12 POLICE WAITING FOR PROMOTION Civil Service Examina- tion for Wew Lieu-. tenants. e List of Aspirants to Be Fur- nished by Chief Sulli- E van Soon. BRSNS The examination by the Civil Service Commissioners of sergeants who aspire to be lieutenants in the Police Department, which has been expected for some months, will be held in a few days, and there i already much speculation as to who will be the lucky ones. Chief f3ullivan called upon the Civil Ser- | vice Cornmissioners yesterday and was as- | sured that the examination would be held | soon #nd that all they were waiting for | was a list of the sergeants who were pre- | paret. to undergo the test. The list will be furnished as soon as possible and the | date will be fixed. There are four lieu-' tenzunts to be appointed. At-present there | are six, but the charter says unequivocal- | 1y that there shall be ten, or two for each captain. In speaking of the matter yesterday the | Chief said: “‘Although there is no amount | set apart for ten lieutenants in the ap- | propriation, the charter is specific that | there shall be that number. I propose | that the charter shall be obeyed and there will be no difficulty, as enough money can | be saved to pay the difference between the pay of four sergeants and four lieu- | tenants. In the examinations merit and | Jong service will, of course, be a factor | in deciding upon the successful applicants in accordance with the terms of the char- ter. It is possible that the examination of corporals to fill the vacancies caused | by the promotion of the four sergeants | ' it will be held at the same time.” | \ There is also the possibility of the two | ranking next the four successful sergeants | | being promoted soon. It is no secret that | Captain Gillen, who got a three months’ reprieve at the last meeting of the Pen- sion Commissioners, is not improving in health, and his retirement at the next quarterly meeting on a pension is almost & foregone conclusion. It is also reported that Captain Spillane will never be fit for | active duty again and he will also be re- | tired on @ pension. That will leave two From Southern Pacific et THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, JULY 24, 1901 EX-SENATOR THURSTON TO BE CHIEF COUNSEL FOR HARRIMAN SYNDICA Jefferson Chandler of Washington, D. C.,to Be His Associate, With Headquarters in New York---W. F. Herrin Will Probably Be Given Choice of Resignation Law Department or Employment in Minor Capacity TE ever that may be, the change will mean the tumbling about Herrin's ears of the beautiful political structure which be has erected and at the portals of which he still stands guard in spite of President Hays' dictum that the fascinating game must be played no more. Even-should Herrin swallow his chagrin and remain with the railroad to settle with farmers for cows killed within his bailiwick he will not be a power in politics under the new regime. John M.

DCAL railroad men received pri- vate information from New York yesterday that a reorganization of the staff of attorneys of the Bouthern Pacific is to take place in the near future. The law departments of the Union Pacific and the Southern | Pactfic will be combined, it is said, with | former United States Semator John M. | Thurston as chief counsel. | Associated with Thurston will be Jeffer- |son Chandler of Washington, D. C. RESIGNATIONS OF THREE TEACHERS ARE ACCEPTED | Board of Education Making Arrange- | ments for the Vaccination of Poor Children. The Board of Edueatioh yesterday ac- cepted the resignations of Miss Tillie Mc- Carthy of the Lincoln School, Miss C. A. Glida Agasst: s e o, Ty "% Mi% | Chandler and Thurston have offices to- School, who has been on a two years |gether in Washington and will open of- fices in New York, from which they will take care of the legal interests of the | Harriman railway syndicate. Ex-Senator Thurston was a railroad at- torney long before he became a Senator. While he still lived at Omaha he was as- sistant attorney for the Union Pacific Rallway, which position he held from 1877 to 18%8. In 1888 he was made chief counsel for the Union Pacific. Thurston was elected Senator in 1895, and his term expired March 2 of this year. Since his retirement from the Senate Thurston has f absence. Miss E. Cleary was succeed Miss Glidden and Miss E. Foley was transferred from the Fairmount School to the place vacated by Miss McCarthy. The board adopted a resolution provid- | ing that free vaccination of school chil- dren will hereafter be confined to the chil- dren of poor parents, and it will be neces- sary for these to obtain from the princi- pals of the schools they attend certificates | entitling them to such vaccination. e Searching for Missing Wife. leave eppointed to F. S. Spaw is searching anxiously for his wife, who left Oklahoma City May 14, expecting to meet her husband here. Spaw went from Fort Worth, Tex., to Los Angeles :instead of securing work there with the Southern Pacific. He wrote to his wife here, telling her of his change in plans and arranging for her to join him in Los Angeles. Spaw received no answer. Then he was taken sick and was in «d four weeks.

The City Attorney advised the Board of Public Works yesterday to orcer the removal of a brick wall which extends over eighteen inches upon the sidewalk on eddy street, rear Franklin, The wall was built by Harry and Charles Bush under the claim that such privilege was granted by the Supervisors by special res- been preparing to devote most of his en- | ergles to the interests of the greatest of raflway syndicates, and he and Harriman have been frequently in consultation in New York. Senator Thurston was in San Francisco at the time of the Presidential visit, but the significance of his visit was not then understood. Recent consolidations of of- fices, where possible, of the Harriman rail roads, however, have set the “wise ones™” thinking, and the reports from New York leave little doubt that their guess of a hake-up coming in the Southern Pacific law department is correct. When the change takes place W. F. Herrin will no doubt be given the choice between ‘reslgnation” and relegation to obscurity as local counsel for the South- ern Pacific. Those who know Herrin best say he will never submit to the humilia- tion of such reduction in rank, and they assert that the appointment of Thurston <+ the fortunes of Herrin and his associates, every politician, local boss and country editor who has done politics with the rail- road as a chief means of his support will feel the ground crumbling beneath his feet when an Eastern attorney with New York headquarters is given Herrin's pres- ent prerogatives to add to his authorit lntother portions of the Harriman syndi- cate. Jefferson Chandler’s name is well known all over the United States. For many years Chandler was a prominent figure in politics. He was a leading politiclan in 1876 when Hayes was nominated for the Presidency, and it was he who, as chair- man of the Republican National Commit- o — — EX-SENATOR JOHN M. THURSTON, WHO, ACCORDING TO INFORMA- TION, WILL BECOME CHIEF COUNSEL FOR HARRIMAN RAILWAY SYNDICATE, INCLUDING THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC. — — Thurston would have an eye to it him- self, and his lleutenants would probably be some of the lesser lights of the South- ern Pacific staff—men who are hand-in- glove with the Colonel Bradys, the Lon Henrys and the Eddie Wolfes of politics. No other prospective change in the or- ganization of the Southern Pacific as a part of the Harriman system could create as much consternation and uneasiness lo- cally as the transfer of the headship of the law department to New York. Aside tee, sent out the famous message, “Hayes has 186 votes and is elected.” For several years “Jeff’” Chandler rep- resented a Missouri district in Congress, and was prominent in the prosecution of the star route cases. More recently he has been a corporation lawyer and lobby- | ist in and around Congress and the de- partments. He has been identified more or less with Pacific. railroad legal mat- ters, although he has never been regular- ly in their employment. He is 65 years of will mean the retirement of Herrin.

The petition consists of a re- sume of the case and affidavits by each member of the commissio® alleging that Judge Cook cannot give the fair and im- ga{téal trial to which they are legally en- tled. George Maxwell, former secretary of the board, was also secretary of the benevo- lent association. When J. W. McCarthy was appointed to succeed him he refused to give over the books and funds of the association. Action was brought to com- pel him to do so, and the matter has been a source of considerable litigation. On July 15 the Fire Commissioners petitioned Judge Cook for a transfer on the ground that he was prejudiced in favor of Max- well. Three days later the petition was denied and the case set for trial on July 29. The board then sought the assistance of the Supreme Court. The writ of prohibition is made return- able on August 5. The court in bank will then_decide the justice of the claim of the Fire Commissioners that Judge Cook is biased and !s therefore disqualified from passing judgment in the case. Rescued by Life Savers. Philip Butler and Joseph Brown, while fishing off a cliff north of the Cliff House yesterday, were washed into the bay by a breaker.” Word was sent to the life-sav- ing station and the men on duty launched a boat and rescued the imperiled fisher- men. The men were hurried ashore, and Butler, who received injuries about the spine, was sent to the Emergency Hospi- tal. Brown, who escaped with a wetting, went to his'home on Chestnut street. .

L R Office Is Deserted and His ‘Whereabouts Is Unknown. g The many creditors of Frank W. Butter- field, the auctioneer, of 624 Market street, are anxious to meet him. Butterfield dis- appeared about twe weeks ago, and since his exit there has been wailing and gnash- ing of teeth. Butterfleld, it is alleged, owes a large amount of money. It is saild by his friends that the city became too tropical for him. He formerly occupied offices in the headquarters of Bovee, Toy & Sonn- tag, but when a Call reporter visited the offices of that firm yesterday it was stated that Butterfleld had been absent for two weeks and that it was not known where he was. Among the creditors that mourn But- terfleld’s departure is R. H. Winston of 1026 Market street. Winston claims that he has a clear case of embezzlement against Butterfield. He claims he ad- vanced the auctioneer $500 with which to buy the furniture for a flat, and that he received no returns. Charles Ehn of 47 Post street also is loser to the amount of $700 which he ad- vanced to Butterfield. Among the other creditors are an attache of the Railroad saloon, who is a victim of the “rush act’” for $40, and a poor woman on California street, whose furniture Butterfield sold for and for which he has made no return. } _ Butterfleld also sold at auction the Wal- dorf Hotel, at 417 Powell street, and owes more than $200 balance on this transac- tion. The missing man’s relatives are not anxious to make a settlement, and some racy developments are to be expected. } SIXTEEN MORE LETTER CARRIERS APPOINTED Lucky Substitutes, Taken From the Head of the List, Promoted to Salaries. In accordance with permission recelved from the Postmaster General to add six- teen third-class letter carriers to the present force in this city, Postmaster Montague yesterday appointed the fol- lowing named from the substitute list to take their new positions on August 1: Willlam J.

These will receive in their new positions $600 for the first year, $:00 for the second and $1000 for the third year and after. Substitutes receive no regular salary, but are awarded the same pay pro rata as the men for whom they are substituted.

Now it is believed that he was responsible for several other crimes. He lost his last po- | sition with an oil and land company for alleged discrepancies in his accounts. Yesterday morning Mrs. Dodge placed two rings in the drawer of a dresser in her room_and left her house to call on friends. When she returned she discov- ered that one of them, set with two dia- monds of high value, was missing. She immediately reported’the matter to Cap- tain Seymour, and_detectives were sent to her home. A Japanese engaged in cleaning rooms was first questioned, but his statements satisfled the police of his innocence. It was then learned that Wall- ing, who rents a room in the. same flat, had been seen in Mrs. Dodge’s apart- ment during her absence. He denied his guilt when accused and became indignant when he was told he would be searched. While the detectives were examining Walling’s clothing he was observed to throw his hat on the bed. As he did so the two diamonds, having been removed from the ring and wrapped in a paper, fell to the floor. Walling had concealed the stones up his sleeve and attempted to discard them with his hat. The paper used in wrapping them was a leaf from a notebook in his possession and furnished further evidence. . Since Walling has been in the house Suicide Identified. Mrs. Timothy Murphy of 37 West Mis- slon street, accompanied by her 14-year- old son, Leo Murphy, called at the Morgue yesterday afternoon and ldenti- fled the body of the man who committed suicide at the Seattle House last Satur- day night as that of her husband. Tim- | othy Murphy, a locomotive engineer. Murphy left a’note notifying the Coroner that he had taken carbolic acid and signed his name as ‘Meyers.” Mrs. Murphy said that whenever ber husband went on a spree he went by the name of Meyers. He had been working for a firm in Ukiah and came down to this city a few days before the Fourth of July. Since that time he had been drinking heavily. B — Voters, Attention!
