4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, MAY 13, 1897. CONDUCTORS' CLUB OPENS QUARTERS Ticket-Takers Having a Royal Time at Los Angeles. May Be Discord as to Taking in Non-Union Santa Fe Employes. Getting Down to Business—Some Constitutional Amendments.| Ladles’ Auxliliary. LOS ANGELES, CAL, May 12.—One continuous round of pleasure is the lot of railroad conductors and their companions, who seem to have taken possesion of the city. From early morning to late at night the visitors are on the go taking in the sights of the city and environs. Large parties also ascend the mountains or go down to the beach. Even the delegates to the International Convention of the Order of Rallroad Con- ductors did not do much business to-da though closeted in secret during the after- noon. There was less than a full at- tendance. The meeting of the Grand Di- vision opened at 1 ». a. in Music Hall with Grand Chief Conduct rk presiding. No details of the proceedings are given out, but it is asserted that listle of impor- tance was done beyond assigning to the various committees the work they have to do. These committees are: Judiciary—George Miles, W. H. Budd, J. L. Kissick, I Reynolds and F. A. Tompkins. Grand offi —J. D. Condit, Tim F W. F. Knight, W. H. Scholes and F. E. Tewksbury. Grievances and appeals—W. Kilpatrick, . 8. McBee, O. J. Freeman, J. M. Van- slyke and W. W. Stockwell. Division reports—G. E. Vance, J. C. Sheldon, John McKay, George McGilveny and George Lumpkin. Some discussion was had over a number of proposed amendments to the constitu- tion before their reference to the commit- tee. The discussion of these amendments developed the first indication of the slightest discord in the order, some dele- gales demanding a radical change in the sections pertaining to the character of grievances that can be made a basis for a strike. Some action is also likely to be taken that will put the conductors more in line with the Brotberhood of Locomotive Engineers. One subject that threatened atone time to cause some hard feelings pertains directly to the relation the order holds to other labor organizations and the federation. In the opinion of some of the most radical delegates the order has been 100 lax in discriminating against orders opposed to corporations and individual employers who ars known to be antago- nistic 1o ized labor. One subj that will not be disposed of in entire harmony is a local one, and a matter growing out of the last big strike in Californ At that time when the con- ductors on the Santa Fe lines in Southern California went out with the strikers their piaces were filled by non-union men, some of whom had been conductors some- where at some time and others had held other positions in the railroad service. When the strike was settled General Manager K. H. Wade, since deceased, de- clined to disc union con- ductors, rm stand in their de- fense bridged over the difficulty. Since that time the sears of battle have so worn away that some of the non-union con- ductors now desire to become affiliated with the order, and it is understood some such applications are on file with the proper officers of the Grand Division. These are but a few of the points that will engage the attention of the convention during the remainder of the week. The ladies’ auxiliary had another busi- ness meeting this aiternoon, when com- mittees were appointed, reports read and twenty-four new members admitted. This is a secret organization also, and informa- tion about it is withheld, but the ladies do not strike or threaten to strike. The cts of the auxiliary were set forth by Mrs. J. H. Moore, the grand president, in a brief address at the reception. She said, ng in a general way to the or- eous ideas concerning the ¢ have gained some headway, and I wish 10 say that it is the belief of all that membership in our organization is an honor of highest character. It develops strength, judzmens, self-reliance and char- . It stimulates friendship and love ter, after speaking of the responsibil- nd'importance which attached to the of the railway conduclor, Mrs. Moore sai All of them hold positions of honor and trust, but the influence of their wives is greater than any other power that exists. The man who hasa wife at home has an influence for better things forever with him. The responsi- bility of afamily urges him to greater achievements. 7The responsibility makes him a hero. Home influence is the htiest influence of all.’” The principal outdoor event in the pro- gramme to-duy was the Wild West show given in honor of the visitors at the Fiesta Park, this aiternoon ana this evening, be- ginning with displays of horsemanship and vaquero practice and ending, at alate hour, with fireworks. The afternoon show was not well attended, the strangers seem- ingly preferring to ses the more natural sights of scenery, flowers and orange trees. The neadquarters of the Railway Con- ductors’ Club of North America has been established at the Westminster, room 205, Conductor Weisz, managing covernor, is in charge, and there are with him several other govarnors of the club. The club has an elegant clubhouse in New York, and their dinners have become events, which are most successful in the way of accom- plishing the end for which the club was estzblished. The objects of the club are: To bring the conductors of North America together on a social basis for the discus- sion of subjects of vital importance to conductors and railway interests in gen- eral, and for the commercial welfare of this and adjoining countries; to pro- mote arbitration- and to relegate to oblivion that element which by its acts of violence has shown Itself un- worthy of the confidence and support of the public; to educate the conductor to the requirements of the various business interests by inviting men of effairs to sub- mit to the club such information as they would deem beneficial in the conducting of passenger and freight servics as viewed from interests they represent; to bring to- gether the employerand empioye, so that they may better understand each other, with the uitimate object that railroad traf- fic may continue prosperously and thus advance the interests of all classes of busi- ness. ‘There is much good feeling exhibited in the crowds at the hotels and on the streets. J. Clark Sheldon, known among his friends as the ‘‘punch fiend,"” is among the conductors now in the city. Mr. Shel- don, who is from Weehawken, N. J., and a conductor on the West SBhore Railroad, has with him & book which he values very highly. It contains the punch marks and signatures of 53 conductors, and is probably the most complete collection of The kind in existence, He began the work in 1887, since which time ho hias never al- lowed a conductor with his punch to pass him without first getting his signature. To-morrow the visitors will go by spe- cial train to Pasadena and elsewhere, in- cluding the ostrich farm. ———— MILITIAmMEN PUT 20 FLI1GHT. Conductors See @ Demonstration Not on the Programme. L0S ANGELES,CAL, May 12.—At the Wild West show to-night the crowd of conductors was treated to one feature not on the programme. A squad of filteen members of the National Guard, carrying gunsand fixed bayonets, demanded ad- mission to the grounds, claiming to be in search of deserters. Their free entrance was opposed Ly the doortenders, but the militiamen crowded in and would have bad everything their own way but for the special police. who, with drawn clubs, finally put to flignt the bold soldier boys with their bayonets. Fora time a small riot was imminent. THE ARIZONA MAN-HUNT. Outlaw Parker Eludes Posses Sent From Prescott and Phaenix to Capture Him. PRESCOTT, Ariz, May 12.—It is now apparent that Parker, the escaped jrain robber, eiuded the posses sent after him from Prescott and Pheenix by swinging toward the north, into the upper Verde Valley instead of into Tonto Basin, where he has many Iriends and where he wasa participant in the bioody Pleasant Valley war. Assisiant General Manager R. E. Wells of the Santa Fe, Prescott and Pheenix Railway is taking the keenest interest in the chase and has placed several special trains at the disposal of the pursuers. Late last night, on application of Sheriff Ruifner, & special train wassent to Ashfork to take to Jerome Junction the three Hualpai Indian scouts who trailed Parker down after the Rock Cut train robbery. At midnight last night the following information was received from Sheriff Ruffner: | Iran Parkerout of Lynx Creek Mountains about 10 o'clock yesierday morning; trailed him to the Black Hills and stayed in the hills last night. Think Parker saw us yvesterday evening just before dusk. Tracked him about for y-five miles to-day. He could not have been more than three hours ahead of us at any time. ) His horse is evidently very ured and ither he nor his horse has had anything to t for over fifty hours. Think we have & sure thingin the morning. PHENIX, Ariz., May 12.—Governor Frankiin_to-day issued a proclamation offering $500 reward for the apprehension of Parker, the murderer of Lee Norris at Prescot 500 for Miller, his confederate, and $250 for Cornelia, the Mexic who escaped with the others. Parkeris sup- osed to be in the Black Hills, near the Verde River, about twenty-five miles north of Prescott; Miller to be hiding in the Bradshaw Mountains, unable to move on account of bis wound, and Corneiia to have sought refuge with the Mexican placer miners in Santa Domingo Gulch, near Wickenburg. Sheriff Orme will start a posse from Wickenburg to-morrow morning to hunt the Mexicen down. He has also set & watch on all the trails leading out of the mountains southward. Parker now has $6000 reward on his head, the payment of most of it depending on his conviction for participation in the Rock Cut train robbery, in which his confederate was killed.

It has been chiarged that Superintendenc Bartlett is unusually harsh to the inmates. The mattsr was referred to a special committee that will present its report to-day. During the afternoon the reports of a number of committees were presented and ordered printed. A great portion of the afternoon session was taken up in the exempiification of the secrel work. During the noon recess there was served upin the banquet hall by Oriental Re- bekah Lodge a splendid lunch to the rep- ressntatives of the Grand Lodge.

The Denunciation of It by the Supreme Court Is Quoted. Pho'ography and the Magnifying of Handwriting Was Another Theme for Discussion. Expert testimony on handwriting re- ceived a trouncing on general prin- ciples yesterday in the Fair-Craven trial. D. M. Delmas, leading coun- sel for the defense, led . the charge, and while it was in its nature pre- liminary, still it was an indication that the experts who, it is alleged, will testify that the signature of James G. Fair to Mrs. Nettie Craven’s deeds is spurious are not destined to tread a path strewa with roses in this particular case. The debate during which the scoring of this class of evidence was administered took place during the afternoon, when John P. Donovan took the witness-stand. This gentleman earns has livelihood by enlarging pictures and following the busi- ness of general photography. He said in answer to Attorney Mitchell that he had been engaged by the Fair estate to reproduce on a magnified scale a number of the late millionaire’s signa tures, He had the original negatives in court with him, and when told todo so produced them and identified them. Some of Attorney R. B. Mitchell’s help now came trooping into the courtroom bearing a varied assortment of bundles. These were the enlarged photographs of Fair's bank-check signature, and there was a great pile of them. Mr. Donovan iden- tified these as specimens of his handi- work, and then Mr. Mitchell offered them in evidence ‘‘for the purpose of future comparisons of the genuine and disputed signatures of the late James G. Fair.”’ Mr. Delmas objected to them, and in telling why be did so claimed that the copies were inadmissible under the law and objectionable on general principles. He read from a decision of Judge Camp- bell of the Michigan Supreme Court, in which that eminent jurist deals severely with photographic copies in tests of ai- Jeged forgery on account of their unrelia- bility, and in which be also decries the idea of taking too much stock in evidence given by bandwriting experts. “The lat- ter gentry,” wrote Judge Campbell, ‘‘are very often found to be mere pretenders to knowledge, and their testimony is in the nature of an evil.” Mr. Delmas argued that the Campbell decision was sound law, and law that ought to prevail in this Under the California Code, be sai copies of documents were not competent evidence to go to the jury when the origi- nals were obtainable. Ho said he would not object to allowing the jury to exam- 1ne originals. Mr. Mitchell combated the position of the defense by reading a lot of authorities tending to show that photographs of wills and documents were allowable for pur- | poses of identification and comparison. Among his supporting references was United States Circuit Judge Deady’'s de- cision in the celebrated Sharon case. In that decision the opinion was given that enlarged copies of documents were useful in_cases of disputed handwriting. Mr. Delmas in reply citea the recent decision of the California Supreme Court in the case of the People vs. Buckley. In that case, he said, the highest State tribunal reversed a conviction for forgery just because that conviciion had been secured by means of expert testimony on bandwriting. The court denounced this kind of evidence as dangerousand un- reliable. The experts testify whichever way they are paid to testily, and it was a pernicious custom that the courts had permitted to develop in allowing much of this kind of evidence and one that it wou'd be found difficult to eradicate. Mr. Delmas laid particular stress upon the concinding declaration of the court, to the effect that conviction and impris- onment, founded altogether upon the testimony of experts on bandwriting, was “an outrage upon justice.” The attorney said that if enlarged photograbhs and expert testimony on handwriting were tolerated the trial would start off with one of the lowest and most despicable | classes of evidence known to the legal fraternity. If the jury was to make com- parisons of signatures, genuine and dis- puted, the originals alone could be prop- erly used. The argument was carried on by both sides until quite late, and when a ruling was finally due Judge Slack said he would admit the photographiccopies, but merely for the purpose of ‘“iliustration and con- yenience.” Mr. Delmas remarked that if illustra- tion and convenience would be the limit of the evidence's potency he would not object to it at all. But he gave warning that any attempt to nuse the enlargements for any other purpose would be vigorously opposed by the defense. xpert Theodors Kytka occupled the witness-stand during the forenoon session, testifying that he took a number of photo- graphs of samples of Senator Fair's hand- writing and other chirographical exhibits to be used in the trial. He had brought the regatives of these, some sixty in all, with him, and after appropriate indentifi- cation they were put in evidence as the vlaintiff’s exhibits. TUnder cross-exami- nation Kytka admitted that he was un- der salary to the Fair estate. There was some_ clever fencing in the afternoon when Mr. Mitchell recalied Charles 8. Neal, the former secretary of Benator Fair, to the stand and asked him to identify the handwriting of the mil- lionaire in a letter alleged to have been written by the deceased. All of the samples so far introduced have carried with them an- explanation that they were merely to be used ‘for comparison.” They will naturally be handled and read by the jury. Now it bappened that this new sample which Mr. Mitcbell wae soanxious to put into the evidence had another vir- tue, as it were, besides that of being a sample of Fair's writing. IUs wording was such that, if read by the jury, it might tend to prejudice that bedy, for it was a treatise on rich men's wiils. The defense was awake, however, and opposed theintroduction of the document. And it was not until ziter a spell of de- bate and aftera promise had been exacted from Milcke!l to the effect that he would resort to no tricks, that the objection to the sample was withdrawn. Supreme Court Commissioners. The Justices of the State Supreme Court yes- terday appointed the following gentiemen as Court Commissoners: 1. 8. Belcher, Niles Searls, John Haynes, E. W. Brett and N. P. Cnipman. With the exception of Mr. Chip- man these were all reappointments, the Com- missioners having held office for twelve years in four-year terms. Mr. Chipman was recentiy appoinied to fill the unexpired term of Peter Vanclief, deceased, Under the new iaw the appointments are for two years. D. B \oolf, secretary to the Commissioners since Msy 12, 1885, was rexppointed. R Suit Against Bondsmen, Suit was brought in the United States Dis- trict Court vesterday by United States Attor- ney Foote against Dr. J. H. Josselyn and A. J. Spear, bondsmen for L. H. Josselyn, to recover #500 bonds for the appearance of L. H. Josse- lyn in the District Court to answer a charga of opening letters addressed to Mrs. Dr. A. D. Howe. Josselyn is a son of the doctor and was errested_on May 26, 1806, and released on bonds. When the case was cal'ed a few weeks ago young Josselyn did not answer and his bail was aeclared forieited.

It is a great rleasure for me to confess that my health is improving wondertully : that dull, horrid feeling of low spirits has left me entirely, d now I have the greatest confidence in your restoring my health. I have not that tired feeling that used to make my life not worth living. It is & torture to me to think of why I did notbegin trestment when you first became interested in my case, for I would then have been completely restored to perfect manhood long ago. I was down tosee my old physician. He has a staff of five assistants. I told him your Hudyan remedy-treatment did me more good in one month than his medicine had done in nine months. He excused himself by saying my case had baflled the skill of so many doctors. Certainly your remedy-treatment is 8 wonder. FRANK B.
