WHAIfR MAKES
A RECORD CATCH
The KarIuk Gets IL Leviathans
and Rich Cargo of Skins
and Furs

According to advices received here
yesterday the whaIer Karluk, the only
representative of the Arctic fleet in
the far north, has killed II whales,
which means the biggest catch that
any ship has made for a number of
years. Eleven whales are worth at
least $4,000, and the Karluk has an
other season of hunting before coming
home. In addition. the Karluk has
another fortune on board in the shape
of skins and furs.
The owners of the whalers until now
controlled the whalebone market, now
for the purpose OF keeping up the price
decided two years ago to send no ships
to the Arctic for a season or two.
Captain Cottle, who owned big in
terest in the KarIuk, did not feel bound
by the trusts bargain, and early in
1909, having secured an option on the
rest of the vessel. interested friends
and secured about s25,000 to outfit the
ship and pay for the option.
The Karluk left here April 4, 1909,
and has had the Arctic all to itself.
except for the little schooner Rosie H.
which was enga ged in trading. Cap
tain Cottle went north prepared to do
lot of trading himself and is said
TO have been as successful in this line
as he las been in getting whales. The
Karluk will probably return late in
the fall.

s. p. c. A. PRESIDENT SAYS
BROTHER is INSANE
James q. Partridge Arrested on
Relatives Complaint

James G.. Partridge, brother of John
s. Partridge, president of the San Fran
cisco society for the prevention of
cruelty to animals, was arrested yester-
day and confined in the detention hos
pital on a charge of insanity. The
complaint was sworn to by his brother,
who alleges that Partridge threatened
him and spoke of taking his own life.
Partridge said that he was at a loss
to account for the action unless his
brother was anxious to keep him from
being witness in suit over the Part
ridge estate, which he said involved
more than 100000. He said that he
had been made a director of the Part
ridge realty company by his brother
on the condition that he would vote
as he was instructed but that he e',-
jected when he found. that he would
have to act against his sisters, Char
lotte and Edith. That he was consfd-
cred the black sheep of the family, ne
admitted.
When interviewed yesterday. John
Partridge said he was tired of his
brothers actions and threats and vgas
anxious to have the matter brought
into court. He asserted that his BROTH
er was a man of irregular habits and
had always been source of trouble
to the entire family.

SfAWflL APPOINTS
SYMMfS RECEIVER
Merchant and Banker to Man
age Safe Deposit Affairs
Under Sl,Ooo,OOO Bond
Temporary Assistant BlaHdin
Loses His Position and Re-
ceives Reprimand

Frank F. Symmes, merchant and
banker, was appointed receiver of the
California safe deposit and trust COM
pany by Judge Seawell yesterday under
$l,O00.000 bond, in place of the late
r.. }. lie Breton. Symmes is also re-
ceiver of the Citizens state bank, to
which position he was appointed by
Judge Seawell two years ago. The
liquida ton of that institution is about
completed, however.
Symmes was not able to make ar
ransements for his bond yesterday, but
expects to be able to do so today.
In announcing the appointment of
Symmes Judge Seawell said it had been
suggested to him that he should ap-
point a temporary receiver, but after
consulting the law he found he had no
power to do SO. Symmes is, therefore,
receiver of the bank in the same sense
tidl LIE Breton was. In speaking of
ms policy as receiver Symmes said:
shall, of course, do the best I can
Tor the depositors. AS to the rehabili-
tauon scheme, if the interests behind
t.lat project show they are in po-
slllon to carry it out / think they
SO. l have not made any investigation
OF what the rehabilitators propose
oolng, and l do not know if their plan
is feasible. But as a general thing it
may be said that a receivership is
long and expensive proceeding, and if
tnere is any way of ending it with
oeneht to the depositors it should be
DONE"
CHARLES F. Blandin lasted but one
snort day as temporary assistant to
the receiver of the bank When Judge
Seawell read in The Call yesterday that
he had appointed Blandin to that anon
alous position he was the most sur
prised man in San Francisco. Upon
reaching the Grant building the Judge
immediately called for the order and
wrote across it's face: above order is
set aside. ]. NJ Seawell, Judge. Dated
March "a. 1910"
Judge Seawell explained that Blandin
had presented the order as one giving
him permission to intervene and repri
manded Blandin
