12 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 21, 1901. hY3 GOES AGK T0 THE GRAND TRUNK Will Return to His Old | Position as General Manager. Also to Act as Vice President | of Big Canadian Cor- | poration. g e ) C. M. Hays, whose resignation as presi- | dent of the Southern Pacific Company is now in the hands of Harriman, awalting | the final action of that gentleman, has al- | ready provided for his future. Upon | severing his connection with the Southern | Pacific he will return to the Grand Trunk | Raflway as that road’s vice president and | general manager. Much speculation has | been indulged in as to the possible future | of the gentleman whose career as the head of a great corporation on this coast has been so brief. The Call, which has | foretold all the incidents that have led | up to his retirement, is now in a position | to & state what will be the se\x‘.ngi final act in this comedy of the rails. | m absolutely authentic sources it is | that as soon as Hays decided | p would be taken he com- | make plans for some other himself. His fancy turned to Trunk, his old love, and his ontrolling interests of | being kindly received | overtures to the o that organization reed to accept his old position as soon as his connection with the Harriman people should have ceased.

Duncan, the Inno- cent Cause, ST Thomas Galvin of 711 Webster street, a special officer in the employ of the Curtin Detective Agency, was accidentally shot | and killed last night by G. M. Duncan, his chum and fellow officer. The mecn were detailed to watch the barn of the Philadelphia Vinegar Works at Seventh and Bryant streets, where the shooting decurred. Galvin, earlier in fhe day, had purchased a cheap revolver. Something went wrong with the mechanism and when he and Duncan went to work about 6 o'clock they took the revolver to pieces for the purpose of locating the break. Duncan left his friend putting the weapon to- gether and went into an adjoining room, where there was no light. yalvin fol- lowed a few seconds later. “I can’t get this thing to work. You see what you can do with it,” he said, as he handed the pistol to Duncan. Duncan reached for it in the dark, but before he had secured it Galvin loosened his hold and the wea- pon fell to the ground. It exploded. The bullet struck Galvin in the stomach. Duncan rushed to the sidewalk, where he tried in vain to attract the attention of the police by blowing his whistle. He then telephoned for the Emergency Hos- pital ambulance, but secured an express wagon before.its arrival and hurried his friend to the Central Hospital. Chief Surgeon Bunnell did what he could for the injured man, but there was no hope from the first, and Galyin died soon after leaving the table. Before dy- ing, however, he made a statement com- pletely exonerating Duncan. The stories of the accident as told by Galvin before he died and by Duncan when seen later at the Central Prison tally in every par- ticular. Both men are ex-soldiers. a member of the First California_and Duncan_of the First Washington Regi- ment. They were close friends in Maniia and renewed the intimacy after their reg- iments were mustered out. They entered Curtin’s service last Friday and at their particular request were detailed to work together. Duncan was locked up _last night, but will probably be released to- day. He is broken-hearted over the oc- currence. Galvin lived with his mother and broth- er at 711 Webster street. He was to have been married in the fall to_Miss Sarah Galvin was ADVERTISEMENTS.

B. F. Pearson is the name of the sui- cide whose strange ending in the Empress Hotel in Chicago was told in The Call of sterday. The key for safe deposit box 4 in the vaults of the Columbian Banking Company led to the establishment of his identity. The record showed that it was owned by B. F. Pearson, 219 Leavenworth street. . While President I. J. Truman knew nothing of the man’'s identity, the landlady at that address was able to fur- nish the missing links. ' “Pearson came to room with me last November,” she said, “and was one of the quietest roomers I have had during my twenty-five years’ experience in the business. He seemed always morose and silent and spoke but little about himself. Of an evening he would come in and talk to me, but his conversation had a most depressing effect, and 1 generally would find some excuse for cutting the visit short. He rarely talked about himself or about business, save to tell me he was connected with a money lending concern in the Phelan building. “During the last few weeks of his stay here he met a Mr. and Mrs. Harris of 206 West Seventy-second street, Chicago, where Harris has been employed for some ten years as a bookkeeper in a conserva- tory of music. imbued with the idea of going to Chicago, ten days before them, He pro- In the directory Pearson’s name appears as the manager of the Western Loan Company, 309 Phelan building. He went to that concern some four months ago and for a time his name appeared upon the door as manager, but was soon taken off. It was stated yesterday at the office of the company that no authority had gyer been given Pearson to assume that title. Pearson was a man about 31 years of age and a native of Spartansburg, S. C., where his parents still reside. At one time he was a clerk to Master in Chan- cery L. R. Hill, at present a financial broker in the Merchants’ Exchange build- ing. After Hill left his office and came to this coast Pearson joined the army and served the full term of his enlistmaent— three years. On his discharge he went to Los Angeies, where he earned a precar- ious livelihood as a solicitor. Finally he drifted to San Francisco and secured employment as a solicitor for The Call and later for the Bulletin. Finally Hill, who was well acquainted with his family, took him into his office as out- side man, and he remained with him until about four months ago., when he went to work for the Western Loan Company. At Hil'’s office it was said that as soon as Pearson got into his new place he wrote letters to Hill's customers in un endeavor to get them away from him. No Through them he became | Orpheum.

Captain Metcalf is known in shipping and business cireles the world over. He | came here in 1575 as master of the White | | Star liner Oceanic. The vessel was then under charter to the Occidental and Oriental Steamship Company and Captain Metcalf ran her between here and Hong- | kong until 18%9.

He destroyed all evidence of his identity, but oveiiooked the telltale key, which alone led to his identification, If he had thought of it he would probably have thrown the key away, too. He made no confidants of anybody and seemed to have but few friends.”” Prior to his departure Pearson destroyed a large number of papers and letters and told his landlady that it was doubtful if he would ever return to San Francisco. fonfefengofeefnfofonforfecon the Rev, McKinnon, W.

It is now made plain that the citizens of San Francisco paid the lion’s share of the expense of entertaining President and Mrs. McKinley in the residence of Henry T. Scott. This statement is due because the general public has entertained the idea that to Scott belonged all the credit. Something Hke $2000 came from the funds supplied by business houses and individ- uals for the good cheer dispensed in the Scott home, then known as the Executive Mansion, and was palid to a caterer, whose bill, with a slight deduction of $500, has sinée been approved by the finance com- mittee of the citizens’ reception commit- tee. The finance committee has just is- sued a report, signed by F. W. Dohrmann as chairman and H. U. Brandenstein as secretary, in which the disbursements for the President’s reception are stated, under Xzf‘l)rlnu;" headings, to have amounted to 187 40. The fact that the citizens footed the ca- tering bills when the illustrious guests were under the Scott roof is not specific- ally mentioned On the last the report. | page is an item of “hotel accommodations, $7434 65.” Members of the reception com- mittee who do not care to have their names published say that the 2000 is in- cluded in this sum. ‘Mr. Scott’s home was not a hotel, certainly,” so one of the members remarked, ‘“but the iliness of Mrs. McKinley made a long ~ residence there a necessity, We were perfectly willing to pay for the catering. It is not true that Henry T. Scott received any pay for lodgings, gas or heating. He made no charge for the use of his residence. It is true that the funds provided by subscrip- | tions defrayed the major share of the ex- | pense incurred. the outlay being for the caterer.” In the item of $7434 6§ mentioned above were included the hotel bills for the mem- bers of President McKinley’'s Cabinet, Governor Nash of Ohio and his staff and the Ohio Congressmen. The other items are included in a summary on the last page of the finance committee’'s report. The larger ones are as follows: Decoration and illumination of streets, $9010; entertainments, $26% 27: interior dec- orations, $1378 35: music, $1068 50; carriages and horse hire, $3043 8; printing and sta- tionery, $1127 71 The report contains the names of all subscribers to the fund for entertainment. “The Missouri Pacific Limited.” The only route having through sleeping car service between San Francisco and St. Louis daily. _Stop-overs allowed at Salt Lake City.
