TEARS FOR THE DEPARTED,
The Funeral Services Held
Over the Late Mrs. Mary
w. Staples.
A Touching Address by the Rev. MIR.
Wendte of Oakland-Beauti-
full Flowers.

In the darkened parlors of the house, I'll
Taylor street, there rested yesterday morn
ing a casket covered with black cloth, in
which lay the remains of Mrs. Mary w.
Staples, whose death occurred last Sunday.
The casket was surrounded with numer-
Gus floral pieces, in the composition OF
which were the most beautiful flowers. On
the casket lid rested crown of laurels tied
with a white silken bow. There was also
an immense crown of marigolds, while at
the foot was a cross of orange blossoms.
Around the parlors were many designs in
flowers and great punches of ST. Joseph
lilies, heliotropes and violets. Conspicu-
Gus among the many offerings was large
pillow of smilax, in which was worked in
violets the word Mother"
The parlors were crowded with those
who in life were the friends of the family,
and there were representatives of several
charitable institutions with which Mrs.
Staples had been for many years identi-
fed.
The Masonic Choir, composed of Samuel
D. Mayer, J. R. ogilvie, j. G. Baston and
]. f. Fleming, sang Nearer, My God, to
Thee" after which Rev. Charles A.
Wendte, pastor of the First Unitarian
Church of Oakland, offered prayer. The
choir then sang "Shall We Meet Beyond
the River ?"
The Rev. Mr.. Wendte delivered an adj
dress, in which he reviewed at great length
the life of Mrs. Staples and the many good
works she had been engaged in. He spoke
of her love for home, of her devotion to
her husband and family, of her charitable
deeds on behalf of the distressed and the
helpless, and declared that she was one of
the truest Christians in the City, who, by
her conduct in life made her one to be
looked up to by all.
During the delivery of the address many
of those present were moved to tears.
The address was followed by an eloquent
prayer for the bereaved husband and chill
dren, and then the choir, in most feeling
manner, sang "Good Night"
After the friends had taken last look at
the face of the dead the lid was replaced
and the easket borne to the hearse, in
waiting. The pall-bearers were: George
T. Bromley, T. G.. Phelps, W. III. Brown,
Ira P. Rankin, John 0. Earl, G. de Boice,
George w. spencer and G. f. Grant.
The funeral cortege moved slowly toward
the Oakland boat and was ferried across
the bay. The interment was at Mountain
View Cemetery, Oakland.
Mrs Staples left daughter, Mrs. FL. W.
Yeamans; sister, Mrs. A. s. Graham;
two nephews, John and Myron Littlefield,
and five grandchildren, four by her daugh-
ter Lizzie and one by her son John, whose
widow is one of the most prominent
teachers in the public schools of the City.

A MODERN LEAR'S WILL.
1t vigorously Discriminates Between
the Testator's Children.


the Testator's Children.
The Photographic will of Jacob Bacon,
filed yesterday, of which the following are
excerpts, seems to indicate the vigorous
discrimination exercised by the testator in
regard to his children:
1, Jacob Bacon, of the City and County OF
San Francisco, State of California, being OF
sound and disposing mind, do make this my
last will and testament.
give and bequeath to my daughter, Alice
Marie Bacon, the sum OF 81.
/ give and bequeath to my son, William
Oliver Bacon, the sum of 81
give these amounts to my children by my
first marriage to prove that they are not for
gotten by me at this time; deeming that their
complete withdrawal of all filial love and rec
ignition has forfeited all further consideration
by me.
1 give and bequeath to my daughter, Mabel
Bacon, the diamond lingering which I
usually wear; also the sum of $3.50, to be used
in the purchase of such mementO as she may
desire as memento of my undying affection
for her.
give and bequeath to my son, Edward REM
the many "good tines the dear boy and my
self have enjoyed together; also my amethyst
ring and sleeve-buttOns, and whatever scarf
pins and other articles of personal iewelry I
may be possessed of at my death.
The residue of the estate is left to the
wife, who is also made sole executrix. The
estate, which consists chiefly of shares in
the Bacon Printing Company, is valued at
$4,000. The eXecutrix has applied for
letters of administration.

yards for fuel, as he said he would. The
coal oil is exhausted and the firenen, in
order to keep their lamps lii order for an
emergency, are obliged to purchase oil out
of their own pockets.
Reports from the several institutions of
the City last night show that none OF them
are in a position to exist beyond few
days.
Superintendent Weaver of the Aims
house said: "We got load of hay yester-
day, load of potatoes the day before that
and a load of coal to-day. We have put
everybody on short rations, issuing one
potato where we should issue three. Even
with this economy we cannot survive but
a couple of days, and l will be compelled
to turn the people out if we do not secure
relief quickly. There are great number
of people here who cannot walk and they
will have to be maintained here, come
what may. Citizens will have to subscribe
funds; that's all there is to it,.
DR.. Titus said: "We have food supply
at the City and County Hospital that will
last us through three days. l got a load
of meat to-day and / have some potatoes.
Beyond three days, however, we will be
out of provisions. AS for medicines and
appliances, we are constantly running out
of them. These are let on monthly con-
tracts, and no one has bid for the May
contract. We are in bad shape tonight
in this regard, and will have to begin to
beg, borrow or steal tomorrow to take care
of the sick"

Those who were fortunate enough to be
invited and attended the amateur theatre

CONFLICT OF AUTHORITY,
Police Court Officials Will Not
Give Up Their Posi-
tons.
Interesting Developments Expected
In Three of the Courts This
Morning.

| There promises to be an interesting
scene in three of the police courts this
morning in connection with the ms and
outs.
The appointment by the Board of Super
visors of Z. P. Mogan, Charles II. Forbes
and w. M. Madden as prosecuting attor-
neys of Nos. 2, and police courts respec-
lively will then take effect. Also the APP
pointment of A. L. Morgenstern, son of
Supervisor Morgenstern, as clerk of Police
| Court 2.
Prosecuting Attorneys E. III. Wakeman,
John G. Enos and J. 81. Roberts will be on
hand this morning as usual in their re-
| spective courts, as they decline to be re-
moved at the pleasure of the board. There
will in consequence be two prosecuting at
torneys in each court.
Judge Campbell adheres to his resolu-
ton to recognize Mr.. Enos as the prose-
cutting attorney of his court and he has in
structed Clerk OBrien to hand the calen-
dar as usual to him this morning.
Judge Low, on the contrary, will recog-
| niZe Mr.. Madden as the prosecuting attor-
ney of his court, and has instructed Clerk
Sullivan to hand him the calendar. Mr.
Roberts, the incumbent of the office, will
consequently have to fight his own battle.
! The most interesting conflict will be in
Judge Conlan's court, where new prose-
cutting attorney and new clerk will ask
for recognition. Ambrose Watson, the
clerk of the court, said yesterday that he
| will hand the calendar to Mr.. Wakeman,
and the latter will have the moral support
of the Judge.
The Judge said yesterday: II will posi-
lively refuse to recognize any other clerk
but Ambrose Watson. I still hold the
opinion that the Board of Supervisors had
no right to remove him without cause, and
as he is a most efficient and honest officer,
l object strenuously to his removal.
II have not yet been advised by my
attorney, Carroll Cook, in the matter, and
will be guided entirely by his opinion
This is not bluff on my part, but am
i'll earnest. Until it is clearly proved to
me that am legally wrong in the stand I
am taking, l win allow no other man but
Watson to be clerk of my court"
Supervisor Morgenstern called upon
Judge Conlan yesterday morning in his
chambers, and asked him what he in
tended to do when his son presented him
self this morning. The Judge politely but
firmly told him that he would not recog-
nlze his son at all.
There is every probability that the
| courts will be asked to determine the ques-
ton. Watson will hold the office, and
Morgenstern will have to institute pro-
ceedings to GUST him.

SUICIDE OF A PENS|ONER,
An Invalid Veteran Soldier
Disappears From the
Steamer Corona.
Calender, the CoIored Boarding
Master, Defies the Union
Patrolmen.

On the night of April % a passenger dis
appeared from his stateroom on board the
Corona, while the steamer was between
San Diego and Redondo. He purchased
his ticket as L. G. Henry.
In his vallse LETT in the stateroom was
found linen collar, upon which was writ
ten the name of H. C. Lent; also, some
original verse, addressed to amelia" ex-
pressing in rhyme the writer's intention to
commit suicide by drowning. He spoke
tenderly of two boys and it is probable
they were his sons and amelia" is their
mother.
At the Royal House, 126 Ellis street, it
was learned that Lent was an invalid vet
eran of the Civil War, drawing pension
from the Government He had been in
the home at Yountville for several months.
Lent is reported to have been contem-
plating suicide, as he was unable to sup
port himself, and his monthly pension of
$12 was not sufficient for his maintenance.
One night few weeks ago he was found
on the City front with his oyercoat pockets
full of cobblestones with which to sink
himself in the bay. He was about 90 years

HAD UGLY WEAPONS.
Arrest of Two of Murderer Palmi's
Friends Who Were Seeking
fractional Fight.

The cold-blooded shooting of Eugene
Deilvi on Broadway some time ago by
Vincento Palmi seems to have produced a
factional feeling among the friends of the
two men which eliminated about II o clock
Monday night in the arrest of two men
for brandishing ugly looking weapons in a
crowd.
The two men arrested were Louis E. Ser.
roni and Louis Morello. They are friends
of Palmi, and went into Crank IL PAUL.
Place, as a Montgomery-avenu saloon is
called, evidently to pick a quarrel with
some OF Delivi's friends, whom they knew
to be there. Serroni, with much bragga-
docio, brandished a dagger which had been
made from a shears blade, and Morello
exhibited murderous knife and loaded
club in the same spirit Those who were
in the saloon quietly notified the police,
and soon Special Officer Burge and Police
man Freel had the two would-be belliger-
ents in charge, and took them to the old
City Hall station, an intended assault and
possible bloodshed being thus prevented
in the nick of time.
These weapons are reminder of what
was found in PAINTS room after the
Delivi murder. The police found there a
dagger which had in its blade slit filed
with poisonous substance, and there was
also discovered a curious contrivance-a
sort OF nondescript weapon, by which the
user could give victim blow as if with a
slingsnot, the part of the weapon doing
the mischief being a ball of very hard
wood having spikes projecting from it in
all directions. This ball was attached to a
swivel at the end of wooden handle.

Said to Have Exercised Due Care
In Accepting Ball
Bond.

Police Court Judge J. A. Campbell was
completely exonerated by Superior Court
Judge Sanderson yesterday in the impeach-

filed by the Grand Jury, charging him
with having accepted worthless bond for
the appearance of criminal on trial in
Judge Lows court. The man was W. D..

grand larceny. That Judge had set the
bail at $4,000, and Judge Campbell after
ward accepted two sureties in that amount
in the persons of Thomas F. Barry and
