is prescribed for him. The sick man told
the Mayor that he was discharged because
he refused to take two doses of medicine
IN succession. A few minutes after he
had been given a dose an attendant came
to his bedside and offered him some more
medicine He told the attendant that he
had just taken dose, but the attendant
told him the records didn't show it and
that he would have to take another. The
man refused and was discharged. The
Mayor sent him back to the hospital, but
he was again discharged in short time.
When the Mayor and the two Super
VlsOrS left the hospital they felt that their
position in opposing the management of
DIR. Titus had been materially strength
ened as the result OF their Investigations.
whenever we have taken DR.. Titus to
task for his extravaganza" said the
Mayor, "he has produced the records of
the hospital to justify his expenditures.
Now We have proved that his records are
wrong While dozens of patients have
been given chops and steaks on paper. to-
day we have found but one who got what
was ordered for him. The records show
that the patients get more milk than they
actually receive, and we have their own
word for it that their meat, tea and coffee
are bad"
Ii there is anything about this whole
discussion that makes DR.. Titus tired it is
to hear the Mayor and Supervisors criti-
CHE his business methods.
II may not know much about business"
he said, but if l couldn't conduct the bust
ness of this city any better than they do l
wouldn't criticize anybody else. At the
end of the year they don't know whether
they have balance in their favor or de-
felt to meet. They can't tell what they
have spent until all of their bills come in.
Why, the business methods that these men
practice would wreck peanut stand"
DR.. Titus lays all of the blame on the
Supervisors. He says he went before the
Finance Committee before the end of the
last fiscal year and presented an itemiZed
estimate of the expenses for this year. He
estimated that it would require $4,000 to
conduct the hospital. The committee
thought this amount too much. The doc
tor said he handed his estimate TO Super
visor James, chairman of the committee,
and asked him 10 suggest where any saving
could be made. The doctor said Mr..
James could not find any items in the list
that seemed too high, but nevertheless re-
ported In favor OF apprOpriating only
be told Mr.. James that it would be i'm
on that amount, and the Supervisor told
him to take the money and do the best he
could with it. Now. Titus says he is
blamed because he is turning out patients.
Before going TO the hospital yesterday
the Mayor and the two Supervisors visited
the AImsh0use. There they saw num-

from the County Hospital. all of whom

The next witness was w. T. st. Auburn
an Englishman of French Gulch. Shasta
County, where he is employed as n mining
manager. He had known the two Martins
for some time. The witness and HIS wife
called on Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Martin.
Henry spoke of his brother and his wife
and said he'd have done anything he cou d
TO have got John to give her up. He
thought she was a bsd woman. He did
believe that the child was Johns nor hers,

Arthur Rodgers objected to the question
as presenting a "suppostious" case. but
Thornton retorted that there was no such
word. He supposed Rodgers meant SUP

the question was lost sight OF.

mat IN has opinion Mrs. John had procured
the infant from some founding asylum In

did not remember all.

Mr. Garter was then heard TO say that
he was not hired by Henry Martin as a
lawyer, but was consulted as friend. He
had been three times to Weaverville before
he came to San Francisco. He said he
saw Henry Martin on each occasion.
DO you know where Henry Martin lived
in Weaverville ?"
Dye mean where be took his meals p"
mo. Where did he reside?"
1t turned out that Garter did not know
where Henry Martin resided He visited
John Martin and found Henry there.
But he also saw Henry at San Francisco,
and at the State convention at Sacramento.
Martin consulted him as a friend only.
He paid three or four visits to his office
and one to his house. Martin consulted
him on other matters prior to that time.
He once had a lawsuit respecting a
naphtha steam vessel and wanted a good
lawyer. directed him to two" There

letters of sympathy for him. She had ac-
cess to his room and saw there none other
than Palace Hotel paper. Mrs. Henry
Martin was unconscious until after her
husbands death
The evidence of Preston Woods of San
Francisco was remarkable. He had lots
to say about Mrs. John Martin. but was
not so sure of himself. He got along all
right until tackled by Grove johnson in
cross-examination, when his wealthy min
ing properties turned to dust and his bust
ness relations with Henry Martin TO ashes.
Woods was a bad witness, and as it
appeared that when he offered his testi-
mony to Arthur Rodgers he was anxious
to have a claim OF $500 settled against
the Martin estate aud was duly accommo-
dated by Administrator Pond he got
rather badly used. He was mixed on his
various visits TO Rodgers office. together
with the reasons therefor and his men,
DRY was siagularly capricious. In the end
Grove L. johnson smashed up this wit
ness testimony like crockery vessel and
scattered it to the four corners of the
earth.
There will be lots of trouble to-day.

done So" He was let go.
Ii. r. Given of Weavervile said he was
a merchant, an att0rney-at-la editor OF
a newspaper. deputy assessor, mining man
and superintendent of the telephone
nothing else. He said Henry Martin came
TO Weaverville after John died. Witness
spoke of what would happen If he died
intestate, when John Martin Jr. would
succeed to his property. Martin said ::
That Is attended TO, and neither Mrs.
John Martin nor the child will have a
dollar Of my money" Martin also said
that the child was neither johns nor Mrs
Johns. Speaking of the latter, he said !:
She's an exceedingly dangerous woman,
who wouldn't hesitate to do anything. a
woman to be avoided"
In DISCRIMINATION the witness said
his expenses to the city were paid. He
had also told two or three that their eX-
penses would be raid if they chose 10
journey down. He had never heard that
Henry Martin was once supposed to be
going to marry Mrs. john.
Henry W. Leonard of DeadwoOd, Trim

Martin was sore about Johns marriage
He spoke of his wife as "a loud woman; a
bold, bad designing woman; have nothing
to do with her." He doubted the origin
of the child. and spoke Of obtaining proofs

BERT BROWN WON.
Knocked Out Flynn in
Five Rounds.
A Spirited Contest While It Lasted
Before the Acme Club
in Oakland.

Bert Brown knocked out Fl. #. Flynn In five
rounds at the Acme Club in Oakland last even
ing and thus won handsome gold trophy and
the middle. weight championship of the club.
The men were matched to box six rounds
IL was gentemen's night at the club, and all
the sporting element OF the organization was
Oh hand. Neither Of the principals in the big
mill had ever been "bested," and the betting
was about even on the result of the fight
Brown was a pound and half the heavier of
the two, but Flynn had much the better OF 1t In
point OF height and reach.
The event of the evening was announced at
9:20. The men were cheered as they made
their appearance. Jack Kitchen acted as
referee Stewart Carter and Steve Vicinni as
Judges. George f. Neece was timekeeper for
Brown and NJ. Altmeyer for Flynn. Browns
weight was 16212 POUNDS and Flynn's ISL
The battle while il lasted was a rand one
Flynn assumed the aggressive in the first two
rounds, forcing the fight. He played for Browns
wind, but dtd not land often and was frequently
stopped with sim left-h nder. Brown showed
more science and was much the better general
Each man scored blood in The second round
Brown was very cautious While Flynn walked
around the ring smiling and confident.
In the third round Brown took the fight into
his hands and, as if satisfied with his estimate
of his man, opened up In lively STYLE He
played for Flynn's face, and did not waste
much time avoiding his opponents wild blows.
Flynn repeatedly clinched 10 avoid punishment,
and suffered one knOckdown.
Brown had his man groggy in the fourth
round, but was too wlnded himself to follow up
his advantage. Flynn continued his clnching
and running tactics, occasionally ranyiug
stitfly. Brown was enthusiastically cheered at
the end of this round, for II was apparent that
Flynn had lost heart and would not hold out
much longer
The men had scarcely come to the center at
the beginning OF the fifth round when Brown
daZed his opponent by two or three stiff
punches in the face ana then laid him low with
a weak uppercut.
Tie cheering was tremendous, the spectators
rising 10 their feet and bowling with Joy
easped his Ten seconds away. Kitchen counted
him out, indicating the seconds with motions of
his hand.
The crowd then poured into the ring ana
carried the champion 10 his dressing-roOm on
their shoulders. while Flynn was revived in his
corner.

CAPTAIN AND MEN DROWNED
The First Officer a Native of This
City.
HOW THE LIFEBoAT CAPslZED.
The Disaster Occurred Off Cape St.
James Six Hundred Miles
From Singapore.

Word was received yesterday of the
wreck and total loss of the British wooden
bark William LIE Lecheur off Cape st.
James on Provost Island, 600 miles from
Singapore.
Captain Raynell. First Officer William
G. Stivers of San Francisco, Second Off
Ger Lars Jorgensen and Third Officer
Henry u. Fitzhugh. together with five
English and eight Chinese sailors, were
drowned.
Not a single man of the bark's crew lives
to tell the story of the wreck. the nara
tive being transmitted to Hong-Kong by
some of the inhabitants of Provost ISLAND.
William G. Sivers was native of Cali
fornia, and up to five years ago resided in
this city. Captain Raynell was an Eng
lishman, who took command of the bark in
1898
The LIE Lecheur left Hong-Kong n May
for Singapore with cargo Of general
merchandise and rice. Three days later
she must have found heavy weather and
been dismanted, for when she went ashore
her fore and main masts were gone, and
only the miZZeD was left standing, to which
was attached q mass of ropes and dis
heveled canvas.
Cape ST.. James is particularly isolated
spot, and little is known OF It's topography
by local mariners. 1t lies in 10 degrees
80 seconds north, and Longitude lOI de-
grpes seconds east.
From good offinG it has the appearance
of three separate islands. 1t is desOlate
spot, the sea thereabo Astounding In
sunken rocks. which are usually carefully
avoided by seamen.
A storm of a cyclonic nature must have
W. v,n1 of
her canvas and then drifted toward shore
by some of the strong currents thatswirl
about the cape.
When the vessel was nearly on the rocks
a boat was observed 10 have been lowered.
Into this number of men leaped, deter
mined to brave the dangers of the angry
surf that dashed riot0usIy at the base of
the solid cliffs of granite that bar the APP
Lroach of the sea.
Before the boat could leave the ship it
was swamped by an immense roller that
overturned it, spilliDg its entire crew ana
number of Chinese who had rushed
frantically into it into the sea.
The bark was driven pretty well up on
the rocks, and was boarded by every wave
that rolled sbOrewaTd. Not a human be-
ing could have chung to the wreck and
baffled the resistless rush Of the waters.
William Stvers. the first officer, has re-
lations residing III this city, and they are
said to have been notified of his death.
The William LIE Lecheur was an old ves-
sell and was owned in Hong-Kong and
| London. She was built in 1864. and traded
for awhile between England and India.
! Her tonnage was $40 net.
Another description of Cape ST. James
is That it is a. the eastern boundary of the
Saigon River, and over 100 miles from
any settlement of any size. The inhabi-
tants of Provost Island are nearly all fish
6rmen.

There is not the slightest doubt that before
