The Firm Of Sherman, Clay &

Trusted Clerk.
TURNED HIS POPULARITY TO ACCOUNT.
Made Many Sales by His Accomplish
ments, but Increased His Sal
ary Without Consent,

There is mourning on the Rialto; there
is wondering in society; there is con-
sternation among music-lovers. A we'll
known figure is missed and another good
fellow" has gone wrong.
When the last steamer sailed for Japan
It carried 2 passenger whose depar-
ture was not heralded and in whose
cabin there were no bouquets.
Melville Ellis the welI-known sales
man for Sherman, Clay & Co., whose
persuasive tongue ready Wit and musical
ability bad so far advanced him in the
good graces OF both halves of the world
that he even aspired TO leadership in the
inner circles, departed suddenly for parts
unknown, leaving Behind him shortage
in his returns 20 his employers variously
estimated from hundreds TO thousands 81
dollars.
Ellis is an accomplished pianist and,
combined with ihs talent, he possesses q
hypnotic tone to his voice which, when
blended with the sweet strains of the man
ufacJured instrument, was Irresistible in
the ears OF those who desired to purchase
fo!ios OF chords, notes, breves and semi
breves.
For many months he utilized these
varied accompli, ,hments to the advantage
OF his EN- mployers but with his increasing
popularity he also enlarged in his ideas Of
mis- own value, and came to the conclusion
that the large salary paid him was totally
inadequate to the services rendered, and

ton. They, too, were slow. and just as
the firm had lost patience and was about
to take decisive measures there was dis
appearance, and it was learned that the
Mikado would soon entertain a stranger
in his kingdom.
With the departure more facts came
out, and it was learned that IN addition to
the sums of money taken quantities of
music that now adorn the pianos of the
tenderioin districts was never paid for at
all, but was presented by Ellis to his IA
vorites in those sections of the city.
But as there were reasons for suppress
ing the peculation when the young man
was still In the city, so are there reasons
why it should be hushed up after his de-
parture, and the firm took its loss 10 its
own bosom and the world was to be kent
in the dark about the whole affair But
the sudden departure and the mystery
surrounding the enforced vacation set
tongues to wagging, despite the efforts OF
the interested parties to the transaction.
One of the mem bers OF the firm of Sher-
man, Clay & Co. was seen last evening
relative TO the EN- beZzlements of his clerk.
1t was with the greatest reticence that he
would discuss the matter at all. In the first
place he declared the total sum OF money
the young fellow had stolen was mere
trifie, and thai the firm had not even
asked the family to make the loss good,
and he declared that 1t was a shame that
the trouble should leak out. tnereby plac

gerated and added that it was not worth
talking about.
In the interview the facts were revealed
that young Ellis bad been in the employ
of Sherman, Clay & Co for something
like a year. and that MS salary amounted
to about from $50 20 $100 d month. The
gentleman further sara that he did not
believe that his salesman had distributed
the firms music around the tenderloin
district to the amount with which he was
accredited.

HUSBAND SAYS
SHE is INSANE
Mrs. John G.. Kellogg De-
tained in the Receiving
Hospital.
She Was Taken by Deputy
Sheriffs From Her Rooms in
the Occidental.
Manifests No Signs of Derangement.
Once Prominent in the His
trionic World.

Mrs. Alice Louise Kellogg, wife Of John
6. Kellogg, who is connected with the
passenger department of the Southern
Pacific Company, was taken from her
rooms in the Occidental Hotel last even
ing by Deputy Sheriffs Ackerman and
Fitzgerald and detained in the Receiving
Hospital on charge of insanity.
Mrs. kellogg was arrested at the IT,
stance of her husband who is at present
confined by disease i'll st. Luke's Hospi-
tai. Why he filed the information against
her she nor none of her friends can tell,
but these facts will come to light during
her examination before the Com MISSION
ers OF Insanity.
This is the second time Mrs. kellogg
has been charged with insanity by her
husband. On February II, 1885, she was
adludged insane and was sent to the Napa
Asylum for treatment. a few months
later she was discharged as cured and re-
turned to her home. According TO her
statements. bowever, her lie was not a
happy one, and she has long suspected
the culmin alton of last evenin

tlery Mrs. Kellogg became ill and went to
The French Hospital tor treatment.
On the 10th of the present month she
lett tie hospital and went to the Occi-
dental Hotel TO 1--we. Her husband was
stricken i'll, and as he went to st. Luke's
hospital she was left alone. Since Mrs.
Kellogg lett the French Hospita! she as
not seen her husband, and in consequence
is at loss TO know how he reached the
conclusion that she was insane and had
her arrested on that charge.
Mrs. Kellogg was extremely rational in
the hospital last evening and manifested
no signs of mental arrangement She
was nervous over her arrest, but took 1t
phllosophically, saying that she would
now have an opportunity to right the in
justice done her by her husband when he
was instrumental in sending her to the
madhouse in 1888.
She is very bitter against him, and at.
tributes all her .fficuIties to his idiosyn-
crasles. She says that he has not treated
her fairy. and has made her life very
unhappy one, but firmly believes that in
the end all Will be rlghted. Mrs. kellogg
was once well known in the histrionic
world. Her daughter, child of her first
nus band, Zoe futile, who died in January
OF the presen: year, was a well-known and
popular actress.
Mrs. Kellogg was at the Occidental
Hotel for the past six days. and during
that time has given no indications of
being insane. The clerks say she has
been very quiet and her actions have in
dicated a Sounu mind.

Ipspectors Mean Business.

Dockery, with his many titles, and foot
racer added, was out again last night un-
til the ''wee sma'" hours CHASING milk
peddlers. He was ably assisted by Chief
Meat Inspector Davis and Mr. Gibney.
Nineteen dairymen were hauled up and
questioned. besides having their milk
tested. Much of the COW product was
dumped into the cutters, but some was
found SO bad that it was carried TO the
city dumps, where Dockery recently
reigned supreme.
1t was discovered that the "stuff" would
burn, so it was decided that there was
no water in it. and the question is agita,-
ing the Board of Health, What was il?
The Board of Health evidently means
business, for the permits of H. Lottman,
X. Marble and ]. J. Townes will be re-
voked on the strength of the tests made
by Dockery and assistants last evening.
Without doubt the miIkmen will again
appreciate the fact that Dockery is still on
deck, and the public will receive good
milk Tor while, at least until the garbage
question again comes up, and then it is
only natural that the man OF uniform and
titles will be called elsewhere. Then all
will again drink what is thought by the
miIkmen TO be The best for them.
Where will it all end? is the question
asked by the general public, but Dockery
smiles and says, "Watch me-"

HAD A REVOLVER
IN each HAND
Strange Freak Of William
&. Rines, a Potrero
Carpenter.
He Almost Scared the Life Out
Of Mrs. Anna Wood and
Three Others.

William II. Rines. a carpenter living in
the Potrero, armed himself with two
| revolVers, loaded in every chamber, Mon
day night, and started out with no definite
purpose in mind
Shortly after 10 o'clock he passed Mrs.
Anna Wood, 132 Sixth street, her hus band
and two sisters, who were talking on
Howard street, near Harriet He looked
hxedly at them bnt did not say a word.
He returned in a few minutes and walk
Hello, sissies!'
Wood angrily told him to 90 about his
business and not annoy them.
Rines had his hands in his oyercoat
pockets, and as Wood finished speaking,
he pulled out revolver with each hand,
and presenting them at the quartet said !:
IN show you what my business is.
have got you at last, and you will have to
come along with me-"
The quartet scat tered in different direc.
tions. Mrs. Woods sisters ran into
doorway, Wood followed them, while
Mrs. Wood ran across TO the corner of
Sixth street. where Policeman Conlin was
standing.
She hurriedy told Conlin what had
happened and pointed across the street 10
Rlnes. Coniin crossed the street. and
when Rines saw him he walked round
the corner of Harriet street and then
started to run. Conlin chased him all
the time, wondering when he would turn
round and take a shot at him.
After running a block and a half Con-
lin made a sudden rush on tip;oe and
struck Rines resoundlng whack on the
back with his club that sent him UP
against fence, dazing him. Conlin
quickly relieved him of the two revolvery
and clapped the handouts over his wrists.
Rines was charged with assault with
deadly weapon and carrying concealed
weapons and spent the night in the City
Prison. Yesterday morning he appeared
in Judge Campbell's court presenting a
crestfa!len look. Mrs. Wood was present
with one of her sisters and she swore to a
complaint charging Rines with assault
with a deadly weapon. She has not yet
got over the scare.
The defendant declined to give any
reason for his conduct, but said he would
explain everything tomorrow and the
case was continued till then. He ad
mitted that he did not know Mrs. Wood
and had never seen her or her sisters
prior 10 Monday night.
James P. Rines contractor, Potrero,
the young mans father, got him released
on bonds. He said his son had recently
lost q good job and since then he had
been drinking heavily and was scarcely
responsible for his actions Monday
night when his son took the revolvers,
one of which belonged to him, he asked
him what he intended doing, and he said
he was going outside to fire them off.
