RUDOLPH SPRECKELS IS AGAIN ENJOINED The Paauhau Stock Is to Remain Tied Up. A POINT FOR PLAINTIFF. An Important Issue of Wide- spread and General Interest Involved. RIGHTS OF MARRIED WOMEN. All the Technical Objections Raised to the Original Complaint Have Been Met. Upon motion of Samuel M. Shortridge of the firm of Delmas & Shortridge, at- torneys for Claus Spreckels and his wife, Judge Slack made a special order yester- day continuing in force indefinitely the injunction issued last May restraining Rudolph Spreckels from disposing of the stock in the Paauhau Plantation Company, claimed by Mr. and Mrs. Spreckels. This was a strong point in favor of the plaintiffs in the celebrated suit, and is indirectly in the interest of every woman in California who is, or who hopes to be, married. It was claimed by Rudolph Spreckels that in 1893 Claus Spreckels, his father, made him a gift of half a million dollars' worth of stock in the Paauhau Plantation Company, despite the fact that the law tnen required that gifts of community property could be made legally only with the consent of the wife in writing. This stock, it is alleged, was then part of the community property of Claus Spreckels ana his wife, Anna C. Spreckels, and she has never given her consent in writing or in any other vray to the alleged gift. In fact, it is claimed by her attorneys that there was no gift, by reason of the law re- ferred to. Suit was therefore commenced last May in the names of Claus and Anna C. Spreckels to require Rudolph to return this stock. After considering the com- plaint Judge Slack granted an injunction restraining Rudolph from selling or dis- posing of his stock. But the defendant did not propose to return so valuable a holding without a bitter right and raised all sorts of tech- nical objections to the method of the pro- ceedings. Great interest has been exhibited in the case, not only on the part of the women of the State, bin by attorneys generally, and by all persons interested in the banking and loaning institutions of California. The questions involved are also of interest to every purchaser of real estate, and to all who have large dealings of any nature. Heretofore, the rights of married women in the community property acquired by themselves alone, or in connection •with their husbands, have been considered of so indefinite a character that even in cases where the law has expressly provided that the signature of the wife shall not be necessary, every lawyer of standing and aoility,.' every banker and cvrv careful buyer of real estate ha3 re- qui-ed the wife to sign all papers con- nected with the transfer of property. The attorneys for the plaintiffs claim that the section of the code which es- pecially provides that husbands shall not ;j;ve away the community property with- out the written consent of the wife is not only a just and -wise provision for the pro- tection of married women, but one framed and binding to establish their rights. It is this law that is being at- tacked by- Rudolph Spreckels as an uncon- stitutional and unjust law. The many technical objections raised to the first complaint in this vastly interest- ing suit seemed to be fully met in the amended complaint, which was filed yesterday. Briefly the new complaint allepes that Claus and Anna C. Spreckels were married in 1852. On July 31, 1893, they owned and, as is claimed, still own 5000 shares of stock of the Paauhau Plantation Company, a Ha- waiian corporation. Claus Spreckels ap- peared on the books as the owner of the stock. On the day named Claus Spreckels indorsed the certificates of stocks in blank and transferred them to the defendant without any valuable" or other considera- tion. These certificates the defendant sur- rendered to the corporation and had new ones issued in his own name. According to the laws of Hawaii and the company's articles of incorporation a transfer of stock may be made in this way. The de- livery of the stock, however, was made without the knowledge orconsentof Anna C. Spreckels, and the defendant never paid anything to either of the plaintiffs for the same. Anna C. Spreckels never gave her consent in writing or otherwise to the delivery, transfer or gift of tne stock, and never rati- fied or sanctioned the action of her husband in the matter. At the time of the transfer the stock was yielding large dividends and continues to do so. These dividends, amounting to about $5000 monthly, the defendant col- lected until restrained by the order of the court on May 18, 1895. As the pre- tended owner of the stock the de- fendant continues to hold possession and and appropriates the dividends to his own use. He now threatens to sell the stock, which is now within the jurisdiction of the California courts, to parties in Hawaii and in case it is sent put of the State it will be lo3t to the plaintiffs and they will be obliged to go to Honolulu and prosecute suits there in order to recover the stock in question or the proceeds of its sale. The stock ,n question is valued at $500,000. The court is asked to restrain the rie;e!idant from sending the stock or any portion of it out of the State, and to order its return to the plaintiffs without delay; and further, to give a full accounting of all the dividends received by him. Upon reading the amended complaint Judge SJack made the orier continuing the old injunction in force pending the suit, which, as one well-known attorney said yesterday, "means until the rights of the parties a're finally determined in the Supreme Court." FROM A WAR-TIME DIARY. Mri. Van Pelt Relates Her Girlhood Im- pressions of the Rebellion. Mrs. Ada Henry Van Pelt went back to Civil War times in the auditorium of the Y. M. C. A. building; went back not only to the quaint and picturesque dress of tne early Ws, but to a diary of old war times, in which she was a young girl living with loyal r>arents almost in the heart of the battle-swept South. Standing before her audience like a vision of bygone times, Mrs. Van Pelt was dressed in a robe remarkable for its droop- ing sleeves and expansive, flowing skirt. Sue read from her diary her impressions of the war as it was being waged on all sides of the old plantation home in the southern ] art of Kentucky near the border - line of lennessee. The record was full of reminescences of Southern Jife, darkey humor and inci- dents that often impress only a woman, I but that, when recalled as Mrs. Van Pelt pictured them, added a feminine gentle- ness and pathos to this particular one of hundreds of lectures on the greatest war of modern times. Mrs. Van Pelt's father was a banker, and as was the custom then the bank was a building adjoining the residence. The preservation of the Government treasure from the ever-eager guerrillas and the strategy employed in the successful Hiding of the coin and bank notes form one of ttie most striking details of the life of suspense in which the Union sympathizers lived. They were within hearing distance of the "guns of Fort Donaldson, and yet it was a week before they knew that the Union forces under the young and until then little-known Grant had been victorious. A pathetic account was given of the con- version of two churches in the little town into temporary hospitals, and of some of the scenes enacted there by the wounaed and dying of both sides. The whole' lecture was illustrated by stereopticon views from oil paintings, made especially for the purpose by Arthur Matthews, the" well-known artist of this City, and by some prominent Eastern artists. All the landscape scenes were in color?. Portraits of the well-known heroes of the war were thrown upon the screen at inter- vals and the list was completed with Grant, the silent man of destiny, and with Abraham Lincoln, whom Mrs. Van Pelt characterized as the greatest man of history. During the evening patriotic selections were sung by a quartet in the gallery, and the concluding piece was "America," in which the audience united. NOE VALLEY UP IN ARMS The San Miguel Defense Asso- ciation Has Engaged a Law Firm. Rousing Meeting of Property-Owners Held and a Subscription List Started. The San Miguel Defense Association held a rousing meeting last night at Jud- son Hall. The question so long agitated by the property-owners as to who shall undertake the defense of the suit and how it shall be conducted was satisfactorily settled. At last night's meeting four bids, sub- mitted by different attorneys, were read and discussed at length. A committee of live was finally appointed to consider the offers and make a recommendation for one of them. The bid of Attorneys Lane & Lane was accepted by a unanimous vote. Tlie offer reads as follows: To Captain Robirt W. Anderson and other mem- b(m of the Wttt df Caftro Improvement Club GBNTUKIfKN: At the solicitation of several of your members wo beg leave to submit the fol- lowing proposition relating to The defense of your proposition against the attack of the Noe heir*,: If j - ou will guarantee us the defense of at lea?; 500 lots we will defend them through the Superior and Supreme courts for a fee of $1 a lot. The County Clerk informs us that defend- ants can be grouped in answering and pay but a fee of $1 per answer. This will enable us to answer in the present case for many defend- ants at once autl divide the expense among them, which would make it but a lew cents Kpiece probably* We should say that tne total court expenses, where so many are united In a common de- fense, would not exceed 50 cents a lot. Of Course, where default has been taken lo set default aside would necessitate extra expense and labor, and such cases Could not be taken at so low a figure. The ends aimed at can perhaps be best at- tained with least expense and more perfect guarantee on both sides if your club will ap- point a small and representative committee, which shall have charge of all details and shall obtain the co-operation of as many lot-owners as possible and collect and hoMthe fees. Messrs. A. J. Rich <fc Co., real estate dealers, have placed with us the defense of thirtv lots, and taese you may Include in the 500. Yours respectfully, Lane & Lane. A committee, composed of Captain Robert Anderson, F. E. Hackney and W. E. Nixon, was appointed to devise ways and means for collecting the necessary money and to report at the meeting next Friday night. A roll was prepared for each member to siiin as a pledge of the dollar to be paid at the next meeting, and at the suggestion of Mr. Smith the secretary was directed to deliver a notice by mail to the active mem- bers who would use their influence in ex- plaining the nature of the offer to other memDers and use their persuasion to, bring them to the next meeting. LOCAL LABOR UNIONS. To Assist the Cause of the 700 Detroit Cigar-Makers Out on Strike. The local Labor Council decided last night to assist the cigar-makers of Detroit that are out on strike because child-labor has been employed in seven cigar factories of that city to the displacementof 700 men. William Strauss, president of Cigar- makers' Union No. 32, presented the De- troit case and as a result of his remarks a committee consisting of T. F. Burns of the Cigar-markers' Union, Harry Orr of the Typoaraphical I'nion and William Zahn of the Brewery Workmen's Union were at>- pointed to confer with a local firm that is known to deal in cigars made by the of- fending factories. Since June 6, when the strike was de- clared, Strauss has been traveling over a large part of the United States, speaking before labor unions and applying to deal- ers and consumers, requesting them not to purchase the Detroit cigars made by the particular firms that are employing only child labor. "The strike has been a long and cer- sistent one," said Strauss, "and there has been scarcely an individual of the hun- dreds of aggrieved ones to relent during the entire six months, and they are still out. \u25a0'Slowly but certainly the rigar-makers saw that they were being discharged by the eight companies, and they saw little children, apparently about 10 years of age, taking their places. When 250 men had been discharged within a few days the union thought it time to declare a strike before they should all be on the street and the effect of a strike lost. The National Cigar-makers' Union upheld our action, and it has stood by us and helped us finan- cially ever since we went out. •'One of the factories afterward acceded to our demand, but seven are employing little children at 90 cents a week to do an inferior grade of work at a low price that will make it possible to market a much cheaper article. The children have cer- tificates stating that they are 14 years old, but it is evident that many of them are much younger. With the large families of the unemployed poor every little counts, and the children take the work, not from choice but from necessity, for in very many cases the children are doing the* work that the father formerly per- formed at decent wages." The International Furniture-workers' Union has amalgamated with the Inter- national Machine Woodworkers' Union, and the new combination is known as the Amalgamated Woodworkers' Union and embraces a membership in America of •boat 50.000 men, with National head- quarters in Chicago. To Oust Attorney Coffey. The petition of Annie J. McAndrews Heber to have J. J. Coffey removed from the guardian-. ship ot her property and have 11. M. ileruun substituted in his place was filed yesterday. The document allegeß unprofessional conduct on Coffer's part, substantially as has already been published. The case will be heard before Judge Coffey on December 2. » * » THE GARBAGE CREMATORY. A. E. Williams Claims the Right to the Franchise for It. Ab the result of an application made by A. E. Williams last April for a franchise to construct and operate a garbage crema- tory, the Board of Supervisors advertised for bids for such a franchise. Mr. Williams put in a bid of $2000 and $28,000 additional, to be paid in install- ments extending over a period of thirty- five years, the proposed life of the fran- chise. He also stated that his charge to the public for disposing of the garbage would be 25 cents a cubic yard. Henry J. Lang also put in a bid offering $1100 ' for the franchise and agreeing to charge 20 cents per cubic yard for dispos- ing of the garbage. On the 30th of September last the board rejected both bids on the ground that the advertisement for bids should have asked for bids on the franchise and also for the charge to be made for disposing of garbage. Mr. Williams claims he should have been granted the franchise, as the statute of March 23, 1893. providing for the sale at public auction of franchises, states clearly and explicitly that the franchise, after it bad been properly advertised and offered, "must" be granted to the highest bidder. Last week the board advertised for new bids for a garbage crematory, and Mr. Williams states that he will next week in- stitute proceedings to compel the board to grant him the francnise in question and to enjoin the board from granting it to any other person, corporation or company. « » CAPT. WING DISGUSTED. He Will Not Refit His Ships in This Port Any More Because of High Port Charges. High port charges are driving shipping away from San Francisco. The big New Bedford whaling firm of J. &W. R. Wing has for the past ten years refitted its ves- sels in this port. During that, time it has expended over half a million dollars. Three of its vessels— the Cape Horn Pigeon, Charles W. Morgan and Alice Knowles— sailed for the southern seas, and it cost $30,000 to refit them and get them away. Allthat money was spent in San Francisco, and the merchants got the good of it. Those days are past, however, and the chances are that not one of J. & W. R. Wing's fleet will ever be seen at this port again. Mr. Wing is disgusted with the port charges, and says that in future he will make Panama his home port. At that point he has just as good shipping facili- ties as in San Francisco, while the rates for wharfage and port charges are not half as hieh. Goods may be a little more ex- pensive, but the saving on the other end will more than compensate for that. "1 don't think Mr. Wing willever again bring his ships to San Francisco," said a whaling captain yesterday. "He is dis- gusted, and does not scruple to say so. I don't think he has definitely settled upon Panama for headquarters. He may go to Honolulu, and I think that would be the better place of the two. In Honolulu he can get a new crew if necessary, and in Panama he could not. It is a pity he is going, as it will give this port a black eye."

Montgomery Hare, the resident man- ager of the Norwich Insurance Union in New York, has been in this City several days in the interest of his company. His vi-it lias resulted in a radical change which will cause considerable surprise in insurance circles. It lias brought about the disruption of two very important lire insurance corporations on the Pacific Coast after they had been united in busi- ness for several years. It was announced yesterday through him that the Norwich Union and the Royal would part company, one of them eoing out of Kolla V. Watt's office, to be replaced by the Queen Insurance Com- pany of America from the office of Boyd A Dickson. The Queen Company will then be taken by Mr. Watt. The Norwich Union, the Royal, the Qunen and the Royal Exchange concerns were formerly in a pool in London which held good in the United States, but re- cently this compact was broken and now they will all continue in business inde- pendent of one another. HER PERILOUS PASSAGE. The British Ship Reliance Came Here Via the Cape of Good Hope. She Was Caught in Three Heavy Hurricanes and Her Cargo Shifted Twice. Two hurricanes encountered, whole suits of sails blown away, yards by the board, cargo shifted and a man killed, is the rec- ord of tire eventful voyage of the British ship Reliance, which arrived from Swansea yesterday. After making several attempts to round the Horn, Captain Robinson gave it up in disgust and cleared away for New Zealand, finally reaching San Francisco by the way of the Cape of Good Hope. During her long run the eood ship covered 25,276 knots, at an average speed of six and a half knots an hour, which is a remarkably good showing when all the circumstances are taken into account. "We left Swansea on June 27 last," said Captain Robinson yesterday. "Off Cape Clear we had a heavy caie, during the course of which our cargo shifted. The storm only lasted twelve hours, and then we set to work to trim ship. After that all went well until we were off the River Platte, where a hurricane struck us. The sails were blown out of the bolt-ropes and everything movable on deck was washed overboard. The cargo shifted again, and the ship took a heavy list. I saw that we were in a dangerous predicament so I put the shin before the wind, and after trim- ming the cargo I ran down the easting as far as the south coast of New Zealand. "Our troubles were not all over, however, A revolving hurricane caught us this time and auaiii our sails went flying away like so many kite?. The mercurial barometer fell from :K).40 to 28.40 and the aneroids from .'50.60 to 25.40. The hurricnne began at north-northeast and lusted fifty-six hours. Durine that time almost every one of the crew was on dock ana it kept one guessing to tell which direction the wind would come from. After that expe- rience we had fair weather to San Fran- cisco. "On July 17 we had a terrible accident. Lewis Farrington, aged 20 years, was on the mainyard attending to some work*. He made a misstep, lost his hold or some- thing happened and he fell headfirst to the deck. He lived for nearly thirty hours and everything possible was done for him. He never regained consciousness after the fall. We buried him at sea." In spite of her long passage and all the rough weather she lias gone through the Reliance looks spick and span and Captain Robinson is justly proud of his ship. dii:i>.

SIR PLAY WAS FULL OF RUN. Pepper Had Too Much Class About Him for His Company in the Handicap. Four straight favorites won at Ingleside yesterday, but Willie Martin managed to finish second with All Over, on which a ton of money was played to win the last race, and the talent's gains all went back to the bookies again, supplemented by a few additional dollars. The downfall of rain during the night left the track in a sloppy condition. A heavy mist settled over the course toward nightfall, totally obscuring a view of the horses in the last race and partially so in the two preceding races. The attendance was good and the bet- ting spirited, even though Riley Grannan's familiar figure was missed from the ring. Willie Martin carried off the jockey honors, riding two winners and once finish- ing second. Backed down from 4^ to 1to twos. Red Glenn, with Coady up, took the opening race, over seven furlongs, in a drive from the 10-to-l chance, E. H. Shirley. Patriot, who was in front most of the way, finished third. Our Maggie held sway in the betting for a time on the next race, a mile selling dash, but finally gave way to Basso, who went to the post a 7-to-5 favorite. Roma held a slight advantage over the favorite for something over half the distance, when Bergen gave him his head and he romped in the easiest of winners, five lengths be- fore Our Maggie. The owners' handicap, at five furlongs, for two-year-olds, with six starters, re- sulted in a very impressive win for Green Morris' speedy youngster, Sir Play, who went bark in the betting from 6 to 5 to 9to 5. He passed Joan in the stretch, and S beat her easily by a length. Mobalaska, i whose price was hammered down from 4% >, to 2 to 1, could rinish no better than third. The mile and a furlong handicap, with four starters, furnished another favorite that did not receive strong support. Pep- per opened at 6 to 5, and 9 to 5 was obtain- able when the. horses were called out., the biggest portion of the coin going in on Peter 11. Martin on Pepper took things easy until well into the stretch, where he ilet out a wrap, and shaking off the second I choice won hands down. Moderocia was j third in front of Arapahoe, with Griffinup, who was expected to be a factor in the race but rari disappointingly. A seven-furlong dash that was run in the fog sent the crowd home much lighter in pocket. All Over was plunged on, but when the horses came into view a short distance from the wire, Chartreuse, with sevens about her in the ring, waa leading the first choice, and the Cheviot filly beat him out handily by four lengths in 1:31%. Shield Bearer was a poor third. Track and Paddock Items. Hugh Jones, whose luck of late seems to have undergone a change for the better, quit $2500 ahead on the day. He took a hard fall out of All Over, and had Roma finished first would have added a few thousands more to his bank account. Riley Grannan, who is now said to be about $33,000 behind the game, took a va- cation yesterday and did not appear at the track. To-day's fine card will proba- bly find the plunger on deck again. The well-known turfman, R. Van Brunt, will sell a fine-looking weanling, half- brother to his good performer Cabrillo, at the conclusion'of the sale of the yearlings j owned by the estate of Colonel H. I. Thornton Tuesday evening next. The youngster's sire is imp. Friar Tuck, whose get show such a world of speed, and from such a good mare as Lizzie Hampton, can hardly help being a "crackajack. Had Garner on E. H. Shirley in the opening race kept in close to the rail in- | stead of turning wide into the stretch and takine the outside of the track, in all like- lihood his mount's number would have been hoisted over that of Red Glenn. The feature of the card to-day is the i Horse Show Association stakes for two- year-olds at seven furlongs, worth $1500 to j the first horse. The race seems a very ' open betting one, and a pretty contest is I looked forward to. "THE CALL" RACING CHART. eighth Day of tho Pacific Coast Jockey Club Meeting:. Weather misty.

Gray, a veteran of the Civil War and a member of George H. Thomas Po3t, G. A. R.. was given a verdict in his suit in the Justices' Court against P. E. O'Hare yesterday. Gray, who is about 65 years of age, testi- fied that he had purchased a lampwick at O'Hare's hardware-store, 134 Fourth street, some time ago, ana had been overcharged. On October 12 he again entered the place and complained of the matter. Accord- ing to his story, O'Hare attacked him with his fists andkalso threatened to brain him with an ax. During the melee he lost several teeth and was bruised and battered until almost in a state of insensibility. He sued for $250 damages for personal in- juries, and as the defense of O'Hare was far from satisfactory to Justice Groezin- ger, before whom the case was tried, Gray was given a verdict for the full amount, with costs. Silver novelties and useful articles for writing-desks and dressing-tables. Beautiful designs and low prices. Sanborn, Vail &Co. * ARGUES FOR HIGH TARIFF. A Protectionist Takes Issue With Saroni's Views of Reve- nue Laws. ndorses the Work of the Manufac- turers' and Producers' Associa- tion of California. An advocate of high tariff for the protec- tion of American interests and American labor, who indorses the work of the Manu- facturers' and Producers' Association, sends the following pertinent argument in favor of protection : San Francisco, Cal., Dec. 4, 1895. To the Editor of the San Francisco Call— Dear Sir: I read in this morning's issue of your val- uable paper the proceedings of a Manufactur- ers' Association committee, ana the writer hereof heartily concurs in the sentiments ex- pressed at that meeting by Mr. Sonntag, but I would not advocate the exclusion of the cheap labor manufactures of the Japanese, while al- lowing the importation of the manufactured articles of the Chinese, which come in iireci competition with the productions and labor of our own country. A proper tariff a tariff law framed and en- acted for the American people, would remedy the evils that threaten the industries of the United States. Alow tariff only tends to bring the laboring man down to the level of the wage- worker in the countries of the Ol<l World. Tne present tariff laws were not framed in the in- terest of American manufacturers nor of American labor, out they were conceived and enacted in the interest of free-trade England. Under a high protective tariff our country was rich and prosperous; fche laborer and mechanic owned their own homes; their wives and children were well fed and well cjothed. Without protection to home labor and home production, the wageworker will become like unto a beast of burden. His lot will be one without a cheering hope and his future will present nothing but a dark chaos of despair. Mr. Saroni argues that the matter of protection is entirely without the scope of the Manufac- tures' and Producers' Association, and that this association should deal alone with State and not with National problems. He asserts that such restrictions as suggested by Mr. Sonntag would put the community entirely at the mercy of trusts and combinations. The population of this community and of these United States is composed largely of la- boring men, who depend entirely upon their daily wage for the support and education of their, families. Mr. Saroni fears trusts and combinations. Itis not the purpose of this communication to discuss the advantages or the disadvantages of the various commercial trusts existing throughout our country, but were I a wageworker depending upon my em- ployment for my own and my children's sup- port, I would infinitely rather toil for a trust which employed largecapital and reaped a large income, than to find employment with one compelled to compete with the pauper price of labor paid to Asiatic and other cheap manufacturing countriesof the world. I think my pay would be better from the combination than from the other Mr. Saroni is an American manufacturer, and I wonder that he cannot see and realize the benefits to the masses arising from a high protective tariff. Itcertainly cannot be possi- ble that Mr.Saroni would prefer to employ the products of Asia, where labor does not com- mand more than 10 cents per diem, in the process of his own manufacture, rather than to encourage and assist in fostering a home industry which employs severitl hundred thousand honest American laborers. Mr. Saroni certainly would not desire to see his neighbor working from early mom until night for the small pittance of 10 cents, and yet without protection to our home industries, our home manufactures, and to American labor, the low wage must be the result. Xo, Mr.Saroni, this country will never be pros- perous nor happy except under a protective policy. Bismarck, the greatest German statesman, said in one of his greatest speeches: •'The success of the United States in material development is the most illustrious of modern times. The American Nation has not only successfully Dome and suppressed the mo«t expensive and gigantic war of all history, but immediately afterward it disbanded its army, found employment for all its soldiers ai.'d marines, paid off most of its debt and pave labor and homes to all the unemployed of Europe as fast as thev could arrive within its territory, and still by a system of taxation so indirect as not to be perceived much lt-ssielt. Because it is my deliberate judgment that the prosperity of America is dm t<> its system of protective laws, I urge that Germany has now leached that point where it is necVssary to imitate the tariff system of the United States." Yours truly, Protectionist. NEW NORTH-END STATION. It Will Be on Washington Street, Near Van Nprs Avenue. The Health and Police Committee of the Board of [supervisors settled the matter of the new North-end station yesterday by approving a contract with John McCarthy, the wholesale tea merchant, for the erec- tion of a new station, according to Police Department plans, on property owned by him on Washington street, between Polk street and Van Ness avenue. The rental is to be $90 a month, and the station is to be ready by February 1. It will be a neat and convenient station, and the department will have things just as they are wanted. The structure will be 33 by 70 feet in size and of two stories, con- taining offices, five cells, etc., oti the first floor and above a drillroom and sleeping accommodations, to be used if they are wanted. There willalso be a stable and shed for the patrol-wagon. MRS. M'ALLISTES DEAD. The Injuries Received From Being; Struck by a Powell-Street Car End Fatally. Mrs. Annie McAllister, who was injured by a Powell-street car at the c jrner of Ma- son and Jackson streets on Tuesday evening last, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Aitken, 1602 Taylor street, at mid- night last night. The injuries Mrs. McAllister received were pronounced probably fatal by Dr. Fitzgibbon when she was taken to the Re- ceiving Hospital. Both her legs were broken and she was injured internally. Her sufferings were intense, and as she was 52 years of age she was unable to withstand the severity of her hurts and the shock re- ceived. Deceased was the widow of the late G. W. McAllister and mother of Mrs. Katie Kane, Mrs. Annie Aitken, Mrs. M. Reiss, Mrs. P. Levy and George \V. McAllister. She was well known and highly respected by a large circle of friends and loved by family and relatives. JUDGE CAMPBELL QUITS. Declares That He Will Not Hold Qourt Again Until New Quarters Are Given Him. Judge Campbell has finally and pos- itively vacated the damp and musty court- room in the basement of the new City Hall. He stoutly affirms that no further business will be transacted in Department 3 until better quarters are furnished. When court opened yesterday morning there was the customary aggregation or prisoners on hand. "This court stands adjourned," said Judge Campbell. "I will not longer act contrary to the orders of the Health Offi- cer. He has ordered me to vacate these premises and I will do so. When the Su- pervisors or City Hall Commissioners pro- vide another room I will be prepared to discharge the duties of the court. 5 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1*95.

Page 1: RUDOLPH SPRECKELS IS AGAIN ENJOINED FIRST …chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn85066387/1895-12-07/ed-1/seq-5.pdf · All the Technical Objections Raised to the Original Complaint

RUDOLPH SPRECKELS IS AGAIN ENJOINEDThe Paauhau Stock Is to

Remain TiedUp.

A POINT FOR PLAINTIFF.

An Important Issue of Wide-spread and General Interest

Involved.

RIGHTS OF MARRIED WOMEN.

All the Technical Objections Raisedto the Original Complaint Have

Been Met.

Upon motion of Samuel M. Shortridgeof the firm of Delmas & Shortridge, at-torneys for Claus Spreckels and his wife,Judge Slack made a special order yester-day continuing in force indefinitely theinjunction issued last May restrainingRudolph Spreckels from disposing of thestock in the Paauhau Plantation Company,claimed by Mr. and Mrs. Spreckels.

This was a strong point in favor of theplaintiffs in the celebrated suit, and isindirectly in the interest of every womanin California who is, or who hopes to be,married.It was claimed by Rudolph Spreckels

that in 1893 Claus Spreckels, his father,made him a giftof half a million dollars'worth of stock in the Paauhau PlantationCompany, despite the fact that the lawtnen required that gifts of communityproperty could be made legally only withthe consent of the wife in writing. Thisstock, it is alleged, was then part of thecommunity property of Claus Spreckelsana his wife, Anna C. Spreckels, and shehas never given her consent in writing orin any other vray to the alleged gift. Infact, it is claimed by her attorneys thatthere was no gift, by reason of the law re-ferred to.

Suit was therefore commenced last Mayin the names of Claus and Anna C.Spreckels to require Rudolph to returnthis stock. After considering the com-plaint Judge Slack granted an injunctionrestraining Rudolph from selling or dis-posing of his stock.

But the defendant did not propose toreturn so valuable a holding without abitter right and raised all sorts of tech-nical objections to the method of the pro-ceedings.

Great interest has been exhibited in thecase, not only on the part of the women ofthe State, bin by attorneys generally, andby all persons interested in the bankingand loaning institutions of California.The questions involved are also of interestto every purchaser of real estate, and toall who have large dealings of any nature.

Heretofore, the rights of married womenin the community property acquired bythemselves alone, or in connection•with their husbands, have beenconsidered of so indefinite a character thateven in cases where the law has expresslyprovided that the signature of the wifeshall not be necessary, every lawyer ofstanding and aoility,.' every banker andcvrv careful buyer of real estate ha3 re-qui-ed the wife to sign all papers con-nected with the transfer of property.

The attorneys for the plaintiffs claimthat the section of the code which es-pecially provides that husbands shall not;j;ve away the community property with-out the written consent of the wife is notonly a just and -wise provision for the pro-tection of married women, but oneframed and binding to establish theirrights. It is this law that is being at-tacked by-Rudolph Spreckels as an uncon-stitutional and unjust law.

The many technical objections raised tothe first complaint in this vastly interest-ing suit seemed to be fully met in theamended complaint, which was filedyesterday.

Briefly the new complaint allepes thatClaus and Anna C. Spreckels were marriedin 1852.

On July 31, 1893, they owned and, as isclaimed, still own 5000 shares of stock ofthe Paauhau Plantation Company, a Ha-waiian corporation. Claus Spreckels ap-peared on the books as the owner of thestock. On the day named Claus Spreckelsindorsed the certificates of stocks in blankand transferred them to the defendantwithout any valuable" or other considera-tion. These certificates the defendant sur-rendered to the corporation and had newones issued in his own name. Accordingto the laws of Hawaii and the company'sarticles of incorporation a transfer ofstock may be made in this way. The de-livery of the stock, however, was madewithout the knowledge orconsentof AnnaC. Spreckels, and the defendant never paidanything to either of the plaintiffs for thesame.

Anna C. Spreckels never gave her consentin writing or otherwise to the delivery,transfer or giftof tne stock, and never rati-fied or sanctioned the action of herhusband in the matter. At the timeof the transfer the stock wasyielding large dividends and continues todo so. These dividends, amounting toabout $5000 monthly, the defendant col-lected until restrained by the order of thecourt on May 18, 1895. As the pre-tended owner of the stock the de-fendant continues to hold possession andand appropriates the dividends to his ownuse. He now threatens to sell the stock,which is now within the jurisdiction of theCalifornia courts, to parties in Hawaii andin case it is sent put of the State itwill be lo3t to the plaintiffs andthey willbe obliged to go to Honolulu andprosecute suits there in order to recoverthe stock in question or the proceeds of itssale. The stock ,n question is valued at$500,000. The court is asked to restrain therie;e!idant from sending the stock or anyportion of itout of the State, and to orderits return to the plaintiffs without delay;and further, to give a full accounting ofall the dividends received by him.

Upon reading the amended complaintJudge SJack made the orier continuing

the old injunction in force pending thesuit, which, as one well-known attorneysaid yesterday, "means until the rights ofthe parties a're finally determined in theSupreme Court."

FROM A WAR-TIME DIARY.Mri.Van Pelt Relates Her Girlhood Im-

pressions of the Rebellion.Mrs. Ada Henry Van Pelt went back to

Civil War times in the auditorium of theY. M. C. A.building; went back not only

to the quaint and picturesque dress of tne

early Ws, but to a diary of old war times,

in which she was a young girl living withloyal r>arents almost in the heart of thebattle-swept South.

Standing before her audience like a

vision of bygone times, Mrs. Van Pelt wasdressed ina robe remarkable for its droop-

ing sleeves and expansive, flowing skirt.Sue read from her diary her impressionsof the war as it was being waged on allsides of the old plantation home in thesouthern ]art of Kentucky near

the border- line of lennessee. The

record was full of reminescencesof Southern Jife, darkey humor and inci-dents that often impress only a woman, I

but that, when recalled as Mrs. Van Peltpictured them, added a feminine gentle-ness and pathos to this particular one ofhundreds of lectures on the greatest war ofmodern times.

Mrs. Van Pelt's father was a banker, andas was the custom then the bank was abuilding adjoining the residence. Thepreservation of the Government treasurefrom the ever-eager guerrillas and thestrategy employed in the successfulHiding of the coin and bank notesform one of ttie most striking details ofthe life of suspense in which the Unionsympathizers lived. They were withinhearing distance of the "guns of FortDonaldson, and yet it was a week beforethey knew that the Union forces under theyoung and until then little-known Granthad been victorious.

A pathetic account was given of the con-version of two churches in the little towninto temporary hospitals, and of some ofthe scenes enacted there by the wounaedand dying of both sides.

The whole' lecture was illustrated bystereopticon views from oil paintings,made especially for the purpose by ArthurMatthews, the" well-known artist of thisCity, and by some prominent Easternartists. Allthe landscape scenes were incolor?.

Portraits of the well-known heroes of thewar were thrown upon the screen at inter-vals and the list was completed withGrant, the silent man of destiny, and withAbraham Lincoln, whom Mrs. Van Peltcharacterized as the greatest man ofhistory.

During the evening patriotic selectionswere sung by a quartet in the gallery, andthe concluding piece was "America," inwhich the audience united.

NOE VALLEY UP IN ARMSThe San Miguel Defense Asso-

ciation Has Engaged aLaw Firm.

Rousing Meeting of Property-OwnersHeld and a Subscription List

Started.

The San Miguel Defense Associationheld a rousing meeting last night at Jud-son Hall.

The question so long agitated by theproperty-owners as to who shall undertakethe defense of the suit and how it shall beconducted was satisfactorily settled.

Atlast night's meeting four bids, sub-mitted by different attorneys, were read anddiscussed at length. A committee of livewas finally appointed to consider theoffers and make a recommendation for oneof them.

The bid of Attorneys Lane & Lane wasaccepted by a unanimous vote. Tlie offerreads as follows:

To Captain Robirt W. Anderson and other mem-b(m of the Wttt df Caftro Improvement Club

—GBNTUKIfKN: At the solicitation of several ofyour members wo beg leave to submit the fol-lowing proposition relating to The defense ofyour proposition against the attack of the Noeheir*,:

Ifj-ou will guarantee us the defense of at

lea?; 500 lots we will defend them through theSuperior and Supreme courts for a fee of $1 alot.

The County Clerk informs us that defend-ants can be grouped in answering and pay buta fee of $1 per answer. This will enable us toanswer in the present case for many defend-ants at once autl divide the expense amongthem, which would make it but a lew centsKpiece probably*

We should say that tne total court expenses,where so many are united Ina common de-fense, would not exceed 50 cents a lot. OfCourse, where default has been taken lo setdefault aside would necessitate extra expenseand labor, and such cases Could not be taken atso low a figure.

The ends aimed at can perhaps be best at-tained with least expense and more perfectguarantee on both sides if your club willap-point a small and representative committee,which shall have charge of all detailsand shall obtain the co-operation of asmany lot-owners as possible and collect andhoMthe fees.

Messrs. A.J. Rich <fc Co., real estate dealers,have placed with us the defense of thirtv lots,and taese you may Include in the 500. Yoursrespectfully, Lane & Lane.

A committee, composed of CaptainRobert Anderson, F. E. Hackney and W.E. Nixon, was appointed to devise waysand means for collecting the necessarymoney and to report at the meeting nextFriday night.

A roll was prepared for each member tosiiin as a pledge of the dollar tobe paid atthe next meeting, and at the suggestion ofMr. Smith the secretary was directed todeliver a notice by mail to the active mem-bers who would use their influence in ex-plaining the nature of the offer to othermemDers and use their persuasion to, bringthem to the next meeting.

LOCAL LABOR UNIONS.To Assist the Cause of the 700 Detroit

Cigar-Makers Out onStrike.

The local Labor Council decided lastnight to assist the cigar-makers of Detroitthat are out on strike because child-laborhas been employed in seven cigar factoriesof that city to the displacementof 700 men.

William Strauss, president of Cigar-makers' Union No. 32, presented the De-troit case and as a result of his remarks acommittee consisting of T. F. Burns of theCigar-markers' Union, Harry Orr of theTypoaraphical I'nion and William Zahn ofthe Brewery Workmen's Union were at>-pointed to confer with a local firm that isknown to deal in cigars made by the of-fending factories.

Since June 6, when the strike was de-clared, Strauss has been traveling over alarge part of the United States, speakingbefore labor unions and applying to deal-ers and consumers, requesting them notto purchase the Detroit cigars made bythe particular firms that are employingonly child labor.

"The strike has been a long and cer-sistent one," said Strauss, "and there hasbeen scarcely an individual of the hun-dreds of aggrieved ones to relent duringthe entire six months, and they are stillout.

\u25a0'Slowly but certainly the rigar-makerssaw that they were being discharged bythe eight companies, and they saw littlechildren, apparently about 10 years of age,taking their places. When 250 men hadbeen discharged within a few days theunion thought it time to declare a strikebefore they should all be on the street andthe effect of a strike lost. The NationalCigar-makers' Union upheld our action,and it has stood by us and helped us finan-cially ever since we went out.

•'One of the factories afterward accededto our demand, but seven are employinglittlechildren at 90 cents a week to do aninferior grade of work at a low price thatwill make it possible to market a muchcheaper article. The children have cer-tificates stating that they are 14 years old,but it is evident that many of them aremuch younger. With the large familiesof the unemployed poor every littlecounts, and the children take the work,not from choice but from necessity, for invery many cases the children are doingthe* work that the father formerly per-formed at decent wages."

The International Furniture-workers'Union has amalgamated with the Inter-national Machine Woodworkers' Union,and the new combination is known as theAmalgamated Woodworkers' Union andembraces a membership in America of•boat 50.000 men, with National head-quarters in Chicago.

To Oust Attorney Coffey.

The petition of Annie J. McAndrews Heber

to have J. J. Coffey removed from the guardian-.ship ot her property and have 11. M. ileruun

substituted in his place was filed yesterday.The document allegeß unprofessional conducton Coffer's part, substantially as has alreadybeen published. The case willbe heard beforeJudge Coffey on December 2.

THE GARBAGE CREMATORY.A. E. Williams Claims the Right to the

Franchise for It.

Ab the result of an application made byA. E. Williams last April for a franchiseto construct and operate a garbage crema-tory, the Board of Supervisors advertisedfor bids for such a franchise.

Mr. Williams put in a bid of $2000 and$28,000 additional, to be paid in install-ments extending over a period of thirty-five years, the proposed life of the fran-chise. He also stated that his charge tothe public for disposing of the garbagewould be 25 cents a cubic yard.

Henry J. Lang also put ina bid offering$1100

'for the franchise and agreeing to

charge 20 cents per cubic yard for dispos-ing of the garbage.

On the 30th of September last the boardrejected both bids on the ground that theadvertisement forbids should have askedforbids on the franchise and also for thecharge to be made for disposing of garbage.

Mr.Williams claims he should havebeen granted the franchise, as the statuteof March 23, 1893. providing for the sale atpublic auction of franchises, states clearlyand explicitly that the franchise, after itbad been properly advertised and offered,"must" be granted to the highest bidder.

Last week the board advertised for newbids for a garbage crematory, and Mr.Williams states that he willnext week in-stitute proceedings to compel the board togrant him the francnise inquestion and toenjoin the board from granting it to anyother person, corporation or company.•—«

CAPT. WING DISGUSTED.He Will Not Refit HisShips inThis Port

Any More Because of High

Port Charges.

Highport charges are driving shippingaway from San Francisco. The big NewBedford whaling firm of J. &W. R. Winghas for the past ten years refitted its ves-sels in this port. During that, time ithas expended over half a million dollars.Three of its vessels— the Cape HornPigeon, Charles W. Morgan and AliceKnowles— sailed for the southern seas, anditcost $30,000 to refit them and get themaway. Allthat money was spent in SanFrancisco, and the merchants got thegood of it.

Those days are past, however, and thechances are that not one of J. & W. R.Wing's fleet willever be seen at this portagain. Mr. Wing is disgusted with theport charges, and says that in future hewillmake Panama his home port. Atthatpoint he has just as good shipping facili-ties as in San Francisco, while the ratesfor wharfage and port charges are not halfas hieh. Goods may be a little more ex-pensive, but the saving on the other endwill more than compensate for that.

"1don't think Mr. Wing willever againbring his ships to San Francisco," said awhaling captain yesterday. "He is dis-gusted, and does not scruple to say so. Idon't think he has definitely settled uponPanama for headquarters. He may go toHonolulu, and Ithink that would be thebetter place of the two. InHonolulu hecan get a new crew if necessary, and inPanama he could not. It is a pity he isgoing, as it will give this port a blackeye."

AN INSURANCE DEAL.Bolla V. Watt's CoinpanieH Drift Apart

and He T<tk*>s the "Queen."J. Montgomery Hare, the resident man-

ager of the Norwich Insurance Union inNew York,has been in this City severaldays in the interest of his company. Hisvi-it lias resulted in a radical changewhich willcause considerable surprise ininsurance circles. It lias brought aboutthe disruption of two very important lireinsurance corporations on the PacificCoast after they had been united in busi-ness for several years.

It was announced yesterday throughhim that the Norwich Union and theRoyal would part company, one of themeoing out of Kolla V. Watt's office, to bereplaced by the Queen Insurance Com-pany of America from the office of BoydA Dickson. The Queen Company will thenbe taken by Mr. Watt.

The Norwich Union, the Royal, theQunen and the Royal Exchange concernswere formerly in a pool in London whichheld good in the United States, but re-cently this compact was broken and nowthey will all continue in business inde-pendent of one another.

HER PERILOUS PASSAGE.The British Ship Reliance Came

Here Via the Cape ofGood Hope.

She Was Caught in Three HeavyHurricanes and Her Cargo

Shifted Twice.

Two hurricanes encountered, whole suitsof sails blown away, yards by the board,cargo shifted and a man killed, is the rec-ord of tire eventful voyage of the Britishship Reliance, whicharrived from Swanseayesterday.

After making several attempts to roundthe Horn, Captain Robinson gave itup indisgust and cleared away for New Zealand,finally reaching San Francisco by the wayof the Cape of Good Hope. During herlong run the eood ship covered 25,276knots, at an average speed of six and ahalf knots an hour, which is a remarkablygood showing when all the circumstancesare taken into account.

"We left Swansea on June 27 last," saidCaptain Robinson yesterday. "Off CapeClear we had a heavy caie, during thecourse of which our cargo shifted. Thestorm only lasted twelve hours, and thenwe set to work to trim ship. After that allwent well until we were off the RiverPlatte, where a hurricane struck us. Thesails were blown out of the bolt-ropes andeverything movable on deck was washedoverboard. The cargo shifted again, andthe ship took a heavy list. Isaw that wewere ina dangerous predicament so Iputthe shin before the wind, and after trim-ming the cargo Iran down the easting asfar as the south coast of New Zealand.

"Our troubles were not all over, however,A revolving hurricane caught us this timeand auaiii our sails went flying away likeso many kite?. The mercurial barometerfell from :K).40 to 28.40 and the aneroidsfrom .'50.60 to 25.40. The hurricnne beganat north-northeast and lusted fifty-sixhours. Durine that time almost everyone of the crew was on dock ana it keptone guessing to tell which direction thewind would come from. Afterthat expe-rience we had fair weather to San Fran-cisco.

"On July 17 we had a terrible accident.Lewis Farrington, aged 20 years, was onthe mainyard attending to some work*.He made a misstep, lost his hold or some-thing happened and he fell headfirst tothe deck. He lived for nearly thirty hoursand everything possible was done for him.He never regained consciousness after thefall. We buried him at sea."

In spite of her long passage and all therough weather she lias gone through theReliance looks spick and span and CaptainRobinson is justly proud of his ship.

FIRST CHOICES IN FRONTAll Over, Who Got Lost in the

Fog, Was the Only FavoriteBeaten.

SIR PLAY WAS FULL OF RUN.

Pepper Had Too Much Class AboutHim for His Company in the

Handicap.

Four straight favorites won at Inglesideyesterday, but Willie Martin managed tofinish second with AllOver, on which aton of money was played to win the lastrace, and the talent's gains all went backto the bookies again, supplemented by afew additional dollars.

The downfall of rain during the nightleft the track in a sloppy condition. Aheavy mist settled over the course towardnightfall, totally obscuring a view of thehorses in the last race and partially so inthe two preceding races.

The attendance was good and the bet-ting spirited, even though Riley Grannan'sfamiliar figure was missed from the ring.

Willie Martin carried off the jockeyhonors, riding two winners and once finish-ing second.

Backed down from 4^ to1to twos. RedGlenn, with Coady up, took the openingrace, over seven furlongs, in a drive fromthe 10-to-l chance, E. H. Shirley. Patriot,who was in front most of the way, finishedthird.

Our Maggie held sway in the betting fora time on the next race, a mile selling dash,but finally gave way to Basso, who went tothe post a 7-to-5 favorite. Roma held aslight advantage over the favorite forsomething over half the distance, whenBergen gave him his head and he rompedin the easiest of winners, five lengths be-fore Our Maggie.

The owners' handicap, at five furlongs,

for two-year-olds, with six starters, re-sulted ina very impressive win for GreenMorris' speedy youngster, Sir Play, whowent bark in the betting from 6 to 5 to9to 5. He passed Joan in the stretch, and

S beat her easily by a length. Mobalaska,iwhose price was hammered down from 4%>, to 2 to1, could rinish no better than third.

The mile and a furlong handicap, withfour starters, furnished another favoritethat did not receive strong support. Pep-per opened at 6 to 5, and 9 to 5 was obtain-able when the. horses were called out., thebiggest portion of the coin going in onPeter 11. Martin on Pepper took thingseasy until wellinto the stretch, where he

ilet out a wrap, and shaking off the secondIchoice won hands down. Moderocia wasj third in front of Arapahoe, withGriffinup,who was expected to be a factor in therace but rari disappointingly.

A seven-furlong dash that was run inthe fog sent the crowd home much lighterin pocket. AllOver was plunged on, butwhen the horses came into view a shortdistance from the wire, Chartreuse, withsevens about her in the ring, waa leadingthe first choice, and the Cheviot filly beathim out handily by four lengths in1:31%.Shield Bearer was a poor third.

Track and Paddock Items.Hugh Jones, whose luck of late seems

to have undergone a change for the better,quit$2500 ahead on the day. He took a hard

fall out of AllOver, and had Roma finishedfirst would have added a few thousandsmore to his bank account.

Riley Grannan, who is now said to beabout $33,000 behind the game, took a va-cation yesterday and did not appear atthe track. To-day's fine card will proba-bly find the plunger on deck again.

The well-known turfman, R. Van Brunt,will sell a fine-looking weanling, half-brother to his good performer Cabrillo, atthe conclusion'of the sale of the yearlings

j owned by the estate of Colonel H. I.Thornton Tuesday evening next. Theyoungster's sire is imp. Friar Tuck, whoseget show such a world of speed, and fromsuch a good mare as Lizzie Hampton, canhardly help being a "crackajack.

Had Garner on E. H. Shirley in theopening race kept in close to the rail in-

| stead of turning wide into the stretch andtakine the outside of the track, in all like-lihood his mount's number would havebeen hoisted over that of Red Glenn.

The feature of the card to-day is theiHorse Show Association stakes for two-

year-olds at seven furlongs, worth $1500 toj the first horse. The race seems a very'open betting one, and a pretty contest is

Ilooked forward to.

BATTERED A VETERAN.P. E. Ollino Must Pay 8250 for Beating

an Old Soldier WithHis Fists.

James E. Gray, a veteran of the CivilWar and a member of George H. ThomasPo3t, G. A. R.. was given a verdict in hissuit in the Justices' Court against P. E.O'Hare yesterday. •

Gray, who is about 65 years of age, testi-fied that he had purchased a lampwick atO'Hare's hardware-store, 134 Fourth street,some time ago, ana had been overcharged.

On October 12 he again entered the placeand complained of the matter. Accord-ing to his story, O'Hare attacked him withhis fists andkalso threatened to brain himwith an ax. During the melee he lostseveral teeth and was bruised and battereduntil almost in a state of insensibility.He sued for $250 damages for personal in-juries, and as the defense of O'Hare wasfar from satisfactory to Justice Groezin-ger, before whom the case was tried, Graywas given a verdict for the fullamount,with costs.

ARGUES FOR HIGH TARIFF.A Protectionist Takes Issue With

Saroni's Views ofReve-nue Laws.

ndorses the Work of the Manufac-turers' and Producers' Associa-

tion of California.

An advocate of high tariff for the protec-

tion of American interests and Americanlabor, who indorses the work of the Manu-facturers' and Producers' Association,sends the following pertinent argument infavor of protection:

San Francisco, Cal., Dec. 4, 1895.To the Editor of the San Francisco Call— Dear

Sir:Iread inthis morning's issue of your val-uable paper the proceedings of a Manufactur-ers' Association committee, ana the writerhereof heartily concurs in the sentiments ex-pressed at that meeting by Mr.Sonntag, butIwould not advocate the exclusion of the cheaplabor manufactures of the Japanese, while al-lowing the importation of the manufacturedarticles of the Chinese, which come in iirecicompetition with the productions and labor ofour own country.

A proper tariff—

a tariff law framed and en-acted for the American people, would remedythe evils that threaten the industries of theUnited States. Alow tariff only tends to bringthe laboringman down to the level of the wage-worker inthe countries of the Ol<l World. Tnepresent tariff laws were not framed inthe in-terest of American manufacturers nor ofAmerican labor, out they were conceived andenacted inthe interest of free-trade England.

Under a high protective tariff our countrywas rich and prosperous; fche laborer andmechanic owned their own homes; their wivesand children were well fed and well cjothed.Without protection to home labor and homeproduction, the wageworker will become likeunto a beast of burden. His lot will be onewithout a cheering hope and his future willpresent nothing but a dark chaos of despair.Mr. Saroni argues that the matter of protectionis entirely without the scope of the Manufac-tures' and Producers' Association, and thatthis association should deal alone with Stateand not with National problems. He assertsthat such restrictions as suggested by Mr.Sonntag would put the community entirely atthe mercy of trusts and combinations.

The population of this community and ofthese United States is composed largely of la-boring men, who depend entirely upon theirdaily wage for the support and education oftheir, families. Mr. Saroni fears trusts andcombinations. Itis not the purpose of thiscommunication to discuss the advantages orthe disadvantages of the various commercialtrusts existing throughout our country, butwere Ia wageworker depending upon my em-ployment for my own and my children's sup-port, Iwould infinitely rather toil fora trustwhich employed largecapital and reaped alarge income, than to find employment withone compelled to compete with the pauperprice of labor paid to Asiatic and other cheapmanufacturing countriesof the world. Ithinkmy pay would be better from the combinationthan from the other

Mr.Saroni is an American manufacturer, andIwonder that he cannot see and realize thebenefits to the masses arising from a highprotective tariff. Itcertainly cannot be possi-ble that Mr.Saroni would prefer to employ theproducts of Asia, where labor does not com-mand more than 10 cents per diem, in theprocess of his own manufacture, rather thanto encourage and assist in fostering a homeindustry which employs severitl hundredthousand honest American laborers.

Mr.Saroni certainly would not desire to seehis neighbor working from early mom untilnight for the small pittance of 10 cents, andyet without protection to our home industries,our home manufactures, and to Americanlabor, the low wage must be the result. Xo,Mr.Saroni, this country will never be pros-perous nor happy except under a protectivepolicy.

Bismarck, the greatest German statesman,said in one of his greatest speeches:

•'The success of the United States inmaterialdevelopment is the most illustrious of moderntimes. The American Nation has not onlysuccessfully Dome and suppressed the mo«texpensive and gigantic war of all history, butimmediately afterward it disbanded its army,found employment for all its soldiers ai.'dmarines, paid off most of its debt and pavelabor and homes to all the unemployed ofEurope as fast as thev could arrive within itsterritory, and still by a system of taxation soindirect as not to be perceived much lt-ssielt.Because itis my deliberate judgment that theprosperity of America is dm t<> its system ofprotective laws,Iurge that Germany has nowleached that point where it is necVssary toimitate the tariff system of the United States."Yours truly, Protectionist.
