THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, J'UNE_ 8, 1901. LAWSONS BOAT MAY BE BARRED New York Yacht Chub Will Insist on Old Rules. Independence Must Be Char- tered to a Member or Remain Out. | | | | | i NEW YORK, June 7.—Thomas W. Law- | son’s yacht, the Independence, will not | be allowed to compete in the trial races preliminary to the races for the Amer- ica’s cup unless she shall be chartered by some member of the New York Yacht Club, who will enter her for such events as she may be qualified to take part In. After a meeting of the challenge com- | mittee to-day it was decided to return | Lawson his proposition to charter the In- dependence to a number of New York Yacht Club men who compose the chal- lenge committee. The corryspondence was given out to-night by Secretary Oddie. On May 28 Lawson wrote to Commodore Lewis Cass Ledyard, saying he would at once charter, an interest in the indepen- dence to such person or persons as might be agreeable to the New York committee and would give such person or persons full controleend management of her dur- ing zr;§ match. Ledyard, replying on May 28, said: Any member of this club to whom you may elect to charter your yacht by a charter which | him ors them during its term the and management would be a mentioned in | person or _persons | . If you will refer u will find that this fully explained to | my letter matter bas you. Lawson, writing May 29, says he has in- | structed his counsel to draw up a form of charter, which he will submit to Led- yard, who replies, under date of Jjune 3, that it will not be necessary to submit the | form of charter. Offer Made of a Charter. Lawson, writing June 5, submits a char- ter, “which he says, “while it allows you to maintain your position that the Vessel defending the cup is the representa- | tive of your club, also allows me to main- | n position which 1 have held frnm‘ t, viz., that any American owning | t American boat may defend the hout giving away his boat.

Two of a Trio of Desperate Prisoners Already Dead. 1 TORONTO, Ont., June 7.—Of the three men, Fred Lez Rice, Thomas Jones and Frank Rutledge, extradited from Chicago to stand trial for the robbery of a bank in Aurora, Ont., Rice is the only sur- vivor to serve out the twenty-one years' imprisonment to which he was sentenced this morning. Two tragedies have put Jones and Rut- iedge bevond the reach of the law. Jones died from bullet wounds iver desperate attempt to ficers who were tran erring the prison- | from the courthouse to the jail last | ay, and Rutledge committed sui- day by jumping from the gallery ir the jail to the stone court, thirty feet below. While the carriage containing Rice, Jones and Rutledge and two constables was proceeding from the courthouse to the jail last Tuesday night an accomplice | threw three revolvers through the cab | window. The desperadoes evidently were expecting outside help, for they acted promptly. Securing possession of the re- volvers, the three men opened fire upon One constable was shot and killed. The officers returned the fire | and Jones was wounded in the groin and ; arm. He died at the hospital. A street car conductor whose car the burglars at- tempted to board struck Rutledge on the ers sensel Rice surrendered. To-day Rice and Rutledge were sen- tenced to twenty-one years' imprison- ment in Kingston penitentiary. Rutledge was being .taken to dinner with another | rge of one of the guards, abo . Suddenly he made a dash | and, springing up the stairway, mounted | to the gallery running around the inside of the jail, thirty feet from the floor. | Climbing over the railing he fell foremost | on the stone floor, fracturing his skull He was immediatély taken to the hos- pital, where he died without regaining | cunsciousnei MUCH-WANTED KIDNAPER MAKES BOLD APPEARANCE | Mrs. Silva Enters the House of Her Pursuer and Makes Dire Threats.

Shrieks appalling in their intensity, fol- lowed by piteous moans, drew an immense crowd to a vacant store at 1552 Market street yesterday. Investigation through the windows revealed the fact that a care- worn, polka dot cat was the sole occupant of the place. The crowd moved on, but the ‘shrieks were heard again from time to time and other crowds gathered. The case was reported to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and an officer was sent to get the cat out of the building. There was no means of ingress | and the officer hunted up the real estate | He had no key, but he said the Sheriff had it. The Sheriff had no key, but he referred the of- | ficer to the former owner. The latter said he had no key, but he guessed the Sherift had one. Meanwhile two other appeals camz from the neighbors that the charitable soclety protect them from the cat. It was time for action; further delay might imperil the success of the cam- paign. Followed by the office boy with a basket in which to carry the prospective prisoner, the officer advanced on the stronghold, armed with the majesty of the law and a hatchet. The door was shat- tered and the lonesome one was rescued anad carried to the animals’ home. —_—— SUIT FOR MARINE INSURANCE.—Suits were filed in the United States Circuit Court by the Nome Lighterage Trans- portation Company ggainst the Frankfort Marine Accident and Plate Glass Insurance Company, the Standard Marine Insurance Com- pany and the Associated Insurance Company to recover $12,250 alleged to be due as insurance upon the Catherine Sudden wrecked near Nome recently.

W. Clark’s right to office as Mayor of Sacra- mento have finally scored a point in the decision handed down by the Supreme Court yesterday. This decision declares that C. W. Cavanaugh, who was upheld by tke lower court in a refusal to testify concerning certain mat- | ters connected with Mayor Clark’s elec- tion, can be compelled to do so at the new trial which has been ordered. If Cav- anaugh's testimony is to be of the nature he intimated at the former trial, it is pos- sible that Mayor Clark's office may be rendered vacant. A The sult was brought by W. H. Bradley, an elector of Sacramento in the municipal election. In the lower court judgment was entered for Clark and Bradley appealed. Bradley charged thgt Clark secured his election by improper practices, violative of the purily of elections act. The spe- cific accusations are that Mayor Clark did not file a statement of election expenses, supported by his oath as required by law; that the statement he filed was false; that moeney was spent illegally by him for elec- tion purposes; that he expended an amount in excess of that allowed by law, and that to secure his election he promised one-ninth of the municipal patronage to C. W. Cavanaugh. Mayor Clark contends that under the constitution of the State he is not com- pelled to take oath as to his expenditures, and he is supported in that contention by the Supreme Court, under section 3, ar- ticle XX, of the constitution, which says: “Members of the Legislature and all of- ficers except such inferior officers as may be by law exempted shall, before they en- ter upon the duties of their respective of- fices, take and subscribe to the following oath or affirmation’’—regulation oath fol- Jows—"and no other oath, declaration or test shall be required as a qualification for any office or public trust.” The term “‘qualification’’ is held to mean acts per- formed after election, as taking official oath and executing the official bond. The purity of elections act requirg an af- fidavit attached to the list of e: nditures for election purposes, which is wholly out- siide the law as set forth in the constitu- tion. Judgment Partly Affirmed. The Supreme Court then affirms the judgment of the lower court, which dis- missed the matter of hiring carriages and buying banners and also the contention of Clark not having vouchers for the sum of $22 65 devoted to sundries and inciden- tals during the campaign. That part of the appeal s then con- sidered which states that Clark paid W. M. Sims $1900 for election purposes con- trary to law and that Sims then, by mu- tual understanding, paid B. W. Cavan- augh $300, Frank Daroux $400, B. W. Cav- anaugh for Frank Farrar $150 and ex- pended the balance of the sum among various other people. It was also alleged that Clark promised that if the election re- sulted successfully he would reward Cav- anaugh with one-ninth of the official patronage. The Supreme Court refers to the record of the previous trial where these questions are discussed. It is shown that when Cav- anaugh was on the witness stand he was asked by Mr. Shim, Bradley’s attorney, if he and Clark had ever discussed the ex- penditure of this $1900 for election pur- poses. Cavanaugh refused to reply, on the ground that it would be in violation of his — constitutional rights to be compelled to in- criminate himself. His answer, he averred, might degrade his character and conviet him of felony. Attorney Shim asked that Cavanaugh be compelled t&Ye- ply. The court upheld Cavanaugh in his refusal and exception was taken. Cavan- augh was then asked if he had received money from Clark or an agent. For the same reasons he refused to answer and he was again supported by the court. Fur- ther questions along the same line were asked and all met with like treatment. The Supreme Court shows that under the law Clark could have spent in his election $300 onlv and that proof of the expenditure of $1900 would therefore dis- qualify him from office. Clark’s official account showed a perfectly legal expen- diture of $289 15. The law is revFewed then to show that Clark would be subject to fine and imprisonment, as well as loss of office, if the further allegations are proved to be true. Cavanaugh Must Testify.” The Supreme Court then comes to the vital point—should Cavanaugh have been compelled to testify and shall a new trial be ordered, where he will be forced to make statements which he had intimated in his previous plea would prove most prejudicial to himself and the Mayor? The Supreme Court decided that a new trial must be held and that Cavanaugh must answer the questions he refused to answer before. The case of Cavanaugh was a test. Its settlement means that the others who were concerned with him will also have to testify, and thereon lies the hope of the “Land” tion that Mayor Clark will m office. this important decision the Supreme Court quotes from section 32 of the purity of elections act, which pro- vides that a witness is not liable to pun- ishment even if he admits his own guilt in trials regarding fraudulent elections. As he would not have suffered if guilty and certainly not if innocent, his refusal to answer was improper and the support given by the trial Judge was erroneous. Clark maintains that Bradley’s attor- neys concede that Cavanaugh’s answer would have been incriminating, and that the Bupreme Court is bound under the law to admit that concession, erroneogus or not. It is held, however, after a dis- cussion of the alleged concession that its intent was otherwise. For these reasons the judgment of the lower court is re- :'elrs]ea and the cause remanded for a new rial. : The decision was rendered by Justice Henshaw, with whom Justices Beatty, Temple, Van Dyke and Harrison concur- red. Justices Garoutte and McFarland dissent. Thelr opinion is as follows: ““We dissent from the judgment and re- versal and think the judgment of the Su- perior Court should be affirmed. We con- cur in the opinion of Mr. Justice Hen- shaw, except so far as it deals with the questions asked of the witness Cava- naugh, but we cannot agree to the con- clusion reached on that subject.” Mayor Clark’s tenure of office depends wholly on the testimony of Cavanaugh and the others named in the complaint. In case Clark is removed, ex-Mayor Land will return to office. This is the fond am- bition of the many opponents of Mayor Clark, who have harassed him with law- suit after lawsuit ever since he was elect- ed. Mayor Clark had to take office by force, but his ~osition has not been placed in very serious jeopardy previous to the decision of the Supreme Court, and should Cavanaugh's testimony differ from what is expected by his opponents, as is quite possible, no change will be made. WANTS WARRANT FOR FALSE IMPRISONMENT | Mrs. Prill Says J. C. Bothin Locked Her in Her Room While He Took the Furniture. Archibald Barnard, attorney for Mrs. Frances Prill, appeared at the Hall of Justice yesterday in search of a warrant | for the arrest of C. A. Helneman, a spe- cial officer, and J. C. Bothin, who, he said, had locked Mrs. Prill in a room while they despoiled her house. The story told was that when Bothin went to Japan recently he left his daughter in the care of Mrs. Prill and that when he came back he and Mrs. Prill quarreled over the amount he was to pay for the care of the girl. The re- suit of the quarrel was that he ealled at her house with the special officer and that she was locked in her room while all the furniture was taken away. Further, Mrs. Prill says she was left in the room until the next morning, much against her will. She wants the two men arrested on a charge of false imprisonment. The issue of a warrant was refused untjl the other side of the controversy could be heard. Bothin is a traveler for the American Salt Company and is a brother of Henry E. Bothin, manager of the Judson Company. GIBBS AND SANCHES ASK REINSTATEMENT Little Hope for the ex-Cashier—The Former Inspector’s Petition Is Taken Under Advisement. Two applications for reinstatement were made yesterday to Customs Collector Stratton. J. D. Gibbs, formerly cashier in the Custom-house, was removed from of- fice by the Secretary of the Treasury two years ago upon the report of Customs Col- lector Jackson that Gibbs was financially interested in an athletic club that gave professional prize fighting exhibitions ana that on one occasion he had placed the stake money in the Custom-house safe over night. Collector Stratton says that if Gibbs was removed by the Secretary of the Treas- ury because of his connection with the prize fighting club, and if it were true that Gibbs was connected with such a club, he could not see his way clear to reinstate him. This is Gibbs' second application for reinstatement. The other u]g::leluon was from Arthur 1. Sanches, a toms Inspector who lost his position two ‘yun ago upon his being convicted of a felomious assault upon a little girl. Sanches obtained a new trial and was acquitted a short time ago. The petition was taken under advisement. BURGLAR BORES HOLES N DOOR Daring Crook Operating in the Western Ad-" . dition. Enters Residence and Gets Away With Valuable Silverware. ——— The mysterious burglar who has been operating in the Western Addition, steal- ing vast quantities of silverware, con- tinues to enter houses regardless of the extraordinary efforts taken by the police to arrest him. His latest victim is Ben- jamin Lehman, who with his family oc- cupies a fine residence at 1511 Gough street. ‘While the members of the Lehman fam- ily ‘were asleep last Tuesday night the desperate crook bored at least twenty- elght holes in the side door and then in- serting his hand in the aperture puiled back the bolt. He had first attempted to pry open the door with a “jimmy.” Fail- 1ng in his attempt to dislodge the lock, he used a small brace and bit, cutting a hole sufficiently large to admit his hand. After entering the house the burglar went to the dining room and with the aid of his “jimmy” he broke open a large sideboard which contained the family gla.tg, valued at about $400. After helping imSelf to the most expensive articles of silverware the marauder went into the adjoining room and proceeded to search it for valuables. ot finding anything worth taking he started to leave the house, when he saw three hats hanging on a hatstand in_ the hallway. Taking them into the back parlor he tried them on, and as they did not fit his head, pre- sumably, he cast them aside. ‘While examining the silverware to make sure that it was genuine the burglar therein opened the shutters on the front windows to_allow the moon to shine into the room. By this light he had little dif- ficulty in distinguishing the genuine sil- verware from the less valuable. Shortly after the burglar had-left Mr. Lehman was awakened by a t dog prowling about in the house. ’I}finklng that the side door had been left open by the servant, allowing the dog to enter, he dressed himself and went downstairs to make an investigation. As he entered the dining room he was startled to find that the sideboard had been broken into d the silverware taken. He lost no time in communicating with the police, informing them of the burglary. y Captain Seymour has had nearly his entire staff of detectives looking for the burglar since then, but thus far they have been unable to get a trace of him. - ing the past two weeks the same man has entered at least a dozen houses in that immediate vicinity, stealing much valu- able property. Detectives Dinan and Wren, who are working on the burglary of the Lehman residence, are satisfied that the culprit is the same individual who entered the house of Rabbi Nieto on Bush street several nights ago and got away with a lot of silverware. s i il Mistaken for a Burglar. Herman Lukherath, who was arrested on suspicion of having murdered Robert Hislop Jr. and who was afterward re- leased for want of evidence, was arrested early yesterday morning on a charge uf drunkenness. = He was_ foupd prowling around in the vicinity of Grove and Web- ster streets by two policemen, who, think- ing he was a burglar, determined to watch him. After following him for sev- eral blocks and realizing that he was not bent on house-breaking, the officers de- cided to arrest him for drunkenness. He was held in the City Prison until 8 o’clock yesterday morning, when he was released along with a bunch of other inebriates. Burglars Enter Cigar Store. The police are looking for a brace of crooks who have been “working” the stores along Kearny street. Last Thurs- day morning they broke into the Mirror cigar store at 210 Kearny street and stole a quantity of cigars and cigarettes. On the same night they attempted to gain an entrance to the Elite saloon on Union Square avenue, near Kearny, with the aid of a “jimmy,” but were frightened off be- ‘tiora they succeeded in forcing open the oor. —_— Allowed the Burglar to Escape. Several nights ago burglars entered two houses on Oak street, but were frightened away before they could secure anything of value. While trying to enter the resi- dence of J. Woods, who lives on Oak street, near Devisadero, one of the bur- glars was discovered and held a prisoner. He claimed that he had mistaken the house for his own, and offered to prove that he was not a burglar by some letters which he had in his possession. Woods, at his suggestion, took him to a_street light, where he pretended to read a let- ter which, he claimed, he_had received from his mother in New York. ‘While ‘Woods was intently listening to a few af- fectionate passages in the letter the crook tooks to his heels and made his escape. Captain Seymour believes that the feliow is one of the two crooks whol\have been operating in that neighborhood. . e Tea at the Cottage. A tea will be given to-morrow afternoon at the cottage of the Little Sisters’ In- fant Shelter in Mill Valley, which has just shelter by the ladies’ auxillary. The la- dles are anxious that their friends should see the Emcdcal working ‘of their plan for ghe children, and they have therefore invited every one they know to be with them to-morrow afternoon. —_————— GRASS VALLEY MINING CASES.—Owen Willlams was a new witness in the United States Circuit Court yesterday.
