THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1898. THEY KNOW NOT ANY VICE IN BACON PLACE The Matter Beforethe } Police Tribunal. | REV. FATHER 0TIS’ OPINION DECLARES THAT THE INVES- TIGATION WAS A FARCE. Mayor Phelan Instructs the Superin- tendent of Streets to Remove the Massive Iron Gate. This investigation is a farce. It would seem that Chief Lees and the other Commissioners are determined not to lend us any assistance in clos- ing Bacon place. Fortunately, however, we have the right to appeal to the Supervisors, and with them we are satisfied to rest r case. Mayor Phelan, who is in sympathy with the movement, has instructed the Superintendent of Streets to tear down the massive iron gate leading to the alley, which vir- tually means that the women inmates must seek other quarters. Despite the apparent opposition of the police we confidently expect to see the dis- reputable inmates driven out in the next few days.—Interview with Rev. Father Otis at the conclusion of the investigation before the Police Com- missioners. rend gen- w that the cter.

Shortly before 12 o'clock one of the members of his family notlced that he was breathing heavily, and, becoming alarmed, summoned Dr. Burnham, who resides in the neighborhood. but at 5 minutes to 12 the Judge passed away. The suddenness of his death has greatly medicin ter were with him at the last moment. shocked them.

Belcher, and besides his widow leaves four children ‘to mourn his loss. They are: Mrs. Martha Cooley of Marysville, Richard Belcher of Marysville and William and Robert Belcher. Judge Belcher was a man of remarkable strength of mind and brilliant at- taifiments. He was born in Stockbridge, Vt., February 2, 182%. He graduated t the University of Vermont in 1846, was admitted to the bar of the Supreme irt of Vermont in 1852, and came to California in 1853, locating at Camptonville. From there he went to Marysville, where he practiced law, and in 1855 was elected District Attorney of Yuba County. In 1863 he was elected Judge of the Tenth Judicial District, which position he held for six years. In 1872 he was appointed Justice of the Supreme Court to fill a vacancy. In 1881 he was elected trustee of the State Library, and in 1885 he was appointed Supreme Court Commissioner, which position he has held for thirteen years and six months.

McGregor IL. The latter led into the stretch, where he was passed by Schreib- er's Good Hope. By a bit of perseverance Turner gradually slipped Torsida into sec- ond place, and then going at Bullman with a rush, beat Good Hope a head on the post. It was a neat plece of horse- manship, and was well appreciated by the crowd. The favorite was unable to crowd inside the money, the short end of the coin falling to Rio Chico. The track was very heavy, and form was at a discount, all five favorites going down to defeat. Ferguson, too, was in wretched form, the majority of his starts being very ragged.

Ambrose, Superintendent of | Streets—Dear sir: My 'attention has bee | called to the fact that Bacon place, o Pine street, 'between Kearny and Dupont, | 1s obstructed by a gateway, which has been erected without proper authority. An effort | is being made by interested parties to rid | the neighborhood and this street in parti- cular of tenants using the same for un- lawful purposes. They clalm that the re- moval of the gates will facilitate the ac- complishment of thefr object, and that while this street remains in its present con- ditlon it forms a nucleus for vice and en- | dangers the success of the movement. Fur- | thermore, they express the fear that the | ®round aiready gained will be lost by con- | niving at the unlawful occupancy of Bacon place. As it s the policy of the clty ‘o | purify this neighborhood, for which the | Supervisors have already’ made an appro- | vriation for & public park, there is every good reason why you should act promptly in this matter. I therefore direct you to forthwith remove the eaid gates and open the street for tratfic. Yours respectfully, JAMES D. PHELAN, Mayor. o CLOSING OF BACON PLACE. When the cases of the women arrested | in Bacon place were called in Judge Con- |lan’s court yesterday morning it was ex- | | pected that Attorney Ach would make his motion for a change of venue, but he was | silent on the subject. | The Judge expressed the opinion that the officers were exceeding their duty by rearresting the women on a second offense before the first one of a similar character had been tried apd decided. He instructed his clerk to mark the secondary crimes | charged against the defendants dismissed. | Attorney Ach then asked the Judge to | rule that the defendants need not come to court every day, but only when summoned for trial. He contended that under the | law people charged with crimes could be arraigned in court without being in at- tendance. The Judge so grdered, and the | cases were continued till Monday. | Lurline Salt Water Baths, Bush and Larkin sts. Swimming, Russian, hot and cold tub baths.

The others had no chance. Barney Schreiber’s colt Jerry Hunt took the opening scramble for two-year-olds. Going to the post a 3 to 1 chance, he led all the way, winning cleverly from Tib- uron, a 30 1 shot. Reina de Cuba, the favorite, was third. In the sprint next decided over the futurity course, Major Cook, a 15 to 1 shot, with Devin in the saddle, led from start to finish, beating the favorite, Sweet: Wil- llam, two lengths. Ricardo, a rank out- sider, snatched the show from Lady Bri- tannic. The latter ran very much as if her rider didn’t like her chances. plloted by I.
