San Francisco disaster, Miss Kramer
was suffering from melancholia when
she left the station against the wish Of
Mrs. Gilbert. While not insane, the
police matron believed Miss Kramer
should be kept in restraint.
The police. however, discharged the
girl Tuesday noon and she at once
went to the Modelo lodging house on
South Main street and secured her room
with the purpose strong In her mind to
commit suicide.
Coroner Trout sent a telegram to
Meyer and at the inquest will endeavor
to find II the girl has any letters In
her possession which will give the name
of her family in Germany.
The girl was about twenty-sevei,
years of age, neat in her personal ap-
pearance and refined in manners.
She Is thought to have come from a
good family and possibly the motive Of
her dependency extends back to her
life in Germany before she arrived in
san francisco to learn the trade Of a
dressmaker.

Insanity Expert Says Muck Rake Man

Are Increasing Malady
specIal 10 The Herald.

Special to The Herald
NEW YORK, June Els the man
with the muck rake causing an in
crease of insanity in the United States
Is the sensationalism of the literature
of exposure, against which Mr.. Roose-
welt protests, responsible for the fact
that more persons have been losing
their mental balance during the last
few years than ever before?
The figures for the state of New
York seem significant. In the last
thirteen years the increase in this state
has amounted to no less than 25 per
cent in the ratio of the insane to the
general population.
DR.. william b. Pritchard, consulting
neurologist at Smith institute, Staten
island, Is one of the physicians who
believe that sensationalism in reform
propaganda has much to do with in
creasing the number of the insane. DR..
Pritchard said:
"The Intensity of the political agita-
tions of the period have certainly had
their effect. There have been Bryanlsm
and free silver, municipal ownership,
Socialism and other insane doctrines
yes, / stand by that, insane doctrines
and many persons of weak minds have
been so confused by the clashlng Of
opinions that they have become in
sane. | do not mean that there are
not sane free silverites and sane be-
levers I'm municipal ownership and
sane Socialists. What / believe is that
the agitation of these theories has In
some cases driven to insanity persons
who were already predisposed in that
direction"

AT meeting of the directors of the

noon the following telegram was or
man of the Los Angeles county dele
CATION in the legislature:
Telegram received and referred to
the consolidation commission. There
is no demand on the part of our people
for legislation along the line of gov
ernor's call The illogical and unsatis
factory treatment which our requests
have received up to the present time
clearly indicates that needed legisla-
tion cannot be effected at this session.
By order of the board of directors.
wv. ]. WASHBURN, President"
The telegram to which this was a
reply came from C. w. Pendleton,
chairman, and N w. Thompson, sec
retary, of the Los Angeles delegation,
and stated that the entire Los Angeles
county delegation was ready to further
any Legislation desired under the gov
ernor'S call.
The telegram was sent to each of the
civic bodies in this city and to the city
council, board of supervisors and the
consolidation commission, and the re-
quest was made that agreement be
reached o ma bill and that the measure
desired be forwarded without delay.
No Change of Position
The Los Angeles county delegation
apparently has not changed its position
on this subject in any respect and it's
offer to further legislation under the
governors call is no more satisfactory
to the consolidation commission and the
civic bodies interested in this move
ment than 1t was a week ago.
The reply Of the chamber of COM
merce to the offer from Sacramento is
sharp and decidedly TO the point. 1t
is evident that the Legislative commit
tee, after recommending the inclusion
Of the water district scheme in the gov
ernor's call, has been unable to find
anybody to present a bill along those
lines. and now the Los Angeles county
delegation once more turns to Los
Angeles for help in this direction.
Nothing of this nature is likely to
be Forthcoming, however.
The Los Angeles men at the head of
this movement propose to maintain
their position as firmly as do the MEM
bers OF the legislative delegation, and
