Tojettis Pictures,

Yesterday Judge Trout confirmed the
sale for S915 80 of lot of pictures belong
ing to the estate of the artist, DomenicO
1oietti. The sale was confirmed a few
days ago without examination of the pa
pers, since which attention had been called
by the publication in the newspapers that
the enormous expenses of the sale were
SJS5, leaving only S326 so as the net out
come OF the SALE An investigation was
therefore had yesterday, and it was shown
that the sale was for more than the ap-
praised value Of tho pictures, but that to
make them salable hall had to be rented
and frames fitted TO them. The largest
picture, "Ophelia," had, moreover. been re-
served for private sale, aud it is expected
that more than $1,000 will he realized for it,
In confirming the sale Judge Trout left the
matter OF allowing the expense account for
determination when the final account is pre-
sented

THE FULTON IRON WORKS.
Proposition to Have Them Located oil
the Shore at Baden.

A Proposition to Have Them Located on
the Shore at Baden.
1t is no secret that for some months past
Mr.. Spers Of the Fulton Iron Works has
been looking out for a more suitable loca-
ton than the present one on Howard. Ere
mont and Beale streets What he partlcu-
larry wants is site with shore frontage,
thereby saving the large outlay for haulage
and ecOnomiZing in other ways. The recent
disastrous fire in the works on May % ln-
tensihed this desire, and has rendered
change absolutely necessary.
Mr.. Splers had several sites in view and
some days ago made a proposition to the
South San Francisco Land and Improve
ment Company for the requirement OF
piece OF land with a water frontage near
their stockyardS and abattoiT ut Baden.
ms. proposition was sent on TO Chicago
and on Monday night last G. f. Swift, L.
W. Smith and c. II. Gardner. managing
stockholders Of the company, arrived from
the Lake City. On Tuesday morning they
went tO Baden and that ight at their rooms
in the Palace Hotel they had a conference
with Mr.. Spiers, who, it is understood, laid
before them his views in regard TO his
proposition.
The directors Of the company, owing to
press Of other business, were unable TO
consider Mr. SpieTs proposition yesterday,
but VIII do so at the first opportunity. In
transaction of this kind there are a large
number OF contin gencies, both small and
great TO be considered, and a decision may
not be arrived at for day or two yet.
IL the proposition is accepted II IS reason
able 10 suppose that the erection of such
widely known and extensive establishment
as the Fulton Iron Works at Baden would
give considerable impetus to the settle
ment OF the Stockyard COmpany's land.
About 300 men are employed at the iron
works, and as the business would naturally
progress under new ana more favorable
conditions. the number of employees would
correspondingly increase and IN themselves
form no small portion of the town.
In the East all the large factories, foun-
dries. etc, are built where transportation
facilities are OF the best and easiest kind.
Not only that. but the prOpTietOrs have in
variably been offered most liberal induce
ments by the towns or villages TO erect
their works so as 10 draw population and
enhance tue value Of real estate. BY such
liberal concessions these firms are able 10
outstrip in the race for business their less
fortunate competitors who have a large
slice OF their capital invested in the land on
which their works are built; have 10 pay in
creased rates for Insurance owing u the
necessarily crowded condition of the build
ings, ana have also to bear heavy outlay
each year for haulage
IL the StOckyards Company accept Mr.
Spiers' proposition he will, it is understood,
commence the erection of the buildings and
plant at once, all arrangements TO that end
being perfected.

A JUDICIAL GRIEVANCE.
Surprise and Indignation of the Judg,
of the Circuit Court Of AnnaaIs

Surprise and Indignation OF the Judges
of the Circuit Court Of Appeals.
The Offices recently fitted up for the ac-
commOdaton of the clerk and the marshal
Of the Circuit Court Of Appeals are the most
modern and elegant in the Appraisers
building, corner of Sansome and Washing
ton streets.
A special agent from the Treasury De-
partment was here last winter and author
lied the fitting mp and furnishing Of these
Offices on scale Of magnifcence that ex-
cited the envy of all the other Federal
officials occupying rooms, single or en- suite.
In the building. Besides being thus fitted
and furnished, the offices are very capacious
from cubic foot point OF view. Ia fact,
there are none so large occupied as Federal
Offices IN this city.
To their dismav and to the disturbance of
their judicial serenity Of temper the hon
orable Judges OF the Circuit Court Of Ap-
pealS found no courtroom provided for them
when they came 10 take their seats They
were slowed away in a little corner room on
the thrd floor, within which there Wgs
scarcely elbow room for a dozen LAWYERS
without cTOwding the eminent jurists off the
bench. When the court was first convened
and all the United States Districi Attor-
neys in the Ninth Judicial District came to
san Francisco to ascertain where their
fees were coming from for tTansacting busi-
ness III lIliS new court Iley crowded the
room uncOmfOrtaOly. The talleSt aTG1g
among them-Mat Allen Of Los Angeles =
was at loss TO know which end of him he
was 10 saw of when he tried TO assume an
erect POSTURE The air. too, was soon found
TO be bad. and the Judges complained in
severe yet dignified terms of the inadequate
accommodations.
Not unit! their eyes fell upon the superb
| arrangement made for the marshal and the
| clerk did they realize the full bitterness of
their situation. Often since have they talked
about this grievance and proposed meas
ures for its redress.
Finally an enviOus but happy thought
possessed one Of the members. 1t was to
induce the authorities to give them the
offices for courtroom, and to transfer the
clerk ana marshal TO the little corner where
they had TO sit in Judgment
Alter much cores pOndence with the
Treasury Department at Washington, it is
understood that orders have been issued TO
reconstruct the offices, so that they shall be
converted into the most elegant Federal
courtroom in San Francisco.

Their story as embalmed in teal verbiage
is OF the perils of navigation. The yelling
ton is valued at $3.50. 600. She was on a voy-
age from San Francisco to Tacoma. The
sea was high and the winds were unmerci-
ful. While the elements were thus at war
the Wellington drifted amidst the waves
with broken shaft and the angry waters
broke over her. At any moment her crew
were liable to be swept overheard. While
in this plight the steamship Marie went TO
her relief. A line was thrown to tile disa-
bled steamer. On account of the heavy
weather the Marie cast off the tow, abandon
ing the Wellington to her own resources.
Then tue San Pedro steamed 10 her rescue
and at the risk of their lives the seven sea-
men passed a hawser to the Wellington.
This broke. Another was passed which
held fast and the disabled stranger was
hnally towed to tile harbOr of ESuumalt,
