DISTRICT I WORK
GOES FORWARD
Republican League Promot-

From Important Sections
COUNTY COMMITTEEMEN
Gossip in Political Camps
Relating to Patronage of
State Harbor Commission

Delegates from the Thirtythird and
Thirty-fourth Assembly districts were
at the headquarters of the San Fran
cisco Republican League, 636 Market
street, last evening to discuss topics re-
lating to the organization of the forces
of good citizenship in these districts.
The representation of the Thirty-fourth
was quite prominent. Fred Severance,
p j. Grey, Alpheus Duffee and J. j.
Hare Republican County Committee
men of the district, were present.
Other representatives attending were
William j. GuiIfoy1e, Joseph S. Nyland.
Henry E. Holmes, Charles e. Benedict.
David Ross, Z. M. Ritter, Joseph
Belcher, William Gleeson and Arthur
Attridge. County Committeeman Mer-
rill, who is classed as a Ruef follower.
did not attend.
The Thirty-third District was also
ably represented. The factional diff
ferences in the Thirty-third are not
obstinate.
George D. Clark, permanent chair
man of the leagues committee on or
ganization, was not present last night,
but the delegations from the Thirty
third and Thirty-fourth submitted their
recommendations to Daniel H Ryan,
Fairfax H. Wheelan, Richard J. Welch,
10
mann and John d. DAILY. Other dis
tricts will be considered tomorrow
night.
1t is gossip in political circles that
the Schmitz Central Club, an organiza-
tion which was created by A. Ruef for
special duty in the municipal campaign
two years ago, has put eight organizers
in the field at salary of 500 month
for each organizer. 1t is said that Ruef
is planning for reorganization of the
Union Labor party. Many of the in
fiuential labor leaders who supported
Eugene E. Schmitz in 1908 are openly
opposed to Ruef, hence there is a feel
ing in the Schmitz camp that Ruef' S
personality should not be conspicuously
obtruded in labor circles: The notion
is entertained that better results would
be accomplished by converting the
Schmitz Central Club into an employ
ment agency, with Ruef behind the
scenes to prompt the agents.
The State Board of Harbor Commits
sioners will meet tomorrow afternoon.
Rumor is rife that Charles H. Spear and
John d. Mackenzie will stand in for
Senator John H. Nelson's appointment
to the position of superintendent of
tugs and dredgers, the place formerly
held by ex-senator French.
The claim is advanced by Nelson s
supporters that he is loyal to the Re-
publican State administration and
demonstrated his loyalty at Sacramento
during the last session of the Legisla-
ture and therefore should not be turned
down because he trains with Ruef.
Republicans who are in sympathy
with the movement for better munich
pal government in San Francisco ap-
prehend that the appointment of Nelson
would be construed as an Endorsement
of Ruef and would enable the directing
power of the Schmitz following to pro-
claim, See, the State administration
as well as that of the city recog-
nizes my power in the award of patron :
age, and you fellows on the fence who
want something must fall over on my
side to get it,"

DEMANDS HALF
OF BIC ESTATE
A. G. Hinkle Now Makes the
Claim That He Is a Son
OF Mariana E. Gonzalez
ELEMENT OF MYSTERY
Refuses to Diyulge Who His
Mother Was or Any Other
Facts of Family Relation

An element of mystery surrounds
the sudden appearance of A. c. Hinkle
in the case of the Mariana E Gonzales
estate. He alleges that he is a son OF
the deceased pioneer and is entitled TO
one-third of the 100000 left by the
capitalist. J.
Gonzales amassed his fortune IN
Santa Clara County, and immediately
after his death contest between Edie
w. Gonzales, the widow, ard Anita @
Gonzales. daughter. on one side. and
a score of the so-called Rico heirs on
the other. was begun
Now comes Hinkle with the claim
that the Rico heirs are entitled to
nothing, and that all the wealth of
the deceased belongs to the widow,
the daughter and himself. son.
Hinkle sets forth that there are pa
rers in existence in which Gonzales
admitted that he was the father of the
claimant Hinkle does not say these
papers are in his possession. but are
where they can be had. He does not
say who his mother was or is, nor will
his attorneys divulge the secret
Il do not care to discuss the case"
said Judge n. A. Dorm. chief counsel
for the claimant, nor do 1 care to say
who was the mother of the claimant.
All / can say is that I am satisfied
with the proofs"
Thus is another interesting phase
added to an already interesting con-
test. made remarkable through the
fact that every person connected with
the case. one being so years of
age, is native OF California and is in
timately connected with its early Span
ish history.

SEE POUNDMAN
RECEIVE coin
Witnesses Testify Dairy
man Mozetti Gave Money
to Deputy for Protection
MORE EVIDENCE PUT IN
Friends Repeatedly Gave
Warnings of Approach of
Officials to Impound Cows

The Supervisors Police Committee
yesterday resumed its investigation into
the charges made by B. Mozettl,
dairynan, that he had paid money to
superintendent A. L. Unger of the pub
lie pound and to Deputy Poundmaster
M. Edwards for immunity from the i'm
pounding of his cows for being at large.
The charges grew out of the petition
filed by Mozetti for the funds of $3lo
paid to the poundmen for the release
of los cows which had been impounded-
AS Mozettis witnesses cannot speak
English, Supervisor Rea was pressed
into service as interpreter.
Mozetti had W. B. Miller for his at
torney and C. B. Holbrook. secretary of
the Society for the Prevention OF
Cruelty to Animals, which has con-
Quoted the pound ever since H 0. Irwin,
the Mayors appointee, was otsted, con-
Quoted the case for the accused men,
J. Mozetti, cousin of the complain
ant, testified that B. Mozetti had on
March % last asked him in Edwards
presence if he could change $40. He
replied that he had SIS, which he gave
to B. Mozetti, who then handed the
coin to Edwards. Thomas Riley, milk
wagon driver, testified that he hao
heard Edwards tell Mozetti one evening
that it would be all right to leave his
cows out that night after Mozetti had
paid Edwards some money which the
former took from coin sack.
Thomas j. Riley, saloon keeper,
said he had received telephone mes
sage from some one who said he was
friend of Mozetti to the effect that
the poundmen were on the way to Mo-
zetti's place and to inform the latter
to drive his cows into the corral. At
torney Miller said he would at the next
meeting put other witnesses on the
stand to testify that money had been
paid to the poundmen.
B. MoZetti denied that he had told
Unger that Supervisor Rea was his
cousin and that the official would see
that the money paid for the release
of the cows was returned to him. Mo-
zetti also -enied that he had told I'm
ger that he had been offered $500 to
testify that he had paid the poundmen
for protection. Mozetti said Supervisor
Rea was not his cousin and repeated
his former evidence that he had paid
Edwards SIS at three different times
and SIS to Unger on another occasion.
G. H. Roundy testified that the fence
around Mozettis corral was old and
ready to fall at any time and that the
poundmen were hampered in their work
in the outlying districts through warn
1ngs given to dairymen by friends of
the approach of the poundmen. J.
Stevenson testified that one of Mozettis
herders had told him it was fixed with
the poundmen to let the cattle roam
at large.
The investigation will be resumed
next Tuesday at 8 p. m.

COLLINS WILL FAIL,
BYINGTON DECLARES
Fabric of Technicalities Will
Be Swept Away in

The fabric of evasions and technicali-

asserts that the method of forming the
Grand Jury, the appointment of the fore

against the attorney were all legally
done.
The present Grand Judy was mpaneled
by Judge kerrigan, and at no time has
it's standing been questioned. When form

into Judge Lawlors court, E. J. Bowes
was appointed foreman and the oath pre-
scribed by law was taken by him. Until

District Attorney Byington says it is
impossible for Collins to attack success
fully the personnel of the Grand Jury.
The names proposed for the Grand Jury
have been carefully reviewed and the
standing of each juror investigated. He
added, however, that even if the names
OF Two jurors were not on the assessment
role their acting in the capacity of grand
jurors would not be invalid.
Mrs. Sarah McCurdy, mother-in-law of
Collins, is to appear to-day before the
Grand Jury. 1t is possible that she may
refuse to put in an appearance upon the
advice of her ''son-in-law." If she ap-
pears she will be questioned closely as to
the statements made by Collins to her
regarding his marital status prior to his
marriage with her daughter and concern
ing the actions of the attorney after the
accusations were first made by Charlotte
