The morning call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1878-1895, 1895-01-19

giving day the football teams of Stanford
and Berkeley played the game of the year,
and when darkness descended upon the
field many of the contestants and specta-
tors wendell their way to the city to cele-
brate the victory or drown the bitter taste
of defeat in the bowl that exhilarates.
Late at night little group of roisterers,
among whom were Max l.. Resented
"Brick" Whitehouse and Quarterback
Haroldson of the Stanford team, met at
the bar in Gobey's saloon on Suffer street.
Young Loughborough entered and began
shaking dice with some friends. One of
the ivory cubes fell from the bar to the
floor and Resented indicated the place
where it lay. Loughborough, according to
the story told by Resented at the time and
on the witness-stand yesterday, pushed the
cane aside with his foot.
"That was not very gentlemanly,"
Resented remarked.
There was no love between Tough borough
and Resented. They had met and quar-
relied before, and when the latter intimated
that the former had not acted as a gentle
man Loughborough's blood began to boil.
Raising his fist he struck at his ancient
enemy and in return received a stunning
blow on the nose. Blood gushed from his
nostrils and his wrath, which was increased
by the gibes and jeers of the merrymakers,
turned into frenzy. Drawing a revolver he
fired shot at Rosenfeld, and turning
around sent two bullets whistling toward
the place where Brick Whitehouse, the
well-known ball-player, stood with Stan
fords' quarterback. The three bullets took
effect. Whitehouse and Resented were
wounded, and the once-jovial crowd dis
solved, leaving Cooley to tell the reporters
and the police that nothing, absolutely
nothing, had occurred in his place.
Carroll Cook, assisted by whispered sug-
gestions from Loughborough ST., exhausted
all his skill in endeavoring to make Rosen-
field contradict himself or admit that
Loughborough fired indiscriminately.
"He shot me, and turning at right
angle, fired twice at Whitehouse, y the wit
ness asserted, in tones that contained not
the slightest suggestion of doubt.
Police Captain Douglass testified that
two or three hours after the scene at
Gobey's young Loughborough, accom-
panied by his father and friend arrived
at the Central police station and surren-
revolver which Loughborough welded on
that tempestuous night and showed the
court its three empty chambers.
DIR. Tension Deane of the Receiving Hos
pital told how he repaired young Mr..
toughboroughs damaged nose when the
defendant was taken to the prison.
''Brick' Whitehouse corroborated Ro-
senfeld' S narrative IN every important par
ticular.
''You had been drinking, hadn't you ?"
asked Attorney Cook.
''Only three drinks, "Brick" blushingly
confessed.
"And what were they?"
.Whisky and ginger ale.'
Then, as in Rosenfeld's case, the attor-
ney labored to make the witness contradict
himself, but Bricks" head was clear and
his memory showed no signs of weakness.
When he left the stand the prosecution
had practically closed its case. The de-
tense has subpenaed some thirty witnesses,
and that side of the case will be told next
Thursday afternoon.

A JOSS JAILED.
The Chinatown Squad Breaks Up a
Highbinders' Headquarters.

The Chinatown Squad Breaks Up a
Highbinders' Headquarters.
The Chinatown police squad under Ser
geant Gillen made raid last night on the
headquarters of the Choy Leong Tong, a
hlghblnders' society, at SD Clay street.
For some time past Sergeant Gillen has
noticed that the society has been meeting
and holding rather lively sessions. The
members were unusually devoted in their
worship of the great god, Guon CHM, who
is a sort of Monaghan Jove among the
hlghblnders. They also made night hide
Gus with strains of earsplitting music.
From past experience the sergeant knew
that when one of the several societies be-
gins to lnaugurate "ghost dances" the
others follow suit. Then the trouble be-
tween the highbinders begins. So he con-
GUIDED that the best thing to do would be
to nip the proceedings in the bud.
When the raiders went into the place
they found thirteen ugly looking high
binders seated around their el-bedecked
god. They were all searched for weapons,
but the willy heathens did not have any.
They were thrown out of their den, and
the mighty joss, the highlander notices
on the walls and the other paraphernalia
were taken to the old City Hall If the
members OF the society want to open new
headquarters they will have to buy a COM
plete outfit, a joss included.
y descent was also made by the SQUAD
upon the rooms of the Bo Sin Sare Society
at IA jackson street, but no one was
found there, as the news of the first raid
had evidently been carried down ahead of
the officers

The Legislature to BE Asked to Change
the Law.
The Finance Committee of the Board of
Supervisors yesterday discussed the ques-
ton of the Market-street grade. The last
board ordered the street graded from Va
lencia street to the end of the hill. Some
objections were made to the district as
sessed to pay for the work and the matter
was taken to the courts. The Superior Court
decided that under the present law the
trct t to i be assessed ass The Supervisors ss de-
termined to appeal the case, but yesterday,
after discussing the matter, the Finance
Committee recommended to the board that
City and County Attorney Creswell be in
structed to dismiss the appeal. twas then
decided to recommend the passage of res
olution by the Supervisors asking the San
Francisco delegation IN the State Legisla-
ture to secure an amendment of the law
authorizing the Supervisors to change all
street grades at their discretion.

WARRIORS ON THE GRIDIRoN.
Naval Reserves and Light Battery to
Play Football.


Next Saturday teams from the Light
Battery and the Naval Reserve, Company
D, will wage mimic war on the gridiron in
an endeavor to establish the superiority of
their respective companies. There is in
tense rivalry between the two organiza-
tions, and the members for some time have
been looking for chance to prove which
one has the most soldierly men and the
best general. 1t was decided that foot
ball game was best calculated to show
forth the qualities of which soldiers are
made, as it calls for strategy, strength,
pluck and GOODNESS.
Manager John Smith for the soldiers aud
Manager Hanna for the sailors decided
that the Maria Kip Orphanage and the
Sheltering Arms Home should be the re-
cipients of The proceeds of the game, and
they have been deyoting all their energy
toward making the receipts as large as
possible.
Both teams have been practicing for
about month and a half and are working
hard to show up in as good form as pos
sible. They practice on alternate nights
at the Armory on Pacific avenue, which
has been lately fixed up as riding school.
The floor has been covered with tanbark
and makes a fair football field. Edwards,
halfback of the Reliance team, has been

BIRMINGHAM BONDS.

It is we'll known to most of our city readers that about ten days ago Mf 5. Steiner made a proposition to the clty council By which it was thought he could find relief for the city under the danger ous pressure now upon us in regard to our bonded debt. The city accepted the proposition which simply gave MT. Steiner authority to obtain an extension of time on the aceruing interest. That gentleman, accompanied by his attorney, Judge Howze, and several other gentle tlemen. proceeded to Baltimore, where they met a majority of the holders of Birminghams bonds, and made them proposition.
 The Baltimore American of the 20th brings us the following information in regard to the matter:
 The Baltimore holders of Birmingham, Ala bonds yesterday made final prop osition to the aldermanic committee of the Southern city. It was to accept through the Baltimore Trust and Guar antee Company deferred payments on alternate coupons of the $1610,000 bond issue, the rate of interest on such de- ferred payments to be per cent. AS the Birmingham committee was not clothed with full authority to act with out consulting the city authorities whom they represent, acceptance of the prop osition was deferred Should the propo- sition be accepted there will probably be one or more meetings here to consum- mate details.
 As we understand it, Mir. Steiner's proposition was similar to the above, ex- cept that deferred payments were to bear : per cent interest.
 Our Mayor and Aldermen will probably take hold of the matter at once and ad- just the difference in some way. Our citizens will be glad to learn that there is a good prospect for an early adjust ment, and that our city is not to suffer the humiliation of defaulting on her in- terest

IRON AS A BAROMETER.

An encouraging sign of the times in the industrial world is an increased de- mand for iron and steel products, and a moderate improvement in prices. While there is nothing approXimating a boom in the iron and steel market and no wild advance is anticipated, such as has oc- cured in the case of cotton. petroleum, grain and other standard products, new ertheless manufacturers concur in the opinion that their business is on the mend and feel encouraged by the en- larged demand and the consequent inn provement in prices. Indeed, the favor able feature of the situation and pros pect is that speculation is lacking and the improvement which has occurred is of a substantial character
 As iron is still considered the most re- liable barometer of the general condi- ton of affairs in the industrial world, by conservative observers. the change for the better receives especial significance.
 Specific instances of improvement come from Philadelphia, where iron and steel products are in better demand. The fact that pig billets, bars, pipes, tubes, plates, rails and grders are in enlarged demand indicates that the improvement Is not confined to any especial line and reflects improvement in all branches and departments of industry. The railroad companies are purchasing steel rails more freely than at any previous time since the panic of May, 1893. Building operations in the larger cities which re- quire the use of structural iron and steel, are heinz undertaken on a larger scale Carriage and wagon builders and manu- lecturers of agricultural implements and tools-particularly Western concerns are purchasing more freely for actual re- quirements.
 The mills and furnaces in the Pitts burg district and also in the Mahoning and Shenango valleys are reported to have sold their output of the next two months. At Western iron centers, as well as Philadelphia and Pittsburg, a stronger tone to iron and steel exists
 As to prices. steel blllets are maintain ing their advance. Merchant bars have advanced, and other varieties from s2 to $4 ton. Coke threatens another ad-
