MONUMENT TO
EMPEROR NORTON.
Old Snifraatv's ret Hobby Re
pealed iii His. Caps.
Hew- Hr. Haidap Fought the Opinion cf the
PubJic Concerning a Site—Be
jso'.ed Advice.
' He leaned against the building in a de
jected attitude with au 1-am-weary-of-this
cruel-world-look in his bleary eyes, and
when he had exhausted his scant stock of
matches in a futile endeavor to ignite the
ancient "stump" that was gingerly held in
his dirty fingers, ho fell in a brown study
with his gaze directed toward the saloon
door on the opposite side ol the street The
. old white hat, a relic of the Greeley cam
paign, was still jauntily perched on the
side of his bead, but the position of his tile
was the sole reminder of the days when he
had been one of the " bloods" of the town.
His clothes would not have brought a dol
lar in a' " hand-me-down" shop, nnd his
..boots were long past the possibility of re
pair. The heavy and matted beard con
cealed the shirt that had ceased acquaint
ance with the laundry, and he was inno
cent of tie or collar. He was in short noth
ing more or less than an illustration of
what a collapse in. mining stocks and the
little brown jug had done for many others.
"Ah! my friend, how are you?" he said
effusively, as I ' sauntered along. ' "It's
been many day since I've seen you.'and
you're looking fresher and younger than
ever. A match, please, if you have one."
1 did not think it necessary to stir up bis
memory by saying I bad heard him make
the same remark the previous day, and
handed him a Inciter. Tha remnant of the
imported Boss-alley article failed to light,
and with the second match 1 presented a
cigar received from a policeman in the block
below.
"Ah! thanks," he murmured, biting off
the t ip of the weed/, "I am deeply grateful
yes, deeply grateful. I assure you— for there
is but little gratitude on this earth. 1 have
recently learned that fact to my sorrow."
'Well, what has been your latest unfor
tunate experience?" -
TALKING WAS DRY WOEK.
"It's rather a lengthy story, and I feel a
bit tired this afternoon," mused the broken
down stock-dealer, furtively eying the cof
fee sign across the way, "and" —
"Oh, well, let mc hear it in comfort," said
1, taking the- hint, and, when »he had dis
posed of a cup of Mocha, he said:
" You know Snifman, of course you
know old Snifman. the millionaire who
has so many peculiar crotchets that some
people believe him to be a little affected
in the upper story. Well, ono night about
two months ago 1 was passing one of the
clubs when out staggered old Snifman, to
use a common expression, as full as a goat.
He shook hands with me cordially aud re
quested my company as far as . bis home, a
lew blocks distant. On the way. to his
residence he became quite confidential, ex
plaining some of his plans lor the future
and giving me an insight iuto a few of the
big deals then on hand. Suddenly he
turned on me and said, 'Do you know
whom I consider to be one of San Fran
cisco's greatest characters?'
"L answered I had not the faintest idea
and after a pause he exclaimed, between
hiccoughs, he believed Emperor Norton to
be one of early Frisco's most prominent
personages. 1 was amused at the answer,
but was rather startled at him saying, 'and
I mean to perpetuate his memory 03- erect
ing a monument in his nonor. I have
drawn up all the plans and accepted a de
sign, but the only thing that troubles-ins is
to find a suitable location in this city in
which to erect it.'
. "Snifman spoke of the matter so earn
estly that I concluded the monument busi
ness was not a drunken freak and I offered
assistance. He said tie wouid lie harpy to
receive suggestions, and 1 promised to
visit him next 'day. Well, the following
day I called on the old fellow and he eyed
me suspiciously as 1 entered the door, and
when 1 broached the monument matter he
testily said an important engagement pre
vented him from discussing the question at
present. To make a long story short, I
called at his office several times, but he » as
Tiiwajs tot' busy to (jive me an audience.-
ADVICE WANTED.
"Finally a scheme struck me. I would
solicit advice from the community at large
as to where the monument could be best
placed, submit it to Snifman, and probably
receive a handsome reward for my volun
teered services. I set about to nut the
scheme in execution ; ordered a lew thou
sand blanks from a printer, and requested
that tbe expense be charged to the million
aire. Here is one of the blanks: 0 „

The Arrival of -Ifiy-n.ne Oar-Loads
Deiuorallzes the Market*.
Nearly all of . the c< emission-bouses
down town looked like exclusive | potato
shops yesterday. Everybo lv was buying,
selling and talking potatoes}'-' A " the .-.'
able space on the sidcvalP and theJrooJ J
in the wai houses. were filled -with gre
piles of p •tatoes.* 5 The excitement wit
caused by the arrival of ii:'tj— nine car-loads
from the East yesterday and a consequent
break in tha prices. Thjo Eastern ship
men* included every thiu; from some line
Wisconsin ilurbanks to the commonest
trash from Kansas.
The general average, However, was very '
good and they were received in fine con
dition. The market foi' potatoes of every
grade was affected and prices declined very
rapidly. The heavier holders of the im
mense shipment made every effort to stop
the break and late iv the Nay Mime of them
stated that they did not' pro pose to sell at
any such slaugi.ter ; figures as were being
accepted by the smaller ".chants, and
would hold what i they had oa hand until
there was a reaction in the market. This
is confidently expected as potatoes have ad
vanced in the East baxu 35 to 05 cents a
bushel and its effect will soon bo felt here.
Ordinary Eastern Peeress potatoes were
sold as low as t rsX yesterday, but the
average was above ?1 3.5,'a reduction^ from
25 to 30 per cent since Saturday. -: One mer
chant said that he s id ii car-lead ot Eastern
JBurbanks yesterday at $1 05. and could
have sold the same last : we^k at 52 60.
This was the lug:., 1 sale » reported ana
some of the same kin-, were sold at 61 35.

I have a pride, akin to that of the Phila

ing. A woman of a modest conservatism so
extreme that she lets her .: veil ■ down
when she passes a news-stand will
exhibit the frenzy of J a temperance
lecturer — tbis sentence is a v plagiar
ism—over a new pattern ■of finger- wide
pointed fine passementerie. Yet early in
the morning, while the sheets are being
lifted from the counters and the salesgirls
are smoothing down their holiday frocks,

to V- be delivered — the -enthusiasm _ of
Mile. Marie over the greater imsun rose on
the wide-brimmed hat she is hanging on a
little stand is something pleasant to see.'
Mile. Marie loves that hat almost as a
mother loves her child, lt has come from
that paradise over seas, where all good
women who wear their toques becomingly
go when they die. To Mile. Marie it stands
for She two gnu? of her Idolatry, Frenehi

It is braided of a fine black English straw.
■ •aging from the brim of it is a frill, almost
vide enough to be called a veil, of Chatt
ily lace, meant to droop over the hair and
j) forman ambush for the eyes. At the
tfe veil becomes a scarf, eyes. At the
ack tie veil becomes a scarf, to be twisted
:>und the neck and knotted in front in a big
*ffy bow. In a knot of tulle on one side Is
,ljnned the great rose. Over ihe rose flut-
Mrs, with outspread wings, a brilliant blue
butterfly. Mile. Marie touches tlm flower
v.'ith appreciative reverence. The hat is a
triumph of art in millinery.
. Almost as dear to her heart is a June hat
if silver mull, which she lifts from its tis
sie-pauer wrappings nnd hangs in a good
Ight near the window. A wing of the
null stands up straight on the crown, run

Consent is given and the shortening of
the beauty's sleep has been rewarded by
the acquisition of a garment which has not

murrer of S. F. Thorn. . manager of the

Thomas Coyson, who has sued to recover
J $25,000 damages for having been ejected
from the Palace, after making an agree
ment for rooms at $100 a mouth and refus
ing to pay an advance in the rent. In ills'
opinion Judge Hunt says: "If the rela
tion between the parties was that of board
itie-house keeper and boarder rather than'
that of inn-keeper and guest, the defendant
would have the right at his option to termi
nate: the, agreement. .' The distinction be

to - determine. i • • • The question > was
not Involved as contended in the demurrer, l
because the complaint merely charged that

Fredarick BanVs Anxiety to Make $25 A'mVit
Involve) Him in Trouble— The Prisoner J
. Exposed as a Fraud. ..
.* :• .v- ' ; ' .■•■,•■■',
John Russell, alias '. W. Franll, a middle
aged cripple, who, having lost his right leg
through an accident, lias replaced it with a
wooden one, is a most J clumsy rascal. .' His
dishonesty caused him to be arrested yester
day afternoon by Officer Manning of J the
Harbor Police, who placed a charge of for
gery against him at the North Harbor
Station. The complainant's gullibility,
moreover, is not the least remarkable feat
ure in connection with the case. .
V Yesterday about 1 :30 o'clock Rttsse'.l en
tered Fred Kink's J' bar-room, at 717 Davis
street, and ; stating;: that he had , recently
come down from Departure Buy, where he
had been' working as an J engineer at the
Dunsmuir coal mines, asked Rank if he
would cash ... a cheek •. for him, at
the same time handing him a check
for $300 on the Pacific Bank of
San Francisco, dated . San Francisco,"
March 29, 1890. No. 7231, a' payable to .
Job n Russell or order, signed R. Dunsmuir
& Sons . and indorsed •on J the back Alex
Dunsmuir. J Russell offered Rank 825 to
cash it. Rank had not the money at hand,
but anxious. to make the $23, quietly in
dorsed the check with his name and started
off with Russell to the Pacific Bank.
PATMEXI ntOJIPTLY 11EFUSED. .
On the way there Kauk met John Siebe,
of Siebe Pros. & Fingernail, and alter ex
plaining the ease to him, and to make ccl
lection the lAre sure, induced Mr. Siebe to
also indorse the check with the firm name
of Siebe Bros. & Plagemau. ink and
Kussell then presented the check at the
bank, where payment was promptly ' re
filled, the casnier objecting when reading
"oDuiisniuier" for "Dunsiuuir," and being
further placed on his guaid by the utter
dissimilarity of the recognized signature
and the further fact that no account is kept
al the Pacilic Bank by K. Dunsmuir & Sons.
Bank then made Russell accompany him to
K. Dunsmuir & Sons, where the check was
again presented and pronounced a forgery.
Officer Manning was then called in and
an adjournment taken to the North Harbor
Station. When Kussell was questioned he
said that the check had been given him by
Alexander Dunsmuir for work perlormed
by him at Departure Bay* as an engineer at
the coal mines there, He stated that he
had worked there off and on for Qhe past
five years, and had worked steadily lately
there for seven teen? mouths; that Mr. Duus
muir had indorsed the check to save trouble,
and that he was innocent of any fraud.
While he was making this explanation the
captain of the steamer Wellington came in.
TIIK CAT LET OUT OF THE BAG.
The captain suited that JRussali, under
the name of F. Fraull or W. Fraull, had
come down with him on the steamer on
February 28th last, on a pas* given by
James Dunsiuuir. Kussell could not ex
plain then how the check was dated March
•-'.)lh and he bad loft Departure Bay in Feb
ruary. A search of his clothing revealed
further damaging evidence against him. In
an inside pocket was found a begging peti
tion, written iv ink, setting forth that John
Kussell had been injured severely in an ac
cident and recommeudine him as a worthy
object of charity. The petition had no sig
nature. . ■
On the back, however, was written in
pencil the draft of a check, with the date
illegible, for 8550 ou the Bank of British
Columbia of this city in O favor of John
Russell or order and signed "it. Dunsmuier
& Sons." Also, scribbled a little lowerdown,
were the names Philip Berson or Bergen,
115 Stockton street; also, the name of
"James Dunsmuier," ami tlieu the ad-"
dresses 524 Bush street and 625 Pacific street. .
With the exception of a bottle of liniment'
nothing else was found on him. Kussell.
who claimed to be deaf, was locked up aud
attention turned to Rank, v
" In his case, however, it was so evident
that he had only indorsed the check in a
frantic effort to make $25 that he was not
detained. Kauk stated that tie thought the
check perfectly good aud if he had had the
money in the house he would unhesitatingly
have cashed it. >M_MHBMB________sh

morning at the Palace Hotel. -"„'■"
The subject of rates was- discussed, and
the committee at once proceeded to make
uniform rates on orange shipments to the
tallowing points: Chicago, St. Louis and
Missouri River. " Hitherto the rates have
been Sl 25 per hundred pounds to Chicago,
and St. Louis, ami $1 12% to Missouri River
points. The rate now lixed is Sl 10 to all
the above-mentioned points aud will take
effect on Friday next.
On -deciduous fruits the rales were re
duced as follows: To Missouri River points
Sl 12%. expedited $150. passenger $2; St.
Louis Sl 20, 1188. 52 10; Chicago 51 23,
Sl 75, S2 25; New York Sl 50, expedited S2,
passenger S2'so; Boston S I 60, $2 20, $2 50. •
The Pates fixed to New* York and Boston
are subject to the approval of the Eastern
roads Concerned, but they will no doubt
accept them as fixed by the committee.
These rates will go into effect on May 15th.
At the afternoon session the rates on
many other commodities were reduced. A
list of these articles and the rates fixed will
not be published, however, until Eastern
roads have had time to consider the action
of the Freight Committee, and either
agree to or strike out the rates as fixed by
tiiat body. The business of the association
is unusually heavy, and these meetings will
continue throughout the week.
