INSISTS ON APPOINTMENT
OF DOLAN AS PATROLMAN
Civil Service Board Finds Charges
Against Eligible Are Not Sus-
tanned by Police Record.

The appointment of M. ]. Dolan as
patrolman by the Police Commission
was made last Tuesday night because
the Civil Service Commission insisted
that it should be made. The Police
Commission had at first refused to ac-
cept Dolan from the eligible list on
the ground that he had been in some
trouble fourteen years ago.
The Civil Service Commission asked
for a history of the case and the Po-
lice Commission submitted from the
police records that Dolan had been ar
rested in 1890 for assaulting an old
man, but the case was dismissed on
motion of the District Attorney.
Dolan was tried on charge OF per-
Jury growing out of the assault case,
but he was acquitted of the charge by
a jury. The Civil Service Commission
notified the Police Commission that in
the face of the record it could not ap-
prove of the refusal to appoint Dolan-
The Police Commission accepted the
dictum of the Civil Service Commis-
sion and appointed Dolan.

UNKNOWN PARK SUICIDE
NOT CHARLES b. HADLEY
Carrie Dixon Visits Morgue Expecting
TO Find Body of Nora FuIler's
Supposed Murderer,

Just before the body of the man
who committed suicide In Golden
Gate Park Saturday afternoon was re-
moved from the Morgue yesterday af-
ternoon a woman called and viewed
the remains, but would not give her
name or say that she recognized the
dead man. The visitor was recognized
as Carrie Dixon, the woman who fig
ured in the Nora Fuller case as the
friend of Charles B. Hadley, who was
suspected of having committed the
sensational murder more than two
years ago. The fact of the Dixon
woman's refusing to give her name or
say anything after she had viewed the
remains gave rise to the rumor that
she had identified the remains of the
suicide as her former companion,
Hadley.
From a pawn ticket found in the
pocket of the dead man it is supposed
his name was l.. ]. Hanley, but that
fact has not been established. The
suicide was a younger man than
Hadley and had light brown hair,
while the fugitive has dark hair mixed
with gray The body has been turned
over to the city undertaken for
burial.

BABES SELDOM

Neglect of Drunken Parents
Makes Little Children
Look Gaunt as Skeletons
MOTHER INSTINCT DEAD
Mrs. Proctor Says of Child:
"Let Her Die, There Is No
Chance for Her Anyhow"

More brutal than pages of Zola and
more touching than any Dickens story
of neglected children is the history of
the three little Proctors, Gladys, aged
s; Edith, aged 4, and Georgia. aged %
months. For two years they have been
cooped in a wretched hovel at 260 Ship
ley street, starved, neglected and for
days entirely forgotten by their be-
sotted parents.
Sometimes neighbors, who scarcely
eked out an existence themselves,
would carry food to the babies. some
times the irresponsible parents would
be sober for a few days and the little
ones would be given a few morsels of
stale bread soaked in water. but often
they would cry themselves to sleep
with gaunt hunger gnawing at their
vitals.
The case was brought under the no
tice of the California Society for the
Prevention of Cruelty to Children
about month ago. Secretary White
sent DR.. Howard and Miss Lucy Fisher
to investigate. They found the elder
daughter, Gladys, almost in the last
stages of consumption and the other
two children naked, unkempt and un-
dersized from the effects of slow star
walton.
Secretary White tried to awake any
spark of the maternal instinct that
might be in Mrs Mary Proctor. the
mother. He begged, pleaded and threat
ened, but to no avail. Miss Fisher
made daily visits to the hovel with
nourishment and medicines for the
babies for one entire month. All that
time the wretched mother was in vari
Gus stages of intoxication.
Let her alone" she often remarked
of her eldest child, Gladys; she's got
consumption and she'll die anyhow"
For some weeks Miss Fisher tried to
bring back to the creature some realiz-
alton of a mothers duties, but drink
had made her less responsible than an
animal.
AS a last resort Miss Fisher applied
to the police and Mary Proctor was ar
rested on Tuesday. When Judge Con-
Ian heard the charges and saw photo
graphs of the babies-gaunt, hollow
eyed and more pitiful than pictures
from any famine country-he express
ed regret that the maximum sentence
for such an inhuman offense was only
six months in the County Jail.
The father, Charles Proctor, a strik-
ing stableman, was sentenced yester-
day by Judge Mogan TO the same term
of Imprisonment. The society will ap
ply for guardianship papers over the
three children. Already the little ones
are gaining flesh under the care of the
Associated Charities and wondering
how they came to fall into such a par
adise. DIR. Howard thinks that there Is
hope even for Gladys, now that she
will receive proper nourishment and
can see the sunshine occasionally.

LOSES WALLET
And BANKNOTES
John Silverstein Is Minus
Nine Hundred Dollars as
He Leaves for Germany

John Silverstein. who has been resid-
ing at the ST. Paul House at 463 Ellis
street for the last four months, was
going to his old home in Germany yes
terday with 1925 in his inside pocket.
but when he went to the ferry to check
his trunk to New York he discovered
that his money was missing. He had
paid for his ticket on the steamer and
also for his transportation to New
York. The latter ticket he had with
him, but his steamer ticket was in
wallet which he had had in his inside
pocket when he got up in the morn
ing.
Just as Silverstein discovered his loss
he was called to the telephone at the
ferry baggage room and notified that
his wallet had been found at the st.
Paul House. Highly elated, Silverstein
returned to the st. Paul, but when the
wallet was given him he found that
his money was gone.
Silverstein arose early yesterday
morning and was considerably excited
over his contemplated trip. He packed
his trunk hurriedly and was anxious
for the expressman to come and take
it away. A short time after he left
the hotel William Stulz, who attends
to the elevator during the night, found
a wallet under the front door mat
while sweeping, and upon investigation
discovered Silverstein's ticket to Ger
many therein. Stulz knew that Sill
verstein was at the depot and at once
called him up on the telephone.
When the purse was handed to Sill
verstein upon his return to the hotel
he discovered his loss and accused the
Japanese servant of having extracted
the money. The matter was reported
to the police and Detective Wren was
detailed on the case. Stulz and K.
Wanda, the Japanese servant, were
taken to the police station, but after
being questioned by Chief Whitman
were released, as Silverstein would not
swear out a warrant.
The general supposition Is that Sill
verstein dropped his wallet while going
through the hall and that some Of the
roomers found it, extracted the money
and placed the wallet, with the ticket,
under the mat. The money consisted OF
$500 in 500 bills and $125 in smaller de-
nominations.
Silverstein has delayed his departure
for Germany and in the meantime the
police are working on the case. Sill
verstein formerly conducted an adver-
Using and loan business at 116 Meal /
lister street.

Professor Meade Of the Weather Bu-
reau watched the wireless telegraphy
experiments of the military authorities
at their stations on Alcatraz and at
the Preside and decided that he could
do better himself. He secured an ap-
preparation and installed a system be-
tween Point Reyes and the Farallones.
The experiment met with success and
Secretary Wilson Of the Department Of
Agriculture was highly elated. Nc
Adie received numerous congratulatory
kilograms and when he asked for an
ether appropriation his request was
granted. At present he is working
hard on the system and is making
much progress.
The navy had had a mast on Goat
Island and another at Point Bonita,
but after many months Of labor the
only means of communication was by
mail Then McAdie's success was an
nounced and the Navy Department Sc
cured an appropriation for the estab
lishment Of station on the Farallones.
Since then the Goat Island station has
proved effective in communicating with
ships at sea-
The navy uses the Slaby-Arco system,
which is the method approved by the
German Government. The Weather
Bureau system is similar TO that en-
ployed by Marconi. Both departments
will soon be sending wireless messages
10 and from the Farallones and all
kinds Of official secrets will be made
known. The Weather Bureau Will know
when the Pacific squadron gets its or
ders 70 attack the Afghanistan navy
and Admiral Dewey will discover in
January what the prospects of rain
may be for the Farallones in June.

Suit for possession Of various securi-
ties valued at $63,950 and $4,000 dam
ages for the wrongful Withholding
thereof was brought in the Superior
Court yesterday by Elizabeth G. Mes
ser through her attorneys. Samuel M.
Shortridge and Robert B. Mcmillan.
The defendant is Thomas r. Hayes,
formerly manager for Main & Win
chester, and father of Charles E.
Hayes, deceased. The plaintiff alleges
that on March "a, 1903, the defendant.
without her consent, took possession of
the property in question and when she
demanded it from him on July last
he refused to give it up.
These securities are alleged to have
been decided by Charles E. Hayes, son
of the defendant, to Mrs. Messer short
ly prior to Hayes Jr.'s death, caused
by a fall from a buggy on March %.
Young Hayes was riding with Mrs.
James O'Connell, daughter of Con-
gressman Loud, through Golden Gate
Park at midnight. The vehicle was
overturned and Hayes was fatally in
jured.
Besides the property which Mrs. Mes.
ser demands, she received $40, 900 on an
insurance policy which young Hayes
had secured in her favor. She was to
have married him in September, 1903.
Mrs. Messer was formerly the wife OF
Nat 7. Messer, the stock broker.
The securities named are: Five hun
dred and twenty shares in the Port
land Cement Company, 800 Tonopah
Consolidated Mining Company, 1000 To-
nopah Light and Power Company. 150,-
100 shares of 1901 Oil Company and four
bonds of the Standard Portland Ce-
ment Company, valued at $1,000 each
All these are alleged to have been
decided to Mrs. Messer by the younger
Hayes as tokens of his affection for
her. The father of the unfortunate
young bon vivant took possession of all
his sons effects. When Mrs Messer
applied to him for the securities which
the son held in trust for her, Thomas
B. Hayes gave her some non-negotiabl BILE
bonds which were in her own name
The securities demanded are said to
have been inclosed in an envelope
which bore Mrs. Messer's name. These
were negotiable and Hayes refused to
turn them over.
Mrs. Messer says she waited until
July of the present year, believing
that Hayes would ultimately deliver
the property. Then she made a per-
emptory demand, which was refused.
and suit was instituted. Hayes is not
in town.

JUSTICE TAKES
QUICKER STEPS
Decisions Are Being Handed
Down at a Rapid Rate by
the State Supreme Court
CLERKS WORK OVERTIME
Plan Is Formed to Relieve
Situation by Establishing
an Additional Tribunal

It is an assured fact that the Su-
preme Court has been inoculated with
the germ of industry. The rate at
which decisions are being ground out
Of the interior offices on the top floor
Of the Parrott building is a marvel to
jurists. Last year the court was six
months behind; this year it is two
months behind. There has been moth
ing like it in California Jurisprudence
in the last decade.
If this celerity is maintained liti-
gants may yet live to see final decisions
in cases that they themselves have
instituted. Heretofore men have gen
orally had to leave their litigation as
a legacy to heirs, who have in turn
helped the struggling legal fraternity
to keep its feet and passed on.
The law says that decisions must be
rendered within ninety days Of the
time the cases are submitted or the
Justices cannot collect their salaries
of $500 a month each. For years the
jurists have been collecting their Janu
airy pay in August and when they re-
tired they had money coming until
they could get a case.
But there has been an innovation.
The decisions come down so fast that
the secretaries can only take short va
cations and there is enough work in
the clerks Office to keep the deputies
working overtime.
In some of the Eastern States liti-
cation can be commenced in the Supe-
rior Court and ended in the Supreme
case in this State often lasts three
years. The Supreme Court, however,
has an unusually heavy July calendar
and the secretaries fear that there will
be further arrears in salaries by Sep
tember.
The solution OF the difficulty is the
establishment of an appellate court and
the people Of the State will be called
upon TO sanction this proposed new
tribunal next year, 1T is said.

Hun,s VIII Is Contested.

Alice Maud HUFF, sister Of Harry S.
Huff, who died January 19 last, yes
ferday filed a contest TO his will. which
was admitted TO probate on January
21. Revilo S. Huff, a brother, was
named in the will as executor and sole
legatee. Another brother, Charles c.
Huff, is an heir at law.
The sister contends that at the time
OF making his will, September II,
1903, Harry HUFF was weak in mind
and body and subject to the influence
OF his brother. She further declares
that he did not sign the will in ques-
ton. The estate is worth only 1887
and the chief asset is an ark of five
rooms in San Francisco Bay, worth
$1,000.
Harry Huff was once a Chinese in
terpreter in the Federal Court and it
was supposed that his accumulated
wealth was much greater than the sum
set forth in the inventory of his estate.
