Deceased was born in Pittsburg, Pa., and entered the army in 1833. From that time until 1850, v:hen he emigrated to Cal- ifornia with his family, he was in the ser- vice of ‘the Government. During the preliminary stages of the controversy between the United States | and Mexico Major Singer was called to Washington, and after being given careful | | instructions was ordered to go to New | | Mexico and California to investigate and report on their resources. With but a emall force of about fifty rather inexperienced cavalrymen, new to the tactics of border warfare, to guard the $200,000 provided to defray the ex- penses of the proposed research from fall- ing into the hands of Mexican guerrillas, the major started. with more than one thrilling and perilous adventure, but on account of the caution as well as the coolness which were among the chief features of his character Major Singer accomplished the mission intrusted JGRAMBLE MADE BY WHITE RATS Score of Them Take Din- ner Together and Enjoy It.

The Supervisors’ Judiclary Committes reported yesterday in favor of designating | August 13, 1801, as the day for holding the primary eleation. Fromsand after 2 o'clock will be declared a municipal holiday for the purpose of enabling citizens to cast their ballots. The little party met | ol to him by the Government. His report was carefully prepared and contained val- uable information. It would have been recognized and appreciated more fully when laid before Congress but for the fact that the motive for the expedition and the need of his report had then become sec- ondary in the course of polities. Shortly after his arrival in California, in 1850, Major Singer engaged in mining, but his health failing he had to retire from that field. In 1853 he went to Marysville, then a flourishing city, and in the fall of | the same year he was. clected Justice of the Peace. He was re-elected to the same office twice, and shortly thereafter was elected Associate Justice of the County Court of Sessions of Yuba_ County, to which office he was re-elected to succeed himself until the court was aholished. In 1858 he was elected Mayor of Marysville. After his retirement from this office he practiced law until he reached the age of 75_years, when he retired. William Singer Jr. of the Southern Pa- cific l]aw deparment is a son of the de- ceasec pioneer. The funeral will take place to-morrow at 11 _a. m. from the late residence, 143 San Jcse avenue, thence to Mount Oifvet Cemetery, where services will be held in the chapel. JUNE 29, 1991. SUSSOORFF SENDS IV RESGNATION J. N. Elbert Succeeds Him as Head of Hospital. Superintendent of a County Institution Forestalls Plan to Dismiss Him. —— Dr. G. E. Sussdorff, superintendent of the City and County Hospital, forestalled his contemplated removal by the Board of Health yesterday by presenting his res- ignation, to take effect on July 15. The Hospital Committee of the board has been desirous of dismissing Sussdorf for the past six months, and Dr. McCarthy want- ed the resignation to take effect on July 1 instead of July 15. McCarthy contended that the interests of the hospital demand- ed a change in the management immedi- ately, but a motion to accept the resigna- tion to take effect July 15 was adopted. John N. Elbert, formerly Chief Census Marshal, was appointed to the position, which, under ‘the reorganization scheme, is separated from that of the medical de- partment. Arthur W. O'Nelll was appointed junior resident physician of the hospital at a salary of $100 per month. C. T. Miller, G. A. Weyer and William E. Stevens were appointed as the staff of the new Park Emergency Hospital at $100 per month each. The hospital will be un- der the immediate supervision of Dr. Bun- n‘Pll. chief of the emergency hospital ser- vice., John A. Brown was appointed chief food inspector at a ‘salary of $150 per month: J. Williamson, dairy inspector, at §75, Thomas F. Ford, bakery, bath and laundry inspector, at $75; J." T. Silvera, dairy inspector, at $75; Willlam H. Jor- dan, market inspector, at $75; Frank T. Fitzgibbon, assistant sanitary inspector, at $100, and Edward M. Coffey was ap- pointed statistician at a salary of $150, to succeed John Brown, appointed chief food inspector. The board abolished the positions of two clerks in the health office, and also did away with the city vaccinator. The saving in salaries effected is $3% per month, while the increase by the crea- ticn of new positions amounts to $175 per menth. Twenty ward tenders at the Coun- ty Hospital were also appointed at a sal- ary of $25 per month each. Convalescent patients formerly held the positions and were dismissed. James J. Bean, machinist, resigned and Jeremiah Fennell was appointed to the place. A report showed the cost of cleaning Chinatown was $6452 95. The salary of Head Steward Charles C. j Boucher of the Emergency Hospital was raised from $90 to $100 per month. Be- cause of the efficiency of the Emergency Hospital clerk, Mrs. Shelton, her salary was raised from $60 to $75 per month. The board adopted resolutions in which exceptions are taken to the accusations heretofore publicly made by Governor Gage against the board regarding the placing of the Chinese district In a sani- tary condition. The resolutions recite that the Governor's co-operation with the Fed- eral and municipal authorities is a suffi- cient retraction of the unkind things said by the State’s executive.

REGEIVES GIFT3 Double Surprise for Re- tiring Palace Hotel Buyer. Allan Pollok, for the last nine years buyer for the Palace Hotel and manager | of the catering department of the big | hostelry, severs his connection with the hotel to-day and will leave next Friday on a visit to Europe. On his return he will assume the management of the | Crocker Hotel, to be erected at once on | the corner of Powell and Geary streets. | The news of Mr. Pollok’s resignation | was a source of much regret to those | who have been assoclated with him in | the Palace Hotel, and they determined | to show their appreciation of his worth | as a’man. Yesterday morning the heads | of the various departments summoned | the retiring buyer to their quarters, where Victor M. Reiter, maitre de hotel, | on behalf of his associates presented Mr. Pollok with a handsome pair of binocu- lars, accompanying the gift with a few well-chosen remarks. Mr. Pollok replied | briefly, expressing the regret he felt at | leaving such pleasant associations. | Hardly had the heads of departments | left when a delegation from the gentle- men’s grill room of the Palace made their appearance. W. B. Telschow, acting as spokesman for . the part made a few pleasant remarks and presented Mr, Pol« lok with a handsome gold-headed cane. Mr. Pollok was greatly affected, but managed to voice his thanks for the gift and his appreciation of the feeling which prompted it. | During his absence in Europe, which will extend over a period of six months, | Mr. Pollok will visit all the famous ho- | tels of France, Switzerland, Germany | and Italy, for the purpose of gathering | such information and ideas as will prove of benefit to him in the management of | Mr. Pollok will return to San Francisco and will superintend the fitting up ana equipping of the Crocker. Mr. Pollok will be succeeded 3t the Palace by O. Rich, who has for twenty years been connected with the Grand Hotel. Mr. Rich is very popufar with (he} traveling public. ——————— FIRST MEMORIAL DAY OF THE NATIVE SONS | Graves to Be Decorated To-Morrow Forencon and Exercises to Be Held in Afternoon.
