ABANDONS GIRL T0 STRANGERS { Emma Leona Prout Robbed and Deserted by Man Who Had Agreed to Marry Her A pitiable case of desertion was made known to the police yesterday afternoon, | when Emma Leona Prout, a pretty girl, scarcely out of her teens, called at head- juarters and said she had been robbed of her diamonds, valued at $500, and of $200 in cash by E. A. McCabe, with whom she had been living for the past four vears. She said McCabe was a married man when she met him in Milwaukee | four years ago. She was then only 1§ | years of age. He was a bartender gnd | had a wife and family; but she did not | know that till they had been living to- | gether for some time. He promised to marry her as soon as he was divorced from bis wife. He has been divorced, but instead of marrying her he has deserted e | Theyr had lived in Chicago, Seattle and Portland before coming here about four months ago. On Thursday she discovered | that her diamonds and coin were missing, | and ascertained that McCabe had taken | ‘}them and had left the city, probably for | Miiwankee. She had a child, but it died and now she was again in a delicate con- dition. She sald she did not care for her- self, but she wanted McCabe'to care for the baby after it was born, The woman was advised to swear out a warrant for McCabe's arrest on ia charge of grand larceny, and she did so before Police Judge Fritz. She gave her address as 807 Turk street, but said she dia not know how long she could stay there. her desertion keenly. She sald if he would only come back to her she would forgive him, as she did not care for the loss, of the diamonds or money. She believed also that he had sold their furniture, which had been left with a storage company in Chicago, as he had told her he had sent for it, but it had never arrived. Chief Dinan will commu- nicate with the Milwaukee authorities. —————— HISTORY SAVANTS BEGIN SESSIONS Listen to Interesting Papers at Afternoon Meeting and Evening Banquet.

T. Devlin The Solicitor of the Treasury and the Attorney General of the United States are writing complaining letters about Judge de Have: jury charges and District Attormey Devlin’s fallures to convict defendants. Judge de Haven and District Attor- ney Devlin are angry and chagrined, the latter particularly, because, after asking for a subordinate’s resignation for failing to convict Cress Unger, Dev- lin made as sigoal a fallure in the same case, and when he vigorously prosecuted George A. Wright the jury acquitted the defendant. Several weeks ago United States Dis- trict Attorney Devlin received a com- | munication from the Attorney General asking why he had failed to convict Cress Unger, charged with the embez- zlement of $1500 while employed as selzure clerk in the Custom-house. Charles M. Fickert, at that time a holdover from Mr. Woodworth’s ad- ministration, prosecuted the case, but as the money had been paid in by the defendant as soon as hethad been in- formed of the deficiency, and as he had been twenty-nine years in the Custom- house, the jury refused to convict, standing ten for acquittal and two-for conviction. United States Distriet Attorney Dev- lin was very angry at the outcome, laying the blame upon Mr. shoulders. He demanded that Fickert should hand in his resignation. This Fickert refused to do. He insisted that | he had not made any mistakes in the trial and that he had handled the prosecution as well as any one could have dane. Then, according to the story told by Fickert, Devlin patted him upon the shouider in a fatherly way and said: “You are a good office lawyer, like Judge Garber, you know, but your forte does not lie before a jury in criminal cases. Now, any law- yer could have secured a coaviction in that case.” Mr. Fickert terminated his connec- tion with the office about a month later, and when Unger ‘came up for the second trial the case was ferocious- 1y prosecuted by Devlin in person and his assistant, A. P. Black, but.there was a disagreement again and Fickert wore a broad smile for three weeks. Then came the trial of George A, Wright, charged with embezzling $4000 while employed as chief deputy in the United States Internal Revenue Col- lector’s office. Mr. Devlin thought he had made out a good case of embez- zlement, but the jury, having sympathy for the young defendant, acquitted him. As a sequel to these forensic dis- asters Customs Collector Stratton re- ceived last Wednesday from the Solici- tor of the Treasury a typewritten com- munication of severdl thousand words, in which the Solicitor stated that the fact that the mtoney had not been paid back by the defendant Wright until after his defalcation had been dis- covered, had not been presented be- fore the jury in a manner sufficiently clear and impressive. The Solictor also criticized Judge de Haven's charges in these cases as confusing and incon- sistent and suggested that some one of sufficient bravery, or hardihood, as the case might be, should try to im- press Judge de Haven with the fact that his charges would be more ac- ceptable to the Solicitor of the Treas- ury if they were remodeled. Mr. Devlin, when asked yesterday whether he had received a copy of the letter of the Solicitor, declined to an- swer yea Or nay. Judge de Haven passes the matter by with silence. —_———————— WANTS SEPARATE BUILDING FOR AN EVENING SCHOOL Technical Alumnl Petitions ‘Board of Supervisors to Purchase Site in More Central Location. The San' Francisco Evening Technical Alumni, by Frederick Birdsall, presi- dent, and Franpk W. Collins, secretary, vesterday petitioned the Board of Su- pervisors to purchase for $50,000 a site on Fulton street, between Larkin ana Polk, for an evening technical school. The petition refers to the fact that a i lot situated near Golden Gate Park has been purchased on which it is proposed to erect the Polytechnic High School. The site is said to be an impossible location for an evening school, inas- | much as the attendance is drawn from the shops and the manufacturing dis- tricts. The petitioffers further state that assuming that out of the total ap- propriation of $375,000 the sum of $150,- 000 will be applied for a separate site and building for the polytechie school, there would remaln after the purchase of the lot the sum of $100,000 for an evening school. —_————— Outcault to Lecture. Richard F. Outcault, the famous hu- morist ‘and cartoonist, will give his farewell illustrated talks at Lyric Hall this and to-morrow afternoons at half- past 2.

The extended time for deposit- ing the shares expired vesterday. The announcement of the result ‘was made last evening. The consummation of the deal can- not take place until January. The syn- dicate back of the deal put up $500,- 000 some time ago as a forfeit. Pro- vision was made that the syndicate should have until January to .make payment for the shares of the San Francisco Gas and Electric Company |on the basis of $90 a share, $25 per share to be in cash and the remainder In bonds. The bonds will be ready for dellvery in January and also the cash, 80 the parties in interest say. * I. W. Hellman Jr. sald at the Union Trust Company Bank last evening: “There is nothing that I can say ex- cept that more stock of both the San Francisco Gas and Electric Company and the California Gas and Electric Corporation has been deposited than was requisite to ratify the agreement. It was neceSsary that 80,000 shares of the California Corporation and 106,000 shares of the San Francisco Company should be turned over. The shares de- posited number 96,317 in the case of the California Gas and Electric Corpora- tion and 147,084 of the San Francisco Gas and Electric Company.. As far as the stockholders of .these two compa- nies are concerned, there is nothing to do until Halsey & Co. deposit the bal- ance’ot the money to make up the $25 a share and deliver to us the preferred stock of the new company and the bonds to complete the purchase. The transaction has been completed as far as it can be completed at this time. No additional payment of cash and no de- livery of ttocks or bonds is due until the consummation of the deal In Jan- uary.” No statement was given out yester- day at the office of Halsey & Co., with the exception that there was no doubt that all the conditions will be fulfilled in January to make- the deal effective. i Bring the Childrento Marks Bros.

FINDS ENILES *IAE SHIFTLESS Herr Iden-Zeller Says That the Siberian Prisoners Are of Little Account Iden-Zeller, representing the Berliner Tageblatt, one of the foremost journals of Germany, has been making a toyr throughout Sfberfa on foot, which has been accomplished in a year and six months. He arrived in the city yesterday from Portland on the steamer F. A. Kil- burn. Iden-Zeller has had some remarkable experiences during his travels, and none are more interesting than those which hs encountered in the exile towns. & Since the close of the Russian-Japanese war the German newspaper an finds a vastly improved condition. The prisoners, he says, are not treated nearly so cruelly as they were prior to the outbreak of hostilities, and now flogging s a thing of the past. Iden-Zeller speaks of the Russian exiles as follows: I itve damong the exiles for one year and had good unity of moting their materfal and spiritual condition. - They live falrly well, but are almost alto- gother without religion. They are for most revolutionists and it is pretty hard. to v sympathy for them because of their They are mostly students and men have given up their professions and trades, preferring to live a shiftless life and rail against thelr Government.
