14 THE 'SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, APRIL 16, 1897. GLEAVES WILL BE SURVEYOR-GENERAL Major McLaughlin Says No Change Will Be Made in the Attorneyship. Cbairman Hanna Telegraphs That Candidates Must Get Home Indorsement. Other Positions and the Reward of Colonel Irish—Mr. McLaughlin Not a Candidate for Any Office. Major McLaughlin, chairman of the Re- publican State Central Committee, whose interview regardinz someof the appoint- ments to be made by President McKinley appeared a day or two ago in THE CALL, has some interesting details not hitherto publisned. They will be read with ap- preciation by many thousands in Califor- nia, and especially by those who want to see Republican principles triumph. The major was, in all, about two months in wasbington. He first attended to ap- pointive offices of which he has not hith- erto spoken. these. Allusion was first make to the apprais- ership and to the efforts of Frank E. Senator J. M, Gleaves. Webb, David 8mith and Jacob Shaen to get the office. I really don’t know, likely to get this office. These are some of the names, but there are enough more to make the number legion. There is no limit to the applicants. The place is under advisement. 1can make no fore- he said, “who is cast. ““As to the postmastership the same situation practically exis Nopody knows who will get if, bur it will be like the other place, and all places for that matter. Whoever gets it must bave the backing of the California delegation, and the indorsement of the Senate. The lat- ter is imperative. The California delega- tion, powerful as its indorsement is, and important as it is, is_yet not equal to the Eenate. The President makes tne ap- pointments and the Senate confirms. Ii isn’t the House. The House has nothing to do with it. ¢hip, apply to all appointive offices. “In regara to Naval Offices position to reward the gold Democrats | who helped elect the Republican ticket. Colonet Irish did excellent service, and ho will undoubtedly be allowed to serve his term out, and even then no one may be | appointed to take his place. 1 was sur- prised at the great number of friends that Colonel 1Irish had. They were good people, Republicans as wall as Demo- crats, and they kept cropping up every- where. He has got very strong friends. *‘About the surveyor-generalship there lots of applicants, but the man who is slated to get it 1s Senator J. M. Gleaves of Redding. I wish to state here that the patronage is ubsolutely in the hands of the delegation, and without 1ts indorse- ment no _applicant stands any show. Benator Gleaves evidently bas the lead for this office. “Now, regarding the Register of the Land Office, Receiver and Commissioner of Immigration, I know nothing. An enormous number of leiters have been wriiten by different people wanting these and other places 10 Senators and others over the country and Mr. Hanna, asking their aid. These letters are immediately turned over to the California delegation. They refuse absolutely to have anything to do with such claims for office, and nave been turning tue letters over to their own people. 1saw many of these letters when I wus there. It would astonish vou if you knew who many of the writers were. ‘*Anent this some of those who sent let- ters to Senator Hanna and others have ex- plained that they did so at the solicitation of these public men, but this 1s incorrect, and only a way of beating around the fact, I heard about this and wired Senator Hanna, asking him aboat it. I have re- ceived his reply and the substance of it 1s that candidates for office must make their applications through the State Central Committee and be recommended by the Congressional delegation, and that he has in no way advised or made suggestions to any candidates, despite any statements to the contrary. This was, as I haye said, in reply to a telegram of inquiry of mine, “The United States auorneyship for the Northern District will not be settlea for two years. No chanxe will be made bafore that time. AboutJudge Waymire, he was out for a Cabinet position at first, and now is undoubtedly in the field for the United States judgeship. A preat deal will depend as to this place on what McKenna says. The President will listen to him, and that will decide it. McKenna has great influence with the President, as I stated 1mmediateiy on my return from Washington. As to Frank L. Coombs, I have not heard that he wanted anything since the Japan Ministry matter was se tled. That was fixed for Mr. Buck in ad- vance at St. Louis.” The mejor was asked regarding the as- sertion of young Georg- Morse, nephew by marriage of Mr. McKinley, that Way- mire was sure to be provided for 1n some way. Hesaid he did not think Mr. Morse knew much aboutit. Major McLaughlin also emphasiz-d the fact that candidates must have the indorsement of the Cali- fornia delegation and the Senate. It was useless to go writing letters to Senators or politicians elsewhere, because these letters were almost immediately turned over to the delegation. Major McLaughlin alluded to the tire- less effort of many people to get office, and said he could notunderstana it. The places were not wor:h the struggle that was being put forth, *‘That leads me toallude to snother matter,’” said he, “‘that I thought was settled long ago, but it appears not, for 1 am bearing about it again, and that is that I might be a candidate for some place and accept it. I want to say, as em- ~baticaily as I can, that 1 am not a candi- There are seven or eight of | These remarks, though | given in connection with the postmaster- | the place | now held by Colonel Irish, there is s dis- | | date for any position whatever and could not, ‘under any circumstances, De pre- vailed on to take any kind of a political place.” Judge Burke and Mr. Jarboe were pres- ent, and the former lightly twitted the major regarding the governorship two years hence. 4 “I want to say positively regarding that,” said he, “or any other place that could be mentioned, that I neither want any nor would I accept such place. I would not take any position, State or National, if it was brought to me, to use a hackneyed expression, on a silver plate. time understood.” | Y. M. C. A, REOPENING. 1 An Interesting Programme, Councluding With a Spirited Game of Basket-Ball. Last night was a gala night at the Y. M. C. A. building. The occasion was 'he reopening of the many departments be- longing to the association. The exercises were given under the auspices of the Young Men’s Improvement Committee. Thue first part of the programme took | place in the cheerful little auditorium. | The Knickerbocker Quariet sang some pretty selections, Miss Chase recited, Miss Roberts sang and the Columbian orchestra rendered several selections. The game of basket-ball between the “‘business men’s team” ol the San Fran- cisco association and the ‘‘Athens team’’ of the Oakland association was, how- ever, the event of the evening. The score at the close of the game stood 11 to 2 in favor of the local ream. Some very brilliant work was done by F. M. Go>drich, who made seven of the eleven points made by the San Franciscos. C. Bernhard, the right center, made the other four. C. J. Anger’s team work was excellent. The Oakland team was evidently not in good form, for it failed to put up its usual | good game and in the second haif went ail 10 pieces, F. J. Bolls scored the first point for the Oaklands, and some of the best work for that team was done by J. Lan- | caster. At the conclusion of the pro- gramme the teams were given a banquet. DECENED AND DESEATED A Woman Who Trusted Her New Husband With Her Money Mourns Both. | She Now Thinks That the Ceremony f That United Them Was Merely ; a Sham. | Detectives are Jooking for a young man | who registered a few days ago at the | Windsor Hotel, on Market street, as H. Sears. The wife whom he left there is very anxious to discover his whereabouts, and itis she who has set the officers at work. She claims to have been deceived, robbed and deserted, and she is uncertain whether the ceremony performed in Los Angeles just previous to their coming here was a | genuine marriage or not. Sears is a young man, about 35, weigh- | ing about 135 pounds and is a Jew. He is said to be a newspaper man, and he was formerly emploved as a reporter in this City; later he was part proprietor or edi- torota paper at Vacaville. It issaid by some who claim to know him that his name is Searles. The woman in the case is considerably older than her alieged husband, being at least 40 years of age. She is'of Swedish birth and is not only taller but much stouter than heis. She had saved $900, which she placed in a Los Angeles savings bank. She says that Sears became ascquainted with this fact and made desperaie love to her; that he 10ld ner, as they walked in the park at Los Angeles, that he had a nice bome in San Francisco to which. if she would marry uim, he would take her. | She consented; a man in a black coat was brought in and & marriage ceremony | zone through with, by which she believed she was married.

But she had none. She thereupon sought advice and informed the Police Department, and an effort is being made 10 discover Sears’ whereabouts. e THERESA TARPEY'S DEATH. Testimony of the Girl's Mother That Nicholas Erenuan Was Responsible. The case of Nicholas Brennan, charged with obtaining $5 from Miss Theresa Tar- pey by extortion, is on trial in Judge Waliace’s court. During yesterday’s proceedings the tes- timony of Miss Tarpey, taken at the pre- liminary hearing in the Police Court, was read. Miss Tarpey is dead, and for this reason the court allowed her former tes- timony to be read. In her statement she avers that she gave him the money be- cause she was afraid of him; that he first criminally assaulted her. and afterward forced her into & disreputable house, and that he compelled 1.er to give him the pro- ceeds of her shame. A staiement signed and sworn to before a notary by the girl ten days before her death was produced, and Judge Wallace admitted it in evidence, in which she said that she withdrew all charges against Brennan. Subsequently the girl gave her testimony before Judge Conlan, who went to her residence to hold court. and in that tes- timony she declared her former statement to be untrue. She explained that she signed it to please Brennan’s mother. Several witnesses were introduced to prove the former good chmiacter of the accused. prisoner, and Mrs. Heien L. Freese, bis sis- ter, testified that Miss Tarpey 1, them she wanted to make & <worn statement exonerating Nicholas Brennan because she did not want to die with a lie on her lips; that she Joved Nicholus, and that if he had been: bad she had been much worse; that whatever she had done was of her own free will. Mrs. Anna Tarpey swore that her daugh- ter's death was the result of Brennan's crnelty. Dr. T. L. Mahoney tesufied that the gir] died of consumption. Further testimony will be heard in this case to-day. —————— Actions for Divorce, Divorce suits have been filed in the Superior Court as follows: John O'Connor against Mag- gle 0'Connor, for intemperance; Florence M.

Captain McLeod Is Still of the Opinion That He Saw Her Aprii 2 At That Time She Was 180 Mi'es Off the Mouth of the Columbia River. The fate of the American ship Samaria is still in doubt, and the revenue cutter Rush went out yesterday afternoon to solve the problem. On March 26 Captain Peterson of the | Sailor Boy saw the vessel in latitude 46 norib, longitude 127 west. At that time she bad her main 1opgallant and fore up- per and lower topsails set. After that an exceedingly heavy gale came up and { | | near Ellis street and were badiy bruised and shaken up. They were taken to the Receiving Hospital. FATALLY INJURED. George Willlams, u Teamster, the Vic- tim of a Ranaway Team. George Williams, & teamster in_the empioy- ment of Austin & Co., draymen, Davis street, met with a serious accident yesterday after- noon. His team ran away at Broadway and Steiner street, and he was thrown from the agon. He was tuken to the Receiving Hos- pital, where Dr. Thompson found that both legs were broken and he was injured inter- na Williams died about 8 o’clock last night and his body was taken 1o the Morgue, Wherean inquest wili be held. It appears that he was driving down the steep hill on Steiner street, between Broadway and Vallejo, when the pole of his wagon broke and his horses poited. When Willlams was thrown the wheels passed over his legs crush- ing them y as the wagon was heavily loaded. He was conscious to the last. — TWO BOY BURGLARS. Curran and John Hennessey Placed Under Arrest. John Curran and John Hennessey, each 17 yeers of age, were booked at the City Prison last night by Policemen Ryan snd 0'Dea on the charge of burglary. They are accused of breaking into the house of E. H. Crocker, carpenter, 662 John | Minna street, on the afternoon of Aprit 1. They forced off the locks of four tool- chests and stole a quantity of touls, cloth- iug and jeweiry. A lady next “door observed them and sent word to Crooker at_his_shop on Mis- sion street. Crooker ran to his house, and was just in time to see the boys scaniper- ing off. The tools bave been recovered, but no trace can be found of the jewelry or cloth- heavy cross seas almost swamped the | ing. The United States Revenue-Cutter Rush Leaving Port to Search for the Missing Coal Ship Samaria, Now Overdue From Tacoma. schooner. The Samaria was not seen again by the schooner. The schooner Alcalde, Captain Weit- kanat, also lost sight of the ship in the some storm. On April 2, however, Captain McLeod of the Rufus E. Wood is almost certain that | he saw her in & disabled condition. In TuE CALL of Wednesday last he is quoted as saying: Exactly twelve days ago this morning I was 180 miles off thé mouth of the Columbia River. [The Ruius E. Wood reached this port on the 10th inst.] Hull down, behina usl could see a ship without a stitch of canvas on her main, and only the light sails on her fore and mizzen. She was heading for the river, awd I came to the conclusion that the main- mast was sprung and that the capiain was afraid of carrying sail even in the light breeze for fear of doing more damage. aiternoon the ship put about aud 100k up the same course I was steering. The Wood bad every stitch of canvas set, and it was not long before the other vessel was out of sight. From that time to port we had light winds and calms, and the same kind of weather has pre- vailed ever since. While I am not sure that it ‘was the Samaria I sighted, port in & disabled condition. It is evident that the Federal authorities are acting on the report of Captain Mec- Leod in the sending out of the Rush. The work of coaling tue revenue cutter was done quicky yesterdav, and by 4 P. M. she was backing out from Folsom-street wharf, and an bhour later had passed through the Golden Gate and was fairly on her search. Deputy Collector of the Port E. B. Jerome was asked yesierday how long the cutter would remain out. isdnswer was that Caotain Rob rts had peen given in- structions to search the coast thoroughly, and also to go over the course usually fol- lowed by sailing vesseis on_the way here from Puget Sound. According to him the Rush will be awav about three Weeks. As before stated in THE CALL, the opin- ion among seafaring men 1s still di Some of the most experienced skippers on the coast think the Samaria will come in, and point to her long voyage from Hongkong in support of their contention. Others, equally as skillful navigators, point to the unusually heavy gales en- countered and shake their heads omi- nously. Captain McLeod still sticks to his opin- ion that the Bamaria is afloat and will rRilhu sail in or be towed to port by the ush. COURTROOM OHANGES. Roofmakers Interrupt Proceedings of Superior Judges at the City Hall, Next Monday morning Judge Wailace’s Department of the Superior Court will be moved to the rooms formerly occupied by the Supreme Court at the northwest cor- ner of Larkin and McAllister streets. This move has been made necessary on account of the noise created over Judge Wallace’s courtroom by putting on a new roof. Judge Slack has also been driven from his courtroom in the southwestern part of the Larkin-streec wing of the City Hall by the noise of the carpenters, and fora month will hola the sessions of his court in the assembly chamber of the Board of Supervisors. This will be an accommoda- tion to those citizens who desire to wit- ness the proceedings in the suit of Angus and others representing the estate of James G. Fair against Mrs. Nettie R. The apartments now used by Juage Slack are commodious and pleas- unt. In addition to large space on the main floor there is a well-arranged gal- lery. The jurybox will be placed on the south side of the room, and the witness- stard will be just to the left of Judge Slack as he sits in the chair occupted by Mayor Phelan when the Board of Super- visors are in session.

California’s contingent to the great Turners' tournament to be held in St Louis next month is doing gond and faith- ful work, getting into first class condition for the contests in which they are to par- ticipate. The team that will go from this City will consist of eight members ot the San Fran- cisco Turn Verein, and will be in charge of R, Barth, the instructor of the society. Its membersare: .

Then Warrants for the Balance Due Since Nov:mber Will Also Be Forthcoming It seems that of late some little alarm has been marifest in school circles through a rumor that the Board of School ! Directors had found it necessury to with- | hold teachers’ salaries for the moath of May. 2 A communication addressed to the editor of Tue CALL was received yester- day, in which the writer stated that she understood this to be the case, and as- serted, furthermore, that on top of the withholding of warrants for haif the No- vember salary, such action was an out- rage avd deserved the condemnation of | the press and the public generaily. Inquiry has elicited the information from a reliable source that there is no | ground whatever for any anxiety on the | vart of teachers. Warrants for the pay- ment of the May salaries will be forth- | coming on June 5, but, owing to a peculiar | condition of affairs, the nayment of June salaries must unavoiaably be postponed until the last week in July, at which time the remaiuder of the November salaries will also be paid. | In explanation of this siate ot affairs | School Director Samuel Waller said last evening: | “In the month of November the old board deducted halt the teachers’ salaries, amounting to $37,000. They spent this, and together with other exvenditures it made a total deficit of $91,000 on January 1, when we took our seats. *'In the last tax levy an error was made by the Board of Supervisors in fixing the NEW 70-DAY—DRY GOODS. 1 i ‘ } L | Murphy Building, N.urphy Euilding, Market and Jomes Streets.

The teackers are sure of their salaries, and will have to wait only two or thres weeks.” WOMEN ‘MISSIONARIES. Twenty-Second Annual Meeting of the Baptist Society.
