WON'T GO WHILE MAYOR.
GilrOy Says He Doesn't Contemplate
ara Early Trip to Europe.

Mayor Gilroy exhibited much feeling
to-day When asked IL the report that he
was contemplating a European trip
was true. When a clipping from n
morning paper headed "Gilroy's Eyes
on Europe was shown the Mayor his
face flushed and he spoke with unmis-
taxable emphasis.
THAT head line" he said. 'Is evil
IDENTIFY malicious. If you read the article
you will see that the head line is not
justified by the subject matter. There
is nothing In the story except hat when
my term of office expires. and I am a
private citizen once more, / may go to
Europe.
Il admit that my eyes have been on
Europe for the last six years, but /
have not had the opportunity Of crafty
ing my desire to take the trip. When
my term. of office lexpires there will be
nothing in the way of my going, If I
please"
Those who saw Mr.. Gilroy's eyes snap
when he spoke inferred that there was
either trouble brewing OF already
brewed between the -Tammany organ
n the politicians whom 1t ha been
supporting.

BEAT THE ARISTOCRATS.
A Los ANGELES MAN PLAYS
POKER A LA WATTERSON.
Nichol Weaver Falls In with the No.
torious Billy Hurt aud Does Up
the Wealthy Guats-
msians.

According TO O recent article in the
San Francisco Examiner, a Los Angeles
man has been engaged in swindling the
aristocrats OF Guatemala. He had as an
accomplice the notorious card sharp,
Billy Hurt of Santa Barbara. Although
the report says little OF the Los Angeles
man, calling him Captain Weaver, it is
asserted that he is Nicholas J. Weaver,
who was formerly an advertising Sc
icitor in this CITY. He later conducted
the Ledger Publishing company, which
had as one OF its hackers DR.. G. W. Bry-
son. 1t is understood Weaver's wife is
still here.
According to a recent arrival from
Guatemala, quoted In the Examiner,
Hurt and Weaver did land Office busi-
ness in the Central American town.
They represented themselves to be
American capitslists with the intention
of starting a bank in the Guatemalan
capital. Weaver was the leader Of the
bank scheme. His hobby was, when be
got hie bank opened. to place Guate-
malan currency on an equal basis with
American gold, snd the way he ex-
planned things his scheme promised to
become one which would benefit the
country.
Weaver went by the name OF Captain
Weaver from New York. while Hurt
posed under the euphonius cognomen OF
William Watts, jr,, q California rancher
and capitalist. BY and by. when they
had introduced themselves to the
wealthy persone OF the tropical metropo-
lis, and got people TO thinking they
we're really moneyed men, they
quietly introduced the card racket, and
soon the club room OF the Grand hotel
was the scene OF many a real poker game
for fun and money. Hurt. here, had a
chance to display his old time skill in
lingering the pasteboards. and he and
Weaver, though quietly, made living ex-
penses at the card table.
Soon the California men started larger
schemes for fleeing the aristocratic
Guatemalans. and were on the eve of
suscses when San Francisco traveller
one dav recognized Billy Hurt and ex-
poeed him. TIE expose created sensa-
ton throughout that country, and Hurt
and Weaver turned up missing g day
later. When last heard from Hurt was
in New York again, but Weaver's Local
ton is unknown.

How A Winston Street Professor Was
Made Mad.
Some person whose identity was lost
in the shuttle left the following commu-
nication with the HERALD last night. A
careful perusal of the thing shows some
thing has happened. and that the writer
OF the communication is very well aware
of that fact:
Prof. A. G. Gardner, on Winston
street, is madder than hornet. lie
awoke yesterday morning, finding some
thief had stolen his carriage valued at
$3.50. About o'clock three boys found a
letter in the alley back of the postofice,
addressed to him: Professor, Dear Prof.

bring shore ct Elebven 10 am" 1t was
on North Main street grocery bill blank
and an envelope. The folks couldn't wait,
elebven 10, but it came. but the carriage
had not arrived at its proper station.
Mrs. Gardner thinks their watch had
not been wound up. and probably when
they will awake, it will be II 10 pm.
Two weeks ago burglars broke open
their etore and stole the piano tuning
box with its contents, and all the
strings. 5000 used up stamps for the
Catholic asylum at San Francisco.
About 800 worth was missing. The
police have been notified of the facts.

The KING OF TRAMPs.

He Appears for Trial In the Police
Court.
Tobe Wilson. the king of tramps, has
again made his appearance in Los An
geles. He had not been here more than
few hours yesterday before Officer FL
field found him "atriking" passersby
for the price of a meal" and placed
him under arrest for begging. The tes-
tmony in the po!ics court was conclu-
sive e5 to the king's guilt, and he will
receive enug little sentence on the
chain gang today from Justice Austin,
which will obviate the labor on the part
OF Wilson Of begging for grub. This Tobe
Wilson, who is known in every jeil on
the Pacific coast, from San Diego to the
utmost confines of Washington, has
lived tho life of tramp for many
years. He ia emphatic in his declara-
ton that it ia only iii for slaves to work,
and therefore he toleth not. His travels
are nll made ON brakebeams, which he
rides with consummate ease. During
his extensive career "a O striker" he
has made the Acquaintance of every pol
itician or rerson of note on the coast,
and levied contributions on them.
he he's also learned to revere all po-
licemen and c)nstables, and they, in
return. alway1 provide lobe with q soft
plank in the nearest Jail. Although e
good plssterer, the king won't work,
neither will he steal, and the only

THEY FEAR TO FACE 1T.
WHY THE COUNCIL DOES NOT
APPOINT.
The Fact That tho Police Commissio n
Is Shy Ono Member Has
Been Lost Sight
or.

There hae been considerable comment
of late over the fact that the council has
appointed no successor to the late
Thomas J. Weldon as police commis-
sioner.
The matter has never yet been men
toned in any meeting of the council SO
o legislative body. The council is solely
invested with the right to appoint some
body to the vacancy.
When the vacancy was first created,
speculation was rife as to the man who
would fill the position, and candidates
for the place were not lacking by any
means. The councilmen we're besieged
with applications presented by friends OF
those who aspired, as we'll as by the as
pirants themselves.
But the gentlemen OF the council
turned deaf ear to all
entreaty. and they must have
done more, for they stopped all the clat-
ter in very short time, and there
hasn't been a word said about a sue.
cessor to Tom Weldon for several weeks.
Yesterday gentleman who takes an
active interest In public affairs was in
terviewed on the subject by reporter
OF the HERLAD.
The reason the council hasn't ap-
pointed Tom Wsldon's successor? Why,
that's too easy. Politics, nothing else
but politics. Why, look at the situa-
tion. There is not single member OF
the council who is not either out to sue.
ceed himself or else wants to step up
higher.
NOW, there is not a councilman who
has the nerve to face the proposition
and bring up the matter by presenting
q name. That is all it would want to
star. tho ball, but it would be hot
fight, and the councilmen shrink from
