TOO MUCH TROUBLE.
Why Fish Commissioners Do Not Do
Their DnrE to the State.

Why Fish Commissioners Do Not Do
Their Duty to the State.
Some months ago a man named Tunsted
presented a bill to the State Board of Fish
Commissioners for four hundred and some
odd dollars, due him for services rendered
in the capacity of deputy, claiming that lie
had been engaged for such service by Fred
p. Callundan, Chief of Patrol. Callundan
denied that he had ever made any contract
whatever with the man, and the board
promptly refused to audit his bill.
Argry at being unable to collect what he
considered honestly earned money, Tunsled
addressed a communication to the board, in
which lie preferred serious charges against
Calundan and demanded that an investiga-
tion be made. j. Downey Harvey, Chair
man OF the board, promised to make such
an investigation ut once, and day was set
for a meeting of the Commissioners. This
was last August For some reason, perhaps
best known TO themselves, they did not
meet and have not since met to institute the
promised inquiry into the official conduct of
their Chief oil Patrol.
When j. Downey Harvey was asked yes
terday conee ming the seemingly unneces-
sary delay III a matter which concerns the
people who employ the Board of Fish Com
missloners and who consequently have
right TO know how State funds are being
handled and appropriations disposed of, he
said: We have made no investigation,
and, in fact have concluded that this is IL
matter not within the province of the board.
1t Is none OF our business, and we are not
going TO trouble ourselves"
When asked as to the method of ascer-
tanning the innocence or guilt of Callundan
he said: "Ob. l don't know. told Tun-
sted to take his charges before the Grand
Jury, and suppose he will do So"

liberately pulling the cigar from his month

it did not anger the gentleman who had been
offended. Cooly taking another cigar from
his pocket, he cut off the end and addressed
the woman.

Dismissal of Tragedian Wnrde's Suit
Agaibst John ID. Fiske of Fresno.
On motion Of Joseph d. Redding in the
United States Circuit Court yesterday, II
dismissal was ordered Of the suit for $40, 600
damages by the noted tragedian Frederick
Warde against John d. Fiske, the Fresno
lawyer, who has since met with a tragic
death. The reason given for the dismissal
was that the suit against Fiske was per-
sonal one and abated with his death.
On March 18th last, as Warde and his
troupe of actors were passing through
Fresno, Fi>ke had summons in an action to
recover 500, alleged to be due for rental of
theater at Fresno, served on the tragedian
and had his baggage thrown upon the plat
form from the baggage-car. The troupe was
billed TO appear on the next day at Los
Angeles, and in order to secure the release
of the waTdrobes i'll the trunk Warde paid
the 500 to Fiske and SIS extra, which the
latter claimed for costs.
Warde Immediately brought suit for dam
ages, claiming that no such sum as the 500
paid was due for any theater al Fresno and
that Fiske knew ii, and also that the news
paper reports in the East did him onsider-
able damage. Before the matter could be
brought to trial Elske was killed.
