14 FRANCIS THE SAN O CALL, THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 7, 1899. HONARDS TOOL ELD T0 ANHER 08 HS CRINE Casey Yet Far From Liberty. e HIS CONFESSION A SENSATION POLICE CLOSE ON THE TRAIL OF | HOWARD. e Some of the Incidents That Made the Double Life of Kelly a Strange One in This City. [ f John Casey and the nt of the arrest of John hgerous members of the How- concpiracy, created yesterday a local sensation. Casey’s admission that cepted $5000 from Howard as part ensation to murder Willard F. showed to what desperate the gang was ready to go in Howard d h 11d stop at nothing, and the author es are belng congratulated that they have destroyed a nest of thieves and derous minded men. T! 1s still hope that Casey may be landed be- tnd prison bars and that he may be vented from inflicting injury upon ther communities.

In the downtown district, however, Kelly was a different character. After some stroke of fortune, as the theft of the sack of coin in front of the «£-' press office, he spent his money reck- lessly and with the liberality born of drunkenness. He was a welcome guest at evil resorts and the saloon m looked upon him as a benefactor. Then | his extravagance would pause until an- | other raid and so he continued to the end. | It is with Howard that Chief of Po- | lice Lees has yet to deal. Casey's and | Kelly's power for harm has been de- | stroyed. Howard s still at liberty, | amply provided with money and able | to adapt himself to any circumstances. The police claim that while they have not caught up with him they have not been very far behind him and they | have every reason to belleve that they | will soon capture him. The confession of Casey of the diabolic plot to murder Green, in connection with other evi- dence in the possesion of the authori- | tles, will make the outcome very dis- agreeable to Howard if ever he Is caught. When the capture is made the police will reveal their discoveries.

One of his choice sub- jects was “The New South.” Soon after graduating he came to this city and lived here and in Oakland a while in 18%4. In 1594 he was appointed by President Cleveland as Minister to Siam, being then the youngest Minister of the country. While abroad the new Minister made a number of visits to China, Ko Indio-China, the Straits Settlements, Java and the Philippines During that time h¢ has made a speci study of trade and commercial cond and possibilities of the countries of | the Far East. When it was known that he was to return to the United States, the local Chamber of Commerce made an effort to have him come home by the way of San Francisco, but the pressure of Eastern, and, In fact, European, commer- clal bodies to have him address ~them caused him to visit the Continent and his native State before coming here. Last June the Chamber of Commerce sent to Mr. Barrett an invitation to visit this city to address the commercial bodies and the public upon his observations relating to commercial affairs in the Orient. After some correspondence he wrote Secretary Scott from New York under the date of August 27 in the following vein: 1 beg to inform you, in accordance with the kind suggestions of your previous letters, that 1 shall arrive in San Francisco on or about the 19th of September, but not later, and shall remain there for the next seven days. What- ever date in that time you may decide upon will be satisfactory to me. May I suggest that you ask other commercial bodles, like the Mer- chants' Assoclation and Wholesalers' Assocta- tion, to join with you on this occasion? It is my purpose in my address at San Francisco to treat of this question of our commercial oppor- tunities in the Pacific and Far East in the most exact manner that 1 have yet taken it up, and should be mucn honored to have as large and influential a hearing as possible— like those kindly accorded me in the East.

Sergte United States Circuit Judge Morrow yesterday morning handed down an opin- i with Interest and received with joy by every wageworker in this State. The opinion affirms the constitutionality of the State statute re- quiring corporations to pay their em- ployes as often as once every month at least. The opinion is in the case of Henry Skinner vs. Garnett Gold Mining Com- pany, a West Virginia corporation en- gaged in mining in Sierra County. The 0 fon that will be r action was brought to_recover with legal interest from December 14, : costs of suit and an attorney’s fee of 500, and that the whole be adjudged a first lien upon the property of the de- fendants, said principal amount being due to the and his assignors as mi 5 The defendant alleges that Skinner and his assignors were employed under an agreement to take their pay from the proceeds of the defendant's mine, which was being worked by them; that they woukd not expect that their wages would be paid monthly or regularly at that they would not expect any that ments, fendant also contend requiring monthly pa constitutional (statutes of D 31). The defendant contends also that since the provisions of sections 2 referred to in specifically are unconsti- two se its title these tutlonal, i Judge Morrow’s opinion holds that their unconstitutionality, if established, would not i idate the entire t, but mer the sections involved. Article IV, section . of the Con tution of California also provides “But if any subject shall be embraced in an act which all not be expressed in its titie, such act shall be void v as to so much thereof as sha not 2! in the title.” The prem “In Abeel vs. Clark 84th Californi: we held that it was not nec the title of the act should ] bstract of its con- tents.

Many bills are yet to be passed upon by the committee and until all claims are adjusted no financial statement will be glven to the public, A band concert will be given this after- noon at Union square under the auspices of the citizens' committee. The object is to attract the soldiers and sallors to the place and acquaint them with the fact that the tent has been provided for their use and benefit. The committee also theater party next Monday night to the officers of the Wyoming, Idaho, North akota and Colorado regiments. The volunteer employment committee held a meeting yesterday afternoon in the tent at Union square. It was an- nounced that the committee was making much progress. Communications from out of town, as well as local business houses, signify the intention of managers to give the preference to soldlers in matters of employment. The following circular letter is being sent to firms who formerly had in their employ men who joined the California regiment: On looking over the muster roll of the First Regiment, California Volunteers, we see the name of . . Who, according to the di- rectory of 189, Was In your employ previous to going to Manila. Will you please let us know by return mail if Mr. will be rein- stated {n his old or some equally good position as soon as his service in the army is at an end? These boys will be mustered out on the 2lst of this month, and it is the earnest desire of this committee to see that places are found for all at the earliest date possible. Your assist- ance in placing your old employes, and as many others as you possibly can, 1n permanent profitable positions will be greatly appreciated, not only by this committee but by every sol- dier's friend in the State of California.
