WASHINGTON, March 4—The extent of slevery in the Philippines was dis- cussed by Governor Taft before the House Insular Committee to-day in re-| £ponse to questions by members. Governor Taft sald slavery w. ‘ the Southern Moro Islands. The in- stigation made by the Governor and his assoclates had brought out that the slaves uded men, women and children who were slaves for debt, according to statements made by the Datos. es could buy their liberty, but until | 1 was done the condition ran from generation 1o generation.

WASHINGTON, March 4—The ship subsidy bill was again discussed in the Senate to-day by Frye, His remarks were directed principally to the Republican Senators, and he gave further expression to his views that the subsidy bill was a logical response to the demands and principles of the Republican party and that in its preparation he had obviated the objections entertained by Senators friendly to the measure, No other Senators desiring to gpeak to- day, the bill was lald aside and of other bills were passed. The House spent another day in dls- cussion of the bill to classify the rural free delivery service and place the car- riers under the contract system. No vote was reached und it is doubtful whether one will be had to-morrow, as_the list of u‘n-ukvrn i3 somewhat yarge, the bill is In doubt, although the impres- slon prevalls that 1t will be defeated, The uL akers to-day were 8mith (D,) of y Kentuc rdner of New Jer and number Willlams Mh«nlllflwh in favor, and Landis of Indlana, Maddox of Georgla | and HUI of Connbeticut, against the measure Hefore debate began the conference re- port on the Phuilippine tariff bill was adopted.

Pr:tes Into Poor Telephone Service and Strest Obstructions. R A The Grand Jury met-yesterday and for- warded a communication to the Mayor | and Board of Supervisors recommending that provision be made in the next tax levy for an Increase In the police force. The communication calls attention to the fact that no increase in the force has been made since October, 1891, and that as the city's estimated population is 400,000 the. need of additional patrolmen is urgent, | There are now only 506 patrolmen, thqugh | the charter fixes the strength of the Po- llce Department at one policeman for every 500 of population, which would en- | titie the city to 184 additional policemen. “Che communication, which fs” signed by Charles Sonntag, foreman of the Grand Jury, and J. C. Wilson, C, G. Clinch and John Barker, egmposing the Committee | on Police Deparfment, says: 0 | The street patrolmen are divided into two watches, relieving each other at stated inter- vils and wo arranged that one-half of the force | I8 on duty the first Fall of he night and the In the downtown or business districts of the city the beats or tours of duty of the patruimen will average from elght to ten blocks in length, while in the districts they are iuch longer. In ces the men must patrol thirt: to o over their beats. Kven then there | are weveral sections of the city which have no protection whatever, Among these are the Pre- ; wsidio Heights district, which is rapidly bufld- | ing up with fine residences, and the Sunset | district, which is becoming thickly populated. That scction of the city south of Haight street and west of Central avenue has also no patrel; many square miles of the thickly populated police protec- trict have not one-fourth enough police; the wame is true of the rapidly growing Richmand district; the section north of Union street and west of Hyde needs police badly, and moro officers are needed in the water front districts, and also more mounted police in the suburbs, Eays Crime Is Increasing, Crime s on the Intrease. Frequently some of our cltizens are brutally beaten and rohbed | and sometimes murdercd and many homes are entered by burglgrs, and in & number of sec- tions of the city 'the lives of the yesidents are not safe outdoors after nightrall.

Board of Works on the Rack, Colonel Mendell, president of the Hoard of Public Works, appeared to explain why that body does not enforce the ordinance prohibiting the obstruction of =~ gtreets oreman Honntag explained that the Pos lice Committee of the Grand Jury had found that the ordinance was belng vios lated, especially In the downtown district, The committee had waited on the Chief of Police and requested that he direct the police officers to notify all perspns ob- structing the efreete to remove the obs etructions forthwith, The men served no- tices on the offeneders and then the Board of Works asked the Chief of Pollce to de- sist, as the board was considering plans to remedy the matter. Colonel Mendell was sharply questioned regarding what the Grand Jury terms & derelletion of duty and was informed that Mayor Behmitz was displeased at the im- mense proportions which street obstruc- tions had assumed. Mendell explained that an ordinance was now being prepared for submission to the Board of Super- visors in order to cover the case. Foreman Sonntag stated that the Grand Jury would brook no.trifling in the mat- ter and advised Mendell to urge the Board of Works to enforce the ordinance now in effect. Regarding the fences and other obstructions allowed to exist in the Unlversity Mound, Bay View and other suburban’districts, Mendell sald no action was taken, as the matter is now in court and will soon be adjudicated. Poor Telephone System. Louls Glass, vice president of the Pa- cific States Telephone and Telegraph Company, appeared before the jury to ex- plain why the telephone service ¥|ad be- come poorer, as the number of sub- scribers had been increased. Glass was questioned particularly regarding the ex- asperating tactics of the big corporation on the ten party lines. Glass explained the difficuities with which the company had to contend and then invited the Grand Jury to inspect the system. The congestion of traffic on the street- cars was also discussed and the jury wiil recommend that the street rallway com- panies be prohibited from maintaining “'stopping plates’ in the middle of tha street. The jurors are of the opinion that such plates should be on.the sidewalk curbs and not in the street, where the passenger {8 in imminent danger of pass- ing vehicles. The Grand Jurors will com- municate the result of thelr investiga- tions on the subjects mentioned to the Board of Supervisors. —— POLICE COMMISSIONERS FINE TWO PATROLMEN Charges Are Preferred Against Them for Visiting a Saloon While on Duty, The Pollce Commissioners met last night and transacted considerable routine business, A communication was read from the West of Castro Street Improvement Club approving the actlon of the board in rec- ommmending a higher liquor license, Edward E.

Flynn and Frank Morrisey, who are being tried in Judge Troutt's court for assaulting Mrs. Rose Kilbourn of Santa Rosa on the night of December 15, were witnesses in their own behalf vesterday. Both the young men told seemingly straight stories of their doings on the night of the alleged assault, but contradicted in many instances the testl- mony they gave in their preliminary ex- aminations before Judge Mogan. . Thomas Crouch, a chum of the defend- ants anl who was present at the Mor- risey home when Mrs, Kilbourn arrived there after her rough journey across the vacant lots, was the first witness placed on the stand by the defense. Crouch said; Mrs. Kilbourn reached the Morrisey house about 9 p. m. December 15. She was mtoxi- cated. She wore no hat, her clothes were dis- ordered and dirty and her halr was disheveled. She showed her arm, which she sald was broken, to Mrs, Morrisey, and Frank's mother dressed it, putting on liniment and bandages. Morrisey and 1 shortly after her arrival went out to look for her ‘We searched abous the place whera she said she had fallen, but gould ‘not find it, and then returned o the ouse, After we got back we remained about the house for a few minut Frank and I then started with Mrs. Kilbourn for the cars. Escorted Her to Corn with her as far as Mission and returned 1.did not wee her agaln until the next day, This closed Crouch's testimony, which was not shaken by the cross-examina- tion of Attorneys Porter Ashe and W. S. Harnes, who are conducting the prosccu- tion. Mrs, Ellen Mulverhill, who lives within sixty feet of the shanty where the Santa Rosa woman says she was assaulted, tes- tifled that whe dld not hear Mrs, Kilbourn seream on the night of the alleged as- sault, Mrs, Mulverhill satd sho was sit- tng near a window overlooking the shanty about the time the assault was supposed to have taken place, and neith- er saw nor heard anything out of the or- dinary, Mra, Della Sulllvan, who alse 'lives (n the nelghborhood, t when Mrs. Kilbourn passed she shouted, L have been robbed!" ~“Hhe would net let me call the police' sald Mrw, Bullls van, "‘hecause she sal did not want her hushand to know of It," Murlhl J, Flynn was then placed on the atand, e told nn\«-llnuuy the same story as Crouch coneerning the arrival of Mrs Kilbourn at 861 Chenery street, Mra, ahout B o'olaok, fow minutes of the time she left with rlsey and Croueh, | went to my home, I8 next door to Morflaey's, | dld not e WOMAR ARAIR URtHl the next morning, when her At the Heventeenth-sivest pollee sta- Morrisey Denles Chargen, Flynn was not crogs-examined, The testimony of Morrisey wis a lete deninl of the charges made hr i, Kiibourn, e sald the woman was intoxi- cated hen whe reached his mother's house, He denled having helped his moths or dress Mres.

The memory of Robert Emmet, the Irish patriot and martyr, was fitt hon- ored last night by the Knight the Red Branch at Metropolitan Hall. Robert Emmet was born in Dublin, Ire- land, in 1778, and was a colleague of Thomas Moore's at Trinity College, Dub~ lin. Both were members of the Historical Soclety and champions of the people. Emmet was expelled from the university on the ground that he was connected with the Association of United Irishmen. He then went to the Continent, but returned secretly to Dublin to plan an Irish revo- lution. On the 23d of July, 1802, he thought the time to act had come and with his band of faithful followers attemvted to seize the arsenal and capital of Dublin, but failed. Emmet fled from the country, but on returning to visit his sweetheart was captured, charged with treason, con- victed and sentenced to death. He de- fended himself In a speech of remarkabie eloquence, but was hanged in St. Thomas street, Dublin, on September 20, 1506. A.- though Emmét's conduct was rash, the high purity and unselfishness of his in. tentlons have never been questioned, and his name is to this day honored in every Irish home. Mayor Schmitz acted as chairman of the evening and gave an e 'nt address on “Robert Bmmét,” The rest of the pro- gramme was as follows: Overture, “Irish Natlonal Alrs,"” Miss Nora frman, Hon, No Reni Mra. it Rev.
