While Removing Kinks From Nether Limbs He Disturbs the Peace. BY JAMES C. CRAWFORD. Joseph Siminello, youthful, tall and elim, disturbed the peace of a North End vaudeville theater by placing his feet upon the orchestra rail and “josh- | ing” the stage performers. His lower extremities interfered with the arm ac- tion of the pianist to the extent of preventing free elbow-play, thus im- pairing the accompaniment. Wrong notes were sounded by the instrumen- talist while Miss Gladys Montrevor was warbling, “When Your Mother Took My Name, Long. Long Ago,” and | .- . the effect of the popular music num- ber was thus transformed from the sympathy-arousing to the smile-pro- voking. Expostulations from the thumper of the ivories were received with ribald jeers from Master Siminel- lo, and eventually Special Policeman Thompso: aided by Regular Patrol- man T. avanagh, removed the cre- ator of discord and booked him for peace disturbance. Master Siminello was palpably ig- norant of the seriousness of his vposi- tion as he stood before Police Judge Mogan and jauntily pleaded not guilty. In the first place, he alleged, the ex- tent of his footwork had been exag- gerated by the prosecution. It was not with intent to damage the instrumen- tation that he elevated his brogans, but merely to stretch the kinks out of his legs, which, as the court might see for itself, were of extraordinary length. He had sat in cramped atti- tude until both of his nether limbs were in the condition colloquially | termed “asleep,” and before he rested them upon the rail they felt as |If myriad needles were shooting through them. If the pianist had been a mas- ter of his art or less spectacular in his playing there would have been ample elbow-room for him. As for “joshing” the stage artists, that accusation, too, was recklessly enlarged by its authors. The defendant’s behavior during Miss Montrevor's “turn’” was more than orderiy—at least, would have been so if his feet had been avoided by the piano-fighter. If he neglected to ap- plaud the lady's effort his remissness was entirely owing to the annoyance conveyed to him by the rude joggling of his feet. That he did not deliker- ately try to “queer the show” was demonstrated by the enthusiastic man- ner in which he bestowed plaudits upon the Dutch comedian who sung ““Meet Me in St. Louiey, Louiey.” More- over, the only persons who seemed to regard his presence as objectionable were the piano-biffer and the special cop. The case wae taken under advise- ment for one week, Master Siminello being allowed to go at large on his own recognizance. . A glimpse of stageland was also ob- tained by Judge Cabaniss, before whom Cecll V. Hickling, manager of cheap vaudeville houses, and Mrs. Louisa Bates, theatrical booking agent at 36 | Geary street, were principal perform- ers in a drama of charge and counter- charge. Mr. Hickling stood accused of having stolen a gold watch, chain and locket from a Kearny-street busi- ness man, and Mrs. Bates was alleged to have embezzled $450 from Mr. Hick- iing. The first act (time, August 80, 1904) found Mr. Hickling serving as night clerk in the Inverness, a Mason- street lodging-house, and the Kearny- street business man and Miss May Green quarreling in an apartment of Mr. Hickling enters as a peace preserver, and business man leaving behind his watch and appurtenances, valued at $300. Bus ness man returns and finds Mr. Hick- ling and Miss Green engaged in alte: cation, and when business man de- mands restoration of his property he is informed by Mr. Hickling that Miss Green must have taken it, while Miss Green avers that Mr. Hickling could produce it if he so desired. Arrest of | Miss Green and Mr. Hickling, but they are released soon after their names have been entered on “small book” at police station. Act second finds Mr. Hickling man- aging a variety theater at Fresno, the stellar attraction at which is Mrs. Falley, married daughter of Mrs. Bates. In a burst of confidence Mr. Hickling tells Mrs. Falley that he it was who got business man's watch and trinkets and that he kept them In a safe deposit vault until the police quest subsided, when he took them cut and had his Initials substituted for | those of the business man on the locket. Husband of Mrs. Falley ar- rives at Fresno and accuses Mr. Hick- | ling of having alienated his wife's af- fections, and Mr. and Mrs. F. return to San Francisco. Mr. Hickling then has trouble with Mrs. Bates, charging her with having embezzled funds which he put into her booking enter- prise, while she declares that all the money she received from him was her due for furnishing him with perform- ers for his theaters. Then the orig- inal owner of the watch is told by Mrs. Falley all that Mr. Hickling told her concerning it. Mr. Hickling is | then in Portland, and when he returns the “tiff” with Mrs. Bates is renewed. | cause | year-old Torel Thorsen of 41 Eleventh who swears that he betrayed | Kearny-street business man then has warrant issued for Mr. Hickling's ar- rest on grand larceny charge, and De- tectives Conlon and McGowan find Mr. Hickling and discover missing watch on his pergon, he having pawn- ed the chain and locket in Portland.’ Act three finds Mr. Hickling, in re- taliative mood, charging Mrs.. Bates felony embezzlement of $450, which he swears he invested in her business enterprise and which she al- leges he pald her as booking fees. Both cases are scheduled for hearing next Tuesday. Edward Burling, the opium slave who played “bogie man" and terrorized wo- men and children at Oak and Broderick streets, turns out to be a Harvard graduate who practiced civil engineer- ing until the poppy juice wrecked his life. Judge Mogan sent him to under- | 80 examination by the Insanity Com- missioners. . . . Frank Macfee fs held in $50 bail to appear in the Superior Court and show why he should not marry 18- street, | her by promising to make her his wife. The defense before Judge Mogan was | an effort to prove the girl of unchaste | | character prior to the date of her al- ! leged betrayal. . - . Martin C. McDonnell, accused for the :second time of having sold pools as well as dry goods in his store at 3242 Misslon street, proved that the evidence | against him was no stronger than that which failed to convict him the first time, said evidence consisting of cer- taln horseracing literature found upon a shelf by the raiding -~olicemen. Judge Mogan agreed with Mr. McDonnell and dismissed the case. Elmore Mocore, a minor, was pro- nounced incorrigible by his father, who resides at 629 Broderick street, and jJudge Mogan informed the youth that if he does not go to sea within a week he will be sent to a reformatory. * s e “What do you know,” the intelligent attorney inquired, “‘of this man’'s repu- tation for truth, honesty and vari- ety?” 2 The equally intelligent witness re- plied that in all three essentials to guodness of character the man’s fame was most enviable. . Alfred Price and Moses Ulmer were active figures on Pine and California streef® and in connecting alleys during the days when mining stock specula- tion was rampant in San Francisco. The subsidence of the great popular craze left them among the stranded and ever since then they have con- tinued to linger in the vicinity ‘change, living precariously and hop- ing for the renaissance that seems to become more remote every day. They are chockful of reminiscence and pos- sess a certain value as raconteurs, rivalry in that respect probably being o+ the reason for their mutual antipathy. Their joint debut in the Police Court occurred about a year ago, when Vet- | eran Ulmer was accused of having battered Patriarch Price's head with a walking stick. The assault was pro- nounced justifiable by the magistrate, had not very long to remain on this sphere, anywa found favor with neither of them. With augmented hatred of each other they returned to their wonted haunt ! and last Thursday afternoon the in- evitable renewal of violent hostility took place. While Mr. Ulmer was im- mersed in whist with some kindred spirits Mr. Price battered him from behind. In the court of Judge Mogan sev- eral witnesses swore that Mr. Price was of more quarrelsome nature than Mr. Ulmer, the latter apparently be- ing content to confine his antagonism to covert “knocking” of his foe, whose enmity was openly demonstra- tive. His Honor took the case under advisement till next Friday and again advised the living relics of a day for- ever dead to get together in their anec- dotage and thus avert useless compe- tition. « e Judge Cabaniss dismissed the charge of mayhem against Eugene Landsburg after he became convinced that the gnawing of one of Charles Randall's ' thumbs by Mr. Landsburg was pro- voked by a finger of the same hand being utilized as a gouge to destroy one of his eyes. Mr. Randall waxed very indignant when the decision was announced and the Judge told him that he might appeal to the Grand Jury, which Mr. Randall said he would do. The woman at the bottom of the brutal encounter was Miss Nellie James, in whose apartment on Kearny street - it occurred. Mr. Landsburg ‘was visiting her when Mr. Randall ar- rived, and, in jealous rage, started to beat her. While protecting her Mr. Landsburg discovered that Mr. Ran- dall was industriously endeavoring to squeeze out one of his eyes and in seif-defense he clutched the thumb between his teeth and chewed it so vigorously as to render the amputation of a portion of it subsequently neces- sary.

The body is in a good | state of preservation, considering that | the interment took place more than| The circumstances leading to the final discovery of the body are particularly Interesting. General Porter has con- ducted the search for the last five years, and when Congress recently took no action upon the President’s recom- mendation for the expenses incident to the search, the Embassador continued the extensive labors at his own ex- pense. A large force of workmen has been engaged night and day tunneling and | cross-tunneling the old St. Louis Cem- | etery. This constituted a huge opera- | tion, embracing nearly a block covered ! with buildings and requiring a system | of subterranean mining. IDENTIFICATION COMPLETE. | Hundreds of wooden caskets were found, but not until Wednesday was unearthed four leaden caskets which gave promise of containing the body of the admiral. Three of them bore plates designating the names of the deceased. The fourth showed superior solidity of workmanship. No plate was found on this casket, and it is sup- posed it was removed when another coffin was superimposed on it. The leaden coffin was opened in the pres- ence of General Porter, Colonel Bailey Blanchard, second secretary of the American Embassy, and Engineer ‘Weis, who has been directing the ex- cavation. The body was wrapped in a sheet with a packing of straw and hay. Those present were immediately struck by the resemblance of the head | to that on the medallions and bust of | the admiral. As was anticipated, no uniform, deco- ration or sword were found, as all such articles had been accounted for after the burial. The coffin was taken to the medical school, where Drs. Captain and Papilau, the distinguished professors of the charged with making a thorough ex- amination for the purpose of identifi- catlon. To facilitate this the Em- bassador furnished them with the por- tralts and medallions, two busts by Houdon and authentic descriptions of the color of ‘the-admiral’s hair and | the height and measurements of his body. After the most minute examina- stantiated: Length of body, five feet seven inches, the admiral’s height; size and shape of head agree with sev- eral peculiarities identical with the head of the admiral; hair, dark brown, the same as the admiral’s, in places slightly gray, indicating a person of his age, 45 years. The hair is long, reaching below the shoulders, and is combed back and gathered in a clasp at the back of the neck. The face is| clean shaven, all corresponding exactly{ with the descriptions, portraits and busts of the admiral. The linen is in good condition. One article bears an initial, either “J” or an inverted “P.” WASHINGTON NOTIFIED. Finding that all the internal organs preserved, the | doctors made an autopsy, which showed distinct proof of the disease from which the admiral is known to have died. The identification was pro- nounced complete in every particular. Care has been taken to keep the body in its present state of preservation. Tt will be placed in a handsome casket and deposited in the receiving vault of the American Church, on the Ave- nue de I'Alma, until the Embassador can learn the opinion of the Govern- ment concerning the most appropriate means of transporting it to the United States and giving a fitting sepulcher to the body of the f{llustrious sailor whose place of burial had so long re- mained a mystery. WASHINGTON, April 14—Embassa- dor Porter’s dispatch announcing the finding of the body of John Paul Jones reached the State Department to-day. 1t is probable that a recommendation will be made to Congress at its next session looking to Embassador Por- ter’s reimbursement. The remains of John Paul Jones are to be brought here and interred in the National Ceme- tery at Arlington, and It is likely that the transfer will be made the occasion of an interesting demonstration. It is probable that Secretary Morton will send a battleship to France to bring the body home. —_— JIAY BE FREED AFTER 33 VEARS NEW YORK, April 14.—After thirty- three years of imprisonment, Libbie | Garrabrandt, the only woman ever sentenced to life imprisonment in New Jersey, will, it is believed in Trenton, be released within a short time.

Out of Proportion to the | Figure for Beef on Hoof Special Dispatch to The Call. OMAHA, April 14. — The packing plants to-day notified the retallers of | this locality that an advance in the| price of meats will take effect at once. | Beef ribs go from 9 to 12% cents; steers from 73 to 8%, and beef loins from 13 to 16. All meats advance in about the same proportion, the increase varying from a third to a fifth. The! packers give as an explanation for the sharp advance the scarcity of cattle. The South Omaha market records show that shipments are fewer than | at a corresponding time last year. Up to the present there have been 38,368 fewer cattle this year than last, reck- oning from January 1. The commission men and the heavy stock raisers thor- | oughly acquainted with the situation | are incensed at the action of the pack- | 1 ers. They declare that the increase in prices is a part of a carefully laid plan to bring about higher prices. They point out that two years ago the pack- | ing companies combined to keep down prices so that stockmen all over the Middle West engaged in ‘“feeding”| sustained heavy losses and this year either abstained from Investing In “‘feeders”” or else began feeding only In | the spring for the late summer and fall market. The stockmen declare the | increase is out of all proportion to the small increase in the price paid for beef on the hoof. - BALTIMORE, Md., April 14—Retail | meat dealers in this city have ad- vanced the price of beef on most cuts about 2 cents a pound, due to the con- tinued advance in the wholesale price. On the best grades the outside figures show a jump of from 3 to 6 cents a pound. . AUSTIN, Texas, April 14.—The legis- lative committee appointed to investi- gate the methods of the beef trust and its operations in Texas made a report to-day and stated in substance that, while {t had made much inquiry, there had not developed evidence of a | specific violation of the anti-trust law on which it could recommend the in- stigation of civil or criminal proceed- ings against any particular person or corporation. USE OF RIVERS BRINGS PROTEST WASHINGTON, April 14.—The Pres- ident has appointed a special commis- sion to deal with three important ques- tions which have arisen relative to the diversion and interference with the course of international rivers. This commission consists of Judge Penfleld, solicitor for the State Department; Special Assistant Attorney General M. C. Burch and Professor F. H. Newell of the Geological Survey. The com- mission has just had its first meeting. All the questions before the commis- sion have formed the subject of exten- sive correspondence between the State Department and Mexico on the south and the Dominion of Canada as rep- resented by Great Britain on the north. On the south there is the long-stand- ing controversy growing out of the damming of the Rio Grande and the use of the waters of the upper river for irrigation purposes in American territory to the injury of the Mexican farmers on the right bank of the river. The Mexicans claim that the Rio Grande is navigable and consequently that this diversion of the water is in violation of international law, To the westward the tommission is to deal with the Colorado River, where the upper waters in American terri- tory also are about to be diverted, to the loss of the Mexican ranches in Lower California. On the north the Milk River projects in Montana have alarmed the Canad- ians. Arising in the United States, this river flows into Canada and back again into Montana. The commission will have to deal with some entirely new questions of international law relative to riparian rights. As the result of the conference with Secretary Taft it was decided that as projects such as the international dam across the Rio Grande River and the reclamation dam the Colorado there was nothing to do but to pr ceed with the work, leaving the broad- er question of international riparian rights to be treated diplomatically. ————— Army and .avy Orders. ‘WASHINGTON, April 14.—An or- der was issued to-day from the War Department directing changes in the stations and duties of general of- ficers as follows: Major General Sam uel E.

Morgan Smith and Mrs. Smith wrongfully to obtain money from Caesar Young was dismissed in the Court of General Sessions to-day at the request of Assistant District At- torney Rand. Counsel for the Smiths demurred to the indictment against the Smiths and declared that the facts al- leged against them did not constitute & crime. The court reserved the de- cision. Counsel for the Smiths endeav- ored to seciure the return of property taken from the Smiths, but failed. Miss Patterson, who is about to be tried again for the murder of Caesar Young, was brought Into court with the Smiths. Rand told the court that a mistake had been made in drawing up the indictment against Miss Pat- | terson and that it tended to prejudice her position in the capital case. The effect of the action will be to prevent her counsel from seeing the Grand Jury minutes, which might have aided in her defense. In support of his contention that the facts charged against the Smiths did not constitute conspiracy, their coun- gel read an intercepted letter from Julia Smith to “Caesar” Young, In which the writer stated that Miss Pat- terson was about to become a mother, which is one of the allegations in the charge of conspiracy to get money from Young. He declared that false pre- tenses could not be considered extor- tion. Smith and his wife, who were excused from pleading, were remanded to the Tombs. —_——— New California Postmasters.
