Sherman, late General of the Armies Of the
United States: therefore be it
Resolved. That by the death Of our com
rade our country has lost a citizen whose
achievements and character will shed lustre
on her history until the end of time. Pos
scssed of military genius Of very high order,
he was able to render his government III ITS
hour of need eminent services. the benefits of
which are shared 10y every citizen of our com
mon country. The impartial verdict of his
tory has already placed his name high on the
list of the great military leaders, not only of
America, but of the world. Patriotic and
brave as "a soldier. loyal and public spirited
as a citizen. steadfast as n friend, genial and
courteous as a cOmrade we mourn his loss as
irTeparable. As a member of the Grand
Army of the Republic he endeared himself
to every comrade by his interest in all that
pertained TO the welfare of the order Our
camp fires will never again be cheered by his
bodily presence, but we pledge ourselves to
emulate his virtues and hold up his example
as one worthy TO be followed by every com
rade
Resolved, That these resolutions be spread

to every patriotic and liberty flowing citizen of
tins country which he loved and served 50
faithfully for over half a century.

suffers az irreparable loss. Rising from rank
10 rank he proved himself equal TO every oc-
casiOn, developing higher and greater powers,
always exhibiting unquailing courage and
cOnsummate judgment IN the performance Of
some of the most brilliant achievements
known in naval warfare. In the death of
Comrade Porter there comes TO US the sadness
of knowing that one by one our great leaders
are dropping out from the list Of the living,

THE ELECTRIC PBRSIMMON.
It Falls Into the Basket of the P
Street People.
Franchise Granted the Electric Com
pany to Runs Railways on Third,
P, and Tenth Streets.

The Electric Railway franchise was
taken up by the City Trustees yesterday,
and the clerk read an abandonment filed
by Mr.. Henry of the Central Electric
Railway Company. BY it's provisions Mr..
Henry abandoned the O-street road, the
one on Third street, and the Highland
Park road
Mr.. Henry stated that he had asked for
q franchise on Tenth street, from O to P.
and he supposed this would do away
with all the protests of the uptown peo-
pie. They could either come across
Tenth street or go down to Third, as they
chose.
Trustee ConlIlin asked the clerk to read
an amendment which he desired adopted.
1t was to the effect that the company
would be required to pay back any bonus
that might have been received. in case
any of the roads should be abandoned.
n communication was received from
RoSenbaum d SCherline, attorneys for
the German Savings and Loan Society Of
san FRANCISCO, notifying the board that
the bank owned bonds Of the Sacramento
Railway and Improvement Company
lthe Carey lines), in the sum OF 800, 600,
secured by deed of trust on all the fran
chlses, rolling stock, etc, of the COM
pany. The abandonment OF any of the
franchises would work great injustice
10 the bank, especially as it bought the
property subject TO the Indebtedness.
In conclusion, the attorneys notified
the board that il any attempt was made
10 remove any of the property, or sur
render any of the franchises covered by
the trust deed, they would enioin the
! board and take such remedies against all
concerned as law and equity affords.
Al the suggestion of Trustee McLaugh-
lin, no attention was paid to the COM
mun!cation. lie said he did not see how
it could affect the board
The Clerk then read the proposed fran
chise for an electric road on Third street
from Is to Z, thence along p easterly to
/ Twenty-eight also, on Tenth street
from O to p. The amendment Of Mr.
ConklIn was also read again.
Mayor Comstock said he did not think
he ought to vote for a franchise on Z
street He had promised P-street people
that II o street was not equipped with an
! electric road, he would vote to give Mr..
| Henry a franchise on Z street But at
| the same time, ii there was any chance of
getting road on 0 street, he was in favor
Of that street. He did not like to see the
/ track on that street torn up. Again, Mr..
henry had not told the board definitely
what roads he was going to operate.
Trustee Mclaughlin moved that the
franchise lie granted, and Trustee Conk-
lin seconded the motion. The roll was
called, and the Second and Third Trus-
tees voted aye. Mayor Comstock voted
no,

HUMANE SOCIETY.
Z" Speaking for Those Who Canno

. Speaking for Those Who Cannot
Speak for Themselves
At Y. NJ. 1. upper Hall, on Seventh
street, this evening, at half-past seven,
there will be meeting of citizens to con-
slider the proposition to organize a HUI
name Society here.
Nathaniel Hunter, Secretary of the San
Francisco Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty TO Animals, was written to and
asked if he would be present tonight and
point out why the society was organized
In san Francisco and what it has ac-
complished IN the twenty-three years of
It's existence. y Yesterday IL. j. Craft re-
celved letter from Mr.. Hunter, stating
that he would be present and gladly re-
spond to any questions upon which he is
informed.
II is to be hoped that there viii be a
very large attendance and that those in
tending TO be present viii come promptly
at 7:30. In that case the meeting will not
necessarily be late.
The formation of such societies is
simple and inexpensive, and the or
CARNATIONS are everywhere OF great bene-
lit to the communities. Sacramento is
the only city OF considerable importance
where such fan organization in some
form does not exist.
Some idea OF the work of the society in
San Francisco may be gained from this
synopsis of its annual report for the
society year lS90-9l: Number of cases re-
ported, 93I; Investigated, 937; prosecuted

FREDIANI GIVES UP.
His Motion for an Appeal Dismissed
His REQUEST

His Motion for an Appeal Dismissed at
His Request.
Eduardo Frediani, the aged Italian
who stabbed Giuseppe Scatini to death,
and who'was recently convicted of man
slaughter, has decided to go to prison
without further legal resistance.
Frediani's counsel, Grove L. johnson,
appeared before Judge Catlin yesterday
and moved to dismiss the appeal in his
clients case.
After Fredianrs conviction motions for
arrest of judgment and for a new trial
were both denied, and the prisoner was
sentenced. Then the notice Of appeal was
given-the last chance the old knife
wielder had.
In making the motion to dismiss the
appeal, counsel said that he did so in ac-
cordance with the desires and instruc-
tions Of Frediani and his relatives. The
latter believed that the old mans mind
would fail him entirely unless the case
was finally disposed of soon. They be-
lieved it would be best for him to go to
prison, where he will have rest and quiet
knowing that the matter is at an end.
Judge Catlin granted the motion. Fre-
diani will be taken to San Quentin this
morning by Deputy Sheriff Fay. He has
six years to serve.

Henry Wolford Finds Out That it Does
Not Pay.
A young man named Henry Wolford
was found guilty of disturbing the peace
of Lula Cullingford, shopgirl, in the
Police Court yesterday.
1t appeared from the testimony that
Wolford, on last Friday evening, stopped
the young lady on her way home, and
after accusing her Of annoying his rela-
tives by ringing their door bells, abused
her roundly. He used vile epithetS,
and declared that if she were only man
he would "lick her."
The young lady upon taking the wit
ness stand denied that she had annoyed
anybody, and SAID that Wolford's abuse
was entirely without provocadon.
Judge Cravens found Wolford guilty,
iectured him severely and ordered him to
appear for. sentence to-day.

PURSUED BY COWBOYsi
William McKelvey Arrives Here in a.
Insane Condition.

w 1l1lttih hChSlNGy Arrives mere IN an
Insane Condition.
When last evenings overland train ar
rived there was an insane man, named
William McKelvey, among the passen-
gers. He was given in charge of Special
Officer Ben True, who took him to the
Police Station, and afterward to the
County Jail.
1t appears that the unfortunate man
boarded the Union Pacific train at Raw
Inns, Wyoming Territory, having a
through ticket to Stockton. 1t was soon
discovered that the man was out of his
mind. He was labOring under the hal
lucination that cowboys were after him to
do him harm.
McKelyey did many strange things,
such as throwing money out of the car
window, apparently to appease the enc
mics whom he supposed to be pursuing
him. lie was not very violent when he
reached here last evening, and readily
answered questions put to him. He was,
however, still possessed of the idea that
the cowboys We're after him.
McKelYey has a brother in Stockton,
who will doubtless come here, as soon as
he learns where the former is, and look
after him.

IN TROUBLE ALREADY.
The New Garments Brotherhood Con-
demned by the Federation,
Objection to Drawing the Color Line,
and Insurance Scheming-Ihe
Northern Miners.

The Council of Federated Trades met
last evening at Federation Hall, with
President Hantzman in the chair
The principal subject of discussion was
the recent formation of a Brotherhood of
Railway Carmen. AS predicted in yes
terday's RECoRD-UNIoN this new
organization does not hitch with
the Federated Trades, and the re-
suit Of last nights discussion was
that committee was appointed to
draft resolution notifying the laborers
Of Sacramento that the new brother
hoods principles are contrary to the
laws of the American Federation, as well
as those of the United States, namely that
it draws the color line; and, further, that
the alleged brotherhood, while represent
ing itself through its imported projectors
to be a labor organization, is simply
an insurance scheme; and further
calling upon the laborers Of Sac
ramento to be wary of the new
order and not affiliate with it. as there are
plenty OF organizations here already.
The committee was instructed to give the
resolution in full to the press immedi-
ately. The RECORD UNION, however,
did not receive a copy last evening, and
is, therefore, unable to give any more
than the above synopsis.
The Tug-Of-War Committee asked for
further time to report, and was given
until Saturday evening, when a special
meeting will be held to hear the report.
The Hall Committee reported progress
and was given further time.
a communication was received from
the Western Central Labor Union of
Seattle, asking all labor unions to support
the miners strike there.
Reports were received from Samuel
! Gompers, President of the recent Fedora
ton Convention at Birmingham, and
also from the Secretary and Treasurer of
the convention.
The boilermakers held meeting in one
of the smaller halls, but there was q

Trustees and ask them to defray the

the discharge of their duties. He said
they first needed room in which to
meet, and thought the hall in the base
ment OF the SeVenth-street NJ i. Church
was the most suitable place. 1t could be
procured for 81 per night. Then the
board needed some stationery, and a
clerk, who would no doubt want some
compensation for his work.
On motion of Trustee Mclaughlin, the
FreehOlders we're empowered to incur
