Attorney Leon Samuels, who has
been representing Dr. Brackett, called
on the Mayor b>* appointment yester
day morning and went over the evi
dence taken on Friday. The confer
ence was executive and at its close
Mayor Schmitz announced that he
would submit the result of his Investi
gation to the Board of Health to-day.
The argument presented by Samuels
was along the line of unreliability of
Fleishhacker's evidence and also that
Dr. Brackett had not broken any rule
of the hospital when he demanded and
accepted the fee of $5 from Fleish
hacker, as the rule had not been pro
mulgated by the Board of Health at
that time. Another point upon which
the attorney laid considerable stress
was the discrepancy in the matter of
time. His contention was backed by
the evidence "of Dr. Brackett, Dr.
Howe and Mrs. Brackett that the con
versation regarding Ames' condition
was held over, the phone on Saturday,
while Flieshhacker swore it was Sun
day. Taking that as a basis. Attorney
Samuels contended that Fleishhacker's
testimony was unreliable throughout.
President Ward of the Board of
Health and Dr. Brackett jointly held
a conference with Mayor Schmitz, but
at its conclusion neither would state
the object or result.
The general supposition 'around the
City Hall Is that Dr. Brackett will be
removed and Dr. 1/ J. Stephen ap
pointed in his placer When Attorney
Samuels was asked what course Dr.
Brackett would pursue if he were re
moved, he said: f
"If Dr. . Brackett Is removed on this
charge it -will be unjust and he will at
once take steps to vindicate : himself.
In the first place, I do' not think he
will be removed, but if he Is suit for
libel will be instituted against Coroner
L'eland and Mortimer Fleishhacker.
The result of. the report on the inquest
, Emergency Hospital Surgeon Brack
ett still occupies his position and the
investigation by Mayor Schmitz of the
charge's against . him will be | referred
to the Board of Health by the Mayor
to-day. Just what the chief executive
will recommend to the board, his Hon
or declined to sav beyond that his. in
tention is to submit a written state
ment of his findings.
shows malice, for the verdict did not
even jrive the cause of death, but was
directed at Dr. Brackett .without any
legitimate cause."

Evaline ; B. Mills was granted a di
vorce from E. T. B. Mills, secretary of
Nevill & Co., the bag manufacturers,
yesterday by Judge Seawell on the
ground of cruelty. Her charge was
based on the fact that her husband
spent too much time in the company of
a woman who lives at 2508 Clay street.
A feature of the case was the appear
ance of the defendant's two brothers,
W. L. B. Mills and F. G. B. Mills, as
witnesses against him. They both tes
tified that his conduct was displeasing
to them and that they had frequently
spoken to him and asked him to mend
his ways, but without avail. . He con
tinued to appear in public with the
woman and neglected his wife and two
children. C. A. Sweet of Goldberg,
Bowen & Co.' testified that he had fre
quently sent groceries ordered by Mills
to the Clay street house. Charles B.
Stone was also a witness, his testimony
being the same as that of the defend
ant's brothers.
Judge Hebbard yesterday granted a
decree of divorce to Walter S. Bon
bright from Sarah E. Bonbright for
cruelty. The suit^when it first came
up last November was '.contested by
Mrs. Bonbright, but when it came up
for hearing yesterday she did not ap
pear.
Decrees of divorce were granted to
Maria D. Roberts from Henry M. Rob
erts for neglect, and George L. Zim
merman from Cora Zimmerman for de
sertion.
Suits for divorce were filed by Jennie
Stanley against William Stanley for
neglect, Etta Lulu Kimmis against
Bruce D. Kimmis of 201 Turk street
for cruelty, she alleging that though
she is a cripple and compelled to use
crutches he frequently abuses her;
Mary O'Doherty against Michael
O'Doherty, a lottery ticket peddler, for
cruelty; Henrietta Burns against Rob
ert K. Burns for cruelty, and Frederick
Groth against Martha Groth for cru
elty. Mrs. Groth charges that his wife
amuses herself by throwing plates at
him and by attempting to stab him
with knives and forks. Complaints were
also filed by Levinia McKay against T.
C. McKay for cruelty and W. M. Tay
lor against May Taylor for desertion.
A warrant was issued by Police
Judge Fritz yesterday .for the arrest
of Dr. Kimmis on a charge of battery.
He is accused of unmercifully beating
his wife, Etta, on Friday night, .and
she is now at the home of . her
mother, 865 Geary street.

GIVES HUSBAND- DECREE.
The MacDonalds,. AlexandeV and Jo
sephine, a youthful pair, who but a
short time ago became husband and
wife, aired their troubles in Judge
Sloss' court yesterday. MacDonald Is
suing his wife for divorce on the
ground of cruelty, alleging that she
hurt his feelings by making written
charges against him to the members
of Hesperian Parlor, Native Sons of the
Golden West, in which she said he was
a drunkard and many other uninviting
things. She Is opposing his 'suit, and in
a cross-complaint repeats the charges
she filed with the organization. 'Judge
Sloss took the case for deliberation.
Mrs. MacDonald was represented by
Attorney Stephen Costello.
Joseph N. Kowalsky, the merchant,
who is being sued for divorce' by Etta
Kowalsky, in an affidavit filed yester

mony, pending, the suit on the ground

Tony J. Flores of 23 Turk street was
Police Officer Ogden was In plain at
tire when he induced Ruby Arlington
to sell him an alcoholic beverage and
then arrested her for doing so without
a license.
"I think this case ls a shame," said
Miss Arlington to Judge Mogan, ' "and
I'll tell you why: This man goes to
work and comes to my room at 109 Tay
lor street, and when he goes to work
and raps at the door -I goes to work
and lets him in- Then he goes to work
and asks me to sell him a drink, and
when I goes to work and gets him one
he goes to work and flashes his star,
and then goes to work and arrests me.
Then I goes "
"To work," was the judicial Interrup
tion, "and corroborates the story he
has Just told— that you sold liquor^
without having a license to do so."
\ Miss Arlington then went to work
and asked for a continuance, and the
court went to work and granted it, set
ting May 2 as the date of the next
hearing.
"More craps and 'scraps' than hops,
eh?" facetiously remarked Judge Mo
t»an. '£•''"¦
"And more tin-horn sports than act
ors," added the officer.
W. B. Horn and Edward Saita were
fined $5 apiece for playing craps Satur
day night in the Mechanics' Pavilion
while a social event, which had been
extensively advertised as "the actors'
ball," was in progress. According to
the statement of the defendants Terp
sichore was shamefully neglected by
the participants In the revel, who
seemed to prefer gaming or fighting to
tripping the light fantastic. No less
than fifteen crap games were simulta
neously in full swing In as many differ
ent parts of the big building, Mr. Horn
said, and Mr. Saita estimated the num
ber of pugilistic encounters during the
evening at twenty- Policeman Kracke,
who made the arrests, also said the
amusements were varied.
A sympathetic murmur arose from
the chair-warmers in Judge Mogan's
court, and every eye gazed commis
seratingly upon James B. McDonald as
he told of his frightful experience with
a telephone in a saloon at Ninth and
Market streets last Sunday morning —
an exr>erience that attained a climax
by the frenzied man plucking the in
strument of torture from the wall and
dashing it upon the floor.
He desired to communicate imme
diately with a dear friend, Mr. McDon
ald said, and after spending an un
necessarily long time in arousing cen
tral he was at last responded to and
informed that the line was busy; then
that his party failed to answer; then
that he hadn't dropped his nickel; then
that he was connected with the num
ber he had called for, whereas he had
requested to be connected with one en
tirely different. So it went until his
reason fled and he smashed the box.
As he concluded his narrative the sym
pathy of his audience on both sides of
the rail was so apparent that Judge
Mogan, with bowed head, hastily con?
tinued the case till next Friday.
"We have all been there before,
many's the time, many's the time,"
chanted the bailiff as he tenderly es
corted/ Mr. McDonald to the softest
spot on the defendants' bench.
"This cgfart has no leniency for any
one convicted of the offense proved
against your client," said the Judge,
in response to a plea for clemency from
Strong's attorney. "The person that
acts in a rowdyish manner where there
are peaceable people — on a street car
or in a theater, ftrr instance — need not
look for merciful treatment from me.
The fact that your client is an intelli
gent man makes his offense all the
more reprehensible. The women are
dismissed because they did not start
the disorder, but naturally took the
!«jde of their escort. Indeed, he is re
spcm^ible for the unenviable notoriety
which has been brought upon them."
Two hundred dollars was the total
fine imposed by Judge Mogan upon
Dentist T. E. Strong, who terrorized
the passengers on a McAllister-street
car on Sunday evening. April 17, by
brandishing a pistal and threatening
to shoot Conductor Casey. His wife
and Miss Anna Boline, who were ar
rested with Strong and charged with
disturbing the peace, got off with a
reprimand.
By promising to marry Nicolas k on
October 12, 1904, Lillian, who has a hus
band and children, induced him to es
tablish her as proprietress of a Bar
bary Coast saloon, and the investment
cost him $1100, the sum total of his
savings from a meager salary as butler.
After she got possession of the prop
erty the woman gave him the cold
shoulder, jauntily informing him he
had been a fool and that he would
brtter stay away from the saloon, as
his "presence there interfered with her
business erf fascinating other suscepti
ble idiots with money."
But the little man has not relin
quished hope of recovering at least a
portion of his wealth and punishing
the betrayer of his confidence. He has
sworn to two amended complaints al
lecing fraud, and also intends to in
stitute civil proceedings. One of the
reasons why his original complaint col
lapsed consisted in the Tact that the
woman has not yet failed to fulfill her
promise to marry him on the 12th day
of next October, although that she
never did and docs not now intend to
do so is apparent, even if there were
not a husband In the way.
Nicolas von Ruben's weazened coun
tenance underwent weird convulsion
and his diminutive form visibly shrank
as he listened to Judge Fritz explain
that because of defects In the com
plaint Lillian Baker, Tamed as "the
Queen of Pacific street," could not le
gally be held on the charge of obtain
ing money by false pretense from the
meek little Swiss whom she had eo
unscrupulously cozened out of about
51100. And as the meaning of the words
from the bench were conveyed to the
woman's understanding by her attor
ney she leered triumphantly at Nicolas
and then laughed until her billowy
cheeks and Bides shook. »
For stealing a shotgun and 6ome
trinkets from the room of Police Officer
Edwards at 116 Leidersdorff street,
Frank Williams was before Judge
Mogan and had his case continued till
Thursday next. A man who occupied
an adjoining apartment caught Frank
emerging from the policeman's cham
ber with the plunder and auietly fol
lowed him until he had opportunity to
give him into custody. Williams de
clined to inform Judge Mogan whether
he knew he was robbinQa policeman.
"William Ryan and John McDonald,
teamsters by occupation and both ap
pearing to have passed man's allotted
three score and ten, mumbled the story
of their trouble to Judge Fritz. John
was the complainant and battery the
charge. William testified that John
had asked him for $5 and that he had
responded by declaring that he had
other uses for his hard-earned money
than squandering it upon John, who,
thereupon, called him a "blind old
miser," which he had resented by "biff-
Ing" John.
"You bovs ought to be ashamed of
yourselves," said the Judge, and then
he dismissed the case.
"I'll bet that your spring suit will be
a back number by the time you get
out of this scfape," Bailiff Hickey
whispered to the defendant.
The wager was not booked.
The maximum penalty for vagrancy
will probably be handed down to B.
Ma.suda when he appears before Judge
Mogan to-day for sentence. He looked
as if he had just stepped out of a
tailor's spring fashion plate when he
faced the bench, and when a policeman
and several other witnesses had testi
fied that he lived by levying blackmail
on Japanese women of the underworld
he was not in the least ruffled bv the
disclosure.
Manuel Lucero, marine fireman, af
fected inability to speak English when
Judge Mogan asked him to explain
why he had been arrested for using
profane language at 8:30 a. m. last
Sunday on Broadway and shocking
folk who passed him on their way to
church. The policemen who arrested
him testified that Manuel had blas
phemed in English with a fluency that
denoted thorough acquaintance with
the language, but not one word of it
would he utter in court. Through an
interpreter, however, he pleaded that
he had lost his hat and was provoked
to profanity by failure to recover it.
"Well, Manuel," said the Judge, "I
will sentence you to-morrow, and now
advise you to have ready all the money
you can scrape up, as your fine will
be no light one. Church-going people
must be protected from hearing such
language as this policeman heard you
indulge in."
Manuel's face reflected perfect knowl
edge of what the Judge said to him.
"Olaf Hansen!" shouted Bailiff
Hickey, and "Oh, Laugh Hansen and
the world laughs with you" immedi
ately added Clerk Grey.
But there were no visible evidences
of laughter possessing the soul of
Mr. Hansen as he heard himself for
mally accused of grand larceny by
William O'Keefe, able seaman, who
testified that he was robbed of his
open-faced silver watch, his nine-year
old briar pipe and a leathern purse
while he dallied with the defendant in
the Spanking Breeze saloon.
Judpe Mogan continued the case till
next Thursday, when Olaf will either
attempt an alibi or deluge the tri
bunal with "character testimony."
Mrs. J. W. Gillman. chiropodist, ap
peared in Mogan's court as complain
ant against James Quinn, who fell
upon a glass case containing a plaster
of paris mold of a human foot beau
tifully embellished with corns, bun
ions and distorted toe joints. She
opined that Mr. Quinn was either stu
pidly drunk or maliciously i mischiev
ous when he staggered against her
treasure as it invited public inspection
in front of her establishment on Mar
ket street. Mr. Quinn said the wind
blew him against the showcase, but
the policeman who found him wan
dering with his hair full of shattered
glass and plaster had no doubt of his
inebriety. The Judge, after ascertain
ing that the showcase alone was worth
$25, ordered Mr. QuJnn to pay that
sum to Mrs. Gillman, who expressed
willingness to overlook the intrinsic
value of the foot.
""Hay maight un' hay maight not
hav* robbed may, "Yudge," said Xels.
alluding to Mr. Killeen. "Ay loast
yust eight dolars un' ay was droonk."
Xels Andersen, intoxicated, inform
ed Patrolmen Brown and Xolan that
he had been robbed of $8 by Tim Kil
leen in a water front saloon, and the
officers took his unsupported word for
it and arrested the accused. Ander
sen sober, however, declined to press
the charpe made by Andersen drunk,
and Judge Mogan was obliged to dis
miss the case after he had advised the
policemen to exercise more discretion
in believing the statements of an in
ebriate. ",
"San Francisco's gain will be Can
ton's loss," said his Honor Judge Mo
gran as he dismissed Get Fon, famed
-^s "the star bum of Chinatown?" Get
was arrested for vagrancy, and when
one of his innumerable cousins prom
ised to have him deported to Canton
the court let him go.
also deceived by a policeman in plain
attire, to whom he sold a quart bottle
of beer. He pleaded that he had a
Federal license and did not think a
municipal permit essential to the law
ful selling: of intoxicants, and Judge
Mogran dismissed the case.

¦¦¦* Miss Alice Bailey, ol
Atlanta, Ga., escaped the sur-
. peon's knife, by using Lydia E
Pinkhani's Vegetable Compound.
"Deab Mbs. Pixkha.m: — I wish to
* *>rpress my gratitude for the restored
health and'happiness I^ydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound has
brought into my life.
" I had suffered for three years with
terrible pains at the time of menRtnia-
t ion. and did not know what the trouble
*-as until the doctor pronounced it in-
flammation of the ovaries, and
proposed an operation.
" I felt so weak and 6ick that I felt
. sure that I could not survive the ordeal,
and so I told him that I would not un-
dergo it. The following 1 week I read
en advertisement in the paper of your
Vegetable Compound in such an emer-
gency, and so I decided to try it. Great
was my joy to find that' I actually im-
proved after taking two bottles, so I
kept taking it for ten weeks, and at the
end of that time I was cured. I had
gained eighteen pounds and was in
excellent health, and am now.
" You surely deserve preat success,
sind 3*nu have my very best wishes." —
