Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, May 27. Exasperated at the refusal of Judge Greene to grant him a continuance in the Menges marriage contest case on account of the iliness of one of his clients, Attor- ney Myron E. Wolf to-day withdrew from the courtroom, leaving the plaintiff, Adam F. Menges, to get judgment by default. ‘Wolf declared he would appeal the case to the Suvreme Court. Menges brought the suit for annullment of the marriage on the ground that his wife is of unsound mind. He said that he learned of her insanity five weeks after their marriage, but continued to live with her for niné years, during which time sev- eral children were born to the couple. _The case first came up before Judge Ellsworth. He declared that the conten- tion of the plaintiff seemed to him, if granted, to open the way for monstrous abuse of the meaning of the law allowing a man to claim the better part of a weman’s life and to discard her when it ?g te({ his jfle’nsure.

C. Wilder Steps Into the Place of W. 8. Palmer. F.F. Lloyd Is Made the Res- ident Engineer at Oakland. Oakland Office S8an Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, May 27. J. C. Wilder, who nas been for years connected with the superintendent’s of- fice on the western division of the South- ern Pacific Company, has been promoted | to be assistant division superintendent | under James - Agler, succeeding W. S. Palmer, who on June 1 will take charge | of the Sacramento division in place of | Jack Wright, resigned. | Mr. Wilder is a brother of the late A. D. Wilder, who was superintendent of the western division for many years and un- til his death two years ago. The new as- sistant stands high in' the esteem and confidenee of the division officials, and brings to his new post of duty a wide ac- quaintance and complete familiarity with | the intricate details of train operation. } The Southern Pacific Company officials have decided to restore the position of resident engineer of the western division, which was combined with that of assist- ant division superintendent when Mr. Pal- mer was named to succeed the late Joseph ompson. At that time Mr. Palmer was resident engineer, but after his ad- | vancement the two positions were. con- | solidated. i By the decision to again separate the duties of the two posts F. Llovd, a clerk in the superintendent’s office, will be | advanced, and on June 1 he will be given the responsible place of resident engineer. The reasons assigned for the re-creation of the position are based upon the heavy | increase in flic and the demand for more supervision in_the operating and | track departments. Much interest has! been taken in epeculation concerning Mr. Palmer's successor here, because the po- sition is deemed by railroad men a very | desirable appointment. This division, be- | ing the main line terminal for both | frelght and passengers, is the most im- portant on the system, particularly on account of the added heavy local service which is handled.

SCENE IN OAKLAND'S CHINATOWN AFTER TWO LOATHED SUBJECTS OF THE MIKADO HAD REACHED THE THIRD COURSE IN YAN KEE'S SWELL ROTISSERIE AND FAILED TO RESPOND TO THE SUSPI- D FOR MONEY. — AKLAND, May 27.—The failure of a pair of Japanese to pay for a set of pork chops precipitated an international riot in Chinatown last night. The entire population leaped on the body of one of the Japanese and so maltreated him that he had to be taken to a doctor. But for detachments from the American and German eontin- gofils. who came on the run to the rescue, the man would have been killed. Satsuma and Hayatsi entered the Yan Kee rotisserle, the swellest place in Chi- natown, about 7 o'clock in the evening. Yan Kee himself waited on them. After consuming the first course of birdsnest soup they ordered pork chops for two for the second. The next course was gin, but by this time the proprietor had made up his mind that all future orders should be on a C. O. D. basis and that all arrearages must be paid quickly. His customers had been dining with such heartiness that a strong suspicion was aroused within his breast that they were going to “‘get in on him” for a large lump of money. Besides he has a natural antipathy for the race and didn't care to serve them anyway. Madly Hurls the Pork Chops. Yan Kee bluntly told the diners of his conclusions and showed them the rules of the house. The effect was instantaneous. Satsuma let fly a plateful of pork chop bones at Yan Kee's head. Hayatsi flung a potted plant in the same direction. Bot! gentlemen then moved toward the door. But egress was barred to the Japs by the hordes of Chinamen, who came fast as soon as they heard a noise. Satsuma got wedged in the doorway and could os- cillate neither way. His friend was being chased around the restaurant with knives, forks and cleavers. It looked bad for the late diners for 2 while, but finally a great thought struck Satsuma. He yelled it to Hayatsi at the top of his lungs. Hayatsi to throw anything he could lay his hands on at the windows and crockery. The rotisserie was soon a sad wreck. Before he got through Hayatsi had Yan Kee et al. running in another direction from him, and in the excitement he made good his escape. Chinamen Toy With Satsuma.

They helped him to his feet and walked with him to his home on Seventh street, where he was treated by a Jap- anese practitioner. The Jap was hardly able to stand.

But when they ar- rived at Seventh street they came in sight of a lot of pickets parading in front of a colenizing establishment.

The Boxers retreated in disorder to their own breastworks, after making a feeble show of fight. Some heads were broken and queues hacked, but that was all.
