4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY; MARCH 6, 1895. GHARLES L. FAIR OPENS AN OFFICE IT ADJOINS THOSE OF KNIGHT & HEGGERTY, HIS LEGAL COUNSEL. FORCES ENTRENCHED IN LAW. MCENERNEY WINS A POINT—BOTH HEe AND PIERSON CLAIM ADVANTAGE. Judge Slack overruled the demurrer to the filing of the supplemental petition of the executors of the Fair will yesterday. The supplemental petition, which tells the story of the stealing ‘‘or abstracting” of the will and which offers a certified copy of the document and proof of the con- tents of the will, is therefore allowed to go in. In this the counsel for the executors win the first point in the preliminary skir- mish. Did any of the attorneys for the heirs file a contest of the will? No. Did they repeat once again with empha- sis that they intended to file a contest of the will? Oh yes, indeed, with great emphasis, as though it were this time for the cigars. Did they say just when they would file the contest? Certainly not. Would you have the lawyers commit themselves? Not in a hundred years. Were all the great army of learned lawyers present? Qertainly; every one. ‘Why were so many lawyers ;{,raesene just to hear the Judge deliver a verbal opinion on a preliminary motion ? The lawyers think this is a very impor- tant matter—to them—and they must have it in evidence that they have earned the fees that they expect to collect as thisthing goes along. ‘What will they do now? Well, they will meet again in Judge Slack’s courtroom next Saturday morn- ing. Mr. McEnerney, not satisfied with hay- ing his supplemental petition and certified copy of thewill allowed, asked the court yesterday to authorize a copy of the stolen will to be substituted in place of the lost original. The motion was made under sec- tion 1045 of the Code of Civil Procedure, which says: “If an original pleading or paper be lost the court may authorize a copy thereof to be filed and used instead of the original.” Accompanying the motion and as ngart of it was another certified copy of the stolen_will, made by County Clerk Haley the day the will was filed. The motion was made upon the affidavit of Harry Piper, chief deputy, to the effect that the will was stolen between the 25th and the 25th days of January Jast, and that every endeavor had been made to recover it without success. This was done for several reasons, doubt- Jess. One was because George A. Knight of the counsel for Charles L. Fair had said that the other side never alleged that they had tried to recover the will; also that they had used the words ‘‘stolen or ab- stracted,” which left a doubt as to which it was, or something of that kind. An- other reason was the desire of Mr. Me- Enerney to cover the situation in as many Ways as possible, and perhaps another was to keep up the excitement.aud give the gentlemen this chance to gather together again. Will the contest be filed, them, next Saturday ? Oh, no; theg will simply argue—Mr. McEnerney in behalf of this move and Mr. Knight and Mr. Heggerty and Mr. Wilson and Mr. Wheeler against it. Mr. Pierson and Mr. Mitchell and Mr. Rogers and Mr. Paterson, who are attorneys for the other heirs and the executors, will be present and may make remarks in an undertone to each other by way of showing an interest in the case sufficient to entitle them to large sums of money when the division takes place, but they will not talk to the court. Why? W Because Messrs. Pierson & Mitchell, who were the original counsel for the executors and who drew the will over which the threat of contest hangs, are still opposed to Mr. McEnerney’s attempt to straddle the situation. Did net Judge Slack’s decision yesterday - admitting the supplemental pefition de- monstrate that McEnerney was right about it, and, therefore, heal the breach between these two eminent lawyers who are ex- pected to work together ? On the contrary, the decision sent them flying in opposite directions. The breach has widened and deepened. Both are en- tirely pleased with the judgment, and each declares that it sustains him. Mr. McEnerney points ont_the fact that the opposition was overruled and his peti- tion admitted, and cries “It is enough! I am vindicated!” Mr. Pierson smiles coldly and reads the language of the court, ** ‘It the supplementary allezation as a basis for the introduction of secondary evidence is unnecessary, no motion to strike it out has been made. For these reasons the etition is overruled.” Ergo, had there en a motion to strike out it would have been stri tion i ‘Will it be impossible to reconcile the dif- ferences between these great lawyers? By no means. Do not worry about them. Will Mr. Knight and Mr. Heggerty and Mr. Wheeler and Mr. Wilson make a mo- tion to “‘strike out” the supplemental peti- tion, as is indicated might go with the court? Rest assured of it. They will not lose a point. If the court drops any other hints suggesting further possible arguments or delays they will assemble in their great numbers before him and make them. When will the contest be filed, then? Heaven alone knows. Has not the court fixed a day for the ar- gument of the petition for probate ? Oh, yes; that is the 18th of March, at which “time it might be expected of the alleged contestants that they must fish or cut bait. But you know how artful and resourceful these lawyers are. When they wanta large share of a large estate they get it, don’t they? Just so, also, when they want more time they will get it. Are the lawyers for young Mr. Fair, who wants to break his father's will, pleased with Judge Slack’s decision yesterday ? No, they are not pleased. Are they very angry and do they swear? Oh, no; they have very little to say. They are thinking. Cannot Mr. Knight be induced to say anything with his loud voice? Nothing at all. Xominq? Oh, well, yes; he saysthey intend to con- test the will.- Has the firm of Knight & Heggerty moved lately ? Yes, they have moved from the top floor of the Chronicle building down to the fifth floor, where there was a larger suite of rooms and where another room could be had adjoining their offices. This adjoin- ing roomn has also been rented. ndeed? By whom? The name of Charles L. Fair is printed on the door. ) Goodness. Mr. Fair has taken rooms next his lawyers, then, just as Mr. Good- fellow_and the executorsof the will have taken Mr. McEnerney to themselyes. That does look like some law business, does it not? Rather. Well, then to get back to the case. If the supplementaf tition with its certified copy of the will is finally admitted, will it overcome the necessity of proving the con- tents of the lost will, ‘which was declared < by Mr.* Haggerty in the CaLL a few days ago vo be sucgu a difficult task? Mr. Heggerty thinks not. He saysthat the simple methods of probating a pro- duced will are out of the question, because the witnesses to Mr. Fair's signature can- not swear to a document that does not bear his signature, and of the contents of which they knew and know nothing. They will have to prove the contents of the wiil by two credigle witnesses as provided in the procedure for lost wills, and it is to bring them to that conclusion that the preliminary skirmishing is done. What does Mr. Heggerty say about Mr. McEnerney’s statement that the lawyers had seen the will after Mr. Fair's death and before it was filed, and were therefore competent witnesses as to its contents? He dismisses it with a wave of the hand, inquiring: “How can they prove that what they saw was Mr. Fair’s will? That is the very point!” He exclaims: ‘“There never has been any paper probated as or proven to be Mr. Fair's will. A paper was stolen from the County Clerk’s office which they say was his will, They must prove that it was. So far as known Mr. Mec- Glauflin and Mr. Whittell, who saw him sign it, are the only two competent wit- nesses to the document. They know nothing of its contents—only the signa- ture, wfiich has disappearea with the docu- ment.”’ Does it not look as though there would be trouble about this matter one way or another? Well, yes. ‘What was the exact langnage used by Judge Slack in overruling the demurrer yesterday ? The Judge said: Iam strongly of the opinion that the court, having acquired jurisdiction to establish the will as a produced will, did not lose jurisdic- tion to establish it as such by the fact that it 'was subsequently lost or stolen. I do not think that the supplemental petition can reasenably be construed into & petition for the probate of u lost will, which petition would, to say the least, be unnecessary, notwithstanding ~that the prayer of the petition does use language found | in section 1340, Code of Civil Procedure, but the petition is to be construed as the allega- tion of & fact occurring since the filing of the original petition as 2 basis for the introduction of secondary evidence of the contents of the will. If thers be a doubt as to the purpose of the petition there is no demurreron the ground of uncertainty in this particular, and if the supplementary allegation as & basis for the in- troduction of secondary evidence is unnc sary no motion to strike it out has been made. For these reasons the demurrer to the supple- mental petition is overruled.” JAKE RUDOLPH IN PRISON. HIs BONDSMEN DECLINE TO BE LONGER RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS APPEARANCE. JAKE Says THAT His ENEMIES ARE TRYING TO BREAK UP THEIR FRIENDSHIP. Jake Rudolph has raised a storm about hisears by his threatening to kill Chris Buckley, and the tempest began to make itself manifest yesterday. Buckley and Maurice Schmitt, who were his bondsmen in connection with the Elliott assault to murder case, notified Judge Low yesterday morning that they desired to be relieved from further responsibility for Rudolph’s appearance. The Judge at once issued a bench warrant for Rudoiph’s arrest. Detective Seymour, who had been look- ing for Rudolph since last Wednesday, happened to see him on Larkin street be- tween 12 and 1 o’'clock. Seymour did not then know that the bench warrant had been issued, but asked Rudolph to go with him to police headquarters. Then he learned about the bench warrant. Rudolph was taken to the City Prison, where Seymour searched his pockets for a gun, but he was unarmed. Judge Low raised the prisoner’s bonds from §5000 to $6000. “I don’t propose to allow- this man,” said the Judge, “to go around making threats to kill people. %f he should kill ‘anybody I would be placed in a nice position. I am informed that he has threatened to kill Chris Buckley, and, since Wednesday last, the police have been lookinfiior him. Besides, when his case was called in my court last Thursday he failed to make his appearance, and I don’t propose that such a thing shall occur again,” Rudolph was visited by a number of friends of both sexks yesterday afternoon and last night. Some of his male friends gave him the assurance tnat they would work hard to procure his release on bonds. “This is a fine position my enemies have laced me in,” said he, last night, with itterness in his voice. *‘[ have never said, thought or dreamt of injuring my best friend, Chris Buckley. I may have my faults, but I could = not be coward or scoundrel enough to think of deliberately shooting any man, much less one who is blind. For the many years that Buckley and I have been the closest iriends I have never by word or deed betrayed his confi- dence or done anything to lead him or others to think that I could possibly hurt 2 hair of his head. “His mind has been poisoned by a few feo le who are jealous of our friendship. t has been done maliciously, but I have the satisfaction of knowing who they are and if I could only see Buckley [ would soon disabuse his mind of the idea that I intended or thought of harming him.” Being pressed as to who the people were that he referred to, he said: ‘“Well, Mrs. Doran is one, and Tim McCarthy, her father, is another. These two have evi- dently determined to break up the friend- ship between Buckley and myself, and there are others besides myself who know the reason why. I need hardly say that she had no cause whatever to warn Buckley that I would kill him. 4 “It is not true that there has been, or is, any trouble between Buckley and myself about money matters; nor is it true, as has been stated, that I have been a regular frequenter of late of the ‘cocktail route.” I came here about the middie of last Decem- ber, and only on two occasions since then have I drunk anything. Inquiry along the route would prove the truth of what I say. ‘“There is no use in again going into my family history, as it should be well known by this time.” I can say truthfully that T never intentionally wronged any man, but being little have had to defend myself and generally got the worst of the deal. Mr. Eiliott’s'case was an exception. He knows, however, that I had nodeliberate intention of shooting him, and I don’t think, in the circumstances, he will press the case against me. Besides I was not in my right mind then and was not responsible for my actions. This seems to me like persecution on somebody’s part. “If my friends are unable to_get bonds- men for me I will put up $3000 cash to- morrow, as I have no desire to remain in prison till my case comes up again.” ———— Sentence of @ Murderer at Salinas. SauiNas, Cal., March 5.—Judge N. A. Dorn to-day sentenced H. M. Shaw to life imprisonment at San Quentin for the kill- ing of Eugene Mason last November in the southern vportion of this county. The jury brought in a verdict of murder in the second degree. L. Lasano was also sentenced to twenty- five years at San Quentin for assailing Mrs. Piazzoni last October near Salinas. ————— Tacoma Honors Douglass’ Memory. Tacoma, Wash., March 5.—The colored citizens of Tacoma held memorial services to-night in honor of the late Frederick Douglass. In the resolutions of respect passed it was suggested that the colored people of America erect 8 monument to Douglass in Washington City. —————— WHOOPING-COUGH, croup and hoarseness are efficaciously treated by Dr. D.

Thev are sober, har -workin§l and saving. They marry young and then rough it. They accumu- late doilar by dollar, and are ever ambi- tious to own their homes, which ambition they frequently realize, and end by making good citizens. & iy The future merchant often begins his career bg’ gathering wood from the refuse of the builders, and selling it for a few dimes to the people of his own class. Out of the very smallest returns he will en- deavor to put something aside. The fruit market will always turnish him a free lunch. A few appFes and a crust of bread, the latter seasoned with a clove of that little vegetable that is stronger than onions, and the fruit for dessert, with a sunny door- way for his resting-place, amply fill the sum of his simple wants. . At night a friendly country woman will give him shelter, for which he will light the fire in the morning and furnish the fuel himself. Sometimes the youthful toiler forms a partnership in the{msiness of wood-gath- ering with a little signora, and they divide the profits, the loaf and the apples. The girl is just as sturdy and industrious as the boy. Moreover, her sex gives her the advaniage, for while the male gleaner may be driven away from the building, the car- penters and workmen will permit (such is the influence of a fair face) the girl to load her sack from the pile of broken lumber. Not infrequently the serious romance of life is begun in this association, and the girl becomes Mrs. Romeo, when not much older than the love-sick maid of Padua. Among those children of the poor exist the jealousies and acrimony found in the aristocratic West. The child of the rich grocer will turn up his disdainful nose at the hope and joy of the street-laborer's household. The Jatter, with the hot blood of his Southern parentage, is prompt to resent any slurs upon his birth or personal appearance, and a scratching match, for tge Latin quarter is backward in pugilism, is often the delight of the lazzaroni who bask on the sunny side of the alley. In regard to cleanliness, the denizen of the Latin quarter is not always particular. The laboring man’s horse is a greatand valued assistant to the bread-winner, and he is always well cared for. He has as warm a home under the general roofas any member of the family. In many houses the stairs for the horse is side by side with the stairs for the family. The love for music, the predominant passion_of the children of Italy, is oiten exemplified in those little wood-gatherers, whose innate longing for the artistic life in an hour of weakness overcomes the neces- sity of packing the heavy sack. Then the grimy score of an opera, mutilated ang torn, is taken from the ragged pocket, and the embryo prima donna forgets every- thing elsein her araent study of melody. Nor are those efforts always in vain. Some of Italy’s best singers have sprung from the people, and the Latin quarter of San Francisco contains potentially the genius which may some day soar to fame and fortune. This divine spark is quickly recognized in the Latin quarter and is cherished and encouraged by loving, gen- erous souls. TOPREACH HOME INDUSTRY. CLERGYMEN SAY THEY WILL HELP THE MANUFACTURERS' ASSOCIATION CoMMITTEE WORK AFFECTED BY NoN-DELIVERY OF MAILED INVITATIONS. Many of the ministers will preach next Sunday on the subject of home industries, although it may not form a theme for ser- mons. They will help the Manufacturers’ Association in developing a movement for the commercial prosperity of San Fran- cisco as far as lies within their power to stimulate public opinion, and all because a prominent manufacturer suggested yester- day that the el menofall city churches take up the subject on Sunday’s addresses. The suggestion was made at a meeting of the Manufacturers’ Association convention committee, and to carry it into effect at | such short notice the press was asked to notify the preachers. Bishop Nichols was asked for his opinion as to how the suggestion would be re- ceived by the Episcopal clergy. He said they would be only too willing to assist the cause as far as they could, and had no doubt that the subject would be men- tioned in Sunday’s sermons. ‘It is rather late now, however,” he con- tinyed, “to make it the theme of addresses on Sunday. Most of our clergymen have their sermons in preparation, while some have taken up a series of discourses. There are special sermons for the Lenten season also. Still, our ministers can take up such special subject, and I have no doubt they will do so when requested by the associa- tion of manufacturers, if not next Sun- day, certainly the Sunday following.”” ev. Mr. Dille said he is preaching a series of sermons, but will be g%nd to men- tion the matter incidentally and speak encouragingly upon the movement. *‘It means a great deal to the workingman by benefiting him, and is a subject we can take up and discuss in the pulpit. How- ever, it may not be convenient to preach about it next Sunday. The subject re- quires some thought and investigation, and if there is no particular hurry it might be well to postpone it for another week. There certainly cannot be any concerted action taken next Sunday, for the reasen that the ministers are engaged even now with their sermons for that fay." _Mr. Barnett of the manufacturers’ asso- ciation stated that permanent committees of the convention will be named to-day. “Reports that are encouraging continue to come in,” said he, “and the movement seems 1o be growing to a greater extent than was at first anticipated. The hour for calling the convention will be decided on when those committees are appointed. ‘“There seems to be a Erevailing opinion among manufacturérs that the committee will send out more invitations to the con- vention. We sent out several thousand in- vitions with 2-cent stamps on each, but we have positive information that a great many sent out were never received b those to whom they were addressed. { don’t know where they could have gone to, nor where the faultlies. Something is wrong somewhere. I cannot understand why the invitations were not delivered. “‘As the invitations mailed did not reach their destinations, we want the manu- facturers of the State to take notices in the press as invitations. Notification of the first meeting will be given through the press, and we hope tgat manufacturers will take notice of 1t.” THE BARBERS' UNION. Election of an Employment Secretary. His Duties. At the special meeting of the Barbers’ Union held last night there were four can- didates for the office of employment secre- tary. There was a long discussion on the right of employers to vote in this matter, as they are but honorary members, but it appearing that by a vote at a grevxous meeting they were accorded all the privi- leges of members President Klitsch ruled :)h‘l!f tthey might express their choice by allot. Out of fifty-six votes cast Hugo Scheun- ert received forty-three and was declared elected. The committee appointed at the previous meeting presented a set of rules to govern the employient secretary. These provide that the secretary shall receive all x;fi})lics- tions for positions and impartially fill such positions so as to best subserve the interest of employer and emplo{e: that he shall keep a record and present the same at each meeting of the union, and that ne shall be allowed $1 as a fee for securing a steady po- sition for an applicant.

IS A NOVEL POWER-WHEEL.| How APOLINARY BIENKOWSKI LABORS THROUGH THE EVEN- ING Hours. Apolinary Bienkowski thinks that Paul Monaco, inventor of the airship, an ac- count of which was recently published, will have to consult one of San Francisco’s newsboys before he can safely start his machine and drift away into the clouds. The reason for this turn of affairs is that the newsboy in question, who The Bienkowski Power-wheel. [Sketched by a “ Call” artist.] is Apolinary Bienkowski himself, has invented and patented a propelier wheel with oscillating blades for purposes of power in air and water exactly on the same principle as the power-wheel which Mr. Monaco has placed on his ship. Bienkowski’s patent is dated May 1, 1894, and is numbered 519,220. It fully covers all the principles of power and motion which constitute the cardinal points of advantage in the wheel used by Monaco. Captain Wolff of the German army, who built an airship model in this city last year, also made use of the wheel and prin- ciples patented by the inventive newsboy. | Bienkowski says he does not want to make | trouble for any one, but he has fully made up his mind to protect his rights, and he has intimated 183( it would be well for all inyentors who desire to use his invention to come and see him before they are too | one with their labors. . Bienkowski is an energetic and far W Fig2 - Another View of the Power-wheel. [Sketched by a “ Call” artist.) much-thinking individual. In the day time he sells the daily papers and gets around the street corners in a lively man- ner on one wooden leg and a sound one. At ttight he devotes his time to mechanical inventions in a little room at 274 Minna street. A clear idea of the invention in question can be had by studying the ac- companying engravings. Figure 1is a side elevation of the wheel; figure 2 isa vertical cross section. The ob™ ject of the invention is to provide a wheel aving vanes or fans which are adapted to turn or feather at certain voints in the revolution of the shaft, so that at one por- tion of the revolution the vanes are pre- sented with their facesin the direction of revolution and at another part with their edges in this direction. This device is ap- plicable either as a_wind_or water wheel to which the power is applied to revolve it, | orit may be used as a fan by applying | power to it. 3 | © The operation of the contrivance is as | follows: There being, as represented in | the present case, four vanes upon the shaft | two of these vanes will stand transversely | to the axis and the other two will stand in | a plane passing through the longitudinal axis and at right angles with the other two. | If these vanes are to be acted ugon to rotate the shaft it will be manifest that the | current of air or water in which the wheel | is submerged so that the current moves at | right angles with the shaft or axis will act | upon those vanes which are parallel with | the shaft, while those that stand trans- versely will present the edges and will not be acted upon. TSED MORPHINE AND LEAD, How A YOUNG GERMAN GROCER COMMITTED SUICIDE IN GOLDEN GATE PARK. DESPONDENT AND TIRED OF LIVING. A FAREWELL LETTER AND POSTSCRIPT. A young German named Charles Heil- berger, who had been employed in the grocery-store on the corner of Sacramento and Dupont streets, committed suicide in Golden Gate Park yesterday afternoon. The place which he chose for his death was Chicken Point, and he made doubly sure by first swallowing the contents of a bottle of morphine and then perforating his heart with a bullet. It is known that he left his residenge at 706 California street yesterday morning, but he said nothing to any one about l)a't'- ing suicidal intentions in bis mind. Itis evident, though, that he had made up his mind to end his earthly career, by a letter which was found on his person. 1t reads, translated, as follows: Many persons in this world are unlucky. Everything they take hold of with all good will goes against them. To that class of people I belong. Ihavea right to call myself lucky be- cause I am educated, but still the world itself and its dealings are against me, and without account I will kill myseli because my life is miserable. I was not any betier or any worse than any other man, and so 1 hope that God Almighty will give me his grace, and not sen- tence me too hard. CH. H. This was written with ink.

SacrameNTo, March 5.—Laird of Modoe succeeded in getting his coyote scalp bill reconsidered in the Assembly this after- noon, and it passed. He canvassed the House, and the members were forced to confess that his claim was a just one. ‘When they came to look into the matter of his changing his vote on the scalpers’ bill, they saw that he had acted as he did in order to get a measure passed for his constituents. They therefore brought the bill up again. Cutter of Yuba wanted the appropria- tion cut down from $275,000 to $150,000. His motion was lost, the House deciding that_they had better appropriate enough and if there were any over after paying the claims let it go back into the treasury. The bill was again put upon its final passage. This time there were only four- teen votes in the negative. All those favoring the bill from principle voted for it as a matter of course. The railroad con- tingent was also in line to a man, and in consequence Laird found himself with eleven votes to spare. Peat enjoys certain antiseptic qualities.
