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

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.

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,

and complaining witness, il v. James

i quest for clemency.
District Attorney H. <'. 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

plication and recommend bis i irdon."
His condmt since imprisoutuent has
been exemplary aud be baa willingly
and conscientiously performed ail

For the foregoing reason the hon

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

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
