EIGHTY THOUSAND CASH.
Naphtaly, Freidenreich & Acker'
mans Fee From the
Blythe Estate.
The Supreme Court Has Affirmed the
Allowance-Judge Temples
Opinion.

The Supreme Court has affirmed the
decision ofJudge Coffey al.owingN aphtaly,
Freidenreich & Alderman $4,000 counsel
fees for services as attorneys to James
Pennie, administrator OF the Blythe estate.
Pennie was administrator of the Blythe
estate, by virtue of his Office as Public
Administrator, from 1889 to 1893. The
firm named acted as counsel for him, and
VIII en- it came to settling up at the end
of his term there was trouble. Naphtaly,
Freidenreich e. Alderman asked to have
fees allowed them, and Judge Coffey
finally settled on $4,000 as the proper
figure. This was only reached, however,
after much testimony had been taken. the
burden of which was that the sum should
be $4,000, or even 100000. In the end,
however, Florence Blythe Hinckley agreed
to the figure, but Freese was obdurate and
refused to pay 1t until the Supreme Court
had passed upon the question, and so he
appealed. The Supreme Court has just
affirmed Judge Coffey's allowance.

NEEDED POLICE STATION.
To Be Located on Oak Street,
One Block From the Park
Entrance.
The Supervisors Are Willing and
All Depends On Chief
Crowley.

1t is almost an assured fact that a new
police station and branch receiving hos
pital are soon to be established in the
abandoned power house of the Oak street
line at the corner of Broderick and Oak
streets.
For years past police station has been
wanted somewhere in or near the Pan
handle and Richmond districts.
When the Market-street Railway Com
pany virtually abandoned the power-house
OF the Oak-street road the residents and
property-owners OF the district saw their
opportunity and petitioned the Super
visors and Police Commissioners.
Both these bodies acknowledged that
st alton was needed in that part of the
City, and allowed it to be inferred that, if
the railway company would lease the
power-house TO the City for police pur-
poses, they would establish station at
that point.
Foremost among the leading spirits in
the movement is DR.. f. +. Lord. He was
one of the first to bring the need of a
police station near the park to the atten
tion of the Supervisors and Commission
ers, and since the favorable order passed
by the former body he has been assiduous
in his efforts to secure the cooperation of
the Commissioners and Chief Crowley.
Chief Crowley promised yesterday that
he would have talk with the railway
people regarding the lease of the power
house for police station. He has placed
himself on record as being in favor of es-
tablishing new station at that point, and
as soon as he says the word the thing will
be done.
Said DR.. Lord yesterday: "Chief Crow
ley is the one on whom we solely rely now.
The Supervisors have passed their order,
and annrOVpS have q
station. There is not part of the City
where a section of the Police Department
is more needed. There is station on
Seventeenth street, between Howard and
Mission, one on Folsom street, one on
Jackson, near Polk, one on the water
front and one in South San Francisco, but
none in the Richmond and Panhandle
districts. But that is not all. If the City
locates a station IN the Oak-street power
house we will have branch Receiving
Hospital. There is no place in the whole
City where hospital is so badly needed
Accidents at the rate of twenty or thirty a
week occur in the park and on the drives
leading thereto, and the nearest station
from which amDulances can be sent is the
City Hall.
81 Jam told the City cannot afford to
build or buy station building, and it was
at once obvious to the Supervisors that the
lease of the power-house was move In the
interests OF economy. AS soon as Chief
Crowley consults the Southern Pacific and
| completes negotiations for the building we
will complete our arrangements for the
branch Receiving Hospital"
DR.. Lord and three or four other physi-
clans living in the neighborhood have sig
nified their willingness to give their emer-
gency services gratis for the sake OF having
the station and branch Receiving Hospital
established there.

Have Strong Objections to the
Interference of the
Police.
THREE MORE ARRESTS MADE.
Sergeant John Martin and Officer
Harter Ably Illustrate How to
Handle a Mob.

The police and the pool men are having
a fight. Chief Crowley, realizing that the
.Belfry'' harpies have been violating the
law, has sent his officers down upon them
and six of the tribes have been arrested.
The first three roomkeepers-John Stay
sen, alias Stensil, John D. Bowman and
William Jackman-were gathered in Mon
day and, through Sam Regensburger, their
attorney, they have obtained continuance
of their case until Friday next. The other
three-George D. Givens, W. Lawrence
and Frank Ward-were gathered in yester.
day afternoon and their cases are to come
UP this morning. There are sixteen more
arrests to be made, but there seems to be a
disposition on the part of the police to
work the thing gradually, especially as the
arrested parties intend to fight for what
they claim are their rights.
"Billy" Stensi, who was the first pugil-
istic manager James j. Corbett had, is
the only one so far who seems to be willing
to knuckle down and pay his fine for hav-
ing violated the Ellert ordinance prohibit
ing the sale of pools on races outside of
the inclosure wherein the races occur. He
is in exactly the same position his fellow
booksellers of the "Belfry" are, but he is
frank enough to acknowledge the corn,
saying: "I'Il pay my fine like man; L m
no kicker" and as a mental reservation he
says to himself, 'I'li open up again until
I'm stopped"
The men who have been arrested have
suffered no more hardship than is caused
by their having to put up 500 bail money
They feel confident that the worst they
will get for violating the law is fine of
sos, and they are willing to pay this
tribute to the municipality for the privi-
lege of running their games fora few days.
William Kennedy, who owns one OF the
poolrooms in the "Belfry," stands out
prominent among his confreres. He feels
strong, as he is probably the only one in
the entire lot who would pay bet in the
three figures. He has got money, and,
while he is not included in the solid eight
of booksellers who get their odds from the
track, he declares that he is just as good
as they are and will not close up under
pressure unless they do.
II am not satisfied" he stated yester-
day, with the way things are being con-
Quoted in the 'Belirv.' These fellows put
up their odds before they are put up at
the track. | do not [ wait until the
odds are penciIed at the 'Morgue' or the

There is whole story in Kennedy's
quaint way of putting things. He calls
Hallinan and Corbett's houses the
"Morgue" and Receiving Vault" respect

WALKERLEY WILL CASE.
English Heirs Action to Enforce the
Trust Now Being Argu in the
Federal Court.

English Heirs Action to Enforce the
Trust Now Being Argued in the
Federal Court.
The case of the several English heirs Of
William w alkerley against TrusteesC Colum-
bus Bartlett, Frank Barker and Martin
Bacon to compel a specific performance of
the trust in the will was partly argued be-
fore Judge Beatty of the United States Cir
cult Court yesterday.
The Supreme Court of this State decided
that the trust was void because definite
period of time had been designated, and
the court held that to carry out the terms
of the trust to the letter might defeat the
very intention of the will. The estate con-
sists of about $40O. 600 worth OF property in
Oakland, and it includes the Pacific o MON
Club building and site on Post and Stock
ton streets.
Recently distribution of the property
was made to the widow of the deceased,
now Mrs. William f. Burbank of Oakland,
by an order of the Alameda County Pro-
bate Court under the Supreme Courts de-
cision.
The English heirs ignore the State Su-
preme Courts decision entirely in their
action and demand that the trust be car
ried out. The main questions are as to
the validity of the trust and as to whether
the decision of the State Supreme Court is
binding on the trustees and others con-
cerned.

Quite the contrary.

Quite the contrary.
Hours before the track bookmakers
ventured to post their odds, the down
town harpies had their odds up and were
selling. Tie eight big houses and Ken
nedy, the only institutions in the down
town business having any monetary back
ing, did not post their odds until they
were lad at the track, but the bucket-shops
the police have begun to raid cared little
what they did. With them it was simply
case of gather In as much money as pos.
sible, and, ii a customer happened to win,
refuse to pay him.
Yesterday afternoon Ellis street was
comparatively clear of the crowd of women
and children who formerly congregated in
front of the poolrooms. The police raids
had saiutary effect. But there occurred
one incident which shows what power the
police have when they care to enforce it.
One OF the young men frequenters of the
rooms reached the sidewalk and, encoun-
tering candy-monger with his tray OF
sweets, he kicked both over.
At that moment Officer Harper came up
and he took the Delligerent fellow in. In
less than five minutes Ellis street was
black with people. The gamblers from all
the poolrooms came rushing out thinking
another raid was taking place.
They crowded around Harter and made
it decidedly uncomfortabl BILE for him. How
ever, Harter, who was formerly sergeant
on the force, and who is probably one OF
the stoutest-hearted men in the depart
ment, held on to his prisoner with one
hand, and dragging him along pushed the
crowd right and left with the other. He
fought his way up the street in excellent
shape, and there met his sergeant, John
Martin, who had been attracted to the
scene by the shouts of the mob.
The two officers made short work OF the
crowd and soon cleared the street. Such
men on Ellis street would have been 9
great boon to the shopkeepers.

one of score who are doing business with

in their violation of the law.
Now that the arrests have been made
convictions should be secured, and THE
CALL as cheerfully tells Prosecuting At
pointed the way out how to make the
arrests.
The pool men, strong in their position of
commission brokers, which entities them
to deal in race tickets under the Wallace
decision, should have confined themselves
strictly to a commission business. In
other words, they should have been in
connection with the racetrack booksellers
so as to place all moneys deposited with
them In town. For this service they should
have charged commission from each Gus
toner.
Ali of this the "Belfry" men have not
done. They have never had connection
with the racetrack, and they have not col
lected cent commission from any pur-
chaser OLA pool ticket. Hence all their
betting has been gamble pure and
simple and contrary to the Ellert ordi-
nance. But the strong point against the
men under arrest'is this: To do COM
mission business, the buying or selling
place being at the track, they must neces-
sarlly have waited for the odds on the
races to be laid at the track before quoting

.DOCKERY IS PERSONATEO.
Practical Joke Played Upon the
Boy Driver of a Milk
Wagon.
Warrants Out for the Arrest of the
Two Jokers Who Are Sought by
the Detec tiveS.

Detectives have for a week been search
ing for two young men who played a
practical joke on the driver of milk
wagon belonging to Mitchells Sunnyside
Dairy by representing themselves as
assistants of Milk Inspector Dockery.
The driver, a boy named Peters, was
coming into the City on the night OF Mon
day, December 8, with load of milk.
When he came to Thirtieth street and San
Jose avenue two young men stepped in
front Of his horses and said, "Hold on,
there; we are Dockery's assistants and we
want to examine your milk"
The boy, seeing there was no use in
offering resistance to Dockery or his
assistants, promptly pulled up and said,
"Go ahead; you'll find the milk pure
The pseudo assistants put something
like a red pencil into the cans and one OF
them remarked: "The milk is pure to a
certain extent, but there isn't enough
butter fat.'' Without saying another
word they emptied thirty-six gallons OF
milk into the ditch and coolly walked
away. go. -
The boy drove back to the dairy with the
emrjty cans and told Mitchell that
Dockery's assistants had poured out the
milk because they said there was not
enough butter fat. Mitchell was mad, and
when he met Dockery he asked him what
his assistants meant by dumping out pure
milk. Dockery denied the charge, ana
explanations followed. 1t was then seen
that the two young men had played
practical joke upon Peters, and the police
were notified. !.
Peters gave an accurate description OF
The two young men, and the detectives are
satisfied they will be able to lay lneir
hands upon them. Yesterday morning
Peters swore to John Doe" and "Richard
Roe" warrants for the arrest OF the two
"iokers' on the charge of falsely Imper-
sonating another man, and the prooa-
bility is they will be arrested soon.
The joke has been an unfortunate one
for Peters. Mitchell discharged him and
refuses to pay him his wages unless he
makes good the loss of the thirty-six gal
Ions of milk.
