THOMAS BRENNAN Fritz That the Physician Took $37,000 Belong- ing to Him—Defendant Is Released on Bail | i fF ather Grey, Lying on Sick Bed, Tells Police Judge i Dr. Thomas F. Brennan was before ! Judge Fritz yesterday on a charge of | muleting an aged Catholic priest, Rev. Father P. J. Grey, out of $37,624 13. | Under the stress of illness he claims | to have confided to Brennan most of {his propérty interests, which con- J‘sisled principally of a deposit of more [than $37,000, which the aged priest | had in the Hibernia Bank. In order to obtain the real | Judge Fritz held court in Father { Grey’s room yesterday afternoon and | | heard the story of the priest. Age had | dulled his memory of the tran-| | sactions within the last few years, but | | he was thoroughly clear on the char- ity he said he had extended to Bren- | nan during the years of the physician's | early struggles. For such efforts, he said, he expected better returns in gratitude. Brennan, he sald, had | conducted the priest's private business in many ways. When the priest was | | asked to sign a paper by Brennan he | did so, he claims, without distrust and | | sometimes without knowing its con- tents. Last September he learned that four checks, which he claims he signed without knowledge of their purport, were presented to the Hiber- | nia Bank, withdrawing all the funds | he had there. The bank officials have been { penaed and will be witnesses in case. Brennan is out on ball of $5000, which was fixed by Judge Cabaniss after Judge Fritz had placed his se- curity at $50,000 cash, or $100,000 bonds. facts sub- the . . Niccolo Postine, who was ordered ! into custody for perjury by Judge Conlan because he told such evident untruths in the preliminary hearlngj of Giovanni Rossi and Francisco Fos- | sa, charged with the murder of Vin- censo Lavaginino, was released by Judge Mogan yesterday. Judge Con- | lan refused to affix his signature to a complaint against the accused man ‘and the District Attorney took no in- terest in the matter, so that prosecu- tion was hopeless. Under such treat- ment perjury in police courts will be- come a popular pastime. a Teniw John Lundgrin, the original man from Missouri, who tempted the ‘“‘top and bottom game” and was ordered into custody by Judge Fritz for fear | that he would be dispersed in squads at'the temptations offered by his rob- bers, was given his liberty yesterday. He told the Judge, under a strict cross-fire of questions, that one of the: | alleged bunko men, ““Con” Sullivan by name, whose record runs through | many a stone-flagged trail, with clink- ng steel to maintain it, made over-| tures to reimburse him if he would dip into countries previously unknown to him. Lundgrin claims that he refused all overtures of settlement, and intended | to prosecute the case thoroughly. On this stitement and a further one that he was in the way of securing a job | in a wholesale house he was allowed | his liberty. Sullivan, who is at large on $1000 bonds, was not in court to listen to the proceedings. | P 1 John Hanson was convicted of dis- | turbing the peace by Judge Mogan yes- | terday. He was accused of throwing { two bottles of Barbary Coast booze 1at J. H. Price, a streetcar conductor who guides the destinies of a car that | plows its muddy way to the Pacific Mail dock. The charge should have | been assault with a deadly weapon, but | the Prosecuting Attorney overlooked the chemical part of the missiles. &35 W s Theodoré Wolters, known among criminals as the “Identification Kid” and as a strong right arm for Sergeant Tim Bainbridge, who has charge of the excelient Bertillion bureau for the | tdentification of criminals maintained | by the Police Department of San | Francisco, was in trouble yesterday. | Sergeant Brainbridge rushed down from Judge Cabaniss’ court and in- formed Wolters that a brother of the latter had been given sixty days for being drunk in a public place. Theodore buried his face in his hands and sobbed. “I had a brother once— | a gracious boy!” he exclaimed, >“but |I don’t know what became of the | guy,” He hurried to the prison, and, peer- "lng through the iron bars, found in the confined man a likeness that startled him. A moment's conversa- tion convinced him that the prisoner was not kin to him in any way. He wandered back to the identification bu- reau with his faith sadly shattered in regard to facial resemblances. @ James Balley, the cocalne flend who made a failure of a ‘“get-away” by plumping into the sinewed arms of Deputy Coroner Jim Murphy, was given three months in the County Jafl yesterday by Judge Mogan. Balley broke away from a policeman who had him under arrest and did a dipping and | veering act around the Morgue build- | ing that would have compelled a sea- gull to become a chicken for shame of lack of speed and agility. He was caught on the fly by Murphy, and in the struggle to curb Bailey’s flight the Deputy Coroner received. a badly smoked lamp. ———— BOY ARRESTED FOR ROBBING EMPLOYERS Charles Kletz Accused of Having Stolen Boxes of Spool Silk for Four Months. Charles Kletz, a boy 17 years of age, was arrested yesterday afternoon by Detectives O'Dea and Mulcahy and locked up in “the tanks” at the City Prison. A charge of grand larceny will be preferred against him as soon as the officers have concluded their investigation. The boy, whose parents live at 270 Clara street, entered the employment of the Carlson-Currier Company, silk ; manufacturers, 8 Sutter street, about | four months ago. Soon afterward the firm became aware of the fact that boxes of spool silk were being stolen, but the thief could not be discovered. Suspicion fell upon Kletz and he was discharged last week. The police were notified and O'Dea and Mulcahy found that a number of the stolen boxes had been sold to a second-hand dealer on Folsom street. From the description of the boy who sold the goods the detectives arrested Kletz and he was identified by the dealer. He admitted stealing the boxes sold to the dealer, but no more. The firm says that about 200 boxes have been stolen, of the value of $1400. The officers have recovered about $500 worth so far. The boy says he was alone in the thievery. ——————— SWINDLER EWING GOES TO SAN QUENTIN PRISON Judge de Haven Sentences Him to Fifteen Months’ Confinement and to Pay a Fine. William B. Ewing was sentenced by United States District Judge de Ha- ven yesterday to be imprisoned for fifteen months in the penitentjary at San Quentin and to pay a fine of $500. He had been convicted of us- ing the mails in the interest of the Standard Oil Promotion and Invest- ment Company, thereby defrauding many poor women of their hard earned. savings. In more than one case it was shown that he took the widow’s mite. Ewing's wife and young daughter were present in court when sentence was pronounced and they and the prisoner were very much affected. The women whom he had impover- ished had returned to their homes in | Sacramento and Los Angeles. The prisoner had hoped that the County Jail of San Francisco or Ala- meda would be selected as the place for his imprisonment, but his offense was too flagrant for judicial mercy. —_————————— HISTORICAL FURNITURE SALE The Great Retiring Sale at Pattosien Company’s now in progress will go down in history as one of the greatest sales heard of in America. Think of 1t! Yes- terday all day the store had to be closed s0 as to give the delivery department a chance to ship goods which were bought during the week; to give the furniture department a chance to replenish stock from the warehouse. In fact, the furni- ture, carpet and drapery departments were all behind in sending out the goods sold, in spite of the salespeople staying every evening until 11 o'clock, and in spite of having a double force of sales- men and a double force in the delivery department. This last sale of Pattosien Company will be long remembered for the low | prices given. It is needless at this sale to mention prices being the low prices, being prices marked on stock they speak for them- selves. Next Monday the store will again open at 9:30 a. m., when proper attention will be given to the many buyers. . ‘Watch our windows daily for bargains. PATTOSIEN COMPANY, Sixteenth and Mission streets, * ey Says Moody Was Viclous. The Chutes Company is the defend- ant in a suit for $10,000 damages brought yesterday by Howard B. Lom- bard," The plaintiff says he is entitled to monetary balm for injuries inflicted upon him by John Moody, an employe, of the defendant, last November. His complaint contalns the allegation “that while peacefully, quietly and lawfully viewing the monkeys at the Chutes he was unlawfully, wrongfully, willfully, maliciously, viciously and forcibly struck upon the head by John Moody. new e Lawyers Overcrowd Courtroem. The Supreme Court spent all day yesterday listening to arguments the Adams-Hopkins suit over the So- brante tract in Alameda County. In view of the number of lawyers who are taking part in the contest it would appear that the successful litigants ex- pect to be satisfied with the honor of victory. Fach of the numerous inter- ested parties has some claim, to which none of the others will agree. The case was finally ordered submitted on briefs, e S EE— Murderers Not Sentenced. ‘Whken Mrs. Martha E. Bowers, con- victed of murdering her husband, Martin L. Bowers, by administering poison to him, appeared in Judge Cook’s court yesterday for sentence, Attorney Frank G. Drury asked for a week’s continuance, which was grant- ed.

' He accuses Von Arx of stealing a suit of clothes valued at $50, which he gave him to be dyed, Von Arx representing himself as agent for dye works. —_————— Two Boy Thugs Sentenced.
