sister OF Mrs. Howard Gould Gives
Up All Rights.
Mrs. Wong Sun Yue of San Fran
cisco, sister of Mrs. Howard Gould, is
no longer an American citizen.
She voluntarily relinquished her
rights as a native born Californian
recently to become as much as posi-
BILE an all-around Chinese, like her
husband. The records of the local
Chinese bureau are lacking in cases
similar to that of Mrs. Wong Sun Yue.
She will be subject to the laws of
China when she chooses to visit that
country and when she comes home she
will be subject to the regulations of
the immigration and restriction laws.
Mrs. Yue, who renounces her citizen
ship to become a Chinese merchant,
said: "As a Chinese merchant many

closed before. l have become a mem

scHMITz MAY GET BAIL.
Mayor Has Wide Discretion After
June 27.

Mayor Has Wide Discretion After
June 81.
A radical change in the executive
branch of San Francisco's government
is contingent on developments in the
case of Mayor Schmitz, who is tenn
porarily incapacitated by reason of his
Imprisonment in the county Jail.
The date for the passing of sentence
on Mayor Schmitz in the extortion
cases, on which he has been convicted,
has been set for June q. Prior to
that date he can not possibly procure
bail, according to the decision of Judge
Dunno yesterday, but the law provides
that after the judgment has been
passed, the matter of allowing bail is
discretionary with any magistrate hav-
ing jurisdiction. Consequently, if judg-
ment is passed on the date set, Mayor
Schmitz will have ground for new
application for bail, and his request
may run the gauntlet, not only OF the
IL judges of the superior court, but
OF the appellate justices and justices
OF the police courts as well. Whether
Mayor Schmitz will ask for sentence
on June q or ask for a continuance
has not been stated by his attorneys.
This has made it impossible for the
to plan it's action in this
regard.

Steel Mills Close.

The receivers of the Milliken Bros.
corporation, which failed recently
have decided to close the steel mill of
the $I5OO'OOO plant on Staten island
and have, in accordance with this de-
termination, discharged 1900 steel
workers. About 1000 persons are de
pendent upon the earnings of the dis
charged men and as the reopening of
the mill is problematical, most of the
workers and their families will go to
other steel centers to secure employ
ment.
The reason behind the receivers ac-
tlon IN closing the mill was said to be
thelr discovery that they could buy
steel in the open market cheaper than
they could manufacture it.

MAYORSCHNITz,
SAN FRANCISC0'S Chief RE-
MANDED TO SHEREFF'S CARE.
He Must Stay in Jail by Order of the
Judge-Mayor Pleads Press of Work
Attorney Langdon Insists Defend
ant Appears Before Court as Would
Any Ordinary Citizen.

San Francisco-'No bail for Eugene
E.. Schmitz,' the convicted mayor OF
San Francisco, was the ruling made
by Judge Frank H. Dunno, in the ap-
plication made by the mayors counsel
that he be given his liberty under
bond pending sentence, which court
will pronounce on June 81.
Judge Dunno adopted as his own the
stand of the prosecution that in the
eyes of the law the mayor is no diff
ferent from any other prisoner on
whom jury has set the brand of
felony.
Judge Dunno then called the sheriff
before him and said that Schmitz was
not to be allowed his liberty, but was
to be confined in Jail unless upon or
ders of court.
Former Judge J. c. Campbell, the
mayors chief counsel, made the formal
motion for the admittance of his client
to bail on the strength of an affidavit
in which the mayor says that by rea-
son of having been compelled to give
almost his whole time and attention to
his trial for the last four weeks, pub
lie business requiring his attention has
been delayed, and there is now a large
amount of it pending and undetermin-
ed and requiring his immediate atten-
ton.
schmitz "ordinary Citizen"
District Attorney L4angdon, in a
brief speech, opposed the motion for
bail. He said that Schmitz, convicted
of felony, appeared before court, not
as a mayor of San Francisco, but as
an ordinary citizen, and possessing no
extraordinary rights. In a counter af-
fdavit, which he read, he denied the
of the mayor as to public
matters requiring the personal atten-
ton of the mayor.
Mr.. Langdon reminded the court that
as the San Francisco charter provides
that $50 long as the mayor is tenn
porarily unable to perform his duties,
a member of the board shall be chosen
president pro TEN. to act as mayor"
1t was not necessary that Schmitz
should perform any of the duties speci-
fed in his affidavit.
Mayor Schmitz sat without the be-
-rayal of any emotion during these
