Casey | International Hotel in this city on | has been real good since his original defection from the Mayor’s cause, and now that he is in the minority on the board his reappointment is very much | within the zange of probability. | The term of Park Commissioner Frank J. Sullivan will also expire and gossip suggests the name of Willlam H. Metson as Sullivan’'s successor. Met- son was Park Commissioner just be- | fore the new charter went into effect. | He was the only one on the board who | was not reappointed by Mayor Phelan in 1900. Metson is a Democrat, an at- torney of high standing and his ap- pointment now would be in the nature of a slap at the influences which pre- vented his appcintment in 1900. There does not appear to be any well- defined guess as to the probable succes- | sor to J. Howell, whose term as Police Commissioner ends next month, although it is said that Jeremiah A.! Dineen, a contractor and a close friend of Mayor Schmitz, can have the office ; if he wants it. Others who are men- | H. tioned for the post are: Dr. George L | Drucker, ex-School Director and ex- Grand Juror, and Fred Hilbert, though the Mayor has been heard to remark that he did not desire to ap- point any more liquor men on the com- missions. Hilbert is in that line of business, but he, friend of Schmitz. The term of Civil Service Commis- sioner John W. Rogers also expires January 8. He could undoubtedly be reappointed, but he has his eyes on more remunerative positions, one of which he hopes to secure through the good offices of E. A. Hayes, Congress- man-elect. Rogers wants to succeed the late George Morse as clerk of the United States District Court or he may g0 to Washington, D. C., as Hayes’ secretary. In either event a vacancy on the Civil Service Board will exist for which gossip fails to suggest a name unless it be George Benham, president of the Labor Council, who has several times been considered for appointment on commissions by the Mayor, but for some reason was never | selected when the crucial moment ar- rived. FRANK P. FLINT IN TOWN. | by Delegation of Bankers, ! 1 Frank P. Flint of Los Angeles, can- didate for United States Senator, ar- rived in San Francisco yesterday and met a number of statesmen in the palm court of the Palace Hotel. J. | A. Slauson, Kaspare Cohn, W. C. Pat- Simms of the Tivoli distinguished him- | tributed another number from its bill, | grammes by a bevy of beautiful young | | terson and W. J. Washburn of Los Angeles came here with Mr. Flint and will endeavor to convince members of the Legislature that the south is en- titled to the Senatorial prize and that Flint is the favorite in the southland. J. A. Slauson was formerly pres- ident of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce. He has acquired a wide reputation as a farmer, but his money was made in the banking business. He is a clever talker and a good lis- | tener. Mr. Patterson is president of the Los Angeles Bank, and Mr. Wash- burn is president of the Equitable Savings Bank. Mr. Cohn is an enter- | prising business man. It is well understood in political ' circles that the members of the San! Francisco legislative delegation will be delighted to meet Mr. Flint and | his friends from the south and while away a few hours in the discussion of | Senatorial topics. The San Francisco delefatlon will | meet and organize some time during the last week of this month. It is said that either Nathan C. chairman of the delegation.

CO0D PROFITS [N PARK NEWS The little publication known as the Park News, which contains the pro- gramme and is distributed at the Sun- day concerts in Golden Gate Park, has been netting a profit of $3000 a year to those who held the privilege of printing it. The municipality has been receiving but $100 a month from the concession, and the Commissioners were much sur- prised at the information developed at the inquiry they held last night into charges that bidders were in collusion at the recent award. The evidence ad- duced was sufficient to justify Commis- sioners Spreckels, Lloyd, Dingee and Cummings in rejecting all bids and is- suing a new call. The contract has not been closed with Quirk Brothers, who offered the highest amount for the priv- ilege. 'lghe profits from the advertisements in the publication have heretofore been ! successfully concealed, but full light ' was gained at last night’s meeting. It is expected that printers, now apprised of the opportunities for money making, will compete for the concession, to the * material advantage of the city. | The bids for issuing the concert pro- | gramme and publication were opened | in October. Phillips & Van Orden, who ihave had the contract, offered $100 a | month, .the amount they have been paying the city. O. H. Smyth, who was {a member of that firm until recently, bid $120 a month. Quirk Brothers of- fered $155. Subject to an investigation as to whether or not they were a re- sponsible firm, the privilege was {awarded to Quirk Brothers. They have {been printing the News during No- vember, but the contract has never | been signed by the Commissioners. Smyth made the accusation that Quirk Brothers were In collusion with Phillips & Van Orden, and alleged that the successful bid was prepared by Phillips & Van Orden and tbat the latter firm plans to perform the con- | tract. | i | | Candidate for Senate Is Accompanied TURKISH ANGORA MUFF and TIP- PET like cat, lined with heavy SATIN.

HUSBAND P HIS WIFE DEAD Warned by a strange premonition— something he could not explain— Amandus Repsold, the well-known wine merchant, returned to his home, 632 Cole stree’, yesterday to find his wife dead. She had been affiicted with heart trouble for several years, and it is believed that the disease caused her death. Soon after Mr. Repsold left his home something told him that all was not well. He was about to telephone and assure himself that nothing had hap- pened to his wife, but the warning was 8o strong that he boarded a car with a friend and rode out to the house. He opened the door, thinking to surprise Mrs. Repsold. He found her sleeping, as he thought, on a lounge. He called her name. There was no answer. He spoke to her in a louder tone and caught her by the arm. Then he real- ized that the mysterious premonition he had received was true. His wite was dead. The body of Mrs. Repsold was taken to the morgue. Though there is noth- ing to indicate that she did not die of natural causes, an autopsy will be performed to-day. Friends say she wag despondent at times and may have committed suicide in a moment of suffering. Mrs. Repsold was a native of Germany, aged 33 years. She was a daughter of Mrs. Philip Muller, the well-known singer. ———————— Christmas Leather Goods.
