STEALING FLOWERS.


The Floral Society Asks for the Sup
preston of This Evil.
The loDg-c0ntinucd practice of despoil-
ing the graves in the cemeteries of their
floral adornments, and of stealing the flow
ers from the Yards OF unoccupied dwellings
or the residences of persons absent from
the city, has called forth vigorous protest
from the California Floral Society. The
following has been sent 20 Chief Of Police
Crowley, who has promised to lend his aid
to the suppression of the evil:
To the Honorable CHIEF Of Police Of the CITY
and County Of san FrdHciscO-SIR : lu pursu-
ance TO Instructions from the California State

lion to the bands Of thieves who make II q bus
ness to steal flowers, ornamental plants, shrub
berry, etc, from private grounds, and to numer-
Gus individuals who make a living and stock
their gardens In that way. We also call your
attention TO band Of thieves who drsecIate
the resting places OF the city's dead by stealing
the floral frames and ornaments from the newly

practices as tlieSe are not tolerated In other
cities of the country, and their present preva-

Mrs. Elizabeth Sands.

Editor Call: BY dispatch from Balti-
more in to-day's CALL it is stated that
Mrs. Elizabeth Sands, the oldest woman in
Baltimore, died on the Sd inst. at the age of
101 years. Mrs. Sands was born on the 18th
of March, 1889. The writer of this note saw
the woman more than forty-five years ago
when he was mere boy, and she was quite
an old woman at that time Mrs. Sands
was well known throughout the whole State
of Maryland, and on account of her splendid
record there was no woman better liked
than she. There was no man or woman in
the United States more patriotic than Mrs.
Sands. She was even at the battle of North
Point in the year 1872 and was there
when Francis Scott Key wrote ''rhe Star
spangled Banner" Mrs. Sands has a
nephew in San Francisco-George B. Eess,
prominent member of the Volunteer Fire
Department. and three grand-nephews and
one grand-niece, the sons and daughters of
the late Joseph S. Hess, an old pioneer.

RUNNING DOWN A TRAIN.

The Cannon Ball Vestibule Captured by
Fleet Footed Backwoudsman.
Daisy HOllenback's Boulder Creek
train, better known as the CannOn-ball
Vestibule," had an experience last Sunday
that beats the record of its many adven-
lures. As the train was dashing along with
its accustomed lightning speed" on its
way from Boulder to this city, backwoOds-
man at point about two miles north of
FELTON, hailed Engineer Fowler to be taken
aboard. The train was going too rapidly
to stop within couple of miles and kept
on to FELTON,. The man stood as if sur
prised for a moment and watched the train
disappearing in the distance without CIV
ing evidence of stopping. As lie was bound
to catch the train he started after it, bound
ing along the ties at as great speed as the
lightning Cannon-ball NeStibule. The
chase lasted to FELTON,, the train arriving
there but minute ahead Of the fleet-footed
wood-chopper. When Engineer Fowler saw
the man about to run down the train he
pulled out of the station and started for
Santa Cruz. In vain dld he try TO increase
the speed of the engine, and on the down
grade, too, but the modern Mercury had
tU0 great an impetus to get left. He soon
caught up with the rear coach, and, grasp
ing the hind platform, pulled the train to
standstill until he got on.
The only revenge Daisy" could take on
his captor was TO charge him extra train
rates, as lie did not stop to buy ticket

STOCKTON'S CHARTER.
The Supreme Court Holds That
the New One Is All Right.

The Supreme Court yesterday handed
down decision in the case Of the Peo-
pie ex rel. the Attorney General against
Il. f. Bagley and others, in which it af-
frmed the validity of the Stockton city
charter. This appeal was from q judgment
entered in favor of the defendants upon
stipulated facts in quo-warranto proceed
ing prosecuted by the Attorney General
against them to determine the right to act
as the City Council of the city of Stockton,
and of which they were adiudged by the
Superior Court to be the duly constituted
members.
Up to 1854 Stockton was Incorporated
under special charter, but in December of
that year it became reorgaEized as q city OF
the fourth class under the provisions of the
act of 1888. 1t existed under that act until
March, 1889, when its present charter,
framed by the freeholders of the city and
adopted by its electors, went into effect.
The act of 1888 provided that the City
Council should consist OF the Mayor and
twelve Councilman, seven of whom should
constitute quorum, and at the late cleo
tiOn, held under the charter Of 1883, twelve
men were duly elected. II the COuncllmen
elected under the provisions OF the new
charter cannot legally hold office then the
former Councilman must hold over.
The new charter provided for five Coun-
cilmen only, and at the first election under
the charter i've men were elected. Thus
two sets of men claimed to constitute the
City Council. The contention of the first
set Of Councilman was that inasmnch as
the act Of 1854 was general law it entirely
governed the provisions of the charter I'M
der the clause of the Constitution which
says that 'cities or towns and all charters
shall be subject TO and controlled by gen.
eral laws" and, therefore, as the new char
ter and the general law conflict as TO the
composition of the Council the general law
OF 1855 must govern.
The Supreme Court said that the conflict
certainly existed; but while the act of 1888
is general law it differed from other gen.
eral laws which have been held to control
charters in that it is not mandatory, but
merely permiSsive, and until its terms are
accepted it does not require corporations
falling within any of its clauses to organize,
nor after the organization is made is the
city precluded from changing its form of
government. That right is guaranteed eX-
pressly by clause of the Constitution re-
lating to cities of over 10000 and under
100000 in population. The new charter en-
tirtly superseded the old one, and the
judgma emit of the lower court was affirmed.

Dealers i'll dry goods report a dull ana

Tobacco is dull, but cigars are more
active owing to tariff agitation.
Coal is fairly active and firm, and Sydney
has advanced 90 cents per ton. The re-
ceipts at this port in July were $4,000 tons
against $500 in uly, 1889. For 1890 to date
they are 81, 40 tons against $500 for the
corresponding period in 1889. The local
circular of |. Steuart says:
Continued scarcity of coal tonnage In Aus.
tralian waters for loading al present and IN Inc
near future has kent The price OF that coal conf
paratively high, while the strike In the Yelling
ton coal mine remaining unsettled has Kept the
prices OF other Goals firm. but no such figures
rule now as certainly would have prevailed III
former years under similar conditions. Inc
only reason assignable for this Is diminished
consumption.
Owing to the nigh outward wheat freights rul-
ing from this port al present, futures Should GER
tainly prove a strong attraction for eoa-carrylng
and other ships To head for this port later Id Inc
year.
Lumber continues In good demand, and
prices show no further change. The re-
ceipts at this port for the first seven months
of 1890. compared with the same period in
1889, were as follows: Pine, 32,673, 600

Specie shipments from San Francisco
during the first seven months of 1890 were
$4,000 against SIS 10000 during the
same period in 1889. The silver shipments
this year are only S254, 300 against S., 209, $50

HAkBOR MATTERS.
Teredo-Proof Armor-PenaIty on Clay

Teredo-Proof Armor-Penalty on Clay
Street Wharf
The greater part Of the time at the meet
ing of the HaIbor Commissioners on Tues
day afternoon was consumed in the award
ing Of the contract for coating piles with
teredo-proOf armor. This important ques-
ton has long vexed the commission, and
various methods have been tried with vary
ing success. Three bids were opened, the
Anderson, $4,000; the Vulcan Pile ArmOr,
$4,000 and the Paraffine Paint Company's
p and 3. pile covering, $4,000. The rep
resentatiyes Of each company were present
and argued long on their methods. Finally
the contract was awarded to the Paraftine
Paint Company for $4,000
There was also livery discussion over
the proposition TO enforce the penalty fol-
delay on b. Mcmahon e. Son, tile builders
of Clay-street pier. The wharf was not
completed until $50 days after contract time
allowance for iDclement weather and other
unavoidable delays, figured out 100 days for
which he thought the contractors should
be charged the contract rate of $50 per day
for delay. He also thought that the
McMahOns should be charged with thirteen
piles, the number less than the specifica-
tiOns called for that did not enter the
structure. The matter, however, was laid
over for final decision at the meeting to-
morrow.

The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Children held its monthly session yes
terday afternoon.
The report of the Secretary for the
month showed that 50 complaints had been
entered, involving the cases OF SO children !;
twelve of these had been prosecuted, re-
sulting in convictions; 90 children re-
turned to their parents, 10 placed in insti-
buttons and in families. The cash ac-
count showed $40 dues received. 81 dona-
ton, $3.50 So disbursed, and balance on
hand of S16S 50.
1. T. Milliken, of the committee appointed
to secure quarters suitable for place oil
detention for Juvenile delinauents and lost
children. reported that he had interviewed
Supervisor Bush, and had learned that one
of the former court-rooms in the old City
Hall had been set apart for their reception,
and that matron had been appointed Tor
the receiving department OF the prison IN
the same building. with instructions also
TO look after the children. A room VIII as
soon as possible be furnished with neces-
sary appliances, including cots, bedding,
chairs and stove, to secure the carrying out
of which in the best and most expeditions
manner, Supervisor Bush is working with
the Committee on Furniture and Supplies.
Supervisor Bush also called attention 10
the fact that the body to which he be-
louged is continually made the subject Of
adverse criticism in certain quarters, and Is
charged with extravaganza in case of an
outlay of money in addition to or in excess
of the expenses incurred by the routine OF
board work. For this reason, Mr.. Bush
said, the supplies for this room and for the
purposes intended would necessarily be OF
tile simplest description. and would be
gathered from such material as the Com
mlttee on Furniture and Supplies may have
at its command
Dr.. Mcdonald thought that the comfort
of the unfortunate children should be the
first matter to be considered, and the criti-
cisms could be looked after in the future.
The following-named gentlemen were APP
pointed as agents TO look after the interests
of the society in the interior towns Of the

proving fatal a few hours laIer.
Gum then proceeded to load his weapon
