4 ON A SUGGESTION. The Mercantile Library and Its Affairs. SHALL IT BE A NUCLEUS? It Might Become an Artistic and Social Center. SOME OPINIONS PRO AND CON. The Idea of Enhancing the Usefulness of the Association Generally Welcomed.

The situation in which the Mercantile Library finds itself at the close of the official year is the subject of wide consideration. The membership, which approaches tbe 1000 mark, includes some of the most prominent ladies and gentlemen in the city, and many of them have been connected with the library association since its organization. Naturally, therefore, the destinies of the magnificent building and collection of books touch the intelligence and feeling of the member? very closely. gTM The situation of the library is briefly this: Its revenue is" not at present sufficient to meet expenses and pay interest on a 669,000 mortgage upon its building nt the corner of Van Ness and Golden Gate avenues, which Is conceded to contain the most magnificent library hall in the United Slates. In a few montbs, under the pres- i ent circumstances, the limit to which the trustees are allowed to go in borrowing funds for interest will be reached- Then the mortgage may be foreclosed and the association turned into the streets with its rare books and the proceeds of a forced sale of the building, less the amount of the mortgage and its attendant expenses.

No veteran member or established San Franciscan can regard such a contingency with indifference. The library has been rescued from former slippery places and set upon its feet by loyal friends it can reckon the strength of a time-honored public appreciation of strength among its i valuable assets. Now that, owing to unforeseen pressure, it is again in a critical position, i's friends are rallying to its as- sistance with plans of practical assistance. The nans for relieving the situation i rave, so far, taken three different Hues. One is an heroic suggestion for the appearance of a liberal man with a big pocket- I book, or rather of a hundred of them, each prepared to donate $1000 for the liquidation of the association's indebted- ness.

The second plan involves the sell- ing of the library building, and the renting with the proceeds of downtown quarters, or even the present quarters. The third Is of a general nature, and includes a variety I of schemes for increasing the attractiveness of the present location. It is in pursuance of the third line of action that the quarterly dues were recently reduced to SI 50, and this policy of making the best of the i "bird in hand" seems to be the one which is deemed most feasible at present. Still more far-seeing than making the library "attractive" is the suggestion that it be made more Import and useful. Such a suggestion made editorially In The CALL on Sunday has attracted general attention.

It may be briefly recapitulated by the following extract: But It seems that a plan might be devised by winch the chief attraction of the its splendid room- might be turned to account. I is no such room anywhere In San Fraucisco. There Is no such library hall the United States. It is cent rally located and easy 1 of access. Suppose the subscribers to the Mer- cam were invited form among themselves a society or club for social, literary, musical and artistic purposes.

They could give assemblies In their hall which would probably be- come ibe most fashionable in the city. "They I could give concerts, lectures and exhibitions of pictures. They could charge a round sum for membership in such a society, and the income so derived would supply a fund for the purchase of books and the encouragement of music and art. Would not the body eventually be- come the real center of social life iv this The suggestion included the setting apart of the library hall one night a week for a lecture, concert, dance or picture 1 i show; the co-operation of "persons of so- cial standing and literary and artistic an infusion of femininity into the management, and a final pleasant hint that "250 members of the club at s2o each" would furnish $5000 a year to the library income without increasing its expenses Incidentally it was indicated that such a club might supersede the "present organizations which cherish pretensions to be the only true and original Jacobs." In Which case the estimated number of appli- cants for membership would be exceeded. A tour among some of those most inter- ested in the library showed that the sug- I gestion had fallen upon good ground and is likely to bear fruit in due season.

lis details are not in every case accepted, nor, probably, was the article written on the ironclad lines of a club constitution. But both members of the board of trustees i and subscribers lave evidently hailed the article as welcomely as Congress greets a definite motion raising a direct issue in a tangled discussion. One or two typical opinions will fairly indicate the "pros and eons" elicited by Tiie Call's suggestions. Librarian Coleman preferred to speak of the proposition from a strictly practical aspect of the space demanded in the library hall. lie said that an area of 100x50 feet could, roughly, be furnished for the purposes of a lecture, picture show, dance or concert.

There were, however, fixture difficulties in the way, and the acoustic properties of the hall were an unknown Quantity. Certain lecturers that he could name would doubtless draw a large crowd, and the bookcases could be railed off for safety and convenience. He believed that satisfactory arrangements' could be made to meet plan of converting the library hall to a place of reunion once a week if the trustees thought it desirable. But the rights of the reading public would nave to be restricted, and oilier means cf relief might be considered more efficacious. Trustee Dr.

C. T. Deane represents the syirit of progress in the board, and it was at his motion that the recent reduction of dues was adopted. lie said yesterday that Tun Call's article had been of the greatest interest. "While as yet unable to see how the plan proposed is to be exactly executed, said he, personally, am in favor of any project whereby the library may be lifted Iron its present precarious condition.

I am not in favor of sitting supinely by to await the inevitable crash that a policy of masterly inactivity entails. I would rather sell out and rent the present location from the purchaser or move downtown. If it were possible to carry out such an idea as The Call suggests I would endeavor to help it through to a successful issue. We have only about ten months In which to consider aud the Present board goes out in January. Something should be done and done at once.

"The plan under consideration requires discussion and elaboration. It has its fascinating side and will afford a good opportunity for those interested to express their views." Dr. Deane explained that something was expected from an intended amendment to the by-laws providing for quarterly meetings of subscribers. There might also be I an amendment providing for the carrying over of half the number of trustees for a second year's term to enable them to carry on the business of the library intelligently. Sarah D.

Hamlin, the well-known writer. is one of the subscribers of the library. She takes an absorbing interest in the magnificent institution, and is believed to know as much about the treasures which it contains as the librarian himself. was never a more seasonable article written." she said yesterday. "The editorial in Tub Cam, invites attention to a most worthy object, and 19 full of 6Uggestiveness.

"My own idea and 1 believe I voice the views of a large number of intelligent people, is that the library might well be made an artistic, literary ami oven social center. There are quite a number of young people's clubs in this city which might profitably make the Library building their There are the Century and Laurel Hill clubs to start in with, though these are at present satisfied with their location. Then there is the Norosis Club, newly organized and just now holding its meetings at Mrs. Irving M. Scott's house Next you might take in the various young people's social and literary clubs.

The Library building might be a general focus for the organizations. "I think we need the young people and they need the counsel aDd strength of us I older ones. We gain by their freshness, elasticity and hope and the general ex: change would be mutually beneficial. "Then the hall would be a magnificent place for art say of the Kerainic Club, an art-loan picture show or a display of the Camera Club. Only a comparatively few persons use the library asaroadlngroom, and the setting apart of one night a week by the trustees for such a purpose would be appreciated by the majority of the library subscribers.

"1 don't think the people of San Fran! Cisco properly understand the treasure i which they nave in the library. Few realize the magnitude of the choice of books i presented, the rare editions, the choice the wide scope of the reference department. The hall itself is a grand place, classic almost in its atmosphere and ideal for the reader and student. Its upper floors can be made perfectly available for artistic conversaziones and club meeting-places. In fact it ought only to require pointing out for the various literary and artistic sets to eagerly avail themselves of the chance thus offered them." Miss Hamlin's idea is of a club composed of both men and women, which shall rep' resent the esthetic inclinations ot the comi munity and make the Mercantile Library its headquarters.

She is of opinion that i an "infusion of femininity" Into the directorate would be beneficial in this connecj tion, and that all obvious difficulties could I be readily met by the exercise of tact, and the resource engendered by a purposeful I enthusiasm. DASHED TO DEATH Arthur Chadwick Meets a Terrible Fate. He Jumps From a Moving Elevator and Falls Underneath, a Distance of Five Stories. A bright boy lost his life yesterday by falling down the elevator shall of the Telephone lunlillng, 21C Bush street. Had he been careful the fatal accident would not have occurred.

The lad was Aithur Chadwick, 18 years ol age. who lived at 1042 Yaltejo street with his parents. Shortly after 0 o'clock in the morning young Chadwick ascended in the elevator whicn was then In charge of George A. Glennou. A ring was beard from the fifb floor, and when Glenhon approached the door he stopped the cage.

The person who rang the bell pad disappeared, and after looking through the grillwork Glen- non pulled back the lever to ascend still further. Chadwick was in the elevator. While Glennou was In the act of closing the iron door Chad wick pushed it back and attempted to jump out. Apparently lite boy changed his mind as to tbe floor he should get off at. Aud bis mistake was fatal.

In jumping out his head struck the upper door-sill. Glenuon grabbed at him with one baud and teversed the lever with the other. honing to save Chadwick. Just at this moment the cage was bout lour feet above lit- tin floor, and as Chadwick fell out alter striking the iron framework be swung like a pendulum and fell headlong into the shaft. He bad doubled underneath the elevator door in a manner which like the unaccountable always happens.

The boy's fall against the cellar-floor was accompanied with a crash that resounded through the halls. A doctor was called Id from the Occidental Hotel, but be saw that young Chadwick was beyond human aid. Chadwick died ten minutes later and the Coroner look charge of ids remains. The dead boy had been employed as an office boy in the telephone company's supply department and was well liked by the clerks and others In the office, uleuiion, who had charge of the elevator, has been running the machine for more titan a year. He Is 18 years of age and careful as well as competent to manage the machine.

A singular fact was noticed in connection with the occurrence. Chadwick fell five stories without any break to his terrible fall. When his body was received at the Morgue there was absolutely not Plug to suggest a violent death, only a lew bruises showing on the skin. A post-mortem examination, however, showed that bis lungs and other vital organs were actually burst open as it torn asunder. The autopsy gave the cause of death as Internal injuries.

TUESDAY. DECEMBER 12, 1893. SHUT THEM OUT. Boston Wins in a Close Game. Pitcher Parrott's Wheels Were All Right, but the Colonels Failed to Hit Nichols.

It was a great game yesterday and Boston won. Notwithstanding the fact thai Tom Parrott's wheels worked to perfection, and the machinery which be is supposed to carry conceal, under his cap moved along as quietly as a highbinder on the warpath, still the fact must go down in history that the Colonels were shut out. Perhaps It may not have occurred to the Champions, and doubtless a simple mention of the' tact will be sufficient, but they are getting so In the habit ot winning every gam. tbat It Is really becoming discourteous on their part, all of which is unbecoming In an aggregation haillog from tbe center of tbe universe. About 300 people shivered In the grand stand while the young men strove to get a man across the plate, but the neatest that most of them go' was the starting point, and the hopes of -lie (clouds were badly frostbitten, while tiicy chafed their fingers to keep them warm.

Ihe Oakland team was on the bills to be strengthened by the substituting of Irwin for at second, but It was uot the Colels'day. with all their additional strength. Irwin formerly played with the California League, until That organisation struck a "stringene)" in August, when be went East aud tintshed the season wiih Chicago. Parrot! played a good game in every way. Aside from holding the Champions down to three lilts he had five putouts to his credit, and be fielded everything in sight.

In the fifth Long balled a high foul, which looked as If it would stilke the edge of the grand stand in coming down, but the webtooted athlete forstalled any such possibility by jumping up to meet the ball and pulling It in. and Incidentally leaping clear over Kid- Spier, who was waiting lor it on the bounce. The Colonels went out one, two, three. In the first, but in their bail Boston scored a run. Hoy bailed to Brown, but fan oti covered first and the mute was out.

Long sent a single to left and took second on a passed ball. Duffy went out and McCarty hatted to Van Haltrtn, who let the ball tbiough, and Long scored. Buckley was given a base and Davis reined the side at first. In the fourth, after Beckley and Davis were both out on flies. Nash lined out a swift one Io left held fence, but quick work by Treadway gave him only two bases 011 what looked a home tun hit.

Kittridge followed with a single ana Nash scored. hat Is the story so far as run getting Is concerned. In the fifth Treadway came to bat and Long at short said something about a twobagger, which Treadway at once responded to by sending one down past thud. He was advanced by Parrott's fly out. but died at third when Irwin fouled to Kllttidge.

But all the excitement in the game was centered in the Colonels' half of the sixth. Speer was fust at bat and lined out a clean slugle to center. Hernon walled it out, sending Speer to second, limes sent an easy one down between tiist and the pitcher's box, which Buckley fielded, but threw wild to second. Nine men In the Boston team at once made a big kick, claiming that Iliues had bunted, but McDouald shook his bead and the bases were full with nobody out. Then comes the sorrowful part of the story.

Van Haltten louied out to Nash, and Denny batted to Nichols, who threw to Kittridge, calcium: Bpeei at the Mate, and then doubled on Denuy at lust and all was over. The Colonels didn't get another chance to score. The details of the game aie as follows: Bostons. ah. K.

It Will Largely Aid to Pay the Temple Debt. The Beth Israel bazaar, which was open a week ago yesterday in Armory Hall, proved so great a success that It has been reaping on from day to day like Pattl's farewell concert. Last night, however, was positively the last performance. Today will see all the pretty booths demolished and the few good that iemain Unsold will be lemoved from Armory Hall. Nearly every salable, however, was disposed of last night.

Mrs. Levy's booth ceased to exist some days ago. as all Iter wares had been sold; the flower booth had also disappeared, and the other stalls had a forlorn and empty appearance last evening. This fact, however, did not distress me ladles. On the contrary, ihey rejoiced over the amount of money that the good sales had brought Into the treasury.

Tne exact amount realized by the bazaar will not be known lor some days. It was stated on Saturday last that about $5000 would probably be area. Mrs. Levy said last night to a Call reporter: "The receipts from the different booths have not yet come in. I can say positively, however, that ihe ladies are thoroughly satisfied with the results of the whole affair.

Of course wj never expected to pay off the entire church debt of that would have been too much to expect from one bazaar. We are sine, however, that we shall clear off a considerable part or It." The voting contest for the most popular lady and the most popular gentleman which had excited so much Interest closed last night. Miss Sarah Jacobs was at the head of the ladies' poll and Levy secured the greatest number of votes as the gentleman most in favor. The rabbi was certainly earning his popularity by honest bard work last night, as mounted on a stool he cried: "Ten cents for ten chances in the parlor set; your last chance, ladies and gentlemen; a cent a ticket." And people who bad not the least Intention of Investing In the uncertain chance of a raffle were aroused by ltabbi Levy's tireless efforts to dispose of the few articles remaining to be ailed lor and bought tickets. All of the participants were tired out with the week's hard wori; when the hour for closing lie bazaar arrived, but there was not one who did not return home with the happy consciousness thai success bad crowned the efforts of the ladles of Israel Synagogue.

STATE FRUIT EXCHANGE. A Meeting Called to Consider Its Establishment. A call has been Issued for a mass-meeting of fruit-growers at Pioneer Hall at 10 a. M. on Friday.

December 29. The object Is to consider the question of establishing a State fruit exchange for tbe marketing of California fruits, raisins, nuts, ratifying, should the convention so decide, ibe steps already taken to that end under the auspices of the State Horticultural Society and choosing a board of representative fruit-growers to serve as directors for tbe hist year. To all persons purchasing tickets from points on ihe lines of the Southern Pacific Company and the Sao Fraucisco and North Pacific Kaliroad, and obtaining from their ticket agent a rec-ipt for the money so paid, the companies named, provided at least fifty attend the convention, will sell return tickets at one-third the regular fare upon presentation' of the receipt countersigned by the secretary of tbe convention. Such receipts must be presented at the Southern Pacific Company's ticket oflice not later than Monday, January 1, the tickets -old ibeieou will be good for forty-eight hours thereafter. The San Francisco and North Pacific Railroad will sell the reduced return ticket up to and including Tuesday, January 2.

It will be seen that this arrangement permits all to remain to the opening of the Midwinter Fair and reach home during the life of their ticket. Bound for Mexico.

Stops will be made at points or Interest between bere and Xl Paso, and the tourists will also visit Old Mexico and points of Interest on the Mexican Central Itallroad. It is possible that two weeks will be spent In the laud of tne Montezumas.

HOW MRS. GRIFFES DIED. Carroll Cook's Remarkable Theory for the Defense. Attorney Carroll Cook occupied the whole of yesterday's session in Wallace's court with a powerful and elaborate address for the defense of Martin O'Neii, charged with the murder of Mrs Kate (J rifles. Mr.

Cook opened by calling tbe attention of the court to the remaruable lapse of memory that O'Neii was well known to be always afflicted with when under the influence ot Intoxicating liquors. He asked the jury to believe that O'Neii had spoken nothing but the tiutb when he swore that his memory on the fateful night was a blank, and that after his Kurd glass of whisky he remembered nothlnir more until he found himself In the old City Prison, charged with the crime of murder. lieu cases of circumstantial evidence were gone luto by way of a caution to the Jury to weigh such evidence carefully. There were so many cases of persons being convicted of crimes they never committed that if the jury bad any shadow of a doubt In their minds as to the guilt of the prisoner tbey must under their oaths as jurors acquit him. Mr.

Cook then presented his theory of the mysterious circumstances surrounding Mrs. Grilles' death. He showed by tbe gai meuts produced In court that Mi-. Grilles must have risen from bed on the evening lv question, and be suggested that she bad come over to San Francisco to consult a certain female doctor, who. by the way, is the mother of Mrs.

Grilles' friend and companion, Mrs. Bates. She was attacked with sickness on the boar, and only too gladly accepted O'Neil's odor of some stimulating refreshment While partaking of this refreshment lv the Grizzly Bear saloon, the secoud attack came ou, from which she died. The police was somewhat sarcastic illy referred to by Mr. Cook, after which he dwelt for some time on the question of motive.

He had not concluded wheu the court rose uutll this morning. CALVINISTS MEET. San Francisco Presbytery in Session. It Is Asked to Take Charge of the Mission Work to the Resident Italians. The quarterly session of the San Francisco Presbytery opened last night In Calvary Church, Bey.
