Afflicted with an incurable malady,
Thomas William Pratt, formerly a re

his life last Wednesday night by in

ago he sold out his business in Fresno

treatment for cancer of the mouth and
throat. The doctors failed to alleviate
bis sufferings and he told his wife on
Beveral occasions that he would kill
himself. At 6 o'clock yesterday morn
ing Mrs. Pratt went to his room at 1021
Laguna street for the purpose of
awakening him, and found him lying
dead in bed with the end of a rubber

NEW. YORK, Aug. 24.— Incensed by lack
of attention In a well-known uptown res
taurant last night, a man of athletic- mold,
who said he was Colonel Tazewell Ellett
of Richmond, Va.. gave battle to sev
eral waiters and caused a stampede of
diners to the street. Police who inter
fered were badly mauled by the colonel
and It required the joint efforts of five
bluecoats to land him in the station.
Just what started the fight .is not
known. The. unusual noise attracted a
large crowd around the doors and the
police had to force their way In. They
found the irate colonel chasing the
waiters In all directions. He was dragged
to the sidewalk, .and. on reaching Broad
way, he turned on his captors, knock-
Ing down four of them in quick succes
sion. Reserves were called and ,the pris
oner was soon overpowered by the rein
forcements. -;:-^ ;:_;•;-.: \u25a0-, .
August H. Gerstmann, grocer at 517
Polk street. Is a brave man. Poet Ten
nyson's fling at the shopkeeper does
not at' all apply to him, for August
stood a counterfefter and ex-convict at
bay at the muzzle of a revolver last
Wednesday night and held him a.pris
oner until a policeman came along; and
took the criminal away.
On the night mentioned Gerstmann
was alone in his store, when a stranger
came in and asked for $1 worth of
sugar. When the package was handed
him he passed to the grocer what pur
ported to be a %'Zd silver certificate.
Gerstmann. had seen that kind of a bill
before and recognized it as a $1 silver
certificate raised to one of $20 denom
ination by pasting in the figures and
tetters of the $20 designation of a
Confederate note. The grocer made no
remark, but took his revolver from be
hind the counter, walked between tha
stranger and the door, covered him
with the weapon and forced him Into
the back 'room. Then he summoned
Policeman C. F. Francis, who took the
stranger into custody.
United States Secret Service Agent
Thomas B. Foster identified the pris
oner as William Green (alias' William
Breen, alias Fred Wilson), a graduate
of the Whittier Reform School and an
ex-convlct. who had served a term of
six years' imprisonment In the peniten
tiary for burglary. He was placed in
custody of the United States Marshal.
"I am not guilty of this horrible mur
der," he said, "and now , I will have the
opportunity of proving myself Innocent
before, the highest court In the State.
I never felt that I would go to the gal
lows. I may be guilty of other crimes,
but never of, that of murder."
CHICAGO, Aus. 21.— Johann Hoch," the
man of. 'many wives, convicted of the
murder of one of them, and under sentence
of death, has escaped the gallows a third
time. He. was to have been hanged here
to-morrow, but a supersedeas •. was Issued
to-day on an order of Justice Magruder
of the Supreme Court. The Justice said
that" he had carefully examined the rec
ord presented by Hoch's attorneys and his
stirtly of it satisfied him there was enough
doubt to justify a review it the entire
case- by the Supreme Court. The case
will, come up at the October term of the
court at Springfield, 111.
\ Hocht has been -confident that the death
sentence would not be executed. He had
very little to say when informed of the
action- of the ' Justice. Jailor -Whitman
said-U was the tlrst time in his experi
ence'that a prisoner has exhibited no con
cern about his fate the day , previous : to
the execution. , Hoch was smoking a cigar
when told of the issuance of. the writ.

William Hogan created a scene in
Judge Lawlor's court yesterday when
he appeared for trial on a charge of
burglary. The case had been on the
calendar for trial for nearly a month,
the defendant obtaining continuances
from time to time on the pretext that
he did not have counsel. The Judge
Bald the case Ttould have to go to trial
and he appointed Attorney Hornblower
to represent the defendant.
Hogan stood up in the dock and in
a loud voice said: "I know my rights.
I don't want Hornblower and you're
not going to railroad me to jail. I
know my rights and I am going to
have them. I want my own attorney.''
The Judge told Bailiff Welch to take
Hogan out of the courtroom and con
tinued the case till 1* o'clock.
At - o'clock Attorney Hornblower
asked for a continuance till this morn-
Ing, as the defendant had Informed him
that his brother would reach the city
in the evening with money to pay for
an attorney of his own selection.
The Judge granted the continuance, j
but sai4 that the case would have to j
go to trial this morning. Hbgan apol- j
egized for his "discourteous words" in I
the morning, saying he was excited at
the time, but the Judge paid no at
tention to him. There are two prior
convictions against him for burglary.

AT ST. JOSEPH'S
ACTRESS WHO "WIL.L, APPEAR AT j
THE REOPENING OF THE CALI
FORNIA THEATER.
Resolved. That we, the" County Committee of
the ., Union Labor party of bun Francisco, do
hereby unanimously dfnounct "the false and
misleading* so-called final report of th 4 Grand
Jury as a political document framed for poli
tical purposes, with only political ends in view,
and so far as Mayor Sclimitz ia concerned filled
with lalsity and hypocrisy.' : • "
Rpsolved. That we unanimously endorse ths
administration of Mayor Schmltz and pledge
him the undivided support not only of this
County^ Committee, but of all wage workers of
San Francisco, and we * denounce the crooked
and despicable work of Foreman Andrews of
the Grand Jury and of his accomplices In and
out of the Grand Jury as betrayal of one of
the- most sacred - trusts known to American
civilization, by misusing for personal and poll-"
tlcal ends the powers of the Orand Jury.
" The Union Labor convention will meet
at' Lyric Hall next Wednesday evening.
On -the following evening the delegates
will assemble at Native- Sons' . Hall .on
Mason street \u25a0» and probably :cnominate
Mayor Schmltz. \u25a0 The* county 1 committee
of the party, Thomas F. Eagan chairman
and George J. Berger secretary, met last
night and adopted these resolutions:
The v giafters fully realize the 'fact that
a coalition of Republican and Demo
cratic forces in • this campaign for a re
demption of San Francisco will result in
the overthrow of the Ruef-Schmitz ad
ministration, hence It Is expected that
the grafters' alliance will promise any
thing and everything to prevent the
regular conventions of the two leading
political parties from putting in the field
a joint nominee for Mayor. '\u25a0 .'-\u25a0\u25a0-."_. '-\u25a0\u25a0-. "_
The League delegations controlling .the
Republican municipal convention are firm
and true. -There is not the slightest sign
of weakness or treachery in any delega
tion. When the- proper time arrives a
caucus of the majority will be called. In
the selection of a- nominee for Mayor
Ruef will not be consulted. In caucus the
nominee : will be indorstd. The list of.
available and acceptable V me^i for t the
Mayoralty Is quite extensive, embracing
&uch names as Fred Koster, , John C.
Kirkpatrick, Albert Castle, H. D. Love
land; Charles W. Slack,- W. G. Stafford,
K. J. Taussig, John Liickmanu, Daniel A.
Ryan, Harry Baehr and James v.McNab.
The Ruefters have failed in their efforts
to detach' delegates from* the column of
the San Francisco Republican . League
and are now working diligently -and
adroitly to prevent coalition of the Re
publican and Democratic forces. , There
Is said, to be convincing proof in the pos
session of the League that Ruef made an
offer of a West Point cadetship to a Re
publican delegate ' provided the latter
would' vote and work against th^ proposi
tion to coalesce with the Democrats., The
officers of the -League -did not setia trap
for Ruef, but when they received infor
mation that the boss was promising Fed
eral patronage to bolster up the cam
paign of graft they did; not advise.^"re
jection of his proposal, preferring that
the boss should' go' ahead and disclose
the' identity 'of the United States .Sena
tor or Representative 'in Congress who
had patronage to place in this kind of a
pool. It is claimed that Ruef offered to
show down and produce the man who
would deliver the cadetship.
•It is just possible that some member of
the California Congressional delegation
might have recognized , Ruef in days gone
by as a Republican and promised him a
cadetship, but in the light of current po
litical events in San Francisco the prom
ise. cannot be made good. Staunch Re
publicans of the California delegation
will closely watch all' tne recommenda
tions . for cadetships at, Annapolis and
West Point and eliminate Ruef deals.
TJie California Theater will reopen next
Sunday night under the management of
Manager Charles P. Hall, who controls
the syndicate theaters in Oakland, Stock
ton. Sacramento and other interior cities.
The season at the California is to be
devoted to the new "burlesque wheel,"
which Is to last for forty weeks.
The "burlesque wheel" is made up of
seventy-five companies, each one num
bering from thirty-five to sixty people,
and each company will travel all over
ihe United States, thus giving each the
ater on the circuit a new company and
play each week of the entire season.
The burlesquers will be seen In an
up-to-date conception entitled "A Mar
ried Bachelor," which will be gorgeously
costumed and equipped.
Among the prominent features of the
programme will be Yvette, the sensa
tional electrical dancer and physical cul
ture poseur, who created a furore in
Paris this spring. The Kellar Zouave
girls from London will be seen in a
lightning gun drill and evolutions and
daring high-wall climbing, which was the
hit In London last winter. The Mound
City Quartet ranks as one of the best
on the "«tage and will be heard with the
company. J. Gaffney Brown Is . al*o to
be seen In his novel digital manipula
tions, known as "Watch the Cigarette."
Prominent In the company are John A.
Boone, May Booth. Charlotte Ivar, Edna
Bruce. May Spencer and other artists.
The Board of "Education at j its weekly
