Mrs. Morrison sued her husband for mainte- nance, and he answered her suit by fliing 2 eross-eomplaint in which, he apoiled for a divorce.

Daniels’ Fortune Dwindles to a Small Sum. The hearing of the petition for letters of guardianship ®ver the person and estate of Mrs. Mary E. Daniels was resumed in Judge Troutt's court yesterday. Mrs. Margaret Halpin is the petitioner, and the testimony she introduced yesterday sup- ported her contention that Mrs. Daniels is incompetent. Mrs. Daniels is a para- lytic, at present confined in the Lane Hos- pital. Considerable interest is aroused in the legal proceedings now being heard, | because she has lost a fortune of $20,000 in a manner.that is at least mysterious. According to the testimony introduced yesterday the loss of Mrs. Daniels’ wealth is due to.deals in realty. She came into the money on the ‘death of her husband, but little more than five years ago, and to-day she has gnly $3800 left. It was shown Pesterday that in 1895 Mrs. Daniels purchased through the real estate firm of Burnham & Marsh property on Taylor street, north of Geary, for $i5,000, which the same agents sold two vears ago for $13,000, less a commission of 2% per cent. With the proceeds of this sale roperty on Ashbury Heights, near Wal- er street, and on the northwest corner of Devisadero and Page streets * was pur- chased by Burnham & Marsh for Mrs. Daniels. = Subsequently ‘the Devisadero and Page streets property was exchanged for property on the same streets, but on the southwest corner, “‘the shady side of the street,” for the sale of which the real estate firm had a contract. There was a mortgage of $6500 on this property, and when, on December 24 of last year, Mrs. Daniels was induced to sell the corner for $9400 she had to pay the French Bank $7000 of that amount. B. H. Nelson of the real estate firm of Nelson & Johnson testified that he pur- chased the Ashbury street property, for which Mrs. Danlels pald $5125, for $4350. His agent in this transaction was G. K. Tucker. Nelson further testified that he sold the front half of the property for $5500, and that he has placed a value o $1000 on the remaining half. ey Some time ago the question of the jn- competency of Mrs. Daniels. was brought before Judge Coffey by a petition for Jet- ters of guardianship filed by one of the woman’s relatives. Judge Coffey issued ietters of guardlanshlr to a trust com- pany, and subsequently withdrew them, thus Jeaving Mrs. Daniels at the mercy of any one who might deem it advisable to prey upon her, The rapid dwindling of the fortune of the unfortunate woman has attracted the earnest attention of Judge Troutt, and he will pay Mrs, Daniels a visit at the hospital this morning before opening court e e A man seldom walks erect when strait- en®d by circumstances.

Carolan ‘With the return of Francis J. Carolan, master of San Mateo drag hounds, from the East, the hunting men are showing renewed interest in that pleasurable sport. An unusually large field turned out last Saturday, its picturesqueness being added to by the presence of three whippers-in clad in the regulation scarlet coat, and well mounted. On Wednesday Miss Tobin, sister of such thorough sportsmen Richard M, and Joseph S. Tobin, wasfa member of the fleld and surprised those in_attend- ance by her horsemanship. She has just returned from a year's sojourn in Ire- land, where she hunted regularly with the representative packs in County Mayo. Having ridden over the stiff, stone- faced fences and the rough, hilly’ country peculiar to that part of Ireland, she found little difficulty in negotiating the rail fences and the delightful foothill country of San Mateo County. The San Mateo hounds will megt to- day at 2:30 p. m. at the reservoir] Bur- lingame. The ground is in excellent con- dition owing to the recent rain. All that is required to make the hunting men happy Is a dry day. The hounds are steadily improving in pace, appearance and in hunting qualities. Dropping out a “tail” hound occasionally has worked wonders with the pack. *Tail” hounds— that is, the slowest ones—are of less value in a drag hunt than in fox, deer or hare hunting. The gentlemen who hunt with the San_Mateo hounds should appreciaté the good sport afforded them this season. The first polo game of the season will be played to-morrow at Burlingame. A notablé addition is to be made shortly to the ranks of the players. There is no less a -personage than T. Drysborough, one of the best players in England and a recognized authority on the sport. He is the author of the most comprehensive book ever written on polo, it being the accepted authority the world over. Games will be played regularly “here- after.

The arrests were made by, Policemen Cooney, Nolt- ing, Cassidy and Clancy and the patrol wagons were kept busy for a time con- veying the prisoners to the City Prison. Peter Dolan’s lodging-house at 675 How- ard street was first ralded and Dolan and forty-one lodgers were arrested. The lodging-house is in the basement and Dolan’s charges are 5 cents for a bunk under the sidewalk and 10 cents for a cot in the center of the cellar. Fifteen men were found sleeping in bunks in a space thirty-two by sixteen feet. In Frank Ziegler’s lodging-house, 184 Jessie street, sixty lodgers and Ziegler.were arrested. This is a_l0-cent lodging-house and in a room twelve by twelve feet ten men were found sleeping. The third place visited was Willlam T. Wert's lodging-house at 34 Minna street, where fifty-two sleepers ere arrested. ~Wert had evidently been made aware of ,the intended visit of the officers, as he could not be found. There is a warrant out for his arrest. In a room eight and a half by ninte and three- quarters feet four men were sleeping. The cases were divided among the four <+ Police Judges and Judges Conlan, Fritz and Mogan agreed to hold court in the prison so as not to cause the waste of Ume and annoyance of having such a large crowd brought into their court- rooms. The men were ranged in batches before each Judge and they all declared that they did not know what they had been arrested for. The law was ex- plained to them and they were notified that although technically guilty of a vio- lation of the ordinance the real fault lay with the proprietors, who should have made themselves acquainted with the law. The prisoners were all dismissed, Judge Mogan remarking that it was a case'of poverty being a crime. The cases of the two proprietors, Dolan and Ziegler, were continued. Judge Cabaniss had his batch brought into his courtroom to be discharged. The “cubic air” ordinance provides that each occupant of a sleeping room must have 500 cubic feet of air, A violation of the ordinance in the cafe of proprietors of lodging houses {s punishable by a fine of not less than $50 and not more than $500, and in the case of lodgers by a fine of not less than $10 and not mere than $50. Chief Wittman says that these packed lodging-houses breed disease and for the health of the community the ordinance must be enforced. The Yodgers say that they get the tickets for a bed from ben- evolent socleties and they have no other place to go.

NEW YORK, Feb. 7.—Daniel Levy, alias «Harry Lewis,” will go back to Baltimore to answer/a charge of forgery if the com- plaint against him is preksed, but he is of the. opinion that he will able to so square his accounts that he will soon be at lib- erty and able to enjoy the $41,000 he brought with him from San Francisco. Levy comes from a respectable family. He was born and educated in Brooklyn, and he has several brothers now living with his parents on Union street in that borough. The police know him as an old offender, though they do not look upon him as viclous. He visited police head- AT et had made victims of his rela- tives.
