MecCarthy introduced a resolution direct- ing the City and County Attorney to ad- vise the board as to. whether the Asses sor is or is not liable out of any comm! sions to which he may be entitled for the expense incurred in collecting poll taxes. Reed opposed the resolution on the ground that the City Attorney was at present rep- resenting the city in a suit to restrain 4 ssor Dodge from collecting the $15,000 now in the city treasury to the credit of poli tax £ Reed said that the suit was brought on the presumption that the As- sessor was not entit'ed to one cent and he could rot understand why an effor beiag made to pay him the fees, les expenses of collecting the poll taxes. Mc- arthy stated that the guestion at issue purt did not bear on wheiher the As- sessor should pay for the collection of the taxes and he thought the poirt should be | settled. “] am informed,” sald McCarthy, “that n every other county in the State the Assesscr pays for the expenses of collec- tion out of the commissions allowed by te and 1 think this should be the rule in this city.” The resolution was referred to the Ju- diciary Committee.

The petition of the University Monnd District for the abatement ‘of nuisances n Girard, Berlin and Felton streets: at the corner of Felton and Berlin streets nd on College and Bacon streets between Hamilton and University streets. was re- ferred to a committee. The petition says that the Board of Health and Mayor have been repeatedly asked to abate the nui- sances, but that no action has been taken. — e————— Leg Crushed in a Car Accident. William Eipper, an electrician, residing | at 632% Natoma street, was serlously in- | jured while riding on a Mission-street car vesterday afternoon. Near the corner of inth street, a truck loaded with long heavy beams swung out of the track to allow the car to pass. The motorman, miscalculating. the distance, started the car too soon and struck the wheels of the | truck in such a way that the end of the load was swung against the rear platformg of the car, where Eipper was standing. | Eipper’s left leg was caught between the | seat and the heavy timbers and was | badly mangled. The unfortunate man was taken to the Recelving Hospital. His injuries are pronounced serious. i M e Jumped to Escape Death. William Hamilton has sued the Martel | Power Company for $25,000 damages for ersonal injuries. He alleges that on uly 21 last he was cemg‘elled to jump 25 feet down an elevator shaft at the lg:op | of the defendant corporation in order to | escape being crushed by a runaway ele- ator. He was permanently injured, he alleges, and believes he is entitled to the sum sued for. ’ ———— fatally stabbed Andrew A.

This action was taken as the result of a protest filed by the Public Improvement Club against the granting of the privi- lege, the following reasons being given: First—The franchise on First street and Bat- tery street has been forfeited by non-use, and, -street franchise will expire in “irst strect should be preserved for an uth of Market street. ~The use of overhead Wwir should cease on our streets. All wires except trol- ley wire are now underground In this section of the city. Third—It this privilege is granted it is of creat value to this road should pay the city for it. Fourth—No provision is made providing that all material used shall be manufactured in this city. The poles on Montgomery and San- some streets were made in the East, when our foundries could have made them in less time. The fat rail only should be per- and the company mitted. Sixth—No privilege should be granted this company until it shall repair the strbets where it has changed its rails to conform with the pavements adjolning. A postponement of one week was asked in the communication, which was signed by Naph B. Greensfelder, vice president; J. Henderson, treasurer, and Gustave Schnee, secretary, and the request granted. The committee was directed to incorper- ate in the ordinance granting the fran- chise a provision requiring the use of the “Berlir.’" rail in the track construction and also _tkat the poles and other appliances of home manufacture.

The Police Commission met yesterday afternoon and tried the case against Po- liceman Louis E. Meredith, charged with reporting for duty on December 25, 1399, while in an intoxicated condition. Mer: dith is the man who, when he found that charges had been preferred against him, tried to kill himself by shooting two bul- lets into his body. Before the commission vesterday he pleaded guilty, but his attorney, Eugene F. Bert, asked that he be allowed to sub- mit testimony as to how Meredith came to be in such'a condition. The testimony, given by Meredith, his two physicians, and several sergeants of police = under whom he had served, was to the effect that he had done fifteen months' duty in Chinatown, and that it had so under- mined his constitution that when, on the morning of December 28 he took:two drinks, they made him irresponsible. He said he was under his physicians' care at the time; that he had been up all the night before and that he could not eat any breakfast that morning. It was plain that Meredith was not fit for active duty, for his wounds had par- alyzed him and he I8 not fully over them. And besides, he has been out ten months, and the law is that when a man is rein- stated he is entitled :to the salary he would have drawn during the period of his suspension. He was summarily dis- missed. ———— HEALTH BOARD MAXKES SOME APPOINTMENTS Employes Who Passed Civil Service Examination Are Perfunctorily Named for Positions.

Nevin, INVESTIGATION OF WATER RATES Spring Valley Officials to Give Testimony to Supervisors. With ‘a view toward fixing ultimately the Tates to: be charged for water to the pervisors resolved yesterday to commence an investigation of the cost and value of the properties of the Spring Valley Water Sessions will be held weekly or as often necessary and will continue until February, 191, when an ordinance containing the schedule of rates will be adopted. The Spring Valley Company is requested to. have representatives in attendance af theé meetings, which wiil commence Thursday ev ing, October 11, 190, who of its lands, cost of same, its assessed valuation, mileage of pipe lines. and whatever other data the committee may require. The resolution on the subject originally directed the Public Utilities Committee to make the investigation, but this. was op- posed by Brandenstein, who moved that the matter be taken out of the commi(- tee's hands and assumed by the board. He held that it was not within the pro- vince of the committee to make the - vestigation. Reed contended that the fuil board ~could not -do the vast amount of work necessary to the investigation as a mass of expert testimony and statistical figures would have to be considercd. An ordinance was passed to print au- thorizing the board to appoint a stenog- rapher to take down the testimony in the investigation at a compensation of $ per day and 15 cents per folio for trans- cribing first copy and 10 cents per follo for additional copies. An ordinance was referred to the joint Committee. on Streets, Artificlal Lighis and Judiclary granting the Board of Pub- lic. Works in addition to the powers con- ferred by the charter charge and control of the construction of steps for ascents and descents to buildings, of orfel or bay- windows, of the height and numbering of buildings_of all fences of wood or other inflammable material, of the erection of street signs. and transparencies, of the width of tires of all vehicies carrying joads through the streets and of the use and storage of crude petroleum and other inflammable material. Curtis said - that the ordinance would settle the question of street encroach- ments, . He said that property owners were Kept running from one department to another trying to get permits. Boxtoa stated that buildings were ut present be- ing constructed without permits owing to the responsibility ~not being properly placed. Brandenstein urged reference to the committee because: the boara made itself paramount to the charter in at- tempting to grant additional powers. The ordinance will be considered by the com- mittees on Friday at 4 p. m. —_— e Order of Chosen Friends. Pacific' Council of the Order of Chosen Friends celebrated its twentleth anniver- sary on the evening of the 2st ult. by an entertainment and dance. The pro- gramme included instrumental and vocal music furnished by Miss Emma_ Hanson, Miss Dora Browning, Miss Alice Mc- Peter McNevin, Walter Larson, Miss McKnight and Master Kalish, The feature of the evening was the ‘“baby show'" by the Daughters of Liberty. Ice cream and cakes were served, after which there was dancing till midnight. This council is in a flourishing condition, fre= quently adding to its membership and being decidedly in the swim. Its socfals on the third Monday of each month are popular and always well attended. Last Thursday night Social Counctl paid a fraternal visit to Evans Council and a very pleasant evening was spent. The membership_was entertained with ad- dresses by Past Supreme Councilor Ar- nold and Grand Recorder Wallis. The grand recorder was in Sacramento last week and while there officiated at the funeral service over the remains of A. R. Abbott, an old time member of Sacra- mento Council. hus far eleven council solicitors have been elected to work in this State for an increase of membership.

The Board of Supervisors yesterday called the attention of the boards of Pub- lic Works and Education to the fact that | the two bodies are violating two specific | provisions of the charter. Supervisor Mc- Carthy introduced a resoclution on the subject and stated that the School Board | was making its own repairs, whereas the power was lodged with the Board of Pub- | lic_ Works. I The resolution, which was adopted, calls | the attention of the Board, of Public | Works and the Board of Education to | ticle 7, chapter VI, section 2 of the char- ter, which reads as follows: When any schoolhouse or other property un- der the control of the Board of Education needs repairing, the board shall notify the | Board of Public Works, specifying in general terms the work to be done. e Board of | Public Works shall cause the same to be done forthwith, 1f the cost shall not exceed $250: otherwise the Board of Public Works shali submit plans, -specifications and estimates of cost to the Board of Education for its ap- proval, and if approved, the Board of Public Work shall cause the same to be done and the same shall be paid for out of the .common school fund. The Board of Works, according to Mec- Carthy, is not ahidlni by the charter in assuming charge of the opening or tear- ing up of streets. The resolution directs the board's attention to the following pro- | vision of the charter: | When at any time any person, company or corporation desires to have opened or torn up the roadway of any street, lane, alley, place or court in the city and county for any pur- buse, a written application shall be made to the Board of Public Works for permissfon to do 0. The board shall thereupon make an esti- | mate of the expense of opening or tearing up | such street, lane, alley, place or court and of restoring the same to as good a condition as it was in before said opening or tearing up. Such |in the Bryan ranks | try herald desertio | the Nebraskan. The | before the people as the only candidate who i person, company or corporation must there- upon deposit the amount of such estimate with the Board of- Public Works, which shall there- upon vay the same into the general fund. | The two boards are requested to advise | | | | the Board of Supervisors whether the are complying with the provisions me tioned, and if not give them reasons for non-compliance with the same. The Mayor stated that the Board of | Works was awaiting an opinion from the | City Attorney as to its powers in the mat- | ter of repairing schools, but did not state | the reason for asking for the opinion in the face of the clear language of the | charter. — e POLICE PENSION ROLL IS RAPIDLY GROWING. Commissioners VEt;rt t; Prune to Pre- vent Undue Increase in the Amount. The Police Commission met as a pension commission yesterday - afternoon, grew worried over the size of the roll and tied | up a few claims just for luck. The claim of James W. Gennett was tled up because he is out of the State.cpresumnbly without | g:rmlls(l:un from the Chief. The claim of | rs. . Mahon was tied up be- cause her husband IS in_an in- Sane asylum, snd she will have to get guardianship papers to satisfy the commission. The claim of the relatives of B. F. Rathbone was similarly dealt with until it can be found out who is entitled to receive the money. | The application of Michael Murphy, re- tired. to_be restored to active duty was | denied. He is 67 years old. The applica- | tion of Mary Mur;thy for-a pension follow- | ing the death -of her husband, Joseph | Murphy._killed in the line of duty, was denied. Murphy was already on the pen- sion roll, and the charter forbids a double pension, which, - it . was reasoned, Mrs. Murphy's claim would mean. Louise Me- Glynn, widow of Thomas McGiynn, who died from natural causes while on active duty, was allowed to draw the amount which her husband had contributed to the pension - _fund dunnql_ his . service. - Tt amounted to $552. ‘he application of Eliza Moran to be allowed to draw $1000. the amount. her husband had contributed . to the fund. as In the McGlynn case, was denled, as Moran had been on a pension before his death, as in the Murphy case. | The pension roll for the last quarte” amounted to $14196 9. It was when ths was read that the Commissioners startd to prune. TR R S, A Defaulting Clerk. | J. Cohnreich, proprietor of the Fotel Miramar, Geary and Leavenworth streets, | swore to a complaint in Judge Cabaniss’ | court yeslerdai for the arrest of Fobert Kelly, his clerk, on the charge of ‘lony | embezzlement. The amount alleged In the complaint to have been embezzled is $56, but it is said that the total amount of nis defaleations - is much larger. —_———— Suit to Recover Bonds. A suit has been filed in th: States Cireuit Court by Charles H. S vs. the California Safe Deposit and Trus Company and others to recover $50.000, the value of 190 ‘bonds of the California’a Nevada Rallroad Company damages | and costs. —~he complaint sets forth that the defendants are unlawfully withhoid- ing the proverty from the palntiff. WEAKNESS AND DEMORALIZATION OF BRYANITES Leaders of Republican Cam- Paign Receive Cheering Reports. General Clarke E. Carr Coming. Horace G. Platt to Speak for MeRley — Mouteith . Xig- cusses Bryan and Debs. —-— Signs of weakness Reports from ever the camp of the g Re publican campaign in Cal cheering accounts from t the city, Republican pros ening and predictions are that McKinley will again ca cisco. When the treacherous Boss Martin K ly gained control of the B'nai E convention, Republicans felt de but thev rallled again and resolve support the national ticket with re ardor, and at the same time p themselves to work and vote against boss-tainted candidates on the legislative tickets. Martin Kelly s working hand in hand with Democratic bosses to bring about the election of Dibble to the Assembly from the Forty-first district, and there s strong suspicion that President McKin- ley will be knifed to promote Dibble’s success. Republicans of the district will make the greate: political mistake of the season if they fail to strengthen the Horace Davis Republican Club of the Forty-first. The people of the district know that this Republican organization is not dominated by bosses—that Kelly cannot use or control it to carry out his scheme of boss rule. George W. Monteith is out in an open declaration against Bryan. He gives soms inside facts concerning the Bryan-Debs controversy in the following communica- tion: SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 1, 1900.
