THE SAN FRANCISCO OALL, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1898. ALAMEDA COUNTY NEWS. LENA WELSH A AIR DIVORC An Elopement Ends in the Divorce Court. NO LOVE WITH POVERTY MARTIN WELSH EVEN TRIED THE COLD KLONDIKE. The Honeymoon Was Short and the Young Couple Separated as Boon as It Was at an End. Oskland Office San Francisco Call, %08 Broadway, Sept. 13. Another elopement has ended in the di- vorce court. Mrs. Lena K. Welsh, who tried wedded life for about a year, is once moére Miss Lena K. Palmtag. About a year ago Haywards soclety was startled by learning that a promi- nent member of the exclusive Entre Nous Club had become the bride of a young fellow around town. One day Welsh went to Ban Francisco with Miss Palmtag and they were married. When the young lady did not return in the evening her parents were organizing search parties when a telegram was celved telling them the horrible truth. The honeymoon did not last long, and to-day the story was told before Judge Ogden. Martin Welsh had not a penny, neither had he any business, but w content to take what little he could g *from his father to sustain himself. The young la soon returned to her home, and the two were practically sepa within a week of their wedding. Welsh is the daughter of one of wealthiest families in Eden Township, her father being an old-time and well-to- 4o brewer, whose sign is seen ail over the county When the Klondike fever broke out Welsh thought he saw an opportunity to lay the foundation for a fortune, and he went north. He only traveled as far as Skagway, when he became convinced t the climate was too cold for him, and he returned on the next steamer Mrs. Welsh tired of trying to induce her husba br. re- t the >ught suit for divorce, charging husband with failure to prn\idg, h Welsh did not _contest his wife waived ail el was given the custc her Youn, the suit, anc im of alimony, and of the little girl.

Partners Fall Out on Account of the Story Told by a Medium and a Warrant of Arrest Follows. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Sept. 13. The question of who is the proprietor of | & patent corset has led to the disruption | of a firm and to the issuance of a search | warrant by Judge Allen. The corset in dis- | pute 1s a clever arrangement, hard to un- derstand and harder to describe, but | which its Inventor, Mrs. Vermilyea, de- clares is worth a small fortune to her. She has also sworn that the constitution of this particular corset, which it has taken her years to perfect, has been stolen b{ a | Mr. Benedict, who,was for some time her partner. Thére is also &. romance con- nected with this dispute over the corset. Some time ago Mrs. Vermilyea was a | prosperous maker of corsets in Toronto, | Canada. The Canadian ladles took a reat fancy for the F:irllcula.r ideas that . Vermilyea put into her corsets, and he needed the services of sixty girls to turn them out fast enough. At this time Mr. Benedict became acquainted with the falr corset maker, and after she came to California Mr. Benedict appeared in Oak- and_the acquaintanceship was re- newed. She had money and started the | business and Mr. Benedict became a part- {ner. All went well for a time and finally they quarreled and Mrs. Vermilyea went to San Francisco, leaving Benedict to look out for himseif. This quarrel was partly the result of an interview Mrs. Vermilyea had with Miss J. ‘Dwyer, a medium of this city. Miss Dwyer confided to the cnrsu-m:neter that Mr. Benedict had consulted her on certain propositions. During the consultation Benedict, it is said, told the medium that his interest in Mrs. Vermilyea was purely a financial one, although he believed she was laboring under the delusion that he v\.\s| in love with her and intended to mar- ry_her. | A few days ago Mrs. Vermlilyea discov- ered that her late partner was infringin, on her patent. He had engaged some o ‘hor work girls and was making corsets on | his own account. This brought Mrs, Ver- | miiyea to the Police Court this morning. | She told Prosecuting Attorney Moore that | Benedict had taken from her some rolls of | silk, some corsets and various trinkets | and that she wished to recover them. She | was given a ch warrant, and with De- | tective Shorey she went to Benedict's | lodging and found nearly all the material | he alleged had been stolen from her, in | Benediet's trunks. The case will come up before Judge Allen to-morrow, and the corset-maker says that if Benedict does not produce other property of hers she will swear to & warrant charging him with larceny.

A NONSUIT MOTION DENIED ACCUSED ATTORNEY TRIES TO JUSTIFY HIMSELF. He Will Have to Defend Vicious Statements Made Concerning Attorneys Beatty and Francoeur. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Sept. 13. Judge Hall to-day denied the motion of Judge Murphy for a nonsuit In the dis- barment proceedings against Joseph Hutchinson brought by H. L. Beatty and George H. Francoeur. Respondent’s attorney offered the mo- tion on the ground that petitioners had failed to prove that Hutchinson knew the charges to be false that he made in Mrs. Gertrude Jones' answer to the suit of Francoeur for recovery of $600 on a note. In denying ihe motion Judge Hall remarked that there were certainly matters that Hutchinson knew to be false, and these he would have to explain. ‘‘He ought to have known upon reason- able inquiry what kind of a man Jones was,” id Judge Hall. ‘“He was spend- ing thousands of dollars to defend How- ard and Hulda Johnson, and yet he goes on and alleges that these people have formed a conspiracy to defraud Mrs. Jones.” This morning Witness H. L. Beatty de- clared that E. Norwood Jones was gullty of complicity In the Annie Johnson scan- dal only in that he furnished her money to procure medical aid, and he reiterated his belief that Jack Howard was the gullty one. Walter Kellogg, who has charge of the property interests of his sister, Gertrude Jones, testified that Jones came to him for money in January, 1867, saying that he was liable to be arrested for murder and that he would need funds. By way of explanation Jones told him that his servant girl had died and he was bein, connected with it. Jones told him he hac given Hulda Johnson $20 out of pure sym- {mlhy. andever since that time he had been the subject of blackmail. He wanted money to hush the publication of the st.l-{y, and if it leaked out to defend him- el Hutchinson was called to the stand in | his own behalf this afternoon. He ex- plained that he was one of the executors of the Kellogg estate and as such, to- gether with Walter Kellogg, signed all checks for money out of the estate or pald out by Mrs. Jones, one of the leg- atees. He averred that in May, 18§I, Francoeur showed him a note for $500 which Francoeur claimed was for attor- | neys’ fees in defending Howard, and had | asked him if the signature of Mrs. Jones was genuine. Hutchinson had immedi- ately questioned its valldity, saying that he would give his reasons for thls opinion at the proper time. Furthermore, that it was afterward found Francoeur and Beat- ty had charged double the fee they had eed upon. he case proceeds agaln to-morrow morning at 10 o'cloc] NEW ATHLETIC GROUNDS. Designs for an Elaborate Equipment for the State University Being Prepared. BERKELEY, Sept. 13.—The athletes of the University of California, and all the Berkeley collegians interested in college sports, are expecting that within two or three years the State University will have new athletic grounds, which will rival those of any college in the East. While curing their construction, the plans have all been made, and it remains to be seen whether college spirit or the munificence of the board of regents will carry them out. As the expense to be. incurred will amount to $25,000 the athletic associa- tion may have serfous financial difficul- tles to overcome, but at least some at- tempt is going to be made to put the plans through. The design submitted to the athletic assoclation ijs the work of Edward 8. Prouty, student assistant In civil engi- neering. The! provide for a three-iap cirider track, 18 feet wide, with a straight- away 220 yards long and 24 feet wide, the whole to be surrounded by a row of eucalyptus trees. No expense {8 to be spared upon the grand stand, which will cost alone, it is estimated, about $12,000. Within the Inclosure space is being al- lowed for football, baseball and tennis grounds, the football to be surrounded with two fences in order to prevent all Interference and inconvenience from on- “lookers. It is hoped that before very long the great intercoilegiate games will be played on college fields, and the adequate provision is made in the plans for ac- commodating the vast throng of people who always witness such events. The baseball and tennis grounds will be mod- eled after the best, and the work upon each will be executed under the closest supervision. It is estimated that fully 54,500 cubic yards of earth will have to be removed in the course of construction, and 1t is quite possible that the students themselves may assist in this part of the work. Sl . Zlect Officers. BERKELEY, Sept. 13.—The members of California have elected officers for the coming term as follows: President, Ralph T. Plerce; first vice president, Miss din; second vice president, Miss Fish; gecretary, W. J. Shaw; treasurer, R. W. Mpyers; sergeant at arms, L. 8. Kerfo executive committee—R. R. Grieve, W. N.

BERKELEY, Sept. 13.—The second of the series of interclass baseball contests at the University of California was play- ed upon the colleie campus this after- ‘noon. The victory easily went to the freshmen, who defeated their more ex- perienced upperclass meg. although it was the first time any of the men had played at the university. The score stood 17 to 10. ———l e The Stranded Actors. OAKLAND, Sept. 13.—The stranded members of the Martens Opera Com- K‘nny have found a guardian angel in rs. Barbara Allen of the Galindo Hotel.

SO SAYS SUPERVISOR BRITT BIDS FOR NEW CENTRAL STA- TION PASSED. Mayor Phelan Wants All Improve- ments Delayed Until the New Charter Goes Into Effect. “The Supervisors will retrench this year in many directions,” remarked Supervisor Britt yesterday. “Chief Sullivan of the Fire Department says that notwithstand- ing the fact that $6000 less is asked for by his department this year than -was awarded last year, there will be no op- position to a still further reduction in case it becomes necessary in order to keep the tax levy down to a reasonably low figure. The Committee on Fire and Po- lice, of which I am chairman, has to- day passed the consideration of the bids for placing a central fire alarm station in the City Hall dome. The matter was lald over fn order to see whether or not we can afford to go ahead with the im- provement this year. It seems probable that the project will be dropped for the present.” Supervisor Delany was not so sure that the citizens demanded a low tax rate. “‘How are we going to do all that the im- provement clubs demand if we do not raise the money?" he asked. Mayor Phelan sald ‘ithe whole list of proposed improvements uld go over until some future time. There really does not seem to be sufficlent necessity for permanent building operations just now, when the day is so near at hand when bonds can be issued for new construc- tions. Under the new charter the city will be permitted to bond itself for 156 per cent of the realty value, or about $52,000,- 000, This sum will be sufficlent to pro- vide for the City and County Hospital, the Mission Zoo, a new police station, ete. However, I think that the first con- | sideration after bonds are issuable is to expend $20,000,000 in securing a city wa- ter plant, bringing the supply from the | Sierra Nevada Mountains, and then we | can well spend $2,000,000 more for a city | lighting plant. After these items are, rovided for there will still be $30,000,000 eft for new buildings, parks and other permanent improvements. We can afford to walt until 1900 for these things."” A WOMAN ARRESTED. | ing an Ordinance. | OAKLAND, Sept. 18.—Mrs. Jane B.| Hassturther, the Socialist Labor candi- date, was arrested this evening for violat- ing the ordinance prohibiting public speaking on the streets within the fire limits without a permit. About 300 peopls were assembled at Tenth and Broadway, as it had been announced that Mrs. Hassfurther would risk being ar- rested. The speaker had merely stated that she was a member ot the Socialst Laber party because it Trecognized men and women to be equal, when Sergeant | Peterson informed her that she must de- sist. She replied that the constitulon of the United States is superior tq an Oak- land ordinance, but jumped from the wagon with the sergeant’s assistance, and offering him her arm she walked to the City Prison, where a bond was furnished and she was released. - Republican Club Entertainment. ALAMEDA, Sept. 13.—The Young Men's Hepublican Club of the West End will ive an entertainment at its new wigwam n the Neptune Gardens to-morrow even- ing, for the purpose of ralsing funds to defray the expense of erecting and fur- nishing the bullding. A very interesting programme has been prepared, consisting of athletic, gymnastic and acrobatic exer- ciges, vocal and instrumental music and speeches. Many of the party leaders will be in attendance and a large audlence is expected, as the nrogramme for the even- ing is exceptionally good. ADVERTISEMENTS.
