THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 189S. DANGER SIGNALS | HOISTED TOO SOON Rainfall for Remaining Months of the Secason May Replen- ish Spring Valley Supply. No Good Reason Advanced for an Incrcase of Water Rates— tained by Consumers. The rainfall of the season to date, according to the measurement of the United: Btates Weather Bureau in San Francisgo is 6.85 inches, or fifteen hun- | dredths of an inch below six inches. Two-thirds of the month of February | and the months of March and April | vet remain. Copious rains may yet come to replenish the reservoifa of the Spring Valley ‘Water Works. In 1876 the rainfall for the month of March was five and one-half inches; March, | 1879, the quantity was 8.75 inches; the same month of 1884, the rain measured 8.24 inches; in March, 1 7.70 inches, and in March, 1897, 4.56 inches. During the month of April, 1880, the rainfall, according to the records in the Government office in this city, was a fraction over ten inches; in April, 1884, the rain measured 6.33 inches; during the same month in the year 1886 the record was 5.20 inches. In April, 1896, the quantity of rain was 5.15. The foregoing figures are cited to show that the Spring Valley people are crying out the dangers of a water famine without just cause for appre- hension. The Mayor and Supervisors of San Francisco have been assured frequently by Herman Schussler of the Spring Valley Water Works that the comple- tion of the extensive Crystal Springs reservoir provided storage facilities for & supply of water sufficient to meet the requirements of the city for three years The old notfon that the fi E gon is immediately or succ lowed by two or more dry ploded by the records o T The fall, as contained in the table here nfall. ngy is calculated for the twelve hs beginning with and including TR RS 1896-97.... Loz The Spring Valley Water Works ex- pects, obv to continue for an in- f time the system long lished of compelling the con- of water to provide the corpo- ration with revenue sufficient to pay 6 38 per cent interest on the cost of the| system as calculated by the company self. The valuation, according to the company’s estimate, has now increased until it approximates $24,000,000. When new mains are put in to replace old pipe the amount expended is charged to construction aceount and is included in the valuation. Land which cost ac- tually $1,000,000 is valued .at $4,000,000. Pumping plants, new reservoirs and everything added to the system are figured up and added tp the valuation. If the consumers were asked to pay 6 per cent on the actual value of the works the burden would not be too great, but 6 per that has been bought and worn out, to- gether with 6 per cent on everything purchased new to replace old material, is an enormous drain on the commu- nity. Conservative men of large affairs in the commercial world estimate that the sum of $10,000,000 would bring from the mountains to San Francisco an abun- dant and never-failing supply of pure, fresh water. the consumers ought not to be obliged cent on everything | As a matter of justice, | Burden Now Sus= |to pay a sum greater in the aggregate | than 6 per cent on an’investment of | $10,000,000. The rates should be re- | duced rather than Increased. The extensive Calaveras watershed bought by the company to re- enforce the supply of the peninsular catchment area. It is time now for the | company to utilize its possessions in that direction, if the president of the | company is correct in his surmise that the existing reservoirs may not be ade- quate. ; A short time ago the company issued 7000 additional shares of stock, from | | which nearly $700,000 was realized. Per- haps some of this money went into the new building and should be accounted for to consumers in profits derived from rents. Stock representing $14,000,- 000 and bonds approximating $10,000,000 have been issued by the corporation.

Investigation Into the Affair by the | United States Inspectors of Steam Vessels. The United States Inspectors of Local | Foreign Steam Vessels began yes- terday an investigation into the causes of the collision which took place between the ferry steamers Garden City and the Piedmont opposite Goat island on Febru- ary 3. Captain J. T. Jones of the Piedmont testified that the fog was very thick, and that when he got opposite Goat Island he heard the whistles of ;two different steamers, one off port and the other off the starboard side. He slowed up the Piedmont and_ stopped twice and then started to back. At the moment of the collisfon his vessel was actually going backward. He did not catch sight of the | Garden City through the fog until about | five seconds before she struck. Captain W. Frederickson of the Garden City sald that he left the foot of Broad- way, Oakland, about fifteen or sixteen minutes late. Going down the creek to- ward the bay he made up a little of the lost time and arrived at the mouth of the creek off the south jetty about ten minutes late. Then he ran under a slow bell with the fog whistles blowing. Wt near the scene of the collislon h whistles blowing off the starboard bow, | but he could not locate the sounds. He | signaled to stop and one minute later rang the bell to back. Then he rang to stop backing, and then ve the signal to back agaln. At the time of the colli- sion the wheels were revolving back- ward, but the vessel was still goingahead { with momentum. heard the back- ing signal on the other boat just before the collision. | Several other witnesses were examined as to the manner of working the engines and the time that elapsed between the signals. The investigation will be re- sumed to-day. e — Champagne Imports in 1897. Custom-house statistics show that 72,775 cases of G. H.

Wants Him Ind'cted for False Arrest and Malicious Prosecution. Judge Campbell Refuses to Issue the ‘Warrant, and Dodson Will Go to the Grand Jury. Beverly Dodson, the colored street contractor, is after the scalp of Justice of the Peace Carroll, and he says he is determined to have satisfaction for the indlgnity of having been arrested on the complaint of the Justice for per- Jury. On January 14 the Justice and Dodson had a violent altercation in the corridor outside the Jus- tice’s courtroom over a case in which Dodson was interested. Dod- son had sworn to an affidavit asking for a change of venue on the ground of | an alleged remark the Justice had made, and this led to the trouble. After the altercation the Justice swore to a complaint in Judge Camp- bell’s court for the arrest of Dodson on the charge of perjury in swearing to statements in the affidavit for a change of venue which not to be true. Dodson was arrested that night and the case was continued from time to time, till on January 27 it was dismissed | by Judge Campbell. Since then Dodson has been nursing his wrath against the Justice, and yes- | he, accompanied by his attor- | ney, waited upon Judge Campbell and asked for a warrant for the arrest of | Justice Carroll on the charge of false arrest and malicious prosecution. He said that not only had the Justice sub- jected him té the indignity of being ar- rested but had used language toward him in the hall which was insulting in the extreme, and had threatened to break his jaw. The issuance of the talked over and finally Judge Campbell refused to be a party to it, telling Dod- | son he had his recourse in the civil courts for a sult for damages if he felt that he had been injured in his reputa- tion and character. Dodson pleaded hard for the war- rant, but the Judge Dodson said that he would try the other Judges, and if unsuccessful he would take the matter before the Grand Jury and get an indictment if possible. He says that he has plenty of witnesses to prove the language which the Justice used toward him and which has hurt his feelings more than anything else. —— e————— Do not fail to examine Scribner’s ‘“His- tory of the United States” as offered by The Call at over 40 per cent discount from the regular price to introduce the | work.

The Men Confined in the City Prison Receive More Food. The story in Monday's Call about the apparent attempt to starve the prisoners confined in cell 27 in the City Prison has aroused the Yesterday he sent for Captain Robinson, who has charge of the prison, and se- verely reprimanded him for not giving | the prisoners sufficient to eat. Subse- quently Robinson had the prisoners who complained about him sizn a paper ad- dressed to the Chief of Police exculpating him from all blame. In it they accuse the cook, who is also a prisoner, of de- privinz them of sufficient food. Yesterday the prisoners were agrecably surprised when they received double ra- tions and were toid if they wanted mora to at once notify Captain Robinson. = Eml e If the lead in your pencil is poor, try the famous *“Koh-I-Noor.” : 4 R R R R R S S S S S A A S A A AR RS PR S AR a oo i ADVERTISEMENTS. e e e e e e s e e e e e e e e e e the workings of our underwear factory— a free show in our windows for the balance of this week of two machines brought from our factory for this occasion. | With the only factoru of this kind on the Pacific Coast we manufacture all weights of Woolen Underwear, Sweaters, Leggins, Hosiery, Hoods, Mittens, Skirts, Flannel Bloomers, Mufflers, Cardigan Jackets, from the lightest gauze to the heaviest Klondike wear.

Knox De- clares His Innocence of the Crime. Says He Did Not Tell the Prisoner to Hire a Team. Makes a Signed Statement De- nying Complicity With ‘Worden. RELATIVES ARE TO BLAME. Insenity Commissioners Visit Wor- in His Cell at Folsom. den The first I saw of S. D. Worden on the morning of his return from Chi- cago was when I met him at John Hurley's cigar store, -at the corner of | Seventh and J streets. He was full of | whisky at the time and very “loud- mouthed” about what “he” was going | to do. We told him he must not be| talking like that, for it was very easy to get himself into trouble, but he al- | ways replied, “I am the grand organ- izer for the Pacific Coast and I will talk and do just as I d——d please,” and it was none of our business. We kept him as quiet as we could for | a few days; then he said he was going | down the road to Stockton to organize. | He was gone several days, and the first | 1 heard anything about him was when | he tclephoned to me that he had forty- five or fifty cattle and asked what he should do with them. I supposed he did have cattle, as the farmers were donat- ing meat and vegetables for our A. R. U. restaurant. I told him to| | bring them to Sacramento by boat and I would pay the charges. So that even- ing when the boat was due some of the boys went to the landing to help him I did not hear | but he did not come. | from him until morning, about 7:30 or | 8 o'clock. I was at breakfast at my | home in Broderick when he came in | and told me he had brought up an en- gine and. Pullman sleeper . with forty-five or fifty men. I asked him | if that was what he called cattle, and he latighed one of his demoniacal laughs | and said “Yes.” I told him he hadn't | ought to have done whart he did, and he | told me I didn't know my business as | well-as he did. While on his Stockton | trip he signed my name to a check on | the D. O. Mills Bank for $5 and gave ‘ it to a hotel man, I think at Galt. Of | course when it was taken to the bank | he was told I had nothing there, so he brought the check to me and I told him | I had never given Worden or any one else authority to sign my name in that manner, but rather than see him lose his money I would pay it. Worden was drunk when he came to my house in the morning. After 1 had finished breakfast Mr. | Parker, Worden and myself started for ‘LSacramemo, and when we got up to the bridge Worden said a man had | been shot down the river a ways and he was going down, so he went and Parker and I went on over town. Worden came up to our room some time before noon and stayed a few min- utes and went out again. He was still drunk. That is the last time I saw him until we returned from lunch, about | 1:30 p. m. Then we found him lying | on the bed asleep with his shoes off. | We got him up and he put on his shoes and said he was going to get a | drink, but he hadn’t been gone but a short time when he returned with a boy, saying, “Here is a boy with a bill.” I looked at the bill and saw it was for a team, so I paid it, because I had given an order to Wheeler to go to Brighton or near there to Mr. Bowles’ ranch to get vegetables for our restaurant, and supposed that was where the team had been. When Worden says in his statement it was by my order the team or men went where he claims they did he tells a downright lie. He says we deserted him during his tgial; that is not true. We had evidence that we wanted his brother to use, but he would not, and it appeared to me as though he did not care much whether his brother was convicted or not. In conclusion I wish to say that neither Worden nor any one else was ever used as a tool for the committee, and if any damage was done it was done without our knowledge or con- sent. He has made several so-called confessions, but he never tried to im- plicate the committee before, and it is my opinion that he has been made to do it now by his brother, hoping to get some one into trouble. I believe Wor- den ought to be in the asylum instead of prison. HARRY A. KNOX. This {s the answer Knox makes in defense and explanation of Worden's accusation that he was the man who instructed him to hire the buggy the day of the fatal train wreck. In not a single line of the signed statement is there a word which could be misconstrued as an acknowledg- ment of the writer's participation in the crime for which Worden is to suf- fer the death penalty as the sole perpe- | trator. Knox, although accused directly by ‘Worden as the ringleader who super- intended the conspiracy, seems to for- give the condemned murderer for his grave accusation by doing everything in his power to establish his innocence. He went to the trouble a short time ago to draw up a Detition, signed by the employes of the Sutro Railway Company, in which he pleaded to the Governor of the State for the admin- | his first trial. den was railroaded to prison was be- cause he was a thorn in the side of his family, and owing to this fact they would stop at nothing to get him out of the way. “I never thought Worden committed the crime, and I am of the same opin- ion yet,” said Knox. “I think that his own family is as much to blame for his present condition as any prosecutor that stood on the witness-stand agalnst him. They seemed to have been over anxious to get him out of the way as he was a foolish, eccentric and unreliable sort of a fellow and they were afraid that his battling about the world on his own responsibility would involve the family in trouble and pos- sible disgrace. I think that if he had been sentenced to life imprisonment instead of td death on the gallows they would never have lifted a hand to shield him from the crime of which he is now charged. “The prosecution went a little too far and a trifle beyond their expecta- tions,” resumed Knox, ‘‘and whereas they would like to see him behind prison bars for the rest of his life still they do not want his blood upon their heads, as they well know that this will be the case, as they were instrumental in getting him into the clutches of the law.” Knox, upon being asked his ideas as to who the real perpetrator of the crime was, replied that he hadn’t the remotest conception, as he had abso- lutely no participation in committing it and consequently would not give an opinfon, as the public would think that he was one of the men who were at the trestle the time of the wreck. “I will say nothing further than what is stated in the above letter, and unless this statement be satisfactory to those who insist on further information they will have to construct an interview from their own imaginations, as I re- fuse to glve an additional word which might bias the people against me.” It is generally believed in Sacramen- to that Worden’s confession amounts to an actual abandonment of the plea made to the Governor in his behalf on the ground of the prisoner’s insanity. The Bee last night published the ac- count of a visit made to Folsom by Dr. F. W. Hatch of the Lunacy Com- | mission and W. P. Mathews, secretar: of the, State Beoard of Health.” They | conversed freely with Worden, and| expressed themselves as convinced of | his sanity. % Melvin Hatch, one of the strikers whom Worden accuses as being prin- cipals in the trestle murders during | the railroad strike, said with an oath; yesterday that Worden was a fool, and | that if he (Hatch) were to be tried | over again for complicity he would | prove a stronger alibi than he did at| A telegram from Cowles states that| it is generally believed there that Wor- | den was led to confess by the thought that he could not sustain successfully the theory of insanity, and that he would stand better chances by telling | his story and thereby throwing him- | self completely upon the mercy of the | Governor. | UNABLE T0 ENDURE UNKIND CRITICISM Grocer Kirchoff Says the Ex- aminer Building Gives Him Sore Eyes. The Guardian of the Pecular Struc- ture Arrests Him for His Frankness. Ordinarily B. Kirchhoff is a grocer in the Mission, but Tuesday night he was a grocer in jail. How he happened to get there is a tale sure to excite sympathy. Mr. Kirchhoff was standing at the corner of Third and Market streets and his eyes fell upon the Queer-looking structure there known as The Examiner building. This fact pained them, and the Kirchhoff vojce rose in protest against the architectural misfit. “That build- ing,” he remarked frankly, ‘‘makes me weary."” The tone he employed was not a whisper. It came to the ears of a special policeman named Kelly, whose duty is to protect the structure from damage, and incidentally from adverse comment. Kelly cautioned the grocer to be more moderate and the grocer re- eated that a sight of the Examiner uilding gave him sore eyes. Then Kelly gathered him in. No aspersions shall be hurled at the Examiner building, not if Kelly knows it. The principle is wrong, and besides, a well directed aspersion might knock the building over. It befell that the case o f Kirchhoff was called before Judge Campbell. This Judge is recognized as the modern Solo- mon. He stroked his beard in contempla- tive silance for a moment and then told the prisoner to go. ‘I have seen that building myself,” said the wise man of the woolsack. ‘““The only way to be near 1bt"agd escape getting sore eyes is to be However, this did not satisfy Kelly, who asked that the matter go over and it went over to Friday, Mr. Kirchhoff being allowed to roam on his own recog- nizance until that time. So the matter stands. If Kelly can convince the court that to be offended by the Examiner building is an offense against the law there are many citizens who. will cheer- fully chip in to pay the fine and be grateful that they elude the expansive and alert ear of Kelly. . —————————— MIDWEEK THEATRICALS.
