Excel Cardinal Speakers in Individual and Team Work. Team work, individual eloquence and a | clever setting forth of convincing mate- | rial won for the University of California | at the Metropolitan Temple betwcen ! | picked teams from Berkeley and Stan- ford. While the Stanford boys put up a fine fight, they were unquestionably ex- celled in every point. The hall was crowded, a crowd of U."C. rooters occupy- | ing the lefthand side of the balcony, the Stanford men holding the righthand side. | The boys kept the ball in a state of ap- | plause preceding the entrance of the de- | baters with their songs, yells and witty \ sayings. | When the decision was announced the | noise arising from the U. C. sympathizers | | would have made Market street on the | | night of the tie-up take a back seat. | | The judges were Judge M. C. Sloss, | | Judge R. C. Harrison and Judge F. J. | | Murasky. The decision was announced by | Judge Harrison five minutes after the close of the debate. The decision was, in accordance with the “extracts from inter- collegiate debating agreement,” obtained | by balloting without previous discussion. | | “President Jordan presided, and although | | he requested the audience to refrain from interrupting the speakers, the people could | not at times contain themselves. | The question for debate was: Resoled, That the Southern States should | grant the suffrage to the negro in accordance w the spirit of the fifteenth amendment; | Provided, that all question of the constitution- | ality of the negative's position be excluded. | The speakers from the University of California—Max Thelen, Walter Roth- | ctild and Ralph S. Pierce—took the af- | firmative side of the question, and Her- | bert C. Jones, George W. Leistner and Fletcher B. Wagner of Stanford argued for the negat The debate was opened | bs; Max Thelen of the U. C. team and | clesed by Walter Rothehild of the same | team. Each speaker was allowed twenty | minutes, the affirmative having ten min- | utes additional in which to close the ar- | vment. John F. English of Stanford and | F. M. Allen of U. C. acted as timekeepers. | ames Mofiitt gave a prize of §200 to the | victorious team. The Berkeley boys won the first debate for the William R. Hearst cup, which goes to the university winning the first three debates. The executive dymmittee of the Inter- collegiate Debating League is composed | of the following named: cCormick, J. F. English and omish of Leland Stanford Jun- | ¥, M. E. Deutsch, F. F. Goodsell | tern of the University of Califorma. | Lincolns and Humboldts Debate. | The debating societies of the Humboldt | Evening High School and of the com- mercial department of the Lincoln Even- ing School met in parliamentary discus- | sion last evening in the auditorium of the | Girls’ High School. | The question before the house was, “Re- solved, That the Filipinos should not be | given their immediate independence.” | Those who argued in the afirmative, rep- | resentipg the Humboldt School, were: | Thomas Forsyth, Frederick Dunstan and George Presley. The negatives (Lin- coln's) were Walter Trefts, Edward J. Rellly and Robert S. Lawlor. | The debate on both sides was powerfully | | carried through, the speakers showing an ! intimacy with the intricate subject that would have been worthy of well informed | parliamentarians. | So admirable.were the arguments and | so deftly handled were they that the| judges, Dr. W. B. Howard and Professor | L. T. Hengstler, were in long deliberation | before coming to a conclusion. { Ulfimately, Judge F. Dunne, the referee | of the debate, announced that for indi- | | vidual excellence of treatment of the | | argument George Presley of the Hum- | boldt School carried off the honors, but | the judges had concluded that the Lin- colns had presented the best general aver- | age, therefore the decision was in favor | | of the negatives. ‘ | URGES BIG INCREASE IN j NUMBER OF POLICEMEN | | Commission Makes Request of Super- i visors’ Fimance Committes for | Generous Appropriations. | The members of the Police Commission !and Chief Wittman appeared before the | SBupervisors’ Finance Committee yester- day to urge that the various appropria- tions asked by the commission for the conduct of the Police Department during the next fiscal year be granted. The com- | mission made a special plea that 184 addi- tional patrolmen be provided for. Chief Wittman explained that the proposed in- novation of eight-hour watches was pos- | sible only with the number mentioned. It | the Auditor’s recommendation for 100 ad- | ditional patrolmen were accepted it would | | be tmpgssible to properly police the city | |in certath districts. Wittman said: | “Under the charter we should be al- lowed 800 policemen, but we will have only 693 in all if you grant our request. It is a fact that we have had policemen | do painting, plumbing and carpenter | work, but we were compelled to do so be- cause no funds were provided for the pur- | pose. We absolutely need a patrol boat | | i i | { to watch property on the water front, and we will man her with policemen from the harbor station who have been engineers.” | Supervisor Loughrey sald the unions | | would object to detafling policemen to !run the engine, and Commissioner New- hall sald that the boat would save twen- | ty-five men on the land watch. Wittman | also urged the building of a brick stable, | at a cost of $5000, which would save $3500 | per year in rents, and requestefl that his men be relieved from doing repair work, and an allowance made so the Board of | Works could do the work. The commit- | tee took the estimate under advisement. AT X AL S il | | Four Prisoners Sentenced. | Judge Dunne imposed sentences upon four defendants yesterday who were con- | victed of petty offenses by juries in his | court. Thomas Hogan, who was tried for | | assault to murder for shooting at Police- man F. Callahan in September last, dur- | ing the strike, and who was convicted of | simple assault, was sentenced to five | months in the County Jail. A like sen- | tence was imposed upon John Kennedy, | tried for robbery in holding up W. H. { Cowan on the Barbary Coast and con- | victed of petty larceny. Fernando Villo, | tried for assault with a deadly weapon | and convicted of simple assault, was sen- | tenced to sixty days in the County Jail. George Caldarells, tried for assauit to murder for shooting at his uncle, Philip Caldarella, last November and convicted of simple assault, was fined $100, with the alternative of fifty days in the County Jail. ’ —_——————— Business Men’s Excursion.

Rulofson’s Wife Secures a Di- vorce. Says He Made Her Life Mis- erable by Repulsing Her Advances. To be told that she has become a source of annoyance and Irritation to a man upon whom she has lavished her affec- tiens for almost three decades is a fate | reserved for few women. One of the few is Mrs. Julia Rulofson, former wife of Alfred C. Rulofson, buyer for the firm of Baker & Hamilton and putative heir of the wealth of the late Captain Winslow G Hall. Under the kindly cloak of the legal phrase ‘“incompatibility of temper’” Mrs. Rulofson sought relief, and in the divorce court she was freed from a yoke which for several years has been solely the means of making her life miserable. The divorce was granted by Judge Heb- bard yesterday. Rulofson did not appear to contest the suit, though in his answer to her com- plaint he denied all the allegations made by his wife. Mrs. Rulofson appeared m court, accompanied only by her lawyer and Mrs. Clara Reading, her married daughter, whose testimony concerning the disposition of her father corroborated tbat of her mother. Mrs. Rulofson was visibly affected as she took the witness stand to tell of her husband’s cruel treat- ment. She sobbed hysterically and was only prevented. from breaking down through the kindly efforts of her attorney and the soothing words addressed to her by Judge Hebbard and Mrs. Reading. Composing herself as best she could she told the following story: 1 was married to Mr. Rulotson in July, 1873 We lived happily for several years, but I soon noticed a change in his treatment of me. He became irascible, fitful and ill-tempered, and wher I sought to show him any wifely atten- tion he would fly into a rage and revile and vilify me. I tried to Win back his love, but my efforts seemed to cause him displeasure, which he vented before his family. On February 16 of this year he left home on a business trip and on his return, about the firs: qf March, I again trled to regain my place ‘in his affections, but it was all to no avall. He told me that he no longer loved me and that I had become distasteful to him. He told me also that whatever love he had had for me had been alienated. He not only told me this, but also told others that he no longer cared for me, Mrs. Reading corroborated her mother’s testimony, describing her father’s fre- quent outbursts of anger and his treat- ment of her for several years prior to the commencement of the sult for divorce. Judge Hebbard in granting the decree of divorce awarded Mrs. Rulofson the cus- tody of the only minor child of the couple, Gladys J. Rulofson, aged 1§ years. PHELAN FILES ACCOUNT OF FATHER'S ESTATE Report Shows Property Is Worth More Than $7,000,000, Exclud- ing Deeded Property. James D. Phelan, executor of the will of his father, the late James D. Phelan, filed his first and final account of his ad- ministration yesterday. He also petitioned for final distribution. The report shows the estate to be worth $7,491,298 35, excluding property deeded by the deceased a short time before his death. One-third of the large estate goes to the ex-Mayor, while the other two- thirds goes to his two sisters, Miss Mary Phelan and Mrs. Frank J. Sullivan. SISTERS WOULD oMVE MURDERER Napa’s District Attorney Threatens the Misses Matthai. Charges That They Commit- ted Perjury in Attempt . to Free Brother. Special Dispatch to The Call NAPA, April 26.—The application of Frank Matthai, who killed George Stan- ley of Oakland in this county a few years ago in a dispute over a mining claim in Chiles Valley, to be admitted to bafl pend- ing his second trial has come up for hear- ing in the Superior Court on several oc- casions and has been continued from timo to time at the request of the defendant. Matthal was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to serve flve years in San Quentin. He appealed to the Supreme Court and was granted a new trial by that tribunal. When the case was re- turned to this county for another trial Matthal applied to be admitted to bail, and after giving the question careful consideration Judge Ham decided to grant the defendant’'s request and bail was fixed at $000. Up to the present he has only been able to obtain bondsmen in the per- sons of his two sisters, Misses Rose and Louise Matthai of San Francisco. Dis- trict Attorney Bell will not accept these sureties. The case was called in court again yes- terday, and at the request of the de- fendant's attorney, Wallace T. Ruther- ford, was continued until Monday meorn- ing for further consideration.. District Attorney Bell then made a startling statement in court. He sald that he desired to bring to the notice of the court the action of the Matthai sis- ters. He sald that they had sworn In court that they, or their family, owned property in Tehama County worth $10,000, whereas upon Investigation he found It to be valued at about $300; that they had sworn to the possession of property in Butte County worth $10,000, which, he said, he had ascertained had some time since been sold to the State for taxes. Such action, he declared, was an imposi- tion on the court which came very near perjury, and he desired to warn Ruther- ford, their attorney, that in case of sim- flar conduct in the future he might find it necessary to proceed against them for perjury; that he would not accept any of the Matthais as sureties on any bond. District Attorney Bell made a special trip to Tehama and Butte counties early in the week to investigate the property there and filed with the clerk of the court affidavits of citizens of those counties in support of his charges. This new phase In this murder case and the persistent fight the Matthal sis- ters are making for their brother’s free- dom are watched with interest by the citizens of Napa County.
