Judge GrBhBm"s dictum In each in- Fttnce was based upon his judicial knowledge of past matters, one^ of which was the divorce case of McCann nsralnst his wife, in which O'Brien, president of the discredited humane so riety. appeared as attorney for the hus band. The wife won that £ase and as basis for the present proceedings she vas dragged out of bed. arrested by Waclham. taken to jail on a charge of drunkenness and later discharged. Neighbors testified In her behalf and letters were written to the court by a butcher, a. physician and nearby resi dents to prove that the wife and mother was guiltless of bad habtts or wrong doing. Before the court awarded the custody of the children to the mother she de clared that In spite of his misbehavior the would forgive her husband "for the sake of the. children." Her forgiveness appealed to Judge Graham's famous attitude as a m«ii ator in domestic troubles, but he did not retract his strictures passed upon O'Brien.

MOONEY TO SUSTAIN LAW DEFIES THE MAYOR Police Captain Swears to Warrants Against Saloon Men Captain of Police John Moon«T de clared open war on the administration as represented by Mayor Schmitz yes terday and swore to warrants calling for the arrest of the proprietors of about fifteen saloons which have been violating the law under municipal pro . tection since the earthquake. Captain' - Mooney declares that all saloon men who are violating the law -will be ar rested as long as the law continues to stand. The offense for which the saloon men ..ere. to be arrested is violation of an or dinance providing that certain restric tions shall be placed upon the structural plans of so-called back rooms. In no case, according to Mooney. has .this law been observed. All the saloons affected by Mooney's new edict are located In th« Western . Addition, and not a, saloon in that dls • trict where women of ajiy type trhat soAver are to be found was spared. Following the disposal of the case/ of the different saloon keepers in the . criminal courts, Mooney 'will cause his men to file complaints against the sa loons with the Police Commission to secure the revocation of their licenses.

Salisbury, son of Monroe Salisbury, died and gave no word of explanation concerning hlsd«»f perate act of suicide. So carefully had he planned hie death in the Kadee Hammam beths. at 1303 Gough street, that th* fump* of gas he Inhaled through the rubber tube attached to the open jet did their work, and medical skill could not avail in the fight to keep back the spread of the fluid poi son. He died while his sister. Mrs. Keyes. and her husband and * physi cian stood silent at the bedside, the trio being powerless to stay death's hand. It is not believed probable that the mystery of his suicide will ever be cleared. Many things conspired to ren der his melancholy temperament more depressed. His father, to whom he was attached with even more than a son's love, had but recently left this city, never to return. An incurable victim of a cancerous growth. Monroe Salis bury, well-known turfman, bade his son good-by several weeks ago and then Journeyed to Utah, where he made his last visit to his brother, O. J. Salis bury, a Salt Lake City millionaire. From Salt Lake Salisbury, the elder, went to New York to seek some relief from the pangs of his fatal malady. He is now in that city with his daugh ter, T. P. Boardman. This fact undoubtedly, say Sidney Salisbury's friends, was one of the causes of his melancholia. The effort to attach a romantic sig nificance to the suicide is not upheld by the dead man's relatives, who say that no serious affair of the heart had caused him mental or nervous unrest. The names of many young women, some in the exclusive circles of fash ionable society and some not, were mentioned yesterday, but no one was shown to hsve been the particular ob ject of Salisbury's attentions, and the romantic element was not apparent in the last days of his life. That he had been drinking is certain, and also that he was depressed and unhappy when he applied at the Hammam baths for treatment, but no single reason has been suggested and accepted by his be reaved relatives and friends to explain the suicide of the popular young man of society with a wide circle of friends. The funeral •will be held today at 2 o'clock from the residence of his sister, Mrs. A. D. Keyes. 2619 Devisadero street. EIGHT-DAY SERVICES '%s\u25a0\u25a0 OF PASSOVER BEGUN Feast of Unleavened Bread Held in Memory of Israelites* Escape Out of Egypt The celebration of the Hebrew Pass over began at sundown yesterday and will last for eight days, culminating: on the great Sabbath next Saturday.

The unleavened bread is eaten in accordance with the old custom of the Jews on that occasion.

PATROLMEN PLAN UNION TO DEMAND BETTER PAY Exclusion of Office Men and Detectives Will Cause Trouble Tb* patrolmen of the San Francisco Police Department are to have a union, and it is to-^be exclusive. The detec tives under Captain Colby want to join; so does the Chief of, Police, and so do lieutenants and captains; but they cannot. :^:-'- ; ; "We are, going to run this ourselves," say the men behind the clubs, "and we will take care of our own interests." The meeting at which organization is to be taken up will be held next Tuesday afternoon at police headquar ters. Some time ago a I*o per cent increase in, salaries was demanded by the patrolmen because of the advanced cost of living. Many of the captains announced that if they and other up per office men were excluded by the patrolmen trouble would result, and that the claims of the ' patrolmen ! would, be blocked. FIREMAN'S FUND COMES INTO GREAT BUSINESS Subsidiary Corp>oratioa Turns Over All Agencies and Policies to Parent Company The Fireman's Fund Insurance Com pany Is about to come into the posses sion of $4«2.000,000 in business from thai Firemen's Fund Insurance Corporation, which will be good news for those who took 50 per cent of their claims for fire losses in stock of the Fireman's Fund Insurance Company. The Firemen's Fund Corporation will cease to do busi ness on and after today. Monday the parent' organisation, the Fireman's Fund Insurance Company, will have all the affairs In its own hands. The change brings to an end one of the most interesting chapters of fire in surance history in the United fitates.

The original agreement "was that the policy-holders were to receive practically Ro,,t>er cent of the n*t;as nets of the company, the; stockholders retaining, the balance. Recent advices from Hamburg are that the policy holders accepting the agreement nego tiated by their representatives ' may finally receive more, than 40 per cent. •' the ; ? siS;:MlN<jiscplt}M^ Rush of Photographs of the State's Beautiful Women Los Angeles Sends Its Quota Note This— v In The Sunday Call Tomorrow: / f Two Full Pages of Beautiful California Women The Story of the Great English Beauty Contest Since It has been announced that The Sunday Call's beauty contest will close April 21 there has been a rush of photos sent to be entered.

As the contest draws toward the end photos of beau tiful women from various portions of the State will be segregated and en tered according to their city or coun ty. The rivalry be tween the cities and counties has become so great as practically to de mand this. The newspapers throughout the State 'are now tak-' ing a very active, beauty contest They also have contestants to enter. The quest has taken ou the excitement of a game, and ; the keen . rivalry between various cections of the State is productive of many beautiful photo graphs. Each day the city that is ahead in the number of beau tilul photographs sent in to the beauty contest changes. San Francisco. San Jose, Stockton and Sacramento were well in the lead until yesterday, when Los Angeles was productive of an unusual number of photographs, which places it in rank along with the others.. *\u25a0 Judging by comparison with the . photos ; of beautiful women entered- in the beauty contest now being carried on- in all parts of the East, California .will be so far ahead that there* will, be. no doubt at all of its winning the national beauty contest. That means. that the most beautiful woman in California will be chosen as the most beautiful won^an in America.; Even though The Sunday Call has received photos of many^ beautiful women, there is always the chance that the most beautiful woman in -Cali fornia has not yet been found. The time is getting short now.- Do not delay in sending that photo. If the photographer is busy, tell hin> it is for The Sunday Call's great beauty contest, and he will hurry it.

Warci RESIGNATIONS READY Simon s Election as Presi dent the Cause of Jealousy Doctors Sidney Worth and W. H. Harvey are planning "to sever tnelr con nection with the Schmltz-Ruef ' Board of Health.and in all likelihood -their resignations will;'.be presented, to the Mayor before 'many, days have elapsed. In point of 'fact Worth has. his resig nation already prepared- and he, in tended to file it -with Schmitz either yeste.rday or today. The retirement of Dr. J. "U". Ward from the board marks the beginning of the breaking up of that body and the example set by Ward. who. 'as pres ident, at all times abjectly carried out the; orders of Schmitz and Ruef. will be followed by his, former ,colleagues. Harvey is the senior member of the board after Ward and his desire to re tire is the result of his failure to-be elected president "\u25a0\u25a0to", succeed Ward. Harvey felt; that he should have been selected to preside. over health affairs and was supremely disgusted when Dr. Simon" was slated for the~ place. Harvey expressed his disgust ' in rather violent terms to Simon himself and- threatened to file, his resignation then and. there. Simon, however, pre vailed upon Harvey to "wait awhile and he promised to do so with a view to giving Simon a half-hearted support in his administration of the Health De partmont. It Is said that Harvey regis tered a strong objection to the one-man power inaugurated :by Ward." and Har vey will remain on the board temporar-. ily with the understanding that he i_s to have some say in the Health Depart ment. Dr. Worth Is a warm friend -of Dr. Ward, they having graduated from the same school- of medicine. It wag at Ward's request Jthat Worth was% ap pointed a member of the Health Board and the latter thinks that ,he should accompany \u25a0 his friend to private life again. '.-, "Worth wanted to resign sev eral months ago, as he was 1 displeased with the disclosures affecting * ."the Schmitr administration. Ward, how ever, prevailed .^n "V\ r orth to hold on for a while. - Now that Ward has de serted the fast sinking ,Schmltz admin istration ship. Worth believes the time is ripe for him to follow suit. It is said that .Ward contemplates a trip to Europe, as he fears that.he'may be asked rather pertinent questions as to what he might know regarding cer tain Irregularities in the health depart-, ment. - , .It was. learned' upon good .authority thatv Ward, -would not ' be appointed a member of. the- State-Board "of Health," as previously reported. 'lt is not likely that Governor Gillett will attach any former member of the Schmftz adminis tration to an office .under his control. WILL PUT UP. BUILDING , AT A . •'COST .OF $130^)00 M. P.
