32 CALFORRANS VW YORK Huntington Has Occupied His Fine New House. WRITERSMAKING MONEY Mayor Carlson of San Diego Re- visits the Scenes of His Youth. WHAT THE HORSES ARE DOING On the Whole the Representatives of the Golden State Are Having a Good Time. NEW YORK, N. Y., May 29.—There are several Californians here, who -are oc- cupying a generous portion of Broadway and outlying settlements. Take Mayor Carlson of San Diego, for instance. He is registered at the Astor House, where he sleeps, but it is nevertheless true that he dines in some of the little French restaurants around the basements along Nassan street. At times ne goes into the small. coffee-joints, climbs up on a stool, and takes his revast with the kids. “And why not?” he exclaims, arching his eyebrows. “I would not consider my | visit here complete if I could not live my boyhood days over again. When I wasa youngster here and New York was more or less of a village I used to frequent these baunts, and as a matter of fact, right low down, I haven’t had so much fun since.” It takes a great deal of pressure to get him into one of the parksor out in the resi- dence quarter. He seems to scent the delights of the past only in the neighborhood of Wall and Nassau streets, and there he can generally be found. It may be timely to say that Mr. Carlson is here principally to work up a railroad scheme centering in the right of way he has from Sait Lake to San Diego. He will probably get back to the seaboard in time to run agsinst Congressman Bowers for Congress. 1f you driit a little further up Broadway you can find J. D. Hanbury, who has just | 1eturned from London, where he has been laying wires to sell a gold mine. He spends a great deal of time with his rail- road friends, and a bevy of them can always be found around him at the Union- square Hotel. He will leave for home in a few days. Mrs. Elizabeth Berkmeyer, residing on Versailles avenue, Alameda, is shottly to_ have issued a novel from the publishing | house of F. Tennyson Neely. Mrs. Berk- meyer is the author of *‘The Lost At- lantis,” published some two years ago. Detectives Seymour and Whittaker of Captain Lees’ brigade have arrived to see how traveling agrees with forger and draft- raiser Dean, who was detained in New York recently to await the coming of these two gentlemen. Mr. Dean was not par- ticularly anxious to linger here, but Chief Conlon convinced him that Seymour and ‘Whittaker were good fellows and worth any amount of waiting for. While since their appearance here they see a good deal of Dean it is not true that they are taking in the town as a trio. Seymour regards the Raines law and the proposition of closing refreshment pariors at midnight as class legisiation, and admits that he is outclassed. Both of the detectives went down and took a Jook at Bartholdi’s statue of Liberty Enlightening the Worid. They think she would. be in better business on Goat Island, smiling on San Francisco and Oakland.

Society is not a little surprised here at Mrs. Phoebe Hearst's giving up her pro- posed trip by special train to Moscow to witness the coronation of the Czar. Tue lady had invited Minister Bayard and his family to join the party, but the diplomat, * for some unaccountable reason, could not accept the invitation and the trip was called off. _James Moffittof the paper firm of Blake, Moffitt & Towne of San Fraucisco left to- day for Europe on the Campania. He will join his family there and after remaining for a few of the summer months will re- turn to California and business. Miss Viva Cummins, the talented dangh- ter of Ella Sterling Cummins, well known to California literature, gave an Oriental costume concert last week at Friendly Hall, 31 East Thirty-first street. It was well attended by both New Yorkers and Calitornians. ‘Will M. Clemens, formerly of San Fran- cisco, appears in four magazines for the month of June, and Califorma writers generally find a good market here for all kinds of literature. o UpRET e e e e .

Huntington ever comes across the shades of his old enemies in what prattling and superstitious people are pleased to call his “*haunted house.” The railroad king was reluctant about finally making it his permanent abode, but as he has permitted his two larze feet to guide him around in its several halls and adjoining rooms without encounter- g have been the best shoppers have ever ex encourage us. record.

At 6 o’clock Friday night Judge Coffey rendered his decision in the estate of A. P. More of Santa Rosa Island fame. This decision makes it necessary for John F. More, the administrator, to ac- count for about $60,000 worth of proverty belonging to the estate. It was the administrator’s second annual accounting, and the contest’ thereover has occupied the time of Judge Coffey for the last thirty days. A petition for the removal of John F. More, as administrator, has been filed and will come up next week for action. John F. More is the sole surviving brother of the late A. P. More. There were originally six brothers. three of whom, A. P.,, T. Wallace and H. H. More. came to the State in 1850 and in- vested largely in Santa Barbara and vicin- ity. One of their purchases was the island of Santa Kosa—the subject of much litiga- tion—valued at $1,250,000. The. story of A. P. More’s Iife and the litigation which followed his death has been told in THE CALL. The decision of Judge Coffey means the administrator, John F. More, must account for §60,000 worth of property, and that the petition for his removal, signed by all but two of the heirs, will be pushed with renewed enerzy.

Johnson, an Uncle of the State Printer, Takes His Own g Life. ‘W. P. Johnson, an uncle of the present State Printer, was found dead in his bed at 1049 Mission street yestesday morning. All indications point to the death as one of suicide. Johnson came to this City about five months ago from Sacramento, where his wife and family continue to reside. He secured a position as collector for a lum- ber company, and for a while seemed to prosper. He was suffering from lang trouble, and in consequence aroused the sympathy of Mrs. Kattschmidt, at whose home he secured a room. Some weeks ago he lost his situation, and last week made a brief visit to Sacramento. n Wednm':s he returned apparently much depressed. He shunned all ac- quaintances, answering such queations as were addressed him in short but sourteous tones. Yesterday morning Mathew Allen, a roomer at 1049 Mission street, while passing through the hall detected the odor of emanating apparently from Johnson's room. In the company of Mrs. Kattschmidt he entered Johnson’s room. The latter was lying on the bed partly dressed, and from the chandelier a steady about July 1. [Reproduced from the drawing of J. V. Knoth, the architect.] stream of gas was flowing. Death had evidently occurred some hours before, as the bedy was almost rigid. The dead man left no statement as to his reasons for committing suicide. Save 30 cents in change and a newspaper clip- ing containing a poem entitled “Don’t t the World Know That You Are Down” nothing was found on his person, State Printer Johnson has been notified of the suicide and the body will be held by the Coroner, subject to the order of either the wife or nephew. POLICE PISTOL SHOTS. Distribution of Medals to Officers Who Made Fine Target Records. ‘When the police assembled Friday even- ing at the City Hall police station Lieuten- ant Birdsall in an appropriate address com- plimehted them upon their progress and success as marksmen with the pistol. He stated that when the new pistol range in the basement of the hall was fixed up there were more poor shots on the force than there were good ones. Now the case is the reverse. = It afforded him great pleasure, Le said, to present to Smith Carr the zold medal for lk?n‘ the best shot with 8 pistol on the force. Officer Carr’s average ‘was 28 9-12 hits out of a possible 30, The medal is a beautiful piece of work- manship. Carr is justly proud of hi trophy. He is one of the best pistol shots on the coast as well as of the police force. Officer C. E. Fennell was the winner of the silver medal, his average being 27 21-25 outof 30. W.D.Scott was justly proud when presented with the bronze medal, his average being 27 11-24 out of 30. Dennis Hayden carried off the special gold medal presented by Captain t- man for having mszde the greatest im- provement in shooting since the compe- tition began in October. His first six scores were 38 points out of 180, and his last six were xflm of 180. Special men- tion wus made of four other officers who had made excellent progress. These with their first and last six scores (possibls 180) were: Henry Clancy, 68-150, ¢. H. Her- ring, 59-135: D. Ryan, 36-156; William Armstrong, 70-129. NOT A FELONY. The Mars Jury Insists Upon Light Sen- tences for the Striking Lathers. After being out for thirty hours the jury in the Mars case again entered Judge Belcher’s court at 3 o’clock yesterday and returned the same verdict which the Judge refused to accept on ‘the previous day. The case was that in which James Holmes, William Waitz, Neal Collins, William Starr, William Dowling, W. Mec- Coy, D. Dunn and J. D. McRae, members of the Lathers’ Union, were on trial for murder in the killing of C. A. Mars. The place during the lathers’ strike, about three months ago, on Fourth and affair took Welch streets.
