MR.SENECA SWALM
Wants to Be Liberated on
Parole.
05TR0M CHASTISES SONTAQ.
The Prison Directors Preparing to
Issue Tickets-of- Leave — Ac
tion on Pardon Cases.
Seneoa Swalm hopes to exchange his
country residence at San Quentin for his
former luxurious quarters in this city
within the next few weeks, and his friends
are preparing to celebralu his return with
every evidence of joy.
Under an enactment of the Legislature
at its last session the State Board of Prison
Directors is permitted to parole prisoners
at its discretion under certain provisions.
These ;ickets-of-!eave cannot be granted
to convicts sentenced for murder in the
first or second degree, nor to those who
have previously been convicted of a felony.
It is required, too, that the prisoner shall
have served one calender year of the term
for which he was convicted. Uis iecord in
the priMin must show lOu per cent during
six consecutive months for diligence, good
conduct and progress iv education. War
den Hale, the captain of the yard, and the
Prison Surgeon constitute an advisory
board whose duty it will be to examine
every application for parole and report to
the directors. They must investigate the
general conduct and habits of the prisoner
and ascertain his antecedents. They must
seek such advice and orinlon concerning
the advisability of gra-.tinga parole as can
be obtainea from the Jnd^e who tried the
case, the District Attorney and the couusel
for the defense.
The rules governing the granting of
paroles were printed a few days aeo, and
almost every convict at San Quentin
prison is studying the requirements with a
view to applying tor a ticket-of-leave.
Only two applications will be in proper
form at the next meeting of the Prison
Directors. The advisory board is now
niakiug the required invesiisations in both
cases, and will have its reports ready by
the time required. The prisoners win se ap
plications will then be acted upon are
Seneca l^walm, formerly of San FraDcisco,
and W. 11. Bibby, late of Fresno.
Both men belong to the convict aris
tocracy and are regarded by their fellows
with a mixture of envious dislike and
secret admiration. Seneca Swalm entered
the prison in September, 1880, and is serv
ing a seven years' sentence of imprison
ment for grand larceny. He has received
all the credits obtainable for good conduct,
and if he should continue his good be
havior would secure his discharge in June,
1894.
When he first entered '.he prison Sen
Swalm worked in the jute-null. 11. in
dustry was marked, and as a result he was
assigned to nigher tasks. For two years
he has been given tnsks under th« beading
of "snit snaps." At one period of his in
carceration he acted as freight clerk at
the wharf, weighing coal and checking
bags and other supplies. lie is at present
fulfilling the congenial duties of chaplain's
assistant, with special reference to the
library books, which are under the chap-
Jain's care.
All the SaD Quentin officials bear witness
to exemplary conduct, but it is by
no means certain tuat tiiis will secure the
coveted parole. The sentiment exists
among some of 'he directors that prisoners
whose early training nas teen had and 'o
have transgressed parti)' through ignor
ance are more deserving of a tcket-')f
leave than well-educated scamps who
violated the law, kno wing its requirements
and its penalties. This feeling is genet ally
entertained fur confidence men of all kinds
whose education or adroitness has enabled
them to cheat their UDStispectiDg fellow
citizens.
\\ hen Seneca's application is disposed of
"\V. K. Bibby will be heard. He is a well
connected young man, and was formerly
Superintendent of Schools of Fresno. He
is serving a three-year term of imprison
ment fer forgery, and has been at
Qnpnlin eighteen months. His request is
looked uuen favorably, because it is in
dorsed by many of Fresno's most promi
nent citizens. The Sheriff, the Superior
Judge, the Superintendent of Schools and
a number of merchants, attorneys and
physicians have written to the bonrd that
Bibby 's release upon parole would accord
■with the wishes of his former neighbors.
They believe that he will fight shy of the
penal code hereafter.
All of the direct, rs ware ..t San Quentin
yesterday in executive session to act upon
applications for pardons. The first two
petitions were summarily disposed of as
follows:
Marcus Cesena, seutenffd in Monterey
County on September 4. 1801. to six year-*'
imprisoumeat for attempting a felonious
assault. Cesena was convicted upon the
testimony of a Spanish wnimn named Mary
Diaz, The pf-titio.i for pardon is signed
by over 300 persons, including seven of the
jurors.
It was contended that Cesena is inno
cent of the crime of which he was con
victed. I'ardon was denied.
Thomas Campbell from Placer County,
convicted in 1875 of murder, life imprison
ment. Denied.
PhiliD O'Brien. 13,504, convicted of
murder in the second degree and sentenced
to ten years' imprisonment in 1889, was
more lucky. The board recommended
that the sentence should be commuted to
six and a half years, which will effect his
discharge in three weeks. A petition for
his pardon was presented, signed by ten of
the jurors, the other two being absent
from the State. Judge Murphy, who pre
sided, ?.l«o recommended pardon, stating
that ("Brien was only 22 year* old wtien
te ctimitted the crime. Bis habits were
ptaceable and he had been industrious.
Since his conviction his parents have died,
leaving a young brother nnd sister de
pendent on the charity of distant rela
tives. O'lirien's tormer employers prom
ised him steady work, and ns his prison
record was excellent he will he allowed to
take care of his brother and sister next
month.
Edward Winfcel, 35.1G0, convicted in
December 8, 189:2, of grand larceny in
S;skiyou County, and sentenced to a year's
imprisonment at San Quentin, will be re
leased next week. His case was a pe
culiar one. Superior Judge J. S. Beard of
Yreka, who sentenced him, j 'inert with a
large number of other citizens in asking
for his pardon. The Judge stated thatth**
boy had persisted in pleading guilty, which
alone accomplished his conviction. The
court refused to accept the plea, appoint
ing an attorney, who advised young Win
kel to plead not guilty, unt with'ut in
fluencing his client. The boy's uncle was
the complaining witness, and had owed
the defendant $27 for labor. He declined
to pay thf boy, who took ahorse belonging
to his uncle. >old him openly in the neigh
borhood for $20 and applied the proceeds
on account of the debt. The Judpe stated
that theie was on absence of criminal in
tent, and that the boy's pr«viou> charac
ter was g<ioi]. The District Attorney joined
in the request for paidon, which the board
speedily granted.
The directors increased the price of grain
bags from 5.73 cents to 6.4 cents apiece.
The law allows them to sell the sacks at
an advance of 1 cent above the actual cost
of production. The plant in thp jutemill
ha« been increased from $200,000 to
$300,000, ou which sum the directors
charge 5 per cent for wear and ter.r of ma
chiueiy in estimating the cost ot manufac
turing.
Warden Hale maintains thathe has acted
within the requirements of the Ostrom act
in selling sacks, Since theapproval of the
act last February about 050.000 bags have
been sold. Of these 645.000 have been dis
posed of since April, and the Warden
maintains that all but 136,000 have been
sold direct to farmers. The exceptions are
as follows:
Slnshetmer Hros 74.000
Kpplnß-r A Co 80.(100
Anspaclier A Oo 3-\OUO
Each of these firms has an office in this
city, but they have also stores in the in
terior, the first at San Luis Obispo, the
second at Suisun and the third at Liver
more.
The Warden avers that in ordering bass
these firms sent ali-t of the farmers whose
individual orders made up the total num
ber requested. In each case the farmers
named sent the affidavits required, that
the sacks were for iheir personal use.
Each farmer signed a form requesting
that the number of bags asked for in the
affidavit be shipped in care of the firm
sending the general order, and inclosing a
certified check for the total amount.
Warden Hale produced a stack of these
affidavits and orders from Sinsheimer
Brothers in verification of his statements.
Director Son tag was severely criticized
by other members of the board for having
made unauthorized statements concerning
the board's movements to a morning paper.
It was also charged that he had, on several
occasions, while sitting as a director acted
as reporter for a newspaper. Snnntag,
according to the statements of his asso
ciates, attempted no denial of these
charges.
State Senator D. A. Ostrom of Tuba
has written to The Call, replying to an
attack upon him and the measure known
as the Ostrcm bill, made by Charles Sonn
tag at a recent meeting of the State Board
of Prison Directors. The Senator handles
the Prison Director without gloves, begin
ning by saying:
"Prison Director Sonnta?, with the war
like prefix of 'colonel' to his name, has
seen fit to belch forth upon an innocent
world and the humble writer hereof in
particular a lot of Billingsgate abuse and
'Tar Flat' oratory unfit to emanate from
the lios of any gentleman when in his nor
mal condition, but which may be the usual
style of the doughty colonel when criticiz
ing or speaking of decent people."
In his letter Senator Ostrom then quotes
the measure which bears his name and
then proceeds to analyze its provisions re
lating to the sale of bags from the prison
jutemill.
"Wiiy," he asks, "was such a law
needed? Simply because the Prison Di
rectors have formerly been in thn habit of
fixing a price on bags practically the same
as that of the bag rings, and some have
been unkind enough to suggest collusion
of action. However, I entertain too high
an opinion of the majority of the prison
board to entertain any such an idea, tor I
esteem them as worthy gentlemen.
"Mr. Sonntatr, the disgruntled Director,
complains that the law prevents the telling
of bags on credit. 1 would be phased to
have him tell me when and where he ever
offered a farmer bags on time, unless per
chance it might be s> 111 « bag-ring farmer
of San Francisco or Oakland whose inter
ests were with the combine; and in truth
the State cannot sell bags to the farmer
for other than cash for reasons obvious to
any business man. The law speaks for it
self, and anyone who will carefully ex
amine it will commend it ana its purposes."

GENEROUS CHILDREN.
Response to a Call for Charity at
Peabody School.
On Thursday Miss Cahalin, the principal
of the Peabody School on West Mission
street, made a request of the children of
the higher grades to bring old clotnes,
shoes and stockings for some poor chil
dren la the district who were unable to
attend school because they have hardly
any clothes.
The principal's attention was called by
a Call reporter to the fact that there
were shoeless children in the district, and
investigation proved it to be correct.
The children of the school responded to
the appeal with promptness. Yesterday
morning many of them name to school
loaded down with wearing apparel. A - s it
is to be kept secret who the neneficiares
are the teacher* received the bundles un
opened and stored them away.
There will be no need of children stay
ing from school now nn account of lack of
shoes or hats, for there is enough to pro
vide for them now, ana none <>i the other
r-hiidren will know anything about it.
Some of the little mi*se« who donated
have darned stockings for the poor them
selves and patched torn placed.

THE MORNING CALL, SAN FRANCISCO, FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 1893.
ABBATTI'S PLEA.
The Counterfeiter Says He
Is "Guilty."
Murry Will Make the Same Plea.
One of the Last Chapters of a
Celebrated Case.
When the case of Giovanni Abbatti, the
counterfeiter, was called in the United
States District Court yesterday Attorney
George A. Knight, for the defense, stated
that his client desired to withdraw the plea
of not guilty and would enter a Dlea of
guilty. Ths attorney also stated that
when the time came for the defendant to
appear for sentence Abbatti would make a
statement of facts that would undoubt
edly be of benefit to the Government uffi
t-i.ils.
The plea of guilty came as a surprise to
Assistant District Attorney Shurtleff,
who has had charge of the case, and to
Secret Service Detective Harris, who
worked up the evdence against the men.
A further surprise awaited them in the un
official announcement that when C. M.
Murrv, an accomplice of Abbatti. ap
peared in court thl* morning he would fol
low the lead nf his companion in crime
and ent?r a flea of guilty. The time of
seuteuco was fixed for next Mouday morn
ing.
The conviction of Abbatti and Murray is
one of the last chapters in the greatest
counterfeiting case in the history of Calf
lornia. The gang of counterfeiters con
sisted of G. Abhalti, Poal<> Visconte, C.
M. Many, Fred Marsh and D U. Hewell.
Through this agency the country was
flooded with thousands of spurious dol
lars, half-dollars and quarters. The first
three named are now awaiting sentence.
Unwell is awaiting his third trial, the
juries in the two former. trials having dis
agreed. A newspaper readers are familiar
with the particul m of ths lnng-dr*wn-ou<
fight made in the courts by Mrs. Ilowell in
her attempt to save her husband, and th«
alleged attempt on t!ie part of the defense
to spirit away Laura E. \V"lks, one of the
Government's witnesses. Jllss Welks. who
bas often been referred to as the mysteri
ous "woman in white," claims that Averv
C. White, a Stockton attorney, paid lit
iS3 and was to five her more if she would
go to either Mexico or Canada. That the
plot miscarried was not because the woman
would not accept the bribe, but because
the balance of the money was not forth
coming. The defence of her husband thus
far is said to have cost Mm. lioweil 535,
--000.
WHITE HAS RETURNED.
He Denies the Charges Made by the
Woman in White.
STOCKTON, Aug. 24.— Awry C. White,
the Stockton lawyer referred to in the
Unwell case, returned from the East sev
eral weeks ;igo and is here, lie denies the
charges made against him by the "Woman
in Win:?," and says he is ready to meet
any accusation. On it is return from the
East lie asked the uffl er< here and in San
Francisco if he was Wanted, and was in
formed that ti ere was no charge against
him. Ho aske'J flowell's attorneys to
inquire of the United States District At
torney if any charge had been filed iigainst
him and found there was nothing to an
swer.
