Veracity of Confessed Bribetakers
Attacked Gallagher Is Ques
tioned About Negotiations
for Immunity.
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.
Heney Extorts Admission.
.v.M.r"v.11Sni,y forced Gallagher to admit

cable lines of the United Railroads could
have been restored after the fire ana

?T-a il"hr,ardJ of a Proposal by the
United Railroads to apply for a trolley
franchise on its Sutter and Larkln-street
Li""8; Heney- ln "Ply to on of
Stanley Moore's objections, said:
"AVe expect to show that Calhoun and
Iturf knew exactly the attitude of the
public toward an unqualified grant of an
overhead trolley permit, and we expect
to prove that they took advantage of the
confusion to make their move, but even

OTHER SIDE HEARD
Mother of Eleven Disagrees
With Mr. Roosevelt.
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

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."
