PITTS, The Stationer. 1006 MARKET STREET, above Powel] St Ean low out CITY EMPLOYES BECOME UNEAS Supervisors’ Finance Com- mittee Pursues Quiet In- quiry of Duties Performed —_— The employes in the various depart- ments of the city government are be- coming decldedly uneasy, owing to a | quiet investigation now being pursued |by ‘the Finance Committee of the ! Board of Supervisors. The investigation is being directed to the amount and kind of work per- | formed by the clerks and other em- | ployes of the city, with- a view to Easvertnlnlng if the services of some | can be dispensed with when the appro- priations for salaries in the next muni- | cipal budget are adopted by the Board of Supervisors. With that end in view the Finance | Committee has employed H. A. Mason among the clerks of the various city offic Mason secretary of the Municipal League and, through the | grace of the board, has been accom- ! modated with desk space in the upper committee room of the board. Mason is at present receiving no compensa- tion, but the Finance Committee has assured him that provision will be = is made in the next budget to pay him | for bis services. | The Finance Committee is maintain- !ing the utmost secrecy about Mason's employment, and on that account has not intreduced a resolution in. the board formally authorizing him to represent the committee in the matter of inquiring into the necessity for the employment of the various clerks. Supplementary to Mason's inquiry, Supervisors d’Ancona and Payot are | investigations | also making personal for the committee that will guide them ir designating the amount in salaries |to be allowed the city departments during the next fiscal year. Payot and | @’ Ancona have visited the office of the Board of Public Works during the last | few days and closely questioned the clerks in the main office, the bookkeep- |ing and other departments as to their exact duties. This investigation by the Finance Committee is considered ominous by | the clerks themselves, especially those employed in the boards of Health, Public Works and other boards in | which Mayor Schmitz has assumed | control. The employes figure that, |owing to the strained relations now | existing between Mayor Schmitz and the Board of Supervisors, the lat- ter body will materially cut down the appropriations for salaries. Some of | them may thus be thrown out of em- ployment or have their salaries re- duced. | The Mayor has effected a retrench- | ment in the Health Board and is anx- | fous to put the same policy in effect in the Board of Works. The war be- tween the Mayor and the SBupervisors over the next budget promises to be an exciting one. The Mayor has the rower to veto any specific appropria- tions in the budget if he so chooses, and it will require fourteen votes in the board to override him. It is an open question whether the opposition can muster the necessary fourteen Su- pervisors to overrule the Mayor. and | it is of the cards for the adoption of a compromise before summary action is | taken by the board. { —_——— | PRESENT ENGROSSED RESOLUTIONS TO RUEF ilealth Board Employes Honor Well Known Attorney for His Efforts in Their Behalf. | The twelve employes of the Board | of Health who had trouble in secur- ing their salaries because their ap- pointment was opposed by other city departments presented Attorney A. Ruef with an engrossed set of com- mendatory resolutions yesterday in re- lxurn for the latter’s gratuitous ser- ! vices in their behalf. The presenta- tion |took place in the offices of the board, Health Officer Ragan making the presentation speech. Deputy Health Officer Levy read the resolutions, which recited that Mr. Ruef’s services had resulted in a sig- nal victory and he had declined to ac- cept any fee for the same. Ruef re- plied in feeling manner. Dr. Poheim of the Health Board made a few re- marks in which he stated that the absence of Dr. Ward, p: nt of the ‘board, was unavoidable. ————— $1.00 Carpet 60c. AN PROVIDE IGAINST FIRE | of Its Public Buildings P SRR dered an opinion in which he holds that | the city has the power to insure public buildings, although | fect. | The opinion was rendered in response | to a query of the Park Commissioners |as to whether they had the power to place fire insurance on the conservatory or other buildings in Golden Gate Park. Long says that while the Board of Park Commissioners is without power | to insure the buildings under its con- | trol, such power is vested-in the Board | of Public Works as a necessary inci- | dent to their express power to superin- | to inaugurate a system of observation | tend, control and manage the repair and maintenance of all public build- ings owned by the city and county. | The decision is important, as hereto- | fore no effort has been made to insure ! public buildings, because the charter | being silent on the subject it has been | construed that no department of the | municipality had the necessary power. The matter has been considered by | the Board of Education, which was also on the point of asking for an opinion as to whether it had authority to in- sure the public school buildings. Pres dent Roncovieri of the board has been | giving the subject much thought, be- cause if a school building should burn down there would be no, available funds to build one in its place. Long | in his opinion say: The power conferred by the charter upon the Board of Public Works to construct pub- lic buildings being general in its terms must be held to have been restricted by the par- | ticular terms of section 6 of article XIV, and as so construed the “exclusive right” is vested in tRe Park Commissioners ‘‘to erect and to | superintend the erection of bulldings and | structures thereon.” The power, however, Public Works to have ence and control” of the repair and main- tenance of any and all buildings and structures owned by the city and county is free from such limitation, since no such power appears given the Board of *‘charge, superintend- missioners with respect to the buildings under their control. While no express authority is conferred upon either board to insure buildings sucn power may be properly plied. It is a general and undisputed proposition | of law that a municipal corporation possesses and can exercise not only such powers as are | expressly granted. but also those necessarily or fairly implied in or incident to the powers expressly granted. (1 Dillon Mun. C. 145; Von Schmidt vs. Widber, 105 Cal.,~151. nd it has been held by the court of In- diana that the power to control and maintain public buildings includes, as a necessary in- | @ident thereto, the power to insure the same {and pay such Insurance out of the public | tunds, | | such im- — e WOODWARD MAY BE NAMED AS NEW CITY ENGINEER Rumor Current That Present Commis- sioner of Works will Be Suc- ceeded by Henry Lynch. There was an unconfirmed rumer around the City Hall yesterday that it of Public Works Woodward would be appointed City Engineer to succeed C. E. Grunsky, resigned, and that Henry H. Lynch would be named by Mayor Schmitz to succeed Woodward as Commissioner of Works. Woodward is at present in charge he is a civil engineer, is qualified for the office. Lynch is a strong candi- date for the position of City Engineer, but the opinion is expressed that he be solaced with the commissionership.

Dimond, indicted by the Federal Grand Jury at Washington for conspiracy to defraud the Government of valuable Western forest lands, were taken before United States Commissioner E. H. Heacock ! yesterday morning for their prelimi- nary examination. Their attorneys asked for an adjournment of the hear- ing, byt the Commissioner consented to only one day’s delay. Hyde’s bail | was increased from $10,000 to $20,000 |and that of Dimond from $10,000 to $15,000. A great array of eminent counsel con- fronted Commissioner Heacock when the case was called at 10 o'clock. The Government was represented by United | States District Attorney Marshall B. Woodworth, with whom came Francis | J. Heney as special counsel, ex-Judge { M. C. Burch, special Assistant Attor- ney General of the United States: A. B. | Pugh, one of the attorneys for the In- I terior Department, and O. E. Pagin of the Department of Justice. The de- | fendant Dimond was represented by Charles S. Wheeler of Bishop, Wheeler | & Hoefler and by Samuel Knight of | Page, McCutchen & Knight, while Gar- ret W. McEnerney and Bert Schlesin- ger appeared for Hyde. DEFENDANTS SEEK DELAY. Defendants’ counsel told the Com- missioner that they had not had suffi- cient time to study the indictment, and therefore asked for a week’'s delay to enable them to prepare the defense. This was opposed by the attorneys for the Government, and the Commissioner finally set the case for 10 o'clock this morning. Mr. Heney then asked that the de- fendants’ bonds be raised, declaring that the sum of $10,000, in which each | of them had been held, was incom- mensurate with the offense charged and out of proportion to the bail required | in other cases of like gravity. John | A. Benson and J. H. Schneider, who were jointly indicted with Hyde and Dimond for the same offense, had been | placed under $20,000 bonds at Wash- | ington. Commissioner Heacock said ' that inasmuch as Hyde was charged as a principal in the indictment, while | | i | | } i | often cook on a gas range from San Francisco Gas and Electric Co., 415 Post.* | ————— Commends Action of Mayor.

The union also praises the Supervisors that stood by the Mayor in sustaining his vetoes. —_———— Log Cabin! ““The bread with a flavar." esale—900 Dolores st. ® Dimond’s relation to the case was | rather that of an accessory, he would fix the bond of the former at $30,000 and that of the latter at $15,000. Mr. Schlesinger objected vigorously to the increase of bail, but without avail. BONDSMEN ARE READY. Hyde and Dimond were at once taken | into custody by United States Marshal | Shine, but this formality was soon over | with, as each of the accused lawyers had his bondsmen ready. Crawford W. Clarke, the Sacramento capitalist, and L. S. Sherman of Sherman, Clay & Co., this city, were accepted as Hyde's sure- ties. For Dimond’s appearance when wanted Charles S. Wheeler and W. R. Shertvood appeared and duly qualified as bondsmen. The hearing before Commissioner i the Heacock is for the purpose of deter- mining whether there is sufficient evi- dence to establish a probable cause against the accused. If the Commis- sioner finds that the crime charged has been committed and that the evi- dence makes it probable that the de- fendants were parties to it he wiil old them for trial. The trial, if he men are held, will take place at Washington, D. C., where all the four indicted men, who are now under bonds for their appéarance, will be required to present themselves. —_————— .
