ALASKA COAST SURVEY
Appropriation Of $4,000 to Be
Asked for photographic
Work.
Superintendent Duffeld Will Apply to
Congress for That Amount
This Winter.

Among the appropriations to be asked
of the coming Congress will be one for an
extensive survey of the coast of Alaska.
Superintendent Duffield of the United
States Coast and Geodetic Survey at Wash
ington has decided to ask for at least $780,
600 for this purpose, his object being to
have a thorough revision of the former
surveys made by Russian, English and
American officers.
At present the photography of the Alas
kan coast, as it appears on the Government
charts, is not such that navigators can
always rely on it, and the $4,000, if Sc
cured, is to be devoted wholly to hydro
graphical work. A closer determination
of geographical positions is desired, and
the hope is INDUCED that complete data,
so far as the appropriation will go, may be
secured of sunken rocks and soundings.
1t may be that the soundingS will have
to be made by either the coast survey
steamer Macarthur or the Gedney, or both.
The steamer Hassler is now out of service,
having been condemned and ordered to be
sold, and the Patterson is in need of ex-
tensive repairs. They are both on Puget
Sound. The repairs to the Patterson will
be made either at Seattle or Tacoma.
What makes the need of a survey of the
Alaskan coast more urgent than ever is
the discovery of mines there and the in
creased number of vessels that now visit
that Territory in consequence. If the re-
quest of Superintendent Duffield be
gra nted work will begin next spring.

BULL HUNTERS ALARMED
MERGED Duck-KilIers With Forbidden
Guns Are Being Arrested.

MERGED Duck-KilIers With Forbidden
Guns Are Being Arrested.
Deputy Game Commissioner Mcfarland
is making things lively for the bull
hunters" who with large bore shotguns
slaughter thousands of wild water fowl in
MERGED County. These fellows sneak be-
hind trained steers to the ponds in the open
plains, and with couple of Shots from
their death-dealers destroy hundreds of
duck and geese, which are sent to the
markets. The use of guns of a larger
gauge than No. 10 is prohibited by
the law, but these hunters carry on the
work of determination with 4 and 6 gauge
guns.
One of the fellows was recently arrested
with 6-gauge gun. A letter was recently
received from Deputy Mcfarland at Los
Banos, who wrote:
On Friday night I returned here and at
dark found number of bull hunters
ready to attend the trial of Cathey the next
day. Two of them sought me out and tried to
see how much insult 1 would stand, but soon
the 23d, George NJ. Cathey was tried before
Justice Cotteran and jury of ten men. The
trial resulted in hung jury, seven for convic-
ton and three for acquittal. The Justice was
disposed to dismiss the case but District Attor-
ney Ostrander objected and told him plainly
that he had not the right to dismiss. = = The
Qe1enudntS attorney mace q vigorous eHOrI 10
have the big gun turned over to the defendant,
but without success. The case has
been very exciting and every effort has been
made to "pull down" the Justice and the
District Attorney, but Mr. Ostrander gave the
bull hunters and their friends to understand
that he feared them not and would prosecute
every violation OF the game law.
MIR. Mcfarland added in conclusion that
he intended to prosecute two other hunters
who use No. and gauge guns. Their
names are Kennedy and Yearger.

SAYS HE DID NOT RUN
NJ. L. Hurley of Phoenix, Ariz., Denies
the Charges Made Against
Him.

In teiegraphic dispatch to yesterday
mornings CALL, Michael E. Hurley OF
Phoenix, Ariz., a member of the last Legis-
lature and Livestock Sanitary Commits
sioner of the Territory, was accused OF
having run away from his creditors, leav-
ing behind $42, 1000 OF debts. and it was
said he was hiding in San Francisco.
Since his arrival in this City last Satur-
day evening, Mr.. Hurley has been stop
ping at the Palace Hotel. In an interview
with CALL reporter Mr.. Hurley said
1.-THE statement that l ran away from
Phoenix with $1,000 in cash, leaving $42, 0OO
in debts and only $50, 900 assets is entirely
false. l came here on business connected
with my Arizona interests, openly and
aboveboard. My assets in Arizona exceed
my liabilities fully $4,000, but times are
very hard in the Territory at present and
it is difficult to realize ready cash. That
came away with $4,000 in cash, however, is
simply absurd, as | left with only enough
to pay the expenses of my trip. My
brother has full power of attorney to act
in my behalf over all my property in
Arizona

They Refuse to Return Reports to the
Railroad Commission.


Railroad Commission.
In the absence of Chairman La Rue,
owing to illness, Commissioner James j..
Stanton presided at the meeting OF the
Railroad Commissioners yesterday.
The principal matter discussed was the
attempted evasion on the part of the
steamship transportation companies OF the
State of the order of the board requesting
that they file report Of their financial
and general standing, their operations,
earnings, ETC., with the commission.
1t was finally decided to have prepared
special blanks which recalcitrant compa-
MES will be asked to fill and return to the
commission. Failure to do so will be con-
sidered defiance of the commission and
the matter will be placed in the hands of
Attorney General Fitzgerald for prosecu-
ton. when a test case will be made. Here
tofore none of the steamship companies
operat1ng within the State have made re-
ports to the Railroad Commission, and it
IS the purpose of the present board to fully
test its Jurisdiction relative to the water
transportation companies.
Adjournment was taken until the 18th
of December.

SLOAN'S NEW CLOTHES
They Lead to Suit in Court and Some
Exceedingly Interesting In
fereuceS.

. "The clothes looked as if they had been
in the gutter" was the expert opinion
passed upon a SIS suit OF clothes which
Tod Sloan, the jockey, had purchased and
worn but once. That once, however was on
Christmas eve.
The clothes were purchased from Henry
Steele, and not having been paid for them
Steele is suing. There was $50 suit, a $40
oyercoat and an $18 pair OF trousers. The
suit and the overcoat were the articles
which caused the criticism that they might
have been rolled in the gutter, and this
criticism eau sed the defendant some little
uneasiness, He had ordered the suit and
it was sent home Christmas eve, early
enough for him to get into 1T and sally
forth and prepare for the birthday which
was to follow.
The day after Christmas the clothes
came back to Steele for pressing" Sloan
testified, but the state they were in caused
the tailors to hold up their hands and
shake their heads even at this late day in
court. Sloan wanted to say the clothes
were poor fit, but the Steeles, father and
son, the cutter, the salesman, the bushel-
man, in fact the whole shop, if need be,
were willing to swear that fairer or more
perfect-fitting set OF garments never hung
upon the form OF man.
Then the witnesses for the defense came
to say the trousers bagged at the knees,
the elbows punched and the shoulders
creased; that the whole business was not
worth even the sos which had reluctantly
been paid on account. Judge Trout
thought otherwise, however, and Judgment
for $50, the balance due on the matchless
suit of clothes, was rendered in favor OF
the plaintiff.
The evidence did not go into detail as to
how the clothes got so dirty. 1t simply
showed that they were put on Christm as
eve and the day after Christmas they
looked as if they had been rolled in the
gutter.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-11-28

he exclaimed hurriedly, running through
the lawbook. Suddenly he dropped the
statutes and seized the telephone. He
called up Acknowledgement Fitzgerald,
to whom he explained the situation and
requested the States attorney TO hunt up
the law governing the case, so that the
expressman could be arrested and sent to
the City Prison.
Fifteen long minutes passed and at last
Mr.. Fitzgerald .teephoned: 'Mr. Emeric,
l think you had better turn the man loose.
The law prohibits buying and selling, but
not having deer meat in possession. The
word possession was in the old law, but
it was omitted in the new law. Good-day."
Commissioner Emeric expressed his
opinion of the law in such a manner as to
cause the telephone girl to tell him to hang
but to make his peace with the delayed
expressman, which Mr.. Elneric, in very
gentlemanly manner, did.
The expressman little later delivered
the deer at the residence of the Hon. Frank
McCoppin. 1t had been sent by one OF
Mr.. McCoppin's friends in Oregon.
This flaw in the law has not been gen.
orally known, but few hunters have
killed deer without regard to the law.
They well knew that unless those inter
ested in the preservation of game saw
them in the act of Staying deer a convic-
ton would be impossible. The prosecu-
ton would be obliged to prove that the
hunter actually killed the deer out of sea-
soma very difficult thing to prove-and
the hunter would not be obliged to prove
that he did not kill the animal. AS stated
by the Attorney General, the possession OF
deer meat under the old law was misde-
meanor. but by some accident this point
was omitted from the more recent enact
ment, However. the remembrance of the
old law has prevented many from killing
as freely as they would if the flaw had
been more generally known.

.EMER|C LEARNS THE Law,
The President of the Game Com.
mission Makes a Big
Mistake.
He Confscates Piece of VeniSon Sent
From Oregon to Frank
McCoppin.

Fish and Game Commissioner Emeric
learned little game law yesterday under
circumstances that caused him consider
able annoyance and embarrassment. Mr..
Emeric is always on the alert to detect and
prevent violations of the game law and to
punish the offenders.
While on his way home on a Geary-
street car he spied the hind legs of deer
sticking out of the back part of an express
wagon. In minute the Game Commits
sioner was on the sidewalk and stopped
the expressman, who was informed that
he was violating the statutes of the State
of California by having in his possession a
deer during the closed season. In vain did
the man protest that he was only an ex-
pressman hired to deliver packages, and
that he was not familiar with any law ex.
cept battery and fast driving over street.
crossings.
Mr. Emeric would not listen to any ex-
cuses, but turned the expressm an s team
over to the custody of the butler of the
Emeric household, while he went into the
house to get the statutes so as to satisfy the
expressman that the law was being
fiagrantly violated. He had the driver ac-
company him in order that he should not
escape.
81 ere it ISL exclaimed the Commits
sioner, producing the lawbook, while the
expressman trembled. Under section
626E of Division of the Penal Code, rela-
tive to the hide and meat of any deer. etc.,
the law says:
Every person who. in the State of California,
shall at any time buy, SELL offer for sale, the
hide or meat of any deer, elk, antelope or
mountain sheep, whether taken or killed in
the State of California or shipped into the State
from any other State or Territory, shall be
guilty of G misdemeanor.
81 did not do any of those things pro-
tested the expressman, who had been in
tentIy listening to the law as read by the
Commissioner. The latter was thunder
struck, for he realized that the man was
correct.
Maybe that is not the right section,' y
