The True Story- of an Oft-Alleged
Countess.
'
____________
It Begins With a Baby and Wine's Up at
tbe Court of St. Petcrsbuig-A Eo
m&nce of Beal Life.
"The child will be called Grace Green
wood till further orders."
It i*. a small matter in itself, but in the
near future it may mean something consid
erable.
San Francisco has furnished two heir
esses already, Florence Blythe and Ida
Green, otherwise the Baroness yon Bama
ko w. H?H
Yesterday a CAIX reporter encountered a
man who was evidently greatly exercised in
his mind. The man was Peter John Buloh
vosbaski, who claims to be the father of
"Grace Greenwood," and also claims that
she is a countess of Holy Russia, by proxy
of course. Meanwhile Grace Greenwood is
an inmate of the Infants' Shelter at 512
Minna street, wherein she has been a boarder
since September .4, about whicli date she
was transferred from* the City Prison Hos
pitalV^Mf
On September 4 Bulohvosbaski appeared
In person at the hospital and delivered to
Prison Matron Giimore, with many tears, a
girl baby, claiming that the latter bad been
deserted by her mother and that he was no
longer able to take care of her. The child
was promptly transferred to the Infants'
Shelter on Minna street, where she has since
remained. The matron dees not hesitate to
fay that she is "a refined baby," and, though
the little one has but recently and imper
fectly recovered from an attack of whooping
cough, she i as already childless lady friends
who are willing to adopt her.
THE CHILD.
lUilohvosbaski says that the child is bis,
and that he put in the claim against Secre
tary Holbrook of the Society for the Pre
vention of Cruelty to Children, because of
all-powerful paternal impulses. In support
of this Kulohvosbaski urges tint he is the
victim < i ciicumstances, and that no one
knows bow dear one Jenny Liud was to him
and how false one Sarah Clarke has been to
tim.
\ In this connection there appear sundry
court records which throw a lurid light on
the case.
It is admitted that Bulohvosbaski ap
peared on September 4 at the City Prison
Hospital and declared to the matron that
the girl child left in her charge would be a
countess some day, though be was then un
able to care for her.
It is also of record that Rulohvosba**kl
turned up in Los Angeles in connection
With the suit against Lawyer Bunsbacker
of that city. Among the charges was that
Bunsbacker had drawn $2500 from cer
tain bank to establish a saloon on Spring
street. Bos Angeles, which was being run
In a benevolent connection with a Mrs.
Clarke.
Bulohvosbaski dees not exactly know
whether Mrs. Clarke is bis wife or not. He
says that she is now living at 26 Hunt street
and in partnership in a restaurant business
on Third street. He admits that he lived
with her at 700 California street as bis
wife," but says she is not the mother of his
child. The real mother, he says, is Jenny
Lind. in no way related to the sweet singer
of that ill:. His Jenny Lind died at Para.
Brazil, in the early part of test year.
'1 hi- Jennie Lind business has gotten
Bulohvosbaski into considerable trouble in
diiectly, because it is claimed by the Clarke
contingent that he was married to her. The
Russian says he Is not a bigamist; that
though he was actually married to Mrs.
Ctarke he was never married to Jennie
Lind. though they lived together for a great
number of years.
l'.ii.vi!Vi.-r,.u:];i's RELATIONS.
The court records before referred to show
that Mrs. Santa J. Clarke was formerly the
wife of Charles Clarke of this city and was
married to him iv Manchester, England.
On Jane 4, I*B9l, she instituted a divorce
suit against Clarke, which terminated in
her favor in July. By the terms of the
decision she received £10,000 and attorney's
fees.
Shortly after the divorce proceedings
Balehyosbaaki was arrested for trying to
sboot the womau on the street. lie was
held to answer on a charge of assault with
a deadly weapon, with bail set at $1000, It
was alleged, among other things, that lie
was trying tc get some of the woman's
money. lie was beld|until August 13, when
a jury in Judge bard's court returned
a verdict of not guilty in the absence of the
prosecuting, witness. HE9H
It is also unofficially on record that
Kulohvosbaskl attempted to commit suicide
on the Oakland ferry-boat in August of last
year.
As to the statement tbat "the Count" is
not known to be on the roll of the Russian
nobility, ho himself claims that this is be
cause Ms nobility comes from the mother's
side, and the lias been absent from Russia
for a number of years. He exhibited a let
ter to a Call repot ter, dated Hanover,
Germany, from his mother, Paulina Botus,
as follows **Conc«rniug your name. Count
Peter John Rulobvaibaski, we will gladly
state herewith • that your uncle on the
mother's side has adopted you as bis son,
and left you in his testament 40,000 marks
($10,000) because he Is childless and he dies
not wish that his name shall die out. '1 he
only consideration is that you will take up
his name. At the same time the parents and
uncles have been very dissatisfied that you
have gone to America, and will furnish you
no assistance as long as you stay there."
RnlohTosbaski conducts a small watch
repairing business on the corner of Wash
ington and Montgomery streets.
The child is a delicate-looking litlle thing,
but the matron at the Infant--.' Shelter
claims that it will thrive and startle the
world some day. Rulohvasbaski says bis
mother is. a cons of one of the Dolgoroukis,
a noble Russian family, close to royalty.
CASANOVA'S ESTATE.
Judicial Determination of the -.egal
Heirs.
The matter of the estate of lienry Casa
nova, who will be remembered as a boa
vivant, a clubman, and at the time of his
death as Chairman of the Italian Chamber
of Commerce in this city, advanced one step
nearer distribution yesterday, Judge Coffey
having' legally determined who are the
legal heirs. .
The settlement of this estate has been re
tarded by the absence of one of the princi
pal legatees, a brother of the testator named
Alfred. No trace has been bad of him since
eighteen years ago, when he went to Monte
video, the capital of the republic of Uru
guay. A special commission was appointed
to obtain proofs of him living or dead, ami
having reported that no trace can be found
of him Judee Coffey has pronounced him
civilly dead, and has determined who shall
fall heir to the estate.
These heirs are: Henry, a nephew, and
Eugenia Carnaslia, a niece, who will fall
, heir each to $10,000; Louis Tisconirna, a
cousin, 815,000;. Alexander Vensano, the
executor, $5000 for himself and 810,000 more
in trust, one-half of the latter sum for his
children* and the other tor a Mis'" Nellie
Fuller; H. 11. Veuve 82500, and the jewelry
and paintings of the testator; and to Ven
sano the 0,000 Insurance in trust for pur
poses outlined in the will.
This insurance, however. is an asset of
doubtful value, and was yesterday the sub
ject of litigation on behalf of the estate be
fore Judge Finn between the executor and
the bankers' and Merchants' Mutual Life
Association. The concern is in the hands
of a receiver, and the claim is defended on
the ground that at the time ot Casanova's
death on January 11, 1889, and also before
and after, Its mortuary fund was depleted,
and to pay claims its reserve capital had to
be drawn upon.
STUCK IN THE MUD.
Three .Thieves Captured With a Wagon-
Load of Junk.
Three thieves and a wagon-load of swag

. More trouble of the same kind is coining
Lome to George H.- Bartlett, proprietor of a
weeKly illustrated paper. A warrant sworn'
out by Ernest Regensberger charging crim
inal libel was served on Bartlett yesterday
afternoon, but he was Immediately released
on $500 bail. The statement to which the
complaint took exceptions is that Regens
bcrcer was in the habit of staring I 'dies in
the face in an impudent manner. Bartlett
is under bonds on another libel suit involv
ing the Iloideus, who were witnesses iv the
Curtis case.
BABILLAS A-ND BARRIOS.
It Is Not Believed Here That They Are
Enemies.
The news that BienGcsta has been elected
President of the Republic of Guatemala, to
succeed Barillas, and that the younger
Barrios is in a San Salvadorian jail, is not
generally believed in this city, notwithstand
ing the advices which reached here Tues
day by the steamer City of Panama.
As the story goes Barillas, who during
his term of office amassed an enormous
fortune iv land and money, is making
strenuous efforts to fly the country and is
in mortal fear of youug Barrios.
John Craij, Assistant Secretary of the
California World's Fair Commission, who
spent a long time in Guatemala . and is
largely familiar with affairs in that « ountry,
is inclined to make light of the news.
"So far as 1 have any chance to know,"
said Mr. Craig. "Barillas and Barrios have
always been the best of friends. The young
man is, you know, nephew of the elder
Barrios, who was assassinated in IKS.,
while serving as President of Guatemala.
Barillas was then Second Vice-President,
and Barrtindia, afterward killed aboard the
Ac tpnlcn, was Minister of War. The First
Vice-President fled the country. Bin rundi.t
at once, through his supposed popularity
with the army, sought to seize the reins of
government, but was defeated by Barillas.
The latter, who at the time of the assassin
ation of President Barrios was on one of
his plantations, was sent for by Mine.
Barrios, and gathering together 500 men,
whom lie armed as best he could, he marched
at once to the city of Guatemala. The army
went over t.i him in a boly, ami Barrundia
managed to escape to Mexico, where he en
deavored to create a revolution in his native
country. Ills subsequent killing, and the
recall of Minister Mizner in consequence, is
still fresh in the minds of the public.
"Now* my reason for not believing the
story referred to is that the younger Barrios
and Barillas have always been friends and
when the latter left here some time ago he
expressed the most kindly feelings toward
Barillas.
"S i far as Barillas is concerned it is safe
to assume that if he is seeking to escape
it is to avoid punishment for his acts while
in office. He has in the short time lie has
been President accumulated a fortune
valued at about $16,000,000, and most of it
has been violently wrested from the people.
An unfriendly successor, of course, would
at once pounce down upon him, and that is
probably his real reasou for attempting to
leave."
FORTY - NINTH ANNUAL 'REPORT
Of the .Mutual Life 1 urn nee Company
of Xcw York.
THE MUTT* AI. LIFE'S REPORT FOR 1891.
The forty-ninth annual report of the
Mutual Life Insurance Company shows the
extent of its operations dining tie past
year, and its financial condition on Decem
ber 31, 1891. Bach successive report has
usually been declared to be "the best in
the history of the company." The report
for 1881 is no exception, demonstrating as
it does the increpsing popularity of the
Mutual Life and the extension of the benefit
conferred upon those fortunate enough to
hold its policies. The a?**-, now amount
in the segregate to $159,507,135 OS, and the
liabilities to $147,476,17152. Tha surplus
fund forthe payment of dividends anil to
insure the policy-holder against every
emergency amounts to $12,030,967 10. But
for tie former system of the Mutual, which
allowed its policy-holders to reap im
mediately the benefit of the profits accrued
in the lorn; of annual dividends the amount
credited to this account would be largely
i.i excess of the surplus of any other Com
pany.
During the twelve months the policy
holders of this company received (1*8,755.
--71! 66, against $16.97.-5,200 C sln 1390, an in
crease of payments for the year of
$1,782,511 81. This was not due to any
marked incro.*se in the mortality rate, hot
to the enormous growth of the company's
business and the wider extent of its opera
tions. The Mutual Life has now 225,507
policies in force, insuring $095,753,461 03.
The company in this report has, as far as
possible, eliminated all policies issued and
"not taken." H_S9-fIB>BI
Attention is directed to the report of the
Examining Committee of Trustee.*, which ius
carefully examined every item of this report
and every investment of tbo company and
declares:
"In making this certificate, the committee
bear testimony to the high character of the
investments of the company, and express
their approbation of the system, order and
accuracy with which the accounts and
vouchers have been kept and the business
in general is transacted."

As previously stated, the report shows
greater results achieved by the Mutual in
1891 than in any previous year of its his
tory, aod maintains the proud portion
which this company baa attained in the
minds of the discriminating public as "the
greatest of all the companies."
NO GOODS TO BARTER.
A Profitless Trade llelxtion Willi Caro-
line I*l indent.
On September 27, 18891, R. W. Gifford, E.
P. Turner and , the Pacific and Oceanic
Trading Company entered into an agree
ment ia this city to send a schooner and a
bark to the Caroline Islands to trade with
the natives and open up a commerce with
this city. Gilford was tf devote all his time
to the service of the corporation and bo the
general superintendent at the islands. His
family was to join him there. His monthly
salary was to be 8100, and on the IStb of
December, 1890, 15 per cent of the net
profits earned up to that date, and there
after 8150 per month in addition to the per
centage, if he were iv service. Turner also
agreed to devote his time and attention to
the enterprise as assistant manager, his
compensation to be fined after October, 1860.
Gilford, it appears, went to the islands on
October 17, 1880, and until August 11, 1801,
claims to have earnestly performed all the
duties required of him, so that from and
after January, 1801, he had become entitled
to 81200- fir salary, but has repeatedly
asked for a settlement without avail. The
company, he now charges in a complaint
filed yesterday, not only failed to supply
him with goods for barter, but did not fur
nish him even with the ordinary necessaries
of life for daily sustenance, wherefore men
tal anguish and pecuniary loss were caused
him.
Dy reason of said abandonment he claims
to have been prevented from making the
percentage agreed, upon. Because of the
company's neglect to send his family down
it was left here without money or means of
support, and therefore lie asks for judg
ment "against the company for 821,200,
being damages and the unpaid salary.
A "FIXER" IN JAIL.

During the trial of Kitty Williams for
petty larceny In Judge Joaehlmsen's court
yesterday, John Lundin was fouud guilty
of contempt, as a side issue, and sentenced
to twenty-four hours in jail. The girl was
arrested for stealing a diamond scarfpin
from one Fred Hansen. While the trial was
in progress, George O'Conner, a friend of
tho girl, rose up in court and stated that he
had been approached by Lundin, who
offered to fix the case for $10." Lundin was
present, and the Jiulgc Immediately called
him to the stand. He confessed that he had
approached the girl for the purpose of fixing
ber, but did not, know that he was doing
anything wrong. lie pleaded for clemency,
but the Judge sent him to jail as a horrible
exam of fixing. The Williams woman
was convicted, and will be sentenced to-day.

PAY FOR FIREMEN.
Auditor Smiley Tells W!»y He
Refuses to Audit.
r^*Vr9^^_^9ff^tsW*r_^^K*^BKKf9/Sm^r^
If the Board of Fire Commissioners Will
B.label the Ken He Will Siga the
Warrants.
A special meeting of lbe Board of Fire
Commissioners yesterday morning resulted
in some sprightly repartee between Auditor
Smiley and Chief Scannell and the discus
sion of some fine points of law. The prob
lem to be solved by the board found no
-solution at the meeting, and the whole
matter went over for further discussion
next Saturday.
What tho board wanted to. find out was
why Auditor Smiley refused to audit the
warrants of the captain of the water tower,
which has gone out of commission in order
to enable the captain to earn a living else
where, and the firemen of the chemical
engines. The '.water-tower man had Jno pay
for eight months, and the warrants of the
chemical attaches for February have not
yet been signed by the Auditor. As a pre
liminary to the meeting and the purpose for
which it was called. Chairman Schmitt sub
mitted the following statement: .
On or about the l**f of June, 18&0, the Hoard
of Supervisors authoi Izcd the organization of
Chemical Easts* Company No. 1, with a foie
man at $126 a month, a driver at $90, a stoker
at 890 and a steward at $80. In June, 1891,
Hi" board authorized the formation of two more
chemical engine companies. Their salaries were
pats until tin** month, when Auditor Smiley re
fused to slcn their warrants lor February. Tiie
men will, not work aoy longer, aud the engines
might as well oe housed.
MR. SMILEY TALKS.
When asked by Chairman Schmitt to de
fine his position iv the matter. Smiley said
that ho did not propose to violate the law* for
the sake of public policy, It was dmbtless
a matter of public policy to maintain the
v .'-mentioned apparatus but there was
no law providing for the payment of the
men employed thereon. If Schmitt or any
one else could shew htm such a law he would
cheerfully audit the warrants. In signing
the warrants of the chemical men for the
mouths previous to February he thought he
was acting legally, but when he found that
the proceeding was contrary to law he re
fused to do any more violence to that law.
He also feels that he is responsible on his
bond for the salaries already allowed.
The Auditor takes the ground that tho
law does not provide for water-tower or
chemical men, and if the board would label
the gentlemen differently he would allow
them to draw pay for working for tho city.
In the defense of the controverted sys
tem, Chief Scannell said that the water
towers were ladispensiblo at large fires
where hose could not be carried up to the
windows. All largi» cities supported water
tower-, winch is evidence of their value in
subduing flames. As for
THE -vi- mii nam
They could be put in action with greater
ia; ilty than the steam engines. The
chemicals extinguished at least 50 per cent
cf the fires without flooding buildings and
damaging goods with water. The cost of
•'barging an engine with chemicals is about
$2 50.
Mr. Smiley stated in reply to a question
from Commissioner Martiu that his signa
ture had been forged to one warrant
amounting to Sl4>. This was the salary of
one of the engineers.
the question of "Brick" "Butler's happy
faculty for looting burning buildings while
acting in tbe capacity of fireman was then
brought up. Mr. Ames asked tor the par
ticulars .1 "Brick's" operations at the
Grand Hotel fire. lie hai never heard of
them, he said.
QSmiley said that "Brick" did loot. He
looted a friend of his. This statement was
denied in toto by Chief Scannell, who said
that Butler was not a member of the de
partment when that fire occurred. Officers
of the department present also claimed that
they had never heard of any looting. The
Chief further expressed himself of the spin
ion that Mr. Smiley had simply joined the
Volunteer Fire Department to avoid jury
duty. Tilts made Mr. Smiley mad, and he
immediately left the meeting without fur
ther controversy.
At the request of Supervisors Coffee and
Burling it was ngrced to draw up an or
-nance to conform to the Auditor's views
on the water-tower and chemical-engine
problems, which will be presented at the
meeting of the Board of Supervisors next
Saturday.
TRIED AS A CRIME.
Prosecution or Dre All Tom for .Msnn-
fact tirlni; Opium,
To-day the first case of criminal prosecu
tion In the United States against a Chinese
for the illicit manufacture of opium will be
heard in the United States District Court
before a jury. Considerable importance is
attached to the hearing by the Government;
as upon its success depends largely its en
forcement of the laws governing the do
mestic manufacture of the drug.
The internal revenue laws provide that
no person not a citizen of the United Status
may manufacture opium within the limits
of this country and Alaska, and ns Chinese
are very seldom citizens, they aro as a class
excluded from such privileges. So. when
ever a Chinese person is found manufactur
ing opium he and his paraphernalia and
stock on hand are taken into custody. In
the past the Government has not resorted to
the prosecution ot the manufacturer, but
has been satisfied with the confiscation of
the property. To put a further check en the
illicit manufacture among Chinese of the,
drug the Government decided to prosecute
criminally -the next Chinese who might
happen to cook at an hour so unseasonable
and unlucky that lie be caught. This un
lucky Chinaman Is Dee Ah Tom.
Dee Ah Tom was nrrested over a year
ago liv Special Agent Eldridge and Inspec
tor Thomas at 17 Washington alley, while
he was engaged in reducing "yen shee" to
smoking opium. "Yen shee" Is t.'ie scrap
ings of pipes after being smoKed. and the
duet in npinrn is of a poor sort, called
"seconds." Thoy were boiling it at the time
of the vi-it, and said they had made about
150 pounds the month previous. Tins they
had sold at 83 50 a pound after being boiled.
The manufacture was carried on under the
name of bui Fat, and as Dee Ah Tom was
the only one who persisted in saying he was
part of the firm he was arrested.
The seizure amounted In IGG five-t.it 1
boxes of Imported opium, 96 boxes of do
mestic drug, 160 pounds of domestic smok
ing opium in io j.trs, 17". pound*- of opium-pipe
scrapings contained in 18 oil cans, 2 brass
kettles and one ladle. The value of the
whole was placed at 82500 by Special Agent
Eldridge.
THE SALTON SEA.
Recent Reports Show That the Deaert
Lake la Not 1* lsi dr.
Reports received yesterday at Southern
Pacific headquarters from Manager Durdrow
of the salt works atSalton show that there
ie no water coming Into the desert lake
from the Colorado Klver, or from any other
source.
Assistant Oeneral Manager Curtis of the
Southern Pacific Come-any in speaking of
the matter yesterday said : "There is not
the least danger of a repitition of last
winter's trouble at Saltan. At Yuma the
water is now 14 feet 9 inches lower than
last year at this time, and there is not even
a remote possibility of a disasterous over
flow this season. There is always a little
water in this depression during the winter
months and last year the heavy storms in
Eastern Arizona caused an unusual amount
to gather. But even iv the event of an
overflow there would be no suspension of
traffic. It would be a very easy construc
tion Droblem to get around the flooded
district. We have no fear, however, of
having to do any building on account of an
overflow. There is at present about four
or five Inches of water in the depression."

There is a slight change iv the condition
of James 11. Fiynu,' the young man who
was stabbed in the breast Monday morning
by Thomas 11. Douglass. He was resting
quietly yesterday, but is still too weak to
admit of a complete examination of the
wound. His assailant is nicely quartered in
the. Prison Hospital, where many of the

ANOTHER DEPUTY-
Crtmmlus Installs £. J. Mills In the
County Clerk* Offlce.
There was a rather peculiar evolution in
the political arena yesterday that may have
some significance as Indicating which way
the wind is blowing. E. J. Mills was ap
pointed a deputy in the County Clerk's
oflice, a fact hardly noteworthy but for the
circumstances connected with it.
Mr. Mills represented the Forty-seventh
Assembly District in the late meeting of
the Republican County Committee, and dis
tingnlshed himself by affiliating with the
Burns-Wilson faction on every Issue. In
consideration of his services his principals
guaranteed him a "fat sit" in the Street De
partment, which, it is said, has a divided
political complexion, half and half for each
faction.'
When. Mr. Mills stepped forward to be
clothed with his new mantle, it is said he
was not at ail pleased with it; lie thought it
would be of much liner texture and higher
priced. To use the committee vernacular,
he "beefed" like a thoroughbred, and de
manded a better layout.
Messrs. Crimmins and Kelly, proprietors
of the other and commonly reputed lesser
faction, have been watching wit i vigilant
eye every chance to regain their lost pres
tige in tiie committee. Noting Mills' disaf
fection they pounced on him like a pair of
buzzards and took him bodily into the oppo
sition camp, In less than en hour a com
pact was sealed, and Mr. Mills emerged
from the political baptism with a new heart
and a new faith— born again, as it were.
A part of the bargain for the purchase of
Mr. Mills' affiliation, so one enthusiastic
Crimmins champion declared last evening,
was a deputy.ship in the County .Clerk's
office, aud the goods were delivered yester
day.
. FEBRUARY WEATHER.
A Deficiency in the .Season**-! K-* Infill for
the City.
According to the review of the Weather
Bureau five storms during the month of
February affected Washington weather, four

Southern California and Nevada and two
Utah and Arizona. ,-
There were twelve days on which ap
preciable precipitation fell in Northern Cali
fornia and ten in Southern California, net
ting for this city 2.9 inches of rain, but
showing still a deficiency of 5.3 in the sea
sonal precipitation compared to the normals.
The warmest days were generally the llth

districts except along the California coast
and at Yuma, Ariz., In which section the

AN INDIGNANT CYCLIST.
Mot-can S-iy-j Tlmt All Hip AVheeltneu
Went Kast L««1 Monday.
There is no truth in th** published state
ment that Messrs. Eek and Morgan, the
managers of tiie recent bicycle tournament
at the Pavilion, liave gone East leaving the
bicycle-iiders stranded in this city, in debt
and without money. On the contrary, every
one of tin: cyclists left for the East last II a
day, their hotel bills were all paid and they
departed with a clean bill of health.
When Eek left the city suddenly last week
ho owed the Rata House c.,.*^ and what
was Morgan's surprise when he wanted
to leturn to home with the cyclist* to find
the hotel people declined to let bim take
away hit baggage until he had paid Eck's
liabilities. Morgan having paid his own bill
ami obtained a receipt in full, naturally de
clined to discharge hi* partner's personal
obligations. Attorney Rothschild h*»s there
fore brought suit against .*-*. EL Seymour,
the owner, of the hotel, for a replevin of
Morgan's goods and damages for detention.
CHEW SIN JAN.
The Slayer of Special <;illln on Trial for
Ills Life.
Chew Sin Jan. the Chinaman who shot
and killed Special Policeman J. 11. Gillin
on November 7 last, was placed on trial in
Judge Murphy's court yesterday. His de
fense will be self-defense. His attorney is
exercising all the caution that the law will
admit of in the selection of a jury. The
entire day was consumed examining juror*,
but the panel was not near completed. It
may take all of to-day yet.
Chew wa» assaulted by some boys while
I assing along the street, minding his own
business. As he turned to chastise them
for annoying him, the unfortunate special
officer Interfered, aid Chew, believing the
odd-, entirely against him, drew hi- gun and
fired in all directions to kill. GlUaa fell
fatally wounded, and a milkman also got a
shot, but it was not fat sil.
Thn Sentence "-lust* Stand.
Judgment of conviction of an assault
with intent to commit murder was affirmed
yesterday by the Supreme Court in the case
of J. W. Scott. The ruling in the case was
that "there would have been no error in re
fusing to allow the defendant to lay a foun
dation for Impeachment when the court
subsequently admitted the impeaching tes
timony without a foundation. The desired
statements were admitted in evidence before
the jury, and that was all the defendant
could ask." Scott was sentenced ta ten
years at Baa Quentin for having shot and
wounded John Vaughn on January 21, 1891,
at Napa City.

A Great Red action in Uie Valua
tion of tbe Site.
Special Agent Gibson Procures a Big Eatch
of Affidavits and Collects a Mass of
Expert Testimony. .
The rooras of Special Agent Gibson were
enlivened during the whole of yesterday
rooming by the presence of Commissioner
John P. Irish, who came early and stayed
late. ;
There was a marked change in the friend
liness of his demeanor toward Mr. Gibson,
which, decidedly hostile at first, has grad
ually changed to that state of affection
which found expression in a warm invita
tion to dine,. and necessitated a; thrice-re
peated hand-shaking performance before
the colonel took his departure.
Before leaving the colonel-commissioner
filed the following statement:
I wish to say that whereas one C. L. Taylor
I.as filed two supplementary statements In wliicU
lie still Insists that as a matter of parliamentary,
practice a motion to indetmiteiy postpone is not
-debatable; and this he swears to. in Plutarch's
" Life of Philip of iMacedon," ii is said tiiat upou
lhe recommendation of Autipater, Philip ap
pointed one to be a Judge; afterward upon meet
ing the man, Philip observed that be painted his
beard, whereupon be turned hlni out of bis office
of Judge, saying: " I cannot believe that a man"
who is false in tbe color of bis beard can be true
In bis action." I commend this wise saw to
public attention in the light of the modern in
stance furni.htd by Colonel Taylor.
John P. Irish.
VALUE OF O'CONNOlt's AFFIDAVIT.
A young man named T. J. O'Connor called
to testify regarding the situ and stated that
be is 27 years of age and has resided in Sin
Iraucisco since the first year of his life.
Mr. Ciibson's investigation developed the
fact that the witness knew absolutely noth
ing regarding the solidity of the site, its
availability for a postoffice building, or the
valuation of the property, so his affidavit
was valued accordingly.
A. B. Deming, the citizen who filed the
first affidavit concerning the site, when the
public Investigation was commenced, filed a
statement yesterday in which be propounded
the following question:
In view of ihe gieat cost and sacrifice of
bealth. blood, life and tieasure to establish and
preserve our nation, does it not become lbe duty
of eve loyal citizen to exert Himself to protect
our Government Irmu the rascals wlio are trying
to rob her of over half a million dollars on the
postoWce site scheme at Mission aud Seventh
eels?
Continuing, Mi. Deming said:
1 would sungUM that patriot philanthropists
oner chsli tewitrds for evidence of proving who
the rascals are who ate backing this gigantic
robbery. If the site is accepted ii should be
their political gtaveyard.
General G. B. Toliuan of 312 Third street
remembered very distinctly the presence of
a marsh at Seventh and Mission streets, and
'pronounced $1,040,000 an outrageous valua
tion for the corner.
WHAT J K. TRIOR SAID.
J. K. Prior, a larce proper; y-ow uer in the
city, stated that about 100 feet on the site
was in the marsh about forty-five ye ars ago.
He placed the maximum value of the prop
erty at $500,000.
A number of other citizens made perti
nent affidavits, but at their request tbey
were regarded as confidential. Thirteen
affidavits were filed yesterday, and all con
demned the site.
ln the afternoon Mr. Gibson went out into
the highways to procure expert testimony
regarding the property at Seventh and Mis
sion streets. He examined nine men, who
are, according to the ai?eut, millionaire
property-owuers of standing and reputa
tion, owning property all around the bite.
Many of these witnesses testified that a
swamp had in early days existed on the
site, or bordering the property, and the
valuations varied between §450,000 and
$550,000.
iir. Gibson stated that he had also pro
cured the opinion of an expert who is en
gaged as a land-appraiser for the banks of
California, and that this gentleman valued
Hi** proposed site at $416,250.
Somewhat late in the day the special
scent received a telegram from Washington
instructing him to procure estimates for the
cost of boring the site, to tost its solidity and
the time it would take to settle the quest]
as the character of the ground. Ho placed
himself in immediate communication with
an engineer and forwarded the tetter's esti
mates to Washington last night <
MCARAGUA CANAL.
The Mayor Appoints Tw fire Mors

again changed to Tuesday, March _.>, as
originally set, and it will take place iv tho
Chamber of Commerce.
Given thn Wrong Transfer.
The North Beach and Misslon'ltaUwny
Company has been made a defendant in the
J ustices' court at the suit of Robert Ken
nedy for the usual damages. lio was a
passenger on February 4, 1692, but was
given the wrong transfer at Ninth and
Folsom streets to the butter-street Railroad
Company, so that when asked to pay an
other fare he refused and was assaulted and
ejected. As one reminder of the affair,
pays he has been unable to use one of his
finger*.
Authorized to 9*ll.
Judge Coffey lias authorized the executors
of the estate of Jean J. S. Pinet to sell its
one-sixteenth in the Dark City of Papeete,
as perishable property. She is In need of
extensive repair*, estimated to cost 810.000,
and while the best offer received has been'
$4500, it is thought S3OOO can be realized.
