CRIMINAL ACT
WAS NOT SHOWN
Charge of ENLIGHTENMENT
Against D. F. Walker Dis
missed by Judge Dunno.

San Francisco, Jan. 17.-UpOn motion
of Assistant District Attorney William
Hoff Cook, Superior Judge Dunno this
morning dismissed the charge of en-
bezzlement against David F. Walker
president of the wrecked California
Safe Deposit & Trust company, in con-
neetion with the disappearance from
the bank of the Cotton estate securities
valued at S205, 600.
Addressing the court. the assistant
district attorney stated that after a
thorough investigation of the charge,
II was found that there was no evil
dence showing criminal act on the
part of Walker. adding, however, that
there was criminal cuipability in fall
ing to investigate the affairs of the
bank and take action upon learning OF
the loss of the securities, ms undOubted
The latter statement brought about a
clash with ". H. Chi"Sering, attorney
for Walker. who was not satisfied with
the disfiSsaI of the criminal charge
against his client with this reflection
upon him by he district attorney
Mr. Cook has imputed To Mr.. Walk
Of more than did the complainant, Mr..
Crittenden Thornton, attorney for the
Cotton estate said Chickering- Mr..
Thornton stated 10 me there was moth
ing to show that Walker was Grimm
ally negligent"
II don't care what Mr.. Thornton SAYS
Or thinks" retorted Cook. Il don't
agree with him. Walker was not the
kind of man to be president of this
bank, or of any other. There can be
40 question of his criminal culpability
when he did not know of the condition
Of the bank and failed to make an in
vestization when he learned of the dis
appearance of the securities"
THE district attorney is wrong: Mr..
Walker did not know of their disap-
pearance," said Chickering,
I am not wrong. Mr.. Walker him
self so stated 10 me-" replied Cook
Chickering insisted that Cook was
mistaken. The latter retOrted sharply.

charge"
This was done by Judge Dunno

made a voluntary statement regarding
the affairs OF the bank and afterwards
testified against BARNETT and Brown

Postum Food Coffee is properly made
and used instead
A girl writes: Mother had been suf-
fering with nervous headaches for
seven weary years, but kept drinking
coffee.
zone day I asked her why she did
not give up coffee, as a cousin of mine
had done who had taken to Postum.
But mother was such a slave to coffee
she thought il would be terrible to
give 1t up.
Finally. one day. she made the
change TO Postum, and quickly her
headaches disappeared. One morning
while she was drinking Postum so
freely and with such relish, / asked for
a taste.
THAT started me on Postum, and l
now drink ii more freely than l did
coffee, which never comes into our
house now.
"A girl friend Of mine. one day, saw
me drinking Postum and asked If it
was coffee. I told her il was Postum.
and gave her some to take home, but
forgot to tell her how 10 make it.
THE next day she said she did not
see how / could drink Postum. / found
she had made it like ordinary coffee.
So told her how to make il right, and
gave her a cuDful l made, after boil
ing it fifteen minutes. She said she
never drank any coffee that tasted as
good. and now coffee is banished from
both our homes" Name given by Pos

quest that all persons now receiv-
ing their mail by rural delivery

duction of city letter carrier deliv-

themselves with the revised
names of streets in the north end
of the city and have their mail
properly addressed to the correct
street names and numbers.
Beginning with old Eleventh ave-
nue. and running north to Thirtieth
avenue, people still use the num-
bered names of streets instead of
the new names adopted by the
city when that district was an
nexed last November. The new
street names have not yet been
posted by the city, and the street
railway company also continues to
use the old names, hence the pub
lie does likewise.
Postoffice people say that on &C
count of having the numbered ave-
nues on the south side, there is
bound to be much confusion of
mail unless the people in the upper
part of the city get busy and have
their mail matter addressed to the
correct street names.

COLLINS A VERY POOR
REPUBLICAN

Editor, The Press-I, too, heard
Cushman speak Thursday night
and should like an opportunity to
take exception to Mr.. Russell F.
Collins published statement in The
Press of yesterday under the head
of collins on Cushman."
l hardly know whether Mr..
Collins could be called a loyal re-
publican or not. A member of
party that finds his party is max
ing a mistake or that some mem
Der is wrong should do all he can
to get the other on the right track.
1t is not wise nor does it help the
party for a member to criticize
publicly what should not have been.
would like to say to Mr.. Collins
that he misinterpreted Mr.. Cush-
mans remark that "all the laws
from Moses to the present time
could not legislate value in any
thing" Mr.. Cushman was speak
ing of our money when he said that
and l agree with Mr.. Cushman that
a dollar is a dollar and congress
cannot change it. Congress can
name price on the coin as legal
tender, but silver dollar contains
1922 grains of silver, which is
worth no more in dollar than
any place else, and what's more, no
legislation can change it's value.
AS the republican Mr.. Collins
claims to be, the thing for him to
have done was to go to Mr.. Cush-
man and find out the exact inter
probation of that statement. Then,
if he still thought him wrong he
should try to remedy the fault
without knocking the party. ]. M.

plague was begun in San Fran.
cisco, Oakland was frightened into
crusade of its own. Funds were
provided, and as in San Francisco,
the plague gradually disappeared
with the killing of rats and i'm
proved sanitation.
With the first scare over, there
was an element of the population
of both cities that clamored
against waste of taxpayers
money" and shouted graft
In Oakland this clamor had it's
effect The last case of human
plague was found in Oakland on
December %, 1907. On July IS,
1908, the Oakland city council re-
fused to appropriate further money.
The work of rat killing and santa
ton was SO greatly reduced as to
be practically ineffective. The rea-
son for their refusal as given by
the officials was that there was
mo need of further expenditure
when there was no human plague"
On July Fl of this year, six days
after the work had been stopped,
man died of bubonic plague. An
autopsy by United States sani-
tary surgeon proved the cause of
death beyond doubt. The proof
was laid before the Oakland city
council. 1t refused to act. Since
that time three infected squirrels
have been found in the adjoining
recon of Contra Costa county.
DR.. Blue, DR.. Wherry and his
assistants have used every means
at their command to spur the
council into action without avail.
THE statement that the situa-
ton here is national peril" says
Wherry, lis not an exaggeration.
There is the gravest danger of the
plague spreading. The sanitary
conditions in some portions of this
city are as bad as in any Asiatic
WY leato dIC luSl ldolSl
than they can be killed. Infected
animals in adjacent territory have
been found and there has been one
human death. The newspapers re-
fuse to tell the people the true con-
ditions and the secrecy maintained
is dangerous in the extreme.
1t will not be the fault of the coun-
Gil of this city if the plague does
not spread"
Both human and rat plague
have disappeared in San Fran
CISCO" says DR.. Blue. "One case
of human and one of squirrel
plague has been found in Los An
geles county, and three of squirrel

SPEEDY PAYMENT FOR
LOST MAIL

Postmaster General Meyer has
adopted a new rule for the more
speedy payment of indemnity for
the loss of registered mail. The
chief inspector is to investigate the
loss of such mail and if indemnity
is due report the same to the third
assistant postmaster general, who
is to certify for payment of the
loss.
The inspector after so reporting
is to Immediately place the re-
sponsibility for the less of such
registered mail and demand settle
ment from the mail clerk, trans.
portation company or other party
responsible for the loss.

why better facilities are not grant.
ed. Perhaps the reason most eff
fective in restraining the invest
or is the fear of unreasonable linn
itation by the public upon the re-
turns from the investment.
Personally l believe that when
the Panama canal has been COM
pleted and all the rivers and har-
bors in the United States have
been improved, that the govern
ment's investment in the Panama
canal, after 40 years of operation,
will not show in whole nor in part,
even as an engine of defense in
war, any such profit to the coun-
try as large as the great trans
continental railroads. For if we
are allowed to complete these i'm
provements what shall we have
done for the farmer that lives in
the interior country away from
water transportation?
But if the railroads are in the
hands of commissions, what will
be the result? How are we going
to get money for these railroads?
1--WE must have a captain of our
railroad industry. They criticise
Hartman. Why, he's great man.
He does things for the love of doing
things. He must do things or he
will die. He can't eat money. Mr.
Harriman's policy is simply against
the commercial waste in our rail
road systems.
"Of course we've got to have our
Roosevelts and our Caesars, but we
need to curb our Roosevelts as
much as we need to curb our Harri-
mans.
IF we must have regulation it
must be more sane"
What do you think of govern.
ment ownership?' the interviewer
ventured to ask.
Stubs leaned over on his desk
and looked fiercely at the reporter
He answered with a question.
eff we should have government
ownership of railroad while l was
president of the United States, dc
you think l would ever leave the
White House until l wanted to-"
j. c. Stubs is, next to Hartman
the biggest power in the railroad
world today. He fixes the rates
for $4,000 miles of railroad in this
country, subject now to review by
the interstate commerce commits.
