YOUNG CHAUFFEUR IS
ADMITTED To PROBATION
Robert Hunter, Convicted of
Assault, Is Given
His Liberty

The friends of Robert e Hunter, who
was convicted of an assault on IA
year-old Idel du Jardin, succeeded in
obtaining an order from Judge Law
lor yesterday admitting the lad to bail
until the terms of probation could be
fixed. The next regular probation day
is March 15, and until this time Hunter
will remain at liberty under 5000 bail,
which was furnished yesterday
The charge on which Hunter was
convicted grew out of an unusual case.
Idel du Jardin and young girl COM
paion were arrested last September
after three days of degrading expert
ences in local saloons and resorts,
which eliminated in an attempted
holdup of saloon at the beach by
IdePs companion, who had secured a
revolver. The case was taken into
the Police Court and also before the
Police Commission. where it resulted
in the revocation of several liquor
licenses.
At the hearing in the Police Court
the fact was divulged that Hunter who
is but 90 years of age and a chauffeur,
was In part responsible for the down
fall of the girls. He was arrested on
a criminal charge and convicted a short
time ago by a jury in Judge Lawlor's
court.
When the petition for probation came
up yesterday for hearing, 100 character
witnesses were present to testify in
Hunters behalf, but only ten of them
were called to the stand. The mem
bers of the jury which convicted the
youth also signed a petition in his
favor.

CAS- AND ELECTRIC RATE
INVESTIGATION RESUMED
Supervisors Hear Testimony
of President ]. A.
Britton
EXPENSES ARE HIGH
Witness Tells of Losses of
the Company in April
Disaster
EXPENSES ARE HIGH

The Board of Supervisors resumed its
investigation yesterday for the purpose
of fixing the rates to be charged for gas
and electric current during the next
fiscal year, with Supervisor Davis,
chairman of the light committee, pre-
siding
John A. Britton. president of the San
| f rancisco Gas and Electric Company,
testified that the ordinary expenses for
the maintenance OF the gas plant dur
ing 1906 were SS7,163.57, and of the
electric plant S157,950 The extraor-
dinary expenses caused by the destruc-
ton in part of the two plants were re-
spectively s276,018.10 and $570,S26.99.
Continuing, Britton said
Eliminating the extraordinary expenses from
the cost items would reduce the actual cost Of
producing the gas to 81 926 e63 for 1906 or about
now using oil almost entirely for the manufac-
ture OF gas, but little saving will be effect
ed thereby. We are now paying 55 cents bar
rel for OIL but after the contract has expired, on
May 81 next, we will probably have to pay 80
gas from IL to 10 cents per 1000 feet during the
next fiscal year, and also raise the cost Of elec-
tric current. Even at the increased price of oil
its use would be cheaper than COAL which has
also increased in price.
The cost of gas in the holder is SO cents per
1000 feet. or cents than last year. due to
excessive leakage from broken mains The cost
| of repairs to the gas and electric plants was
! $6Ss, %, of which s2s3,0o0 was expended on
the gas plant
| l estimate that we will sell $500, 900, 900
cubic feet of gas and $4,000. 900 'kilo watt
hours of electricity during the coming year.
J While the existing ordinance hxes maximum
rates of cents for electricity. we collected an
average of only y cents per kilo watt hour.
The loss to the plant was 81, 273. 900 of which
ST. S15,S13 represented the loss of 1858 meters.
! 955 lamp posts, 1858 lanterns, two holders at
Fifth and Howard streets damage to the North
Beach plant and the gas mains, and 81, 457 ,1s7
the loss on the electric plant, including the
seven stations poles, overhead and underground
wire systems destroyed.
AS no official of the San Francisco
Coke and Gas Company was present
to give testimony, the inquiry was post
poned until this morning at IL o'clock.

EAT ORANGE ON MARCH |
Chamber of Commerce of
Riverside Devises Plan
to Advertise Fruit

That every person In the United
States should eat one or more California
oranges on the first day of March is
the desire of the orange growers of this
State. With the object of advertising
California oranges the growers and
large handlers of citrus fruits in South
ern California have inaugurated a
movement TO have March / set aside
each year as a national orange day.
on which the people of the country
would be urged to eat at least one
orange The movement was originated
by the Chamber of Commerce of River
side, the center of the orange growing
industry of California, and although
only a short time has elapsed since its
incipiency the project has found sup
porters all over the citrus belt. The
managers of the fruit growers ex-
changes south of the Tehachapi have
instructed their agents from ocean to
ocean to do their utmost to create sup
port for the movement.
1t has been figured out that IL every
person in California would eat one
orange on a day. the amount consumed
on that day would be about 12,soO
boxes. each box containing an an av-
erage 125 oranges.

LIFE. OF MISDEEDS

James Quinn, man of many aliases
and possessor of lengthy prison
record, overcome by the guilty know
ledge that his crimes had caused his
aged mothers death, thrice attempted
suicide in his cell at the City prison
yesterday. Each time his attempt was
frustrated by the vigilance of 'trus-
ties"
Quinn's mother died on last Sunday
and her last illness was attributed to
a broken heart caused by grieving
over her sons misdeeds. Monday
night the son. handcuffed and in charge
of two detectives, was led from his
cell and taken to the bier to view the

was continued one week on account of
his condition.
The first attempt at suicide was made
at o'clock, when Quinn tied his neck
tie tightly about his neck and would
have strangled If left alone but few
minutes more. A short time afterward
he butted his head again and again
against the iron bars in front of his
CELL but was again stopped by the
TRUSTEES who had been set to guard
him. His final attempt was nipped in
the bud when some particles of glass
on the floor of his cell and which he
was preparing to swallow were taken
away from him. Following this. the
prisoner was handcuffed and taken to
the Central Detention Hospital. where
he was put in cell in the insane ward.
Lest Quinn. who had already tried
to escape by slipping out of court dur
ing his preliminary hearing, be sham
ming for the purpose of obtaining a
chance to escape, two policemen were
