county central club. In this way an effort Will
be made to secure compact organization of
the party throughout the state.
There was q good attendance last night most
OF those present of course being from the city,
though few from the country dropped In.
Percy w. Rochester was chosen temporary chair
man and John 7. Blackstone Temporary secre-
tary. George Hazz ri, the secretary of the
Democratic state central committee. who is the
guiding spirit in the work, made brief speech,
explaining that the aim was to form a club
which should have open headquarters the year

ganization was appointed, consisting of Percy
W. Rochester, J. M. Carson, C. W. Turner, NJ.
Phillips, George Beck, Lee Hart and Joseph

MINER LEGG's CHILDREN.
The Three Little Waits Claimed by

miner who claimed that his house was riddled
with bullets by the strikers some time ago be-
cause he returned 10 work in the mines, came in

uren at the Globe hotel, regarding whom an item
appeared ia yesterdays observation-disclosures
Al the time of the trouble between her hus-
band and the strikers, Mrs. Legg, as a conse-
quenee, became temporarily insane, aud was
sent 10 the insane asylum at Steilacoom. Her
'hree children were taken by Ben Legg, OF Ma
pie valley, brother of Robert, to be cared for
while she was in the asylum Mrs. Legg was
discharged from the asylum the latter part of
Ast week, and on her return home she and her
husband arranged to take . team sunday and

WATER FOR STEAMERS.
Masters Complaining of the Present
System-A Suggestion Made.

Masters Complaining of the Present
system-A Suggestion Made.
Captain Nibbe. of the steamer San Juan, yes
terday registered another protest against the
system OF supplying water to boats in this port
Owing to the bursting of The Madison street
main the night before the water was shut off
from the Hattield-Colman wharf yesterday and
the San Juan could get no water, as she makes
her headquarters at this wharf. Captain Nibbe
tried to get water at Bakers wharf, but was re-
fused unless he would pay $3.50 for it. After
spending some time looking around for a place
where he could get water he found he would
not have time to make the morning trip, aud
had to lie over. In the afternoon he succeeded
in getting water at the Merchants wharf and
left on his evening trip all right.
w. Il. Wilson, of II. w. Baker & Co., explained
that the reason for refusing water to
the San Juan was because they had
made a rule some time ago not to
let any boat have water at their wharf as it was
great deal of annoyance to them. The rate of
$3.50 was fixed so as to make it practically pro-
hibltory, as no captain will pay tina: amount
except in case of an extreme emergency. Mr.
Wilson says they have been making nothing on
the water and are out the labor of taking care
OF 1t, and would not bother with it at all but for
the accommodation Of the boats landing at
their wharf
Several steanboatmen and wharfingers spoken
to in regard to the matter thought the best way
out OF the trouble constantly arising between
boats and wharf-owners over the water question
would be for the city to put in meter on its
own wharf at the foot of Spring street and place
1t in charge OF the harbor master. Then in case
the water Is shut off from any wharf the boats
landing there, and those having no regular
place of landing as well, could be supplied
with water without trouble at the city wharf at
ordinary rates

M'LEAN's CHATTEL MORTGAGE.
The Court Decides That 1t Was Given
to Defraud Creditors.

Judge Lichtenberg was occupied yesterday
afternoon with the trial OF a suit to determine
the priority OF different claims to set of furni.
ture that once adorned the Office of N. H Nc
Lean, the timber land locator. The latter, who
was involved In numerous legal actions of
various kinds, gave chattel mortgage for $500
on his furniture to T. N. Mcnamara, the attor-
ney who was looking after his interests in the
courts. McSsmara transferred the mortgages
70 A. n. Roberts, furniture dealer, from whom
itpassed to H. Mcclure, the plaintiff In the
action. MCGUIRE brought suit to forec.ose the
mortgage, and V. Nassa and George f. Frye,
who secured an attachment on the furniture
after the mortgage was given, were made par
ties defendant to the suit
By way OF maintaining the priority of their
claim Asssa and Frye set up that the mortgage
was given by Mclean with the intent to de.
fraud his creditors. MCGUIRE maintained that
the mortgage was perfectly valid since il
was in the hands of an innocent purchaser.
Judge Lichtenberg decided that Massa's and
Fryes claim, which amounted to 500, should
frst be paid out of the proceeds OF the sale OF
the furniture, and that If there was anything
