There Is Not Likely to Be Any Con- test to the Suit Just Brought. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Feb. 1 Divorce proceedings were flled to-day by Lillian A. Marsh against her hus. band, F. Marsh. This is the outcome of a secret marriage that occurred some months ago and which was kept secret until the beginning of this year. Mrs. Marsh was formerly Miss Lil- llan Snyder, and having met a fash- fonable young fellow who was well known in gambling circles, although his connections were unknown to her, they went to San Francisco after a short acquaintance and were married by Judge Bahrs. The same afternoon Mrs. Marsh returned to the home of her brother in East Oakland, and since that time she has never met her hus- band. She was greatly surprised to discover his reputation, and deter- mined at once to be free from him as soon as possible. Special Treasury Agent Harris of San Francisco was appealed to for evidence regarding Marsh’s transactions that would substantiate a suit for divorce, and he had no difficulty in providing ample material to satisfy Mrs. Marsh's attorneys. It is not known at present where Marsh is, but a few weeks ago Agent Harris said he could produce him at There is no probability, to the suit. Defense Will Be Outlined To-Day.

Ex-Judge Frick made vigorous objec- tion to the introduction of some evidence, but the court permitted it to go in. From | the indications of the cross-examination | of the State’s witnesses, it would appear | that the defense would be largely based | on technicalities.

OAKLAND, Feb. 1.—The bursting of one of the bags of gas connected with a stereopticon apparatus caused a fire and a small panic at Thomas Hall in East Oakland to-night. No one wvas hurt, and the damage to the stage was slight, but for a time the prospect was good for a lively blaze, and the confusion among the crowd threatened to lead to serious con- sequences, A lecture with views was being given, and toward the close the accident oc- curred. There was a loud report, followed by a blaze, and the audlence at once be- came excited. Thomas Hall will hold about 500 people, and it was well filled. As soon as they recovered from the shock of the explosion the audience moved toward the doors, and for a few moments it looked as though there might be a serlous accident. An alarm of fire was turned in, and the ringing of the bells, added to the excite- ment, created a belief that the danger Was greater than it was in reality. The | lecturer and some assistants proceeded to fight the fire, and had about succeeded when the chemical engine arrived. The damage to the apparatus will not be heavy. THE OMAHA EXPOSITION. Steps Taken by Local Business Men to Have the State Properly Represented. The committee appointed from the State Board of Trade, Manufacturers’ and Producers’ Assoclation, Chamber of Commerce, Merchants’' Association, San Francisco Board of Trade, Miners’ Asso- ciation and kindred organizations met yesterday afternoon to discuss the rep- resentation of the State at the Omaha Exposition, but nothing deflnite was ac- complished. A communication was read from the managers of the exposition, giving the | State 100 square feet of space to present | a mineral exhibit and a concession on all additional space required at the rate of 75 cents a square foot of ground floor | occupied. The matter of the cost of giving a min- eral exhibit in conjunction with a display of the products of the several countles of the State was discussed at length, and it was the opinion of those present that ' a display as contemplated could not be made_for less than $20,000, and that on consideration that there would not be any charge for transportation of the goods either way. After discussing the matter for two hours, it was decided to empower the | chairman, A. A. Watkins, to appoint a committee of three to ask the Supervis- ors to make an x\tppropriat(on: to ascer- tain the amount of space required and, if possible, give a joint exhibition with the county of Los Angeles, which will be represented at the exposition, and defin- | tely learn from'ihe raflroad officials on what terms the exhibits may be taken to Omaha and back again after the fair. Chairman _Watkins npgolmed Mayor Phelan, J. W. Kerr and John T. Bell a committee to promote the affair and so- licit outside assistance. FORESTERS’ TROUBLES.

Ward, chief ranger of Court Washington 7913, Ancient Order of For- esters, swore to a complaint in Judge Conlan's court yesterday for the arrest of Charles Wetzell, financial secretary of the court, on the charge of embezzle- ment. . ““Wetzell has been financial secretary for the past six years’” sald Chiet Ranger Ward, “and we had so much faith in him that we did not require him to glve security. We now find that for the last two years he has been collecting dues from members and appropriating the money. We have asked him to bring his books to_the lodge meetings, but he re- fused. He has deposited no money with the treasurer since October 4, and we have the books of from twenty to twen- ty-five members from whom he collected dues since then. He would go to the members’ houses at all hours of the day or night to collect dues from them. The total may reach $400 or $500, but we can’t tell until we get possession of his books."” —— ASSYRTANS AT WAR, Abraham Rahy of V;ictoria, B. C, Charged With Uttering Forged Instrument.

Copyists Alleged to Be Assessed for Nearly Everything on Earth. STARTLING DISCLOSURES. Two Versions of Why a Phaeton Was Not Bought—Glynn Says «Blackmail.” Now comes J. G. Maloney again in response to the answers made to the charges he has filed against Recorder Glynn, and after denying the fact that | any of them are tenable, proceeds to stir up the pool of trouble worse than ever by making a few additional charges, some of them of a drastic na- ture, “I had not intended to say anything further in this matter,” he stated yes- terday, “‘but am forced to do so by the way in which the former charges have been met. I know well that all the odds are against me, and that every device will be resorted to in order to | place me in a false light.” After explaining that he was in no wise ungrateful for what Glynn had done for him and the alleged fact that he did not discover his double "deal- ing until long after this letter referred to by the Recorder, he proceeded, in substance, to make ‘the following charges: First, that in 1895 the Recorder gave all the copyists what was called fund | work in order to raise money to ex- pend in his re-election, and that when it was ruled that the Recorder would hold over for two years in common | with others the only explanation forth- coming of where the money went was that it was used in fighting the case before the Supreme Court. - Secondly, that in the same year it was decided to make the- Recorder a- present’ of a phaeton, harness,’ and other accessories, and ‘that he (Ma- | loney) was one of those who .took a paper round among the copyists get- ting subscriptions of $10; that - Mr. Glynn was supposed to know nothing of this, but. when it was. learned that he had gone to Studebaker’s and picked out one worth §250, objection was made | and Mr. Glynn was presented with a music box costing $100. Thirdly, that in 1897 twenty copyists put in $6 each for one month, and something for the second month, and the deputies also contributed money toward the boulevard and carnival fund, buf the carnival was. . dropped and only the sum of $100 was given to the boulevard fund. - | Fourthly, that all the copyists were assessed for a charity rungd, but that no money was ever drawn out of this fund, and when the- solicitors for char- itable undertakings came round they had to go to the men and ask them to contribute personally. Fifthly, that four others, in addition | to Maloney, were permitted to ‘square” themselves by having additional work given them in the month of Jan- uary. Sixthly, that at his (Maloney's) so- ! licitation and on account of his politi- | cal power a friend named Piercy Hen- | derson was placed in the office as uzp uty at a salary of $150 a month, but that Glynn complained that Hender- son was paying a Mr. O'Connor $25 a month for getting him the place, trou- ble resulting that ultimately ended in | Henderson being “fired.” | Seventhly, that the copyists were permitted to use certain print books in which the names of the corporations for whom they were printed were erased and others substituted, a dan- gerous practice according to Maloney and one that will not stand in law. In addition, there¢ were other charges of a minor nature. : Mr. Glynn was very angry yesterday when he heard that Maloney had pre- ferred additional charges. 'He said: “This looks to me like a case of blackmail. This man is acting like the ungrateful ingrate that he is, and will not dare to take oath to any of his statements. In the first place, he | has never been in a position to know the least thing of what he has been talking about. Any man who has been before the Grand Jury and caught in a lie like Maloney has ought to go slow.” The charges preferred by Maloney against Glynn were then given the Re- corder in question form and he an- swered them severally as follows: “I did not levy any assessment for election expenses. The boys held a meeting and assessed themselves for the primaries. I know no more of it than that Maloney was given some of the money to spend and that nobod. knew whether he did it or not. E “T dldn’t tell him or anybedy -else | that it cost anything to fight my case | before the Supreme Court. That is as black a lie as any he has told. “I went to Studebaker’'s when I heard the boys propesed to et me a phaeton and when I learned that.it would cost $500 I positively refused to have them get it. Then they wanted to give it to my wife and I would not stand for | that either. Maloney was the very man that started the thing. I let the | boys get me a music box for a Christ- mas present because it was much cheaper. “Not one copyist was aware that we | were going to give anything to the boulevard fund and when i the office | contributed the sum of $100 they were all surprised. “Money was paid out of thecharity fund for many things and principally charged to ‘cash.” Maloney knows this. “Only one other man besides him was ever permitted to ‘square himself’ by getting extra - work. Maloney was worse in the hole than any. “Henderson was not discharged ' for | the reason that Maloney states. I be- lieved Henderson when he told me he | was giving no money to O’Connor. Ma- loney was the man to blame for the discharge. “As regards the print books, we did erase certain names. It was perfectly regular. For instance, the German Bank has mortgage blanks that the California Title Insurance and Trust Company used to use when it gave mortgages and assigned them to the German Bank. They would use the bank prints and erase the name with red ink, substituting their own. We | . {and I shall- make him sorry he ever would take.them to volume 1138, an old German form, and make a record in the same way by using the German Bank prints and erasing the name and | making substitution in the same way, thus making a true eopy-of the. origi- nal. This will stand any law on earth,’ “I want to say here that after I helped Maloney out of his- fix his wife came to me crying and had not seen him for some time and had been: given no money. ‘I gave her a'warrant on’| the broker for $40 and sent-him word that in future he must cash warrants for the wife only. ; “Maloney also.sald In' his former charges that the trouble between him and myself was owing to the fact that he would not support Dimond’s candi- dacy as against Phelan’s for ~Mayor. Yet four months after the fight for the Mayoralty was over he-sent me the letter saying he was so glad I was.a friend and asking for assistance. This is ‘not all T know about him by half dared to try to defame m .ner.” b : 3 TO KEEP THEIR DIB’J.‘B.ICL'I‘ST School D!rc’ctéts Pi;nming an Im- provement in ‘the Depart- ment. The question of distribution .of scholars among the varfous public schools has be- come a serious one with the Board: of Education, and steps are being. taken to arrange the ‘matter in ‘a more satisfac- tory manner. - The popularity of eertain schools has caused them to be overcrowd- ed in_some instances, and the plan now is to keep scholars within their own dis- tricts and compel them to attend school in the ‘institutions nearest ‘their . resi- dences. g The classification of pupils:so ~as " to make comparisons with “the schools of other cities will also be looked into, and much benefit in the matter of improving the course of study is expected from this source. § —_—————————— TO ATD A CHURCH.
