LAWS DELAY ADDS
To PENALTY.

After fighting for FIVE and a half
years. during all of which time he re-
mained in jail, for the repeal of ten
year penitentiarS sentence. Ernest
Moore Chadwick, alias Sir Harry West
wood Cooper, was yesterday sentenced
by Judge Carroll Cook TO six years in
San Quentin for perjury, which will
make his total loss OF freedom a year
and half longer than it would have
been had he first accepted the decision
of the court.
Chadwick's case is one of the most
noted which has been through the To-
cal courts in years. Even yet the case
may not be, closed, for Chadwick has
announced that he will appeal from his
sentence on the ground that 1t was not
made on any verdict heretofore rem
dered.
In 1898 Chadwick was convicted un-
der his titled alias of having passed a
forged check, and served a term in the
penitentiary for the offense. Upon his
release he went to Crockett. where he
bgan practicing as a physician under
his true name. He there won the heart
of Norine Schneider. a pretty girl
whose mother objected to a wedding
unless he could furnish a liberal dover
with the offer of his heart and hand
Chadwick at once told tales of wonder
full wealth in England, and Mrs.
Schneider came to San Francisco to
consult with her attorneys regarding
an investigation of Chadwick's claims.
While she was here Chadwick took ad-
vantage of her absence to send Norine
telegram, signed with her mothers
name, commanding her to marry him at
once.
The marriage followed without de-
lay and the bride and groom started
East In Utah they were captured and
Chadwick was brought back and
charged with having forged the tele-
gram On this charge he was convicted
and sentenced to ten years in prison,
but the Supreme Court reversed this
sentence.

however. Chadwick perjured himself,
and was convicted and sentenced to ten
years on that charge. He appealed to
the District Court OF Appeals, which
recently affirmed the Judgment after q
complication of legal proceedings, in
which Chadwick now believes he sees
loophole of escape. 1t was learned
after Chadwick's marriage to Miss
Schneider that he had another wife.
and his marriage to Miss Schneider was
annul1ed, but no bigamy charge was
ever brought against him. Recently
Chadwick forged the name of Judge
Trout to an order permitting him to
leave the jail on certain days, but this
matter was not taken up.
The sentence yesterday by Judge
Cook was given on motion of Assistant
District Attorney Hanley that judg-
ment be pronounced.

BOAT ADR|FT WITH
QAzED SOLDIER.

The outcome of a fight between two
soldiers in an open boat which was
afterward found adrift near sausalito
yesterday with one OF the pair lying
helplesgly dazed against the blood
smutched gunwale IS something the
police are trying to find out.
Was Clarence Wilson beaten into in
sensibility by his chum, James Murray
of the Twenty-second Infantry, and set
adrift in the boat, or was Murray
knocked on the head and thrown over
board after having all but overcome
the man he was struggling with?
The police say that either theory Is
plausible. and are directing their at
tention in trying to get trace of Muir
ray, who is missing.
Engineer Frank MCGOWAN OF the
North Shore Railroad first saw the
drifting boat. 1t proved to be the Cam
tain Sneed, one of the many small Gov
ernment craft about the bay, and Nc
Gowan towed 1t to shore with the as
sistance of Dudley Lyons. a freight
clerk.
Wilson was unable to talk when the
pair first spoke to him. His eyes were
blackened and his face cut and bruised
In many places.
When he finally spoke he said that
he was asleep in the barracks at Fort
Mcdowell, on Angel Island, early yes-
terday morning, when he was awak-
ened by cries for help. He ran out of
the barracks and down to the wharf.
where the Sneed was lying That was
the last he remembered.
Later in the day a guard from Angel
Island appeared at Sausalito in search
of Wilson.
The guard said that Wilson and Muir
ray disappeared from the barracks at
the same time. Wilson, however, says
he knows nothing of Murray Both
the police and the military authorities
believe he is not telling the truth and
are making a thorough investigation
in the case.

Supervisors Safe From Perjury Charge
on Their Ahdavits Of Innocence.

Ruefs latest play in presenting affi-
davits of his Supervisors that they
had never committed crime has. at
first blush every mark of desperation.
It roars with boldness.
Straight in the face of Heney's threat
OF perjury charges come the valiant
eighteen and swear they have commit

But there are other lawyers in town
besides Ruef and Henry Ach, and they
are laughing today at the transparent
mask of the lion.
1t was not perjury
1t may have been false in every let
ter and spirit and still it could not be

commission of crime by the eighteen

Ruef have an interview with Gallagher
in which he arranged for the "sus-
pension" of Langdon and his own ap-
pofntment? Perjury that question
would have been actionable Ach knew
it and Ruef knew it; and Ach hastened
to interpose an objection when Heney
asked 1t. and Ruef refused to answer.
Ach then made the boast that Ruef
would be glad to testify that he had
committed no crime. OF course he
would. For he knew 1t had nothing
to do with the case being tried and
would in no way enmesh him In a
charge of perjury. His answer might
have been a lie, and still it would not
have been perjury. But If he had de-
MED that Il suspended Langdon''-to
quote the words he has used in several
published interviews-a charge for per-
jury could have been brought.

to do with the injunction case as if
they had sofemnly sworn that they

they were elected.
Perjury is defined in section 11s of
the Penal Code, and that section makes

the court. The crimes of the Super

IF Ruef had answered Heney's ques-
tion about an interview with Gallagher
previous to the attempted suspension
of Langdon. Judge Heney would have
had an opportunity to add another
charge to those he has against Mr.

to question from Hiram johnson,
that the question was material, but I

be decided on other lines and that IL

TRAGEDIES FOLLOW
SMILES Of LOVE.

At the Central Emergency Hospital,
Leonardo Lajorgin, an Italian sailor,
lies dying from a revolver wound re-
ceived in a duel Wednesday night with
Luigi Mauro. fellow countryman. At
the City and County Hospital another
man. Charles Spano, is struggling
against death from self-infiicted re-
volver wound. Still a third man, La
iorgin's assailant, is fugitive from
Justice All three are the victims OF
the winsome smiles and coQuetry of a
pretty Milanese waitress, Celia, who
lives at the Roma Hotel at Bay and
Powell streets, and whose smiles are
still as sweet and glances as gay as
though their owner had no knowledge
of the tragedies they have caused.
1t developed yesterday that the duel
Wednesday night, in which Lajorgin
and Mauro figured. was not the only
battle fought for the love of the brown
eyed Celia. Just two days before this
conflict occurred, in the hallway of
the Roma Hotel, Charles Spano fought
even a fiercer battle within himself
His attentions to Celia had been re-
pulsed, his love spurned, and life con-
tained no balm TO heal his broken
heart.
So Spano secured revolver and shot
himself. in the right breast, believing
When he found that his heart was on
the left side he made a second attempt
to put a bullet into 1t but was pre-
vented by friends. The shot made an
ugly wound from which he has gradu-
ally been growing weaker until last
night, when it was stated that he can
survive but a short time longer. He
was first treated at the Central Emer-
gency Hospital. then taken to the
French Hospital and later to the City
and County Hospital.
Wednesday night Leonardo Lajorgin
and Luigi Mauro, both deeply in love
and also rivals for the attentions OF
the pretty waitress, met in the hall
way of the boarding house where the
romance centefed and fought duel
Leonardo used stiletto and wounded
Luigi, and Luigi in turn shot Leonardo
through the groin and then escaped.
Lajorgin and Spano, each in an agony
of suffering, lie dying on cots in diff
ferent hospitals not far separated from
each other. Mauro, wounded and fear
full of punishment, skulks from hiding
place to hiding place, trembling in
fear of the hand of the law. But down
at the Roma Hotel the smiles of Celia
the bewitching waitress, are gathering
new deyotees at the shrine of love-

WOMEN OFFER ND
To PERRIN.

DR.. Edward B. Perrin, who was in
dicted last Tuesday by the United
States Grand Jury for having conspired
with John A. Benson to defraud the
Government out of 1000 acres of tim
ber land in Tehama County, came to
the United States District Court yester-
day and surrendered himself to United
States Marshal Elliott. He was ac-
companied by Mrs. Susan A Thornton
and Mrs. Fannie B. Minor. wealthy
property owners in Fresno County,
where the defendant owns large tracts,
besides a controlling interest in an ir-
rigation ditch company. The ladies
gave bonds in the sum OF 10000 and
the defendant was released.
Frederick A. Hyde. who was indicted
two and half years ago with John
A. Benson for land frauds, heard of
Tuesdays indictment of Benson on the
next day. He teIephoned to the United
States Attorneys Office and the follow
ing dialogue took place:
My name is Frederick A. Hyde. Is
that the United States Attorneys of
fice?"
Yes, SIR
do you require anything of me?"
No, sir
"Good-by."
There was shade of disappointment
in the voice of Mr.. Hyde as he hung
up the receiver. He had been Benson s
partner so long that he thought it
strange that Benson should be indicted
and he not be called to account also

NE ERCHANT STRUCK
BY 4 ROWDY.

John Mccarthy, a member of the firm
Of Sweeney & Mccarthy, haberdash-
ers, at 1909 Fillmore street was arrest
ed at o'clock last night by Detectives
Davids and McGrayan for an unpro-
voked attack upon III. r. Dunn OF the
Nathan-Dohrmann Company. Dunn was
passing the corner of Fillmore street
and Golden Gate avenue, when Nc
Carthy, who was drunk seized his hat.
Dunn did not know Mccarthy. and re-
sented his familiarity He did moth
ing more violent, however, than to take
the hat away from Mccarthy.
The drunken man became enraged by
this display of force. and rushing to the
sidewalk seized a buggy whip from a
wagon Armed with this weapon he
renewed the attack Dunn was struck
a blow upon his head with the butt of
the whip, sustaining a severe laceration
Of the scalp. Detectives McGrayan and
Davids witnessed the attack from
across the street and apprehended the
offender before he could make his es-
cape. At the Bush-street station he
was charged with an assault with a
deadly weapon.
Up to a late hour last night the
friends of the prisoner were attempting
to effect his reIease on bail, but as his
condition did not improve in the narrow
cell in which he was placed the police
decided to hold him until his violence
subsided.
Dunn was taken to his home at 1904
Octavia street after his wound was
dressed in drug store. He declares
his intention of prosecuting the offend
er on a felony charge.

Attempts to Quiet
Charges of. Graft

Through the medium of an Obsolete
and almost forgotten section of the
Penal Code. in which it is provided that
all newspaper articles tending in any
way to impeach the honesty or integ-
rity of any person must be signed by
the writer with his full. name, an effort
has been commenced TO reap pecuniary
gain from some of the uncomplimen-
tary statements that have recently
been made by local newspapers against
Abe Ruef and his cohorts. 1t is
strongly suspected that the curly boss
is himself behind this move. which has
been made in the name of Bertram NJ.
Leadley.
Section 259 of the Penal Code. passed
by the Legislature in 1899. provides
that all articles In which any dishonest
acts are attributed to any person. or
in which any suggestion is made which
might be injurious to character must
