Attor. ney Joseph Dunne, who represented th defendants, sought to show that h clients did not rent the premises to the unfortunate outc who occupy the cribs for a few hours each day or night. but this contention was speedily shown to be false by their own witnesses under and the lengt | order to & anxious to shield defendants she was contained ninety rooms, or cribs, and that | e July 1 of this year the largest num- r thut were unoccupied on any one day a5 forty seven, and the smatlest num. r was thirty rom each occupant she efved 33 a and the monthly reve- amounted to about $4000. This money claimed she kept in her husband's saloon across the street, but xamination she admitted that 10t pald any rent, and that there | thousand dollars in the safe. Of course the defendants expected the jury to believe that they leased the place to ‘the woman without insisting on the payment of the rent or without an ac- counting of any sort. . Venture was one of the principal ses for the prosecution, and he tes- | tified that Blumenberg in soliciting him | to buy stock in the Twinkling Star Com- pany told him that his scheme was to have every fallen woman {n the clty take rooms In the “hotel.” It was shown | that the women who rent the cribs are | the exiles from Quincy alley, Bacon piace | and St. Mary's place, and they were in the habit of u('r‘u[r)'!nfi the cribs but a| few hours during the day or night. They | had their homes elsewhere. Lieutenant | of Police Martin and Officer Clark, who | had been detailed on the case by Chief Lees to assist Mr. Barrett, also gave dumaging testimony against the defend- ants. The jury was out less than fifteen minutes. Judge Graham announced that he would pass sentence next Wednesday. The fight against the Hotel Nymphia | has been waged ever since the scheme to | colonize immorality and vice in the neigh- | borhood of Stockton and Pacific streets | was first given publicity. As originally vanned the second roor of the main ‘»ulmlng was intended for a hig saloon, but Aitorney Barreit, acting on behalf of the residents In the viclnity, went hefore the Police Commissioners and success- fully opposed the application for a .icense, Mr. Rarrett also went before the Beard | of Bupervisors when a petition was pre- | sented by the Twinkling Star Tmprove. | ment Company asking to be allowel to | alter the basement of the bullding facing on Stockton street, which was to form | the west wing of the “hotel,” and secured the paesage of a resolvtion declaring the place n public nuisance.

PR Almshouse Employes Were Listed to Leave, but Internal Dissen- sions Postponed the Hegira a Week. gl Dr. @ . Sussdorf, Superintendent Physlcian of the City and County Hos- pital, tendered his resignation to the Board of Health at its regular meeting last night. Hodghead was elected to succeed him. Dr. Sussdorf gave as the reason for his resignation, which is to be In effect on October 1, that his health is rapidly fail- | ing and he {s not equal to the increasing work of the institution and its likewise | increasing disadvantages. The board adopted resolutions praising him highly for his administration and saying that his conduct of the place had been the most successful and prolific of good results of | any in years past. Twice before has Dr. | Sussdort been ready to tender his resig- | nation, but each time was prevailed upnnl to remain for a time, notwithstanding | a of a Democratic administration. Hodghead, his successor, {3 se the Board of f of the College of Physictans and Surgeons and will take up his new dutles highly recommended.

In reply Dr. Sussdorf said that | the only way the hospital could be made | habitable would be to close two wards at a time, disinfect and sterilize them and recalcimine the walls. He also suggested that the unsightly board fence around the { grounds be torn down and an iron one | erected in its place. Also, he sald, the tre: hould be cut down and the bulld- ings left open to the and wing He | sald, too, that when the new hospital is | built it should be on higher and more ex- posed ground and in a more central posi- tion. He agreed to draw up specifica- tions and submit them to the Mayor upon his retirement from office. Dr. Bussdorf's resignation was_handed in by Dr. Barbat, who deserted the mest- ing as soon as it had been accepted. Dr. Payne nominated Dr. Hodghead as his | successor, but only he and Dr. Keeney | voted for him. Dr. Coffey voted for L T. C. Mahr.
