20 T HE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1901 FTHUGH S FST SUDDENY Wife Bids Farewell to Her Friends at San Rafael Everett St. John Will Not Talk Regarding His Visit Here. s H. E. Fitzhugh, who has acted as as- sistant to President Hays of the Bouthern Pacific Company for a brief period, packed up bag and baggage Friday and went East. He took his wife and family with him and now all the rallroad men around the yellow building are guessing whether he intends to return or whether he has resigned his position. Under the regime of President Hays the jpolicy of the company and the move- ments of his most prominent officials have been hard to ascertain. The departure of Fitzhugh was not generally known in railroad circles until late yesterday. When it became general gossip no moti for hie departure could be given. Fitzhugh's secretary was seen last even- ing. He became very confidential and said that the president’s assistant had gone East on a pleasure jaunt. He said that he expected that Fitzhugh would be gone some time, but that he would surely return. On the other hand the guests of the Hotel Rafael tell quite a different story. They claim that Fitzhugh came over to the hotel on Friday night and that with- in two hours all his belongings had been packed; that Mrs. Fitzhugh went around the hotel bidding everybody good-by and saying that she was geing it and might never see them again. Everett St. John, the former president of the Seaboard line, is still a guest at the Palace. He is still very reticent as to the objects of his visit here. Many ©of the old rallroad officials state that they think St. John has come to take Fits- hugh's position. STEVENS WANTED FOR FELONY EMBEZZLEMENT Mrs. Mary A.

B G E Her Mind Is Clear Again and Her Appetite Has Returned. PAPSSE . Miss Pearl Wagner of Berkeley, who was prostrated from fright by having a panther pursue her in the Trinity County mountains six weeks ago, is recovering from the terrible experience she under- went. For nearly a week she has attend- ed her meals regularly and has had none of the violent convulsions and spells of unconsclousness to which she was sub- Ject for a number of days after her fright. She still has a fever into which the shock | threw her, but this is being gradually overcome. Dr. H. N. Miner, the attend- ing physician, believes that with the con- quering of the fever complete health will be restored. Miss Wagner's condition has been pecu- llar. In her weakened state fear of the panther would come over her again and then the fever would settle in her brain, bringing on violent spells of half an hour’s duration. By applying ice to her head and hot applications to her feet the blood would be normal condition restored. This and other treatments have succeeded in les sening the number and violence of her | convuisive spells and in reducing her fever. Every hope is now entertained for hesr mlee"t"fi[?very' peaking o ss Wagner’'s condition, Dr. Miner eaid: Miss Wagner's condition is due to shock from fright and strain from holding the runaway horse. The fever settling in her brain has given her a form of dementia at times, but 88 s00n as the fever is cured her recovery may be hoped for. Care and quiet is what she needs. She should rest in seclusion for some time. W. Schmidt, Miss Wagner's brother-in- law, end at whose home the young lady s now staying, said to-day: We ghould have feared for Miss Wagne: sanily had 1t not been that medical treatment brought her out of her convulsive epells. She has been rational for several days and has at- tended her meals regularly. No one to talk to her would know that she was ill, kept very guiet and is allowed to see only & few of her most intimate friends, Her father and mother are with her constantly and are greatly encoureged over her improvement. P. A. Wagner, the young woman's father, came with his daughter from Trinity County immediately after the ac- cident. He hes been at her side constant- ly and his presence has done much in al- laying her recurring fears. He has had no thought of taking her to an asylum, "ill remain with her as ion, she i in need of his care. e e TELEPHONE COMPANY WILL RETAIN ITS FRANCHISE Supervisors Will Not Sue People’s Mutual Concern to Force Surren- der of Privileges. The Board of Supervisors will receive a report from the Judiciary Committee at next week’s meeting in which it will be recommended that no suit be commenced against the People’s Mutual Telephone Company looking toward the forfeiture of its franchise. A resolution was adopt- ed recently by the board accusing the company of not having expended the sum of 525,000 within a certain period. and | asking the City Attorney for his opinion as to the mode of procedure to 1 the company p surrender its franchise. The City Attorney held that if the as- sertjons made in the board’s resolution were facts and that none of the require- ments and conditions imposed on the com- pany had been complied with, then the board should make demand upon the com- pany for $10,000—the amount of its bond. James L. Crittenden, president of the company, appeared before the committea | and stated that the concern was proceed- ing in good faith to install its system. — e Divorce Suits Filed.

Successors to I FREUD’S CORSET HOUSE| OAKLAND 1157 BROADWAY, CAL. ; the Great Filly } Stakes. l | NEW YORK, Sept. 7.—Two fixtures were decided at the Sheepshead Bay races to-day. One was the Great Filly stakes, worth $28,750, the other the Century stakes of $10,00, at one mile and a half. Blue Girl, Willam C. Whitney’s filly, was beaten a short head for the first named in a sensational finish with Leonora Lor- ing. Blue Girl was coupled with Gunfire and Rose of May as the Whitney entry and was a 3 to 5 favorite. Leonora Lor- ing jumped to the front at the start, and, with Hatasco and Lux Casta in close at- tendance, made the running to the bend for home. Far back Blue Girl was strug- gling along with the trallers. At the last furlong pole Blue Girl was eight lengths | benind. Shaw at this point got to work {on the favorite and with a phenomenal burst of speed Blue Girl flew past the others and on to the post just a head be- hind the winner, Leonora Loring lasti long enough to win by a head. Mr. Whi ney after the race asked the stewards to make an official investigation of Shaw's ride on Blue Girl. In the Century stakes Water Color, gec- gnd cholce in the betting galloped in front all the way and won easily by three iengths from Rockton in 2:32.

The Whitney brothers—George and Rob- ert—by beating Smith and McGavin yes- terday in the challenge match on the San Rafael courts are the champions of the coast in doubles for the coming year. They were expected to win with littla trouble, but their opponents put up a game fight. The score in favor of the ‘Whitneys was 6-3, 8-6, 7-5. Smith and McGavin came very near winning both the second and third sets. In the second they had a lead of 6-5 and in the third they led at 3-0 and 4-2 van- tage in their favor. Robert was rather tired from his match in the morning and Gecrge was a trifle nervous. The losers both played their hardest, and although beaten were not disgraced. Their show- ing of yesterday was better than that made by the Hardys a year ago against the same team. There was an unusually large crowd of spectators present and ex- citement ran high at critical moments. In the morning Alfonso Bell, the cham- plon of Southern California. by beating Bob Whitney in the finals of the singies tournament won that event and earned the right to play George Whitney on Monday, for the championship of the coast. “The score in Bell's favor was 6-1, 6-8, 61, 6-3. 53 While the majority picked Whitney to win, still those who know him best were very much afraid he would lose to Bell. When up against a _stranger Whitney loses self-control and becomes very nherv- ous, At times he drove beautifully, but his nets and outs were very numerous. Bell played a fine game at the net, but was rather weak in the back court. His service worried Whitney considerably, the bounce being too high to drive. The championship match {n singles will be played Monday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, when Champion George Whitney will be called upon to defend his title against Bell, the winner of the tourna- ment. The drawing for the consolation singles tournament, to be played Monday morn- ing, resulted as follows: ‘W. B. Collier, a bye; C. G. Kuehn vs. R. G. Hunt, M. Johnson vs. P. Murdock, C. Gooding vs. F.

Accused of Robbing the In- dianapolis Furniture Company. —_— Charles C. Cole, a porter in the empioy- ment of the Indianapolis Furniture Com- pany, 750 Mission street, was arrested in the store yesterday afternoon by Detec- tive Ryan and booked at the City Prison on three charges of grand larceny. About five weeks ago the fact was pub- lished in The Call that about §2500 worth of carpets, portieres, lace curtains and blankets had been stolen from the store of the furniture company and a search war- rent had been procured to recover tha goods. It was suspected at that time that Cole was the thief and since then De- tective Ryan has been working on the case and claims that he has absclute proof of Cole’s guilt. Cole_ the detective says, had been em- ployed for two years. About a year ago rolis of carpets were missing and in time more rolls went astray, besides quanti- ties of other goods. It was discovered by Ryan that Cole, whp had a key to the store, was in the Habit of going there early in the morning before any one else arrived and taking the stolen goods to the rear entrance on Jessie street, where they were carted away by a confederate, who has not yet been arrested. Ryan al- leges that Robert Hegerty, who was one | of the proprietors of the Pabst cafe, and | is now in Nome, was the “fence.” | Hegerty offered R. J. Graf, son-in-law of Jake Rauer, ten rolls of carpet valued at $500 for $250.. The rolis were sent to Graf's house, but when Rauer sawe them he told Gratf to have nothing to do with | them and they were returned to Heg- erty, who subsequently sold them to T. D. McCarty, furniture dealer. 764 Mission street, and there Is a civil suit now pe ing for their recovery srom McCarty. Ryan says he has located some of the other rolls of carpet and expects to be able to recover them and the other goods.q Hegerty would have been arrested if he had not gone to Nome. The Indianapolis Company says it will lay the whole mat- ter before the Grand Jury. Cole is a married man and lives at 3% Turk street. SEVEN FELONY CHARGES MADE AGAINST COLLECTCR Long Term of Imprisonment Staring | George W. Robinson in the Face. George W. Robinson, the young man who was arrested Thursday zling $97 % which he had collected for Charles A. Worth, boss drayman, 318 Mar- ket street, had a charge of burglary and five charges of grand larceny booked agafhst him by Detective Harper yester- day morning. The burglary charge is for breaking into the office of Attorney Reu- | ben H. Lloyd, in the Nevada block, on August 17 after office hours and stealing a typewriting machine and some other articles. The grand larceny charges are for steal- ing bicycles, which he sold. August 12 he stole a bicycle from the Academy of Sei- ences building belonging to J. C. Dean.

Change of Constitution Re- garding Residence of Trustees. The members of the Mechanics’ Instie tute held a quarterly meeting last night, at which an important article of the con- stitution was amended and Mayor Phelan submitted two propositions relative to the Carnegie library-gift. One proposition was received with a smile and dismissed without a thought. The members will think about the other. The Mayor’s first proposition was that the Pavilion site be turned over to the city as a gift. There might be conditions attached to the gift or the trust as it was referred to and the dictation of these con- ditions was to be the compensation of the Mechanics’ Institute for its $700,000 block of land. The Mayor was told to “uwy again.” His Honor explained that the Pavilion site was worth probably $700,000 and that the city could not afford to pay that much. Both the Supervisors, he sald, and the City Library Trustees had made up their minds that the present site of the Me- chanics’ Pavilion was the proper placa for the Carnegie library and they wanted it. They would pay a reasonable figure if they could not get it as a gift.
