It developed that a wise divergence of opinion exists among Senators as to the practibility, from the point of view of gov rnment revenue, of reducing tkhe pr tsx upon alcohol used in the arts. Hoar of Massachusetts, who favors such & reduction, expressed the opinion that if Congress wouid lay aside political considerations, and deal with the liquor question courageously and honestly by the imposition of an ad- diiional tax of a dollar a barrel on beer, the question of Government’s revenne would take care of itself.

Constable Joe Harveston of Santa Cruz Arrested for Alleged Complicity. SANTA CRUZ, Dee. 17.—The Grand Jury created a sensation this afternoon by returning an indictment against Constabie Joe Harveston for mayvhem in connection with the Plylercase. Harveston is in the real estate and insurance business, besides be ng a detective and the champion]wrest- ler of the county. He acted as agent here for Plyler, who bad a collection agency in San Jose. According to the testimony of M. Schoedde, now on trial for the same of- tense, Plyler said that Harveston was in the room when Harris was mutilated. Piyler said yesterday to a Seauinel re- porter thiat Harveston wasinnocent; that he was not in the room, and that the man who did assist was a well known resident here who wanted to wreak vengeance on Harris for having wronged his daughter. He refused to divulge the man’s name. Harveston, according to his te.timony, was awakened by Piyler on the nightof the crime and requested to watch the ousein which Mrs. Plyler and Harris were and see what time Harris came out. Harvegston was in the rocm twice in the early part of the evening to see Mrs. Ply- ler about some business at the request of P.yler, who was supposed 10 huve re- turned to San Jose. Harveston swoutly asserts his innocence of the charge and 1s prepared to prove it. Judge Smith fixed bail at $10,000, which he will probably supply. Next Monday was set lor the ar- raignment. Plyier was brought befors the Grand Jury, but refused 1o make a statement. The Grand Jury appoinied E. L. Wil linms expert ana adjourned to February 7. The entire day in the Superior Court was occapied with argument in the Schoedde case, which wiil not reach the jury before to-morrow alternoon.

A DR, OBRIEN REPORT OF HAS BEEN -~ VINDIGATED Trustees of Preston School Pass Resolutions Ex- onerating Him, HIS RESIGNATION ACCEPTED, He Threatened to Ask for an Investigation if Such Ac- tion Was Not Taken. D. HIRSHBERG HAS THE APPOINTMENT Timothy Lee for Assistant Superin- tendent—Hints of More Trouble at the Next Meeting. The resignation of Dr. E. 8. O'Brien, Su- perintendent of the Preston School of Industry at Ione, was yesterday accepted by the Board of Trustees, at a special meeting cailed for tbe purpose, and a res- olution vindicating the Superintendent of the charges of cruelty and unnecessary severity to the inmates was passed by a vote of 2 to 1. Trustee Tyrrell cast the negative vore. David Hirschberg was appointed to the vecancy, his term to begin on January 1, 1898, at which time Dr. O'Brien’s resigxna- tion will go into effect. Timothy Lee, ex- Chief of Police of Sacramento, who was discharged from the position by Dr. 0'Brien, was re-appointed. The board met iu the rooms of Governor Budd, at the Palace Hotel, vesterday ai- ternoon. The Governor and Messrs. Pres- ton, Maddox and Tyrrell were present, as was also Dr. O'Brien and B. T. K. Preston, ibe secretary of the board. Chairman Preston cailed the meeting to order and asked the secretary to read Dr. O’Brien’s resignation, which had beon in possession of the board for some ume. It was dated December 4, 1597, and requested that it take effect at the regular meeting in January. Dr. Tyrrell, between whom and Dr. O’Brien there exists feelings of hostility, moved thal the resignation be accepted, to take effect immediately. Dr. O'Brien asked the privilege of ad- dressing the board. He siatea that he deemed it would be necessary for the interests of himself and the school that his resiznation go into effect in January. Youare aware,” said he, “that it is necessary that I shouid make an inven- iory of Lhe property 50 as to turn it over tomy successor in the proper way. I would also like to show the rew suparin- tendent about the place. 1 think it will be necessary for me to be ihere to show him around and 1 believe that January 1 would be the proper time for my resigna- tion to taxe place.” Mr. Maddox moved thai the resigna- tion be accepted to take place on January 1, 1898, and the motion was carricd unan- imously. Cbairman Preston then offered the fol- lowing resolutio WIHERE. O'Brien bas filed with this busra nation as superintendent of tne Preston School of Industry, 10 take ef- fect on January 1, 1898; and whereas, serious charges have been uently imade against his admivistration, king brutal and un- necessarily severe punisument of inmates: and waeréas, the trustees sre familiar with the fects and circumsiances of his treatment of th id iumates; iheretore, Resolved, That the resignation of Dr. E be and the seme i hereby accepie: ou January 1, 1895, esoived, That in accepting tue resignation Lereby express our confident beiief that en greatly ex- we the reporis referred 1o have sggerated, and that the animosity with whicn suid reports have been given publicity have doue a greet injustice to the adminisiration of Dr. O’ Briea. I wish to vote no,” said Dr. Tyrrell. The other trustees voted 1n ihe affirma- tive, and then the programme whicn bhad been arranged some time ago was carried out. David Hirshberg was appointed to fill the vacancy, and he then reappointed Timotby Lee as assistant superintendent. It was expected that there would be a lively time at the meeting, as Dr. O'Brien had stated that he would not resign unless the trustees vindicated him of the charges of crueity wh.ch bad been made against bim by some of the newspapers. There was notning conditional in the resigna- tion, but Dr. O'Brien had written personal leiters to Messrs. Preston, Maddox and Governor Budd in which he siated that if he was not cleared of those charges he would demand an investigation. This piaced the Governor in a peculiar position, as it is stated that an investga- 1ion i8 the one thing o be avoided, for the superintendent has stated that he had some cards up his sleeve which, if played, woula unfold some things which the a ministration would not care to haveaired. Dr. O’Brien aiso intimated that Trustee Tyrrell, who was placed ou the board to fill a vacancy, would probably be called upon 10 resign, as his appointment is said to have been contingent upon the prom- 1se thut he won!d do <o when asked. Jt is said that the resignaiion of Dr. Tyrrell was the subject of a conversation between Mr. Maddox and Governor Budd yesterday morning. The Governor took occasion to make some remarks anent the selection of D.via Hirsnberg as superintendent and deniea the report that he had offered nim the ap- pointment. He said he had been asked by one of the irustees 1o suggest a man who would make a good officer anda he had mentiored Hirshberg. He had not seen ihe other trusiees about the matter. Dr. O’Brien intimates that there will be trovble at ti.e next meeting of the boara, which takes piace in January, as it is thought likely that if Trustes Tyrreil does not resign charges will be brought against him. He also hinted that an investigation into the shortages of the accounts of ex- Becretary H. R. Bernard would be made. Dr. O'Brien claims that those shoriages are xreater than the inve-tigat:ons made by the expert show. He has a receipt from Mr. Bernard for $100, which the superintendent turned over to him for the contingent fund, and of which Le claims there is no record. The indications at there will be a lively meeting of the board. The new superintendent has been granted u three week's leave of absencs in January in order that he might visit the reiormatories of New York, Michigan and other States.
