[ | | Attorney General Enters the Case and Hansted Wants Vengeance. S - HE eensational affidavit of John M. Chretien accusing “Doc” Ed- ward Weatherly of having pro- duced the bogus heir to the Sulli- van estate has created marked in- attorneys, de- fendants and others Interested in or con- nected with the scandalous case. Chretien repeats that the sworn statements are | absolutely the truth, but the police are inclined to belleve that he is going as far as_he dares to assist Fred Hansted. allas “Young Dutchy,” out of the serious pre- dicament into which he has thrown him- self. There is much to indicate, however, that Weatherly was deeply involved in the conspiracy which has resulted so dis- astrou: to those who schemed to rob | the dead and cheat the State. Weatherly was constantly in the com- pany of Hansted and Chretien. The dutles of the scheming ““Doc”” as an attache of a racetrack association and vagrant race contributor to an evening sheet did not interfere with his close relations with the members of the probate ring. He was with them counseling, suggesting and urging. That he knew the character of the scheme to rob the dead there is no question, and much plausibility attaches therefore to the sworn statement of Chre- tien that the resourceful “Doc” Weather- ly produced the heir whom all of the con- ASSIGNMENTS OF SUBSTITUTES ARE IRREGULAR Webster Directs the Board's Attention to Three Violations. Superintendent Reports on Over- crowded Condition of Rooms in Several Schools and Urges | Immediate Relief. gt Superintendent of Schools Webster ¥ | terday directed the attention of tie | | Board of Education to the fact that three | | teachers had been irregularly assigned to | | the substitute list. He stated that in plac | ing Miss M. F. Mooney and Miss Lucille | | O'Connell on that list a rule passed by | the last board had not been complied | with. This rule provides that experience | in evening school service shall be regard- |ed as one-half of similar experience gained in day school work in determining the average date of uppointment. This would change the date of appointment of Miss Mooney, who was elected as an evening teacher and afterward trans- ferred to day service, from Jar Y | 1898, to November 2 98, and put her 11 una«x xned list. For simi- | ss Lucilie O'Connell's a date of appointment should be Fet | ruary 26, 1598, instead of June 8, which would place her ur number 9 on the signed list instead of 8 on the substi- | { tute 1ist. | | Again, Mrs. Miel, wio is ninth on tha substitute list, was elected a teacher of sewing on July 28, 1897. Webster stated | that Mrs. Miel was not certificated with | a primary certificate ntil - September, | 1898, and she had no right to be regarded as a regular teacher before that da | | Mrs. Miel should then be number 27 on t | 1 unassigned list. The three teache | | who have thus been excluded from the substitute list by reason of the irregu- “lsr(ty are Mi Nolan, Miss M. A | Wright and Miss ck. They and Miss | B. Cleary, all elected into the depart- jment on February 23, 1808, regis- | tered complaints with Superintendent | Webster, who stated that they have a just grievance. The fact that substitutes arc paid §1 a day for reporiing and $2 3 when | | employed makes the irregularity of as- | | signing substitutes all the more appar- ent. .The board appeared ignorant of tha rule quoted by Websterp but promised to | take the matter under advisement. | An interesting document before the | | meeting vesteraay was a report read by | | Superintendent bster in which he cori- tended that the board had not yet done all that is necessary to relieve the con- | | gested attendance in the public schools. i | He called attention to speclfic cases whein | | the enrollment is In exc of fifty-five | | puplls, the limit fixed by the board. The | report’ follows: | _The Crocker Grammar School has enrolled | 1725 puplls with thirt an average over fifty-five p her. In this | crowded condition annot do the work | In the time allowe: ourse.

WEATHERLY, WHOM HE AC( MENT HE WILL TRAVEL TO LONDO! U TO WREAK SUMMARY AS A THIE VENGEANCE UPON “DOC” EDWARD | In the Broadway Grammar School teachers are endeavoring to their uttermost to comply with all that is required in the course of study. One teacher found it mecessary to ex pend $12 for books® recommended to teachers This would ruggest that it would be well for e the department to furnish teachers’ desks with | beoks which the course of study expects them spirators knew to be an impostor. The publication in The Call yesterday of Chretien's affidavit set the Police De- partment in fmmediate action. Chief of Detectives Seym had been informed that Mrs. W eathf'rl\ was still in the city. As a matter of fact he was under the im- pression that he had seen her himself. He detalled a detective therefore to find | her and bring her to police headquarters. The mission was fruitless, as Mrs. Weath- erly is not in San Francisco. The detec- tive was told by the landlady at whose | house the Weatherlys formerly lived that Mrs. Weatherly had left about two weeks It was supposed, however, that she had gone to Chicago. As far as any one in this city knows, “Doc” Weatherly has gone to London, where it is gald he has relatives of some standing. The police will take no further action in connection with the matter, nor is it likely that the Grand Jury will do so. Chretien’s unsupported allegation that Weatherly was the man who presented an impostor as a rightful heir is not considered suffi- clent evidence upon which to base an In- | Glctment. Nor will there be any police | action In connection with Hansted's ac- cusation that Weatherly has robbed him of several thousand dollars, papers and | wearing apparel. “Young Dutchy” has sworn to no complaint against Weatherly, and it will be only by such a complaint that police machinery can be set in motion. “Young Dutchy” says, however, that he will have satisfaction upon Weatherly even if he has to go to London to get it. While “Young Dutchy” is admitted to be in such magter a man of his word, the in- teresting fact remains that he has a pressing engagement to remain for a period in the County Jail. After he has had his seance with the criminal court he opportunity to cross the ocean and take vengeance upon the elu- sive “Doc.” “Young Dutchy” went through the for- mality yesterday of belng arrested and charged again. He was taken from the the City Prison and charged upon the new indictment filed by the Grand Jury. When this formality had been concluded he was taken before Chief of Detectives John Seymour and told his story of how he says Weatherly robbed him. His recital to Captain Sey- mour differed in no particular from that published yesterday {n The Call. He secks to censure the officers of the County Jail for not letting him out to look after his property, but his idea of his personal privileges and that held by the officers differ very materially. It is likely that when “Young Dutchy” is tried Chretien will be his most important witness. There is a slight indlcation that the Bar Assoclation is awakening to a sense of its duty in reference to James Taylor Rogers, the lawyer who was so notorious- Iy connected with the Sulllvan estate. It is sald that the association at its next meeting will consider the recommenda- tion of the Grand Jury to institute dis- barment proceedings against Rogers. De- cent public opinion has demanded such a step for months. Laymen and lawyers alike have insisted that the Bar Associa- tion was staining its own character by doing nothing, but criticism and censure have been alike without avail. It is en- couraging, therefore, that the Bar Asso- clation will at least discuss the question whether or not Rogers is a fit man to practice in the courts of this State. ‘While lawyers and defendants are busy in the criminal courts and in the prison Attorney General Ford 1is preparing to take @ step which will have the property of Joseph Sullivan escheat to the State. “Doc” | This property, for which there is no heir, therefore, that not only has a band probate sharks been punished by the ex- | pose of The Call, but that the property for which they committed a crime will go into the funds of the State.
