NEW JUDGE TIES
OFFICE WITHOUT
USUAL CEREMONY
Wiley F. Crist Appears
Without Flourish on the 1
Bench in City Police ;•;
Court y \
PLUNGES INTO WORK I
~ LIKE AN OLD HAND
Successor of C. F. Weller
Meets Other Police Judges
: After First Session
Devoid of the usual congratulatory
speeches and floral offerings, persons
about the hall of justice yesterday
hardly, realised that a new judge was
inducted into "office. Judge Wiley F.
Crist, who was elected on April 22 over
former Judge Charles L. Weller in a
recall light, occupied the , bench in de
partment No. 1 of the police courts at
11:11' o'clock 'in the morning.
Judge Crist, apparently a : trifle ner
vous, entered the -courtroom from his
chambers without ceremony of . any
kind. He posed several ;■'; minutes ,' for
the ; newspaper photographers and then
commenced the calling of his calendar,
which was ,, a short one.
Attorney John Hogan was the first
lawyer to --present- a motion to the new
magistrate. ** "If ', your honor please,"
said Hogan, "I would ask that the case
of jJames V. Fitzgerald, charged with
speeding, be postponed I until Tuesday
by consent." Judge Crist, after obtain
ing the views of Assistant District At
torney Ackerman, consented to the con
tinuance , and thus ! the first case ■ was
disposed of.
Policeman Frank Tracy had the
honor of being the first officer to swear
to a complaint before Judge Crist. Dur
ing his stay; of an hour on the bench j
Judge Crist signed four warrants. He
issued his first .warrant. for the ar- j
rest of Joe Greenberg on a battery
charge. H. Green of 1012 Filtmore
Street swore to the complaint. :
* Judge Crist dismissed two cases. He
warned Henry J. Dempsey, charged
with allowing the- muffler of his auto
mobile to be open while passing a hos
pital, to be more careful In the future
and that a second arrest would result
in a fine. ".' - "'■*,",'.' . ■;■■ -' .% \ '^w^-y^Tc
He also dismissed the case against
Fred Townsend, a motorman, charged
with -battery. The complaining wit
ness asked that Townsend be allowed
to so -rrtrrth in search of *a' position. ;;• :
S<fven other cases; were postponed
untiT'today or the early part of next '
week. '
Judge Crist did not notify the three
other police judges that he would oc
cupy office yesterday and as a con
sequence, the magistrates did not call
upon him to offer their congratula
tions. In the afternoon, however, he
met Police Judges Shortall, Deasy and
Sullivan, and held a long conversation
with them.
Judge Crist, it is said, asked Chief
of Police White, for the privilege of
naming his | own bailiffs. .» The chief
denied his request, it is rumored. Wil
liam Zephrus, clerk in Judge Sulll
can's court, has : been assigned to the
new judge for duty. Patrick ' Hagan,
for?; years \ with Judge,; Weller, . was
transferred Into Judge Sullivan's court.
Dan Long, official court stenographer,
a civil service appointee, remains in
his position. . i 1 *-
Mrs. Campbell, called the mother of
the recall movement, and many other
<'ladies,; were In court but made no dem
onstration. :

M. S. Bulkley & Co., who have been
handling , f the Autocar in the . southern
end of I the Htate for the I past lewjy ears *

northern : district *s well. The big
Pennsylvania factory has named the
firm to succeed the H. O. Harrison com
pany in this ; territory, and the south
erners have t;lost; no time in establish- t
ing temporary quarters here. George
IJarig, who was formerly associated
with Walter Morris when he : " , was Au
tocar agent, has been named as man
ager of | the » local branch, and for the
time being he will maintain head
quarters with the Marmon distributers
In Golden Gate avenue.
According to ■ Mr. Lang, the Bulkley
company is going to make a specialty
of the commercial vehicle end of the
business, f and the llrm is going to erect
a large garage immediately, in which
will .be , installed? a ; large service i de
partment ; and elaborate offices :, and
showrooms. » •
. The new distributers are going to
make a ' specialty of ! a night service
department, in which owners of f Auto
car trucks and wagons may have their
vehicles -..- overhauled after business
hours, and thus be put to no extra ex
pense by having repairs made during
the time the ;■ wagons are j needed.
