THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY,I JUNE 8, 1898. RECORDS OF CONSTABLES Grand Jurors Starton a New Trail. RIVAL JUSTICES OF THE PEACE ONE INVADES THE DOMAIN OF THE OTHER. Testimony to Show That an Excess of Mileage Was Charged on at Least Two Occasions. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, June 7. The Grand Jury has been at work all day on the affairs of Justices and con- stables. Some of the evidence given before it evidently needs explanation. Expert Denshee was at work for a long while on the records of Justice Clift's court, and it has been expected all along that some- thing sensational would result. Since At- torney Kinard commenced his opposition to the payment of certain fees before the Supervisors many facts have been brought rward to show that a petty and very {gnified fight is being waged between the Justices and constables of Oakland and Brooklyn townships. Attorney Kinard has two men, BE. A. Carr and J. Ramsey, whose testimony was glven to the Grand Jury to-day. These men declare that they were atrested at Sixteenth street depot and that the con- stables swore to charges for mileage from Highlands, which s many miles further away. It Is also alleged that these two men were arrested inside the city limits, and that consequently Justice Clift ille- gally charged fees for trying their cases. The records in Justice Clift’s office show that Carr and Ramsey were arrested May | 81 for vagrancy. The warrant shows that they wers arrested outside of the corpo- rate limits of the city of Oakland. They pleaded gullty and were sentenced to three days aplece in the County Jail, and Judge Clift says that everything is per- fectly clear and legal. Attorney Kinard went to the County Jail Baturday with another gentleman Wwho administered an oath to them, the nature of which no one_seems to know, and since their release Mr. Kinard says he is k2eping them so that they can give the testimony necessary to the Grand y. On the other hand, the constables stice Clift's court declare they have 2 grievance because of the amount of crim nal business taken to the court in Brooklyn Township. The cases of Stacey | Rogers of Berkeley, charged with murder; a young man named Fraser of Berke- 1arged with felony, and _another case, have been ordered by the Attorney to the Brooklyn court | thus greatly increasing vitnesses and putting them venience. Justice Lawrence, an office close to the ¢ and entirely outside of his township, where he performs as many marriages and does as much business as can be steered his way. One of the c tables of Brooklyn Township, C. S. Wel- n, has his office on Washington street, the heart of Oakland, and it is claimed at much of the business that should be ne by the constables of Oakland Town- ne by the Brooklyn constable, petty charges are being | & from one camp to the other, and it | vid tice is for the time ¥ Inated to politics, | supposed | and office- e vanished, if indeed & the present admin- BERKELEY WOMEN WERE OVERLOOKED SAY THEY FIRST SU(}GEST!‘:Di THE HOSPITAL SHIP.

BERKELEY, June 7.—When the ladies of the Berkeley branch of the Red Cross met this morning there was but one topic of discussion. Without wishing it to be made public, they have prided themselves 80 far upon being the first to suggest the idea of the hospital ship, and when this morning’s papers spoke of the subject in & way which implied that the honor be- | longed to Oakland they felt that their interest and activity in the undertaking | had been overlooked. | At an informal conference of the more prominent members cailed to consider the Question it was decided that the facts of | the case should be givén to the press in order that the position of the Berkeley | Soclety might be understood. | Mrs. Mary S. Haight, one of the pro- | moters of the Red Cross movement in Berkeley, said to a Call representative | after the meeting was over: | “It occasioned us no little surprise, I as- | sure you, to read in this morning’s paper | that _the name of the Oakland branch of the Red Cross Soclety should be credited with so much In connection with this idea of the hospital ship. 1he Berkeley branch was the first local organization of the kind started upon the coast, and it was | the first to promote the plan of a hospital ship. We have never tried to make this ublie before, but it seems only right and Jist that our place should be recognized, ““The idea of the hospital ship originated with Mrs. Colonel C. R. Greenleaf, presi- dent of our local society. She spoke of the matter to us over a month ago. The first public announcement of any sueh glan was made by Professor Thomas R, acon of the uniwersity, who spoke of it at a meeting of the State Red Cross So- clety in San ¥rancisco. He did so0 as a | | | ¥ | “follows: Viola Sy | May Alisa Spencer, ALAMEDA, June 7.—At the meeting of the Board of City Trustees last night an application was presented for a franchise from the South Pacific Coast Rallroad to put a crossing over Webster street, near the estuary bridge. An ordinance to that effect was introduced and was referred to the City Attorney to be acted upon at the next meeting. The Pacific Improvement Company sent a communication to the board offering to donate a strip of land of sufficlent width to widen Webster street to eighty feet, on condition that when the street shaill be improved that company shall only be re- quired to ffl)’ its just and legal share of the cost of such improvement. Attorney Dodge of Oakland addressed the board upon the subject of the pro- posed garbage crematory, taking strong ground against it. After he had spoken some time he was informed that the mat- ter was not before the board at present for consideration, whereupon he thanked :iho Trustees for their attention and with- rew. A protest was made against the Pound- master staking his horses out to graze upon the unimproved public streets, while threatening to impound the horsgs of any other person who dared to do the same thing. The Chiet of Police was notified to see that the law was enforced. High School Graduates. ALAMEDA, June 7.—The public schools of this city will close for the term this week, and a vacation will be taken until August 1.

SAYS IT WAS EXPECTED. WITNESSES TO THE AFFAIR DO NOT UNDERSTAND. The Victim Was Not Anxious to Have the Alleged Robbers Ax- rested and Was Not Robbed. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, June 7. John Flemming, who resides at 402 Ninth street, had an experience this morning that contains many elements of mystery. About ten minutes after mid- night he was talking at the door of the Seaman residence to Mrs. Seaman and her daughter. As he was bidding them good- night or good-morning he was admon- ished by the young ladies to be careful not to be held up by footpads. He laughingly replied that he did notcare, but had not gone a block before he was con- fronted by two fellows with masks. Flemming struggled with the smaller one and yelled lustily, while both men showered blows upon his head with their fists. The Seamans heard his shouting, and putting their heads out of their win- dows yelled also. Two men who were ap- proaching the corner of Ninth and Web- | ster streets heard the shouts and saw the scuflling, and at once ran to the relief of Flemming. As soon as they approached the masked men ran in one direction and Flemming, who had heid on to the hat of one of them, ran another way. The strangers, who undoubtedly by | their coming on the scene saved Flem- | ming from more brutal treatment, were | Martin D. Bullion and Horace Black. They stopped Flemming and told him that if he would run for an officer they would keep the footpads in sight. To their great surprise Flemming told them he was not anxious to have the men ar- rested, but preferred to go home without |any fuss. As Flemming was wearing some jewelry, including diamonds, which could have been snatched from him in | less time than it took to thrash him, it was apparent that robbery was not the motive, although Fleruming affects to be- lieve that it was. He told Black and Bul- lion that he had been expecting these so- called footpads for several nights, and conveyed the impression that it was not altogether a surprise. 2 To & detective who visited his home this morning the young man said that he was held up by two robbers, one of whom thrashed him, while the other attempted to stuff something down his throat. Flem- | ming said that when the strangers ap-| proached they did not hurry, because they thought, and so told him, that it was | merely a friendly scuffle. Bullion denies | this, and says they ran as fast as poss ble to Flemming's rellef, and were very much surprised that he did not wish them to follow up the alleged robbers. The police investigated the story to-day and have come to the conclusion that there is some other motive than robbery for the assault made upon Mr. Flemming. T. C. Williams Will Not Remain. OAKLAND, June 7.—The Rev. Theodore | C. Williams, who came here six months ago in the place of Rev. C. W. Wendte, | pastor of the Unitarian church, has noti- | | | | fied that organization that he will refuse to accept a longer term. He only con- gented to stay six months when he came | here from New York city. His health was | poor and he.doubted the effect of this cli- mate and his fears have proven correct, for he is not able to keep up his work. | The members of the church were well | pleased with his pastorate and had hoped | to retain him. The pulpit committee is | now constdering his successor. Showed Phoenix No Leniency. OAKLAND, June 7.—Willis Phoenix, the mulatto convicted Saturday of burg- lary in tapping a Southern Pacific till at the foot of Broadway, was sentenced to five years at Folsom Prison by Judge Og- den ‘to-day. To the jury's recommenda- tion for leniency the Judge remarke “Why the jury made such a recommend tion I can't see. There was nothing in the testimony to indicate that the de- fendant was guiltless. He had been con- victed of previous burglaries, showing that he is a dangerous man.” Tallied to a Cent. OAKLAND, June 7.—At the request of | | County Clerk Jordan the funds in his| | possession were counted to-day by Chair- man Talcott and Supervisors Church and Mitchell. The various accounts showed that the Clerk should have $4703 46 in the treasury, and the money in the safe ex- | actly balanced the amount. On June 7 of | last year the amount in the County | Clerk’s safe was $4359 26. This money is | partly taken in as fees, and partly held in | the Interest of estates in probate. Two Husbands Granted Divorces. OAKLAND, June 7—Judge Ogden to- day severed the conjugal relations exis: | ing between Joseph N. Rallton and Fan- nie M. Raliton on the ground of williful desertion. The husband was the plaintiff. The application of Hans Lanbeck for a divorce from his wife Annie was also | granted. The plaintiff was given the cus- | tody of the minor child and three-fourths | of the growing crop on 300 acres in Wash- ington Township. Combination of Milk Men. OAKLAND, June 7. — The Central Creamery has been incorporated to carry | on a generul milk business. The Talcott, the Carr, the Callfornia and the Medau dairies have consolidated in this corpora- tion. The idea is to reduce expenses in men, wagons and teams. Several of the larger dairfes have not gone and will not | go into the combination. Prosecutors Paid the Fine.
