THE SAN FRA ISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1897. SEPARATE ANSWERS FUR ALL Supervisors Are Allowed to | Make an Individual Defense. JUDGE WALLACE RULES THAT WAY Important for the Minority of| Four in the Municipal Board. EVEN THE “SOLID EIGHT” MAY S0 ACT Possible Ountcome of George K. Fitch's Suit of Ouster and the New Members. A new and interesting phase of the suit instituted by George K. Fitch to oust the | Supervisors from office will be presented in Judge Wallace’s court to-morrow morn- | ing. It is, in fact, nothing less than an | attempt of the honest four of the board | to escape the evil consequences of the | dereliction of duty on the part of the “solid eight.” When the suit wes brought to eject the Supervisors because they failed to fix the water rates in the month of February, as required by the coustitusion and the statute, Supervisor Rottanzi declined to join with the other members of the board in employing Attorney Garret Mc- Enerney, saying that he preferred to ap- pear for himse!f until he could see . his | way clear 10 acknowledge himself equally inculpated with the aforesaid ‘'solid eizht,” and that was a thing he was in no | mood to do. When asked if he would permit the filing of separate answers by the several members of the board who belieyed that they could justify their positions in the making of the water rates, Judge Wallace | replied in the afhrmative; and itis under- stood that Supervisors Rottanzi, Lack- man, Clinton ana Dodge have availed themselves of this opportunity to clear themselves from blame. Other members | of the board may, of course, come in and make similar answer when the case is called for trial, but up to a late hour last night they had not shown any inclination to take that course. It therefore looks at present writing as it it would be a battle between the ‘‘solid eight” and the mi- nority of four. There is @ possibility, of course, that the permission granted by Judge Wallace ‘ for the minority to file separate answers was in the nature of a courtesy that car- ries with it no relief. but the minority has shown a disposition- to take the matter | seriously by employing atiorneys to prop- | ery present their s before the court. | The minority of ‘the board, however, | consider it a substantial victory to. be | allowed to make their defense. They will | show that on a certain date, to wit, the 20th of February, Supervisor Rottanzi moved to proceed with the flxing of the water rates, that Supervisor Lackman sec- onded tie motion and that these joined | with Supervisors Clinton and Dodge imr | voting in the affirmative. Having shown | these facts, they will ask to be absolved from blame, and it is difficult to see how | the court can consistently refuse to con- sider a defense so clearly just. It is not expected that the attorneys for the ‘'solid eight” will permit their clients to join forces with their most pro- | nounced opponents in the board, but that the original plan of campaign will be car- ried out by Attorneys McEnerney and Pillsbury. This contemplates an attempt io prove to the satisfaction of the court | that the law which says the rates must be | fixed in F bruary is directory merely and is aot mandatory. Since so much talk has been going onin regard to the possibility of ousting the Supervisors there has been considerable speculation touching the appointments tuat Mayor Phelan would makg if he haa the chance. Several lists have been made out, but none are exactly satisfactory to | the politicians who are trying to forecast | the result of the Mayor’s choice. Goin: on the assumption that all the members would go if any are evicted thereisa be- lief that Mr. Phelan would fill the vacan- cies about like this: First Ward, Stewart Menzies. Second Ward, ex-Senator John Fay. Third Ward, Capiain Jim McDonald. Fourth War B Fifth Ward, Eighth Ward, Joseph N Ninth Ward, A. B. Magui; Tenth Ward, Charles Gild Eleventh Ward, John F. Grady. Twelith Ward, James Denman. Itis assumed that none of the Super- visors now in_office would be eligible for appointment if they should be expelled | for malieasance, bowever much it might i appear that such malfeasance was con- structive and not actual., The judgment of the court against them would be con- clusive, the lawyers say, no matter how much they may have wished to comply with the constitution and the statute in the fixing of waier rates. Judge Wallace has cleared his calendar oi all minor cases and is prepared to take up the trial of the Supervisors and press it to a conclusion. -As he has already said this is 8 summary proceeding; made so by the statute, and there is'no reason for de- laying -the -bearing for the accomwmoda- tion of counsel or respondents. It may be remarked in ‘passing that the annual yacation: of: the “Supervisors is suppwed to be now -in force, but Mr. Fiteh's shit and the trouble the Supervisors have ex- perienced in. consequence will tend to seriously interrupt iheir play time. -All of them are expected to be present in JudgeWsllace’s court to-morrow morning, DOGS THAT HOWL, . Proprietor of a Meat Market Arrested for Maintaining a Nuisance. J. A. Crough, proprietor of a meat mar- ket at 108 Sixth street, was arrested on Monday on the charge of‘maintaining a nuisance -and ~was released on $10 cash bail. Mrs. Hannah Fleming has a lodging- louse in the flats above the meat market, and she is the complaining witness in the case. Her complaint is that Crough keeps two dogs on watch in bis market at night and their barking and howling keep her lodg- ers awake. Within the past two weeks she has lost nine of her lodgers owing to the nuisance, and she was afraid i it con- tinued her house would spon be empty. | when court adjourned last Friday, was |ing to show up his past record, and in | charged with perjury and I Jo not intend | its admission. A LITTLE MORE OF BARTLETT The Man Who Confessed to Perjury on the Stand Once More. He Says Attorney Ruef Wanted to Set a Trap for Reuben H. Lloyd, The Defense's Oase Closed and the Plaintiffs Are Now Putting in Rebuttal Evidence. Reaction set in on the Fair trial yester- day, and the session passed off withoun sensation or even incident of consequence aside from the closing of the defense and the beginning of the plaintiffs’ rebuttal. Something better than this was ex- pected, and the courtroom was rendered stifling by a curious and anticipating crowd. True, Charles 5. Bartlett —the man who confessed himself under oath to | be a miserable perjurer, and was con- signed in consequence to a dungeon by | Judge Slack—was on the stand again, but | even he was a disappointment, for aside from tangling himself up worse than ever | and giving an exhibition of his abilities as a prevaricator he was not entertaining. | Attorney Delmas, who had not com- pleted his cross-examination of Bartlett | ject of notarial blanks was again taken up. Mr. Mitchell ‘said his side had concluded not to call Wilbur. That spoiled what bad been counted upon asanother sensation. Chief Lees putin an appearance now and was sworn. He was asked the usual formal questions as to his age and occa- pation. & 2 *Do_vou know Mrs. Nettie R. Craven! asked Delmas. *I do not,”’ was the Chiei’s reply. *Do you know her by sight?” “Don’t think so.”” ‘“‘Have you never seen her?”’ “Not to my knowledge.” Deimas then sprang his star query. “During the month of April, 1895, when Mrs, Craven left this City for the Kast, did you put detectives on her track and have her every movement and ac- tion watched ?” 3 Mr. Mitchell objected. - He said the court had_ already ruled that such tesii- mony was inadmissible, the occasion being when Captain Curtin was on the witness- stand. “The same ruling will prevail this time,” said Judge Slack. “Very well, then,” was Delmas’ acqui- escence. ‘‘That is all, Chief.”” And the Chief departed. Mr. Delmas now said he wanted to re- call Attorney Russell J. Wilson to_the | stand to have him identifv a letter written by Senator Fair from Yuma to Louis Bresse, regarding a wheat deal. He had been unable to serve Wilson with a sub- pena, however, and as that gentleman was to be the last witness for the defense, he could not close his case. Mitchell suggested that the matter might be settied by siipulation. This was agreeable all around, and the record now shows that Mr. Wilson identified the letter—just as if he had appeared 1n person and inspected it. The defense then rested, and the plain- tiffs were given the reins once more, this time for rebuttal. To the dismay of the jury and audience, the old wearying sub- A. C. Forsyth, who in 1896 was manager of the stationery department of the H. S. Crocker Company, was chlled. He iden- tified an orderon the printing department for blanks he had written on the 13th of February, 1896. The cbject of introducing this bit of evidence was to rebut the testi- mony of C. K. Bonestell, who said he saw these same blanks in General Dickinson’s office during the first four days of Janu- ary. responsible for the reappesrance of the unhappy mortal in court yesterday and resumed the baiting. He began by de- manding of the witness that be relate in detail the story of how he came to tell‘ Lawyer Lioyd that he had sworn falsely | in Mrs. Craven’s behaif. Barilett told the now old story over again. He said be had been informad that the counsel for the plaintiffs were go- order to prevent this and save his family from disgrace he voluntered to change his former testimony. He said he told Mr. Lloyd that he had been made the victim of an infamous conspiracy. “What was that conspiracy?’ asked Delmas. 1 refuse to answer on the ground that tt would tend to incriminate me. Iam to incriminate myseif.’’ Eartlett explained further that he had retained J. N. E. Wilson to defend him and that attorney had advised him to de- cline to answer certain questions. “You swore on the witness-stand here that vou saw Senator Fair at Notary J. J. Cooney’s office on the 27th of September, 1894. "Was that true or false?” I decline to answer." “You saw a person there you said?"’ o d “Did you think that person was Senator r when you gave that testimony ?"’ Yes, Idid.” That was all Delmas wanted to know. Bartlett was then taken in hand by the other side, and, in response to Mr. Mitch- ell’s questions, said that he had asked Mitcheil to see that the money he nad borrowed from Attorney Ruef’s bmther-l in-law was paid, but Mitchell refused to put up a cent. Mitcheli offered Bartlett's written con- fession in evidence, but the court denied Delmas took another turn at the wit- ness and asked him if he had not stated in Attorney Ruef’s office several days ago that he had been offered $5000 to turn bis testimony. “No,” said Bartlett, I said that I had heard from another party that if I would | 20 to Mr. Wheeler's office there would be | $5000 in it for me."” “*Who told vou that?” Daniel 0'Connell.” “Did you not tell M-, Wilbar, who was a wiiness in this case, that such an offer had been made to you?” “[ simply told Wilbur that the Fair side was reaching out for me and that there was something in it.” Continuing, Bartlett said that after 0’Connell had asked him to see the attor- nevs on the other side he called upon Ruef and told him what bad occurred. Ruef told him to follow ‘it up'and trap Lioyd. He said also that Ruefadvised him tosign any paper or statement that Lloyd wanted him to, and that everybody woula have a ‘‘good time” with the money. Alter answering a few more unimport- ant questions Bartlett was excused from the stand and returned to the care of the Sheriff. Significant winks and sidelong glances were exchanged throughout the court- room when, shortly after order was called for in the afternoon, Mr. Delmas turned to the bailiff and directed him to call Chief of Police Lees. “Just summon Captain Lees, please—or Chief Lees, I should say,” was the way he ut it. The Chief was not present and a mes- senger was sent for him, so there was a wait. In the meantime Mr. Delmas asked his opponents if it were true that they de- sired to recall the witness Wilbur for fur- ther cross-examination? It had been ru- mored about, so it appears, that a confes- She had complained to Crough, but he simply laughed at her. 1 sion, similar to that made by Bartlett, was to be dragged from this witness. But FONCTIONS OF SUPERVISORS Discussion of the Subject by the Charter Com- mittee. Defeat of a Substitute Giving All Power Into the Hands of the Board. Only Legislative Funotions Subject to the Mayor's Veto Will Be Oonferred. The legslative power of the City and County of San Francisco shall be vested in a legislative body, which shall be designated the Board of Supervisors; such body is also designated in this charter the Supervisors. The foregoing is the first paragraph of the report of the committee on legislation of the Committee of One Hundred on the new charter. It was adopted last nigot after a spirited and rather wandering de- bate lasting three hours. The ball was started rolling by Gavin McNab’s motion to make the report of the committee on legislation the special order of the even- ing. After this had carrieda Joseph Asbury Johnson introduced a substitute adding to the legislative powers of the Supervisors judicial powers as well. It provides that the several branches of the government shall be organized as administrative de- partments, each in charge of a standing committee made up of members of the Board of Supervisors, and all such stand- ing committees shall be chosen by a ma- jority vote of the whole Board of Super- visors. An expert superintendent of each department shall be appointed by the Su- | pervisors to hold office at tue pleasure of the boar, but they shall not be removed except for cause. R The Board of Supervisors shall consist FORD . Employes Are Back in the Fair Case Telling About Notarial- Blanks. Then came the ubiquitous Stanford—the young man who has been on the witness- stand at least a dozen times since this trial began. He is a clerk at the Crocker store | and has charge of the legal-blank depart- ment. He said he received the written order previously identifiea by Forsyth and filled it. Subsequently he delivered the bianks to Generul Dickinson, who was the attorney for the Crocker Company. The packages which were found.in Dick- inson’s office were shown to the witness, und he immediately recognized them as the ones he delivered. Stanford was stilt on the etand when court adjourned. ORITTENDEN DISCHARGED. Will Not Be Compelled to Pay His Contempt of Court Fine. Attorney James L. Crittenden, who was fined $250 by Judge Slack for contempt of court for carrying a loaded pistol into court, has escaped punishment, as he was discharged from custody yesterday by Judge Carroll Cook on a writ of habeas corpus. It was on the 3d of July, 1896, that the case of Lillian Ashley against Lucky Baldwin was on: trial in Judge Slack’s court. Itappeared that Miss Ashley’s sis- ter deemed it her duty to kill Baldwin, and she took a shot av him with her little pistol. Her action caused the wildest excitement, for pistol practice is unusual even- in the courts of California. In the melee Mr. Crittenden drew his pistol from" his pockel, or at least put his hand in nis pocket and was about to draw. When questioned by the court he ac- knowledged that he carried a pistol, but urged that in attempting to draw it he was only intending to act in seli-defense, as he thought that his life was threaten by some of the friends of Baldwin wh were present in -court and had likewise shown their weapons. For more than a year the matter has been dragging along in the courts, no less than four writy. of habeas corpus having been sworn out in Mr, Crittenden’s behalf. ‘When the ca @ was called yesterday At- torney Van Wyck proved to the satisfac- tion of the cours that the original order of commiiment for contempt could not be found. If it was ever entered it was en- tered in what known as the ‘“rough minute-book,” which at that time was in the custody of Al Evans, a deputy ia the County Clerk’s office. That book has disappeared and there is no record of the order of commitment being entered. An effort to cure this defect was made by the entry of a second order signed on the 9th of July. Judge Cook held that the oniy authority the Sherid could have, under the law, for hoiding Mr. Critienden, wasa certified copy of the original order of July 3. As that cannot be procured it.followed that the petitioner oucht to be discharged {rom custody, and it Was so ordered, e of fifty-four elective members and the Mayor, who shall be a member ex-officio and chairman of the Council and entitled to a casting vote, the Supervisorsto be elected at large and to hold office for two years, Jonn M. Reynolds supported the sub- stitute of Mr. Johnson. He said that it would be a great mistake fo frame a charter upon the modeis of the proposed charters which had been already rejected by the people. The people wanted some- thing different. There are thousands of children in New York and Boston without school facilities and he ascribed that condition of affairs to the fact that the governing powers of the schools had been appointed instead of elected. It was time that all the depart- ments shouid be grouped together and elected by the people, and it was time that the people of the City and County of San Francisco should abandon tne old and useless ideas and embrace new and progressive ones. E. P. Pond opposed that part of the substitute in which it was provided that the standing committees should be elected by the majority of the Super- visors. He argued that the committees should be appointed by the Mayor. If they were nppointed by the Supervisors the majority could combine into a ring and take control of all the committees and departments. If Supervisors were cor- rupt now, if bossism prevails, a worse state of affairs wouid ensue if the charter were framed according to the ideas of Mr. Johnson’s substitute. The Mayor should have the appointing power. He siould alwaysstand between the Supervisors and the people. Senator Braunhart said that in all his experience of thirty-five years as man and boy in this City there never had been an honest Board of Supervisors, but there had been many an honest Mayor, and they had saved the people. The iast pro- posed charter would have been adopted by 15,000 majority had there not been in it a clause discriminating against persons of a certain religious belief. It was not for the convention to follow the example of Giasgow or of ‘some city in New Zealand. & _Edward Rosenberg said that the ques- tion was whether they should have a dic- tatorial Mavor or a democratic form of government. Rome changed from econo- mic absolutism to a dictator, and then .v.renl down. Now the cry from the cities is, Let us have a dictator]” With reference tothe statement that this City had had many dishonest Supervisors and honest Mayors, the speaker said thatihe Mayors, ——— CASTORIA For Infants and Children. & b VIAPPOR not being vested with much power, were not bought by the corporations. If the Mayor were to be given dictatorial pow- ers there would be danger that the cor- porations would take a hand in his elec- tion and would endeavor to control him afterward. Gavin McNab believed that the contest was between the American and European governments, bur it should be remem- bered that transplanted governments do not always flourish. The essential princi- ple of the American system of government was the separation of the legislative and the executive powers. The substitute of- fered by Mr. Johnson would iccrease the evils under which the people were now suffering. Apply it to the Legislature; give the Legislature executive powers and take those powers from the Governor, and the resuit would be that the Legisla- ture would soon own the State. It would not make the Supervisors more honest to multiply the number of dis- honest Supervisers by four. Ernest McCullough toid about the low rate of taxation in Glasgow, Birmingham and other English and Scotch cities, and compared them with the rates prevailing in American cities to_the disparagement of the Americans. In the former the public utilities were owned by and ad- ministered by the municipalities. Joseph Leggett opposed the motion to strike out the words giving the Buper- visors execuiive powers, The forces, he said, were at work upon the American mind to enter upon the system of demo- cratic government and to do awav with autocratic mayors. Nothing could be learned out of the experience of one city or one individual. It was necessary to g0 abroud and learn what other peoples and other cities were doing. The speaker quoted from Dr. Atbert Shaw, to the effect that the city of Glasgow had the finest and most successtul government of any city in the world. It had a council of seventy-five mem- bers and a Lord Provost with the limited power which it was proposed in Mr. John- son’s substitute to give the Mayor. “There is not any higher civic virtue in Europe than there is 1n America, and the ayverage civic virtue of Glasgow is no higher than that of San Francisco.” The speaker told how, when the Super- visors ifailed to have the streets properly cleaned, the public spirited citizens of this City took the matter in hand and had the work done themselves—and it could not te -aid truthfully that the people of San Francisco were not able to govern them- selves. When Supervisors are vlected by the people at large, and not by 32 per cent of the People, there will be an honest Board of Supervisors. The present Board of Supervisors are serving the people that elected them, and they are not serving the people at large. It was propored to have a board of fifty-four Supervisors, who, by the terms of the substitute, would be elected by the people and not by the bosses or the cor- porations. He believed it would be for the best interest of the community to have a Jarge democratic Board of Super- visors elccted in a democratic way. Mr. Leggeti pronounced the word “‘dem- ccratic’” with a small non-partisan **d.”” Stewart Menzies favored a large Board of Supervisors with legislative and execu- tive powers, but with the vower of veto vested in the Mayor. and proviaing that tne Mayor should appoint the standing committees once a year instead of once in two. Judge Thompson said that the Super- visors had abused their trust and that was why the charter committee had peen organized. It was proposed by Mr. John- son and Lis friends to increase the num- ber of Supervisors and to give them in- cressed powers. This was equivalent to curing the bite of a rattlesnake with the bite of another rattlesnake. The scheme woud result only in the autocracy of men without any responsibil- ity whatever. The question before the meeting was: *‘Shall we add to the evil which the Supervisors now have it in their power to inflict?"’ After a discussion lasting until 11 o’clock the Johnson substitute was uefeated and the tirst paragraph of the committee’s re- port was adopted by a vote of 36 to 13. Then the committee adjourned until next Thursday evening. MORE TIME NEEDED. No Charter Election Will Be Held in the Month of October Next. Attorney-General Fitzgerald’s Opin- ion on the Subject Asked by Election Commissioners, The Board of Election Commissioners held a meeting yesterday to act on a com- munication from the charter committee requesting that & special election for free- holders be held at the earliest possible moment. Auditor Broderick, City and County Attorney Creswell, Tax Collector Block and Surveyor Tilton were present. Tax Collector Block moved that an elec- tion be called for the second Tuesday in October, stating that after the middle of October he would be very busy and would not be able to give the matter his atten- tion. Auditor Broderick objected to so early a date on the ground thay it would be im- possible to prepare for the election in so short a period, the labor {nvolved making at least two months’ preparation neces- sary. It was stated that the City Trustees of Sacramento had been advised that charter elections could only be held under the primary election laws, and that they had asked Attorney-General Fitzgerald for an opinion on the question. On the votes of the Auditor, City and County Attorney and Surveyor it was de- cided to await the decision of the Attor- ney-General, and the Registrar was in- structed to communicate with Mr. Fitz- gerala at once and transmit a copy of his opinion whan rendered to the board. No action will be taken before Mr. Fitzgerald is heard from. s The largest egg 1s that of the ostrich. It weighs three pounds, and is considered equal in amount to twenty-four hens’ eggs.

New Town of Angiola the Cen- ter for a Productive Region. Land Formerly Isolated Has Doubled in Value and Yielded a Big COrop. By the end of this week the Valley Rail- road will have laid track to and estab- listed a temporary terminus at the new townsite of Angiola, just east of Tulare Lake and twenty-four miles south of Han- ford and fifty-five miles nortn of Bakers- field. Angiola already hasa new hotel and a warehouse as a nucleus of atown certain to grow when trains shall make it less dif- ficult to bring building material there. It is in the center of a promising new wheat country, isolated and neglected until this last year, when the advent of the Valley Railroad became a certainty. Previously the nearest railroad station was fifteen miles distant, and wheat farm- ing was not undertaken. Last year, how- ever, an Italian tried for a crop of wheat and got flfteen sacks to the acre. Now land that would not a year ago sell at §5 an acre cannot be bought for $10 and more. There are between 10,000 and 20,000 acres of lana about Angiola suitable for wheat. It can be irrigated, or in spring inundated from Elk Bsyou, also known as Tule River. The construction gang of tracklayers was at work within three miles of Angiola last night and progressing at the rate of a mile of track a day.
