THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, APRIL 14, 1898. 11 INTINGTON ECONOMIZING. Three Minor Roads Ab-| sorbed Into the South- ern Pacific. The Papers Placed on File in the Office of the County Clerk. Stated to Be a Move to Save Expenses in the Management of the Roads. Another step toward greater economy in the affairs of the Southern Pacific Company was taken yesterday. This was the formal consolidation of four of the less roads of that corpora- tion.

Now that Judge de Haven has handed down a decision to the effect that the John Kelso Company can be brought into court and held for a violation of the Fed- eral elght-hour law the combined strength | of the labor unions will be used to fight | the case to the end. At the meeting of the Carpenters’ District Council last night the matter was brought up for discussion and much tisfaction w ed re- garding the decision. TI siness agent of the council, Harry M. Saunders, was | authorized to spare no expense to prose- | cute the case, and as the law provides | a penalty for each day of its violation | a separate complaint will be lodged for each day the same force of men was worked over eight hours on the new Post- office site. A joint committee of the Building Trades, Carpenters’ District Council and the Labor Council has charge of the matter and a meeting of this com- mittee will be held to-morrow evening to lay down a definite course of action, An aggressive campaign will be opened immediately against not only the Kelso Company, but_all who violate the eight- hour law on Federal work. A vote of thanks was tendered Messrs. Welnstock, Lubin & Co. for their recogni- tlon of union labor in the remodeling of their new store, but one of the contrac- tors on this job, Veitch Brothers of Oak- land, was severely censured. It was re- ported that Veitch Brothers brought all their workmen over from Oakland, to- tally ignored San Francisco laborers and paid the men but $2 50 for.a ten-hour day. A report that the Election Commissjon- ers had decided that the eight-hour day and union labor would be observed in the erection of the election booths was well received and taken as a mark of encour- agement. ———— Advances made on furniture and planos, with | city THE EVICTION OF HUNG HI T = P e =28 VERY THING WAS Pyt EVEN THE FIRE AL LOL CAN NOT IDENTIFY I} THEIR CLOTHES, 'The Sheriff's Deputies Surprised the Chinamen and Threw the People’s Clothes Into the Street. HE majesty of the law in the person of six of the Sherif’s deputies, headed by Officer Jesse Galland, descended upon the laundry of Hung Hi Lo, 537 Central avenue, yesterday and proceeded to take swift and merciless vengeance upon the almond-eyed citizen of the Orient because of his failure to meet a rent bill of $45 due to Samuel W. Cowles. Judgment was secured in the case April 5, against Hung Hi Lol and his partner, Hung Wah, and a few days ago they were notified to pay up or get out, but when the notice was served, Hung declared that *“‘he no savez,” and refused to leave. 1t lacked but a few minutes to the hour of noon when the deputies stepped from a Hayes-street car at the corner of Cem- | tral avenue, and with noiseless tread pro- ceeded to steal unawares upon the laun- dry and the unsuspecting Hung Hi Loi. When they entered the establishment of the washtub and iron they found neither | Hung nor his partner. They had evidently got the tip of the impending trouble and had silently decamped. However, the deputies surprised six stoical Chinamen, who were busy putting imitation mirror- gloss upon six 9-cent shirts. The en- trance of the visitors did not in the least disturb the complacency of the yellow laundrymen. “Where is the boss?’ asked the head deputy. “Chow la moo wah ki, answered a dried-up, wean-eyed and shriveled-faced lold Oriental, who was laboring with the intricacies of a woman's lace collar. S “‘Come off, you antiquated heathen, roared the deputy. ‘“What do you think I am, a traveling lexicon of buried lan- guages that I can understand that tongue-twisting jargon? What I want, to know is where the boss, and 1 want to know it mighty quick.” Here the deputy pulled off his coat, and his men taking the hint shucked out of theirs. As soon as the Chinamen caught sight of the badges upon the vests of the deputies they quit work as if they had been struck by lightning, and at a nal from a little, fat washer who was stirring a tub of soapsuds they all started up with a high falsetto of protestations. The com- bination of their shrili, piping voices sounded like the filing of a rusty saw, while ever and anon above the ear-pierc- ing chatter there arose the voice of the old man, who, dancing around upon one leg and waving his arms above his head, shouted ‘“Me no bosse—he gone, me no bosse—he gone.” The deputles *“‘said not a word but went straight to work,” and without ceremoay began to deposit the wash of the entire community in the street. The red-hot stove held them at bay until they could get a hose to play upon it, and then the work continued. Tables, chairs, tubs, irons and all the paraphernalia of the laundry were dumped out upon the pave- ment and piled into a confused and heterogeneous pyramid. ‘While this was going on the Chinamen were busy gathering together their per- sonal belongings. The shriveled patriarch quickly secured his pipe and faded yellow jacket, and his fellow-laborers were not slow to follow his example. Soon each had a bundle, and this he took out upon the street and sat thereon. Silent and dumfounded, as it were, they watched the wholesale work of destruction go on. But when the people whose wearing ap- parel was thus being confused and mixed with that of their neighbors got on to what it w all about, then the fun com- menced. Mrs. O'Reily suddenly appeared upon the scene and demanded the imme- diate surrender of two towels and one bedspread. Mike Donahue was content to S shirts and collars, hen he went home and found that in the confusion he had a bundle contain- ing a lot of female underwear, he re. turned boiling with rage, and shaking a pair of unmentionables in the face of the silent and bewildered Chinamen, he swore to do damage to the faces of each and every one of them if they did not find his belongings. First the people - came by ones, then twos, next a_dozen at-a time and finally with a rush. They were not to be reasoned with. They wanted next week's wash, and they attacked the pyramid in the street to find it. In less time than it takes to tell it there was a confused mass of clothes, Chinamen, men, women and children jumbled together in a confused, struggling pile. Every one for himself was the principle that governed the rush. The patriarch dived beneath a pile of blankets, but some one grabbed his queue and hauled him forth. The scene resem- bled a bargain counter rush, and for many blocks around there were strewn all and every kind of wearing apparel used to adorn the person of man or woman. HELP FOR THE tion to the San’'Francisco Polyeclinie. Friends of the Institution to the Call for Assist- ance. Respond A reception was given at the San Fran- cisco Polyclinic, 410 Ellis street, last night and the rooms of the institution were crowded. During the entertainment Dr. pilyclinic, > Hearst had decided to donate $5000 toward helping the institution carry on its char- itable work. Since the organization of the polyclinic hundreds of the sick poor of the city have been treated by many of the most skilled physicians in the State free of charge. Medicines have been given to those un- able to pay for them, and In every way the institution has done much to alleviate the suffering of the unfortunates of the The expenses of carrying on the polyclinic are consderable, and much of it is borne by the physicians who gratui- tously give their services as well. Charity is looked upon to maintain the institution, and the donation of Mrs, Hearst came when it was a welcome gift. About three years ago Mrs. Hearst assisted the poly- clinic by a similar gift. —_———— SHORT TWO THOUSAND. The Charge That Has Been Placed Against L. C. Watters of the Commercial Power Company. L. C. Watters was arrested yesterday on complaint of his employer, I. C. Bor- den of the Commercial Steam Power Works at 506 Commercial street. The charge is embezzlement, and tnis may be raised to felony embezzlement before he comes to trial. The amount which it is charged he is short is over $2000, and the time it took to accumulate that amount of shortage stretches over several months. ‘Watters was collector and confidential clerk to the firm for nearly four years, and he was trusted with all of the busi- ness of the firm in the absence of Mr. Borden. A few months ago it was found that a bill had been presented and that there was not sufficient money in the hands of Watters to pay it, when at the time there should have been enough to pay a dozen like it. An Investigation followed and an explanation was de- manded, and as it was not satisfactory the arrest of Watters was decided upon. It was found that there had been num- bers of bills paid by checks which had been cashed at various places—at sa- loons and business houses where Watters owed money—and no accounting had ever been made of the money they repre- sented. About a month ago Watters left his position, and it was after that that most of the discrepancies were made Jain. Watters had always borne a good rep- utation and his arrest was the cause of much’ surprise nmon% his acquaintances. He has a wife and lives at 2615 Sacra- mento street. When accused of the em- bezzlement he declared that the only way = without removal. J. Noonan, 1017-1023 Mission.. it could have occurred was by dishonest: on the part of the young man who Work.

Hay- mond, the two lawyers who were recently found guilty of unprofessional conduct by Superior Judge Carroll Cook, have been east out by the Bar Association of San Franecisco. The offense for which they stand condemned was committed during the trial of Albert Hoff, the murderer. These lawyers conducted his case as his counsel and during the ?roceedl 1gs they attempted to sell an alleged confession of the murderer to the newspapers, ask- ing the sum of . Judge Cook com- mitted both lagvyers for contempt, and at the same time snggested that they should be brought before the Bar Association for disbarment. This organization took up the matter and a decision was reached against the accused, but McIntosh asked for more time, which was %ranted. ‘When the case again came up for hearing on Tuesday evening he did not appear, and the following resolution was passe%r: Resolved, That ~ committee be fortbwith ap- inted to prosecute Attorneys Benjamin Mc- Fotosh ana Bdear B. Haymond before the b preme Court of the State of California, and that the sald committee, representing the Bar Association of San Francisco, take all neces- sarv steps toward bringing about their dis- barment. The committee adopting this resolution consisted of Chairman Michael Mullany, Secretary J. §. Tobin and Messrs. Fifield, Kellogg and Louderback, The move to disbar these two lawyers will be pre- sented to the Sngreme Court on the evi- dence taken in the Superior Court. DONATIONS FOR THE FESTIVAL Masons Feel That Their Efforts Will Be Rewarded With Success. Several Hundred Tickets Have Been Sold and the Demand for More Is Increasing. Every Indication points to the fact that the coming fete by the Masons of this city in aid of the Widows’ and Orphans’ Home at Decoto, Alameda County, is destined to meet with unprecedented success. Donations are steadily increas- ing, both in number and extent, and tickets are being sold rapidly and in fact are disappearing like the proverbial hot- cakes. The board of trustees assembled in the temple yesterday for deliberation. Charles L. Patton presided. Dr. Voorsanger, W. Frank Pierce, Dr. Thomas Flint, Edwin ‘Whipple, Ed Peabody, Willilam Johnson and Kd Hines were present. It was re- ported that the Masonic Widows’ and Or- phans’ Home would be completed in Oc- tober. A resolution was passed asking the lodges of the entire State to send in the names of the widows and orphans whom the various lodges desired to occupy the “home’ on its completion. It is expected that at least seventy-five widows will be accommodated in the early part of No- vember. ‘W. Frank Plerce, inspector general of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry of the Southern Juris- diction of the United States, has just re- turned from Amador, Calaveras and San Joaquin counties. He reports that the Masons of these counties will take part in the festival and will donate various articles to be sold. He says enthusiasm prevails among the fraternity. In looking over the donation books yes- terday it was discovered that the Califor- nia Furniture Company had donated sums to a great many ladies. The ladies of the Scottish Rite body met yesterday in the temple and reported a great many large donations. Several hundred tickets have been sold. One lady had secured a complete, tailor-made dress, hat, etc. Mrs. J. R. Jones, Mrs. Henry Cline, Mrs. Shat- terly, Mrs. Starbird, Mrs. ._Thomas, Mrs. Judge Caswell and Mrs. Hollis all reported large donations. The ladies of Mount Moriah Lodge as- sembled in the temple vesterday and reached the conclusion that they would have a Mount Moriah Washington booth. Costumes will be the dress of Martha Washington, and articles symbolic of Washington and his life will be sold. Mrs. W. 1. Boyer is the chairman and Mrs. Guy Calden secretary. The Electric Railway Advertising Company of Oak- land has donated space for advertising purposes. ——————— Failure of L. G. Flanagan. L. G.

Now Prospecting the Great Bruns- wick Lode Will Begin 1800 Feet Down. The famous, sleepy, old Comstock re- celved yesterday the first definite injec- tion of the new life blood which all Com- stockers have an abiding faith 1s sure to give the old camp & great resurrection some day. Late Tuesday afternoon Franklin Leonard, president of the Comstock Tun- nel Company, and a number of the lead- ing representatives of the Comstock com- panies interested in the Brunswick lode, reached a- complete agreement as to an important contract, by the terms of which these companies may and will go to pros- pecting the Brunswick lode from the Comstock tunnel. The agreement contains an enormous mass of details. Briefly, it gives the con- tracting companies the right and every facility to run prospecting drifts alon; the lodey on each side of the tunnel an to drain their workings, haul out their ore and waste rock and §ensrally to op- erate their mines through the Comstock Tunnel. Where the tunnel passes through the Brunswick lode it is about 1300 feet below the surface, and several hundred feet lower than the deepest shaft now on cue | lheiment of Deceased Ex-Union lode, that in the Chollar claim. ~The | yocious®cieric and Assistant ... ... rospecting work so far done on the|Jury and Witness Fees.. . : runswick lode has veen done from the surface wholly, and what little has been done has not developed any ore bodles of great importance. Now prospecting can begin at a depth of | 1300 feet and besides can be carried on on | a vastly cheaper scale than operations | from the surface. There is every promise now that some of the companies will go right to work running drifts north and south from the level, and it should not be be very long before they show what the Brunswick lode is made of and whether or not the abounding faith in it which fills Virginia City is justified. The companies who become parties to the agreement are the Gould & Curry, Savage, Consolidated California & Vir- ginia, Best & Belcher, Hale & Norcross, Chollar and Potosi. A perfect agreement has been arrived at as far as the com- panies mentioned and President Leonard are concerned. The agreement awaits final ratification by the trustees of the | Comstock Tunnel Company in New York, | to whom it will be forwarded at once, and | also by the Union Trust Company of | New York, trustee for the income bond- | holders. As President Leonard is the heaviest holder of the stock and bonds of the company, and has acted here in accordance with a resolution adopted by | the trustees, this is looked upon as a for- mality which will be promptly attended to on the arrival of the papers in New York and réported by telegraph. | President Leonard last evening declined to say more than to confirm the news in a general way. “I regard the agréement as one that will be mutually beneficial to my com- pany and to the mining companies con- cerned,” he said. “From their stand- point, it will greatly reduce the cost of development. 1 have been laboring for two years to bring this about, and I am glad that it is about accomplished. Tt is the only practicable and economical ‘Way ‘to prospect wie lode. ‘“When this matter is finally off our hands, as I expect it will be with the ratification by the trustees in New York, the way will be opened for the other waiting enterprises—the drainage of American Flat and Silver City through the Comstock tunnel. It is too early to say more about these projects than that they may now come actively to the front. To them this enterprise of the Bruns- wick Lode has been a stumbling-block ‘which is now removed.” Comstockers will be deli~hted to know that there is at least a definite prospect of deep operations on the Brunswick fode with all its possibilities of success and failure, and its possible bearing on the re- sumfinon of deep. mining on the Com- stock, the 8000-foot tunnel to Silver City and the §000-foot tunnel which may yet allow mining to be resumed in tne rich but wet veins of American Flat. This final reaching of an agreement is regard- ed as a turning point in the fortunes of the Comstock. —————— BEATEN BY HIS WIFE. George Wense, a Cook, Has His In- juries Attended to at the Hosnital. George Wense, a cook living at 115 Seventh street, had a dispute with his wife yesterday morning. The woman had been drinking, anc. in her rage she picked up a pair of scissors and attemnted to stab him. He warded off the blow, and in doing so hit ...« in the jaw. Throwing away t.e scissors she went at him like a tigress and knocked him down with a blc v on the left eye. Then she jumped on him and banged his head against the floor, almost severing his right ear. She continued to strike and kick him till she became exhausted and left him in a.semi-conscious condition. As soon as he was a..c Wense went to the Receiving Hospital, where his injuries were attended to by Dr. Rinne. He pro- sented a pitiable sight with his discolored eve and lacerated ear. He declined to have his wife arrssted, as he said when she got -sober she would feel sorry for what she had done. ADVERTISEMENTS.
