vention-Iooking to Government Pur-
chase of the Telegraph Lines.
WASHINGTON, July 22.-Gen. A. j. War
ner, president Of the American Bimetallic
league, has issued the following address:
"The country has now had years expe-
rlence under a gold standard policy, since
the acts Of 1893 closing the minis Of India
and the stoppage of the coinage of silver
in the United States. The results of this
experience are manifest on every hand
in business depression Of the country,
in labor strikes and in general discomfort
that everywhere prevails. Congress will
soon complete its work, and the general
situation and the prospects before the
country will then be fully disclosed.
Some state elections, involving the cleo
ton of United States senators, have al
ready been entered upon and the cam
paign for the election of members of the
house for the Fiftyfourth congress will
soon begin.
''In view Of these conditions, the execu-
tive committee Of the American Bimetal-
lie league have thought it advisable to
call conference of those who believe
that no permanent improvement in the
condition Of the country can be hoped
Tor as long as the present gold standard
policy is pursued and who favor the i'm
mediate restoration of the bimetallic
standard in the United States, with the
free coinage of both gold and silver at
the ratio of sixteen to one, to be held in
Washington, Thursday, August 16, 1894,
to take into consideration the condition
Of the country, and to decide upon the
policy to be pursued to bring about
change in the monetary policy of the
government necessary to restore pros
perity to the people,

Hardenburg was excused for short
time and instructed to return with book
containing the account of Jerry Mahoney
and also the famous red slips. He re-
turned with one of the latter. but the book
was missing. After examining the little
piece OF red cardboard carefully Attorney
Clunie asked what the letter IN" signified
on the righ-hand corner.
II could not say what that MEANS" re-
piled Harden burg, unless it is the pri-
vate mark of the Dookkeeper."
'Is it not fact that all of the seventeen
or more red slips in question are marked
as this one with the letter M ?"
II think they are, but of that am not
certain and would not care to swear posi-
lively"
'Do you know guest named Isidore
Cohen?' was Clunie's next query.
Hardenburg in the mean time had taken
small slip of paper from his vest pocket
and was studying it carefullyiwhen the at
torney detected him. The latter immed-
ately wanted 10 know the contents of the
paper, but the witness positively declined
to divulge them. He said the paper was a
private matter. and contained nothing in
connection with the matter at issue. Gu

denburg's rescue and permitted him TO re-

"Y ou have established a reputation in
your capacity as clerk" continued Clunie,
'f0r remem bering names and recalling
faces after long lapse of years. How is
it you cannot recall CohD. when he has
resided in your hotel long enough to per-
NIT him to register as voter?"
Hardenburg could not account for his
alarming change in this regard aud made
matters worse by admitting hesltatingly,
of course. tina. he knew little or nothing of
the majority of the remaining registered
voters" whose names were on the Great
Register as being residents of the Bald
win Hotel. BE had never met them, but
Miller, the night clerk. French, the cashier,
or Clerks Dexter or Gilmore might be able
to claim an acquaintance with the guests
in question.
"Who occupies room 44?" asked Clunie
suddenly.
The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1894-11-06
That's all 1 know

my mind entirely. That's all 1 know
about him."
He was then excused, and another sem
satoD, but nlilder in character, was occa-
stoned when Tom 81. Williams. president
and manager of the California Jockey
Club. was asked to inform the court how
many men there were living on the prop
erty known as the Bay District track.
''Oh! there are some 1000 men out there
at present, replied the witness, "compris-
ing Jockeys. trainers, track laborers, host
lers and attendants of a general char
acter."
Clunie wanted to know their names, but
Williams smiled scornfullY and announced
that be was far too busy with other mat
ters to pay any attention 80 the names
of the employees on the track. He said
the books Of the secretary of the club
would give the names of some, but the
various owners having horses Quartered
there had many more.
rs Colonel Burns a director OF the
Jockey Club?" he was asked. land dldyou
ever confer with him concerning the regis
tration of these men?"
Williams az first declined to answer,
stating that it was none of anybody's busi-
ness whether he had conferred with Burns
instructions he finally admitted that he
had instructed the track superin tendent to
sea that the men in his employ registered
in due time and continuing he said:
II also told him that L would give the m
their instructions later on"
''DO you mean to say that you are in the
habit of having your employees register and
then instruct them as 10 how they shall
vote?"
"You may call it instruction if you
choose" said Williams. hotly, "but l mean
to say that if | have a friend or friends
for whom l am working politically | ask
comply with nv wishes. l have just COM
pleted my ticket and prepared slips which
will be distributed"
"These slips you speak of are distrib-
uted at the pols"
That's none of your business. The
work will be done just the same, and as
see fit. am doing this for the good of the
State, and know the law well enough to
keep safely within its bounds"
Williams was ANXIOUS TO get away in or
der to deliver a speseh at Stockton and
vote to-day, but Clunie insisted upon
trying to find out how 1000 men could be
afforded living accommodations at the Bay
District Track. He did not succeed, how
sver. as Williams refused to telephone for
the secretary and his books and contented
himself with explaining that some OF the
men occupied rooms in the maiu building
and others slept in stalls and feed boxes.
An adjournment was then taken until
tomorrow morning, when the Bay District
track registration and the affairs of the
Standard lodging-hOusa will be fully venti-
lated. Attorneys Clunie and NOngueS
fully expect to dig up verilabIe nest of
suffers from both places, and further
startling developments may be expected.

registered citizens from this caraYansary

occupy rooms so that Mahoney could gain
their votes at the polls. This done be had
no further use for them, and dry-goods

Mr.. HardeAburg stated that there were
number of slips placed in a rack in the
hotel Office, the red indicating those who
both lodged and boarded. OF the red
slips seventeen bore the names of regis
tered citizens. whom the clerk knew moth
ing of and for whom accounts had never
been opened on the hotel ledger. Mr..
Clunie then inquired as to who was pay
ing for the rooms occupied by the mys-
terious seventeen, but Clerk Hardenburg
explained that he was not the bookkeeper

Stern berger be also committed under sec
ton % of the purity act:
Every person who willfully causes procures
or allows any other person 10 be registered in
the precinct register or Great Register OF any
county, city or county, knowing such person
not to be entitled to such registration is pun
ishable by imprisonment in the State orison for
not less than one year nor more than three
years.
From an argument then being made be-
fore the Supreme Court Attorney Short
ridge and his client. Registrar Evans, were
then summoned before Judge Wallace in
hot haste. Upon their arrival they wers
informed by I. J. l.. Smiley of what had
taken place during their absence, ana
Evans was Immediately placed upon the
stand.
''You have asdeputy in your office named
Stern berger" Mr.. Clunie began, land we
are anxious to know how long you have
known him, and through whose influence
be obtained employment under you"
Shortridge was on his feet in an instant
with vigorous objection. He claimed
that the court, in the present examination,
had no right to question Evans as to who
recommended the appointment of any Of
his deputies.
Clunie remarked that if ShOrtridRe and
his client were as anxious to purge the
register Of ''siuffers" as they claimed to
be, objections OF this character would not
be made. Before any further argument
could be made, however, Judge Wallace
overruled the objection and Evans pro-
ceeded to answer.

After all this startling information had
been obtained. Attorney Nugues ventured
to inquire who was paying the bills or
these distinguished gentlemen.
~ can't say who is paying them. said
the witness meeklv. 81 can't see from the
books that any of the accounts have been
paid individually. but it may be that they
are paid in lump"
"Then we want the lump man by all
MEANS" said the attorney smiiingly, land

there but moment. Hardenburg next
proceeded TO tear it into small pieces.

ney, Il am sure the witness was refresh
ing his memory from the paper which he is
now tearing, and | think we are entitled
to know what was written thereon"
"Well, if you want to know" broke in
the EN- barrassed clerk. ''it is only letter
from a lady"
And the court let it 60 at that.
The examination was again continued
with such persistency that little by little
it became evident that the barbers
plumbers, carpenters and pookkeepers
registered from store-rooms and apart
ments occupied by steady patrons were
really guests in name only and never con-
tribnted one dollar for the privilege Of
sleeping in the centrally located Baldwin

"Well, you can certainly. inform u.s." said
Mr.. Clunie, "when these gentlemen ar
rived and registered?
mo, / don't think / can," came the
hating reply, because many Of our guests
don't register at all or make use OF fictitious

came the unhe stating response.
This was sufficient, and one after an
other the uneasy Hardenburg answered
questions, so truthfully and yet so reluct-
antly that the court became convinced that
all of the glorious seventeen were either
myths or flake" guests. The great regis
ter revealed the fact that baggage-rooms,
parlors, reception-rooms and employees
apartments were occupied by voters" of
at least thirty days residence in the Bald
win Hotel.
But the red slips, unaccompauied by led
ger or cash-book entries, told the whole
story.
