About Fairfax Wheelan

Asserts an Attempt Is Made
to Impress Jury That Wit
ness Is Not Telling Truth

The prosecution closed its case yester-
day afternoon against Joseph Rebstock.
indicted for violation of the election law
precinct. While Fred Hancock, the first
witness for the defense. was testifying.
Attorney OGrady rose in his wrath and
said that Fairfax H. Wheelan was max
ing noises with his mouth and shaking
his head so as to impress the jury with
the fact that the witness was not telling
the truth The Judge said 1t was wrong
for Wheelan to do that. and O'Grady
said he would file affidavits in the morn
ing bearing out his statement.
WILDER C. Knox, Fairfax H. WheeIan
and Albert z. Whitney testified to votes
being challenged and to Rebstock's re-
fUsal to administer the oath. They also
testified to the vile language used by
Rebstock. Wheelan said that Rebstock
had remarked that they could send him
to the States prison if they liked. but he
would not administer the OATH When a
challenge was made as to an inmate OF
the Almshouse. Rebstock would say,
"Oh, -, he'll vote, anyway"
Attorney Newburg, in his opening
statement for the defense, asserted he
would prove that there was a conspiracy
on the part of Wheelan, HAZEL and
Fitzgerald to prevent inmates ia the
Almshouse from voting. The defendant
was employed in the Street-sweeping De-
partment by Mayor Schmitz. and therein
lay ''the milk OF the cocoanut-" The de-
PENDANT had been so harassed and an
noyed by so many challenges that he
might have used strong language. He
would also prove that the challenges
were not properly made.
Fred Hancock, janitor at the Mer-
chants Exchange, was the first witness
for the defense He was one OF the
judges at the Almshouse booth and re-
manned from the opening Of the polls Till
the votes were counted. He declared
that Rebstock was administering the
oath all the time. His examination was
not concluded when court adjourned till
this morning.

Public Works, was an interested specta-

ARTIST DIES
WARD OF CITY
Mrs. Cecil Romer Expires in
County Hospital, Where
She Was Left by Brother
SECRETS DIE WITH HER
Nanny Peasants Devisees
Looked Upon Her as I'M
portant Witness for Them
SECRETS DIE WITH HER

Mrs. Cecil Romer. who was promi-
nent as an artist and also one Of the
principal witnesses relied upon by L.
M. Sherwood and his wife, proponents
of the will of the late Nanny
visees, died yesterday at the City and
County Hospital.
Though she passed away at charity
institution, Mrs. Romer had a brother
in Los Angeles, Colonel Edwin r. Fox.
a mining man, who is reputed to be
wealthy. He was here at the time his
sister was sent to the hospital and left
her in that institution when he re-
turned to Los Angeles
That which Mrs. Romer would have
told in the hearing of the Nanny"
Pleasant will case will perhaps now
never be known. The artist had told
Sherwood and his wife, SO it is said,
that she would have something i'm
portant to say on the stand. She had
lived for years at AL Point Lobos ave-
nue. Above her lived Mrs. A J. Street.
To Mrs. Street she. said that Nanny"
Pleasant had been IN the habit of COM
ing to her rooms, stuffing the keyhole
In the door with cotton and dictatin g
TO her for hours. almost in a whisper.
The secret of what she wrote for this
mysterious negress who cast her weird
spell over a wealthy white family has
probably died with her.
Colonel Fox took nearly all of his
sisters effects with him to Los An
geles saying he was going to fit her
up studio there with her original be-
longings. Mrs. Street says he men
toned finding among the effects eight
deeds that he could not understand"
It is thought these deeds may have come
from Nanny Pleasant.
Mrs. Romer had estranged herself
from her relatives, being eccentric, and
she had not seen her brother for fif-
teen years prior to April IS, when he
arrived here. She had two sisters. one
a clerk in the pension Office at Wash
ington, the other private secretary for
a wealthy woman.
Mrs. Romer was born in New York
and was 65 years old. Her parents
were Southern people.
