ASHER No™ Blame Attaches to Accused Assistant City Attorney. Charge of Tampering With a Witness Is Found to Be Groundless. Attorney Hugo K. Asher of the City and County Attorney's office and Mrs. Margaret Newman, charged with prevent- ing and dissuading a witness in a felony case from testifying in court, were ac- quitted by a jury in Judge Cabaniss’ court yesterday after about seven min- utes’ deliberation. Asher in his testimony contradicted Mrs. Peck in all essential particulars and showed that she had for some reason or other misstated facts when she testified that she had only seen him at Mrs. New- man’s house on O'Farrell street and at the Francisco House on Turk street. He alleged that he met Mrs. Newman in Judge Mogan’s court for the first time in _his life, and she asked him to call upon her, when she would tell him why she did not believe the story of the little girl, Hazel Kelly. He called upon her and met Mrs. Peck, who spoke of the disgrace to her child and said it would be better for all concerned for her to take the child out of the city. Two days later he received a telephone | message from Mrs. Newman asking him | to call at once. He did so and she showed him a letter from Mrs. Peck in which she said she would drop the whole matter for $200, as she needed the money for expenses. CALLED ON MRS. PECK. He was asked to call upon Mrs. Peck that evening at 119 Turk street. He did so and produced the letter, asking her | what she meant by it. She told him she had consulted an attorney, who had ad- vised her to get some money before leav- ing. Asher told her that the father of the young man charged with the crime s ‘a-poor man and could not give her v money. She asked to see Rodriguez, the young man’s father, and was told he would be in the city next morning. She asked him to bring Rodriguez to 204 Turk street. ‘When Rodriguez arrived from Watson- ville next morning Asher told him that Mrs. Peck wanted to see him, and they called at 204 Turk street, but were in- formed by a Miss Squires that Mrs. Peck had gone to the Francisco House. They went there, and Mrs. Peck begged Rod- riguez to give her $:0, but was met with | a flat refusal. She asked Asher to re-| turn and he did so. He found she had | everything packed to leave with the ex- | ception of a skirt, and to oblige her he| went to the office and got some twine and | paper from the clerk to pack the skirt. | She had sent word to a saloon at 5 Ma- | son street for an expressman to call !or; her trunks, as she was going to Vallejo. EXPLAINS HIS MOVEMENTS. She then wanted him to go to Mrs, | Newman's for the little girl's things, but | he said Rodriguez would do that. He | walked with her to Sixth and Market streets, and she left him to go to 6 Lang- ton street and*from there to the wharf. She missed the boat. He saw her at 6§ Langton street later, and as she had been unable to find her trunk en the wharf he informed her he had made inquiry and it was all right. She asked him to be at the steamer at 8 o’clock, as she wanted him to look after her parcels, and he went there. She told him she had found her trunk, thanked him and he left her. He denied knowing of any money being offered Mrs. Peck or given her, nor had he ever advised her to leave the city, but she had done so of her own volition. He gave her his card when he visited her at 119 Turk street. Mrs. Newman corroborated Asher as| far as she knew, and this closed the case ' for the defense. Attorney Barrett said he would submit the case without argu- ment, and Assistant District Attorney Hanley followed suit. The Judge charged | the jury and after seven minutes’ delib- eration they returned with a verdict of not guilty. Asher shook each juror by the hand as he left the box. The police were notified yesterday that | Sinnon Rodriguez had been arrested at Watsonville on the warrant charging him with the same offense and he had been | released on $250 cash bail.

The Superyisors' joint Committee on Judiciary -and Fire vesterday considered the objections raised by the Board of ‘Works against the alterations to be made | to Metropolitan Tempie to convert it into | a theater, The Board of Supervisors | granted J. B. Lankershim, the owner of | the bullding, a permit to alter the struc- | ture, but Commissioner Manson contends | that the building will not comply with | the terms of the theater ordinance, Attorney Alex Vogelsang argued that the alterations would make the buflding | safer than it is at present, as the seat- | ing capacity would be reduced to 1200 and | the winding staircase at the _entrance | would be done away with. Vogelsang | said that Selby C. Oppenheimer, the les- | see, had already entered into various | contracts and was paving $1000 rental | monthly for the place. The owner had donated the organ, which cost $12,000, to Archbishop Riordan, who was having it | installed in the San Mateo Seminary. The committee decided to have the Fire War- | dens report as to whether the altera- | tions will insure the safety of the bulld- ng. ————— BACTERIOLOGIST KELLOGG RESIGNS HIS POSITION “Zip,” a Freak at the Almshouse. ‘The Board of Health yesterday accepted the resignation of Dr. W.

On the recommendation of Health Of- ficer O'Brien the following premises were condemned and ordered demolished: Three-room house at 18 Olive avenue, Chi- nese washhouse between 617 and 619 Fell street, washhouse at 405 Oak street and 2 building at 428 Clementina street.

HANNAH NELSON, moth- er of the late Mrs. Charles L. Fafr, arrived last evening from her home In Newmarket, N. J. She is accompanied by her son, A. G. Nelson, who conducts a general merchandise business at Plainfield. On the arrival of the train at Sixteenth- street station, Oakland, Mrs. Nelson was taken to the home of a friend at Berke- ley. She will come to this city to-day and meet the attorneys of the Fairs at their offices. Mrs. Hannah Nelson is a woman of 70 years and ghe was greatly fatigued by her journey across the continent. Joseph Harvey, the life long friend of the late Charles Fair, and Charles S. Neal, mana- ger of the Fair estate, went to Reno Lo meet Mrs. Nelson and her son and trav- eled to Oakland with them. Harvey and Neal also met Charles J. Smith, a brother of the late Mrs. Fair, at Reno, when he was journeying to this city from Boulger Creek, Colo. TOLD CONTENTS OF WILLS. A. G. Nelson came last evening with Harvey and was interviewed at the Oc- cidental Hotel by a Call reporter. - He seemed perfectly satisfied with the pres- ent arrangements and stated that so far as he was concerned there would be no lawsuit. He had been told by Harvey the contents of both wills and what as a relative of the late Mrs. Charles Fair he entitled to. L “My mother and I will remain hfire till after the funeral,” said Nelson. ‘“There will be no lawsuit. We all have the great- est confidence in the Fairs and feel that they will treat us squarely. I am sure that we will get all we are entitled to. “The printed reports that my mother made the statement ‘that she would get all the way from four to elght million | dollars is incorrect; she never made any such statement. We never knew the con- tents of Mrs. Fair's will, but in her cor- respondence with us she always told us that she would look out for us. I do not know how many more of the relatives Wwill come out here. I was not authorized to represent any other members of my family. We have not brought any law- yers with us and have not so far engaged any.” CONFER WITH HARVEY. Nelson and his half brother, C. J. Smith, held a long conference with-Harvey last night. Fred Nelson, a hotel proprietor of Plainfleld, N. J., was present at the con- He is a nephew of the ,ate Mrs, Charles Fair and arrived in this city a He is accompanied by his wife. Harvey says that he is sure that there will be no litigation and that the Nelson family will be entirely satisfied with the offer that will be made them by the Fairs. It is not generally known that the Falrs will authorize Hermann Oelrichs to fn- form the relatives of Mrs. Fair that they can take possession of certain properties of her estate. To this estate will also probably be added a sum of money. What the amount will e has not yet been set- tled upon. “The details of the compromise have not yet been discussed. It is ex- pected, however, that the preliminary ar- 1angements will be talked over at to- day’s meeting. C. J. Smith, the full brother of the late Mrs. Falr, was seen last night. He had nothing new to say about the matter. He has been cautioned by the friends of the late Charles Fair to not discuss the case with the members of the press. He seemed in good spirits and again assured a Call reporter that he felt certain the matter would be settled without an ap- peal to the courts. FARNHAM SEEKS CONTROL. The arguments on _the application of Public Administrator Farnham for special | letfers of administration on the estates of Mr. and Mrs. Charles L. Fairwere heard yesterday afternoon by Judge Cook. The attempt on the part of the Public Ad- ministrator to prove the death of Mr. and Mrs. Fair by telegrams passing between Hermann Oelrichs and his wife and Her- mann Oelrichs and Mrs. K. Vander- bilt gave the arguments a rather wide range. Judge Cook declined to force the Western Union Telegraph Company to produce the telegrams on the subject of the dGeath of the Fairs until the Public Administrator had first demonstrated to him that the death of persons occurring in a foreign country could be proved by the introduction of telegrams which on their face were hearsay testimony. Attorneys Greene, Dunne and McGowan appeared for Farnham, while Attorneys Heggerty and®'Madden were in court for the Fair heirs. At the outset of the case two Western Union telegraph operators were called to the stand to testify as to the telegrams which the Oelrichs received and sent in reference to the death of Mr. .and Mrs. Fair.

It was orig- inally arranged that the bodies be Wwith- drawn from the Church of the Madeleine at § o'clock this afternoon. At that hour two undertakers’ vans were waiting at the door of the vault to receive the cof- fins, when orders came sending them away till half past 9 o'clock to-night. At this hour the vans were again on time, but the removal of the bodles was again countermanded and it is believed tneir removal has been postponed until an in- definite date, In the meanwhile lawyers representing the families of Mr. and Mrs. Fair have been closeted at the American consulate here all the evening with Consul General John K. Gowdy, who, it is understood, cabled Washington earlier in the day for Ipstructions in the matter. It is impos- sible definitely to ascertain the object of this consultation, but it is reported that the lawyers representing one party de- sire that a post mortem examination be held before the bodies leave France. Gowdy has received no reply to his cable- gram addressed to Washington. Manager Ellis of the Hotel Ritz, where the Fairs had apartments at the time of their death, has charge of the shipping arrangements. When gquestioned to-day he was very reticent. He said the ship- ment of the bodies had been postponed because definite instructions for forward- ing them had not been received from the famlly of Fair. He professed to know no cther reason why they should not be moved, and said they would not be ship- ped until such orders had been received. ANOTHER LEGATEE LOCATED. Frank Smith, Mrs. Fair's Brother, Is - in State, REDDING, Aug. 22.—Brief mention has been made - in connection with Mrs. Charles’ L. Fair's heirs that she had a brother, Frank Smith, who is put down briefly as “in the West.” It seems that Frank Smith went West a number of years ago and the Fair-Smith families have lost track of him. It transpires that he is'a resident of Delamar now. He has resided in this county about a year, working sometimes in livery stables and some- times as a bartender. At present he is out with friends on a hunting and fishing expedition in the mountain fastnesses of Northeastern Shasta County, ‘and has not yet heard of the automobile episode. He has often been heard to speak of his wealthy sister and of his brother-in-law’s fortune, say- ing that he might have lived with them in"ease, but having contracted bohemian habits he preferred a wandering life. As soon as ank Smith returns from the mountains he will take the necessary steps to establish his lawful claims to a portion of the Fair millions. L e e e e ] peared for the telegraph company and he strongly objected to the answering of any questions concerning the telegrams. Wood based his objection upon the ground that the prying into the private communica- tions between man and wife, especially where no relevancy to the matter in court was established, would be a direct blow at the privacy of the company and the sacredness of communications of the kind sought to be introduced. Attorney Heggerty made a brilliant argument on the subject of confidential communications between man and wife and he also argued that even if the telegrams were intro- duced in evidence they would not consti- tute legal proof of death. Hermann Oelrichs was called to~the stand by counsel for the Public Ad- ministrator, He admitted having received telegrams from his wife concerning the death of Mr. and Mrs. Charles L. Faf, but he was not compelled to aivulge their con- The matter was continued until -this morning at 11 o’clock. Coroner Leland Is Seriously IIl.

Assassin of Policeman Says He Was Not Given a Fair Trial Frank Woods was yesterday found guilty by a jury in Judge Carroll Cook's court of murder in the first. degree in shooting Police Officer Eugene_ C. Robin- son on the morning of January 21 last. The jury retired after receiving their in- structions at 10:40 a.' m. and announced their verdict at 12:15 p. m. Woods will be sentenced next Saturday. At the request of the attorney of the defendant, Judge Cook filed a written charge to the jury. The court informed the jury that they had heard the testi- mony and the law by which that testl- mony was to be weighed and under which it was to be applied. The Judge then pro- ceeded to expound the law governing the case. He explained the meaning of the terms ‘‘reasonable doubt,” ‘burden of proof” and ‘‘malice aforethought.” The Judge concluded his charge as follows: 1f the jury finds a verdict of murder of the first degree the law permits them to award the penalty. This may be death or imprison- ment for iife. Should the jury find a verdict of guilty of murder of the first degree with- out affixing the penalty the law then adjudges the penalty and that penalty is death. In ap- portioning the penalty the lawmakers have assumed that homlicides of the same general nature may be characterized by different de- grees of atroclty and have left the severer penalty to be applled to the higher offenses, in the sound and discriminating judgkment of the jury. y On the conclusion of the charge the Jurors retired to the jury-room. s the time went slowly by Woods began to look more cheerful and he nonchalantly smoked a cigarette while chatting with his attorney. At 12:15 p. m. the jury filed in and were polled, the following answering to their names: Hugh McNeeley, Ed S. Tyler, A. J. Garibaldi, Alex Dreyfus, Ed M. Hood, R. Collins, James H. Garratt, John Gatte, Meyer Lindheimer, Isadore Gans, Albert H. Merrill and Charles Kaufman. On being asked by the Judge if they had arrived at a verdict, Mr. Merrill, the fore- man, stood up and sald, ‘“We have,” and handed the verdict to the bailiff, who presented it to the Judge. After glancing at It, the Judge ordered Mr. Merrill to read it. The jury found Frank Woods guilty of murder in the first degree. An exception was noted by the defendant’s attorney. The Judge ordered Woods to appear for sentence next Saturday. It was expected that the jury would fihd a verdict within a few minutes, but four of the jurors stood out for imprisonment for life and it was nearly two hours before they were | won over to the majority. Whnods did not seem to worry over the verdict. He complained that he had not received a fair trial and that he had been prevented from calling some important witnesses for his defense.

On August 6 Williams read an article in a newspaper that a man had been killed by the electric cars on the San Ma- teo line. He thought the man might be his son, and went there. When he re- turned he told his wife that the body was that of their son and he had buried it in Redwood City. Instead of going back to his work, his wife says, he went to the Cafe Royal and played poker. Nothing was heard of him till August 9, when his wife learned that he had been that morn- ing picked up by a policeman and taken to the Recelving Hospital. Mrs. Williams called upon Sergeant Per- rin, who is a friend of the family, and he | accompanied her to the hospital, where they saw Williams. He was taken home in an ambulance that night. Next morn- ing; he returned to his work, and on Aug- ust 15 met with a slight accident. The foreman was surprised at his carelessness, and thinking he was acting queerly ad- vised him to go home and take a rest for He went home, and called the next morning for his pay. That was the last seen or heard of him. Mrs. Willlams told Detective Dillon yes- terday that she had discovered the man who was killed on_the San Mateo line was not her son, and shescould not under- stand why her husband should have mis- led her. Dillon Jecided to visit every hospital in the city in the hope that Wil- liams might be found. Williams is 47 years of age, about six feet tall, with dark complexion and mustache.
