When the case of Willlam Kauffman slias “St. Louis Fat,” charged with the murder of Policeman Eugene C. Robinson on Valencia street, near Sixteenth, on Jan- uary 21 last, was called in Judge Cook’s court y rday, the Judge was informed that David Jacobi, one of the, jurors, was =t ck and unable to be in court. The Judge said that he would continue the case for another week, but if Jacobi had mot then recovered he would impanel an- other jury to try the case. Jacobi became il about ten days ago. —_———— Hogan Sent Up for Thirty Days. Jobn T.

He had been ar- rested twice previously on similar charges. San Diegans Hear Genr‘ SAN DIEGO, Oct. 6.—Thomas J. Geary was the principal speaker to-night at a Democratic rally on the plaza. The audi- ence was the largest that has “been seen in this campalgn with the ex- ception of those that greeted the two can- didates for Governor. The gathering was called to order by Chairman Magley, and the chairman was Thomas J. Dowell, for- merly City Treasurer. The. City Guard band gave a concert before the ‘meeting and a quartet rendered selections between | the speeches. 5 SOIRED B “AINET Members Occupy Block of Seats at Colum- bia Theater. Exclusive Organization En- joys a Bapquet at the Palace. il B, T | Fifty white shirt fronts on as many | members and friends of the ‘“Cabinet | lined up in a row at the Columbia Theater | 1ast evening and reflected the dazzling pic- | tures presented by ‘“The Strollers.” They made a “front” that would have attract- ed attention at any time or place. They | were the cynosure of all eyes in the thea- ter. evening. Only the initiated knew that Charles Wesley Reed had paid a wager by buying a block of seats for the “‘Cab- inet.” It was a grani array of ‘talent and it attracted as much interest as did the stars on the stage. After each act the aggregatfon would go out to stretch their legs and as they filed down the aisle every one “rubbered.” Every man in the party was faultlessly attired in a ‘“‘clawhammer” and sported a collapsable hat. For the first time in the history of the ! organization its members got together without swinging their hammers. All were in good humor and attested that the show was a good one; that Charles Wes- ley Reed’s sclection of seats could not have bcen better and that if Gavin Me- Nab had been in the house their cup of joy would have overflowed. At the close of the performance the fifty entered carriages and were driven to the Palace, where a sumptuous supper awaited them, *“Jim” O'Brien stationed a guard outside to keep “hungry Demo- crats” from breaking in and the fifty en- joyed the swell feed. During the dinner Governor Budd announced that a decision | had been handed down in the case of | McDonald vs. Hinton, and the initiated | knew this meant speeches were to be curtailed. The “Cabinet,” although made up of Democrats, used judgment in issu- ing invitations to the affair. Members of both parties were in dttendance. Among | those two took part in the festivities | were: Ex-Governor James H. Budd, John Drum, John J. Barrett, William P. Humphreys, Charles J. Heggerty, Arthur Fisk, Charles | Wesley Reed, T. T..

Chief of Police Wittman received a dis- patch from Captain of Detectives Titus of' New York yesterday to the effect that | Detective: Harry Reynolds had arrived | there and had arrested Alfred Pler, who | money by false pretenses. Pler had been arrested previously on a dispatch from Chief Wittman, but was released on a { writ of habeas.corpus, the Judge holding | thdt he could only be held on a proper warrant of arrest. : | ‘The complaining witness against Pler is Mrs. Annie Mantke, proprietress of a res- | taurant at ‘677 Mission street, and she | ewore out the warrant for his arrest be- fore Judge Conlan on September 11. Pler had been paying his addresses to her, and | told her in March of last year that he had been promoted from a conductor of a Valencia street car to take charge of a railroad in the south and had to give a guarantee of $2000. She gave him $1800 on | March 15 of Iast year on these representa- | tions, which she alleges were false. With | the money Pler went to the Buffalo Expo- | sition and from there to Vienna, where he represented himself as one of the big men of the Southern Pacific. —————— Notice to Passengers.

Gesualda de Luca filed a suit for $20,000 damages for slander against Antonio Gar- /bini yesterday. He alleges that the de- fendant in the presence of divers per- sons referred to him in the following lan- guage: “You are a thief; you rob every- body; everybody knows you are a thief; you stole from ‘me $50 and you stole from me $24; you stolé from your brother $7000.

HENRIETTA KRELING DECLARES - SHE IS VICTIM OF A CONSPIRACY Files Suit Against Mrs. Ernestine Kreling for an Accounting and One-Third Interest in Property, Which She Alleges in Her Complaint Was Left in Trust for Her by Her Late Husband and Is Held by Defendant i’b—-—_—————————h_,b S RS. HENRIETTA KRELING, widow of the late John Kreling, filed a suit for an accounting yvesterday against Ernestine Kreling, widow of the late Joseph and the late William Kreling. She ! also asks that she be declared to be the owner of a one-third interest in the busi- | ness formerly conducted by Kreling Bros. The audience was kept guessing all | T i | Benefit for Widows’ and Orphans’ As- and which is now in possession of the de- fendant by reason of her marriage to the wo brothers. Henrietta Kreling alleges in her com- plaint that her sister-in-law obtained the property through fraua, atded and abet- | ted, she alleges, by both her husbands. The p]ai&tlfl also alleges that in 1886 Er- nestine reling, who, d8 the widow of Josgph Kreling, inherited his interest in the business, and Willlam Kreling, a brother-in-law, who subsequently became the husband of Ernestine, came to the plaintiff and “prevailed upon her” to quar- rel with her husband John, saying, she alleges, that he was unfaithful to her. They suggested, she alleges, that she se- cure a divorce. Then, the plaintift charges, they conspired together and by representing to John Kreling that she, Henrietta, was spending his money in a riotous manner, prevailed upon him to deed his interest in the business of Krel- ing Bros. to them, thereny acquiring pos- session of the entire estate. John Kreling died in 1867 and his widow alleges that her late husband intended when he made the alleged deed that the property should be held in trust for her by Ernestine and William Kreling. She asks the court to so declare and prays for a judgment awarding to her one-third of the accrued profits of the business, which, she alleges, amount to more than $100,000. ‘W. H. Leah; manager of the. Tivoll, referring to ti suit filed by Henrietta Kreling, said last night: ‘‘There is noth- ing new in this action. Mrs. Kreling has brought more suits than I can remember and in each onc has made the same charges. We have defeated her in all the courts, and I fail to see wherein she benefits herself by trying again. The first time we had trouble ‘with her we turned over $250,000 worth of assets, keeping only the Tivoli property. Mrs. Ernestine Krel- ing did that in order to avoid extensive litigation. Mrs, Henrietta Kreling has absolutely no claim upon the property of Mrs. Ernestine Kreling, and we have doc- uments to show that she has none. The Buperior Court decided the suits in favor of Mrs. Ernestine Kreling and the Su- preme Court affirmed the decision. This suit is along the same lines and is worthy of no more attention than the others.” @ siviiiviminiinininilniuinieleieinininieit @ DISPOSE OF BOXES AT HIGH.

Smith, a carpenter, residing at 1867 Post street, fell fifteen feet from a scaffolding yesterday while working on a building at Seventh and Berry streets. The scaffolding upon which Smith was _standing broke under his weight, letting him down from the secend story to the first and inflicting a wound on the head and spraining his back. He was treated at the Emergency Hospital by Dr. J. V. Leonard, after which he was removed to his homme. S R e e Says She Withheld Money. C. F. Townsend has sued Clara Mahler before Justice Long, alleging that while she. was lessee of the Van Dyke lodging house at 330 McAllister street, on two- thirds part of the income as rental of the premises, she misrepresented to him the actual receipts taken in by her for tran- sient rooms and appropriated to her, own use about $280 of such receipts, in addition to certain sheets, pillow ‘slips and lace curtains to the value of $30. Praise for Le Conte. Rabbl Voorsanger delivered an address last evening at the Academy of Sciences on the late Professor Joseph ‘Le Conte, He referred to Le Conte as an eminent scholar, whose position in the scientific world was acknowledged and whose work placed him in the foremost rank of the greatest men of the nineteenth century, men who forced nature to give up her mysteries, that théir revealed blessings might subserve the happiness of mankind. . ik, Rubber.

The- attendance was a.great surprise to the committee having .the ' festival in charge and extra secretaries and’ markers were pressed into service to accommodate the large number of marksmen, - who wished to roll up a good score’to wind up the year in rifledom. pEE ‘Willlam Yaeger ‘of Colorado, who was | with the California marksmen ‘at ‘the late Bundes festival, again renewed. his ac- quaintances yesterday and demonstrated his ability as a marksman by making 72 rings on the honorary target out‘of' aj possible 75 George Keffel of San Jose also ‘took a very active.interest in the proceedings and made ‘'good scores, both on the honor- ary and members’ targets. ° i All- the interest in. to-day’s shooting was ‘concentrated on_ the honorary tar- gets and the ‘scores made were' very fihe. Five mer made 72 rings out of a possible 7. They were: -A. Strecker, D. B. Fak- tor, D. W. McLaughlin, Willlam Yaeger and P. H. Rulffs.

SAN JOSE, Oct. 6.—The Police and Fire Commission is, being rapidly shorn of its political prestige by the City Council, Un- der the old Mackenzie regime it cut quite a figure in municipal affairs, because on its say saloon-keepers were allowed to /| conduct. their business. Under the old order saloon men were obliged to get a permit from the commission before they could procure a license frofi the City Council. The privilege was much abused by the politicians in power, to whip the' saloon men into line for their ticket. To- night the City Couneil repealed the or- dinance ' granting ~the issuing of saloon permits by the Police and Fire Commis- sion, and hereafter it will attend to. th issuing of licenses. OWNERS OF LTS AN A POINT Books of Association i to Be Open for Inspection.‘ < The lot owners'in the Odd Fellows’ Cemetery claim a partial \ictory owing to a-decision arrived at yesterday morning. They. will: be permitted to examine the books of the association and a complete investigation into the business of the cemetery will commence at once. The 'old board of directors for some time past- has refused to recognize the lot owners'. claims’ that they should be per- mitted to make the fispection of the books that they, desifed. = Secretary Pen- lington refused to .grant their request after a recent ‘méeting, but Attorney | Countryman..produced a section of the | California code which makes such re- fusal' a- misdemeanér.’ The matter was | discussed before President Cowdery and other members of the board. As a result Penlington called" at-Countryman's office vesterday morning and stated that he ‘would be in his office at stated hours dur- ing the rémainder of the week. Countryman says there are several things the'lot owners desire to ascertain from' the books. First, the amount of salary the directors have been paying themselves; next, the exact cost of the | columbarfan ‘and crematorium, and, last- ly, how much has been netted from the sale’of lots and the sale of water, The attorney stated that the lot owners were in complete ignorance as to whether these figirés”had been presented in the treasurer’s report at the annual meeting. “They may have been,” he sald, “but, the 16t owners’have no_knowledse of them According to, my instruction the mode of procedure has been that people who have ‘bought 200-foot 16ts ' may have at the same tlme signed powers of . attorney, This they have done unknowingly, thinking, {|'perhaps, it was some form which had to be gone through to obtain lots. Then the directors have held their meetings on the proxies thus obtained. I am not saying or even hinting that there has been undue expenditure, but the matter will be an interesting one for investigation.” MAKES CHANGES IN DETEGTIVES Archie Hamill Will Be Ordered to the Park. Patrolman Braig Promoted to Special Detail in ths Upper Office. Chief of Police Wittman yesterday de- termined to remove former Detective Ar- chie Hamill from his detail in the upper office and will order him to report for pa- trol duty to the Park station under Act- ing Lieutenant Helms. In place of Hamill, Patrolman Harry M. Braig will be detailed on special duty in the detective department. The announce- ment of the change will be made to-day in the general orders of the chief. The removal of Hamill from the upper office will be received with surprise, as he was generally considered to be entirely | satisfactory. He was especially expert In detecting Eastern crooks and has an enviable reputation as a catcher of smooth pickpockets, diamond snatchers and other criminals of this class. Not- withstanding Chief Wittman’s reluctance in discussing the cause of Hamill's remov- al it 1s understood that his dealings with ‘women in the under world have not been entirely satisfactory. No absolute charges of dishonesty have been made against the former deétective, | but Chief Wittman believes he will fulfill | his dutfes in a more satisfactory manner as a patrolman. Harry M. Braig, the promoted man, has been acting as a patrolman on Powell street. He has an excellent record as an officer, and about four months ago he succeeded by a clever piece of detective work in arresting three burglars, among them the notorious ‘‘convict preacher,” Joe King, and recovering about five tons of plunder. For this he was called be- fore the chief and complimented and his detall to the upper office is a further rec- ognition of his ability and good work. MAKE A ROUGH HOUSE FOR TWO POLICEMEMN Belligereni Brothers Give Offlczis a Hard Tussle Before Submit- ting to Arrest. | Policeman Bick Skain has been having | his full quota of trouble recently, even | for such a position as a beat on Pacific street. \Sunday night he received a crown- | ing sorrow when, in company with Po- ! liceman Al Holmes, he took into custody Patrick and Thomas McGrehl, brothers, who were disturbing the Sunday night quiet of the denizens of Barbary Coast. The two policemen took their prisoners to the box at the corner of Kearny and Pa- cific streets without difficulty, but while waiting for the wagon the brothers turned on the officers and made a merry time. Thomas McGrehl, who claims to be a prize fighter, singled out Skain as an “‘easy mark’ and landed on him. The of- | ficer countered with his club and the! prize fighter took the count. In the mean- | time the other brother mixed things with | Holmes, but only lasted for part of the | round. | ‘While the prisoners were being booked at the City Prison Thomas McGrehl turned suddenly on Policeman Skain and landed a right and left before the com- bined force of jailers and policemen could fall upon him. When the two belligerent brothers were finally subdued it was found necessary to send them to the Cen- tral Emergency Hospital for a little plain sewing. They were taken back and charged with battery and vagrancy. Saturday night Policeman Skain was set upon by three men in the same locality and thrown to the street, but managed to escape serious injury and hold on to one of his assailants. He is just now recover- ing the normal hue of an eye which was | blackened in a tussle a week ago.

Fireman Falls From Height While on an Errand of Fescue. s 257 AR Fire broke out in the lodging-house oo~ cupled by Mrs. K. Adams at 1008% Mar- ket street, last evening. Smoke issuing from all portions of the building, which is a three-story structure located near the corner of Powell and Market streets, at. tracted a large crowd and the police with difficulty held the throng in check. Frank Lerman, a fireman connected with engine 15, was seriously injured by falling from a roof whither he had gone to rescue a woman who he understood was Iim- prisoned by the flames. He was treated at the City Receiving Hospital by Dr Millar and later sent to his home. According to the story of Mrs. Adams she was visiting Mrs. Howard, another tenant of the house, when she detected the odor of smoke. Rushing to her room she found that a coal oil lamp had upset, igniting a table and other furniture. Ser- geant Tom Green heard the woman’s cries for help and turned in the alarm. When the departmpent arrived it found several of the upper rooms of the place ablaze. Prompt action subdued the flames, but not before damage to the extent of $2000 had been done. Several tenants on the upper floors, including Mrs. Howard, lost their personal effects. David Cohen, & jeweler, suffered a slight loss. W. A. Strohmeirs & Co., candy makers, esti~ mate their loss at 3200, and F. W. Pitts, stationer, is out a similar amount. Frank Lerman, the fireman who was injured, was in. citizen’s clothes and not on duty when the alarm was sounded. A rumor was circulated that there were women on the third floor who were im- periled by the flames and the brave firs fighter immediately went to their rescue, In groping around in the dense volume of smoke he lost his footing and fell two stories to a roof below. He was imme- diately sent to the Reciving Hospital, where his injuries, a broken shoulder blade and minor contusions, were treated. Injured by Street Car.
