Thursday being a holiday this phase of the acci- dent was not felt, but yesterday, when the many factories lying in the district bounded by Sacramento, Howard, First and Ninth streets tried to start up their machinery they found that the preclous fluid which is their life was wanting. The immediate result was a procession of indignant manufacturers into the office of Superintendent Naphtaly, who could only try soft consolatory words. Toward evening, however, the situation was decidedly more promising. The new dynamo room of the plant was not in- | jured by the sudden flare Thursday morn- ing. All day vesterday men were at work ‘onnnflcling feeders to it from the Potrero power-house. By this morning many of the establishments will again be getting the electricity and Monday the reign of darkness will be over. “I can state,” said. Superintendent Naphtaly last night, “that by Monday every one will be receiving his supply of electric power. We are now running two feeders from the Potrero power- house to the new dynamo house here, This part of the plant was hurt only in the wiring and that is being replaced.” & All day yesterday perspiring men say-: ing unkind things climbed winding stalrs to their sky-scraping offices. In the evening darkness still reigned, excepting in a few of the big places like the St. Francis and the Palace hotels, Many of the cigar stores used Chinese lanterns, with- a decidedly picturesque effect. — g CALL TE OF ENGLAND’S LABOR REVOLT The same problem that today holds the attention of the Ameriesin people—a remedy for the upbuilding of colossal for- tunes—is a vital issue in Eng- land.

Soothes and Quickly Cures Ailing Eyes, * HUSBANDS FIGHT WHILE WIVES ENCOURAGE THEM Two Men and One Woman Are Arrested and the Female Prisoner Hints at Injustice. Policemen Testify That They Ignored Other Woman Because She Observed the Law. BY JAMES C. CMWFDBD. Mr. and Mrs. William Pearl and Thomas M. Daly were arrested and charged witlt having disturbed the peace, and Mrs, Pearl sought enlighten- ment from Police Judge Conlan as to why Mrs. Daly was excluded from that Indignity, inasmuch as she was actively participant in the complained of of- tense. Far be it from Mrs. Pearl's inten- tion or desire to hint at police dis- crimination, put she could not help imagining that only' a “pull” of some kind induced Patrolmen Burke and Smith to ignore Mrs. Daly when they gathered in the trio there accused. However, the Judge need not subject himself to inconvenience by finding answer to Mrs. Pearl's query. She could wait, fortified by the reflection that time almost invariably clears up mysteries that are possible of solution. Besides, justice may be slow, but it is pretty sure to get there in the long run. 2 His Honor promised to refrain from unnecessary exertion in the proposed quest. Mi Daly was i1l abed at her home, Folsom and Montcalm streets, when Mrs. Pearl visited her to tender such cheer asja feminine invalid may derive from listéning to neighborhood gossip, and when Mr. Daly arrived and fountd the Samapitan in the midst of a most savory narration he rudely ordered her to begoue, and, she alleges, followed her from the house and ungallantly battered. her. Fearful of the conse- quences {f her husband heard of how she had béen treated, she did not men- tion the matter to him until conscience chided her secrecy and then she un- folded the happening. 3 Mr. Pearl bravely restrained his im- pulse to annihilate Mr. Daly and might have succeeded in thoroughly subju- gating it if he and his wife had not chanced to meet thé Dalys last Thurs- day evening on the streét. At the sight of his better half’s assailant Mr. Pearl’s discretion fled and the men were engaged in rough 'and tumble combat, urged on by thein respective spouses, when Patrolmen Burke and Smith ar- rested them. g But why did #héy arrest Mrs. Pearl also and permit’Mrs. Daly to:go free? Simply because Mrs. Daly bowed to the law's authority, while Mrs. Pearl defled it by attempting: to rescue her hus- band. Mrs. Pearl willihave something more to say to the court when the case is recalled for hearing this morning. v e Paul Wittner, accused of grand lar- ceny, was dismissed by Judge Mogan after the attorney for the defense had proved there was on asportation—how he did love to repeat the word—mean- ing thereby that there-was no actual transfer of money between the parties involved. It was prov, however, that Mr. Wittner sat in réom 510, Union Trust bullding, and recefved persons who re- sponded to his advertisement for a su- perintendent to manage a banana plan- tation for the United Fruit Company, Among those who applied for the po-i sitlon was J. A. Pearce, 1616 Oxford street, Berkeley, who gave Mr. Witt- ner a check for $100, then became sus- picious of Mr. Wittner's honesty and had his suspiclon confirmed, stopped payment on the paper and swore to a complaint charging its reciplent with grand larceny. ) ‘Master Ernest Grubert, who accused George Kenzfe of batetry, declared he had surfeit of the glassblowing profession and would transfer his vocation: to that of tar-roofing. ‘While employed as an apprentice in a bottle manufactory the boy was made a butt for coarse practical jokes perpe- trated by the journeymen, one of whom, ‘Mr. Kenzle, went so far as to drop molten glass on his pantaloons and frreparably damage.the garments. When he resented théldestruction of his trousers by ‘“‘going ‘Mr. Kenzie with a heavy implement ter Grubert was battered by that gen- tleman, but would rather have him orally reprimanded than gent to jail. Judge Shortall complied with the boy’s request. . .o & Henry Brochelman of 533 Mission street eaw an advertisement In a German news- paper announcing that for $250 cash an elderly man of respectable appearance would be given a half-interest in a saloon and lodging-house at Pacific and Sansome streets, and that all required of him in eturn would be the alluring charm of his presence at the bar. . He hied him to the premises and was re- cefved by Fred Albrecht and a woman, who posed as that gentleman’s wife, and after she had escorted him throughout the house she asked him to pay the $250 and assume his half-proprietorship right there and then, but he demurred, whereupon she grabbed his wallet, containing $300, and disappeared, nor has she since been seen by the policemen who are leekin‘l‘ her. Mr. Albrecht was arrested, but until the woman is caught he will hardly be given a hearing by Judge Con!:n. . . Mary Anderson, accused of keeping a disorderly house at 865% Market street, within view and earshot of the Lincoln School, was given by Judge Mogan one week within which to vacate the prem- ises, and Patrolman McEntee is detalled- to see that the court's m.nndute is obeyed. . .
