KRUTTSCHNITT ON
FERRY RATES.
Answers a Communication
of the Railroad Com
mission.
PARTIALITY DISAVOWED
Comparison Drawn Between the
Regular and Creek Route
Service.
DEFIANT STREETCAR LINES.
Market Street and Other Companies
Refuse to Acknowledge the Board's
Jurisdiction.
Ju'ius Kruttschnitt, general manager
of the Southern Pacific Company, and
Andrew J. Clunie, are not agreed on the
question of ferry rates between San Fran
cisco and Oakland.
At the last meeting of the Railroad Com
mission Cluuie filed a complaint charging
discrimination on the part of the railroad
corporation in that but 5 cents was charged
per passenger let ween San Francisco and
Oakland on the creek route, while 10 cents
was collected over the regular ferry lines.
He asked that the matter be investigated
and a remedy applied, if his charges
proved true.
At this meeting the matter was referred
to the Southern Pacific Company for an
explanation, and a copy of Glume's com
plaint was forwarded to General Manager
Kruttschnitt. The latter's reply to the
commission follows:
1 am in receipt of a communication from
your Honorable body inclosing copy of letter
addressed to you by one Andrew J. Clunle,
■wherein be recites the provisions 01 Section
21 of Article Xll of tlie constitution of this
btate, claiming that because this company is
encaged in ruunlng a ferry-boat irora the
water front of San Kranciscj to the toot of
Broadway, in Oakland, by the so-culled creek ,
route, at a fare 01 5 cents* per passenger, while
on the route comprising .bcuh ferry and rail
service from San Francisco, via Seventh street
to Broadway, Oakland, the fare charged is 10
cents, said constitutional provisions are there
fore violated.
An examination of the facts stated by the
complainant establisues the fallacy of his con
clusions.
The lines in question, although operated by
the me company, are entirely separate and
distinct by different routes, between different
termini and the transportation is under
different circumstances tu:d conditions. It is
not alleged, nor is it true, that any discrimin
ation whatever is made between persons in the .
us;' of these several routes, nor can there be
any discrimination between places. Both
routes are equally open to any one who chooses
to use either, ami both run between the city of
Oakland and the City of San Francisco.
The service via Scventn street, Oakland, to
Broadway is an expensive one, involving the
use o: s'.eain railroad trains, running into and
upon a costly de;«ot, mole and tracks, whil»
the accommodation given to the passenger is
far superior to any that is possible by the i
creek route, enabling him to stop ill anyone '
of half a dozen stations between the western
limits of Oakland and the station at Seventn
street t'nd Broad ivay. As -to "The reason
ableness of the targe of 10 cents for such a
service, there has been and can be no question.
Even the complainant does not venture the as
sertion that biich a charge is unreasonably
high. Tee creek route Is comparatively
cheap of operation. All it requires is the use
of one ferry-boat, making its Landings and re
ceiving and delivering its passengers at the ■
wharves at the fo:>t of Broadway, Oakland,
end on the water iron! of San Francisco.
It is primarily intended for the use oi teams,
thus avoiding the danger of driving down the
long mole alongside o: moving trains, and
also eventing the overcrowding o: the boats
upon the railroad route by teams, to the in
convenience of the large number of passen
gers transported thereon. Incidentally, pas
sengers are taken on the creek bouts at the low
rate of five cents, but few care to avail them
selves of such transportation. If a passenger
desired to ro via that route to Seventh street
and Broadway, he would be compelled either
to walk seven blocks after arriving at the
whan at the foot of Broadway, or to take a
streetcar, paying therefor the additional fare
of five cents, and if he desired to go to any of
the other stations between Broadway and the
western boundary of the city, be would be sub
ject to lust so much the mote additional
trouble and expense. There is no discrimina
tion at all and the prohibition of the constitu
tion against charging a greater rate for a
shorter distance than for a longer one mani
festly applies to points upon the same route of
transportation, and not to parallel, but sepa
rate routes, over which a passenger has the
unrestricted option to travel, according as he
desire? the greater or less accommodations pro
vided by either.
Several replies have been received by
the commission to the communications
sent to all the street railroads in the State
reque.-ting them to make a report to the
commission of their operations for the
pant year. That from the Market-street
Railway Company, signed by Secretary J.
H. Willcutt, is an follows:
I have the honor In behalf of the Market-
Etreet Railway Company to acknowledge re
ceipt of a communication from your secretary
enclosing copy of an order purporiing to be
made by your honorable board on ihe 14th
day oi April, 1896, relative to the street rail
ways, and requesting certain information
d In such letter.
The Market-3treet Railway Company is ad
i>v its counsel that street railways are not
within the jurisdiction oi the Board of Rail
ommissioners of the H'atc; of California,
i'.t such board is not entitled to demand
or receive the information Bought to be ob
tained by the order above referred to. The Mar
ket-street Railroad Company therefore respect
fully declines to furnish such information.
Similar replies came from the Geary
street, Sutter-street and the Oakland street
railroad companies.
From K. H. Wade of the California
Southern Railway Company the following
self-explanatory letter was received:

WILLIAMS IS DISMISSED.
Official Head of Collector Wise':
Favorite Is Suddenly
Lopped Off.
Inspector Mike Cleary and Louie Quong
Also Scheduled for Permanent
Retirement.
Richard, better known as Dick, Williams,
has been summarily dismissed from the
service of the Chinese bureau where he
served as interpreter for several years
prior to his second indictment on sundry
serious charsres.
The official decapitation of Williams
adds another scalp to the string which
now adorns the belt of Special Agent
Moore and in a measure disposes of the
famous Custom-house scandal. The only
thing remaining is the criminal prosecu
tion against the inspector which is now
pending in the United States District
Court. From present indications, how
ever, it would seem that Williams is likely
to fare badly, though he expresses hiru
self as confident of acquittal.
Tbe dismissal of Wise's right hand
bower is considered in official circles as a
great victory over the Collector for the
special agent. When the charges against
the inspector were first brought to the at
tention of Collector Wise by Moore the
former refused to believe that the allega
tions were true, and declared that there
was a mistake somewhere. On the other
band Moore was no less positive that his
information was correct. The result Mas
a uecided coolness between the two otli
sials, and many sensational reports were
published as a consequence.
The principal point in the affair was the
Interest manifested by Wise for the sus
pected and indicted inspector. Now that
the Secretary has approved the course
adopU'fl by Major Moore, the Collector
feels a bit chagrined. Williams was first
ordered suspended April IC>, but when
Secretary Car; isle had carefully perused
the evidence offered on both sides he de
ciued that dismissal was the proper thing,
and ordered the same, to take eifect irom
the dnte mentioned.
Williams says that he has no official
notice of his dismissal from the service.
"I will say. however, that, whether I am
acquitted or not of the charges now pend
ine in the District Court," said the ex-in
terpreter yesterday, "I will not again enter
the service. There is nothing in it. In
fact, I am tired of the whole thing, and ex
pect to retire as soon as I am acquitted."
Another dismissal that may shortly be
expected is that of Louie Quong, the inter
preter of the Chinese bureau, who is at the
present time also under™uspension. Even
though the Mongol has been temporarily
relieved from duty, he still visits each in
coming steamer, a fact that is considered
most peculiar. Upon good authority it is
said that Louie will be indicted by the
next (irand Jury, which meets in July.
Mike Cleary is also said to be slated for
private lile. Some days ago he was re
tired temporarily because of an assault on
Charles Favor, indicted for personating a
revenue officer. Cleary is supposed to
have been implicated in the fraud, and
whfn Favor was released on bail tne in
spector threatened his life with a pistol.
When the casa was called in the Police
Court Favor failed to appear, and the
charsres were dismissed.
Collector Wise gave it out that Cleary
been fully exonerated and would be at
once assigned to duty. It now develops
that tLe Collector either Duilded wiser
than he knew or else sought an easy
method of letting the inspector down.
Cleary is booked for dismissal, and his
companion Williams has already been
relegated to private life. For the present
Moore triumphs, and Wise sucks his
thumb in silence.
It is given out incidentally from the Col
lector's oitice that the policy of the Gov
ernment is toward retrenchment. Wil
liams' dismissal is purely a monetary
affair they say.
RIGHT OF WAY OPEN.
The Valley Road Han No More Litiga
tion in Prospect This Side of
t 'rrsno.
All obstruction to the rapid construction
of the Valley road through to Fiesno has
been reruoved. The last condemnation
suit was disposed of in Madera yesterday
and .railing and track-laying over the
recently disputed land will shortly becin.
Grading has been aimost completed to
within two miles of the San Joaquin
River. The bridae over the latter is ex
pected to be ready for tracks by the end of
July, and Fresno will probably be reached
by the middle of August.
Tracks have been laid for twelve miles
south of Merced, t tins leaving about
fourteen miles of grading and about forty
five miles of track-laying to be done.
The tracts of land which have been in
litigation in order to obtain right of way
extend for four miles, and it will require
about a week to grade this. Track-laying
v.ill then proceed at the rate of one and a
half to two miles a day.
