THE GOVERNOR RECEIVES THB : ANSWER Of XES P-I3ON DIRECTORS. Jurisdiction of the Executive ; Denied— Very Novel Answer— Kot Guilty,' bat Virtuous, ' * State Prison ' Directors, by their attorneys, Charles B. Darwin and William H. Sears, ■yesterday filed a demurrer with the Governor to the charges recently preferred, and also an answer. The demurrer sets forth that the Governor "has not jurisdiction, and has not judicial power to hear, nor to try, cor to try and determine the *-**-< ject of this action, nor the complaint, nor the written charges, nor the Bpecifi-atiocs of *.X.-.i complaint, nor any of them," and defer diLts aver that the juris diction is exclusively iv the Superior Court of the State and for the county wherein ■ tbo conduct complained of is alleged to have taken place, and defendants pray that the complaint may be quashed. Defendants also enter a demurrer to the proceedings on the plea to the; jurisdiction, -and pray that the charges may be dismissed. I Tue answer is as follows : v . , "'*..- THE.ANSWEB. To his Excel'ency, George St one-man, Governor of the State of California : Tbe People of the State of California against A. H. Chapman, J. H. Neff, Wm. F. McNutt and Geo. W. Sebell, State Prison Directors. I Now come the above-named defendants, by their attorneys, Charles B. Darwin and Wm. >H. Sears, and for answer to the written charge) and specifica tions preferred against said State Prison Directors, and filed with the Governor of California, George Stoneman, on May 10, 1883, deny and aver as fol lows: First — Deny that said Directors, in the manage ment of the State Prison at San Quentin, have been guilty of neglect of duty or misconduct, as stated in charge first ; and deny that they, or either cf them, bare been guilty of any gleet of duty or any mis conduct whatever, in the management of said prison. Second— Deny that the report of the Directors to Governor George C Perkins of the expenditures for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1881, of $38,123 25 on account of prison improvements and general ex pense, as stated in specification one, is false or fraudulent in any manner, but aver that said sum was actually expended as set forth in said report. Deny that the Legislature, on March 2, 1881, ap propriated $07,018 18 to pay deficiencies for sup port of the State Prison at San Quentin for the thirty-second fiscal year, as charged in specification two, but aver that said appropriation was to pay deficiencies prior to said thirty- second fiscal year. Deny that said appropriation was drawn in viola tion of law. Deny that said money was drawn without pre- Stnting a voucher there for, as charged in specifica tion two, but aver that said money was drawn un der and by authority of an Act of the Legislature, approved April 15, 18,*-0, entitled, "An Act to define, regulate and govern the State Prisons of California;" and aver that a voucher was regularly presented to the State Board of Examiners for the same, and by them duly allowed, and a warrant for the same reg ularly issued by the State Controller according to law. — Deny that the sum of 95,090 89 was de posited in the Dibemia Bank, in fan Francisco, under tbe authority of said Board of Directors, to the credit of J. P. Ames, Warden, or that any sum whatever was deposited in said bank to the credit of said Ames, Warden, as charged in specification three. Deny that said sum cf $631 33 was unlawfully borrowed, or unlawfully paid, by said Directors, as charged in specification three ; but aver that said sum «as pud for interest on contra* ts made and entered into by the Board of Prison Directors com. posed of Governor Irwin, Lieutenant-Governor James A. Johnson and Secretary of State Thomas Beck, during the year 1879. s.The advertisement published by authority of said Board tor supplies on November 20, 1879, reads as follows : " Payments wilt be made in 30 days from the end of the month in which such merchandise shall have been delivered." The contract entered into by said Boa-rd on behalf of the State with the successful bidders under said advertisement reads as follows : " The said Board of Directors, by their acceptance of said bid, do agree that the same shall be paid for within 30 days from the end of the month in which such merchandise shall have been furnished " The good faith and credit of the State was pledged by the said Board to pay cswh for supplies eveiy 30 days, furnished under said contracts, and it had been the rule of said Board to allow, and pay interest en said contracts, as will appear by the fol lowing resolution adopted by said Board: "Pay ments will be made at such times as funds shall be furnished by the State for that purpose, and neper centum per month interest will be paid on all bal ances after CO days from date of purchase." In order to keep the good faith of the State, and to save any violation of said contract on the part ct the State, the present Board of Directors allowed and paid on said contracts the latr/ul interest of the State, to wit : Ffeven per cent, per annum. -'•'. - The said Board of Directors further aver, tbat there aie deficiencies yet unsettled and unpaid, for supplies furnished prior to said thirty-second fiscal year to our predecessors in office ; and aver, tbat when all of said deficiencies are settled and paid, the balance if said appropriation will be returned- to the general fund, as required by the Act making said appropriation. Fifth Deny that there is nowhere in tbeir re. ports, or elsewhere, any accounting for the said difference of $7,128 60, as charged in specification four, but aver that said sum was left in the hands of the Warden of said prison, and is shown in the report, as required by "an Act to amend Sections 11, 17, 18 and 20, and to repeal Section 30 of an Act entitled an Ait to define, regulate and govern the State Prisons of California. Approved March 14, 1881." . Deny that said amount is not carried forward and accounted for in any subsequent report, as charged in specification four, but aver that said amount is carried forward and accounted for according to law. Sixth— Deny that there is any conflict between Warden Ames' report and the Clerk's report, as charged in specification five. . Deny that tbere is any charge in said Clerk's re port of money expended for " internal and external improvements." Deny that said Directors are justly chargeable with familiarity with dishonest transactions, or ne glect of duty, or misconduct in any way, or man ner, or at all. Aver that the said 'alleged difference is caused by the tact that in th * Clerk's report the said sum of $46,018 20 is only the cash actually paid to officers and employes, while the said sum of $65,3*20 14, as shown by the Warden's report, includes cash paid and supplies furnished said officers and employes. Seventh— Deny that said Directors failed to ac count for any money received from convict labor for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1882, aa charged in specification 6. Deny that said Directors failed to make any state ment or exhibit in reference thereto. Deny that they failed to show that money was received lor said convict labor during said time, or received at any other time ; but aver that all money received for convict labor is accounted for, and the proper state ment for the same has beeit furnished to tne State. Eighth — Deny that there was a balance of §11, --110 54 during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1852, unaccounted for, or any other sum whatever unac counted fir during said year, or at any other time, or at ail, as charged in specification 7 : but aver tbat said sum was in stock and material on hand, and is so reported for said *. ear. Ninth— In answering the charge in specification S, said Directors aver that they entered up the dis cbarge of their duties as Prison Directors on the 30th day of January, 1880, and that there was left of the appropriation of $150,000 for the support oi the State Prison at San Quentin for the 31st fiscal year only 827,520 to defray the expenses for the five months remaining in said fiscal year, which sum was insufficient to support said prison foi bat two months, leaving a balance of three months in said fiscal year without any funds to support said prison. The Legislature was in session, lhe Board of Di rectors applied to it for funds to bridge over the said year. A bill was introduced appropriating $51,C00 as a deficiency to cover it, but the amount was embodied in the general appropriation bid, and the Governor very properly struck it out with a veto mefsage. This left the Board without any money to carry on the prison. This was an emergency that had to be provided tor. Either the prisoners had to go without food and be locked up to starve, or turned loose upon the community, either of which would have been considered inhuman and outrageous Th.- Board met the emergency, like business men, and did what they believed was for the best interest of the State, and borrowed $34,000 from the Nevada Bank at 7 per cent. Interest per annum, and re ported the same to the following Legislature, which ratified their act by appropriating the amount to re pay the same, and also an additional amount to re place several thousand dollars which bad been taken by their predecessors from tbe trust fund be longing to the prisoners. -*■ Tenth— Deny that J. C. Johnson li Co., the Cali fornia Furniture Manufacturing Company, Jadson & Co , Amies & lUllam, the California Door Com pany er any other firm cr any person has an abso lute contract for the labor ci the prisoner-), as chargad in specification 9, or any contract whatever for the labor of prisoners. - Deny that said firms, or any other firm, or any person, pay the State sixty cents per day, or any other sum per day, on convict labor, for each con viat. :-.y- y----y- y: yyy ■ --yry * : r y ■ -Deny that there is any actual hiring of convict labor contrary to law, or in defiance of the declared public policy of the State ; but aver that said con victs are worked by the State exclusively i n account. of the SUte, according to law. and for the benefit of and best interests of the State. ' . - , ' '*. Eleventh— Deny that said Directors reijuircr J. P. Ames, Warden ol tbe prison at San Quanta, or of 1* C. Pockman, formerly Warden of the btate Prison at -Foisom, to waive or abandon their constitutional rights; and duties rerejiting the appointment or discbarco ■;■ ot • any officers or employes in favor of said Director as a precedent to the appointment of (aid Wa-jden, as charged in specifics! ion 10, or required them to waive any of their rights or duties for »•**■ purpoße >- Twelfth— that said Directors violated Sec tions 32 and 34 of the Political Code, or amy other law, by entering Into the constr ict'»>n of buildings >nS improvements at the prison at Sen Quentin at an estimated cost o! $40,000, as ch_-*-<*l ia specifica tion 11, or violated any . law whatever Inthe con tion 11, or violated any l*w wi.atevcr in tha con function ol any i— *_, *r ta making any im provements a* said p.i:-on, or at iH. - Deny tbat the purchase of reachiMry and jute, v cbarg-d in specification 11, was in violation ci -_j lav. —•> — '. - " '- . - ■ * : Deny 1: at the erection cf a building lor a * Jute factory was contrary to U« in any rospvet, as chatged in sp-Kr.fication but aver, that ail ol said thicg' were done under .
