10 THE: SA FRANCISCO LL, TUESDA MAY 17, 1904 FREE SPEECH 1S IN FAVOR Supervisors Defeat a Pro- posed Ordinance to Re- strict Crowds on Streets IS GRS MAKE APPEAL TO BOARD Police Commissioners Ask City to Defray Expenses of Chief Wittman’s Trip The Board of Supervisors yesterday indefinitely postponed the proposed or- dinance for regulating meetings on the public streets. Many protests were filed in which vigorous objection was made to the restriction of free speech, and the board took a similar point of view. Supervisor Brandenstein explained that the ordinance had not been rec-| ommended by Chief of Police Witt- mgn, as commonly believed, but had been introduced at the request of Grant-avenue retail merchants, who were entitled to relief from the meet- inge held nightly on the thoroughfare, | &nd he suggested that some regulation | thereon be adopted A reeolution was adopted granting J..P. Fraser, chairman of the commit- | tee on decorations of the Twenty-ninth Triennial Conclave of the Knights Templars, permission, from September 8 to September 10, 04, to illuminate and decorate Market street, from Steu- ert to Ninth; Montgomery street, from Market to California; California street, from Montgomery to Kearny; Kearny street, from California to Market; Powell street, from Market to Sutter, and the streets around Union Square; also to construct a band stand on Geary street, between Stockton and Powell. The City Attorney was directed to dismiss an action instituted by the rd of Works against Charles and ry Bush to compel the removal of projecting over the sidewalk at and Franklin streets, as the per- to erect the steps was regu- granted by the board on April 2 Ha Etep: ion The Police Commissioners petitioned the board to appropriate $500 to defray of Chief Wittman, who granted a leave of ab- sence attend the conference of Chiefs of Police to be held in St. Louis &t the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, on June 6. The petition recites that as W n is making the trip solely in the interest it would not be im- the city to defray the cost of the journey.” The conference is to be an international affair and will have a most important bearing on police mat- The petition was referred to the Committee. i e s GIRL WHO DISAPPEARED HAS RETURNED TO HOME the ex nses was recently pub proper for Edith Willlams, Wearying of Her Pleasure.

Collins, representing Jean Pon, to prevent it, goes on with unfailing reg- ularity and becomes more and more complicated. Hutton and Chief Wittman were cited to appear before Judge Cook yesterday for an alleged vioiation of the injunc- tion restraining the police from inter- | fering with Pon’s restaurant business in procuring from Police Judge Ca- baniss warrants for the arrest of forty-two inmates of the premises in the rear of the restaurant on a mis- | demeanor charge. INTERPOSE DEMURRERS. When the case was called demur- rers were interposed on behalf of Hut- ton and Wittman. They deny the alle- gations in the affidavit of Pon. It was argued by Attorney Monroe and Assistant District Attorney Harris that as no overt act was charged against the respondents they could not be ac- cused of violating the injunction. The | mere fact of procuring warrants could not constitute an overt act. Collins argued that the warrants were not to be used for the purpose ! of arresting the women, but only as « subterfuge to obtain an entry to the premises and ruin the business of the petitioner. He contended that there was a violation of the injunction. The Judge said that there was such a thing as a threatened violation of an injunction and if so it was within the province of the court to'issue an- other restraining order. It seemed to him that no step had been taken to carry the threat into execution. He wanted to know whether there had been anything more than a threat. If the petitioner had no authorities to combat the point raised by the re- spondents he would consider it well taken. He continued the case until Friday to give both sides time to sub- mit authorities. PROCEEDINGS DISMISSED. The contempt proceedings against Policemen Davids and Barry for vio- lating the injunction in arresting Beu- lah Willlams after she had left the restaurant were dismissed without prejudice. Collins insinuated that the police were keeping. the woman out of the way. This was denied by Assist- ant District Attorney Harris, who ex- | pressed his anxiety to hear her tes- timony. The habeas corpus proceed- ings for the release of Rosie Smith, charged with vagrancy, and Rosie Miller, charged with perjury, were continued till May 23. Commissioner Hutton brought up the question of the writ of certiorari | which had been assigned by Presiding | ed her to various lodg- | Judge Kerrigan to Judge Sloss’ court and Judge Cook said he would bow to the opinion of the presiding Judge. Collins argued that Judge Cook was within his rights in making the writ returnable to his own court and said he had authorities to the point. It was agreed that the matter in dispute should be argued before Judge Sloss | this morning. ——e—————— PICKPOCKETS AT WORK ON Victims Complain to Police and Re- ports Are Made of Sneak Thief and Change Artist. The police were notified yesterday of | the aoings of pickpockets, sneak | thieves and change artists on Satur- |day and Sunday. A man entered Kohler & Chase’s store on Saturday | eand asked Cashier Zenable to give him {a $10 gold plece for two fives, which he placed on the counter. Zenable produced the $10 piece, and the man, ! shoving it and the two flves toward Zenable, suggested that he make it a $20 piece. Zenable handed over the twenty and did not discover the trick that had been played upon him till he counted his cash in the evening. Charles Webb, 473 Fifty-ninth | street, Oakland, reported that while | he was on a Santa Fe train on Sunday jafternoon his pockets were rifled of | $11 50. Joseph Irving, 618 Brannan street, | reported that while he was asleep on |a boat coming from a picnic at El | Campo on Sunday night his gold watch |and chain, valued at $53, had been | stolen from his pocket. reported that on Sunday morning while he was cleaning the front steps at 2620 Buchanan street some one | stole hie overcoat from the basement. —_————— | McCarty Gives Up Fight. The suit for $100,000 damages brought by J. H. McCarty against the Master Horseshoers’ Association and the Journeymen Horseshoers’ Union was dismissed yesterday. It was ru- mored that the defendants compro- mised with the plaintiff for $1200. The jury before which the action was first tried disagreed. The dismissal of yes- terday stops the second trial, steps to obtain which had been taken by Mec- Carty. The original suit was caused by a boycott on McCarty by the de- fendants, the plaintiff alleging that the boycott was the result of a conspir- acy. —_——————— Gets No Insurance. The Supreme Court decided yester- day that the British-American Assur- ance Company would not have to pay Richard Bostian the amount for which his house was insured at the time it was destroyed by fire. It was stated in the policy that the company would not settle in case of fire if dynamite were kept in the house. Bostian kept a stick and a half of dynamite on his premises. His house caught fire from some other cause, but as he violated the dynamite provision in the policy he can recover no insurance. BOATS AND TRAINS | D. A.

Schmitz and the rest of the board showed no bashfulness in asking for what they wanted, but when the fig- ures becams too high Supervisor Brandenstein objected. “You shouldn’t ask for what you think we can give you or what you think we can afford to give,” he said; “you should ask for what you need and then we can cut the cloth accord- ingly.

The petition states that the proposi- tion for the city to acquire the road has been twice submitted to the peo- ple and has been both times defeated, ithus demonstrating that the people do not care to operate a road on these }‘!treetl in the name of the municipal- ty.

He claims that in most departments of the civil service lists the men are far too old to do the work and that in the street sweeping department the eli- gible list consists of men from 70 to 80 | years of age. WOULD FIX AGE LIMIT. Brandenstein expressed his inability ! to see why there should not be an age limit fixed by the Civil Service Com- missioners and promised that he would bring the question up before them when they appear before the Finance | Committee to-morrow morning. The Board of Public Works asked that an appropriation of $38,000 be made to be expended on the City Hall and the Hall of Justice. Mrs. W. F. Merrill appeared before | | the Finance Committee yesterday meorning on behalf of the San Francisco Benevolent Assocfation asking that an appropriation be set aside for the asso-| ciation. Mrs. Merrill averred that there are thousands of worthy poor in the | city who are not looked after by other societies, and that $5000 could be put to | good use for their welfare. CHARTER BARS CHARITIES. Brandenstein explained that the char- ter adopted a year ago prevents the | granting of her request, as it positively states that no city money shall be | given to charities other than municipal | organizations. Mrs. Merrill next asked that the City | and County Hospital's appropriation of |last year shall not be decreased this | year, as all the money possible is need- | ed in giving proper treatment to the in- | mates. The matter was assigned to Dr. | @’ Ancona, who will make an investiga- | tion. ! Miss Katherine Felton appeared be- fore the committee to suggest the ! maintenance of a detention ward for | children awaiting trials in the juvenile court. She says that a piece of prop- erty three blocks from the City Hall could be bought and a man and his wife placed in charge at the expense of but $3500 to the city per annum.
