.CLEVER STUDENTS Members of the Junior Class at Stanford to Give Entertainment Tonight. L N CATC READY TO MARCH AGAINST FISK Preparations for an Active Campaign in Thirty-Sev- enth Assembly District Y OPERA N FRED .JONES IN PERIL Colonel Forbes of the North Is Organizing a Large Syndicate of Newspapers e Politiclans are hinting that A. Ruef | intends to make trouble for Arthur G. Fisk, Willlam J. Ruddlc- kand George D. Clark in the Thirty-seventh Assem- | bly District. If Ruef should happen to get the upper hand in that district Fred Jones' prospects of re-election to the Legislature would not bhe improved. More than a little significance is at- tached to a call for a meeting at Young Men's Hebrew Hall on Page street, near anyan, for the ostensible purpose ‘of organizing the Western Improvement Club. The evening of April 5 Is des- ignated as the time for the meeting. are Ben Salomon, J. fleld and J. J. Donovan. The named was chief clerk in the Sheriff's office under Peter Curtis. In the lower and the Gallaghers are sald to be mass- ing under tiie banner of Ruef. A sim- ultaneous advance from both ends 1g.lin<[ the center, where Fisk Is in- | tres nched, may be contemplated. Last summer Postmaster Fisk went in and wrested control of the old Re- publican county committee irom Ruef and delivered the goods through Herrin to the organizers of the fusion cam- paign. Ruef is obviously getting ready to invade the Thirty-seventh and re- taliate. It is surmised that Senator | Wolf and Charles Morris of the Thairty- eighth will extend sympathy, if not | help, to the Ruef forces in the Thirty- seventh. NO RAILROAD CANDIDATE. The contest In the Thirty-seventh will not have special bearing on the gubernatorial contest. Herrin will stand delegation if Fisk and Ruef break even or either wins out. At the present time the Southern Pacific has no candidate for Governor, but this apparent apathy does not signify that a Republican dele- gation from the Thirty-seventh or any other Assembly district would not be acceptable at rallroad headquarters. | Delegates chosen to nominate a Gov- ernor may also have the privilege of nominating Railroad Commissioners and members of the State Board of Dqualization. The Southern 'Pacific's definition of a sauare, honest delega- tion is one that will take the entire programme at the first station and go | the whole route. It remains to be seen | whether a delegation of that kind from | the Thirty-seventh can be delivered. The views of Colonel E. A. Forbes of fuba will surely count for something in the political campaign this year. is rumored that he intends to organize a formidable newspaper syndicate. He now owns or controls the Marysville i | Democrat and Marysville Appeal. the | Chico Enterprise and the Chico Post. | Rumor goes that he is negotiating for the purchase of a newspaper in Colusa and one in Oroville. W. P. Hammon, the “gold dredger Kking,” who is re- ported to be Colonel Forbes' choice for Governor, is sald to be richer than Warren Porter of Santa Cruz.

AMERICAN CIGAR COMPANY AFTER PHOTOGRAPHS OF MARKET STREET Miles Brothers Would Show Four years | | Moving Pictures in"' | the East. Miles Brothers yesterday asked per- mission of the United Raiiroads for the use of a street car one day this week in order to obtain moving pictures of Mar- ket street. It is the purpose of the pic- ture men to exhibit %hese pictures throughout the eastern cities of the Tnited States and aiso throughout Eu- ope. General Manager Chapman of the United Railroads took the matter under advisement with a promise to give his answer soon. Miles Brothers declare that the pictures they -desire to take will greatly benefit San Franciseo in particular and Cali- fornia as a whole. They wish to take pictures cf other cities on the coast as well and to show them. They have tried to take them from the front end of an automobile, but the vibratory motion is so severe that the films are biurred gnd so priut indistinctly. Miles Brothers say that San Francisco has been painted by writers as a beauti- ful city, but that few pictures of its beauties have circulated over the world. They say that the few pictures now o¢n exhibition are mostly of China- town and of the Italian quarter. Market street is, they say, one of the greatest streets in the world, and they propose to have the world learn of its magnifi- cence, ————— FAMOUS ARTIST IS HERE TO PAINT CALIFORNIA Vernon Howe Bailey Arrived In San Franelsco Yesterday for a Tour of the State, Vernon Howe Bailey, the famous ar- tist of the East. arrived in San Fran- cisco yesterday and took rooms at the Occidental Hotel.

Hart was jast seen alive on the Third street wharf on Monday, and it is subhosed he had accl- dentally fallen into the bay. Hie disappear- ance was revorted at the Coroner’s office a few hours before the body was found. He was 23 years of age and lived at 84 Dore street. Baking — PURE AND HEALTHFUL. — galore. He was welcome everywhere.. No better sport lived in the whole city of the ‘West. The name Graef meant the open sesame for a ‘“good time.” The $i800 he borrowed from the pretty nurse only lasted a short time, and then came the draft on the cafes and saloons that he was wont to visit. He touched them all late one Saturday with fictitious checks, and on, the next Monday, when the checks were presented to the banks, Cossmann or' Dr. Graef was “no more.” He had fled to parts unknown. —_— e Protest Against Franchise. The members of the Municipal Own- ership League, through their secretary, Edward P. E. Troy, have sent a long petition to the Board of Harbor Com- missioners protesting against the pro- posed granting of a franchise to the United Rallroads to construct a loop at the ferry depot. The league men say the property is too valuable to be put to such a use and that the United Ralilroadg Is not worthy to acquire it on such terms as it proposes. The mat- ter will come up before the Harbor Commission at its meeting this after- noon. MAN UNDER ARREST HEIR TO FORTUNE Jacob Cossmann Brought Back From New Orleans to Stand Trial. Jacob Cossmann was breught back from New Orleans yesterday morning by De- tective Whitaker to answer a charge of passing a fictitious check. In February last he passed two checks for $75 each on Haas Brothe: confecticners, and one for $60 on Clarence Celman, the hatter, all drawn on the American National Bank. He fled and was captured in New Orleans. A few days ago Cossmann, on reaching the age of 31 years, became heir to 120,000 marks left him by a rich -incle in Ger- many. Last Fcbruary he teld his friends here that he was going to Germany to claim the inheritarce and borrowed money from them to pay his expenses. He, @id not consider the amount sufficient, and passed the fictitious checks. Cossman was sent hcre from Germany by his people to get him away from evil RIEGELHAUPT’S BROTHER SEEKS TO BREAK HIS WILL Alleges That His Housekeeper Unduly Influenced Him When He Was Intoxicated. Bridget Hynes, who was held for a time on the theory that she was re- sponsible for the death of the late Philip Riegelhaupt, but who was cleared of all suspicion when the au- topsy disclosed the fact that death re- sulted from natural causes, was made the defendant yesterday In a contest of the will of the deceased flled by Henry Riegelhaupt, his brother. Though Mrs. Hynes, who was house- keeper for the deceased, was be- queathed only a house and lot In Ala- meda, valued at $450, the contestant alleges that she unduly influenced him to execute his will. It is averred that late in life the deceased was.,addicted to the use of alcohol and that while under its influence Mrs. Hynes con- trolled his actions. The bulk of his $25,000 estate the testator bequeathed to his two brothers and one sister, the contestant receiving a third thereof. compantons. He recelved regular remit- tances, but to increase his income he re- sorted to forgery, and in 1%2 he was con- victed of that crime and sentenced to serve two years in San Qufntin. Shortly after his release he was arrested on a - charge of burglary, but the charge was reduced to petty larceny and he was sen- tenced to serve six montbs in the County Jail. A few months ago Cossmann cut a merry swath in the eity, not only among the social contingent and medicos, but also those who trail along thé rosy path. For some time ‘he posed as Dr. Graef. Under this cognomen he visited many of the leading soclal families of the city. And under this name he became friendly with the physicians of St. Francis Hospi- tal. Here he courted and won the affec- tions of one of the most beautiful nurs:s in that institution. He made love to her in his most ardent German fashion ani his love seemed so sincere that he gained the promise of this lovely girl to become his wife. In the meantime he had learned that his fiancee had in the bank $1800 to her credit, the result of her hard earned savings. ‘When he learned this he told her that he knew of Investments that would net her ten-fold, and if she would hand the money over to him he would place it wlere it would bring back these immense returns. She gave him the money. That was the last she ever saw of her lover or her money. In the .meantime Cossmann (or Graef, as he was posing at this period) was running things with .a high hand in the tenderloin. He was the gayest of all the gilded youth that flit around in the circles of the gflded halls. Everywhere the hand” was ex- tended to him. His advent into any of the - dainty gd-cel of pleasure. was the signal for the openirg up-of champagne day and Friday.
