The body of the young man found in Golden Gate Park last Tuesday with a bullet wound in his head still lies at the Morgue unidentified. Last evening two boys, Willlam McCarray and Thomas Mellick of 668 Clementina street, called at the Morgue and stated that the body resembled that of Earl Hamilton, whose parents live at Twenty-seventh and Sanchez streets. The boys said that Hamilton took dinner with the Mellicks Sunday afternoon and during the meal remarked that he was going to kili | himself because his father had turned against him. The elder Hamilton could not be found last night by the deputies of the Morgue who were. sent out to bring him in for the purpose of viewing and if possible identifying the remains as those of his son. The strange actions of the woman who has been calling at the Morgue daily and decorating the remains with flowers led to an investigation of her identity yesterday and resulted in the discovery that she is Mrs. Bertha Con- ness. The latter declared that she has no knowledge as to the identity of the dead man and had simply been at- tracted to the Morgue through sym- pathy, aroused over the story publish- ed regarding the finding of the body in { the park. Mrs. Conness’' sister, Mrs. C. G. Conna, who lives in East Oakland, stated last night that Mrs. Conness had admitted to her that the dead man was an old acquaintance of hers, a man whom she had known in Arizona. The sister added that she knew that Mrs. Conness had lived with a bar- tender named Frank Wilder in Doug- las, Ariz., for seven years. They were not married, but Wilder continued to send her sister money after the latter had removed to this State. Finally they had a falling out. Mrs. Conness has been living at the Cummings house at 618 Post street, this city, but inquiry there last night revealed the fact that she had left there yesterday. Mrs. Elizabeth Coleman of 1217 Mission street viewed the body in the forenoon, and with loud lamenta- tions proclaimed the dead man to be her brother, Alexander Henry Don- nelly. After she had been calmed by Matron Tierney she admitted that her brother’s hair was not auburn. An- other of her brothers was thereupon summoned to the Coroner’s office by Detective Taylor, and he unhesita~ tingly declared the body to be that of a stranger. He said also that he had seen his brother on the preceding evening alive and well. —_————— G Mrs, Pollok Is at Rest. Mrs. Mary Pollok, widowed mother of Allan Pollok, the former manager of the St. Francis Hotel, died late yes- terday afternoon in her apartments at that hotel. Death was the resujt of advanced age and was hastened by a slight stroke of paralysis, which Mrs. Pollok received ten days ago. Du ing her last hours Mrs. Pollok was at- tended by her son and two daughters, Margaret and Jean Pollok, who had been her constant corapanions during her long and happy life. She was a native of Scotland, 74 vears of age, and leaves many friends in this city and Southern California. The funeral will take place to-morrow at 1 p. m. from the First Presbyterian Church, Van Ness avenue and Sacramento street. The funeral car will leave Eighteenth and Guerrero streets at 2:30 p. m. Interment will take place in Cypress Lawn Ceémetery and will be private. —_——————— Burnett's Vanilla Extract used and highly indorsed by all leading hotels. Testimony in the battery case of Wil- | liam H. Ballinger, wool sorter, of 11 De- | catur stret, versus Hugh Rose, team- | ster, of 9 Decatur street, disclosed the | fact that there were four rattling prelim- inaries to the event in which Mr. Rose | blackened Mr. Ballinger’s right eye and shifted the location of a few of his left ! ribs. The milling occurred last Sunday afternoon contiguous to the respective homes of the contestants and in the following order: 2:15 o’clock—Mrs. Mrs. Rose; draw. 2:30 o'clock—Mr. Ballinger versus Mrs. O'Brien of 8 Decatur street, a “lady friend” of Mrs. Rose; Mrs. O’Brien won. 45 o'clock—Mr. and Mrs. Rose ver- Mrs. O'Briep, who had suddenly transferred her allegiance; Mrs. O’Brien won. | 2:50 o'clock—Mr. Rose O’Brien; Mrs. O'Brien won. 3:10 o’clock—Mr. Rose versus Mr. Bal- linger; Mr. Rose lost. Casualties—Mrs. Rose, one black eye, administered by Mr. Ballinger; Mrs. Ballinger, internal injuries of indeter- minate seriousness, administered by | Mrs. Rose; Mr. Ballinger, one eye put out of commission and ribs dislocated, | by Mr. Rose; Mr. Rose, knuckles of right hand bruised by colliding with cheekbone of Mr. Ballinger. Mrs. O’Brien escaped physical injury. When the parties lined up before Po- lice Judge Mogan yesterday Mr. Bal- | linger's head was bandaged and a pro- | tuberance on the left side of his vest | was alleged to indicate where his ribs | were out of proper position. Mrs. Rose’s | discolored and swollen left eye was | plainly visible through a dark veil. She | averred that Mrs. Ballinger attacked her with a pair of scissors, which she captured in the struggle and submitted in evidence. Mrs. Ballinger retaliated by declaring that Mrs. Rose brandished a razor. Mr. Rose did not attempt to deny that he battered Mr. Ballinger, and silently pointed to Mrs. R.'s dam- aged optic as the provocation for the battery. Mr. Ballinger did not testify. | Mrs. O'Brien was absent. After vainly endeavoring to ascertain the cause of the feud between the Roses and the Ballingers the Judge continued the hearing, and advised the Roses, as they are a more recent acquisition to | Decatur street society than the Bal- | lingers, to remove their home to some other neighborhood. ‘“For,” quoth his Honor, “the convenience of the oldest inhabitant is entitled to prior consid- eration in a contention which evidently can only be settled by the removal of one of the conteslan(s.". R Ballinger versus versus Mrs. Miss Alice Haggerty inadvertently | left her watch upon the parlor mantel- piece of the apartment-house in which | she lives at 742 O'Farrell street, and when she missed the timepiece ‘and | went in quest of it she found Perry Olcutt, 25 years of age, just emerging | from the parlor and the watch con- spicuously absent from where she had placed it. She taxed him with its | theft, and when arrested he confessed that her suspicion was solidly founda- | tioned. With feminine perversity, however, she showed reluctance to have him punished for grand larceny, a penitentiary offense, and through her medlation the complaint was reduced to petty larceny and Judge Cabaniss pronounced a sentence of twenty days. Olcutt says he is a miner and called to visit a friend, when he saw the watch | and could not overcome the temptation to steal it. P e Patrick Bannon, Peter Wall and John Mogan, convicted of stealing $1 50 from W. Leting, a Fifth-street saloon- keeper, were given six months apiece by Judge Fritz. 0 » eI h Judge Mogan dismissed the com- plaint against Elias Ellison, who was ADVERTISEMENTS.

I have suffered for some time from an excess of uric &cid in the blood; and since the middle of last year, from a severe attack of Eczema, chiefly on the scalp, face, ears and neck and on one limb. I was for several months under professional treatments, but the remedies prescribed were of no avall, and I was gradually becoming worse, mi face was dread- fully dis and I lost nearly all my hair. At last, my wife prevailed upon me to try the Cuticara Remedies and I gave them a thorough trial with the most ;fil&fut:o;y “r‘e;ulu. .:‘dhe disease soon an pear halr commenced to grow again. :‘y fresh gro head, and my limb (although not?’nt quite B o mipily e i My 80 ly of your es g‘mhl.k.c ‘esents to oth s ordctr pr er persons suf- fering from similar complaints, and, as President of the Bible Women Bociety, has told the Bible women to report if any case should come under their notice when a poor person s so nfllmd.n}hnymm may be ROBERT ISAAC FINNEMORE, ~ (Judge of the Natal Supreme Court’ Pletermaritzburg, Natal, Oct. 29, 1901. FIVE RATTLING BATTLES REGALE DECATUR STREET All' Occur Within an Hour ‘War of the Ballingers and the Roses arrested for distributing campaign lit- erature at an outdoor political meeting on Ninth street. Patrolman P. C. Blick said that the Salvation Army had been officially restrained from circulat- ing tracts at their open air meetings, but the Judge opined that conviction of the defendant would be equivalent to prevention of free speech, as the cir- culars he distributed were intended to prove some of the arguments uttered by the siellbinders. The circulars in question contained a comparative review of the respective Congressional records of Julius Kahn and E. J. Livernash, and were appar- ently issued with the object of helping the latter candidate’s chances of find- ing favor with the labor voters. b e % Mrs. N. Christianson, en route from Stockton to Portland, was accompanied by a heavy satchel, and after leaving the river boat she engaged Louis Me- rino to carry her impedimenta to the Portland steamer. Louis, whose au- dacity was innumerable degrees ahead of his discretion, attempted to run away with his burden, and the handi- cap was so heavy that to overtake and arrest him required hardly any speed effort on the part of the corpulent po- liceman whom Mrs. Christianson sum- moned to her aid. Six months was the sentence pronounced by Judge Cab- aniss. . s e ‘Wiilia 2 Walsh, an able-bodied men- dicant, was given thirty days by Judge Fritz after the policeman had told of how the defendant made a specialty of accosting women and cursing them if they refused to contribute. And if you ever come before me ain,” sald his Honor to Willlam, 11 give you -!lx x.nonlhs," . ‘William Felloes and John Sells were accompanied by two young women as they walked down Fourth street at 8:30 o'clock Wednesday evening and the young woman with Mr, Felloes scream- ed when John Collins suddenly sprang | from a doorway and, aiming a knife | thrust at her escort, shouted: ‘“How dare you walk with that girl Mr. Felloes threw up his right arm to pro- tect his body and the knife almost | severed the thumb from his hand. Ere\ the thrust could be repeated Mr. Col- | lins was in custody and the charges | against him on Judge Mogan's calendar are assault with a deadly weapon and carrying a concealed weapon. When the case was called the prose- cution obtained a continuance till to- day because of Mr. Felloes’ inability to appear, his wounded hand being un- der treatment at a hospital. The defendant, about fifty years of age and fashionably attired, stated that he is a horseman from San Jose, but would say nothing concerning his attack upon Felloes. When arrested the open knife was found in his poc- ket and when reminded of that fact he merely said: ‘“Never mind; when the proper time comes I'll tell my story.” & O John - Sullivan, Patrick Foley and Frank Ryan were alleged to operate as a street-begging triumvirate. While one of them solicited alms the other two stood in front of the person ac- costed and by their menacing demeanor endeavored to intimidate him into com- plyiny with their comrade’'s request. That’s the game they were engaged in at midnight on Kearny street when two patrolmen unexpectedly turned a cor- ner and caught them in the act. “In these days of business combina- tions it is not surprising to find the system extend to mendicancy,” said Judge Mogan, “but street-begging that is just one remove from footpadry must be suppressed. I will sentence you gentlemen to-morrow and as- sure you now that you will not have opportunity to repeat your emulation of ‘The Three Guardsmen’—‘one for all a.d all for one’ you know—until the winter is far advanced.” . s e Nineteen-year-old Harry Burns saw an advertising banner suspended from the side of a peddler's wagon on Church street and when the peddler's back was turned Harry slyly applied a lighted match to the muslin and glee- fully watched the resultant blaze. The peddler had Harry arrested for dis- turbing the peace, because the de- stroyed banner had advertised a forth- coming picnic of the Peddlers’ Union, and in Judge Cabaniss’ court the spe- clal counsel of that organization ap- peared to push the prosecution of Harry, but rclented and suggested that the lad be dismissed with a reprimand. Reprimand administered and dismissal ordered. —————— JURY QUICKLY SECURED TO \TRY DOLBEER CASE Hearing of Testimony in the Will Contest Will Begin Early Next Weels.
