THE MINISTERS MEET IN COUNCIL. How the Plan of the Rock Pile is Progressing. Tho City Districted nnd Committees Appointed to Search Out Cases of Destitution. The Ministerial Union held a meeting yesterday morning to discus- questions relating to its work. Key. Mr. Derrick opened tbo meeting with prayer. Key. Simon of the Jewish Church aud Key. Pointer of the A. M. E. Church, who were present for the first time, were made members of the Ad visory Committee. Boy. XV. H. Baugh stated the objects of the union and the methods of its work. Key. 11. M. Hoyt asked concerning the Children's Home Society. J. \V. Daniels of San Diego had called on him, solicit ing aid for the society, but things seem to be ruu loosely. There does not seem to be any director, auy President or Treas urer, aud Mr. Daniels stated tnat he did not know who tbe directors are. Key. Duck said that Mr. Dauiels had given him literature of the society, in which the names of the directors are given. Key. J. H. Keider said he bad known Mr. Daniels lor years and knew him to be all right. He is a very absent-minded forget: vi man. Key. liaugh stated that Mr. Daniels had entered the work through the influ euce ofa lrieud and had done so without being thoroughly posted in it. Mr. Kaugh theu read a report of the ■work already done. Only a small part of what had been planned has beeu carried out. A rock pile was provided, but about the time it was started the supply of rock from Hocklin was temporarily cut oil. This was t?oou remedied aud ihey hoped to again get rock lrom Kocklin, as the freight is lilteeu ceuls less a ton than lroui tbe place where rock is at preseut procured. Au unexpectedly large number of men applied for work, aud more hammers bad to be procured from time to time. Tne cost of breaking the rock is so large that a loss of 75 cents a ton is the result. There is hope iv the future lor a market lor the broken rock. The men who apply for work break a cubic loot of rock iv re turn for a ticket. Many of the meu are thinly clad, and Borne are almost shoeless aud hatless. It has been thought by the committee that it would be a good plan to have a central poiut, where those who are disposed to give secoud-band clothes, hats, shoes, underwear, etc., could leave or send them, and they could be uiarked in mul tiples of fifteen cents, and worked for just as meals and lodgings are. This is not for speculation, but would simply help to recoup the loss of ~b cents per toil ou tbe ruck, and necessitate tho calling ou citizeus for just so much leas money to help.carry the project out. Those who could not take the clothes to the XV. C. T. U. rooms, are requested to notify Mr. liaugh, at 1014 Fourteenth stieet, where be could scud ior them. Key. Hoskinsou stated that the rooms of be Women's Christian TeYuperance Lniou ou Third street, between X and L, bad been secured as a depot for the second hand clotbiug, and a mau would be in charge there to receive it between 2 p. ai. aud ii p. ic Mr. Baugh then stated the special object of tne meeting, which was to take steps for districting the city, and canvass ing it thoroughly, iv order to find all cases of destitution and suffering, with a view to relieving it, and also to bud wort, for the deserving who were out of em ployment. Mr. I.eider slated that in order that tbe Union might know just what was being done, he had suggested that the churches in any one of the quadrants named can vass the territory iv which they are situ ated and find out tne condition of allairs •within their respective precincts. He mentioned the case ofa deserving woman who bad been unablo to obtain employ ment and had been living on one meal a day. He did not think tbe people of Sacramento would allow the deserving poor to sulfcr if they kuew of their desti tution, aud this plan seemed to offer an opportunity of getting such information. Mr. Simon asked if it would not be well to find out just bow the diilereut churches would unite in bearing tfie ex pense. Key. Hoyt asked if the plan was not to havo tne members of the different churches canvass the quadrants instead of having paid agents to do so. Mr. Keider said that the lines of the quadrants were Tenth and X streets, and be enumerated the churches in the re spective districts. Mr. Baugh stated that be had called on Father Grace and tbat be took an interest in tbe won., but on account of his en gagements the hour of the meeting was inconvenient for him to attend. Key. G. A. Uttniann of St. Paul's Church bad Btated to bun that the work in his church was so well organized that he declined to work with the union, preferring to han dle il bimseif. Ou motion cf Mr. Hoskinson, tbe re port was adopted. Key. Auderson moved that the com mittee for canvassing each quadrant be composed of two from each cuurch and one from the Catholic Church for eaeu quadrant. Keys. Buck and Keider thought tbat it •wouid be better to appoint a larger num ber from each church, as the work could bo divifled up so as to make it less bur densome on their time aud make mem bers more willing to canvass. Mr. Keider said that the committee had canvassed the ground preity thoroughly. The hardest work will be in the lower part of the city, but tho strongest churches are there also, thus equalizing matters. Ihe formation of the committee was decided on,the number of members from eacu church being left indefinite. Mr. Keider moved that Key. Hoyt of the Congregational Church be Chairman of tiie committee in the northwest quadrant; key. ISuck of the SiXth-streot BL EL Church for the southwest quad rant; Key. Ireirou of the M. fci Central lor the northeast and Key. Sturtevanl for the southeast quadrant, so that they could take action at once to call the com mittees together. The motion was adopted. Key. Keider announced that to-day Theories ARE GOOD. Facts ARE BETTER. Theories supported by Facts are invincible.

Governor Mnrkham P«rdons Two and Commutes the SeatO-ftCO of Seven More, Governor Mark ham has pardoned Julius Levy, who was sentenced by the Superior Court oi San Francisco ior ;>UO d;iys to the llouso of Correction lor malicious mischief. It appears that the prisoner was oi unsound mind and h;is } since become insane, tiie Mcd cal Super ; intendent stating that he is ho; sternly so. lie has also pardoned .J. F. Woods, , t-entenced to State's Prieoa from San j Francisco iv June, 1893, forti roe jean foe burglary, on the recommendation of tbe stato Prieoa Directors. Jl i: IS OLD NOW. The sentence of David Kyail. sentenced from Amador County in Jui I*7B, ior life, for murder in the first degree, to thirty-two yeiirs, which releases bim. Following are the reasons (riven : The petitioner has now serve 1 nineteen ami one-ball years solid lime, equal to a sentence o! over thirty-two years, lie is now an old man 74 years of aye, ieebie and decrepit. During his iong imprison ment be has always conducted hiu.sell in a proper manner, obeyed the rules of thu prison, and 1 think has been BUllicieutly punished. ills son is able aud willing to tai;e hi in to bis liomo and maintain aud care tor him during the remainder ol bis life. For tbe foregoing reasons tne .Mau Board of Prison Directors have unanimously rec ommended that the sentence be com muted to a term oi thirty- two years. SKBVKD unit II 1.1. tkkm. lie has also commuted to one year and eieven months tho .sentence of i-stner Drown, sentenced from Placer County in Oetooer, ISL* >, for grand larceny for live years. The petition for pardon is signed by a large number oi representative citizens, including the .Judge who tried tiie case, aud who are familiar with tho .acts: and, whereas, pending au appeal to the Su premo Court lrom the judgment of the lower court, petitioner bad remained in tne County Jail for a period of more thau three years until the judgment of said lower court was continued, and has now in reality been incarcerated the full term for which sho was sentenced, lor the foregoing reasons the State Doard of Prison Directors recommend a commuta tion of sentence to ono year aud eleven mouths. COJJMUIKI) TO *IX VEAf.s, The sentence of Henry lice, who was sentenced for robbery in San Francisco for ten years, is com muted to six years. The prisoner whs only IS years old at the I time of the robbery, and many promi- I ueut citizens, and all the jurors, and Mrs. i Dalchy. the complaining witness—all strongly urged his pardon. Ono of the witnesses said ho could not positively I identify tbo accused, and Judge D. J. j Murphy, who tried the case, states that I in view of tne youth of thouolondantand the iact that there seemed to be an eoi demic of robberies, possibly tbe sentence of ten years was somewhat severe, and the reduction would serve the interests of justice. STOLE A $o HARNESS. Tiie Governor baa aiso commuted to j three years tho sentence of Walter Weaver, who was —planned from Fresno Couuty, iv October, ISM, to fourteen years ill State's Prison, for burglary. It appears that petitioner was convicted Of Stealing an old harness valued at 85; that he was a young man. and was led into committing the criuie by others, older than himself, and o! very unsavory I character; that his family aud relatives are all responsible, well-oonnected ami deserving peoplo, able and willing to care for petitioner if released. His pardon is urged by Judges Harris aim Webb of the Superior Court, District Attorney Feriman Church. Senator G. G. Qoncber, all of the trial jurors, aud many of the leading citizens of Fresno ac quainted with the facts in the case. Judge S. A. Holmes, the trial Judge, states tbat at the time of the burglary many similar offenses had been coin | mitied. and lie bad announced bis inten* | tion to sentence each person convicted of j such crimes to the full penalty of the law; and therefore to be consistent ami to check crime, be gave to Weaver the same sentence, The State Hoard of Prison Di rectors unanimously recommend the commutation. wnv iik BMBESZMSD. The sontenco of Arthur I. Stewart is also commuted to two years. He was seutlroml.osAnge.es Count} in bebru | cry, lSitf, for five years, for embezzle ment. He was bookkeeper for tho Superin tendent of Streets and tiie money em . be/.zted was used iv the support of his : mother aud sisters, who had been de serted by a drunken and worthless bus ! band ami father. It appears that prior to this offense the ; young man bore an unblemi bed char i a-ter; had filled many reepon -able post i tioiis with honesty and fidelity, and his future appeared to oe of the brightest. .as is attested by the Hon. V*. A. Gregg, i 1). A. Watson, Superintendent oi Streets and complaining witness, il v. James ; McLacblan, .Mayor T. 11. Rowan, lion. I John 'i. liaffery, 1 >•-. <;. !;.

Dillon says: j "lie believes justice lias beeu ■ indicated, ami that the Uei'endaat has sut wed su.'ii cieutly, and in the hope that theleaeon i which has been taught bun will result in id* becoming a good citizen au I of future service to the State, l concur in the ap plication and recommend bis i irdon." His condmt since imprisoutuent has been exemplary aud be baa willingly and conscientiously performed ail es allotted to bim. For the foregoing reason the hon orable 'tale Hoard of Prison Directors bave unauimousiy recommended tno commutation to two years. • • 'ifiJ.TV. 110 has also commuted to one and ono balf years iho sentence of Edward Tribo let, couvicted ii San Mateo 'ounty in November, 189S, ol assault to rob and sentenced lo imprisonment for I wo years, fits Male Board of Prison Directors, ; after a careful consideration of this case, ■ has certified to the following r mendation: "iho board recommends : that the application be granted <>ra com mutation oi sentence to one and one-half years from date of commitment, for the following reasons, to wit: H.s petition is signed by ali the Supervisors and town officials, Suerill. -superintendent of Schools aud other prominent citizens, who certify that prior to Che commission of the offense be bore au excellent repu tation lor honesty and integrity, be hav ing been iai-ed in Ked wood City, and | was led into the crime by au older person, E after repeated trials was finally dis ced. At ihe time of the commission te oilense lie was but 19 years of age, ;e liuck, who tried the case, and also ruey George lioss appeared in per .efoie the board and made a strong al ior this uuiortunate boy. and as -1 the board that if ho was released, ould have steady employment fur id hitn in Redwood City, where his oyers would at once set him to work ■»»•*■ With this assurance from Judge Buck ami otners, the board recowmenaa the above commutation." Since said trial and since said recom mendation oi said Board, Judge Buck has furnished a statement, strongly anting clemency on the ground that since tne gl facts have been presented to him ich fully prove that said Tribolet was guilty ot tho assault to rob, but was ._dea victim by his accomplice, who ia now well known in tho neighborhood, and has since the trial beeu thoroughly investigated by said Judge, aud found to be one of the shrewdest and most natural criminals be has ever known. The sentence of lredericK M, Marburg, sent for four years from Sau 1* rancisco iv March, 1694, for embezzlement, is com muted to ono year, which will release him on January 12, 1895. The case was taken up by the Board of Sates Prison Directors on their own mo tion, and a commutation to one year re commended, on the grounds of previous good standing and ability, the' recom mendation of all the jury living, the Judge and many leading citizens. The prisoner has a wife and children depend ent on him and iv actual want. Young Highwaymen.
