Collins on a charge of perjury before Judge Lennon contined yesterday, and it is announced that the last direct witness for the State will appear af noon to-day. The fore part of yesterday's proceedings was marked with prolonged and bitter wrangling be- tween the opposing attorneys and -the bickerings became so pronounced as to cause Judge Lennon 0 put a stop tu them. In particular the court addressed ltl(‘.- marks to Colline, and warned him if asides and insinuations continued he would find means and occasion to_punish him. In the afternoon Attorney Johnson received a ‘‘call down” from the Judge, who warned him that he would be puns< ished if further wrangling took place. During the rest of the day the proceed- ings were pleasantly free from imterrup- tion and-irrelevant comment. The witnesses examined by the prose- cution yesterday only gave a repetition of the fact that Charlotta Newman was magried George D.,Collins in 1889, The first witness of the day was Jo- sephine Angelo, cook in the Collins home, who testified that Collins gave her a note to Charlotta Collins as his wife. She also said that the children called him ‘“papa’ and called Charlotta “mamma.” BYINGTON WARNED. Dr. Nathan Rogers next testified to the birth of the children. Noting District At- torney Byington's repeated references to Chariotta Newman Collins as ‘“Mrs. Col- lins,” the court warned him not to pre- judge the case. After Dr. Rogers had been taken .in hand by Collins, he was asked under what cwrcumstances he signed the death certificate of a 'child of Agnes and Gecrge llins, and the death certificate of Agnes M. Collins. The ques- tion was. overruled, as not cross-exam- ination, and it is probable Dr. Rogers v\lll be summoned by the defense. Florence Newman was called to -the stand early in the day and substantiated the testimony of Henry Newman, adding a little more detail. She described the ceremony of marriage performed by Father Connolly in 8t. John the Bap- tist'’s Church in 1889, At the beginning of the cross-examina- tion Collins made a remark to the court that the latter deemed impertinent, and Judge Lennon said: “You will make one | of those remarks too ‘often, and you'll { have a rest and so will L.” Florence w: | then auestioned by Collins as to her re- lations with a certain Thomas Ladd, and admitted left the entrgnce of the Clifford House in his company, after being | driven by Collins from the latter's resi- | dence. WOULD INJURE COLLINS. “I would do anything I could,” con- tinued the witness, “to injure the defend- ant, and hope he will be sent -to San Quentin.”” This testimony pleased Col- lins, who caused her to admis that her unfriendliness was the reason for.her ap- pearance in the courtroom to give testi- mony, Later in the day, when recalled to the stand, Byington, by every means, endeavored to get the witness to softén her answers and show the-cause of her ill feeling, but was repeatedly overruled by | the court, who held that the reasons were immaterial, if ill feeling was shown. William Newman testified in substantia- tion of his sister’s testimony regarding the marriage. He likewise admitted him- self to be unfriendly, and stated that he would do anything in his power to injure | Colli: He was later allowed to explain the meaning of his statement, and said | that he would not wrong-the defendant, | but would tell the truth about him. He was compelled to admit that Agnes lived at the residence of Collins after thé mar- riage in 1589 until her death. Theodore Kytka, handwriting expert, was called by the State to testify to the signatures of Collins. He had prepared photographic enlargements and was about to demonstrate his theories, when Col- lins called attention to the fact that there was no denial of signatures, and Kytka was compelled to retire. James H. McCullough, clerk at the Pal- ace Hotel, testified to the writing on the register, and Clerk of the Court J. B. Martin to the signatures on the affida- vits. The Rev. Cornelius E. Kennedy was | recalled to identify the handwriting of | Father Connolly on the marriage certifi- ‘(‘Me and the Rev.

City Bacteriologist Canney yesterday filed a report on his analysis of a sam- ple of water taken from a well on the premises’ occupied by William Hart at 406 Carolina street. He recommends that the well be condemned. Dr. W. F. Barbat - had submitted the sample, as he suspected that the death of an in- fant of Hart was caused by the pres- ence of germs in the water. Canney reports that the sample shows a growth of 3640 colonies per cubie centimeter and it ferments a small amount of gas. Canney's recommenda- tion that the well be condemned on ac- count of the high colonies will be put into effect by Health Officer Ra, The owners of the premises will be di- rected to fill up the well at once and in the event of their failure to ‘do so the Board of Works wlll be called upon to tak..gctlan.

Bray Says Harry Daw- son, Ex-Conviet, Knocked ~Her Down and Took Purse MOOD IN A LENIENT Says She Doesn’t Care to Prosecute, but Is Sub- penaed to Appear in Courtl Harry Dawson was arrested -on Tues- day afterncen in a wool house at Fifth and Bluxome streets, where he was em- ployed, by Detectives Régan and O'Con- nell. He is accused by Mrs. Rose Bray of 15 Victor street of knocking her down and robbing her of her purse, containit $18, on Saturday night. Mrs. Bray told Captain Burnett yester- day that while she was walking along Bryant street, between Sixth and Sev- enth, on Saturday night, on her way home,” she met Dawszon. She knew him, as they worked in the wool house. Me ked her for 50 cents, saying he was and she handed him a half-dol- her purse. They walked along together a short distance, whem Dawson knocked her down and snatched her purse, she declares. She screamed, and he ran away. ‘When' Mrs. Bray reached home she told her mother what Dawson had done. The parent wanted her to notify the police, but she would not do so. Her mother, however, did so, and Dawson was ar- rested. Mrs. Bray declared to Captain Burnett that she would not prosecute Dawson, but she was taken before Police Judge Ca- baniss and served with a subpena to be in court this morning to swear to a coms plaint charging him with robbery. Dawson denied to Captain Burnett that he had committed the robbery. He said he had been working in. the wool house, where he was arrested, for the last thir- teen years, but the police records show that he was not teliing the truth. On June 2, 1900, he was sent from Tuolumne Coun- ty to San Quentin to serve a sentence of four years for burglary in the second de- gree. lar ——————————— MINISTERS REFUSE TO MARRY DIVORCED PEOPLE Wood and Louise Tyler Have Trouble in Getting Nuptial Knot Tied. John R. Wood and Mrs. Louise W. Tyler were married last night. The marriage was the aftermath of the sen- sational divorge case in which the groom recently figured. The couple had some trouble in get- ting the knot tied. It is rumored that several clergymen were asked to make the twain one, but all refused to take part in that office. Among the number called upon was the Rev. Mr. Herbert Hayes, pastor of Westminster Presbyterian Church, who flatly declined to perform the ceremony for the reason that he would not marry divorced persons. Finally, after many unsuccessful at- tempts to" become united, Justice of the Peace John L. Van Nostrand was called upon at his residence at 10 o’clock last night, where the couple were married. In the divorce case in hich .the groom figured so prominently he was charged by his former wife, Ada M. Wood, with too close intimacy with Mrs. Tyler. Mrs. Wood began her suit for divorce June 16, 1804. » She wanted large sums ef alimony, but the defendant said he could not pay them, and while the suit was go- ing on he lost his position as paying teller of the Crocker-Woolworth Bank. At the time the trouble began which caused the foundation for the divorce Mrs. Tyler was postmistress at Mill Valley. J. R. ——————————— Bank Clerks Hear Lecture. Professor A.-C.
