truant husband was heard before Alderman
Sepp this afternoon. .- So great was the in
terest, the. case -that the Alderman's of
fice 'was* too J small to. hold the. crowd and
the bearing took place m the Cohrt 'house.
Mrs; Scboen and ; her sons and daughter
persisted-iu'theirassert'mn that- Drumbore
■was no other than Frederick Schpen, and.
tiiathe deserted them In German's .in 1870,
• after living With- her as. husband [ii- several
years. irffd -tiiat: he-t ook with. Film 2000

years' old dad that she came to America
two years Ago. SUe'.did not hear of her al
leged husband b'eingin Allentown until
18(59. when her sun Mold her. that he had
seen him line.. Her daughter also said she
saw liim here- last. April. Pointing to
Drum-bore, she. asserted in most positive
terms.' that .'.he was,: none other .J,hau her
•husband; Frederick Scliben. She described
certain marks, on Sclioen's body,': but, un
fortunately lor her side of the case, Drimi

Mr. Dm pi bore men -called up,:his wit

years prior to Sclioen's. desertion of his

In this county,* and' that since then every
.year he applied fur a, hotel license,. Chief
lof Police Gift of. this city swore that lie
knew Drumbore since 1862 and that he did
not know of his ever beiug out of the cbuu-'

was born in Carbon County In 1840, and
that she had seen him every year since then
and knew tbat he had never been farther
away from this place than New York.
The' weight, of evidence was so over
whelmingly in favor of Drumbore that the
Alderman dismissed the- case of bigamy,
desertion and adultery which Mrs. Schoeu*
br ught against him.
The' counsel for the woijian said that the
prosecution was not brought to extort

The City Marshal has been instructed to

A warrant -has been drawn on tho city
treasury for the purchase of the lot at the
corner of Eagle avenue and Everett street

the property-owners do not seem desirous
of taking any steps "to scrape it. City
Trustee l'eckhani made a motion at the
meeting Monday evening that the Street
Superintendent be instructed to. liave it
cleaned, but the : proposition met with such
strong opposition from the other members
that he withdrew it. A few of the property
owners advocate paving the street with

gave the Greek a black eye and a bruised
nose because he said something displeasing
to his sister, aud a day or two later Dr.

MARRIED ON THE DEEP.
A Ceremony on a Tug With Some
Mystery Attendant.
. About 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon a
young man and woman, accompanied by an
old gentleman with a long whito beard and
wearing a plug hat, visited the Ship-owners'
and Merchants' Towboat office, at the foot
of Vallejo street, and hired a tug to take
them for a trip on the bay. The tug Sea
Queen, Captain Lockyer, who "smelt |a
mice," thought that he would have a chance
to perform, the marriage ceremony, receive
a good fee and kiss the bride. But he was
doomed to disappointment.
Tne party who had hired the tug stayed
in the tug-boat office until 1:30 o'clock with .
evident Impatience, when a tall elderly man
with an iron-gray, mustache, and wearing
a long chinchilla coat and a soft slouch hat,
arrived on the dock: He joined the party,
which at once embar_ed on the tug and
steamed out to sea. -Captain Eockyer was •
informed that tlie young couple mentioned
were about to be married, and as soon as
the tug was outside the whistling buoy, the
three-mile limit, Lockyer slowed down and
tho couple was united in marriage by the .
"old gent in the chinchilla coat."
The tug returned to her berth at .5 o'clock
and was met by a reporter. The first per
son to come ashore was the man who per
formed the marriage ceremony. He re
fused to give his name; said he did not know
the names of the people whom lie . married,
and then hurried uptown. The next per
son to land was the old gentleman with the
plug hat iiud. white beard. Ho told the re
porter that he, too, did not know the names
of the contracting parties. He said lie was
a resident of this city, but refused to give
his name, and went rapidly along East
street to Market.- • The -reporter next ap
proached the bride aud bridegroom. They
were- evidently Italians. The bride could
not speak .Eugiish and the bridegroom re
fused to give names- or impart any informa
tion whatever. - -*
it was afterward learned that the rela
tionship of the people who were married
was uncle and niece, and it was stated by
those on the tug that the man who per
formed the marriage ceremony represented
himself to be the pastor of the Presbyterian
Church at the corner of Geary and Powell.
'Phis he certainly is not, as the Key. T.
Chalmers Easton is pastor there and he is
known to all reporters. It is- not improb
able that the man; whoever he is, masquer
aded as a parson to earn a fat fee.

ABATTOIRS AT BADEN.
A Big Scheme to Furnish Fresh
Meat to the City.
Eastern Capital la in the Combination— lhe
Capacity of the Works— A Hew .
Town Promised.
Nearly three years ago a number of the
largest dealers in particularly in
pork— in this city conceived tho idea of
. erecting an immense slaughter-house and
meat-packing establishment in Oakland,
and for months the public was entertained
with accounts of the progress of tho work.
Finally tho echoes of this pacT-ing-house
grew small by degrees and beautifully less,
until at last they ceased to. bo heard and
another enterprise was relegated to the
tomb of departed schemes. Recently, how
ever, a whisper was heard, which has grown
loudmouthed.
It is that a company of Eastern capital
ists had formed a combination with busi
ness men of large means on this Coast for
the purpose of organizing and carrying on
a joint stock enterprise to purchase, slaugh
ter, pack and distribute -meats from a home
market.
Distinctly defined, tlio combination con
sists of a Stock-yard Land Company, with
a capital of $2,000,000; an abattoir com
pany, with all appliances for slaughtering,
chilling and canning, with a' capital of
53-0,0.6; a stock-yard banking institution,
w ith a capital of §250,000, and a stock-yard
company with a capital of 51.0U0.000.
___-H>"**_n_l, OP THE COMPANY..
■ The main personnel of the company con
sists of the following-named gentlemen and
firms: In tile Kast, Nelson Morris, George
F. Swift and Phil 1), Armour, whose head
quarters are in Chicago and New York;
George XV. Simpson, President of the
George H. Hammond Packing Company of
Chicago; — Cudahy, Phil D. Armour's
Chicago partner; S. W. Allerton & Co., and
Herman Kountz, of Kountz Bros., bankers ;
oi New York, Omaha and Denver.
All of these gentlemen are, to a greater or
less extent, engaged in tbe meat business ln
Omaha and Kansas City, in addition to the
places already named. John A. Creighton,
stock-dealer in South Omaha, aud N. Mer
riman, proprietor of a grain elevatoT in Ne
braska, are also Interested. Tbo stock
holders here are Miller & Lux, J. G. James.

here by Peter J. Her, who is also credited
with having projected the enterprise, and
who has his office at 1-1 Market street His
family occupy Mrs. Miller's cottage at
Baden Station, near which tho new stock
yards will be located, Baden Station being
a small place on the Southern Pacific Bail
road, twelve miles from the city, in San
Mateo County. 3S£SSnSS *.
WHAT CAPTAIN MEERY SATS..:.
. Speaking With reference to the proposed
enterprise, Captain William L. Merry said
to a Call representative last night: The
company has purchased IW-O acres of laud
in San Mateo County, just south of the San
Francisco County line, extending three
fourths of the .way across the peninsula
from the bay to Laden Station, paying for
the same the sum of S"60,000.
This property is immediately in front of
the growth and advance of ban Francisco to
the south ; and inasmuch as the city cannot
grow materially to the north or east, and
not very far tothe west, as it increases in
population it must .encroach on growth to
the south,: which fact, on its own merit,
makes the land a valuable purchase, and
secures its enhancement in value. ;
In respect to- the facilities for carrying on
the wholesale fresh, meat business, San
Francisco is far behind the age, and the
present location of Butchertown has be
come extremely objectionable and very
often is protested against by both the
Board of Health and the Board of Super
visors. • The construction of modern abat
toirs, stock-yards with all modern appli
....' -, public scales and fertilizer factories
for using up the refuse: will place the busi
ness on a more profitable basis, obliterate
its objectionable features,. and must result
in the removal of the so-called Butcher
town.
A STEAMER TO BE EMPLOYED.
An extensive refrigerator plant will also
be made available for tho preservation of
fresh meats until demanded, after the style
of the Eastern refrigerating houses. With
regard- to accessibility, there can bo no
better place in the vicinity of ' San Fran
cisco, while the climate is the very best pos
sible for the purpose. At Sierra Point,
where the company's land abuts, iv the bay,
wharves will be constructed and a special
steamer employed for the transportation of
delivery wagons from the abattoir to the
city front.
. These deliveries can he made with con
venience to all parts of the city, effecting a
great saving over the present hard teaming
on the Butctiertown road, which has been
almost, impassable winter after winter.
Purchasers desiring to visit the works can
do so. more leadily by steamer and return
more promptly than by horse-curs or buggy,
as at present.
' CAPACITY OF THE WOHKS. ff'-'f-
The works will be constructed with a ca
pacity nearly double the present demands
of the city, which can meanwhile be availed
of for the packing of fresh meats, obtain
able at prices which permit competition in
the East. How much packing cau be done
will depend upon the price of the fresh
meat which can be purchased at a figure
permitting competition with Missouri ami
other Eastern packing points.
The probabilities are that beef can re-
quently be handled to advantage in compe
tition with Eastern points, but the produc
tion of swine in California is so limited that
at present, and unless producers devote
attention to this branch of stock-raising, it*
is not likely that there can be successful
competition with the great corn-growing'
sections of the middle West.'where nothing
can be grown to advantage except corn and
pumpkins, and where laud is cheaper than
in the valleys of the Pacific Coast.
A NEW TOWN WILL GO UP,
The project promises to be one of ma
terial benefit to the city of Sau Francisco,
and will soon build up a town on the lands
of the company contiguous thereto. The
capital stock of the joint investments is
$3,500,000, which includes the value of the
.laud.
As to the depreciation' of the value of
property in Buchertown, resulting from the
proposed change of location, il is not
thought probable that any depreciation
will occur, for the reason that the tract will
be crossed by the Southern Pacific Railroad .
when it makes its Santa Barbara connec
tion.
Its nearness to the city will make it valu
able property after it is filled up, the
nuisance abated and a railroad is running
through it. Any decreased valuation at
first occurring will soon be compensated by
the subsequent development and improve
ment that will follow.

Agent and a company of troops. : Miss
Drexel's sympathies were aroused and she
paid the Government $12,000 for the land in
dispute, with the. intention of- giving the In
dians unmolested possession. Last year she
had a three-story brick building erected, at
at a cost of $20,000, to be used for a Govern

EASY ON IMPORTERS.
The Construction of the Customs
Administrative Act..
The Customs Department at this port, as
well as the merchants who import goods,
have been in considerable of a stew for. the
past few days over many questions which
have come up under the provisions of the
Customs Administrative Act which will go
into effect on August Ist.
A number of merchants who have goods
on the way here wanted to enter them at
once, so as to avoid paying the extra' fees
Hud expenses of the new system, but in re
ply ; to a telegram of Collector Phelps, Sec
letary of the'- Treasury Windom said that
such a course is unnecessary, as all goods
in transit prior to August Ist could be en
tered as of July _lst. -:- c -
Then another question came up in regard
to the goods now in the bonded' warehouse,
and, acting under the advice of attorneys;
there was a big rush of importers to have
their goods out of the bonded warehouse
before the end of July. Section 9 of the
circular issued a short time ago by the
Treasury Department in explanation of the
new act reads as follows: :,
It Is the opinion of the department that Sec
tion 20 of Ihe new law permits- the retention of
merchandise lo bonded warehouse lor more thau
one year, and not more than ihree years, from,
date of importation, without llie Imposition of
■ the -diJilion.il duty ol 10 per centum provided
by Section 2970, llcvised Statutes, upou lis with
drawal lor consumption.
In order to understand this construction,
Collector Phelps telegraphed:- "Suppose
the year expired before the Ist of August,
but tho merchandise still remained in the
warehouse,, would the additional duty of
10 per ceut provided by Section 2970 ac
crue '<■" To which Secretary- Windom tele
graphed back, "Xo." '
Said a prominent Custom-house official
yesterday: 'This construction. of the de
partment is most liberal to merchants.
Under it goods, which are really liable to
this duty of 10- per cent extra will- be freed
from it, and that too after all the merchants
fully expected to pay it. The department
at Washington is evidently bent on con
struing the customs laws in the light most
favorable to the importer."
AGAIN KULED OUT.
I'.odrliiiK mid Cowles* limit for the Own-.
ers of the Hope Ranch. .- .'-.'.:
Again, and for the third time. Judge
tint has ruled out the complaint of the
vexed suit of Joseph Redding and Nor
thrope Cowles against the members of the
firm of Tallant & Co., involving the well
known and extensive Hope Ranch in Santa
Barbara County. _fr__\
Bedding and Cowles purchased it of John
T. Hope in July, 1887, for $26,000, and. exe
cuted a mortgage to Hope as security for
payment. In December following they paid
for one-fourth of the ranch;, .and then Tal
lautdied. In closing the affairs of Tallaut
& Co. it was never legally settled who
owned that ranch, and ever since Bedding
and Cowles have been receiving notices
from the several members of the couipany
that they claimed the ranch, either entirely
or in part, and demanped individual settle
ment with them accordingly.'
First Marguerite and John Hope sent
such a notice, claiming the whole ranch;
then a similar claim came from the Tal
lants; then one from Bose and- George
Higby, with A: E. llerlick claiming' only a
certain interest. Now Bedding and Cowles
are anxious to pay the remaining $19,000 on
the ranch and lift the mortgage, but from
among so many claimants they cannot tell
whom to pay.
They therefore brought this suit to have
the courts. decide who the owners are, but
the court persists in. holding that such is
not the proper course. They 'must figure
as interpleaders in a suit between the sev
eral claimants. Their first complaint, like
wise first and second amended complaints,
were ruled out on demurrers, as not stating
a cause of action.
FIVE UNFORTUNATES.
They Were Commuter! to the A_uews
Asylum for tho Ins-mo.
. The Commissioners of Insanity yesterday
examined five persons, and upon the testi
mony offered they were .committed to the
Agnews Asylum. The hallucinations' of
the unfortunates were various. Following
is the list of those who were committed: .
John S. Johnson, a native of Norway, 58 years
of age, Imagines that Starr Kluit Is coining from
the jri aye to.help him out of some difhcuiiy.-
Mary Welsh, a native of Ireland. 70 years of
ace, informed the Commissioners that she owned
St.' Mary's Hospital. . ■ . -
Frank McNeil, a morphine fiend', declared lilt
Intention to commit suicide, and It was thought
advisable to save his life.
JosenU lllscher, a German, would not deign to
converse with any person, lie considers every,
body beneath htm. . .
Charles Warner also wanted to end his life.
GOOD ' .NEWS INDEED.
The Lone: -reelected .Postoffice Will at
Last Receive Attention.
The following telegram, which explains'
itself, .was yesterday received by Post
master Backus: j&UB|
Washington (li. C), July 20, 1890.
General S. ll'. Backus, ' Postmaster, San Fran
cisco: Have had long confcience with First
Assistant Postmaster General Clarkson, who has
arrived. . Appropriation will be secured forim
proveun ut of pieneui postoflice. Three or four
uew siatious will be established and twenty-five
additional carriers. New- postofllce site will be
soou determined. William W. Mokkow.
The- Lin-ir if Are Divorced.
Judge . Hearten has. finally granted the
Linaris a divorce— Mary Irom Paul— on.-the
grounds of cruelty, and ordered the father
to pay SIM a month toward the support of
the child. 'Mrs. Linari declared that her
husband had only bought her' one dress in
all their. seven years of married life.'but he
insisted that she — "pblenty, pbreuty,"
he declared. When squeezed down to the
facts, however, Mrs. Lilian's statement
was found to ne pretty near correct. •
1. Itiancho Is Satisfied.
J. J. l'aner has been appointed receiver
by Judge Lawlcr of La Blanche & Holmes,
saloon-keepers. The creditors of the firm
were displeased with Holmes' management
and tried to secure an order from the court
compelling him to surrender to them his
personal jewelry. La Blanche says he is
satisfied with Holmes' management, al
though it has cost him pretty nearly $4000.
Judge Lawler refused to grant tlio credit
