So thick and long was the mustache of Neil Smith, accused of wvagrancy, that it made his speech unintelligible when e endeavored to plead not| guiity before Judge Fritz. His words seemed 1o be jumbled and his tone was | rumbling as he tried to filter his plea through the bushy lip adornment. He was given thirty days and advised to| shear his face. . 1 Rogers was sentenced to five mon imprisonment after Judge Ca- | baniss became convinced that he had L3 Nels Hagenson's watch, as| char Nels lives at Belvedere and he was spending the night with Mr. Rogers, at the latter's home in this city, when the robbery was perpe- | trated. lliain Headley, a colored seaman, averred that it was in playful spirit a muzzle of his revoiver rson of his shipmate, also colored, as the een dances and sip- | ped beer at the bar of a Pacific-street temple of Terpsichors.

Before or- dering adjournment the Judge contin- ued the case till to-day and told Mr. Jacobs that he might retire, but the latter's wife commanded him to re- .uain where he was, and she, of course, was obeyed. Again the Judge inform- ed him that he was at liberty to step down, and Mr. Jacobs replied that his wife told him to stay there. So there the Judge left him. » Fred C. Groth, who described him- | self as a business agent of the Gas Workers’ Union, was dismissed by Judge Fritz because the policeman who charged him with peace disturb- ance failed to appear to prosecute. Mr. Groth explained that he and a friend went into a Grant-avenue restaurant on election night and were attacked by a dog and that their resistance of the canine attack was the cause of The dog was a total stranger to him, Mr. Groth averred, and, without any provocation whatso- ever, endeavored to bite away a por- tion of one of his (Mr. G.'s) friend’s legs. . Frederick Bridge made his twen- tieth appearance in the Police Court on the charge of vagrancy and Judge Mcgan intimated intention of sending him to prison for six months. The man’s relatives, old and respected resi- dents of San Francisco, requested his arrest and suggested the punishment. He is a hopeless dipsomaniac. S J. Siki, a Japanese, smaller in stature than the average of his race, was so chagrined by the report that the Mikado had sued for peace with the Czar that he drank copiously of whisky and then made night even more hideous than is its wont on Du- pont street. Compatriots, who were ostensibly endeavoring to restrain the little man, ran away when the police- man hove in :ighl.. F.lned $6. Miss Lucille Adams said she thought she recognized an “old towney” in the person of Roundsman H. M. Smniith when he entered her home in the first ticck of Eddy street. He was in plain attire and when she began question- ing him as to why and when he left dear old Egypt, Ill., and informed him that he appeared but little older than he did when she started West, he did not attempt disillusion, but cor- dially invited her to drink at his ex- pense. No sooner had she filled the glasses and pocketed the money ten- dered by him in payment for their contents than he placed her under ar- rest for selling liquor without a li- cense. To say that she was dum- | founded would not begin to describe her feelings when he disclosed his identity. Of course, she would not have sold the drinks—a thing she never did in her life before—if she had not firmly believed that he was from dear old Egypt, where all her folk dwell. Judge Mogan will hear more of Miss Adams' ple.fl. on November 21. . . Aftre feloniously taking a $100 horse from the barn of F. Depaoli at 721 Filbert street, Albert Glannotti steered the animal to the barn of Wil- liam Clough at Fourteenth and Shot- well streets and offered to sell it for $30 cash. The cheapness of the pro- posal made Mr. Clough suspicious and he quietly telephoned his suspicion to the Seventeenth-street police station, | where a description of the missing equine had just been filed by its owner. That's how Mr. Giannotti came to be arrested and charged with grand lar- ceny. Judge Fritz has continued the case till next Monday. —_———— Commitment Is Defective. Attorneys P. E. Zabala and J. Wyatt, who were sent to jail by Judge Smith of nta Cruz for refusing to appear for a defendant when ordered to do so by the tourt, have ten days in which to prepare their arguments. The case came before the Supreme Court yesterday on a writ of habeas corpus, but it was found that the com- mitment was Improperly prepared and the case was therefore postponed until the afternoon of November 21. ———— e Hayward Deal Closed. The attorney for the Hayward es- tate yesterday closed the deal trans- | ferring the ownership of the big office bullding on Montgomery street ffom the estate to Mrs. Kohl. The check for $1,000,000 was received from the new owner and deposited with the Hibernia Bank. en all de | FOR CLIFF ROAD ark Comumissioners Are in Favor of Supervisors’ Plan to Construct Stone Wall LIBERAL GIFT TO CITY AL Captain James MeDonald to | Provide the Money for a! | New Convenience Station| R Improvement of park properties, in- cluding a stone parapet for the CIIff | ,Toad and the routine business were | ! discussed yesterday afternoon by the | Park Commissioners in the office of | President Adolph Spreckels, 827 Mar- | ket strect. There were present Com- | missioners Spreckels, Sullivan, Lloyd | and Dingee. Suilivan was compell- | ed to leave shortly after the meeting | was called to order, but he remained | long enough to say that he favored an ! Investigation of ~the bids submitted | last we=k for the privilege of publish- | ing the Park News, the official park | programme. He thought that as| Quirk & Co. and Phillips, Smyth & | Van Orden, bidders, were very close | to each other in a business way there | might be collusion. However, as Quirk | & Co.’s bid meant a substantial sum | for the treasury of the commission in | excess of any that other firms offered, | Fresident Spreckels did not see the | necessity of allowing the contract to ! remain unindorsed. It was finally | agreed that the matter should go over until the next meeting of the board, when it will b2 decided what disposi- tion shall be made of the privilege. i Captain James McDonald, through | the board, made a generous offer to| the city. Captain McDonald says that he wants to present the city with an improved public convenience station { for the park at Filbert and Stockton streets. Captain McDonald said that all that he desired the Commissioners to do was to stand the expense for grading and piping. - The offer was ac- cepted. Mr. Sullivan that the gift other generous spirited citizens. Supervisor Brandenstein, of the Board of Supervisors, appeared before the board with plans for the proposed new parapet at the edge of the road that leads from the Clift House to the beach. Mr. Brandenstein explained that the Supervisors had ap- | propriated nearly $5000 for the im provement, and all that was desired | was the sanction of the Park Commis- l said that he hoped would be followed by donations by public- sioners. NEW SURVEY WANTED. A question arose as to the survey of the lands owned by the.city, and Mr. Lloyvd d he thought that some of | the property that should be within the city lines was being used by persons who had no right to occupy it. He ad- vised that the City Engineer run the lines again. Fresident Spreckels added that when this was done he did not think there would be any objection to going ahead with the wall. | Mr. Brandenstein said that City En- | gineer Woodward intended to make | use of the surpius cash, over the cost | of the parapet, to build a nine-foot | sidewalk along the line of the wall. | The parapet will be three and a half feet high and constructed of natural | rock. | Mr. Lloyd then moved that the City Engineer give the exact lines, partic- ularly at the north end of the road, and when it was ascertained just where the lines are the building of the wall shall proceed. The motion also included the giving of specific author- ity to the Supervisors to proceed with the work. Carried. A communication was read from Chairman James D. Phelan of the Mc- Kinley monument committee inviting the Park Commissioners to take an ac- tive part in the ceremony of receiving the monument on behalf of the city on the 24th of the present month. Mr. Lloyd moved that President Spreckels be appointed to receive the monument on behalf of the Park Commissioners. Mr. Spreckels suggested that Mr. Sulli- van do the honors for tne commission, but as Mr. Lioyd insisted that his mo- tlon prevail it was decided that tge question be taken under consideration and reported upon later. A band will be engaged for the occasion. Mr. Lloyd moved that a new pipe be laid from the end of the pipe of the windmill pumping station to a point | west of Strawberry Hill, where a reser- | voir will be constructed. The water | will be needed for the new half-mile | track. One mile of pipe will be re- | quired and advertisements for bids | were ordered. The expense for pipe | will be about $500. i The Association for the Improvement and Adornment of San Francisco re- quested that Park Superintendent Mec- Laren furnish loam and slips of plants | for window flower boxes that people have been asked to place in the win- | dows of their homes. President Spreck- els reminded the board that there had | already been set aside enough boxes | of plants for the city schools and that the commission had its hands full. The board then decided that it would not be | practical for it to assume the extra expense of providing thousands of slips and the necessary loam to citizens. AUTOMOBILE PERMITS. The board has decided that all appli- cants for duplicate automobile certi- ficates must swear to affidavits before a notary stating that their origiral per- mits have been lost. Claims were made on behalf of Gladys Holbert, a little girl who was | injured by being thrown out of a goat | cart at the children’s playgrounds, and | by P. J. Flood, who says that he lost | his positim for glving information | against an ex-policeman who thot an | elk that was browsing in the paddock. . The commissioners have provided a re- | ward of $500 for “the arrest and con- | viction” of any one committing such an offense, but Flood failed to cause the arrest or conviction necessary. Both cases were referred to Superintendent McLaren with request that he report after making investigation. Orinda Parlor.

The request will be granted if the parlor agrees to plant the tree ac- | cording to the superintendent’s direc- | tions. | Screens for the windows of the lunch- eon room of the children’s playgrounds were ordered. Commissioner Lloyd said that he had asked Superintendent Mc- | Laren to wire several oak trees so that a bevy of mountain quail that he had ordered for the park could be held in captivity. The meeting then adjourned. —_——— Gets Nothing but Experience, The Supreme Court decided yester- day that C. Helling’s fingers were not |worth $2500. The litigant, while in | the employ of H. B. Schindler, got his !hand tangled in a buzz planer and when he subsequently emerged from & hospital minus his fingers he brought |suit for damages. He won a verdict ltor $2500 in ‘the Superior Court, but the higher tribunal reverses that de- «ision. i H on behalf | | Ventura and Yolo counties. SIONE PARAPET BEGINNING SEARCH IN A NEW FIELD A systematic investigation of the} building materials of California is in progress under the direction of State| Mineralogist Aubury. The work was begun in Alameda County, where Mr. Narramore was engaged in making a search for deposits of substances used in building. It will now be continued in many counties. Heretofore some- thing has been done in this direction. Large deposits of various substances of the non-metallic sort have been de- scribed and statistically estimated, but there has been no general search over the entire fleld for materials that may be used in building. The State Mineralogist believes that many deposits of great value may be discovered. Not long ago the slate in-| dustry of California was quite small. | The cement industry is of more recent date, but a fine record has been made. | It has been discovered that in a large coal deposit in Alameda County, at Tesla, there are overlying clays that make excellent bricks. Several coun- ties produce marble. El Dorado County can supply slate in almost unlimited quantities. Folsom granite has & name | all over the coast. Colusa County| Santa Barbara County and several| other counties have large deposits of fine building stone. TAKE A WIDE RANGE. Cement was produced last year in counties as far removed from one an- other as Solano, Los Angeles, San| | Bernardino and Napa. The output| !of these four counties was 640,- | {868 Dbarrels of the total value of| | nearly 1,000,000, the exact figures be- | ing $968,727. Brick clays were produced | in Alameda, Butte, Contra Costa,| Fresno, Humboldt, Kern, Kings, Los| | Angeles, Madera, Marin, Mendocino, | | Orange, Riverside, Sacramento, San | | Bernardino, San Diego, San Francisco, | San Luis Obispo, San Mateo, Santa | Barbara, Santa Clara, Shasta, Sonoma, | | Tehama, Tulare and Ventura counties, | and the aggregate output of these | counties in this direction was worth | | $1,999,546. Pottery clay was produced | to the value of $99,907 in Amador, Los Angeles, Placer and Riverside counties. | | Glass sand is found in Los Angeles and Monterey counties. The granite pro- duct quarried in Fresno, Madera, Ne- | vada, Placer, Riverside, Sacramento, | San Diego, San Luis Obispo, Santa | Cruz, Solano, Trinity, Tulare and Tuo-i lumne counties made a total showing | of $687,670 in 1903. | The lime output of California in 1903 | was valued by the State Mineralogist | at $418,280, and the limestone that was | quarried was worth $163,988. Amador, | Inyo, Riverside, San Bernardino and | Tuolumne counties have an annual| output of marble amounting to SXDO.UOOI in round figures. Sandstone is pro-! duced in Colusa, Los Angeles, San Luis | Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Clara, The total | value of sandstone quarried last year | in the counties that have been men- tioned was reported officially to be $585,309. The slate output of a year that was marketed brought $70,000. The total for these few commodities alone that have been mentioned in the fore- going for one year was $4,992,252 in value. FIELD ONLY SCRATCHED. As in the case with gold and other minerals in California, the field has hardly been tilled. No one doubts that from quartz ledges, placers, dredge, drift, hydraulic and gravel miles a vast amount of treasure will yet be produced in this State. There is no reason to doubt that many materials that are not considered of much mo- ment at present, when the mining sta- tistics of a year are compiled, will yet figure very greatly in making up a grand total for the mineral annual showing of California after awhile. It is a significant fact, and having its relation to the present systematic search for building materials, as indi- cating what good may be accomplish- ed, that since the time when gold was discovered the principal mineral and indeed the only one of large importance in California as a home product, that now there are known to be seventy- five mineral substances in the State. Clays and their products were the fourth in commercial value of the min- eral products of California in 1903, the leading three being gold, petroleum and copper, in the order mentioned. When all the information has been gathered relative to building materials in Cali- fornia, the facts will be presented in a bulletin, cne of a quite long series of informational value that the State has caused to be published through the State Mining Bureau. . This being a time of careful invest- ment in mines by conservative capl- talists, nothing can be of more value to this State than to have its varied min- | ing resources carefully described and set out with the approval of the Cali- fornia State Mineralogist. Maps and registers. are valuable in this connec- tion as affording needed and reason- ably exact information about mineral deposits, the condition of mines as re- gards development, the values of out- puts by counties of various substances and other facts that men of money must first ascertain as conditions. pre- cedent to sending into the State the money that is needed for development purposes. Under the several State Mineralogists that have been at the head of the State Mining Bureau of California a large bibliography relating to mines has been created. A list of publications that are now available at the State Mining Bu- reau and that can be obtained at a | nominal price by mail has been recent- ly prepared. COUNTRY RESOURCES. From this it appears that county maps and registers have been issued by the State Mining Bureau for the counties of Plumas, Siskiyou, Lake, Trinity, Nevada, Placer, El Dorado Inyo, Shasta, San Bernardino, San Diego, Sierra, Amador, Tuolumne, Butte, Mariposa and Kern. Among the miscellaneous topics that have been treated in State publications for the in- formation of the public regarding the mineral resources of this State are the oil fields, the Mother Lode region, cop- per resources, saline deposits, quicksil- ver in Colifornia and chemical analy- ses of California petroleum. In addi- tion to the building materials bulletin one will be prepared concerning the gems and jewelers’ materials in Cali- fornia. The Grass Valley Tidings reports| that the Central Consolidated mine has been transferred to the Central Con- solidated Mining Company. The mine was formerly the property of the Cen- tral Gold and Silver Mining Com- pany. The conditions at Goldfield, Nevada, are reported by a miner, Who recently returned from the new camp, as fol- lowt It is a mining cam; of ol BRg comn i oL sl s bet on the turn of dice and cards; the streets ara o orowded that one has hard wark in | copper mines BUILONG MATERALS TO B¢ EIPLOITED Experts to Visit Counties i getting along the sidewalk; the town has such | an influx of people that the postoffice as the Place is unable to handle the mail and the citizens of the thriving town feel that they are fortunate iIf they get a letter within two weeks after its arrival; lots that were sold for $25 last April are now held at $4000; from the town's center for a radius of two miles in any direction there are tents erected that shield | £0ld seekers, i The Yukon World says that miners believe that the recent discovery on the Government road on Bunty Creek, a tributary of Rosebud, indicates a continuation of the White channel.

Bannifleld has begun suit in the Superior Court in Nevada County against the Crystal Lake Gold Mining Company, the owner of the Excelsior and Union quartz mines in Meadow Lakc Township, gemerally known as the Hartley mines, asking that the de- fendants shall be restrained from re- moving the machinery from the prop- | erty. DEALS FOR MINES. ‘ The Midnight mine, situated within' the city limits of Nevada City, has been sold to Willlam Bawden and John Vivian. The mine was formerly owned by the Edwin Tilley estate, ! According to the Bakersfield Call- fornian the Old Amalie and Barbaros- sa mines in the Amalie mining district, have been sold. Both mines have been operated. J. J. Mack and associates are reported to be thespurchasers. The Douglas Island News says that more than 3000 tons of copper ore will be shipped from the mines at Ellamar to the smelter at Tacoma for treat-| | ment. The Quicksilver Mining Company at New Almaden has issued an annual ré- port, from which it appears that the sales of quicksilver in twelve months amounted to $184,803. The yleld of | mercury per ton of ore was higher than in the year preceding. The rock mined amounted to 40,398 tons. { The sixth level in the Iron Mountain at Keswick has been opened up by the Iron Mountain Cop- per Company. The New Albany mine, near Carters, has been bonded by J. A. Bunting & Co. of San Francisco. The bond is re- ported to be for $50,000. Stockton men have bonded the Dun- ning farm in Linda Township, three miles east of Marysville, and it will be prospected for gold with drills. The ranch consists of 596 acres, of which 400 acres are bottom lands. | According to the Placer County Re- publican, deposits of soapstone are quite numerous in Placer County. One of these is on the Gable place, near Colfax. ST i MARYLAND IN DOUBT. Official Count Will Be Necessary to Determine Result of Election. BALTIMORE, Nov. 11.—That an of- | ficial count of the ballots cast for the | Presidential electors at last Tuesday’'s election in Maryland will be required before definite knowledge of the re- Sult can be assured was demonstrated | to-night by the semi-official count in Baltimore and in twenty of the twenty- three counties of the State. The unofficial returns received thus far indicate that seven Democratic | electors and one Republican elector was chosen. The Congressional situa- | tion remains unchanged, three Demo- | cratic and three Republican Congress- men having been elected. | Of the Presidential electors it is| safe to say that by the count C. J.| Bonaparte, Republicen, of Baltimore, | was elected, and the remaining seven Maryland members of the electoral college were chosen by an average ma- | Jjority of 400 for the Democrats. Both Democratic and Republican | leaders say that frauds and irregulari- ties were used in several counties, and hundreds of ballots have been heid up | by the supervisors in Baltimore and | in at least three counties. It will there- | fore require the decision of the State | Board of Canvassers to determine the | actual result. | —_——— CHAUFFEUR MOBBED AFTER HE HAD KILLED A WOMAN | Timely Arrival of Police Alone Saves Him From Death at Hands of a Crowd. NEW YORK, Nov. 11.—The timely arrival of a squad of police has prob- ably saved the life of William Vander~ heyden, a chauffeur, whose electric brougham had run down and killed an unknown Italian woman on Sev- enth avenue at the Twenty-ninth | street crossing. The chauffeur was | attacked by a big crowd who wit- | nessed the accident. He was beaten.' the clothes were torn from his bady‘ and when the police arrived he was unconscious. Vanderheyden made an attempt to rescue the woman by leaning over the | front of the car, but to no purpose. | He was quickly attacked by hundreds of men and boys. The police soon arrived, but had to use their clubs freely to disperse the angry crowd. ‘While the excitement was at its height the couple in the brougham disap- peared. —— MURDERER SENT TO PRISON FOR TERM OF FORTY YEARS DECATUR, Ill, Nov. 11.—Ray Brom of St. Joseph, who was arrested in Spo- kane and brought back to Decatur, charged with killing Richard L.
