ASK DISMISSAL OF MOORE.
Traders Assured Dissatisfied With the
Work of the Adjuster.

The organized policy-holders' of the
defunct Traders Fire Insurance Com
pany have written a letter to the re-
ceiver, the State Bank Of Chicago, ask
ing that AdJuster L. A. Moore be re-
lieved Immediately from his position in
Oakland and that another be appointed
to take his place. The assured say in
this letter that Moore had tried to bull
doze many policy-hoIders into accept
ing shaved adjustments, and has at no
time exhibited a spirit of fairness and
good will. They point to the recent
charges that Moore has been sending
policy holders TO an Eastern specu-
lator who was buying claims against
the Traders for 65 cents on the dollar.
They declare in plain terms that his
work on the coast is not to the best in
teregts of the receiver or the assured.
The trouble between the policy-hold-
ers and Adjuster Moore has been fester-
ing ever since Moore came to the coast
three months ago. Policy holders COM
planned then that his actions were
rough and that he treated them with al
most no consideration. The climax was
reached when F. Thoms reported that
Moore had adjusted his policy and then
told him to go to an Eastern spec
ulator named Hiram Haas, who would
pay cash for ii. Although the assured
had no proof that Moore and Haas were
in league, they felt that Moore's actions
were compromising and that he should
no longer be tolerated.
The letter of complaint was sent yes
terday by Secretary John S. Partridge
after a conference with the directors OF
the Traders Policy-holders' Associa-
ton.

pected that work will be begun before
the winter is over.

TIME IS GRANTED
FIREMAN. 3 FUND.
Policy-Holders Give the
Company Two Weeks
to Get on It's Feet

Half a hundred policy holders gath
cred at S11 Turk street last night and
publicly voted their confidence in the
honesty Of the Fireman's r-und by
agreeing to wait at least two weeks
longer before any one of them would
begin an action bringing the affairs
of the crippled insurance company into
court. This vote was recorded merely
as an adjournment until August 27, but
the understanding among the assured
was that the vote was an expression of
confidence in the company for another
two weeks. 1t showed that the body of
policy-holders believe the statement of
President Dutton that the Fireman's
Fund is doing all in its power TO
straighten out the fearful tangle
caused by the destruction of its records
and the fall in value Of many of its
most priced securities.
A few of the policy holders rebelled
against the long delay, declaring that
they ought to be paid at once. T. Cary
Friedlander, secretary of the Merchants
Exchange, and Attorney c. E Kinard
carefully explained the financial prob
lem that faces the directors Of the Fire
mans Fund. and those who were dis
satisfied quickly Joined the ranks Of the
policy holders who had confidence in
the final ability of the company to pay
dollar for dollar.
President Dutton said yesterday that
the Fireman's Fund would soon be able
to make q statement to the public ex-
planning the condition of the company.
He said he was positive that the
company would not be compelled to go
into liquidation, but would be able to
pay all its losses dollar for dollar. The
large policy-holders of the city are
helping the Fireman's Fund finance
its securities, so that the greatest sum
possible may be realized.

Carl Bennett, accused of having cold
bloodedly delayed the summoning of
aid for his sister-in-law, Mrs. Harry
Stephens, who in a fit of dependency
committed suicide at her home, 80
Parkside avenue, denies the charge. He
maintains that when he found his sis
ter-in-law suffering from the poison

sician. He found none nearby and hur-
ried to the Park Hospital. He declares
he told the nurse on duty that Mrs
Stephens took poison and that the am
bulance was sent dashing to the house,
he accompanying it.
Bennett and another sister-in-law,
Annie Smearring, rode with the suffer-
ing woman to the hospital There was
no doctor in sight when the victim ar
rived, says Bennett. Frantic with fear,
Bennett says. he offered IS to any one
who would bring a doctor. He claims
the nurse was powerless to aid the
dying woman and that the surgeon,
DR.. Glover, did not arrive until twenty
minutes after the ambulance came in.
In reply to the charge that he fed
from the city after the tragedy, Ben
nett says that he went to Stockton to
summon a relative, r. j. Quinn. Quinn

He declares that Bennett came twice
to the Emergency Hospital and that
he tried to prevent the newspapers

the house privately. DR.. Glover says
he was in the hospital when the am
bulance arrived, and he is borne out
in the declaration by the nurse, Mrs.

Milling Company of Montana is the
gamer of s195.oo0, and it's title Is es-
tablished to certain veins Of ore under

pany, which is British corporation,
to recover damages for trespass upon

lies inside the surface lines Of the St

ward course crosses the vertical side
lines of the St. Louis claim and enters
within the boundary lines of the ad-
Joining claim. owned by the Montana

THE MACHINE IN RED BLUFF.
Politicians Seek to Be Delegates If
Independence Is Tolerated.


Independence Is Tolerated.
RED BLUFF, Aug. 13.-Calls have
been made by both the Democratic and
Republican central committees for
meetings to select delegates to the
State conventions. The unknown atti-
tude of the Republicans of this county
regarding the gubernatorial contest
has developed a strong desire in many
of the prominent politicians to secure
appointments as delegates. The rank
and file are for Pardee, but the ma
chine seems to lean toward Gillett,
who was here a few days ago and
succeeded in making a good impress
sion with the bosses.
Chairman Coffman of the Republican
Central Committee is said to be a can
didate for State Senator, and it is yet
unknown what effect his candidacy
may have in the selection of a dele
cation to the State convention. James
Matlock. the secretary of the commit
tee, also desires TO wear a Senatorial
toga and his ambition may also result
in the formation of a combination of
delegates in favor of his interests, as
the officers of the committee will have
much weight in the selection OF the
delegation.

' HE woman found hidden in the

stirn, 1926 Sutter street, early
yesterday morning, and now in
jail charged with burglary, is Mrs.
Ella Mullan, the divorced wife of
Policeman John Mullan of the Mission
district, who is at present on his vaca-
tion. When arrested she gave the
name of Margaret Murphy. but when
instructed and arraigned before Police
Judge Shortall yesterday morning she
admitted her identity.
request was made by her attorney
to admit her to BAIL and the Judge re-
quested a statement from DR.. Rosen-
stirn before fixing the amount. DR..
Rosenstirn said that shortly before the
woman was caught in a closet in his
kitchen she had called at his house
and asked him if a Mrs Blunschweiler
lived next door. He had heard a woman
quarreling with Mrs. Mullan shortly
before about the theft of some things
from her house. The Judge fixed her
bonds in $4,000 or $1,000 cash. The case
was continued till Thursday.
The woman persists in her statement
that She mistook DIR. Rosenstirns
house for the one next door, occupied
by Mrs. Harris. She says she was to
call upon Clara Morrissey. servant
employed at the Harris house, and as
the front door was closed she crawled
through the kitchen window. She did
not discover her mistake till a young
man with a revolver in his hand ap
peared in the kitchen, and then she
hid herself in the closet.
This story contradicts her first state
ments. She told Policeman McManus,
who arrested her, that she had called
to see Mrs. Harris about getting po-
sition as a servant and finding every
body in bed, thought she would stay
till morning, when she could talk with
Mrs. Harris.

Mrs. Mullan is 20 years of age, but
