Classen's dead body was vesterday afternoon lying in a ood in Francis M. Smith & work: at the corner of t n end streets. There were two bullet wounds in the head, sile had entered and ere it had passed out was found a Colt's .38 One of the chambers rged. In the pockets dead man were found the c book of the German Sa: iety, but the book 1g; coin amounting to membership in the Boiler- n and the Order of Her- thirt cartridges to and some correspondence r & Co. with reference to ction by them from a man Dannebaum of certain monthly payments due m _Dannebaum to Classen, averaging $ per month. A 1 note from Curtin stated that Dannebaum was unable to make his regular payment, but would make a double payment on the month follow- 1n, l‘)epu(y Coroner Michael Brown and Special Deputy David Ahern made an investigation of the case and reported that Classen had killed himself. The police detective detailed on the matter made a similar report. From Otto Dauscher, the foreman, it was learned that Classen left the works for Junch at 11:45 . m. and re- turned at 1:30 p. m. in his street clothes, his working clothes having been left in his room at 452 Natoma street. Al- though it was evident that Classen had not returned with the intention of re- suming work, the foreman said noth- ing to him nor he to the foreman. A quarter or a half hour later Classen's dead body was found. Owing to the constant noise of hammering in the place, the report of the pistol was not heard. R. P. Evans, who worked alongside of Clzssen in the forenoon, said that Classen appeared to be somewhat ner- vous and cut his finger, but he did not observe anything eise unusual about bullet entered rather high on the al inches above the right de its exit on the left side, of the bullet holes being There s a hole in his hat, were bullet in the partition. worked for W. w have talked of suicide tphalen of 848 e house Clas- with a broken n learned ated for the went on a spree heavy drink- 1z les with due to alcohol- cause for sui- YOU CAN LOOK The wide world over and not be able to compare with the aundering of fine wdering an art by that we put upon 3 collars and cuffs, and we are as careful of them as if they were done up UNITED STATES LAUNDRY, 1004 MARKET STREET.

Sims in the Chair Without Even the Pleasure of a Fight 2 | | | | | | | | | i | | | | THOY w | HICKEY'S AN | VER3ION OF | THE ANvIL CHORUS e ODONNELL OMMINATED MR HEGGERTY W To FiLL TvE heg Gavin McNab organized the Demo- cratic local convention at the Alham- bra Theater last evening. Former Sen- ator J. C. Sims, the candidate of the or- ganization, received 903; votes for chairman and was subsequently elected by acclamation. His opponent, Charles Heggerty, as the representative of | > Horse and Cart faction, obtained 76% votes. Mr. Heggerty would have | made a record of an even votes if | Livingston Jenks had thrown his one- | fourth of a whole vote to the hard-I‘ | pressed column of the defeated but dauntless James H. O'Brien, but Dele- gate Jenks at the critical moment de- clined to lend his support to either fac- tion of the party There was no fighting to excite the muititude of spectators. There was no uproar or tumult to inspire the Demo- cratic legions with hopes of victory. The entire proceeding was monoton- ously peaceful. A detachment of police strong enough to quell a riot was at the | disposal of Thomas W. Hickey, chair-| man of the Democratic City and Coun- Committee, but the arm of the law °d to preserve order. Men ed many miles to see an | ld-time Democratic rough-house, went home disappointed and dejected. The | opposition to McNab had just a look in, and is out of business again. The carts | are parked and the horses have gone to sture. At a signal from Gavin McNab the delegates will assemble again, and whoever may be slated by McNab for nomination will be a nomi- nee of the convention. Gavin McNab was present last night and remarked at | the finish that the Horses and Carts did not leave a loophole to save them- selves. | WIELDS CLAW HAMMER. ! Chairman Hickey rapped for order lt‘ [ 8:15 o’clock—and such a rap. His gavel was an overweight claw hammer, and | the face of the table held a large and; ragged piece of some abandoned steam | boiler. The effect of the first blow was | ghastly. The clang split the ears of the | expectant Bourbons and cleaned the! fight out of their systems as if they had | been shot. Chairman Hickey's order | that all take their seats as assigned | was meekly obeyed, all seeming to be| anxious to avoid further bombardment | m the claw hammer and gong. “Call the rc * said Chairman Hickey, addressing the secretary. A moment | of szuspense followed this order, as it had been announced that on this point | the oppdsing forces would open the bat- | tle. But the Horses and Carts.sat si- lent and the sec v proceeded. | “There are 157 delegates prrsent."i said Chalrman Hickey when the call was concluded. *“This number consti- | tutes a quorum, and we will take up | the first question before this conven- | tion—the election of a temporary chair- | man.” | Still there was no protest from the| Horses and Carts, otherwise the Demo- | cratic League, and William A. Kelly of | the Thirty-fifth Assembly District | mounted the platform to place ex-Sen- ator James C. Sims of the Forty-fourth, | the McNab candidate for chairman, in nomination. GREETED WITH CHEERS. | Kelly was greeted with cheers, which ! a rap from the anvil quieted. Kelly then said: { As announced, we are about chairman for this convention. We are about to confer a high trust and place in the hands of one man the office of leader of this con- vention. This honor, 1 believe, we should | place in the hands of one who possesses in | the highest degree a sense of equity and jus- tice ard who is girt round with service to the party. The man whose name I am about | 1o place before you is sufficiently well known | and_distinguished to eliminate all question as to his fitness for the officc. He possesses a clear head, a high sense of equity and a strong will. He will treat all with fairness if he is | called to rule. The name he possesses is a sufficlent guar- antee for all that I have id. Under his guidance this convention will' round out fts | work in & manner that will be above reproach | and that will win the fullest indorsement of the people of our city. For chairman of this convention I place in nomination the Hon. | James C, Sims of the Forty-fourth Assembly | District. The howls of delight that greeted the announcement of Senator Sims’' name had no sooner quieted than J. E. O'Donnell of the Thirty-seventh mount- ed the platform to place in nomination Charles J. Heggerty of the Forty-first, the hope of the Democratic League. In the midst of cheers O'Donnell opened his oration. He said: One who has read the papers would con- clude that we had all been Incinerated, but, es !hlr’t has name I am I heed not occupy long in telling you of his merits, as you all know them as well as 1. It is to present the name of this man—one of my bovhood friends—that 1 come before you.

GONG BELTED THRICE. | Cheers greeted the mention of Heg- | gerty's name and it took three full belts at the gong to shock the assembly | into silencs ' Willlam Humphrey of the Thirty- eighth District rose to second the num-’ ination of Mr. Hegzgerty. Shouts from the gallery of “platform” had their effect and Mr. Humphrey ascended to the chairman’s table, where he| it i + | delivered a seconding speech warmly | eulogistic of Mr. Heggerty. Seconds then followed in rapid succession. The | Twenty-eighth Assembly District again | seconded He ty's nomination; the Twenty-ninth the Thirtieth, | Sims’; the Sims’; the Thir- | ty-second, the Thirty-third, | Sims’; the fourth, Sims’; the| Thirty. Sims’; the Thirty-sixth, | Heggerty's: the Thirty-seventh, Heg- gerty's; the Thirty-eighth, Heggerty's; the Fortieth, Sims'; the Forty-first, Heggerty's; the Forty-second, Heggerty's; the Forty- third, Heggerty's; the Forty-fourth, Sims’, and the Forty-fifth, Heggerty's. Nominations were then closed upon | motion and the call for a vote was | made. Chairman Hickey, after an-| nouncing that it would take 85 votes | to elect either nominee, appointed | Messrs. Duncan, Welch, Mullen and Dillon to act as tellers. Mr. Mullen gave way to Horace Ford of the Thir- ty-sixth. As the secretary was about to pro- | ceed with the calling of the roll, one McCarthy rose from his seat among the delegates of the Thirty-fifth and protested that his name had not been called at the opening of the conven- tion and demanded that he be seated. Chairman Hick informed him that| the roll from which the call had been snade was the temporary roll which had been certified to the County Com- | mittee by the Registrar, and though the Registrar had certified another roll to the committee at 5 o'clock. PROMISES TO BE FAIR. “I promise to be fair to all of you,” said Chairman Hickey, “and all . I} ask is that you be fair to me, . Under the law the first roli that is submitted to the commitee by the Registrar is| the legal roll and this exhausts his au- | thority. If the Registrar was allowed | rolls at will there | d to the difficulty he vention, but the law would be could cause a c is plain and pos (X At, this Mr. .O'Donnell, who. had | placed Heggerty in nomination, rose and said: “If the Registrar, by mis- had certified ‘a number of Re- accept that ‘roll?"¢ “The acceptance’ of such a.roll I| would not find violently opposed to my ! duty,” answered Chairman Hickey. It is my ruling that the roll from which | the call was made to-night is the legal | roll, and I cannot hear the protest at | this time.” 1 i “Then I appeal from the ruling of the chair,” said O'Donnell. : S “I move that the appeal be laid on the table,” shouted.a delegate in the rear of the hall, and this move was sec- onded. ‘A vote was called for, but O'Donnell avoided defeat for the Horses and Carts by withdrawing his"appeal. This ended what threatened to develop into an interesting row. The chair then | ordered that the count proceed. The Twenty-eighth came in solid with nine votes for Heggerty. In the twen- ty-ninth there was a split, the vote standing nine for Sims and three for Heggerty, Frank Shannon, James Creighton and Robert Gough bolting the McNab ticket in favor of the league. In the Thirtieth there was an- other break from McNab's forces, Fred P. Bender skipping the traces, making the vote of that district twelve for Sims and one for Heggerty. The thirty-first cast twelve votes for Sims, the Thirty- second eleven votes for Sims and the Thirty-third eight for Sims. In the Thirty-fourth there came another break to the Horses and Carts. William Reedy, who cast one vote, and William flt.hvnn_-hut'm: | forces made it plain that | that of my = €.

The Thirty-fifth cast its solid vote of nine delegates for Sims, but when the Thirty-sixth was reached matters be- gan to brighten for the Horses and Carts. This district cast ten solid for Heggerty, the Thirt eventh followed with ten more for Heggerty and the Thirty-eighth plumped ten more for Heggerty, and this started some cheer- |ing. A bang from the gong let the Thirty-ninth in with its votes, and here came an interesting split. Six of the delegates voted for Sims, but Thomas Judge, James P. Quigley and D. ‘Cur- ran, who were accredited with one- fourth of a vote h, hurled their strength into the Heggerty column. Livingston Jenks, who climbed astride the fence when he saw how things were going, modestly refrained from upset- ting any calculations and pefused to cast the one-fourth vote that rested in his hands. It is said that this uncast one-fourth vote was the only asset the Horses and Carts had left when the convention adjourned. The Fortieth District came in with six votes solid for Sims, the Forty-first gave seven for Heggerty and the For- ty-second added ten more to the Heg- gerty column. The forty-third added eight votes to Heggerty's now defeated forces, but the Forty-fourth came in strong with nine votes for Sims. The Forty-fifth cast its eight votes for Heg- gerty, but no cheers greeted its action. McNAB FORCES SHOUT. For a minute several men that had been keeping tally figured in silen: and then the shout from the McNab the Horses and Carts had vassed from their im- agined power and that McNab had won. In a moment the vote was an- nounced by the chair—901; for Sims and 76% for Heggerty. O'Donnell imme- diately rose and moved that the vote be made unanimous. His motion carried with a whoop. Messrs. O'Donnell, Kelly gerty were then appointed to escort Senator Sims to the chair. As they feached the platform three cheers pro- posed for Sims were given with a will, and three just as lusty followed for Heggerty. Introducing Mr. Sims to the convention and expressing his pleasure at being enabled to surrender the gavel, or rather the claw hammer, Mr. Hickey withdrew into the lines of his delegation—that of the Thirtieth. After shaking hands with those that escorted him to the chair, Senator Sims turned to the gathering and said: It is a matter of regret to me that in any way my name should come into collision with accomplished friend Charles J. Heggerty, but I, must acquiesce in the will of the mafority. which is in iteelf a_ good Democratie’ polic: deem it a great honor that I should have been elected to preside and Heg- over this conyention, but let me assure you | that so long as Democratic principles exist in my heart—and that will be to the end—my only thought will be to serve you with im- partiality and fairness and in a manner that will meet with the approbation of all, The Supreme Court has fust declared valld & bond issue of 517,000,000 which sgoes to show the good judgment of the Democratic Board of Supervisors that framed the meas- and we are facing a campaign In which wo 'will have zreat opportunity to add to our prestige as a party. It lies with us to fm- prove the streets and under the policy of ex- pansion we advocate every school child shall be given a roof over its head and a desk at which to sit and study. NO STAIN FOR ERMINE. This convention must nominate judiclal and legislative tickets. Upon looking into the faces of the men that constitute this conven- tion 1 see assurance that the men who will be nominated for judicial positions are men whose purity and honesty cannot be ques- tioned, and no matter how many millions are involved in: ltigetion before them they will Icave no stain upon the ermine. Our constitu- ents, T can assert, need not fear that the men that' will be selecfed for leglslative offices will do other than reflect credit and honor upon them and the State and it rests with us to see that their trust Is not betrayed. Thanking you again for the generous honor you have bestowed upon me, and assuring the gentleman whose motion made my election uranimous of my fullest avpreciation deepest gratitude, I repeat that fairness is the keynote of the policy I will pursue during the deliberations of this convention. At the conclusion of Senator Sims’ address W. H. McCarthy of the Thirty- fifth was elected secretary of the con- vention. Mr. McCarthy made a brief address, thanking the convention for its action, and assumed the duties of his office. Upon motion the chair was em- powered to appoint a committee of five to settle all comtests for seats, to ap- point a committee of five on platform and resolutions and to name a com- mittee of eighteen on permanent or- ganization and order of business. A motion to adjourn was then made, but before it could be put Central Commit- tee Chairman Hickey moved that the temporary officers be made permanent, The motion carried with but little op- position from the Horses and Carts, their ‘“‘noes” being weak and scattered. The chair then announced that the only contests that of record were one filed by Henry Eickhoff of the and | i 190 (0-ED CLIVBS 10 SKYLIGHT I Desire to See Pharmacy, Board’s Questions Leads Her to Perilous Viewpoint MISS FISCHER'S STORY. Testifies That She Was Not Given Fair Time in Which‘ to Complete Her Papers, A casual reference now and then to| a gay dinner or a theater party and a| word picture of a fair student risking her neck®on the skylight of the Col- | lege of Physicians to get a peep down | | into the pit of the amphitheater where examinations were going on lent spice yesterday to the proceed-| ings before the commission appointed by Governor Pardee to investigate al- leged irregularities in the affairs of the State Board of Pharmacy. The commission has established the fact that, notwithstanding the rivalry that exists between the college of pharmacy of the College of Physicians and Surgeons and that of the Univer- sity of California, the State Board of Pharmacy has been paying the Col- , lege of Physicians and Surgeons “nom- inal” rent for the use of its am- phitheater in which to hold examina- | tions; that Professor Flint, pharma- | cist of the College of Physicians and | Surgeons and instructor in pharmacy, was permitted to be present during the progress of the examinations held last January and move about among the candidates for certificates as-licen- tiates, when those of his own college were pitted against those of others; that Miss Cloraine Fitzgerald, a stu- dent at the College of Physicians and Surgeons, who was to come before the board for examination in April, was permitted to be present at the January examination, and that candidates for licenses were not given sufficient time in various instances in which to com- plete their papers. | | SUPPLEMENTARY CHARGES. | Miss Ruby Devoto Fischer, the prin- | cipal witness against the board, Wwas | again called to the stand by the com- | mission yesterday morning. Miss Fischer reiterated her charge that Pro- fessor Flint had aided candidates of | the College of Physiclans and Sur- | | geons, and quoted Miss Grace Eddy | as authority for the statement that Professor Flint had signaled with two fingers to ome Mr. Harvey when a ! question was propounded as to how many fluids were in a certain drug, the answer to the question being two. Continuing Miss Fischer said that ir she remembered correctly, a Miss Nel- son also saw Profe: Flint H v, and that she (the witness) had heard that Professor Flint had bet one of the members of the board $5 that Harvey would stand highest on the roll after the rating had been com- pleted. Miss Fischer said that while all this was going on the members of the board, other than Dr. J. J. Crow- ley, were present. Dr. Crowley was not in the city. As to the time allowed them Miss Fischer said that before she had fin- ished her paper on “Identification of Drugs” she was told that her time was up, and that she must quit. Charles Rowley, president of the board, told her to quit. She had heard that others had been treated in the same manner, Grace Eddy especially making com- plaint. The witness had also heard that cer- tain of the favored candidates had been given the questions in advance, one regarding the difference between fusions and decoctions being especially recollected by her. Miss Desponds had told her this. Regarding an allegea interview, in which Miss Fischer had been quoted as making, among other statements, one to the effect that she had heard that certain members of the board were entertaining at dinners and theater parties various pretty girls of the college, the witness made a de- | tailed explanation. She denied por- | tions of the interview and admitted others, reiterating the statement that rumors of gay times often floated through the college. | Here Mr. Rowley made an explana- tion of the manner in which the exam- inations were conducted, the class of April being so large that it was neces- E to divide it, a portion going up- s and others remaining downstairs. In answer to the question as to wheth- er those that had taKen the examina- tion were permitted or could in any way communicate with those that were | waiting to take the same, Mr. Rowley | said that provisions were such that no opportunity was given the candidates to communicate with one another in any way. It developed, however, that Miss Fischer herself was discovered on | the skylight of the building taking ob- servations of the proceedings below. What advantage this daring co-ed gained no one was able to answer, but it was suggested.that she might have dropped messages to friends seated in the amphitheater. Regarding Miss Fitzgerald's presence during the January examination;, Mr. Calvert had a few things to say. He ! said she sat far back chatting with some young men, and that she made no effort to ald any of the candidates. He ! knew this because he watched her very closely. He made no explanation as to ! why “he did not request her to depart) ! in view of his admission that he found it | | necessary “to watch her very closely."l | AFTERNOON SESSION. i The afternoon session opened with | Miss Fischer again in the witness chair, | her cross-examination by members of | { the board continuing. | Professor Rowley began a rambling cross-examination of the young wom- | an, which brought out little of import- |ance. When Miss Fischer reiterated that she learned by peering through the transom that the applicants in the lower room received more time for the examination, Rowléy asked her if she judged tjme by eyesight. She was asked If she heard of the remark of Brandon A. Weever to do up the board L 2 5 Thirty-ninth and one regarding the/ delegation of the Forty-third District, in which the aggrieved*: persons are Fred Franzen, Larry Hartnett, Louis Mehrtens, Willlam J. Hogan, Joseph P. Hayes, John J. Driscoll, David P. Torres and George J. Heggerty. Here a motion to adjourn found many seconds and-the first day of the convention was at an end. McNab was left in control of the works, and when the convention is again called he will' name the judicial ticket and a large portion of the legislative end, the Horses and Carts seemingly being too despondent to ask for even those things a less dejected minority often lays claim to. —e————— Card and Loose Leaf Systems. $2 buys a Card Index Drawer, 500 rec- ord cards, alphabetical index , and 25 uide cards.
