VERDICT
OF GUILTY
FOR JENKS
Positive Belief that the Court
Recommends Dismissal
From the Service.
TLEA ■ FOR U6HTEI SEMEME.
Findings of the Courtniartial
May be Forwarded to Gen
eral Warfield To-Day,
FIFTEBI DAYS FOR IEFLECTIOI.
Priends of the Accused Sought for
Recommendation of Censure and
Suspension Only.
The members of the National Guard
court-martial appointed to consider il:e
charges against Captain Jenks, have
p.greed on their findings, ".ud will probably
forward tbeir report 10 Brigadier-General
Warfield to-day. The captain was tried 0:1
three charge.- — neglect of duty, disobe
dience of orders and conduct prejudicial
to good order and military discipline.
While the findings are not officially
known, it is believed that a majority of
the court found him guilty on each count.
It is believed also mat tue punishment
recommended is more than suspension
and censure. Many rumors are afloat to
the effect that the accused had strong
friends on the court who interceded in his
behalf, but the impression is hied that
the majority was not swayed by the plead
ings fcr clemency on account of the
officer's youth and inexperience.
Dismissal from the service with censure
i- thought to be the verdict which will be
made known officially :n a day or two. It
is know:; that a strong plea was ni3(ie for
a long term of suspension in lieu of u;s-
The extreme penalty that a court-mar
tial can inflict or rec >nitrnnd for infliction
is tiittt an otticpr shall De cashiered and
dishonorably expelled from the service.
Shoull judgment of this character be
i by tne court and receive the ap
proval 01 the brigade commander the ac
ccsed would be deprived ol his rights 01
insuip and forever disqualified from
holding any position in the Nat onal
Guard. While Captain Jenks' offence
Beems to be regarded a-- serious, it is sur
mised that his youth, and the fact that he
<!iii not comprehend the magnitude of the
offence, induced tiie court to wituhold the
extreme penalty.
Ihe court-martial to hear- the charge
ngaintt Captain Jenks was selected by
General "Wariield, commanding the Sec
ond Brigade, and tne findings of the court
mutt go to him for approval or disap
proval. Should the judgment of the court
be contrary to his conceptions of right
aud justice, from a military point of view,
lie may set it aside and order a new cotirt
to convene. Otherwise he may approve
the finding?. The regulations allow h 111
lateen days' time 10 consider the findings
and form his own judgment.
La~t Monday night the member? of the
court practically agreed on their findings.
Tie voting was done in the usual form,
the youngest officer in rank first exprefs
ins his judgment. Yesterday the fin l
mgs were prepare!. Captain Jenks w:is
a visitor at .Brigade headqaarters yester
day after:u <>-. His friends hope that the
verdict of tue court will in a measure ex
onerate him.

The Supreme Court has decided against.
the California Improvement Company in
the case in which it nought to recover the
value of a lot ol street woik done in the

books oi this State a statute wbich pro

On April It. 1891, first publication of award
of t:.« contract in question was made.
The tenth day tlierea.ter was Sunday, and
on Monday the Superintendent of streets

UNION PRINTERS MAY GO
The "Chronicle" Compositors
May Be Ordered Out on a
Strike Soon.
The Employment of Non-Union Ster
eotypers Is the Cause of
the Trouble.
There is likeiy to be trouble soon in the
composiug-rooma of the Chronicle. The
dialers employed in getting out that pa
per, together with the union stereoiyper?,
may be ordered out on strike unless the
wishes of the union stereoiypers are com
plied with in the matter affecting the dis
charge of n-union men in the stereo
typing department.
Tiie stereotyjjers claim that they have
a just grievance against the proprietor of
that paper, inasmuch as non-union men
are employe! in the department, which
they ciairn is in violation of the rales of
their organization.
The man complained of is the foreman
of the stereotypes and the union men in
the office object to having to work under;
a man win) is not a member of their
union. They went to Mr. McCarthy, the
foreman, and attempted to iersuade him
to join t ie union, but he turned a deaf
ear to their cppeals. A short time ago a
committee from the steieotypers called
upon the manager. of the paper to lay the
matter before him, but the reception they
met was like a breeza from the Klondyke.
They say ihat they were not only treated
eoldiv, but were** actually snubbed, the
manager refusing to listen to their com
plaint.
The stereotypers claim that they should
hnve been given a hearing, inasmuch as
the foreman is supplying the office with
men who are not members of the union.
They laid the matter before the State or
ganizer of the union, who has written a
letter embodying all the facts to the ex
ecutive committee of the International
Typographical Union at Indianapolis. A
reply 13 expected about the early part of
next week, when it is believe 1 that the
union printers wih join with tne stereo
typers in a walkoiu. 'lhis action will
surely be taken if the execuiive committee
of the TypocriiiiuicatUmon d- ems that the
atereotyper.-* have a jusi grievance against
the proprietors of the Chronicle.
In speaking of tne matter yesterday one
of tne ollicers of the local Typographical
Union said :
"Of course I cannot say just what action
will be taken until we hear from Indiana.
If we are authorized to join with the
stereotypes we va^ out of ihe
Chron cle office together. The Stereo
typeis' Union is a branch of the Typo
graphical Union, ana what affects one
must necessarily affect the other to a
certain extent. I Delieve that the stereo
tvpers have a just grievance, for
the foreman of that department Will
not join the union. Not only that,
but I have been told that ne
is supplanting the union men with non
union workers. Tuere is a principle in
volved here which 1 believe the union will
uphold. We will hear !r>>ni headquarters
about the fir.-t of the week, and then we
will know just what action the iocal
union will i«ke In the matter, if we are
advised to take up the fight we will do so
and will call the men out."
Another prominent member of the or
ganization s iid that he ueliaved that t!ie
printers will be ordered out on strike un
til the grievances of the stereotypers are
li-tened to. If that is done the strike will
involve about seventy-five or nighty men.

THE FOOTPAD PLIES
HIS TRADE AGAIN
Edward Cleary Sandbagged on
Guerrero Street and Louis
Kummer Knocked Down
in Berkeley.
Burglars are not the only criminals who
are keeping the detectives 'n hot water.
The gentlemen who wield the aandbaz are
also making things Hveiy for the beiated
pedestrian.
Edward Cleary, an old gentleman liv
ing at 23 Morris avenue, has been con
tined to his bed since last Thursday night,
due to sn unexpected meeting with two
footpads.
About 8 o'clock he was on Guerrero
street, between Nineteenth and Twen
tieth, intending to call upon a sick friend
living on that block. He was dressed in
broadcloth and ins heavy cold chain
could easily be seen restinc upon his vest.
The lootpads evidently thought he was a
"good thing," and unknown to him they
steaitnily followed him.
He was looking for the number of his
friend's house when he instinctively frit
that some on<» was close to him. He
turned his head and ju«t then lie was
filled to the ground by a vioient blow on
the forehead with d. sand bag.
Fortunately for him two ladies hap
pened to make th^ir appearance on the
block and the footpads disappeared, leav
ing him lying senseless on the sidewalk.
When lie recovered consciousness the two
ladies were bending over him, and they
assisted him so rixo to his feet, iiloou
was ii iwing from a Ion:', deep wound on
bis ioreheail, ami he wa-t weaK and dazed.
Ail iiiea of calling upon bis friend was
knocked out of liis h j ad, and he was led
by the ladies to a oassing car to go dome.
He felt so Dad from ttie blow that he
ainiost lost consciou-ness on the car and
did not know where he was until the con
ductor roused him «t the ferry terminus.
He was taken back to Morris avenue, and
a i)as*enger led Him to his home.
Dr. Morgan was summoned, and it was
thought at first that the old man's skull
was I'racured, but happi'y it was not.
There was a lump as b.g as his list on liis
forehead, and lie suffered considerably
from the shock to his system.
The police wore notified, but as neither
he nor the ladies could give any descrip
tion of the footpads there is little chance
of their capture.
"Ii was my first experience with foot
pads." said McOieury yesterday, "and I
hope it will be my last. 1 had luy gold
watch in my Docket, and I suppose the
gold chain aitracted the attention of the
footpads. I think the blow was aimed ht
the back of my tiead. bat as I happ ned
to turn niv head 1 got it on the forehead.
I remembered nothing more till I saw
the ladies bending oTsr me."

Ex - Superintendent of Public

Education.
CANDIDATE FOR CUTER RUSH DOWNED
An Obstreperous Visitor Who Was
Suppresed by the Adonis of
Teachers.
There is agitation in pedagogical circles ;
things are turbulent and tempest tossed.
The educational industry in this town has
been dealt a foul blow. It wasn't a solar
plexus swipe; on the contrary, it was
dt-ait in the night when crime stalks
abroad and the mercenary are at work.
Madison Babcock is the Adonis o: ed
ucational instruction in this State. He
is a much handsomer man than Dr. Mar
tin Kellogg of the State University or Dr.
David S.arr Jordan of Stanford. His
erudition is comprehensive, deep and
thorough. He is, succinctly putting it,
an educator.
Now when Andrew Jackson Moulder
died in harness Madison Babcock, being
Assistant Superintendent of PuDlic In
struction in tiiis town, was appointed by
the Board o! Education Superintendent of
the Public Schools.
At this time Madison Babcock was
creased with humane ideas. They per
meated his being like th ■ mysterious
Louis Rummer, a machinist living at
40H Third s'reet, is the latest victim of
footpads. Last Thuisday night he went
to Berkeley to visit a friend. While wait
ing for the return train he was atiacked
by two men who, at the point of a pistol
commandel him to give up his valuables.
Kumnier grabbed the weapon and in the
i siruggle that ensued he was knocked
down and securely held. The robbeis
then relieved him of a watch and chain
and $8 in silver. Before leaving their vic
| tim one of the men struck him over the
he&d preMirnab y with the revolver. The
force of the b:ow rendered him uncon
scious and when he awoke some time
l?.'fir the robbers had disappeared.
K.imnier, after considerable difficulty,
managed to catch a train and came to ttie
city.
In the struggle his left hand was ter
ribly injured, ;ind as it gave him consid
erable troubie he at once visited the Re
ceiving Hospital. Dr. Tormey, who ex
amined his hand, found that several of
the bones had bren broken, presumably
by coming in contact with the robber's
pistol.
Last nient Kumnier visited police
headquarters and told the story of the
robbery to Captain Bohen. 11s claimed
that one of his assailants was ratuer tall
a:id the other was They both wore
slouch hats, which partly concealed their
ieatures. He, however, noticed thai ihe
robler who held the pistol to his head had
a tight mustache and a growth of beard
ab^ut a week old.
Kummer believes he will be able to
identify the taller man in case he is ar
rested.
On the "Inquisition."
Rev. J. P. Ferguson will lecture in Metropol
itan Hail this evening for the benefit of the
armory and uniform fund of Company C,
League of the Cross Cadets. The subject of the
lecture will be "The Inquisition." Among
the interesting numbers on the programme
will be specialties by Master Arnold Grazer, a

contention of conscience actuates the
giver at a donation Dariy.
Superintendent Babcock, notwithstand
ing the views he may have entertained in
the introduction of heart culture in the
schools of the city, was strenuously op
posed to corporal punishment. He assev
erated that the infiic;ion of oodily punish
ment upon the pupil was egregiou-ly
wronc; Uiar it tuwarted his growth,
soured his disposition and rendered less
impressionab.e on the mind the mathe
matical problem and the complex solu
tion oi twice two, whether it is or are
f o v r.
In the course of fleet-winged time Mr.
Babcock had a heated discussion with
Reginald H. Web ter as to who should
have charge of the methods of molding
the plastic mind of the youngster and
teach it to soar athwart of the intellectual
sky and out and on in the intellectual sea.
Babcock was routed in the court-.
Subsequently Babcock became principal
of the franklin Evening Scho<>!. His
pupils were refractory, and Madison
lound that bis pet theories concerning
corporal punishment were as elusive as
Jim Rea ; s hopes of becoming Governor.
He discovered that it was one thine to
advance a theory and another to put it
into successful execution.
The pupils of th«" Franklin Evening
Scho.ol Mr. Babcock found were boisterous
and frequently obstreperous. He became
im pressed with the idea that something
drastic should be done.
Babcock concluded to act. Brushing
aside bis pet theories oi corporal punish
ment, he did act.
The storm broke over educational cir
cies one evening recently. It came in a
cloudburst. And instead of there being a
"hot time in O.d Town io-nighi" tiiere
was a hot time at Vie session of the
Franklin Evening School.
On this particular niant one of Mr. Bab
ccck's pupils invited a companion to be
present. He was there and he figured
conspicuously in the proceedings. Now,
the pupil's friend is a lusty young fellow,
strong of limb and niu-cle and a candidate
(or center tush in a local football team.
ri'- joined in the march which preceded
the recitations of the evening. There was
aloud, resonant sound a* foot after foot
was planted on tne floor. The noise was
wildly emphatical and jarrine; it mysti
fied the cause of education and was a re
flection on good government.
Now, Mr. Buhcccs believe* in discipline
even iv the Franklin Evening School. To
1 maintain decorum he jerked the nuest of
one ol his most promising pupils from the
ranks and proceeded to lambaste him. The
visitor resented the treatment. He, too,
was opposed 10 corporal punishment
Now, those who paid $2, $3. ?.-> and $10
to witness the Goddard-Sharkey fizzle,
should have been at the Franklin Even
ing School when Madison Babcock, in the
cause of higher education, yanked that
visitor from the ranks ol pupils.
Every blow known to tb<^ pugilistic pro
fession was exhibited. There were left
and right swings, feints and parries, up
percuts. drives and s-runsbe-. Mr. Bab
cock clearly demonstrated that he not
only po-ist-s^ed book Knowledge but was
well up in ring tactics.
He licked his man.

"I guess it is all up with me, 1 ' remarked
the unfortunate man to Turnkey Hickey.
"G.ve me a place to sleep and Jet me die

Touched by Ins pitiful appeal the

as the "home lor the friendless."
Thompson's homo is in New York.
Shortly alter tne war he fell heir to a large

About six months ago, being penniless

•Supervisor Kottanzi Issues an

Objections Made by the City and County
Hospital and Other In
stitutions.
Dr. T. A. Rottanzl has iisued an order
to all the ciiy public officers which has
caused considerable comment, and at the
Ciiy and County Hospital especially.
The SuDervisor, as chairman of the
finance committee, has issued orders that
the Sunset Telephone Company should
not connect with the telephones in the vari
ous offices, so now :t tuere is any message
that musi no to Onkland, San Maieo, etc.,
the employes of thia and that office must
go to some near-by public telephone.
If a patient at the City and County
Hospital aiea and his relatives happen to
live out oi town tbe deceased will either
have to be buri:d at the expense of the
city or some officer will have to telephone
at his own expense.
There can be po connection between the
Western Union office and the offices so
that they will not be able to telephone for
them to send messages. The reason for
this is claimed to reduce expenses, ai
thoueh the bills for extra telephoning at
the hospital has never exceeded $100 per
niont.':.

TO OPEN
WIDE THE
DEATH GATE
A Tramway Will Soon
Cross the Icy Chil
coot Summit.
THE CARRIER M)W BEIM BOLT.
Pacific Coast Steamship Com
pany Is the Promoter of
the Scheme.
WILL ESTABLISH A THROUGH ROUTE.
In Consequenc3 This Port Will Have
an Advantage Over All
Competitors.
That icy gate of death, C hilcoot Pass,
that bars from the outside world the
treasures of the Klondike, will soon be
unlocked by the works of man, and the
terrors of t c fur north will in a great
measure cease to be. A small army of
men is at prespnt building a tramway over
the summit of the mountains thatline the
pass, and within a few months provisions
and go'd-se kers can be carried and landed
safely on the level plains that stretch to
Dawson City and reach the land of wealth
without d ffieulty.
The Paciiio Coast Steamship Company
is the promoter of the enterprise. Al
though under the course of reorganization,
that company, whose business head
quarters are in this city, has determined
that San Francisco shall not lose the
trade of the cold regions to the business
men of the Puget Sound ports. In conse
quence it lias determined to expend a
larg» amount of money building a tram- {
way, that good- and paa-engers from tins j
port may lie landed at 'heir destination '
at any season of the year.
Several month- aco T. Jefferson Coo
lidge and John T. Waterbury, New York
capitalists and prime movers in the reor- i
ganization of the Oregon Improvement
Company, which is the groaien stork
bolder in the Pucific Coast Steamship !
Company, conceived the idea of building i
the tramway. The idea was communi
cated to C. J. Smith, receiver of the com
pany during its reorganization, and the
work of building the tramway was in
augurated. Considerable work has already i
been done. A f-w days pgo the steamer j
Corona sailed from Tacnia witn extra :
supplies, niiin «nd material on board to i
complete the erection of the tramway.
Within two months after the arrival os
the s'eamer at Juneau the carrier will be
completed and the company will be ready
to start operations.
The tramway will be built about a mile
in length at the present time and will
cross the most precipitous part of the
pass in tne region of Dyea. From the end I
of the tramway it will be bnta short dis- '
tance to the lower end of Lake Bennett,
which will leave the trail practically an
open one to the gold fie'ds. Thi-t will as
sure free ingress and egrejs to the district
and will open communication to the out
side world in such a manner that those
who have friends within will be able to I
communicate with them, no matter at
what season of the year nor how severe the '
weather.
In the opinion of the management of
the Pacific Coast Steamship Company the
venture will pit ye a paying one. This
opinion is aiso shartrt by many business
men in this city, who bise their belief on
ttie fact that this will give the promoters
of the scheme at least one year's advant
age over ail competitors. Anotuer point
that manifests success is that all people
who are aware of the work of the com
pany in liberating their friends from the
dangets of the Arctic regions will patron
ize the company whptheror not an oppo
sition is ready to likewise accommodate
them.
