The food had to be given with a 30011. for his mouth was covered ‘with crusts as thick as a finger, and when- ever he opened the mouth they bey to bleed and suppurate, as did elso hi eyes. Hands, arms, chest, and back, in short the whole body was covered over and over. We had no rest by day or night. Whenever he was laid in his bed, we had to his hands down otherwise he would scratch his face and make an open sore.

After repeated knock. |Ing the door was opened and William Munay, a freight handler, stepped out. There was little argument: the mer | mixed at once. Watson drew a revolver and fired at Munay. His aim was poor {2nd the bullet lodged in the wall of the |passageway. But the shot attracted | the police, who placed the trio under ar- | rest. taking Munay to the Central Emer. | Bency Hospital to be bandaged up. A | complaint was lodged against Watson | charging him with assault to commit | murder; Munay was discharged from | the hospital and released from custody | this morning. The woman is retained |as a witness. At first Mrs. Watson informed the police that she had been married to | Munay last month, after getting a d1- vorce from Watson. The latter denied | this, and his statement was corrobo- rated by a note given to the landlady | Saturday night by Mrs. Watsog, telling { her that she was afraid of her husband |2nd begging the landlady to keep him | away from their apartments. PATROLMEN VICTORIOUS IN AN UNEQUAL FIGHT Bruised Faces and Bandaged Heads Result From Encounter gedy | As Patroimen A. W. McPhee and | Cummings of the Southern station were | returning to their homes about 2:30 { o'clock yesterday morning they en- |countered four noisy and drunken | revelers on lower Mission street, fight- ing among themselves. When the of- ficers attempted to pry them apart the four members of the belligerent quar- | tet turned on the bluecoats and made |2 desperate fight. The officers drew their clubs and waded in. When it was all over the four peacebreakers were stretched on the sidewalk, while the officers, still able to “go some,” were badly beaten up In the unequal fight. After a session at the Emergency Hospital the patched and bandaged fighting men were charged with dis- turbing the peace and battery and placed in the Southérn station. They were released vesterday on $15 bail each. According to the records, the members of the inharmonious quartet were as follows: John Renfro, Nicholas Breitbach, Edward Jeldrkin and Wil- liam Quinn. They gave their occupa- tions as laborers. : * | A brick famine is on, notwithstand- ance, % woman in | ite fluffy waist and Na- | to dine in | The | N Bring your policies to | e Policy-holders’ Company, 1un1 Posrz‘ reet, corner of Fillmore ¥ BAICK FAMINE NOW CONFRONTS BUILDERS OF SAN FRANGISEO Prices Soar Skyward and Trust Cannot Supply the Demand OWNERS WON'T SELL NN | Proprietors of Uncleaned | Lots Reserve Building Material for Own Use | e Mortar, mortar everywhere And not a decent brick. If the ancient mariner were to have | ehanged places pvith a contractor in/ | San Francisco hé would have come to| the conclusion that even a skyscraper | | might become under certain circum- | stances nearly as idle as a painted ship | upon a painted ocean. |ing that ten months ago the wise old | Bast was saying that it would require | | ten years to remove the debris from | | the burned district. Nearly all of the| | surface indications of the great fire | have been eliminated, and while at | every hand are lots deep 4n bricks, the | tempting high wall is gone, and the| | man who waxed financially fat on the | brick-cleaning machines’ output is {looking around for owners who have | bricks that are easy to handle and de- |llver from the scraper at $9 per thou- sand. | New bricks have gone up to $13.50 in many cases, and the brick trust de- clares that its three big yards are un- | | able to turn out the little red oblongs | fast enough to fill the demand. And, lof course, all know that a trust was [ never known to lie. \ | The contractors say that a rather pe- | culiar state of affairs exists in the brick | market. Many men are anxious to | buy bricks from property-owners who have uncleaned lots in the burned dis- | | trict, but the owners for some unknown | reason are slow to make terms. Con- tractors pay about $3 per thousand for | “debris” bricks.” clean them, stack {them up and selt them to builders. All the owner has to do is to count the! stacks and draw down his money. the average owner apparently believes that he would better keep his bricks and use them himself when he starts to build. In the meantime the brick | trust announces that it is up to its ca- | pacity of production and bricks will | probably pass as common tender be- fore long. The man without the price can truthfully sing: In those damndest finest ruins ! T would rather be a brick | Reinforced concrete may be the un- | doing of the trust, but the brick is a brick for a’ that. THIES TOKILL HIS WIFE WITH A GARVING KNIFE Husband’s Excuse Is That Woman’s Brother Was a Criminal Summoned to a house at 3812 Eight- eenth street by a woman's screams at 3 o’clock yesterday morning, Policeman J. R. Dower arrestéd Frederick Jost, a | satchal-maker. Jost was brandishing |2 large knifs and threatening to mur- {der his wife. Mrs. J6st was in a front | room, calling through an open window to break open the door to the apart- | | ment. | | Mrs. Jost was a sister of Charles H. Moller, who committed suicide in Berkeley on Tuesday of last week after | his flight had been stopped by -a bul- | let from the revolver of Chief of Police | Volimer of the college town. Moller | bad shot and seriously, injured his brother-in-law, Hans Jensen, because the latter interfered to save Mrs. Mol- |ler from a beating. Mrs. Jost told the policeman that the sole reason for her husband’s attempt |to take her life was her relationship {to the suicide. He had taunted her | with belonging to a family of crimi- | nals. | Jost spent Saturday evening at a | lodge meeting and returned to his home at 2:30 o'clock yesterday morn- ing. Awakening his wife and ordering | her to prepare a meal, he calmly in-| | formed her that he had decided to kill |her. Then he got a carving knife and | whetted it on a steel sharpener while |awaiting his meal. When he had| | brought the blade to a razor edge he started toward his wife. “Tou'll soon be with your brother, Charley, where the rest of your family | belong,” he exclaimed. | Mrs. Jost dashed out of the door just in time to escape him and gained an- | other room, where she locked the door. | While she was screaming for help tie { murderous husband battered the door furiously in an attempt to gain admit- tance to the room. Jost was booked at the Central po- lice station on a charge of having made threats against life, and later effected | his release by depositing $100 cash bail, with the promise that he would remain |away from his home. . | Mrs. Jost said that she and her hus- band had had no domestic troubles during their ten years of married life until her brother's recent crime in- volved the family in notoriety.
