DOLLIB STONE AGAIN
uarney's Denial of Her Statement
Warrant Ont for. Him

uarney's Denial of Her Statement-A
Warrant Out for Him.
In reference to the case of Dollie Stone.
the girl who lately ran away from her
home here, and who charges that George
Harvey induced her to become an in
mate of disreputable house in San
Francisco, the latter makes general de-
NAL Of the girls statement.
He says he knew the girl. bat had
nothing TO do with her entering any such
place.
DoLLIE'S FIRST STATEMENT.
The San Francisco papers of yesterday
say that when the girl was arrested she
was i'll Harney's company.
The girl denied that Harvey had any-
thing to do with her, save to advise her
to leave her present mode OF life and re-
turn to her home. Under the circum-
stances Policeman Anthony was not able
to swear to a complaint charging him
with vagrancy.
Chief Crowley investigated the case and
believes that the officer acted perfectly
right. Prosecuting Attorney Nicholson
is of the opinion that Judge Rix should
either have ordered Harvey into custody.
or else detained him until the case had
been investigated.
Il *.
In speaking of the case Chief Crowley
said that he believed the girl was receiv-
ing more sympathy than she deserved.
Instead of her being II years of age he
showed the following telegram, proving
that she is Of age:
SACRAMENTO, March 23d.
2. Crologey. C7sfef Of Police, san FTanetxco.
Stone, the girls father says that size is of ace
and that lie cannot manage her. Do as you
like with her. DREW, CHIEF OF Police
WARRANT ISSUED FOR HARVEY.
AS SO much publicity has been given
to the case Chief Crowley determined to
press the matter to an issue, and there
fore directed Anthony to see the girl
again. and TO try to induce her to swear
to a complaint against Harvey. The girl
agreed to do so, and yesterday she ap-
peared before Judge Rix and swore to n
complaint charging Harvey with vap-
rancy. Anthony then started out with a
warrant to arrest him.

THE SWIMMING BATHS,

ew Pumping and Heating Plant
Other Improvements ia Progress.
The Improvements that have been and
hers that are now being made by the
S winning Baths Association at their
property at Twenty first and o streets
are of a character to demonstrate the con-
fdence felt by the promoters of that en-
terprise in its success and permanency.
A new pumping plant has just been
added, with an increased capacity of 20. 600
gallons of heated water over the former
supply of 10000 gallons. The new in
rlsed well is III feet deep, and passes
through the same character of soil as that
encountered by the experimental wells
sunk III the vicinity of Oak Park To ali
appearances the well has tapped the same
abundant water supply that was struck
III the gravel section referred to.
eSterday test was made of the cana
city OF the well, in the presence OF some
OF the officials Of the association. and il
was found that 0,00O gallons OF pure. soft
water could be pumped per hour. The
test was very satisfactory to the directors
There will now be an ample supply of
water to permit Of the swimming tank
being emptied each night and relied for
the following day with fresh water of the
desirable temperature, as the capacity of
lhe new plant IS Such that the work OF re-
filling the tank with water of the proper
temperature can be done in about four
lours-less than one-half the time for
merly required.
The new improvements include the adj
q ton of large room containing one
a1ndred lockers, TO be used exclusively
1F boys, as is done at the Piedmont
2ths. This Will leave the eighty dress
sug-rooms for the use OF adults, and thus

loom down stairs for the use of the MEM

lieye the demand upon the dressing
looms contiguous TO the swimming tank.
These improvements will soon be COM
pieted, and the baths will be thrown open

MORE G0NSENSICAL RIJHORS
About Attempts TO Keep Rodgers Out
of His Office.
The Chief Of PoIice-EIect Has Filed
His Official Doild and WIZ Take
Once april 1st.

Chief of Police-olect John B. Rodgers
went to the Courthouse yesterday after
noon and filed his official bond with the
County Clerk. His sureties are j. a.
Kelly, r. w. Williams, Robert T. Burn
side, Bernard McVay, o. H. Wing, H. B.
West, j. \. Moore, }. W. Collier, l.. S.
Woolsey and \. j. Van Zandt-each of
whom qualities for $1,000, making $40, 600
in all.
The various rumors that have been
floating about ever since the election to
the effect that Warren +. Drew, the pres
ent Chief, whose term is about to expire,
will refuse to relinquish the Office to Mr..
Rodgers, now appear to have some
foundation. Drew admits that he will
refuse TO abdicate the office and that he
has employed counsel to assist him in
holding the fort.
The ground ofthe proposed contest is the
old one of Rodgers alleged non-citizen-
ship. The latter has been elected and has
GUY quaHhed' by being sworn in ana
ming his BOND. lie holds his certificate
OF election, also. Just what right Drew
VIII have 10 the office after his term ex-
pres, his successor having been duly
elected and qualified. ii is difficult to
see. Perhaps he labors under the de,u-
sion that his successor cannot be regarded
as having qualified until he Drew retires
from the ONCE.
There has been no point vet raised
against the legality of Rodgers citizen
snip that has not been met and overcome.
! livery attorney who has volunteered an
opinion on the subject has declared that
theIe IS no cloud on MIR. Rodgers citizen
snip. The latest comes from Assistant
Attorney-GeneraiL ayson, who yesterday
rendered this opinion:
John i. Rodgers citizenship is thoroughly
established by the action OF his father in
making declaration OF intention while Rodp-
ers was a minor. When Rodgers became Of
age he had the right of election as To whether
ne would DC Il clIlZCn or an alien. lie chose
the former by exercising the right OF citizen
snip and IN voting ever since.
! his IS decided by the supreme Court of the
United states IN the case OF Boyd VS.. the State
! OF Nebraska.
As to the matter of Chief Drew having
any lien on the Office after his term ex-
| pIres, the following opinion is given by a
well-known lawyer OF this city:
| If Rodgers does not qualify or claim the
Office Of Chief OF Police oil April l. 1892,
| there viii be q vacancy in the Office under
Section 996 OF the Political Code. People vs..
Taylor, 81 Cal. 62oD
Under section ID of the Police Department
Act OF 1872, the Board OF Trustees can. by

succeeding city election. When "A Chief OF Pc
lice can be elected 10 nj the uneXpired term
The clause OF the Police Act which reads
Until his successor is elected and qualified -
means that when any successor presents him
self he can take the Office. The appointee of
the Board Of trustees could be such a sue
cessor.

THE PASSENGER WAS DEAD.
He Had Sat for Honrs Waiting for the
Train-He WasIa Portland Man.


When the local train from Dover, on
the Boston & Maine, reached North Ber-
WICK last night, one of the passengers
left the cars and entered the station pre-
sumably to wait for the Pullman from
Boston, the train ON which he had come
from Dover not running beyond Berwick.
The passenger was seen to walk I'M
steadily to seat into which he sank and
apparently dropped to sleep. People
came and went during the evening but
nobody paid any attention to the figure
sitting quietly in the corner. At about
ten O'Clock the Pullman arrived and then
one OF the railroad men went to arouse
the waiting passenger. The man was
given shake but instead of waking to
take the train, fell forward in his chair
and the star tied railroad man discovered
that the passenger was dead. 1t is sup
posed he expired shortly after entering
the station. Upon later investigation the
man was found to be Frank Mariner
who resides at tho West End, and his
family were notified by Officer Heath.
1t was terrible shock to them. Mr..
Mariner has worked for the city, and
has brother whois letter carrier. He
leaves wife and children.
