A FAKIR FOILED.
Sensational Yarn About
; : the County Jail.
•IT WAS A NARROW ESCAPE.
}. -/.;
•:' The Chief Jailer, His Deputies and
McNulty Indignant— How News
Is Manufactured.
• Chief Jailer FitzpatricK of the County
.Jail on Broadway and bis deputies were
.• ..amazed yesterday morning when they read
.;" a sensational "fake" story in one of the
= 'dailies about an attempt of prisoners to
escape.
. " •'■ John AlcNulty, the condemned mur
"• •■ derer, also saw the story, and was uot only
:■ : amazed but indignant. The article com
- : mences: "It is due entirely to John Me
* -.Nulty that there are not a large number of
■ convicted felons roaming the streets of
• this city to-day."
. •;. "It is too bad," said McNulty yester
•' day, "that such a lie should be told about
-. me. 1 knew nothing about any attempt to
:'-' escape, and the first I knew about it was
: 'when I read it iv the paper this morniug.
•; Now all the other prisoners are down upon
. .'me, as they look upon me as a stool-pigeon.
: ; '-'I wish you would put it right forme. How
:"• could I know anything about it when my
•.•; cell is on the opposite side of the corridor
;• from cell 7, where the attempt is said to
". have been made, and several doors further
: . east?"
•.' v': Jailer Fitzpatrick was indignant, and
refused at first to say anything about the
. ''aiileged attempt to escape.
■'. ;■-. .'."lt's all nonsense." he said. "Why, man
alive, • any prisoners on that row who
wanted to escape would have to bore
.-through a solid brick wall four bricks thick,
•'•'arid after boring through it they would
/••'•'find themselves face to face with another
-.'■ ; brick wall of eaual thickness. Just go and
' see for yourself."
:'/.'•• .A visit was made to cell 7 and Jailer
Fnzpatrick's statement was found to be
.. correct. Outside the solid brick wall is a
'passage-way of about three feet with the
•-•-. .-thick brick wall of the adjoining building
•'nttbe other side of the passage, and at the
>■ Blnckley-alley end a solid brick wall about
• -thirty feet high.
".-. : ' In the fake story it is said, speaking of
the escape: "It was to occur in the fore
.'. ;' : ndon, when all the prisoners were enjoy
.-; • ing their promenade. Tbe short-time men
•~ ; and * few others who had no desire to go
'•'• were to gather in a crowd and create a
'"'■ 'disturbance. Then while the attention of
:=;. .the jailers was attracted to them those in
the plot to escape were to slip into cell 7,
'•''.*'. oju't. through the hole into the alleyway be
.-; tween the prison building proper and the
;. ° fence which surrounded it and scale the
• .-latter and disappear. In order to make
.disappearance possible confederates were
■•-.'-.'to be stationed on the outside provided
: :: 'with carriages into which the escapes
..*..'•'•. we "to be crowded. Plans for hiding
"...'.-.".away a majority of them had already been
; laid."
-When all the prisoners are enjoying their
■ •-.' promenade, all the cell-doors are locked, so
.;': that it would have been utterly impossible
'!; ; for the prisoners "to slip into cell 7, rut
•-.' ; -through., the hole into the alleyway be
'••' tween the prison building proper and the
."._" :V fence which surrounded it and scale tbe
i- latter and disappear." The fence is not a
;;')" fence, but a brick wall thirty feet high, 1
'•'•', and it would be a difficult feat to scale it.
'. ••"" • The only ground for the "fake" story is
•I'.'.-ithat the two prisoners in cell 7, Amos, a
, colored man. and Kelly, who had a duel
.• ;recen;ly with George Upson, the bogus
:-;..:: lottery ticket man, bad taken the handle
. Hfrouj a galvanized bucket in their cell,
•'-.'forced open three short pieces in the floor
.;-. ing and-scooped about a bucketful of earth
• .'from' underneath the floor. Then they
'. :;Btruck the rocky foundation of the jail aud
/•^•.ceased their labors. The absence of the
■...•'-••handle of the bucket was noticed next
'/■ : : morning and the prisoners confessed what
"} ' '.they had done with it.
WORK MAY STOP.
• Supervisor Kennedy's
,■': New Proposition.
• The iFl nance Committee Fail to Give
•• •''- '■. [■ Any Relief to Auditor Brod
■'■: crick's Employes.
Auditor Brodprick sent the following
..communication to the Finance Committee
■;'••" of the Board of Supervisors yesterday:
..' :'-':• .'.fin nytre Committee, Board of Supervisors —
"'{ (ii:.Vii:KMKN: You have In your possession
• If '-'demands against the treasury intended to pay
; '..'■- virion, persons for copying and computing tlie
: same id the taxroll of 1893. I have been in
• '■.•'• formed that members of the committee object
•' •to passlag npou them because tbey are in ex
?.?'"cess of the amount estimated as sufficient i>y
•..'."trie board In the annual appropriation— about
" f90.0. This is to be lejiretied, inasmuch as the
•!- : board failed to appropriate the amount allowed
:-■" " 'Id .the estimate of the Auditor as the proper
• appropriation. Heretofore the State shared in
■-•' the- cost of the work, hut an act of the last Leg
..'.-"lßtentn abolished the State's responsibility,
■ : ' and therefore the county must provide for ex
'•'.'••: ua expense. For this reason an increase upon
"•'.•former allowances should have been made.
The Auditor's estimate was $18,000 for assess
-.-. ment and military rolls, while the board saw tit
" .:' to allow but $15,000. The amount paid jointly
•L' by the State aud city and county for this work
P. in 1891*92 was $24,204 3G. In 1892-93 It was
'. .#23,680 60. Ii will therefore be -e-n that the
• Auditor in his estimate intended to do the work
". for upward of $5000 less.
•■•'"•" I beg leave to state that your refusal to audit
'•' ■ the demands for this work for the reason given
• •1« not In accord with the law. Sections 3728,
3729, 3730. 3731, 3732 and 3733 of the Politi
•'". cal Code compel the Auditor to perform cer
"•■- tain acts which I have done, and section 3893
'•■' directs the Hoard of Supervisors to make a
. '".-reasonable allowance therefor, not to exceed 8
'• -cents per folio. There can be no doubt but
that the work has been performed very much
below the stipulation.
'■'■■' lii conclusion. I will say that the charges of
-•' copying the taxrolls and the extension of the
•"' taxes in the original and duplicate books and
•the computation and expertlng of same Is
■ . $7666 61 less than last year and $8380 36 less
'•" man the year previous. For the sake of tbo*e
- . demanding pay I ask that you pass on and
'■.'•allow those demands. Very respectfully.
Wm. Hkodeiuck.
• :; ..' Op motion of Supervisor Kennedy the
• • communication was placed on file, the im
■":' '•■ 'predion prevailing that the relief asked
••'•for could not be granted.
•-"" Supervisor Kennedy, in speaking of the j
."'•" condition of the finances of the Street De
: . nartment, said that if the funds would be
"."■• further overdrawn the only course to fol
;-../ low' would be to stop all work on the Street
""• Biepartment entirely.
.•• Chairman James said that the Street
Superintendent attributed the condition
• of the funds to the large amount of work
.' .-rirdered' by the Board of Supervisors in
•'.front of public property and for which he
. .".was not responsible.
• • "Supervisor Rels said the best way the
;'. -"committee could do was to adhere to the

. WORK ON THE TUNNEL.
'. Men Sent to San Luis Obispo— Trade
With Mexico.
• ' : The contractors in charge of the tunnel
and other work at San Luis Obispo shipped
• a lot of men from this city to that point
.■'/■'. yesterday and th» evident intention is to
• "push the work to completion as soon as
-'.; possible. - Several weeks ago a large . re
-•• d-uction was made in the working force
■. and this is the first intimation of the in
tention to nut on an increased force. It is
said that more men will be taken down
next week.
W. J. Parker, representing the Mexican
central Railroad, is in the city for the
purpose of interesting our business men
more fully in the trade with thutcountrv.
ills road proposes to place rates at such a
hgure that San Francisco merchants can
successfully compete with those in the
East. Shipments' from here would go via
the Southern Pacific to El Paso, where the
Mexican Central would take the goods.
Traffic Manager Leeds has had a long con
versation with Mr. Parker and stated his
intention of bringing the matter before the
executive committee of tbe Traffic Associa
tion at its next meeting.
THE UNEMPLOYED.
One Hundred and Ten Desire to Go
to New Orleans.
Mayor Ellert received a visit yesterday
morning from a delegation representing
110 of the unemployed at Seventh and
Mission streets, who desired to go to New
Orleans. The delegation had previously
visited the railroad company, and stated
that they had received assurances that if
the Mayor would indorse their application
the railroad company would give them
transportation. The Mayor communi
cated with the Salvation Army and dis
covered that the men were worthy of as
sistance. So he addressed a note to the
railroad company containing the letter he
had received from the captain of the Sal
vation Aruiv.
FLORENCE AGAIN.
She Wins in the Encinal
Club Race.
Marine Polo" Tried for the First
Time With Results of Some Fun
and Some Damage.
The Encinal Boat Club closed the yacht
ing season yesterday at their clubhouse on
the Alameda side of the bay.
The first part of the day was taken np
with a race for the challenge peuuauts in
the first and second classes, which was
won by the Florence in the first class by
28 seconds actual sail time. She had lee
way of 1 minute and 31 seconds time al
lowance, which she uidlnot have to use.
This makes her tie for the second prize
with the vixen and the lied Imp of the
second class, which undoubtedly will not
be sailed eft, as the Florence can easily
give the time allowance which their racing
rules prescribe and beat them out.
The start of the second class was made
at 1 o'clock p. m. The first to cross was
the Caprice at 1:01:15, followed by the Bed
Imp at 1:01 and the Fearless at 1:02:05.
The beat down to the windward stake
boat the Caprice pulled steadily ahead un
til when turning it she was almost a mile
ahead.
The Red Imp and the Fearless held
abuut even to this point. On the reach to
stakeboat 4 the Fearless was doing splen
didly and held the Caprice down. The
Red Imp seemed to be laboring very hard,
caused by too much head sail.
When 4 was i iis«*>d they squared away
for home, and the Vixen with her kites
ran away from the r^st like a two-year
old, finisbiuc at 2:40:42. Next came the
Fearless at 2:53:26 and the Red Imp at
3:01:30. The Caprice.-, sailing time was
1:39:29. the Fearless' l:sl:2l and the Red
Imp's 1:59:50. The Caprice was ruled out
for having a professional aboard and the
Fearless was uot racing for the prize, as
Captain Thorn had not entered her. So
tbe pennaut goes to the Red Imp.
The race of the first class was somewhat
better. The Utile Annie crossed at
1:20:40, the Lapwing at 1:20:08 and the
Florence at 1 :21 :52. On the beat to stake
boat 3 the Little Aunie had in ■ way the
best of it. The Lapwing* made a bad
move by reaching out too far, which lost
her all the chance of winning. R-unding
this stateboat on the reach to No. 4 the
Florence caught up almost to the Little
Annie, but coming home was dropped a
little behind. With all that she beat the
Little Annie in actual sailing time, whicn
Is saying a good deal considering the re
duced canvas with which she covered the
course.
After the race was over the yachts In
dulged in •'marine polo," with the result
of the Fearless having her foresail torn to
pieces by tbe bowsprit of the Little Annie,
which lost her bobslay. Then the Flor
ence carried away the .iecerniast of the
Dulce. With all this they still stayed in
the game until the end.
Captain Yon Schmidt had the Whirl
wind over to the Encinul again to-day and
sailed over tbe course with the yacht, and
the time he made surprised the judges,
who thought from his last performance
that she was not anything out of tlie or
dinary. However, to come in only half a
minute behind the larger boats was mak
ing things spin.
New Attachments.
Melville Forth attached the carpet-store
of L. J. Newman on Filth street yester
day for $1200.
Two additional attachments were levied
yesterday- on . the much-attached firm of
Fiegenbunra&Co., the toy merchants. One
was by John McLaughlin for $2547 and
the other by the Sheffield Manufacturing
Company for $1998.
The Street Department. .
The Street Department officials were en
gaged in moving their dust-covered and
ancient effects from the basement to the
upper floor in the northeast wine of the
new City Hall yesterday. The new office
will be open for business on next Monday
morning.
