At last the secret is out. The peculiar condition of affairs at the City Hall is all explained. The business of governing the city is no longer con- ducted on the family plan. The family has fallen out, and as families when they fall out are like the rogues in parables, something has come to light, which is enlightening. There has been more ‘‘borrowing.” The latest development, however, is a change from the old order of things. It s not a ‘‘bu s transaction” of Harry homas’ this time. It is a little ‘‘borrow™ that the Mayor made some time ago. And he made It from Chief Fair. Yes, it is true that I borrowed $100 from the chief of the Fire Department,” said Mayor Thomas to-day, “and it Is surely a legitimate transaction. I paid it_back, t00. This is the latest link in the chain of events bearing on the City Hall admin- istration _that has come to the knowledge of the Grand Jury. The loan orginally asked is said to have been $200, but Fair had no ready cash and he had to make a loan to oblige the Mayor, and so the story got to the grand inquisitors as a side light to something else. Another little link that has bound the crowd together is the common craze for gold winning. Some firemen who have lately been found de trop “for the good of the department” have hinted that if they had purchased some stock in gold mines they would have been luckier. Mayor Thomas indignantly denied this fternoon that there is a particle of truth in the rumor. The mine referred to is the "Endeavor’” gold mine, which was organized June 22 last vear. Its capital stock is $100,000, at §1 per share. The organizers were D. P. Hocking, 20,000 shar Charles E. Lloyd, Chief of Police, 15,000; Mayor Thom §333; A. M. Benham, the Mayor's partner, 3! K. A. Hughson, of the firm of Ben. ham & Thoma 8334, But now these political and commercial partnerships that have been blended with municipal government are rent z nned by all and no one dare venture a gue: may follow. The Mayor declares the Chief of Police has ignored him by taking the “H. W. T.” letter asking Officer Hammerton for a “loan” of $100 to City Attorney Dow in- stead of to him (the Mayor). Chief Fair is smarting under the significance of the resolution passed by the board two weeks problem Vice of marbles instructing that the “Chief” and N there is no danger ahead istant” of the fire department r in this direction.

Months Have Passed, but No Desire Yet Shown for Trial. A Rumor That the Property Dispute Will Be Settled by Com- promise. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, | 905 Broadway, March 24. Tt is reported that the contest of the Hawley will, which the contestants a few months ago promised should be very sensational, may never come to trial. When the suggestive contest was filed by the Napa heirs of the late Mrs. Haw- ley, they asserted their belief that the woman's death was not suicidal, and de- clared that the shot-hole in the skull shows that the wound could not have been self-inflicted. The property left by the woman is said to be worth about $40,000 and consists of some business blocks at Napa. It is all left to the husband by a snort will, and her heirs decided not to let it go to him without a bitter legal struggle. contest was filed the case has dragged on for a few months, and the promised haste with which the case was to be prosecuted has not developed. The last entry on the court register shows that it should have | come up on March 8, and _after that there is nothing of record, but the case | “to be set.” attending is_on the calendar, The most peculiar incident the peculiar death of Mrs. Hawley, who, | it was proved at the Coroner’s inquest, shot herself through the head while in bed with her husband in the early morn- | ng, was the discovery of a letter signed sy Mrs. Hawley, in which she admitted he had once attempted her own and that her husband had never harmed her. Both sides prepared for the contest and some depositions were taken, the Napa people claiming to have a very strong case to support their demand that the will be set aside. Dr. Blood, who was the medical attend- ant of the deceased, is the best witness Hawley has, and the doctor has already made a statement in which he claims that Hawley is entirely innocent of any knowledge of his wife’s death other than | that brought out at the inquest. Already over four months have passed since the filing of the suit, and nothing s yet been done, and this lends cojor to the report that the suit will be settled out of court. —————————— FELL UNDER HIS CAR.

OAKLAND, March 24.—John Budworth, employed as a carman at the.Tesla coal mine at Corral Hollow, was killed early yesterday morning while in the perform- ance of his duties.

Westmay, | steward of the steamer China, living on | Locksley avenue, had an exciting fight with a burglar early yesterday morning. Westmay was awakened by the flash of a dark lantern in his face, and as he awoke he was commanded to remain | quiet at the peril of his life. The threat, | however, was unheeded, and Westmay | sprang out of his bed and grappled with the intruder. The burglar dropped his | lantern and Westmay and his assailant | rolled over and over on the floor of the | bedroom, each striving for the mastery. | Westmay s..outed for help, hoping to be able to hold the man until assistance, | attracted by the noise, should arrive. In the struggle the burglar managed to draw | pistol, and pressing the muzzle of the | weapon against the side of Westmay's | head, threatened to shoot if he was not released. Westmay w at the burglar’'s mercy and he let the man go. The rob- ber made his escape. —_——e——————— Agler Looks Over the Tield.

Since the | In it | NUMBERS 0N MARKET STREET South - Side Merchants Trying to Block the Last Ordinance. They Claim It Will Throw Awry the Whole System Now in Use. How the New Method Will Conform Nothing Either side. to on The Street Department is trying to en- force the ordinance regulating the num- bers on Market street, but the effort is| not meeting with mucn co-operation from | | the merchants who must change. Al | | along there has been decided objection to | the shifting of the numbers on the south | side, as provided for in the ordinance, and this has culminated in a petition filed with the Supervisors yesterday. The petition asks that the numbers be left | | alone or that if they must be changed | | that they may be made to conform to | the system now obtaining on the south | side of the street. | The petition has received the signature | of every merchant of prominence from | Third street to Seventh on the south side, and many of the larger concerns are | adding personal letters to the document | in circulation. The petition is as follows: To the Honorable the Board of Supervisors of the City of San Francisco: We, vour eti- tioners, doing business on the south side of Market street, hereby ask that the ordinance recently passed by your honorable body requir- ing a change in the numbering of the stores on the south side of Market street may be re- | pealed as far as it affects sald Market street. | We submit: | "% That our numbers have now been long es- | tablished, becoming in many instances almost | of the force of trademarks and ought not to be | Changed without some very urgent necessity. 7. %he reason given, viz: that the numbers | on’ the south side may correspond with the | numbers on the north side does not seem to us | to be sutficlent to justify the damage done by a change. 3. AVhile the change only very imperfectly harmonizes the numbers on the two sides of | Market, it entirely throws out of harmony | similar’ blocks on Mission, Howard and Fol- som, which, by the squareness of their stree should correspond with the south side of Mar- 1 that regular square blocks ar numbers on Market as in e city. of ‘more than one hundred block is scarcely justified in ket. It would s should have sin other_parts of 4. The placix numbers in o: modern city. 5. If it is deemed essential that the two des of Market street should correspond (a ne- | cessity which Is not apparent to your peti- tioners) why change the numbers on the north side of Market street, since the serles | | now on that side correspond with nothing else | 10 the city? | As it has been, the numbering of Market | | street was enough to puzzle the brightest | brain and badly befuddle the stranger in | | quest of any particular location. What | n was 1200 on one side was 1000 on the other, and whoever sat on the wrong side of the | | car was as apt to be carried beyond his | destination as to be left far below where he wished to go. The change in the numbering was to stralghten out this dif- ficulty, and the complaint is not so much against the changing as to the manner | of it. The north side parallels nothing. | | Its numbers correspond to neither those | on the north and south streets nor on the | east and west streets; and even with the most complete system it cannot but be | an inaccurate designation of the houses. On the south side, however, it is claimed, | the sftuation is different. On the south side Market street is cut into regular blocks by the intersection of the streets running In from the south side, and the numbering on the south side therefore corresponds to the numbering on all the | streets from Market down to Harrison. A | number on Market street now identifies all the numbering on the corresponding blocks to the southward to Harrison street, and, in consequence, it is claimed, the system has a value beyond the mere location of the Market-street houses. Should the system be changed in the way in which the ordinance directs it is claimed that the street will have a s | tem peculiar to itself, of no value in the | location of blocks not on Market street, and at best doing but poor service on the street it Is_intended to benefit. The stand of the larger property own- ers is one of almost indifference. but with the merchants the feeling runs high. The merchants look on thelr street number in the same light as they look on their trade mark, and having spent thousands of dol- lars in impressing it on their customers and correspondents, they object to hav- ing it changed. Several are willing that the numbers should be let alone; others think it a good thing that they should be made to conform: but with all on the south side the argument is that, were it possible to form a basis for any such er- ratic thing as a number system for Mar- ket street must necessarily be, it is bet- ter to found it on the same system as is resent on the streets which parallel Market and not upon the triangular blocks of the north side. The new numbering is provided for in a special order passed February 25, 1898, which refers to Market street only, and in that order it is attempted to equalize the blocks by adding fifty more numbers to each of the blocks befween Third and Ninth, and this, too, is most strongly ob- jected' to by the southsiders. They claim it is in the face of all custom to put more than 100 numbers in any city block. Be- sides this does not help matters as much as would at first seem, for what is 1264 under the new system is oposite 1232, It is declared that should the north side be made to conform to the old numbering of the south side there would never be more difference than this. At Sansome and Second there would be a discrepancy which would only go as far as Third and Kearny, which are opposite; Fourth runs even with Stockton, and at Fifth and Powell there is more trouble. Sixth and Taylor are even, but Seventh and Jones do not come together. Eighth and City Hall _avenue, Ninth and _Larkin, Tenth and Polk, Eleventh and Van Ness avenue and on out are all even. These arguments will be presented to the Supervisors when the petition comes up for action, and the south side mer- chants hope to be able to prevent the en- forcing of the order. Some one will have to be put out, they say, and so the thing may as well be made correct at once. —_——— Companies A and F Inspected.

OAKLAND, March 24.—Prosecutin; - torney H. A. Melvin of the Police éo‘:;t had hard work to convince Judge Allen that he should not dismiss the action against Gee Num for alleged refusal to pay his poll tax when demanded by Depu- 1y Assessor Ellsworth, on the ground that the prosecution had failed to show that the Chinese was a human being or was old enough to be compelled to pay poll tax. The point was raised by the Mon- olan’s attorneys, and Judge Allen was nclingd to side with them. The jury dis- agreed, eight favoring a conviction and four opposing it. Crushed Beneath a Log.

Fire Marshal Towe Has, He Says, Conclusive Evidence of Their Guilt. Twenty-Two Persons Were Asleep at the Time in the Three Flats Above the Restaurant. Nicholas Tendes and Constantifie John, | who were arrested on Wednesday morn- | ing by Policemen McGrayan and Lynch, | were booked at the City Prison yesterday on a charge of arson. According to Fire Marshal .owe and Detective Cody, who have been investigating the case, there is conclusive evidence of the guilt of the two defendants, Alexander Pantages, the proprietor of | the restaurant at 121 Fifth street, where the fire occurred, went to Alaska about five weeks ago. Before leaving, he en- tered into an agreement appointing Ten- | des and George Andro managers of the restaurant during his absence, and they were to equally divide the profits. Pan- tages also executed a power of attorney in favor of Tendes, in which Tendes was empowered to maKe a proof of any loss incurred by fire and recover the amount of the loss, which Is in itself considered significant. About half-past 2 o’clock on Wednesday morning Policeman McGrayan saw smoke issuing from t.. restaurant, and when he reached the place the cook, Constan- tine John, came running out, and told him the place was on fire. McGrayan notified engine 17, and the firemen hurried to the scene. They found the front door locked, and obtained entrance from the rear on Minna street. The place was on fire in places, and the the firemen floor was so slippery that Ligat They soon could hardly keep their feet. extinguished the flames and went back | to the engine-house. Assistant Chief Dougherty visited the restaurant immediately after, and he promptly telephoned to the Fire Marshal that there was something suspicious about the fire. Mr. Towe lost no time in getting to the restaurant, and d.scovered that there was abundant evidence of in- cendiarism. On entering the restaurant, there are five small boxes for ladies, which are | under the stairway leading to the flats To the right is the dining-room and in the rear the kitchen. The floors and walls to the height of about seven feet were covered with coal oil and grease and the partition between the dining- room and kitchen had been pried partly off to allow a draught from underneath. The table-cloths and tables and the boxes for ladies were also saturated with coal oil and grease. The fire had been appar- ently started in the Kkitchen, close to the partition. The damage to the building, which is of wood and is owned by R. R. | Hine, was about $0 and to the contents | about $100. The cook, who was on night duty, on being interrogated by the Fire Marshal, said that he was in the place alone, and the only way he could account for th fire was- that the grease in the pot on th kitchen stove had boiled over. Tendes came upon the scene and he was taken in hand by the Fire Marshal. He sald he left the place at half-past 1 and went right to his room at 97B Howard street and went to bed. the place was on fire. That was all he | | COMPAGNIE GENERALE TRANSATLAN- | knew about it. Tendes' face was familiar to the Mar- shal, and by dint of questioning he got him to admit that he was cook in the res- taurant on May 27, 1865, when it was to- tally destroyed by fire. At the time Tendes was interrogated as to the origin of the fire, and he gave the excuse that the grease had boiled over. Tendes and the cook were placed under | arrest and on the way to the prison the patrol wagon was_stopped at the lodging house where Tendes roomed. On enter- ing the room they found a man asleep in bed, who gave his name as Nicholas Con- stantine. Constantine’s head rested on one pillow and it was observed that the other pillow appeared as if it had not been used. The Marshal asked Constan- tine if any one had been in bed with him and he said no. Tendes, he said, came into the room, but almost immediately left again without saying where he was going. Besides these contradictions, the Mar- shal says he has other important evi- dence against the two men. The stock and fixtures, for one thing, were insured for $1100, and a falr estimate of their value would be about $300. The serious aspect of the incendiary fire is the fact that twenty-two persons were asleep in the flats above the restau- rant and all their lives might have been sacrificed if the flames had got good headway. The first flat is occupied by Mrs. Sallle Crowe; the second flat by Mrs. M. E. Pearson, and the third by An- drew Gale, and there is only the one en- trance to the three flats. The attorneys for the two defendants obtained a writ of habeas corpus from Judge Dunne yesterday morning for their release, but they were promptly booked at the prison on the charge of arson and the writ was discharged, —_———— Harris-Ames Case Submitted. OAKLAND, March 24.—The sensational suit of Mrs. Anna Harris against ner brother, Judge Josiah Ames, to recover $50,000 worth of railroad bonds or their equivalent, which has been in the court for the past two months, came to an end this morning. The defense rested at 10 o'clock, and it was immedlately submitted on briefs, at the request of the court. The defense has fifteen days to answer and ten additional were granted for the plaintift’s rebuttal. ——————— THE WOLFE CASE. ° One Charge Dismissed and Another One Immediateiy Filed. ALAMEDA, March 24—The case of L. H. Wolfe, charged by the electric rail- way company with stealing an ammeter while in the employ of that company, was tried to-day and resulted in a com- plete fizzle. The prosecution was unable to connect Wolfe with the lost article in any way. He had been seen on the cars with a package under his arm, but the contents of the parcel were unknown and there was a conflict as to its size and shape. After the prosecution had put in what evidence it had, on motion of the Deputy District Attorney the Judge di- rected the jury to return a verdict of ac- quittal, which was done and the defend- ant was discharged. When he left the court room, however, he was rearrested on another charge of ‘selling old junk be- longing to the company and pocketing the proceeds. Alameda News Notes.
