NOT THROUGH YET.
Judge ConIan to Take Wittman's
Case to the Grand Jury.

The decision of the Police Commission
ers generating Sergeant Whitman formed
the chief topic of conversation at the old
City Hall yesterday. Opinions were con-
tlctiug, some holding that no other de-
cision was to be expected after Att OrDey
DUNES trenchant criticism of the wit
nesses for the prosecution, while other s
characterized it as unfair and not in ac-
cordance with the evidence. The latter did
not hesitate to use harsh lang uage in re-
ferring to the Commissioners.
Judge Conlan said be was not surprised
at the decision, but he was not yet through
with the matter.
Il intend" he said. "to carry the matter
before the Grand Jury, and do not think
the Commissioner whitewash will reach
that far. On Monday night [ intend to 90
before the Commissioners and withdra W
my charges against Corporal Parrotte,
giving my reasons for doing SO. The Grand
Jury will hear of his case also"
Chief Crowley said he was satisfied with
the decision. The Commissioners devoted
about three hours to careful review of
the evidence and came to the conclusion
that the charges had not been substan tiated,
he feels satisfied that il the public had an
opportunity If reading the evidence in It's
entirety the decision would be universally
adiudged as right and just.
In police circles the question of Ser
geant Wittman's resignation is being
eagerly discussed. 1t was rumored when
the charges were made that he would fight
them to clear his character, and then he
would hand ln his resignation, as he was
tired of being prosecuted.

swELTERING ON THE FRONT.
Foaming Beakers ;of Beer Prove I'm
usually Seductive.

| People who do not visit the wharves
have an idea that the city front is one of
the coolest places in town on warm day
| This is mistaken impression.
The front suffers as much from the heat
as any part of the city. and yesterday it
suffered more.
At 9 O'Clock in the morning there was
not ripple on the bay. The breeze which
generally blows stiff. cool and dust
ladened along the northern sections of the
| seawail failed to materlaliLe, so much as
puff. up to O'Clock in the afternoon.
From the signal station at North Beach
Island to the he ads, while toward the
Oakland side the waters of The harbor
were placid and CLASSY.
Yes. it was warm on the front. At 9
o'clock the glass registered SO degrees in
the shade at the foot Of Powell street, and
by noon 1t stood 90 in the shade at the fer
ries.
Along the southern docks the tall masts
of ships were forming twisting spirals
against the sky In the uncertain waves of
heat The wharves were almost deserted,
and those who were obliged to work did
| so under protest.
A few of the yachts were out, but they
only drifted helplessly about with the tide
| occasionally catching puff of wind which
| helped them to keep steerags way.
VI courss the saloons were well patron
| ICED. Waterfront saloons always do a
land-office buliness on warm day. Their
smooth sanded floors. comfortable chairs
and bars running over with foaming
beakers OF beer are great temptation to
thirsty Seamen or stevedores who hapI en-
by when the glass is way up in the
nineties.
And what a big difference between the
temperature of waterfront saloon and
the broiling. baking docksi Seventy-tve
degrees of heat was warm for one of those
resorts yesterday, when outside it ranged
| all the way from 70 TO 90 degrees.
! All the old waterfront men were unani-
nous in agreeing it was the warmest day
on record for five years
1t was a good day to stay indoors in the
shade. and everybody along the front did
so. unless pressing business ruled other
| wise
