Mortoza Exonerated. OAKLAND, Nov. 8.—The result of the Coroner’s inquest into tue death of Mrs. Annie Mortoza at Jennings Landing, near San Leandro, Wednesday last, has re- sulted in the complete exoneration of the dead woman’s hustand irom any blame, despite the fact that aimost the entire Portuguese community believe that he was responsible in a moral sen: Tue jury after a deliberation of about fen minuies returned a verdict that death was caused by pneumonia. The case unas worked up considerable | excitement among the Portucuese, and | there was a verv large attendance at the | inquest. Mortoza was present, but left | betore the verdict was returned. Deputy | District Attornev H. T. Melvin, who was present, said, in discussing the case: I'iere is no law which would hola a man for the death of his wife from pneumonia, superinduc:d by a cold brought on by be- | ing locked out at night.

They fail to or will not see any- thing artistic 1n the many changes re- cently made in Ciinton Park, and declare that the alleged transforming of the piace into a thing of beauty is an outrage for- ever, The matter was brought to a crisis when the Board of Public Works d-cided to add a enhouse to the park. This was too much, and public ofiicials and private citi- zens have issued a smgli library ol pro- tes:s, J. W. Evans, ex-president of the Board of Education, respectfully requesis that the “improvements’” be undone and the park restor:d to its former beauty. He says the residents have submitted to the vandalism till the park is ‘“a conglomera- tion that is an eyesore” because they did | net want to hurt the gardener. H. L. Haelke writes that it is “‘an insult to the eve of the person of cuitivated tastes.” Mr. Huelke must have gone to a dictionary to help out his protest, for be dceclares that a *‘border of mesembri- anttemum has been substituted for grass.” He jumps all over the fountain, ‘meither classic nor rustic, but grotesque.” He says that “'when it comes to the plant- i of luchsias into the ends of sewer pipe we simply commit the unpardonable sin. Miss Carrie A. Whelan is almost hys- terical in_her vrotest. She says: “We | have struck agamnst turther spoliation of our park. Some time ago we heard that Mayor Davie intended to make it the fin- esipark in the city end then we began to worry.” Miss Whelan says that they have borne with the fountain, the ‘‘deco- rated-arch’’ mama, the ‘‘queer summer- house with a sky-b ue ceiiing,” but to put a greenhouse there is oo awiul 10 contem- vlate. “Spare us,’”’ she cries in a dozen | different keys. Miss Whelan thus criti- cizes the fountai “T'he Jess said shout this improvement and the curly-haired and blistered Indian maiden in the center, who supnorts a huge wire-cage affair on her head, the better.” Rebert D. Jackson, who was once & mis- sionary to the Chinese, ba< seen some very zrotesque architecture in his day. He compares the artistic summer-house to *a green-slatted chicken barn.’ He says the impression one gets when he en- ters the park is that he isin a cemetery; hereviles the fountain *‘with a snag finish ihat looks like a pottery acvertisement,” and concludes with anearnest prayer that they mav be sjarcd from the fHliction of a hothouse. Under the circumstances the Board of Works bas decided that the greenhouse shail not be erected till the sentiment in the neighborbood has been thoroughly expressed. WIDOWED AT FIFTEEN, Romance ¥uds With Death of the Hero. OAKLAND, Nov. 8 —In a cozy home at 1404 Commerce street, in East Oaklana, a little bride but three months older than 15 years mourns for a loving husband wiiose body lies at the Morgue. The unhappy woman is Marie Fernan- dez, and her grief is made more poignant by the fact that her brave husband, who 1s but 22, is to be buried in he potter's field. August Fernandez was a hero, and his brave act of rescuing a drowning man about two months ago is what has led indirectly to his death, 1or on tbat occa- sion he contracted a cold which deveioped into pneumonia, to which he succumbed yesterday. Fernandez was married last July to Miss Silve., a young girl whose niother was in destitute circumstances, He heard of the case and his kind heart prompted him to relieve the necessities of the family. The woman was named Siva, and when he had seen her and her cailaren pro- vided for he wedded the 15-year-old daughter, whose love he had won. Fernandez was then working on the river boat- and was doing wetl. His mar- ried life was a happy one and no thought of the sorrow which now enwraps his loved ones entered the minds of the happy couple. The assistance which her son-in-law gave her restored Mrs. Silva to heaith and to-night she mourns with her daughter. The little money which the young couple saved was spent during the sick- ness of the breadwiuner of the family, ana there is nothing left with which to pay for a funeral, so Fernandez wili be buried by the county. Fernandez saved four lives during the past year,and one of his most prizel possassions was a gold medal given him by the Humane Sociely for savinz Mr- Miicheli and her boy from death by drowning in the bay *dme montns ago.

Dr. Dodge Says There Is Money for Water, but None for Bread. Money for the Health Deparfment Used for Salaries— Another Boulevard Declared. Indications are that the Board of Su- pervisors will soon close to the traffic for which they are n w used all of the streets where the social evil flourishes. Super- visor Sheeban’s resolution closing Quincy and St. Mary’s streets, at the instauce of the priests of St. Mary’s Cathedral, came up for consideration 2t yesterday’s meei- ing, and Supervisor Smith offered an smendment inciuding Bacon place. Objection was made to this, on the ground that the board shou'd consider well before acting, and that Bacon place had not been investigated. T e resolu- tion, as originaily proposed, was finaily adopted, and then Supervisor Sheehan offered another resolution closing Dupont street from Bush to California, Bacon place from Pine street to 1ts southern ter- mination and Berry street from Grant avenue east. The resolution was referred to the Committee on Public Morals. Supervisor Dodge pitched hot shot into the comps of tie Boards of Supervisors and Heaith when the subject of placing eigut new hydrants, advocated by the Fire D:partment Committee, came up. The doctor grew earnest over the matter, and in objecting to the hydrants ex- claimed: This board has voted $36,000 more for water '0or municipal purposes ihis year, but it hus no more money for bread. The inmates of tue City and County Hospita are suffering for want of proper medicines and pouristment and yet the money is not furnisbed. All the time new hy- arants are being vlaced and the money that shou:d be spent for bread is u-ed up.”’ Supervisor Dodge’s attention was called fact thut the Heualth Department to the had been granted $20,000 more than was originally 1ntended. “That makes little difference,’” said the Supervi or. “Itall goes into salaries, and Ido notbelieve thatihe department would aivert any of the mouey to the hospital if it could.” The hydrant matter went over for a wer The Jndicia: for indefinit of properiy-owners carpet-beating, renovating and works be restricted to certain d The recommendation w. s adopted. On motion of Suw: sor Britt the Mayor's veto of tiie 1esolution permitting the Fire Department to purchase an en- gine lot was referred to the City and Ccuaty Attorney for his opinion as to the leg o1 such a proceeding. The toliowing ordinances were finally adopted: Providing for the use of ster- ilized ~wabs by physicians in cases where there is any suspicion of diphtheria; pro- hibiting merchants and others irom con- ducting gift enterprises in connection with the sale of goods; imposing a mu- nic:pai license on guides in Chinatown; tmposin a license on mask balls. Supervisor Dodge brought up his mo- tion for a reconsideration of the resolu- tion appointing John I. McGovern as ist- ant Prosecuting Attorney of Police Court 4, vice W. J. Gleason, removed, The res- olution was adopted by a vote of 710 3. Supervisor Britt introduced a resolution that was adouted, declaring vacant the position of City Hall gardener, now held by W. P. Sullivan, and appointing Dennis Coleman to tue plac I'he vote was as foliows: Ayes—Devany, Haskins, Shee- han, Morton, Britt, Smith, Rivers. Noes— Delany, Dodge, Lackmann, The order declaring Steiner street, from Golden Gave avenue to Fulton street, and Fu ton street, from Steiner to Baker, a public boulevard, was finally passeéd. A resolution cbanzing the names of a large number of sireets was sent back to tue Street Committee for investigat on, because of the fact that city officials and properiy-owners had protested against the changes. The committee on brakes and fenders was ordered, on motion of Bupervisor Britt, to render a report at an early date.
