FATHER CLAIMS

FORMER LOTTERY KING AC
CUSED OF DISTURBANCE
WISSOURIAN SAYS WAS BARRED
FROM HIS OWN HOME
Herman Brunner Confessed He Swore
When His Family Re/used Him
Admittance to His $40,.
000 Residence
"Lies! Lies." shouted Herman Brun
ner, former St. Louis lottery king and
at present a wealthy resident of Al
hambra, in Justice Summerfleld's court
yesterday at his trial before a jury on
ii charge of disturbing the peace, pre
ferred against, him by his wife, Louisa
Brunner, when she testified regarding
the family quarrel which led to his
arrest.
The trouble which led to the issuance
of the complaint occurred at the pala
tial residence of the family at Alham
bra July 5, 1909, a few days after they
had separateed when Brunner returned
to the house for his raincoat. Accord
ing to the testimony. Mrs. ISrunner and
her daughter Theresa and her son
Fred were in the garden, and whrn
they caught sight of him they tied into
the house. Mrs. Hrunner told him that
his overcoat was not there, whereupon
lie tried to force his way into the
house. The witness stated that with
the aid of her daughter and son they
finally closed the door and left the de
fendant on the stoop.
Father Accuses Daughter
"Open the door a little and let me
get a kick at him!" Theresa is accused
by her father of saying. It was when
iirs. nrunner was nsked whether her
daughter said this and replied in the
negative that nrunner made his accu
sations.
Brunner strove to show that his wife,
daughter and son, after exacting $17!>.
--000 from him and brought abmit two
attacks of paralysis which he alleged
were due to beatings which he had re
ceived at their hands they had barred
him from his own house. "What made
me mad was to be thrown from my
own home which I paid $40,000 for,"
Irstified Brunner.
Mrs. Brunner claims that after re
fusing him admission to their home he
lifted his cane and broke two glass
panels in the kitchen door and that he
Bwore violently, after which he left.

PUSH TUNNEL PLAN
BY OUSTING BOGEY
Inspector Humphreys of Public Works
Unfolds Method of Overcoming
Franchise Difficulty in Hill
Street Tube Proposition
W. M. Humphreys, Inspector for the hoard
of public works, submitted his report yester
day relative to the proposed new tunnel under
the hill from First and Broadway to Fremont
avenue, outlining a plan by which it Is hoped
the city may overcome the present objec
tions to the. tunnel.
These objections have arisen from the fact
that the city cannot give a franchise for a
lonper period than twenty-one years, and the
railway companies are unwilling to undertake
their half of the work unless th.-y can have
a knger franchise.
The tunnel Is demanded by the residents
living west and north of the hill, beyond Fre
mont avenue.
Mr. Humphreys' plan. as submitted yester
day, Includes, first, the suggestion that the
board of public worlts ascertain If the rail
way companies consider it desirable to obtain
a tunnel right of way for their cars to run
through the proposed bore. In the event that
thty desire to operate cars through the tun
nel nnii are willing to pay their half of the
oort, Mr. Humphreys believe! arrangement*
can be made at the expiration of the 21-year
franchises to compensate the railroad com
panies. He Fays:
"At the two approaches to the proposed tun
nel there are two different railroad compan
ies, Will the railroad companies co-operate in
this matter and make such changes In their
rights of way as would make the building of
the tunnel possible?
"If the foregoing matters can be disposed
of satisfactorily, ascertain If either railroad
company would build its half of the tunnel
under a 51-year franchise with the understand-
ing that if at the end of the 21-year fran
chise the said franchise was not renewed for
an additional period of twenty-one years, then
the city of Los Angules should pay to the
railroad company that constructed said tunnel
one-half of Its original cost.
"Should the Loa Angeles Railway company
conclude to build the tunnol, It would leave
a portion nf the hill section without railroad
service. This couM be provided for In Beveral
ways, one of which being a railroad similar
to the Anßels Flight up Second street, which
would terminate on the west at Hope street.
"If the railroad companies do not care to
consider this proposition, the city can work
out this scheme Independently and can con
struct a tunnel the same as the Third street
tunnel, but It would seem desirable to have
the co-operation of the railroad compunles If
tha same can be bad."

TREASURE TRUNK
MYSTERY GROWS
STARTLING RUMORS CIRCU
LATED IN FINK CASE
VALUABLES TRACED TO SAN
FRANCISCO HOTEL
Defendants, Charged with Making
False Demand on Insurance Com.
pany, Establish Alibi and
Are Discharged
The mystery surrounding the disap
pearance of a trunk containing dia
monds and jewelry valued at $10,800
and belonging to Albert Fink, a Jew
eler. December 30. while it was being
■hipped to Ban Francisco and the
charge against Fink and his wife, Julia
Fink, of making a false demand ftgaiMt
the Hartford Insurance company for
$4000 for the loss of the jewelry, still
prows deeper and farther from a solu
tion than ever.
With the dismissal of the charge '
apainst Mr. and Mrs. Fink by Justice
Summerfield yesterday, startling rum
ors were circulated concerning a man
and woman who boarded the sumo
train 113 Harry Adams, the traveling
salesman for San Fraticlsco on the
morning of December 30 at Alhambra.
It is declared that they are friends
of Adams and that they went to the
same hotel in San Francisco as he did.
After being in San Francisco a few
hours it is laid they moved to the Gol
den 'West hotel, where it is alleged the
exchange of the trunk containing the
Jewelry for a suit case took place.
Movements of Trunk
It is alleged by the prosecution that
Mrs. Fink went to San Francisco De
cember 30 for the sole purpose of ob
taining possession of the trunk and
emptying its contents and that she did
this at the Golden West hotel. Two
witnesses for the prosecution testified
they saw and talked with her that day.
The porter and baggageman of the ho
tel stated they handled the trunk for
her. The baggageman testified at the
preliminary hearing that he hauled the
trunk to the depot and that she
checked it for Ran Jose. The trunk
was found then 1 two weeks later by
tracers sent out by the Southern Pa
citir company.
An alibi was established by the de
fense when they introduced sixteen
witnesses who testified they either saw
or talked with Mrs. Fink In Los An
geles on that date. The hotel register
of the GoMen West hotel was intro
duced in evidence showing a signature
supposed to have been Mrs. Fink's.
The name was Frau Etta Schulz.
Attorneys Hold Conference
Attorneys for Fink and wife con
ferred with Deputy District Attorney
Blair yesterday and although no infor
mation was given out, It Is thought
they furnished valuable information as
to the identity of the couple that
boarded the train at Alhambra.
If the two can be found and enough
evidence to satisfy the district attor
ney's office of the innocence of Fink
and his wife the hearing of the charge
preferred against them by the South
ern Pacific company, set for April 10,
will be dismissed.

Women's Secrets Jjl

the secrets of suffering, and they have been confided to Dr. *-'/MPk&.
X V Pierce in the hope and expectation of advice and help. *MSe!£3Bs&l
That few of these women have been disappointed in their ex- g|St|tpßlff

all women treated by Dr. Pierce have been absolutely and » gSK
altogether cured. Such a record would be remarkable if the K# ■■ m
cases treated were numbered by hundreds only. But when VJ V '
that record applies to the treatment of more than half-a- mil- f.▼

and entitles Dr. Pierce to the gratitude accorded him by women, as the first ot
