Senator Frye, the representatives of California in Congress, and that the press of San Francisco be requested to publish them in full T, PTTERSON MISSIG Despondent Over a Loss of Posi- tion and Physical Suf- {fering. Hs Was Untii Lately an Assistant Clerk of the Board of Supar- visors. Thne Morgue officials were notified yester- day by Attorney George F. Gordon that William T. Patterson, ex-assistant clerk of the Board of Supervisors, has been missing since Thursday last. It is believed that he has committed suicide through despondency. His position as assistant clerk to the board was lost some months ago and asa consequence the missing man has been in & very melancholy state of mind, owing to straitened circumstances. Coupled with this he hus suffered much lately from sciatic rheumatism. This affliction bas been a fruitful source of an- noyance to Patterson for a long time, and induced a lameness that made locomotion difficutt. Patterson is about 60 years of age. The only relative known is a Mrs. Barclay, a niece, who nursed him through a long spell’ of sickness when he was lodging with Justin Gates, a notary public living at 207 Larkin street. Patterson has of late been residing on Polk street. He is well known in local official circles as well as being a member of several fra- ternal organizations. Friends are now eagerly inquiring as to his whereabouts. The police have been notified of his disappearance.

It will be an innovation here, but for some time past it has been the correct thing in the East. In speaking of the matter vesterday. Mr. Ford said: “Yes, I hope to be able soon to say that the young gentiemen of our congregation have adopred the idea. 1 believe that to be thoroughly successful one shou!d be original. The young ladies in our church always dress in evening dress a¢ our socials, and the brizht, pretty colors do make the rooms so cheery. | You know that thers is a prevalent idea | that Caristians cannot dress as well as other people, and most geneatlly they do | not, but in our churches we have a mos: liberal congregation, which believes that | anything modern and up-to-date is sure | to_be wel! patronized. “Personally, 1 should prefer to wear| bright colors—red, I think. 1In preaching | 1he Gospel one should be bnght-appearing | in dress, for it is there that one should ba cheerful if any place, and plain black and white is 80 fanereal.

Extension to Mcj.ve Consilered to Connect With the Atlantic and Pacific. That business is getting brisker on the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley Railroad is indicated by the action of the board of directors, which met yesterday afternoon. So much tra from the Southerr, Pacific Raiiroad Com- pany that a considerable aadition to the necessary to bandle it. The directors yesterday decided to double the rolling freight. T.e board was in session about four hours, during which the entire situation with reference to the extension from Fresno (o Bakerstield and the building of the line from Bakersfield to Mojave, to connect with the Sunta Fe line, was under consideration. to say concerning the action of the board in relation to the Santa Fe connection, but that the board did discuss the matter to considerable extent was admitted. Thesale of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad has been postponed until about the middle of February. In the event of the absorption of the Atlantic and Pacific by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe system, which, it1s considered, will take place beyond the possibility of a doubt, the toard at its next meeting will con- sider the matter of the construction of the line from Bakersfield tn Mojave. This ex tension constructed—either by the Valley road or the Santa Fe, or jointly—will be the connecting link that wi.ll give Califor railroad. At the meeting yesterday the directors decid d to build 100 new boxcars to meet the demands of the freight-suippers. The company’s rolling stock has, since regular transportation was accepted, been kept with its journals warm, and the directors yesterday provided for the construction of 100 new boxcars and ordered fifty of them built at once. They will be buiitin San Francisco. This means an imme- diate expenditure of abou: $50,000. The roiling-stock capacity of the Valley road now comprises 100 boxcars and 250 flatcars. The fifty new cars ordered are of the combination pattern, suitale for the transportation of fruit, wheat or live- stock. Including the new oraer, the roll- ing stock of the road for the 125 miles from Stockion to Fresno comprises 200 boxcars and 250 flatcars. The running ot Sunday trains to Fresno and the gradual increase of passenger traflic it is considered may soon necessi- tate the ordering of additional passenger coaches. MASONIO UEMETERY.
