The matter was taken under advisement.
THE MARRIAGE A FARCE,
Miss Inez Mercer Finds Herself
in Peculiar PrediCa-
ment.
Her Husband, However, Had a Real
License and a Sure Enough
Minister.

1t is not often that woman marries a
man without knowing it. Yet such seems
to have been the case according to a writ
filed in the Superior Court yesterday, in
which Miss Inez Mercer asks that her
marriage with R. B. Westcott be declared
null and void.
Miss Mercer says it was all an accident,
on her part at least, but she now learns
that the play groom was malicious enough
to secure real live minister and a sure
enough license, and in consequence of this
she was tied hard and fast to q man she
neither likes nor loves.
Now she wants the Superior Court to
annul the marriage, setting forth her rea-
sons IN the following com plant:
Plaintiff herein complaining of defendant
alleges:
That on or about May "a, 1895, in the city of
Portland, Or, the plaintiff and a number of
other people were engaged in some short
dramatic performances for their mutual
That during the course of said performances.
at the suggestion of defendant, plaintiff went
through sham marriage ceremony for the
amusement OF their said mutual friends, who
were present in hotel in said city on said
date.
That on or about September Is, 1895, plain
Till was informed that at the time of said cere-
mony said defendant had marriage license,
and procured said ceremony to be performed
by licensed minister authorized to perform
marriage ceremonies.
That plaintiff was unaware of said facts at
said time, and supposed that it was merely a
sham performance for the amusement of their
mutual friends, and had no idea that defend
ant had with him license or that the gentle
man who was called in to perform the cere-
mony was minister, but believed, as afore-
said, that she was merely going through q
sham ceremony for the amusement of their
mutual friends.
That plaintiff and defendant have never
lived together and have never sustained the
relations OF husband and wife; that said
plaintiff had no intention or thought of be-
coming the wife of defendant, and plaintiff
to marriage with defendant, but that the
consent of plaintiff was obtained by fraud, as
aforesaid, and plaintiff never did consent to q
marriage with defendant.
Wherefore, plaintiff prays for judgment ot
the above court annuAing, canceling and
setting aside the said marriage, and that by
decree the parties to said marriage be forever
released, freed and discharged therefrom, and
from all the obligations thereof, and for such
other and further relief as to the court seems
just.
Miss Mercer is an Eastern woman, and
was visiting friends in Portland at the time
the alleged mock marriage took place. Sht
is now living in San Francisco though
Dorm & Dorm, her legal advisers, refuse tc

woman.
Westcott is theatrical manager, who
chanced to be in Portland on business al
the time Miss Mercer says the accidental
marriage took place. The defendant in
this novel suit is now in the East, and it is
said he will make no contest

two new contracts were sent to San Fran
cisco yesterday.
There was considerable excitement
around Harrison-street pier yesterday
afternoon. The work of discharglng the
bark Prussia was being rushed, and con-
sequently the friction on the hosting gear
was very great. While the men were Work
ing hardest the block caught fire, and 1t
soon spread to the sails. All hands were
called and ordered aloft with buckets. In
few minutes the blaze was put out.
The Master Mariners Benevolent Asso-
citation held a most enjoyable reunion in
Saratoga Hall last, evening. There was
very large attendance, and the "old salts"
never seemed to tire of the may waltz.
Dancing was the principal form of amuse-
ment, and when the affair was all over
everybody said it was the best reunion the
association ever had held.
The sick whalers who came down on
the steamer Jeanie from the Arctic a few
days ago were paid off by the Pacific
Steam Whaling Company yesterday.
Some of them had considerable money
coming to them, and one man, who re-
ceived a check for $1400, felt as rich as a
whaling ventures will fall principally upon
the owners. Last season the catch was an
enormous one and even the sailors had
very large sums coming to them when the
profits were figured out. When it came to
shipping again the owners figured on
another big catch and contracted with
many of the various crews for so much
month instead of by the clay" Had the
men signed under the latter system they
would not have cent coming to them, but
now the owners are out and injured.

ga1ds it as the foremost military station on

CARDS it as the foremost military station on
the Pacific Coast.
General Miles, commanding the army,
has full knowledge of the reservation and
knows its importance as a point OF con-
centration for troops. 1t is fortunate that
the recommendations will be presented to
officers who have served in San Francisco
and possess special knowledge of the sub
ject to be considered.
According to the new plans the parade
grounds cover space 100 feet In length
and 500 feet in width. Many OF the old
wooden buildings which are now within
the space of the proposed parade field Will
be removed; the stables and corral will be
put out of sight under the bluff near the
bay, where the filling has been done; the
hospital will be placed on high ground,
remote from the officers quarters. and
new houses for commissioned and non
commissioned officers will be constructed.
The buildings indicated by lines already
exist, and the dotted spaces represent
buildings in contemplation, The new
roads are not shown in the diagram, but
ways will be laid out and built in harmony
with the new departure.
Colonel Kimball in his report to the
uuartermaster-general says:
After careful consideration of the matter and
The San Francisco call., 1895-10-13

is suggested that it would be well to authorize
several buildings at one time, for, If con-
structed under one contract, very material
saving, it is thought, will be made in the cost,
as the material can then be purchased by the
contractor in cargo lots
In connection with the erection of stables, it
is recommended that 12-inch well be sunk at
the point indicated i'll the plans, where the test
well was bored in 1888. The water in this well
rises to sufficient height to flow to the site of
the new stables by gravity. It is believed that
q 12-inch well, sunk to the depth of 125 feet,
will furnish all the water required for use in
the several stables and corral and would obviate
the necessity of connecting the stables with
the post works and consequently reduce the
quantity of water to be pumped over the hill
from the pumping works.
Colonel Kimball also sets forth in his
report that the erection of brick barrack-
buildings required the demolition of five
of the old non on-commissioned staff or mar
ried mems quarters. The erection of adj
ditional barracks will cause the destruc-
tion of the remaining buildings in the old
line of married mems quarters. 1t is i'm
portant that provision be made for new
quarters for the authorized non-commis-
stoned staff of the post.

coalsheds, bakery and quarters for COM

full consultation with post authorities have
prepared the inclosed plans showing the pro-
posed arrangement at the post. In making
this plan have had in view the location of the
buildings so that the least amount of grading
would be necessary and also the utilization of
the present roads as far as practica BILE. 1t will
be observed that the hospital is on slight en-
tected by the hills from the prevailing winds
which blow past it in a direction away from
the post The site of the present hospital will
be available for the extension of the line of Of
ficers' quarters.
1t is recommended that this map be adopted
and that the new structures as authorized be
built upon the lines indicated therein.
The present order of necessity for new build
ings at the Preside is as follows:
First-Quartermaster's stables and wagon
shed.
Second-Light Battery stable and gunsheds.
hird-Non-commissioned officers quarters.
Fourth-Cavalry stables.

save $4S per night-more than double the
amount that will be necessary to carry out the
proper lighting of Market street with electric
electric light furnishes volume equal to at
least six gas lamps. The ffty-six electric lights
on Market street will therefore give a volume
lamps would cost the City at IL cents per light
$40 o2. SO that in reality the City would get
with the fitty-six electric lights twice as much
no comparison made between the obsolete gas
lamps and the modern electric lights. This is
not a question of personal preference for the
one company or the other: If the gas company
could produce better light than the electric
light company it would equally have our sup
port.
The matter was taken under adyisement.

Patrick McGlinn, who died in 1891, was ex-
ecutor of the Hugh McGlinn estate from 1879.
Yesterday Everett Ames petitioned for letters
of admins tration on the estate of Patrick, al
leging that the latter fraudulently obtained a
power of attorney to represent Susan Monagle
in the settlement of the Hugh MeGlinn estate,
and that for her he drew $14 757 IL and ac-
counted only for $1,000. 1t is also alleged that
McGlinn conveyed his property at Guerrero
and Seventeenth streets to his wife, Mary Nc
Glinn, in 1889. Mr.. Ames asks that he be ap-
pointed administrator of the estate, declaring
that the widow should not be allowed to fill
thatotfice.

with contempt of court in refusing to pay 1928

Crichton, was before Judge Cotfey yesterday.
Another commitment to jail was ordered, but
the Judge granted a stay of execution until
