Miss Anna G. Busteede Declares
Dead Politician Borrowed
$1,000 From Her
She Will Press Claims Against
Remnant of His Estate
in Santa Cruz
Secretly Engaged TO Marry Him
and Tided Him Over Many
Financial Straits

Testimony given in the superior
court yesterday made public the exist
ence of claims amounting to $1,000
held by Miss Anna c. Busteede against
the estate of the late Major Frank ].
Mclaughlin, who committed suicide
at Santa Cruz after shooting his
daughter, eight months ago. The dis
closure was made all the more sensa-
tional when Miss Busteede declared
that the claims represented money ad-
vanced to Major Mclaughlin while
she was engaged to marry him.
Though the friendship of Miss Bus
teede and Major Mclaughlin was well
known. there was not the slightest
whisper of their engagement or OF her
having advanced money to him. She
was regarded as being but one of the
many friends of Major Mclaughlin,
without claims OF any character against
him, save those OF friendship,
The evidence regarding the claims
was brief. but Miss Busteede unhesi-
tatingly corroborated it and added to
1t details OF the transactions which In
dicated that the major was at the last
ditch financially when he took his own
life. and in even worse straits than
was generally supposed.

fore his DEATH" said Miss Busteede,

pearances and few knew Just how

lump sum; let him have it at vari-
Gus times. He made many a desperate
effort to get on his feet. but it was to
no purpose. We were engaged to be
married at the time and affairs finally
came to such a pass that pawned my
jewels and gave him the money. hop
ing that it would be sufficient for him
to hold on until the prospects were
brighter; but il was to no purpose. He
could not pull himself together and
finally gave in"
In speaking of her engagement to
Major Mclaughlin, she said that it was
never made public, Major Mclaughlin
having desired that it be kept secret.
Our plans were to get married after
his daughter was welded" said Miss
Busteede. "She was engaged to Chris

layed her marriage. don't believe he

FLAG OF RIGHT
Oakland Councilman Urges All
to Uphold Work of Graft

Principle at Stake and Men

Is Stirring Call
Conditions in San Francisco Are
Worse Than vigiIantes
Found He Declares

OAKLAND, June 2.-"Never have
such conditions existed in any COM
munity as now exist in San Francisco.
Right and wrong are the issue. AS
far as the graft prosecution is con-
cerned, it is right. 1t stands for the
right, and any person who does not
stand for the right stands for what is
wrong. There are but two hags-the
flag of right and the flag of wrong.
There is no middle ground.
The situation in the city across the
bay is worse than it was in 1850. Then
the enemies of the public veal were
more in the open and were generally
known. Now they lurk with the rich
as we'll as with the petty CRATER, and
the danger is therefore greater.
He is not a good citizen who is op-
posed to the effort of honest men to
drive out corruptionists as rats are
driven from hole. 1 say. on with the
prosecution.
PRINCIPLE is AT STAKE
''Heney. Burns and Spreckels are
only instruments in the battle that is
being waged for law. order and the
right. 1t is the principle of wrong and
right that is involved-not Heney,
Burns or Spreckels.'
In the foregoing words Councilman
A. III. Elliot referred to the graft prose-
,cution In an address delivered tonight
in Cameron hall, East Oakland, before
the Lincoln-R Roosevelt league club OF
the fifty first assembly district. Con-
tinuing. the speaker said:
I'VE are at this time facing a crisis
where We have got to take a stand
either for the right or for the wrong,
and to proclaim our attitude without
fear or favor. Oakland is as much con-
cerned in seeing the right vindicated
as is San Francisco. The government
of California has long been ruled by a
small group of men for their own
selfish ends. and the organization of the
Lincoln Roosevelt league is a protest
against this machine domination.
MUST FIGHT MACHlNE
'To obtain results we must have or
.ganization. That is how the machine
has held control. We cannot secure re-
suits by studying political economy and
political theories. We must fight the
machine with its own weapons, and
the best of these weapons is organIza-
ton.
The organization OF the machine
stands solely for the benefit of the
selfish few. The organization of the
Lincoln Roosevelt league stands for
equal benefits and justice to ALL 1t
stands for the policies of Lincoln and
Roosevelt and we cannot afford to have
their policies overturned at this time
DIR. T. B. Holmes, president OF the
district club, introduced Councilman Ell

others at regular intervals during the
present campaign.

With a revolver in his hand and a
determination in his eyes that was suf-

score of toughs in Barbary coast
dance hall, Lieutenant Frank T.
Evans, son of Rear Admiral Bob"
Evans, championed the cause of two
sailors from his own battleship, the
Louisiana, Monday night and fell into
the grip of the police as result of
his act.
Young Evans was on Summing
expedition Monday night with several
of his fellow officers, when, becoming
separated from them. he stepped into
the L. S. dance hall in Pacific street.
He was in civilian clothes, and at the
door of the resort met about 10 of the
crew of the Louisiana. One of the
women in the place, it is alleged, ex-
tracted $50 gold piece from the pocket
of William Edmundson, one of the
Wallick, a comrade. protested against
such an open theft number of the
male habitues of the dance hall moved
toward them in a threatening manner.
GOES TO THE FRONT
Evans watched the trouble for a
moment from a little distance. and
then, when the threats against the sail
ors became more hostile, suddenly
whipped out revolver and jumpSf in
front of them.
IF anybody here dares lay hand on
either of these men or any other man
in sailors uniform I'll shoot" he
shouted.
The crowd fell back. cowed. and a
runner was sent to notify Policemen
Helms and Manion at the corner of
Montgomery avenue that an attempt
was being made to shoot up the place.
The officers rushed into the dance hall.
found Evans holding the crowd at bay
with his hand on the butt of revolver
in the pocket of his long overcoat, and
when he refused to give an explanation
placed him under arrest.
EVANS BOOKED AT PRISON
Lieutenant Evans was taken to the
city prison, where he gave his name
and occupation, and had charge of
carrying a concealed weapon booked
against him. He was promptly re-
leased. however, when he explained the
facts of the case to the police officials,
and when the case was called yester-
day morning in Police Judge Weller's
court it was dismissed without Evans
being arraigned
Later Evans called upon Chief of Po-
lice Biggy, in company with the two
bluejackets whose part he had taken,
and related all the particulars of the
occurrence.
Il don't propose to see any man in
the uniform of the United States navy
robbed Of his money" he told Biggy as
he left the office.

BURTON AND SENATORSHIP.

Congressman Burton, who was offered
the treasury folio in the next presidents
cabinet, has gone back to Ohio to fight
with Charles p. Taft for the senator
ship, and on the heels of his departure
comes the announcement that the pres
ident-eleet has withdrawn his offer of
a place in the cabinet for Mr.. Burton"
1t is not explained whether the an
nouncement means that Burton refused
TO be drawn. out of the senatorial race
by the bait offered. or whether he was
found lacking in qualifications for the
Office rendered him.
In any event. Mr.. Burton is fighting
that brother of the president-eIeet who
financed the campaign for the Chicago
nomination. and afterwarf contributed
more than anybody else to the national
campaign fund. Mr.. Burton is assured
that the next president win take no
part in the Ohio senatorial scramble,
and that he will have a free field.
OF course he will The simplest mind
can grasp the sort of chance a common
SOAiSi tSSlll1il III nave against the
brother of the coming chief executive
in a contest of that sort. The thou
sands and tens of thousands of Ohio
politicians who banker for federal jobs
Will just rush to the support of Burton.
Far be it from them to calculate the
of vote for the brother of
the man who will control federal pat
ronage for the next four years. or to
even think of being Influenced by the
that will be at the disposal
of Brother Charles when Brother BIZ
gets into the White House
Mr.. Burton must think he has some
show of winning, or he would not turn
down cabinet Office for the chance Of
a senatorsh:p, but to a man way out
west, the Burton calculations seem
foolish. He has about as much show of
winning as a rabbit in a Waterloo
stake for greyhounds.
