Sending his two little children to be cared for by relatives, Pfaff brooded over | his troubles in the desolate home at 337 On Wednesday he called upon his wife. He was very despondent. He promised to see her on Thursday, but did not do so. His wife thought that he had again secured a position and looked forward to meeting him. The unfortunate man was in the habit of visiting his wife's aunt, Mrs. E. Stanton, each evening at her home on Sheridan street. Mrs. Stan- ton, alarmed at not seeing Pfaff for two evenings, yesterday went to his home. She found the doors locked and sought the! assistance of women neighbors. Ascend- ing the rear stairs, the women peered through the window and saw Praff’s body | hanging in a doorway. Screaming with | fright, Mrs. Stanton and her cflmpanlnnsl | fled and notified Police Officer Rheil. Rheil, ted by Daniel Holtzel, entered | F Pfaff’s roo only to find that the man | was dead.

W, | Cavanaugh; an offer to forfeit $1000 in gold coin if the charges embraced in the tes- | timony and published statements of Frank | Daroux and B. W. Cavanaugh against | Clark are shown to be false, and a caus- tlc statement from Mayor Clark himself in which he points to his record as dis- | proving the charges of nis enemies, and at | the same time gives Colonel J. B. Wright | an additional rap. The oil land case appears to be hopeless- 1y lost in the shufile, and accounts of pro- ceedings therein in the face of the sensa- tlon which the trial has developed are about as Interesting as a bound volume of consular reports. Cavanaugh Accuses Clark. Cavanaugh, in his statement, avers that had a_conference as to how much percent- age of the poolroom business Mayor Clark should have and that Clark demanded 25 per cent for himself and 10 per cent for Rowland. Cavanaugh details the circumstances | of a meeting on the front porch of his house on the Saturday night preceding the Monday night when the existing ordl ance on the poolrcom question was pre sented to the Board of Trustees. Cavan- augh says Mayor Clark had just been n | the pulpits of the city denouncing the poolroom evil and insisting on its suppres- | slon, and that he desired to be protected | by having the proposed license ordinance s0 changed that when an application was duly made to him he “‘must” issue a I cense to the poolrooms instead of “may. Cavanaugh says that President John C. Ing of the Board of Trustees, who was present at the conference on the porch, suspected that Clark ‘‘was getting some- thing out of it,”" and insisted that if Clark wanted the poolrooms reopened he should shoulder the entire blame. Cava- naugh then tells of the organization of the | Sacramento Club for the purpose of ap- plying for a license under the new ordi- nance, and declares that M. F. Rowland was elected one of the directors therein to represent Clark’s interests, and that 25 per cent of the capital stock was assigned to him. Cavanaugh says that Clark was not satisfied even with this concession, but stipulated that he must have an agent in the poolroom when it should be opened, who would furnish him a statement each day of the amount of business transacted. Cavanaugh winds up his statement in these words: “If I have elpoken falsely concerning Mayor Clark have committed a very grave offense, for which I should be made by him to answer in the courts for crim- inal libel.” Mayor Slaps at Wright. Mayor Clark’s statement deals in large part with a reply to the charges made yesterday in interviews with Daroux and President Ing of the Board of Trustees re- specting his alleged insincerity in his anti- poolroom crusade. He asserts that Ing all along stood in with the poolroom crowd. He declares he was induced to go to Cav- anaugh's house, on the night of the porch incident, by a message that Cavanaugh was sick and wanted to see him, and that when he got there he was asked to sup- port the Ing ordinance providing for the licensing of poolrooms in any part of the city. The Mayor continues: I refused point blank to lend my support to any ordinance that would permit the selling of pools at any place other than the racetrack during the races. e arguments used to gain ‘my co-operation were of several kinds, but the one upon which Cavanaugh laid the most stress was that I ought to stand for it because *Jack"’ Wright was interested with them and I owed him something for the political support he had | rendered me in my last campaign; that all po- litfeal sores would be healed and the colonel would be with me again this fall for the nomi- nation and election 1f I would only stand with them on the ordinance they propose to intro- duce. I flatly refused to recede an inch from my stand against the conducting of the pool- | Tooms in the city. I told them I would veto any ordinance that permitted the selling of pocls in this city che}ll on the racetrack dur- ing the races. This I have done and I cail your attention to the record of the poolroom or- dinances to sustain my statements. No matter what they assert my statements and my record prove each other. This cannot be denied. l‘\ discussing the Ing ordinance I did not ask that “‘may’’ be changed to ‘‘must,”” nor dfd I agree to any proposition whatsoever whereby | poolrooms would be permitted to run. Ing in- troduced his ordinance, which provided for the running of poolrooms at any place in the city upon the payment of a license. Immedlately upon its pussage I vetoed it. It was passed over my veto., Cavanaugh and Daroux applied for a license to conduct a poolroom downtown, Ing voted for it and Chief Sullivan and I voted against it. Cavanaugh and roux then com- menced suit in the Superior Court to compeli me to give them a license. I instructed the corporation counsel to contest that suit as vigorously as he could. He did so, and was | successful. They never have obtained a license | and have never been able to open thelr pool- Tooms. ‘Will Prove or Pay. Despite the (enials contained in Mayor Clark's statement, the following appeared consplcuously displayed in to-night's Bee, accompanied by a certification from the cashier of the California State Bank that he has received the sum of $1000 to be pald by him on the order of the clergymen named, who are the most prominent di- vines in the city: The editor of the Bee has been handed the sum of $1000 in gold coin of the United States, which he has deposited in the California Staté Bank in his own name as trustee. That money is to be distributed in charity, under instructions, if the accusations against Mayor Clark cannot be proved—the accusa- tions made both under oath and in published interviews—to the effect that the Mayor had the poolrcem licensing ordinance; that he wanted it altered so as to make it imperative upon him to issue licenses; and that he vetoed the ordinance on the night it was passed, .in perfect knowledge of the programme that It It is asked that Rev. C. A. Dickinson, Rev. J. Carroll, Rev. A. B. Banks. Rev. C. L. Miel and Father Quinn accept this money and distribute it in charity as they, or the ma- Jority of them, may see fit—provided these statements against the Mayor shall not be proved to thelr entire, satisfaction, by the par- ties making such charges, at any time they may desire to investigate. They have been named in this matter because the churches were a very strong potent influence in the closing of the poolrooms, and these ministers would certainly form a Ccommittee which should be acceptable to all parties concerned.
