MRS. TAPIA'S CLAIM.
She Wants Pay for Nursing tho Olsen
Family.

She Wants Pay for Nursing the Olsen
Family.
In Justice Austin's court yesterday a
curious civil case was on trial from 8 80
a. m. until $3.50 p. m. Mrs. Antolina
Tapia had sued Mr.. and Mrs. Hans
Olsen for $3.50. which plaintiff claimed
was due her for nurses fees. Olsen has
been known for some time as the crank
who blew tin horns in the still hours of
the night on Sotello street, with vigor
which aroused innocent slumberers from
their sleep. He has been in trouble
several times through this popularity.
Sometime ago Mrs. Olsen was run over
by cable car. The company was sued
for damages. and the Olsens awarded q
judgment of $2500, which was paid.
Pending the recovery of Mrs. Olsen, Mrs.
Antolina Tapia was engaged to look after
things at the Olsen house. This is
where the present suit hinges. Mrs.
Tapia claims that she was only hired to
do the washing at Olsen's and that she
was given the use of three rooms in
payment. The Olsens, on the other
hand, allege that the rooms we're given
Mrs. Tapia on condition that she would
take care OF the Olsens in every way.
The plaintiff asks for the $3.50 for wash
ing, meals furnished and nursing both
Mr.. and Mrs. Olsen. The latter was
confined for seventy days, while Olsen
was himself in bed nine days. The
cause of his illness, according to one
witness, was that he had 'gorged him
self with green fruit"
The Solomonic court took the matter
under advisement and will render de-
cision anon.

TERMINAL GRIEVANCES.
The members of the general grievance
committee of the order of Railroad
Trainmen are holding three meetings
day at Academy hall, on Mission street,
says the San Francisco Call, where a
new wage schedule which the Southern
Pacific will be asked to adopt is being
formulated. The grievances far out
number those of any previous COM
plant, but the chairman of the COM
mittee will not make the full list known
| at present. 1t is given out, however,
that the company will be asked to run
larger crews in the local freight and
passenger service. The law expressly
provides for a specified number of
brakemen for freight and passenger
trains. 1t says that train OF over hve
cars shall carry two brakemen. The
Southern Pacific is running heavy pas
senger trains in many of its divisions
with one brakeman, and recently train
OF thirty-eight cars was sent over the
coast division without brakeman at
all. Of course the automatic brake is
used on all these trains, but this in
genious labor-saving devicesfrequently
gets out of order and the question nat
urally suggests itself. what would have
become of the thirty-eight-car special
above mentioned if the air had given
out on one of the steep grades SO fre-
quently encountered on the coast dlvis-
ion?
On freight as well as passenger trains
there is tendency on the part OF the
company to make two men do the work
formerly performed by three and four,
and at the some time to evade the law
which applies to both branches OF the
service. 1t is against the statutes OF
California to run a freight train with
less than three brakemen, yet the COM
pany persists in handling its local
freight trains with two men, and On
many of the runs only one is employed.
The officials say that it is not neces-
sary to send more than one man on
trains equipped with air brakes, giving
as reason that there is no work to per-
form. The trainers of the law requiring
full crews, however. thought differently,
taking cognizance of the fact that the
automatic brake is very delicate piece
OF mechanism, often giving out at the
time when most needed.

that Austria is making trouble for itself in
the near future by limiting the specie basis
to coin Of one metal will not probably
change the avowed purpose Of her states
men. The Austrian veTeins-thalGrs will be
withdrawn from circulation and converted
into bullion through the process of the
melting-pot. The action of the German
Congress should receive careful cOnSidera-
tion from the American Congress. The fact
that 500, 900, 600 OF German silver is await
ing a market adds to the gravity of the
proposition to open American minis to the
free coinage Of silver Under our present
silver policy our silver purchases are linz
tied 10 100000 ounces a month. Under
free-cOinage policy the minis would coin all
the silver that might be offered, and the
4l2h-grain silver dollar would be legal
tender. The idea is held out that the free
coinage of silver will cause q speedy appre-
citation in the commercial value Of that
metal. With such stores of silver waiting
for a market it is more likely that silver
will continue to depreciate in value. Pre-
ciSey how much we should have to coin to
absorb all the European surplus cannot be
accurately known. The Government OF the
United States would be playing the role Of
daring Spectator. If it should succeed in
purchasing all the silver offered and thus
obtain exclusive control of that metal it
might realize hundreds Of millions by the

MILLS AND SPRINGER.

Political gossip in Washington is occu-
pied to an extent in specializing upon the
outcome Of an effort on the part of Mills Of
Texas to substitute a general bin revising
the tariff for the plan Of the WAYS and
Means Committee to attack the Mckinley
tariff in detail. Mr.. Mills, it is said, has
revised his old bill in some respects with
view 10 the present conditions Of the Treas
ury, ard will try to get a vote Of the House
on tie TWO plans. The Mills plan partakes,
j. its method Of dealing with public Ques-
tAns, Of tie general policy of Cleveland to
do What he cOuceiVes to be right and let the
country accept or reject, as may be. The
Springer plan, on the other hand. is re-
fecti0n Of HIS crafty mind. Being appre-
hensiye Of the result Of a straight contest
between the protective policy and revenue
tariff, he recommends course which will
meet with some support from advocates Of
a protective policy. Cleveland is by lar

SPIRIT VERSUS FLESH.

When men and women Of ordinary or
even a little more than ordinary BRAIN
power get off the track OF ordinary intel
lectual endeav0r and attempt to penetrate
the mysteries of spiritual life that present
themselves 10 human minds, they seem 10
develop a tendency TO bid gOod-by To COM
nonsense and take in its place 4 certain
intangible, high-souled responsibility as
their guide in the ordinary business OF life.
Possibly this is one explanation OF why
spiri,Balism and SpiTtualistic teachings are
so often more or less internIingled with
teachings and practices Of n nature that the
average mind is apt to attribute TO other
than spiritual sources. Just what affinity
exists between spiritual research and heshly
license is hard Tor the ordinary mind to de-
termine, but judging from statements which
from time 10 time are made regarding the
workings Of SpirituaIistic communities it
is evident that many persons believe in
some such affinity.
The most recent revelation Of this sort
is that of Miss y A. Cheyaiilier, New
! ork lady, who came to California some
time ago to take up her residence in the
colony near Santa Rosa OF which the nOtO-
rj0us Thomas Lake Harris is the head.
Miss CheYallieT claims that she had not
long watched the workings of the colony
before she realized that instead of its being
q center of pure and tTansCcndent endeaYOr
and a gathering Of lofty spirits for mutual
improvement and the investigation Of
es0teric truths. lis spirituality is If a very
freshly type and the mode of life within its
borders pre-eminently Of the earth earthly.
In fact, she was both shocked and dis
gusled at what she saw, and sadly disillu-
si0niZed regarding the soulful circle.
She has since devoted herse4f to calling
the attention Of the people to the colony in
aneifort to have it broken M, She has per-
sonauy visited certain of the heads of Gov
eminent and has also furnished them with
specimens Of the literature which Harris
has put in circulation. some of which is
claimed 10 be Of q nature 20 merit the Offices
OF Anthony Comst0ck in dsposiuG Of it.
The latest step in her campaign against the
concern has been an appeal to the Grand
Lodge Of Masons 10 investigate the charges
she brings against the colony OF immortality,
and if they are found true to expeI Harris
from the order, Of which lie is now men,

II Miss CEevailler's charges are true. the
seriousness Of their nature would warrant

He Is Accused Of Grand Larceny

Colonel Joe" by the followers OF the de-

was arrested yesterday on charge OF grand
larceny, but at once secured his release on
bond In the sum of $1,000.
The charge was made by Thomas F. How
ard Of 513 Vallejo street, who alleges that
he was led to believe early in 1890 that
Cochran had big political influence and
could procure for him a municipal govern
ment position. lie desired a place in the
Police Department and was informed that
Cochran was the man TO see.
Howard says he saw Cochran and paid
him $3.50 cash 10 secure the appointment
The money was paid on May %. 1890, and
Howard has waited long in vain for the
coveted star. Failing to have his money re-
turned or to receive any satisfaction, How
ard said he was compelled to swear to the
complaint for the "cOlonePs" arrest.
When interviewed in reference to the
matter Cochran denied each and every allie
CATION in Towards complaint. He said he
had never promised to procure Howard a
place in the Police Department or any other
department. If he ever owed Howard a
dollar he is certain that the debt has been

A VICTIM or BLACKMAIL.

The statement is now made that Mrs
Osborne, the English lady who has been
made a heroine by the devotion Of her hus-
band, was almost forced into the crimes Of
theft and perjury by gang Of blackmailers.
Whether the gang had facts to 20 upon or
were playing upon weak wOman's dread
Of a shameful accusation is not stated. IL is
known that Mrs. Osborne inherited the
sum Of $50 0e0, and that two or three years
later she was in desperate straits for money.
Under constant threats Of exposure, she
began pilfering in small way, aud handed
over the greater portion Of the results to the
scoundreis who had her in their clutches.
The redeeming feature in the case IS the
foTtitude and devotion OF Captain Osborne
both before and after he became convinced
Of her guilt. He took her word for her
innocence, and married her that he might
have q husbands right to protect her from
accusations which he then supposed were
false When she was forced to admit her
guilt he alone remained her friend, re-
signing his commission in the army to be
free to do as he pleased. Perhaps his de-
votion was mistaken, but il was none the
less courageous. Without doubt his subse-
quent knowledge that the poor woman had
been almost forced into crime by threats of
blackmsilers was the real inspiration of his
sympathy.

GERMAN SILVER.

One OF the unknown factors Of the silver
problem has been the amount Of silver Ger
many would throw upon the market should
the United States open its minis to the free
coinage of that metal. 1t is well known
that the sales of silver by Germany soon
after the nc0-GeTman war contributed
largely to the depreciation in the CONNER
cial value of the white metal at that time.
1t has been thought, however, that Ger
many had disposed OF the greater part of
the surplus caused by the decentralization
Of silver at the time OF receiving a thou
sand millions in gold from France. The
bill which recently passed its third reading
in the German Reichstag fairly places Ger
many in the market as seller OF silver.
The proposition is TO retire tae Austrian
vereiEs-thaiers-a silver coin equivalent to
about % cents OF American mOuey-of
which not less than 400, coo, 600 are supposed
to be in circulation. II this proposition is
carried out, about 500, 100000 Of Austrian
silver will be thrown upon the market.

NOW II WORKS.

The New York EJening Post says:
"There has been extraordinary delay on
The part Of the pUotectionists in identifying
and locating the hundreds Of new indus
tries brought into existence by the Nc
Kinley tariff and in reporting cases where it
has caused a rise in wages"
If the Post does not discover the names of
The new industries brought into existence
by the Mckinley tariff by reading the
report on the foreign commerce Of the coun-
try for the last six months it will at least
find evidence that such Industries exist In
the face or largely increased imports in the
aggregate, the imports Of wooden goods have
fallen of something more than $40. 000,0 CO.,
As the country is using more Of sucn goods
than ever before. the conclusion is justified
that the goods we do not import are made at
home. In respect TO an increase of wages,
the contention was not that the Mckinley
tariff would raise wages, but would prevent
wages from being reduced. 1t was urged
that With the same ratio of wages we
would do much work which had been
done abroad. And despite the failure of
the Post to perceive its results, the country
has abundant evidence that they exist.

oBJECTIONABLE IMmIGRANrs.

A Sacramento newspaper contemporary
heads an editorial article with the following
words: " Shipping COnvicts u the United
States" The same paper further says:
d" There is a systematic landing upon our
shores Of c0nvicuS from Great Britain, and
there is positive proof that from England,
Ireland and Scotland in the last eleven
years, there has been a systematiZed, wide
spread and thoroughly organized movement,

NEW YoRK's LIBERALITY.

The Trustees Of the New York Metro
pOhtan Museum of Art have made their first
annual report since that institution was
thrown open on Sundays. The report shows
a deficit in the treasury of $3.50 81 The
opening Of the museum on Sunday Is de-
clared success from the point of view Of
the number Of visitors, which has steadily
increased. but the report says:
While the sunday opening meets with pOpu-
lar approval, the step remains only an expert
ment. It has put burdens on The finances Of The
museum which they are unable TO bear II has
offended some OF the museums best friends and
supporters. 1t las aiienaied some who have
Civ. freely OF their Tine and means 10 tie lnstl-
tuition. IL has resulted in The loss Of beQuest Of
$4,000. Il Is hoped that this direct and
calcuable loss VIII be offset by greater public
interest and more generous support, bur AT
present The museum finds lis burdens increased
and IFS revenues no larger lhan before Thirty
thousand persons uettloned for Tie Sunday
opening, and yet ihe number Of paying members
has decreased since May 81 By 225.
The Trustees express great reluctance to
take a backward STEP but it is apparent
that unless the friends Of the museum who
desire Il, TO be literally managed come to It's
rescue such q step must be taken. The
Sunday patrons of the museum are from
among the working classes, who are de-
barred by their toll from visiting it on any
other day. While they doubtless find great
ENJOYMENT in visiting the institution, they
are in no position to help it financially.
Whether the great and wealthy city of
New Iork viii see her way clear to pro-
vide means 10 maintain the museum open
on Sunday remains TO be seen. Possibly
no city on the continent save San Fran
cisco, is as habiJually pOor-m0uthed " as
