On the one side Mr. Holbrook claims that he has secured abundant proof that the woman is not the proper person to ave charge of the littie feilow, whose father is reputed to be D. M. Delmas, the well-known lawyer, and he cites several instances where recently she had been guilty of offenses against society. While discussing the matter in this manner one tne directors of the society, Mrs. H. Templeman, entered the office and madea protest against the course pursued by the ne stated thut she did not appearance of the scciety being *'do uny one’s dirty work ie said she knew nothing about little Dei’s mother and had no desire to, nor to be mixed up in the affair in any way, Mrs. Temp! added that last week, belure this matter came oat, she called at the cffice of Delmas & Shoriridge and that there a member ol tne firm promised on bebalf of Mr. 1o the sociely, a contribution such as many make for the support of the insiitu- tion. She expre-sed regret that this case snould have follow-d 80 quickly after the promise of the donation. Mre. ‘Temple. man was not at all pleased with the shape and she did not mince wordsin ~0 expressing berself, Mr. Holbrook decared that he never Lias had anything 1o do with the boy's father nor even spoken to him or toany of his revresentatives. ie further as- serted that the information upon which the investigation 1s being made did not come from any one who is materially in- tere ted.

Mr. Ho brook savs that he is in posses- sion ot sufficient evidence to warrant him in beginniug an action for the removal of the cbild from the custody of the mother, and he inuimates that such a course will be taken very soon. pon this matter Jeannine Sartliffe Young, or as she calls herself, “Mis.

In faci, she makes a total denial of all the unkind things that have been said reflecting upon bLer and her iife. ‘‘I'he worst that can be said against me,” continued the woman, “‘was that years ago I was so fool.sh as to believe that Delines loved me, and aside from the mistakes that followed my association with the man, 1 have lived a good life.

San Fraxcisco, Sept. 28, 1897, To the Editor of The Call—S1r: In an ariicle in this morning’s Examiner rela- tive to the affairs of the Central Pac: Railroad shareholders, several errors ap- pear regarding the doings and intentions of C. E. Bretherton ana his friends, which bsence I desire to correct out of justice to him. Mr. Bretherton and his friends control barely ecnough shares to enavle them to elect one director out of seven, and he has neither the power nor the ambition which the article attributes to him. The resign; tions of Messrs. C. P. Huntington and I E. Gates from tte board of direciors were enuirely voluntary on their part, for tem- porary reasons, and without suggestion or *“forcing” by Mr. Bretherton. The | London meeting of the sharehoiders is | called for October 18, mereiy to afford an opportunity for conference concern the respective claims of the two riv English committees. It is entirely u: official, and if any vote should be taken there it would have no legal significance. Mr. Bretherton has no expectation of wresting contro!’’ of the company from Mr. Huntington at that meeting or else- where, so faras I know. He will prob- ably support the Banbury committee— the more conservauive of the two—with what influence he can command. That commities has been in existence several years, has consulted and co-operated with Mr. Huntington, and has been hitherto the recognized exponent of the wishes of English shareholders. There is every reason to suppose that it will continue to do so. Very truly yours, Crarres P. Eents. e India rubber beels are 10 be attached to the shoes worn by French soldiers.

SERVANT GIRL DUPED, Warrant for the Arrest of Mrs. Lombard, an Employment Agent. Augusta Jeshuneke, a servant girl who recently came from Redwood City, swore to a complaint yesterday charging Mrs. Lombard, who has an employment agency at 417 Poweil street, with obtaining money by false pretenses. A few days ago the girl went to the agency, and Mrs. Lombard told her of a situation with a widower who bad five children, and there was a prospect of mar- riage. The girl paid a fee of $2 50, but on going to the address found there were the widower, five children, a mother-in-law and a brother, and she decided she could not take the job. She returned to the agency, but Mrs. Lombard refused io give her back the 0 or contract by which she agreed to give Mrs. Lombard $50 if she married the widower. The girl notified the police, and Detiec- tive Anthony went to Mrs. Lombard with her, but she deciined to part with the money or contract, so the warrant was 1ssued for her arrest. Tue police say they have received sev- era! complaints from servant giris who have been done out of a fee in a similar manner by Mrs. Lombard. e ————— A ten-ton racin- yacht of aluminum has been constructed.
