SAX FRANCISCO, April 23. Patrick Calhoun's attorneys partially outlined their attitude today, when the cross-examination of James I Gallagher, chief witness for the prosecution, was com pleted, after two and one-half days of interrogation. Calhoun, according to con clusions drawn from today's proceedings, has undertaken to attack the motives of Uallagher and his associate members of the tichmttz Board of Supervisors, and will endeavor to show that Gallagher re gards above everything else the immunity contract whereby he was absolved from legal penalty for the crimes which he had confessed. Says Gallagher Is Perjured. Prolonged arguments relating to the ad missibility of testimony characterized the day's session and one problem will be determined only when the trial is re sumed next Monday. In submitting to the Jury what was declared to be conclu sive evidence of perjury on Gallagher's part, the defense referred repeatedly to Instances wherein the testimony of the witness was at variance with vital utter ances made in previous trials. A. A. Moore, of the defense, who con ducted the cross-examination of Galla gher, turned the witness over to the prosecution after he had read into the record extracts from a sworn statement wherein Gallagher denied ever having committed a felony. Assistant District Attorney Francis J. Heney replied by submitting to the Jury the legal docu ment which had brought about the per jury that Gallagher admitted, and then undertook to show the motives of the witness In signing the statement. Judge VUlliam P. Lawlor finally upheld Mr Heney s contention that the defense had no right to seek out Gallagher's motives.

NOT PROUD OF HIS LETTER Mrs. Malnzer Says Idea Is All night for Rich and for Folks Who Mind Other People's Business, but Is Hard on Mothers. ST. PAUL. Minn.. April 23. (Special.) This race suicide talk, Mrs. T. Malnzer says, is all buncombe, and as far as the Roosevelt letters of commendation to parents bo. she has one and Is ashamed of it. She is the mother of 11 children. "My husband wouldn't have written to Roosevelt if he had not had. a pail of beer." Mrs. Malnzer continued. "Besides, he didn't write himself, he got a friend to write for him. And Roosevelt didn't write the letter to us. He only signed it. I bessed my husband not to write, and When the letter nam T t1ii.af..A it into the stove. I don't want anybody to see itfl I don't want anybody to know the former President wrote to us. I am not proud of It." Raps Rooservelt Idea. "Mrs. Malnzer plainly showed that to raise 11 children, do all the washing and ironing, cook for a husband besides, and meanwhile fight sickness and ill health Is not all the dream of Utopian bliss the former President thinks. "But you love all of your children, don't your' she was asked. "Yes, of course. But I am afraid I couldn't love any more," she replied "You don't think caring for a big fam ily is any picnic?" . Hard on Children, Too. "No. Such picnics are all right for the rich. Such things are not for poor peo ple. I haven't time or strength either to properly care for 11, though I do the very best I can. "Race suicide talk is all right for tha amusement of people who haven't any thing to do but bother about other peo ple's troubles, but to cook and bake and sew and wash and fight ill-health and sometimes even poverty with 11 on one's hands is not pleasure. It's work, hard work. And the hardest Is not to be able to do for the children what every mother feels she should do dress them, educate them, care for them as other people's children are cared for. Too many chil dren is something more than a pretty theory. It's grief for the mothers." Senate Confirms Batting. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash ington, April 23. The Senate today con firmed the nomination of William H. Batting, of Wallace, a nephew of Senator Heyburn, as registrar of the Coeur d'Alene land office.
