The Murderer Howls and
Raves in Court Before
Judge Murphy.
BROUGHT TO BE SENTENCED.
His Absent Attorney Is Cited for
Contempt— Sentence De
ferred.
There was a dramatic scene in Judge
Murphy'scourt yeiterday.where the Sheriff
had been ordered to produce the body of
William Fredericks, that he might be re-

sentenced for th* murder of Cashier Her- •
rick.
Fredericks, during the last few months j
of his incarceration in San Quentin State '
prison, has been giving evidences of in
sanity which hare been regarded by the ■
authorities with some skepticism. His i
transfer to San Francisco was marked with
violent ebullitions in the line of insane ;
ravings and the same line was notably ac- \
centuated in the bearing of the prisoner on ,
his production in court yesterday.
Owing to the non-appearance of his at
torney, Fredericks was not sentenced yes
terday.
Captain Eager and the doctor stationed
at ban Quentin prison were to have ap
peared to testify as to his condition, but
arrived in court'after the matter had been
continued.
Fredericks, although he had not eaten
regularly at San Quentin, ate supper on
Tuesday night in the County Jail and
breakfaVt yesterday morning. He walked
to the van, but was strapped and closely
watched on his conveyance to the City
Hall. A little before 10 o'clock he was
carried into Judge Murphy's courtroom j
and placed in a chair. During his transit j
to the courtroom he struggled and howled, j
Promptly at 10 o'clock Judire Murphy i
took his seat on the bench. Every place j
in the courtroom had been secured and
the approaches were crowded with a curi- {
ousniob. Special policemen guarded the '
rioors. and Bailiff Rock was kept busy I
in maintaining order.
Murderer Fredericks in plain clothes,
torn and disheveled by his straggle?, j
Closely strapped and gnarded by Deputy \
Sheriffs Reilley, Gibney and four others, '
was carried to a chair immediately facing
tac bench, and In accordance with the re- ,
quirements of the law his straps were re- •
moved.
Judge Murphy asked if the prisoner j
was represented by counsel, and ordered
Attorney George E. Colwell summoned. |
Hitherto the prisoner had been compara- ■
tively quiet, but now he commenced to
struggle violently and to shout inco
r.erently. "My uniform, my uniform,"
he raved; "take it off, take it off, boys;
they have stolen my uniform."' inter- i
spersed at regular intervals with Ftento- ;
nan beliowingg. The noise was deafen
ing, and the court looked to Assistant Dis- j
trict Attorney Hosmer. He assured his j
Honor that a "proper notification had been i
mailed to the prisoner's counsel, George j
E. Colwell, and the Judge ordered the
bailiff to again summon the attorney.
The effort was in vain, as was also a third
summons. . . _ ,
Then Judge Murphy ordered that Col
well be cited to appear on Friday morning
at 10 o'clock to show cause why he should
not be punished for contempt, and that the
resentencing of the prisoner stand over
until the same time.
The deputy sheriffs made a dive at
Fredericks to restrap him, but he raised
himself shrieking from the chair and en
deavored to bang his head on the table
before him. Books and a weighty pitcher
were removed out of harm's way, and the
prisoner was safely bound and carried from
the courtroom, face downward, through
the excited throng of sightseers to the
prison van below.
It was stated that Attorney Colwell has
been in Fresno for the past two weeks and
that the official notification of the resen
tencing had failed to reach him.
FOSS GETS FOUR YEARS,
Hia Attorneys Made a Strong Flea and
Secured Him a Light .
Sentence.
Henry L. Foss, the opium-smuggler and
self-confessed counterfeiter of Chinese cer
tificates, was sentenced in the United
fctates District Court yesterday. On the
charge of counterfeiting he got fourteen
months and a fine of $1000: on the other
charge Judge Hawley gave him two years
and ten months and a fine of $250.
With credits, Foss ought to get out in
about three years. He is now about 50
years of age and the term in the County
Jailwill tell heavily upon him.
When called up for sentence the prisoner
displayed no siens of emotion. J. T>. Rior
dan and Major Stonehili. his attorneys,
made eloquent pleas on his behalf, setting
forth that he had a wife and an aged
mother depending on him. Judge Haw
ley took those facts into consideration arid
imposed a light sentence.
Foss was for years employed on the
Oceanic dock as freight clerk "arid proved
himself an efficient officer. He took ad
vantage of his position, however, and
smuggled large quantities of opium from
\ ictoria. B. C, to San Francisco, and
thence by steamer and sailing vessels to
Hawaii. His first venture into the counter
feiting of Chinese certificates was disas
trous and the result was four years in the
penetentiary.
The prisoner was granted a four days'
stay in the County Jail at Alameda in
order to arrange his personal affairs.
"CATTLE-KING" WHITE.
Adjudged Guilty of Contempt, He Was
Sentenced to Jail and Fined Fl^e
Hundred Dollar*.
George E. White, the Mendocino "cattle
king, ! yesterday incurred the wrath of the
Superior Court, and was ordered com
mitted to the County Jail for contempt,
while a fine was'irnposed upon him.
The sentence was in connection with the
notorious divorce suit of White vs. White,
in which the court issued a decree that
no lease should be entered into in re
gard to the community property of the
parties in Mendocino County. Neverthe
less, it was shown that John S. Robrbongh
had fakeh a lease from George E. White of
some of the property involved.
Oa this showing Rohrbough was ordered
committed for contempt of court to five
days' imprisonment in the County Jail
and to pay a fine of $500.
George " E. White was also piven the
same punishment yesterday, and as soon
as the order is signed he will be sought for
by the Sheriff;

THE SAX FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, MAY 16, 1895.
DURRANT'S SHAVEN FACE
It Is Quite Apparent* That
He Cannot Be Easily
Identified.
THE FACE AT THE WICKET.
The Prisoner, Apparently Happy,
Smiles Answers to AH
Questions.
William Henry Theodore Dufrant is
passing his time pleasantly at the County
Jail, and does not seem to chafe under
confinement as much as most prisoners
do, especially those who are not accus
tomed to being arrested. When seen yes
terday Durrant was all smiles, but he was
not very communicative.
The remarks made concerning his act
in having his hair cut short and his mus
tache shaved off seemed to amuse the al
leged murderer of Blanche Laraont and
Minnie Williams. The fact that reporters
have noticed the great change in his ap
pearance evidently pleased and amused
the decidedly odd young man.
Durrant's face as it appeared at the wicket
of his cell yesterday was a study in many
ways. A physiognomist could have told
.but little from it, and but few of bis old
friends could have recognized him. When
DURRANT A» HE NOW APPEARS WITHOUT HIS- MUSTACHE.
[Sketched by a "Call" artist yesterday.] ■ '■■ • ■.
he was first arrested Durrant' s heavy
black hair and peculiarly dark mustache
were striking features. Now that the
mass of hair is gone and his lip is clean
shaven Durrant has certainly the appear
i ance of a younger and more corpulent
j man. He looks like an actor. He
1 spends nearly all his time in reading and
I bathes frequently to refresh himself. He
j still declares that he expects to be frne
I soon, and he is therefore keeping up his
; medical studies. He aays he aims to be a
I great surgeon.
When asked if prison life did not agree
' with him Durrant. smiled cheerfully and
I said he might be getting a little fatter, but
that he would rather be outside and grow
I thin. Durrant keeps his cell very neatly
arranged. Two or three bouquets of flow
ers vrc always in bis room. The shelves
are neatly decorated with fringed news
papers, and everytning has an air of tidi
ness about it. Durrant is evidently taking
things philosophically.
England's Southern Bird Visitor.
AMediterranean bird, the beccafico, com
mon on the southern shores of Italy and
Spain, Sicily and Malta, in the Grecian
Islands and on the northern shores of
Africa, but until recent years quite un
known in the British Isles, now regularly
migrates to the neighborhood of Brighton,
where a large orchard of fig trees was
planted some time ago. and in these trees
the bird greatly delignts.
These little creatures discovered in some
way the fact of this plantation of their
favorite trees, and have ever since come
over to share the spoil. How did they
hear the news? It is said that in this case
the nightingales were the news distribu
tors, telling the southern birds the story
of the English tigs, and showing them the
way over. However this may be these
little birds from the warm shores of the
Mediterranean seem liJiely to become es
tablished as naturalized emierants to the
shores of this country.— Saturday Journal.
SAW THE VALLEY ALSO.
H. E. Huntingdon and En
gineer Hood Had an Eye
on the New Line.
Now the Agents Are About to Close
an Agreement Against
Cutting Rates,
Chief Engineer Hood and H. E. Hunt
ngtoh of the Southern Pacific Company
lave returned from a tour of inspection oi
;he railway in Southern California and the
?an Joaquin Valley.
They are reticent about their trip, which
sn its face had no apparent significance,
irat since their return enough has been di
rulged to indicate the real importance of
this "inspection."
It was announced that some changes
would be made at Los Angeles and there
ibouts in station arrangements, and also
that some extensions of tracks and other
improvements had been considered on the
2rdund. That, of course, was a matter of
little interest to the public— at least, the
people of Northern or Central California,
and it was quickly discussed and acted on.
Incidentally the San Joaquin Valley
around Fresno and Visalia was looked
over very quietly and while the Valley
railroad directors were in one town dis
cussing the competing line with the citi
zens the Southern Pacific party was occu
pied with other questions in another city.
The territory between Bakersfield and
Fresno was gone over thoroughly. Noth
ing was said about it^ however, but the
Valley road people may hear something
from the inspection when least expected.
A delegation from the local Passenger
Agents' Association called on D. W.
Hitchcock of the Union Pacific Company
yesterday with the purpose of inducing
him to sign the agents' ironclad agreement
before to-day, the date set for closing the
document against signatures. Agent
Hitchcock informed them that he would
sign the document provided that two ob
jectionable clauses were removed.
A meeting of the city agents will be held
this morning in the Palace Hotel, and Mr.
Hitchcock, the only non-member, will be
present. Little or nothing is expected to
come of the session, as the agents have
virtually concluded to wait until May 24,
on which day they will have a report from
the Chicago meeting of the reorganized
Western Passenger Association. By that
time, too, they will have the agreement
signed Tuesday in Chicago by their supe
rior officers, and the only thing left for
them is to sign it. The local agreement
may then become void by resolution.
The whole thing means the end, for an
indefinite period, of competition in pas
senger rates.

IT MUST BE A MONARCHY
So Says the New York Even
ing Post's Correspondent
of Hawaii.
THE REPUBLIC IS IN DANGER.
Complications That Ho Thinks Will
Soon Cause Its Down-
Julius A. Palmer, who went down to
the Hawaiian Islands to investigate the
state of affairs there as special correspond
ent of the New York Evening Post, some
three months ago, arrived here yesterday
on the Australia, lie had been there once
before— during the troubles after the revo
lution, for the Boston Transcript, and is
very familiar with all the affairs in the
islands. He believes that there will soon
be a crisis there, and that the end can only
be the restoration of the monarchical form
of Government. :
Yesterday at the California Hotel, in
speaking of the matter, he said : "There
never will be harmony until the mon
archy is restored in Princess Kaiulani, and
thatVonld make peace at once."
In giving his reasons for this belief he
said: "There are three main points of
danger to the Government. The first is
that Secretary Gresham has decided that
Bowles is not an American citizen and
tha^. Great Britain has decided that Rickard
and Walker are British subjects.
"If these decisions had been exactly the
reverse they would have been exactly
suited to the minds of the ruling powers.
That would have given them nearly all
status as American citizens through their
claim of dual citizenship. The Rickard
and Walker decision embroils them with
Great Britain because they were condemned
by a court-martiai that practically had" no
status and was formed contrary to the pro
visions of their constitution, and so the
Government has simply given out that the
claim of Great Britain Will be contested.
"The immediate and desired effect will
be delay.; They are holding on hoping
that something will turn tip and are tem
porizing only. Great Britain has made no
demand for the men. The trouble with
the Government is that having once tried
the men they cannot try them asain, and
if they do release them on account of the
illegality of the commission that tried
them they must release all Who were tried
from the Queen down. If they admit
Great Britain's contention that" Rickard
and Walker are British subjects then
Great Britain will examine into the legal
ity of the commission.
"The greatest fear of the Hawaiian Gov
ernment is Japan, and they do not scruple
to say so. They are making arrangements
to get in 5000" Chinese coolies and send
away as many Japanese. The Govern
ment, when the Japanese coolies came in,
gave an understanding that if Japan would
supply them with coolies they would cm
j ploy them. Now Japan will probably hold
I that this understanding is being violated.
"The third danger to the Government
party is in themselves. The Democracy or
I American League is taking umbrage at the
! new importation of Chinese.
| "Now that the natives are in anyway favor
ing annexation or allegiance to the present
Government is utterly false. Five or six a
week probably swear allegiance and there
I are five or six thousand of them in the
island of Hawaii alone.
"The financial condition is also one of
the things that will help to bring in a
crisis. May 1 the Government adver
tised publicly that no bills would be paid
I except in three and six months' credit.
"Loyalty of the natives to the monarchy
was never as strong as it is now, and it was
the basis of the union of all parties in past
years, and there will never be harmony un
til that monarchy is restored in Princess
Kaulani, and that would make peace at
•The iniDression is given by the drilling
of United States marines to the lower ele
ments and natives that the oligarchy is
sustained as it was instituted, by the naval
I power of the United States.
"It is on that that the Government prac
tically relies should there be rioting on
shore". I don't mean to say that this Gov
ernment is doing anything of the sort, but
tnat impression is given to the Chinese,
Japanese and more ignorant of the natives.
••Minister Thurstou is supposed to ad
vocate a general ( amnesty, so as to disarm
external criticism and insure against for
eign intervention.
"Nothing would be more foolish than
for this Government to have anything to
do with the islands politically, but every
advantage could be gained by allowing all
the merchandise going between the
I islands and America to De free of duty.
"It is Hard to predict what the future
j will be, but all down there are convinced
that the present state of things cannot
last. I think a limited monarchy with
I Kaiulani is the only solution."
ANNEXATION~IMPOSSIBLE.
Yolney T. Ashford Says That the Pres
ent Government Must Fall and
Monarchy Is Probable.
Colonel Yolney V. Ashford arrived from
Hawaii yesterday. He was once in com-:
I mand of the. royal forces in the Hawaiian
j Islands, and later became a strong annex
i ationist. Finally he disagreed with the
I Government and was arrested for com
plicity in the late attempt at revoiution,
was tried and sentenced by the commis
sion to a year's imprisonment and to pay a
His health failed when in prison, and he
was released on condition tnat he would
leave the country.
He is no longer an annexationist, but a
I believer in the re-establishment of a
I monarchical form of Government in the
islands, although he claims that he was
wrongfully convicted of participation in
the late uprising.
He said: "There is a perfect reign of
\ terror in the islands. Informers are every
where. People do not dare to speak in
their own houses. There is everywhere a
feeling of uncertainty, doubt and impend
ing danger and ruin.
"Those who favored annexation have
made-up their minds that it is impossible.
The missionaries, as we call most of the
political party in power, have claimed to
be in favor of annexation, but have never
been really. The real annexationists mis
trust them now.
"As to the future? Well, annexation is
an impossibility and all are about agreed
on that. Thurston has gone back, and it
is publicly said that he is going to propose
the restoration of a monarchy, with
I Kaiulani on the throne.
"A republic seems an impossibility, such
a l\rge part of the population are incapable
of governing themselves. As long as this
so-called republic can pay armed men to
keep down rebellion it will last and no
longer. What they are talking of now and
want first is some sort of protectorate ol
the United States. .
"They are afraid of Japan ; and then they
want some protection against any other
foreign interference. Then, of "course.
i what is next wanted is a monarchy.
"The natives are not at all discouraged by
J the failure of the iast movement. They
would gladly make another, attempt. 1
' am not a royalist in principle, but undei
I all the conditions existing down there 1
think it is the only thing. A monarch}
I would unite all the natives and be re ;
spected by all foreign powers."
NO MOISTEY, NO PBIEJTOS.
Suicide of an Old Han Near the
Park.
An old man committed suicide at the
SUnyan street entrance to Golden Gate
Park, about 9 o'clock last night, by shoot
ing himself in the right temple.
Police Officer .Light heard the report and
found the man lying dead on the grass.
The body was taken into the Morgue a
little before midnight.
His appearance indicated that at one
time he might have been fairly prosper
ous. In the directory his address is given
as 503 Lvon street, and his bnsiness live
stock. He is supposed to have been a
dealer in horses.
He was dressed in a suit of dark blue
material, with a light overcoat and a black
soft felt hat.
His suicide must have been coolly and
deliberately planned, as he left a" note,
written with an indelible pencil, giving the
reasons for his self-destruction as follows :
lam suffering so badly that I don't know
how to stand it. The trouble seems to be
about my heart and I can stand it no longer.
I am. a sad wreck, without money or friends,
and the only thing I regret is the potter's field.
If I had means to have my body cremated, I
could die in peaoe. .
I have enough dne. me to make myself even
with the. world, but I have been beaten by
them all and must suffer tne consequences.

Fenelon and Rousseau.
Possibly Fenelon has owed his great
reputation as much to ais famous quarrel
with Bossnet, as to the authorship of
"Telemachus" or to his own personal
merits. It pleased the skeptical writers of
the eighteenth century to regard Fenelon
as in some measure an encyclopedist, who
had been born a century too soon. He
was the angel of sweetness and patience,
while in the same legend Bo3suet was the
fanatical, overbearing ecclesiastic, who, in
the interest of the church, would have
burned Fenelon and every other liberal
spirit.
The view was unjust, both to Fenelon
and Bossuet, for the first was not the un
complaining man this legend makes him
out to be, nor was the other cruel and un
scrupulous in any unworthy sense. The
"Eagle of Meaux" was exclusively a
churchman, but he was a good man ac
cording to his own rather narrow concep
tion of righteousness. The regard which
the eishteenth century had for Fenelon is
illustrated in a curious way by a saying of
Rousseau. ''If Fenelon were living," said
a friend to him, "you would be orthodox."
"Ah," replied Jean Jacques, "I would be
his lackey, in the hope that I might come
to be his valet." — Macmillan's Magazine.
It is said that the mother of Charles Dar
win bad a decided taste for all branches of
natural history.
