Foote in her apartments at the Elysium, 566 Geary street, early Sunday morning. Gus Miller, a hackman, whose stand is on Market street, opposite Seventh, identified Galvin in the City Pris- on. His statement was that shortly after midnight Sunday morning he received a call by telephone to go to the Fulton House, on Larkin street. He drove there and met Galvin, who asked him to drive to 30 Fourth street. He drove Galvin there, the latter remai ing In the saloon from ten to fifteen min- utes. He came out and ordered Miller to rive him back to the Fulton House. Vhen they reached that place Galvin went upstairs and returned with Anita Clark, the woman who was arrested Mon- day, and an elderlx ‘woman who seemed to be under the influence of liquor. They entered the hack and Galvin instructed Miller to drive to the Elysium. There the two women went upstairs, and Galvin fol- lowed them. In about ten minutes Galvin and the Clark woman came hurriedly down stairs and got Into the hack, and ordered Miller to drive them to Market and Fifth streets. They all had a drink in a saloon there, and Miller then drove Galvin and the woman to the saloon at 30 Fourth street, where he left them. Mrs. Tillie Holly, who has charge of the Fulton House, identified Anita Clark as the woman who called there late Satur- day night with an elderly woman and en- gaged a room. She could not identify Galvin, as he was in the dark hallway ‘when she saw him, but says that her as- sistant, who is sick, will be able to iden- tify him. The detectives think it was the purpose of the Clark woman to rob Mrs. Foote in the Fulton House, but she had not thc nerve, and Galvin then went back to the saloon and got something which would make Mrs. Foote unconscious, so they could jointly rob her at the Elysium. Galvin positively refused to talk except to deny that he ever was in Miller's hack. ‘he Clark woman also declined to make any statement. Damage Suit Filed.

YOUNG EDUCATOR IS CUSEDR OF.THEFT AC - Richard Soutter, Late of Hitchcock School for Boys at San Rafael Is Arrested for the Larceny of Overcoat and Gloves * ICHARD SOUTTER, an educated young Englishman, is in the City Prison with a charge of petty larceny against him. TUntil a few months ago he was secretary in the Hitchcock School for Boys at San Rafael, one of the leading educational in- seitutions in the State. The articles he is alleged to have stolen are an overcoat and a pair of driving gloves. Soutter was a guest at the California Hotel, having arrived in the city from San Rafael a few days ago to spend the holi- days here. According to the police he was drinking at the bar of the hotel late Mon- day night with Patrick Henry Sexton, an- other guest at the hotel, who had his over- coat, with the driving gloves in one of the ockets, lying on the counter. Soutter ook Sexton to his room and yesterday morning Sexton complained to ‘the hotel clerk that his_overcoat and gloves had been stolen. He suspected Soutter and the police were notified. Detective Hamill was detailed on the EDUCATED YOUNG ENGLISHMAN WHO HAS BEEN ARRESTED AND CHARGED WITH THE CRIME OF PETTY LARCENY FOR TAKING AN OVERCOAT BELONGING TO ANOTHER. —_— case and on reaching the hotel he caused one of the bellboys to call Soutter out of his room. After Soutter left Hamill searched the room and found the missing overcoat under the wardrobe. The driv- ing gloves were found hidden in the grate. Hamill at once placed Soutter under ar- rest and when searched at the City Prison a pawn ticket for eight silver spoons and | two silver pins with the Baldwin Jewelr: Company, on which he got $21, was touns in_his pocket. Soutter is indignant at his arrest. His explanation s that he intended to return the overcoat and gloves to Sexton in the morning, but when Sexton accused him of being a thief*he decided to wait and re- turnthe articles to the hotel clerk. He denies that he took Sexton to his room, but said that one of the hotel porters did ffi' Pillcgardmg the 1nwn ticket he said e silverware was his own property and he thought he could do -’lll’? ltpzvh);! he liked. He belongs to a good family in London, Engiand, and feels his humlilat- ing keenly. He has wired his friends in San Rafael to come to the city and release him on bail. L e e e e S RO Y PERRY-SHITH GANG ESEAPE Victims of the Swindlers Must Go to the State Courts. United States District Judge de Haven rendered a decision yesterday to the ef- feet that it is no offense against the United States Government or the Fed- eral laws to be in possession of or to utter notes of the defunct State Bank of New Brunswick, N. J. The point was raised by Bert Schlesinger, counsel for Robert Lee Pitts, Edward W. Smith and Leopold Greenberg, who were indicted for possessing and passing notes of the bank aforementioned, the being based upon the Federal statute prohibiting the possession or utterance of anything in the likeness or similitude of an’ obligation of the United States. One member of the gang named Wil- liam Hagan leaded guilty several months ago and was sentenced to two years' imprisonment in the SBan Quentin penitentiary. He is now serving his sen- tence, but Judge de Haven's dgcision opens the way for liberty to hinf, and there is no doubt that he will be given his freedom should his friends institute habeas corpus proceedings in_his behalf. Another of the gang named Perry, an ex-convict, turned informer and was not prosecuted. Perry and others bought the worthless notes from Smith, who owns a half interest with Lefl)old Greenberg - in a curiosity shop .on Montgomery street, Smith having imported from New Jersey 10,000 of the bills of the denomination of $2 each. The bulk of these he concealed in the warehouse of the United States Life-saving Service, he at that time being the confidential clerk of General Thomas J. akeney, superintendent of the United States Life-saving Service in_this district. requested his Smith, after his arrest, employer to suspend him pend! nf the in- vestigation, and at General Blakeney's request Smith was suspended. General Bx;ketney said yesterday that he would ask for of_the decision of Judge de Haven. Perry, Hagan and others pasged a large number of these notes on poor women who make a livelihood by conducting branch bakeries in the Mission and the Richmond districts. Mr. Schlesinger demurred to the indict- ments on the ground that they did not charge an offense within the jurisdiction of the United States District Court, and that the mnotes did not purport to be United States obligations nor were they in the likeness or similtude thereof. Taken to Kansas City. H. H. Hansen, alias Barringer, who wass arrested here for passing fictitious checks by representing himself as presi- dent of the Pacific Cigar Company, was taken to Kansas City yesterday by De- tective McAnany. e is wanted there on the charge of forgery, committed {in connection with Truman Nye, alias M.

INDEPENDENT CAS and POWER COMPANY. A. M, HUNT, General Manager, DENIES A STORY OF GADSS ABUSE Judge Suarez of Mexico Tells of Arrest of ‘W. H: Mealey. Mexican Consul General Coney, sta- tioned in this city, yesterday received in- formation from his country that places an entirely different light on the alleged | ill-treatment accorded in Mexico to W. H. Mealey, an American residing in the sis- ter republic. The woes of Mealey have occupied con- siderable space in the public eye in the last few weeks. According to dispatches | and letters sent from Mexico to the United States in October and November last Mea- ley was the victim of a conspiracy that had for its object the wresting from him olwmlning property valued at more tham. The newspapers of the United States told how Mealey had been thrown into prison and his health had been imperiled on account of the vile dungeon in which he had been incarcerated. Mealey’s friends ; openly asserted that prominent offlclals‘ in Mexico had cast longing eyes on the famous Norias de Bajan mine in the State of Coahuila, to which Mealey had a title, and that he was deprived of his liberty in order to force him to relinquish his claims to the valuable lands. Minister’s Report Expected Daily. So much publicity was given to the af- | | fair that President Roosevelt instructed | Secretary of State Hay to Investigate. | The Secretary of State in turn requested ! Minister Clayton to make an investi-| gation of the arrest of Mealey and the | alleged ill-treatment he had received while | in prison. The report of the Minister | has not yet been received at Washington, but is expected daily. ‘When the newspapers in this city pub- lished the telegraphic dispatches of the alleged ill-treatment of Mealey in a Mex- ican prison Consul General Coney sent the reports to his Government and asked for information. The matter was referred by the Mexican authorities to the Judge ‘who committed Mealey to prison and that of- ficial gives a version of the affair entirely different to the one supplied by Mealey and his friends. Consul General Coney yesterday re- celved a communication from Santiago A. Suarez, Judge of the Federal District of Coahuila, who committed Mealey to pris- on. In writing of the accounts published | in America of the alleged ill-treatment of | Mealey, based on reports and letters writ- | ten by the detained man and his friends, | Judge Suarez writes in part: ! You may be assured that all that is stated | in the correspondence published in the Ameri- | can newspapers is false and absolutely devoid | of foundation. The American citizen, W. H. Mealey, was arrested by order of the Federal | District Court of the State of Coahulila, | charged with disobeying the orders of the court, and principally for having taken and retained unlawfully in his possession part of.the records of the mining agency of Monclova and for hav- ing committed perjury before the sald District Court and before the Secretary of the Interior. Says Mealey Was Well Treated. When Mealey was arrested he was assigned to the best quarters in the public jail and was installed in the. rooms of the warden of the prison. He was entirely apart from the other risoners and was shown all consideration dur- ng his detention. He was given his liberty under bonds under due process of law. These facts are personally known to the United States Consul in_this_city. The criminal procsedings instituted against Mealey have nothing to do with the clvil suits that Mealey has brought against the mining company, Norlas de Bajan. These law suits were decided before the courts of the State of Coahufla, have been appealed and are now | pending before the Supreme Court of Justice of | the republic. It is also entirely. false and absolutely ab- surd that Mealey, as stated in American news. | papers, was given the alternative of renounc- | ing his rights to the disputed mining property | or_being placed and kept in jail. 1 beg to assure you that all the criminal pro- ceedings instituted and carried out against | Mealey are perfectly and strictly In accordancs | With the laws of the republic of Mexico now n force. FIGHTS FOR PATRONAGE IN UNION LABOR PARTY Delaneyites Hold a Conference With Attorney Spelling—Progress of Factional Wrangling. Members of the Delaney faction of the Union Labor party’s executive committes held a conference last evening with their attorney, T. Carl Spelling. The Parry faction of the committee, which is rec- ognized as the real thing by Mayor-elect Schmitz, holds the works, and is going ahead with plans for extending the or- ganization to Alameda and Santa Clara counties. The Delaneyites, backed by Spelling, will probabiy gain accessions immediately after the incoming Mayor appoints commissioners to serve on the various municipal boards. ' The number of places at the disposal of the Mayor is not sufficient to meet the demands of the Parry faction, and the disappointed will probably join the opposition forces. The contest for possession of the records of the committee is pending in court. It would not :u?flse the politicians if the decision should go to the Delaneyites and the patronage to the Parry faction. Frank L. Coombs, member of Congress re] tesentini the rst California DI trict, will leave the city for Washing- ton, D, C., to-morrow.

Archbishop Riordan delivered a stirring sermon and administered the benediction and the im- pressive service was conducted by Vicar General Prendergast, assisted by a full chor. | The beautiful white altar of the cathe- Jral was ablaze with dozens of lighted candles and the solemnity of the occa- | sion pervaded the interior of the sacred edifice. The robes of the priests and the acolytes lent vivid color to the scene and all present were deeply imbued with the realization of the passing of the srst year of the twentleth century and the dawning of the second year of the mo- mentous period. Archbishop Riordan selected for the text of his sermon a verse from the Apostle St. James, comparing life to a wvapor, which appears for a little time and then vanishes. In part the Archbishop sald: The last night of the present year is a land- mark which speaks of the flight of _time. Though one day may seem as another, are ot so consclous of the fact as when we stand Within & few hours of the close of the year. These last moments of 1901 must be of seri- ous reflection. ~ To-morrow is & day of sgod wishes and resolutions. _To-night our thoughts are in a minor key. We look over the' past and we are obliged to give ourselves thoughts Tespecting our future lives. We must ask our- Selves if we are better men and women thar We were one year ago. Have we applied our- selves assiducusly to time and its opportuni- ties? We sit to-night by the roadside and re- flect on the journey of the last twelve months. Like the careful man of business the Christian people should take stock at the end of the year. They should take stock of thelr position | and see If they are nearer to God at the end of this year than they were a year ago. Reso- | lutions should be formed accordingly. Life Is as a Vapor. all. St. James says that it is as a vapor that rises for the moment, then vanishes and Is gone. The holy scriptures deal chiefly with the uncertainty of life. Life is like the ripples caused by casting a stone into the waters. In a little while the rippies pass away and all s quiet again. Let us see how We have lived In the last year and what resolutions we shall take for the new year, it God grant that we shall live. What is donme cannot be undone, no matter how much we may wish it. Every deed of man or woman lives forever before God. We cannot control the past actions of our lives. They are stamped like photographs on the plates of eternity and will confront us some day. We are unmindful from day to day of our thoughts and deeds. We think that cer- tain things we have sald and dome are for- gotten, but we are in error. We may our- selves forget them, others may forget them, but the acts and deeds live forever. How we would like to pluck some of the pages from the record of the passing year and consign them to the But it {s impossible. Therefors at this time we must ponder on what life is. Some say that the present life is all that we have and that the future is a matter of falth and mysticism. How dif- ferent are the teachings of the master. ‘We know that we ere living for an important purpose. The years on this earth are but years of preparation. Toward the end of life it increases in value. It increases in value Y TLee Can Collect Damages. i The Supreme Court yesterday affirmed | the judgment of the lower court which gave damages to W. M. Lee for injuries sustained from being run into by a car of the Market-street system. It was claimed by the corporation that Lee had been care- less, but the court held that the motorman might have prevented the , S0 even though it were admitted that the in- jured man had been guiity of contributory negligence he could still collect damages.

Matsumara, steward in the Nippon Maru Hospital, charged with mutilating the dead’ body of Iwakisha Imamura, a Jap- anese, was _dismissed been attending the J: for pleu- L T A because there is but little left ta us. So ‘to-night we ought to feel that with the close of the year the future one becomes m important and of more value to us. Time is irrevocable and whatever we do we do for all time. The things we do are stored up for eternity. Therefors let all of us remember that this moment iy given to us in the prov- idence of Geod, so that we may think over the §rrors of the past and decide to do better uture, to lead better ltvi T ives as men and od Is with us, his faith is in our hearts and we turn our faces to the future with hope and the hnowledge that if we do our duty that he will be our consolation in grief and sorrow.
