16 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, UCITOBER 4, 1897. HAS CONE 0o | TR Vain Search of Deputy Sheriffs for the Miss- ing Kasson. PRISONER'S FLIGHT UNCHECKED- Sheriff Whelan Thinks He Was Led Astray by His Great Thirst. BELIEVED TO BE STILL IN THE CITY. The Missing Man's Wife Scoffs at the Story of His Having Been Left a Fortune. Where is W. F. Kasson? A half score of deputy sheriffs are scouring the higb-: ways and bywaysof the city for the pris- | oner who cleverly escaped from Deputy | lke Grosenger last Saturday afternoon, but so far no trace of him has been found. Sheriff Whelan is deeply chagrined over the escape and has suspended Grosenger vending an investigation. The Sheriff, as soon as he was notified of the affair Satur- day night, took personal charge of the searching party and continued on the worx all day yesterday until a late hour last night when he placed Chief Jailer Batierly in charge and sought a much needed rest. Sheriff Whelan is positive Kasson has not left the city, He believes the wbris- oner was impelled to seek freedom in order to indulge his overpowering appe- tite for liquor and that he is now en-| sconced in some saloon enjoying himself to the fullest extent of a great thirst, but limited means. *It does not seem possible that Kasson, | with only ten weeks more ot his sentence to serve, would deliberately pian to es- cape,” said the Sheriff last nigat. *“Al- though he claims to nave been left $250,- 000 by an uncle, the Chief Jailer tells me he is positive that Kasson did not bave over §5 when he left the jail. The fellow | h tbe reputation of being a hard | drinker, and it is my opinion that a sud- | den impuise seized him to get a drink. | such is the case I believe he will give himself up as soon as he gets sober. Of course I shall not _sit down and wait for bim 10 do so, but I am doing everything in my power to effect bis capture. Kas- | son did not have money enough to get very far away from tne ciiy, and I do not | think he has attempted to do so. | “Deputy Sheriff Grosenger has not made a report to me yet, but he has done | 0 to Chief Jailer Satterly, and according to the latter’s own statement he was guilty of gross careiessness, for which I | bave suspended him. | “‘This was the second time I have per- | mitted Kasscn to visit his home accom- | panied by & deputy. Two or three days ! before the firsi announcement in the papers that he had fallen heir toa fortune, he sent mea clipping irom some Eastern vapers tating that his uncle had left him $250,000, and requested me to let him get some papers out of his trunk. I sent a deputy with him and he secured lhel papers, taking them back to the jail with him. Hespent a day or two arranging tbhemand tuen sentthem on East. | “Last Thursday Kasson sent word to | me that he would like to get some more | papers, and 1 told him he could go home at the first opportunity. As there was lit- tie doing Baturday aiterncon, I gave him permission to go to his home, on McAllis- ter street, near Larkin, in company with Grosenger. They walked dowa Kearny street to Market, out that thoroughfare to DicAllister and then up to the house. “When within a few feet of the place Grosenger met an acquaintance with whom be stopped to talk. Kasson stood there for a moment, and then turning to tbe deputy, said: “‘I’ll go into the house, Ike, and get those papers while vou are talking to your friend. It won’t take me more than ten minutes.” ““*All might,’ replied Grosenger, and Kasson started up the stairs. After wait- ing some time for his man to return the | deputy became uneasy and went up to the house. It was some little time before Mrs. Kasson opened the door, and in re- ply to Grosenger’s inquiry said that Kas- son had left the house. The deputy was not satisfied with the woman’s statement, but made a thorough search of the prem- ises. It was evident thbat the pri-oner had escaped by the rear door and over the back fence. “There was where Grosenger made his second bad mistake. It was then about 4 o'clock, as near as I can learn, and, in- stead of reporting the escape at once, he started out alone to search for Kasson. He made the round of the resorts Kasson was known to have frequented, but could find no trace of him. At 7 o'clock he re- turned to the jail, and another deputy ‘was sent out with nim. They were gone until 10 o’clock, and upon their return the Filer in charge notified me of the escape. immediately ordered every available man to join in the search, and I was out all night and to-day myself. “Had I obeen nctified 1mmediately after the escape Kasson would have been re- captured in short order, but having sev- eral hours’ advantage he was enabled to stow himself well out of signt.

He has noth- ing to say in pailiaiion of his carelessness, | and although he has been suspended | from dutv he is devoting every moment to searching tor L s prisoner. He bas| scarce y slept since Kasson made his es- cape. Mrs. Kasson positively refuses to see any one, as sue does not care to have her name dragged into the affair. The ladv | with whom she has gone to room at 324 McAllister street, said last evening that Mrs. Kasson desired to have nothing more to do with her husband, as he had treated ber shamefully. Kasson only visited his wife twice during his confinement in the County Jail. The first visit was during the fore part of last week, and at that time a Deputy Sher® remained in the | room with the prisoner during the inter- view with ti.e wite. According to the land- | lady, the afternoon of the escape. Kasson | came to see his wife about 4:30 o’clock, | and did not leave the house tili 5:10.

She wrote to the other supposed heir in Sioux City, Iowa, about the matter and | received a letter in reply, in which he claims to be a brother of Kasson. Before this she had never heard of any brother, and the supposition is that the man in Sioux City is a confederate of Kasson, and that the inheritance story was mann- factured by the two to hoodwink the offi- | cers. The grandfather of Kasson is aun | employe in the postoffice, and be says he had only one son, Kusson's father, and that there are no granduncles from whom a bequest might have been received. Kusson arrived in this city from the | East with bis wife in February last and, being short of tunds, began passing ficti- tious checks upon grocerymen, coal-deal- ers and other retail merchants in the neighborhood of McAllister, Polk, Fulton and Grove streeis, near his residence at 542 McAllister street. He was arrested by Detective Harry Reynolas on March 4 and was charged with uttering a ficiitious check. Two days later an adaitional charge was booked against him. | At the time of his arrest Kasson said he was a publisher and had come. from Chi- cago 1o this city to g2t up a business con- nection. The cases were assigned to Judge Joa- chimsen’s conrt, and on March 31 he was | convicted and sentenced to ten months 1n the County Jail, six months on one charge and four months on the other. Last week Chiet Lees received a letter from Kasson’s brother in Sioux City, Iowa, stating that a relative in Montana bad left $250,000 to be divided beiween them and asking asto his whereabouts. The Chief reviied that he was in the County Jail, serving a ten months’ sen- | tence, and that with credits he would be at liberty on December 24. ANNIVERSARY SERVICES. The Church of St. Mary the Virgin Celebrates the Sixth Auniversary of the Dedication. The sixth anniversary of the dedication of the Church of 8t. Mary the Virgin, took place yesterday. This church differs from the ordinary Epi:sopal church, being more than usually high and extremely ritualistic. Rev. Father W. W. Boliton, the pastor of the church, officiated, and the full communion service was cele- brated. Under the direction of the organist, J. Haradan Pratt, the male quartet of ibe church rendered some very attractive music. The quartet is made up of the foliowing well-known singers: Mr. Walker, first tenor; Lieutenant Noble, second tenor; J. Stuart Murdock, first basso, and H. B, Pasmore, second tenor. i i every seat within anything like hearing distance of the rostrum. Fully 10,000 people were seated when the exercises commenced, and of these there were by actual count 2718 members of the league. St. Paul’s parish had the largest representation of league members, though their number, 285 was closely crowded by several other parishes. Two new companies of cadets, C and O, rurned out vesterday and they were the objects of much favorable comment. Company O 1s from the old 8t. Mary’s parish ana Company C replaces the comp; cently mustered out in 8t. Patrick’s. The young league members, who were seated” upon the main fluor, were iu!l and running over with enthusiasy There Was no occasion upon which a ¢! reould possibly be construed as appropriate that they allowed to pass without a vocal tribute of regard, and waen Rev. P. C. Yorke took his seat upon the platform they made the welkin ring. Another ova- tion was given upon the appearance of Thomas H. Fallon, president of the league, and when the red-coated league band came marching in to the stirring strains of “ElCapitan” their enthusiasm made the brass instruments ashamed of them- selves. The band, by the way, played beautifully all through the afternoon, and its numbers were always welcomed and applanded. The rale invariably with the League of the Cross is 1o open all meeting, and ral- lies with the Veni Creator, and, o: course, this was not departed from yesterday. Rev. Philip O'Ryan, spiritual director of the organization, conducted Gevotional exercises, afier which President Tnomas H. Fallon delivered intro luctory remarks. Mr. Fallon very briefly spoke oi the league’s history, and the mention of the names of Archbishop Riordan, Bishop Monigomery, Fathers Yorke and O’Ryan, ail of whom bave been earnest and uctive agents in the organization’s foundation and development, was greetea with demonstrations of affection. Mr.Fallon stated that the league now had 8500 members in San Francisce and Ala- meda counties.In conclusion he announced that Mrs. Margaret Deane, Professor Dun- niway of tanford and Robert Y. Hayne of the Supreme Court Commission had consented 1o act as judges of the essay cont-st for the Archbishop’s medal. Aiter a cornet soio by Messrs. Lycett and Wal- ton, the first contestant, John J. Greeley, who represented district No. 3, was intro- duced. The subj>ct of all the essays was to be the same, “The Necessity for Sunday Closing of Saloons.” Mr. Greeley’s essay was carefully pre- pared, and delivered with considerable or- atorical effect. He empbhasized the foct that the Saphath was an institution of di- vine origin, and dwelt upon the horrors of the desecration which the Sundey sa- loon causes. “W.th the saloon closed on Sunday,” be said, “and with a beritage of sober sons this land will live with in- creasing prosperity until the Angel Ga- |in | vesterday. tended that the question involved was not one of probibition, but of regulation. He argued that man needed one day’s rest in | seven. for his moral as well as his physical being, und that six days’ work end one | day’s carousing was worse than uninter- rupted toil. The speaker closed with an appeal to the citizens of the State to fetter the monster that was ruining their homes, While the judges were deliberating Father Yorke made a brief address in his usual happy vein. He gave the boys some go: d counsel concerning the keep- of their pledge snd expressed well- ‘wishes for the organization’s future. The result of the judges’ decision was then announc:d and as a result Arch- bishop Riordan’s diamond medal was pinned by Rev. J. J. Prendergast upon the breast of Edward J. Deasy of dis trict 4. The audience then joined in the Te Deum and were dismissed with prayer. COURSING AT INGLESIDE.

NEVER PLAYED A GAME OF CRAP The Whole Affair Comes From the Work of Persistent Enemies, MAKES VERY STRONG INSINUATIONS. All Came From the Fact That a Saloon-Keeper Refused to Quench His Thirst. C. A. Hughes, the colored messenger connected with the Appraisers’ office who has been charged with neglect of duty, | misconduct and profligate habits, is now‘ determined to show io the world, or at least to hisemployers, that an untruth has been uttered which may cost his accusers dearly. Inaletter to Treasurer Gage he states that he is the victim of an enemy who does not know when to stop, ana far- thermore the enemy is one who is much disliked by the friends of the Appraiser’s messenger. At any rate Mr. Hughes will attempt to retain his position, and says | that ever since his arrival in California he has held positions of trusi, aud hopes to remain on the Government list, despite the attempts of unrelenting enemies .to have him removed. In his letter he says: Sir: 1 would respectfully and humbly be- seech you, in the matter of the charges that have been made sgainst me through the Col- lector of Customs at this port, that you wiil carefully review the defense I have forwarded, and that in considering the charges you may also note theincentive and spirit of revenge which stand in such bold relief thronghout the same. 1 would call your particular atten- tion to the fact that the testimony of W. J. Sul- livan, whose revenge appears to be following me,is that of a rich and influential saloon- keeper, by whom I was grossiv and without just cause insulted and assaulied about three years ugo for no other cause tha:: that as a col- oied gentleman and citizen 1 sought refresh- ment in his establishment. That the testi- mony of Charies Williame, Falk. Hiider and Tehaney are all of men who are nOW or were at the time in the emplov of Sullivan. Toat there is no testimony offered which even iuti. mates that I have ever had trouble with him since that date. That the order and judgment of the Supe- rior Court attached to my defense show that I was adjudged guiltless of wrong-doing at the time. You wil further notice ihat the statement of Mr. Stevens is an admission that it was forced from him, and was nota voiun- tary charge on the part of a superior officer, and thatsuch testimony is directly rebutted by that of ex-Collector of Customs John H. Wise. That the tesumony of A. G. Williais, whose character is more iully set forth in my statement of defense, is directly rebutted by the proprietors of the establishment in which he aileges [ committed the a&ct; and that the slanderous statements of Dumas Jones, a re- cent appointee of Collector Jackson, is given the direct lie by the testimony of my witn and that of her mother, Mrs. Catherine Smithes, To the letter from the pastor of my ehurch I would call your special attention. 1n conclusior it is with great delicacy that I must call attention to a state of affuirs which might possibly prove a strong inceutive to an adverse recommendation from the Collectors’ office. Colonel Jackson, the Collector of Customs, | is the owner and proprietor of Jackson’s Napa Soda Springs, which produce a that is extensively used by Mr. Sullivan in the saloon business, and who can say whether a threat tostop the sale of Napa soda may j0t have more «ffect upon the colonel thau a sim- ilar threat to stop (he sa.eof Yellowstons whisky had with his predecessor? During eighteen years' re<idence in this city I have endeavored by deportment to be a gentleman ana to deserve the respect of gen- | tlemen. 1 have never left a position—and I have filled many—without taking with me the good-will of my employers, which wiil be manifest 1o you upon & review of the papers accompanyiug my defense. I feel that as a ! colored Democrat I can expect but little sym- pathy from a Republican administration, but in the name of Justice I have faith in appeal- ing to your higner sense of honor in the con- sideration of my case.
