THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1898 THOUSANDS SQUANDERED BY THE McDONALDS TO PLEDGE THEIR PARASITES A MERRY LIFE AT MADERA Tomblin Warned the Pacific Bank- ers Against the Schemes of His R ivals. Remarkable Letters That Show How the Funds of the Defunct Banking Institutions Were Dissipated. There are very few incidents perhaps | in the secret history of the Pacific Bank | of more general interest than those re- | lated in letters of D. M. Tomblin. This man fought for control in the | John Brown colony from the moment | that the Pacific Bank managers took complete control of the disastrous spec- ulation until long after the collapse of the Pacifi Bank and the People’s Home vings Bank The Call resumes this morning the publication of Tombl letters and de- scribes in the words of -Tombiin the wretched condition of affairs that ex- isted at the colc Tomblin not or made enemies in his administration of the Madera Bank but pos ed several before he took charge of the institu- tion. He understood thoroughly the necessity of retaining the favor of Dick McDonald in order that he might win for himself a financial benefit. He un- derstood that several people more closely connected with the McDonalds were likel to checkmate him in his schemes, and he lost no time in black- guarding his as:oclates in the Madera schemes. While he indulged his spleen to the extent of blackguardism at the same time he gave a minute and de- tailed account of affairs at the John Brown colony. He described what he | bel to be the dishonest manipula- tion of his rival and presented to Dick McDonald a condition of affairs that would have appalled any one except the egotistic, dishonest manager of the Pacific Bank. The letters of Tomblin constitute one an {nterview with Mr. Johns, in which he informed me that he had let the contract to Mr. Fowler, For several days I have tried to get an interview with him and try and stop him in his reckless course, but it has been of no avail. He has kept hidden. I look up- on this transaction as a gross outrage to you, and unless you put a veto upon it you 'will be involved in endless trou- ble. Personally 1 care nothing, but when I know that there is a gigantic job being put up to swindle you 1 feel frantic and almost beside myself. There is not another man on earth besides you that I would wade through blood to protect; for you I will do it. 1 do not know what power you have dedicated to young Johns, but what- ever that {s it will not be dedicated to your honor or profit, and with Fowler as manager we will be subjected to gross irregularities and frauds without number. 1 have the very. best of rea- sons for making this statement and sincerely hope what the young man has done can be declared off if it meets with your approval. I shall not sulk, but will be found at your side te bat- tle for you. If it must go the way that has planned I wish that you truct him and Mr. Fowler nnot purchase trees or go into_a hing that involves the ex- penditure of money without the ap- proval of myself or Mr. Newman. I do not wish to see you swindled if I can help it. I am, yours truly, D. M. TOMBLIN. THE ROW IN THE JOEN BROWN COL- ONY COMES TO A SERIOUS CLIMAX. On December 13 Tomblin again made Johns the subject of his tale of woe and wrote as follows: “I hope young Johns will under no condition enter into any agreements without having same ratified by you and have the same a matter of record in the office of the secretary.

The San Francisco Labor Council, voic- ing the sentiments of the laboring classes of the Pacific Coast, put itself on record last night as opposed to any movement looking toward the annexation of the Philippine Islands, as it dreads the al- most inevitable influx of cheap laborers of an undesirable class. The matter was brought up by Andrew Furuseth of the Coast Seamen’'s Union. In speaking on the subject Mr. Furuseth sald: ‘“‘Some years ago this coast was. rid of most of the Chinese immigration by the passage of the exclusion act, and we hoped then that we were rid of Asfatic labor for all time. Now comes the move- ment to annex the Philippines with their | nine million nagive inhablitants, who are | as bad if not worse than the Chinese and Japanese. ‘Mt is all very well for the advocates of | Swartz, Laswell, Ridley, ‘his wages that day and was last & v 2 frlen;si on the Clay-street wharf late in the affernoon. It is supposed that he may have drowned himself. His wife, who re- sides at 2990 Folsom street, reported his disappearance at police headquarters yes- terday. He is 46 years of age, stout build, about 5 feet 6 inches tall, dark complex- jon, sandy mustache and bald. —_———————— PLAYING AT SANTA CLAUS.

The case of Elsie Williams, Grace Looss and Myron Ahzderian closed yesterday at noon. William E. Nevills Jr. was cross- examined during the morning session.
