THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, APRIL 21, 1898. TRADE WINDS FAILED HER The Bark Trade Winds Arrives After a Long Passage. Important Decision for Ship- pers in the Case of the Steamer Sunol. Ship-Owners Not Responsible if the Case Is Due to Negligence of Captain. The four-masted British bark Trade Winds arrived yesterday from Liverpool after a’lengthy passage of 158 days. Cap- tain Ritchie blames contrary and light winds for the long run, and once during the entire pa a decent sailing breeze the ship fell in with some strong west- erly currents and got “back-strapped” off the Horn.

Captain Ritchie BALL-TOSSERS | ARE PATRIOTIC California League Men Will Remember Soldiers’ Families. They Decide to Donate the Full Pro- l ceeds of Saturday’s Game to Their Support. The spirit of patriotism has penetrated to the heart of the diamond. The man- agement of the California Baseball | League generously deciued yesterday to contribute to the girls and others the gal- lant troops off to the war left behind them at the Presidio. There were present -’ the meeting: H. H. McPike, president; C. E. Wiggin, J. retar. T. Moran, Oakland; L. V. Merle, San Francisco; Mark Strouse. San Francisco; J. J. Rauer, and T. P. Robin- | son, Recreation Park Assoclation. The project of donating the gross re- | celpts of Saturday’s game to a patriot! | object was broached and taken up en- | thusiastically. It was stated that many of the families of the brave boys in biue had been left in a precarious financial condition, and any assistance .such.as proposed would be a real benefit. Telegrams were at once dispatched to Stockton and Oakland, and the replies | from Campbell and Pollard of the former | place and Cal Ewing and Norman of the | latter were fully in accord with the idea. | They, with H. J. Corcoran, agreed to do- | nate 'not only the gate receipts but the roceeds of the bar and refreshment priv- le o the worthy cause. | "Fho game next Saturday s now expect- | ed to be a notable one.

Pickpockets operated among the crowds that lined the streets during the march of the regulars to the ferry yesterday. At Van Ness avenue and Turk street two young men, H. L. Whipple and J. R. Herting, noticed a man with his hand in a lady’s pocket. They grabbed him and, notwithstanding his slrufglea, held him till Policemen Hayden and Pyle uppeared, and he was sent to the City Prison, where a charge of attempted 1Srand larceny was book ainst him. e gave the name of Louts Colli and his occupation as cook, The lady whose pocket he was robbing was Miss J.

The total fines costs were §] 50. They are of the opinion now that it {8 an expensive mat- ter to disobey an order of court, even if the order does not suit them. 3678 Seventeenth | AN OLD BANK BOOK - INPROBATE COURT William Schultz’s Fortune Held for German Heirs. More Than Twenty Thousand Dol- lars, Long Unclaimed, Is Still in a Local Bank. Some of the most pathetic romances tha cluster around the story of old bank ac- counts, whose owners have been lost in the twilight of history. Another Interesting case has just come to light in the matter of the unclaimed es- | tate of Willlam Schultz, who died in Ger- many on January 27, 18 For many years his silence has been a mystery at the German Savings and Loan Society. Though he had a fortune there no one could ever find a trace of his where- abouts.

As the following general order issued yesterday afternoon from department headquarters will show, General Shafter has temporarily turned over the com- mand of the Department of California to General Henry C. Merriam: General Orders No. 4. HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF CALIFORNIA. San Francisco, Cal., April 20, 1898.

By direction of the President, the undersigned hereby assumes tempo- rary command of the Department of California. H. C. MERRIAM, Brigadier-General U. S. Army. General Merriam now commands the Department of the Columbia and Cali- fornia. Owing to important official busi- ness that requives his presence in the Department of the Columbia General Merriam will shortly rerurn to his sta- tion at Vancouver Barracks, Washing- ton. Speaking of his probable sojourn in this Merriam said to a Call re- “I shall remain here the situation in this harbor and become famillar with the posts of this station. The departments of the Columbia and California are not con- solldated, but there are two commands under one head. 1 will return to Van- porter yesterday: began to make a thorough search through | couver next week unless orders direct me the various archives of the city, where- upon he discovered the fact that the de- | positor had died intestate and unmarried | me wheré | in Germany.

Daylight has at last been let in through the hog's back at the northern end of Polk street. The contractors have worked with a will to such an extent that before the expiration of two months the street will be so far extended as to permit the | passage of teams through what has been, since the pioneers first crossed the Rocky Mountains, an ungainly obstacle to the progress of that portion of the city and the opening of the streets running east and west. It was not until the Polk-street merchants took hold of the matter that any steps in the work were taken. Now that there is a prospect to extend the street to the waters of the bay the mer- chants feel jubilant that a brighter era is about to dawn on the commerce of the dividing line between the older and newer portions of the city. The completion of Lombard street from Van Ness avenue to the Presidio has given the northwest a sudden boom, o to speak. When Polk street is eventually cut through and paved, not only the Pre- sidio but Bay street will be made acces- sible to the business men for the hauling of thefr stock to and from the commer- cial center of the downtown portion of the city. In addition to this the Polk-street mer- chants will urge the Sutter-street Rall- way Company to extend the transfer privilege to the Union-street line. This, they consider, is no more than proper ‘in view of the fact that the business done on Polk street goes a long way to sup- port the travel on the Sutter-street and Pacific avenue lines. Tc, catch the trade, or, at least a portion of it, from the Pre. sidio and northern section of the city, they consider that the Sutter-street Com- pany should do something. Bush street, with its many drawbacks, has been an syesore for a number of years. e traveling ghost cars have left a kind of hoodoo behind which will not down. The double gutter left by the removal of the rails of the old track still remains as a reminder of the unhappy period when the crawling cars made their “one visit a day” over the road. This street the mer- chants claim should be put in proper con- dition. —_——e—————— OLD AND DESPAIRING. Frank Sundell, an Upholsterer, Sev- enty-Three Years Old, Could Not Wait for Death. Frank Sundell shot himself through the head shortly before noon yesterday, be- cause he was old and poor and sick, and his hody now lies on a slab in’the Morgue. o was 73 vears old and lived back of his little uphoisterer’s shop at 1204 Pacific street. ;‘ehv deceased left a note addressed to Herman Wrede, and reading as follows: “Please forgive me for causing you some lroélble, ohu;yl t%m‘l':us;n}]nd this any . 0 BO V' . longer. 80 BO0GIF RANK SUNDELL." ——————————— Imitating a Trademark.

One thing was especially noticed—that he not only rec- ognized the men but remembered their ames. i P uring Governor Markham's adminis- tration, Major Barry, who was then cap- tain First U. S. Infantry, served a term as inspector and instructor of the Na- tional Guard of California. He was with the troops in camp and visited every regi- mental and company armory in the State. No one is better posted than Major Barry, concerning the good points and defects knows the individual worth of the officers of the organization from a military point of view. He made to the Secretary of War a breezy, accurate and concise re- port regarding the guard and its officers. The document called forth a protest from Governor Markham, but Major Barry maintained his ground in good style. General William R. Shafter, accom- panied by his aid, Lieutenant Robert H. Noble, First__Infantry; Stenographer Bronson L. MecClellan and Messenger William C. Tremaine, leave this morning for Bakersfield, where General Shafter will arrange some personal matters prior to his departure for the South. The fol- lowing officers of his staff, and civilian employes from headquarters, will leave to-night on the Sunset Limited, and on its arrival at Bakersfield, General Shafter, Lieutenant Noble, Mr. McClellan and Mr. Tremaine will board the train: Colonel Charles P. Eagan, chief commis- sary; Lieutenant-Colonel John B. Bab- Major Stephen W. Groesbeck, judge advocate; Lieutenant Frank Greene, signal officer; Lieutenant John D. Miley, ald and engin- eer officer; Augustus Vibart and William Armstrong, _clerks, _adjutant-general's department; John E. Waters, clerk, com- missary department, and George Boll, messenger. Mr. and Mrs. McKittrick of Bakersfield will go to New Orleans with the general and his staff. Mrs. McKittrick is Gen- eral Shafter's daughter. Major Edward B.

Colonel Moore and Colonel Eagan have been ordered to New Orleans. Troops C and K, Fourth Cavalry, Pre- sidlo, ~ commanded by Captains Harry C. Benson and George H. G. Gale, which were detailed not long since to patrol the Yosemite, Sequoia and General Grant National Parks, are still at that post. All the pack mules and aparejos that were to | have been used by the troops in the parks have been shipped to New Orleans. It is stated on good authority that if war is declared the four troops of the Fourth Cavalry, now stationed at the Presidio, will be ordered to the front, and their places filled by militia cavalry. The special duties heretofore performed by the infantry troops is now being performed by the cavalry. Collector Jackson was officially noti- fled yesterday that the revenue cutter Rush had been taken by the Navy De- partment for use as an auxiliary cruiser. The cutter went up to Mare Island last evening for the necessaty alterations, Colonel James F. Smith, First In- fantry, National Guard of California, has issued regimental orders No. directing the regiment to parade on Friday, April 22, 1898. The field, staff, band and First and Second battalions and cadet company will assemble at 8 p. m. at the regimental armory. The Third Battalion will report at the Polk- street entrance of the Mechanics’ Pa- vilion at 8:20 p. m. Some of the officers of the First Regi- ment, National Guard of California, are thoroughly satisfied that their regiment will be the one to go to the front upon the call of the President for volunteers. In view of this possibility the military entertainment to be given by the local soldiers to-morrow night in Mechanics’ Pavilion may turn out to be more of a farewell party than a reception. But whether the troops remain or go to war there will be no lack of interest in the exhibition. Several weeks have been spent in perfecting the men in the various special features to be presented and thev are very much in earnest that the public should understand the effi- ciency of the guard. This will be fully demonstrated by the one thousand men who will appear upon the floor in a body. The committee in charge last night appointed all the sergeants as a floor committee for the ball which is to fol- low the military display. Leader Cas sasa o fthe First Regiment band was also instructed to furnish some new military airs and intersperse some lively patriotic selections as well. Troop A, cavalry, Captain Burnetf, has decided to participate and some very interesting and instructive ma- neuvers are promised. _— e ——— CONTEMPT OF COURT. Judge Joa*.l;ims';n”Fh;es His Prose- cuting Attorney Fifty Dollars. Judge Joachimsen and nis prosecuting attorney, Thomas F. Graham, had a mis- understanding yesterday morning which resulted in Graham being fined $50 for contempt of court. : Louis Metter, a carpenter in the Mission, was tried on a charge of battery upon Robert Downs, Sunday night. Melter_ is a big, powerful man and Downs is a slim- built boy. From the evidence of Downs and a companion, Joseph O'Brien, a boy wearing glasses, it appeared that as they were going home they met Metter and they had some words. O'Brien, in a spirit of fun, made a pretense to take off his coat, when Metter hit him with a cane and knocked him down. Then he struck Downs across the face with the cane. Metter's story was that the two boys were following him around, and one of them assumed a threatening attitude. Thinking that they were going to strike him, he used the cane. Metter called B. Solomon, stenographer in Judge Wallace's court, who testified to Metter's good character. The Judge remarked that citizens should be protected against young hoodlums, and accordingly dismissed the case. “It's an outrage on justice,” said Gra- ham. “A big man like that striking two boys with a cane. These boys are not hoodlums.” “For those words I will fine you $0,” retorted the Judge. Nothing more was said, but after court adjourned Graham apologized to the Judge, who, however, said that the apol- ogy would have to be made in open court in the morning. —_———— WANT IMPROVEMENTS. South of the Mission Parks and Streets Demand Consideration. South of the Mission; which is repre- sented by a league of improvement clubs, has for its object the betterment of the sections known as Precita Valley, Lick- Wilmerding, Cortland avenue and Mis- sion and Potrero avenue. The district embodied in these sections has of late made its presence felt by ap- pearing before the Board of Supervisors and asking for appropriations out of the next year’'s tax levy for the improvement of the streets running through that por- A claim is also set up for sufficient funds to put the several public parks that are dotted down on the official map in condition suitable for park purposes. Franklin square, JacksonPark and Bernal Park are to-day in the same condition as they were fifty years ago, while it is claimed by the delegates to the league that every square and park in the northern and western portion of the city has been improved at the public expense. This neglect on the part of the Supervisors (not the present board in particular) is looked upon as being the reverse of fair toward the Mission tax- payers. The property owners, through their representatives in the league, on the slope of the Southern Heights, where the Lick and Wilmerding schools have sites, are loud in their complaints against the unhealthy condition of the low lving swamps between Channel, Sixteenth, Kansas and the San Bruno road. This section was visited by the Mayor and some of the Supervisors a few days since. There was no difference of opin- ion as to the necessity of having some- thing done with the swamps and also with the street grades, particularly that of Utah, between Nineteenth and Twen- tieth, where the difference is all the way from nineteen to twenty feet below the grade. The usual cry for lights accompanies all other compiaints from every section of the south of the Mission district clear to the waters of the bay. ———— The Passion Play. “The Passion Play,” reproduced from the original as it is presented at Ober- ammergau, opened its second week at Y.
