Been Alerted.

Special Dispatches to The Moesiso Call.
Los Axgeles, June 23.— At 12:50 o'clock
this afternoon, Southern Pacific freight
train No. 21, from San Francisco East
bound, in two sections, coming down the
mountain near the south side of this county,
when the engineer of the forward section
saw a hand-car on the track, on which were
Section Foreman Jack Sullivan and seven
men on their way to Soledad Canyon to
work en a bridge. The engineer
■lowed up, and the men then took
the liana-car off the track and al
lowed the train to pass. They failed,
however, to notice the flag at the end of the
train warning them that another sec
tion was close behind. The men re
placed the hand-car on the track and
proceeded on their way for five minutes
when, on a hi.h trestle, the locomotive of
the second section appeared, coming around
• curve only a few rods ahead.
The hand-car men became panic-stricken
■nd the entire party of eight leaped from
the trestle to the ground below, a distance
of fifty feet. Four were badly injured. Jack
Sullivan, the foreman, had his breast bruised
and right arm broken, but will probably
recover. John Murray bad his back broken,
and is dying. William Smith had his skull
fractured and received other Injuries,
and cannot recover. Furlong had his
shoulder mangled and received internal in
juries which will result fatally. The other
lour escaped with severe bruises.
The trestle from which the men jumped
spread out on each side for a considerable
distance and four of the men above
named did not jump far enough
from it, their injuries being caused
by striking the wood-work in their fall,
rebounding and again striking the timbers.
The four who escaped fatal injuries jumped
far out and landed safely in the soft saud
at the foot of the trestle.
The injured men were all brought to this
city on a freight train and taken to the
Sisters* Hospital. Murray, Smith and
Furlong are not expected to live
until the morning. The saddest
part of the affair is that the accident might
have easily been averted, had not
the men on the hand-car been com
pletely beside themselves with fright.
Conductor Sturgeon of the freight train
iays his train was only going at the rate of
six or seven miles an hour, and he suc
ceeded in stopping it before the
engine reached the hand - car. There
was no occasion for the leap from
the trestle, even had the train been coining
at a rapid rate, as they could easily have
clung to the timbers till the cars passed,
Instead of taking such a terrible leap.
BASE-BALL TRANSFER.
Report That The Stockton Club Will Locate
4__fl in Sin Jcse.
San* Jose, June 22— The Herald states
this afternoon that the Stockton Base-ball
Club is to be transferred to San Jose.
Coughlin and Sharpe of Stockton were in
San Jose last week and made a proposition
to transfer the club to this city if suftable
grounds were secured. J. H. Henry of the
Electric Railroad accepted the proposition
and is now attempting to secure grounds on
the Alameda, which will be fitted up in a
superb manner. The lovers of base-ball in
this city are greatly elated over the pros
pect. Business men generally will assist
In meeting all the requirements for the
transfer. It is stated that $1500, in addi
tion to the grounds, is required for the
transfer of the franchise of the Stocktons,
but this is not verified. It is probable, if
this is so, that the money will be ready
when the transfer is made. It is the inten
tion to strengthen the club by the addition
of other first-class players as soon as San
Jose secures the franchise. There will be
-bo failure on the part of Mr. Henry to se
cure the grounds and fit them up in the best
manner, as he is one of the most enterpris
ing citizens of the Garden City.
Stockton*. June 23.— A proposition to
buy the Stockton Base-ball Club came from
San Jose people recently and Director
Sharp went to see them. He made a prop
osition on a cash basis, which they have
till the Ist of July to accept. The amount
Is said to be about £3000. Lack of support
Of tie club has somewhat discouraged the
managers of the Stocktons. There is a
vigorous objection to the sale, and if the
local magnates will decide to keep up the
< home team the cranks will go to the park
in droves.
DEMURRERS OVERRULED.
Decisions Be_d*red in San Jose Cases Tried
in Redwood City.
Redwood City, June 23.— Judge Fitz
patrick overruled the demurrers in two
cases against the city of San Jose to-day,
which had been transferred to this county.
The suits were brought to declare void con
tracts let for lighting streets and public
buildings on the grounds of fraud. The city
claimed that the Common Council had the
right to let whatever contracts it pleased,
provided proper steps were taken. The
court denies this and decides that it has a
right to determine whether a contract is
honest and made in good faith for the beni
fit of the city. The decision maintains in
effect the right of the courts to inquire into
the actions of City Councils.

tion Company were profiting by her.

BOODLE IN BOSTON.
Alfred S. F/tssett, the Alleged Senatorial
Broker.
The uproar in the Massachusetts Legis
lature over the bill granting a charter to
the West End Elevated Railroad gives an
unpleasant prominence to State Senator

Sloat Fassett of the New York State Sen
ate, and is engaged in business at Great
Barrington, Mass., where he has been a
Senator for two years; lie" was a mem
ber of the State House of Representa
tives in 1884 and 1885, and is connected
with the Great Barrington Savings In
stitution as a member of the Board of
Trustees. According to Senator Fassett he
was approached by Dr. J. C. Moore of the
Manchester (N. II.) Union, who offered
810,000 each lor ten or twelve Senators'
votes for a charter for the People's Com
pany. Fassett afterward voted for the

by, ex-Governor Long and William C. Rus
sell were the legal advisers. The People's

On Sunday evening Miss St. John and the

An Old Gem Newly Set.
The Alcazar had the only new opening
last evening in Mr. Peter Baker's "Chris
and Lena." a piece that some, from its
name, might call a chestnut; but only in
name, for it has been changed in its busi
ness and text, and in its specialties through
out. At any rate, the house was crowded
to the doors, and Baker was received
with what may be called a cyclonic
welcome. He is looking ad young and
Mr. Peter Baker.
moves quite as actively as when he whs
here with Farren in 1881, and some friends,
recognizing this fact, sent him a stand of
lovely flowers, on which it was recorded in
the choicest blooms. The play is replete
with the characteristic pathos ana humor
that has long made it a favorite with the
American public, and the company en
caged to interpret it are full of "go" from
first to last. Baker himself is the same
card in his funny passages and ills songs,
and Is ably supported in the musical way
by John Sheehan and Miss Josie
Sisson, who assumed the part of Lena. In
fact, the music is the main strength of the
piece, and it would not be far out of the
way to call it an operatic drama. The songs
caught the audience closely and round after
round of applause followed each. Some dis
appointment was felt at the non-appearance
of little Irene Franklin, the five-year-old
child, in her specialties, songs and dances.
But lie Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Children Interfered
and enjoined her absence from the stage.
The child, a vigorous and ambitious
juvenile, is disconsolate that she cannot
show her acquirements before our public,
especially when the Fauntleroy young
sters, who had to study hard, were not
Interfered with, and in her case she lias but
to follow her childish instincts to sing and
dance. Instead of being a hardship to her,
the light merry business she has to do
would only be a delight.
The California
Pursues the even tenor of its way with
"The Homestead," which has brought the
old-fashioned folk in the community to the
center, like a town-meeting was wont to do
in the ancient times of Swanzey, N. 11.,
where the rural action of the play is laid.
How commonplace it all is, hut at
the same time how interesting! Man
agers may sometimes err in their
calculations that people are 'hungering
and thirsting after something new.
Here is the simple daily routine of a New
England farm-house as it was time out of
mind, with the incidents of a town visit by
old Josh to restore a truant son, and out of
what ought to be considered slender and
negative materials is evolved matter of suf
ficient interest to hold large audiences night
after night in close and almost breathless
attention. The feeling one has in looking
round on the eager faces is expressed in
the old lines:
Backward, turn backward, oh Time, In thy night.
Make — a child again. just for to-ulg tit.
At Ilia, II asli-Slra-et
The quiet, little pastoral drama of "A Long
Lane, or Pino Meadows," was continued
without being seriously, affected by the
Monday "drop." It will be continued for
the rest of the week, when its place will be
taken by Grattan Donnelly's farce culled
"A PAIB OF JACKS,"
In three acts. Donnelly is the author of
"Natural Gas," "Later On," and other
laughable productions. This, his latest
bit of fuu-mnkiug, is under the control of
W. 0. Wheeler. A synopsis of the piece
may be given as follows:
The first scene opens in tho reception
room of Professor Jenkins Queer's Semi
nary for Young Ladies. It is during the
summer vacation, and Hetty Hopes and
Letty Still, pupils, have been left in the
Professor's charge. Professor Queer, who
is a hypochondriac with a mania lor the use
of patent medicines, lias for matron of the
school Pocahontas Smart, who cherishes
designs upon the supposed fortune of the
professor. The matron lias a daughter,
Gioriosa, and a nephew, Smooth Sharp.
The professor also has a nephew, Frank
Forward, who . is in love Willi Zetin, the
lively young maid of all work. Poca
hontas Smart has summoned to the academy
a lawyer. Judge Jack, to make the will of
Professor Queer in her favor. At the same
time the professor's nephew, Frank, has
summoned Dr. Jack to treat the professor
for his ailments. The Judge and the doc
tor arrive on the same day, and being ex
actly similar in appearance and dress, are
naturally confounded for one another.
Judge Jack, being applied to by Professor
Queer for medicine, gives him the only bot
tle he possesses— a flask of Old Crow. Its
effect on the professor is electrical. He
summons everybody, and announces that
he will close up the seminary and take
everybody to a summer sanitarium for
recreation, a medley closing the act, with
Judge Jack and Dr. Jack still unknown to
each other.
The second act Is in the Invalids' Retreat
Mine. Smart is installed as housekeeper,
and is still. endeavoring to secure the pro
lessor's will in her favor. The doctor and
the Judgo appear, and complicate matters
by making violnet love to Hetty, Letty and
Gioriosa, and both the doctor and the Judge
become engaged to each of the three girls.
This complication arises from the fact that
the girls are aware only of the Judge's
presence, and the doctor is continually
taken for the Judge. SS3S*_J"> _SOB
The third act returns to the seminary.
There the fact that there is a Judge and a
' doctor exactly alike in appearance is first
disclosed, and the complications are
straightened out. Pocahontas finally weds
the professor, only to find that the fortune
he is supposed to possess is held by him in
trust for Dollie Dairy in pie, who is sup
posed to be dead. -. It is conveniently shown
that Zetty Is Dollie Dalrymple, and the for
tune belongs to her. She and Frank are
married, the Judge weds Hetty Hopes, the
doctor weds . Letty Still, Gioriosa weds
Smooth '-■ Sharpe, and i Pocahontas \ having
bagged the professor (for ■: which she Is
sorry, since his fortune Is gone), nothing
remains but for the curtain to fa 11 ..-- -...'-

Secretary Boruck Verifies an Interview
Denying It — 3. F. English Says He
Eaa Been Willfully Traduced.
John F. English and Charles Sonntag, the
former of whom is one of the contractors
and the latter one of the Directors of the
State Prison at San Quentln, are Indignant
over a publication in a morning paper in
regard to the nature of the potatoes fur
nished by English for the inmates of the
prison, It was charged that Mr. Sonntag
had used his official position to compel the
acceptance of decayed tubers.
Mr. English was seen yesterday in refer
ence to it, and said : " I can only denounce
it as a willful and malicious falsehood.
The potatoes furnished by me under my
contract were all of the best quality, and
that I can easily prove. I took the contract
a year ago to furnish potatoes to the prison
at 67 "_ cents per hundred pounds, for the
fulfillment of which I was required to give
a bond in the sum of $507 50. Had I so de
sired 1 could have forfeited my bond and
thus have absolved myself from my con
tract, but as a matter of business pride I
preferred to stand to my bargain in spite
of the fact that I was losing from $500 to
£000 a month. Fur the last eight months I
have been furnishing potatoes that ccst me
from $2 to $-2 50 a hundred, and I make it a
point to furnish only the best to be had in
the market. Once I had 100 sacks refused,
and when they were returned I sent for
Mr. Sonntag, who went with me to inspect
them. He found them in good condition,
and my bill was allowed. Frequently, of
course, small amounts were charged back
to me for decayed potatoes. In nearly all
lots of 100 or more sacks there would be 200
or SOO pounds of bad potatoes, and these are
always .weighed and debited against me-
Mr. Sonntag was too strict if anything,
and you can say that so far as I am con
cerned 1 think alt the charges against him
false."
Mr. Sonntag preferred not to be quoted,
as he had already bianded the charges as
infamous. They were so utterly false, he
said, that ho did not care to reply to them.

LOCAL POLITICS.
Various Matters of Interest to
- •..■-- -i
Party Workers.
The Cry Is Still for Open Primaries-Mayor
Backer and the San Jose Conven
tion—Club meeting..
The members of the Republican Execu
tive Committee profess to be congratulating
themselves on the fact that they have al
ready gained a partial victory. They claim
that their only object in inaugurating the
present movement was to secure open pri
maries, "with the ballot-box in sight," and
that the Kelly-Ctimnilns wing of the party
through the County Committee have al
ready announced their intention of conced
ing the point in question. - They will not,
they say, take any one's promise, but will
hold their organization intact until the del
egates to the various conventions shall have
been chosen. In this way, they urge, they
will prevent double dealing and compel the
opposition to give them a fair showing.
Said one of them yesterday: "If they,
give us open primaries, with everything
open and above-board, and then beat us,
we will fall into line and help to elect the
ticket, but If, on the contrary, they adopt
any of their old methods with us, wo will do
all we can to lay them out. They may as
well bear this in mind, lor we are thor
oughly in earnest."
" This kind of talk doesn't amount to
much," said a member of the County Com
mittee. " Those fellows" (indicating the
corner of Stockton and Ellis streets with a
contemptuous nod of his head) " had bet
ter wait until primaries have been denied
them before they make such a' bowl about
it. First they kicked for a certain plan of
- organization, and we took the wind out of
their sails by adopting It. They had noth
ing more in that direction to cry about, and
now they are screeching for primaries. So
far as 1 know it has been the intention
from the first to hold open primaries, and
knowing this lean see no reason for their
constant vaporings about it."

CHOKED IN HEX BED.
Sirs. Margaret White's Charges Against
a Contractor.
Garret Burke was arrested on complaints
sworn out by Margaret White and locked
up in the Seventeenth-street Police Station
last night on charges of battery and dis
turbing the peace. The accused was re
leased on $100 cash boil.
Mrs. White tells rather a peculiar story
that Burke entered her bouse about mid
night on the llth of this month and, com
ing to the bed, where she was sleeping with
her little son, seized her by the throat and
choked her. She screamed for help, wak
ing up her little son, who joined in her
cries. Burke, she says, then choked her
harder, dragged her from her bed to the
floor and threw at her a sewing-uiachino
and a lamp, which latter set lire to the
room.
Becoming frightened at what he had
done Burke threw a pail of water over the
fire, partially extinguishing it, then ran
out and blew a whistle, width summoned
several policemen, who put out the fire,
Burke meanwhile escaping to his own
bouse. Mrs. White further says that Burke
and she bad had a quarrel over a sewer,
which he claimed she had I ordered him to
build and which she refused to pay for.
Burke is a contractor and lives at 1.-'-l
York street.

made his condition known. Officer Green
was called in and took Thoma to the Re
ceiving Hospital, where Dr. Hunker
brought the stomach-pump into immedi

died. The deceased was a native
of Austria and 61 years of age. He was
a brewer by occupation, but in recent years
was unable to obtain employment. Thoma,

ABSOLUTELY PURE
TRIBUTE TO WALT WHITMAN.
Of a Very nigh Nature and Paid by •
Foreigner.
The last edition of the poet Frellij-rath's
works, just published in Stuttgart, contains
these words concernining Walt Whitman:
"A wonderful ; man. We confess that he
moves us, unsettles us, fascinates us. We
must look closely at this new colleague who
threatens to upset our whole ars poetica,
all out esthetic theories and laws. In fact,
when we listen earnestly to his words,
when the deep, sonorous swell of his
stormy rhapsody has become familiar to our
ears, we feel that our customary verse-mak
ing, our pushing of our thoughts into cer
tain traditional fotnis, our foolery with
sound . and harmony, our . counting and
measuring of syllables, our manufacture of
sonnets, strophes and stanzas are petty and
childish. Have we really come to the point
at which poetry demands a new style of ex
pression? Has our day such great things
to utter that the new wine requires new
bottles? Is there a poetry of the future
just dawning as the music of the future
dawned some years ago? Is Walt Whit
man another and greater .Richard Wag
ner?"— Chicago Herald.
