Lawyer Lyman I. Mowry has an Intellectual or, to speak more precisely, an intellectual looking head, but he is modest and does not like to see a likeness of it In the dally newspapers. While defending, a named Fong Mey Took before United States Court Commissioner Heacock yesterday afternoon he noticed Mr. Johnson, a newspaper artist, sitting at the opposite side of the table sketching him. "Stop that!" thundered the lawyer.

"My face is my property and you have no right to sketch it. If you don't desist I will have you thrown out of the room Artist Johnson calmly proceeded with his sketching and Mr. Mowry appealed to the court, but the court declined to Interfere. The court remarked that wasn't aware that Johnson was disturbing the peace and dignity of the abode of justice and the triumphant artist placed the craj'on ac-simlle of the intellectual head into his pocket. The young woman whom Mr.

Mowry was. defending 1 from the charge of being unlawfully In the country was one of the thirty-five captured in the recent Federal raid in Sullivan alley. She swore that she was born in this city and that she was taken back to China at the age of 6 years. On her return to this port she proved to the satisfaction of the Collector of Customs that she was a native American and was allowed to land. Quan Quock Suey, one of her witnesses, told the.

court that he knew the prisoner when she was only a month old and had seen her a hundred times. at least before she was taken back to China. The woman had sworn that Quan had seen her only once before she went to China and that was when she was a year old. although she did not explain the precocity of her memory for one so younjr. Judge Heacock took the case under, advisement.

LAWYER MOWRT'S FACE IS HIS OWN He Threatens to Ejject a Newspaper Artist From Court. The Board of Public Works has taken exceptions. to the figures returned by the Auditor showing that more money Is spent for, salaries In the Bureau of Streets than for improvements on streets. The board claims that the Auditor has Included the cost of labor in the salaries paid. At the request of Mayor Phelan the board yesterday submitted the following statement covering the subject: During the six months beginnlnr September, 1900.

the total sum paid for salaries In the Bureau of Streets was $15,064 16. The cost of labor, consisting of bricklayers, hodcarrlers, rammers, pavers, carpenters, sewer cleaners, but not including inspectors and aupetinteridents, who are included in the salaries account, was $39,631 18. The cost of material, consisting of basalt blocks, brick. cement, shovels, picks and all necessary tools used by labor, was $12,969 05.: The repairs to. county roads, miscellaneous repairs and repairs in front of city property, amounted to $4430 2S.

The necessary teaming for hauling the material to the bricklayers and pavers, placing: barricades upon the streets, removing detritus from sewers and placing lanterns on dangerous streets, cost $15,177 55. The amount expended for bituminous pavement repairs was $7055 76. As labor, material and teaming are necessary for repairs, it will appear, by adding these various items, that for. eix months the amount expended by the Bureau of Streets for repairs was $79,263 82, and for salaries $15,054 16. The.

total amount of salaries in the Bureau of Streets for the six months for the above amounted to $4650. The charter and ordinances require that certain records be kept In the Bureau of Streets, and It is necessary that employes; whose Balaries for the ilx months amount to $6324 16, be employed. I Salaries paid to keepers of bridges amount, for the six months, to $2280. Salaries paid to inspectors of work done by corporations and of street cleaning amounted to $1800, making a total of salaries of $15,054 16. For the year 1900-1901 the sum of $36,604 was eet aside for repavlngr accepted streets.

Up to March' 81, 1901, the sum of $27,567 expended on the following new work: Reconstructing Spear-street wharf $634100 Repaving Sixth street from Folsom to Harrison 1681 45 Repaving Fourth street from Howard to Harrison 6659 33 Repaving Grant avenue from 1 (5 street to the north line of 5370 05 Repaving Main street from Mission to Howard 7515 15 The board has entered into contract, in addition to the above, for the repaving of Sacramento, Clay and "Washington streets, from Montgomery to Sansome, at a cost of $678, and for the repaving of Pine street, from Sansome to Battery, at a cost of $2650. It has also called for bids for the repaving of Front street, from to Jackson, and also the crossings of Washington and Front streets and Clay and Front streets, at an estimated cost of $5715, making a total for repaving accepted streets of $42,810, this latter sum being $6206 35 in excess of the amount appropriated this purpose. ried Places.

Diaz, The trial of the litigation between the Pennsylvania Consolidated Mining Company and the Grass Valley Exploration Company is dragging its weary and technical way along in the United States Circuit Court before Judge Morrow without a jury. The trial was begun, as already announced in The Call, on April 16, and since that time, except on Sunday and holidays', has been progressing. The suit was begun in the Superior Court of Nevada County on August 6 of last year and was transfered to the United States Circuit Court. By stipulation the suit of the Pennsylvania Company vs.

the Grass Valley Exploration Company for and that of the Grass Valley Company against the Pennsylvania for $100,000 damages for ejection were consolidated insofar as the ownership of the property is affected. After the question of ownership has been answered the damage issue will be taken up. Pennsylvania Consolidated owns tho Pennsylvania claim and the Liberty Hill mines and the Grass Valley Exploration Company owns the General Grant, Parr, Sims and Telegraph mines and the J. C. Harry agricultural patent, several blocks and lots In Grass Valley and the Crescent quartz mine, lying south of.

the townsite. The Pennsylvania claims are completely jihut in by the Grass Valley Company's mines. The Pennsylvania Company' contends that the bodies of ore which they have been and are working are being encroached upon by the underground works of theWYOD mine and that those veins and ore bodies apex within the surface lines of the Pennsylvania's claims. They contend also that- the ore bodies lie In bunches connected by stringers, some of these ore bodies overlapping one another. They are trying to prove that the Grass Valley Exploration om a ny has stoped these ore bodies from the 900-foot level and has extracted therefrom large quantities Of gold.

Among the expert witnesses examined as to the continuity of the Pennsylvania Company's ore bodies are W. F. Englebright, Bennett Ople, who worked for many years as foreman and superintendent for the plaintiff; C. A. Brockington, superintendent of the Orleans; George C.

Starr, manager of the Empire mine and Charles E. Uren, manager of the Eagle and Eagle-Shawmut. Yesterday John Williams, a miner, was on tne stand to corroborate the evidence of the witnesses named as to the ore bodies being worked by the apex in the Pennsylvania claim. The cross-examination by the attorneys of the Grass Valley Exploration Company displayed an intention' to. prove that the ore bodies spoken of by the witnesses encountered after the bodies apexing the Pennsylvania had pinched out and were therefore separate and independent deposits.

The Pennsylvania people allege also that the works have encroached by an upraise from the 1100-foot level and Btoped out ore of the value of $600,000.

The Eclipse Cracker Factory has closed Its doors.

It was founded nearly half a century ago by Thomas J. Chadbourne, Joseph Chadbourne and H. and W. Pierce in 1652 on Dupont street, between Green and Union, and had continued uninterruptedly In business, making fortunes for beveral. Thomas J.

Chadbourne has been identified with the enterprise during the entire period.

The costly machinery Is for sale. As manv as fifty employes have been working in the factors'. They are out, with the understanding that the works will not resume.

Thomas J. Chadbourne said last evening that the reason he had finally decided to close down permanently was because of the competition among the cracker bakers, which had reduced the prices so that there is no money in making crackers at this time. It was possible that there might be some change in conditions after a while, but he deemed it the best to stop. The smaller business of baking cakes, bread, will be continued by his sen. Howard experimentally, to see it will pay.

Mr. Chadbourne has supplied the Pacific Mail Steamship Company with ship bread for many years arid also has filled large army contracts. The business has always been in the same block since It was originally located there, and has been the largest business enterprise In that immediate section. Eclipse Cracker Factory Quits Business Finally. PORTILS SWING FOR LAST TIME Mission residents are very much worked up over the depredations of one or more burglars who have been operating in that portion of the city of late.

Captain Seymour was a very much surprised man when it was reported to him yesterday morning that four houses in the. Mission had been entered the previous night and many articles stolen. The first residence visited by the burglars was that of Louis Schnetzler, 3744 Twenty-second street. Entrance was effected by a pair of nippers, by which the key was turned. Schnetzler lost 75 cents and a bunch of keys.

J. H. Keefe, 3S29 Twenty-first street, was the next man visited by the Industrious thieves. Keefe's clothing was taken into a building- in the course ql construction near by and the pockets emptied. Mrs.

W. Ordway's residence, 3825 Twenty-first street, was then visited and robbed of a quantity of jewelry. The last place visited by the enterprising thieves was the residence of H. G. White at 899 Noe street.

A number of watches and considerable coin were taken from the Noe-street residence. A rather unusual feature of the burglaries was the leaving of the clothing near the places from which it was stolen. Captain Seymour has a squad of detectives detailed on the four cases and has Instructed his men to make special efforts to capture the daring fellows. BURGLARS RAID IN THE MISSION Industrious Thieves Rob Four Residences in One Night. AT a meeting of the Park Commissioners at the Park Lodge last evening it was announced that San Francisco will shortly have for her very own three examples of the work of Corot, Daubigny and Millet, that are to hang on the walls of the Park Museum.

These priceless pictures are the property of Miss Sarah Spooner, one of the most prominent benefactors of the museum, and are now adorning the walls of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Their generous owner will leave San Francisco to-day for the East, and CLAIMS HAXF OF ESTATE OF CALVIN FENTON FARGO Alleged Widow of the Files Demand for Share of Commu- nity Property. A legal fight for one-half the fortune of the late Calvin Fenton, Fargo was instituted yesterday by Jenny Dutrit-Fargo, who alleges that she the surviving widow of the deceased. In her- complaint, which was drawn by her attorneys, E. B.

Davis and ex-Judge A. Sanderson, the plaintiff does not state when or where she married the deceased, simply alleging that at the time 'Of his death and for many years prior thereto she was his lawful wife- The claimant set'forth that at the time of the death of Calvin F. Fargo he was possessed of property worth $370,000. of which $240,000 still remains in the hands of the executors of his will, the sum of been distributed to the preferred legatees, Mary Fargo Stewart and Edward Fargo. Of decedent's estate the claimant alleges the.

sum of $275,000 was community property, one-half of which she claims under the law. The community property, she says, consists of $70004o. bank, bonds and stocks of the Southern Pacific Eastern Dynamite Company. Hotel Rose Company, -Empire Mill and Mining Company, Santa Ana Water Company and the Ventura Land and Power Company, and real estate in this city and county and in Contra Costa, San Mateo and Ventura counties. In conclusion the claimant alleges that the executors of the will refuse to recognize her claim and refuse to admit that any of decedent's property is subject to the community interest of a surviving widow.

Hence she prays that the court determine that she is the surviving widow of the deceased and allow her one-half of the property found on investigation to be subject to her community interest. Though Calvin F. Fargo's most intimate friends and relatives disclaim any knowledge of his alleged marriage, the attorneys who represent the claimant say they confidently expect to establish her claim. These examples of the greatest painters of the modern French school Corot. the wonderful landscape painter; Daubigny, also a great landscape genius, and Millet, head and shoulders above them will prove a splendid addition to the museum gallery and will perhaps induce further gifts of equal worth for the artistic betterment of the San Francisco public.

The Commissioners received a donation of three boxes of curios and relics from the Philippines from Captain Curry of. the Twenty-seventh Infantry, and a golden key from the Native Daughters. Immediately on her arrival there will order the forwarding of the pictures to their future destination. That the affairs of the Union Trust Company are in a most prosperous condition is evidenced by the fact that the directors have decided to increase the already exceptionally large amount of paidup capital from $750,000 to $1,000,000. President I.

Hellman says that the business is in a very prosperous condition and that the outlook promises still greater things. The combined assets of the banking and trust departments of the business are said to be in the neighborhood of $20,000,000. The directors, therefore, have declared a dividend of 10 per cent, payable on stock from surplus earnings or credited from the surplus profits to capital. They have also Called on the stockholders for 10 per ccht or $100 additional per share, making in all a paid up capital of $1,000,000.

It has become increasingly apparent, however, that the administration of this university takes a rather seriously divergent view of the equities involved in the case? that have arisen here during the year.

S. My Dear Sir: Thank you for the favor of your notice of reapixjintment. I beg leave at the same time to place in your hr.nds my resignation as aspoolate professor of philosophy, the resignation to take effect either directly, or at the end of the semester, as you may think best. My reasons for taking this step relate both to the dismissal of Professor Roes In November and to the subsequent policy of the university administration. At the time of the original difficulty you made it known that the removal had taken place contrary to your deeire, and that you were not responsible for the act.

Facts which came to light at that and subsequently made It seem evident to me that Dr. Hose had been dismissed partly because of the founder's objection to the participation of university Instructors In public political meetings, partly because of the objections to the specific contents of certain of his public utterances upon matters within the limits of his own specialty, and partly because of a fear of vaguely dangerous social tendencies, which it was believed that his teachings, both within and without the university, were likely to foster. Recently I have been permitted, with others my colleagues, to review the whole of the documentary evidence in the case; as result. I am forced to the conviction that the forepoinK conclusions as to the Jn the affair ate verified beyond the possibility of further doubt The significance of those facts to me clear. I do not know what is meant by the somewhat curt phrase freedom' it seems to lend itself freely to subtleties of interpretation.
