IS ANSWERED. 'A QUESTION CITY EMPLOYES UNDER THE CHARTER IN BAD FIX. Auditor Broderick Plainly Says That He Would Refuse to Audit Demands for Time Lost in Service. The following correspondence on the liability of the city officials and em- | ployes under the new charter will be | read with peculia- interest: SAN FRANCISCO, May 20, 1598. Hon, Willlam Broderick, Auditor City and County of 8an Francisco, City.—Dear Bir: 1 desire to call your attention to a communication published in The Call on May 19, sign by Gutte, late | member of the Board of Freeholders. 1In the communication in question Mr. Gutte | declares that the provisions of section 3, | article 16, of the new charter do not affect | Iempluyes of the Fire, Police and Scheol | | departments under the instrument. The ! provislons of sald section are as follows: “No deputy, clerk or other employe of - the city and county shall be paid for a | greater time than that covered by his lctua.l service.” (Page 18, Charter Pam- phlet. Mr. )Guua contends that no deputy, | clerk or other employe Wnrklng for an | annual salary would be affected by the | section quoted, and he holds that it was intended to apply and does apply only to temporary attaches of the municipal gov- ernment. I also desire to call your Attlnuon to the provisions of sectlon 6, chapter 2, artlcle IV of the proposed charter. This section reads in part as folows: “No demand shall be allowed by the Auditor * * * in favor of any officer or employe for the time he shal have ab- sented himself without legal cause from the duties of his office during office hours. The Auditor must always examine on oath any person receiving salary from the city and county touching such ab- sence. The question I ask you,’in view of this | condition of the proposed law, is this: Would you audit a warant in favor of any deputy, clerk or other employe of the city and county for time not actuglly con- sumed in the service of the city? Of course, I except from this question fire- men who have been disabled in.the dis- charge of their duties, as there is a special provision in the Fire Department l.n.lnle covering their cases. Auditor, the charter makes you re- nnlbh on your official bond for rui demands. Would not a eml’x:s awn i3 Zaver of a deputy, clerk or other NO VACATION employe for time not actually consumed in the service of the city be an illegal question is of great interest to all s of the municipal government, and for the purpose of resolving whatever doubt may exist In their minds as to the probable action of yourself, or any persor who may occupy the position of Auditor under the proposed charter, I respectfull request you to return me as soon as po: sible your answer. Very respectfully yours, W. 8. LEAKE. SAN FRANCISCO, May 20, 1898. | W. 8. Leake Esq.—Dear Sir: Your| favor of even date is at hand. I have carefully examined the quotations made, and in answer would say that [ | believe the Auditor would be obliged to refuse the audit of all demandsnotsus- tained by the provisions of section 33 | of article XVI of the charter, if acting | as auditor under its provisfons. The consolidation act, section 82, made it the duty of the Auditor to re- fuse to audit demands of officers who | absented ithemegelves from office during ine such officers on oath touching such | absence. The charter has amended that section to the extent of adding the words ‘“or employes” and that the | Auditor “must always” examine on oath any person touching such ab- sence. The courts have decided that the provisions of section 32, as a principle, | cannot apply to statutory officers— | that salaries to statutory officers go to ‘ the offices filled and not to the detail of | service rendered. The salaries are based upon the title | to office and not the detail amount of | service. It is quite evident that the intent of the Board of Freeholders was to apply | the penalty to all kinds of employes as | well as officers, and while their inten- | tion may not affect officers, it may em- | ployes. I have no knowledge of any | court decisions on the question of sal- .aries to clerks and employes, and ‘therefore In the absence of such, I am of the opinion that the Auditor would | be compelled to recognize the provis- ions of section 33 as those to govern | his action and as a clear and definite | expression of the intent of the law | making power. The courts have al- ways held that the intention of the \Leg*lsla!ura should govern in the exe- | cution of all laws (not unconstitution- al or void). I consider demands, except . | those of statutory officers, drawn in ‘connlct with section 33, illegal under | the charter, and the Auditor would be | liable on his bond should he sign such. Yours respectfully, WILLIAM BRODERICK, Auditor. An Editor Goes to Jail. H.

Chief Lees Notified and Two Detec- tives Are Detailed to Hunt for the Desperate Thief. Joseph Hayes, living at 109 Grove street, complained to the police last night that he had been drugged and robbed by a stranger whom he met on Kearny street. According to his story he was walking along the street, and when near Clay he was accosted by a middle-aged man who | pretended to have met him some time ago. After a short conversation the stranger, after announcing that he had just returned from a trip to Dawson City, | invited him to ave dinner with him. Hayes accepted offer, and together they went to a restaurant on Third street, where his new found friend ciaimed that his brother worked. After partaking of the meal Hayes became dizzy, as he ex- it, and walked outside. The stranger followed him, and advised him to seek medical aid. At his suggestion Hayes allowed his new found friend to take him to a room In a lodging house at 861 Mission street. After reaching the room he became un- and remained in that condi- ‘When he tion until the next morning. | started to dress himself he discovered | that the stranger had robbed him of a diamond ring, a silver watch and chain, | | a gold scarf pin and $12 in money.

He claimed that after enter- | ing the restaurant he noticed the stran- ger drop some white substance in his Coffee.

Just then his *friend” duced his purse, and tossing a $20 gold ce on the counter, informed the walter at he would pay the bill. By this time Hayes had reached the street, and as he reali he was fast losing consciousness he accepted the offer of the stranger to go_to his room. Hayes describes the man as being about | 85 years of age, and had a light mustache. He spoke with a slight foreign ’mten[ which Hayes thinks was assumed. After listening to the story Chief Isei detailed two of his best men to hunt the robber. TOO YOUNG FOR T WAR. Prlvaten Mullally and Edward Boy- son Will Be Before Judge De Haven This Morning.
