The case of Dr. and Mrs. Smith, charged with the murder of Mrs. Louis Hauser, was called in Judge Conlan’s court yesterday. The attorney for the defendants raised a storm by charging other attorneys with unfair tactics. He said they had gone to the defendants and endeavored to be em- ploxed on the case, but failing they had told the prosecution eveaythmg they bad wormed out of the defendants. The Judge instructed Prosecuting Attorney Mogan to conduct the prosecution alone, and the storm subsided. The case was continued. The defense claim thal they have a tech- nicality which will make the dying state- ment of Mrs. Hauser of no use to the pros- S oi the Folice Department fpoke: 1o er of the Pol ent s to girs. Hauser in German while taking her statement, as she could speak no other language. After flmshi.nfi the statement he read it to her in English and she signed it. This, the defense hold, did not give the dyibghwomnn a fair opportunity of knowing the contents of the statement as written down. ——————— Primrose wg:t first the prime rose, 0 the st rose that gvened in Spring. WILL SAIL FOR ALASKA A Colony of Coal=Miners Who Will Settle In Cooks Inlet. The Bark Theobald to Leave To-Day With Men, Lumber, Stores and Machinery. The bark Theobald, Captain Swan, will sail to-day for Cooks Inlet, Alaska, with a cargo of machinery, lumber and livestock. She will also carry away a number of pas- sengers who will remain in Cooks Inlet for some time to come. The Theobald sailed for Alaska late last fall and remained there all winter. It was thought by many at one time that she was lost, for nothing was heard from her until she returned to port in last May. She brought down with her about 600 tons of coal and is going back for more. The men on the bark constructed a road to the mine, which was opened 4000 feet away from the water’s edge, put up houses and then went mining for coal. Captain Swan was assured by the croakers that he would never reach Cooks Inlet on account of the rough weather, but he found the climate very favorable. At times the thermometer was pretty low, but as a general rule the weather was com- paratively mild. The Theobald left about thirty men behind ber at Cooks Inlet with provisions enough to last them all sum- mer. She takes away about twenty men more and a number of cows, hogs, geese, ducks, chickens, dugs and a bull.” It is proposed to colonize Cooks Inlet and establish a settlement there. For this purpose con- siderable lumber is being taken up on the Theobald, and sufficient stores to last a year. The bark, it is expected, will return to San Francisco about the last of Sep- tember. CRUELTY TO A CHILD. Mrs. Susan Coon Convicted in Judge Campbell’s Court and Will Be Sentenced To-Morrow. Mrs. Susan Coon, 927 Howard street, charged with cruelty to James Elmer Johnston, a minor child, was convicted in Judge Campbell’s court yesterday morning and will, be sentenced to-morrow. The Judge intimated that he would give her the full penalty of six months in jail. Her attorney made a strong pl«n for ac- quittal and stated that the boy’s imbecile condition was not due to cruel treatment, but to natural causes. The boy’s father was a wealthy rancher in Sonoma County, and his mother a_farmer’s daughter who was betrayed by Johnson, then a married man, under promise of marriage. Mrs. Coon, he asserted, has sued the father for the boy’s maintenance and when the case was heard he acknowled, his paternity, but through a technicality she lost the case. . The Judge ordered that the boy be given into the custody of the Society for the Pre- vention of Cruelty to Children. Gen:ral McComb at once served a summons upon Mrs. Coon to appear in the Probate Court to show cause why he should not be ap- pointed the boy’s guardian. Mrs. Coon’s attorney said she would fight the case as she considers herself a proper guardian for the boy. et A HANDFUL OF RINGS. Early Morning Robbery of a Market- Street Jewelry-Store.

The Wheat King Engaged in Grinding Out Flour in the 0ld Starr Mills. George W. McNear, the “wheat king,” has developed into a full-fledged miller and is operating the old Starr Mills at Port Costa and South Vallejo. Rumors were rife that McNear was going into the manufacturing business when the lease of the Starr mills at South Vallejo to the Sperry Flouring Company expired. This occurred on June 30, and since that time McNear has been at work renovating the old plants and putting in new machinery both at Bort Costa and South Vallejo. «“McNear has thoroughly embarked in the milling business,”’ said a flouring man on 'Change yesterday, ‘‘and the merchants are waiting” with no little curiosity to see what he is going to do. The Starr Mills are known to be the most thorouih]y equipped on the coast, and the ‘wheat king’ may prove a powerful factor in the market, although competition is already very keen between the Sperry Comg?ny. the Crown Mills and the Oregon Mills, The Starr Mills once had the greatest trade on the ocean, and furnished flour to Ireland exclusively. That trade, though, has gone entirely to the Oregon. “McNear has three men on the street and he started the ball rolling toward the Orient on the last China steamer, ship- ing 1200 barrels. The flour business here is now very fair, although prices are low."” —————— A CHINESE EMPLOYER. Sam Wah Wants No More Asiatic Help in His Factory. Sam Wah, 2 manufacturer of overalls on Jackson street, made another visit to the State’s Free Employment Bureau yester- day and renewed his order for forty-one women and girls to work in his factory. Last week his Chinese crew went out on a strike because Wah insisted upon their paying half of the cost of breakage of the sewing-machines. This settled Wah on the Chinese question, and he asked the Labor Commissioner to get him white women and girls to fill the strikers’ places. Mr. Fitzgerald made an examination of the premises, and, finding the machines safe and the sanitary condition good, said that if there are any women who will accept the work he will send them along. Wabh said that he would employ only white eople hereafter, and in about six months ge will give another order for sixty women. 8o far but one woman has accepted a place there. MRS.
