CAUSED MUCH INDIGNATION
Orphans Home Managers
and Dunn's Charges
WHAT MRS. STEPHENS SAYS
She Admits the Truth of the Pearl Grant
Whipping
Bat Says That the Superintendent Was Dis
missed for Permitting 1.-THE
Red Pepper Story

AS was to be expected, the charges OF
William L. Dunn against the management
of the Protestant Orphans Home, at the
corner of Yale and Alpine streets,
published in The HERALD yesterday morn
ing. caused quite a storm of Indignation
among the estmable ladies in charge of
that institution. Yesterday was the date
for the regular meeting of the board of
managers, and most of the members were
present, those in attendance being as fol-
lows: Mrs. Elmira L. Stephens, Mrs. j. S.
Chapman, Mrs. Hervey Lindley, Mrs. Ju-
Illus Brousseau, Mrs. W. G. Kerckhoff,
Mrs. A. E. Pomeroy, Mrs. Frank Gibson,
Mrs. Charles FORESTER, Mrs. r. H. Hewitt,
Mrs. J. Huber, Mrs. William Ferguson,
Mrs. DR.. Murphy. Mrs. h. M. PARCELS,
Mrs. b. Il. Coulter, Mrs. Charlotte Fitch,
Miss Rachel McManis and Mrs. j. A. Ben-
derson. Besides these ladies who were
present the members of the board are !:
Mrs, George Steckel, Mrs. Fred Teale,
Mrs. M. Hagan, Mrs. L. G. Barnard. Mrs.
Thomas Goss, Mrs. H. L. Baker, Mrs. N.
w. Stowell and B. +. Coulter.
The principal business was the discus
sion of the charges. and in the course of
the talk considerable feeling was manifest
ed. Some of the ladies seemed to lose
sight of the main issues, and appeared to
think that the charges were printed from
some hostility to the home, while others
thought that even ii there were some
grounds for the complaints, the matter
should have been laid before the board,
rather than to have been taken into the
newspapers, and all agreed, without any
investigation whatever, that the abuses
complained of we're greatly exaggerated.
All expressed themselves as perfectly
willing to have any sort OF an inve5tiga-
ton that might be desired.
The charges as made by Mr.. Dunn are
very plain and specific, names are given,
and the time and place when the abuses
complained of are set forth. Mr.. Dunn
says that whipping is resorted to for trivial
offenses, that girls as well as boys, are
fiogged upon their bare flesh; that children
are deprived of their meals for slight in
fractions of the rules, and the names of
the children are given. This being the case,
the mode of procedure for determining the
truth or falsiiy of the charges is plain. Let
the board of managers appoint COM
mittee to conduct the inves igation,
ask Mr.. Dunn to appear before
proofs and bring the children whom it is
alleged have been abused before the COM
mittee with their parents, and let them tell
what they know. Let the investigation he
public, to the end that the whole people
may know the truth. If Mr. Dunn has
misrepresepted or exaggerated the state of
affairs existing in the home this fact
should be shown up in justice to the man.
agement, and if any one has been giving
false testimony they should be exposed.
A full and impartial investigation is all
that is wanted and there is no reason why
it can not be had.

Prince Luigi was unable to attend the
luncheon, as he was suffering from the
effects of an accident which he met with at
Burlingame. The prince was taking part
in the games at that place, when he fell,
straining his shoulder, as a result of which
he has since been confined to his ship.
Yesterday morning q committee consist
ing of Messrs. A. VignoIo, James S. Cas-
truccio, S. Guasti, F. Bessalo of Los Angs-
les and Messrs. j. F. FuRasi and F. B. Girl
maldi of San francisco, met the distin-
guished visitors at the Arcade depot on the
arrival of the frs. train from San Pedro.
Commander Bertolini was accompanied by
Lieutenant L. de Fllipi and Luigi Resio,
sub.Lieutenants kinspeare and Zo-ach,
Chief Engineer Ricci and Surgeon Belli.
The visitors were taken in carriages for a
drive over the city, going to Westlake park,
out Adams and Figueroa streets and
through the southwestern part of the city,
after which they were driven through the
business section of the city, winding up at
the court house.
The party then went to the Maison

nent Italian Citizens to Pay Their Re-

The Chevalier Bertolini, commander of
the Italian cruiser Cristoforo Colombo,
and number of his officers, were the
guests of the Italian colony of this city yes
to-day. 1t has been eleven years since an
Italian warship has touched at any port in
Southern California, the last vessel of that
nationality to visit this port being the
cruiser Cristoforo Colombo, the name of
the visitor being the same as that of the
fine modern warship now in these waters.
While the vessel was at San Francisco an
invitation was sent to the officers to visit
Los Angeles, which was accepted by Capt.
Bertolini, and preparations were made by
the Italian colony to give the gentlemen a
reception, suitable to their rank. Addi-
tional interest attached to the visit of the
vessel from the fact that Prince Luigi of
Savoy was one Of the lieutenants on board,
to whom, as q member of the royal family
of Italy, it was desired to show special
honors.

IMPOUNDING THEORIES.
Can the Avalanche Of Mining Debris be
Stayed :?
George 0hleyer Expresses His Views
and Quotes From Reports of Gov
ernment Commissions.

Eds. "Record-Union": After an ad-
verse experience of fifteen years it
seems silly to offer the above question
for serious discussion. Yet it is being
offered, even beforesintelligent commit
tees of Congress just IS if il was new
and untried theory, and had not been
Overwhelmingly defeated by storms
and floods" within the past three
months.
If may be allowed a little space in
your valuable columns. 1 will endeavor
tc point out the utter fallacy Of the i'm
pounding theories, and I will offer in
evidence the much-referred-to but rare
Iy quoted reports of the engineers.
This lack of fairness is not charge
able to valley organs. as they at all
times have quoted and emphasized the
position of the engineers, both State and
Federal, as expressed in their reports.
IT is due to all parties to this contro-
Versy to note first who the two Govern
ment Commissions were previous to the
one that has recently been commits
stoned, and is presided over by Colonel
Charles r. Suter.
The commission appointed under
what is termed the Biggs bill, was COM
posed of Lieutenant-Colonel w H H.
Benyaurd, Major w H Heuer and
Major Thomas H. Handbury. The COM
mission appointed under the provisions
OF the Caminetti Act We're Colonel

". II. II. Benyaurd and w. H. Heuer.
1t viii be observed that majority of
either body was Identical hence the ex-
pressions Of one was practically the
iteration Of the other: therefore it will
only be necessary to refer to the reports
OF the Government Engineers when
when quoting their assertions.
A few weeks ago during ex-senator
Johnston's visit at the seat of Govern
ment, the efficiency of impounding dams
was under consideration, of which the
following was telegraphed to the San
Francisco Chronicle" and republished
in the Record Union.
State Senator Johnston called atten-
ton to the fact that the recent floods
had washed away ten of the dams con-
structed by the miners according to
Government plans, and he was inclined
to the opinion that the valley people
would not favor the construction Of any
more restraining works
Senator White and Mr. Ford did not
think that the dams which had been
washed away bore any relation to the
new works which it is desired the Gov
ernment shall erect. They thought that
the fate which had befallen the old
dams would serve a lesson TO the Gov
ernment Engineers so as to make them
more careful in drawing plans
Here, then, is a direct reflection on the
impounding ingenuity of a commission
that has all along been relied upon to
carry the monitor harmlessly through
the controversy. VIII the Government
guarantee the judgment Of the next
commission? The United States Cir
