aces of Entire State.

The first meeting of the State Pub
licity Committee appointed at the con-
ference of State development associa-

ifornia."
This is the first movement among
the many development associations of

will also be lectures at these offices

is the placing of the California prod
ucts in Eastern markets and to get in
touch with all manufacturers whose
business can be established in any
part of this State.
Among the representatives present
were Rufus p. Jennings San Francis

ty; Morris Brooke, Sacramento, repre-
senting Sacramento Valley counties;

Jury to Try Man Accused of
the Murder of Mrs. Annie
Wilson Is Now Complete

The trial of Alexander B. Garnett

ing to a close before a jury in Judge
Lawlor's court. The evidence for the
defense was given yesterday and As
sjstant District Attorney Ferral con-
Guided his argument to the jury. He
will be followed this morning by At

fense and District Attorney Byington
will then close for the State.
DIR. George H. Martin was called for
the defense to testify to re-
mark Mrs. Elizabeth w. Colt was al
legged to have made in his hearing that
the shooting was accidental. This tes-
timony, however, was excluded. At
torney H. L. Creswell, William A. st.
Amant and Captain Stafford H. Par
ker gave testimony as to defendant's g
character.
The defendant testified in his own
behalf. He asserted that the shoot

Attorney Collins wanted to introduce
a transcript of the statement made
by Mrs. Colt to Coroner Leland in her
rooms in the Palace Hotel on the day
prior to the inquest but it was OBJ
! jected to by the District Attorney and
the objection was sustained.
The jury to try the case Of George T.
Querbach, charged with the murder of
Mrs. Annie Wilson at her residence, 5
Capp street, on November 1, was COM
pleted yesterday in Judge Cooks court.
The jurors are: Louis Croner, Dewitt

Patrick Riley, w. p. Wetmore, George
+. Kidder, G. Zintner, Joseph A. Stultz
and j. ]. Kreiss.
A number of witnesses were ex-
amined, but nothing new was elected
from them. The most important point
was the introduction of a letter writ
ten the day after the murder by
CHdTleS GeOISe CHlIlH 10 captain
Martin. The handwriting was identi-
fed by Expert Theodore Kytka as that
of the defendant. He wrote confessing
that he had killed Mrs. Wilson and
that the police would search for him
in vain, as he would be dead. He had
A bottle of carboIic acid in his pocket,
which he would swallow as soon as he
had finished writing the letter. He
had killed Mrs. Wilson in frenzy and
passion. She was the only woman he
had ever loved and friends had set her
mind against him. When he had gone
to her for his clothes on the day be-
fore her death she had threatened to
put a bullet through his brain.

case of Friedrich Tobelmann, charged

WANTS SHARE
IN BIG ESTATE
Retrial of Contest Against
Wickersham Will Is Be-
gun Before Judge Seawell
DISPOSITIONS ARE READ
Suit Involves Fourth Inter
est in Property Worth
Half a Million Dollars

In Judge Seawell's court yesterday
hearing was started in the retrial of the
contest begun in Sonoma County
against the will of Lydia c. Wicker
sham. The contestant is Cora L. Wick
ersham, widow of Frank Wickersham,
who before his death was political
boss at Fresno and at one time chair
man of the Board of Supervisors there.
Lydia Wickersham was the widow of
l. G. Wickersham, the Petaluma bank
er who left an estate appraised at
$650,000 Her own estate approximated
$500, 900. There were four children
Fred w. and Frank Wickersham, Mrs.
Lizzie Maclay and Mrs. May Berge-
vim.
Frank Wickersham received nothing
by his fathers WILL 1t is claimed that
1t was represented to him before his
mothers death that she had made a
will cutting him off. On this repre-
sentation, the contestant charges, he
sold his expectancy in his mothers es-
tate to his brother and sisters for $2S,-
000 The mother died in February,
1900, and when her will was produced
it was found that it gave Frank only
$50. Within a year afterward Frank
Wickersham died and his widow con-
tended that his mother had left him so
little because the old lady had been led
to believe that he had received in ad-
vance his prospective share in her es-
tate from his brother and sisters.
The suit was tried first at Santa Rosa
and decided against the contestant. A
motion for a new trial was made and
granted and from the later order an
appeal was taken to the Supreme
Court. The lower court was sustained
and the new trial has now come on be-
fore Judge Seawell.
Some of the dispositions in the case,
tending to prove that Frank Wicker
sham was of unsound mind when he
sold his interest in his prospective es-
tate, were read yesterday by Attorney
Francis K. Heney. The other side was
represented in court by j. c. Campbell
Of this city and Thomas J. Geary of
Santa Rosa.
