ment," he called ''I didn't say 1t, The
lady is mistaken"
IT am not mistaken" retorted Mrs.
Fuller Indignantly.
"You lie," came the quick reply.
Councilman Andrews raped sharply
for order and a moment later Mr..
BaclSus apologized to the committee.
Fire Chief Eley and two members
of the fire commission opposed any
change in the ordinance so far as fire
escapes are concerned, and after an ex-
tended discussion the committee post
poned action for two weeks. Similar
action was taken regarding the thick
sess of brick fire walls.
The trouble, from the standpoint of
brick manufacturers, now seems to be
that the increased cost of using brick
in such quantities as are required Ly
the ordinance has resulted In the
abandonment of brick walls almost al
together in favor of concrete as a
cheaper building material.
Joseph Simons, who was one of the
men instrumental in having the pres
ent ordinance adopted, was before the

CITY OFFICIAL SAYS LIE
TO WOMAN At MEETING
Apology offered by Superinten-
dent of Buildings for Los
ing Temper SCOrned

]. ]. Backus, superintendent of build
ings, lost his temper before the legis-
lation committee of the city council
yesterday morning and told Mrs. Daisy
Fuller, proprietor of the Fulton apart
ments, that she had lied about him in
her statements to the committee. Sub
sequently Mr.. Backus apologized to
the committee and sought to apologize
to Mrs. Fuller. She refused. however,
to accept the apology. Mrs Fuller
would not say whether she purposes to
prefer charges against Mr.. Backus.
The incident occurred in the course
of a hearing held by the committee on
q petition asking for two amendments
of the building ordinance, one permit
ting vertical or ladder" fire escapes,
and the other reducing the required
thickness of brick party walls.
Mrs. Fuller had several grievances
against the building superintendent
and she aired them all, telling the COM
mittee how she had been compelled to
do this and that and the other thing
in her apartment house and explaining
that she seemed unable ever to satisfy
Mr.. Backus, who, like Oliver Twist,
constantly cried for more-improve-
ments.
After a while. Mrs. Fuller explained,
she went to Mr.. Backus' office to have
1t out with him. She made her COM
plant and says that the building su-
perintendent then remarked to her;

AT METHODIST BANQUET
Two Hundred Members Present

confronting those who seek to carry
Christianity to the natives OF tne
orient, and his address last evening
was of great interest on account OF MS
wide knowledge of his subject.
On entering the banquet room the
banqueters stood in their places around
the long tables and Joined in singing a
hymn, which was followed by prayer
by the Rev. Charles e. Locke. Fol-
lowing the dinner w. S. Allen intro
duced and toasted Albert j. Wallace,
lieutenant governor-elect, who acted
as POSTMASTER of the evening.
Tie reports of the financial secre-
tary and the president followed In
quick succession. The reports read
showed the organization to be in a
flourishng condition. Following the
election Bishop Oldham was introduced
and delivered his address.

NWIFE'S SUIT WON
!. BY LOTTERY KING
Mrs. Brunner Denied Divorce, and
Desired Allowance Cut from
$1,000 to $3.50 Month
HUSBAND GETS RICHES BACK
Judge in Deciding Case Tells the
Woman She went Into Court
with UnCIean Hands
HUSBAND GETS RICHES BACK

Mrs Louisa Drummer was denied a
divorce from Herman Brunner, for
merly known as the lottery king" of
st. Louis, her desired allowance of
$1,000 a month was cut to $3.50. and the
husband was given control of property
valued at S2O0, 900 by a decision handed
down in the superior court yesterday
by Judge Crow of Santa Barbara, who
came to this city for that purpose.
The troubles of the Brunners have
been in the courts for several months
The wife began the publicity of them
by asking the court to grant her sep
arate maintenance with an allowance
Of $1,000 monthly. She then amended
her suit so that it was for complete
divorce, alleging cruelty. The hus-
band answered with q complaint in
which he asked for the return of his
property to him.
The testimony showed that the dis
sensions in the Drummer family had
been many; that daughter, Teresa
Brunner, had been given property
Los Angeles herald., 1910-11-20

worth $4,000 by the mother; that the
husband had been stamped upon in
physical encounter he had with his
wife in the bathroom of their 100000
home at Alham bra; and that he finally
had left that residence to live in a
meager room at the house of his SON
in-law.
Judge Grow declared that the
daughter, Teresa, was credited with
inspiring trouble between her parents:
Is an unnatural child, as evidenced
by her actions. He declared the
S400 900 worth Of property turned over
to her by Mrs. Drummer was given to
her only as a trustee.
BELIEVES HUSBANDS STORY
The jurist said that he believed the
lottery kings" assertions that he
had not given the property to his wife,
but had merely placed it in her hands
in order that she might have expert
ence in handling large holdings so
that she would not be unprepared for
such things in case Of his death be-
fore hers, and also that he recog
nized her shrewdness and believed
her management would result in their
having sufficient funds for comfort
able living in their old age.
Judge Grow said that Mrs. Drummer
went to the court with unclean hands;
that she believed her husband was a
"wornout money-malSing machine"
and so she had tried to divorce him
after obtaining control of all his prop
erty and so would leave him helpless
in his declining years. He said that
she showed by her actions that she
could not have taken extreme excep-
tions to anything her husband might
have said or done in his home, as he
was accustomed to saying and doing
such things all his life. The jurist as
serted that though the husband may
not deserve credit for obtaining his
wealth by lottery operations, the title
to 1t IS his, nevertheless.
The mother was given the custody
of the minor children, the father hav-
ing the privilege of visiting them
when he desires.
Mr. Drummer, who is about 70 years
old and a quarter of a century older
than his wife, was a baker In st.
Louis before he engaged in the lottery
business The couple were married

he went insane, and as a consequence it is
now claimed that the title is not good.

Conservatives Lose Hope.
Although both sides preserve a sangulne
air Of confidence, It was evident today thai
the conservatives have abandoned hope tina
their party will form the next government
The utmost they dare to expect is that the
liberal majority will be so reduced in the
next Parliament as to place the liberals at
the mercy OF the nationalist.
1t must be remembered that Mr.. Balfour,
leader OF the opposition In the House OF
Commons. in a speech some days ago said
that the great political issues now in ques-
ton would not be settled by one general
election, and perhaps not by two, Clearly
the ex-premier accurately measured the
situation and the hopes Of the tariff re-
formers must now be centered upon some
future general election.
Good Majority Tor Liberals.
An estimate made today after careful
calculation by a well informed u%nlonist,
based on Saturdays p~oilings, gives the lib
erals and labories a clear majority of 80,
or 100, over all other parties, which would
provide the liberal government with a good
working majority. Many Of the unionists.
however, are less respondent. They do no;
believe that the liberals will finish the
election with so good a record as this.
At the National Liberal club great salts
factien is expressed over the results sc
far. Some further losses are expected a
