 The out of office programme of tho president and his cabinet is almost set. tied. Cleveland after the 4th of March will take up the handling of the fortune he has accumulated ill and out of office, and his secretary of war will be with him, as heretofore, in all his deals, hay- ing his eyes politically cast toward gn- bernatorial honors.
 Both Secretary Olney and Attorney General Harmon will return to the law practices they have kept tethered safely during their time of service with Cleye. land Secretary Herbert is said to be slated for good thing in connection with the Cramps projected ordnance plant.
 Carlisle is certain of the future. as dozen threads are ill his hands. and any one will lead to comfortable berth for life. It is thought he will become gen. cral counsel for the Equitable Life Az surance company at $25, GOO year.
 Morton need have no cares for the fu- ture. He was very wealthy beforo hs entered Cleveland $ cabinet, and, while he has added nothing to his fortune dur ing his four years ill the agricultural department, he still has money enough to keep him comfortable for many times his natural term of years. He will 60 back to his farming in Nebraska.
 Francis of the interior department will return to the St. Louis wheat pit.
 Postmaster General Wilson, practical- ly without fortune, will be deprived utterly of the support he has derived from his place ill the house, and. having been so long divorced from the active practice of law, will be in the worst po- sition of any of the cabinet people.

THEY WILL INVESTIGATE,
Heath Authorities Startled at
the Death of Mrs. Mollie
Hagan.
May Have Contr acted Typhoid Fever
While Incarcerated in the
City Prison.

The case OF Mrs. Mollie Hagan, who
died at the City and County Hospital yes
terday of typhoid fever, which is recog-
nized as an infectious disease, has some.
what startled the Board OF Health. mas
much as it is quite possible and indeed
robable that she contracted the disorder
while an inmate Of the City Prison.
An investigation of the sanitary ar
rangements of the prison, similar to the
one made several months ago, will proba-
bly, be made with view of ascertaining,
ii possible, from whence the germs thai
ended Mrs. Hagan's lille emanated.
Mrs. Hagan and her husband, John r.
Hagan, quarreled on February 26. at their
residence. 80 South Park, and in a mo-
ment of anger she stabbed him in the left
breast with carving knife. He was
taken to the Receiving Hospital, and fol
some days his life was despaired Of, but lie
slowly improved, ana is now out o1
danger.
Mrs. Hagan was arrested within twenty.
four hours, and after being detained al
the City Prison for several days, was
charged with assault to murder, as her at
torney had applied for writ of habeas
corpus. Her case was assigned to Judge
Conian's court.
On March 16 she was removed from the
prison the Receiving Hospital. 1t was
thought that she was suffering from pnen.
monia but on March 20 typhoid fever de.
veloped, and she was sent to the City and
County Hospital, where she died yes
terday.
She was only q years OF age, and had
been married for four years. She leaves a
little girl who is being cared for by her
parents in Alameda.
DR.. Williamson of the board said that
the matter had been called to his atten-
tion, but that no action had been decided
ON, though the case would. of course, be
investigated. He said the woman might
or might not have contracted the disease
In the City Prison.
1.-The germs of the disease often lurk in
peoples bodies for some time before they
cause any serious discomfort" he said,
land Mrs. Ha an might have contracted
typhoid fever before her arrest.
"The mbing of the prison may be
responsible for the case, but an investiga-
ton will be necessary to settle that point.
1t was repaired some time ago, l under
sta nd, ard should be in good condition"

from the eating house toward tne. VINE
house. Garrique did not arrive there. Oh
the way he was struck on the back OF the
head and injured so seriously tnat ne uleu
three DAYS later. Pettifils was the last
man seen in his company and was the
only man who was known to have quar-
relied with the MT urdered laborer.
After the murder suspicion at once fell
on Pettifls, and in the excitement that
oyercame him he made some damaging
admissions. All these facts were told this
morning by Deputy District Attorney
Church in his opening statement TO the
Jury, and he said that the people We're pre-
pared to prove every link in the cnain OF
evidence that he had outlined and which
would undoubtedly prove that Pettifls
was guilty of the crime of murder, as
charged.
The County Surveyor next explained the
diagram showing where the men left the
eating G. house, and just how far they had
got when Carr que was fatally struck.
Mr.. Church then took hold of the diagram
and made the details a little palmer, con-
meeting them with the theory of the MUIR
der which he will attempt to substantiate.
Mr.. Paris Jr. gave some testimony tend
ing to show that Pettifils was the guilty
party. After the injured man was found
Mr.. Paris and his wife drove downtown.
and on the way they met Pettifils. Mr..
Paris said. II guess you kicked him
pretty hard?"
Yes" replied Pettidls; "but I could
not help it; he is always picking at me. =
Pettifils then asked the witness, Twill
you do me a favor?" While Paris was
hesitating Pettifils said, II know 1 will
be arrested for battery, and l don't want
to nave charge of carrying concealed
weapon placed against me-" He then
gave Paris his revolver.
Mr.. Paris then described the manner in
which Garrique was taken sick and how
he suffered until he became unconscious
and finally died. The trial will be con.
tinued tomorrow.

GAzED At A RED Spot,
Theodore Pettif s on Trial for
Numbering His
Friend.
Tie Winehouse on the Diagram Was

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALL,
Qns RrnadWaY March 30


sos Broadway, March 30.
In Judge Ogden's court this morning a
young man named Theodore PettifiIs sat
gazing at little bright red square in big
DIAGRAM tackled on the wall by the County
Surveyor. On that diagram IN great
measure, and especially on the red spot
upon it, depends the life of the young TEL
low who watched it so intently, while the
District Attorney and the Surveyor ex-
planned its meaning to the jury.
There was Just touch OF irony In mark
ing that particular spot bright red, as
all the rest of the buildings on the chart
were dirty drab, and the prisoner visioly
shuddered when the explanation was
made that the red spot was the WINE
house.
Last Christmas day a party of la5orers
were enjoying sumptuous dinner on the
Paris ranch near Livermore. Instead OF
talking about peace and good Will and
other things, which are general y sup
posed to be germane to Christmas time, the
men partook of the red wine from the
winehouse until hatred and anger stirred
their souls.
Among the company were Theodore
Peitifils and Frank Garrique. The two
men, friends when sober, were always
quarrelsome after looking too long on the
red wine. They commenced the conver-
sat1on about a subject upon which they
could not agree, snd soon were involved in
a violent quarrel. In the middle OF 1t
Pettifils took his gun from his pocket,
placed it on the table and said to Gar
rioue, IF you are not coward let US set
tie this matter right here" Friends in
teryened and prevented conflict, but the
hatred between the two men was only
stif1ed tenn porariiy.
