PRETTY TEACHER HOLDS
OUT AGAINST ALL FOES
Defeated Oroville Board
Calls for Help *. of
State Official
HAS ONLY ONE PUPIL
Miss Wenig Claims She Was
Employed for Term and
Means to. Work
Special by Leased Wire to The Call.
OROVIIX.B, Aug. 13.— Not in the^n
nals of the public school Bystem of Cal
ifornia Is there a case similar to that
of Miss Irene Wenlgr, the pretty school
teacher who has been holding: the little
rustic schoolhouse at Kanaka Peak,
in this county, against the orders of the
school board of the district, the county^
school superintendent, Mrs. Minnie
Abrams, the county board of education
and District Attorney Llnd Bond. Now
Edward Hyatt, who presides over the
school system of the entire state, has
been asked to oust Miss "Wenig:, who is
teaching a school which has but one
pupil, and Hyatt's . action is eagerly
awaited.
Miss Wenig taught the school last
winter and she avers that she orally
contracted with two members of the
board to teach for another term. When
it came to the formal selection of a
teacher two of the three members of
the board balked %nd refused to employ
Miss Wenig.
Nothing daunted she claimed that she
had been employed and for a month
has «rheld the fort in spite of the
entire battery of the school system of
the county. Her case is. attracting the
attention of the school authorities and
educational bodies all over northern
California and State Superintendent
Hyatt's action will be watched with
wide interest. ;
BRIBERY DENOUNCED AT
EPISCOPAL GATHERING
Resolutions Opposing It
Unanimously Passed
Last Night
"Whereas, our government is Imper
iled by the criminal use of wealth to
influence legislation; and whereas, ex
isting conditions In San Francisco pre
sent a moral issue; therefore be it
"Resolved, that in the Judgment of
this convocation bribery is always a
crime deserving of •punishment; and,
furthermore, that duty commands
every Christian man to exert himself
to "foster" a public recognition of the
gravity of the crime."
The Episcopal church as^ represented
by the diocese of California last even
ing went on record as squarely op
posed to the Insidious Influence of the
bribe giver. The r resolution quoted
was passed without a dissenting voice
by the convocation of San Francisco,
composed of the clergymen and one or
more delegates from each of the
churches around the bay, which met in
the parish house of St. Stephen's
church in Fulton street. Bishop Nich
ols was present at the convocation.
The resolution was. Introduced by
Rev. Cecil Marrack, rector of St.
Stephen's church, and seconded "by
Rev. E. L. Parsons of St. Mark's
church, Berkeley.
The Episcopal church yesterday de
clared that bribery is always a crime
deserving punishment. Not satisfied
with the passive acceptance of this
obvious truth, the church went further
and declared it the duty of every
Christian to make an active effort to
open the eyes of the public to the se
riousness of the crime.
Rev. Cecil Marrack In an interview
declared that the resolution was called
forth. by the. laxity of public sentiment
on this subject. Even In the church,
he said, it seemed to be hanging in the
balance. His object was to make the
church draw a clear line between right
and wrong.
PRESIDENT CONFERS
WITH TAFT AND ROOT
No Concern Felt for. the
Financial Condition
of Country
Special by Leased Wire to the Call.
NEW YORK, Aug. 13.— William H.
Taft, secretary ot war, on his return
tonight from the conference at Oyster
Bay with President Roosevelt, an
nounced that in spite of expectation
by Wall street there was no discussion
whatever of the financial situation. He
acknowledged that politics was dis
cussed, not only locally, but nationally,
but refused 'to say in what' regard.
With Secretary Taft was Postmaster
General Meyer.
The conference today of Secretary
Taft, Secretary Root and President
Roosevelt was looked 'upon as a pos
sible opportunity for the conservative
element in the cabinet to suggest to
the president that the attack on corpo
rations was doing more harm than
good, and that unless a letup was or
dered harm would result to business.
"You are not worried about the
situation in this state, are you?.'ils
the president worried about it?" were
questions asked almost simultaneously.
"The' president is " not worried about
the situation. in this state. If he was
he didn't say so," was the response to
both questions. Taft was asked if he
would tell about the particular, politi
cal situations that had been discussed.
"I can't, boys, you know that. And
you didn't expect me to, did you
really?" ll

Over Phone to Have Her
Come to Office
Dr. Frank . Thomas was suspended
for one year from .the , San Francisco
County : .": Medical > . association by ;. Its
ethics committee last night as the re
sult of a* charge' of unprofessional con
duct preferred ' against him by Drl
Dudley Talt, a" fellow, member. 1 . Tho
offense . for ' which .'- Dr. Thomas was
disciplined was committed two weeks
ago.. Dr. Talt charged that Dr. Thomas
had r telephoned * to . a young girl em
ployed In . tho telephone 1 company's of
fices .to . come • to ". his \u25a0 office to see her
mother, who • had been stricken with
ptomaine poisoning. Investigation
showed that g tho girl's ; mother had
never- been treated by. Dr. Thomas and
that the girl had apparently been sum
moned there for another -purposed" .
Dr. Thomas was/ summoned before
the -ethics committee last : , : - night in
Franklin hall and asked for an ex
planation. He" refused >to answer the
accusations and by^an almost unani
mous vote was suspended.. -' •- -
Although Dr. Thomas refused to
make \u25a0 a statement before the . commit
tee he talked freely with his friends
about the charge. The girl was his pa
tient, he said, and was employed by
the telephone company as an operator.
She found considerable difficulty In
getting away during working hours to
visit his office. He said that her em
ployers listened on the wire when \ a
personal call came » in for her £.nd that
he had mentioned her mother's name
to facilitate her getting away.
Dr. Thomas is a well known 1 practi
tioner in this city. His humiliation at
the hands of his fellow physicians came
as a surprise. He announced his Inten
tion last night of carrying the matter
Into the courts.
