Foreman Keele’s Entry Book Found to Have Beea Mutilated. He Flippantly Attributes the Tamper- ing to “Carelessnoss, Frivolty or Humbug.” Recent proceedings in the Fair-Craven litigation have certainly been dry enough, due chiefly to the slow progress made by those who seek to prove that the Craven deeds are not genuine, but when the hot wave got in its work yesterday the tired feeling became epidemic. The elimina- tion of the usual morning ses«ion, in order to accommodate one of the jurors, short- ened the day somewhat, but even after that breathing spell the case dragged feebly at best. The attorneys for the executors of the restate progressed but a fraction of a siingy inch, and that was by passing from the weary discussion of notarial blanks to the quizzing of a lone witness rezarding the daily routine of his bumdrum life in 2 dingy printing office, Blanks were bad enough, but when this witness began to read off entry after entry contained in a series of thumbed order-books, covering a period of seversl years, those who were compelled to remain 1n ourt yawned and stretched and kicked themselves to keep awake, while everybody else cieared out. Once and oniy once did there develop premonitory symptoms of a general awakening. That was when D. M. Delmas, leading counsel for Mrs. Craven, called the | attention of Foreman Keefe of the Crocker printing establishment to a number of erasures and other evidences of tampering in one of those order-books. “*I can only attribute that to carelessness, frivolity or humbug,” replied Keefe upon being asked for an explanation. But Mr. Delmas wanted 10 know more about it than that, so Keefe went on to sav that somebody, “for want of something else todo,” must have been monkeying with the book. “Is this the way you have been in the habit of keeping your accounts?”’ asked the attorney sharply. Keefe saxd he did not attend to the ac- counts himself at all times. It must have “‘been the boy,”’ who had wanted for some- thing else 1o uo and satiated his desire by mutiiating the book. That was as far as the thing went. Mr. Delmas had made his point by casting a | biz black doubt on the reliability of those | records, and did not pursue Keefe further. Mrs. Craven was absent from court yes terday owing to continued illness, but the defense's table was brightened by the presence of Miss Margaret Craven and a lady friend. The examination of Keefe having been left unfinished when court ad journed last Friday, that individualresumed the stand when the proceedings began. Over two hours of Friday's session were wasted by the attorneys for the plaintiffs in an effort to prove by this witness what the custom was in the Crocker place as regards the printing of legal blanks. Mr. Delmas, for the defense, professed not to understand the motive for interjecting such evidence, and objected to it on general principles, with the result that, try as he would, Mr. McEnerney couid not get it in. Just before adjournment, however, Mr. McEnerney assured the other side that he merely wished to lay the foundation for other evidence by means of Keefe's testi- mony. and on that all objections were withdrawn. So it was, then, that when Keefe resumed the stand yesterday he began the narration of nothing more in- teresting than a seepy story about the process of turning out legal blanks. When an order comes from the blank depart- ment for the manufacture of these sheets, it is accompanied by a “copy” of the par- ticular one desired. Keefe receives these and turns them over to the compositors, proofs are taken, ana when everyihing is in apple-pie order the pressmen do the rest. It was in reference to the ramifica- tions of the ‘‘proofs.”’ however, that the attorneys wanted Keefe to be most e: pligit, for there is one of these things that figures as an exhibit of great impor- tance in this case. Keefe was at last excused, and ‘“‘the boy’’ who, for want of something else to do, got the foreman into that scrape about the records, was called and sworn. Dan Murphy, he said, was his name. Danis | just20. 'He has’ been with the Crocker Company four vears, and his job is to as- sist Keefe. Murphy remembered that not so very long ago he bunted up a package of legal-blank *‘proofs” that were printed in January, 1896, and turnea it over to his superiors. And that was as far as he got, for court now adjourned. Dan will tell the rest of hi- story to-d ; | THE GRAND CHIEF RANGER. Court Golden Gate No. 5 of the Forest- ors of America Honors the New Leader. Court Golden Gate No. 5, Foresters of Americs, tendered a banquet in Union- square Hall last night to J. S. W.

[From a photograph by Taber.] the manv cares and responsibilities that attach to the position he has held so long. For over twenty years he nas been the Guardian of this beautiful reservation, ex- cepting a short time he was one of the Yosemite Valley Commissioners, and Mr. Hutchings was the Guardian. Mr. Clark first went into the valley in 1856. He was lured there by the stories told of the unsurpassed beauty and grandeur of the scenery. Most of those stories were told by the Indians, for at that time but few white men had visited the place, and they were in search of gold rather than the beauties of nature. As the valley wasin the heart of the moun- tains and not uvon any regular traveled road, Mr. Clsrk did not remain the-e long, but he never went very far away. He set- tled down on the Wawona road, where he established a small wayside store and hotel where he served the then large trav- eling public. As the valley became better known pleasure-seekers and touris:s be- gan to visit it, and most of these stopped at Mr. Clark’s. . As stated, Mr. Clark bas been officially connected with the valley and commission for sbout twenty years. During this time and the years preceding, Mr. Clark has been acquainted with and the host of some of the most celebrated people in the world who have visited this coast, for few have departed without going to the Yosemite Valley. Thus by this time, Galen Clark, Eionler and Guardian of the valiey, is nown all over the world. His retirement is not solicited by the commission, for he is still physically and mentally vigorous. He is geiting old, he tells the Commissioners, Ang wants to live ) peace and without cares, among the natural beauties that first charmed his younger fancy. His wishes will be gratified, for the Uommis- sioners will permit him to live in the val- ley to the end of hisdays, if he so wills, and such is probably the ian Clark has repeatedly wants to live, die and be interred in what he believes to be the grandest scenery out of doors. To this end he has selected a neat little plat in the reservation ceme- tery where he wants his remains to be placed. Until he goes to his last rest the board will provide the old man with a neat cottage, where he may live in com- fort, for he is fairly well provided with means, baving always been economical and industrious, At the request of Governor Budd the regular meeting of the Commissioners was held Saturday instead of yesterday. Most ol‘:na proceedings were of a routine char- acter. Miles Wallace was elected vice-presi- dent in place of Henry K. Fiel d Abbott Kinney of Los Angeles was ap- pointed a commissioner. Charles 8, Given was made & member of the finance com- mittee. It was decided to expend whatever sum may be necessary to put in a new boiler, improve the kitchens and build dressing- rooms for ladies who go driving in the valley. Not Detained in Prison. Regarding his arrest on Friday on a charge of libel H. Windel, s merchant of this City, writes to explsin that he was not detained at the California-street Police station three min- utes, whereas it was stated that he was ar- rested in the early afternoon and released in the evening. Mr. Windel says he arrivedat the station about the same time as the war- rant, made s depontt ©of $500 and left imme- y. —_————— Of for Nashville. Chief Inspector Benjamin Harrison of the Chinese Buresu will accompany the Chiness who arrived on the China yesterday on their way to the Nasbville exposition. He expecis toreturn in twoor three weeks. During his absence Customs Inspector B. E. Meredith will periorm the duties of his office. Dog shows in San Francisco have been generally well-patronized, particularly by local dog fanciers. Butitis said by the managers of the San Francisco Kennel Club that the coming show will attract attention from the surrounding country aswell as from this City, because entries have been received from all parts of the State. Quite 8 number of names of diminutive dogs of all colors and pedigrees imagin: ble figure on the entry list. There are the little” *‘toy” dogs, and then there are noble St. Bernards with majestic looking heads and intelligent eyes which will cause no end of comment, as competition among them wiil be very keen. The setters and pointers will be many, and among the former class there will be very close competition, as the lovers of the sporting dogs have been importing new stock and infusing new blood into this State within the past yeur from the lead- ine kennels of the East. The fox terriers will be strongly repre- sented this year, and it goes without say- ing that particular interest will be mani- fested by the breedersin the judging of this class of dogs. Mason surprised the talent at the last bench show held in this City by his sys- tem of judging, which some local experts said was foreign, in many respects, to what tue local breeders of fox terriers ex- pected. But then every judge his his own views on form and construction. conse- quently the breeders of fox terriers may expect to hear of many changes in Mason’s system of judging at the inau- gural bench show of the San Francisco Kennel Club. Entries for the coming bench show of the San Francisco Kenuel Club closed last night. The entries this year surpass any- thing ever before known on the coast. The total number of dogs forthcoming wsxéx reach—when the mail is in—about 680. Major J. M. Taylor will judge Great Danes, greyhounds, foxhounds, deer- hounds, ~bloodhounds, Russian wolf- hounds, pointers, all sefters, Chesapeake bull terriers, Newfoundlands, dachshun and fox terriers. E. M. Oldham will judge St. Bernards, mastiffs, collies, cocker spaniels, field spaniels, Clumber spaniels, bulldogs, pugs and Yorkshire terriers. J. Otis Feilows will judge the other classes. Greyhounds wiil be on the bench this year to the number of forty. English setters will show up in numbers above fifty. St. Bernards will be represented, as usual, to a total of about fifty-five. ‘Among the notable entries in the grey- hound class will be the nominations of J. J. Edmunds and Bartels & Rosseter. English setters and St. Bernards are represented from all quarters. At least half of the representation in both classes will be new to the bench. Cuban League Picnic. The Cuban League of San Francisco, co-oper- ating with other leagues in this country, hay- ing the same object in view, have arranged for & grand picnic, to be held at Wildwood Glen Park, Ssusalito, on May S0. The pro- ceeds aro 16 be pluced in the hands of proper persons to purchiase food, clothing, ete., for Cu- bansufferers. The executive commitiee asks the people of the City to purchase tickets to | this picnic and if they cannot attend them- se.ves, zive them to those unable to buy them, thus contributing to the enjoyment of the poor at home as well as aiding in the noble work. e Up for Murder, Richard Bell, alias Dick Miller, an Indian attached to the Round Valley Indian Reser- vation, in Mendocino County, was brought into United States Judge Morrow’s court yes- terday to bo idenufied.

Pauisell, charged with robbing a faro bank, appeared before Judge Carroll Cook vesterdsy morning, At the first trial the jury disagreed. The second trial resuited in & conviction, which was set aside by the Supreme Court and a new trial ordered. It is evident that a strong effort is to be Resolutions Directed Against the Out- ) madoe this time to secure the acquittal of lying C:meteries as Barriers to Grow'h. At an enthusiastic meeting of citizens of the Western Addition held in Fraoklin Hall, Fillmore street, last evening, a club was formed for the purpose of promoting the material interests of that section of the City. Permanent organization was effected and the following officers were elected: ‘W. H. Hagell, president; Dr. C. V. Cross, vice-president; J. Henderson, secretary. After an animated discussion of the many needs of the locality, the following reso- lutions were unanimonsly adopied : WHEREAS, The Western Addition Develop ment Club has been organized {or the purpose of uniting the citizens and property-owners in this portion of the City in an_effort to pro- mote its advancement and prosperity; and whereas, the several cemeteries herein lo- catea constitute an aimost absolute barrier to the growth of the City westward, and area constant mensce to the health of our citizens ; therefore Resolved, That, among other objects.we have in view, we will use ail honorable m toward the abatement of this evil. Resolved, That we heartily indorse the senti- ment exprosed by his Honor, Mayor Phelan, in his inausural address to the Board of Super- | visors, touching the matter of ity growth and improvement, ana realize, with him, the fact that the cemeteries located 1n the Western Addition constitute an obstruction to the growth of the City grester than all others combined. Resolved, That the Mayor is to be com- mended for his efforts to avate this evil. to create public sentiment favoring the same, and fu calling ih= attention of the Boara of Supervisors and the Board of Health tnereto. We belleve that he shouid be sustained in his 1audable efforts, therefore Resolved, That we will give to him and to sll others who join with him in his efforts our moral suprort and influence on all occasions, and will do all in our power to bring about the clostug, within a reasoneble length of time, of ihe cemeteries which now obstruct the prog- Tess aud development ot rtion of the City in which we are £o greatly interested. We believe that the Board of Health now has the autnority and pover o enact such sani- tary laws as will cause burials in the City cem- etertes to cease. Therefore, Resolved, That the power of said poard be earnestly invoked in the premises, to_the end that further burials therein be prohibited by Iaw, such law to be so framed as fo_take effect at the earliest possible date consistent with Teason, as todueand proper notice to those most interested in the matter. An_exeacutive committee of fifteen was appointed and also a committee of three, consusting of Dr. Cross, Mr. Lake and Mr. Macbeth to present the above resolutions to the Mayor and the Board of Health, Paufsell. He has employed as counsel for his defense Attorneys E. J. Emmons, Alyin Fay and Frank Freeman. Against tbis array of tulent stands Deputy Dis- trict Attorney Hosmer, representing the prosecution. ‘When the case was called Mr. Emmons moved to discharge the entire panel of tue jury on the ground tnat the Sheriff ana deputies were prejudiced against the de- fendant.
