PREPARE TO WELCOME GENERAL JAMES SMITH RBeception Committee Meetsand Makss Arrangements to Greet the Noted Soldier. There was a meeting of the General James F. Smith reception committee last night at the California Hotel. Lieutenant Colonel J. F. Connolley presided and among those present were a number of cers who had served with the general n his Filipino campaigns. Dr. Willlam McCarthy, chairman of the finance com- mittee, reported that $575 had been col- lected, or rather promised. This sum is made up of $500 promised by Mayor Phe- lan from the hold-over fund of the col- lections made to welcome the homecom- ing California volunteers, $50 promised by the Governor and his staff, $25 to come from General Warfield and staff, $25 from General Dickinson and staff and $50 which will be donated by Colonels McDonald and Mills. Colonel O'Nelll stated that he had se- cured the services of the tugs Markham, Perkins and Irwin to go out and meet the transport and that if these were not enough the tug Caroline could also be se- cured. Representatives of the Native Sons, Young Men's Institute and League of the Cross Cadets were present and accepted an invitation to a representation on the reception committee. Colonel Connolley also stated that any other organizations who wished to send representatives to help welcome the distinguished soldler would be allowed to do so. —_—— Funeral of Washington Irving.

His name is Everitte St. John. It is sald he has come out here to accept one of the principal executive po- sitions in the Southern Pacific. What the position is has not been definitely deter- mined, but the guesses range from presi- dent down to general manager. When questioned on the matter yester- day St. John would neither affirm nor deny the rumor. Following the example of C. M. Hays, whose successor he may be, St. John would deliver himself of no positive statement in support of the rumor that he has come here to fill one of the highest places in the great railroad cor- poration, neither would he deny it. “I like newspaper men,” he said, “and generally do all I can for them, but on this occasion I must decline to be inter- viewed. I'll be here for several days—" ~But will you deny that you are to re- main here permanently?” “My dear fellow, I must decline to be interviewed,’ and St. John hurried away. Other raiiroad men, while denying ail positive knowledge of St. John being given an important place in the emiploy of the Southern Pacinc, seemed to consider such 2 possibility as being worthy of attention. They say that St. John is one of the best known and most competent men in the railroad business, that he stands high in the estimation of the Harriman people, that he has recently resigned a position carrying a salary of about $30,000 a year and that no one can find out why he re- signed. Moreover, there is no plausible reason for his being on this coast at this | dme other than one connected with the changes that are sure to follow upon the acceptance of the resignation of Hays. ‘Whatever the place St. John is destined to cccupy in the Southern Pacific it is sure to be a high one. He would not have resigned the vice presidency and general managership of the Seaboard Air Line and the princely salaries that go with those positions unless he had something gcod in view and there is nothing here outside of the office of president or gen- cral manager of the Southern Pacific that could compensate him for the change. 1t is hardly probable, however, that St. John will relieve General Manager Krutt- schnitt. While an expert railroad man, St. John has given more attention to the | traffic, political, executive and administra- tive parts of the business than he has to the operating end of it and though com- petent in every branch of the work he has hardly had that special training that is an absolute requisite in one who has to fill the place filled by Julius Kruttschnitt. This being the case, the only other places that are open to a man of his standing are the presidency itself or some specially created office that would have much to do with the freight and passenger traffic de- partments of the company. St. John was born in Connecticut in 1844. He first entered the rallroad business as a clerk in the ticket office of the Quincy and Toledo raflroad. From that position he rose rapidly through successive grades un- t‘l he finally was given the position of general manager of the Chicago, Rock Is- land and Pacific. From that road he re- signed in 1895 to accept che vice presidency of the Seaboard Air Line. About a year after his acceptance of tuat position his authority was further increased by hav- ing the responsibilities of a general man- ager added to his duties as vice president. From the Seaboard Air Line he resigned several months ago. ,REAPID TRANSMISSION OF AUSTRALIAN MATILS Special Train Out of Chicago Com- pletes Necessary Atlantic Con- nections for England. Marvelous rapidity in the transmission of Australian-English mails from Sydney to Liverpool via San Francisco was ac- complished by means of a speclal train | on the Lake Shore and Michigan South- ern Railroad yesterday. The mails that arrived on the Oceanic Steamship Com- pas sday morning will e y on the Campania of the Cunard line at noon to-day. When the Australian mall matter ar- rived here Tuesday morning the man- agers of the Oceanic Company conferred with Carlton C. Crane, Pacific Coast agent of the New York Central lines, and ar- ranged to make connection with a fast mail train leaving Chicago yesterday morning. This could only be accomplished | by means of a special. as the train left | the windy city at 8:30 2. m. and the mail would not be delivered there off the Bur- lington route until 9 a. m. One car and an engine left Chicago at 10 o'clock and overtook the fast mail at Toledo, Ohio, 244 miles distant, traveling at a rate of | speed of 14% miles an hour greater than the train in advance. ‘When the mail bags are thrown off at the Liverpool docks they will have beaten the record for time between England and Australia. i C. C. SHATTUCK MAKES AN ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE Retired Drayman Tries Ineffectually to Swallow Quantity of Cyanide of Potassium. C. C. Shattuck, a retired drayman, made an attempt at suicide last evening in the office of the California Investment Com- pany, 419 California street. He tried to shuffle off the earth by the cyanide of potassium route, a very fast one indeed, but upon biting off a plece of the deadly stuff from a chunk he had purchased he experienced a severe burning sensation about his mouth. He spat the stuff on the floor and then waited for the coming of his son, to whom he had telephoned some time before he attempted to swal- low the poison. Upon the arrival.of his son he informed him what he had done and the voung man had him taken immediately to the Receiving Hospital. As a precautionary measure the doctors pumped and washed out his stomach and he was subsequently removed to his home at 48 Portola street. The doctors are of the opinion that Shattuck did not swallow any of the poison, for a very ‘small quan- tity will quickly cause death. Business reverses and the attachment of his funds in bank by a creditor led Shat- tuck to attempt his life. His son, C. C. | Shattuck Jr., says his father has been | despondent for some time past. e e P Ui Mrs. Todd Talks About Eclipses. Mrs. Mabel Todd, distinguished both as a scholar and writer, addressed the pupils of the Hamlin School last evening, her subject being the Amherst eclipse expedi- tion. Mrs. Todd’s talk was most instrue- | tive and delightful, and the young ladies | of the school and’ their many friends, present by special invitation, enjoyed it greatly. Mrs. Todd told of her recent experience in Sumatra and also graphical- ly described the three other total eclipse expeditions to which she was fortunate enough to be attached. — e | Lottery Ordinance Is Valid. The Supreme Court yesterday estab- lished the constitutionality of the ordi- nance passed by the Board of Supervisors of Ban Francisco which declares it unlaw- ful to be in pogsession of lottery tickets. | The Supreme ‘Court held that the ordi- nance did not violate the constitution of the State. —_————— ‘Will Reappoint Knowlton. The Board of Education will reappoint Ebenezer Knowlton to his position as vice principal of the John Swett School, from which he was suspended for one year from September 15, 1900. —_——— Beware of of unscrupulous dealers who refll Jesse Moore bottles with inferior goods. ¢ THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, MAY REPRESENT |WHAT RYFROGEL THINKS OF GAGE| Says Governor of State Lacks the Instincts of a Gentleman. Bacteriologist Is Surprised to Learn That He Had Been Shadowed. “‘Governor Gage has not the instincts of & gentleman, and I am not a bit surprised to hear that he had my footsteps dogged through Chiratown by hired shadows,” said Dr. Ryfkogel yesterday when In- formed that the State Board of Examin- ers were passing on bills for the services of operatives who shadowed him and the other physicians employed by the Fed- eral authorities to examine into the health conditions of the Chinese quarters. “‘Morse’s men must be very good at the shadow game, for this is the first I nave heard of them. I have not the least ldea why the Governor or the people to whom he tenders good billets should pursue the course they did except that they thought that I was going about among the Celes- tials inoculating them with the plague bacilll. I am rather inclined to think, though, that it was done to give some of his political ‘cronies, many of whom are fit only for such work, a chance to get their hands into the money appropriated by the State. They earned their money very easily, for most of my work was laboratory work and during the whole time that I was engaged at it I do not believe that I made a half dozen trips through Chinatown. “I have a bill of $250 against the State which has never been paid, in fact I have been informed positively that it never will be pajd. The only reason I can assign for that small trick is that the conclusions I formed regarding the presence of the plague in Chinatown did not coincide with those formed by the Governor and his myrmidons. Dr. Mouser, who worked exactly the same length of time on the same class of work that I did, but who arrived at a conclusion which differed with mine, put in a bill for three times the amount and was pald without question. ““I shall not lose any sleep worrying over the despicable trick of the Governor. I do not suppose, however, that the knowl- edge that his corner grocery political tac- tics have been discovered will cause him any unrest.” CHARLES CARSON DIES SITTING IN A CHAIR Son of a Popular Clergyman Winds Up a Brief Career of Dis- sipation. Charles Carson, a crisp maker, was found dead yesterday morning in Traver's livery stable, at 263¢ Mission street. Carson was a son of the late Rev. A. N. Carson of the Presbyterian church, cor- ner of Twenty-third and Capp streets, and fell heir a short time ago to some prop- erty left by his father, since' which time he had been engaged in a career .of dissipation and squandered all his sub- stance. He had been making his living recently as a_crisp maker and slept in the stable. At 8 o'clock yesterday morning J. J. Traver, proprietor of the stable, went into his room and found Carsun dead, sitting in a chair. Carson was 30 years: old, a native of New York and married. The body was removed to the Morgue. An in- quest will be held. —ee————— Actress Sues for Salary. The trial of the suit of Lorena Atwood, against Belasco & Thall, managers of the Alecazar and Central theaters, for $150, al- leged to be due as salary for two weeks, was begun in Justice of the Peace Dunn’'s court yesterday. Miss Atwood alleges that she was discharged without due notice. The managers assert that she was given the regular two weeks' notice. —_———— Gillespie Decision Postponed. When the case of George D. Gillesple, charged with the murder of W. F. Griffin, one of his roomers, on August 20, was called in Judge Conlan’s court yesterday the Judge said he was not prepared to give his decision and continued the case tiil this morning. FAMOUS CROOK NOT A FIREBUG Tommy Wallace, Ac- cused of Attempted Arson, Is Released. Became Noted Through Con- nection With Theft of Painting “Elaine.” Tommy Wallace, the noted crook, was arrested early yesterday morning on sus- piclon of having attempted to set fire to a lumber yard at Mission and Spear streets. He was discovered behind a pile of lumber with a lighted match in his fingers, and as it was thought he was ing to set fire to the place he was taken into custody. After being locked up for several hours Wallace satisfied Captain Seymour that he was not bent on committing arson and he was re- leased. ‘Wallace is one of the most famous criminals in the country. He first came to the notice of the police of this city when he stole the celebrated painting “‘Elaine,” which was on exhibition at Morton and Kearny streets. Wallace was assisted in the theft by two well-known Eastern crooks. After stealing the paint- ing Wallace hid it in the rear of a house on Mission street, where it was found by Captain I. W. Lees. X Before his capture could be effected ‘Wallace left the city and went to Min- neapolis, where he was engaged to marry a very respectable young woman. Some time afterward Captain Lees h&rpened to be in Minneapolis and he recognized Wal- lace. He brought him back to this city and charged him with the theft of the painting. After a short trial he was con- victed and sent to San Quentin for four- teen years. He served only five years of his sentence, however. After being released Wallace went to Portland, where he was arrested for breaking a show window and stealing a large jar containing over $100 in nickels. For this crime he was sentenced to five years in the penitentiary at Salem. He was discharged a few years ago and since then he has been arrested on a number of occasions for helping himself to the prop- erty of others. JUDGE DE HAVEN MAKES AWARDS IN PETERS CASE Liability of the Steamboat in Damage Cases Fixed at Six Thou- sand Dollars. United States District Judge de Haven yesterday handed down an opinion in the matter of the limitation of liability of the river steamboat J. D. Peters in the matter of the collision with the Czarina in San Francisco Bay November 2, 1868. He fixed the value of the Peters at $ and made the following awards: Eight hundred dol- lars to the Ship Owners’ and Merchants’ Tugboat Company, $800 to M. P. Lesher, a passenger, and $12,000 to the John D. Spreckels & Bros. Company. The tug- boat people are to be paid in full and the remaining awards are to be made prorata on the remaining $5200 of valuation. Judge de Haven finds that the J. D. Peters was in a seaworthy condition and her master and pilot competent officers, having been such for twenty years. Hence, under the Harter act, express companies and others having freight on board were not entitled to recover. The representatives of the Chinese who wers drowned have produced no evidence to show that they would have benefited by the lives of the dead men or that they suffered any loss by reason of their death. —_—e————— Heath Receives the Appointment. The Board of Works yesterday appoint- ed Benjamin Heath Jr. chief of the Bu- reau of Streets to succeed C. E. Thomas, who resigned because he falled in the civil service examination. Frank Sheerin appeared to have the inside track for the lace and he was backed by Mayor Phe- Pan “who wished to reward him for po- litical _services. Commissioner Mendell however, could not be induced to cast his vote for Sheerin. Mendell insisted on Heath receiving the position and when Manson returned from his vacation he cast his vote for Heath. Heath was a surveyor in the employ of the Market Street Railway Company.

Yours to-day ROBERT WHITNEY WILL MEET BELL South Against North for the First Place in Singles. Play in the singles tournament was completed yesterday down to the final round, and as a result R. N. Whitney of San Francisco and Alfonso Bell of South- ern California will play in the finals (his morning. The winner will meet Champlon George Whitney on Monday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock for the champlonship of the coast. As was expected, by far the best and most stubbornly contested match of the tournament was between Grant Smith and Bell. This was the only match in either tournament that required the full five sets to settle the question of suprem- acy. Bell won 2-6, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3, 6-0. The winner was a strong favorite, but he came very near losing to his tall opponent. Smith won two sets out of three, handily, but the many long and hard matches in which he played on the two previous days left him in poor condition toward the end. Bell was perfectly fresh, having played but four sets during the week, while | Smith played twenty sets on Wednesday and Thursday. Bell was very nervous and probably not at his best, while Smith was perfectly ccol and confident. The first set went to the latter, 6-2, rather easily. In the second set the loser also had a lead, but his opponent braced and won out, 6-3. In the third set Bell led at 2-0, but Smith ran it up to 5-3 in his favor and won out The first part.of the fourth set was ciose, but Smith soon began to fly signals of distress and from then on everything went Bell's way. It was rather an un- satisfactory ending to such a good match. Both players ran in on their service, and it was a constant fight for the net. The next match in the second round was between Harold Brayley and Reuben Hunt. Hunt was expected to win, but the match went to Braley, three sets out of four. The score was 6-4, 6-4, 9-11, 6-2. 1. Sinsabaugh, who played a star game in the doubles tournament, was a strong favorite over Percy Murdock, but the latter won in straight sets. The score in favor of Murdock was 7-5, 6-3, 6-3. Sinsa- baugh was troubled with a stiff knee. The first match in the semi-finals was between R. N. Whitney and Harold Brayley. The latter, on account of his rather easy victory over Hunt, was con- sidered to have a splendid chance of beating Whitney, but it was soon appar- ent that the local man would win. Whit- ney played a steady chop game and took the first two sets easily, 6-2, 6-0. In the third set Brayley improved considerably and won, 6-3, but the final set went to ‘Whitney, 6-3. Brayley was greatly handi- capped by blistered feet. In the other match of the semi-finals A. Bell was opposed to Percy Murdock. The latter played a good game and drove well, but Bell, who was more confident than in the morning, won in straight sets, the score being 6-3, 6-4, 6-3. Whitney and Beil will play the final match this morning at 10 o’clock. Unless Bell is capable of playing a better game than he put up yesterday Whitney should win without very much difficulty. In the afternoon, at 2:30, the champiom- ship match_in doubles will be played be- tween the Whitney brothers, the present coast champions, and McGavin and Smith, the winners of the tournament. The Whitneys will probably win, but the youngsters play a strong game and the match will be very close. CELTIC CELEBRATION AT GLEN PARK MONDAY Committees Hand in Reports on Final Arrangements for the Festival.

WOODWORTH LANDS N JALL San Mateo’s Sheriff Cap- tures Long Beach Fugitive. Special Dispatch to The Call. REDWOOD CITY, Sept. 6—Dr. Orrin L. Woodworth, who is accused by John Kempley of Long Beach of having stolen $29,000 in $100 bills from the latter yester- day, was taken into custody by Sheriff Mansfield here this afternoon. According to the story of the theft as given in The Call this morning, Wood- worth paid Mrs. Kempley $29,000 yester- day, that being the purchase price of a ranch in JTowa. Kempley at the time was absent in Los Angeles. A deed had al- ready been prepared and upon the pay- ment of the money was delivered to Woodworth, Mrs. Kempley placed the money in a trunk and left the house for a few moments, and when she returned both the money and Woodworth were gone. Sheriff Mansfleld this morning received a dispatch from Sheriff W. A. Hammel of Los Angeles County asking him to ar- rest Woodworth, who, it was believed, had gone north. A stranger arrived hers on the morning train and left a few par- cels at the depot. He then purchased a ticket to Palo Alto. From the descrip- tion of this man Sheriff Mansfield was satisfied that he was Woodworth. Dep- uty Sheriff Butts left for Palo Alto and returned on the 3 o'clock train. Wood- worth was on_board, and when the train reached here Woodworth alightéd to get his parcels. It was then that the Sheriff arrested him. ‘Woodworth was very nervous and was apparently laboring under some great mental strain. He denies absolutely that he took the money and says he wants the affair sifted to the bottom. He says that after he paid the money to the Kempleys he left the premises and was driven to the train_by a clergyman. He went to Los Angeles and just had time to catch the northbound train, intending to go Rast. He further declares that he immediately sent the deed by registered letter to Iowa to_be recorded. When arrested Woodworth had on his erson more than $1000 in paper money, 600 of the amount being in $100 bills and &he balance in bills of smaller denomina- ons. ‘Woodworth says that after he pald over the money and as he left the house he saw an old man on the place, a stranger to him. He has been camping at Long Beach with his father and sisters. Sheriff Hammel was notified of the ar- rest and will arrive here to-morrow to take Woodworth to Los Angeles. In the Divorce Court.
