THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1897. o LANPY MADE BEFORE GAS \pastor of the First Christian Church Refuses to Pay an Exorbitant Bill The Company Admitted That the Bills Seemed Too Large, but Refused to Lower. The Church Will Be Lighted With Oandles—Rev. Mr. Ford Snaps His Fingers at the Company. The members of the First Christian Church and the San Francisco Gas Com- pany are indulging in a slight dispute about the size of tbe gas bills. Which will come out ahead it is hard to say. The gas company says it knows the bills are too large, but for all that unless the bills are paid at once the First Christian Church will have to go without lighting | as far as it is concerned. The Rev. Frank | Ford, tue pastor of ine chuich, cheerfully Jis them to go abead. “Lamps were | sed before gas,”” he says, “and I guess | they will serve our purpose for the pres- ent; if not we can hive electricity put 1n.” Mr. Ford claims the charges have been cxorbitant and that the company haugh- retuscs 10 listen 10 reason. The first meter they put in registered too little and they took it out. This last one registers too much, and they refuse to do anything ne trustees have refused to pay the mistake 1s rectified, the gas com- pany won't hear of doing anything Lut| | | collecting the money tney claim is due, and consequently tue gas will be shut off | entirely. No bill was presented for July. the com- pany claiming that the meter did not reg: ister the full amount of gas consumed. They then put in a new meter, and at the end of the monts found that the church | had consumed over $10 worth of zas, and accordinely putin a vull for the preceding month for the sume amount, making mn ail $22 for the two months. The next| montu the bill wvas even more, and the | irustees demanded thet the meter be fixed. | This the company refused to do unless 1t | was at the expense of the church. | Professor Sturces visited the adjuster of | cluims and the bills for the preceding five years were gone tnrough. It was found | that t did not average $5 a month. The adjuster sa:a he was very sorry, but he cowia do nothing. The bills, he ad- mitied, were rather large, but they would have to be paid just the same. Then, Mr. Sturges savs, tieir ciaim went througn | the hands of almost every official i1n the | company w:thout doing any zood. | ‘I'he pastor snaps his finger at them and | tells them to go ahead. *“If they care to! sue me, ali weli and good; but at any rate | we will not bave gas in this church | Last night the church gave a social and | it was lighied by candies only, and the | services next Sunday evening wilt be held | i the Sunday-school rooms and the same | manner of lighting will be observed. | DOST EXCESS IN TeAS. Important Ruling by the United | States General Appraisers | in New York, More Than Ten Per Cent of Dust or| Fannings Will Be Cause for | RBejection. praiser’s office in this city by merchants and brokers in the tea trade, the senti- ment was expressed that there should be more uni ormity in the manner of testing teas imported into the United States. Complaini was made that teas rejected by an examiner in one part of the country were accepted by anotber examiner. This | and otner similar facts have disturbed the | irade, and a demand has been made for formity. At the meeting Temporary | miner Toohey was asked whether he ould reject tea which was superior to the Government standard on five points yet iell below the standard on the point of dust, and he replied that1if the excess of dust was not too great he would admit the goods. A circular received since then from the | Treasury Department would indicate that Mr. Toohey was t0o lenient in bis judg- ment, and that an excess of more than 10 er centol dust will be sufficient to ex- ude tne goods. The circular contains | the decision of the Board of General Ap- praisersin New York City in the matier of certain teas imported from London and condemned for excessive dust. The fol- lowing exiracts from the decision lay down the law: 5 It is urged ana Ceylon tes age of dust or fan ! i !

It was aiso coutended that much of that condemned as dust was needle 1:a1, and that the reguiations instrucied examiners not to | cousider as dust the needle leaf which may puss through the sieve. We are of the opinion that the requirement that certain teas must not contain over 10 per cent of dust that will puss through a No. 16 sieve is as much a part of the standard as the standurd package of te fisell. While in purity and fiiness for co sumption the said teas are not i ferior to t standards, we find that they contain more tnan 10 per cent of Aust, and we consequently find and decide that they are beluw the stund. ards prescribed by law. The protests are ac- cordingly overruied. ———— Only a Simple Assault.

As stated in yesterdav's CaLn, Zeke Abrabams received a dispatch from New York Thursday evening. The dispatch | was signed Teddy Alexander and rea “Goddard has arrived and signed articles, ‘ which I have mailed you. Forward $500 | for expenses. Goddard leaves to-mor- | row.” | Thursday night THe CaLL received a dispatch from its Boston correspondent, stating that Goddard had arrived in that | city Thursday and left for New Yorkin | the afternoon to meet his manager, Billy | Madden. i J. J. Groom of the National Ctub, in | “I don't | think that Goddard has signed articles to | meet Sharkey. We have always under- stood, in fact, we know that Midden rep- resents Goddard, and we have been ‘doing | business witk him.’” f The news that Goddard had signed arti- cles 10 meet Sharkey did not create much | interest in sporiing circles yesterday. Sherkev is a dead frost, pueilisticaliy speanking, in this town, and will not be much of a drawing card; in fact, it 1s doubtiul if a club bandling him will make its expenses. Sharkey’s exploit with Fitzsimmons killed him with the San Francisco publie. | It would havs been far better for bim if he had scted like &« man and acknowi- | edged fairly and squareiy that he was de- | leated by ¥iltzsimmons insiead of robbing the Cornishman of the laurels of a well- arned victory. If Sharkey had done this | he would not to-day be without friends in San Francisco. There never was a bigeer and more | transparent fake perpetrated in the ring | than that performed by Sharkey. He showed himself 10 be a pugilist devoid of courage, and his last fight here finished him with the sporting public. Gooa judges say that Sharkey cannot draw 800 people it it were advertised that the show wonld be free. When a pugilist violates all the ethizs of the ring, asserts that he was fouled when struck a fair blow, falls to the floor and clumsily simulates pain, all of which Bharkey did, he certainiy has a monu- menial presumption to ask patronage from the public. fome few neop'e say that they admire the brazen effrontery of the sailor, but it is an effrontery that the public doesn’t like and won't stand. On the night when Sharkey seconded | Connolly in his battle with Zeigler, Shai- | key was received with derisive cheers and shouts, and some one in the audience per- | tinently asked bhow much he wei hed. | When it was announced at the Dixon- Smith battle that Sharkey and Goddard | had been matched it was greeted with hisses and other utierances of scorn. MAY LOSE HER OHILDREN, Mrs. Aunie Crosby Begins (o Tremble at Possibility of Such a Calamity. Mrs. Annie Crosby was in tearful mood in Judge Coffey’s court yesterday because she feared tnat she was about to lose cus- tody of her two little daughters, who are called Adeline and Rosa Shawl. According to the testimony Mrs. Crosby has had a varied career. She was married | to than Lindenbsum about twelve years ago, but left him and he obtained a divorce on the ground of desertion. Aft- | erward she lived with Shawl, in accord- ance with wbat he declared was a “‘com- mon-law marriage,” and by this union she hed two children, whose control is now in question. Less than a year ago the woman lef: Sbawl and married F. L. Crosby, which led Shawl to interfere, and a¢ his sueges. tion the California Socieiy for the Preven- tion of Cruelty to Cniidren applied for letters of guardianship. Attorney Treadwell insisted that Mrs, Crosby as the mother of the children nas a prior right to their custody; that she is now a married woman and is leading a good life; that any mistakes she made in the past ouzht not to be held up against her; that she will take better care of the little ones than any one else, and will them more affection than any strancer could possibly bestow. Judg - Coffey said ne was not willing to decide the case without hearing testimony touching the manner in which Mrs, Crosby is now living, and intimaied that he was not disposed to award the custody of the little ones to either of the parents as at present advised, but that he would look further into the matter next Monday. —————— Narrowly Escaped Death.

Ex-Depnty Nellio O’Brien Swore That Welburn Shaved Her Salary. The introduction of Miss Nellie O'Brien as a witness for the prosecution in the Welburn case raised a storm of objection from the attorneys for the defense, they alieging that they were taken by surprise and complaining tkat the prosecution had treated them unfairly by keeping secret the fact that she was to be a witness. | There was quite a passage of words be- States Attorney Foote and Messrs. McNab and Gould, but the court decide: that the witnes: was properly on the stand and thatshe might teil herstory. Miss O'Brien, who is a handsome woman, told how she had been engaced by Welburn as a clerk at $50 per month and how she had signed vouchers for §125, of which she received only $50.

SAN DIEGO WATER CASE. The Company Cannot Compel Its Patrons to Use the Meters. An Interpretation of the Rate Ordi- nance by the Supreme Court. A decision of the Supreme Court handed down yesterday aflirms the judgment of the lower court in the case of V. R. Shaw | against the San Diego Water Company. The case grew cut of a:fferent interpre- tations of a San Diego city ordinance in regard to the water rate and is of consid- erable interest to the peopie of San Diego. By the ordinance it is provided that cer- tein rates shall be charged by the watir company for the water furnished to pri- vate parties, but there is also a proviso which gives owners of property the privi- iege of either paying according to these rates or demanding a meter. The com- pany put a meter in Mr. Shaw's bouse without his having asked for it, and at the end of the month a bill was brought in for $1¢ 60. This Mr. Snaw refused 10 pay, but | offered the company $3 65, which was the amount he had formerly paid and was ac- cording to the “famiiy rate’ provided for in the ordinance. The company held for its original bill and threatened to shut the waier off from ir. Shaw’s house. Shaw broucht action in the court to enjoin the company from refusing to iet hini have water, and judg- ment was given in his favor. Tne water company appealed the case to the Supreme Coart, which in the de- ision yesterday held that Mr. Shaw was ht in his claim and that the water company cannot force property-owners to pay the meter rate. The court said that the ordinance was a trifle obscure on the point, but the intention was that the peo- p'e should have the right to demand a meter. In case water is wasted by any one the company can bring charges and can get redress from the courts, bui tne mere assertion that so much water was used is not sufficient excuse for putting in a meter. IMPORTED BAGS. They Must Be Packed Separately for the Convenience of the Apprai A circular has been received at the Cus- tom-house from the Secretary of the Treasury announcing that in future im- noriers will be required to have bags of foreign and domestic origin packed sepa- rately, in order that their character may be readily determined av the Avpraiser’s stores.

An Interesting Budeet of News “* the Labor Council Meeting, | Members of the Coast Seamen’s Union Olaim That Sailors Are Not Scarce. At last night's meeting of San Francisco Lavor Council an interestine letter from Euzene V. Debs to George W. Montieth, expiaining the apparant apathy of the American Railway ion to the fate of Salter D. Worden, was read. The labor | leader stated that when the American | Railway Union was merged into the Social | Democracy its finances were in a very bad condition, and that he, among other offi- cers, had worked about two years without uny salary. Further than this he bad himself assumed many of the obligations of the union. Under this condition of affairs it was naturally impossible for any financial aid to be rendered Worden | through this source, although the letter | was profuse in expre:sions of sympithy for the condemned and hopes for the best. | Detegate Furuseth of the CoastSeamen'’s | Union made a lengthy report in which he | deplored the fact that from time to time reports of a scarcity of seamen along the water front and a corresponding increase in wages have been published. | “Tnese repor:s,” he says, “are alto. | getner erroneous, and will tend to make matters worse. Men are very plentiful | just at present, and $20 per month is the | wages genera!ly offered. Once, in an oc. casion of extreme urgency, $25 was paid, but this is an isolated case, “The spreading ol these rumors will ne- cessarily have a bad effect as it will food the city with men from points along the | coast, and as men get more plentiful work will become scarcer witn the natural re. sult that we shall soon have hundreds of desperate men willing to ship at any price cffered."” Delegate Davis of the Musicians’ Union reported that no satisfactory arrangements have yet been made with the proprietors of the Zinkand and Pabst cafes, who are employing non-union musicians, and that the Ocean Beach Pavilion also employ non-union bund on Sunday afternoo A letter will be sent out from the Labor Council tc the affiliated unions calling their attention to this state of affairs and requesting them o act accordingly.

While he was District Attorney the sum of | $3062, belonging to Louis Lichtneger, an in- | sane man, was intrusted to his care, and when the money was wanted Page fled the State. He was arresied in New York, brought back and convicted ot embezzlement. When | the case got to the Supreme Court s new trial was granted on the ground that there was no showing at the trial that s demand had been made on Page for the repayment of the money. | Nosecond trial has been had, tue case having been postponed from time to time at the re. questof the defendnnt.

JEROME STILL AT THE HELM As Clerk Number 1 He Still Gives Orders to the Deputies, Collector Jackson Has Not Yet Appointed a Special Deputy. Contends That He Can Give Power of Attorney Without Asking the Department, The status of E. B. Jerome in the Cus- tom-hou-e continues to be the chief topic of discussion in Federal political circles. Interest in the matter was intensified by the publication in yesterday’'s CALL of & dispatch from THE Carv's regular corre- spondent in Wastington announcing that the Treasury Department had not been officially notified that Mr. jerome was acting as Special Deputy Collector of Cus- toms at San Francisco; that they were un- officially made acquainted with the fact last Tuesday, and that Mr. Jerome would not e allowed to act as such, his appoint- ment as special deputy by Collector Jack- son having been rejected by the depart- ment as soon as it was made, All the talk has arisen from the circum- stance that Mr. Jeroma continues to oc- cupy the desk in the Collector’s office up- stairs in the Custem-house, where he has t for several years exercising the func- tions of special deputy; that brokers and importers and clerks are sent upstairs to consult with him; that he continues to Dass upon matters connected with the service, and that his orders end instruc- tions are imrlicitly obeyed by the deputy coliectors and clerkson the plebeian floor below. With only one exception, the du- ties performed by Mr. Jerome, Clerk No. 1, class 6, are precisely the same as those which were performed bv Mr. Jerome as special deputy and power of attorney. That exception is that he does not affix his signature to papersas such special depuiy. Hence it was natural that all parties concerned should be somewhat inquisi- tive as to whether Collector Jackson aid or did not have a special deputy and power of atiorney, and also as to the identity of that official, 1f such official existed. Since the rejection by the Treasury De- partment of the Coliector's appointment of Mr. jerome, Mr. Jackson hus not made or suggested the appointment of any other person as such official, and the query rose: “Suppose that the Collector of the Port was 1o be taken suddenly ill, who would be autherized to act for him?” A (ALL reporter vesterday asked Collec- tor Jackson whether or not he had a spe- cialdeputy. He answered promptly and emphatically that he had not. I have made a contract with fate not to get sick and with myself not to be ab- sent from my post,” he added. He said further that there was no such thing in the regulations as a special dep- uty, and that by the terms of section 2630 the duties of the Collector may be vers formed in his absence by adsputy “thereto duly authorized.”” This authorization would be 2 power of aitorney granted by the Collector without any reference to the Treasury Department. In other woris the power of the Collector of Customs to endow one of his deputies with his power of attorney was individual, and one over which the Treasury Department had no cuntrol. This yower of attorney will therefore be conferred uvon one of two perions whenever the Collector shall deem neces- sary, and thoss persons are Deputy Col- lector Farley and Deputy Coilector Stan- ley Jackson. Mr. Jerome contends that he is acting simp!y as Chief Clerk, and that his in- structions and orders are given as such. The statement from Washington that Staniey Jackson, son of the Coliector, had been recognized by the department as special depuly, is beld by one or two old- timers about the Custom house to mean that Colonei Tobin has an opportunity of being reinsiated, but others equally as well informed say that Tobin could not be reinstated without the department stultifying itself. It bas rec: ntly come to light that Tobin immediately after his removal, filed a pr test with the Civil Service Commission, alleging that his diswissal from the ser- vice was a violation of the regulations, but the commission decided that the point was not weil taken and that he was as po- litically dead as a door nail, so fur the Custom house . was concerned, because the Secretary of the Treasurv had accepted the nomination of Stanley Jackson in Tobin’s place. — Divorce Granted.
