10 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 15, 1898. ASKS THREE MILLIONS FOR THE PLANT Los Angeles Water Corpo- ration’s Proposal to the City. Contested Crystal Springs Rights Rated at One-Third of the Total Valuation. LOS ANGELES, June 14—When ent almost six months ago that the Los Angeles City Wate Company would demand $3,000,000 for its plant from the city that prophecy was made advisedly That is what the company by its attorneys asked to-day, although the offer came In the shape of two propositions, made at a joint meeting of the directors of the water company and the members of the City Council. One was to sell to the city corporation’s improvements to the city’s plant within the city limits for $2,000,- 000. The second was a proposal to sell the property owned by the Crystal Springs Company, which is a corpora- tion auxiliary to the City Water Com- pany, all of its water rights and prop- erty for $1,000,000 additional. The main feature of the holdings of the Crystal Springs Water Company is a contested water right. The city claims the Crystal Springs water rights are invalid and of no value, water claimed by the Crystal Sp: Company is simply percolating water of the river, all of which belongs to the cit One million dollars is the amc t really asked for the contested water rights. The proposition of the wa company was not at all favorably received by the Council. ntory of the property owned d to be owned was supplied. Af hearing Council ordered the w mittee and the City Engineer to check up the inventory with the estimatc value previously made by the City Er gineer, and ertain how far apart the City Engineer's value of the company’s property and the valuation of the cor- poratic £ Another meeting it ter supply com- to be held ay next Savor A was not at all sfled with the meeting held to-day. was an interested spectator and bated in the conference. The t the property which the city | sired company was worth approxi mately 0,000, but that did not in- clude any allowance for the alleged Crystal Springs water right upon which the company has placed the | liberal valuation of $1,000,000. As to this right, Superior has not yet rendered his decision. case has been tried before him submitted. An opinion is now awaited. One thing is certain: Los Angele bonds to buy out the present compan If it should be done an immediate ex- penditure of $500,000 would have to be made to put the plant into shape.

We | shall be glad to hear from the repre- | sentatives of the water company.” | Judge Chapman, on behalf of the | water company, responded: | “We have endeavored in our report, made to the Council, to outline what we claim the city should purchase under | the contract. This schedule of prop- | erty is complete and aecurate in its de- | scription. Now, while the company has fully outlined what property it as falling within the terms of never yet heard the city's interpretation as to what it claims comes under the headof improve- ments, which the city must purchase | under the contract. | “We come prepared to name a price for all the properties owned and con- trolled by the Los Angeles City Water Company, or for the portion of those properties which we maintain must be We con- the Crystal Springs Company property, but we do claim that the city will find it absolutely necessary to own such a system of additional supply in order to adequately furnish the needs of this city. There is no necessity for referring to the growth of Los Angeles. It is too conspicuous to need reference, but that very growth makes all the more evi- dent the value of properties such as the reservoir sites not now used by the We are prepared to and to reach a final determination at ! to and should purchase of the | {he earliest practical moment, so that G | the ci may proceed to the lssuance of bonds for the payment upon such | properties as it is agreed shall be pur- | chased under the contract.” | City Attorney Dunn at this juncture . . |announced that the City Council was Judge Yorke | pronared to hear the price the water The | company had fixed upon its property. and | Then ft wa that Judge Chapman made | the two propositions eutlined hereto- | The Judge explained that all of preparatory for any transaction | tending to the purchase thereof.

Tobacco Men and Brewers Making Inventories of the Stock on Hand and Large Dis- counts Offered. Collector Lynch and all of his force were up to their ears In business yesterday is- suing circulars to the makers and sellers of tobacco and malt liquors Informing them as to the detafls of the new war revenue bill and the taxes which they or rather the consumers will have to pay in order to continue the war against Spain and to pay the war bills already incurred by the Government. The' law requires all tobacconists to make an inventory of all their stock on hand stamped and ready for sale yester- day, the day on which the new revenue tax bill went into effect. All stocks under 20,000 cigars or cigarettes and under 1000 pounds of tobacco are exempt from the new tax. Hence the necessity for the in- ventory. Manufacturers of beer and other malt llquors may buy the new stamps in any quantity, whether needed for immediate consumption or not, and they will be al- lowed a discount of 71 per cent. The following circular was issued for the information of the brewers: You_will require every brewer on his return, form 18, for June, to account separately for the number and kind of stamps purchased, and the number and kind of stamps used by him dur- iAg the portion of the month before and in- cluding the day of the passage of the act In- creasing the tax; and to account separately for the number and kind of stamps purchased, and the number and kind of stamps used by him during the portion of the month after the passage of the act; and to show the number and kind of stamps returned by him and ex- changed for stamps at the increased rate. Also to show separately the quantity of liquor Temoved from the premises before, and after the passage of the act. 3 Attention 1s celled to the fact that the In- crease in the rate of tax will probably necessi- tate the giving of new bonds by all brewers, as the amount of tax which, in the opiniorn of the Collector, the brewer will be lable to pay during any one month. You will please oe that new bonds In sufficlent amounts are given in all cases where the present bond is too small to satisfy the requirements of the law in this respect. The receipts of the office terday were $26,800, about $20,000 in pd el nary dally receipts of the office. This in- crease in receipts will not be permanent because the payments made yesterda) represent amounts due on stock held | Jones repeated the allegations in regard while awaiting the actlon of Congress on | the bill. AN OAXLAND SENSATION. Charges of Perjury and Libel Filed Here Arising Out of Annie Johnson’s Death. The statements in the answer filed by Mrs. Gertrude K. Jones in the Superlor Court, Oakland, last Wednesday to the sult brought by Attorney George H. Francoeur against her and her husband for the recovery of $500 due on a promis- sory note have stirred up a hornet's nest. Yesterday afternoon Francoeur ap- peared before Judge Mogan and swore to a complaint charging Mrs. Jones with perjury in swearing to statements in the answer. The allegations that are de- clared to be false are principally in con- | nection with a conspiracy between Fran- | coeur, Jones and Attorney Henry N. atty 'to get “hush money” from Mrs. | Jones regarding the death of Annie John- | son in January, 1897. | Attorney Beatty also swore to a com- plaint for the arrest of Joseph Hutchin- son, the attorney for Mrs. Jones in her | suit for divorce against her husband, on | the charge of libel. In her affidavit Mrs, | Be- | to the betrayal and subsequent death by a criminal operation of Annie Johnson and the attempt to get “hush money” from her. In the complaint it is alleged that Hutchinson drew up the complaint for divorce and the afidavit knowing that the statements therein were faise and maliclous. Hutchinson was arrested yesterday aft- ernoon and released on $500 bonds. MARRIED AT MIiLL VALLEY Descendant of Washington A Lineal George Weds Miss Bacon. The wedding of Miss Alice Bacon and Francis Bedinger Washington tock a large number of people from San Fran- cisco to Mill Valley yesterday. Miss Ba- con Is so well known in the musical world that the event was of unusual interest. The ceremony was performed at high noon in the Congregational Church in the valley bir the Rev. Horatio Stebbins. The quaint little edifice was bright with red and white flowers, relieved by palms unddferns and pungent things from the woods. The bride, who is a tall, stately brun- ette, looked queenly in a' whito satin striped gown and large white picture hat. Miss Catherine Selfridge, the mald of honor, was gowned in white swiss, as were the bridesmalds, Miss Florence Sharon, Miss Lucie Brown, Mis¢ Merle Morrison and Miss Edith Allen. They all wore large leghorn pokes, trimmed with white chiffon and ostrich feathers. John Washington Twiggs acted as best man. At the conclusion of the ceremony a stringed orchestra rendered with mar- velous effect an aria of Bach’s, after which a delightful luncheon was ‘served lt)dlhevgotill.' P T.

AFTER A NEW BUILDING. CALL FOR GRADUATES TO AID THE INSTITUTION. The Board of Education Will Be Asked to Provide for a Suitable Structure of Brick and Stone. An effort is being made by the alumni of the Lowell High School, or the Boys’ i High School, as it was known for so | long, to have erected a suitable build- ing for the old school, and one that will make it compare more favorably with the buildings erected for the other high schools of the city. A petition is being circulated for sig- natures and it will be presented to the board at the first meeting after the schools close. The petition is as fol- lows: To the Honorable Board of Education and | the Honorable Board of Supervisors of the City and County of San Francisco: We, the undersigned residents and citizens of San Francisco, taxpayers and, for the most, pa- | trons of the Lowell High School, and we, the alumni of the school, interested in the cause of public education, and desirous of seeing the weifare of our schools promoted in every pos- sible way, do respectfully present to your hon- orable boards the following petition: L To tne Honorable Board of Education: We would respectfully present that the build- ing on Sutter street, between Gough and Oc- | tavia, now occupied by the Lowell High School, | built In 1875, is no longer adequate to the needs of that schuol in efther size, pian or accommo- datlon; and we request you to forward this petition with your approval to the Honorable | Board of Supervisors at as early a date as possible, together with whatever further state- ment of facts may seem to you necessary. 1. To the Honorable Board of Supervisors: | Your petitioners, the undersigned, in behalf | of the interests of our schools, respectfully | present the following facts: 1. That the building now occupled by the | Lowell High School, as indicated above, is no | longer adequate to the needs of that school. This inadequacy is specifically shown In the overcrowded condition of rooms, the lack of | proper laboratories and study-rooms and the | entire lack of an assembly-room. | 2. That the school lot on which this build- ing stands (a fifty vara) is too small for the | construction of any further accommodation, or | for any building of sufficlent size to meet the { | needs of this school. 3. That the city and county of San Fran- cisco s the owner and possessor of a half- block of land on the north side of Sacramento street, between Gough and Octavia, and that | this half-block can be most advantageously de- | voted to use as a school site for the Lowell High_School. 4 That the premises now occupled by the Lowell High School are sufficient, and, with slight repairs, would be satistactory for a primary or grammar school, and that such ac- | commodations are now very much needed In that locality. | 5. That since the Lowell High School Is es- tablished in the midst of a well-settled and populous portion of the city, and s surrounded on all sides by long-estabiished and well-at- | tended elementary schools, at least twenty-two in number, which must aiways continue to re- quire a high school in that locality, a perma- nent building upon some site in the vicinity of | the one suggested Is a necessity. | Wherefore, in consideration ~of the above tacts, we respectfully petition your honorable board: 1. To set aside the half-block of land on the north side of Sacramento street, between Gough and Octavia. for a school site for the use of | the Lowell High School. II. To place the sum of $200.000 in the annual x levy for the fiscal year of 1S98-99 as a spe- ific appropriation for the construction of a substantial and commodious brick building for the Lowell High School and for furnishing the same, The alumni will go further than merely ask for an appropriation, how- ever; they will help to raise the money, and to that end there is a plan under discussion by which each alumnus may donate $1 to a building fund which will the department may secure. The present building was erected in 1875. It is out of date and the rooms are all small and crowded. It cost originally $37,590, and there have been | two additions built at a cost of $9,108 55. There are at present nearly four hun- dred and fifty scholars and the grad- uating classes will average nearly sixty since the school was established in 1864. This year’s class numbers ninety grad- uates. A BUGLER BOY SAVED FROM WAR. JAMES PRESNALL RELEASED ON HABEAS CORPUS. The Boy Wanted to Go to Manila, but His Father Prefers to Make a Lawyer of Him. James M. Presnall is an 18-year-old otism and enlisted in Denver in the First Regiment of Colorado Volunteers and pitched his tent at Camp Merritt in this city. His father, James W. Presnall, is not as recklessly patriotic as his son, for he sought the return of his boy to his home under a writ of habeas corpus is- sued by Judge de Haven yesterday. The order commanded Captain Smith Rucker of Company E of the regiment mentioned to produce the boy in court. The boy’s father appeared In court in the afternoon, having come all the way from Denver to snatch his child as a brand from the burning of horrid war. The boy was there, too—a slender, bright looking youth—with a nickel plated bugle under his arm. He was a bugler, and he was sad, not because of the softening and refining influence of music, but because he had set his heart on golng to Manila and witnessing the raising of the stars and stripes over the lovely isles of the Philippines. Mr. Presnall had no difficulty in prov- ing that his son was under the 1¥al age. The father showed also that the ‘boy had anulated eyelids and his sight would g: permanently impaired should he re- main in the tropics for any length of time. He said that he intended to put his son to school in this city and make a lawyer of him, ——————— Divorce Suits Filed. Anna M.
