ATTORNEY GENERAL’'S RULING MATTER IN BILLS SIGNED NOT APPROVED BY LEGISLATURE. L ey The Auditing Board Will Also Go Out of Existence if Mr. Ford’s View Is Sustained by the Supreme Court. e gl Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, May It is regarded here as certain that the Supreme Court will shortly be called upon to decide whether the office of the Commissioner of Public Works has any legal existence, a claim disputed by Attorney General Ford. The latter, in an opinion filed with State Controller Colgan, holds that the office of Commissioner. of Public Works termin- ated on March ' 1, 1899, and thereafter ceased {o have any legal existence. torney General Ford observes that the bill as signed by Governor Gage had incor- porated in its provisions which the Assembly had sought to add 1o the bill, namely, the raising of the sal- continuation eclause, but from which amendments it had receded. The Attor- ney General maintains that the bill as sembly. The question which now arises is, if the office of Commissioner of Public Works is abgelished, what is to become of the audit- ing board to that Commissioner? At- torney General Ford had been asked by State'Controller Colgan to give an opinioi: on that feature of the question also, but | he neglected to do so, and the State Con- troller has sent a second request for an expression relative to that point.

E. Moss, a Missourian, Murders : mits Suicide. JOPLIN, Mo., May 25.—In and near a tent in the southeast part of town to-day were found the dead bodies of J. E. Moss, his wife, an infant child, a girl of seven years and a boy of nine years. The heads of all save Moss had been mashed with a hammer. He had a bullet hole in his head and still clasped a revolver. He had apparently killed his family, then com- mitted suicide.” The motive is a mystery. The tragedy is believed to have occurred on Wednesday night while the family were asleep. The woman was in a nightdress and had evidently been killed before she could make resistance. The girl lay on a cot near her mother, the boy was stretched across two chairs and the body of the father and husband, partly undressed, sprawled on the ground. The infant, its head severed from the body, was found outside the tent, where the dogs had dragged it. The bodies were partly decomposed. Neighbors living within 200 feet of the tent knew nothing of the tragedy till to-day. A shot was heard Tuesday night coming from the direction of the tent. but no investigation was made at the time. Moss had made his living scraping ore about the abandoned mines, and the tent, furniture and clothes of the family indicate that he had prospered. The family came here two months ago and had formerly lived at Butler and at Nevada, Mo. OLEOBORORORORG - HRORORORGLR G NOROROROROU IR ROROROKOLO!

LOS ANGELES, May 2.—Fortified by a research of the Political Code of Cali- fornia, certain politicians, not all Demo- | crats, have to-day come to the conclu- | sion that Governor Henry T.

They say that the Governor’s procras- tination in the matter of dispensing of | patronage at his disposal cause trouble for him and many worthy citi- zens eager to succeed others in good jobs.

The injured man is Stuart Masters ' of the University of California. A party of college men, delegates to the Pacific Coast Students’ Conference, now holding its annual session at this place, had made a trip around the seventeen-mile drive on bicycles, and reaching Carmel Hill on the return some attempted to coast down.

The riders of the tandem were thrown and badly bruised, but the rider of the fore- ! most runaway wheel, young Masters, was thrown with terrific force against thae frame of the tandem, striking squarely on his head. He was brougm here un- conscious and remained in that conditio; several hours. He has not yet recognizes any one nor remembered past events, but occur until a ‘week later.

During all that time the bed had not been changed nor had he arisen from it for an instant. The place was piled about with empty flasks which had contained liquor, pre- sumably brought to him by Anderson, from the effects of which it is doubtful if Kehoe could have survived another day. This fact had evidently been recognized by Anderson, for when the attorney ar- rfired And#rson was pleading with the half-conscious and utterly incompetent man to make him his heir.” Anderson was released on $2500 bonds. e, Fathér and Two Sons Lynched.
