The park police, under Sergeant Heims, are determined to punish a class of of- fenders who have been taking advantage nightfall to violate park ordinanc and one arrest has already been mads. The use of automobiles on park thor- oughfares has been restricted by an act of the Board of Supervisqrs, and the noise-making iines are not permitted on the north drlve, the bridle path or in- tersecting avenues. This act was passed in consideration of the danger to life and limb, and was heartily indorsed by every person who ever drove an animal through the pleasure ground. The south drive was allotted -to the automobilists, and horse- men took this road at thelr own peril. Not content with the privilege of the south dr several people seem deter- mined to use the other thoroughfares re- gardless of the law. a dangerous rate of speed spin along the nerth drive during the evening and in the early morning hours, and several narrow escapes from accident has been the re- sult. The mounted policemen are not on duty at the time, and should an officer on fcot call upon the chauffeurs to clear the read, additional speed is given to the nuisances and no respect is paid to au- thority. Saturday night Sergeant Helms sta- tioned Policemen De la Guerra and Clark at the Stabyan street entrance of (ke park and ordered them to arrest any per- son who violated the law. An automobile managed by John Mumford came off the main driveway and the officers followed to a nearby-resort, where it stopped, and Mumford was taken into custody. -He was sent to:the park station and later was permitted to bail himself out. A policeman, much to the discontent of a couple of Mumford’'s lady companions, rode down .to the Hall of Justice in the automobile, and from there the prisoner was released at 2 a. m. Sergeant Helm says he will persist in making arrests un- tii the practice js stopped. of B e e S S S Y FrARS AN OPERATION AND COMMITS SUICIDE Retired Merchant of Stockton Leaves Physician and Ends Life With a Shotgun.

MAKES HIM FORGET ALLEGIANCE Deserter Robert Green Petitions President for Pardon. | Many Prominent Citizens of This City and Oakland Join in Appeal. Prisoner Scrving Sentence for Leav- ing Army to Elope With Late Cap- tain Garvey’s Daughte~, His Boyhood’s Sweetheart. A tale of childhood love, separation, reunion, elopement and jmprisonment is told in a petition containing the signa- tures of a hundred prominent men of | this city and Oakland that is soon to be | presented to President Roosevelt plead- {ing for the pardon of Robert Green of | | Oakland, who wears the stripes of penal | servitude on Alcatraz Island. Love overcame discretion in the young man while he was wearing Uncle Sam's uniform a year ago at the Presidio, and in a weak moment he deserted the army to run away and marry Miss Bertha Garvey, daughter of the late Captain W. S. Garvey of the First United States | Cavalry. Not long after the .~1npemem‘L | the runaway soldier was caught and sentenced by court-martial to serve two years at hard labor on Alcatraz Island, | besides being dishonorably discharged from the army and forfeiting all pay. | As he only began to serve his scnlvnce; on September 2, 1902, he still must re- main a year and a half in prison, unless he shall be pardoned. In Green’s own words he “now realizes that he made a great mistake, but at the | time did not consider the gravity of the | offense committed.” And he pleads that | as the offense occurred in time of peace | |and his previous record was good that | the sentencc was too severe. Incorporat- | ed in the stor: s his rale of youthful | {love, designed to move the softer feel- | | inzs of the President. It follow 'When a boy I became acquainted | with Miss Bertha Garvey anl] as children we became strongly attached to each other and always spoke of getting mar- | ried when we should arrive at the proper | {age.

Our attachment for each other became stronger than ever before; in fact, seeing her helvless situation I was possessed of a strong feeling that it was my duty as well as my greatest pleasure to make her my | wife and to give her such a home and protection as [.was abt In order to do this I made a strong and persistent | effort to obtain an honorable discharge from the army, but failing in thi my desire seemed to overcome my better judgment and on June 14, 1902, I regret to say, I deserted and was married to Miss Garvey at Pasadera.” Young Green plead that he is not a criminal but a patriotic | citizen and that, in view of the fact {of his previous honorable service and with the single excepticn of this of- fense, his record is without reproach, he feels that the chief executive will extend clemency and grant a pardon “not only,” he says, “that I may return to my wife | and her mother, where my services are so much needed, but also to wipe out the stain which mars an otherwise hon- orable record.” Mrs. Green, the heroine mance, still resides with her mother at Pasadena, anxiously awaiting the time when her husband will rejoin her. She has enlisted the interest of influential | friendg to get him out cf prison. Greeh is twenty-five years old and a | son of the late George Green, a soldier of the Civil War. He served an enlist- | ment of four vears on the revenue cut- ter Rush and subsequertly four years in the navy, before enlisting in the army.

If the assertions made by the Glove- makers’ Union yesterday afternoon prove correct there will be 300 glovemakers out on strike in this city to-day. Some time ago a committee.from the union and the | executive committee of the Labor Coun- cil prepared a wage schedule and sub- mitted it to the various glove factories for their approval. After considering it the proprietors claimed that if the sched- ule was put in effect it weuld prevent them from competing with Eastern man- ufactories. To meet the objections of the proprietors the schedule was modified and they promised to accept it. - The members of the union claim that the proprietors of eight of the shaps al- tered the schedule to suit themselves. Ac- cordingly a special meeting of the union was held yesterday and a strike was or- dered to go into effect against the eight shops .to-day. The officers of the union claim that twelve factories, including two of the largest factories in the city, have accepted the schedule as originally agreed upon and are abiding by its terms. The Labor Council will stand by the Glovemakers' Union and assist it in mak- $1 1¢ 432 Pine 232 Sutter 2800 California San Francisco Thirteenth snd Clay St s Oakiang To Cure Gripin 2 Days Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets ing its fight against the shops which re- fuse to come to terms.
