C., Nov. 2— For collecting money from the lo cal Japanese and Chinese under the gulse of a missionary agent, when ft ts alleged be had no right to solicit subsertptions because his credentials were stolen ones, Elmer J. Potts was arrested here early yesterday afternoon on information received from Onkland, Cal, two weeks ago. Potts, who hatls from Kansas City, says that he is a properly accredited agent of a native Oriental missicuary soctety, but advices from the south state that while he once was an agent for this organization, he was later ejected. The polico in Oakland claim that he got the credentials of another man and then illegally collected a large amount of money from the Japanese and Chinese there, which never went into mis Istonary coffers. No one knows |where the man has been during | the past two weeks, but it is con jectured that he has collected in the cities slong the const. As the Vancouver police have been watch- ling for him he could not have been in this city for more than a day or two, When arrested yesterday, he bad only @ few dollars tn his possession. In case the local Orten- tals do not file an information against him, Potts will be held for the Oakland authorities. GRIEF OVER DEAD CHILD ILLS CLUB WOMAN OF OAKLAND SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 2— Grief over the death of her baby who dled sevoral weeks ago is be-| jHeved to have been the cause of the death of Mra. Dolores De Luna, & prominent club woman of Oak land, who was picked up uncon- |sctous on Mission street last night. | She was rushed to the Central lemergency hospital and treated for possible apoplexy. Physicians failed to resuscitate her and she died three hours later on the oper ating table. From early in the forenoon until Hate in the day, Mrs. De Luna re | mained in a local cemetery mourn- ling over the grave of her baby. She was on the way to the ferry build- ing when she fell in a swoon at First and Mission ste. Her hus band declares that she was not sub- ject to attacks of any sort and be scouts the idea of poison. He ex- preswed the belief that constant brooding over the loss of the child | was responatble for her death. Save @ GS 4) Q) < © This Savings Bank Good All the Time Save 100) Save (i! 4 .

After that I was an animal man, tamin’ lions and tigers, But I got clawed up a bit, and since then I couldn’t go back to it.” With that we turned in. It was 6 o'clock when Belcher called me for breakfast. The male employes were already seated when I reached the dining room. Already great swarms of flies were flitting about the tables, It was my first view of bad sanitary condi tions that I was to find later all through the institution POOR FOOD AT HOSPITAL. The bill of fare was mush, bacon dipped in brine, fried pota toes and hot cakes. The coffee was very bad, the butter worse, and the bread smelled damp, as though it had been kept in the ice box After breakfast, Belcher took me to the third floor, where I was to work. And here I got my first view of the way King county takes care of its poor and helpless—my first view of the horrors of the County hospital NO CARE AGAINST CONTAGION. There were more than 70 patients here, suffering with every kind of disease Contagious and delirious patients lay side by side, Here were the accident cases and the paralytics. The third floor is the medical ward proper, and those needing constant medical attention and convalescents are kept on this floor Some were bedridden, others were so feeble that they could not dress themselves. There were five nurses on this floor-—Miss Hfrriett Smith, the head nurse, Miss Margaret MacGregor, Miss Minnie Daniels, selcher, and myself. I was put in charge of wards 25 and 26, with 20 patients to look after, There was a horrible odor about the place. It was dirty Germs of a hundred diseases floated through the corridors— spread from patient to patient. On the third floor, flanked on all sides by wards, are two large toilet and wash rooms.’ The patients themselves are supposed to keep them clean, They are washed out every morning by a patient over 90 years old. He is feeble and infirm, and entirely incompetent to perform the work so vital to the health of the invalids on that floor In one corner of cach ward is a large metallic cask, where rags, bandages, absorbent cotton and other refuse from the operating and dressing are dumped. The cask is emptied once each day, but never steamed or washed out. As a result it is covered with a heavy crust of disease-breeding material both inside and out. Millions of flies swarmed over the casks, and then went from there to the patients’ beds, lighting on their faces and their food, carrying countless germs of disease. Soth the Wednesday and Thursday after my arrival, the toilets in the south end of the building were clogged up and overflowed clear to the doors of the wards. There was a deathly stench. None of the officials got excited over the matter. It seemed all a matter of course. Both times it was several hours béfore the repairs were made. William Lind, the janitor, who was finally called in, is also carpenter, plumber and errand boy for the institution. “DRESSING ROOM” THE WORST. The worst sanitary conditions I found—and the worst I have seen anywhere-—were in the “dressing room,” where chronic and surgical cases are attended to. It is a room about 12 by 12 feet, located just opposite the typhoid ward, In one corner of this room are four small pails—the refuse Into them are thrown bandages, rags, absorbent cotton, rags of every description Often | when-15 or 20 patients have been “dressed” the pails overflow and the floor around is a mass of rags and refuse. FLIES ARE EVERYWHERE. Flies swarm about these pails, and fly from them to the patients’ faces, and across the hall to the typhoid ward, and down the halls to the regular hospital wards, and on to the dining room . rooms pails rags beyond description These pails are supposed to be emptied daily, but often I found them at night still untouched. Worse. still—a thing that would make a careful surgeon shrink in horror—the surgical instruments, the gauze, and other material used to “dress” the wounds are exposed to these germs from the floor—and the germs from the typhoid wards— and to the flies that are everywhere. SS ROADHOUSE MAN IS BOUND OVER JUDGE SAYS 8IX MONTHS JAIL 18 NOT TOO SEVERE A SENTENCE. IN | Frederick B. Cook, a “lifer” in the San Quentin penitentiary who kill ed Henry Mayer, a fellow convict, yesterday afternoon with an iron bar, will be given a preliminary examination before Justice of the Peace William Magee at San Rafael Thursday. It ts stated by prison officials that Cook probab ly will never hang for the murder, as he has a strong case Indicating that Mayer was killed in self de. fense. NO WOMEN JURORS “Six months In the county Jail is none too heavy a sen- tence to b ted out for such an offe you are charged with, and | will bind you over to the superior court under $1,600 bonds.” With these words, Justice of the Peace John B, Gordon relieved the fears of any who thought he might be lenient with Charles Ufen, proprietor of the Horseshoe saloon in Georgetown, who sold liquor to \the automobile party of minors |which plunged off of the Fourth ay. brdge on the morning of Sep. | tember causing the death of (ay 3 Press.)
