14 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, MAY 1, 1895. HER PORTRAIT IN COURT.. Theodore Marceau’s Wife In-| vited Her Friend to the | Gallery. | THEN A BILL WAS SENT HER. | | Some Rather Remarkable Expert| Testimony in Photographic Bookkeeping. i tiff's attorney presented the bill to and Mr. Marceau said “that’s right.”” They went together that Sunday after- noon and subsequently to look at the proofs and Mrs. Neil ordered some. S Miss Murphy was recalled and the lmg er scan and tell him what overcharges if any there were. She said it was nearly all an overcharge; that Mrs. Neil was charged with duplicates that she never received and also was charged $10 for some of the ictures that in other places in the same ill she was charged $5 for, and for which $5 was the proper price. In such a large bill she said it was always the custom to give reduced rates; with duplicates, in fact, there were often especially low rates; in fact they took what they could get and there was no ironclad schedule. d This closed the case. Judge Groezinger asked w! figure the defendant would ad- mit to owing. There was a consultation between the lawyers and it was agreed that judgment would be confessed for $50, the costs to be paid by the plaintiff. Mrs. Ida Neil of Fresno and this city— the Paiace Hotel being her address when | she is here—was the very chic defendant in | ceof the Peace Groezinger’s court yesterday in a suit brought by Colonel | Theodore Marceau upon a claim of $176i for photog: . Neil had denied having ordered such a great number of photographs and, indeed, of having ordered any, as orders go. The Jadge’s bench when the proofs of the photographs for which the defendant | LEAGUE OF?HE OROSS. An Entertainment Given at St. Bridget’s Convent Hall. TUnder the auspices of the League of the Cross Cadets an entertainment was given last evening at St. Bridget’s Convent Hall, Broadway, near Van Ness avenue, the lead- ing feature of which was an illustrated lecture by Frank T. Shea on the subject of “European Architecture.” Mr. Shea gathered a large number of THE PHOTOGRAPH FOR WHICH [Reproduced from one of MRS. NEIL REFUSED TO PAY, the exhibits in the case.] and her little boy had sat (or stood) were | offered in evidence was covered with pic- tures representing a great variety of poses and costumes. | The courtroom looked like a millinery | display of a spring opening, the defendant | being surrounded with lady friends. She | was altogether composed and at times amused. She was represented by Frank L. | Kingwell . Colonel Marceau had for | his counsel Messrs. Dunne & McPike. | They presented the bill and books and set up their claim of photographs ordered and | delivered. Mrs. Neil took the stand, arrayed richly and jauntily, an olive-colored cape, with elaborate trimming and a high collar, and a leghorn hat, with sweeping black feath- | ers, being parts of her costume. On _the stand she said that she knew | Mrs. Marceau before she became Mrs. Mar- | ceau; was present at the wedding; and on the day after the wedding, at the Ocean Beach Hotel, at Santa Cruz, Mrs. Marceau had invited her to come to the gallery | fn San Francisco and have her picture | taken, and that it would not cost her a cent; that she had accepted the invitation, and had a number of sittings one Sunday afternoon; that she ordered from the lot | three and a half dozen, which had been | delivered, together with four other larger pictures. This, she insisted, was all she | received. Miss Annie Donovan, who was em- ployed in the printing department of Mar- | ceau, testified that she met Mrs. Marcean in the hallway one day shortly after Mrs. Neil had been there. Mr. Marceau had just passed through the hall and Mrs. !Marcmu was crying. Miss Donovan asked what the matter was, and Mrs. Marceau said that Mr. Marceau had been scolding her for having invited Mrs. Neil there to have her picture taken. The witness testi- fied that Mrs. Marceau acted as Mr. Mar- ceau’s agent in many ways, directing the work in the office, etc. Plaintiff’s attorney to this testimony know the purpose of it,” he said. -‘They want to show that Mrs. Marceau goes out over the country inviting her friends everywhere to go to the gallery and have their photographs taken, and that when they accept the invitation Mr. Marceau sends a bill for the same. But that is not the kind of business | he is in, and it has not been shown by any other witness that Mrs. Marceau is an agent with Mr. Marceau’s consent. “Why,” continued the counsel, “Mr. Mar- | ceau was married on the 9th of July, 1891. In August this defendant came to his studio. It is impossible that she could ! have known of any instance where Mr. Marcean could have consented to do work upon his wife’s word.” - “On the other hand,” said Judge Groe- bjected strennously zinger, “can you show that Mrs. Neil or- } dered these pictures?’’ The witnees and those following were cross-examined to show this point, but without results. Miss Minnie Murphy, who wasemployed | in the delivery department at Marceau’s, testified that she delivered only three and one-half dozen pictures to Mrs. Neil. said it was Marceau’s rule and instruction to his receiving clerk to “collect the full amount upon receipt of an order when possible,” and where that was not to get as much as they could. Miss Ethel Cohn, who lives at Fresno and the Palace Hotel also when in this city, was the next and most important wit- ness. She is a very pretty young lady and was with Mrs. Neil on the ‘occasion of the | picture taking aund appeared in some of | those that lay on the Judge’s bench. She said that she, with her mother, vis- ited Mrs. Marcean at the Ocean Beach Hotel on the morning after the wedding to congratulate her. Mrs. Neil was there and Mrs. Marceau extended a general invita- tion to them to come to the gallery and bave their photographs taken, saying, “It will not cost you or your friends a cent.” Shortly after, while they were still talking together, Mr. Marceau came downstairs and joined them, and Mrs. Marceau re- marked that she had just invited these la- dies to come and have their pictures taken She | views while on a recent tour of Europe and from this collection his selections were made for last evening’s talk. The youniz- sters found the occasion a most enjoyable one and were especially pleased with the stereopticon slides dealing with comical ubjects, with which the more serious studies were interspersed. The cadets were in uniform and the entertainment was one of a series which will be given from time to time under the auspicesof the organiza- tion, which is doing a splendid work in the cause of temperance. 1N 00D FATTH, HE SAYS, E. B. Ryan of the Southern Pacific Company Talks on Taxes. Why a Large Sum of Money Was Refused by the State Controller. E. B. Ryan, tax agent of the Southern Pacific Company, gave his opinion yester- day why the State Controller refused to accept a large sum of money tendered the State by the Southern Pacific for taxes on | railroad property. He said in very direct language that he believed the money | would have been accepted had no attor- neys got Into the case. A letter from the Controller was received by Mr. Ryan yesterday, as expected. It was as follows: CONTROLLER'S DEPARTMENT, % STATE OF CALIFORNIA, | SACRAMENTO, April 29, 1895. | _E B. Ryan, Esq., Taz Agent, Southern Pacific | Company, San Francisco— DEAR SIR: 1 hereby acknowledge the tender, through the National Bank of D. 0. Mills & ., of §180,612 83, in payment of the second installment of State and county taxes upon an alleged reassess- ment of the Central Pacific Railroad and Southern Pacific Railroad, made by the State Board of Equalization for the year 1887, Acting upon the advice of the Attorney- General and Messrs. Langhorne & Miller, of special counsel, 1 decline to accept the pay- ment and to order same into the State treas- ury, for the reason that the Supreme Court of this State has declared the original assessment of the Central Pacific and Southern Pacific railroads for the said year of 1887 to be valid, and has given judgment in favor of the State for the face of the taxes under the original assessment, together with penalty, interest, | costs and attorney’s fees. Respectfully, E. P. CoLGAN, Controller. | By W. W. DouGLAS, Deputy. “For the last thirteen years,” said Mr. Ryan, “a great many people have been very emphatic in their desire that the Southern Pacific Company should pay its back taxes. With that end in view the company paid the entire taxes on the re- assessment of the years 1880 to 1885, both inclusive. In November last it also paid the first installment of the taxeson the reassessment of the years 1886 and 1887. Saturday last we paid the entire second installment for 1886, which was accepted without protest, and we also sent the sum | of $180,612 83 to pay the second installment, which was the entire balance due on the | assessment for 1887. “My experience in this tax department for the last twenty-three years has been and is that wherever a lot'of lawyers get their hands into our tax matters, which almost universally occurs, we are ham- pered in every way in trying todo just what they demand. Many times in the eighties 1 have carried thousands of dollars to different county seats to pay taxes flat as they were assessed and levied, and have received an answer to the effect that it was necessary to consult with Mr. Blank or Messrs. Blank & Blank before the officials could receive a dollar of taxes, as they, Blank & Blank, attorneysat law, had a percentage mortgage on it, and so the money came home.” Highest of all in Leavening Power.— Latest U. S. Gov't Report Ro . Q@. Powder ABSOLUTELY PURE | logg of the university announced that the UNIVERSITY FUNDS SHORT. The Regents Informed That There Will Be a Deficit of $12,000. RESIGNATION OF PROFESSORS. Additional Teachers Were to Be Asked For, but the Report Was Withheld. The board of regents of the university met in special session in the Hopkins Art Institute yesterday afternoon, Regent Phelps presiding. Leon J. Richardson tendered his resig- nation as istructor of Latin in order to visit Germany for two years to complete certain studies. A proposition to allow him to absent himself for that period without pay was defeated and the resignation accepted. 1 E. B. McGilavrey, instructor in English, also tendered his resignation. It was ac- cepted and Walker Morris Hart was chosen to fill the vacancy. A resolution of thanks to those who had subscribed for the purchase of the Crossley thirty-six-inch lens, so that it might be placed on Mount Hamilton, was adopted, and the secretary was instructed to send a copy of the resolution to eack subscriber. Regent Phelps reported that the com- mittee on sites had authorized the prepar- ing of the site on which the new telescope isto be erected and asked that the action of the committee be ratified. This was done. 1t was announced that in all probability the lens and dome would be sent from New York transportation free, and it was suggested that Herman Oelrichs be com- municated with with a view to securing its free transportation across the Atlantic. Two gifts of books, one from the King of Siam and one from Mrs. M. C. McDonald, were acknowledged. The history of the university prepared by William Carey Jones, it was announced, was ready for delivery. The publisher suggested that the regents purchase 500 copies at a cost of $2500. The matter was referred to the finance committee. It was suggested that copies of the work be sent to various institutions of learningin the East and in Mexico and South America. Among the effects left by the late J. C, Wilmerding were forty-six bonds of the Los Angeles Consolidated Electric road, in which the university is interested, as the regents are to receive a considerable sum of money from the estate. The regents were asked to sign an agreement by which the bonds could be converted into other bonds of the same company. This was re- ferred to the law committee. Regent Hallidie of the finance commit- tee made a report by which he showed that at the end of the next year there would be in all probability be a” deficit of from $12,000 to $14,000 in_ spite of all the scaling down that has been done. The revenue, he said, which would be reduced by non-acceptance of the railroad taxes, would amount to §298,90540. He said that the university was in straitened financial circumstances, and could not see any way at this time to meet the deficiency. Regent Bartlett suggested that a yearly tuition fee of $50 from each student might be exacted, the first of such fees to be col- lected a year from next August. Regent Slack, in an undertone, said, “I shall oppose that.” * Several members spoke on this matter, but no action was taken. President Kel- next regular meeting will fall on the 14th inst. and the meeting preliminary to the commencement would fall on the follow- ing day. He suggested that the regular meeting be postsoned until the next day, which was agreed to. The meeting will be held in Berkeley at 10 o’clock in the fore- noon. The secretary was instructed to send an urgent request to each regent and a special one to Governor Budd to be present. Regent Marye stated that the committee on internal management had decided to recommend a number of increases in seve- ral departments in which more teachers are needed, but in view of the report of the finance committee he would be forced to withhold all of that portion which in- creased the expense account, with one ex- ception. He said that he deeply regretted this course, as many more teachers were required. He then recommended that E. B. McGilavrey be appointed instructor of the department of philosophy and that this department be ufiowed §°,00 more than last year; that Instructor Magee be made director of the department of physical culture and that several reappointments be made. The recommendations were adopted. An appropriation of $250 was voted in favor of Albert Sutton, architect. He is to go with Dr. R. Beverly Cole on a tour of inspection of institutions in the East, with a view of obtaining suggestions for the building of the affiliated colleges. For this sum he is to furnish suggestions, drawings and photographs. TO AVOID ACCIDENTS, A New Streetcar Fender Invented Which Has the Merit of Sim- plicity. ‘What appears to be a mechanical con- trivance of considerable merit has just been invented by J. K. Smedley of this city, formerly an engineer in the naval service. The invention is a car-fender, or guard, and, as will be seen from the illus- tration, its merit depends to a great extent upon its simplicity. The arrangement is attached to the front of the truck by a couple of braces. There is an elliptical, Side View Showing Cable-Car Fender. slotted spring to keep it in place, so that it will not ride over or crush any obstruction, a feature which seems to have been over- looked in many of the inventions submit- ted. The slotted spring allows the mech- anism perfect freedom to drop. The front fender possesses a rubber edge and any ob- struction upon the track is caught, raised from the ground and made to fall into a wire network arrangement, extending the whole width of the car, twelve inches high and sixteen to eighteen inches to the front. The invention has been submitted to local railroad engineers of repute, who have reported favorably on its merits. A JAP'S MOTHER-IN-LAW, She Was Only Adopted, but Served the Purpose Nevertheless. Judge Morrow and the Prosecuting At-| torney in the United States District Court were treated to a surprise yesterday. A Japanese named Matsutaro was cn trial for landing women in the United States for immoral purposes. The evidence against him seemed to be very convincing, and the Jut}fi:‘s charge was against the prisoner. e jury retired and fifteen Baking AL minutes later returned with a verdict of “not guilty.” Clerk Manley paused a moment in astonishment, and addressin, the foreman in a puzzledtone, asked, ”Dig you say ‘guilty?’”” *‘No, sir,” was the answer, “I said not guilty.” The jlp was released and his friends es- corted him in triumph from the court. Matsutaro brought hig wife and mother-in- law from Yokohama. Itwas proven that the mother-in-law was only nine years older than her daughter, but” the prisoner got over that by saying she was only an adopted mother-in-law. ————————— IN STRANGE WATERS., An Admiralty Case Being Navigated in the Superior Court. Judge Sanderson and a jury are tryinga case that is unfamiliar in the Superior Court. It is the action brought by one C. J. Jorgenson against the Union Insurance Company to recover $2000 insurance on a policy covering risks of the steam-schooner Acme for one year from May 21, 1889. At- torneys Daniel Sullivan and Charles Heg- gerty are for the plaintiff, and Page and Eels for the defendant company. It seems that on July 1,.1889, the schooner in question was wrecked and totally lost on the northern coast of Cali- fornia, but when approached with proof of loss the defendant company refused to pay the .$2000 insurance. There were several grounds for refusal, chief among them being that the vessel was engaged in a wrecking expedition, whereas, it was claimed that it should not have been em- ployed, under the policy, in any other than purely commercial business; there was some question as to how the vessel came to be wrecked, and still more doubt as to what constituted the wide term of *‘perils of the sea,’”” as contained in the or- dinary risks of a policy. All these points were brought out in the arguments yesterday for and against anon- suit. Finally Judge Sanderson denied the nonsuit, acknowledging his unfamiliarity with the cha.acter of the case, but express- ing a desire that some of the nautical knots might be presented jointly to him- self and a jury to untie. The case will go on to-day. WITH CAERA AND TRIPOD A Record of Happenings in Local Amateur Photo- graphic Circles. An Invention of Great Sclentlific Value—Soclety Folk Snap- shooting. The unsettled weather of last Saturday and Sunday was the means of putting a stop to two long-anticipated outings of the members of the California Camera Club. On Saturday the knights of the camera were to have made a trip on the bay iu search of picturesque marine snapshots. The rain, however, literally put a damper on this project, and at the last moment the proposed cruise in the Caroline was abandoned. Fearing a repetition of the weather’s misconduct, it was also deemed advisable to postpone the outing arranged for Sunday of the bicycling annex to the club. It is hoped, however, that early dates will be set for both excursions. The most important event in photo- graphic circles that can be chronicled this week is undoubtedly the invention of 0. V. Lange, one of the crack San Francisco artists. In conjunction with Walter E. Magee, instructor of physical culture at the State University, Mr. Lange has de- vised a means of scientifically photograph- ing the human figure by means of an ar- rangement of ruled chart backgrounds. The experiments have been extended over a period of many months, and it is saia that the invention will revolutionize the physical culture departments in all uni- versities. It is proposed that students be photographed on entering the University and at stated intervals thereafter. As an aid to the science of ‘‘Anthropometry,” Mr. Lange’s invention is thought to be of great importance. This evening a lecture and demonstra- tion will be given at the rooms of the California Camera Club by A. B. Post on loss surface Ilo paper. The lecture will Eeein at8 p. M. sharp. H. B. Hosmer has recently been ob- served on the water front with his camera. The versatile lieutenant is said to be an admirer of those ‘‘who go down to the sea in ships” and of the ships themselves. Hosmer is turning out some beautiful cloud studies. The many friends of Miss Green will re- ret to learn of her mishap with the flash- ight compound called Blitz-Pulver. This ardent lady amateur was severely burned about the hands by the explosive, but is now well on the way to a recovery. C. F. Cormack, the genial secretary of the Camera Club, is said to be ‘“dead” to hotography and its charms. The bicycle has supplanted the camera in his aifec- tions. 0. V. Lange is showing some beautiful %Pecimem‘ of his heliogravure process. he results resemble steel engravings, and for softness cannot be excelled. Society folks have lately taken up the astime of amateur photogrn{my, 1s. B. W. Hopkins is said to be really clever with the hand camera, Miss Ella Hobart takes her instrument along on all her outing trips, and has been successful in turning out_some pretty view work. Sam Hub- bard Jr., a prominent society man of Oak- land, is preparing for a_photographic trip through Arizona. A. D. Ayres makes a specialty ot pictures of horses. W. B. lfsnt, an old-time photographer, is again showing well to the fore. Howard C. Havens, the mining man, is doing good work with his camera, as are also R. P. Hammond and Henry Stull. The latter is a famous artist, who_devotes his talent to painting horses. Lawyer J. A. Hall finds time to carry a camera with excellent results. 4 Dr. George K. Frink recently entertained the inmates of the Magdalen Asylum with a stereopticon lecture. 3 The United States fishboat Albatross is fitting out for its annual photographic trip to the sealing-grounds. The views taken are used by the Government for purposes of comparison as to the increase or de- crease of the seal tribe from year to year. O0UPON PHOTOGRAPHS. The Police Receiving Complaints From All Over the State. Numerous complaints have recently been received at police headquarters, both ver- bally and by letter, regarding agents of photographic galleries, who have been so- liciting business by the coupon process. The customer is induced to buy a coupon for 50 cents, and on presenting the coupon at the gallery and paying $2 more, he is supposed to get an enlarged photograph and a dozen cabinets. The customers complain that when they £o to the gallery they are forced to buy a picture at an exorbitant price or lose their deposit of 50 cents, if they want their photographs, This they denounce as an outrage. o People in the country hayve an additional grievance. - After paying the 50 cents for a coupon to the agents and communicating with the gallery represented, they have re- ceived replies that no such person was au- thorized to act as agent. Some of the pseudo agents have been re- alizing a handsome income_by selling cou- pons at 50 cents each. The police say 3"' are powerless to interfere in the mat- T. ———————— Sparf’s Last Chance.

Considerable discussion has been pro- voked by the report of the British Royal Commission presented in Parliament last week upon the use of opium. Over 720 Witnesses were examined by the commis- sion, including 152 called at the desire of the anti-opium society. Itis stated that every - care -was taken to obtain representative testimony, and great reliance was put in the statements of 161 medical students. The cable specml_ to the New York Sun says the re- port will astonish many people, especially in America. The report states: *‘Opium- takers of fifteen to twenty years’ standing appeared before the commission. They believed the habit had done them good. Their appearance and vigor satisfied the Commissioners at all events that it had done them no perceptible harm.” The conclusion was: ‘“Opium is harmful, harmless, or beneficial, according to the measure and direction with which it is used.” Dr. E. S. Wemple, when seen at his offices yesterday at Sutter and Stockton streets, said: ‘“This report is at least a badly worded publication, calculated to encourage the fiend. The opium or mor- vhine habit is the most pernicious to which a human being can become ad- dicted. This is doubtless especially true of the people of the United States who tax their nervous systems so enormously.” . Dr. R. W. Rogers, when asked his opin- ion of the report, replied: *I regard it as a most dangerous statement, used as news- paper information, however valuable it may be to the profession. The danger lies in the effect it will have upon the mind of the young physician and the layman. Such a report from such a source will have the tendency to do away with the very wholesome fear that now exists with re- gard to the use of opium or morphine. That opium can’ be used except under cir- tain abnormal conditions, of which the physician is the best judge, without dele- terious effects I do not believe, and I con- demn as a physician the dissemination throth the public press of such informa- tion.” Dr. W. E. Fitsher, resident physician for many vears at the William A Ham- mond Sanitarium at Washington, D. C., and late surgeon of the United States army, when approached said: **This re- port has awakened unusual interest in the public mind, and deserves the strongest condemnation from the reputable phy- sicians. I notice that in connection with the report an interview with Sir William Roberts is published, in which he observes that opium does not-appear to beget any disease. The best medical authorities of the world will concur with me in the state- ment that the opium habit is a disease, and that a cure for it would be a blessing to the human family second to none.” When asked what prospect there was for the medical profession to offer an antidote for the opium or morphine habit, he con- tinued : ‘‘After an extended observation of four years with hundreds of opium and mor- phine cases, having watched the course of three such cases which were treated with a remedy called “Soteria,” by Dr. J.C. An- thony, whose offices are in the Chronicle building, from whom this antidote em- anates, and having successfully treated a brother physician myself, I can truly, without exaggeration, say that ‘“‘Soteria” is the only antidote and specific for the opium, morphine and cocaine habits that removes the desire and cures the pa- tient, all medication as well as the craving for the drug being removed with a week’s treatment. It is the most wonderful spe- cific yet discovered. I shall continue to use it in my practice, and can recommend it in all confidence to my brother ]}wlh si- cians in the treatment of the opium habit. The opium problem with which the British Royal Commission has been grappling is solved by ‘“‘Soteria,” the value o? which the press should be only too glad to dis- seminate. A NEW RAILROAD. To Run Thirty Miles to Tap Coal Deposits. John Treadwell, Robert D. Fry, E.B. Pond, J. Dalzell Brown and Brodie M. Bradford have filed articles of incorpora- tion of the Alameda and San Joaquin Railroad Company. The objects of the corporation are to build and operate a railroad, standard or narrow gauge, or both, in the counties of Alameda, San Joaquin and Contra Costa. The estimated length of the proposed rail- road is thirty miles, and its route is as follows: Commencing at or near the coal mines of the San Francisco and San Joaquin Coal Company in township 3 south, range 3 east, M. D. B. and M., in Alameda County, and running thence in a general southeasterly direction through said township 3 south, range 3 east, and thence in a general southeasterly and northeasterly di- rection through township 3 south, range 4 east, M. D. B. and M., in San Joaquin County, and thence in a northeasterly and northerly direction lhrou%h township 3 south, range 5 east, and township 2 south, range 4 east, M. D, B.and M., by the most practicable route to a convenient point on the San Joaquin River. in township 1 south, range 4 east, M. D. B. and M., and near the dividing line between San Joaquin and Contra Costa counties. The amount of the capital stock is $500,- 000, of which §30,000 has been subscribed, each of the five directors having contrib- uted $6000. e The Japanese begin building their houses at the top.
