The Mania of Miss LeOna Suck ert Becomes
 Serious.
She Attempted to End Her Life While Subject to the Con-
 trol of Spirits.
Quiet Examination at Her Home Results in Commitment to
 Agnevs.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
sos Broadway. Jan. 1s.


 sos Broadway, Jan. 19. Leona Suckert was committed to Agnews this morning as the result of an inquiry held at the residence of her brother-in7law, Henry Evers, on San Pablo avenue.
 Miss Suckert is 39 years of age and has been residing for some time with her sister. About a year ago she be- came deeply interested in the Advent ist religion, and since that time has been very close Bible student.
 Gradually she became subject to mel ancholia and finally religion took such hold on her that she imagined she was being persecuted by members of 'other beliefs Medical aid was pro- cured, but her condition gradually be- came wore.
 Last Thursday she showed signs of violent insanity, and was watched con- tinually by a member of the family. Friday she believed she was being chased by spirits and Saturday last she cut her wrist with a razor and also at tempted to use the weapon on one of her nephews. Since that time she has been continually boring over her Bible and has been very Respondent. This morning MT. Evers swore to a com plaint charging Miss Suckert with in- sanity. Her physicians decided that she could not be taken to the Receiv- ing Hospital, so Judge Hall and the doctors examined her at the house, and recommended her commitment. She will be taken to Agnews in a few days

TROUBLES OF THE
 STAINS ARE OVER
Divorce Granted the Plaintiff in the Litigation by Judge
 Daingerfield.
The Collector Ordered to Pay His Family S75 Alinnony Each
 Succeeding Month.

The troubles of Joseph Shain, the debt collector, and Grace E. Shain are at an end-that is, as far as marital troubles are concerned. Judge Daingerfield yes- terday granted the latter divorce from her husband on ine ground of intemper- ance. and ordered that the collector pay s75 a month toward the support of Mrs. Shain and her two children until the further order of the court. The granting of the decree of divorce put an end to a bitter legal contest, but during the contest, the family skeleton of the hu- gants was dragged forth by the lawyers with scant ceremony
 When the case was called yesterday morning, after rest of several days, At torney Reid, who represented the de- fendant, requested the court to conduct the case behind closed doors, as unfair criticisms had been made. This the court refused to do, and the trial proceeded. Mrs. Shain was recalled, and reiterated her testimony given on the stand last week. Many additional tales of trouble were also told by Mrs Shain, and all went to substantiate her accusations against her husband
 When she left the stand her husband was recalled, and he shed some light on several points that caused unhappiness in his home He told the story or his loss of SIG. 900 on stocks and how and why ne left the city at that time and of the trouble that loss brought to him and his. He also explained to the court the com plaint made against him that he had lost much money playing the races. At first, he said. he simply wagered a few dollars on the horses when business took him to the track, but later bet larger amounts. His wife accompanied him several times 10 the Bay District track. and when he made good winnings he would always give her a goodly share, that she might eniov life the more. His wife, he said, never obiected to his playing the races as long as she profted thereby, but when the difficulty arose between them she counted hs gambling propensities among his multitude of sinful habits.
 The case was argued after MT. Shain left inc stand, and shortly after it was Submitted Judge Daingerfield granted the plaintiff a decree as prayed for, The at torney representing Shain objected to the order of the court granting alimony in the sum of $75 month. as he said il was altogether too large an amount to hang as a judgment over his clients head. The court, however. did not agree and ordered that the alimony be paid or the 18th of each succeeding month. This closed the proceedings. and Mrs. Shain with n smile of satisfaction on her face left the courtroom, accompanied by hel dauPhter

W0RKMEN WANT
 THEIR WAGES
Employees of Jory Bros., Shoe Manufacturers, Are
 ClamOring.
Eighty Of Them Are Minus Pay-The Whereabouts Of the Jorys
 Unknown.

There is weeping and wailing among the employees of the Jory Bros. Manufactur- ing Co.,, makers of boots and shoes, 63 to 73 Stevenson street.
 The mental anguish in this case Is in direct consequence of the closing of that concern last Monday, with two weeks pay due to about eighty employees.
 w. J. Jory Is manager and E. J. Jory secretary of the suspended concern. The workmen have been clamoring for their due and hunting high and low for the brothers Jory for the past forty-eight
 hours, but they have not succeeded in finding their late employers, nor nave they yet discovered any plan by which they can get the $500 or so which is said to be their right, nor any fraction thereof.
 It had been agreed upon by the em- ployes to levy an attachment yesterday to secure their claims, but they were dis suaded from that course when an fnvesti- gation disclosed the fact that there was nothing to attach. It Is stated that the ! Jorys, prior to their disappearance, had | collected all the money due the concern. and that there was no property in the | factory subject to attachment.
 The plant used by this concern Is owned ! by the Nolan Bros. Shoe Company, which
 leased 1t to the Jory company about two l seems to have done fair business of | late, and the employees were not anticipat-
 ing any such trouble as has come upon
 Both of the Jory brothers have resided ! for some time past at 3515 Twenty-third 1 street visitor there last night found
 it deserted and learned from neighbors of the Jorys that the latter had moved away the day before-whence no one | could say.
 1t was rumored yesterday morning that
 the Jorys had sailed for the Klondike on | the steamer Excelsior last Thursday, but ! the report was denied later on. At all | events 1t Is certain that the employees of | this factory have no idea where to find l their late employers nor where to look 1 for the wages due them.

A Rejected Jap Suitor Tries to Kill a
 Widow.
ShinjirO Then Ends His Misery by Shooting Into His
 Brain.
Miraculous Escape Of a Baby Girl Who Was Asleep on the
 Bed.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call

Oakland Ofhce San Francisco Call,
 sos Broadway, Jan. 19.
 Had ShinjIro Matsumoto followed the pretty custom of his race and placed a bunch of flowers outside the door of his lover and been guided by their acceptance or rejection a tragedy that occurred this morning would have been avoided. Instead of press ing his suit in genuine Japanese fash ion Shinjiro made a formal demand for the hand of a young widow, and because it was not complied with Mrs. Tama Yuwasku is at the Receiving Hospital suffering from three bullet wounds and her impetuous lover is at the Morgue.
 Tn the Japanese quarter at Fifth and Castro streets shooting was heard about : o'clock this morning. The re- ports were followed by a womans screams and several of the boarders in the house at once went to the apart ments whence came the noise.
 On the floor of the room was the dead body of Shinjiro and on the bed, unconscious and bleeding, was the young widow. Alongside of her. still asleep, was her little girl, and a glance at the direction in which the bullets from the murderer'S pistol flew showed plainly that 1t was only by a miracle that none of them lodged in the child's brain. The woman was at once taken to the hospital. and the doctors found that two shots had entered her jaw and one had gone clean through her shoulders, though neither of them is necessarily fatal. After shooting the woman the man turned the gun on himself, and his life went out with the first shot.
 Mrs. Yuwasku tells the following story: T am a widow, my husband having died about five months ago, leaving me with this little girl. I met MatsumotO in Sacramento and came down to Oakland looking for work last Monday. To my surprise Matsu- moto was also boarding in the house. He at once implored me to marry him, but declined. Yesterday we went for a walk and he repeated hls desire to marry me. He seemed almost beside himself when l told him I did not care for him. This morning before he fin- ished dressing he came to my room and implored me to love him, and told him 1t was impossible. to which he replied that 1 was fooling with him. This is not so, for never gave him to understand that I had any affection at all for him. Without another word he produced a pistol and shot at me three times. after which he killed himself. I cannot understand how the baby did not get killed"
 The landlord of the boarding house says the woman has been looking for work and is a respectable person. An inquest on Matsumoto will be held to- morrow night.
