W’S ARREST IN WINDRO LAW BEARING ON THE CASE OF WINDROW VERY person who exer- cises any functions of a public office without taking the oath of office, or without giving the required bond, is ‘ guilty of a misdemeanor.— Section 65 of the Penal Code. ! = . NDER the foregoing seciion of the Penal Code, Mayor Schmitz may cause the arrest to-day of Joseph Windrow, who, by virtue of an appointment as clerk at the JosepH WiNDROW TWO OF THE PRINCIPAL CHAR- ACTERS IN THE LATEST TAN- GLE AT THE CITY HALL. EX hands of the Justices of the Peace, opened an office yesterday, and without having furnished a bond with the approval of the Mayor as required by the city charter, began to exercise all the functions of a public officer. Windrow was notified by the Mayor last evening that if he persisted in his course proceedings would be taken agaipst him under the provision quoted. After a con- sultation with his counsel, Windrow ac- cepted the challenge and announced that , he would be on duty in his office this morning as usual, be the result what it may. | ™he Justices’ Clerk fight now threatens to end in criminal proceedings, for the | Mayor is determined to carry out his | policy at every hazard. On ‘the other hand, Windrow is anxious to have the question decided by the courts, even though he may have to face a criminal charge, for the purpose of establishing what he deems his rights in the premises. The developments of to-day will there- fore be watched with interest by all in- terested in the fight of the Mayor against the City Hall *“push.” Two Clerks Do Business. The unparalleled spectacle of two Jus- tices’ Clerks doing business at the same | time was presented at the City Hall yes- | terday. The day was one of unusual ac- tivity in legal circles and necéssarily some confusion prevailed, owing to the unsettled_state of the fight now waging between Mayor Schmitz and the Justices of the Peace. That the present state of affairs cannot longer endure without crippling the busl- ness of the Justices’ Courts and causing the public great inconvenience, if not | financial loss, is génerally recognized. The deflant attitude of the Justices to- ward Mayor Schmitz asserted itseif very conspicuously throughout the proceedings yesterday. At 8:30 a. m. Presiding Jus- tice Daniels ‘opened his .chamber and a moment later Clerk Windrow, accompan. | jed by Assistant McComb, appeared on the scene. Justice Danieis’ courtroom was then opened and the clerks named took possession thereof without opposi- tion. McComb_ announced himself ready | to resume the duties in which he was en- gaged when Clerk Williams was suspend- ed, while Windrow, accompanied by his atiorney, Thomas D. Riordan, went to the Mayor’s office for the purpose of hav- ing the bond of the former approved. The Mayor had not arrived, but an hour later when the two sought his presence the Mayor declined to approve the bond on the ground that there was no vacancy in the office of the Clerk -of the Justices’ Court. Acting on the advice of his coun- sel, Windrow resolved to assume the du- ties of his office at once, and ten minutes later Windrow was at his new desk in Justice Daniels’ courtroom. Attorneys Indorse Justices. That the action of the Justices in ap- pointing their own clerk in the person of Windrow is indorsed by many attorneys was manifest by the business transacted under Windrow's direction. Before ncon nearly twenty suits had ‘been filed, and ! at the close of the office at 5 p. m. a total .of forty-two new suits had been entered and fees amounting to $86.50 col- lected. All but $6 50 of this sum was de- posited with the City Treasurer by Win- drow and his receipt therefor accepted. The unusual rush was doubtless occa- sloned by the official announcement of the Justices that no processes, writs or other papers would be recognized by them un- less the same bore the signaturé of Clerk Windrow. This was a virtual repudiation of Clerk Fredrick, the Mayor’s appointee, and the business of the office presided over by the latter was very light. Only six suits were filed with Fredrick during the day, several of these bei; + both clerks in order that their chances of getting judgment might not be minimized when it is judicially decided that one or the other clerk was illegally appointed. The entire receipts of Kredrick's office during the day did not exceed, $30. Fredrick accepted the condition with equanimity, Whenever any records were sent for by the Justices, Fredrick re- sponded with alacrity. During the morn- ing he asserted his authority as clerk by promulgating a new set of rules, as fol- ows Glerk Frederick’s New Rule. No papers or files shall be taken from this office, except by, one of the deputy clerks. One of the deputies shall be specially as- signed. to the workt of taking such papers from thix office to the courtrooms of the respective Justices, The deputy before taking the papers from this office shall enter In a book provided for the purpose the title and number of the action, the date and hour of taking, and the name of the Justice to whore courtroom the papers are 10 be taken. Each Justice 1s requested to receipt for such papers as shall be left in his courtroom by such deputy, and is respectfully requested, either in person’ or by such deputy, to return the same to this office, whereupon his receipt therefor will be canceled. County Clerk Mahony, who is inter- ested in the Justices’ clerk dispute to a considerable extent, sent a ressage to Judge Cook during the morning asking his opinjon as to his (Mahony’s) duty in the premises. Mahony wanted to know which of the appointees to recognize in an: official capacity,” but the question asked was_ evidently more than Judge Cook cared to decide off hand, and he failed to reply. _Later Mahony consulted with Attorney Riordan, with the result that he arrived at the conclusion to rec- ognize neither clerk, but to accept for filing only such_papers as_bear the sig- nature of the Preslding Justice of the Peace. Greatly to the chagrin of the clerks a- et e ————— Suits that give perfec- tion, satisfaction—in fab- ric, in style, in work- manship and wearing qualities—and that hold ° their shape until Worn otit, are the sort that we make to measure.

How long this action of the Auditor will remain in force will be decided by future develop- ments in the controversy. Meanwhile the clerks must labor without demuneration. Mayor Sehmitz said last night that nothing the Justices or their clerk could do would cause him any worry. He said he had the law and the best wishes of the better element of the people cn his side and that was sufficient for him. He said further that he would never give way to political pressure and that having declared war against the City Hall “push’’ he was resolved to fight to the end. %rand Jurors Farnsworth and Roach visited the chambers of the various Jus- tices yesterday and looked over their cal- endars. What the real purpose of the visits was can only be surmised. It will be remembered that in his statement pub- lished yesterday Mayor Schmitz charged that it was almost impossible to find a Justice in his office during the afternoon of any day. The inquiries addressed te. the Justices indicated that this statement had had an effect upon the Grand Jury and that a quiet investigation of the facts is now in progress. The Justices, without exception, char- acterize the Mayor's statement as being uncalled for and unjust. The nature of Presiding Justice Daniels’ dutles rend:rs it imperative that he should be in his office until 5 o'clock every day, and that official says he has never neglected his dutfes. Justice Long asserts that he is not only on duty every afternoon, but that once or twice a week he holds night sessions of court for the accommodation of working people who are witne s in civil actions. The other Justices defend themselves with similar pleas and all in- vite the fullest investigation of their of- ficial acts. DEEMS BILLS EXCESSIVE. Supervisors’ Finance Committee De- mands Return of Overcharges. The Supervisors’ Finance Committee met last night and concluded its investigation into the alleged overcharge for printing transcripts on appeal whereby the fund of $2500 was overdrawn to the extent of $3300. A number of printers were exam- ined and they all testified that the current rate for printing transcripts was % cents a page. Grattan Phillips, a member of the firm of Phillips, Smyth & Van Orden, could not explain under what circumstances one transeript of 312 pages had cost the city $364 50, but said the changes and additions accounted for the increased cost. Ex- Chief Deputy County Clerk Goddard stat- ed that he had never examined the de- mands and believed it his duty to sign fhem as they were sworn to. Superior Judge Lawlor sald that he had ordered jmmaterial changes in several of the -anscripts. trAtter %earlng the evidence, it reported that the charges made by Phillips & Co. were exorbitant and a gross imposition on the city. The committee recommended fhat a demand be made on the firm for the return of the amount in excess of the proper charges. Phillips declared that he will refuse to comply with the demand, and the committee will ask the City At- torney to advise what redress may be had against former County Clerk Deane, ex- Auditor Wells and_ex-Treasurer Brooks or their bondsmen for paying the bills. — Game in season for lunch at Cafe Zin- kand properly cooked, properly served.
