Ryan split them asunder and arrested John on Otto’s complaint of attempted rob- bery. In the court of Judge Mogan it was stated that John and Otto met for the first time on the Barbary Coast and each was so fascinated by the other that they got drunk together and continued drinking util all their money was gone. Then it was that Otto bethought him of collecting $20 from a creditor on Third street, John accompanied him thither. While en route Otto called at his apartment in the St. George Hotel and took his mantel clock along with intent to get it repaired, and John coaxed him to pawn the timepiece and devote the cash proceeds to purchase of liguor, Otto obstinately refused to accede to John's request and in desperation John was trying to commandeer the clock when the policeman intervened. When the Judge had patiently heard the fore- Boing story he reduced the charge to that of simple assault and promised to pronounce John's sentence to-day. it L e “Having undersized female crabs in ssion,” was the misdemeanor of | which Glacoma Droghetti stood form- ally accused before Judge Cabaniss by | State Fish Commissioner Alex Vogel- | sang.

She was booked on two charges of grand lar- ceny and Judge Conlan continued the hearing until, this morning. While in court Miss Walker-Norton prudently declined to discuss her situ- ation. “I have nothing to say,” she informed the inquisitive, “nor will I have anything to say until the proper time arrives.” She wore a brown op- such proof it might be mecessary: to subject the exhibit to dissection by a scientist, but the defense was in no hurry—it would cheerfully walt. “But will the crab wait?” inquired his Honor, gingerly picking up the crustacean and gazing at it. “Experi- ence with dead crabs has taught me to regard them as peculiarly suscepti- ble to rapld decay, even after they have been bolled.” “Perhaps experience has also equipped you with ability to ascertain the sex of that crab without enlisting sclence to ald you?” hopefully ven- tured the prosecution. “No, it has not,” was the disappoint- ing response. ‘“For the sake of all concerned I would like to settle that vexing question right here and now, but alas, there is a limit to human attainment.

There she swore out two | warrants charging her recent financial manager, Dr. jur Julio Ziegner Uriburu, with embezzlement. She was accom- panied 'y her attorney, Alexander Heyneman. It had-been whispered that the ar- rest was caused through motives of Jjealousy on the part of one of the tenor | singers of the company. This sugges- tion was scoffed at by Tetrazzinl. “Affairs of the heart,” she said. | nothing to do in the case. a business affair, nothing more.” When she appeared in court her lovely voice that was wont to warble. “had cees and dees in the “Lucia,” to the wild delight of great audience, was for the nonce para- lyzed. The straln of excitement attendinz the loss of her money had been too much for her. When she stood before Judge Conlan to swear to the com- | plaint she could not speak abdve a whisper. The same captivating smile that had sunk deep into the hearts of her audiences here, was still there. It was liberally displayed in Judge Con- lan’s court to a large audlence of of- ficials and attaches of the Hall of Justice, who came in to get a glance of one of the great songbirds of the world. The two complaints sworn to by the fair soingstress, charged Uriburu with having failed to remit the sum of 2000 francs on February 21, and 2000 francs on March 21, to her dressmaker. Sorello Dameno in Milan. This money Tetraz- zini avers she gave to Uriburu to for- ward. She says he did not send the money, though he pretended he had. WARRANTS ARE SERVED. As soon as the warrants had been is- sued they were served on Uriburu by Detectives Wren and Reynolds, who have charge of the case. Among the effects taken from Uri- buru when he was arrested was a draft upon A. Gibbs & Sons, London. in Uri- buru's favor, for $15,000, dated San Francisco, March 15, 1905, and signed by Prinz Adalbert of Austria, who is one day likely to be ruler over that country. Attached to this draft was a letter to Gibbs & Sons, also purported to be signed by Prinz Adalbert. The letter read as follows: Consulate de la Republica Argentina, San Francisco, 156 de March, 1905.—Messers. A. Gibbs and Sons, Biiliter Buflding, London, E. —Dear Sirs: “Kindly note that 1 have issued on your goodselves §15,000 exchange on Banco Nacional, Mexico, in care of our family friend. Yours faithtully, PRINZ ADALBERT VON OESTERREICH, e This letter and draft he is reported to have flourished before Tetrazzini and others with whom he wanted to obtain financial standing. He also had in his possession an un- signed draft in duplicate for 67,000 francs. It was dated San Francisco, April 19, 1905. Two complimentary tickets to the California Jockey Club were conspicuous in his effects. There was also a deposit tag for $4497 50 in_ the Swiss-American Bank, which he had deposited there to Tet- razzini’s credit. This amount was found to be in the bank intact. Through an interpreter Tetrazzini said: I'met Uriburu ten years ago in Buenos Ayres. 1 was singing there and he came on the stage to make my acquaintance. I had trouble with my impressarfos and Uriburu came to my rescue and helpsd me out. We were friends, nothing more. I never.met him in Peru, as has been stated. He might have met my sister there. When I came up to the City of Mexico Uriburu acted as my financial agent there. He said he could always arrange banking matters to advantage. Well, he has arranged them evidently to his advantage, for I now find I am 27,000 francs short. My ward- robe, which is worth about $20,000, I had mads in Milan. When T wanted a new gown I would order it from my dressmaker, Sorello Dameno, and they would send it to me. My contract ‘with them was to _send them 2000 francs on the 21st day of each month. TRUSTED URIBURU. 1 intrusted the sending of some of this money to Uriburu. Nine thousand francs of this amount did not go. I also gave . him $6000 In Mexican money when I was in the City of Mexico to send to my bankers in Paris. This money never reached lts destina- tion. Altogether I am out 27,000 francs. ‘When asked whether, as Uriburu had stated, it was a plot raised by the tenor, Bazelli, to oust Uriburu from the favors of the Tivoll star, Tetraz- zini burst into fitssof laughter. Point- ing her finger at Bazell, who was sitting in the opposite corner of the room, she said: “Isn't that ridiculous? I suppose, perhape, that Uriburu will now slaim that Bazelli signed the ‘fake’ bank re- ceipts that he (Uriburu) gave me.” Uriburu looked serious yesterday, so soon as he learned that Tetrazzini had sworn out the warrants charging him with embezzlement. He presented a woe-begone expression. He said he wanted to see a lawyer. His friend, E. C. Cullen; who knew him in Buenos Ayres, was in consultation with him and acted as his Interpreter.

Regarding the draft for $15,000 drawn upon A. Gibbs & Sons, London, he de- clined to make any statement. He, however, stoutly asserted that he and Tetrazzinl had been on the most inti- mate terms of friendship. He said his arrest was the result of a plot ralsed by Baszelli because Bazelll was jealous of him and wanted to get him discharged as manager.
