CLAIMING A VERBAL LEASE,
TENANT FIGHTS EJECTMENT
Mrs. Rfcka SchoenfeId Combats Effort
of Sullivan, Hea & Co. to Raise
Her Rent From $35 to s125.


Mrs. Rfcka SchoenfeId Combats Effort
of Sullivan, Rea & Co. to Raise
Her Rent From s35 to s125.
whether the real estate firm of Sui
livan. Rea & Co, of which Supervisor
Rea is one of the members, secured an
illegal lease to a fat at 1437 Fillmore
street and then attempted to force their
former landlady out of the building
by raising her rent from $35 to $125 a
month, Is the question at issue In the
case Of Sullivan, Rea & Co. against
Mrs. Ricka Schoenfeld, now on trial In
Judge Murasky's court.
Mrs Schoenfe1d is defending herself
against an effort to collect the addi-
tfonal rental on the portion of the fiat
occupied by her on these grounds. She
claims that she was the original
the fire she rented a parlor IN the
building to the present plaintiffs. She
claims that they later went to Mrs
owner Of the building, and after secur-
raised the rent of their former land
claims that they had no right to under
or eject her, and also claims to hold
the property under verbal under
standing that 1t was not to be leased
to any other person for three years.
She states that she still has about a
year of undisputed occupancy accord
ing to the terms of this verbal agree
inent, and that the lease executed to
Sullivan. Rea & Co. is consequently
void.

SANTA f RUNNING
SURVEYS NORTH.

The Santa Fe is running surveys in
the country north of Eureka prepara-
tory TO the construction in the near
future Of long lumber lines. BY an
agreement with the Southern Pacific,
under which holding company was
formed to take over the California
Northwestern and the San Francisco
Northwestern, running from Eureka to
Camp Five. as told exclusively in The
Call, the Santa Fe is given an outlet
into San Francisco and it is hurrying
to buy right -of-way through the lum-
Der region. The Southern Pacific is
pursuing the same policy and its sur
veys web the country north and east
of Eureka.
Railroad officials and business men
of the city say that the joining of the
Southern Pacific and the Santa Fe in
trackage to San Francisco will boom
the lumber industry of California and
relieve the stringency of the market
in San Francisco. Thousands of acres
of timber stand uncut because of the
lack of transportation facilities. The
advent of the Southern Pacific and the
Santa Fe gives these timber lands a
quick route to market.
Santa Fe engineers are relocating
the line surveyed between Camp Five
and Sherwood, the terminal of the
California Northwestern. This line was
run several years ago, but all the maps
were lost In the fire. The connecting
link will be ready for construction as
soon as the holding company organized
by Hartman and Ripley to take over
the properties this side of Eureka is
given its legal powers.

SURVEYING
At FORT MASON.
Captain Wren Starts Pre-
liminary Work for Build
ing Pier and Warehouses
WHARF OF 1900 FEET

Captain William c. Wren. the new
head of the construction department of
the United States at this post. began
to make surveys yesterday at Fort
Mason for the building of the great
pier and warehouses that are TO be To-
Gated at that point
The work yesterday was the prelim-
mary survey for the pier, which is to
be the finest on the Pacific Coast. 1t is
to be 1900 feet long. 1t will run out
from Fort Mason 500 feet and then will
form an L.
This arrangement will permit of ave
transports lying at this dock at the
same time.
The plans for this Improvement to
the harbor of San Francisco are as yet
not complete, for the reason that it
will be necessary 10 have considera-
BILE amount Of testing work done to
see exactly in which position it Is best
to have the big wharf located, in order
to get a firm standing for the large
amount of piiing that is necessary TO
hold UP the big structure.
The plans for the warehouses are be-
ing drawn up in the East. The appro-
priation for this work is s750.000. but
before II is completed much larger
sum will be needed.
DR.. Clarence H. Conner arrived from
the maneuvers at American Lake yes
terday and took up his detail as one
of the medical staff AT the general hos
pital at the Presidio.
Colonel John P. Wiser came from
the north last night and after a few
days stay at the Preside will leave

Ninth Field Battery has returned from

TELEPHONE COMPANY DOES
MUCH UNDERGROUND WORK
Ideal System VIII Do Away With Many
of the Unsightly Poles.

In the restoration of its system the
telephone company is doing consider
able underground construction work.
which will ultimately result in an ideal
telephone system. The company had
before the fire put all OF its wires un-
derground in the so-called fire limits.
The underground system will now be
extended to the South and residential
districts. and to the newly created busi-
ness sections of the city.
The system has been introduced in
the East with considerable success. and
requires the placing of but one pole in
the center of each block. From this
pole the block distribution OF the wires
to the houses is made from a water
tight metal box. technically called a
cable terminal This necessitates
the stringing of but $50 feet of aerial
wire. to the houses in which telephones
are installed
While the cost of tire installation of
the underground system is far in ex-
cess of that for the old system, the ex-
pense of maintenance is greatly re-
duced. The underground system will
last for period of from twenty Ave
to fifty years, and it's durability is
therefore largely in it's favor The
plans outlined by the telephone COM
pany will result in a perfect system,
and. vast sums of money are being ex-
pended with the object in view of CIV
ing TO subscribers the best possible
telephone service.

$4,000 against Gray Brothers for dam
age which she alleges has been done
to her land by blasting and excavating

In her petition that an excavation $50
feet deep has been blasted on these
lots and that her own land has become
cracked and fallen away for about four
feet at the eastern side. She ave1s
that it is now in such condition as
to make it dangerous for those living
on it, and claims that the defendants
have maliciously destroyed the support
in order to secure as much rock as
possible from her land. She asks for
an injunction, $4,000 for damages al
ready sustained and $4,000 exemplary

SAYS EYEsIGHT WAS INJURED
BY OvERDosEs OF QUININE

Charging that DR.. H. G. Gates, the
physician in charge of the Southern
Pacific Hospital in Los Angeles, gave
him overdoses OF quinine which caused
him to partly lose the use of his eyes
and will probably result in his total
blindness. George w. Pleasant has
brought suit against the Southern Pa
cihc Company and DR.. Gates for s75,429
damages.
Pleasant was a blacksmith in the en-
ploy of the Southern Pacific and was
sent TO the company's Los Angeles hos
pital for treatment for malariai fever.
He remained there from January "a until.
February IS, and claims that the i'm
f1ense quantity of quinine given him
is responsible for his present condi-
tion. He has been unable to work
large part of the time since his dis
charge from the hospital on account of
his eyes. and states that he has been
informed that he will probably lose his
sight entirely.

great interest in the affairs of the
city.

lad. and earned his living for some
time by selling papers on the streets.
He was energetic and of studious
disposition and soon rose from his
humble position to that of a writer of
note. His one ambition was to control
paper. and by hard work and ener-
getic study he succeeded.
His first newspaper venture was un-
dertaken when he founded the Alameda
Encinal. the first paper to be published
in the suburban city. This publica-
tion proved success from the start
and created within the young editor a
desire to head paper In San Fran
cisco.
Accordingly Hess sold the EneinaI
and went to work as a member of the
staff of the Demokrat His ability
soon made itself known, and within q
very snort time ne purchased the pa
per outright-on September II, 1865.
This proprietorship Mr.. Hess has re-
tanned all these years. The paper was
ever success under his careful man
agement. and at the present time is
rated as one of the most powerful and
influential German publications In the
country.
Mr.. Hess has always been a very
kind and considerate employer. This

men employed on his paper have held
down their positions for thirty-five
years and more. AT the present time

board by Chin Kin Yam a petition for
the refunding of $500 bail money
which was forfeited by 50 Cinnamon

the arrested Cinnamon, to the effect
that the Police Court erred in forfeit
ing his bail as he had never been held
Ito bail to appear for judgment" The
petition holds this to be a test case for

leges that he lost the receipt for the bail
money which he wants returned. The
petition was referred to the finance

Theodore C. woodbury.. representing

of Woodbury's visit is to acquaint him
self with the local situation as effect
ing the street railroad property. He
will stay here two weeks and make a
thorough investigation of the labor sit
uation as we'll as discussing with Pres
ident Calhoun the new construction
work the company is contemplat;ne.
'I am at loss to find words to ex-
press my astonishment at the way YOU
San Francisco people have overcome
your difficulties" said Woodbury. after
he had taken a trip around the city
in an automobile with Calhoun. "The
volume of trade here is as great as it
was before the fire. 1t is like hitting a
rubber baII--the blow, however hard.
leaves no impression. I could never
have understood the situation here
from a distance. No one can. Your
merchants are doing the same business
that they were before the fire. Their
quarters are not so splendid, but the
business is still there, and the bank
clearings show it.
"As to the United Railroads. our peo-
pie consider it the best property in
which they are interested and we are
going to handle 1t exactly as if we were
residents of San Francisco. What the
public wants is a good service and we
are going to give it. AS to our plans
for new buildings and putting up an
office building l must leave Mr.. CAL
houn to do the talking.
The scale of wages is high here and
the cost of building is correspondinely
great. That must naturally result in
increased rents. But I am glad to
find that our own labor troubles are
working themselves out to satisfac-
tory solution. 1 will stay here two
weeks"

HEBBARD ORDERS SHERIFF
TO SECURE COURTROOM
Takes Advantage of the Law to Escape
Cramped Present Quarters in
Temple Israel.

In final effort to secure a suitable
courtroom and chambers for the work
of his department of the Superior Court.
Judge Hebbard yesterday took advan-
tage of the provisions of section IA of
the code OF Civil Procedure and ordered
Sheriff ONeill to provide him within a
reasonable'ti time with such facilities for
court work.
The order is the outcome of the ef-
forts that have been unsuccessfully
made by the different Judges of the
Superior Court to secure better omar
ters through appeals 10 the Board Of
Supervisors. 1t is claimed that no
steps have yet been taken by that body.
but that some change must be made
before winter. Judge Hebbard acted
alone in the present step, but it is nos
sible that other members of the Su-
perior bench will make similar demands
within short time.
