appearance. He had been boarding

in-law, at S57 East Twenty-first street
On February Costa left the house to
go downtown. He was expected back
that evening, but did not return. Moth
ing was heard from the missing man.

that filled a little gully and saw the
body. They summoned the police

ters to the Castro residence. He was

WHIST CLUB MEMBERS
SAY YOELL WAS SANE
Prominent Witnesses Testify for Pro-
ponents i'm VIII COntest-Mrs.
SCUlly's Notes


Among the several witnesses put on
Yesterday in behalf of the proponents
In the Yoell will contest were two
prominent members of the San Fran
cisco Whist Club, who were of the
opinion that the departed attorney was
of sound mind. though eccentric. One
of these was Colonel J. J. Tobin, who
knew Yoell for a dozen years before
his death and considered him thor
orghly sane. The other, Frank Jaynes,
general superintendent Of the West
ern Union, said: Il thought him
very singular but never doubted his
sanity. He was eccentric, excitable,
eXacting and somewhat disagreeabIe. ;"
Attorney Delmas, for the apparent
purpose of impeaching the testimony
Of John H. Yoell, son of the deceased,
called Mary A. Welch Scully Of San
jose. The present Mrs. Scully is the
widow of one Welch who had John
Yoen as an attorney. She detailed
the circumstances of certain notes in
which young Yoell had an interest,
eliminating in her declaration to the
elder Yoell that his son had robbed
her. She said that the father told
the son that he ought to be in the
penitentiary for robbing a widow and
orphans. On cross-examination by
Mr.. Hoefler ii developed that Mrs.
Scully was not personally familiar
with the execution of the notes in
question and she will be questioned
further next Monday, to which day the
trial was adjourned.

Oakland ofice San Francisco Call,

Oakland Office San Francisco Call,
1016 Broadway, Feb. 21
The Grand Jury was in session this
morning to examine several members
Of the Finance Committee of the City
Council and questioned them in regard
to the depositing of city funds by
Treasurer FELTON, Taylor. According
to statement made by Mayor Olney
on counting Taylor's cash one day last
month he found a certificate of deposit
for $4,000 showing that this amount
had been deposited in the Central
Bank
1t is claimed that the city has de-
posit vaults and that it was against
the law for the money to have been
deposited in an unofficial depository.
Mayor Olney and Councilmen Baccus,
Fitzgerald and Pendleton were exam
ined and said that whenever they had
been present at the counting of the
money the cash had always been on
hand. Judge Hall was also called upon

Captain Leroy Fletcher was unable
to recognize the north star and could
no longer calculate his reckoning by
the charts, so he was considered as
mentally incompetent by Captain j.
N. Ross some months ago. He finally
gave up the command of the steamship
San Mateo, and deposition to this eff
feet was read to the jury now listening
to evidence whereby Albert Fletcher,
the son, hopes to break his father g
will in which he was disinherited.
Shortly before his death Captain
Fletcher turned against his family and
left his wealth to strangers. and an
attempt is being made to show that
his action was due to mental aberra-
ton. In support of this proof was
given in the deposition of Captain
Ross, who was first mate under Cap
tain Fletcher during his life. One
night when it was perfectly clear and
the vessel was not far away from Cape
Flattery, Fletcher asked Ross is he
could see the light. Ross pointed the
beacon out to him. He told Ross the
charts were no longer any good and
one day asked the cabin boy where the
dishes were when the table had been
set before him

Sings the Songs of Erin.

The Alhambra Theater was packed
last night with lovers of Irish music.
Madame Rosa d'Erina proved from
the first her right to the title of Rose
of Erin" Under her magic influence
and the spell of her voice one could
almost hear the sound of rushing wa
ters in the Vale of Avoca or the last
plaintive strains of the minstrels OF
old. Now and then the Rose and
G. r. Vontom reused the spirits OF
the audience with a fighting song oil
the Gael, like the Rising of the
Moon" or "O'Donnell Aboo'' The en-
tertainment was given under the aus
pices of the Catholic Truth Society
Madame d'Erina gave the history OF
each song before it was sung.
