PRIEST’S DEPARTURE GRIEVES CONVICTS | Inmates of San Quentin Send a Touching Testimonial to Father Lagan. SAN QUENTIN PRISON, Aug. 3.— When Rev. Hugh Lagan departed for San Francisco to assume the pastorate of | Sacred Heart parish he was given a re- | ception at the Hall Rafael, where several | prominent citizens paid the popular priest a well-deserved eulogy for his broad- minded policy in both civic and religious affairs.

B THEY CAN MAKE MORE MONEY | — | LAWYERS BELIEVE IT IS BE- CAUSE OF THE TEVIS WILL. L In Order to Avoid Dividing the Fees, They Say, the Old Firm Was Dissolved and the New One Formed. s | | The law firm of Page, McCutcheon & Eells has been dissolved, and in the sur- | prise at the dissolution of a partnership supposed to be a permanent one, the legal fraternity is quietly smiling at what they believe is the reason for the breakup. It was no common cause, the lawyers say; it was nothing less than a will and the | will of the millionaire, Lloyd Tevis, and so the fees would not be split up into too | many portions, the firm was quietly dis- solved and a new one was built upon its | ashes. In the new one are Page; Me- | Cutcheon, Harding and Knight. Harding | is Reinhart Harding of the old firm, who, it is said, has been kept in a posi- tion much subordinate to that he held be- | fore. Knight is Sam Knight, ex-Assistant | Uhited States District Attorney. The men | who were left out in the cold are Charles | P. Eells, who for twenty years was a | partner of Page in the old firm of Page | & Bells, and Michael N. Michael. The firm of Page, McCutcheon & Eells | has been in existence for over four years. .| It was formed by the introduction.into | the firm of Page & Bells of Jdward J. | McCutcheon, who had been with M. M. Estee for a jong time. Reinhart Harding was added later. It was always appar- | ently a prosperous firm and appeared to | do a great deal of good business, so when | it was announced that the firm had dis- | solved the question “why” was prominent | among the comments in legal circles. Mr. Page's explanation of the dissolu- | tion is that about three months ago Mc- Cutcheon and he decided that the mem- | bers of the firm could make more money | if it separated into individual members | and each went into business for himself. | “It was three months ago,” he said last evening, ‘‘when Mr. McCutcheon and I ) reached this decision. When we had done | &0 we passed a resolution dissolving the | | firm. No, we did not constitute a major- | | ity, but we passed a resolution dissolv- | | ing’ the firm, and we got out. There is no | | truth in any story of dissensions among | | us. We parted on the best of terms. | We simply thought we could do better if | we separated, and we separated. We took | Mr. Harding into our firm, and three | months ago we spoke to Mr. Knight. | | There was then no thought of the Tevis | will. Mr. Tevis was not-dead, nor have | we yet seen anything of the will. It has | not yet been opened and I have no knowl- edge whether or not we will get it, In| fact, T have no official .knowledge of the | will ‘at all.”” i Tt is just this official knowledge of the | Tevis will that has caused a legal smile | to light the faces of local lawyers. The | old firm had as a matter of fact no offi- | cial knowledge of the will, for the will will not be opened before the return of | Mrs. Sharon from the East. It is under- | stood that McCutcheon will get the pre- | cious document to probate, but it has not | yet been given to him, so it is not the | property of the present firm nor was it the property of the old firm. Hence if the firm dissolved it could not be said that it was deprived of anything it never had, and if then the will were turned over to McCutcheon the old firm would have no | for real objection coming. Tt would have no fees coming either, whick is an incident {in the case. It is this incident the legal fraternity is & that caused the disso- | lution. One fee, however large, divided among Page, McCutcheon, Eells, Harding | and Michael, all full partners, would not amount to so much Individually as the same fee divided between Page and Me- Cutcheon, full partners, and Harding and | Knight, side partners. Mr. Page declares that the deal was commenced three months ago. It was just | about the time Tevis was reported as be- | ing very seriously ill, and so it could have had nothing whatever to do with his will, | he had not died. The dissolution took place about a week ago, according to Mr. Page. perhaps a day or 5o after the d2ath of Tevis, which occurred on the night of July 24, 'but the will had nothing to do with it. Tt was simply because the firm could make more money by separating than by continuing on as it had been do- ing. Michael was away on his vacation when he received his notification of dissolu- tion. When he returned the letter w: walting for him at the University Club. It merely stated that the firm had b dissolved, but it was hoped that would not Interfere with his vacation. Sharon is due to arrive here any ‘As soon as she appears the wiil wiil be opened and t it will go to some lawyer.

The judgment and order of the lower court of this city in the case of Peter W. Watson against Eliza M. Miller, adminis- tratrix of the estate of A. P. More, de: ceased, was affirmed yesterday by the Supreme Court. Watson sued to recover $30,000, claimed to be due for work and servides to More during the two years prior to his death. A complaint.-in inter- | vention was filed by the two heirs and the plaintiffs’ demurrer was overruled. | Upon the trial of the case judgment was against the plaintiff. The lower court found the services performed for More were not valued at more than $00 and More had never agreed to_pay Watson, as the services were undersiood to be gra- tuitous and such as a broker usually so renders for a customer doing business for him. As a matter of fact, Watson had been paid $500 in full for all services. —= e McCarthy Got Something. William McCarthy was awarded a ver dict in the Circult Court yesterday in his suit against the Winslow Brothers Com- pany of Chicago.

She Wore Mourniig for the Dead Man and Testified as to His Bad Qualities and Criminal Record. Mary Cavanaugh wore mourning fov her brother at the Coroner’s inquest ¥ day morning, but her testimony was in favor of her paramour, the man who slew him st Tuesday morning in a saloon at the corner of Mason and Elis streets. Frank Connolly, a companion of the dead man, gave equally favorable te timony, and the jury returned two ve: dicts, the majority of seven jurors sign- ing a verdict of justifiable homicide and Nathan Fisher bringing in a verdict of manslaughter. Coroner Hill approved the majority verdict. Miss Cavanaugh repeated the story that she had told to the police of the threats made by her brother Walter ever since two months ago that he would kil Wil- son. Her brother was a sporting man. she said, and “played the races.” She used to assist him with money up to two months ago. but she refused to do so any longer. She never gave J. P. Wilson money, she said. On Monday night her brother came to her house at 5 Latham place and fired two revolver bullets through tke ceiling, at the same time call- ing upon Wilson to come downstairs and be killed. ¥ She communicated to Wilson the threats made by her brother, and Wilson replied that he hoped nothing would happen, as he did not wish to have any trouble with Cavanaugh. In reply to a question by the Coroner she sald that her brother had served a term of imprisonment in San Quentin Penitentiary for grand larceny. He was very quarrelsome when drinking, but Wilson was a very peaceable man. Cavanaugh always carried a revolver and ‘Wilson never. The revolver with which the killlng was done was formerly the property of Cavanaugh, and she had taken it away from her brother about a year ago and Kept it under her pillow for protection.

BARRETT FITHIAN TO EMU- LATE COUNT FESTETICS. The Santa Barbara Capitalist Has Purchased a Vessel in Which He ‘Will Take a Pleasure Trip. . T. Barrett Fithian, the Santa Bartara capitalist, who is now staying at th: Pal- ace, is making preparations for the same sort of a pleasure trip that was under- taken some .years ago by Count and Countess Festetics. He is going on an ex- tended -tour of the South Sea Islands and expects to be gone from the latter part of this month to next February. He is not going in the ordinary way. He go- ing in his own yacht and he is to be ac- companfed by his wife and a number of gues The invitations are already out and, as yet, he has received no v de- cided refusals. Mr. Fithian has purchased from Com- modore Gutte the old salling schooner Baranoff, which he has renamed the Ro- ver. She will be entirely refitted and ren- ovated and converted into a first-class yacht. Luxuricus cabins, deck houses, saloons, baths and all the appliances gen- erally Yound on a pleasure craft will be ut .in and when she is completed Mr. Fithian thinks that for safety, comfort and speed she will compare favorably with-any craft of her size that has ever sailed out of the Golden Gate. The - original tonnage of the Baranoff was 64.78. The new yacht Rover will be slightly. larger and will go on the regis- ter as a vessel of 38 tons. As the trip is to be purely one of pleas- ure nothing that may conduce to make life bearable in a tropical climate will be left out of the yacht’s furnishings. There will be electric fans to cool the fevered brow that seeks the seclusion of the cabin and other fans for those who pre- fer to remaiy on deck. There will be an ice machine Tor the Eur{mé‘e of reducing the temperature of the large cold botile and the galley will be fitted with every modern appliance that may tend toward reserving the succulence of the small go! bird. In fact, the vessel will be a model of comfort and convenience even if Mr. Fithian, to cater to the social pre- Judices, finds it necessary to put patent leather tips on the Rover's fore foot. The trip will carry the Rover to Hono- lulu and from there to the Marquesas, Society and Fiji _Islands, thence back home by way of South America. —_— ecee—— Death at Nicolaus.
