Contractors bonds.

City Attorney Bailey yesterday rendered
an opinion to the Board of Public Works
on the clause in the charter that bonds of
contractors for street improvements shall
be nominated in suHls of not less than $500.
All law, he said must be construed in ac-
cordance with reason. The intent of this
clause was plainly To apply to cases whore
the cost of the Improvement exceeded $500.
to prevent a miscellaneous lot of bonds of
small denominati0ns In cases where the
improvement was for less than $500 the
thing to do was to make one bond for as
near the cost Of the improvement as it was
posi- bic to estimate 1T.

UNDER A SHADOW.
Two Worthless Suspected of Com
pounding q Felony.

The charge made by Frank Queen, alias
Moore, the notorious piekpocket, that
Michael W. Coffey, a Police Court practi-
toner, embrzzled $3.50 intru5ted to him. has
resulted in the latter's detention, and also
that Of one Owen T. Kelly, on a charge of
comD0Uniing a felony.
1t viii be remembered that Queen was
arrested about two weeks ago when detected
in the act Of relieving Mrs. Owen T. Kelly
of her pncket-book during the progress of
the ST. Patrick's day ball at Woodward's
Gardens. The police have been endeavoI-
ing for long time to convict Queen, but he
is a willy thief, and has hitherto eyaded de-
lection.
The officers were rejoicing in the fact that
he was at last booked for San Queltin. but
TO the surprise Of all when the case was
called Mrs. Kelly, the complaining witness,
was not forthcoming. Although an attach
ment was issued for her she cOnld not be
found, and she evaded service of the writ.
Queen had retained Coffey to defend him,
but they quarreled. The pickpOcket stated
that he had sent COffey to his wife for $3.50,
which she delivered to him, but that he bet
and lost the whole amount on three aces in
a game of poker. Queen charged Coffey
with stealing the money, which the latter
promised to refund. The money is still IN
paid and COffey is threatened with arrest
for embeZZlement.
In order to be reyenged on his client for
this accusation COffey has said that the
former intended to use the $3.50 for the pur-
pose OF bTibng Mrs. Kelly to keep away
from the trial. but that for fear Of injurng
his precious professional reputation he did
not himself negotiate for her disappear
ance, the inducement to visit parts unknown
having come through the influence of q
clergyman Of whose flock Mrs, Queen is
member
The pickpocket declares that the attorney
did accompany his wife to the Kelly resi-
dence in the Mission, but not finding her at
home mentioned the nature of their bust
ness TO her husband and this statement was
corrobOrated by Owen T. Kelly in his testi-
mony to Judge Morley yesterday. Kelly
professed ignorance regarding his wife's
present location. but suggested that she
might possibly be at Stockton, where her
married sister resides, the wife Of Hence
man, the OaTSmau.
Detective Silvey stated that the Kelly
woman is not IN Stockton, but that it is
said she has gone East aud that she VIII not
return until July. The reported amount
paid to influence her flight is 500. Cotfey
asked the witness, Owen L. Kelly, several
questions regarding his part in the tTansac-
ton, which tended TO vindicate bin, but
Judge Morley held that the questions were
too leading, and ordered both Kelly aud
Cotfey into custody.
The former Will be detained as a witness
Coffey will be charged with bribing wit
ness. Both we're subsequently released on
bail, Coifey's bonds being fixed at $1,000 and
KrllV's at SI00

ACCUSED OF BURGLARY.
Charges Entered After a Find in
a Thieves ROOst.

Officers McGrath and Burnett who ar
rested William johnson, alias Flannery.
and John Hayes in clearinghouse at 207
Post street on Thursday night on suspicion
of burglary, placed additional charges
against them yesterday morning, booking
Johnson for burglary and having burglars
tools in his possession and Hayes for burg
larry.
They made further search of the room
yesterday morning and there found young

name of Minnie Williams. A great guam
tity of empty purses, pocket-books, jewelry,
silver spoons and couple Of small OPEN
faced ladies' watches were also taken from
the room and await Identification at the
Chief of Policies Office.
The woman who was booked for va
grancy, denied knowing that the men had
stolen the property, but said that they
came to her room on Thursday night and
left the various articles there. A silver
goblet found in the room has been identified
by DIR. eros rs having been stolen from his
residence ON the 23rd inst. and on this the
burglary charges were made. johnson,
when arrested, had number of skeleton
keys and files in his possession.

The NetC Depot

the old-tme route from North Beach, where
of risk would be effected, may be decided
on when the belt road is completed and adj
ditiOnal lines of cars are made to converge
at North Beach.
1t is generally conceded that the plans of
the Southern Pacific Company, which have
been adopted in the internal construction of
the new Market-street ferry-shedS will be
productive of great Inconvenience. The
original design of the Harbor Commissioners
was to have the wating-rooms for ladies'
and gentlemen each 36Xl9 feet, but the COM
pRny has divided one of these into two por-
tons aud placed ticket office with several
compartments in the space thus encroached
on. 1t will be matter of necessity at a
very early date to remove the ticket office to
the outside The advertising space inside
and outside the shed has been rented out
woithout competition at the nominal figure
of $500 month; it is easily worth double
that amount
The price TO be paid by the Harbor Com
missioners for the new shed is $4,000. The
clock and tower on the old shed belongs to
the Southern Pacific Company. The rest of
the lumber will become the property of the
contractors of Section of the sea-wall. the
construction of which will be proceeded
with at once.
The new front will be dredged at this
roint to a depth of eighteen feet at low
water. The Oakland steamers draw only
eight feet. The Sacramento River boats
will be removed to La Rues Wharf, and the
freight boats for Oakland will occupy the
narr0w-gauge slip. The Mission-street cars
will be run alongside the Howard-street
tracks. The Union and Cliff House and

THE FERRY-SLIPS.
Preparations for Transferring

The Cliff House and Ferries Track viii Not
Be Disturbed Operations to Be Com
pletsd in Two Weeks.

Whatever interest the present Market
street ferry-slps and the unsightly sheds
covering them may be said to possess for the
conservative citizen and the archeologist,
there is no question about the chorus of re-
joicings which will go up in about two
weeks time, when the cable-car tracks will
be entirely diverted TO the new front, the
old rat-trap shed, with its campanile tower
and clock, will be leveled, and the extensive
evil-smelling sewage deposits formed be-
meath the slips by the destruction Of the old
Market-Street sewer will be dredged out
and removed.
1t will be no longer necessary for east
bound passengers to take leave of San Fran
cisco with their fiagerS clasping their
nostrils, or for those who have been out for
day in the country to return to their
homes with visions of diphtheria, typhoid
and malarial fever haunting them as they
walk down the gang-plank or pass through
the lines of hotel-runners and hackmen,
who must surely bear charmed life to
have survived the mephitic eXhalations so
long.
There are few scraps of history attached
to the structure now doomed to destruction
at so early date. The railroad across the
continent was COMPLETED in 1862 when Gen.
eral Grant drove the last spike, in the Terri
tory Of Utah. The first train came in the

FREE OF DUTY.
The Tariff on Sugar to Be Removed in
Three Days.

The Tariff on Sugar to Be Removed in
Three Days.
After the beginning of next month all the
raw sugar imported into this country will
be admitted practically free of duty. All
the sugar in bonded warehouses on April 1st
will also be free, and all dutiable sugar re-
fined during the present month and placed
in bonded warehouses to remain there until
the LIST prox. will be entitled to rebate OF
duty, so that at the end of three more days
we will consume free sugar in our tea and
coffee.
Consumers anticipate an average reduc-
ton of cents per pound on all sugar to be
purchased hereafter, the expectation being
that they will receive the entire benefit OF
the removal of duty, and it is to be hoped
that they will not be disappointed.
The admission of free sugar into the port
of Philadelphia alone will decrease the an
nual customs receipts 100000. and the
removal of the duty will not lessen the
number of officials, whose salaries will con-
tinue as heretofore. The Government re-
linquishes S40,C00,000 year under the new
law, which will prove a great relief to the
people. provided they are not obliged to
make good the deficiency by some other
form OF taxation.

night after by way of Sacramento. The
old ferry-slips used in connection with this
route were at the foot of Pacific street.
They consisted of two slips, with old rat
trap sheds, beside which the present struc-
ture might well seem palatiai. This state
of things was tolerated until 1875, when the
foot of Market street was selected as the
site of new quarters, partly as the outcome
of the NJ arket-street boom, partly because
of the cas- Ter and more direct access to Oak
land and Alameda.

way, and In many instances old sheds from
other whar yes of the city front were moved
to the spot and pressed into service en-
economical grounds. The result fingers to
speak for itself.
+ The first cable-car road to make connec-
ton with the ferry-sllpS was the Market
street line, which reached the front in 1882.
Various lines have been added since then,
the last being the Cliff House and Ferries
track, which was put in three years ago.
The H0ward-street cars did not make COM
munications with the present front, but
came in on the south side, opposite the new
quarters.
