COLLINS WANTS
HUTTQN'S SCALP
Adopts Various Methods to
Have Police Commissions
er Removed From Office
ASKS GRAND JURY'S AID
Will Prefer Charges Next
Week Before Mayor to I'm
pugn Defendants Morals

Attorney George d. Collins is taking
advantage of all legal methods to re-
move from office Police Commissioner H.
w. Hutton, special Chief of Police for
1929 Dupont street, now that Hutton
has been adjudged guilty of contempt
of court by Judge Cook for violating
the Injunction to restrain the police
from interfering with the restaurant
business of Jean Pom and fined $500 for
the contempt. Hrt :.
Yesterday Collins appeared before
Presiding Judge Lawlof> and procured
from the Judge an order citing Hutton
to appear before him on October 6 to
answer the accusation filed against him
on Tuesday afternoon for iQstructing
Policemen Barry and, Fennel1 to arrest
Mary Duran, on June after she had
left Pon,s restaurant. The accusation
is made under section .772 offthe Penal
Code, which gives the Judge power to
remove Hutton from office if the accus-
ALTON is sustained and enter Judgment
Of $500 in favor Of the informer.
+. Collins says he is preparing a COM
munication to the Grand Jury asking
that body for an indictment to remove
Hutton from Office under. section 758 Of
the Penal. Code, which, provides that
IAN accusation lin writing against any
district, county, township or munich
pal officer for willful or corrupt mis-
conduct in office may be presented by
the Grand Jury Of the county for or in
which the officer accused is elected or
appointed"
A suit will soon be- instituted by Col
Inns to enjoin the City Treasurer from
paying any salary to Hutton in virtue
of section 10, article 16 of the charter,
which provides that, IAN office becomes
vacant when the incumbent Is con-
victed of an offense involving viola
ton Of his official duties"
Besides these statutory proceedings,
Collins says he will file charges with
the Mayor, asking for Hutton's remov-
al from office because Of his immoral
ity. This. he says will be done within
a week

MAYOR DENIES THAT HE
PLANS TO GUST HUTTON
Pronounces False Report That He
Intends to Appoint G. 5H. Hilbert
Police Commissioners,


Mayor Schmitz last evening pro-
nounced as absolutely false the pub
lished report that he will GUST Police
Commissioner Hutton from Office ow-
ing to the latter having been found
guilty of contempt of court and ap-
point G. H Hilbert, president of the
Hilbert Mercantile Company, in Hut
tons place. 1t was also stated in the
article that Attorney George d. Col
Inns would take steps TO have Hutton
dismissed under Eharter provision.
Mayor Schmitz said:
The story is untrue as all the others re-
hecting upon me and my administration that
have appeared recently in evening paper.
I have given the matter no consideration what
ever and the fact that Hutton has been adj
Judged guilty Of contempt has not been brought
officially to my notice as yet. - l have not
given the matter of Hinton removal or the
story was manufactured out Of whole cloth,
as 1 was not interviewed at all on the sub
ject. @
Asked as to whether he would
take advantage of section 10, article
16 Of the charter, which provides that
an office becomes vacant when the in
cumbent is convicted of a felony or
of an offense involving a violation of
his official duties, the Mayor said:
do not care to say whether / will take
such advantage or not. OF course, II Mr..
Hutton has violated his official duties his
office becomes vacant without any action on
my part. and I would simply appoint his
successor. But. as 1 have said, 1 have not
considered the matter at all and the mind
readers who have concocted their tale have
absolutely no foundation for II.

OCEAN VIEW NEIGHBORS QUARREL
AND EXPLAIN DISPUTE IN COURT
By Shutting Off the Wells FamiIy's Pure
Water Supply Andrew Douglas Tries to
Help His Mother-in-Law in Her Crusade

Charles Jones, railroad man, de-
clared that his acquaintance with Miss
Bessie Henry was of such recent for
nation and so merely casual that he
considered her hint that he take her to
dinner an impertinence. 1t was at
Suffer street and Grant avenue he met
her for the first time, he averred, and
ere they had been engaged in, CONVEX
sation three minutes she abruptly eX-
pressed an inclination to dine at, his
expense. He tried to ignore the sug-
Sestion, but she would not allow him
to do so, and finally, when he told her
point blank that he regarded her in
sistence as bad form, she scolded him
with such vehemence as to attract a
crowd and visit upon him great hui
initiation of spirit. "Stingy' was the
least offensive of the adjectives she
used.
Patrolman L. ]. Larkin heard por-
ton Of Miss Henry's denunciatory ora
ton and to Judge Mogan he pro-
nounced it pretty tough talk" Then
Mr.. Jones remarked that never in sall
his life had he listened to, much less
been made the subject of such a
bunch of language"
Miss Henry will tell her side Of the
story tomorrow.
Ella Johnson, the 16-year-Old girl,
whose mother had her arrested for
waywardness because she attended a
party given by one Leslie Falkenburg
in celebration of his release from
prison, was turned over to the custody
of Secretary White Of the Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Children.
To plead for her release there appear
ed in Judge MOgans court the parents
of Leslie Falkenburg and they were
roundly censured by his Honor for en-
couraging the girls attentions to their
son.
II am informed" said the Judge,
that you escorted this young girl to
the prison in which your son was serv-
ing six months sentence for having
cruelty ill-treated the mother of his
two illegitimate children, and that you
have been partly instrumental in caus-
ing the estrangement between the girl
and her mother. Your appearance
here 1 consider extremely impudent
and I would advise you to go home
and attend to the proper training of
your own children"
Little Miss Johnson will probably be
consigned to st. GATHERINGS Home.

STOCK BROKER WALLS
AND WIFE FILE ANSWER
Deny Stephen Otis Charges Of Fraud
and Cast Reflections on Honor
of Court

Separate answers to the suit of
Stephen Otis to collect judgment of
1857 so from John A. Walls were
filed yesterday by Emma G. Walls,
John A. Walls and the Central Grain
and Stock Exchange. In December,
1896, Walls, chief clerk Of the Stock
Exchange, gave Otis his note for
S1O77 70 involving a stock deal. Otis
sued and got judgment, though Walls
pleaded that it was a gambling debt.
When attempt was made to collect it
was found that Walls had no prop
erty. Mrs. Walls, however, was the
owner of BIS shares of stock in the
Central Exchange, which was given
her by its president, W. e. Baines.
Since May, 1900, when the gift was
made, Mrs. Walls has received SAL
600 in dividends on the securities.
Otis got permission from the court
to sue Mrs. Walls, alleging that the
stock had been issued in her name in
her husbands interest and in order to
defraud his creditors. The defend
ants all deny this allegation and say
that Mrs. Walls is the separate owner
of the stock and its profits. Walls ad-
lnits that his wife paid nothing for her
holdings. He says he has nothing to
do with the shares or the money and
only receives $3.50 a month salary in
his position.
Walls also charges that the judg-
ment against him, rendered in Depart
ment II of the Superior Court, is
fraudulent because the court arbitrar-
lily struck out his answer and refused
to hear his witnesses. He says. too.
that in furtherance of its determine
ton to deprive him of a fair trial, the
court refused to allow his bills of ex-
ceptions and a statement of the case
on appeal He asks that the Judgment
be vacated.

Asks Exemption From Taxation.

It is expected that there will be an
amendment to the constitution sub
mitted to the voters at the next cleo
ton, providing for the exempting

payment of $1,000 a year taxes i'm

bers and friends of the society by c..
