A WRIT or mANDAMus WAIVED.
One of Paaker's Attorneys Piles a Com Plaint A gaInsr the Sheriff for Be-
 ing Refused to See His Client.

plant AEaanar the Snerin Tor Be-
 ing Refused to See His Client.
 There seems to be some friction between the sheriff's office and c. Arthur Allen, one of the attorneys for James Parker, according to an application filed in the district court today. Attorney Allen applies for a mandamus against the sheriff to compel that official to permit him to visit his client in the county jail for the purpose of interviewing and counseling with him whenever either may desire to do so.
 NIT. Aliens attorneys are Eugene B. O'Neill, and District Attorney Fl. D. Ross and Deputy District Attor- ney r. W. O'Sullivan. The papers III the case were served on Sheriff Ruffner this afternoon. Sheriff Ruffner could not be found by the loURNAL-MISER representative, but Under Sheriff Dillon stated that J. E. Morrison, who IS associated with MT. Allen, as counsel for Parker, had free access to the jail and to his client whenever he wanted to go, but just why MT. Allen was not allowed the same privilege was not clearly stated, although it may be at the hearing.
 The date for the hearing of the application Was not ser, but will be hearti within the next ten days. The proceedings will be watched with interest, as the decision will determine just how far the authority of the sheriff may be exercised in his control of prisoners.

 five disgusted passengers aboard,
 tired of the country after their first experience, and severely denouncing the Klondike rush. The treasure on
 board was $l0,000. One of the pas sengers said that two hundred men could do all the work offered at Skaguay, and that there were at least five hundred men there who had nothing to do but drink and gamble.

Members of the Ell sueno Company
Claim hey Were Robbed of
Valuable Coal Mine.

ALAMEDA, Nov. 17.-Information has
been received from Alaska from the
Sueno party, of which Joseph A. Leonard
of this city was a member. Leonard Had
to leave the party on account, of an &C
cdent which nearly necessitated the am
putation of his foot He is now at his
home in this city under medical treat
ment.
Captain William Coffey of Ell Sueno
writes that the vessel has gone into win
ter quarters in a creek tributary to Dali
River, above Rampant City. Many of the
men have deserted the prospecting expe-
dition, but their places were easily filled.
Coffey reports the outlook as being most
encouraging and then recites how Ell Sueno
Company lost $4,000 through the alleged
treachery OF one of its members. The
company discovered a coal mine near ST.
Michaels. The property was left in
charge of one of the party while the rest
pushed forward to the Klondike country.
Coffey asserts that during the party s
absence the keeper of the coal mine sold
the property for the amount mentioned
and disappeared.

ALICE LORETTA MCCOY HAD
MARRIED JOHN CoSGRoVE.
The Fortune-Hunter Says That She
Has Never Obtained Divorce,
but BE Will Now Bring

Oakland Office San Francisco Call

90S Broadway Nov. II.
An irate husband, who obstinately re-
fused to disclose his name, which, how
ever. is supposed to be Mccoy, called at
the County Clerks Office to-day. He Gre
ated a sensation which. though small IN
its incipiency, is likely to develop into one
of considerable magnitude.
He asked to be allowed to inspect the
record of marriage licenses issued in 1872.
This was shown him, and when he came
upon the names of Alice Loretta Mccoy
and John CosgroVe, both aged p years
and residents of San Francisco, to whom
a license had been issued on August ~,
1892 his anger knew no bounds, and he
swore that he would have revenge.

of the divorce courts and found that Alice

however, show that she and CosgroVe

CONTRACT Fer The

COTTON BROTHERS FAVORED BY
THE BOARD.
Supervisor Wells Was the Only Mem
Der Who Did Not Vote for
the Award.
Oakland Office San Francisco Gail

sos Broadway, Nov. II.
The Supervisors this morning awarded
the contract for building the steel bridge
across the estuary to Cotton Bros. for
$92, 800.
District Attorney Cook suggested to the
board that in the motion awarding the
contract they incorporate the fact that
they had rejected the bid of the Schmidt
Construction Company for good and suffi-
Client reasons. Mr.. Shook advised that the
board was not bound to award the con-
tract to the lowest bidder. and having re-
jected any bid could award it 10 the next
responsible bidder
Engineer Campbell representing the
Schmidt Company, asked if the District
Attorney meant that the board must file
specific charges against the Schmidt Com
pany. Supervisor Wells said that it had
not been shown that the company was not
responsible, and he understood the MEM
beTS had lots Of money and had a plant
Supervisor Mitchell differed from Wells,
and Supervisor Roe1h agreed with Mitch
ell. Supervisor Church moved that the
contract be awarded to the lowest respon-
sible bidder, Cotton Bros. In seconding
the motion Mr.. Mitchell said: Il am in
favor of awarding this contract to Cotton
Bros. because they are undoubtedly a gen
ulne Oakland concern. A few days agu
asked Mr.. Cotton what the chances We're

said that the JudSon Iron Works would
give DID as low as any Eastern house,
and would certainly have the preference.
L was not satisfied, and went to the iron
works. and was told that If Cotton Bros.
secured the contact the Judson Company
would probably get the work of making
the bridge 1t has been said that Cotton
Bros. have preference in this Board of
supervisors. l do not mind saying that

Would Like to Name
the Chaplain.
BRINGS OUT DR.. PERRY
WHY THE LITTLE TOWN HAS A
RIGHT TO ASK.
It Is Said That No Presbyterian
Minister Has Ever Opened the
State Legislature.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call,

90S Broadway, Nov. II.
San Leandro has been heard from. This
little town, which so Hospitality received
the Republican county convention a cou-
pie of months ago, has become somewhat
ambitious, 1t has a candidate for State
honors. 1t is true that its ambition does
not reach the gubernatorial chair, or even
a permanent deputyship in any State Of
fee, but it would like to name the man
who shall pray at the opening of the ses-
sons of the next Legislature
San Leandro's claim is not without
some foundation. Certainly no other
place in Alameda undertakes to receive
political gatherings as Hospitality as San
Leandro. At the county convention where
all the Republican candidates recently
successful were nominated San Leandro
earned the gratitude of all assembled
there. Banquets, music, free hall and the
daintieSt of service at church luncheonS
and similar little attentions were show
cred generously, and now San Leandro
wants her reward.
Rev. Barton w. Perry, DID, is the
gentleman put forward as a candidate for
the chaplain of the Legislature. DR..
Perry is no stranger to Republicans in
entertainment committee of the now ia
nous convention, DR.. Perry made a last
ing reputation. To him as much as to
any one man was due the success of the
arrangements at San Leandro, and the
fact that minister of the gospel was
| selected to preside over the entertainment
committee at a Republican convention
| justifies the claim of San Leandrans that
! Rev. DR.. Perry was the mascot of the
! party in the banner county.
DR.. Perry is pastor of the Presbyterian
! church, and has always acted in the in
terests of the Republican party. with as
much effort as the dignity of his cloth
would permit. Some one has suggested
| that it is doubtful if ever the Presbyter-
| ians most of whom are said to be Re-
| publicans, had the honor of seeing one of
their creed supplicate for a California
Legislature At the last Legislature the
chaplain was Rev. Charles H. Oehler, an
| Evangelical Lutheran, and no one re-
members that Presbyterian ever held
! the office.
| Dr. Perry has the solid support Of the
| party in this county, including DR.. Par
| dee, Joe Herscher, president of the Gage
| and Neff Club in San Leandro; j. L. Bar
beiro, president of the Portuguese Repub-
Hcan Club.
The doctors speech at the San Leandro
| convention, welcoming the delegates, was
a masterpiece and is yet remembered. He
| is not lacking in ecclesiastical talent For
| two years he was the editor of the organ
! of his creed on this coast.
