this morning. less than 100 cars all told
being on sale. AS usual on a Friday there
was no great change In the situation, the
trade being rather dull.
Good beef steers seemed to be in fair
demand and cattle coming under that
head as a rule sold in pretty good season
and al prices fully steady with yesterday.
On the common to medium grades the
trade was slow, with buyers Indifferent
still prices were not materially changed.
There we're not to exceed ten or dozen
loads of cows and helfers on sale this
morning. The dry lot kinds sold quite
readily at about steady prices, but grass
COWS and heifers were very weak ami
dull. The fact is grassy stock has been
steadily declining all the week, being
now az the low point of fhe season so
far,
There were no stockers or feeders OF
any consequence in sight and the demand
was very slack. The bottom is prett1
much out of the feeder trade at the pres
ent time. The receipts on Wednesday were
quite liberal and a good many OF those
cattle are still In the hands of the specu-
lators II takes very good cattle al the
present time to bring $500 In fact,
pretty good cattle are selling consider
ably under that figure. In other words.
cattle of this description are soc lower
than they were a week or ten days ago.

summons in a suit for divorce which
his wife brought. George Towle, a
mechanic residing at Elmhurst, an
swered the call to court by shooting
himself last night The bullet from the
pistol passed just below the heart.
Towle was removed to the Alameda
Sanatarium, where he lies in critical
condition.
Shortly before the shooting, Mrs.
Towle fed with her child from the
house, fearing that her husband might
try to kill her. She sought refuge at
a neighbor's home. where the wife
learned of her husbands act Dr. Ham
ilton was summoned. and after treat
ing the wounded man sent him to: the
hospital
'Towle and his wife have lived uu-
happily for some time. His conduct
became so unbearable, according to the
wife, that she sued him for divorce
The service OF the summons enraged
the husband, whose threats caused
Mrs. Towle to leave.
The Towles' home is on Saratoga
avenue. He is As years old. His re-
covery is doubtful.

At the trial of this charge before
Judge Cabaniss, it was shown that
Stagniaro had threatened to kill Mrs.
Conrado. She testified that he carried
wicked looking dagger which he
frequently displayed in menacing
manner. Judge Cabaniss lectured the
man for his impertinence, but allowed
him to go after eXacting a promise
that he would let Mrs. Conrado alone.
Nothing more was heard of Stag
niaro at the Conrado home until the
morning of the earthquake when he
came to inquire II the family were in
need. Mrs. Conrado left the city on
the following day and Stagniaro was
unable to find her.
A week ago last Tuesday. however,

time he did not attempt to enter. but
stood on the sidewalk for several
hours. Conrado. the husband, watched
his movements for some time and then
slipping out of the house, summoned
the police. Stagniaro was charged a
second time with disturbing the peace.
The case was continued until yester-
day, when Judge Conlan dismissed 1t.
TIL protect myself" shouted Mrs.
Conradoe as she left the court room.

mission to carry revolver, which she
declares she will use il Stagniaro does
not let her alone.

.MULCREvY APPEALS
FOR NEW OFFICE.

The present inadequate accommoda-
tions of the County Clerks office for
the transaction of the immense volume
of business that is being handled Ahere
daily is responsible for request from
County Clerk H /. Mulcrevy to the
Board of Supervisors asking the latter
body to authorize him to secure new
location for his office The matter will
probably be brought UP at the board S
meeting Monday night, and If the con-
sent of the body is given to the pro-
posed change of location the Offices of
the County Clerk will be moved at
once to a large new hall on Fillmore
street which has already been selected
by Mulcrevy as desirable place for
the Offices
At present the Offices of the County
Clerks department occupy three flats
on the corner of California and Webster
streets and one fiat on Webster street
near California The rooms are small
and fitted with only the toughest of
appliances for the necessary clerical
work, and the stairways and halls are
so narrow that they are constantly
jammed by the members of the office
force and public who find it necessary
to use them
In the present location there is also
grave danger from fire, no safes or fire.
proof shelves being provided, and this
necessitates the keeping or all docu-
ments of extraordinary Importance in
safe deposit vaults, where they are
practically inaccessible for reference.
The hall selected by County Clerk
Mulcrevy is commodious and near all
the present courts, making a desir-
able location for the temporary offices
of the department. The matter has
been brought to the attention of Mayor
Schmitz and the Board of Supervisors
and Mulcrevy is urging immediate ac-.
ton.
Despite the inadequacy of quarters
since April 49,. the office of the County
Clerk has transacted a large volume
of business, the receipts for July and
August exceeding the expenditures by
$4,000. The work has been systematized
and a new method of indexing, regis
tering, docketing and entering judg-
ments has been introduced. Over 5000
civil and probate records have been
restored during the past two months
without cost to the interested parties,
and daily average of 100 declarations
of intention and naturalization papers
have been restored without cost. There
are now on file 5000 new civil suits,
1000 probate matters and several thou
sand miscellaneous cases. 1t is also es-
timated by Mulcrevy that more than
100000 suits to quiet title will be filed
under the McEnerney act.
