WATCHMEN NOT WATCHED
No Track of Their Engagements
Kept in the Sheriffs
Office.
Peculiar State of Affairs Disclosed by
an Order in the Howard
Black Case.

A peculiar state of affairs which prevails
in the Sheriff's Office came to light IN
Judge Slack's court yesterday. An order
to show cause why Sheriff Whelan should
not pay to the creditors of Howard Black
money realized from a sale of certain as
sets was before the court. The Sheriff
claimed that he was entitled TO $12 for four
days keepers fees under attachment, $45
for fifteen days watchman's fees in in
solvency, $50 attorneys fees, and re-
ceiver's fees at certain percentage on the
amount collected.
Under the new fee bill the Sheriff is en-
titled to but 81 day for watcnmen's and
keepers fees, which he acknowledges.
The attorney for the creditors, Leon
Samuels, objected. however, to payment
OF the watchman's fees at all, alleging that
the place was locked up all the time and
no Waterman was needed or on hand.
Deputy Simon OF the Sheriff's office
claimed the Waterman was there, but
when asked who he was and on what
dates could not tell, and it was developed
that no timebook is kept on the doings of
the various watchmen and keepers en-
ployed in attachment and insolvency
cases. Judge Slack was surprised, and
advised Simon to keep such book.
The argument as to why attorneys fees
should be paid was very weak, and in all
probability that item will be disallowed
when the case comes mp this morning.

TO WORK FOR PROGRESS
The Panhandle and Ashbury
Heights Clubs Organized
Last Evening.
Over 500 Persons Present at the First
Meeting-Business of the
Future.

The Panhandle and Ashbury Heights
Improvement Club was formally organ
lied ct 1870 Page street last evening, with
DR.. q. d. Salfield as president. It is COM
posed of the old Stanyan street and Ash
bury Heights Improvement clubs, which
have accomplished so much good for their
districts in the past, and the new organl-
cation of about 300 members begins its ex-
istence and its work under the most favor
able auspices.
The complete roll of officers is as fol-
lows: President, G. D. Salfeld; vice-presi-
dent D. J. O'Leary; secretary, E. L. Head;
treasurer, R. D. Cranston. The executive
committee are: Judge ]. R. Aitken, A. J.
Mcfarland and E. r. Knight.
The fact that 500 persons, residents of
the vicinity, were present demonstrates
the interest taken in the new club. Its
jurisdiction extends over the territory
lying between Baker street and First
avenue and from Fulton street south OF
the panhandle to Eighteenth.
Among the business taken up at the
first meeting of the club was the follow
ing resolutions, strongly disprov1ng OF the
proposed removal of the Pesthouse to the
Almshouse tract:
WHEREAS, On several occasions an attempt
has been made to remove the Pesthouse from
its present unfit location to the Almshouse
Tract; and whereas, it has come to our notice
that strong combination is at present active
" at work to induce the Board of Supervisors
to remove said Pesthouse 10 the Almshouse
Tract; and whereas, the Almshouse Tract
being almost the geographical center OF THIS
City and County; and whereas, Lake
Honda, from which helf of this City re-
ceives its water supply, is located in the closest
possible proximity TO said Almshouse Tract
and whereas, the thickly populated districts
known as Ashbury Heights, Sunset Heights
Stanyan street Heights and the Panhandle
districts are Immediately east of said Aims
winds from said site; and whereas, Golden Gate
Park andSthe avenue, the pleasure grounds OF
the people, are also in close proximity; and
whereas, said Almshouse Tract can only be
reached by the frequented avenues which lead
to said Golden Gate Park; therefore,
Resolved, That we, the members of the Pam
handle and Ashbury Heights Improvement
test against the removal of the Pesthouse to
said Almshouse Tract, and that we look upon
this threatened or contemplated removal as
not only extremely unWlse, but criminally
vicious and that We will discountenance and
resist the same by all means in our power, and
further
Resolved, That the president of this club ap-
upon the Health and Police Committee OF the
Honorable the Board of Supervisors and upon
every individual member of said board. and
ais upon the Honorable the Board of Health
to enter verbal protest against such move; and
further
Rescued, That copy of this preamble and of
these resolutions be addressed to the Honor
able the Board of Health and to the Honorable
the Board of Supervisors of this City and

Countv. and to his Honor the Mayor'and to
every individual member of said boards.
A resolution was adopted appointing
committee of five to petition the Board OF
Supervisors and Park Commissioner re-
harding the lighting of Golden Gate Park
and the adjoining streets and drives with
electric lamps of 1000 candlepower, en-
poles not over 400 feet apart.

clubs of the locality have been so far able
to overcome the protests of the owners
thereof against retaining the tract from
its state of nature.
a resolution was also adopted calling
Postmaster McCoppin's attention to the
fact that the district was sadly in need of
a branch postoffice, or at least better de-
livery and collection of the mails, espe-
ciaIly the night collection.
On motion of Mr.. Clement 1t was or
dered that the matter OF having the streets
of the district marked for identification
with names on the street lamps or on cor
ners of buildings be attended to-

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER

the leaders of the sound-money cause IN
the State are thoroughly in earnest and
disposed to take hold OF the campaign Tor
principle with vigor and resolution. Ii
was the consensus of opinion that dis
tributing agencies for the dissemination
OF campaign literature should be secured
IN the form of clubs or single volunteers.
An immense amount of literature will be
distributed through the mails and in the
ordinary ways. Permanent headquarters
will be secured at once and systematic
work will quickly follow the Indianapolis
convention. 1t was remarked that the
purpose of the movement was not to elect
any body, but to defeat Bryan and the
anarch istic purposes of those who have
gained control of the party.
I'VE don't care whether our friends vote
for Mckinley or go fishing" said Attorney
William Thomas.
The committee will be called together
again within a week.

GRAND JURY IN SESSION
An Adjournment Was Taken
Until the 18th of Sep
TENDER.
Waiting to See the Accusation
Against the Solid Seven
Tested.

The Grand Jury held a session yester-
day afternoon but did not consider new
business. 1t was expected yesterday that
definite announcement would be made of
the time for final adjournment, but de-
cision was reached to adjourn until
September Is.
1t seems that Judge Slack is not anxious
to impanel another Grand Jury at the
present time, and so has not manifested a
desire for the present jury to adjourn
sine die. Again, the case pending in
Judge Seawel's court against the seven
accused Supervisors is regarded as highly
important. 1t has been deemed wise by
members of the jury to prolong the ses-
sions until some questions of law relatin g
to the accusation are settled. 1t is posi-
BILE that further action may be taken by
the Grand Jury.
Peter McGlade, Chief Deputy in the
Registrars office, and William Harring-
ton of the registration department were
called as witnesses yesterday, but the sub
ject on which they were called went over
until the next meeting. The Grand Jury
is not advised of any fraudulent registra-
ton beyond the listing of few suffers
whose names have been Cancelled.
On Third street, two blocks south of
Market Mr.. Harrington reported twenty
six suffers. When citations were sent
out only eight responded. He fancies
that tramps begging in that locality and
getting enough money for nights lodg-
ing availed themselves of the opportunity
of precinct registration in that neigh Dor
hood. Perhaps the next day they regis
tered in some clearinghouse precinct north
OF Market street.
The books of the Edison Light and
Power Company were opened to the ex-
pert OF the Grand Jury. So far as can be
ascertained no entries were found indi-
eating cash disbursements to procure ia
vors from the seven Supervisors The
cash transactions of the corporation rep
resent vast volume of business.

SAVED FROM SLAVERY.
Chief Crowley Protects Katshu Yano,
Japanese Girl, From Her
Prosecutors,

Katshu Yano, a Japanese girl, was
brought from Fresno yesterday morning
by Detective Silvey on warrant charging
her with petty larceny. The case was
called in Judged oachimsen's court in the
afternoon and was dismissed.
The complaining witness was M. Ishii,
118 Prospect place, and he alleged that the
girl, with whom he had been living for
four years, had stolen a $40 gold piece
from him and some letters.
Chief Crowley investigated the case and
decided to protect the girl. Her story was
that Ishii had been living off her earn
ings, when she learned about six weeks
ago that he was negotiating with some
Chinese to sell her for $500. She fed to
Fresno, leaving all her clothing except
what she wore. In Fresno she made liv-
ing by teaching pupils to play on the sam
sin and other Japanese instruments, and
wanted to be good girl.
The Chief was satisfied that Ishii had
trumped up the charge against the girl to
regain possession of her, and she will be
detained in the matron's quarters in the
City Prison till she canffnd home.
