City Attorney Lane is outlining a plan which the school teachers and all others who have just claims against the city may be pald. Lane holds that the surplus fund remaining in the city treas- ury at the end of the fiscal year cannot be used for the purpose, as the constitu- | tional amendment adopted by the people provides for the levying of a special tax. This will mean but four months' delay when the tax budget will be fixed to go into effect July 1, 1901 Lane says that the teachers should not | be required to pay lawyers' fees for the | collection of their claims. He believes that there will be no necessity for obtain- ing a final judgment, as they will have no difficulty in proving their claims. When they are properly presented to the Board of Supervisors and to the Auditor they will be paid in full. Lane disagrees with the Auditor regarding final judg- ments, and contenas that when a claim | | s reduced to a judgment it can only be | paid _out of the revenue of the year in which it was incurred. He is of the opin- | fon thet final judgments against the city | have lapsed. Lane will recommend that the surplus fund be applied to municipal betterments, such as new streets and other improve- | ments. The city’s debts, he insists, must be pald according to the constitutional amendment—that is, by spectal levy, This will mean that the estimated surplus of $220.000 will be spent for public improve- ments. | HENNESSEY’S DEATH | NOT DUE TO POISON Henry McGrath, His Comrade, Is Ex- onerated From All Blame in the Matter. The report of the City Chemist to the effect that no poison was found in the stomach of Charles Hennessey was read to the Coroner's jury yesterday. Hennes- sey died in a hack last Tuesday morning. His companion, Henry McGrath, too drunk to tell a coherent story, was ar- | rested on the supposition that Hennessey | had been a victim of a beating or “knock- | out drops,” but the autopsy made by Dr, L. D. Bacigalupi revealed the cause of death to be “fatty degeneration’ of ‘the heart, acute congestion of the lungs, en- | Jargement of the liver, and congestion of | the stomach and intestines.” The verdict of the jury was in accord- ance with the report of Autopsy Surgeon | Bacigalupi and also “relleved Henry Mc- | Grath from ail blame and susplcion in | the matter.” McGrath was released after the inquest. Hennessey was a clerk, 25 years old, and resided with his family at 1523 Do- lores street. Gerson & Baer, in whose em- ploy Hennessey had been for ten years, wrote a letter to Hennessey's widow yes- terday, speaking in the highest terms of their late employe. —_—e——————— Petty Thief Arrested.

The striking teamsters feel confident| that they have won their fight and that within the next few days their former employers will accept the schedu'e of hours and wages decided upon by the lo- cal association of the Team Drivers’ In- ternational Union. The employers are willing to submit the matter to arbitra- tion but will not appoint their representa- tives until after the assoctation has been recognized by the Labor Council. The schedule agreed upon by the team- sters fixes the wages ol members of the union as follows: Four horse teamsters, | two-horse brick wagons and two-horse | brick cart teamsters, $2 50 per day; two- | horse teamsters, one-horse wagon and cne-horse cart teamsters, $2 25 per day; hours, from 6:30 a. m. to 5:30 p. m.; team- ster to have his horses harnessed and , also to take care of his the to 6 team in_ the evening, thus bringing hours of labor really from 6 a. m. The union asks for the abolition of the camp and boarding-house system, by Teans of which the wages of teamsters are said to be materially duced by the contractors who keep camps or compel their employes to board in a house named Ly them. The teamsters will fight the trip system, by which it iy claimed their members are often compelled to work from twelve to sixteen hours a day and | then ‘receive inadequate pay. The union | intends protecting the rights of teamsters employed in hauling sand, rock or brick, cr those doing grading work and force the employers and contractors to pay Wages commensurate with the services rendered. While the strike has been or- Gered there is no intentlon of ,working | any hardship on the contractors. ‘The un- | fon {s willing to walve the schedule on | new contracts entered into prior te the jssuance of the wage schedule. The strikers met last night and dis- cussed measures looking toward a peace- ful and satisfactory adjustment of the trouble. The men were greatly encour- uged by reports received from those who are handling the strike. There has not Deen any break in the ranks and the em- ployers are gradually acceding to the de- mands of the men. The situation looks o favorable for the strikers that the pre- | Hiction was made by one of the speakers | &t the meeting that before the beginning of next week all of the employers wil accept the schedule of the association. Another strike and one that may as. sume larger proportions is now on be- fween Schussler Bros. of Grant avenue and the picture frame workers employed by them. Two of the workmen were re- cently discharged. They claim that they | Wwere dismissed because of their affiliation With Plcture Frame Workers' Union No. 147. Their allegations are denied by the firm. Schussler Bros. claim that the dis- missal was the result of a demand for higher wages. The firm says that the men demanded ten hours’ pay for nine hours’ work. The majority of the men employed by the firm belong to the union nmP about sixty of them walked out, when a demand that the workmen dis- charged be reinstated was refused. > MANY FIREMEN ATTEND A COMRADE'S FUNERAL Remains of Charles H. Okell Fol- lowed to Cemetery by D:puta- tion of Volunteers. The funeral of the late Charles Okell, who was one of the pioneer firemen of this city, took place yesterday afternoon from Pioneer Hall under the auspices of the Veteran Volunteer Firemen. The funeral was attended by many veteran firemen, Who brought beautiful floral offerings to lace upon the last resting place of thelr yarmer comrade. At Ploneer Hall Rev. John Lee, who conducted the solemn services for the dead, delivered a touch- ing culogy, dwelling upon the many vir- tues and the many good deeds performed by_the deceased. Charles H. Okell, who - was born in Rhode Island 47 years ago, came to this State in 1571, and in 1877 identified himself with the Volunteer Fire Department, which was then In existence in this city. In 1897 he was promoted to lleutenant. In recognition of his long and faithtul sery- ice, when he became incapacitated by fll- ness to perform the arduous duties of a fireman, he was transferred to the inspec- tion department, where he remained until lled by death. “3he pallbearers were J. M. Thomas and John :vamnsh of the Veteran Volun- teer Firemen, James Riely, superintend- ent of engines; Willlam Patterson, Major W. Cunningham, Mr. Sutton of the in- spection bureas and Captain Comstock of tg: fire patrol. The interment was in Odd Fellows' Cemetery. Brute Attacks Women.
