4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1897. KICKED AND BEATEN BY TWOROUGHY Trustee Kilgarif of Sau- salito Waylaid and Assaulted. AFFRAY ON A DARK STREET. Leader in the War Against the Gamblers Roughly Handled. MARSHAL CREED MAKES ANOTHER RAID. Twenty Bettors on the Races Ar- rested at the Harrlson Poolroom. Spectal Dispatch to THE CALL SAUSALITO, CarL., Oct. 13.—There bhas been no end of excitement in Sausalito last night and to-day. J. M. Kilgarif, the Town Trustee who has led the battle against the poolrooms 1n the meetings of the Council, was waylaid last night while he was on his way home and assaulted. To-day Marsbal Creed made a numbér of raids on Harrison’s poolroom and cap- tured twenty players and principals and brought them before the Recorder. Since the Trustees passed the last ordi- nance against pool-selling there has been trouble, and it carae to a climax last night when Kilgarif was attacked and beaten. No one knows who assaulted the Trustee, but that the motive was revenge for his fighting the poolrooms no one doubts. Kilgarif was down-town last night on official business. His purpose was to in- spect the new fire alarm system. After this was completed he visited a couple of resorts on the water front, and at about 10 o’clock started for his home on the hill. The road to his residence passes the Town Hall, and just above this point i: is ex- tremely dark. Kilgan! was walkingalong slowly, when suddenly, just as he reached the darkest spot on the road, two men jumped out and struck at him. One of the blows landed on the back of his head. ==The assailants flew at the Trustee like tigers and commenced to beat him. They rained blow after blow upon him and then kicked him. Kilgarif fought back and called londly for help. Finally he broke away from his assailants and rushed down the road, calling for assist- ance. His cries attracted attention, and the people on the water front who ru<hed out to the street saw him coming down the road at full speed, minus his hat. tie was out of breath and excited, but be- tween his gasps he told the storv of the assault, lamenting all the while that he had not his revolver with him at the time. The men who assaultad the Trustee jumped the fence and escaped without leaving a clew to their identity. Kilgarit tound his hatat the scene of the affray, where he had Jost it in the schuffle. When seen to-night by THE CALL corre- spondent, garif told the story of the attack upon him in a few words. Said he: “I was returning home shortly after 10 o'clock. When neer the Town Hall two toughs attacked me and atlemvpted to beat me. I suppose it is because of the poolroom questions, The loafers on the water front believe that the whole town wants these resorts to run. I was not badly hurt.” Among those in the town who are in favor of the poolrooms running the gen- garif was made by some hot-headed fel- lows who could not control themselves. That Kilgarif is thoroughly detested by the poolroom followers is plainly evident. The excitement over the as-ault on the Town Trustee had not subsided to-day be- fore Marshal Creed began to make whole- sale arrests at Harrison’s poolroom. Yes- terday he arrested ten players and princi- vals and to-day he placed twenty more under the ban. He took his time about it, and the ar- rests were made at various times during the day. He would descend upon the poolroom, walk away with six or seven men, lead them to the Recorder’s court and then go back for others. Not the slightest attempt was made to interfere with Creed, and the apprehended men only smile and say that the laws of the town are invalid, and consequently they are in no danger of conviction. Those taken into custody to-daay by Creed gave the following names: Eugene McClennan, J. H. Daniels, Frank Daaly, Joseph Lynch, Joseph Solari, Peter Burns, C. F. Knipple, Leonard Hearst, Benjamin Burr, F. P. Wardell, J. Bradley, Sam Ja- cobs, J. W. Couroy, A, Powell, Robert Garnett, John Green. Benjamin Holladay, Peter Sankey, Benjamin Reilly and James Winstow. The gamblers were hustled before Re- corder Prror,who released them on bonds supplied b Thomas, and - aggregating $2000. The cases were set for Saturday at 10 o’clock. The men no sooner leit court than they hurried back to the game and piayed on 2s 'hough nothing had happened. No arrests are to be made to-morrow. Creed has carried out the orders of the Town Trustees and now thirty men are under arrest for gambling. The cases of the first two come up before Recorder Pryor to-moriow. As the men have de- manded jury trials, almost every citigen in the town has been served with a notice 1o be on hand in the morning 10 be ex- amined as to his qualification to act us a juror. The thirty arrests already made have cost in the neighborhood ot $600, and the laxpayers are cOramencing 10 remon- strate. Dissati-faction is expressed on every side and many say that ine indis- criminate arresis are not only costly, but cannot possibly amount to anything. The trustees will convene in special ses- sion to-morrow night and the iveliest kind of a meeting 1s in store. Tue pool- men are confident that they cannot be convicted and say that it is not possible to find enough jurymen to try the cases. A Protesting Meeting.

Mineralogist Cooper Stops All| Field Work for Two Years to Make Maps. o] This Revolution in a State Imstitu- tion Attracts the Attention of Mining Men. In its current issue the Mining and olutionary policy which State Mineralo- gist Cooper recently estatlished in the | administration of the Mining Bureau, and both the atiack and the present adminis- | tration of the bureau are being much dis- | cussed among mining men. | This policy, as was recently exclusively described in Tue CAvry, consists in the | abandonment of the field work, which has | always been done by five or six men sup- | posed to be competent experts, who vis- ited each mineral region and most of the mines, noting the important features of mining deveiopment and compiling ma- terial, which was published in a biennial | report along with monographs on special | mining subjects and general statistics. Mr. Cooper decided to discontinue all | field work except that of Mr. Watts in the | oil regiors and to devote the energies of | the bureau for the two years to the prep- aration of a series of mining, topographi- cal and geological maps of the mining counties and a register of mines, which would describe in tabular form all th: mines, mills, ew., of the State. His judgment was that this would be of more practical benefit to the mining counties than the o.d-siyle reports. He proposes to get the county boards of Supervisors to pay for the printing of the maps af er they have been compiied and litho- | graphed, and each county map is to be revisea by the County Surveyor or a special deputy. Whether or not the Mining Bureau will be discussed at the Calilornia Miners' As- sociastion next week is uncertain, but vention may be given to other matiers entirely. The Mining and Scientific Press, however, jumps on Mr. Cooper’s maps “with botu feet,”” aud declares that the last bill, aporopriating $50,000 for the sup: port of the Mining Bureau for two years, enacted the usual requirement, that at least 50 per cent of the appropriation snould be expended in the field work, which Mr. Cooper has abandoned for two vears.

James G. Bennett, the machinist, who cut hisdivorced wife's throat at 14 McAl- | lister atreet last Saturday morning and then cut his own, escaped fiom the Re- ceiving Hospital about 11 o’clock last | uight. A charge of assault to murler was| booked against Bennett and a policeman has been stationed in the male ward of the hospital to lovk after him, Policeman Fred Smith was in charpe of Bennett last night and he hcppened to leave the male ward for a few minutes. Bennett was apparently asieep, but as soon as Smith left the ward he got out of bed, opened the window close to his cot | and step ped out on to the lawan. He had a coat and vest and trousers on, but was bareheaded and barefooted. Al- though there is aiways a lot of peopie passing and repassing in that vicinity, no one seemed to notice Bennett, and bis es- cape was not discovered until Smith re- turned to the ward and he saw the empty cot and the open window. Smith immediately notified the Central police station, and the different stations wore notified by telephone to keep a look- out for him. An otficer was detailed to keep guara at 14 McAllister street, as Mra, Bennet was removed there from the hos- pital Monday, but 1t was only ye: rday that Bennett knew she haa left. Another officer wasdezailed 10 wateh the bouse of Bennett’s brother-in-law at 153514 Howard sireet as it was thought he mignt go there. Bennettrepeatedly expressed regret that he had not killed his wifeand nimself, and while she was in the hospital he was always planning to see her, it was thought to make an attempt to finish the job his mind was breodinz upon. e AN OLD SOLDIER.

Cornwall's Enterprises on Puget Sound in Palmy Days. Negotiations for thy sale of the Black | Diamond coal mines arein progress. A British syndicate has a cuvetous eye on the property and has made an offer of $1,000,000 spot cash for it. Those who are acquainted with the affairs of the com- | pany operating the mines say the deal wili be consummated within thirty days. The mines are owned entirely by Cali- | forniz millionaires, and for that reason | the local financial world is somewhat | stirred up over the prospective transfer of | | the property to a foreign syndicate. Prac- | tically the coal interests are owned by P. | B. Cornwali, D. O. Mills, J. B. Haggin, Lioyd Tevis and Alvinza Hayward.

Cornwall and his Black Diamond ssso- ciastes possessed S000 acres of land upon | which the greater portion of the luwn| was being built. They were ambitious to | build a city, and they succeeded in doing | so, though it is rumored at the cost of | some of the profits of the coal mines.
