COUNSEL INDULGE
IN BITTER WORDS
Charles J. Heggerty and Will
liam NJ. Cannon Quarrel
i'm Court.

Your clients are blackmailers and YOU
know IT.! said Attorney Charles J. Heg-
gerty, addressing Attorney William M.
Cannon yesterday in Judge Graham s
court during the hearing of motion for
a jury trial of the William E. Smith estate
case.
Your statement is deliberate false
hood; yes, it is a malicious lie" respond
ed Cannon warmly You know it is a
lie"'
Il repeat again that you represent
blackmailersD shouted Heggerty
Order and proper bearing of counsel
must be maintained in this court" said
Judge Graham. ''and l will see that 1t is .
And he did, and nothing further was said
by counsel.
The case is one in which interest in sew
eral little vessels sailing the bay was
transferred by Smith to his widow, Marie
E. Smith. The executor of his will, John
H. Davidson, is contesting the legality of
the transfer, and Cannon's clients. George
F., A. D., William H. and Mary c. Smith
and Anna Hormege. children of the de-
ceased, have intervened, demanding a
share of decedents estate. Heggerty,
who represents the widow, claims the
children have no interest and have simply
intervened with the hope Of forcing a
compromise. His charge that they are
blackmailers means warm trial to come.

Method of Earning Salary

DR.. j. ]. Stephens system or earning

Board of Health. Thursday last Steph-
en- received a letter from the Health
Board. instructing him TO put In more
time at the hospitals and to improve
his methods of governing the same IN
stitutions. The communication was IN
peremptory words and clearly showed
the attitude of the majority OF the
Health Board toward the man IN
charge of the city's hospital service.
The number of hours that Stepnen
shall be on duty at the hospitals was
defined In the order.
Tuesday night Drs. Worth, Hughes
and Harvey. members of the Health
Board, visited the Central Emergency
Hospital and made a thorough lnvesu-
cation. They inquired particularly as
TO the frequency of the chief surgeons 8
visits, in the light of his ready dlsap-
pearance at crucial moments. ana

much time he spent at his post 70 earn
his salary of SITS a month The Health
Board members thought stephens ac-
tionS insolent and the following oay
called a meeting. With the exception or
DR.. Simon, Stephens right-hand man.
all of the board voted for the framing
of the caustic communication that was
sent him. Part of the letter read:
You will without fail be at the hos
pital between and 8 a. m, IL and IL
a. m. and 4 and D. m, and endeavor
to govern your actions more In keep
ing with the position which you are

The wrath of the man who openly
boasts that "Ruef will stand by him
was great. His visits TO the Central
Emergency Hospital wore a beaten
path in the hard pavement. Yesterday
he reinaugurated the register system,
which was started with such dismal
failure some months ago after HIS first

chained to the telephone stephen enters
his arrival and departure at the hos
pital. and compels the surgeons TO do
likewise. When the time served seems
unduly short he inserts an explanatory
note, explaining his movements during
the time when he should have been on
duty.
The Health Board is said to be try
ing to oust Stephen and put in his place
a man more to its liking

F|CKERT WILL
co VERY soon
Q. s. District Attorney
Demands His Withdrawal
From His Present Office
FRIENDLY WITH BARD
Ben Mckinley Is ON the
Slate to Retire Into
ReStful Private Life

Charles NJ Fickert, Third Assistant
United States Attorney, has been re-
Quested to tender his resignation. He
declines TO do so. He has informed
United States District Attorney Robert
T. Devlin, who made the demand that
he would tender his resignation If the
demand were made upon political
grounds. but not otherwise.
Ever since the retirement OF United
States Senator Bard, Fickert has been
persona non grata on political grounds.
He was appointed by the Attorney Cen
eral and United States District Attor-
ney Marshall B. Woodwork on the rec
ommendation of Senator Bard, Profess
sor David Starr Jordan and Benjamin
Ide Wheeler. Woodwork, by reason of
having antagonized the party admins
tration because of his advocacy of the
reelection of Senator Bard as against
the election of Senator Flint, the choice
OF the party leaders in this State, was
slated for dismissal at the close of his
term. Fickert, being l.. the same
canoe, was also placed on the slate In
big capitals as a 'has-been" and 1t was
an open secret that when Devlin should
assume Office Fickert would be placed
on the creased ways preparatory to be-
ing launched into the cold cold world.
The climax was reached when the
jury that tried Cress Unger for embez-
u.
hour thereafter Devlin and Fickert had
heart to heart talk in the District At
torney's office. .Devlin complained that
Ffckert's mismanagement of the trial
was responsible for the miscarriage Of
justice. Fickert retorted by accusing
Devlin of having 'butted in" and
spoiled the case for the Government by
preventing Fickert from asking GER
tain questions and going into certain
features Of fha Than
the political gossips. that Devlin de-
manded his assistants resignation.
Fickert declined to hand 1t in on that
ground, but offered to do so should II
be requested solely on the ground Of
political expediency He refused to
resign under fire or under the imputa-
tion that he had mismanaged the Unger
case. He is spending vacation with
his bride on his fathers ranch near
Bakersfield. Devlin-is on q vacation in
the Yosemite Valley. 1t IS believed
that before the courts resume their sit
tings after vacation Fickert will be re-
moved and his successor appointed
Second Assistant District Attorney
Ben l. Mckinley is also said to be
slated for removal. He was originally
appointed at the request of his cousin,
President Mckinley, but that the Nc
kinney influence has been worn out was
evidenced a few months ago when Ben
father, BENJAMIN F Mckinley, the Presi-
dents uncle, was disrated from the
choice and well paid position of assist
ant postmaster in, this city to that of
position involving more work and
much less pay.

half of Judge Coffey in the Supreme
Court the statement is made that Tom
