Q0S Rroadway Sent IA

The question of who is the proprietor of
patent corset has led to the disruption
of a firm and to the issuance of search
warrant by Judge Allen. The corset in dis
pute is a clever arrangement, hard to I'M
derstand and harder to describe, but
which it's inventor. Mrs. Vermilyea, de-
clares is worth a small fortune to her. She
has also sworn that the constitution of
this particular corset, which it has taken
her years to perfect, has been stolen by a
Mr.. Benedict, who. was for some time her
partner. There is also a romance con-
nected with this dispute over the corset.
prosperous maker of corsets in Toronto,
Canada. The Canadian ladies took a
great fancy for the particular ideas that
Mrs. Vermilyea put into her corsets, and
she needed the services of sixty girls to
turn them out fast enough. At this time
Mr.. Benedict became acquainted with the
fair corset maker, and after she came to
California Mr.. Benedict appeared in Oak
land and the acquaintanceship was re-
newed. She had money and started the
business and Mr.. Benedict became q part

Benedict, 1t is said, told the medium that
MS interest IN MIS-. Nermllyea was purely
a financial one. although he believed she
was laboring under the delusion that he
was in love with her and intended to mar

A few days ago Mrs. Vermilyea discov-
cred that her late partner was infringing
on her patent. He had engaged some OF

his own account. This brought Mrs Yer

silk, some corsets and various trinkets
and that she wished to recover them. She
was given a search warrant, and with De-

BIDS FOR NEW CENTRAL STA

1.-THE Supervisors will retrench this year
In many directions" remarked Supervisor
Britt yesterday. 'Chief Sullivan of the
Fire Department says that notwithstand-
ing the fact that $4,000 less is asked for
by his department this year than was
awarded last year, there will be no op-
position to a still further reduction in
case 1t becomes necessary in order to keep
the tax levy down to a reasonably low
figure. The Committee on Fire and Po-
lice, Of which 1 am chairman, has TO-
day passed the consideration of the bids
for placing a central fire alarm station
In the City Hall dome. The matter was
laid over in order to see whether or not
we can afford to go ahead with the i'm
provement this year 1t seems probable
that the project will be dropped for the
present"
Supervisor Delany was not so sure that
the citizens demanded a low tax rate.
How are we going to do all that the i'm
provement clubs demand If we do not
raise the money!" he asked
Mayor Phelan said the whole list of
proposed improvements Gould go over
until some future time. There really does
not seem to be sufficient necessity for
permanent building operations just now,
when the day is so near at hand when
bonds can be issued for new construc-
tons. Under the new charter the city
will be permitted to bond itself for 10 pei
cent of the realty value, or about $50, :
900. This sum will be sufficient to pro-
vide for the City and County Hospital,
the Mission Zoo. new police station.
etc. However, / think that the first con-
sheraton after bonds are issuable is to
expend $40, 900 in securing a city wa
ter plant, bringing the supply from the
Sierra Nevada Mountains. and then we
can we'll spend 900 more for a city
lighting plant After these items are
provided for there will still be $50 900 900
left for new buildings, parks and other
permanent improvements We can afford
to wait until 1900 for these things"

A N0NSUIT MOTION DENIED
ACCUSED ATTORNEY TRIES TO
JUSTIFY HIMSELF.
Oakland Office San Francisco Cali,


Judge Hall to-day denied the motion of
Judge Murphy for a nonsuit in the dis
barment proceedings against Joseph
Hutchinson brought by H. L. Beatty and
George II. Francoeur.
Respondents attorney offered the mo-
ton on the ground that petitioners had
failed to prove that Hutchinson knew the
charges to be false that he made in Mrs.
Gertrude Jones answer to the suit of
Francoeur for recovery of $500 on
a note. In denying ire motion
Judge Hall remarked that there were
certainly matters that Hutchinson knew
to be false, and these he would have to
explain.
He ought to have known upon reason
able inquiry what kind of a man Jones
was" said Judge Hall. HE was spend
ing thousands of dollars to defend How
ard and Hulda Johnson. and yet he goes
formed a conspiracy to defraud Mrs.
Jones'"
This morning Witness H. L. Beatty de-
clared that E. Norwood Jones was guilty
dial only in that he furnished her money
to procure medical aid, and he reiterated
his belief that Jack Howard was the
Walter Kellogg, who has. charge of the
Jones, testified that Jones came to him
TOT money IN january, 1871, saying tnat
he was liable to be arrested for murder
and that he would need funds. BY way
Of explanation Jones told him that his
servant girl had died and he. was being
connected with 1t. Jones told him he had
given Hulda Johnson 800 out of pure sym
pathy, and ever since that time he had
been the subject of blackmail. He wanted
money to hush the publication of the
story, and If it leaked out to defend him
self.
Hutchinson was called to the stand in
his own behalf this afternoon. He ex-
planned that he was one of the executors
of the Kellogg estate and as such. to-
gether with Walter Kellogg, signed all
checks for money out of the estate or
paid out by Mrs. Jones, one of the leg
atees. He averred that in May, 1857,
FIancoeur showed him note for $500
which Francoeur claimed was for attor-
neys' fees in defending Howard, and had
asked him If the signature of Mrs. Jones
was genuine Hutchinson had immedi-
ately questioned its validity, saying that
he would give his reasons for this opinion
at the proper time. Furthermore that It
was afterward found Francoeur and Beat
ty had charged double the fee they had
agreed upon.
