T0 BUILD ROAD IN NICARAGUA Promoters of Central Ameri- can Enterprise Are Now | Conferring in This City| HAS A TOCAL BACKING Government Will Give a Valuable Concession as a Bonus for Proposed Line Among the recent arrivals at the St. Francis hotel is E. C. Pomeroy of Mad- ison, N. J.,, who 1{s interested in the Nicaragua Finance and Improvement Company, a newly incorporated cen- cern that has secured valuable conces- | slons from the Nicaraguan Government, among them a right to build and ope ate 450 miles of railroad in the Central American republic. Pomeroy has come here for the purpose of conferring with others who are interested in the com- | pany with him. Among the local stock- holders are Banker W. H. Crocker and Frederick Greenwood, the well-known young capitalist. Another prominent factor in the company is Joseph D. Red- ding, the well-known lawyer and club- man of New York, who formerly lived in this city, and who is president of the | company. Attorney Redding came here from New York several months ago in con- nection with the Nicaraguan company's affairs and has been in conference with Pomeroy and others at the St. Francis Hotel. Although the promoters of the enterprise are maintaining a great deal of secrecy regarding their venture, it has been learned that they have been assured a bonus of 2,420,000 acres of land, which has an estimated value of $148,900 in gold. It is sald that the greater part of the capital necessary to inaugurate work on the railroad has already been subscribed and that sur- veys are now being completed for the The latter will have a terminal at Nicaragua's sea ports and will fur- nish a much needed means for develop- ing the interior of the Southern repub- lic and facilitating the hdndling of the native products. s Disappears on Eve of Marriage. Edward Johnson, an electrician, has disappeared on the eve of his proposed ' marriage, and his flancee and her moth- er are conducting an industrious search | for the young man. Miss Gertrude Burnham of 915% Natoma street was to | be his bride and the wedding was to take place next week. Miss Burnham sus- pects that Johnson has met with foul ! play. Her mother does not think that such is the electrician’s fate, and be- | lieves that Johnson has found another girl. The police have been notified and are aiding in the search for Johnson.

If the officer for twenty-four hours after receiving the same shall delay or neglect to make such deposit, he shall be deemed gullty of misconduct in office and shall be removed.” SMITH’S ILLEGAL DEPOSITS. Section 424 of the Political Code, paragraph 4, says, “(Should either) un- lawfully deposit the same or any portion thereof in any bank or with any o .. banker or other person is punishable by imprisonment in State's prison for not less than one year or more than ten years, and is disqualified from holding any office in the State.” Section 2, chapter 1, article 4, page 32 of the mflnlcipal charter reads: “The Mayor shall vigilantly observe the official conduct of all public officers and the manner in which they execute their duties and fulfill their obliga- rtionm.- ® (¢ L8 duty or officlal misconduct shall come When any officlal defalcation- or willful neglect of to his knowledge, he shall suspend the delinquent officer or person from office pending an official /investigation.” The matters named above were given such publicity By the San Fran- cisco Chronicle upon the date named, that the Mayor is charged by this Grand Jury with gross neglect of duty in not taking official notice in ac- cordance with the section last quoted above. MISSION THEATER UNSAFE. That the Mayor has permitted the said Board of Public Works, through architect, W. D. Shea, the occupancy its of a building for theatrical purposes known as the Mission Theater, which in hardly any particular conforms with Ordinance $8 governing theaters. The Mayor has permitted his appointees upon the Board of Public Works, through its architect, W. D. Shea, the occupancy of a bullding located at 618- 620-622-624 Jackson street, in direct violation of the municipal ordinance covering the construction or alteration of buildings. This building is occupied as a house of prostitution and is commonly known brothel.” and designated as ‘“the municipal The Mayor has permitted the members of the Board of Public Works through its secretary, Morris Levy, to receipt and disburse money in direct opposition to the provisions of the charter. The Mayor is cognizant of the fact tect, W, D. Shea, serves but a few hours of each day in the public though being paid full time through the that the Board of Public Works' archi- service, city treasury. It has been determined as a fact that the sald W. D. Shea rarely arrives at his office before 11 o'clock in the forenoon, departs about twelve and rarely returns before three o'clock in the afternoon, leaving at 5 p. m. and frequently before. The Mayor has permitted the members of the Board of Public Works through its secretary, Morris Levy, to hold money deposited with him as a deposit upon the purchase of material belonging to the city and which was forfeited to the city, from April 23, 1904, to the time this Grand Jury, through its foreman, made demand upon the said Morris Levy for the amount, to February 1, 1905, the date of its deposit. HOLDS UP EMPLOYES. In nddition to the foregoing, it was determined from the testimony of Melville Herman that he (the said Melville Hernan) collected from employes —civil service and non-civil service—of the Departmnent of Health and other departments of the city divers sums of woney monthly for the benefit of the Schmits Central Club and delivered the same to Mr. Abe Ruef, and recelved from Mr. Ruci compensation at the rate of $100 per month. J. M. Copus testified that he collected from the street sweepers at the rate of about $1 per month each and pald same civil service. The minutes of the Board of Public Works are imperfect and do not show the complete transactions of the said board. 53 of the municipal charter expressly states that “The board shall keep and pre- serve a record of all its proceedings, * * * The secretary of the board shall keep a record of all its transactions, specifylng meetings, and giving the ayes A casual examination of the minutes will and noes upon all votes.” numerous technical errors. DISREGARDS THE CHARTER. Section 21, chapter 1, article VI, «All contracts shall be drawn under the supervision of the City At- tornes. * * * * Not a single contract xince Jannury 1; 1905, has been sub- mitted to the City Attorney. The same sectjon, chapter and article of the municipal charter in the third paragraph reads: “At the same time with the execution of the contracts the contractor shall execute to the city and county and deliver to the secretary of the board a bond in the sum named in the notice for proposals, with two or more sufficient sureties to be approved by the board, or shall deposit with a certified check upon some solvent bank for said arhount, for the secret the faithful performance of the contract.” never required the official approval of bonds in any contract, amount involved, either upon the bond itself, by resolution or by affirmative vote spread upon the minutes.
