Clerk Peter witte recently wrote a
letter TO President Roosevelt in which
he charged that the Secretary Of the
Treasury. Leslie NJ. Shaw, had sup.
ported John r. Walsh of Chicago,
fnancier and quarry owner, in a con.
test for sandstone public building

Shaw was received today:
Your letter has been handed TO mo
by the President" wrote Shaw. "The
statement is wholly false and your
authority must have known it was
false. did not even know that Walsh
was interested in the quarries. You
must quit traducing public officials,
Witte, or make good your cha rges.

Mrs. Gertrude II. Howard, aged 81,
attempted to commit suicide by cutting
her throat yesterday morning while

mother, Mrs. K. M. Pond, is subject to
hallucinations and while in that condi-
ton has been violent.

FRIENDS FEAR FOUL PLAY
Marion Simmons, Driver for Broad
way Department Store, Disap-
pears From Home

Marion r. Simmons, n driver Of one
Of the Broadway department stores
wagons, has disappeared from his room
at 73S South Main street and his friends
fear foul play or that the young man
is temporarily insane.
What lends credence to this latter
theory is the fact that Simmons left
his home last year under similar cir
cumstances and was found in Sacra-
mento, with no knowledge of how he
had come there.
The detectives department. at the
central station will endeavor TO find
the young man and descriptions were
sent out to other cities yesterday.
According to Mrs. Mathews. with
whom Simmons roomed, the young man
sustained an injury to his head in early
childhood and since then has had symp-
toms of mental arrangement. She said
he left the house January % to buy
some cigars and did not return. He
carried nothing with him and Is sup
posed to have been poorly supplied with
money. The mother lives in South
Berkeley and has written n letter to
the chief of police asking him to help
locate her son.
Simmons is q years old, has blue eyes
brwon hair. He weighs $50 pounds and
Is feet and inches tall. When he
left his room he was dressed in a suit
Of black.
