MAJOR COOK IS SPEEDY.
|
'Defeated Kaasin Very Handily
V at Six Furlongs in Coast
Record Time.
lOBENGULA WON UNDER WRAPS
Sowena B Downed a Field of Twelve
Speedy Youngsters in the
Pacific Stake.
It appears to be no trick at all for the
sprinters to cover the six furlongs over the
Bay District's fast clayey track in 1:13
coast record time. In fact when Major
Cook defeated Kamsin very cleverly it.
the sixth event yesterday, and stepped the
distance in the record notch, it failed to
aitract more than passing comment. The
Major, carrying 104 pounds, was an even
money chance, and after William Pinker
ton, had reeled off the first half in .47*4
seconds, took command and headed the
game Kamsin out a length at the wire.
There were but three starters.
The fact that a stake event as well as
the usual selling and purse races had to be
decided attracted a much better crowd
tnan on the opening day of the week, and
the betting was much "livelier. Turee of
the seven events run off went to favorites
in the betting.
The Pacific stake for two-year-olds,
worth J**) to the lucky youngster, at four
furlongs, drew out a field of twelve. The
Fl Primero staole entries, Lnmina and
Fleur de Lis, had first call in the betting,
the rim never laying better than 11 to 5
against the pair. Key del Tierra at threes
was the next most fancied, with the Burns
A* Water boose duo. Rowena B and King
Street, third in demand at 4to 1. The lat
ter stable opened in the betting at 2% to 1.
Long odds were obtainable against the I
other starters. The start was. as usual,
good. Kowena B soon headed the field of
gay colors and, clipping along at a merry
rate, passed the wire two lengths clear of
her stable companion, King Street, who in
a drive took tne place from Howard S by
a nose. The distance was covered in 48"*£
seconds.
Owner Pat Dunne annexed the purse in |
the opening six-furlong run with San j
Marco. The chestnut colt was backed .
down from 7 to 5 to evens, and having a
most ordinary field to dispose of won eas- j
ily from the second choice, Candor.
In the next event, a seven-furlong affair j
decided under selling conditions, the 8 to j
6 choice. Hermanita, won only after some j
very persuasive riding on the part of Ed
die Jones. Mt Air, the second choice,
sailed out in the lead when the eight
starters were dispatched, and died away to
nothing in the stretch when looking all
over a winner. Pollock, an outsider, then
took up the running and was beaten out
but thiee parts of a length by the favorite.
The Flambeau-Fairy Rose filly. Sweet
Rose, again disappointed her admirers in
the six furlong dash that was third on the
card. Sent to the post an even money
choice, she ran well for half a mile and
then began falling to the rear. . In a hard
drive Piggott got the 2]4 to l second
choice, . Morven, to the wire first, a neck
in front of Crawford. Gold Bug was a
close third. . . " ''
Green Morris cut a watermelon in the
fifth race with Strathflower, against which
the ring laid sto 1. The mare led all the
way, and won ridden out at the end half a
length before , the 100 to 1 shot Seaside,
ridden by Snider.' The 4 to 5 favorite j
Thelma was beaten.out the last jump a ;
nose for the show by Monita.

Babcock'n Annual Report.
Superintendent of Common Schools Babcock
has announced to the teachers of the depart
ment that his annual report is. now ready for
distribution,* and special attention is called to
the report of the committee of fifteen; to the
report of the Commissioner of Education" on
the sanitary condition of the schooihouses; to
Lobeneula, who captured the last race of
the day over a mile and a sixteenth. .--. But
four started, with Yankee Doodle reigning
a hot even I money choice. ■ The favorite,
under wraps, with Benham and Logan at
his side heads, apart, raced abreast almost
to the bend for home. Jones on Loben
gula, who had been trailing behind, then
moved up with ',;. his I mount, and ',- easily
taking the lead straightened for the wire,
won under Fa pull," a ' neck in front of
Benham. The winner's time was 1:48, a
fine performance considering the ease with
which it was ae*J>mplished.
•••'..; Track and Paddock Items.
This will be the closing day of the Cali
fornia • Jockey Club's two weeks' meeting.
Ingleside . track will reopen to-morrow
with a great card and "Ladies' day." as the
special attraction. '
Jockey Heinrichs of Little Pete fame de
parted for St. Louis last evening. Ever
since the exposure* the "St. Louis Garri
son" has been guarded by an employe of
the Morse Patrol Agency, the officials of
the Jockey Club fearing no doubt that the
ruled-off riders or their friends might at
tempt an assault on the ex-friend of the
Chinese plunger.
There was quite a heavy play on Rastus,
who faced the starter for the first time in
the two-year stake. The roan son of Flam
beau, who is a half brother to Tim and Pat
Murphy, was originally named Mike Mur
phy, to denote the relationship probably,
but it did not suit the taste of his esthetic
purchaser at the Palo Alto stock farm sale.
The youngster was slow to get away but
showed a good turn of speed.
Eddie Jones seems to be carrying off the
jockey honors easy. He again rode three'
winners yesterday, including Rowena B,
winner of the stake event.

Another Booming Meeting of the
Growing Howard Republican
Club Last Night.
JJThe Republican County Committee will
meet in Scottish Hall to-morrOw evening,
according to a call issued by Chairman
Manwaring yesterday. ,
At this meeting the matter of the pri
mary election for delegates to the State

fore outlined will be followed, the mem
bers from the Fourth and Fifth Congres
sional districts forming themselves into
separate committees for the official conduct
of tne elections in those districts. The
primary will probably be held within two
weeks.
Republican club meetings throughout
the City are increasing in number. One
of those held last night was the fort
nightly gathering of the Howard Club,
which" has started out with the ambition
and promise of being the banner Republi
can club of the City during the coming
campaign.
The largest hall in Pythian Castle was
packed at the meeting, which was pre
sided over by Frederick Fry. Brief and
snappy speeches were delivered by John
T. Dare, Justice G. C. Groezinger, A. T.
Barnett, W. J. Blattner, Colonel Eddy,
James Field, C. W. Kyle, Fred Eggers,
John W. Koch, F. McGregor, the secre
tary, Thomas F. Graham and others.
The proceedings were further enlivened
and varied by songs rendered by Messrs.
Silver and Wyatt, McCloskey and Mc-
Henry and Webb and Heffernan, who
were accompanied on the piano by Charles
Ward. Waiter Burley's recitations were
another^ feature. Forty new members
were added to the roll.

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 1, 1896.
CALLSTHEM CORMORANTS
Attorney John Flournoy Withers
the People's Home Bank
Directors.
NO LONGER BANK COUNSEL.
He Declares the Board Never Votes
for the Interests of the Insti
tution.
John Flournoy has been retired from
the position of attorney : for the People's
Home Savings Bank, the unfortunate in
stitution that has paid but two dividends
in nearly three years, while a ring in con
trol has grown rich out of the manage
ment.
Mr. Flournoy is only too glad to be
done with the ring.
"I quit the employ of the bank," he
wrote yesterday in his letter of resignation,
'•without a single regret and with the hope
that whatever calamity may hereafter be
fall me and the 10,000 people whose prop
erty is now under your control no fate will
be so unkind as to ever again bring any of
us in intimate contact with you or with
men of your temper aud character."
The depositors without an exception
were anxious for Flournoy to continue as j
attorney of the bank. He himself did not
wish to retain the position, as he could not
agree with, the directors, who, in fact, re
jected his advice in cases to benefit their
friends against the interests of depositors. l
The directors met yesterday and adopted j
a resolution dispensing with Mr. Flour- !
noy's services, j. Dalziell Brown, secre- j
tary of the Safe Deposit and Trust Com- i
panv, which is trustee for 2600 depositors,
appeared with Attorney Bartnett and pro
tested against the action; and besides
there was a petition from 1600 depositors,
representing in all over $1,000,000, against
the removal of the reputable attorney.
Immediately after the meeting Mr.
Flournoy was notified of the change, and
he replied in this interesting fashion, with
hard dings at the board :
March 31, 1896.
Board of Directors of the People's Home Savings
Gkntlemen : 1 acknowledge receipt of
your communication Informing me that you
have passed a resolution dispensing with my
services. I desire to thank George F. Davidson j
and I. J. Truman for their considerate action j
toward me, and I do not wish anything in this
letter to be in any way construed as a reflec- j
lion upon them, In my judgment they are j
the only present directors who have informed j
themselves of the condition of the affairs of !
the bank and who have any adequate concep- |
Hon of the duties of trustees of a bank in liqui
dation.
Your resolution above referred to is as fol
lows :
"As the litigation here of .the People's Home
Savings Bunk is now in such a condition that
a salaried attorney is not necessary, and the
payment of regulary salary to any attorney
would be an unnecessary burden upon the I
creditors of said bank, and as the cases pend- I
ing outside this City are in the hands of local
attorneys that represent said bank, be it there
fore
Resolved, That from and after this date this
board will dispense with the services of John \
Flournoy, Esq., its attorney, and that no regu
lar attorney snail be employed by this board,
and Mr. Flournoy is hereby directed to deliver
to the secretary of the bank all boot's and pa
pers belonging to the bank now in his pos
session." BHif "iff iprHrBBmIBIIB
I am exceedingly amused at your recently
developed anxiety to remove "unnecessary
burdens from the creditors of the bank." I
trust, however, that very few of the depositors
will be found so simple as to be deceived by
such expressions of high regard for their wel
fare, and that still fewer will be so soothed by

your claim of paternal interest that they : will
not discover the real motive of your action.
■-.; Please allow me to inform: you that . "cases
pending outside -of this City are > not in the
bands of local ■ attorneys who represent = the
bank," but that all cases in California are in
my hands, and that I am assisted by local at
torneys, who are paid by me out of ray salary.
I have already ; followed your direction and
have delivered to the secretary all books and
papers in my possession belonging to the bank.
I do - not, however, waive 'my right to ■: com
pensation for this month. ' This matter of de
tail was no doubt overlooked during that great
spasm of economy which forced you not only
to forget facts and agreements, but .to empha
size your solicitous concern for the creditors
of the bank by dispensing with j my services in
the middle of the month and leaving my salary
unpaid. >: , ,.vV--.''.— .:y: \.r,: : A-,.-; '■.-.•-.
As the majority now controlling your board
seldom indorse a measure or vote for a resolu
tion in. the interests of the bank I am con
strained to consider my dismissal as the
highest proof which you could offer that I have
economically and faithfully discharged my
duty as attorney for the People's Home Sav
ings Bank.
1 quit the employ of the bank without a sin
gle regret, and with ; the hope that whatever
calamity may hereafter befall me and the 10,
--000 people whose property is now under your
control, no ; fate will be so unkind as to ever
again bring any of us in intimate contact with'
you or with men of your temper and character.
Yours very truly, . John Flournoy.
"For four months they ' have been try
ing to remove me," said Mr. Flournoy,
"but they could not get even in their dis
reputable lot four votes against me. Messrs.
Truman and Davidson have been in the
small minority. Mr. Truman is well
known in San Francisco, and Mr. David
son, a man of fine? mind, is a son of Pro
fessor Davidson. : The others are George
Stone, William A. Phelps, S. K. Thornton,
William P. Taylor and Captain Freeman.
Taylor was elected to-day. It took me
four months to familiarize myself with the
bank's affairs, he learned enough in four
hours to vote on my removal.
"The directors claimed to have acted on
the score of economy— absolute nonsense;
they never thought of such a thing for a
moment. They claimed there was no ne
cessity for an - attorney, yet : there are 120
suits to be brought against the stock
holders, and: nineteen suits are pending
involving $200,000. This does not include
the ordinary routine of the bank, requiring
advice of counsel daily, nor does it take in
business in Arizona which was done by
local attorneys under my supervision.
The plan is to let the work out to different
attorneys. The institution is managed on
methods of little political clubs, and seems
to be conducted as a semi-political
machine, which is . managed by Stone,
Thornton and Sheehan.

DR. BROWN'S FATE.
It Is, Believed That the Bay. Conference
at Berkeley April 14 Will Expel
Him From the Pulpit.
When the Bay Association and Bay
Conference of the Congregational church
meet at Berkeley April 14 it is confidently
believed that their joint labors will end
Dr. C. O. Brown s career as pastor of the
First Congregational Church. That a
force is slowly gathering against him that
will sweep him away is the expression of
several prominent members.
The committee of five on credentials of
the Berkeley meeting will be in the court
of inquiry. Deacon CalebScudder, Deacon
I. H. Morse and three others not yet
known will compose the committee.
To-night the First Congregational Church
in a body will take up the expulsion and
excommunication of Mrs. Stockton,
charged with trying to extort money from
Dr. Brown. Her pert' letter of resignation
which she wrote to the trustees was
ignored, as the Congregational church
does not receive and consider letters of
resignation from members.

REGENTS CONSIDER SITES.
Tenders of Land ; for the Wil
merding School of
: Trades.
OFFER OF THE LICK TRUST.
Delegations Given Thirty Days to
Amend Pending Proposi
tions.
The Board of Regents of the State Uni
versity, at a special meeting held yester
day at the Mark Hopkins Institute of Art,
to consider l sites for -She Wilmerding
school, listened to delegations represent
ing San Francisco, Alameda and San Joa- :
quin counties. The Regents attending
were Governor* Budd, Hallidie, Martin,
Houghton, Jeter, Wallace, John E. Budd,
Marye, Chase, Reinstein, Phelps, Black,
Lynch, Rodgers, Slack, Foote and Hell
man.' ' ' - ■';.>'- \-
The introduction of the new Regent, the
Governor's brother, John E. Budd, was
brief.
The report of the special committee on
sites for Wilmerding school, which was
submitted at the last : meeting' 'and laid
over, was taken up and read by J. West
Martin. Seventeen offers are enumerated,
which embrace tenders from San Fran
cisco, San Leandro, Redwood City, Berke
ley, Fruitvaie, Oakland, . Lorin, Lakeport
and Stockton.
The report of ; the committee recom
mends the acceptance of the Teraescal site,
and for the purpose of getting the question
properly presented, J.' West Martin moved
the adoption of the report.
Alfred Bouvier then addressed the board,
advocating the selection of > a site in San
Francisco. He spoke as a representative
of the State Development Committee.
James D. Phelan read a memorial from
a joint committee of I the Merchants' Asso
ciation, Chamber of Commerce, Mechanics'
Institute, the Art Association and State
Development Company. The memorial is
signed by James 0. Phelan, Alfred Bou
vier, Henry J. Crocker. Joseph «'M. Leg
gett, Hugo D. Keil and J. Richard Freud.
The conclusions of the memorial are:
First— A trades school should be located
where it will do the most good.
Second— That in this view San Francisco is
the most desirable location. And, -
Third— That the Regents' and the Lick
trustees, acting : independently, yet in har
mony, have it lv their power, to provide a great
trades school; but if these forces are divided
two schools will result, both inefficient and in
adequate. '.'..
Therefore, we urge upon the . wisdom of the
Regents to confer with the Lick trustees, and
if arrangements as to site cannot be satisfac
torily arranged on .the land ; of the Lick
trustees, which is large enough for both, then |
this committee will seek a site in the neighbor
hood and offer it to the Regents. ; But the sug
gestion of the Lick trustees to make arrange- I
ments whereby a building now owned by j
them, but insufficiently equipped, shall be i
enlarged and made, exclusively a working j
trades school and called the Wilmerding i
School, having an independent faculty, will,
with least expense and .greatest * efficiency,
fullill the noble object of the trust established
by J. C. Wilmerding, a San Francisco citizen
and merchant during the forty years of his
career in the metropolis, where his wealth was
accumulated and to which he owed everthing
for the favors of his fortune.
The question then came up as to the
power of the Lick trustees to amalgamate.
Judge Wallace spoke on the subject, which
called out the suggestion that the ques
tion should be referred to j the . law com
mittee. : • i
Horace Davis of the Lick board of trus
tees came in while r the point was under
discussion. It was his judgment that the
power to combine the Lick School with
another institution was not denied in the
trust. He said: "We have built a school:
It is a success, and we go right along
whether we co-operate ., or not, but we
think we can do better and broader work
by co-operating. We do not ; propose that
you should be our tenants. We should
like to have you come and acquire prop
erty in our neighborhood. ;• We have had
experience and you can share the benefit
of that experience." "
; It was explained further in detail that
the course .of instruction could be ex
tended from fourteen branches now taught
to twenty-two, and furtli3r, that 250 pupils
of the Wilmerding School could be main
tained at :80 per cent of ' the ; income of
$400,000, and therefore experience to guide
the Regents in the future could be ac
quired without the sacrifice of any part
of the bequest. The $400,000 remaining
intact would , be increased by 20 per cent
of the income. _ : , "
Mr. Dohrmann, in,- addressing the
Regents, held that any experiment that
could be made without investing a large
portion of : th bequest in buildings and
lands should be commanded. The school,
he said, was not land and buildings, but
education. _'_. - •
The San Francisco committee was given
thirty days to submit other 1 propositions.
The offer pending was referred to the law
committee of. Regents— Rodgers, "Wallace
and Foote. '.-.' : ■ .-. •
In answer to . inquiries from Governor
Budd, James D. Phelan said the San Jose
proposition! offering land 'near the Hotel
Vendome, was still open. *- '
The Stockton committee, consisting of I
H. J. Corcoran, P.' B. Fraser, L. D.Woods,
James Marsh. H. C. Shaw and Mrs. James
Gillis. was next heard, - >~
• Mr. Corcoran! the chief spokesman, pre
sented his case with force and clearness.
The proposition pending as he understood
it was to give the San Francisco boy, who
now ~. has the chance to learn ;, fourteen
trades in the Lick ; School, the further
chance to learn twenty.two in a combined
school. What he desired was to give the
country boy a chance to learn one trade.
"If you want to help your poor boys in
San Francisco do , • away v with trades
unions." : '.];:■■■■ % '";';'■}- ;i':Y'\'f '"-*;■
Mr. Corcoran likened San Francisco to a
tcll-gatherer at the sea. The money was
gathered from the interior and; some of it
should be returned. He assured the re
gents that if- necessary public spirit of
Stockton . would - provide money for the
buildings in addition to the land. ;
• Mrs. Gillis spoke of .'the demoralizing in
fluences of metropolitan life on the coun
try youth, and t mentioned the advantages
to the boy which country home would
afford. ,! » ;.' I '.' ; i f>';/* ■•'■>,';• \'~'i : -
William R. Davis, leader of the 'Alameda
delegation, then made a lucid explanation
of the pending ' propositions from that
county. He' spoke of the population' of
110,000 people there, and of the three ex
isting, trade schools in San ; Francisco,
which has 'a population of • 350,000. To i
place the fourth school in, San Francisco
apd give none ;to Alameda County would
be unjust. ; He V thought * that - there was
danger of k the great nniversity /becoming
topheavy on the Francisco side.
Governor Budd raised the point that the
law, now : required a : school 'of mechanics'
arts to ; be '■'. established at ; the :, university,
and to place the AVilmerding'school there
would be giving Alameda (t County two
schools of industrial art. : ; Vrl. ■ A
. The " Oakland i committee, consisting ■ of
W. R. Davis, P. E. Bowles and -R. M. Fitz
gerald, were given thirty days' > time, the
same as \ was given to "Stockton and San
Francisco, to supplement the offers.
'•! Regent Rodgers \ said ?he V had ', recently
talked with William Alvord and had 1 rea
son to hope from that convocation that a
brother of the late Mr. Wilmerding would
add to the . donation, as " there was a sur
plus in ; the estate -. for division. In . Ger- :
many, there : ' was > a Wilmerding .. chool
founded by one of the testator's ancestors^'
; M Rodgers said : "I th ink it is proper
and wise for.the board to -solve now not
to affiliate "the Wilmerding ■ School with
any other school. |'i We should declare it to
he our '■ policy to carry out expressly the
trust confided to us." \.' ; ' V ' •"■■*' ' '.".
Mr. Rodgers introduced : a . resolution in
line with his remarks, but it was not con
sidered proper in view of the fact that the
board had given the San Francisco repre
sentatives thirty days' time, and had re
ferred; their proposition -to the law com
mittee.
On motion of Superintendent Black, the
principals of Pasadena Poiytechnical
School, the Cogswell, Lick and San Fran
cisco Poiytechnical schools were invited to
come before the regents at the next meet
ing. .;-:, •-■:■..
General : Houghton spoke of the proba
bility that the Pioneer Woolen-mills prop
erty in San Francisco, embracing large
and substantial buildings, might be offered
as a site for the school. ;.
Further consideration of the subject was
deferred until the regular meeting on the
second Tuesday in May.
New Irish-American Hall.
There was a large gathering of; those Inter
ested in the erection of an Irish-American hall
in this Cltv at the meeting of delegates from

night. It was decided to issue stock for $250,

He denied emphatically the statements
made against him by his wife and pub
lished in yesterday morning's Call, to the
effect that he had deserted her and left
her penniless, and that Mrs. Minnie An

time as he.
Mrs. Andrews in person denied that she
had been out of the City, and denounced
the insinuations of Mrs. Barton that any
thing other than platonic friendship ex
isted between her and the evangelist.
She admitted that she had visited Mr. Bar
ton at his home for the purpose of getting

collect the insurance money due her from
the death of her husband. .
Mr. Barton complained that '- his . wife
was continually running him in debt, not
withstanding that he. used to give her all
his money. Before he left this City about
a month ago he gave all: the furniture and
household goods to his wife, and she de
manded the key of the house from him,
thus virtually turning him out of doors.
He said that bis wife never worked
while he was with "her, but that she spent
her; time gadding about and' talking spir
itualism.: He was obliged last June, he
said, to advertise in The Call warning
tradesmen not to furnish her any credit
on his account.
He also contradicted the statement of
Rev. M. V. Meserve, pastor of the Union
square Free Baptist Church, to the effect
that Barton took a contract for repairing
the church and did the work unsatisfac
torily. The contract, he- said, had been
taken by Mr. Van Nortdel, Barton's part
ner in the carpentering and building busi
ness. Mr. Barton worked on the job and
Van Nortdel received the money.
The evangelist denounced . as utterly
false his wife s statement that he told her
she could make $500 by representing her
self as Mrs. Baddin. He also said that
the statement in the dispatch from Santa
Rosa to the effect that his uncle was at the
Palace Hotel in this City was a mistake.
It was the uncle of Mrs. Elizabeth Ayer,
secretary of Mr. Barton's society.
Mrs. ■ Ayer . also returned from Santa
Rosa and the work of further evangeliza
tion will be proceeded with in this City, it
