12 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 7, 1901. THE PASSING OF “LITTLE GROGAN" Great Favorite in the Bohemian Days of San Francisco. Sad and Mysterious Story of a Life That Ended in Despair. O—— It was a little, very little, item in yes- terday's Call. So short was this tele- graphic bit of news that told of the self- inflicted death of an elderly man at Los Gatos, that it may have escaped the no- tice of those who hastily skim over the pages of their paper between the break- fast hour and the daily trip to the office. Yet to those of the old-timers who did see question it evoked a host of ren which carried them back to the pa'my days of bonanza excitement, when every man’s pocket was lined with “alifornia’s _golden Francisco was the of importance in the world of ier one being Paris. ) killed himself by taking prussic acid was Alexander k. or “Little Grogan,” as he was o the muitituge of friends that when everything was coming his n he was the minjature Seau mei of the world that lives by gas- the arbiter elegantiarum among who get up late. the article carefully dyved hair, pertectly rim figure and generally pearance, however, so in the effort to preserve s a complete mystery, and more intimate com- 1l but little concern- now can ing him S'hough his name was Grogan, of un- yet the man himself nental European, of Eurdpe he came to tell, as he spoke half anguages with equal fiuency.

All | the signs of the hour point to utter defeat | of the allied bosses. It is noted whhl special delight that several of the inde- | pendent clubs have welcomed fusion with | the district organizations of the league. Last night all the anti-boss elements of the Thir ixth ana Thirty-eighth dis- | tricts combined. This fusion will accom- | plish the defeat of the bosses in these two important districts. Last evening when Max Goldberg heard of the union of all the anti-bo's elements in the | Tairty-eighth he sallied forth to find John C. Lynch. Before midnight all the bosses knew that their last hope of divid- ing the anti-boss forces in the district had vanished. Consternation was created in the boss camp when the news spread that all the clements of good citizenship in the Thir- ty-sixth District were consolidating to down the boss ticset nex: Tuesday. 2 Last_night ten of the Republican Pri- mary League district tickets were filed in the Registrar’s office. The remaining tick- ets will be filed to-night. Boss Kelly filed six of his tickets yesterday. He is hav- ing trouble to find respectable men who are willing to lend their names to his ticket. Surprise was expressed last night that G. W. Kingsbury, proprietor of the Lick House had permitted his name to head the Kelly-Crimmins ticket in the Forty-fiftth District. Leading citizens who do not want their names associated with those of corrupt bosses should take the earliest opportu- nity to scan the boss ticket in their re- spective districts. Time remains for good citizens to withdraw from all sem- blance of sympathy dnr fellowship with olitical rounders. OO e of the Republican Primary League were densely thronged last night. The intense interest—an interest greater than ordinarily attaches to a general election—signifies an unusually large vote next Tuesday. Encouraging reports come from every district. It is regarded as sure that Kelly will be defeated in the Twenty- eighth District. Money is offered in wagers that Kelly and Crimmins will be beaten out of sight in the Twenty-ninth District. In the Forty-first District Dib- | ble is endeavoring to rally the demoralized boss forces, but is making-no headway. In the Thirty-fourth and Thirty-fifth districts the bosses dare not put up a ticket. The indications at this time vpoint to antl-boss success in the Twenty-eighth, Twenty-ninth, Thirty-first, Thirty-second, Thirty-third, Thirty-fourth, Thirty-fifth, Thirty-sixth, Thirty-eighth, -Fortieth, Forty-first, Forty-third, Forty-fourth and Forty-fifth districts. At the headquarters of the Primary League it is claimed that every dis- trict will be won. Candidates who were on the fence at the beginning are now seeking anti-boss favor. Forty-First District.

The Forty-second District Club of the Republican Primary League turned out in large numbers last evening at the meeting held at Golden Gate Hall on Sutter street. Colonel R. B. Treat, president of the club, presided at the meeting and J. E. Slinkey acted as secretary. The president impressed on the members present the necessity of being watchful on election day and seeing that all the requirements of the law were fully complied with. W. Lees, chairman of the executive committee, reported the following list of delegates selected for the forthcoming primary election: W. W. Sanderson, David E. Allison Jr., H. W. Hutton, C. T. Deane, Andrew H. Gulrin, George Lowenberg, R. J. Kline, E. A. Lelgh, R. B. Treat, A. W. Martin, James F. Norman, Melville Herman, J. L. Davidson, Norman H. Hurd, Charles Kaufman, L. C. Robinson, Dr. S. 8. Partello, J. E. Slinkey, W..E. Abadle, Charles H. Ward and Robert N. Risdon. The club unanimously approved the list of delegates, and Melville Herman asked that volunteers come forward to offer their services on election day and prevent the slightest chance of fraud at the polls. Captain Lees suggested that each dele- gate persomally work to secure two friends to be on duty at the polling booths in_the precinct. The question of holding a mass meeting on the night previous to the election was discussed and the matter was left in the hands of the executive committee for action. The club after adjournment proceeded to the meeting of the Republican Primary L!eagzxe at its headquarters, 930 Market street. Thirty-Sixth District. There was a large assemblage of the Republicans of the Thirty-sixth Assembly District at the club-room on Guerrero and Twentieth streets last night. The two branch clubs, the one at Twin Peaks and the one of the eastern end of the district, met and made their nominations of dele- gates. With the view of producing har- mony between the two clubs the Grand Hotel representation gave the eastern club the right to name its thirteen dele- gates, the other thirteen being named by a_conference committee from both wings of the clubs. This policy proved satis- factory to all parties. and all the dele- gates were nominated. They are: Charles Ellls, W. A. Colwell, James Duncan, M."C. Gimple, H. C. Tarbett, Robert Ash, W. H. Chapman, P. F. Ferguson, G. H. Ochs, ‘W. H. Kowntz, J. B, Mahoney, W. §. McDev- itt, M. F. Taylor, Ben F. Rector Jr., A. H. Merrill, O. M. Ratto, A. P. Van Duser, H. W. Mellondy, W. C. Trwin, L.

The Republican Primary League Club of the Thirty-eighth Assembly District held a largely attended and ‘enthusiastic meeting last night at Mascotte Hall, 1106 Gclden Gate avenue. Eloquent spceches were made by D. W. Burchard, . W, Hall, Z. T. Casson and Myrtile Cerf, presi- deri of the club. The speakers exhorted treir hearers to stand firm in the deter- mined effort to overthrow bossism, and judging from the frequent applause with wkich their remarks were received, clean Republicans of the Thirty-eighth Dis- trict will turn out in force at the primar- fes in order to secure good government. The following named candidates were placed in nomination as delegates to the municipal convention: Byron Mauzy, Myrtile Cerf, A. M. Currle, Emmet Barrett. F. W. Thompson, B. 'A. Sam. mann, J. J.

The Board of Fire Commissioners, hav- ing heard that Boss Rainey was prepar- ing to plunge the department into pri- mary politics, has issued the following no- John Flaherty, To the Officers, Members and Employes of the Sar Francisco Fire Department—Gentle- men: In view of the approaching primary and general election, we deem it our duty to call your attention to the strict provisions of the charter 0%, this city governing the political all persons connec st of ol ted with the Fire “‘Article XVI, section 32. No member of Board of Police Commissioners and no mgmg: of the Board of Fire Commissioners and no of- ficer, subordinate or employe of the Police De- partment or of the Fire Department shall be a member of any partisan convention, the pur- pose of which is to nominate candidates for office; nor shall elther of them, directly or indirectly, electioneer, by Boliciting_votes or otherwise, for or against any candidate for o!flcg at any election, or for or against any cand’date for nomination before any political convention, or for or against any candidate for delegate to such convention at any pri- mary election: nor shall either of them be a member of any committee, club or organiza- tion the purpose of which is to nominate or indorse candidates for office at any election; nor in any way attempt to influence or control such committee, club or organization while gominating or indorsing sald candidates; nor ake any part in the control, management or distribution of the political patronage of any public officer; nor shall any member of ejther of sald boards, or any officer, subordinate or employe of ether of sald departments, directly or indirectly, attempt to ‘control or in any manner influence the action of any officer, subordirate or employe of either of sald de- partments at any general, special or primary election; and no officer, 'subordinate or em- ploye of either of said departments shall levy, collect or pay any amount of money as an a sessment or contribution volitical pur- poses. Any person violating any of the pro- visions of this section shall be removed forth- with from his office or employment. If the violation be by a member of either of said boards the Mayor must remove such member; and if by an officer, employe or subordinate of either of sald departments, then the board whose officer, employe or subordinate has been guilty of such violation must remove such offi- cer, ‘employe or subordinate; and if such board fail or refuse to make such removal, then the Mayor must remove all members of the board who have so failed or refused.’ Acting upon our understanding of this sec- tion of the charter, the members of this board have refrained from joining any political club or similar organization, and in view of the strong language of the section referred to, it is our purpose to absolutely refrain from 'exer- cising or attempting to exercise any influencs for or against any candidate for office or dele- gate to convention, or otherwise, reserving only that prerogative of every American citl- zen—the right to vote. The commission will insist upon absolute compliance with the above quoted section of the charter by every officer, member and em- ploye of this department, and in dealing with any one charged with a violation thereot wiil enforce the law in letter and spirit without fear or favor, We quite understand how difficult it will be for those who have heretofore taken an active interest in political matters to passively watch the progress of events without participation. Having called your attention to the matter, we feel certain thaj you will be governed by the clear intent of the charter—which is the will of the people. We would also refer you to rule 4 of the general rules (page 40) of the department covering the same matter, viola- tlons of which will be punished with the full penalty. ‘The officers and members of the department are hereby instructed to report to the com- mission any infringement of this rule. By order BOARD OF FIRE COMMISSIONERS, ROLLA V. WATT, President. “The board intends to enforce its order.” ND CPROSTION FOR LD BOARD Committee. President Harrison and His Associates Heartily Indorsed. —_— By unanimously selecting Leighton, Edward Hale, Charles J. Nat Hewson, Charles Melrose and John T. .Cunning- |- ham to act as a nominating committee the members of the Olympic Athletic Club last night gave their officers and di- rectors- a hearty indorsement for the splendid work they have done during the past year. The selection of the réegular nominating committee will result in the re-election of the entire board. This is what the members want, if their action iast evening is any criterion. Five hundred members crowded the gymnasium to select a nominating com- mittee. It was expected there would be opposition to the regular ticket because certain members were said to be opposed to George James-as captain of the club. The friends of James rallied to his sup- port in such numbers that the opposition did not utter a word during the meeting. It is a foregone conclusion that the fol- lowing officers will be unanimously elect- ed at the coming election: Willlam Greer Liarrison, presiaent; Henry R. Mann, vice president; John Elliott, secretary; Henry B. Russ, treasurer; John. A. Hammer- smith, leader; George James, captain. Di- rectors—William Greer Harrison, Henry:| R. Mann, John Elliott, Henry B. Russ, John A. Hammersmith, George James, J. C. B. Hebbard, Harry V. Ramsdell, W. M. Bunker, O. B. Burns, William D. hea. President Harrison called the meeting to order and directed Secretary John El- liott to read the sectoins of the by-laws under which the meeting was held. The chairman’' then appointed H. J. Crocker and Mr. Thornton tellers. Their services were unnecessary, as there was but one ticket _in the field. Mr. Harrison was in favor of proceeding with the election, but the members were desirous of hearing from his lips how the club has progressed during the past year. He told of the obstacles that con- fronted the present board when they en- tered office, of unpaid bills and an out- standing indebtedness of $29,000; delin- quent membership and lack of credit. He then dwelt on the work of rehabilitation and told how the board had brought the club to its present high standing and of the improvements effected during the past r. ¥ Goionel Beck then placed Messrs. Lelgh- ton, Hale, Hewson, Melrose and Cunning- ham in nomination. Mr. Gleason seconded the nomination. Clement Bennett moved that nominations be closed and the regu- lar ticket was thus selected by unanimous vote. @ eiiimiiiriririiiiiiiiiieieh @ sald John W. McCarthy, secretary of the Fire Commission, yesterday, ‘‘and neither Kelly nor Rainey will have the services of any employe of the Fire Department on the day of the primaries or prior thereto. “The commission has gone so far as to deny vacations during the first half of August, that none of the men may get a period of freedom in which to do politics. “When a sick leave is asked the board requires the certificates of two physicians before the applicant’s request for a lay-off on account of disability is granted; then the person securing the leave must remain in his house during the whole period he is off duty. The officers of the department are required to call upon all sick men to see that they are so confined, and I visit them myself and report to the board. “From now until after the primaries every fireman in the San Francisco de- partment who Is able to perform his duties will be housed in and those who are sick must stay at their homes. No politics will be done by them. “President Watt personally issued or- ders_for the captains that their men should be allowed just time enough away from the houses on primary day, except in case of fire, in which to cast their bal- lots; that any man staying longer without permission would lose his place, and that any captain who gave a man leave to stay away longer on the day of the primaries would be removed. These orders are abso- lute and any disobeyal will result in a loss of position.” Chief Sullivan and his imme- diate subordinates have been cautioned to see that the orders are obeyed. There will be no fireman doing politics for the bosses on August 13.”" It is evident that the Phelan machine is not going to allow the Fire Department to be used by its old master, Rainey. The Phelan combine can never itself win the love of the men on the.fire company rolls, but it has the power at present to keep them lccked up when Ralney wants work done and seems determined to do it. il g SECRET OF SAN JOSE FIGHT. Gage, Herrin and Lynch Join Forces to Aid Mackenzie and Defeat Rea. When bosses fall out the honest masses get inside information. The fight for bess leadership in San Jose is disclosing some interesting facts. Jim Rea objects to being laid on tke shelf and inventoried as a back number by Johnny Mackenzie. It is com- mon knowledge in Santa Clara County that Mackenzie was once an understudy in Rea’s aggregation of push politicians. It appears that Herrin and Gage took quite_a fancy to Mackenzie. In smooth- ness Mackenzie excelled. He is as “smooth as salad oil,”” says Herrin. Lynch. Dibble and Jere Burke lose no opportunity to put in a good word for Johnny Mackenzie at railroad headquarters. Rea has been get- ting the rough end of every deal for some time past. The true business in regard to the San Jose fight is shown in a letter written by a well-posted politician. The Call is per- mitted to publish this extract from the letter: I get it from San Jose that the inside bat- tle going on in San Jose, where the push at both ends are most interested, is the coming city election. This, of course, is to be the preliminary to the Governor's contest a month or two later. Now Mackenzie has Greeninger programmed as his candidate for Mayor. Greeninger is now trustee at the Agnews Asylum, holding eince Budd's time. Gage has not reappointed* him because of his record. Gage has passed the word at the State Normal School at San Jose and at the Agnews Asylum to stand for Mackenzle against Rea. Rea don’t know this, but it is a fact. You could get this news by approaching the doctor at Agnews if that was not Gage's order to him. Also that Herrin has said Rea was expensive and that he had to renew Rea’s annual for Mackenzle. Mackenzie told Rea he was to get his. Herrin wants Bond of Santa Clara for State Senator to succeed Shortridge. Bond is Herrin's personal friend and Is programmed. Sam Shortridge told Herrin he wanted Charley returned, but he had Gage hand Charley the Loan Commissioner to let go for Bond. The owner of the San Jose Mercury—he is from Oregon—is Herrin's man. He traveled yith Herrin East in a private car and it is said that Herrin is part owner in the Mercury. These things Rea is just finding out and that ADVERTISEMENTS.

Considerable commotion was caused at the ferry last night by John McGee, a long whiskered old man, who scattered a crowd of several hundred people with a toy cap pistol and gave Offl;er Henne- rry a chasesfor several blocks. beMc)Gee is a laborer on the water front and last night imbibed considerable “fire water” in the maritime resorts. After leaving a saloon on East street, near Mis- sion, he was_attracted by the crowds at the ferry and soon leaned against one of the pillars observing the people come and go. A number of boys commenced to poke fun at him and, passing in a line, each pulled his whiskers, which were long and breezy. Finally the old man became desperate and pulling a glistening weapon from his pocket flourished it. The crowd of pas- sengers was just landing from an Oak- land boat and the pistol wielder darted among them threatening to send every- body to the Morgue. Women screamed and men rushed about pellmell. A call for the police was sent to the Harbor Sta- tion and Officer W. Henneberry respond- ed. When the policeman came upon the scene McGee started to run and did not stop until the minion of the law was upon him at Market and Drumm streets. Mc- Geo placed his_weapon against the offi- cer's breast and snapped the trigger, but he did no harm, for the gun that had ccared the crowd was only a toy cap pis- tol. To Educate the Deaf. At a meeting held last evening at the residence of Mrs. Jennie Bright Holden, eet, the San Francisco Associ- sfiztzla?'lflgoitrlhe Oral Education of Deaf Children was organized. The object of the association is to promote the educa- tion and welfare of deatf children. Henry Walker was electedjvrealdent of the asso- ciation, Mrs. H. J.
