present at the meeting of the board last

whether Bailiff Mcnamara of Police judges
Court No. 2 was particeps criminis in flch-
ing 81 from Harry Larsen and Jack Rob-
inson, couple Of sailors arrested for being
drunk and dismissed by order of the court.
The evidence showed that the principal
operator was Richard Croker, the ''exclu-
sive" messenger boy, who has gained some
notoriety lately for fixing cases. Captain
Stone testified that Croker went out with
the two sailors after they had been dis
charged, and later, when the messenger dis
covered that he was SUSPECTED of eXtOTting
money from the men, he returned and in
formed Captain Stone that he had collected
the money. but had not given it to the baiiff.
The Captain, thinking it was the simple
collection Of the fines, told him to go to Nc
Namara and give him the money.
In a few moments Croker returned and
stated that neither the bailiff nor Prose-
cutting Attorney Mott would accept the
money, but that the latter official had ad-
vised him to pay the money to one Martin
j. Quinlan, a police court attorney. This
he did, and Quinlan accepted it.
Larsen told the story of being released
and followed to his hotel on Oregon street
by Dick" the messenger-boy, and there
paying him SIS. The other sailor had gone
to sea and, of course, did not appear.
When Croker was called he was quite
confused and his testimony was so conflict
ing that it completely exonerated Baiiiff
Mcnamara, and the commission dismissed
the charge against the accused.

DISTRIBUTING STATIONERY.
A Busy Scene in One Part of the Regis
trar's Office.

Busy scene IN One fart OF the Regis-
trar's Office.
The stationery department of the Regis
trar's Office was truly an interesting sight
yesterday-indeed, has been for several days
past. Every precinct, of course, has to be
supplied with certain writing material,
blanks, etc, necessary to carry on regstra-
ton, and it was the distribution of these
among the $40 precincts that made the de-
partment the curious sight it was.
For convenience the required number of
pastebOard boxes, about double the size of
large envelope-bOx, were procured, and to
two clerks was assigned the work of filling
them with the necessary material. All day
yesterday these boxes and a banner bearing
the legend Sc Registration here" were being
distributed to the $40 polling-places about
the city. Each box contained forty-two
separate articles. and the work it took to as
sort and distribute them can hardly be ap-
preciated by those who did not see it in
progress.
Yesterday afternoon the Registrar was
busy assigning clerks to many districts
about the city, who Will have to visit all the
polling places in the city this morning to see
that all the precinct officers have reported
for duty and every thing is in readiness Tor
work. About fifteen men were assigned TO
the work, and all vacancies that they find
will have to be reported at once and filled by

men of this city who have retired in the

gathering to this end was held
at hall on Mission street, near Fifth, last
night, and a roll Opened for signatures Of
those interested in the movement. The OBJ
ject is to draft a metropolitan bill to be

its management in such way that it Will
be outside of "boss" influence.
As soon as a sufficient number of names
has been obtained a call will be issued for a

company with number of gentlemen, for
the adjournment of the meeting.
When asked their opinion upon the state
ment made by Buckley yesterday to friend
that he expected to be defeated this election,
but would drive every shorn lamb into his
flock when the Presidential campaign COM
mences two years from now, they replied
that Buckley's power would then be a

State would be controlled by the party and
not by the whim of an I'm principled char
