When he was first taken to the Re- ceiving Hospital he was suffering from nervous shock. He soon recovered, how- ever, and three hours later was sufficlent- ly improved to be removed by friends to the Waldeck Sanatorium. Remillard, who is prominent in business, social and po- litical circles, bas a host of friends, and many of them called at the sanatorium vesterday afternoon to visit him. They were refused admission to his room, as the physicians deemed it advisable to THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, MARCH 11, 1901. REMILLARD NOT AS BADLY HURT AS FIRST REPORTED His Friends Remove Him to Waldeck Sanatorium and Physicians Say He Will Recover. keep him quiet for several days. No one was admitted to the room but his mother and other members of the family. It was at first feared that Remillard had sustained a fracture of the base of the skull, but there was nothing yesterday to indicate that such was the case. Despite the injuries to his head and face he was able to talk, but the hospital attendants urged him to remain quiet. Remillard is a heavy man, and the fact that he escaped instant death creates sur- prise. When he opened the window of the room on the second floor of the restau- rant, where he had been dining with a party of friends, he stepped out on what he thought in the darkness to be a balcony. The next instant he disappeared from view and struck with'a crash on the stone, sidewalk below. He had not no- ticed that in the center of the fire-escape he took to be.a balcony was a large opening to permit of the firemen raising a ladder and reaching the second floor in the event of there being a fire in the building. <+ e fbalatarsn HENRY BILL HOT TAKEN SERIDUSLY It Is Unconstitntional Ac- cording to Sipreme Court Decision. The biil of emblyman Henry, which received the Governor's signature Friday, restricting the hours of service of poiice- men to eight hours daily, is not considered serfously by the commission. For one thing it is held to be unconstitutional by 2 case of Max Popper gainst the city in connection with the bill passed by the Legislature two years ago, increasing the pay of captains and detec- tives in the Police Department. that such a bill was unconstitutional. as it dealt with a purely municipal affair. Chief Sullivan said yesterday that the Police Commissioners and himself had been trying for some time before the Henry bill was introduced into the Legis- iature to decide upon the beSt means of meeting the provisions of the charter that all employes of the city should not serve more than el habitants. That would give us in accord- ance with the last census 634 officers. It is plainly indicated in the charter that pa- meant, as the instrument dis- s, ‘each police officer at $1200 o that corporals, sergeants, | lleutenants and captains are not included | in the enumeration. We have at present 505 partolmen, so that we e actually en- titled to 179 more. If we were allowed the additional number of 17 men we could in- stitute the new order of things in accord- ance with the charter by making each man serve only eight hours daily, though we would have none to spare. “Nothing can be done till the Board of Supervisors acts. T have, »s has already been said, no power to make the increase and 1T am_entirely in the hands of the Board of Supervisors. We had intended submitting the matter to the board before the close of the fiscal year, so that the ad- ditional expe..diture could be incorporated in the nex ear's estimates.” | EPWORTH LEAGUERS GET ’ REDUCED RAILWAY FARES Trafiic Manager McCormick Arrives, but Pleads Ignorance of Fitz- hugh’s Appointment. E. 0. McCormick. passenger traffic man- | ager of the Southern Pacific Company, | arrived from Chicago yesterday, where he went to attend a meeting of the Trans- | continental Passenger Assoclation. The | principal business transacted at the meet- ing, McCormick says, was the fixing of | a special rate for the Epworth League al- | convention, which is to be held here in July. The round-trip rate from Chicago | will be $50, from Missouri River points $4 |and from St. Louis, Memphis and New | Orleans $57 5.

Fitzhugh of the Central Ver- mont road to succeed either Kruttschnitt or Fillmore. McCormick was not with the Hays party, but met Third Vice Pres- ident Stubbs, who did not discuss Fitz- hugh's prospective appointment. McCor- mick visited Houston, Tex., and was greatly struck with the evidences of pros- perity in the Lone Star State. Great re- sults are looked for in the planting of rice, which seems to thrive, though in a limited area.

[ | Through the explosion of a gasoline ma- chine which was being used yesterday morning at. W. J. Little & Co.’s planinz mill on Brannan street, between Fourth and Fifth, James Middleton and Patrick J. Kelly, two boilermakers, were terri bly burned about the hands and head, while Gus.Edmonds, was scorched about the face. While the mill was closed down on Sun- day the three men were endeavoring to repair the boiler, and were using the gas- oline machine to heat the under part of | it preparatory to welding on a patch. Ed- monds was superintending the work, and all three were gathered close about the machine, when the gas In the reservoir be- came ignited and exploded with great violence. The three mechanics were | hurled back and for a moment blinded by the force of the shock. Middleton and | Kelly, who were the most severely in | jured, were hurried at once to the Harbo- Hospital, where their injuries were at- tended to by Drs. Thrasher and Murphy They suffered intense pain. Although the heads of both were badly burned near the eyes, their sight was not injured. As soon as their injuries were dressed they were removed to their homes—Kelly to 52113 and Middleton to Fruit- Edmonds, who was not so badly Howard_street, vale. at 4063 Nineteenth street. It is not known positively what caused the gasoline machine to explode. It Is | believed that the reservolr sprang aleak, the escaping gas caught fire and the flame was thus communicated to the main body oL vapor. ST. PATRICK’S DAY WILL | BE PROPERLY OBSERVED Arrangements Being Made by Irish- | American Societies for Celebra- ! tion Nearly Completed. The St. Patrick’s day convention met in Knights of Red Branch Hall yesterday afternoon and received reports. from the several committees appointed to make all necessary arrangements for the celebra- tion.

The matter of electing four additional | trustees to take charge of the funds of the 189 celebration was discussed, and final action was deferred for two weeks. The convention before adjourning passed resolutions of respect to the mem- ory of the late P. J. Thomas. The executive committee of the Knights of St. Patrick held its final meeting Fri- day evening.

REMILLARD, OF OAK- LAND, VICTIM OF A PECULIAR ACCIDENT. SOLDIERS ATTACK POLICE OFFICER Patrolman J. W. Scott Is Reughly Handled by Uncle Sam’s Men. Police Officer J. W. Scott, one of the | new appointees to the force, is congratu- | lating himself that he is not occupying a slab in the Morgue. Late Saturday night he boarded a Clay-street car at the correr of Kearny in response to the cries of the conductor and found the latter surrounded by a half dozen soldiers, who were alm- ing blows at his head. Scott attempted to place the soldiers under arrest and they attacked him. One of them seizel him by the throat and would have sttan- gled him excepting for the conductor, | who, realizing that cte officer was “up against it as he expressed it, blew nis police whistle. Fortunately for Scott, Lieutenant Bird- sall and several of his men were passirg at the time, and seeing the struggle in the car they lost no time in going to their fellow-officer’s assistance. The soldiers, eeing them boarding the vehicle, hastily lighted and made their escape, with the exception of one, who gave his name David Roy. He vigorously resisted arre- and it was not until he was roughly ha dled that he consented to accompany his captors to the City Prison, where he was charged with drunkenness and disturb- ing the peace. Last night one of the officers from the Presidio visited police headquarters ani obtained statements frem Scott and the ]ancers who went to iis rescue. It is the intention of the military authorities to | make an example of the men. thus hopinz to avold similar occurrences in the future. The conductor is satisfied that if it had not been for the prompt response of Scot: nd the other officers he and the former vould have been serisusly injured if not { made subjects for the Coroner. Scott's throat is considerably bruised. He was almost choked to death. @ e e e @ THE CALL’S PREMIUM ATLAS. Call Readers are entitled to the privilege of securing the best Atlas published for $1.50.

SIS EXCLUSION MCTWILL PASS Congressman Kahn Dis- cusses the Defeat of Certain Measures. e Arrives Here With William Elliott, ‘Who Has Represented Charleston District in Congress for Fourteen Years. — “I have recelved assurances from a great many members in both houses that they will stand by California in its effort to have the Chinese exclusion act passed, and I have no doubt that it will become a law at the beginning of the next session of Congress.” These words were uttered by Congress- ‘man Julius S. Kahn, who returned from Washington, D. C., vesterday. Mr. Kahn was accompanied by Congressman Wil- liam Elliott of Beaufort, South Carolina, trict during the last fourteen years. Mr. Elliott and his wife have come to this coast to meet their son, who is an offi- | cer in the marine corps in Manila and | who has been invalided home. The son |is expected to arrive on the transport Beaufort, which is due shortly. | Congressman_ Elliott {s a leader on the | Democratic side of the House ot Repr | sentatives and is a member of the Ju- | dictary Committee of that body. He is one of the oldest members in Congress and is universally respected. “Such men as Senators Foraker and Lodge,” continued Kahn in discussing the restriction act, “have glven me positive | assurances that they will support the measure, 1 will make a strong effort (q fix the period of restriction at twenty years. The bill will surely become a law, though that period may have to be some- what reduced. “T was glad to see that the Senate ad- journed without taking action on the reciprocity treaties. The California dele- gation made a gallant fight to prevent their ratification, which would have frre- trievably ruined the citrus and dried fruit industry of this State. The resigna- tion of John A. Casson as Commissioner Plenipotentiary of the United States, hav- ing In charge the negotiations, is signfi- cant. It is safe to conclude that the Gov- | ernment will make no further efforts to | negotiate reciprocity treaties. “The failure of Congress to pass the transpacific cable, Nicaragua Canal and the river and harbor appropriation bills is to be deplored. I believe, however, that a sentiment In favor of the measures has been created which will help them mate- | rially next session. At least forty mem- { bers of Congress will come here next sum- mer and by their presence we will be e abled to show the necessity for great pub- lic improvements. Among those who will come are the members of the River and Harbor and Naval committees. Inside of two weeks we will have Congressmen | Packer, Polk. Dalzell and Gordon of Penn- sylvania; Hall of Iowa, Landers Steele of Indiana, Grosvenor and Southard of Ohio, and Dayton of West Virginia. “Secretary Long assured me just before 1 left that he was elated at the satisfac- tion expressed by the commercial bodies over the naming after this State of one of the new cruising battleships. Thess are | to be four in number_California, Penn: | sylvania, Virginia and South Dakota—and | they will combine speed with heavy fight- alities.” lnglr(.lu}(ahn expressed himself as being much fatigued over his trip and his la- | bors in Congress. He will leave early this | morning for one of the health resorts to take a much-needed rest. s s aa ! 2 IWNIOUS ABOUT B BANK BOOK The Wife of an Insane Man Thinks That He Was Robbed. — The wife of Charles Ure, who was ge- | cently committed to the Napa Inséne | Asylum, last night visited police head- | quarters and endeavored to ascertain | what had become of her husband's bank- book and other articles which he had with | him when he came to this city. Ure, who | has been married only a few years, left his home in Santa Rosa last Monday and | came to this city, after writing an affec- | tlonate letter to his wife, who was then | in the southern part of the State visiting | friends, informing her that he was about to visit San Francisco and would return home in a few days. After arriving here | the unfortunate man was found by a po- | liceman acting strangely at Sixteenth and | Mission streets, and as he exhibited symp- | toms of insanity he was taken to the City | Prison and afteward to the detention ward of the Receiving Hospital. When arrested (he had $16 in his pockets and a cheap | knife. The following day he was exam- | ined by the Commissioners of Lunacy and, | as it was apparent that he was suffering | #rom mental decay. he was committed to the Napa Insane Asylum. Saturday night Mrs. Ure, not knowing what had bgcome of her husband, and fearing that he had met with foul play, lost no time in coming to the city. After | arriving here she at once went to police | headquarters and Inquired about her hus- | band. She was surprised to learn that he i had been committed to an insane asylum, | as she had never discovered that his mind was deranged. Mrs. Ure cannot account for the disap- pearance of her husband's bankbook. She thinks it may have been stolen from him. Detective Anthony has been detailed to find the book.
