As the revenue law enforces the payment of all taxes and as-
sessments on real estate at the office, I have given special atten-
tion to the collection of personal property taxes. I find for the
present fiscal year a smaller percentage of delinquents than
usual. Bearing in mind that from this delinquency is to be de-
ducted the long list of arbitrary assessments, taxes on shipping
payable elsewhere, estates in probate, failures, fires and prop-
erty not to be found, very little that is really collectable will
find its way to the special counsel having the matter in hand.
Respectfully,
CHAS. TILLSON,
Tax Collector.

CITY LITIGATION. 183
STEEET ASSESSMENT SUITS.
There are now pending in the Superior Court of this city and county 889
suits on street assessments. These actions are brought in the name of the
"People of the City and County of San Francisco," under the Acts of April
4, 1870, and April 1, 1872. The amounts, when collected, are paid into the
City and County Treasury for the contractors.
The records of this office show that in nearly all of these cases second
suits have been instituted under the Act of March 19, 1874, known as the
"Curative Act."
Since the date of last report judgment has been rendered in some 73 suits,
and, whether or not it may be the duty of this office, under the law, to take
these cases on appeal to the Supreme Court of this State, is a question yet to
be decided.
Since date of last report the amount claimed under one assessment has
been paid into the City and County Treasury, and the judgment satisfied.
In order to facilitate the trial of these cases, most of which have been long
pending, it was decided by the Presiding Judge of the Superior Court that
each case, when reached upon the several calendars, should be at once
transferred to Department No. 10, at the new City Hall, and whenever any
of these cases are placed upon the calendar this office is prepared and ready
to try them. Respectfully submitted,
JOHN LUTTEELL MUEPHY,
Attorney and Counselor for the City and County of San Francisco.

REPORT
OP
THE CHIEF ENGINEER
OF THE
San Francisco Paid Fire Department.
To the Honorable the Board of Fire Commissioners
of the City and County of San Francisco:
GENTLEMEN I have the honor to present to you this the fourteenth an-
nual report of the San Francisco Paid Fire Department for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1880.
The report contains a statement of the condition and workings of the De-
partment; also, a complete roll of the companies in the Department, with
the property under their charge, including engines, hose-reels, hook-and-
ladder trucks, and appurtenances, material and property belonging to the
Department contained in the Corporation Yard, the number and location of
the fire hydrants in the different portions of the city, a list of the number,
location and capacity of the cisterns, the number of alarms responded to by
each company, number of times in service and time at work at fires.
HOSE.
There have been purchased for the use of the Department during the year
eight thousand feet of new hose. In the report will be found a statement of
the quantity and location of all of the hose in the Department available for
fire purposes. Our supply of hose is ample and in excellent order.
CISTEENS.
In the report will be found a statement of the number, location and -capac-
ity of cisterns from which the Department can, in case of necessity, obtain a
supply of water.
196 CHIEF ENGINEER'S REPORT.
HYDBANTS.
Herewith will be found a report of the number and location of the hy-
drants. There are thirteen hundred and fifty-two (1,352) fire hydrants
located in different portions of the city, of which thirteen hundred and nine
(1,309) are the property of the city and forty-three (43) are owned by pri-
vate parties. The hydrants that are the property of the city are kept in
repair and paid for out of the running expenses of the Department.
DEPAETMENT APPARATUS.
The apparatus of the department is in first class order, having been thor-
oughly overhauled and repaired during the year.
I would recommend the sale of the old Leverich Belief Truck and the
purchase of a new one with all new inventions and improvements for use of
Truck Company No. 4. I would also recommend the purchase of a new third
class Amoskeag engine for use in the upper portion of the city. Engine Com-
panies 3, 5 and 8 are all third class engines, and we have no relief engine of
the size to be used in case of necessity. I would also recommend the forma-
tion and location of a hose company in the vicinity of Mission, Valencia and
Twenty-sixth streets, hose carriage to be four-wheeled and capable of carry-
ing 1,000 feet of hose. That portion of the city requires some protection, as
the nearest company is No. 7 Engine, located on Sixteenth street.
DEPAETMENT HOUSES.
The houses of the Department are all in excellent state of repair. I would
urgently recommend the exchange of the lot of Engine Company No. 11, lo-
cated on Fourteenth avenue, South San Francisco, for one situated on Rail-
road avenue, and the erection of a suitable house on the same for the use of
the company, as the present one is unfitted for use on account of the street
not being graded, thereby rendering it difficult for liie company to respond
promptly to alarms of fire.
STREET LAMPS.
I would recommend that the upper- part of street lamps in the immediate
vicinity of fire alarm boxes be fitted with red glass having ground thereon
the letters "F. A.," and that the lamps be kept burning during the entire
night, so that any person having a key may, upon discovery of a fire, be im-
mediately apprised by means of this signal of the locality of a fire alarm box.
I would also recommend that for the use of firemen the upper part of street
lamps nearest to hydrants be fitted up with plain blue glass, so that firemen in
going to a fire may at a glance determine the location of hydrants.
FIEE BOAT.
Since' my last report the tug-boat Governor Irwin, used as a fire-boat when
occasion required, was withdrawn from the service by the State Board of
Harbor Commissioners. Subsequently a serious fire occurring among the
REMARKS. 197
shipping at the Pacific Mail Dock demonstrated the necessity of a fire-boat
for the protection of shipping from fire. Through the exertions of the Board
of Underwriters and others, they succeeded, through the kindness of the
Board of Harbor Commissioners, in again placing the tug Governor Irwin at
the service of the Department. A company was organized by authority of
the honorable Board of Supervisors which has been in service since the 1st
of May and responds promptly to all alarms on the water front. I would
strongly urge upon you the necessity of applying to the proper authorities
for authority to build a complete fire-boat, with all modern improvements
and with machinery for generating carbonic acid gas for the extinguishing of
fires on shipboard, as the use of water as a means of extinguishing fires
proves wholly inadequate, for it is a well-known fact that a fire afloat, unless
promptly overcome, is almost certain to result in large loss of property. The
use of chemicals on shipboard for extinguishment of fires has proved very
successful isi New Orleans and elsewhere, and it has been fully demonstrated
that by battening down of hatches tightly and a free use of carbonic acid gas
forced in the holds of vessels on fire has proved a great success in every case
where applied, and is not injurious to cargo.
BEMARKS.
There is just cause -for congratulation at our exemption from large con-
flagrations during the past year. When we consider the great number of
frame buildings throughout the city, it is more than remarkable that we have
not met with more serious losses by fire.
The fire law is practically inoperative. It is violated daily with impunity,
and although we have endeavored to enforce the penalty, we have been unsuc-
cessful through lax administration of the law by the officers thereof, fires
constantly occurring through carelessness in depositing ashes in wooden bar-
rels or alongside buildings. Neglect in not cleaning chimneys is the cause
of many alarms, and a consequent loss to the city in the wear of apparatus.
There having been considerable controversy the past year in relation to the
reduction of the salaries and expenses of the Department, I deem it proper
now to enter my protest against such action, and I think it would be well
that the public should be informed of the reasons why any proposed reduc-
tion would be unwise and impolitic. The time of our permanent men is en-
tirely occupied day and night, their absence from their posts on any ac-
count being prohibited, except upon the employment of substitutes, whose
wages have to be paid by them. The extramen, who have to leave their em-
ployment at a moment's notice, who literally have to face death and injuries
in a far greater ratio than the soldier, certainly receive too moderate a
compensation to admit of any serious argument. The advantages of disci-
pline and experience, the danger and troubles incident to too frequent
changes and ignorance of their duty are too important to be overlooked, and
198 CHIEF ENGINEER'S REPORT.
I feel assured that it would endanger the efficiency of the Department, should
a reduction of salaries be enforced.
In the matter of economy and a reduction of the expenses of the Depart-
ment, I feel justified in challenging comparison with any other branch of the
State or city government. Economy is defined as getting the full value of
your money, and if there are any disbursements made for materials and sup-
plies that this Department did not get the worth of, you would certainly be
cognizant of it. Kegarding the necessity of those expenditures, you and the
honorable Board of Supervisors have been the judges. That nothing has
been ordered for the use of the Department that was unnecessary, and that
nothing has been paid for beyond its value are facts that the records and
your personal knowledge will readily sustain; yet I regret to observe that
there is an evident disposition to curtail and reduce our appropriation, and
in a measure depriving you of the credit of promoting efficiency and economy
in the interests of the Department.
I wish to tender my thanks to the honorable the Mayor, the Board of
Supervisors and the Fire Department Committee of the Board of Supervisors
for their cordial support and prompt response to all requests made to them
to provide for the Department, to which hearty co-operation is due in a great
measure the success attending the efforts of the Department during the year.
To Chief Crowley and the Police Department, who have during the year
rendered such service as has been required of them in. the most satisfactory
manner, and it is gratifying to know that the most friendly relations exist
between the two departments. To Captain White, of the Fire Patrol, and
this company, for the very great aid rendered the Department on many occa-
sions. To Superintendent Curran and his assistants for the efficiency dis-
played by them in their department. To Mr. Lohse, of the Spring Valley
Water Works, for the prompt and efficient manner in which the water pipes
and hydrants have been attended to during the year.
I wish to compliment the officers and members of the Department for- the
promptness with which they have responded to all alarms during the year
and the efficient manner in which they have labored in subduing fires, and I
can say that the department is fully equal to any emergency likely to arise.
In conclusion, allow me to return thanks to your honorable Board for your
untiring efforts to maintain discipline and efficiency in the Department, and
aid me in the discharge of my duties a credit to your management in the
interest of the city and taxpayers.
All of which is respectfully submitted,

Chief Engineer San Francisco Fire Department.

248 FIRE ALARM TELEGRAPH.
We are now operating one hundred and twenty miles of wire. One hun-
dred miles of this is run on poles, the balance on houses.
During the past year the following extensions and improvements have
been made:
We have put up twelve miles of No. 9 galvanized wire. Six miles of
this was used in the construction of a new signal circuit, the balance in gen-
eral repairs. The new signal circuit was run through the Western addition
and enabled me to not only locate new boxes but also to provide that section
of the City with two signal circuits, and to divide up the boxes so as to give
it the greatest protection possible at present.
Twelve Automatic Boxes were placed in circuit, two replacing Crank
Boxes removed from service and the balance being new boxes, as follows, and
located as per official list: 178, 251, 253, 291, 312, 314, 321, 324, 325, 226 = 10.
A line was run from this office to that of Chief Engineer Scannell and the
Fire Commissioners, and connected with a small gong there and so arranged
that immediately upon the first tap of an alarm being received at this office,
a switch is turned by the operator, which connects this line with the line on
which the alarm is coming and enables the Chief Engineer to receive the
alarm a few seconds before the regular alarm is struck. This is designated
as a Tapper line and has given satisfaction.
As a number of companies rendezvous at the corner of Kearny and Mar-
ket streets, at every alarm, where they wait for a second alarm, and it
often being difficult to hear a bell on account of noise, it was deemed advis-
able to place a gong in the neighborhood upon which the companies could
always depend; arrangements were therefore made and a fifteen-inch Engine
House Gong was placed in the establishment of Messrs. Adam and Kibbe on
the corner of these streets, which is accessible to the Department at all hours
of the day or night.
The working of our lines is frequently interrupted by telephone and private
wires, and to protect them from such interruption as much as possible I have
concluded to use in the most exposed places through the business part of the
city (where most of the interruptions occur), No. 10 galvanized line wire,
insulated in such a manner as to prevent interference by outside lines and
this in connection with the use of cornice brackets, i.e., iron brackets with an
insulator on the upright portion and attached to the corners of the cornices,
will place our lines in as safe a position as is possible where they are run
over houses.
We have also had some trouble caused by the wooden pins breaking and
letting our wires down in the streets where the lines turn corners and pass
from one street to another at right angles, and to obviate this I have devised
an iron pin 8 inches long by % diameter; one end of this is placed in a
mould and a lead head with screw attached to fit insulator glass is moulded
on to it; this I found to be a success and since commencing to use them have
never found one to give way.
SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT. 249
No additions were made to the local line at South San Francisco, but the
line was re-run with new wire, the necessity for which became apparent upon
taking down the old wire, some portions of which were' found to be in very
bad condition, caused by the action of the salt water on the marshes over
which the line ran.
The gong of Engine No. 11 which is on this line was overhauled, cleaned,
and the magnets rewound, which removed considerable resistance and causes
the line to work better.
In my last report I spoke of some improvements which I contemplated
placing in the Automatic Boxes; these improvements I have placed in most
of these boxes and it has enabled me to make a great reduction in the bat-
tery on these lines ; in some cases it amounts to a reduction of fifty and
sixty per cent.
Among the additions to the instruments in the office has been a combined
Test Switch Board, to which all the wires are brought, where they are so ar-
ranged that a number of necessary tests can be made rapidly and with accur-
acy.
To provide for additional signal circuits a black walnut table has been
placed across the front of the office, and on this are placed improved regis-
ters. The old registers are five pen, and they and the relays used in connec-
tion with them possess a number of serious defects which I have overcome
with the new ones; these have a single pen and each has two main line relays
and two local alarm bells, together with necessary switches and other safe-
guards, which render it impossible for them to get out of order.
Among other improvements contemplated is that of removing the wires
on Kearny, Market and Third streets, which are run over houses, and
placing them on a line of 30 and -iO-foot poles, to be set on Dupout, Mar-
ket and Third. At present they are greatly troubled by outside wires, and are
inaccessible at night; to place them on these poles will put them where we
can always get at them and they will be less likely to be interfered with.

REMARKS. 253
The attention of your Honorable Body is again respectfully called to the
urgent necessity of discarding the old Crank Box, and substituting the Auto-
matic. Improper turning at boxes from which the signal is given by the
crank is still the rule, and a perfect signal the exception. Although the at-
tention of key-holders has been called to this defect repeatedly, both by
printed and personal explanation, it is noticeable to as great an extent as
ever, and there is but little hope of any improvement in this respect until
the signaling apparatus of the boxes is changed. Nothing but long experi-
ence and a thorough familiarity with the instruments and boxes, which have
taught the operators the various shapes into which a signal can be tortured,
has in many instances prevented the giving of a wrong alarm and a conse-
quent sending of the Fire Department to a different locality from where the
fire was located. Something is needed that shall place it beyond the power
of an over-excited or over-cautious party to give an imperfect signal. Our
own experience, and that of every city that has used crank boxes, shows con-
clusively that they are unreliable and should be discarded . The Automatic
Fire Alarm Box needs only to be seen to convince any one of their great su-
periority over the cranks. One pull at a hook sets in motion train work that
gives the signal with unerring accuracy, and it seems to me a necessity that
all our old crank boxes should be replaced by them, for where so much is at
stake no argument is needed in favor of employing the very best means that
can be obtained to accomplish the desired end, viz., an instantaneous and
definite fire signal. If the Fire Alarm Telegraph is worth anything to the
Fire Department, it should be pushed to its utmost efficiency^ We have in
use at present 82 Crank Boxes, and I cannot too strongly urge their retire-
ment from service and the substitution of the Automatic Box at as early a
date as possible.
During the past year frequent and serious interruptions have been caused
by the numerous telephone and private wires throughout the city. Boxes
have been cut out, and in some instances our wires have been cut and their
usefulness destroyed for the time being, as during such period no alarm could
be received or transmitted to the Fire Department, and unless some law is
passed which will be so severe as to dett-r the perpetrators of these acts, it
will some day result in a serious conflagration.
It sometimes happens that persons desiring to use a Fire Alarm Box at
night are unable to immediately find one, owing to their ignorance of the lo-
cation of the boxes. For this reason I would suggest that the upper part of
the street lamp on each corner that has a box be fitted with red glass, which
will be visible for several blocks in every direction, and will always be a
prominent indication of the location of a box.
In conclusion, I wish to tender my thanks to his Honor the Mayor, the
Board of Supervisors, Fire Department Committee of the Board of Super-
254 FIRE ALARM TELEGRAPH.
visors, the Board of Fire Commissioners, Chief Engineer Scannell and his
assistants, the Board of Underwriters, and Captain White, of the Fire Pa-
trol, for their kindness and courtesy to this Department; and I also take
pleasure in returning my thanks to the employees of this office for their
cheerful co-operation and valuable assistance in promoting the efficiency and
reliability of this Department.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
JOHN CURRAN,
Superintendent Fire Alarm and Police Telegraph.
REPORT

SUPERINTENDED OF PUBLIC STREETS
HIGHWAYS AND SQUARES.
OFFICE OF THE SUPERINTENDENT OF )
PUBLIC STREETS AND HIGHWAYS, j
SAN FRANCISCO, July 19, 1880.
To the Honorable the Board of Supervisors
of the City and County of San Francisco:
GENTLEMEN Herewith I have the honor of transmitting my
annual report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1880.
This Department during my administration has not deviated
from a strict adherence to the law limiting its expenditures, bet-
ter known as the " McCoppin one-twelfth Act."
No work has been done on unaccepted streets, which Section
19 of Article 4 of the Constittionn effectually estops, the Supreme
Court, in the case of McDonald vs. Patterson, having decided
said section to be mandatory, requiring no legislation to put it
in force.
There are twenty-seven miles of county roads, including many
bridges and culverts, to be kept in repair, necessitating the con-
tinual employment of a considerable force under the constant
256 REPORT OF SUPERINTENDENT OF STREETS.
supervision of a deputy; they are now in good condition, but the
limited amount of five hundred dollars per month, set apart for
that purpose, is scarcely adequate to keep them so, especially in
inclement seasons of the year.
Your attention is respectfully called to the condition of the
sewer on Eighteenth street; the old sewer, composed of wood,
having almost entirely rotted out, it is impossible to maintain the
street in proper repair; in many places the surface is only held
by the arch of the macadam. I would therefore earnestly recom-
mend that a new sewer be constructed before the rainy season
sets in.
I would also call attention to the dilapidated condition of the
city front, there being no authority or funds under my control
to enable me to remedy the evil.
I would respectfully recommend to your Honorable Board the
purchase of a steam roller. No pavement of any description will
endure for any length of time without a solid foundation, and I
deem it to be true economy for the city to own a machine so
constantly necessary.
Eespectfully, your obedient servant,
WM. PATTERSON,
Superintendent of Public Streets, Highways and Squares.

OF THE CHIEF OF POLICE.
OFFICE OF THE CHIEF OF POLICE, ^
San Francisco, July 1, 1880. j
To the Honorable the Board of Supervisors
of the City and County of San Francisco :
GENTLEMEN In compliance with Kesolution No . 14,765 (new
series), of your Honorable Board, I submit herewith the annual
report of the Police Department for the year ending June 30,
1880.
Schedule "A" exhibits the number and tabulated statements
of the arrests made by the police during the year.
Schedule "B" shows the number of arrests by, and strength
of the police force for eighteen years preceding June 30, 1880.
Schedule "C" cash received during the year from Sheriffs of
other counties, masters of vessels and others for keeping of pris-
oners in the city prison.
Schedule "D" exhibits the value of property reported as lost
or stolen during the year, and amount recovered by the police.
Schedule "E" exhibits the number of witnesses subpoenaed
for the several Courts of Criminal jurisdiction for the year end-
ing June 30, 1880.
Schedule "F" Unclaimed property or money in possession of
the Chief of Police to June 30, 1880.
Schedule "G-" exhibits the number of police stations and
their location.
Schedule "H" Comparative statement of population, police
force, number of arrests, average number of arrests to each officer,
and ratio of population to police force.
Schedule "I" Summary of action taken by the Board of
Police Commissioners in the supervision of retail liquor dealers'
licenses from January 1, 1880, to June 30, 1880.
280 CHIEF OF POLICE'S REPORT.
POLICE STATIONS.
The growth of the city and increase of population has required
the establishment of branch police stations in several locations,
as will appear by schedule " G."
These stations are connected by telephone with the central
office, and, if necessary, the officers there detailed can be con-
centrated more speedily than under the former system.
Some of these stations are inconveniently situated, and are not
well adapted to the requirements of the service, and, in view of
the fact that the want of these facilities will be continuous until
supplied, I would urge that it would be a useful and economic
measure for the city to purchase suitable lots, and thereon build
police stations fully adapted to our wants.
The experience of other cities shows the utility of having per-
manent branch police stations owned by the city.
LIQUOR LICENSES.
The act to equalize and facilitate the collection of licenses in
the city and county of San Francisco, approved March 23, 1878,
which gives the Police Commissioners power to supervise (to a
limited extent) the issue of retail liquor dealers' licenses, has pro-
duced satisfactory results.
Under it a considerable sum of delinquent license has been
collected, and many places have been closed which should not
have been allowed to continue business if there had previously
been any law to reach them .
In proportion as the Police Commissioners have laid on their
restraining hand, resistance has developed to the enforcement of
the law, and suits have been brought to overthrow their au-
thor ii,y.
These suits have been decided adversely to the plaintiff, and
thereis.no reason to believe that any other conclusion can be
reached in the proceedings which are still pending.
The action of the Board on this subject is shown in schedule
K T
All of which is respectfully submitted.

EXHIBIT "N."
In the preceding pages I have given tables showing more fully the details
of our prison matters than is required by law or would be of interest to the
ordinary reader; but, as at the present day the subject of the investigation
of the causes of criminal life, and the treatment of the criminal, and the
criminally inclined classes is absorbing the attention of many of the most
intelligent minds of our country, especially such as are given to the study of
social science, and to those whose labors are given to works of humanity, I
have tabulated for their examination and use such facts as I deemed useful
to them and accessible to me.
An examination of the books of the preceding administration, and a com-
parison, shows about the same statistical facts in one year as in another, so
it may be accepted that our prisoners come from the same sources, are
from the same class of people, and have been guilty of about the same
offenses, numerically, in one year as another.
Our numbers may be greater or less, as influenced by many causes.
City prisons are best filled (if numbers are an indication) when times are
good, when money is easy to get, and when the lower classes do not have to
work hard to make a living, when from the ease with which they make
money they indulge in unreasonable excesses and get into trouble.
Laxity of police vigilance tends largely to a reduction of the number com-
mitted, and, if the past is any criterion, our prisons are crowded in the win-
ter months and empty, or nearly so, in the summer.
I would call the attention of your Honorable Board to the class of prison-
ers sent to us known as "repeaters." I think it is simply nonsensical to
send that class of familiar faces to- the police and frequenters to courts of
justice, for such a short period as three months. They should be treated
as chronic cases, and receive a longer term of imprisonment. It takes the
time of the police officer, of the courts, and of your prison officials, which
should be given to better work, and it costs the tax-payers too much to be a
matter of indifference. Another class to which I wonld call your attention
those who properly belong to alms-houses and asylums. It is a pity they are
sent to us. No matter through what cause they may have lost their health
or reason, the prison is not the place for them, and surely it is not the place
for idiots. It is much easier, however, to write of the faults of any system
than to suggest remedies for their ills; but the time to cure disease, moral or
physical, is in its inception or in its earliest stages, and not after its having
taken deep root.
The present congregate prison system, at best, is extremely faulty, whether
for juyeuiles or adults; and if they must be associated together, the less inter-
course the better, and the more rigid the discipline the better, also.
312 REPORT OF THE
In this connection, the jails of our city are demoralizing to an alarming
extent, and our state prisons are EO better. In many of them prisoners are
herded like "cattle," the good and the bad indiscriminately placed together,
and all the vileness of the worst is, or may be, communicated to the others.
Prisoners should be held in such restraint that neither their actions nor
language could shock the moral sensibilities of their more decent fellows.
During the past year we have made valuable improvements in and about
the building.
The lawns are much improved, and the vegetable garden is producing an
abundance of fine, fresh vegetables to supply the officers' tables.
We have also made many improvements inside the prison, such as putting
new floors in the lower cells, plumbing, painting, etc., etc., all of which has
been done by prison labor, and would have cost the city hundreds of dollars
to have hired it done.
The discipline, order and cleanliness of the institution have been such as
to merit the approval of your Honorable Board.
The sanitary condition has been faultless, the sick have been carefully
cared for, and but few complaints have been made to me by any prisoner of
any supposed grievance during my administration as Superintendent. And
I believe that the expense of management has been economical, and the re-
sults, so far as pecuniary interest is concerned, have been all that could be
reasonably desired, as the following comparison with the preceding year will
clearly show.
The total expense of running the institution last year (1878-79) was, as
per Auditor's books, sixty-two thousand one hundred and sixteen dollars
and seventy-five cents. Add debts contracted (paid this year) , two thousand
eight hundred and forty-four dollars and sixty-four cents, and it makes a
total of sixty-four thousand nine hundred and fifty-eight dollars and thirty-
nine cents,
The total expenses this year, deducting the amount of two thousand eight
hundred and forty-four dollars and sixty-four cents, paid for bills contracted
and not audited last year, is fifty thousand eight hundred and twenty-nine
dollars and thirteen cents. Deducting the amount of thirty-six hundred ddl-
lars from the expenses last year, for the amount of the decrease in the salar-
ies of officers, leaves a net expense of sixty-one thousand three hundred and
fifty-eight dollars and thirty-nine cents, while the net amount of expense for
the fiscal year 1879-80 is fifty thousand eight hundred and twenty-nine dol-
lars and thirteen cents, making a clear saving this year over the last of ten
thousand five hundred and twenty-nine dollars and twenty-six cents . And
the records will show more prisoners received this year than last.
The per capita this year, including all expenses, has been thirty-six and
one-fourth cents. The per capita for 1878-79 was, after deducting thirty-six
hundred dollars (difference in salaries), forty-eight and one-half cents, and
you will readily perceive that the per capita will be larger as the prisoners
decrease, as the salaries do not decrease with the prisoners.
HOUSE OF CORRECTION. 313
Therefore I claim that the present Board has made a good showing in this
institution, and I would here take the opportunity to thank the members of
your Honorable Board for many valuable suggestions and their hearty
co-operation in the management of this institution.
I would also thank Supervisor Schottler for the many visits he has paid
the prison, and for the uniform kindness he has manifested toward me, and
for the zealous interest he has shown in aiding me to conduct the prison in
a creditable manner, reflecting great credit upon himself as chairman of the
House of Correction Committee, as well as to the balance of the Board and
Committee.
I wish also to thank Dr. Charles Blach, City and County Physician, for
promptness at all hours of the day or night, when called to this place, and
congratulate him upon his success in treating the inmates of this institution,
having only two deaths within the past year, and both cases being men over
sixty-four years of age, and who died from the effects of chronic alcoholism.
I would also thank the Directors of the Odd Fellows' and Mercantile-
Library Associations for the donation of valuable miscellaneous reading
matter, and other friends who have assisted in establishing a library at the
House of Correction, now consisting of five hundred and seventy-one volumes.
I deem a well-selected library among the most important additions to any
public institution that could be made, and ours is highly appreciated by both,
officers and prisoners.
My thanks are also due to my subordinate officers for the faithful manner
in which they have performed their duties, and I am happy to report no-
escapes during my administration, owing to the efficiency of my officers, and,,
with but few exceptions (which I trust will soon be overcome), the discipline
of the institution is highly satisfactory to me.
Eeligious services have been held at this place every Sabbath, with but
one or two exceptions, the Protestants holding service one Sabbath and the
Catholics the other, thus alternating with each other.
Mr. Woodworth, Secretary of the Prison Commission, has my sincere
thanks for the good work he has done in bringing reading matter and preach-
ing to the inmates.
In fact, he is to be thanked for starting the services at this place, and he-
has them.
To your Honorable Body I am indebted for your continued confidence in
my administration, as evidenced by your kindness at all times to me, and by
your ready adoption of such suggestions as from time to time I have made.
Thanking you, gentlemen, I hope I shall be deemed worthy of your future
confidence- Very respectfully,
A. W. PEEVOST,
Superintendent.
INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL REPORT.
SAN FKANCISCO, JULY 1, 1880.
To the Honorable the Board of Supervisors
of the City and County of San Francisco:
GENTLEMEN In accordance with resolution No. 14,765 (New
Series), I herewith present my annual report as Superintendent
of the City and County Industrial School, for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1880.
Of the inmates I can speak very favorably. Their conduct and
morals have been as good as could be expected from the class
we have to deal with, a majority of whom have been taken from
the lowest class of society. Brought up in ignorance and vice,
and allowed to have their own way in everything, it is but natural
that they should eventually find their way "out to the school."
I am satisfied from my investigation that in four-fifths of the
oases the parents are to blame for their children being in this in-
stitution. "While there are some of the boys that can be re-
formed, there are others who will eventually bring up in the
State Prison.
This report will show a smaller number present in the institu-
tion than last year. I can only account for the falling off in
numbers by the granting of indefinite leave of absence to inmates
who have only been in the institution a short time . It is almost
always the case that a boy who leaves on probation is returned to
the school in a short time, 011 a new charge. I would recom-
mend that no boy be released until he has served at least six
months in the institution, and then only on the recommendation
INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL. 315
of the Superintendent, as he, having constant watch over him, is
able to see any reform that may have taken place during his stay
in the institution, and would be able to judge whether the public
would be benefited by the release.
Schedule "A" will show the number of boys committed, cause
of commitment, by whom committed, term, age, etc.
Schedule "B" will show the number. of girls committed, cause
of commitment, by whom committed, term, age, etc.
Schedule "C" will show how the inmates have been received
and discharged.
Following is the amount of work performed in the different
departments and amount of material on hand :
SHOE SHOP.
There has been employed in the Shoe Shop during the year an average of
ten boys five days in each week. The amount of work done by them has
been as follows :
Number of pairs of shoes made 486
Number of pairs of shoes repaired 976
Number of pairs of shoes distributed 434
Number of pairs of shoes on hand . , . < 57
Number of pairs of women's slippers on hand 173
Number of pairs of balmorals 22
TAILOR SHOP.
The tailor shop has been kept busy all the year making and repairing
clothes. An average of ten boys have been kept in this department five days
in each week. The work performed by them, and the articles on hand, are as
follows':
Number of jackets made 121
Number of pants made 267
Number of caps made 202
Number of jackets repaired . . . 1,752

Number of pieces ironed % 24,032
Average number of pieces washed per mouth 4,363
Average number of pieces ironed per month 2,003%
SEWING ROOM.

In the kitchen there are eight boys employed all day. The
balance of the inmates are distributed around in the halls, dor-
mitories, officers' rooms, school rooms, hospitals, etc. Every
boy in the institution is detailed to some kind of work, none are
idle.
The institution, being nearly twenty-one years old, necessitated
a great many repairs to keep it in good condition. There are a
great many repairs that are required to be done, and will cost a
considerable amount of money, and are likely to increase every
year. We have made some necessary improvements in the build-
ing during the year. New water closets have been put in the
dormitories, replacing the old ones, which have been a continual
source of expense keeping them in repair. The old range, being
all burnt out, necessitated a new one, which was put in last Feb-
ruary and at the present time is working well. There have been
new pipes put in different parts of the building, thus giving a
better water supply. A new fence has been built at the barn,
making a large yard for pigs to run in. A new fence has also
been built at the south end of the building, replacing the old
one, which was blown down. This fence acts as a wind-break to
protect the yard from the heavy westerly winds that blow during
the afternoon.
The fence enclosing the building is in a very bad condition.
The braces on that portion of the fence facing east being very
unsafe, in case of a very heavy wind I could not answer for
318 REPORT OF THE
the damage that would be done. The bottom of the fence is rot-
ten from the top of the ground down, and will necessitate the
putting of new fencing from the depth of three feet to about the
same distance above ground. This, with new braces on the out-
side, will make it quite secure.
PAINTING, ETC.
The walls of the main 'building, school rooms and small dor-
mitory have all been whitened and some of them painted. The
office, sitting room and hall ways have all been painted in imita-
tion of wainscoting. Other parts of the building have been
painted when required.
GRADING.
A number of convicts have been sent over from the House of
Correction to work, grading the rear bank. The dirt taken from
the bank is used to make a road leading from the rear gate to the
barn, thereby avoiding the heavy grade we have to use now. The
road is nearly finished, and it is my intention to continue it along
the south and east sides of the fence to connect with the main
road, and thereby improve the entrance to the yard. When the
bank is graded it will make a great improvement to the rear
yard.
I am pained to report the death of two boys in the institution
during the year. Frank Faskell, aged eighteen years, died March
10, 1880, after a lingering sickness of many months. William
Beinhardt, aged sixteen years, died May 8, 1880; he was 'also
sick a long time. They were both buried from the institution
with appropriate services. I will liere return my thanks to Dr.
B. D. Dean, our visiting physician, for the care and attention he
has always shown those who have been unfortunate enough to
come under his care.
Schedule "D" will show the manner in which the appropria-
tion has been expended. Under the head of repairs and improve-
ments there should be added $232 50 paid for the new range,
also $154 40 paid for a new copper kettle put in the laundry;
these amounts were put in the miscellaneous account and should
be deducted from that account.
During the year I have visited the Magdalen Asylum weekly.
INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL. 319
I have always found the inmates in good spirits, cleanly, and
well taken care of. There have been no complaints made to me
of any kind, and all the inmates appear to be as contented as
could be expected under the circumstances.
There was paid to the Magdalen Asylum last year, for the
maintenance of 841 girls, being an average of 70J girls per month,
$12,863 50; while the provisions, clothing and shoes, to maintain
1,685 inmates in the Industrial School amount to $11,593 63; the
average cost of maintaining the girls per month was $15 40.4;
for maintaining an average of 141 1-12 inmates in the Industrial
School, per month, was $7 41.9. This, to me, seems to be more
than should be paid. The girls can be taken care of in this in-
stitution at a cost of one-half the amount paid at present. I
would recommend that some action be taken by your Honorable
Board toward lessening the expense of keeping the girls, either
by reducing the amount paid for their maintenance at the asylum,
or having them transferred to this institution.
Appended are schedules showing the commitments, discharges,
disbursements, average cost of maintenance, etc.
To your Honorable Body I desire to express my warmest thanks
for courtesies extended, and to the Industrial School and House
of Correction Committees for material assistance in expediting
work done during the year.
To the officers and employees I am indebted, their labors being
arduous, and at times showing no satisfactory results. I tender
them my sincere thanks, hoping to receive their earnest co-oper-
ation in the future as I have in the past.
Trusting that our labors will receive the approbation of your
Honorable Board, this report is respectfully submitted.

School exercises are as follows:
Monday Spelling, Reading, Arithmetic, Writing, and Lessons on Morals
and Manners.
Tuesday Spelling, Beading, Intellectual and Written Arithmetic, Gram-
mar, Geography, Writing and Singing.
Wednesday As on Monday.
Thursday As on Tuesday.
Friday Spelling, Reading, Dictation, Composition, Arithmetic, and Les-
sons on Morals and Manners.
Saturday is taken up with house cleaning, bathing, inspection of clothing,
etc.
* Sunday Religious exercises from 9% to 10% A. M., and Sunday School
from two to three o'clock p. M.
* Band Exercises On school days from 10 to 10% A. M. and from 6% to
7% P. M.
The band is composed at the present time of young boys who have been
but a frhort time under instruction, and are doing very well, considering this
fact and that they have old instruments, worn-out and almost unfit for use.
But steps are being taken to obtain new instruments, and then, under their
able and attentive leader, they will regain their old standing as one of the
leading bands of the city.
During the past year we have received many favors in the way of presents
of pictorials, magazines and papers, which are ^agerly sought for by the boys
and read and re-read. Our best friend has been the Society of California
Pioneers, and then Messrs. Badger, Grant and Rev. Father Harrington.
It will be seen from the tables given that the boys have made considerable
progress during the past year, and that in the face of many obstacles. A
number of the boys have at times to be absent from school attending to work
in the shops, on the farm and garden. But this is not a loss, for I consider
it more desirable to teach the class of boys we have to deal with habits of
industry and obedience to law than mere book learning.
Most of the boys in this institution have been brought here through the
fault of parents, who have allowed them to be truants from school, idlers
about the streets day and nightand so descending until graduating from
INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL. 323
the dives and "dumps" to the station-house, "Ref," House of Correction
and then ?
As has been said to me, "Those words, sir, are the first words of kindness,
of hope, ever spoken to me. I will try to be good." And they have tried,
and while with us have given no trouble, but too often, when discharged,
they find no home as it should be, and are thrown back among their old chums
of the streets, and then again return to us, worse, more hardened in crime
than before.
On Sundays service is held in the morning for the Catholic boys by a
priest, who comes from the city. Rev. Father Kelly, S. J., has been con-
stant in attendance during the past year. In the afternoon Sisters of Mercy
from St. Mary's Hospital attend and take charge of the Sunday School, and
to view the boys while under their care, so quiet and respectful and atten-
tive, it would be almost impossible to believe that they were the hoodlums
who had been the terror of so many parts of the city.
The Protestant boys and all who are not Catholics attend a service in the
morning conducted by one of the teachers, and in the afternoon Sunday
School. Formerly, some interest was taken to send ministers and teachers
but of late we have been wholly neglected, as during the past year but one
Protestant minister has visited us, and that was specially by request to attend
the funeral of one of our boys.
This is much to be regretted, for without religious instruction there will be
no reformation. Where there is no sense of God there will be small sense of
guilt, and without sense of guilt there will be no repentance or better life.
The teacher cannot have the power to interest and instruct the boys as readily
as one who is not brought so much in contact with them, as he is daily. So
I hope that during the coming year we will not have to say so often on Sun-
days: " No one is coming to-day."
Allow me to say one word more. I believe, and my experience of twenty
years with boys (two years in this institution) makes me believe, that these
boys can be reformed. During the past the average for conduct in school
(4% hours daily) is ninety per cent. What school can show better ?
Boys who can so control themselves can be brought to so conduct them-
selves that they will become good men and good citizens.
We want more accommodation, that we may separate the boys into smaller
classes, according to character, etc., and long terms of sentence, that when a
boy has turned into the right path we may help him until he can travel alone.
Give us these, and we ask no more to insure the reformation of the unfortu-
nates sent to this institution.
Respectfully submitted,
JNO. C. ROBINSON,
Principal Teacher.

CORONER'S REPORT.
CORONER'S OFFICE,
SAN FRANCISCO, July 31, 1880.
To the Hon. the Board of Supervisors
of the City and County of San Francisco:
In compliance with Kesolution No. 14,765 (New Series), passed
by your honorable body, July 6, 1880, requesting a report of the
condition of this Department of the City Government during
fiscal year ending June 30, 1880, I have the honor to submit the
following tables and remarks thereon:
Table No. 1. The number of deaths reported, autopsies made
and inquests held during each month of the year. It shows that
the total number of deaths reported for investigation was four
hundred and thirty-two (432), an average of thirty-six (36), per
month and in number forty-six (46), more than last year. Au-
topsies were made in one hundred and sixty-nine cases, an
average of about fourteen (14), per month and a decrease of eight
(8), cases from last year. Of inquests there have been held two
hundred and twenty-three (223), about one-half of the cases re-
ported for investigation. This gives an average of over eighteen
(18), per month and an increase of seventeen (17), from last year.
Table No. 2. The cause of death in each case and the nature
of crime charged, if any. Comparing this table (mortuary table)
with that of last year, we find that there has been but little
change in the number of sudden and unexpected deaths from
natural causes. We would have a definite number of such deaths
in a given population and it is probable that there has been but
little change in the number of inhabitants during the last year.
334 CORONER'S REPOKT.
In Table No. 3 there will be found an analysis of these sud-
den and unexpected deaths from natural causes, and it is inter-
esting from the fact that sufficient disease existed to cause death,
yet but little if any signs were given or known to the friends or
usual medical attendant. A number of these were from brain
lesions difficult to diagnosticate or anticipate. The number of
the forms of pneumonia, the so-called "walking pneumonia/ 1
where the patient is able to be about until near death, were nu-
merous but about the same as other years. There were other
diseases of the lungs apoplexy and congestion but a few, of
course, where consumption was found to have killed, and in
these cases as in many others of death from a disease which may
have been chronic, if the friends or medical attendant had been
known and found, they would not have been considered sudden
or surprising. Disease of heart claims about the usual number,
while aneurism was somewhat less than usual. The only other
cause of death in the list worthy of remark is two deaths from
exposure to cold, which, in this climate, may be astonishing.
These were Chinese fishermen whose boat became unmanageable
and filled with water in the bay, during one of our cold storms
last winter, and they were compelled to remain in the boat until
they died. In the ages of the cases the extremes are found, but
the average (41), may" be considered about the average age at
death from all causes and circumstances in life. The greater
number are found between 45 and 55. In occupation there are
few having trades wnere the powers of endurance for continuous
and prolonged work are tested, the most being of the callings
where but little exertion is required. "Housewives" and "La-
borers" are of course positions where strength is somewhat
tested, but as there is no established price for a day's work in
such positions it is probable the sum paid governed the work
performed to a considerable extent. As regards the nativity of
these cases the most are found to be natives of California, Ger-
many and Ireland. The former are all under five years of age.
In color the negroes are undoubtedly in large proportion to the
number with us. The males are largely in excess, and the single
are considerably so. The proportions to the number in our
midst cannot be stated without consulting the census returns,
now incomplete.
CONTENTS OF TABLES. 335
The number of accidental deaths has increased, but not from
the processes of building and the carrying on of general business,
as there has been a decrease in deaths from "falls" and "run
over by vehicles," but from a large number of deaths caused by
burning and drowning. Three-fifths of the deaths from burning
were Chinese laundry men, and in the circumstances surrounding-
them it was demonstrated that great carelessness existed in their
use of fires and coal oil, while many deaths were the direct re-
sult of the habits of these tradesmen to work nearly all night,
then obtain a few hours rest and sleep by stupefying themselves
with opium, when the flames and death found them easy victims.
The whole city and the lives of its inhabitants are no doubt en-
dangered by allowing these laundries to be located in nearly
every block. The establishing of a Chinese quarter as a guard
against the spread of fires to a people comparatively law abiding*
and careful, is something to hope for. Twenty-one persons were
killed outright during the year by being burned or suffocated in
fire, and one person died from burns received in a fire a few
days before his demise. Of this number eighteen were males
and four females, Chinese fifteen, white seven, adults nineteen,
and children three. All of these lives were lost in six fires.
There is no explanation to make for the remarkable increase
in the number of deaths from drowning, as there has been no-
calamity where more than one death occurred, except in one in-
stance, when three men lost their lives by the capsizing of a
boat. It is perhaps strange we do not have more deaths from
this cause, considering our large water frontage and the amount
of business that requires crossing the Bay. All cases of drown-
ing are not. known, and many known to be drowned are not reck-
oned in this or any other office, as the bodies were not recovered.
So our number is probably far from the facts.
In Table No. 4 will be found an analysis of these accidental
deaths. As regards occupation, it will be seen that laborers,
laundry men and seamen are greatly in excess of other callings.
In nativity, as might be expected from occupation, those born
in Ireland are much the most numerous; then come those born
in this State, and closely following them those of China. Three-
fourths of those born in California were under fifteen years of
336 CORONER'S REPORT.
age. There was but one of the accidental deaths among the
negroes. In sex, about six-sevenths were males. In domestic
condition over four-sevenths were, fortunately, single, while in
twelve of the Chinese it was unascertained. In age, there is
a large number between the ages of thirty-five and forty.
It is very gratifying to be able to say that the deaths from the
careless use of fire-arms were only four one of them from the
premature discharge of a small cannon and the remaining three
from pistol-shot wounds. Nine accidental deaths resulted in the
year 1878-79 from the use of fire-arms.
Table No. 5 is of the victims of homicide. Perhaps a more
interesting statement could be made of the perpetrators, but the
points for such a report are not furnished by the records of this
office. Of murders there were twenty-one (21), four more than
in 1878-79. This is a large number, but not as large as two
and three years ago, when it was twenty- five and twenty-seven,
respectively. Comparing the number this year with New York
City in 1879, when they had one murder to every 25,000 of the
inhabitants, we find we had one murder to every 11,190 of the
population, or more than double the number we should have
had as compared with the largest city in the United States. Ex-
cluding the Chinese from our calculation which, perhaps, is a
better test we have had one murder for every 17,755 inhabi-
tants, still indicating a number much too large. Nine of the
murders were among the Chinese, and, saying that we have about
20,000 Chinese in this city, it would be one for every 2,222. In
all cases of Chinese, excepting one, the murderer was of the
same nationality. The system of professional murderers among
this peculiar people was frequently recognized, and during the
year several of the assassins have evaded detection. These mur-
ders are of the most cowardly and dastardly kind, not one hav-
ing the semblance of manslaughter or justifiable homicide,
generally undertaken for purposes of revenge in money difficul-
ties. Of the victims among the whites, two were wives mur-
dered by their husbands in the most brutal manner. The
remaining nineteen were males, and fifteen of them were single

times. Three cases of manslaughter occurred daring the year

a decrease of two from the preceding year. Of justifiable homi-
cide, there were three cases an increase of one from 1878-9.
Two of these deaths were* caused by police officers in the lawful
discharge of their duty. Negroes are conspicuous by being ab-
sent from this list.
SUICIDES. There have been ninety (90) suicides during the year,
only a slight gain from the previous year, when we had eighty-
six (86). This gives us reckoning, as shown by the late census,
that we have 233,066 inhabitants, one suicide to every 2,589 of
the population. The calculation last year of one for every 3,488
of the population has proven to be markedly erroneous, we not
having by 66,934 the number of people with us that the supposed
most reliable estimates gave. As a definite comparison, New
York City can be instanced. In 1877, that city had one suicide
to every 7,225 of the population, while Paris in 1878 had one
suicide to every 2,676 of the population. The calculation for
New York is taken from the City Record, the official journal.
That for Paris is taken from the Bulletin Eecapitulatif de Statis-
tique Municipale, sent to this office a few months ago. Both of
these sources cannot be questioned, and are the only grounds
for authoritative calculations, while our recent census is sup-
posed to be correct. It must be acknowledged, then, that we
have more than two and one-half times as many suicides as New
York City, and a number excelling Paris, this being in propor-
tion to the number of inhabitants in each of those cities. Our
number of ninety for the year does not include one in Septem-
ber, one in October and two in May, all males, who suicided by
drowning themselves in the Bay, and whose bodies were not re-
covered. They all belonged to this city, and should be em-
braced in our numbers and appear in the report. A record of
the published attempts at suicide has been kept, and it is found
they number fifty (50), fourteen less than last year. Of these,
thirty-four were males and sixteen females, which, as might be
expected, is a large proportion of females as compared with the
relative numbers of those who succeed in suiciding. In four
cases this was the second attempt, in two cases the third attempt
and in one case the fourth attempt; in the remaining forty-three
cases there was nothing published of previous attempts. It
22
338 CORONER'S REPORT.
is well known that many attempts are made that the report of
never reaches the public or press, hidden away, an ugly skeleton
in many a family closet. No doubt, in 'some instances, perhaps
not a few, the act is accomplished, but reported otherwise. A
recent writer on this subject makes the statement that in Europe
the attempts and those successes concealed from the officials
and public would, in his opinion, equal one-half the suicides
officially known. His estimate is not near enough for this com-
munity, where we have published more than that proportion.
It is not unreasonable to expect that in the deaths from un-
known causes among the Chinese and others of which there
were in 1877, 438 Chinese and 55 of all others, in 1878, 407 Chi-
nese and 39 of all others, and in 1879, 346 Chinese and 39 of all
others that not a few are concealed cases of suicide, particu-
larly as we know how constantly all but a few of the Chinese use
the deadly opium, yet it is not known to have killed but about
one-half of the known suicides of Chinese during the past year.
Death from unknown causes is not found in the reports of other
cities. If we add the recorded number of suicides (90), the
drowned in the Bay and not recovered (4), to the published at-
tempts (50), we would have the aggregate of 144, or one to every
1,618 of the population of our young city, and this, it must be
remembered, is not counting the unpublished attempts and con-
cealed successes. If we consider, as far as this illustration of
the state of society is concerned, that the attempt is equal to the
accomplishment, in what a deplorable condition we must find
ourselves. Reports from every county in the state have been re-
ceived of the number of suicides during the year 1879, and we
find that there have been recorded 227 in a population estimated
from nearly completed census returns of 862,780. This would
be one suicide to every 3,800 of the inhabitants, a number nearly
doubling that of New York City, as compared with the number
of people. When we examine the reports of the different coun-
ties, and compare the number of suicides with the population,
we find there have been seven counties exceeding San Francisco
in its frequency. They are Alpine, Colusa, El Dorado, Lassen,
Marin, Mono and Sutter, ranging from one in 179 to one in 2,129
of the population. In the counties where they have a population
CONTENTS OF TABLES. 33!)
next to this one, we find in Alameda one in 3,684, in Sacramento
one in 3,016, in Santa Clara one in 5,016, in Sonoma one in
5,169, and in Los Angeles one in 11,130. In thirteen counties
there were no suicides in 1879. In Europe, as a whole, they
have an annual average of one to every 5,000. In Denmark,
where the greatest mortality from suicides of any country in
Europe exists, they have 276 for every million of the population.
In Paris, the rate is six times that of the French country people.
In this city, our rate is a little less than double that of the coun-
try (that is, all outside of San Francisco), where they have one
suicide for every 4,664 of the inhabitants. So it seems that our
suicidal mania is not confined altogether to San Francisco, but
extends to the entire State. While we say that the frequency of
suicides in France is a Parisian eccentricity, in this State we take
in a wider field, and, leaving the metropolis, are obliged to call
it a California monstrosity.
Table No. 6 contains the special particulars of the cases of
suicide during the past year. In nativity nearly two-thirds of
the victims were born out of the United States, and of these
there were 13 each born in Germany, Ireland and China. The
number of Germans has decreased more than one-half as com-
pared with the number of the previous year. In color, we have
no negroes. Of sex, one-sixth of the whole number (the usual
proportion), were females. Nearly one-half were fortunately
single persons. More than five-ninths were supposed or known
to have been educated under Protestant influences, while over
one-sixth of all were Catholics and three of the cases were Jews.
As regards intellect, seven were weak or below the average,
seventy-two were considered only average and nine were above
it. In former attempts, one had made one attempt and four had
made two attempts on their lives before the successful time. In
age, the youngest was 15, the oldest 70, giving an average of
39-J-- By examining the table it will be seen that the most have
occurred between the ages of 25 to 30 and 50 to 55. If it was
known how many of each age were among us, it would probably
be found that there are more old persons committing suicide in
proportion to the number with us, it being the case in other
cities. This table gives the nativities by ages, also the means by
340 CORONER'S REPORT.
ages. By the latter it is observed that the two youngest, from
15 to '20, used the pistol as a means, while the oldest used a
knife. In a continuation of this table will be found a list of na-
tivity by means used. Nine -chose death by drowning, two of
whom were Chinese. Eleven by hanging, five of whom were
Chinese and two were Frenchmen. Six of the ninety used
the knife, four of the number selecting the throat as the
point of attack. The pistol was used in about one-third of the
cases, nearly all of these selecting the head One Chinaman
shot himself in the abdomen, and this is the only one on record
in this office for many years, if ever, who, among the Chinese,
has used the pistol for such a purpose. Thirty-four of all de-
cided on poison as a means, twenty of them using preparations
of opium. Five took strychnia. In the table of occupation we
find, as we would expect, that housewives and laborers have the
largest numbers. Then follow clerks and speculators. The un-
known and no occupation have a large number. At this time it
is impossible to say how these numbers compare to the numbers
with us. Of domestic condition, thirty-six, or somewhat more
than a third, had no relatives in the State, as far as known;
twenty left wives and eleven left children in this State, to strug-
gle on in life as best they may, or to receive the cold charity of
the multitude, cowardly deserting them, while in most cases of a
perfectly sane mind and in the moments of greatest need, when
their strong arms could be of the most use to those they should
love best, and live and suffer for, if necessary. Nine of the sui-
cides left husbands, and two of these females left children.
In the predisposing causes, 30 were for pecuniary difficulties.
Of these 6 were from gambling in mining stocks and 15 simply
the want of means to live on. In 6 cases domestic unhappiness
was the cause. After having committed a crime claims 6. The
excessive use of alcohol is given in 13 cases. Unsoundness of
mind was found to be conducive in one case, and positive insan-
ity in two instances. Physical suffering was claimed as the cause
in 4 subjects, while an incurable disease, which in every person
was the truth, was the ascribed cause in 13 cases.
In the immediate causes, stock gambling has but one victim,
and purely want* of means has thirty-one. Domestic unhappi-
CONTENTS OF TABLES. 341
ness has five, equally divided in the sex of the persons married.
Homesickness has one only. Fears of various results, real and
imaginary, caused eleven to take their lives. King Alcohol claims
fifteen victims. An unsound mind was the cause in five cases
and insanity in two. Physical suffering was the cause in seven
cases, and in six instances a reasonable cause was not ascertained.
In looking over these circumstances supposed and known to ex-
ist at the time the rash act was perpetrated, it is very difficult to
consider them in any way justifiable, but there are many instan-
ces, where, in the opinion of many thinking people, the act might
be considered excusable under the circumstances. Granting
that those suffering from the acute or chronic effects of alcohol,
one in an extreme state of anger, those poorest of unfortunates
who are called on to endure great physical suffering and those
from chronic incurable disease might be added to the number of
unsound mind and insanity, and in charity including the six
cases where no known cause was ascertained, it would take
thirty-six cases away from the total of ninety, -leaving fifty-four
cases to be accounted for. The various fears, remorse, grief,
homesickness and love disappointments might be said by some
to be excusable and sufficient reasons for taking one's life. This
would take off twenty more and leave thirty-four to explain away.
The only causes we have left are business disappointments and a
simple want of means, and it is to these that the crime of moral
cowardice can be justly attributed. A recent English writer in
Blackwood's Magazine, says, in relation to suicide: " We of to-
" day have learned to see it not only a monstrous self-indulgence
" but also an atrocious crime and an idiotic cowardice. We deny
" its pretensions to be a grasp at peace and a declaration of lib-
" erty; we proclaim it to be a grasp at the unknown and a dec-
" laration of revolt."
Illustrations of the cowardice of suicides are frequently seen
in this office. It is only necessary for me to give the particulars
of one. S, a healthy, strong able bodied man had risen from a
day laborer to a contractor and had considerable success. Times
becoming dull, he, anticipating financial ruin in the future, made
the remark that rather than return to work as a laborer he would
kill himself. He did so early one morning, leaving his feeble
CORONERS REPORT.
wife and several small children to struggle on in poverty. Will
anyone -say that if this man had not succeeded he should not
have been punished ? The law of England is somewhat incon-
sistent. It says suicide is murder, but the attempt to commit it
is only a misdemeanor.
The English author whom I have quoted above also says, that :
" The revival of suicide has almost exactly coincided in time with
" the modern extension of schooling, and is found most abund-
" ant in the regions in which schooling is most expanded." He
denies that climate has anything to do with causing suicides, yet
he states that in Algeria, where many French soldiers are sta-
tioned, and kill themselves from homesickness, it has been re-
marked that the moment ordinarily chosen \>j them for the
purpose is when the irritating south wind blows. It will be re
membered that there are more suicides in this city during the
months of April, May, June and July, when our irritating winds
blow the hardest.

CONTENTS OF TABLES. 343
In suits against the Sheriff, fees have been collected and paid
over to the City and County Treasurer, in accordance with law,
amounting to two hundred and ten dollars and forty cents
($210 40).
In conclusion, I beg leave to tender my thanks to Deputy
Coroners Wheeler and Hamilton, and to Messenger Smith, for
faithful performance of their several duties; also, to ex-Police
Surgeon Stivers, Police Surgeon Clarke and City Physician
Blach, for the careful manner of making autopsies during the
last year. I am under obligations to ex-Chief of Police Kirk-
patrick, Chief of Police Crowley and the police force, ex-Sheriff
Nunan, Sheriff Desmond and Deputies, for timely assistance in
the discharge of my official duties, and to the public press for
advertisement of the description of unknown dead and those of
questionable identity. I am also under obligations to your Hon-
orable Body for furnishing all means and facilities requested for
properly conducting this office.
Very respectfully,
L. L. DOEE, M. D.,
Coroner.

HEALTH OFFICER REPORT.
"
-
GENTLEMEN I have the honor to transmit my 'report of the
affairs of this office, including mortuary and other statistics, for
fiscal year terminating June 30, 1880.
During the year there were 4,340 deaths against 4,493 of the
year preceding, a decrease of 153.
Our population, ,last year was estimated (Langley's Directory)
The annual ratio of deaths per 1,000 population was 14.75.
- year shows our population to be by actual
count 233,700, to that notwithstanding the decrease in the num-
ber of deaths, the ratio per 1,000 population is increased from
14.7" ne can belie IT population has de-
creased 72,000 in 12 months. If the census as taken by the U.
jverninent is correct then our population has undoubtedly
beeL ji several years. This over estimating the
population of cities, whether intentionally or unintentionally,
causes much embarrassment and lessei .uch the value of
Tital and mortuary statistics.
our population at 233>700 the annual ratio of deaths
per 1,000 is 1 Bating the Chinese population (T
ccnfcu _- annual ratio of deaths per 1,000 : - __
Estimating the population of all other nationalities at 211,700
.--.- annual ratio of deaths per 1,000 is 18.29, thus
showing that there are nearly (3) three deaths in a thousand more
414 HEALTH OFFICER'S REPORT.
among the Chinese than other nationalities. Notwithstanding
the Chinese population is composed almost entirely of adults,
while more than one-third of the deaths in other nationalities are
under five years of age.
Considering the miserable condition of our sewers and the
presence in the very heart of our city of more than 20,000 Chi
nese who live for the most part in underground habitations with-
out any proper ventilation, breathing an atmosphere so contami-
nated as to be absolutely nauseating to those unaccustomed to
it, we have much to be thankful for in estimating our ratio of
mortality. Protected, as we are, by the presence of our trade
winds and the general salubrity of our climate, it is to be feared,
that only a repetition of virulent epidemics will awaken our
people to the necessity of removing these constantly menacing
causes of disease.
I have over and over again urged the enforcement of the cubic
air law as the only possible means of correcting the sanitary evils
of the Chinese quarter.
By constant vigilance many nuisances are abated and a great
deal of money expended to make this portion of the city even
tolerable, but so long as these people are permitted to live as at
present in over crowded dens, socially, morally and in a sanitary
point of view they are a curse to San Francisco . The daily en-
forcement of the cubic air law would compel many of these
people to leave the city or live in less crowded quarters.
In my reports heretofore made to the Hon . Board of Super-
visors, I have so fully discussed the subject of sewerage, that I
have nothing further to recommend and can only refer you to
those reports, hoping that they may lead to some beneficial leg-
islation upon the subject.
I desire, however, to repeat what I have said about the neces-
sity of thorough ventilation of sewers, because of its great
sanitary importance . All intelligent sanitarians know that any
system of sewerage without thorough ventilation is a most fruit-
ful source of disease.
The most inexpensive and, in my opinion, the most practical
and effective way of ventilating sewers is to have perforated
EEMARKS. 415
instead of solid manhole covers, or what would be still better,
open grates.
In my report three years ago, where this subject is more fully
discussed, I stated that the experience of other cities demon-
strated that if these manholes are placed at proper distances,
admitting a free circulation of atmospheric air, the foul and
noxious vapors are so entirely diluted as to render them not only
inodorous but comparatively harmless. The sewers of London
are ventilated by gratings placed at intervals of 100 feet, The
sewers of Paris being under the sidewalks are ventilated through
the gutters. The reduction of the death rate of London in a
few years from 37J in 1000 population to about 23 is probably
more due to the thorough ventilation of its sewers than all
other causes combined. In further verification of these views, I
desire to call your attention to the construction of the Geary
street cable railroad.
The engineer under whose supervision this road was con-
structed found it necessary for purposes of drainage to connect
the tubes through which the cable runs with the sewer in the
street, by cement pipes four inches in diameter. These pipes are
placed at intervals of forty feet, and so thorough does the venti-
lation seem to be that no complaint has been made of any offen-
sive odors from this sewer since the construction of this road.
Speaking from a sanitary stand point, I believe Geary street to
be the most desirable thoroughfare to live on in the city. The
offensive and mephitic vapors which, under certain degrees of
pressure, penetrate the dwellings of other streets of the city,
here escape into the open air in' a form so diluted as to be both
inodorous and innoxious.
A few ounces of alcohol given to a child a few months old
might take its life, yet if thrown into as many hogsheads of
water and thus diluted, the same quantity of this mixture taken
by the child would be entirely harmless.
It has been estimated that the manhole covers in this city
could be properly perforated for a little more than $3,000.
In proportion to the good to be attained the amount to be
expended is certainly very insignificant.
416 HEALTH OFFICEK'S KEPORT.
The valuable tables accompanying this report attest the intel-
ligence and industry of the secretaries' who prepared them.
The accompanying reports of the Market and Sanitary Inspect-
ors are the best evidence of the fidelity with which their duties
are performed.
Our mortuary report I believe to be absolutely correct. I re-
gret to say that our registration of births is still very unsatisfac-
tory, in consequence of many physicians, through carelessness
or inadvertence, neglecting to make returns to this office as
required by law.
The record of marriages furnished by our County Clerk,
who issues the licenses, is also believed to be absolutely correct.
The report of the Secretary shows that the expenses of this
office are a mere fraction of the amount expended by our city
government.
Very Respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
J. L. MEAEES, M. D.,
Health Officer, City and County of San Francisco.

CITY PHYSICIANS REPORT.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 31, 1880.
To the Honorable the Board of Supervisors
of the City and County of San Francisco:
GENTLEMEN In presenting this, my Fourth Annual Report, in
compliance with Resolution No. 14,765 (New Series), I desire to
make a few remarks in regard to the institutions placed by the
Honorable Board of Health uuder my charge.
The County Jail is entirely inadequate to its needs, not having
capacity sufficient for the proper and healthful placement of its
inmates; thus, as ynu see, impairing their general health, and in
consequence causing an extra expense upon the city for medi-
cines, which otherwise could be avoided.
Through the courtesy of the Sheriff, Thomas Desmond, a suit-
able room has been set aside for hospital purposes, and has been
furnished by your Honorable Board; thus in a measure enabling
me to provide against epidemics, as well as establishing better
facilities in the treatment of acute cases. So far, there have
been no epidemical diseases in the County Jail, excepting one
case of Small Pox (Variola), which was immediately removed to
the Twenty-sixth Street Hospital. The Jail has been thoroughly
fumigated, and all of the inmates have been vaccinated. Credit
is due to the officers of the Jail for the cleanliness of this Insti-
tution, to which the good health of the inmates is partially at-
tributable.
The House of Correction, both in point of management and
484 CITY PHYSICIAN'S KEPOKT.
construction, is the best prison Institution which the City has
under its charge . The general health of the inmates during the
past year has been uniformly good. Nearly all of the cases
treated have been prisoners, who had contracted diseases else-
where, and came under my treatment when they were admitted
to this Institution The Superintendent, A. W. Prevost, to-
gether with the employees, deserve the highest commendation
for the good and hygienic condition of the Institution and the
prisoners.
The City Ileceiving Hospital, located in the basement of the
Old City Hall, is more immediately under the charge of the As-
sistant City Physician, and you will see by his report that it is the
receptacle of the numerous accidents and injuries occurring in
this city. It has been enlarged during the past year, and to a
certain extent refurnished by the action of your Honorable
Board. Still it is inadequate for the work performed and for the
accommodation of its patients. The Hospital comprises three (3)
small rooms (not including the operating room), having a ca-
pacity of six (6) beds, and often, as in the event of serious acci-
dents (such as fires, falling buildings, etc.) we have been only
able to give the patients a mattress on the floor. The ventilation,
at best, is bad, and w T hen the Hospital is so overcrowded it be-
comes almost unbearable . As the City increases in population,
new streets being opened, new railroads being built, etc., surgi-
cal accidents must necessarily increase in number, and therefore
better accommodations should be provided. In no sense, is this
a Prison Hospital, the greater share of patients being citizens
meeting with accidents in their daily avocation or business.
Credit is due to your Honorable Board (especially to the
Chairmafh of Health and Police) for the prompt compliance with
my requests and needs. Also to Dr. C. A. Stivers, late Assistant
City Physician and Police Surgeon, as well as to the present in-
cumbent, J. J. Clarke, M. D., for the diligent and faithful per-
formance of their duties.
A tabulated statement of autopsies made from July 1, 1879,
until May 31, 1880, (11 months) has been furnished by C. A.
Stivers, M. D., and for the month of June, 1880, by J. J. Clarke,
M.D., at my request, which you will see annexed.

HOSPITAL REPORT.
CITY AND COUNTY HOSPITAL, )
SAN FRANCISCO, July 1, 1880. \
'lo the Honorable the Board of Supervisors
of the City and County of San Francisco:
GENTLEMEN I have the honor to make the accompanying
annual report of the City and County Hospitel for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 1880.
On my taking charge of the Hospital I was urged by members
of the Honorable Board of Health to place the same on a par
with the other public institutions under their control. I found
the administrative department had not been whitened and
painted for five years; the quarters for the employees were in a
most reprehensible condition, the walls and woodwork nob
having been cleaned for ten years; the wards had not been
whitened for three years, nor had any portion of the interior
been repainted since the erection of the Hospital. It requiried
the labor of seven men, continuously, painting and whitening
for four months before the institution could be considered in a
fair presentable condition. With the exception of nominal
wages to an expert, as director of the labor, the entire work was
voluntarily performed by the patients in a manner creditable
to any mechanic. The Hospital roof was iu a most faulty con-
dition, leaking and destroying the ceiling in many of the wards,
the water closets, sinks, floors, doorsills, basement apaartments,
beds and bedding in fine, the entire appurtenances were in a
496 HOSPITAL REPORT
most reduced and dilapidated state. For want of timely repairs
the oven Lad caved in and had to be rebuilt; the kitchen ranges,
boilers, heaters, grates for all the furnaces and fireplaces had to
be renewed, requiring a large amount of funds to repair and
replace them. Furniture, crockery, tableware and linen of all
kinds, were reduced to the lowest limit, originating complaints
from the attachees continually. Most of the sashcords, window
curtains and cords had to be renewed, at an outlay of means that
would have saved the sum of $422 per month the past five
months, had the building been kept in ordinary repair.
By the kind co-operation of your Hospital Committee the
institution is again in proper condition to reflect credit to their
active management, and equal to its state when first erected.
I would respectfully call the attention of your honorable
Board to the urgent necessity of supplying the Laundry with a
suitable washer and wringer. A similar one as used at the Alms
House would supply our wants and eventuate in a large saving
to the Hospital. A new pump is likewise needed at the engine
room; the present one being so old as not to admit of further
repair.
The payroll has been reduced from forty-three employees, at
a monthly expenditure of $2,208, under its former manage-
ment, to thirty-nine assistants, and a monthly payment of $2,057;
an annual saving of $1,812.
A close supervision of the requisition for drugs, liquors, etc.,
has resulted in the saving in the Apothecary's Department, the
past fiscal year, of $1,953 54; a sum nearly sufficient to pay for
the repairs of the Hospital.
The Visiting Physicians and Surgeons are entitled to the
warmest thanks of the public for their efficient and kindly aid to
the suffering poor. To Dr. H. W. Boone, the Kesident Physi-
cian, I have many commendations for his courteous demeanor
and active professional attention to all the duties of his position.
All the officers have vied with each other in personally supervis-
ing their respective departments in a most efficient manner.
Yours respectfully,
ISAAC S. TITUS, M. D.,
Superintendent Physician City and County Hospital.

REPORT
OF THE
KEEPER OF THE CITY CEMETERY.
SAN -FRANCISCO, July 26, 1880.
To the Honorable the Board of Supervisors
of the City and County of San Francisco:
GENTLEMEN In accordance with resolution of your Honorable
Body (No. 14,765 New Series) I beg leave to report, that for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1880, there have been interred in the
City Cemetery, of the indigent dead 3 four hundred and twenty-four
(424), of which six (6) were of African extraction, and fourteen
(14) were natives of China.
Of the several societies to whom your Honorable Body have
donated burial plots there have been interred
From the Six Chinese Companies 475
French Mutual Benevolent Society 19
Beth Olam .* 9
Ked Men 2
Italians , 2
Christian Chinese . . 5
512
Making the total interments for the year nine hundred and thirt} r -six (936).
Total disinterments for the year seventeen (17).
CITY CEMETEKY. 533
There has been expended for 250 head and foot boards $162 50
For building shed and repairs to Keeper's house 112 50
Curbing water well . . 150 00
Total $425 00
The French Benevolent Society have improved their plat by
proper fencing, constructing a receiving vault, a water well and
windmill pump.
The German Benevolent Society and the Red Men have fenced
their plats in accordance with their grants, and the Scandinavian
Society are enclosing their grounds in like manner.
I would beg leave to suggest that the several sections set
apart for the indigent dead, to wit: Nos. 2, 5, 8, 10 and 11, be
properly fenced, as the surveyor's stakes now marking their
boundaries are liable to be misplaced or covered with sand by
the prevailing winds; I believe it would be economy to fence
immediately and save the possible cost of another survey.
I would most respectfully beg leave to call your attention to
the necessity of improving the main avenue by macadamizing
a comparatively inexpensive work, as at the entrance of the
Cemetery on city property there is a quarry of proper rock for
the purpose. As the avenue now is, it is with difficulty that
man or horse can pull through it.
Should your Honorable Body order the work to be done it
would be an incentive for the several societies to improve the
roads to and about their respective grounds.
The rail fence surrounding the Cemetery should be recon-
structed. Most of the posts are rotten at the base, and almost
every windy day it becomes necessary to repair. About the
outside expense would be the cost of new posts and labor.
Very respectfully,
A. P. STANYAN,
Keeper City Cemetery.

From the foregoing statistics and comparison with former An-
nual Keports, it will be seen that the number of inmates at the
City and County Alms House is steadily increasing from year to
year; the daily average number for 1879 and '80, having been
555. This is a daily average of 74 more than for the preceding
year.
Owing to this large increase of numbers, and to extensive im-
provements made on the premises, the aggregate expense of the
institution has been something in excess of the preceding year,
while the per capita expense of inmates has been $10 per annum
less. This result has only been accomplished by watchful econ-
omy, while at the same time the inmates have been clothed and
fed as well or better -than ever.
During the year I have raised and added one story to the hos-
pital of the institution, which will afford accommodation for
about sixty additional inmates. This improvement has been no
expense to the city and county beyond the amount paid for neces-
sary material, the labor having been performed by the carpenter
of the House, assisted by inmates. This addition, while afford-
ing temporary relief from overcrowding, is far from being ade-
quate to the wants of the institution, as the rainy season is sure
to bring a large influx of applicants for admission, which will tax
our ingenuity to suitably provide for. Last winter the house
was so full that I found it necessary to place quite a number of
beds in the cellar, which, owing to dampness and want of proper
542 ALMS HOUSE BEPORT.
ventilation, is unfit for human occupancy. As the number of in-
mates has increased in the past, so most certainly will such be
the case for the future.
In this connection it must be borne in mind that thirty years
ago, when our State was becoming settled, all who sought its
shores were men still young or in the prime of life; all of these
who survive are now old, and many of them, either through im-
providence or misfortune, are driven by necessity to seek the
shelter of the Alrnshouse. In view of these facts and the pru-
dence of a total separation of the sexes, I would respectfully
suggest to your honorable Board the urgent necessity for in-
creasing the facilities of the institution by the erection of a sep-
arate building for women and children.
With the added experience of another year, I must again
strenuously urge the justice and propriety of the State substan-
tially assisting in defraying the expenses of the Almshouse, as
nearly one-half of those who become inmates of the institution
have no just claim on the taxpayers of the City and County of
San Francisco. Many destitute persons are sent here who have
spent the best part of their lives in other portions of the State,
having been in the city only a few days, and in some cases only
a few hours. All such should in simple justice be provided for
by the State at large or by the county of which they are in re-
ality residents.
By judicious selection of seed and rotation of crops we have
this year succeeded in raising and securing first class crops of
hay and potatoes, especially the latter, the quality of which can-
not be excelled. The farm has also produced an abundant sup-
ply of milk and vegetables, as well as a large portion of the
butter used in the institution.
Our live stock has also done well, having increased consider-
ably in numbers, besides what has been sold and the amount of
$452.50 paid into the City and County Treasury.
Embodied in the foregoing report will be found a brief state-
ment of the affairs of the institution, with details of the opera-
tions of the different departments, showing the product of the
labor of the inmates, etc.
REMAKES. 543
From the opening of the City and County Almshouse to the
present time, 6,180 persons have been admitted and have en-
joyed the comforts of a home provided for them by the generos-
ity of the people of the City and County of San Francisco.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
M. J. KEATING,
Superintendent.

ASSESSOR'S REPORT.
ASSESSOR'S OFFICE, )
SAN FRANCISCO, July 30, 1880. j
To the Honorable the Board of Supervisors
q/ the City and County of San Francisco:
GENTLEMEN In compliance with your Resolution No. 13,700
(New Series), I herewith submit my Annual Report as City and
County Assessor for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1880.
In accordance with the requirements of the law, I had the
honor to deliver to your Honorable Body, the Assessment Roll
of Personal Property, contained in sixteen (16) volumes, amount-
ing to eighty-seven millions eight hundred and ninety-six
thousand dollars ($87,896,000.)
On the third Monday of July, I also delivered to you the Real
Estate Roll, contained in fifty-two volumes (52), and including
improvements amounting to one hundred and sixty-four millions
nine hundred and thirty-nine thousand six hundred and four
($164,939,604). I also had the honor to deliver to your Honor-
able Body two (2) volumes of assessments for opening Mont-
gomery Avenue; one volume containing assessments for the
payment of principal and interest on Dupont Street Bonds; four
(4) volumes of Alphabetical Index, and twenty-four (24) volumes
of Block Books containing maps of all the Real Estate of the city
and county of San Francisco.
Under the operations of the new Revenue Laws, and the taxa-
tion of mortgages, the work of this office has more than doubled.
548 ASSESSOR'S EEPOET.
While the assessment on Personal Property shows a great in-
crease over last year, the Eeal Estate Eoll shows a slight decline,
principally in outside lands.
I am fully convinced that the taxpayers of this city and
county are assessed much higher in proportion than in the ma-
jority of the counties of the State, San Francisco paying nearly
one-half of the taxes of the State.
In a few of the interior counties, property has been assessed
at about the same ratio as in this city and county, but the great
majority are from ten to fifty per cent, lower. This is an injus-
tice which I trust the State Board of Equalization will remedy,
either by a general increase in the interior counties, or by a
marked decrease in the assessed values in this city and county.
In making the assessment on Real and Personal Property I
have pursued a conservative course, avoiding, as far a possible,
inequality or injustice. The greatest possible care and attention
has been bestowed on the Real and Personal Property assess-
ments, by experienced and competent deputies, and the Boll
just completed I believe to be as free from errors as human
agency can make it.
I shall ask the State Board of Equalization to examine both
the Beal and Personal Boll, with a view of arriving at a more
perfect system of assessment, if it shall be in the range of pos-
sibilities.
The expenses of this office for the past year amount to $146,-
087.45. This increase over the expense of the previous year
was occasioned by the great additional labor of assessing mort-
gages, a portion of my clerical force being compelled to work
by night, that the books might be ready on the day appointed
by law to turn them over .
All of which is respectfully submitted,
ALEXANDEE BADLAM,
City and County Assessor.

604 COUNTY CLERK'S REPORT.
COMPARISON WITH PAST YEARS :
1872-73 with only eight Courts $6,481 23 deficit
1873-74 with only eight Courts 14,603 54 deficit
1874-75 with only eight Courts ... 7,821 08 deficit
1875-76 with only eight Courts 10,700 64 deficit
1876-77 with only eight Courts 5,774 19 deficit
1877-78 with only nine Courts 16,849 45 deficit
1878-79 with only ten Courts 15,963 41 deficit
The difference between the deficit of this year and previous
years is owing to the increased number of Courts, the transfer
of the entire business and the tremendous volume of criminal
actions from which no revenue whatever is received and the
principal fact that the receipts of this office the past year from
civil actions, has been $10,611.50 less than that of the past fiscal
year as per report of Thos. H. Reynolds, June 30, 1879.
In presenting this Report, the undersigned the present County
Clerk, desires in justice to his administration to herein state that
this report under the law embraces receipts and expenditures
from July 1, 1879, to July 1, 1880.
The present term of office commenced last December. The
expense of preparing for the great change in the manner of
keeping the records of the office required by the adoption of the
New Constitution and transferring the business of the ten old
Courts (District) to the Superior Court, were of such magnitude
as to swell the yearly expenses of the office to figures far be-
yond its receipts.
The cost of transferring, printing new blanks, books and sup-
plies which were indispensible, to carry out the demands of the
New Constitution, were, by actual estimates made from the Au-
ditor's office, between fourteen and fifteen thousand dollars.
The amount for stationery printing is unusually large on ac-
count of said reason, and the expenses of the office are apparently
increased from the reason that materials ordered by the Superior
Judges direct, amounting to $4,000, and which were necessary
for properly conducting their office, have been charged to the
County Clerk's office direct.
This embraces a large number of law books.
REMARKS. 605
The expenses for clerical labor have been very heavy for rea-
sons given herein. The present force were all authorized by
Statute and after a careful recommendation by the Superior
Judges.
The records of all Declarations and Certificates of Naturaliza-
tion, since San Francisco became a city, have been duplicated.
They are embraced in over 100 volumes and number 90,000
pages.
This work was performed in order to preserve a complete list
of all naturalizations in duplicate in case of loss of original by
fire or other cause. The old records were in poor condition and
the duplicates, properly certified to under seal, will be deposited
in one of the fire-proof vaults of the New City Hall.
This work has been performed by lady copyists and although
it has taken months to perform the same and at considerable
cost, it was an absolute necessity and was performed after proper
consultation with and under the authorization of the Supervisors
and the Hon. presiding Judge, the late W. P. Daingerfield.
The expenses of the office should be met by proper fee bill.
There is no reason why this office should not be self-supporting.
The fees as charged at present are simply ridiculous. No differ-
ence is made in the value of an estate in the Probate Court.
Estates worth millions, such as the Hopkins and O'Brien estates,
are administered upon under the present charges for from $11 to
$13 Court charges, while the small property left by the husband
in the shape of an encumbered homestead for the wife must pay
the same to the Court. A proper bill should be presented to the
Legislature at the next session. It has been deemed a necessity
by the Judges, the expert of the Board of Supervisors, and it is
the only way in which this office can be self-sustaining.
The immense volume of criminal business engaging the ex-
clusive attention of two departments of our Superior Court at
an estimated cost the past year of twelve thousand dollars
charged against this office, has never been equalled in this city .
The immense labor performed cannot, owing to its character,
yield any income to the city and the charges on suits, estates,
etc., in other Courts should be so increased as to cause this
office to be at least self-sus.taining as in New York and other
Eastern cities.
606 COUNTY CLEEK'S REPORT.
The receipts of this office have not sustained the same since
1869.
An examination of the entire office as to its financial showing
has been made by Solon Pattee, Esq., Examiner for your Hon.
Board and his report will probably be in your hands before
this is submitted.
Respectfully submitted,
WM. A. STUART,
County Clerk.

their report of the management of the Parks and Avenue for
the year ending June 30, 1880.

are the drive or carriage approach to the Conservatory; the
