MORE ROOM BEING
MADE IN THE JAIL

Every effort is being made on the
part Of Chief of Police Hamilton to
get the basement Of the Jail fixed up
so that more prisoners can be taken
care of. Yesterday 16 arrests were
made, two were held over from other
days, and nine "sleepers" applied for
beds. This makes total of 27 per-
sons that had to be kept in one room,
and on seven beds, consequently some
we're forced to sleep on the concrete
floor. This will be corrected as soon
as the front basement stairs have been
completed
When everything is in working or
der, 1t is the plan of Chief Hamilton
to have all men who are held for more
than one day placed in the jail room
upstairs. Here a shower bath will be
provided and each one will be COM
PEELED to make use of II on being ad-
mitted. In this way more sanitary
conditions can be maintained in the

Oakland, CAL, Feb. 17.-Complaints
charging felony-obtaining money by
false pretenses--were lodged In the
Dolice court here today by Mrs. Her
man Milbrath, mother Of Anna Mil
brath the nurse of st. Anthonys hos
Dltal, who was married, to Sir Harry
Westwood Cooper, alias Dr. Harry
Abraham, paroled prisoner, forger and
blgamist, whose trail of crime covers
three continents
The complaint cites that CDR Abra-
ham" secured $1,000 from Mrs. Mil
brath on his representation that he
was to inherit an estate valued at 20
400 pounds from England,
The Bride Missing.
What has become of Cooper's latest
victim is today the most engrossing
mystery of the forger-bigamist's career
With the former Miss Milbrath he is
said to have taken a Southern Pacific
train from here on February 3. 1t is
feared that she may be dropped by her
forger husband, but against this is the
fact that legacy in which the girl is
Interested is said to be in charge of
her brother in Chicago. and it is
hoped that Abraham's cupidity may
cause him to try to get hold Of this.
Acting on this hope, ,Jthe police Of Chi
Cago have been notified to be on the
lookout, and it is hoped that an ar
rest there will free the girl he has be-
trayed, and once more land the crook
behind the bars.
Told Pathetic Story.
Following the discovery that their
daughter had become the victim of an
Inscriptions rogue, the parents Of the
girl told pathetic story of their mis-
taken faith in the fake doctor. They
made known that the convict had
worked upon their feelings by speak
ing Of his own mother and of the great
esteem in which he held her. After
but few days acquaintance with the
Mllbraths, Cooper informed them of the
sudden death of his mother in Egypt,
and stated that he was to receive 90
900 pounds, On the strength of this
he borrowed $1,000 in, various sums
from Mrs. Milbrath after which he
brought about his marriage to Anna
Milbrath, and then departed with his
sixth wife for parts unknown
Robbed MOther.ln.LaLw.
Cooper gave Mrs. Milbrath a 80
days promssory note for $4,000 on the
Oakland Bank of Savings. He told her
she could keep the additional $1,000
as a present" Mrs. Milbrath has
found the note to be worthless.
