Pictures Prove Mute but Potent Evidence in Divorce Suit. el Rl John H. Danz, a prominent butcher, has | a fondness for Sunday picnics, and while on his weekly outings a penchant for pa- tronizing the tintype maker. To these facts he owes his undoing, for yesterday when the suit for divorce brought against him by Marion J. Danz was heard by Judge Murasky tintypes showing Danz with his arms around the neck of a wom- not his wife, and also showing him holding upon his lap another woman not | related to him by marriage or otherwise, were offered in evidence. The pictures, with the evidence offered showing him to be a brutal husband, were sufficient for Judge Murasky, and he granted Mrs. Danz an interlocutory -de- cree of divorce on the ground of cruelty. Mrs. Ellen Williams is the plaintiff in a suit for divorce filed yesterday against Frederick G. Williams. They were mar- ried in Stockton In 1883. Mrs. Williams charges her husband with treating her cruelly, alleging that he has beaten and struck her on numerous occasions. She also charges that he has called her vile names. They live at 53 Ash avenue. Desertion is the ground for divorce named in a complaint filed by Agnes Barbee against H. B. Barbee. They were married in September, 1892. Mrs. Barbee alleges that Barbee deserted her in June, 190. She says that he earns $125 a month and she asks the court to grant her a decree of divorce and $) a month ali- mony. Peter W. B. Walker is the defendant in | & suit for divorce brought by Jennie S. | Walker. She charges that without cause or reason her husband abandoned her more than a year ago. —_———— TWO MEN END THEIR OWN LIVES WITH THE ROPE Nels Nelson, Laborer, and Charles F. Stephens, Tailor, Being De- spondent, Hang Themselves.

Call's Exposure of Methods of C. J. Walden Saves the State Money. e The suit of the Board of Prison Direc- tors against Joseph Levy, a Sacramento- street second-hand dealer, which follow- ed the exposure by The Call in October, 1900, of the methods of C. J. Walden, | the convict jute accountant of San Quen- tin, came up for trial yesterday before Judge Sloss and a judgment for plaintiff | for $2825, the value of 50,000 bags, result- ed. The suit was for $3552 50, the value of 65,000 jute bags received by Levy from | Walden, and from which the State re- celved no returns, Walden having pock- eted the proceeds and then disappeared. No trace of him has since been found, though in the weeks closely following upon the exposure a vigorous search for him was made by the local and country police. The testimony taken yesterday was of- fered entirely by the plaintiff, the de- fense endeavoring to show by cross-ex- amination that Levy was not a party to the crime and therefore should not be held accountable. The witnesses for the plaintiff were Warden M. G. Agulrre, Prison Director Fitzgerald and W. J. O'Brien, the present jute accountant. Fitzgerald testified to haying informed the local police of the shortage in Wal- den’s accounts. He said also that after he had Interviewed John Seymour, then captain of detectives, and told him of the shortage he learned that Defendant Levy had been before him and told of his deal- ings with Walden. ‘Warden Aguirre gave practically the same testimony as Fitzgerald, with the exception that he said he only knew of the police having been informed of the shortage through hearsay. Aguirre told of how the shortage was discovered and the subsequent efforts of the directors to apprehend Walden. He also told how the affairs of the prison jute mill were conducted. W. J. O’Brien, ‘Walden's successor, knew but little of the shortage, his connection with the case commencing after Walden had become a fugitive. He explained the system under which the jute accounts were kept and showed by his books how it was possible for his predecessor to take advantage of the method of handling the products of the jute mill then in vogue. His books were offered in evidence and, notwith- stand an objection, were admitted by Judge Sloss. The case was then submitted to the jury with the result stated. —_—— Both Claim the Dog.
