There is more than a littie agitation in the camp of the allied bosses, and Gage is listening to the suggestion that it would be good polities on his part to step out of the contest for renomination to the office he now holds and enter the race for the United States Senatorship. Some of the warmest supporters of Senator Per- kins apprehend that such a general read- justment of plans is in contemplation by Gage's managers. Politicians who are supposed to have inside sources of infor- mation would not be surprised if the an- nouncement of Gage's Tetirement from the gubernatorial race should be made in clear and convincing style to the San Jose convention. Political gossip goes to the | point of reporting that Gage's transfer- able strength would then be glven to Frank P. Flint of Los Angeles. Gage's repeated assertions in the cam- paign of 189 that one term as Governor of California would fill the measure of his political ambition are recalled. Signifi- cance is attached to Gage’'s recent an- nouncement of his candidacy for another term. He intimated that he would be governed by the wishes of the people. It is certainly clear to the Governor and to all of his intelligent counselors that the Republican voters are not clamoring for his candidacy. It is clear, also, to the minds of the ablest politicians that party harmony under Gage leadership is unat- tainable. Dissension in Gage Camp. There is not the slightest doubt that in- ternal dissensions exist in the Gage camp. The Burns men are sore and surly be- cause they know that Herrin has sup- planted the colonel in the confidence of the Executive. They know that Burns is on record as declaring that he would not do- politics with any man, high or low, that recognized Crimmins. They know, further, that Gage and Hderl'lin, aéler con- s colonel’s - declaration, re- sidering “the e Cri;nm‘ng ontinue and that the friends an B iiwes of the little boss on the State pay roll should remain there, “even if Burns demanded their dismissal. Three prominent State office holders who are known to be close advisers of the Governor tell Gage that the cause of the popular feeling against his candidacy is due wholly to his association with Dan Burns. They tell him that he cannot ex- pect to re-establish himself in the public confidence as long as Burns is recognized as the right arm of the State administra- tion. Meanwhile Burns is sawing wood. He has a clear notion that the hammers are going and is awaiting results. George A. Knight, a State officer who is drawing down a handsome salary as attorney to the State Board of Health, although a personal friend of the Governor, is so much chagrined over the political aspect that he announces his determination Mo keep away from the San Jose convention and devote his energy -to the trial of a law case in the up country. If he went to San Jose he might in the fervor of his eloquence and the frankness of his speech describe the true situation in the Gov- ernor's camp. Herrin’s Peculiar Position. Herrin's position is somewhat peculiar. He knows that he is on the eve of retire- ment_as political manager of the South- ern Pacld)co and would therefore like to win a victory before President Harriman abolishes the political bureau. While Her- rin is not a sagacious politician he knows enough to perceive that Gage, who won out in 1898 as the people’'s candidate, can- not win this year as the railroad’s can- didate. In 1898 the forces of the party were united to promote the election of Gage. Money was contributed by the merchants, the banks, the corporations, labor organizations and industrial insti- tutions. The war was on and young and old rallled around the-flag. General Barnes, E. F. Preston, ex-Governor Markham, Frank H. Short, Samuel M. Shortridge and many other able public speakers inspired the Republican hosts to great enthusiasm. The flag was sent to the front while Herrin and Burns were dlscreetly concealed in the rear, but ready to spring forward when the battle was done to grasp the fruits of victory. Her- rin is in close touch with leading repre- sentatives of the Republican State Com- mittee and knows full well that the task of raising money in the party for a sec- ond campaign with Gage as leader would be hopeless. The railroad company and the candidates for office would be com- pelled to bear the whole burden of the struggle. Herrin would not grieve if Gage should get into the Senatorial fight. Perkins, however, would immediately be- gin a revision of ich’s proposed list of candidates = for the Legislature from Southern California. The Senator trust- ed ch once but now speaks with re- gret of misplaced confidence and a bogus telegram. Enquist Is Mentioned. Al Euquist of this city is mentioned as a candidate for Democratic nomination to the office of State Printer. He is a pressman by trade and has many support- ers.

Shooting Is Claimed to Have Been the Result of an Accident. The police are making an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of Mrs. Pauline Smith, a colored woman who died at 207% Tehama street last evening from a bullet wound in the head. Thus far the evidence found by De- tective Armstrong tends to show that death was due either to accident or sui- cide. August Lind, in whose room the fatal shot was fired, and James Mikkel- son, his roommate, who owned the revol- ver, are under arrest and will be detained uniil the investigation is completed. According to tne stories toid by Lind and Mikkeison, the former called the wo- man to his room to assist him_in binding up a wounded hand. While Mrs. Smith was preparing to dress the wound Mik- kelson left and went down town. Mrs. Smith then noticed Mikkelson's re- volver lying on a table and inquired if it was ‘loaded. - Lind replied ‘“‘no,” and started _down the stairs 10 get some hot water with which to wash his injured hand. Lind claims that, he had just reachad the landing below when he heard the report of a pistol, and rushing back found Mrs. Smith prostrate on the floor “with a bullet hole in her forehead. He at once notified the police, but before an officer arrived Mrs. Smith was dead. Mikkelson says that he has not been in the habit of keeping the pistol loaded. He usually has the cartridges in a small bag, but wishing yesterday to use this bag for ancther purpcse he placed the shells in the revolver and laid it on a table. Lind explains that he was not present when Mikkelson loaded the revolver, hence did not know that there was danger in handling jt. He thinks Mrs. Smith toyed with the weapon and that it went off accidentally and killed her. Mrs. Smith leaves a child 2 years of age and a husband from whom she had been separated. WILL BANQUET AT POODLE DOB Snyder’s Candidacy -for Governorship May Be Announced, There will be a time at the Poodle Dog to-night when the warhorses of the Jef- nian Democracy begin to - neigh. Leading chargers of the party from all the way along the coast, from the red- wood forests of Humboldt to the orange groves of Los Angeles, will gather at the banquet board of the Monticello Club. Thomas Jefferson, of course, cannot leave the shades of Monticello to loiter at the feast, but his spirit will animate the orators and enjoin them to forsake the yellow idols and reavow allegiance to Jef- fersonian principles. Of course Jefferson was the greatest expansionist the world ever saw or may ever see again, and Bar- ney Murphy’s speech at the Monticello banquet to-night may evoke the greatest Democratic demonstration ever seen at the Poodle Dog. But Barney is not the only gem in the Monticello cluster. Hastening hither from the south is Isadore Dockweiler, prepared to exalt Jefferson dead and Snyder living. The hint comes that the fluent Dockweiler will launch the boom of Snyder for Gov- ernor. Barney Murphy, however, holds the post of honor as president of the club. As presiding officer he cannot launch his own candidacy, but he can reluctantly allow some other disciple of Jefferson to blaze the Murphy trail through Northern and Central California. Dockweiler, how- ever, comes fully prepared to respond to the toast, “Democracy South of Tehach- apl.” Of course this is a broad sentiment, but geographically considered it does not embrace Democracy south of Market street. Here is the full list of speakers and the toasts to which they will re- spond: “Obiter Dicta,” Frank H. Gould of San Francisco; reading of the Declaration of Inde- San . Fran- ickey ' of D. M. *"J.

CHIEF WITTMAN FEARS HE CANNOT BE PRESENT Fight to Increase Force May Prevent i Him From Going to Louisville 2 Convention. Chief of Police George W. Wittman is anxious to attend the international con- vention of Chiefs of Police, which will open in Loulsville, Ky., on May 7, but owing to his presence in this city bein; necessary to ald in securing the propose increase in the police force, it is doubtful’ if he will be able to undertake the jour- ney. He sald last night that the con- vention will be the most interesting and valuable of its kind ever held in this country.

The convention will last four days and the city of Louis. ville is muklni extensive preparations for entertaining the visiting officials. Tl LG e Dt Charged With Burglary. Joe Launde was booked at the City Prison yesterday py Detectives Reynolds and Dinan on a charge of burglary. He is accused of breaking into the room of Samuel Oliver in the Hotel Roma, 818 Sansome street, about a month ago and stealing a gold watch and chain and $29. He was arrested last Monday while. try- ing to dispose of the watch. Oliver, who lives in Portland, arrived yesterday and identified the watch.

The police are not making any investi- gation into the death of Joseph Cardiff of 561 Natoma street, as they are satisfied it was due to an accident. Captain Seymour yesterday produced a 'statement. which Cardiff made to Assist- ant ‘District Attorney Harris in the pres- ence of Detectives Dinan and Wren, his mother and the steward at the Emer- gency Hospital. In the statement Cardiff said that he was returning home about 1 o'clock in the morning of March 5, and while going upstairs one of the steps gave way and he fell to the sidewalk. He fell sideways on his back and struck on the back of his head. Two men picked him up and he was sent to the hospital. He would not sign the statement, as he did not belleve he was going to die. Attorney Harris said yesterday that while Cardiff was making the statement his mother kept interrupting and asking her son to say that he had been beaten and robbed, and he replied, “Don't bother, mother; I wasn't beaten and robbed, but fell and hurt myself.” De- tective Dinan corroborates Harris, ———— Overland Limited on exhibition, Oakland Pier to-night.

Claims /That for Four Years He Treated Her Cruelly. ‘“He has treated me with extreme cru. elty for the last four years. He has threatened to knock my brains out, cut me in inches and to take my life and that of my child, and also the lives of his two children by a former marriage.” Such is the tale of marital infelicity told by Annie E. Seeliger, wife of Ludwig See- liger, president of the Mission Meat Com- pany, in a complaint for divorce filed yes- Hale’s. for the first time at.......... days; sale Drice .......cvvviriniananiee terday. Knives, pistols and razors, ac- cording to her complaint, are her hus- | band's favorite weapons, and she alleges that he has for thé last four years threat- | ened to use them with such frequency ! that Her life nas become a burden. See- ! liger is a butcher, with an apparent inor- dinate desire to carve things, particularly his wife and children. Mrs. Seeliger lives with her husband and three children, two of whom are her husband’s by a former marriage, at 3318 Mission street. They were married in | August, 1896, and are in possession of con- ' siderabie of this world’s goods, most of which, according to the wife's complaint, is_conimunity property. i _ Mrs. Seeliger alleges that her husband one night in February of this year, threat- ened to “fix ner.” He told her, she al-| leges, that she was “old and good for nothing,” and that he would “cut her in‘| i‘ncrhes“ to prevent any other man getting er. Ordered Her Out of House. She alleges further that on another oc- casion he ordered her out of the house, | and would have hastened her departure | by tarowing her down stairs had he not | been prevented by Charles Rice and John ! Horning. She alleges also that he pointed | a pistol at her one night and wouid have | killed her had she not grappled with him. | She was so fearful, she alleges, that he | would carry out his threat that she sat up all night, being afraid that if she re- tired he would kill her. 1 “On one occasion,” alleges Mrs. Seeli- | ger, “he sharpened two razors in my pres- | ence and threatened to kill the whole,| family. He left the house, after uttering the threat to procure a pistol, saying, as | he did so, that when he came back there | would be’ lots of bloodshed. “I was so frightened that during his ab- ] sence 1 took the children and ran to the | home of my mother at 3383 Mission‘ street,” says Mrs. Seeliger. Mrs! Seeliger is of a religious turn of | mind and attends church regularly, but | her piety, she alleges, is objected to by | her husband. He says, she alleges, that all “church-goers are cheats,” and that they go “just.for a blind.” | Mrs. Seeliger asks for a restraining or- | der preventing her husband from with- drawing from banking houses $15,000 in cash which, she alleges, he has accumu- lated since their marriage. Too Much Mother-in-Law. James V. Sands, who is being sued for divorce for desertion by Marie M. Sands, | filed an answer and cross-complaint to his | wife's complaint yesterday and charged ! her with cruelty. He denies that he ever | attacked her with a carving knife and that he ever threatened to cut her throat. He admits that he left home, but alleges | that his leaving was due to the manner in which she treated him. He alleges fur- | ther that he left his home on numerous occasions rather than fight with her. He alleges that the cause of the quarrels in- | dulged in by him and his wife is his mother-in-law, Mrs. J. H. Meineke: Judge Seawell granted J. J. Donovan, a machinist employed at the Colonial Ho- tel, a divorce from Catherine Donovan yesterday for infidelity. John_Otis Brown, who was married to Eliza E. Brown in October, 1862, filed a suit for divorce yesterday, alleging deser- tion. Mary M. Willlams was granted a di- vorce from Homer Willlams by Judge Kerrigan yesterday. The . decree was granted on the ground of failure to pro- vide. ‘Willilam H. Stinson, paying teller of the Anglo-Californian Bank, who is being sued for divorce by Cora Virginia Stin- son, on the ground of cruelty, filed an answer to his wife's complaint yesterday. He denies-that he has ever treated Mrs. Stinson cruelly. Accuses Bookkeeper of Forgery. John M. Glennan of 2114} Geary street Swore to a complaint in Judge Cabaniss’ court yesterday charging T. W. Colt with, forgery. He alleges that Colt forged his name to two notes with the Austin Surety Company for $60 on March 3 and obtained the money. Colt was formerly bookkeeper for J. de la Montanya & Co., and Glennan knew him when he was emploved there. Glennan states that Colt has been representing himself as Glennan to a number of friends and busi- ness men and obtaining the loan of money on that representation. /Silk Embroidered Collar Tops, All colors, 25 cents. v HOSIERY. ] 1 to-day for regular 20c quality 12iC WoMnis TRIRA” LeNGTH LISLE FINISH HOSE.

Schaefer and Miss Mabel Miller, spent nearly all day yesterday searching in the neighborhood of Trocadero and Ingleside for clews that might lead to the discovery of Schaefer's wife and. mother-in-law, whose disappearance Tuesday afternoon led the family to fear that a tragedy had occurred. At 5 o’clock they returned to Schaefer’s home at 1126 Mission street, weary and discouraged, and much to their surprise they found the objects of their search in the house, comfortably en- sconced in easy chairs. The surprise was mutual, for Mrs. Schaefer and her mother, Mrs. Eva Mil- ler, had not read the newsmsef and did not kpow that an appeal had been made to the police department to find them or to_discover their fate. To the astonished detectives and rela- tives the women said that they left Ingle- side about half past 6 o’clock. They got off~the car at Sixth street to go to the Schaefer home, as Mrs. Miller was feeling ill and the daughter was afrald that her ened into illness if she took the mother to her home at 845 Mission street. Mrs. Miller became very much worse, they re- late, and the two went to a_Sixth-street lodging-house and took a room, where they passed thé day from Tuesday until yesterdfi' afternoon. Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Schaeffer decline to tell the name of the lodging-house where they stayed, and Schaefer is not inclined to discuss the episode. He is satisfied with their explanation and the detectives are bmthlnfi easily again, happy to have escaped the difficulties of another murder mystery.
