Annual Meeting After Hear
ing Report on Finances

James Rolph Jr. was elected presf-
dent of the merchants exchange at the
annual meeting held yesterday. H.
&C. Chesebrough was made vice presi-
dent, and l. F. Moulton of the Bank of
California was elected treasurer. T. c.
Friedlander was reelected to the office
of secretary and H. c. Bunker chief
Inspector c. r. Splivalo is the new
-four inspector.
c. S. Laumeister, the retiring presi-
dent, read his report to the members.
The report shows the rent receipts for
the last year amounted to $218,746.61.
The exchange building at the present
time is more than S5 per cent occupied.
and indications point to all offices being
taken in short time. Not only the
accrued indebtedness but the current
interest has been paid. 1t had been
estimated that $125,000 would have to
be borrowed to make good the loss In
reconstruction. in addition to the money
received from fire insurance. Laumeis-
ter announced that the amount had
been reduced to $4,000 and possibly
would be less.
Laumeister urged the members to
vote for the state bond issue of
So 100000 and $1,000,000 for the i'm
provement of the water front and
wharves, and, in discussing the present
administration of the city government,
said:
"I can not close this report without
calling upon our members to. take an
interest in the administration of our
municipality. We must not forget
that in such action lies our chance tS
shape our city's future. San Fran
cisco is destined to become one of the
great cities of the union. It's location,
its resources, it's harbor, it's climate, it's
beauty will make it not only one of
the greatest cities of the union but one
of the great cities Of the world, pro-
vided it's citizens learn to govern it
wisely and well. Our duty demands
that we earnestly strive to place in
charge of it's destiny and future only
those who will strive, with energy,
with honesty and with honor, to
fasten more firmly in its place the
crown that has long since proclaimed
our city Queen of the Pacific"

CUSTODIAN OF BANK
VAULTS LOCATED
F. Bonnet Cables French-Amer=
ican Institution His Arrival
in France

According to a cablegram received by
French American bank, yesterday from
F. Bonnet former custodian of the safe
deposit vaults at that institution, the
latter did not arrive in France until
yesterday and it was only then that
he heard about the charges made by
Henri Cailleaud shortly after his de-
parture for France.
When Cailleaud first made the claim
that $4,000 had been taken from his
safe deposit box Detectives David Muir
ply and Bell began a search for the
man in charge of the vaults. It was
learned that Bonnet had left for France
on vacation couple of days before
the money was reported missing, and
the New York authorities were asked
to prevent his departure from that city
for France The telegram arrived too
late, however, as Bonnet had sailed be-
fore the New York authorities had re-
ceiyed the wire. The passenger lists
of all steamers sailing for France were
searched but Bonnet's name was not
found on any of them.
According to a statement made by
Charles Carpy, president of the bank,
yesterday Bonnet went direct to Liver
pool and from there took the train for
his own country. The cablegram re-
ceived by the officers of the bank yes
terday stated that Bonnet had Just ar
rived in Paris and had heard Of the
charges against the bank officials and
himself. He inquired what he could do
to assist the officers
Vice President Legallet said yester-
day: This more than confirms our
first statement that Bonnet would re-
turn If he knew there was anv sus-
picion against him; he will probably
come back in q few weeks and the
whole matter will be cleared UP. We
still think he had nothing to do with
the disappearance of any money and
we still have our doubts as to whether
,Cailleaud lost any money. He should
have appeared before the board of di-
rectors at their meeting last Tuesday,
but he failed to come. We will hold
another meeting next Tuesday, when
he has promised to bring his books.
and at that time we will know exactly
how matters stand" Cailleaud refuses
to talk. He says that when the proper
time comes he will make his showing.

CHARGES FATHER WITH
NEGLECT OF CHILDREN
Mother Totters Home From
Hospital and Has Husband

Two cases of child neglect which
are of so fiagrant character as to re-
quire special mention have been en-
gaging the attention of the Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.
One of these is that OF Edward Cum
nings, driver of a brewery wagon and
the father of four children, whom he is
said to neglect. The mother has been
in the hospital suffering from over
work and privations, but when she
found out that her babies were per
and ragged, and that neither they nor
the premises had received the slightest
attention for weeks, she tottered back
to her miserable dwelling with the aid
of a cane and had the father arrested.
Secretary M. J.. White asserts that
the state of the cottage was such that
even the officers of the law avoided
entering it and that the children were

SUPERIOR COURT JUDGE
AUCTIONS OFF SALOON
Jurist Succeeds in Getting $1,000
More for Place Than Re-
ceiyer Was Offered

Presiding Judge Sturtevant of the
superior court. acting the part of an
auctioneer in his court yesterday, In
creased the price bid for the saloon at
Powell and O'Farrell streets $1,000 over
the best amount that the receiver was
offered. A week ago Judge Buck re-
fused to confirm the sale of the saloon
for $4,000, bid by Frank Dunn, and
thus it fell to Judge Sturtevant, pre-
siding in Judge Bucks court yesterday,
to conduct an auction sale. Dunn re-
peated his former offer of $4,000, but
found a competitor in eX-Supervisor
Theodore Lunstedt. who bid $4,000. The
judge took them along to $4,000, offered
by Dunn. At this point a third bidder,
Daniel w. Deane. entered the contest,
Offering $4,000 Dunn and Lunstedt
declined further competition and the
saloon was knocked down to Deane.
The saloon was owned In partnership
by j. j. Horner and John E. Hogan,
who, however, were unable to agree,
and went to law, Horner suing, for an
accounting. The result was that the
saloon was ordered sold by the court.

ROBBED OF PURSE
ON CAR PLATFORM
Charles Winters, Deputy Asses
sor, Held Up by Thugs
on Trolley
Bold Thieves Choke and Relieve
Man of Sl20 in Broad
Daylight

Charles Winters, for 18 years chief
deputy in the assessors Office, was set
upon by thugs in streetcar yesterday
afternoon and in full view of a half
hundred passengers was robbed of a
purse containing S120. After robbing
Winters the thugs jumped from the car
and escaped.
The robbery occurred at Market and
Church streets on an outbound Castro
street car. Winters boarded the car at
Eighth and Market streets and was
standing on the back platform when
attacked by the thugs.
He carried his money in a hip pocket
and fearful lest the pocket be picked
he kept his coat closely buttoned. AT
Church street large sized, well
dressed man jostled Winters. When
Winters failed to leave his wallet un-
guarded the rufffan placed his elbow
against the aged mans throat and held
him in that position
Winters seized the arm and a slight
scuff1e ensued. At the same time a
man standing behind Winters seized the
purse and jumped off the car. Winters
cried out that he had been robbed and
started in pursuit of the man who had
taken his purse. Before the car could
be stopped, however, the thief, young
man, had disappeared down Church
street Three or more other men who
had assisted in jostling Winters on the
car jumped off Immediately after their
companion, and although pointed out
to and chased by Policeman Cook for
two blocks, escaped.
Winters had just received his month
ly pay, walking direct from the city
hall to the point where he boarded the
car.

CABRERA KEEPS UP
TYRANNICAL RULE
President of Guatemala flinders
Report of True Conditions
by Censorship
Passengers on Steamer Newport
Declare Citizens Who Lose
Favor Disappear at Night

That there has been no dimunition
in the tyrannical and bloody rule of
President Cabrera of Guatemala is the
news brought by the passen gers of the
steamer Newport, which arrived from
Panama yesterday morning. The num-
Der of those so unfortunate as to fall
under the suspicion of the cruel ruler,
far from being exaggerated, have been
largely minimized. Tales of men disap-
pearing in the night without trace of
their whereabouts, and with no hint as
to their fate, other than the belief that
they have met with the disfavor of Ca
brera, continue to be whispered in
Guatemalan ports.
So extensive and watchful is the CEN
sorship of mails exercised by the gov
ernment, however, that little news tell
ing the true condition of affairs reaches
the outside world. Residents in the
country are afraid of the enmity OF the
president and do not dare to speak of
their sufferings or the wrongs inflicted
on those who are dear to them.
Two brothers, wealthy planters. Julio
and Salvador Herrera, disappeared re-
Gently. Julio, the younger brother, has
an American wife Although she is torn
with anxiety that her husband and his
brother may be suffering untold miser-
les, or possibly have been murdered
long ago, she is afraid to communicate
her suspicious to her friends. She has
relatives in France, mother and a sis
ter, and regularly writes that she is
happy and has everything that money
can buy.
One of the passengers on the New
port, who feared to give his name be-
cause of the harm that might be done
his interests in Guatemala, said yester-
day that he received a letter while in
port, which was handed to him opened
and marked o. K. 1t was merely a
friendly epistle. Similar stories are re-
peated by all those who come from the
disturbed country.
According to reports heard by pas
sengers on the Newport, bands Of ban
didos are creating havoc in the towns
and villages of the Mexican frontier,
rifiing stores, running away with cat
tie and leaving a trail of bloodshed be-
hind them. IT was reported that the
government had dispatched soldiers to
intercept these bands. Seven have been
heard Of

MASCOT GOAT ROUTS
COAST ARTILLERYMEN
Colonel BiIP' DisSoIves Dress
Parade Formation at
PreSidiO

Marching along in all the panoply of
full dress, on their way to the Pre-
sidio parade ground, the One Hun
dred and F'ifty-eighth coast artil-
lery was completely routed by one
small spotted goat yesterday afternoon.
Colonel BILL the victor in the engage
ment, was occupying his usual position
on the veranda of the quarters of Com
pany B of the hospital corps, of which
he is the petted mascot. when the artil-
lerymen in gorgeous array came along.
Bills ire was aroused by the colors
they wore, and his irritation was so
great that he did not stop to reflect
that the very glory of their raiment
proclaimed that they were on a peace
full errand. With one buglelike snort
the Colonel" charged, and. helpless
without their big guns, the soldiers
gave way before the terrific onslaught.
The action was short but spirited, and
when the smoke of battle cleared away
the beautiful dress formation had dis
solved into something perilously like a
rout. The intrepid goat had gone en-
tirely through the company and was
preparing to pick off the stragglers in
the rear when he was persuaded to con-
sent to cessation of hostilities bv the
men of his own company. 1t is prob
able that Colonel Bill" will be confine ed
TO his quarters for some time on iac-
count or his serious breach of military
etiquette.
