Wheecler Re- gent of the State University to fill the vacancy caused by the | death of Albert Miller. The term for which the late Mr. Miller was uppointed ends in 1905, hence Mr. Wheel- er is appointed to serve until that year. The Governor also reappointed Ig W. Hellman Regent to succeed himself. The full term of sixteen years for which Mr. Hellman, who is president of the Navada Bank, is appointed will not expire until 1918. Mr. Wheeler, while not altcgether sur- prised, was very much gratified to re- ceive the intelligence of his appointment. He said: Not Officially Notified “I have not been notified officially as yet, though the announcement does not take me wholly by surprise.” While unwilling to say anything about the appointment, Wheeier admitted that it was in no sense a political one, nor was it brought about through any influence of a political nature. Although a Repub- liaen, he has never taken an active part in politics, but has devoted his enthu: asm to matters pertaining to universit life. ested in the higher education, and partic- ularly in the public school system. Mr. Wheeler was born in Alameda County in_ 1863, his father. the late Charles C. Wheeler, having come to Cal- ifornia from Maine in the early days. He is a graduate of the University of California of the clas-of 1884, and after | attending the law department of that in- | stitution svas admitted to the bar of this State ‘in 1886 practice with the late Judge John H. Boalt, and was also one of the law firm of Garber, Boalt & Bishop. ‘He remained a partner of the firm as long as it exist- ed and then joined interests with the present’ firm of Bishop, .

A brief session of the Board of Educa- tion yesterday afternoon was enlivened by | |a debate between Attorney Stephen V.| Costello, representing Miss Mary McKin- | ney, and School Director Denman. Cos- | tello appeared before the board in refer- | ence to the trial of his client, which was | set for this morning. He first objected | to proceeding to trial on the charges pre- | sented on the ground that they were not | Properly filed. The board refused to listen | to Costello on this subject. i | 1, Then I object to Mr., Denman sitting | | In_judgment ‘on Miss McKinney on the | ground that he has already exvressed an | opinion’ regarding my client,” said Cos- tello. The opinion referred to was a pur. ported Interview with Denman published n an evening paper. “Those words were put in my rnm‘;lh 3 said Denman. I never uttered them.’ I propose to sue out a writ of injunc- | thon to prevent you sitting on th retorted Costello. 7 e Then .the board decided to begin the trial of Miss McKinney on Frlday‘ morn- ing at 10 o’clock. If Costello can prevent | Denman from participating in the trial only two members can act,.as Mark has already admitted his blas and as two do not comprise a quorum it would be im- possible to proceed. The monthly demands for January, with the exception of those of five substitute | teachers, were passed without objection, Superintendent Webster claimed these five were not regularly appointed. but the board decided to place them on the list. Webster later signed the demands, o ———— CLAIMS PETER ALLADIO FALSIFIED HIS ACCOUNTS Joseph Negro Sues Partner in Res- taurant Business for an Ac- counting. There are other “‘goings-on™ at the Mai-r son Alladio on Grant avenue besides the making of famous cheese and the filling of epicurean stomachs. The owners of the restaurant are quarreling and the courts have been appealed to to settle their difficulties. Joseph Negro, who with Peter Alladio conducts the place, has asked the Superior Court to appoint a | receiver to take charge of the business pending the trial of a sult for an ac- | counting and a dissolution of partnership filed by Negro yesterday. Negro accuses Ailadio of taking more than his share of the profits of the busi- ness. He 'nlleges further that the defend- ant, after'whom the restaurant is named, has made entries in the books of the con- cern showing that he has expended large sums for the benefit of the business, when in reality he has spent the money 8n himself. Negro.alleges further that the business has been ruined through Al- ladio’s failure to give his time and atten- tion to it. T e Game Law Violator Caught. Deputy Fish Commissioner W. A. Bchultz arrested a man who gave his name as Alexander Smith in front of the | Hall of Justice yesterday for violation of the game law. which forbids the posses- sion of wild ducks during the close s=ason Attorney Cook of the Fish Commission states that the alleged Smith is real], Alexander Truman, a special police of- | | ' on Sunday last, and when he appeared in .1 last, and that a man stood in front of | I him on the night of ‘October 11 last at Howard and Twentleth' streets, was re- sumed yesterday morning before Superior Judge Lawlor and a jury. The hearing of evideénce in the case had . been postponed for some days on account | of the absence from the city of Walter Pyatt and his daughter, Erline Pyatt, im- portant witnesses for the prosecution. Pyatt arrived from the City of Mexico court yesterday he announced that his daughter was {ll in the City of Mexico and was unablé to be present at the trial. Pyatt testified that he was on a Howard street car on ihe evening of October 11 and that he saw Buckley jump from the car and shcot Rice, w}go was being clubbed by another man. The cross-ex- | amination by the defense falled to shake | the evidence of the witness, Police Officer Brown testified that when he placed Buckley under arrest the pris- oner had a scar on the side of his face. | This evidence was most important, as it was a strong point in the identification of Buckley by Mr. Pyatt's daughter. There was a legal battle between the at- | torneys for the prosecution and the de- fense when it was sought to introduce the | transcript of the evidence given by Miss Erline Pyatt in the Police Court. Important Evidence Produced. Police Judge Mogan was called to tes-! tify that Miss Erline Pyatt had been a sitness in the preliminary examination of ! MBuckley. Stenographer G. W. Long tes- | tified to having taken down the evidence : of Mfss Pyatt, and’ identified the tran- | script produced by the prosecution. The attorneys for Buckley made every effort to kecp the transcript out of the | case and quibbled over technical points. In order to have the transcript admitted | in evidence the prosecution called Miss | Esther M. Gray, who testified that she | had typewritten the transcript from dic- | tation’ glven by Stenographer Long. with | the exception of about 100 pages of the document. Long testified that he had him- self typewritten the balance of the tran- script. It was then admitted in evidence. | The bulk of the afternoon session was taken up with the reading to the jury of the evidence and cross-examination of | Miss Erline Pyatt in the Police Court. | The evidence of the young lady showed that she was with her father on a How- | ard street car on the evening of October her on the dummy of the car. This man | was_identified by the witness as being Buckley. Miss Pyatt also asserted that he was the man who jumped from the car t at Howard and Twentieth streets. where | Rice was being clubbed by another man. ! Buckley Fired Fatal Shots. Miss Pyatt in her testimony told how Buckley had drawn a revolver and fired ! four shots into Rice's bolly as he was falling and as he lay on the ground. The long_cross-examination of Miss Pyatt in | the Police Court failed to“shake her tes- timony in the slightest degree, and the testimony given by her was listened to most carefully when it was read to the Jjury yesterday afternoon. Waiter B. Dexter, a machinist, was called by the prosecution, and he testified to the fact that Rice was a non-union workman during the recent labor strikes and that he was known as a ‘“'scab.” Dexter's evidence was presented in or- der to connect Buckley with the state- ! ment he made on the night that Rice i was murdered—that he, | going out after a scab. Buckley, The further hearing of the trial will be resumed this morning at 10 o'clock. EXPECTORATORS GET “‘was { OFF WITH REBRIMAND Police Judges Will Assist in Having ,the Ordinance Rigidly s Enforced. Thirty-four men who were arrested, in different parts of the city Sunday for ex- | pectorating on the sidewalk appeared in the Police Courts yesterday morning. Some had been able to. give bail, many spent the night in the City Prison. | Judge Mogan had eleven before him, all ! of whom were allowed to go. Judge Fritz had nine. The cases against six of | these were dismissed and three were con- tinued till to-day. Judge Conlan had eight cases, four being dismissed and four continued till to-day. Judge Cabaniss had | six, four being dismissed and two con- tinued. sudge Cabaniss opinion of the other Judges when he said: “I am in full sympathy with the Chief in having the ordinance rigidly enforced and 1 will inflict punishment when neces- sary. But in an ordinary case, when a { man simply in a thoughtless way expec- torates on the sidewalk he has'a ride in the patrol wagon, spends a few hours in prison and is compelled to appear in court next morning. I consider all that is suf- { ficient punishment, with a reprimand add- ed. The wholesale arrests now being made should bring about the desired re- sult.” ——————— GRISETTE ACQUITTED OF ' ROBBERY CHARGE Jury Could Not Agree and‘ the Judge Instructed Them as to Verdict. Willlam J. Grisette was acquitted by a jury in Judge Cook's court yesterday of a charge of robhery. He was accused of robbing John ' Badnasty of 720 Howard street of $45) on Fourth street on the night of December 11. Grisette was ar- rested almost immediately afterward and only $2 15 was found in his pockets. Bad- nasty did not make his appearance and it _is supposed has left the city. The jury was out nearly four hours and came into court three times for instruc- tions, The last time the Judge instructed them to bring in a verdict of acquittal, seeing they could not agree, as the testi- 1 mony for the prosecution was very weak. On the first ballot the jury stood six to six and on the last eight for conviction and four for acquittal. —_——————— NORTHERN CALIFORNIA RECEIVES SOME RAIN TUnusually Small Amount of Moist- ure Is Reported for the Month of January. Rain fell pretty generally throughout the northern part of California yesterday. The Weather Bureau officials predict that both the central and northern parts of the State will haye numerous showers to- day. The temperature has moderated con. siderably, and it is stated that normal conditions may now be expected to pre- vail. Forecaster McAdie reports that the weather for January was very unusual. The lack of molsture was especially. no- ticeable, only 1.23 inches of rainfall being registered. The average rainfall for Jan- uary is 4.85 inches. Nearly four inches less of rain fell in December than in the same month of other years. The peculiar ~ conditions prevailng at present are laid to the existence of an ex- traordinarily high air pressure in Utah and Idaho. Crops in the interior are suf- fering from the long-continued dryness, and there is an urgent need of rain'in all the agricultural districts. o —————— This Is Intended for Everybody.

Nordica at the Palace Hotel indicate that she is stil a very sick woman and all | communication with her has been abso- | lutely forbidden by her physicians. Al- though it was announced,that her condi- tion had greatly improved, still ‘the pre- cautions that are being taken to insure her absolute rest and quiet indicate that ! her recovery has not been as rapid as | was hopea for. She was scheduled to sing | fo-night, but it will be impossible for her to do so. Mme. Nordica has been suffering from a severe nervous shock as the result of a railway accident which occurred some weeks ago in Georgla. For some days she apparently suffered no inconvenience, but after reaching this coast she was com- pelled to cancel a number of engagements in the southern part of the State. Instead of allowing her to rest there she was hurried to this city, and ‘the journey ap- parently was too much for her. Her local managers, however, express themselves as confident that she will be able to give her first recital on Thursday evening, and announce her appearance on i that night. Her second appearance is an- nounced for Saturday afternoon and the third for next Monday night. The pro- gramme as announced will remain un- changed, but the programme scheduled for to-night will be rendered on Monday An exchange of tickets to sult the ce of patrons is also announced.

He was treated nt injury t |the City and County Hospital, after which he was removed to his home. | United States Lighthouse Inspector, 404 found in the room. It is believed that Mahoney was intoxicated when he made away with himself. His wife is in Los Angeles, and some of Mahoney’s friends say that he had had a quarrel with her | and that his despondency may have been caused by that. Mahoney first came under the' notice of the police during the Midwinter Fair when he was arrested along with a large | number of local and outside bunko men, pickpockets and crooks generally. He was a big, ‘‘rawboned” appearing man and was known as the “Irish farmer.” He got this name when he was arrested about four years ago. Asked by Judge Conlan what his occupation was, he replied “a farmer,” and said he owned two lodging- houses in Los Angeles. Altogether he has been arrested about fifty times within the | Jast seven years. A fow months ago he was brought before the late Chief Sullivan and promised to leave the city. He went to Kansas City and must have returned | recently. Among his papers were two bank books | which is | in the name of “W. B. Little,” believed to have been his right name. One was of the Merchants’ and Farmers’ Bank of Los Angeles, showing $1000 to his credit. The other was of the Broadway Bank and Trust Company of Los Angeles, | showing $130 to his credit. He had check books of these banks and also of the Commercial Bank of Kansas City, Mo. ALFRED GLARKE Life’'s Book Closes for Unique San Francisco Character. Alfred Clarke died yesterday morning at his residence, 1208 Masonic avenue of gen- eral debility. He was born in Wexford, Ireland, in 1832. Clarke was connected with the police force for more than eighteen years. His first appointment was on December 31, 1856, but he was removed on December 1, 1868. Three years later he was reappoint- ed to the force. When John Short was promoted and placed in charge of the Southern police district, Chief of Police Crowley appointed Clarke his clerk, a po- sition that he filled until his resignation on December 31, 1877. While acting as clerk Clarke studied law and was admitted to practice. He appeared in a number of minor cases for Chief Crowley and was moderately sue- cessful. He acquired considerable prop- erty, but after his retirement from office “his fortune dwindled away. A great deal of his money was spent in fruitless litiga- tion and creditors finally forced him into | insolvency. Clatke ‘was married three times and leaves a wife and son, Alfred. The fu- neral will take place to-morrow from St. Agnes Church, on Masonic avenue, be- tween Oak and Page streets, where a sol- emn requiem mass will be celebrated. The interment will take place in Laurel Hill Cemetery. Clarke at one time was a deacon of Calvary Presbyterian Church, but later embraced Catholicism. PETITION FOR UNIFORM GAS AND ELECTRIC RATES Froperty Owners Request Supervis- ors to Pass Measure Prohibiting Unjust Discrimination. A petition signed by 1881 property own- ers was filed yesterday with the Board of Supervisors requesting that a uniform rate be charged for gas and electric light- | ing. The petition directs attention to the | fact that gas and electric current is be- ing sold by the companies engaged in the business at rates ranging from i cents t0.$1 40 per 1000 cubic feet for gas and 313 to 11 cents per 1000 watt-hours for electric | current, the prices depending upon the condition of ~competition existing or threatened in various parts of the city. The petitioners ask that there be insert- ed in the next ordinance fixing the rate a provision requiring the companies to maintain uniform rates, and a further provision that if any company fixes a less rate. to any -consumer it shail be unlawful to exact a higher rate from any other consumer, so that unjust dis- crimination shall cease. —_—— Keepers of Lighthouses.
