Fehneman and Walter S: Moore Get Full Share of the Patronage. | Official Record Relating to Partial Disbursement of Special Health Appropriation of One Hun- dred Thousand Dollars. —_— Gage wants an appropriation of $100,000 | from General Otis of the Los Angeles Times. Before this sum is paid the citi- zens of the south may want to know all the particulars concerning the disburse- ment of $100,00 appropriated by the last Legislature for use by the Governor in the betterment of the State’s health. It is roughly estimated that the Gage push | in Los Angeles numbers one hundred and therefore if the sum of $100,000 should be equally divided among the active political supporters in the south, each of the push would receive $1000. The chief mogul of the business ad- ministration does not announce that he will disburse the amount claimed from Otis in the same style that he expended the sum obtained from the State treasury, but it is obvious to every one that his campaign is in sore need of help. FEHNEMAN WELL CARED FOR. In deference to the many inquiries from | the south, The Call has obtained from the official records the amounts paid from the heaith appropriation most_ gifted push belonging to the Los Angeles transplant—Ben Fehneman and Walter Moore. The vouching for Fehne- man_began in May, 190, No. 15,477, on which he obtained 3246 66 of the taxpayers money from the State treasury. On voucher 1 in July he pulled out $200. 'For six consecutive months thereafter on | vouchers numbered respectively 1310, 2241, 333 he drew $100 per | 2083, 4333, 4952 and 6336 month. On voucher 629, January, 1902, he got $50. At the outset of the graft he served the business administration as “San Francisco secretary’” and ‘“acting secretary.” Later on he figured on the payroll as “purchasing agent.” To the Los Angeles push rank counts but little. amount drawn _as “secretary’ and the amount collected as “purchasing agent.” It all came out of Gage's health appro- priation of $100,000. The event which is bound to create a tion in the camp of the southern is that Fehneman has received whereas according to fair aivi- with the other ninety-nine of the sion push gang he should have obtained but $1000. WALTER MOORE’S ACCOUNT. act is revealed by a disbursements for ‘Walter Moore did not har: tizens of Los Angeles who are familiar wita Moore's methods and know something of health promotion. get but $8 more than his the enterprise he displays in reaching the | will_at first be inclined assertion, but The Call is the proof, in the pe of a transcript of the vouchers op I “ontroller’s office. His account larger than public treasury ehneman’s, as it an are embra but the aggregate of the cums drawn is only $1008. This is $8 more than his share on an equal division of the en- tire appropriation to one hundred of the Los Angeles p Moore may make restitution to the tune of 38, or he may decide to reckon the amount as on parole.

Robert Crowley, who for twenty years has been a salesman in the employ of Murphy, Grant & Co., met with a se- rious accident yesterday morning, and as a result suffered the amputation of his left leg below the knee. Crowley and a friend were taking a bicycle ride in the vicinity of San Mateo. While enéleavor- | ing either to pass or to get out of the way of a heavy wagon Crowley was knocked from his wheel and fell beneath the wheels of the wagon. One of the wheels passed over his left leg below the knee, shattering the limb in a frightful manner. The injured man was taken to St. Mary's Hospital in this city. He was placed under the influence of anesthetics, and after the injury had been carefully examined it was decided that in order to save his life the limb would have to be amputated directly below the knee. The operation was successfully performed by r. Bailey. L ————e————— FELL OVER ROPE.—Mary E.

ARRESTED FOR ASSAULT WITH INTENT TO MURDER George Bisear—PTrei Shots at a Man ‘Who Makes a Slighting Remark. George Biscar was arrested last even- ing by Policeman Max Fenner for taking a shot at“J. Kauruzar on Jessle street. According to the complaining witness’ Story he was returning home from work when he met Biscar and made an un- pleasant remark to him. The latter im- mediately drew a revolver and fired a shot at him. Kauruzar grappled with his assailant and wrested the revolver from him, the weapon becoming emptied of cartridges in the struggle. Biscar ran away and was pursued by Kauruzar wita the empty revolver. The two men raced up First street to Montgomery street,thence to Bush street, Where the crowd disarmed Kauruzar, un- der the impression that he was fcllowing Biscar with the intention of killing him. Policeman Fenner took both men to the Hall of Justice, where the tale was final- ly unraveled. Biscar denied shooting at Kauruzar, but there were several wit- nesses who bore out Kauruzar's state- ment. The trouble between the two men is said to have arisen over attentions paid by Biscar to Kauruzar's mother. —_——————— ‘Will Furnish Union Label. ‘When the Supervisors’ Printing Com- mittee began to award the contracts for printing and bookbinding yesterday W.

The convention was called to order by Chairman Castle. Thomas Johnson of Sonoma offered a resolution providing for a free State mar- HARRY without much debate. J. George Smith, who during the session Tuesday tried to force a substitute for the first section of the report of the com- mittee on platform and resolution, at- tempted to address the meeting. He was asked whether he was an affiliated so- cialist, and was told that if he was his name would be stricken from the roll of delegates. Smith replied that he desired his name stricken from the roll, and he was quickly accommodated. Nominations for Governor were then de- clared in order. HINES COUNSELS CAUTION. John Hines of San Jose claimed the floor and said that he considered the con- vention had arrived at the most impor- tant part of its work, and he felt that it was upprepared to nominate candidates. He urfed great caution and deliberation and moved that an adjournment be taken, subject to the call of the State Central Committee. George W. Monteith opposed the motion and said that the delegates had got the whole situation in their hands now and if they hesitated they were lost. John Aubrey Jones was in favor of tem- porarily deferring the nominations. T. H. Horlan of Colusa thought the adjourn- ment of the meeting would be a great mistake. He opposed it and said he hoped the gentlemen of the convention would vote against Hines’ motion. They had been called from long distances, he said, for the very purpose of making nomina- tions, and he demanded that they go ahead and name a ticket. J. L. (Riddel of Santa Clara believed in going slow, while Thomas Johnson of So- noma said he felt that if they postponed the nominations they would never be able to get such a number of delegates to- gether again. LLOYD DESIRES TO WAIT. Charles E. Lloyd of Alameda County next spoke in favor of deferring the nominations, and suggested an adjourn- ment until the Fourth of July, when he felt sure they could have two or three hundred delegates present If the conven- tion was held in San Francisco, Oakland or San Jose. It looked at this point as if those op- posed to the immediate nomination of the ticket would win, but Johnson of Sonoma moved that the motion be lail on the table. The second motion was seconded by W. P. Squire of San Jose and it was carried. Before the close of the morning session the name of Dr. G. C. Adams, pastor of the First Congregational. Church, was added to the roll of delegates. ‘When the convention met in the after- noon the work of nominating the State ticket went along quickly and smoothly. The speeches were short and to the point and most of the nominations were made by acclamation. BALLOTING FOR GOVERNOR. The first and most important nomina- tion was that for Governor. Nathan E. Flint of San Francisco, in a characteristic speech, placed in nomination George W. Monteith of San Francisco. T. H. Horlan of Colusa seconded the nomination. J. L. Riddel of Santa Rosa placed in nomination W. P. Squire of San Jose. John Hines of Santa Clara, in seconding the nomination of Squire, said he was doing something that gave him more pleasure than anything he had done for several years. “In seconding this nomi- nation, fellow delegates,” 'said he, “I bring you the assurance of a great vie- tory. If we nominate this grand Union soldier we shall e no mistake.” J. K. Phillips next spoke of the great work that G. W. Monteith had done for the organization. The nominations were then closed and balloting began. On the first ballot Squire was nominated. Monteith arose before the vote Was announced and moved that the nomination be made unanimous. It was so ordered. Squire in a brief speech thanked the delegates for the honor conferred on him. “If it be God's will,” he said, “that I be elected Governor of this great State, I in- tend to earn a record for honesty, jus- tice and morality. I believe in the saying, Vox Populi, Vox Del.” DRAKE IS NOMINATED. J. K. Phillips placed in nomination Francis Drake of Los Angeles for Lieu- tenant Governor. B. A. Meyer second- ADVER!

DEMANDS COIN AND PROPERTY Percy, Travers Brings Suit on a Peculiar Contract. Percy B. Travers, who is connected with the firm of Burnham, Marsh & Co., real estate and insurance brokers, has filed a suit in the Superior Court against Thomas J. Fahey, administrator of the estate of his mother, Mrs. Catherine Fahey, who died in this city January 3, 1%1, to obtain $15,000 and also proper situated on the northeast corner of Pa- cific and Taylor streets, all of which he claims belongs to him under a contract f”y?red into between himself and Mrs. ‘ahey. There were two contracts made. The first was drawn up in 1884 in Dublin, Ire- land, where Travers lived with his father, a wealthy land owner. In the same year Yravers met Mrs. Fahey, who was travel- ing with her daughter Teresa in the old country. 'Mrs. Fahey took a fancy to Travers, as did her daughter, and an agreement was reached, under which Travers was to receive 315,000 and the property mentioned, providing he married ‘I'eresa and went to San Francisco to live. Travers married the daughter and came to San Francisco, much against the will of his father, so he says. On arriving bere he demanded that Mrs. Fahey fulfill her part in the contract, whereupon Mrs. Fahey stated that it would be impossible for her to do so, as she had a number of large demands to pay on her property, but proposed that they enter into a new contract, making the debt payable upon her death. Travers, wishing to be agree- able, consented to the second comtract, and all went smoothly untd_June, 1396, when, during the absence of Travers, his wife brought a suit for divorce on the ground of desertion, but at her_own re- quest the case was dismissed. Later, in May, 190, while in Chicago, Travers brought suit for divorce on the ground of desertion and succeeded in getting a de- cree. The only child, a boy of 13 years, was given into the care of the little fel- low’s mother upon the consent of Travers. Although Travers has written many times to his former wife, asking permis- sion to visit his son, his lettess have been unanswered, he says. Travers will later ask the court to ar- renge_that he be allowed to see his son. Mrs. Fahey died on July 3, 191, having made no arrangements for the payment of her alleged debt. No part of it has been paid. Shortly dfter the death of Mrs. Fahey Mrs, Travers married Joseph F. Maloney of Oakland. They are living there at present. Another Daylight Excursion to Lake Tahoe.
