Actress Tells of Incidents in the Rapid Parisian Life. Special Dispatch to The Call. SALT LAKE, Utah, May 13.—Hattie De- laro Barnes, the divorced wife of a son of General W. H. L. Barnes of San Fran- cisco, according to statements made here, is the central figure in a breach of promise case, and a suit for money al- leged to have been loaned, brought in the Federal court against Clyde Shrop- shire, a Salt Lake lawyer. Shropshire, who came to this city re- cently from Kentucky, was formerly United States Vice Consul in France, and the testimony taken to-day deals with the ; life he led there after meeting with the actress who brings the suit. Mrs. Barnes is widely known through her portrayal o.l’ Madge in the play “In Old Kentucky, and through her appearance on_ the vaudeville stage with a pickaninny band. She declared that Shropshire promised to marry her. To soothe her grief and disappointment over his marrying an- other woman she asks $50,000. She also wants something over $2000 for money she says she loaned him. On the stand she swore that together they plunged into the | Paris social swirl when he was Vice Consul there in 1897. She sald she helped pay the bills, and for this purpose was ar times obliged to pawn her jewelry. They traveled over the United States to- gether, she said, and were supposed to | be_husband and wife. Shropshire testified that he tasted the cup of gayety in Parls with her, but that he paid her everything she loaned him and more. He said that he desired to leave her, but that she has pursued him over two continents with threats of ex- money. The trial of the two cases will last several days. IRISH FAIR ATTRACTS ENTHUSIASTIC CROWDS Dublin and Leitrim Give Entertain- ment and Are Ably Assisted by the Hibernians. Dublin and Leitrim booths had charge of the entertainment last night at the Irish Fair and the natives of both coun- ties crowded the pavilion in honor of the occasion. Professor Allen's band ren- dered its customary fine programme and the affair was voted a great success. The Anclent Order of Hibernians as- sembled at their hall, 120 Ninth street, and marched to the pavilion in a body. They took part in the festivities and min- gled with the crowd in the different booths. the ladies of Dublin an Lietrim and were charmingly entertained. and was loudly applauded by the spe: tators. All the attractions were well patronized by the visitors who attended the fair last night and the evening was one of the most successful since the| | opening. A merry contest is going | on to decide who lar young lady of the many different booths. The contest is waxing fast and furious and much rivalry exists betaveen the fair candidates. To-night is reserved for the County Kerry celebration and there is great hus- tle and bustle to make it an event that | will surpass anything vet given during the fair. Mrs. Galvin will have charge and with her many assistants she has been faithfully working to arrange a | fitting celebration. The Hackmen's Union met last night and voted to take 400 tickets for the | Irish fair. A committee was appointed to induce all the labor unions to send | delegates to _the fair on labor night, | ‘Wednesday, May 22. gl fe P IS ATTORNEY SAYS NICKEL ACTS ONLY AS SIGNAL Legal Lights Arguc Question of Le- gality of License in Telephone Slot Machines. The demurrer to the sult of the city and county against the Pacific States Tel- | ephone and Telegraph Company was ar- gued before Judge Seawell yesterday and submitted for decision. The sult is| brought by the city to recover $29,000 ! imed to be due on a license of $2 per | quarter levied on 14,500 telephones under ordinance 1589. Attorney Alfred Sutro argued on behalf | of the telephone company and Attorney | Brobeck, from the office of the City At- torney, spoke for the municipality. { Sutro claimed that the nickel dropped | in the telephone box did not beget ser- vice, as it acted simply as a signal. For this' reason, said Sutro, the telephone company should not be taxed for its nickel-in-the-slot telephones. Brobeck argued at length in opposition to Sutro’s contentions. He said that he was seeking the enforcement of an obli- gation empowered by law. Referring to | the signal part of Sutro’s argument, he | said the nickel might give the signal, but it is upon this signal that service is ren- dered. the most popu- —_————— DUNLAP AND BOYLE GUILTY OF LARCENY They Steal a Very Heavy Pump From the Mare Island Navy Yard. Oscar Dunlap and Thomas Boyle were | convicted by a jury yesterday in the Unit- ed States District Court of the crime of larceny, committed at the Mare Island Navy Yard. Third Assistant United States Attorney Ben L. McKinley conducted the prosecution. The evidence was that the prisoners took off a float attached to the training ship Independence, a_handy billy pump weighing 17 pounds and a quantity of suction hose, all belonging to the Gov- ernment. They were making for the V: lejo shore when they were pursued by the master-at-arms of the Independence, Being closely pressed they dumped the pump overboard in shallow water. They showed fight but were overcome and ar- rested by the master-at-arms and the Chief of Police of Vallejo. There was practically no defense, and the jurors, without leaving their seats, returned a verdict of gullty. . —_———— Lyon’s Case Continued. The case of William Lyons, who con- 2| ducts a saloon at 218 Post street, was heard before the Police Commissioners last night.

Chief Wittman, however, endeavored to subpena all the men whose names were aflixed to the pe- | tition, but many of them either dodged | the summons or failed to appear. Those that did testify said they had no particu- ! lar objection to Lyons’ place, but thought a saloon interfered with business at any place. The case was continued one week. Police Officer Quarles, charged with in- toxication, failed to appear for trial and was suspended, his hearing being set for 4 o’clock to-morrow afternoon. —————— TUnity Club Lecture.

Latter Attempts to Kill His Sister, Mre. Maria Dorfler. L. P. Matkin, who lives at 2572 Lombard street, was shot in the left hand last evening while trying to prevent George Martin from killing the latter's sister, Mrs. Maria Dorfler. The shooting took place at Martin's residence, %7 Harrison street. Martin was taken into custody by Policeman P. Sullivan and a charge of assault to murder was placed against Matkin declined to prosec\.ne Mar- tin, as he did not deem his injuries of any magnitude. Mrs. Dorfler was of a different mind, however, as she went to the City Prison and madg the charge on which her brother was arrested. Mrs. Dorfler-stated that her brother had often threatened to kill_her and but for the timely presence of Matkin he might have carried out his Intentlog. Martin had been drinking heavily for the last week and about 6:30 last evening he rushed into the room where Mrs. Dor- fler and Matkin were seated and velled, “I've come to kill you,” but before he could carry the threat into execution Matkin grappled with him. During the struggle the pistol went off and the bul- let plowed through Matkin’s hand. ‘When Martin saw' what he had done he dropped: the pistol and tried to make his escape. He rushed out of a side entrance into the street, but was pointed out to Officer Sullivan’by those attracted by the shot. Matkin went to a drug store at Sixth and Folsom streets and had his wounds dressed. He there identified Martin as the man who did the shooting. It appears that Martin is part owner in a slece of property occupied by himself and sister. Every month he is given his share of the proceeds from the rental of the building and immediately spends it for liquor. He was arrested a few months ago for vagrancy and was given sixty days. He has been in the habit of scar- ing his sister by telling her he would kill her and then end his own life. WILL NOT APPROVE KELLY’S APPOINTMENT AS A MATRON Civil Service Commission Gets Facs- tious With Police Commissioners Over One of Their Selections. The Civil Service Commissioners no- tified the Board of Police Commissioners yesterday that it disapproves of the ap- pointment of George F. Kelly as matron. Kelly is the photographer of the Pclice | Department, and in the notification to | the commission of his appointment his | name was written opposite the word | “matron”—evidently a clerical error. In a communication to the Police Board Secretary Edward F. Moran of the com- | mission ‘says: While this commission believes that your | honorable body has made due inquiry as to | the ability, of your appointee to fulfill the | many and’ various duties of the position to | which you have appointed him, and while we have no reason to doubt that said appoint- ment was made in all good faith, we yet feel | constrained to refuse our approval of the se- !lection of Mr. Kelly as matron, and hereby | assign the following reasons therefor: | 1—Under rule 21 of this commission, to | which you are respectfully referred, ‘‘the duties of the position to be filled, rather than the name by which it is called,” shall be consid- ered In filling requisitions. As we know of no duties attaching to the position of matron, ex- | cept those usually performed by persons whose | positions are properly dignified by that respect- ed title, we, perforce, dissent from the ap- pointment of a person whose abilities to prop- erly perform the duties of thé officg, have not been fully demonstrated, and of wHNose quali- fications, notwithstanding the action of your honorable board, there is & lingering doubt in the minds of this commission. In disapproving the appointment of your appointee, we do not desire to cast any re- flection upon his personality. We are officially advised, and therefore believe. that *he ap- pearamce of the appointee may have icd your hororable board, unwittingly, Into error. = We are informed that this appointee is of a grave, sedute and matron-like manner, of full habit and smooth and beardless face. Moreover, we understand, he is addicted in an extreme de- gree to many arts in which matrons must de- light, such as ping-pong and crocheting, and Is withal of a most delightful and _versatile genius.. It is sald, however, that he is ad- dicted to a habit which alone should debar him from appointment to_the position in which you seek to place him. In brief, it Is charged that your appointee chews plug tobacco, with- out removing the tin plugs. To this idiosyn- crasy this commission makes most positive ob- Jeczton. —_—— Seek Release of Hansted. Fred Hansted, who is under arrest on a charge of assaulting Thomas Garrect, secured a writ of habeas corpus from Judge Sloss yesterday. The writ is returnable before Judge Sloss to- merrow at 2 p. m. The writ was claimed on the ground that Hansted, who was ar- rested for a misdemeanor, is being held on a felony charge, ———————— City Hall Telephone System. Louis Glass, vice president of the Pagific States Telephone Company, informed the Board of Supervisors yesterday that the total cost of installing a private exchange telephone system for the City Hall will be 33378, exclusive of the telephones which must be rented at the special rates al- lowed the city. LABOR TROUBLE GROWG SERIOUS Probable Withdrawal of Plumbers From the Building Trades. General Strike of Tanners Threatened—Carmen Are Dissatisfled. The troubles of the local unions of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners and the Building Trades Coun- cil remain unsettied. The master build- ers are greatly worried at-the outlook and a mass-meeting of contractors will be held to-night for the purpose of de- vising ways and means for the settlement of the controversy. It was rumored last night that the plumbers had announced their intention to support the carpenters in their fight against the Building Trades Council. Owing to the fact that the carpenters of the unions which remain loyal to the council are being called off daily by business agents the plumbers have been losing considerable time during the last two weeks and they are making loud complaints in consequence. A committee of plumbers met last night and consid- ered the advisability of withdrawing from the Building ‘'rades Council entireiy and thus show Lheir sympathy for the broth- erhood carpenters in their fight, "The news of the probable action of the plumbers has fillea the unions of the brotherhood with joy. On the other hand the Building 7rades Council re- gards the situation one of extreme grav- ity. Should the plumbers carry out their idea, as they probably will, the Building Trades Council will practically lose 1ts fight. UNIONS ARE LOYAL. At a meeting of the new district coun- cil of the brotherhood last night reports | were received stating that the plumbers, plasterers, painters and lathers now af- filiated with the Building Trades Coun- c:l_absolutely refuse to quit work when ordered to do so by agents of the coun- | cil because brotherhood carpenters are ‘working on their jobs. The men of these crafts say that they are well satisfled to work with brotherhood men and they decline to submit to loss of time and money at the dictation of men who have nothing but prestige to lose in the fight now being waged. The promises of sup- port received from all quarters have greatly encouraged the brotherhood men to remain firm. Resolutions of sympathy and support were recelved from many out of town unions, including No. 194 of Alameda, No. 162 of San Mateo, No. 352 of Los An- geles, No. 642 of Eastyard, No. 663 of Palo Alto and No. 751 of Santa Rosa. All of the unions mentioned roundly de- nounced P. H. McCarthy, president of the Building Trades Council, as being re- sponsible for the troubles in which the carpenters are involved. STRIKE OF THE TANNERS. The strike of the tanners in the empioy of Poetsch & Peterson remains unsettled. A committee of the union visited the tan- nery yesterday and formally presented the demands of the striking employes for an increase of wages to the amount of 25 cents a day. The proprietors took the matter under advisement and informed the committee that they would reach a decision later in the week. . The firm in question is utilizing the time in putting in new_boilers and in im- proving the plant. Poetsch sald last night that he was willing to meet the men half way, but that he could not say he favored granting the demand as made. He was in ‘favor of establishing a piece- work system, by which the capable men would earn more than they are now ask- ing for. A plan to that effect will be presented to the strikers at the next con- ference. The total number of men out on strike is forty-eight. It was rumored in labor | circles last night that the employes of other tanneries are contemplating making similar demands. the strike of Poetsch & Peterson's men is successful other strikes are likely to be inaugurated. CARMEN NOT SATISFIED. At a_largely attended meeting of Divi- slon No. 205 of the Amalgamated Asso- clation of Street Railway Employes of America held last night at 117 Turk street the main topic of discussion was the new timetables issued by the United Railroads. Considerable dissatisfaction was expressed about some of the new time cards, which enabled the men to | earn but $3 2% a day and less. A letter drafted by the executive committee and presentéd to the grievance committee, requesting a change of timetables so that the regular men can earn $2 50 a day was unanimously indorsed. The hospital question was fully gone into and the whole matter was referred back to the executive committee to re- port at next meeting. The sentiment ex- pressed after several members and Sec- retary Rosenberg of the Labor Council had advised the carmen was to stick to the hours and wage question, leaving the minor matters for the future. Grand Jury Does Not Meet. Owing to the fact that vesterday was collection day there was no session of the Grand Jury. A quorum did not put in an appearance at the rooms. In response to the subpenas almost all the Supervisors reported at the jury’s chambers, but they made their visit in vain. The Mayor did not attend in person, but he sent his sec- retary to make an excuse for his absence, as he had gone out with Harriman and Governor Odell. ing, and soothin: itchings, and tions and i and especiall hers, and for 2o ey, TCUTICURA it for all the pu combines in O] (itic ' The Set 81, British Depot: 27.

Lazerlere, a well known society man of this city, is being prosecuted in the Police Court of Sausalito Township. The crime is of such magnitude that the friends of the dog have engaged leading counsel to prosecute the cruel defendant, and the friends of the latter have clubbed together and hired Judge James Lang- horne to save him. The trial will be held to-morrow night, and it promises to be a ‘“‘cause celebre.” It appears from the complaint in the hands of the Town Marshal that Mr. Lazerlere, “with malice aforethought,” ran an automobile laden with precious freight over the tail of aforesaid yellow dog, disturbing its peace of mind and lacerating its feelings, all of which was contrary to the peace and dignity of Sau- salito Township; that sald Lazerlere was negligent in handling the horseless car- riage and “auto’” have known better than to disturb the siesta of a dog sunning it- self in the roadway, even though said dolg is mongrel in breed and yellow mn color. In answering the complaint filed by the friends of the yellow dog Mr. Lazerlere sets up a cross-complaint, in which he al- leges at great length that he is not at fault and entitled to damages for arrest, ‘ra)se imprisonment and injury to his feel- ngs. In the answer Mr, Lazerlere admits having run over the dog’s tall, but denies &hl! gave pain to said mongrel or lacer- ed its feelings, but on the contrary con- stituted an act of charity in removh a superfluous part of its caudal append- age, as it would save it suffering from hydrophobia or other “ills that yellow dogs are heir to.” For a separate cause of action defend- ant Lazerlere sets up the following state- PR B%55.

Patrons of the fair were whisked around town at 5 cents a ‘whisk, and it was on one of these trips that defendant crossed the yellow dog; that certain habitues of the poolrocms, having enmity for the order- loving people of the township, incited the arrest and prosecution of himself: that his arrest caused him great trowble, as his friends were compelled to expend $10 bail money to secure his release from durance vile; that sald arrest and attend- ant trouble caused himself and friends to miss the incoming Sausalito boat, on which were certain well known soclety ladies who had been invited to attend a house party at the ‘Hutch,’ said ‘Hutch’ being the name of defendant’s country o other foreign Thus it skin and COMPLETE TREATMENT FOR EVERY HUMOUR, $1.00.
