NINACONBOYIN
PRAYER WHILE
JURY WRANGLES
Continues to Offer Up Silent Pc«
titions for Father During
Weary Hours
Great Crowd Throngs Court at
Closing of Former Police
Captain's "•Trial
tpur*e of the deliberation was the mer
«»st conjecture. One of the stories was
'thtt the votinp stpod II to 1 for convic
tion and this v.as maintained through
out' tbe entire evening. The rumor of
the standing of the jurors 'added to the
rumors of corruption, creating intense
fueling and excitement.
Big Crowd Present
A crowd, greater than any which has
b*en present at the trial at any time
•since it started thronged the courtroom
when tbe cslso was called in the morn
ing. As before Conboy was attended
fey his daughter, Nina. She took a seat
4>y him and the two chatted and whis
pered together with nothing in their
inann^r to show the excitement under
which they ju*t have been laboring.
The earlier part of the morning was
devoted to I-'ickert concluding his clos
ing argument for the people. .This was
along th<» sa-me lines as characterized
his speech -tliP <iay -before. lie said
that the oase was nothing mote than
that of a drunken police officer killing- 1
an inoffensive boy.
Instructions Favor Conboy
The court began reading its instruc
tions "to the jury at 10:15 o'clock and
« oncluded an hour later. The inttruc- ,
tions were remarkable for the leeway;
.which Conboy was given, most of the
instructions being in his favor. Con
boy seemed particularly pleased at this
a lid expressed himself as bein£ per-
JV-ctly KatiFtied.
Of tho instruction? the defense put
in a number, the most important ones
•Sealing with the presumption of inno- I
cencej the r<;rht of self-defense and the
fact that, while drunkkenness was no
excuse for the crime, the jury was not
to be misled by the well known doc
trine to forget that the law shielded
tlie rights of the drunken man juet as
jealously as it. did those of a sober one.
The crowj did not lessen when the
.iiiry retired. Rather did it become
ftreater. Men thronged* the court room
to ;i point of suffocation and scores of
others, unable to gain a vantage point
within, walked up and down the cor
ridors and even waited on the side-
Walks outside.
Thr moment the; door closed behind
tlie last disappearing juror Nina Con
boy bowe.l her head in prayer. Her
father gave her a side glance and
moved uneasily in his seat. Behind
her the vast throng stared awe struck,
but the .girl, unheeding, obliviou&Mo
all Kut her own srreat sorrow, con
tinued to put up her silent supplies^—
.lions. She prayed and continued to
pray all through the weary hours and
until late at night.
Continues to Pray
•
At times she lifted her tear dimmed
eves to gaze upon Conboy, but a. mo
iiK'iit later dropped them again to pray.
Around her men smoked, laughed and
talked. From- thee orridor came the
shouts and loud voices of men calling
to one another; but the girl prayed on.
She was the only woman in the placa.
and the crowd kept back at respectful
distance, even the most morbid and
« nrious «-he<-ked from trampling for
ward psst the praying daughter.
The. jury went out to lunch at 12:30
o'clock an« returned to their delibera
tions at 2 o'clock. .Conboy, with his
daughter and attorneys, was in his seat
helore they rtturn«d. As the first and
se<-ond hours dragged by without any
material result it was generally under
stood that there was another case of a
hung jury. There was no whisper of
bnbT.v, however, until it came In for
ih<- first time to say that no agreement
<"ould be reached.
POLITICAL MACHINE OF
BREWERS GIVEN JOLT
Twenty-one Saloon Licenses
Held by "Dummies" Revoked
LOS ANGEL.ES; Feb. 16.— When the
brewers realize that their business Is
the making of beer — not conducting
ihe city government — they will have
no further trouble with the police
commission," said Mayor George Alex
ander today in announcing the pol
ity of the city administration with
relation to the regulation of the
liquor traflic.
Twenty-one saloon licenses were re
voked by the police commission on
'!)p Kiound that, they were held by
•dummies" of the socalled brewery
trust." This action followed a re
port by a special, investigating com
mittee which alleged that the brew
ors werr? attempting to control the
entire saloon business of the city by
acquiring permits already granted to
individuals and bringing pressure to
brar on independents to drive them
into thr combine.
Tt was charged by the committee
that the "trust" maintained a large
rolitical fund, to which all saloon
kfepers were forced to contribute.
DRYDOCK TO BE READY
FOR USE IN 18 DAYS
Contractors Deny That Struc
ture Is Leaking
[Special Dhpatch to The Call]
/VALLEJO. Feb. 16.— The immense
drydock that has Just been completed
by the Schofield construction company
for the United States government at
Mare island, has been reported as leak*
ing-.
This is denied by Francis Smith, the

cern. He stated . today that the dock
\u25a0was in first class condition and that it
would be turned over to the govern
ment in about IS days, on the arrival
of a eet of controllers that are on their
way here from Pennsylvania and will
be placed within the cassion that was
installed last week.
The dry dock was first started seven
years &go and two construction com
panies failed -to finish the required
work before the present contractors
took hold, as the concrete trails re
fused to stay In place as there was no
foundation for them to rest against.

OLD SCHOOL BOARD
REGAINS AUTHORITY
Injunction Restrains McCarthy
Appointees From Interfer
ing With Office
(•nit imiril I'roiu Pxee 1
junction Lieutenant .Dinan refused to
honpr them. There was a lengthy dis
cussion, threats of an action to Jiave
Dinan and his' subordinates punished
for contempt of court and a hurried
telephone message to Chief Martin.
Dinan took the position that he was
acting only under the positive instruc
tions of li is superior. Martin at once
g-ave orders to permit the Taylor board
members to enter and visited the place
a few minutes later in an automobile,
withdrawing Dinan and the policemen
under him.
Leon S. Clayburgh, James J. McTier
nan and James 13. Power, the three
McCarthy appointees, had* taken pos
session of the private offices of the old
board members at* an early hour and
were disinclined to be shorn of their
recently acquired honors without pro
test. Mrs. Kincaid had by this time
joined Bannerman and Payot, and the
three presented their writs of injunc
tion to their wouldbe successors, who
voiced their objections and retired.
The overnight occupancy of the com
mission headquarters by the McCarthy
appointees had wrought several
changes. '.The locks were gone off. the
doors to the private rooms of the mem
bers, one of the desks had been opened
with a chisel and the tin signs con
taining: the names of the Taylor mem
bers-of the board had been removed
from the doors and were found bat
tered up and thrown into out of the
way corners. The Taylor members
promptly removed the sheets of paper
which bore the names of the McCarthy
appointees on the various doors and
replaced them with new sheets bear
ing, their own names.
Hard Fight Promised
Frank J. Murphy, attorney for the
administration appointees, said yester
day, afternoon that in the event of
failure In the attempt to have, the in
junctions dissolved an appeal would.be
taken and that quo warrant© proceed
ings would be instituted at the same
time. Members of the old board reit
erated their assertions that the case
would be fought to -the highest courts
for the purpose of securing a final de
termination, once for all, of the right
of a mayor to remove members of the
school board. ,' •
: Judging from tbe^'opinions delivered
by Judge Sturtevant- Tuesday -in con
nection with the board of education and
board of health ~. cases, there is little
likelihood that he will order the-pres
ent injunctions dissolved. The rule laid
down by him in those decisions was
practically to the effect that de facto
officers in actual . possession were' en
titled to nn injunction against other
claimant*, and by the- issuance of the
second injunction Tuesday evening he;
to all intents, acknowledged the Taylor
members of the, board'as the de facto
officers.
Failure oh the part of the McCarthy
appointees to have the present injunc
tion dissolved will . insure the Tayldr
members the -occupancy of the. office
for. several weeks" at, least, as neither
an appeal nor* an- action in quo war
ranto can be settled within a short
time. •
/ Attorney Arthur, Barendt,\one,of [the
Taylor members of the board of, health,
whose petition for an injunction was
refused Tuesday night, declared yes
terday that 'an appeal to the ; supreme
court in> tire board of , health cases
would be taken withoufloss of time.

howev.ef. which may compel -him to

It has been. rumored that DrJ Charles
B. Pinkham," chief "surgeon *;of: the

partment staff, is slated to succeed him.

railroad' company, which was incorpor
ated in Arizona last week with ?40,000,
000 capital, are much more extensive
construction plans than the building of
a single line to Durango.
Official-information has been obtained
as to the plans "of the Harri man" system
which will reveal the" fact that the new
construction, wiir prove one of the most
beneficial, projects, so far as Colorado
is concerned, that -have "been launched
for several years.;. The line, which Is
to be built to a connection the
Denver and Rio Grande at Durango, is
to be made a main line instead of a
branch, and it is only one of \ several
which are to be construdted.
NEW TRAXSCOXTINENTAI, LIKE
- The Arizona Eastern will be made
into a. system comprising 1,877. miles
of : track, or a system about equal in
size to the main lines of the Colorado
and Southern. : Of the $40,000,000 cap
ital stock- authorized $5,321,400 will be
used" to take over the Gila Valley, Globe
and Northern, theMaricopa and Phoe
nix, the Arizona and Colorado and the
Phoenix and Eastern, all of which are
subsidiary lines of the Southern Pa
cific. A new transcontinentariine will
be built via Yuma and Phoenix and
from this line extensions will be made
in two directions into Colorado.
The new line from Yuma on the pres
ent main. line to Phoenix will be 160
miles long. The Phoenix and Eastern
tracks will be used from Phoenix to
Wirikleman, from which point new
tracks will be constructed to Lords
burg, N.M., another point on the, pres
! ent main line. .This route will com
prise 280 miles. The main line into
Colorado .will: start .from ; Sao Carlos,
Ariz., and ruii via Talklair- to .Globe,
thence" to" the boundary ; line between
New. Mexico and Colorado, where it is
intercepted by the Las" Animai river.
In Colorado it will cc extended north
to Durango. This/line will be 42S
miles long. There will be 271 miles of
branch lines to this road, including one
from Talklair northeasterly to the New
Mexican- border, 200 miles long.

and run via Clifton to a connection
with the main line between. Aztec and
Farmington, about 75 miles south of
Durango. There will be IS7 miles of
branches and connecting links built. '
The Durango line will connect with
the new transcontinental line through
Arizona and j furnish the shortest " route
