Says Changes Are for the Good of the Service, and Makes Two Ap- pointments. The Board of Public Works yester- day removed John Hayes, keeper of | the Sixteenth-street corperation yard, and F. G. Carpenter, assistant super- intendent of street sweeping, from their positions and appointed Peter | F. Sheehan and W. J. Shaughnessy to the respective places. The board as- cribes no reason for the removals other than that they are made for the good of the service. The board gave the owners of the house standing in the middle of Beach street, between Hyde and Larkin, one week to remove the same, with the alternative of the building being torn down by the employes of the board. ———————— Wild Geese Plentiful.

He was arrested for ob- taining money by false pretenses and was sentenced to serve three months in the County Jail. In August, 1895, he was convicted of vagrancy and sen- tenced to serve six months in the County Jail. While serving that sen- tence he was allowed to leave the jail occasionally and take a stroll down tion form for appointment as inspector | town.

Out of thirteen cases brought before it only two indict- ments were found. The eleven cases | ignored had been presented during the | torney Woodworth in the country on | official business. | find that so large a number of charges | had been ignored. The eleven cases are as follows: Charles A. Jensen, charged with hav- ing while Postmaster at Cordelia failed and Davis streets. He was so | George Blanck and bearing the alleged | to deposit §1421 38 with the treasury of | | the United States on April 27, 1904; | | Charles Saxon and Howard -Quimby, | | charged with having unlawfully as- | saulted a United States teacher at, Hoopa about January 1, 1904; Hong Fat Company, charged with having vio- lated the hydraulic mining law on June 9, 1904; Isaac Smith, charged with smuggling 199 cigars on September 1,/ 1904; H. Thompson, charged with hav- | ing marooned a mariner on August 4, | 1904, at Punta Arena, Central America; | Frances de Souze, charged with smug- | | gling two dressed ostrich feathers Octo- | ber 31, 1904; George Nichols, charged | with smuggling 100 cigars on September 1, 1904; D. J. Callaghan, charged wlth“ smuggling thirty-six silk caps on July 1, 1904; Geronimo Rodriguez, charged with having uttered a forged United States Shipping Commissioner’s certifi- | cate on July 11, 1904; John Leslie, charged with having disposed of sub-/ sistence stores of the United States on August 12, 1904, to F. W. Arnold for $3, | and Joseph de Benedetti, charged with violating section 5426 of the Revised Statutes. Two indictments were presented, one against Juan Sanchez for stealing cer- tain jewelry from Thomas A. Pearce at the Presidio, and the second agalnst Olat Anderson for beating and wound- | ing a Kanaka, John Saunders, on board the schooner Vine on July 1, 1904. Postmaster Jensen had refunded the $1421 held by him, and the jury took pity upon him and his family and con- sidered that he had been sufficlently punished by reason of the exposure and | consequent disgrace. The petty smug- gling cases were dismissed because the punishment was too severe for crime. . § e Conditon of Channel-Street Sewer. The Board of Public Works yester- day filed a report with the Supervisors that the Channel-street sewer is in good condition except between Fif- teenth and Sixteenth streets, where it is badly cracked, owing to the cars of the Southern Pacific Company pass- ing over it at that point. At the cross- ing of Eighth, Kansas and Division streets the electric conduit of the San Francisco Gas Company projects into the sewer, and, acting as a dam, causes the street to become flooded. The company promised to remove the conduit, but has not done so. —_———— Civil Engineer Wanted.

He was house physician to the Ottoman Sultan in Turkey in 1878, and in December of that year was a surgeon in the French army. Later he acted for a year or more as quaran- tine doctor at Port Said.

Attorney Woodworth Returns on Government Or- | der to Pursue the Frauds —_— United States District Attorney Mar- shall B. Woodworth returned from the | country yesterday, having been sum- | moned to his office by an urgent tele- gram from Washington. The telegram instructed him to investigate and prose- | cute George A. Wright and all other | persons in the office of United States | Internal Revenue Collector Lynch whom he might discover to have been | short in their accounts at any time, ir- | respective of the fact that the short- | ages may have subsequently been made | good. | Mr. Woodworth said yesterday that | he had not had time to familiarize him- self with the case of Wright's shortage | | of $4600, but would immediately look | | into the papers and have a conference with Special Revenue Agent Bert M. Thomas. He added that several days | would probably elapse before he would | be ready to move in the matter, and | that if he then found that a crime had | been committed he would lose no time | in prosecuting the guilty parties. | It is belleved that Wright is not the | only offender in the office. Others be- sides him wagered money on the races | and were so unfortunate as to pick| I‘ out the wrong horses. Others frequent- | e dthe crystal palaces of the tenderloin. ! These, however, made good before they | were dtected, but whe nthe tide receded | Wright was discovered high and dry in | the flerce white blaze of publicity. | It has heen pointed out that the | greater number of John C. Lynch’s ap- } pointees were selected at the dictation of leaders of the party machine in this State, and there has been much com- ment among business men as to the careless methods prevailing in that of- fice. A well-known business man in- formed a Government official recently that on one occasion he was handed a greater value of stamps than the money paid by him called for, and that upon discovering the error after he had | left the revenue office he returned and | refunded the excess. He said that the man who gave him the stamps was un- der the influence of liquor. These and other matters displaying | carelessness and incompetency have | been reported to Agent Thomas, and in | consequence his Investigation will be directed not against Wright alone, but into the affairs and management of | | every branch of the office. In Justice to Collector Lynch it must be said that up to a year ago the de- partment at Washington rated the ac- | counts of his office high for accuracy and regularity, but the fact that $4600 could be withheld by one employe shows that something was wrong with the department bookkeeping. e Don’'t miss Socialist final grand rally Monday night, Alhambra Theater.
