MOONEY GIVEN CHANCE
AND MAY REGAIN STAR
BEFORE END OF WEEK
Police Captain Deposed by
Schmitz Board Asks .
Review of Case
DISCUSS NEW CHIEF
Dark Horse Is Expected to
Win Favor of New
Commissioners
John Mooney, who was removed from
his position as police captain by the-
Srbmitz board in its last desperate
days, may be reinstated by the new
commission if it is shown that the re
moval was the result of revenge in
the face of insufficient evidence to con
vict Mooney of the charge of insubor
dination. Theodore Roche, attorney
for Mooney. will appear before Presi
dent Charles A. Sweigert and the board
this afternoon and ask that a review
be*«ranted. In all probability the new
board will grant the request.
The transcript of testimony taken
at the Investigation will be offered the
commission. This will be reviewed by
the board and at the meeting Thurs
day a ruling In the case will be made.
If the new commission deems that
the evidence on which Jlooney was de
prived of his star was' lnsufficient and
that he was declared guilty of insu
hordlnation through motives of re
venge on the part of the old com
missioners the police board \u25a0will adopt 1
a resolution instructing the city attor
ney to have the judgment annulled.
Superior Judge Seawell has under
consideration a petition for a writ of
review. If he should deny, the request
before the police board can act Mooney
will have no ground for expecting a
review from the board, but should the
superior court delay its action Mooney
will have a good chance of being rein
stated.
Mooney's removel came after he had
given out a newspaper interview in
which he said that the old police
board was guilty of irregularities.
DARK HORSE: MAY WIX
"When the commission meets this
afternoon it will devote itself to dis
posing of the accumulation of routine
business and it is not expected that
the subject of a new head of the de
partment will be considered in the open
session." although when the board
meets in caycus this morning at 11
o'clock there will be a general dis
russion. The rumor that a dark horse
may be' first to the wire still is preva
lent. '•\u25a0.\u25a0• .:.?: :\u25a0.•*•\u25a0...\u25a0•'
It Is likely that the new commission
will express itself today on the policy
of limiting and gradually eradicating
thg cafes and side entrance saloons in
the residence district, against which
evil Sweigert already has taken a de
termined 6tand. Petitions from two sa
loons for permits to conduct cafes in
the rear \u25a0will be considered and there is
little doubt that th«-y will be denied.
One place Is the Log Cabin saloon in
Market street near Polk, and the other
Is a saloon In Haight street between
Fillmore and Stelner, in the midst of
a residence district.
The commlEFioners have not yet de
rided who shall be chief of police. The
work of Captain M. O- Anderson is win
ning the; praise of the commissioners,
but It Is not believed that Anderson will
be selected. He is not making a fight
for the place. Assured of the energy,
ability and fairness of Anderson, the
commissioners will -show no haste in
electing, the chief, but will make a
thorough canvass of the field and wait
until tjiey have found the right man.
The new commission will meet in
caucus at 11 o'clock this morning in
the secretary's office prior to the regu
lar meeting at 1:30 o'clock in the after
noon. It is expected that President
Sweigert will submit the list of special
duty men appointed by Dlnan and that
several will be. transferred from their
"soft" jobs to patrol duty. Among the
detective sergeants appointed by Dlnan
are Charles H. Taylor, Harry P. Braig.
T.P. Riordan. D. G. Bell. James Regan,
Patrick ' O'Connell, Peter Fanning.
Stephen V. Bunner, John B. Freel.
Thomas A. "Wallace. George A. Graham
and James McGowan. Just how many
or these will be ordered : to street duty
is a matter of conjecture.' \u25a0
AAXIOUS ABOUT JOBS
Others detailed for. special duty, are
Sergeant Campbell, in charge of the
city prisou, and the attaches with one
exception; members on duty -at head
quarters and substations and others de
tailed "with official bodies.
. One change was made yesterday,
when Policeman John WV Standley ,' of
Company B was detailed to the mayor's
office in succession to Detective Ser
geant Fanning. Standley incurred the
displeasure of Dinan and his commis
sion by playing no favorites during the
car strike at the barns at Twenty-ninth
and Mission streets..
The result of today's meeting is
eagerly looked for by members of the
department, some hoping that they will
be allowed to remain in their present
Jobs and others that they will get the
chance" they have been praying for.
Sweigrert . was/ in consultation for
nearly, three hours yesterday morning
•with -Secretary Skelly of the commis
sion, poing: carefully . over the books
and reports and making himself"fa
miliar, with ;the routine .work.
CITY DOCTOR DISMISSED
FOB'^MORALCDWARDiCE"
Dr. Arthur H. Reinstein, an interne
at the city and county hospital, was
dismiseed , yesterday ; from the city hos
pital service on charges preferred at
the meeting' of. the health board ac
cusing him of "moral cowardice.** Dere
liction of duty was another charge
made against the doctor, who, It was
declared- by. Dr. -H. E. Powers of the
board, had shamefully neglected a pa
tient'afflicted'; with an" infectious mal
ady,,from which he subsequently died.
Realizing that his dismissal was immi
nent. Dr. Reinstein sent a note. to the
board yesterday resigning "for obvious
reasons ," as he . expressed it. After a
statement of the 'case by Dr. Powers
the board unanimously adopted the res
olution: dismissing ; Reinstein.
The patient whom Reinstein neg
lected .was : . Jeremiah O'Leary, an at
tendant at the hospital. While dis
posing of the. garments of a man af
flicted with whatvwas 'believed to be
bubonic plague O'Leary. was ; Infected
through. a. cut on his hand and died Au
gust si^Hßipn
The board . listened to and approved
reports - showing how \igorously-; and
thoroughly Health Officer Watkins and
his,, force -/had cleaned: up the, filthy
prices from \u25a0 which a fetr cases- of sup
posed plague had been taken. 'A reso
lution was adopted calling" on the su
pervisors for money -to prevent the
spread of contagious r diseases. - The
board also announced that it would
meet every \u25a0 forenoon until " further
notice.

The Pacific Mail liner Acapulco, Cap
tain Trask, - loaded with - a: valuable
cargo for Central America and New
York. and with about a' score of the 37
passengers ' on board, heeled" over to
sta rboard yesterday shortly, after noon,
submerged a coal .port: which- admitted
the waters of the bay and caused the.
vessel to sink 'alongside the. old Pacific
Mail wharf. .Much of the. cargo, which
is valued at $111,483, will be spoiled by
the submersion.' The baggage^ of the
passengers also suffered \u25a0 serious dam
age. No lives were* lost .'and. nobody
was injured. ,
Except for coaling the Acapulco was
ready for sea. | Only about 40 tons of
fuel remained", to be transferred from
the barge, alongside into - the liner's
bunkers when the accident; occurred.
Tho liner was listed to port, the shore
side, all morning, but as : the ' fuel was
shot into the starboard bunkers \u25a0. the
vessel straightened up and at noon was
on even keel. " \u25a0 . . : . •\u25a0„ .' '. "; -.-. .-vf'.A-''-

the Acapulco reeled over to starboard.
The water ' pouredv Into' the "open -port
and orders -were given to.close.it. --The
coal chute was". pulled; out, |but- the bar
upon - which It had rested ; resisted ' all
efforts of the men. -With i this bar. in
place the port could not' be Closed. ' * ;
By this.time the settling. of; the, ship
made further efforts to -dislodge the

started, *but it was -too late, and; the
Acapulco. slowly sank. ,As the heavily
loaded vessel went down, listed over at

vented its turning turtle.
When, it was .seen that \' nothing
could ; be 'done to prevent the .steam
