12 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22 1897. FIRST MEETING OF THE COMMITTEE WHICH MAY BRING BACK TO THE CITY THE LAND FOR THE CITY HALL PARK. UBSTANTIALsteps were taken yes- terday by a number of representa- tive citizens to form a permanent society whose mission shall be to advocate a City Hall Paik and devise ways and means of obtaining for the city the lots originally owned by it fronting on Mar- ket street. The meeting was an enthusiastic one, and those present expressed themselves in {avor of active work until the end in view is accomplished. A permanent organiza- tion was effected, with Mayer Phelan as chairman. Claus Spreckels and Irving M. Scott, who were first nominated for the on, declined on the ground that their ess interests would prevent them from giving the matter the time they thou:ht it ought to bave. Bothexpressea regret that they were not able to serve, but said they were fully in accord with the purposes of the organizat The committee which met appointed a tew days ago by the Mayor to work aiong the lines indicated b CarL. The position of THE CALL was dorsed, and the plans advocated by well- known citizens in its columns were put in motion. Tbe committee:appointed pursu- suant to those plans held its fir: S at noon vesterday. The follow! tended: Mayor J ‘mes D. Phelan, Irv M. Scott, " W. Doar- mann, Dr. W. F. McNutt, L M. Bunker, R. J. Tob: The committee met atthe Mayor's office and its work was earnest and bu-iness- like from the outset. Those who deliber- ated on the question as to the city’s right 10 esthetic surroundings for its cap:tol building represented =21l shades of busi- ness interests, but there was a unanimous sentiment that it had been a blunder to v ol o sell the lots, and that there should be an tain of the Supervisors’ power to add to effort made to get them back before itis too late. As showing the earnestness of the men named on the committee, all were present but E. A. Denicke, who sent his regrets and said that his heart was fully in the movement for th: bettering of the city in the way under deliberation. He was kept 3 ome important business. The Mayor called the meeting to order by reading Suje:visor Devany’s resolu- tion giving official sanction to the move- ment. He stated he was highly pleased that the committeemen had so promptly responded. Immediately after the May- or's remarks J. B. Reinstein, the origi- nator of the association, moved that the Mayor act as chairman. The motion was cairied. H. H. Hobbs and Charles O. Burton, of the Grand Jury, were present to aid the committee in any way they could con- cerning the sta'e of the City Hall litiga- tion, iuvolving the question of securing the lots again. Mr. Burton stated that the Grand Jury haa collected data which would be usetul, and us be and Foreman Hobbs were the custoaians of this information he said the only wav it could be used by the commit- tee would be to comply wiin the request of the Grand Jury and admit himself and Mr. Hobbs as members. his view was acceotable to the mem- bers of the committee and Messrs. Hobbs and Burton were added to the association. Regent Reinstein favored delay until the members could consult on a line of policy, as the question was one of muca im- pertance. F. W. Dohrmann agreed with Regent Reinstein. Irving M. Scott was not cer- the present committee, under the lan- guage of the Uevanv resolution. L. R. Ellert thought the committee had power to add to its numberif it saw fit. The Su- vervisors, he contended, ciaimed nothing more than was expressed in the language of the resoiution. The question naving been disposed of, W. M. Bunker offered a reso!ution declar- ing “It be the sense of this meeting that itisdesirable that a park be created in front of the City Hall.” The resolution was seconded by Mr. Scott and was unonimously adopted. Mr. Scott expressed as uis opinion that it would be proper, before any further busi- ness, to go into permanent organization. Claus Spreckels favored the iaea, while Regent Reinstein held there should be a delay and consultation. A. B. Maguire favored organization. Then Mr. Scott moved that the associa- tion be permanently orzanized and his motion was carried. He then nominated Ciaus Spreckels as chairman. Several members seconaed the nomina- tion, but Mr. Spreckels declined on the ground of pressure of busines:. He said: +'I have more business than I can attend to. It wou!d be impo:sible for me to give my time—or any time, to presiding over your deliberations. Yet I am with this movement ana will attend as many of your meetings as I can. I consider thisis very important, and it will require the strict atiention of the men entrusted in its consummation. “Therefore, geatlemen, I must decline— positively so—please e se me.” Notwithstanding this positive but polite declination, several memb:rs insisted on having the use of his name as chairman of the association, but he declined even this. . Irving M. Scott was suggested, but he, tco, declined, becauss too busy. R. J. Tobin, secretary of the Hibernia Savings Bank, placed Mayor Phelan in nomination, and, although his Honor ai first declined the position, he finally vielded and was elected, with Irving M. Scott as vice-president and C. O. Burton as secretar: In furnishing information to the asso- ciation, Secretary Burton produced the excerpt of the Grand Jury's report, which showed that the entire property from Jones to Larkin street is assesed at $2,150,- 480, with $185.750 addad for improve- ments, making 30 as tke total. These figures give a basis as to what the entire property may be valued at when the time arrives. The figure is about $3 000,000, as estimated by lrving M. Scott. Mr. Burton had another plan prepared embracing the conversion of the lots from a line on Leavenworth sireet to Larkin, which he said would reduce the esti- mated value one-third, but the associ- atton seemed unfavorsble to anything other than an unobstructed view of the ball from Jones to Larkin streets. R. J. Tobin suggested that the diagram of the ground as published in THe CaLL a few days ago be reproduced, together with other data now at hand, for the informa- tion of the association at the next meet- ng. At this juncture Mayor Phelan invited the members 1o Iuncheon, as they had forfeited that luxury in the interest of the citv. The invitation was accepted, and the association adjourned until next Thursday at 2 7. M.

Now anybudy who followed that case closely is as posifive as I am that Bell never kiiled Jacobson. The story of the murder which, I believe to be true, was cuir:nt taik, buc the authorities never permitted it to come out in Bell’s trial and the murderer has never been definitely known. “The daylight murder of Miss Harring- ton, the butchery of Mrs. Langield by Blanther, who not away, and the Weare murder, followed in rapid succession, and all are monuments to the incapacity of the decective force. “*These are a few of the cases I can re- call that have never been satisfactorily soived vy the poiice and detectives, to say notkbing of the ‘Little Pete’ and other Chinatown murders, which, 1 suppose, do not realiy count with the pclice, but which demand investigation just as much as crimes am ng the The killing of the Fourth--treet saloon-keeper about LWo vears ago is another erime that has never beex run dowa. the calendar, and murderers are not the only criminals who escape punishment. Watch the newspapers and see how many burglaries are reported. It is alow esti- Inate to say that not more than three out of every ten that are reported 1o the po- lice ever come to lisht. I know this 1o be true, ana 1 know that form of crime pre. vails in this city to an alarming estent, and is sieadily on the increase. When a Why, take the records of violent deaths for that period andt judge for yourself whether the upper office has covered itself with glory. Go back to the Bsnhayon burglary is committed 1t is reported to the police by the victim, and the first thing is # warning to him not to say anything, for if the affair gets into the papers the thieves will gel away. The police ‘°"°l But marder is not the only crime on | d. work, ana if they succeed in capturing the criminal the capture is given to the papers, but if they fail, as is too often the case, the papers and public never hear } of it. *So it is with other crimes. It is onl when the offender is caught that the pu pers are permitied to get hold of the mat- ter, except in murders which cannot be concealed, and the loug listof these where | the murderers have escaped show the in- efficiency of tne city’s detective force. *‘I do not mean to say that there are no good men on the ‘upper office’ force. De- | tectives Bee and Harper are as good men as can be found any where, but it is seldom one hears of them. Iknow, however, that it is those two who lay the wires in all the big cases, and then others go out and make the capture, gaining all the glory, while Bee and Harper are kept in the background. “The 1wo best men that were ever con- nected with the department were Cap:ain Stone anc Bob Hogan, but what was their fate? Stone was retired while he was still in his prime, and Bob Hogan has been snelved in the District Attorney’s office. No better man ever ran down a criminal than Hogan, but because he wouid not yield in his opinion to that of his superiors be was put out of harm's way. Tne first trouble that 1 know of was over the Ben- hayon case. Hogan would not surrender his belief that it was a murder, while Lees declared it was a suicide. Aiter that the two never got along well together, and at the first opportunity Hogan was taken off regular work. “Idonot say thatall the menon the deteciive force are incompetent, but it is ceriain tha:some of them are, and the de- partment needs reorganizing badly. Itis noi necessary 10 go outside of the Poiice | Depariment” for good men, for there are far better men patrolling beats thuan are empioyed on delective work and nobody knows that better than Chief Lees himself(, “The whole trouble is that the ;olice rely almost wholly on ‘stool pigeons’ to effect a capture, and that method is obso- lete. Criminals nave progressed in their pro'essions the same as tho.e foilowing more legitimate cailings have, and while tire stocl pigeon system was necessary forty years ago, when Chief Lees began his work, 1t is entirely out of date now. “Let me explain ‘the method under which the police work. Suppose a rob- has been committed on the Barbary | . The patrolmen in that district are notified and begin to make inquiries. They know all the peity criminals, many of whom they have befriended to the ex- tent of b-ing lenient with them, and these criminals are told to locate the robber, If they succeed—which is not often now— the patrolman notifies Lis Captain, the upver office is informed and a detective is sent out to make (he arrest and receive the credit. But robbers, burglars and their kind are not hangingaround saloons nowadays, bragging about what they were roing to door uad done, as 1n the old ays, and in consequence the days of the stool-pigeon are over. “One thing that has aiwavs militated against the efficiency of the detective force has been the danger of treading on some favorite of a superior officer. This has always been the case, and until it is overcome and younger and mcre fearless and eflicient blood injected into the de- partment you need look for no improve- ment. Chief Lees has been a splendid detective offiver in his day, but times and the methods of criminals have chanzed wonderfully, and 1t needs a younger man toconduct the department, in my opinion, than the present head.” h l FOR CHARTER - MAKERS. |A Committee Appointed to Se- lect a List of Eligible Freeholders.

One of the clearest-headed penologists in this State is W. H. Mills, whose early phrenological studies and ministerial am- bitions led him to investigate sin and crime in all their forms. He has definite ideas concerning San Quentin, which he aeclares to be a breeding-place for crinfin- als. His views are in conformity with advanced holdings on biology, and are a compromisz between the harsh methods of the N achusetts system Quentin murderers. Speaking of the subject yesterday »Mr, Milis satd: I have given the subject a great deal of thought, as I was chairman of the Penological Commission some years ago. It isalmost useless to talk of doing | anything under the present system, and it is almost impossible to get rid of it so long as politicians rule with absolute power. Politicians appoint the guards and others in office at the prisons. They get pardons for their friends and all this militates against any real reform. You NEW 7TO0-DAY—DRY GOODS.

Waiving all tnese things, let us see why the San Quen- tin system is vile, and why the Calitornia prisons are merely recreation places for impounding criminals. **At the outset it must be understood that punishment is a part of natare's plan.

This is why the prisons of nearly all new coun- tries are schools of crime. In this Siate we have two great institutions where men graduate—the State University. whicn turns out scholars, and San Quentin, which gradnates criminals. The handi- work of each is apparent. Most of the crimes now being committed in this State are by men who have served terms in San Quentin, “There should be a scientific system in Yvogue, something like the famous Craw- ford plan. At San Quentin all s caprice, due largely to chaos and biind chance. There is not any rational system of re. wards and punishment. It is not the ‘Warden’s faulit.”” Under the Crawfora system, which Mr. Mills indorses, the convicts pass under l i 1 | | | Market and Jones Strets. ber of society, he is first taught that there is a strong power aside from himself whose decrees he must obey. To this end he is put in solitary confinement for a limjted period, which may be greatly shortened by good conduct. Fe must meditate alone until he throws aside his own will and places himself under the reign of law. The second stage of the reformatory process allows the convict to spesk to his asso.iates, It gives bim more liberties and more rules of conduct to obey. He is tauczht to respect the 1ights of his feliows and to obey the more complex rules of the prison. In the third stage the convict is allowed to do work with his asscciates—as on a farm or in the jute-miil. The fourth stage allows him out on parole, and 1n the fiftn he is made a ticket-ol-leave man. Under this system good prisoners are soon discoverea and auickly promoted, while evil-minded ones are soon relegated back to the more punitive stages of pua- | isiiment, AtSan Quentin there is no system of | rewards worthy of the name. Murderers condemned to die are allowed special privileges, while all grades of yrisoners | are clussed together like so many dogs in a pound without any reference to their degree of refor.aation. With a mor: rational system of rewards meu not essentially eriminal by nature are soon promoted beyond the pervert class. “It is well known to all students of crime,” says Mr. Mills, *‘that there are persons in all prisons in whose lives the crimes for which they are being punished are exceptional and accidental. Morally and spiritually they are not criminals, There should be some =uch system as that organized by Captuin Crawiord whereby this class is soon discovered. If I were Governor to-morrow I wouli find who th» men are that deserve clemency. I think there are probably 100 men in San Qu=ntin who have been punished to the point of reformation. They would commit no further crimes and society would profit by their liberation. “There are many men who have com- mitted some such crime as embezzlement or forgerv. Their friends have squared the matter and the men have practically been frightened inio good citizenship, Well, there are such men in the prisons at all umes.
