Mrs. Richardson, president of the W. A.
2. A. of California, in a meeting at Metro
politan Temple Yesterday referred point
edly to the horrors in the northern section
of the City and was instrumental in the
appointment of a committee in that con-
| nection. She said:
One of the things that is stated in the Decla-
ration of Independence IS that mankind will
bear evils as long possible before rising
against them. We have had the blessing of
idence is such that aid is given only to those
who make some decided effort to help them
selves.

in his overruling providence, but he has given
US hands with which to work and he does not
expect us to sit idly and hold our hands.

when we have awakened to the fact that
there is work to do. The fullness of time has
come, and the patriots time is at hand. The
purpose for which was to have your atten-
ton this afternoon was with regard to the
terrible things that have happened to some of
our children in this fair City. know you are
determined that the wretches who perpetra ted
the frightful crimes shall be punished as they
deserve.
Mrs. Richardson then asked that the
meeting form a committee and draft reso-
lutions to assist in the prosecution of these
men.
She made decided stand in behalf of
the public schools, and declared that they
were not ali so corrupt as had been said,
that the men who denounce the public
school denounce the bulwark of our coun-
try.
In accordance with the suggestion of the
speaker a committee was formed to draft
suitable resolutions to show the sense of
the meeting regarding the recent inlquity
in this City and in support of the meeting
which was being held in the Central NJ E.
Church. The following were appointed:
D. NJ. Ross, C. A. Rabing. J. E. Ellington,
G. G. Walker, II. W. Bowman, G. D.

THE BARBARY COAST INFAMY
Resolutions Presented to Those in Au
thorlty-Another Mass.Meeting
Sunday.

Yesterday was a memorable day for San
Francisco. The spectacle was presented of
busy metropolis touched to It's mothers
heart by the sufferings and wrongs of a
few of its children; awakened to reallza-
ton of its responsibility for the future;
aroused to the highest indignation by the
abominable crimes of which Lane, Meyers,
Ratz, -Pardini, Hinshaw and others still at
large stand accused.
The most important event OF the day was
the mass-meeting of San Francisco mothers
held in Central Methodist Church, on Mis-
sion street, between Sixth and Seventh.
Yesterday was also an active day in
police circles. Chief Crowley was at his
desk betimes. ''No possible effort will be
spared by the department to bring these
men to justice" said he. 'There are more
of them than have yet been apprehended,
but we have strong hopes of being able to
reach them all"
1t is known that two other men in par
ticular are being sought for by Officer
Rourke, who has charge of the case. Yes
terday Rourke and Secretary Kane spent
q good part of the day on Telegraph Hill
searching for the Desmond girls, who are
wanted as witnesses against Lane. The
girls are being hidden somewhere in the
City. Lane went to them Immediately
upon being released on bail, and since
then no one has seen them.
Late last night an important bit of evil
dence came to light. Hinshaw sent a note
from the City Prison addressed to Mathilda
Brizzolara, a thirteen-year-old girl who
lives at 1217k Kearny street. The note
was promptly intercepted oy the police.
1t contained request for Mathilda to tell
nothing about Pauline, twenty -one-year-
old gh who, it is thought, has played the
role of procuress for Hinshaw and his ac-
completes.
Mathilda Brizzolara was taken in charge
by Rourke and will be held as a witness.
Meanwhile several officers are searching
for the girl Pauline.
The motherhood of San Francisco has
opened crusade against vice.
1t was proven conclusively yesterday
that the regnant grace of her sex has not
been lost in the new woman. The mother
heart ruled at the big mass-meeting at
Central Church.
Women who want the ballot and women
who do not, women who find the round of
domestic duties their most congenial oc-
cupation, and women 20 whom so-called
public life has a zest that nothing else can
supply, entered with one voice a protest,
the most earnest of their lives, against
social vice.
The recent exposure of the Barbary
Coast infamy had brought home to them
the need of protection of their own loved
ones. 1t made them look with fond,
frightened eyes upon their own little
daughters whose tender age would prove
no protection from such monsters as had
wrought havoc to innocent childhood in
other homes. And, if able to take more
general view of the situation, they realized
that following the unparalleled atrocities
of the murders in Emmanuel Church, these
crimes would fasten a stigma upon San
Francisco that only concerted action for

Ife accused has had fair trial. The Judge

The counsel was able and alert; the jury
candid, capable, conscientious, and the verdict

Ihey say let the slayer of these girls die the

demned man? What does governmental JUS

1t inficts nothing less than eternal punish
ment on the guilty wretch. Public sentiment,
public morals, public justice ali unite to take
away the life that to all eternity they can
never restore. Nor judge, nor jury, nor clam
orlng populace can ever call that dead man to
life again.
Though. thousand years should pass and
judge and jury and maddened populace could
live to see the end of the thousand years they
could never restore the life they are about TO
take away. The penalty they impose and in
met is eternal IN 1ts consequences. Can 1t be
possible that the people OF California are al
most unit; indeed, are unit in asserting
advocating the doctrine of eternal punish
ment that they clamor to have fellow man
cut off forever? Where is love? Where is
sympathy? Where has human kindness flown?
Where has human pity fed? Hang him!
Hang him! Let him hang! Let him die! This
is the demand, yea, the clamor of the people of
San Francisco, of California, of Chrstendom.

Williams die the death.

grant that from the black soil of these in
iquitous acts may spring the fruits of
righteousness" She prayed that the one
who was being SO bitterly prosecuted
might have strength to meet her cruel as
st.ilants, the reference being to Miss Mars
den.
Mrs. Luse said the assemblage was not
of the usual type of indignation meetings.
1t was for the purpose of 0evising plans
which would make such crimes as that of
which the public had been reading last
week impossible. 1t was designed to ar.
range that the women should assist in the
administration of justice In this and SINH
lar cases.
1t was thought incongruous that girls
detained in prison, often merely as wit
nesses, should be in charge of men stepped
in sin, in the sense Of being familiar with
all its phases. Think what it is best that
a federation of the women's societies shall
do, to assist in reaching the ends of JUS
tice," she concluded. and recommended
tl. arrangements be made for mothers
meetings and classes in moral reform for
children.
Mrs. Sturtevant Peet, president of the
Stare w. G. T. o., was the first speaker.
She had thought when reading the Friday
morning papers that the Breckinridges
are not confined to Kentucky. The meet
ing had been called In His Name. 1t was
not to give publicity to revolving crimes,
| nor that women might hear each other
talk, but that an effort be made to secure
the betterment of social conditions. The
social purity movement was but thirteen
years old, but it had made wonderful
progress. She said: 1.-THE women stand
shuddering on the brink of the river of
social vice flowing through the land" and
quoted IN reference to false delicacy the
woman who pronounced it "pureness that
had its root in impurity."
1.-The social vice is not confined to the
slums," continued Mrs. Peet. at climbs
marble stairs, throws its shadows across
palaces. 1t is ofttimes coroneteG and may
even be found in the palaces of kings.
Women must be prepared to tear into
| shreds the arguments that claim the evil
is a necessity. They must demand that
| the bridegroom come to the altar as clean
as the bride. Among the reasons why
! girls fall is that there is not enough con-
| fidence with parents, too much familiarity
with young men, improper diet, impure
literature and pictures, low theaters and
lack of proper training of boys as well as
| girls. Almost a Man and Confidence
Bestowed are books that all boys should
read"
In conclusion she said the ballot in the
hands of women would be great help tc
the race, and that it was notable fact
that the first bill introduced by woman
member of the Colorado Legislature wa.
in the interests of purity.
''f the world is what we make it," she
said, ''let US make it pure.''

Mrs. r. L. w. Davis, president of the
board of directors of the Girls Training

which had awakened motherhood to the
dangers lurking about the path of her dar-

Howard-street Methodist Church was
more than comfortably filled, for the sub

all expected to hear a scathing arraign-

And they were not disappointed.
! Once during the address, when the rev.

terms the Barbary Coast outrages, the
vast congregation burst into applause,
which for the moment drowned the voice
OF the speaker. Among the things DR..
