TO TAKE THE FIE
OF CALIFORNIA.
A Scheme to Make West
ern Fruit-Packers
Suffer.
EASTERNERS INVOLVED.
Baltimore Packers to Label
Their Fruit as From This
State.
A FEW DISASTROUS BESTJLTS
Their Pians Discovered by an Eastern
Agent of the San Francisco
Fruit Exchange.
News has just been received by the San
Francisco Fruit Exchange of what would,
if authentic, be a gigantic fraud perpe
trated on the fruit packers and growers of
California.
The news is in the shape of a communi
cation sent to one ot the members of the
exefiange by an agent located in one of
the Middle Western States. The honesty
and integrity of the writer are vouched for
by the members of the San Francisco
Fruit Exchange. The names of the par
ties to this scneme are known to the offi
cers of the Fruit Exchange, but for certain
obvious reasons will not be given publicity
at this time.
In order to comprehend the wrong in
tended to be done California peaches by
the Eastern packers concerned in the af
fair it is necessary only to print the com
munication, which follows:
I learned to-day confidentially that the Bal
timore packers intend packing a large quan
tity of peaches this season under California
labels, both standards and seconds. One
broker has already taken orders for 4000
cases, subject to approval of samples and
prices, and the buyers have selected their la
bels.'- The cans are to be labeled in Baltimore
and shipped in plain cases, the packer furnish
ing a stencil and the cases to be branded after
arrival at destination.
From the indifference manifested by the job
bers in this State I am inclined to believe
that the Jobbers' Association here, at a meet
ing held, last month, agreed to refrain from
buying any canned fruit futures from Califor
nia. They all talk in the same vein, and say
they will buy the goods next spring or when
they need them, and that the California
packer must carry the goods.
Baltimore packers are also going to pack
sliced peaches and put them on the market so
as to afford both jobber and retailer a good
profit by selling to the consumer at 10 cents.
Secretary T. S. Taylor stated yesterday
that the- parties to the scheme had been
written to in regard to the matter and the
affair will be probed to the bottom. In
case they deny the report steps will be
taken at once to ascertain. its veracity. If
it is found to be true, the matter will be
given full publicity, and the Jaw will be
invoked to prevent the consummation of
the fraud.
"California Backers," said Secretary
Taylor, "generally bear, in mind the
amount of fruit disposed of the previous
year when engaged in packing. If the
Eastern, market should be flooded with
Eastern fruit, purporting to be grown in
California, the local packers would be un
able to get rid of much of their canned
fruit, and great financial damage would
result.
"Then again, the Eastern packers would
have no freight across the continent to
pay, and consequently could Bell their
fruit more cheaply. This would prevent
competition. Besides, for the same reason,
they could export fruit more cheaply than
we. This would be a vast injury to Cali
fornia packers as well as growers.
"If we can prove that this alleged
nefarious scheme exists there will oe
trouble in store for the parties con
cerned."
FORT MASON MURDER.
Preliminary Examination of Private
James Kelly Commenced Before
Judge Conlan.
The preliminary examination of Private
James Kelly of Battery E, Fifth Artillery,
charged with the murder of Private Jo
seph -E. Quinn at Fort Mason on Friday
night, July 10, was commenced before
Judge Conlan yesterday.
Four witnesses were examined and their
evidence was similar to that given at the
Coroner's inquest. Police Corporal George
W. Russell submitted a chart showing the
location of the murder. Private John P.
Jones testified to an altercation In which
Kelly and Quinn participated, and then
Kelly went Dehind the hose-reel house,
following Quinn up.
Privates John Wbalen and John O'Don
nell gave damaging testimony against
Kelly. The former testified that he heard
Quinn say that his jugular was cut and he
saw Kelly walking away. O'Donnell tes
tified that Quinn fell into his arms, saying
he haa been cut »nd he was done for. He
asked Qninn who bad cut him and Quinn
whispered "Kelly."
Further examination of tbe witnesses
will be held this afternoon.
MORE PROOF COMES IN.
Advertising Pays— Paya Promptly, Pays
Well— 'What One Ad. Did.
Last Monday morning the California
Furniture Company advertised a "Red-
Letter" sale, to commence that day. No
mention of it had been previously made,
but before noon tne big store commenced
to fill up, and in the atternoon there were
actually more people in the store than
could be waited on handily.
Of course "red-letter" days are pretty
well known to furniture buyers and full
stores are common enough, but it goes to
show that advertisements are read — and
more, that advertisement reaaers are buy
ers.
"Good furniture, quick prices," is the
"short and sweet" way the California Fur
niture Company tells about "red-letter"
days. These words mean more than you
would think from first reading.

PRECINCT REGISTRATION,
T. J. L. Smiley's Expert Opinion
of Its Theory and
Practice.
He Thinks It Will Result in Fraui.
Election Officers Who Are
Not Voters.
"The theory of precinct registration,"
saia T. J. L. Smiley, the Republican rep
resentative, "is all vety well, but the
practice is essentially different. There are
in this City upward of 900 election officers,
not more than one-fifth of them being
qualified electors. The precinct registra
tion this year will, I am sure, be produc
tive of extensive frauds.
"Why, only a small proportion of the
recently appointed inspectors, judges and
clerks of election haa a legal residence in
the City and County of San Francisco and
is entitled to vote. The greater the num
ber of precincts thp wider is the scope
given to fraud. Registrar Hinton is seem
ingly a fair-minded man, but he cannot
control the political consciences of his
numerous subordinates. They, neces
sarily will be influenced by personal and
partisan considerations. I think that all
registration should be conducted at the
City Hall. This, while it would not alto
gether prevent fraud, would greatly lessen
the chances for its perpetration.
"As I have said, many of the recently
appointed officers of election are not
voters, and besides many more of them
are not even residents of the precincts from
which they make their applications.
"There are several important constitu
tional amendments to be voted upon at
the coming election, such as woman's suf
frage, the exemption of taxation npon
mortgages, etc., and these should be given
a promin«nt place upon the ticket. Thus
far the necessary provisions for bringing
these topics before tbe attention of the
people and giving them their proper places
upon the ticket have not been made. The
registration this year is comparatively
heavy, but this is not necessarily any in
dication of fraud, which may be looked for
later in the precincts.
"It is surprising how many men are
anxious to earn the |40 allowed for service
on precinct boards of registration, and to
what length they will go in securing such
appointments. Political parasites and
men around town without any visible
means of support will file applications for
positions with the Registrar and swear
that they are electors of the City and
County of San Francisco and residents at
the Lick House or some ether fashionable
hotel, when in truth they are neither
one nor the other. I trust that by the ex
ercise of due vigilance we shall be
able to detect and prevent all election
frauds which may be attempted during
the coming campaign, and to secure to
the people a fair count and an honest ex
pression of the public sentiment."

NEWS FROM THE
OVERDUE FLEET,
Several Vessels Arrived
Safely in Port Yes
terday.
LIGHT WINDS DELAYED
The Abandoned British Ship
Gowanbank Sighted by the
Loch Linnhe.
WAS DESERTED MOHTHS AGO
Captain Anderson of the Oceania
Vance Has Been Superseded by
Captain Dart.
Several overdue ships arrived in port
yesterday, and all reported light baffling
winds. The first to get in was"the British
ship Loch Linnhe, 160 days from Ham-
burg. Only one accidentjhappened during
the voyaee. On March 25 last William
Brown, an A. 8., fell from the mizzen top
and fractured his skull. He lived for an
hour, but never regained consciousness.
Captain Cummings spoke quite a fleet of
ships. On April 8, in latitude 39.40 south,
longitude 53 west, the Brituu ship
Lathom, from Swansea for Ban Francisco,
was spoken. The Lathom has since been
reported as having put into Valparaiso for
water. She had on board the crew of the
British ship Gowanbank, which was
abandoned off the Horn. On- April 22, in
latitude 55.50 south, longitude 6J.30 west,
anfabandoned four-masted iron ship,
partially dismasted, was passed. This was
probably tbe Gowanbank. which has now
been drifting about the Horn for months.
On the same date that the abandoned
ship was passed, the ships Fulwood and
Gulf Stream were sighteu oft Staten
Island. They were making good weather
of it and shonld reach purty in safet.
The schooner Martha W. Tuft reached
port soon after the Loch Linnbe. She
was forty-eight days making the run from
Tres Marias, Mexico. About a fortnight
| ago tae vessel began to run out of pro
i visions and everybody was placed on short
i allowance. Fortunately the bark Albert
from Honolulu came along, and Captain
Griffiths supplied the Tuft with eight
days' supplies. Captain Olsen of the
schooner reports that it was nothing but
a drifting match from Tres Marias to San
Francisco.
The barkentine City of Papeete made an
unusually lone passage from Tahiti. She
was forty-five days making the run, and as
she is supposed to leave again on tbe Ist
of August with the French mail there will
be a scramble to unload and load her
i again. Captain Berude reports light
winds throughout. On July 4 dis vessel
sailed over what appeared to be the keel
of a vessel. It was about 100 feet long and
was bolted with four and six inch spikes.
This was in latitude 22.20 north, longitude
153 west. This is probably the keel that
was reported by one of the coasters a
couple of weeks ago.

Alaska excursion steamer Mexico for a

Th,e Mexico will leave at 9 :30 a. m. f rom

The barkentine Planter, which ran be
tween here and Honolulu until the South
ern Pacific's discrimination drove :he
trade to Portland, has been taken from her
retirement, and will load lumber at Eureka
for Sydney, N. 8. W.
The schooner Oceania Vance, now at
Honolulu, has a new .master. Captain
Dart, late of the schooner Sparrow, went
down to the islands to assume command,
but had to carry the matter to the con
sular courts before he could oust Captain
Anderson. The latter came back to San
Francisco on the steamer Australia, but
he has not so far gone near the owners.
The agent of the vessel says that since the
vessel sailed for Australia" they have never
heard from the master, and learned by the
last steamer, from outside sources, that he
had taken three women with him, as
passengers, from Bydney to Honolulu.
The managing owner would like to see
Anderson. •
Plumbers Protest.
Labor Commissioner Fitzgerald has gent a
letter to the Board of Health requesting that
the board make a few changes in the rules and
regulations, adopted April 15, 1896, referring
to the examination of persons desiring to be
come registered as master or journeymen
plumbers. One section provides that such ex
aminations shall be held on the first and third
Friday of each month at 3p. m. The objection
to this is that the hour will necessitate the ap
plicant losing half a day's work. The second
objection in the assessment of 50 cents npon
each person taking an examination. The Com
missioner's request was made at the instance
of the Plumbers' Union, who wish to have the
hour changed from 3:30 p. m. to 8 p. m. and
who do not think that any charge should be
inaae.
QUADE & CO, MAY SETTLE
The Firm Will Probably Pay
Sever ty-five Cents on
the Dollar.
If Some Agreement Is Not Reached
at Tc-Day's Conference Insolv
ency May Result.
There is a very fair probability that the
assignment made by A. Quade & Co., the
wholesale grocers, at 6.36 Market street,
for the benefit oi their creditors, will be
seltled soon in a way satisfactory both to
the firm and its creditors.
A committee of the Board of Trade re
ported that the liabilities amount to
| $20,000. Ti i assets, they found, would
I fully cover this amount. Quade & Co.
made a proposition to settle for 50 cents
on the dollar, but the creditors thought
that they mieht get more.
It was finally agreed that a proposition
should be made to Quade & Co. to settle
for 75 cents on the dollar. Tne result can
j not be known until after a conference to
be held to-day at 4 p. m.
If Quade & Co. agree to the proposition
of the creditors it is believed that the
affair will be settled to the satisfaction of
all in the near future, otherwise the firm
| will be obliged either to go into insolvency
I or hand the business over to the creditors
and permit the matter to wind up in
liquidation.

TEACHER OF LAW AT YALE
United States District Judge
Townsend Arrives From
the East.
Students Should Spend Two Years in
Class Work and One Tear
in Law Office.
Professor William H. Townsend of the
law department in Yale University, where
he has been teaching for the last fifteen
years, arrived at the Palace Hotel yester
day from the Yosemlte and the Grand
Canyon of the Colorado, two scenic won
ders that were largely responsible for
this, his first visit to the Far West.
Like almost every other member of the
faculty of New Haven, Professor Townsend
is teaching where he himself was taught
years before He was graduated from
Yale University with the class of '71, of
which, he says, Gordon Blanding, ths
attorney of this City, was also a member.
Pour years ago Professor Townsend was
appointed United States District Judge of
Connecticut, a position he still holds. For
fifteen years previous to bis judicial ap
pointment he was a practicing attorney
in New Haven and was for some time cor
poration council of that city. Corporation
law is his specialty.
Comparing Yale of '71 with Yale of '96
Professor Townsend says that in his day a
graduating class of 100 was considered
large, while now 800 men are graduated in
one year from the combined academic and
scientific departments of Yale, which
has a total enrollment of nearly 2500 stu
aents.
This year the law course has been in
creased from two years to three years.
Three years of successful study will be re
quired for the degree of LL.B., four years
for M.L., five years for D.C.L. (doctor of
common law — a degree first created by
Yale) and six years for LL.D. At present
