SAYS OFFICIAL
IS A PER)URER

Building Inspector James H. Jordan
is placed in an unenviable light by a
decision handed down by Judge Gra-
ham yesterday. Not only does the
court hold that Jordan is incompe-
tent, but finds that he deliberately
contradicted himself while under oath.
The decision in question was reached
in the suit of P. Anderson against D.
Abrams.
Anderson is a contractor and erected
an addition to q building owned by
Abrams. Observing that the addition
did not comply with the fire ordinance
the police arrested Abrams and he was
compelled to tear down the structure.
Then he refused to pay Anderson for
the work, saying there was no con-
sideration, Anderson having planned
the structure and as a contractor
should have been familiar with the fire
ordinance
In the Police Court Inspector Jordan
testified that the structure did not COM
ply with the fire ordinance and before
Judge Graham, in an effort to adjust
matters with the contractor. he swore
that 1T did comply with the ordinance.
Judge Graham holds that in fact the
structure did not comply with the fire
ordinance and that hence Anderson
could not recover. Continuing, how
ever, the court says:
Inspector Jordan in this case oc-
cupies an anomalous position. In the
Police Court he testified that the struc-
ture did not comply with the fire or
dinance and in this case he testified
that it did comply with the ordinance.
1t is evident that the inspectors knowl-
edge of the building laws is meager,
but this is no reason why he should
blow hot and cold. In view of his ac-
tion l shall not consider his testimony
in this case at all, applying the rule
that witness found to testify falsely
in one instance should be mistrusted
in ALL"

DEATH CALLS
FOR ATTORNEY
R. J. WILSON
Affliction of Heart
Ends Useful
Career.

One of San Francisco's brightest law
yers passed away last night, when the
distinguished career of Russell J. Will
son was ended. The final summons
came after years of suffering, and al
though the death Of Mr.. Wilson is a
shock to his relatives and friends, it is
not altogether unexpected.
He was native of Illinois and 81 years
Of age. He was a member of the law
firm of Wilson & Wilson, being asso-
ciated with his brother, Mountford j.
Wilson. He was g. trustee of Leland
Stanford Jr University and a man of
studious mind and great tact. He was
a personal friend of the late Senator and
Mrs. Stanford, and with his brother
handled much of the law business of
the great estate.
The immediate cause of death was
heart failure, a malady from which he
had suffered for years. He had been
at the point of death for more than a
month, and since he was stricken the
physicians held out but little hope for
his recovery. Mr.. Wilson took no
active interest in business for several
years and lived secluded life in San
Mateo County with his family.
/ At one time he was prominent in pol
itics and was secretary of the Demo-
cratic State Central Committee several
years ago. He proved an able political
leader, and during his reign Of power
was always in the midst of political
striving. For many years the attorney
was director of the Southern Pacific
Company and was widely known among
railroad men all over the country. He
was formerly a member Of the Pacific
Union Club. No arrangements have as
yet been made for the funeral.

CITY MAY TAKE SYSTEM
Board Passes Ordinance for

The Sutter Street Improvement Club
yesterday petitioned the Board of Su-
pervisors to make an investigation of
the Sutter street railroad, which is
characterized as unwarrantably bad.
The board is asked to take action TO
remedy the evil. The petition says:

The board finally passed the declara-
tory ordinance for the acquisition of
the Geary street road by the city and
it's conversion into an electric under
ground system. Supervisors Lunstedt
and Gallagher, who were not present
when the ordinance was passed TO
print. expressed themselves in favor of
the proposition. though the former held
that other public utilities, such as
water. gas and telephone service,
should be acquired first.
The board authorized an expenditure
of $500 to pay for the services of j. G.
H. Slut as engineer in revising plans
and estimates of cost of converting the
Geary street railroad into a municipal
electric road.
The Sutter Street Improvement Club
fled resolutions approving the action OF
the board which the club says will
bring about the construction of a mod
ern conduit electric system on Geapy
street.
The Civic League petitioned the Su-
pervisors that all the money that is to
be expended on permanent improve
ments next year, aside from the Geary
street road, be applied to the public
schools. The petition states that most
of the school buildings are unsafe and
unsanitary and all classes are shock
ingly overcrowded, with 1900 children
who cannot find a place in the schools.
This is a condition that will not per-
nit of delay and assumes the nature
of an emergency, the petition says.
