Not a baby had to be taken off the grounds. A number of the boy babies swiped cherr'es off their perambulators,, put all the girl babies were well behaved.

DEFKXSE IN M'XAMARA CASE FILES AFFIDAVITS IX SCrPORT OF A MOTION TO DISMISS CHARGES SHOWING ILLEGAL METHODS. f UNITED TRESS LEASED WIRE. Los Angeles, Cal., July 8. When court re-opened In the McNamara case at 9 o'clock to day, the defense filed a motion to quash the indict ment against John J. McNamara In the Llewellyn iron works case. Sharp criticism of the methods of thij grand jury characterized this mo tion. An affidavit attached to the document makes the charge that the grand jury "has been kept in session and has brought various people be fore It with the evident intention of intimidating any who might be friendly or favorable to the affiant, and forcing from witnesses any statement or evidence that might be by any possibility construed against the Interest of this affiant." Burns Is Scored. The affidavit then goes on to claim that Detective William J. Burns had seen Mrs. Ortie E. McManlgal tn the East and hajlfcfrged her to come to California ami-persuade her husband to retain his Btnd in support of the prosecution. When she refused, it says. Burns' agents followed her and hounded her. The document also scores the grand jury for the manner In which Mrs. McManlgal was treat ed, saying that "It was done with the full knowledge and connivance of the grand jury." The affidavit then relates the inci dent of Mrs. McManlgal being taken to the court house to testify, saying, "It was done for the purpose of hav ing her husband and detective agents persuade, threaten and Intimidate her, and thus force her to answer the questions which she had refused to answer and to take such position in the case as Burns and his agents and her husband desire." Mrs. MeMnnliral Abused. The paper then tells how Mrs. Mc Manlgal collapsed from the ordeal In the court bouse and how she was threatened with imprisonment in San Quentln. Regarding this matter, it alleges that "the actions of tjie grand jury were unwarranted, Illegal, tyrannical, showed prejudice and biased from the beginning and their minds were so biased and in such a state that they did not and could not act impartially to the substantial rights of the defendant." It also sets up the allegation that in Anril the first Indictment was found on a telegram from Burns without any witnesses being sum moned. This telegram, It says, was regarding Ortie McManlgal's alleged confession, implicating John J. Mc Namara. MeXamnrn Re-lntllcted. "Then." the affidavit says, "when McNamara was brought to Los An geles he was re-indicted by the grand jury on the same charge a second time without being given a chance to take action on the first Indict ment." Motion ot Decided. Los Angeles, Cal.. July 8 Judge Bordwell about noon today adjourned court until 10 o clock Monday morn (Continued on Pace I.) QUASH HOT ACTED OF) Want Woman Pardoned. San Francisco, July 8. The San Francisco labor council has adopted resolutions joining the petitioners for a pardon of Mrs. Angelina Napolitano, sentenced to death In Canada. The facts show, the resolu- tlons say, that many extenuat. circumstances exist, among which were "repeated acts of provocation and cruelty and wrongs upon outraged woman- hood. During the course of the whole sordid story, the woman In the main, although she broke the law, stood for what is moral and good in life, while the hus- band failed In every duty that he owed his family and to him- self." The labor council represents 50,000 workingmen. lER OF DEAD MAY BE ELEVEN S teamer Santa Rosa Went to Pieces Yesterday Afternoon From the Tremendous Pounding of the Heavy Seas. FOUR OF THE CREW DROWN ; Rescued Pusengers Reaching Sun. Francisco Say Tlicy Think Seven Passengers Were Drowned Mem bers of the Crew Corroborate Tills, Saying Seven, Four of Them Ituhies, Were Washed Out of the LifelHmts and Drowned. UNITED PRESS LEASED WIRE. I Santa Barbara, Cal:, July 8. The most authentic report In the Santa 1 Rosa disaster late this afternoon placed the number of dead at a score, i Owing to the reluctance of members of the crew to talk, It has been im possible to secure, outside the mem bers of the ship's crew, the names of persons who los tthelr lives when the vessel broke in twain. A horrifying story of the experi ences of passengers on the doomed steamer was told here this afternoon by John Barclay, of San Francisco, who, with his wife, were en route to San Dlogo. Mrs. Barclay lies in a local hospital, probably fatally 111 from exposure. Barclay said. 'Captain Faria was the most brutal man that I have ever met. Armed with a big pistol, he stood at the. brfdge and threatened men and wo men when they approached, begging to be sent ashore. "Stand back!" he yelled, "I'll shoot the first mother's son of you that at tempts to come on this bridge." "It was only when the ship began to break up and the men passengers went to Faria in a body, nnd threat ened violence that provisions were made to take the crowd ashore.'' W. H. Esslg, electrical engineer of the U. S. submarine Pike, which was one of the vessels which went, to the Santa Rosa's assistance, corroborated Barclay s story. Essig was one of the real heroes of the disaster. At the risk of his own life, he assisted men, women and children through the breakers, and was the first man to ride in the buck et, to test its strength. San Francisco, July 8. Bringing only three passengers and 7! mem bers of the crew of the wrecked steamer Santa Rosa, a special relief train arrived here today. Little defi nite information as to the fatalities caused when the ship broke up on Point Arguello could be learned from the survivors. The three passengers aboard were L. J. Burhan and wife, of Berkeley and a Miss Gallagher, of San Fran cIbco. They stated their belief that seven passengers were drowned In transferring them by nets from the Santa Rosa to the shore but would ot say that, other than Mate Hewson and the three sailors who perished with him. they actually knew per sonally of any fatalities. They de clared that while Captnin Faria, of the Santa Rosa was very severe dur ing the hours preceding the wreck, they believed he was not to blame for keeping the passengers aboard all day yesterday, as he believed tta-s hawsers from the Santa Rosa to ships standing by would hold.

The great third day started off un-l der most perfect weather conditions, : and the crowds began to pour in early in the day. There was an air of festivity abroad, and everybody was dressed in their best bib and tucker. The little German band arrived on ! an early car, and there was continu- ous music In the air. They started their perpetual concert, Interrupted only to snatch a beer and pretzel here and there in front of a beer saloon, by playing "Die VVacht am Rhein" in front of The Journal office, the official tune, for the edification of the editor, who came out and took off his hn.t to the Hungry Seven. They proved a! great addition to the good cheer and spirits of all-around enjoyment all day long.

Blind Many of the Charges of Moral Perversion Were Directed Against Thomas Grady, an In structor in the Institution, Who Has Been Kept in Place by Directors in Spite of Protests. Berkeley. Cal., July 8. Charges of Indecencies too gross to be print ed were made here today before Gov ernor Hiram W. Johnson, in his in vestigation into alleged mismanage ment and corruption in the affairs of the California institute for the deaf, dumb and blind. Before the horrified governor a score of witnesses detailed how Inde cent topics had been discussed be fore the classes at the Institution, the monotonous voices of the deaf and blind pupils and the swift fing ers of the mutes telling a story of depravity almost unbelievable. Many of the charges the afflicted witness es refused to make public, demand ing ink and paper, that they might write down the tales of what they had endured without being forced, even by tlrtlr ilnfcjrj, to recount them before the eyes of the governor and the counsel in the case. Of the charges of moral perver sion many were directed against Theodore Grady, an Instructor lm the Institution. The tale of Grady's al leged Indeciencies was so revolting that hardly any ot It could be print ed. One girl mute refused to tell of the shame to which she had been subjected, except In private. "I am prepared to show by a score of witnesses,' said Wesley Reed, at torney for those attacking the con ONLY THREE REPORT UNCLAIMED DEPOSITS Out of 70 banking Institutions which have made returns to the sec retary of state, under the escheat law, there are but three which have unclaimed deposits which, under the law, are surrendered to the state. One of these deposits amounts to $1.50; the second to $9, and the third to $2657. The Institutions where the latter amount Is deposited is located in Portland. The law requires that before tne bank shall surrender the unclaimed deposits to the state that it must ad vertise them for a period of four weeks tn a newspnper, and that the advertising shall be paid out of the deposit. The Institution having on hand the $1..r0 deposit suggests that the advertising of It will ent It up, nnd asks what action shall bo taken.

Test'- mony given before United States Steam Inspectors Whitney and Tur ner yesterday was all favorable to the officers audi crew of tha wrecked steamer Snokane. Mrs. Sarah L Dorn and Mrs. Mary E. Hart and nine of the steamer's crew testified. duct of the Institution, "that the lewd remarks of their instructor have been a matter of common knowledge among the inmates for twenty years, and that, despite pro tests, the board of directors has con- ' tinued him In his position." Superintendent Douglas Keith, and attorneys for the board of directors protested against the Introduction of much of the testimony as to Grady's alleged Indecencies. I "If this story Is true,'' said Gov ernor Johnson, "I want to hear It. You suggest that Immature Inmates should not be forced to listen to this stuff. It is not advisable that any of . us should hear such stuff, but If these wardB of the state have had to endure It there is no reason why It should be repressed now. It Is to find out precisely these thins 11ut this investigation Is being held." Among today's witnesses were Da vid Cademartorl, Antone Pelxotto, Ralph Mler and Munral Jacobs. They detailed Incidents In which they said Grady and others had used Indecent gestures, and made Improper pro posals to boys and girls In the insti tution and urged upon them obsceni ties of the most disgusting sort. Pelxotto, a mute, was so overcome with the recital of Grady's- alleged Indencies that he fainted on the wit ness stand.
