It is estimated by the secret service men that the gang distributed $6000 in coun- terfeit half-dollar and quarter-dollar pleces.

Secret Service Agent Harry M. Moffitt testified to the arrest and search of San- ders and Jones and the finding on them of counterfeit 25 and 50 cent pieces.

Frank Sanders, alias Willlam Siefert, was sent to the San Quentin penitentiary December 20, 1888, for two years on a con- viction of burglary; on November 25, 1890, he was sent to the Folsom penitentiary for fifteen years on two convictions of burglary. Agent Hazen learned that John Nadal, the landlord of the premises at 215 Perry street, was employed as a cook at the Facific Unlon Club and that he had been a frequent visitor at the yooms where the ccunterfeit money was being made, and that John Tauzia, emploved as a porter at Delmonico’s restaurant, on O'Farrell street, had been also in the habit of vis- iting Mennenglier.

C. . Oxnard, Arrested for Battery. If the complaint which was poured into | the ear of Judge Mogan yesterday morn- iug by Julia Hannigan of 123§ Missior | street is founded on cold, hard facts Mrs. | George C. Oxnard, who resides at 1436 | Broadway, has discovered a new method of dealing with refractory servants. .The | servant question has long been a problem | that has vexed the minds of thrifty How to induce the maids- of-all-work with migratory tendencies to retain thelr positions has proved a veri- | table sphinx riddle. They have been al- lowed to entertain their beaux in the par- lor, but still they would quit their posi- tions. They have been allowed two and even three nights off each week and the use of the family automobile, and even the use of the mistress’ second best dress when they tog themselves out to do the lire, but all these concessions have been in vain; the servants will not stay. After pondering long and deeply over this perplexing suBject Mrs. Oxnard, it is ciaimed, devised a new method. Unfortu- nately, however, the method is not liable | to become popular. . Miss Hannigan, upon whom it is alleged Mrs. Oxnard tried the new method, appeared in Judge Mogan's court and swore out a warrant for her arrest. She charged her mistress with having thrown her down a flight of stairs and with having used a dog whip on her. To back up her charges Miss Hannigan | displayed an eye that was arrayed in | deep mourning. She sald that her eye was blackened by coming in contact with | the door fender at the foot of the stairs. “I went to work for Mrs. Oxnard about a week and five days ago,” she said. “On last Sunday I told her that I intended to | leave. She has a very bad temper and I could not stand it. She requested me not to quit, so I promised to give her another chance. I was ill and was unable to go to work Monday or Tuesday. On Wednes- day I went to Mrs. Oxnard’s house, but she’ was not at home. I went again Thursday afternoon and met her at the with her dog. I followed her upstairs. “When we reached the landing at the head é&f the stair I found that she had my basket all packed ready for me to go. She turned to me and called me a vile name. Then she struck me and knocked ! me down the flight of stairs. She threw | my basket after me and it landed on my head.- My eye hit against the Iitile bumper against which the door strikes at the foot of the stairs. One of my back combs' fell out of my hair, and when 1 went back upstairs to get it she struck | me with her dog whip. When she knocked me downstairs she almost tore the sleeves out of my coat. “I went next door and asked for protec- tion. The people there told me to have her arrested. I went next to the Central Emergency Hospital. and had my eye dressed.” 3 After hearing Miss Hannigan's tale of woe Judge Mogan issued the warrant. It was served yesterday afternoon and Mrs. Oxnard was taken to the North Erd station, but was immediately released on $10 bail. Lundstrom’s $2 50 and $3 50 Hats Are dependable and best value.

Three Chinamen were held up and robbed at the corner of Powell and Cal- ifornia streets Thursday night and every- thing they had of value was taken from them. In all they lost over §170 in money and three watches, the value of which could not be ascertained. They reported the matter to the police immediately and besides the detectives all patrolmen .in the district were In- structed to watch out for the highway- men. The Chinamen described the rob- bers as three young men, smooth shaven and well dressed, and the one who did the searching was of extremely pale complexion. The other two stood behind them and held what the Chinamen sup- posed were revolvers to their heads.

A flippant sailor witness was frightened out of a year's growth yesterday morn- ing by United States Local Inspectors Captains Bolles and Bulger. The sailor was Oscar Christiansen, quartermaster of the steamer William H. Kruger, be- tween which vessel and the American bark Elwell a collision occurred off Fort Point on October 20. On the occasion of the collision Chris- tiansen was at the helm, and he testified practically that he was ‘“‘running the ship” all by himself, and that Captain Ahlin of the Kruger had not given him any orders whatever as to altering:the course of the steamer. Captain Ahlin cross-examined the wit- | ness and forced him ‘to admit ‘that his testimony on that point was false aud that the captain had given him several orders just prior to the accident. Then the inspectors reminded the flip- pant witness that he was not testifying before a Police. Judge, and that perjury committed before the United States in- spectors of steam vessels was punishable by imprisonment in the penitentiary. ‘When .Christiansen heard this statement the supercilious smile faded out /of his face and he became extremely docile. The matter of the collision was taken under advisement. ————————— BOY PRISONER MAKES A DASH FOR LIBERTY 0. Mohan, Clurged With Va- grancy, Tries to Escape From Judge Fritz’s Courtroom. D. O. Molson, 15 years of age, whoso parents live at 16% Sherwood place, made an attempt to escape from Judge Fritz's courtroom yesterday morning. Young Molson was arrested Thursday night at the corner of Townsend and Fifth streets by Policeman Skelly on a charge of va- grancy. When the case was called yesterday morning Molson stepped up to the bench and the Judge, after interrogating him, said he would continue the case until this morning. He told Molson to take a seat on the bench fronting the dock till he was taken back to the prison by the bailiff. Molson sat down, but in a few minutes he quietly arose from his seat, opened the gate and made a dash for the dcor of the courtroom. Balliff Conlon was after him like a flash and caught him just as he reached the door. He was at once taken to the prison to prevent him making another attempt.

Wilson Gives Lucid and Interesting Recital Before Chan- ning Auxiliary. Miss A. K. Wilson gave one of her re- citals of “Parsifal” before the Channing Auxiliary in the hall of the Unitarian church, Franklin street, yesterday after- noon. The attendance was large and thoroughly appreciated the lucid explana- tions of Wagner's marvelously construct- ed work. The recital was given after the manner of Walter Damrosch—a method of ex- piaining the motifs of great musical com- positions that has become popular with musical students and those who appre- ciate the advantage of understanding the composer’s music language.
