Heney Praises Jury
and LangdOn

~RANCIs }. HENEY said
last night:
1t is not nay intention
now to discuss for the
newspapers my views on the
Indictment of Mayor Eugene r.
Schmitz and Abraham Ruef.
That case is a cOmmencement--
we shall now go on to others. 1
may say. however, that I knew
what evidence would be pre-
sented to the Grand Jury, and
my anticipations were vindi-
Gated by the witnesses. 1t is
our intention TO proceed with
other charges, but not talk for
publication. 1 must praise the
reticence shown thus far by the
members of the jury. j think 1t
a remarkable body In that re-
spect. OF course, I am pleased
with the result of the work
done so far, but have no fnten-
fion of resting at this stage of
the game. We Will continue
with the work; the jury will
come together again at 1;30 to-
morrow.
l feel impeIIed to both com
pliment and congratulate Mr..
taken in this matter. Not only
has il required fearlessness OF
his part to undertake this in
vestigatiOn into the graft which
has fiourished In the city, but it
3 has taken pains and indefatisa-
bic devotion to duty ON his part
to prepare the cases we have.
brought against these men. Mr..
LangdOn has put his whole heart
and his full loyalty to the city
and TO the. people who placed
him in the Important Office he
Ellis in bringing these accused
men before the courts.
In and out of the jury-room
he has labored. We have worked
In perfect harmony throughout
and he has been more than will
ing to respond to any cali made
upon his time to arrange the
evidence.
Our duty to the city of San
Francisco is a clear one. We
have but one path to follow and
that is the path of fact.
Mr.. Burns, the detective whose
services the city Is so fortunate
In having secured, deserves the
praise and thanks of the citi-
zens. But, really, this is not n
time for us to talk. 1 am not
privileged to say any more
about what we propose TO do
the law provides that neither
the jurymen nor the District At
torney shall discuss the cases at
issue, but when the time comes.
as IL did today, we shall make
public what we have done. And
we are not through yet; as
said before, we meet tomorrow
at 1870 in the afternoon

LAUNDRY NOT CHIPS, SMELL
Council Committee Shifts and Dis
covers Source of Neighbor=
hood ANNOYANCE

The Saratoga chip factory on Crock
er street near Tenth, which residents
living in the neighborhood claim has
been thorn in their flesh for several
years, will probably be allowed to re-
main where it is.
Residents of the locality have been
before the city council and the legis-
lative committee several times in the
last few weeks in an effort to have the
limits in which chips may be made
amended so as to exclude this partic-
ular establishment.
Action has been delayed by the coun-
Gil and yesterday a number of coun-
cilmen, including Smith, Hitler Ford
and Houghton, made a visit to the
place ana found nothing Objectionable.
They claim to have taken the place
by surprise and found everything as
clean as could be asked.
A very disagreeable odor permeates
the atmosphere in that locality but the
councilmen who Investigated claim it
comes from a laundry adjoining and
not from the chip factory.

PERHAPS A NOTORIOUS CROOK
Police Looking Closely Into Record
of Minnie WIiheIms, Now
in Jail Here

Minnie Wilhelms. now serving sem
tence in the city Jail for petty larceny
is thought by some of the detectives to
be Minnie Williams. a former notorious
crook of Chicago whose career would
furnish material for several dime
novels.
Closer comparison last night, how
, ever, made it seem rather improbable
that the city pail shelters so notorious
criminal as the real Minnie Williams.
The Chicago woman left the city
years ago after her pecula tons were
discovered and is thought to be in this
state.
She supported daughter in lavish
style and while the girl was attending
a fashionable boarding school the
mother was busy picking pockets,
shoplifting and committing daylight
burglaries.
Further investigation will be made
by the detectives to fully establish the
identity of the woman now in Jail
under the name of Minnie Robertson,
alias Willems, alias Wilhelms.

Consumption Is Germ Disease. How
Can 1t Start With a COIds

This is a reasonable question and one
that must arise to the mind Of almost
everyone when the claim is made that
consumption starts.iwith a cold. The
cold simply prepares the system for
the reception and development of germs
of that disease that would not other
wise have found lodgment. 1t is the
same with diphtheria, scarlet fever and
measles. They are most likely to be
contracted when the child has a cold.
That is why a cold should never be
neglected. The longer it hangs on the
greater the danger. AS a quick cure for
colds Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
can always be relied upon. Its remark
able cures have won for it a world wide
reputation and an immense sale. 1t is
pleasant and safe to take. For sale by
all druggists.

CLUB W|THDRAM|s
FROM FEDERATION
PERHAPS OTHERS MAY FOL
LOW THE LEAD
Women's Press Organization Starts
Movement and Friday Morning
Members Also Threaten
to Secede

The Southern California Women S
Press club has decided to withdraw
from the general federation of women 8
clubs and 1t is rumored that similar
organizations are contemplating the
same step.
The press club decisionl was reached
yesterday afternoon after a long dis
cusSion and the final vote was unani-
nous. The members who planned the
withdrawal contended that the club
does not receive enough benefit from
the federation to warrant continuing q
part of it. 1t was decided to continue
membership in tn. district and state
federations.
Many members of the Friday Morn
ing club have been quietly advocating
that the organization also withdraw
from the federation, though the ques-
ton has not yet been brought before the
board of directors.
The federation dues Of the Friday
Morning club amount to almost $500
year and many women think the bene-
fits which the club receive are not
worth that amount.
The press club voted yesterday to in
crease the initiation fee for active
members from 81 to $3 and for associate
members to So.
Stories for children were discussed
and Mrs. John w. Mitchell read a
clever specimen. A paper on "Stories
for Boys" and one on "a Girls Opinion
of Stories" were read and discussed.
Mrs. George Drake Ruddy read a paper
on "The Future of the Press Club"
and Mrs. Mary Bowman spoke of the
press club benefit to be given soon.
Wednesday evening, April %, will be
artists evening and a series of tabeaus
representing great paintings will be
given. The meeting will take place in
the Blanchard art gallery.
The second Wednesday I'M May has
been set apart as experience evening
and all the members will be required
to give some experience which they
have had in the years work.
