He will not only five months, but he will agree to have an electric light on every other pale along a portion of the line, and, more then that, will arrange for a better system of transfer than was in use| before the fire.

Pres- | ident Newhall briefly stated the posi- tion of the company. He said that the catastrophe demoralized the entire system, and that the company found itself owning a franchise, part of a roadbed and some real estate. He said that since he had made application for permission to turn the cable road into an electric line he had received a num- ber of delegations from the Western Addition urging him to push through the project 'We have ‘:n employing from 150 to 200 men,” e continued, “and they want to g0 to work. We have promised to give them the first chance if we are permitted to go ahead.” In answer to estions Newhall ex- plained that it would take a year to put the line into shape as 2 cable road, but only four months would be re- quired to install the trolley system. He also stated that while there might be one difficult grade for an electric line the difficulty could easily be met Supervisor Rea, however, asked ques- tione as to what the company would be willing to give the people. He wanted to know if ornamental poles would he used and the feed wires put under ground, and the reply was that would be done in the downtown dis- trict. 1In response to his request for information as to transfer facilities President Newhall stated that the line issued transfers with the California street line at Hyde street and expects to make arrangements with the United Raflroads to transfer at Polk and Union streests and ‘s0 on Powell or Kearny. The com: tee decided to take tpe matter under advisement.

Police Judge Shortall will ®decide next Wednesday afternoon whether to hold Ernest Denicke on the charge of ‘murder for shooting and killing “John Doe” on East street, opposite Lombard-street wharf, on April 20, or discharge him from custody. The case for the prosecution was closed yesterday morning by the tes- timeny of N. Kariya, a Japanese, and | Detectives Hammill and Dow. who is cook on the steamer Golden Gate, testified that he saw a man ly- ing on East street. The witness was unable to tell the man's nationality. The man asked him for a glass of | water, which was given him. Witness | d1d not see the man die. Hammill and Dow testified to ar- resting the defendent on May 4 and that defendant had acknowledged shooting the man and said he was sorry, but he had to do his duty. He handed them the revolver with which he had done the shooting. Ex-Governor Budd then made a mo- tion for the discharge of the defend- ant on the ground that the evidence Kariya, of the prosecution did not show that |any crime had been committed on | April 20 or at any other time, and also showed conclusively that if crime had been committed it was done by the defendant in the discharge of his duty as an officer in endeavoring to apprehend a person who had cem- | mitted a erime in his presence. Budd referred to the definitions of murder in the first and second degrees {and of manslaughter, and contended that the defendant was not guilty of any one. He laid stress upon the May | or's proclamation ordering any eiti- zen to enforce the law by aven killing |a looter. It was monstrous, he said, in the circumstances existing on April| 20 to have the defendant charged | with myrder for doing his duty axd his xmg besmirched by appearing gn the urt records as charged with murder. Assistant District Attorney Ward ‘argued that the defendant should be held to answer for murder and a jury allowed to determine whethér he was guilty or innocent. He saw no dis- tinction between the case of Simmons, Vance and Boynton, held to answer for the murder of H. C. Tilden, and the case of the defendant. He con- tended that the Mayor's proclamation was not-a valid document and should be eliminated from the discussion Attorney . A. Ruef followed with an argument in support of the motion to dismiss. He commended the Mayor for issuing the proclamation, as the only law that existed at that time was the law of necessity. The Jydge said he would reserve his decision on the motion till Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. i Help From German Drulds. Information was received from Ber- lin, Germany, yesterday to the effect that the supreme arch of the Druids in Germany had sent an appeal to all the groves in‘the German empire that each grove contribute to the amount of its ability to a fund for the relfef of the members in Californfa. The request asks that the contributions be sent before the 15th of June so tHat such | can be transmitted without delay. ISelf—Respecting Persons ol next | FUND 13 HERE Raises Sum Among Eastern Firms. Only Are Eligible ; for Benefits. BY LAURA BRIDE POWERS. In times of stress two classes of needy people are to be reckoned with —those who will talk of their troubles and those who won't. Of the first class there's seldom a need to worry, their frankness or their assertiveness, or their common sense, whichever you please, bringing their necessities to the front. It's the retir- ing, sensitive, reticent brother that needs to be looked up and a friendly hand extended to nim. And thus will he unbosom himself under the glow of communal sympathy—a thing far re- moved from pity, the despised thing of the proud. It was this thought that prompted E. W. A. Waterhouse of Waterhouse & Lester to make an appeal to his East- ern correspondents in behalf of the proud poor of the city—the reticent poor who have refused to lay bare to | the world's glare their losses and mis- | fortunes, and who have not been | reached by the quasi-public mgthqu of the Red Cross. “Just to set them going again,” sald Mr. Waterhouse, “that these self-re- specting men and women may the sooner become self-supporting. They don't want charity, but they will wel- come help to get on their feet again.” And so the appeal went East three weeks ago that equipment for work might be procured. And the appeal fell not upon unheed- ing ears. Althpugh all the firms had contributed at the first great call they were impressed by the spirit of the smaller voice and the response was immediate—with a P. 8. to call again, if needed. And blessings upon the great impersonal East! And behold the fruits of the appeal, snuggled away in the Bank of Califor- nia—$2635. in good gold coin, $200 already having been drawn for press- ing cases of personal knowledge. The following firms were the con- tributors to the Waterhouse fund, the largest sum yet raised for private dis- tribution: Cleveland Axle Manufacturing Com- |pany, Canton, O.; Royer Wheel Com- ‘pdn\. Cincinnati, O.; The Toledo Car- riage W, W. Company, Tolado, O.; Stan- dlrd Table & Oil Cloth Co., New York, Y.; Stengel & Rothschild, Newark, N. I.; Excelsior Seat Company, Colum- bus, O.; Excelsior Seat Company (em- loyes) Seward & Son, New Haven, gflnn‘ liam and Harvey Rowland, Phlludelm\m, Mutual Wheel Com- pany, Moline, .: Rhode Island Per-| kins H.-S. Company, Providence, R. 1.; American .Horseshoe Company, Phil- lipsburg, N. J.; Edward Smith & Co., |New York. Of these, the American Horseshoe Company of Phillipsburg subscribed $1000, the Rhode Island Perkins Horse Shoe Company $500 and Edward Smith & Co. $500. And in most instances “Come again” was noted in the corner where such things go—which Mr. Waterhouse will be pleased to do when the present fund runs low. The distribution of the meney, or| its equivalent, has been placed in the | hands of Mrs. Columbus Waterhouse, | 3840 Clay street, chairman; Mrs. A. W, Scott, 305 Buchanan street, and Mrs. Layra Bride Powers, The Call. Have you friends who fit the condi- tions above? Then communicate at once with any member of the commit- | tee and rest assured that the individ- uality of the fund is its abolition of publicity. | s PENIEL RESCUE HOME IS SORELY IN NEED OF HELP rds Must Be Thrown om Their Re- sources if Ald Is Not Forthcoming. The Peniel Rescue Home, located in Mission camp, between Ninéteenth and | Twentieth, Dolores and Church streets, | has made an appeal for help, Includ-'| ing the girls who are in the home's care, nineteen persons are in need of | all kinds of supplies.
