CLAIMS HE WAS ROBBED
J. D. Gillelen Says That His Roll Was
Taken From Him
Peter White, Saloon Keeper, and Thomas
B. Wallace Arrested Charged With
Grand Larceny

Fete White, the proprietor of a saloon
at the corner of San Fernando and FL
mira streets, and Thomas B. Wallace, an
employee of the Southern Pacific freight
house, residing on Elmira street, were ar
rested yesterday morning on a charge of
grand larceny. The complaining witness
was j. ID. Gillelen, who is we'll connected
in the city but who, according to his
story, has been unusually unfortunate.
Gillelen claims that on the Goth instant
he was under the influence of liquor,
greatly to his mental Generalization
In this condition he visited the saloon of
White and there became suddenly very
weak. In order to give him an opportu-
nifty to rest White took him across the
road to lodging house kept by one Will
lam Wallace, at the old Harmony Garden
Here Gillelen rested awhile, and he
claims that while he was getting needed
sleep White and Wallace robbed him of
three one hundred dollar bills, two TWEEN
ties, one ten and $3.50 in coin, all told
$359.S0
Gillelen failed to report the robbery to
the police at the time of it's occurrence,
but proceeded to act as his own detective.
Becoming satisfied that White and Wal
lace had probably robbed him. he secured
warrant for their arrest and yesterday 1T
was served upon both parties by Deputy
Constable Carpenter.
Unfortunately the warrant was made
out Tor the wrong Wallace. ]. B. Wallace

and 1t so happens that he also lives on

the keeper of the lodging house. So J.
b. Wallace was arrested. He had never
seen Gillelen and at the time of the al
legged robbery was home sick. He was
very indignant at his arrest and Prose-
cutting Attorney James becoming satisfied
that he was an innocent man consented
to the reduction of his bail from $4,000 to
$1,000.
Whites bond was fixed at $4,000 and he
gave it with Hugh Smith, Chris Hckson
and William Stewardson as bondsmen.
The same parties also qualified as sureties
for j. b. Wallace. White insists that he
had nothing to do with Gilleen's missing
money. He admits that he, with the
Wallace who keeps the Harmony Garden
lodging house, put him to bed and that
he exhibited money at that time. He
claims that when Gillelen got UP after his
drunken sleep he returned to his saloon
and still exhibited the money he had
shown before his sleep. After taking
several drinks White states that Gillelen
left the saloon and that he still had his
money then. What happened to him
after that he does not know. On March
9TH Gillelen was fined Sc in the police
court for drunkenness.
Both White and Thomas B. Wallace will
have their preliminary examination Fri
day at 8 80 a. m. Wallace will be dis
charged for it is very apparent that he is
innocent.

room or the rooms connected Herewith.
A heated discussion followed and the
motion received no second.
Mr.. Pirtle, still undismayed, asked that
the chief be instructed to enforce the fol-
lowing old rule of former board adopted
in October, 1893:
No entrance shall be maintained for use
OF patrons except those entering directly
into the room where the saloon bar is
located. No liquors shall be sold or drank
III any booth, side room, back room.
upper or lower room upon the premises
or connected by use thereto except those
where the interior is in plain view OF the
saloon bar. No persons other than the
proprietor or his employees shall be al
lowed III the saloon during the time the
law requires the saloons to be closed.
Any violation Of this rule will involve
the revocation of the permit of license for
such saloons, and the Chief of Police is
hereby notified to instruct each ana every
police officer to report in writing any vio-
latlon OF these rules. Also, to have
printed copies of all rules of the commits
sion governing saloons, with the penalty
added thereto, delivered to each and every
saloon keeper or his barkeeper, the same
to take effect on and after Move mber LIST,
1898, and any previous rules conflicting
with the above are hereby repealed
The resolution was not pressed, and Mr..
Barham said that he had lived in Los
Angeles for many years and he thought it
poor policy late in the meeting to dis
pose of the Sunday closing question.
Upon his suggestion the matter was laid
over until the next meeting.

EVIDENCE NOT SUFFICIENT
Ex-Councilman Smiths Bartender Did Not
Sell Liquor on Sunday

Harry Johnson, who is employed as bar
keeper in the saloon of ex-Councilman
Hugh Smith at the corner of First and
Los Angeles Streets was acquitted in the
Police Court yesterday afternoon. john
son was charged with violating the Sun
day closing ordinance in that he kept
open the establishment of his employer
after II o clock Saturday evening, and did
then and there sell or give away intox-
icatlng liquor.
Justice Morrison listened very carefully
to the evidence that was presented against
johnson and decided that it was not sutfi-
cient to warrant a conviction. The arrest
was made by Officer Baker who testified
that when he entered the saloon about
O'Clock Sunday morning. there was beer
upon the bar in glasses. He could not
swear though that it was being sold or
given away This was fatal to conviction
and the defendant was therefore dis
charged.

LABOR ORGANIZED IN RUSSIA
Trades UnioDism Has . Firm Hold In me
Domain OF the Gar.

Trades UnioDism Has . Firm Hold In the
Domain OF the Gar.
So little is known about conditions
of life in Russia that the fact of the
existence of labor organizations on a
large scale has generally been over
looked. These associations or artels
form an important part of the in
dustrial organization and are almost
entirely free from government control.
1t is doubtless to this that SO little
has been said about them. Some refer
enoe. however, was made to them in q
report issued by the British foreign of
fee in 1892, and now a fuller account
is given in q report made by Mr..
Carnegie of the British embassy in St.
Petersburg. From this report it is
learned that the artel system
had it's origin as far back as
the tenth century. when organize
tions were effected for hunting, fish
ing and trading purposes From these
early beginnings the system has been
so far extended that there are few oc-
equations or trades in Russia in which
artels are not or have not been formed.
There are artels of carpenters, paint
ers, blacksmiths. masons, porters. bar.
gees, walters, etc; artels of wOrkmen
are employed in making pottery,
cheese, percussion caps. boots, gun
carriares and ropes, and there are
even artels of beggars, travelling mu-
sicians and horse stealers. They are.
it seems, generally guided by the old
customs and regulations which have
been handed down for generations.
The whole system is based upon the
following fundamental principles: o.
Each member of the association has an
equal share in the duty and work; (2)
each member receives an equal share
of the profits, and 90 all the members
are mutually responsible for the work
and conduct of each. AS a rule. wom-
en- are not admitted to the ar
tells of the men, but they have a num-
Der of their own, such as that engaged
in the cultivation of tobacco in the
province of Tchernigoff. There is an
other artel composed of women en-
gagged in loading ships with grain at
Archangel, the members speaking q
kind of polyglot language which can
be understood by the captains of any
foreign ships visiting that port
Mr.. Carnegie thinks that the artel
system undoubtedly leads to better
work, because it is for the interest of
the members that all perform their full
share and are punctual and sober. The
whole system seems to be very similar
to the MEDIEVAL guilds, therein differ
ing from the labor unions of to-day in
that more matters of detail are attend
ed to. Trades unions occupy them
selves with many matters, but in
dividualism has grown to so great an
extent that the multitudipous rules of
the guilds are not tolerated-Buffalo
