BATTLING THE OLD BONES
Winnifred Barron's Change From
Plaintiff to De-
fendant.
She GraSps at a Fortune But Cannot
Pay an Insignificant
Rent.

Winnifred Barron, or Winnifred Nor
ton, and her son, Edward Andrew Barron,
are being sued for the rent OF little room
on Harrison street by 6. w. Fink. The
rent due is $48, the accumulation of an $8
rent since January, and, although the de-
fendants claim relationship to Edward
Barron, the millionaire, they cannot pay
that small sum.
Winnifred Ba IRON is the colored woman
who claims to have once been the mistress
OF Edward Barron, and Edward Andrew
Barron, she says, is their son. She has
appeared in the Justices Courts before,
three times before, when she commenced
as many different suits against Barr on for
the maintenance of the boy. On each oc-
casion she made desperate effort to Sc
cure judgment for S275 month, but she
failed, and now, while clutching at the
millions, she cannot pay rent of So a
month.
The first suit was commenced in 1882
but 1t was not carried very far, for, as in
later complaint, consideration from
Barron. She says that B. Is. Newman was
then her attorney, but she was promised
house in Louisville, KY, if she would
dismiss Newman and hire two other at
torneys named Levison. This she agreed
to do. and Z. J. Sullivan, Barron's man
ager, turned over to her a cottage worth
$3.50. Soon after that her attorneys dis
missed the suit.
In 1890 another suit was brought, but
upon promise of payment it was dismissed.
As the payment did not follow q third
suit was started. In this complaint it was
alleged that Edward Andrew Barron was
The San Francisco call., 1896-07-02

man of the Merchants Association, Hugh
Craig of the Chamber of Commerce and A.
A. Watkins of the Board of Trade, each of
whom said he appreciated the advantages
that San Francisco would derive from the
before his body, with a view of making
the proposed mass-meeting a grand sue
cess.
Later in the afternoon the committee
called upon President Warfield, who sent
the following letter to the presidents OF
the three organizations:
Dear Sir: The committee appointed to wait
upon you with reference TO the approaching
carnival, consisting of MessrS. f. A. Haber,
l. L. Rosenthal and Colonel George Stone.
have reported this afternoon the hearty well
come and cordial reception which was ac-
corded them by yourself, as the representative
of your association, and on behalf of the mem
bers of the executive committee / desire to
personally extend their thanks TO you for the
manner in which you received them and for
the earnest interest you take in the matter
which believe is of such vital interest not
only to our City, but our State
In view of the fact that the presidents of
those organizations have agreed upon the date
I would suggest that the meeting of the COM
bined associations be held at the Chamber of
Commerce, on Thursday, July 8, at 2 80 P NJ.
Gustav Walters, manager of the
Orpheum, has placed his house for one
evening at the disposal OF the committee
when he will present the gross receipts as
his contribution TO the carnival. The
management of the Chutes on Haight
street will, as soon as their contemplated
Improvements are completed, do the same.
There has been general response from
the leading dry-goods houses and others,
who have been notified to make display
of the colors of the carnival, blue, gold
and cardinal, commencing Saturday morn
ing. July IL.

the son of Edward Barron and that he was
In need of the common necessaries of life.
He was then about years old. 1t was
alleged that Edward Barron had paid $35
month for the support of the boy, but
that was not sufficient, and besides the
money was not paid regularly. Tie only
income she and her son had, the plaintiff
alleged, was $25 month, which she got as
rent from the cottage in Louisville. She
thought 1915 more would about support
the boy and SO she sued for it.
An answer was filed denying all the allie
cations, and then In few days this suit,
too. was dismissed without prejudice.
Then Barron filed an affidavit demanding
that the case be put again upon the cal
endar for trial.
He denied that the plaintiffs were re-
lated to him in any way. and that he had
ever paid $35 month or any other sum
for the maintenance of the child. He said
the suit was brought for the purpose of ex-
torting money from him, and he wanted
the charges brought into court. But the
case was never taken up again.
The suits were suppressed in some way,
but yesterdays filings have recalled them
and the peculiar story they told. The
complaints in the old suits are indorsed
with this brief caption: Complaint for
maintenance and support by poor son
against rich father"

CLERK
v. CULLEN DEAD.
Expired Yesterday After
noon After a Brief
Illness.
SKETCH OF HIS LIFE.
He Was One of the First Set
tiers in Washington
Territory.
PIONEER PRODUCE MERCHANT
Joined the Force Thirty Years Ago
and Two Years Later Was Made
Property.Clerk.

William Cullen, the veteran property
clerk of the Police Department, died at his
residence, 80 South Park. about half past
3 clock yesterday afternoon.
He had been in failing health for several
months and about two months ago was
forced to leave his desk. He was able to
20 around till two or three weeks ago,
when he took to his bed and died yes
terday afternoon.
The deceased was born at Barrettstown
Castle, County Wicklow, Ireland, on
February II, 1922, and was, therefore, in
the 10th year of his age.
He came to San Francisco in 1852, but
only remained few m onths. Then he
went up north and was one of the first
settlers in the then Washington Territory
He was a member of the first Board of
County Commissioners of Whatcom
County and at the same time held the
position of Justice of the Peace.
The Hudson Bay Company at that time
had possession of San Juan Island, which
was claimed as part of the United States.
By consent of Governor Stevens Mr.. Gull
len levied an attachment for taxes upon
sheep belonging to the company, and with
the aid of the sheriff and several OF his
men, successfully carried off thirty-nine
rams.
This action of Mr.. Cullen led to the
United States obtaining possession of that
island and other islands in the Straits OF
Georgia, TACT which he always took great
pride in referring to.
The deceased left Whatcom County
shortly afterward and was for some years
engaged in mining and farming in this
State. He was the pioneer produce mer-
chant in this City, and was engaged in
that business when appointed TO the
police force on November 20, 1866 Less
than two years afterward, on September 1.
1868, he was appointed property clerk. He
held that position for nearly twenty ght
years ana had the rank ana pay of cap
tain.
The late property clerk was highly
esteemed and respected by mem bers of the
department and ali who came in contact
with him. He was lasting in his friend
ships, and many found in him a kind
friend and adviser. The system he inau-
gurated in the management of his branch
OF the department was Incompatible and
was the admiration of visitors from police
departments in other cities. He was care
fu', methodicsl and correct in every little
detail. and hard and untiring worker.
His wife died several years ago, but he
leaves grown-up family to mourn his loss.
1t is probable that Sergeant Moran, who
has been connected with the property

c. nsul of Japan at London. During his
long residence in London he made a
special study of the industries of the
country and the methods of finance.
and banking, as exemplihed by the Bank
OF England.
In 1890 he accepted the presidency OF
the Yokohama Specie Bank and conducted
1t successfully through troublesome
crisis arising out of the currency actions
taken by the United States and India. Mr..
Sonoda was decorated with the fourth
class order of the Rising Sun and also re-
warded with a grant of money for the SER
vices of his bank to the Government dur
ing the late war.
He is accompanid by his private secre-
tary, X. J. Imanishi, who was resident
OF this City eight or ten years ago. He
has travelled extensively since then and
speaks and writes English with as much
1uencv and idiomatic accuracy as native

BALDWIN IN TROUBLE.
The United States Marshal Suddenly
Finds Himself Without Any
Deputies.

United States Marshal Barry Baldwin
was practically forced to suspend opera
tions yesterday. There were five or six
duly appointed deputies hanging around,
but the misfortune consisted In their not
being properly sworn in.
What is generally known as the fee bill
went into effect yesterday. 1t became
necessary for Baldwin to name new depu-
ties or reappoint his old ones prior to the
new fiscal year. As the men under him
had seen years of service he wisely con-
cluded to name them for the positions.
AS Judge Morrow was absent it was i'm
possible to legally install them in office,
and in consequence business was at a
standstill. Judge Morrow is expected to
return to-day. when the deputies will be
formally sworn in.

however, not one word has been received
from the department at Washington, and
in consequence there is no little uneasi-

they will ultimately receive their salary,
but such knowledge does not pay the bills

MIDWEEK THEhTER NOTES
Miss Shannon Shines as a
Modern Becky Sharpe in
Sweet Violets."
The Vitascope Wi Soon Leave the
0rpheum-The Tivoli's Coming
Grand Operas.

Large houses at the California Theater
are the deserved reward of the Stock
well Company's clever presentation of "a
Bunch of Violets" this week. The play is
above the average, especially in one or two
powerful scenes, which are strong without
encroaching on the domain of the melo-
dramatic.
AS Mrs. Murgatro yd Miss Effie Shannon
especially shines. The role is that of an
adventures, a sort of Becky Sharpe char
acter, and in the scenes where Mrs. Murgs-
troyd deals round honeyed words that
stab, In spite OF their apparent sweetness,
Miss Shannon purring manner and guile
less ingenuousness are simply fascinating.
Stockwell is thoroughly effective as
Mark Murgatroyd, the rough, shrewd old
Yorkshireman, and the rest of the cast is
good.
Americans Abroad" will be produced
at the California on Monday.
His Wife's Father" continues to arouse
laughter and applause at the Columbia
Theater. The play is new here, so that
odious comparisons cannot be made be-
tween the present performance and others
that have preceded it. To tell the truth.
however, "His Wife's Father is one OF
the best things that the Frawley Com
pany has done during its present engage
ment and well deserves the large houses
that it is attracting.
The drama at the Grand this week, "One
of the Bravest," has the full amount of
stirring incidents and scenic features.
Emmett Sheridan is proving a good star
attraction, and thanks to Gilbert and COL
dies efforts the comedy element is well
looked after.
The last days of the vitascope are adver-
tised at the Orpheum, and as the Edison
invention has steadily grown in popu-
larity numbers of people are going to see
the last of the May Irwin kiss and the
Cissy Fitzgerald wink. The rest of the
bill, however, is well worthy of attention.
particularly the Fredericks troupe and
the M idgets, who have gained popularity
owing to the recent boom given to prize
fighting.
"a Trip to the Moon" will run for the rest
of the week at the Tivoli. There has been
large sale OF seats for the grand opera
season which opens on Monday. Lucia"
will be the first performance and on
Wednesday Gounod's Romeo and JuIiet'
will be produced for the first time in this
City.
