Chief Crowley Files His Annual Report
With the Supervisors.
The report of Chief of Police Crowley
for the fiscal year ending June 80 was filed
with the Board OF Supervisors yesterday.
1t shows that during the year 81 policemen
were added to the force of 3S4 There wers

charges. IL deaths, and 2 officers were re-
tired upon pensions. There were 2S. S.417 az
rests, Of which 2j42 were for drunkenness.
Fifteen hundred and nine persons were
lodged in the City Prison during the IL
months. Among the principal crimes for
which arrests were made were: Assault

Accompanying the report is a communI-
cation in which suggestions are made re-
garding matters where the Supervisors can
help the department out. Among other
recommendations Chief Crowley suggests
that an ordinance be passed prohibiting the
distribution of handbills and circulars on

also asks that fireworks in the city limits

Written for THh MORNING CALL.

An English general election is probably
a puzzle to many Americans. 1t does not
occur on one day. 1t is a process OF three
weeks; perhaps day or two more. 1t Is
also very uncertain process By law q
Parliament cannot last more thRn seven
years The septennial act decides that
point. But practically q Parliament may
die In month. a hostile vote against Min
istry gives the quietus. for no Ministry can
live without majoTity-a vital, eDergetie
maiority-in The House of Commons. The
House of Commons holds the purse strings
of the nation, and when that House stops
supplies there Is chaos In every depart
ment Of national service. Not only taxes
but their allotment must be voted TO keep
the heart of the nation in pulsation. and
the members of the corporate constitution
in vigorous health.
AS money dominates the situation the
House Of Lords is not q co-eaual branch Of
the Legislature. Ii has no right to tamper
with money bills, the budget or anything
else which has the ring of coin. Sometimes
il has interfered, but in this definite and
restricted matter right IL has none. If
the House of Lords does interfere it only
dares. Too much interference would result

A HORSE SEEKING GRACE.

Runaway at Salvation Army Head
qusrters-An ofticer's Bravery.
There was wild scurry on Market and
Third streets yesterday afternoon, shortly
before / o'clock. A horse attached to
light delivery wagon, while standing In
front OF q store on Sutter street, became
frightened and bolted along Kearny street
toward Market at a furious pace. Just
above Lotta's fountain an elderly lady. ac-
companied by little boy, was crossing the
street and would have been lun over by the
maddened animal but for the bravery of
Officer O'Shea. lie rushed to the help of
the woman and snatched her out of harms
across Market street and down Third. Here
a gentleman named Darby Martin saved a
little boy from being knocked down and
probably killed. and a hack owned by John
Lynch narrowly escaped being wrecked
The runaway turned sharply on Jessie

shoulder struck the heavy iron railing sur

banker is a much higher man In the social
scale than one who has made his money in
soap and tallow or shoddy clothing. A
brewer also is something in presentable hu-
manity very different from speculator in

the surest WAYS az being elevated to the
peerage is TO brew beer aud become rich.
Both Bass and AllsOp are peers. the one Ii

their beer is not at all eminent except in the
opinion of Britishers.
A general election In England Is deter
mined upon by the advice of the Ministry
in power. The crisis may arise through
hostile vote in the Commons. or it may
come through appreciation that the sand
glass OF Parliamentary life has worn out
and 1t is time 10 ask the opinion of the
country on policy. A dissolution being re-
solved upon, out go the writs on the very
day the Queens mandate OF dissolution is
announced. 1t would be possible to poll
the votes of electors in every constituency
on one day. but somehow this is not done.

than counties to make their nominations

u pOn receipt Of the writ TO the
Mayor three clear days are allowed for
nominations, and ii there be a contest two
days clesI are allowed to e!apse before
polling In the counties the nominations
may be made with an interval of nine days
after receipt of the writ, and the polling
six days afterward. Hence there is an ir-
regularity which makes an English general
election an affair OF weeks, and permits to
q certain extent Of gerrymandering. for the
successes on one side or the other are inter-
preted as omens of the final outcome, and,
to certain extept, this may be true.
In the English elections, municipal and
Parliamentary government are entirely
