lee to submit an TemiZed statement of
its receipts and disbursements and turn
in to the state treasury the full amount
collected, an appropriation 10 follow to
make any deficiency that may properly
exist and to pay any reasonable attor-
neys' fees. 1t is held by many that the
employment of an attorney Ill these
three cases at a cost Of over $500 was
piece of reckless extravaganza not at all
in keeping with the loud professions OF
economy which the committee has been
making. This amount is more than a
years salary OF the attorney general,
whose duty il clearly is TO prosecute
these cases, and the amount OF the line,
The attorney general has been repre-
sentcd as an able lawyer, and he has
a saIaried assistant, either of whom
would certainly be capable of handling
such 4 case, and it has never been
made clear why the state should pay
large bonus to an unofficial attorney
while two Of its own Salarled othcers
had ample time and talent TO prosecute
its claims.
That there was deliberate purpose
to withhold the details OF the Foley
transaction and
Hgisiead the Public
is manifest from the following routine
statement given out for publication:
State Auditor Dunn yesterday re-
ceved a check for S6.U07. 90 from I. r.
Foley, of Altkin, who was sued by the
state pine land committee for treSpaSS
in cutting timber without authority OF
law from section 16, township 81, range
2S, Aitkin county. The amount of the
Judgment obtained by the commission
was 81, 7,673 60. The expenses Of the
commission were $467.20, and those OF
the attorneys i'll the case were Sl90.SO.
In addition to this tie attorneys fees
were 81 900. There is still due from
Mir. Foley [33.62.
As matter of fact Auditor Dunn did
not receive Mr.. FOley's check for &c.
OJ7GO. Mr.. Foley's check was for
$500, as stated above. and it was de-
livered to Warner, Richardson q Law
renee, as stated, Zee. %. 1894. Mr..
Foley did not, as the published states
ment has it. pay $1,000 and the expenses,
costs and attorneys fees in the case. He
simply paid in TO the attorneys Of the
committee $500, and the committee. or
its attorneys, deducted 81, ,666 from that
amount, taking thirty Eight days to
figure out the plausible statement given
to the public. The figures given are
correct and the fOOtingS are correct, but
the person who had no other knowledge
of the transaction than that furnished
by the published statement would be
further from the actual truth than II the
figures themselves had been dOctored.
The figures did not lie; they simply
served the purpose of concealIng the
truth.

bodied in the Jones. Vest, Mcpherson.
Smith and Sherman bills were gone
ever, and there was some indications
toward the close of the meeting that it
might be possible 10 secure a majority
vote on modification of the Jones bill.
There was 10 vote on any proposition,
however. The proceedings of the after
noon session were based upon bill
which had been prepared by Senator
Voorhees,. This bill provided simply
for the issuance of short time certIfi-
Gates, which were TO be issued for the
purpose of making good the reserve and
OF meeting the revenue deficiency, but
when the afternoon session opened he
had added a clause providing for the
free coinage of silver. There was
motion TO strike out the silver provi-
sion, which was lost on a tie vote of to

be true, the very young steelheads would not
be distinguish able from the young rainbow
trout, and I do not know single structural
character of any kind by which the two may
be separated.
Yesterday Deputy Babcock was informed
by one of the fish-dealers that the lawyer
to whom the matter had been referred had
not given his opinion, but that if he found
that the law prohibits the sale OF steel
heads on the grounds that they are trout
they will not contest the matter. Under
such circumstances the seat of war will De
changed from this City to Humboldt
County, where the fishermen do not at
present fear conviction. But even then
it would be OF no advantage to the dealers
of this City, as the fish taken in the north
will be only for home consumption.
The Commissioners have decided that II
the law as it stands is violated In the
northern counties they will send up sew
eral university professors to testify as ex-
pert witnesses.
The decision of this question means con-
siderable to the people of this City. The
steelhead in the running season IS plentl-
full and cheap. This fish runs in from the
sea and back again between December and
April, the period for which under the law
all trout are protected. The supply of this
City comes principally from the Eel, Gar
cia and Noyo rivers in Humboldt and Men
cino counties, where they are taken IN
nets by the hundreds.

spector Ben Davis, and he kills aged, worn
out and diseased cows and decrepit horses
with impunity All of this meat is sold In
the San Francisco markets.
He had five carcasses hung up in his
house yesterday afternoon. The thin
layer of fat covering the masses of bone
was o. an intense yellow, that betokened
the extreme age of the animals slaugh-
tered. The meat of one carcass had the
purplish-blue color of horse meat. Mr..
O'Neilll declared it was stag, though
and as there were five horned heads in a
corner it is highly probable he told the
truth.
A man named Levy and Chinaman

and bought the lot, driving off in wagon

give Christmas-box to Edward f. Searles
and local studios are fairly scintilating
with inspirations for putting the greatest
amount of art into the. smallest possible
space, so that the mbination Christmas
box may be thing Of beauty and Joy
forever.
1t was Horace Platt who started the ball
rolling by suggesting to some members of
the Art Institute that Edward f. Searles
had been doing all the giving in local art
circles, and on the principle of it being
more blessed to give than to receive, it
might be profitable and pleasing for the
Art Institute to bestow Christmas offer
ing upon Mr.. Searles. The result OF this
suggestion is shown in the following circu
lar letter which began it's tour of the
studios yesterday:
1t has been suggested by Horace Plat and
approved by mem bers of the board OF direct
ors that an invitation be extended TO the
artists, members of the association, to each
contribute sketch to be presented to Edward
F. Searles, size of sketch not larger than 12x16
inches and not smaller than 6X9 inches, in
oil, water color, pastel and ink

said, land | want this conduct stopped

Harris has done anything improper, but"
and he looked hard at the wife of tine
defendant and her daughter, Mrs. Edith
Green, who have all along been sitting
beside Howell-'I have seen other persons
nodding and smiling in this court in
manner not commendable, and if / notice
any more such conduct as has been going
on here lately will be compelled to pun
ish the offenders"
Quite number of new witnesses took
the stand. The evidence of Eschb bach, SAT-
ferhill Ives, Stein and Laid was used to
trace a counterfeit S. bill, but Ira B. Laid,
on cross-examination, was not sure
whether it was a greenback or a treasury
note.
There was some interesting testimony
from A. S. Loewi. Modesto saloon.

have passed a So bill during game Of

occasion Howell is said to have tried to
pass 81 coin on Loewi, but that he re-
fused it. ]. K. Love, G. R. Graves and
Richard Broughton corroborated this.
Other witnesses to show that counterfeit
coin had been passed by the defendant,
and afterward identified, were George Mar

Sheriffs Ben iamn and Cassiday.

This place has been in the hands OF SOLO.
mon Levy for the past six years. He said
yesterday that he had never killed horses,
as there was not enough in it since the
authorities interfered with the sale of the
carcasses His trade was in calves and
cows alone.
"But O'Neill, across the lot, will buy
your horses,' he said. "He has just
started a slaughter-house, and will pay you
81 or maybe more"
"Are there no others near here who buy
old horses ?" was asked.

again and receive the signatures of many
more local artists, who say that they will
only be too glad to have an opportunity of
showing their appreciation Of all that Ed
ward f. Searles has done for the Art
Institute.
Every one is preparing to set to work on
the little pictures at once, in order that
they may be finished by the 10Th inst,
when Horace Plat will bear them off in
triumph to New Y ork and present them to
Mr.. Searles probably on Christmas day.
In order to stimulate the imaginations
OF the artists J. Davis, the librarian of the
Art Institute, who is taking the circular to
the artists, bears along with him few
choice gems from a collection of sketches
which William Alvord has just presented
to the Art Institute. They are little paint
lngs and drawings just about the size re-
CURED for the Searles pictures, but they
possess historic as we'll as intrinsic value.
Iwenty-three years ago there existed in
San francisco an organization known as
the Graphic Club, which included among
its members most of the resident artists,
as well as William Alvord. president of
the Art Association, and B. 2. Avery, the
secretary. Once week the members OF
the Graphic Club met together. each bring
ing sketch, and the president OF the
evening was presented with the collection.
When William Alvord's turn came to pre-
side, extra pains were taken with the
sketches. He has kept them twenty-three
years. and as they now possess historic
value he has presented them TO the Art
Institute.
Among the Alvord collection is bril-
liant little oil painting of San Francisco
Bay, by Tom Hill. Marriott, who has laid
down his brush now, is represented by an
Indian on horseback; Julian Brooks, who
was the idol of the student of still life at
the institute twenty.three years ago, has
painting OF three fishes, in which every
scale Is infinitely represented. There is an
Italian landscape by Virgil Williams, and
W. Hahn's picture of the landing of a
group OF Chinese is an interesting memo
rial OF earlier days. Among the pencil
sketches Cox, who has made name now
as painter of brownies, has an early
effort, representing young girl too late
for school. There is pretty landscape by
Julian Xix, now famous painter in New
jersey, and nearly all the other San Fran
cisco artists of twenty three years ago are
represented in the Alvord collection.
AS Wilbur A. Reaser said yesterday
when speaking of the Christmas tribute to
be presented to Mr.. Searles, Twenty
three years hence these pictures will have
become as much part Of the history Of
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-12-06

the line in San Mateo County and the In
spector can't touch your cows"
These COWS will undoubtedly be slaugh-
tered. Since the Chinaman was afraid OF
the seizure OF the meat they must be unht
for consump tion either through disease or
old age. Yet :hey will go to Chinatown
and be sold largely to select coterle OF
white butchers and cheap restaurants, who
buy their meat OF Chinese.
O'Neill talked meat" to his Monaghan
customer, who took him to one side.
Finally he came forward laughing. When
asked where the Joke was O'NeiH said:
"Oh, our friend mere was talking about a
joke we played on him some time ago.
We had lot of old COWS hung up and he
said they were no good and he would not
give cent and half. pound for EN-.
Then we showed him good, fat horse we
had Just killed, and passed it off on him
for stag and he paid cents for it"
Notwithstanding this, Mr.. O'Neill de-
clared that he did not sell any horse meat
for human consumption, either IN emma
town or anywhere else. In fact, from his
account, it was hard to see where he would
get any profit after calling for the horse,
killing and skinning it, hauling the car
cass to town and paying 81 80 for it In the
beginning: ..r,
are only worth 81 70 now. l take the meat
in to Bailey, in Chinatown. lie has Ter
tilizer there and he uses the carcasses.
So. you see, don't make much.
But don't the Chinese buy it?"
No" he said. They're afraid it would
be seized. The entire carcass goes for fer
tiliZer."
Around Mr.. O'Neills big corral wan
dered few skeleton-like animals. They
were apparently in good health, but seemed
to have hardly an ounce of fat in their
boay carcasses. These animals were wait
ing for the next Killing time. which will be
to. day or tomorrow.
One of Mr.. O'Neili's neighbors is John
Bracken. He keeps saloon on San Jose
avenue.
.'O'Neill used to be the superintendent
of slaughter house in Butchertown," he
said. HE has been here now only about a
month. think he's the only one in the
neighborhood who slaughters horses.
81 understand that he kills dozen OF
more each week. It's funny they're not
seized though. He takes EN- to town in
broad daylight, but nobody seems to care
Of course he has them carefully covered
up but should think the Meat Inspect
ors would want to know what he had for 6
load.
He took in six horses yesterday. He
had three-horse team to haul them, and
he didn't try to conceal anything"
