At poiice head- quarters it-is officially’ denied that the changt : to the gambling scandal, but among the men themselves it is no secret that the Chief has.been very much perturbed by The Call's- criticism, and that his sudden activity is to_no other cause. The first-intimation that the Chief was beginning to come.out of the trance into which he had fallen was when he made his great raid on the saloons where the néfarious slot machines were being oper- attributable ated to rob the public of its nickels last | Saturday night. At first it was feared | that this was but a spasmadic attempt on | the part of the head of the Police Depart- ment to prove to the citizens of San Francisco.that he was alive and that he would, after having gdthered in a fair exhibit of these gambiing devices, settle back in his chair for another long, remin- iscent doze. ° But The Call's story of the big gambling layout .in the Palace, -operated under the very-nose of the Chief himself, with the mass of evidence offered-to prove all that | was alleged, struck deep into the very soul of the aged sleuth. He tried to deny | the truth, but he soon ‘found that it was useless, -as_thé gamblers themselves ad- mitted the facts as-published.

Bolles, United States Local Inspectors of Steam Vessels, completed -their report sterday afternoon in the matter of the explosion of the steam drum of the T. C. Walker on November 27 of this year as the steamer was leaving Turner’s Land- ing at a quarter past 4 o'clock in the morning: * The report states that all the engineers agreed.that owing to the distance from the -engine-room to the fireroom it was not possible for the single engineer to give the attention due to the bollers with- out, at the same time, neglecting his duty in the engine-room. “For reason of this,” the report goes on. to say, “‘we will issue an order to the owners of steamers where like conditions ob‘:ip to -place licensed engineers on each.” The inspectors found that the tubes in the starboard wing boilers showed evi- dences of having been overheated, and the metal in the fusible plug was about melted out, which facts, say the inspec- tors, are conclusive of low water in that particular boiler. “It is our opinion” proceeds the re- ort, “that the explosion of the steam rum was owing to the rapid generation tact with the overheated tubes of the starboard wing boiler, thereby causing a reat- and Instantaneous rise of pressure n ‘the drum far exceeding its capncltx to withstand. "We are unable to attac! the blame of this explosion to the en- gineer in charge at the time, nor to any other licensed officer of the steamer. It |18 evident to us that In many cases the licensed officers of steam vessels fail to report occurrences on board which it is their duty to make known to the Inspect- ors of Steam Vesseis, for fear of dis- missal from employment, and that this fear likewise causes them to withhold | things known to them concerning tne steamers upon which they are employed this board.” sentences: The license of Chief Engineer Charles Sampson to be suspended for three months for using an iron plug instead of a fusible plugia A Richard J.

W. R. Hearst Exhibits Rare Humor ‘When Accused of Violating a Copyright. William R. Hearst yesterday filed his answer in the United States District | Court in the suit of A. L. McDonald vs. } W. R. Hearst to recover $82,729 damages alleged to have been sustained by the plaintiff by reason of the Examiner hav- ing pirated his map of the Klondike and having published it in the edition of the Examiner of August 22, 1897. According to the Examine statement the ‘luding those sent to the ald, at | 82,729 copies (1) city garbage crematory) and MecDos under the law, essed the damage 1 for each co] $ ’lzha answer 14 sworn to by T. T. Wil- liams, and after making a general denial to all the allegations of the complaint | goes on 1o s “Defendant denies that on or about the said ~or any| Sunday or the said 224 day of | August, 1897, or at any other | time, or at ail, there were found or were | in fact discovered in_ the possession of | the said defendant 2723 sheets of the | issue of said newspaper known as the | Examiner on the day of Sunday, August | . 1897, or of any issue.” The 'defendant also avers that at no time_within the said year 1867 was he in the State of California and that the map mentioned and in fact everything else in the fakes, were pub- lished without his knowledge or consent. 1t therefore appears from the answer that Mr. McDonald committed a grave error_in having failed to procure the searching of Mr. Hearst's person in New York for the 2720 coples of the paper of the date of August 22, 1897. If Mr. Hearst had been searched and the papers discovered on_his person there can be no doubt, under Mr. Willlams' humorous in- terpretation of the law, that Mr. McDon- ald would have had the diamond cinch on the absent editor whose paper in San Francisco Is published without his knowl- edge or consent. —_————— Gustav Walter’s Estate.

The Disgraced Policeman’s Bonds Are Supposed to Be Worthless and the Police Are In- dignant. Cassfus H. Blackman, the disgraced po- | liceman, charged with grand larceny, has | disappeared and vesterday Judge Mogan declared his bonds forfeited and issued a bench warrant for his arrest. Blackman and Frank H. Rood, a sa- loon keeper at Sixteenth and Valencia streets, were arrested for stealing $180 from Cornelius Cronin, an old man from | Nevada. At Blackman's request he de-| posited $255 with Rood, and a few hours | later when he was taken back to the sa- | loon by Blackman Rood gave him only $75, alleging that was all the money he gave into his charge. The preliminary examination of the de fendants lasted for several days, and the, evidence for the prosecution was very damaging to them. The case for the de- fense was to go on at 11 o’clock yester- | day, but Blackman failed to respond to his name. Rood was present with his attorney, and the Judge was informed that no evidence for the defense would be submitted. The Judge thereupon heid Rood to answer before the Superior Court in 32000 bonds, which were promptly fur- nighed. Attorney Wilson, on behalf of Black- man, asked for a continuance till 2-0’clock as he could not understand the non-ap- pearance of his client. The Judge con- sented, but ordered a bench warrant is- sued for Blackman's arrest. Sergeants Perrin and Griffiths were handed the war- rant and they made diligent search for him, but failed to find him. Mrs. Black- man told them she had not seen her hus- band since 8 o’'clock Tuesday night. Po- lice Corporal Gills saw him on McAllis- ter street, opposite the City Hall, about 11 o'clock yesterday morning, and Bond | Inspector Newman saw him a few min- utes later in Judge Conlan’s court. Noth- ing was seen of him later. Judge Mogan waited till 3 o'clock, and as Blackman had not appeared he de- clared his bonds forfeited, but at the re- quest of Attorney Wilson, sald that if Blackman was found meantime he would recall the forfeiture of the bonds. The case was continued till this morning. The Judge sald le considered the bonds worthless. They were accepted by Jus- tice of the Peace Barry while acting for Judge Conlan on December 15. The sure- ties are Blackman's codefendant, Rood, who qualified on stock and fixtures in his saloon and on mining property in Plumas County, but no State was men- tioned. The other surety is Willlam Ken- nedy, 4 Brady street, who qualified on lots on Brady street and a lot on Eigh- teenth and Denver streets. Inquiry made by Captain Seymour elicited the fact that the Brady-street lots are assessed at $1090 and they were mortgaged to the Hibernia Bank for an equal amount. There is no such street as Denver. Nothing was said in the bond as to the propertles being in- cumbered or unincumbered. Captain Seymour, in speaking of the bond, sald: ‘“The bond was only filed to- day, Judge Barry having kept it in his pocket since accepting it. Bond Inspector Newman had in consequence been unable to pass upon it. I consider gross care- lessness has been shown In acceptin such a bond, and when the next Gran: Jury meets I shall take the matter before it. “"When a bond is accepted by a Judga for a case in another court it should be T S S S S S S S S S R T T Y T SR TR LR RO TR I 2 T T LT IRV during the Christmas holidays we ha dows, over our counters, | soiled, slightly s d hun i Each face and foo edge; tucked with colo lawn with butter color insertion ; Swiss embr ered Japanese silk with scalloped borders and ladies’ al FULL lch suitlngs, 38 in mohair suitings in nine fancy colorings, in rwo designs ; hair in contrasting colors ; see the display In window half isurahs, all silk, twenty-four patterns in el limit, no crushing, plenty of help and cou “the store of 937 to 947 eous ADVERTISEMENTS. red and w 5 very cloge to stockiaking now—good feason for such a re 50¢ after Xmas reductions, one-third off calendars, hooklets, cards, quarter off dressed dolls, games and hooks ; unusual events for to-day: REAT KERE HIEF LE T hite dered and scsll pue linen hems! lored bordar handkerchiefs, it will be the handkerchief surprise of ths year! sur LENGTHS 210 o5 wide, In ten colorings, In two deslgns ; rich overshot silk-effect in each pattern ; see the window displsy bayaders effects, broche effects, heavy.oversh price surah silk n—and: we have taken-all of our dolla” and cut them to half a doilar & yard ; no to every nspection. color atten! the masses.” Market St. filed at once with the Judge of that court and not carried around in his pockets. | It is about.time a stop was put to the | carelessness shown in &ccepting bonds in | felony case | MIDWEEK NOTES | OF THE PLAYERS is making out an| alifornia.
