HOWE'S TROUBLE.
The Disbarment Proceed
ings Go On Again.
The Prosecution Urges Howe's Exten-
sive Professional Advertising as
Point Against Him.

The disbarment proceedings against G.
W. Howe were continued yesterday morn
ing before Judges Slack, SeaweIl and San.
dersoE.
A demurrer has been interposed by
Howe. and it was argued at some length
by his counsel, Carroll Cook. who claimed
that his client had violated none of his
obligations as an attorney
Davis Louderback, counsel for the prose-
cutiOn, urged that many evils flowed from
the practice OF advertising, and also that the
practice Of bringing suit upon contingent
fees was productive OF suD0rnaton of per-
jury.
The court having overruled the demurrer
George A. NJ. 1ngrGham took the stand and
testified that he saw an elaborate advertise
ment OF HOwe'S legal company and, think
ing that he could Go no better, called upon
Howe ana asked him to bring a libel suit
against j. l.. Lyons & Son, who he claimed
had unjustly placed him on their "black
list as dead beat" Later he was pre-
vailed upon to part with $40 upon extrava-
CANT representation made to him that he
could not possibly lose more than SIS if he
lost, and the suit would cost him nothing If
he won. The other S25 was to be paid
merely as guaranty of good fNith."
Noah Flood and Nj. II. Herman testified
for the defense. They had been success
sively employed TO draft the papers in the
suit. Both had done good deal of work
for Howe at different times.
The defendant took the stand in his own
behalf and explained how Iugraham had
abandoned the suit and then wanted his
money back, which the witness refused to
give, on the ground that services had been
rendered which were fully worth the
amount retained.
The testimony managed TO stretch itself
out so as to cover the entire day, and after
IL was all in Mr.. Cook asked leave to file
authorities. He was given five days TO do so

breeches-buoy and end of hawser as near
the Imaginary waters edge possible and
in front of the crotch. He and his ma te
have also stretched the tackle from the
sand-anchor toward the wTeeking- pole.
All this Is done in about three minutes.
Communication being made with the
wrecKing-pOle the captain signals to the
man here to haul. Two men tend the left
and Tight parts OF the whip. separating
them distance Of fifty or more yards,
while two others haul the whip from the
reels as fast as needed.
The captain hauls the hawser from the
cart and lights II to the surf while the crew
man the weather part of the whip.
As soon as the hawser is made fast to the
wrecking-pOle the men haul In the slack
and raise the crotch. bringing the heels as
near together as necessary. The tackle Is
again manned and the hawser hauled taut.
AT the commands, Man lee-whip," Haul
of, the breeches-buoy is hauled off to the
wreck. At the commands, Man weath er-
whip, Haul ashore, the crew shift to the
weather part and haul ashore.
The captain and one man assist the res
cued persons out of the breeches- buoy when
they reach the shore.
AS in artillery practice each gunner has
his number aud special work TO do, SO in
the llfe-saying corps each man has his num-
Der and routine. When first taking their
positions at the beach cart the odd nun befs
are on the left and the even mum bers on the
right.
Throughout the exercise, when two num-
bers work in company, as in training the
gun, tending the whip or hauling the whip
from the reel, the same relative positions
ate maintained.

A MORNING AT FORT POINT.

Invited by Captain w. Q. Coulson. AS
sistant Inspector of the Twelfth District. to
witness an exhibition drill by ife-saving
crew, accompanied that gentleman to Fort
Point on Thursday morning. Somehow or
other l started out with an impression that
was to be favored with an opportunity to
tell the story of mad and exciting dash OF
intrepid seamen into the surf and of their
subsequent perilous achievements going
through the motions OF plucking drowning
men from the sea.
Before we returned the voices Of the rip
pling waters Of the Golden Gate were mur-
muring the first verse of an old song into
my ears, which the drill had seen had
doubtless recalled. The song begins:
Mother, may 90 ont to swim?
on, yes, my darling daughter;
Hang your clothes on a hickory limb,
Hut don't 60 the water.
What was actually shown was sea drill
on the dry land, and this was good enough
for educational purposes. though rather
tame as an exhibition. The whole affair
appeared to be tuned to the sluggish tenn
permanent of the Scandinavian crew und er
Captain Joseph HOdgson, and was by no
means as smart as the drill of the light bat
tery men then in progress on the Presidio
hard by, who are being trained TO destroy
not 10 save life.
1t seems that more reliance is placed on the
life lines than on the lifeboats, and as all

| the shore, shlpwrecked people may be
rescued without a life-seryice man even so
much as getting his feet wet. The larger
part OF the equipment and paraphernalia
at the station are solely for this land work.
1t is called beach apparatus. and includes
a besch-cart, small brass cannon. buoy
blocks, buoy brides, breeches-b buoy. sand
anchor, shovels, shot-lines, hawsers and
various other tackle. besides a full compile
ment of lamps and flags for signaling.
Seven robust men at the drag ropes Of the
little cart give an impression Of too great a
preDonderance of muscle over matter But
once the beach is reached there are duties
for each to perform. As the cart would
have to be abandoned in q climb over a
preciptOus hill 70 another point on the
shore, the load would also have 10 be borne
thither on the mems shoulders, each pack
Ing something. So there is no actual waste
of force. A less number of men would
impair the efficiency of the required service.
There is lively trot to the point of
action. For drill and instruction this point
is not less than segenty-five feet in front Of
a wreck-poe, on the drill ground behind the
station. The wTeck-pOle Is a spar with a
tree top and Stimulates the mast OF stranded
vessel
The object is to shoot line to this spar,
which in the absence of a shipwrecked &C.
cupant is climbed by one of the iife-saving
crew, who in hauling the shot line drags the
whip, an endless rope, which in turn pulls
the hawser after Ii, which connects the ship p
with shore aud serves as q lfe-escape line.
From tho first alarm TO the rescue there
are eight different commands to be obeyed.
They are:
Open boatroom doors-man the beach
cart"
Forward"
"Halt."
Action"
Man leP-whipE
HAUL off"
Man weather-whip."
Haul ashore"
A spirited movement follows the COM
mand Action" One man throws the buoy
of the cart. Three unload the shovels, pick
and sand-anchor, and two OF them plant the
latter in the narrow trench thrown up by
them. The captain and another man toss
out the gun and locate it a goats leap 10
the windward of the cart. While thus en-
gagged two men carry the shOt-line box 10
its position on a line with the muZZle OF the
gun three feet to windward, unless the
wind is directly on shore, when they place il
to the right. The captain loads the gun.
His partner provides the shot and wipes
and holds it, while another vets a fathom
of the shot-line and binds it into the shank
This man and the CAPTAINS partner train
the gun right or left, while the captain gives
the necessary elevation with a combination

and fires

ries gold watch which was presented to
him for his skill and gallantry on that occa-
sion.
There are two lfe-saving stations within
a snort distance OF each other south of the
Golden Gate. As there is Rouse equipped
with ifeboats half way between Fort Point
and the Cliff House, it would be proper to
say there are three such stations. Strange

gerous part of the adjacent coast Once
there was station at this mouth of the
Bolnas River, but since the estuary has
filled up that station has been abandoned.
The explanation given by the life-saving
otilclals for The failure to maintain a station
north of the heuds is that it is a rock
bound shore with no site for bOat-landing.
A beach apparatus, it was also explained,
would be useless. as q ship would 20 TO

would suggest to these gentlemen they
read the pathetic story of the wreck of the
British steamer Royal Charter, which went
ashore on the Welsh coast late in the fifties
CHARLES Dickens refers to it in his Notes
OF an Uneommercial Traveller" Perhaps
they would then change their point of view
IN regard to the fuulity OF planting some
lfe-saVlng material at some point on the
shore Of Marin County.
Another curious fact is that the lifebOats
at the Golden Gate station can be launched
only IN fair weather and during a smooth
sea. This is the reason, l was tod, for
establishing station inside the heads near
Fort Point, where in ali kinds of weather
the boats can be launched. The reason for
continuing the station at Golden Gate Park
IS the great value which IS attached to
beach apparatus at that point.
