CANNOT SELL STOCK. ! Victory of George Richards Over the French Guich Mining Company. Judge Hubbard has rendered judgment in favor of George C. Richards in his suit | against the French Guich Gold Mining Company. The action was brought to straigliten out the tangle over 80,000 shares of the stock of the company. The stock was pledged by J. W. Conant,a director in the company, to Wilson T. Smith, to recure a loan of §6000. Smith afterward transferred 1t to Richards and then an assessment was levied and Richards’ stock was going to be held up for sale for delinauency, but an injunction stopped this. In the meantime, Conant’s original indebtedness having matured, Richards demanded it and then in default of pay- ment he sold the security, buying it in himself. In consequence he became the | absolute owner. % y In his suit for an injunction Richards included also a piea to declare the assess- ment invalid-and to oust the directors who levied it. The demand to oust the direc- tors was withdrawn, however,and Richards has secured favorable judgment on the remaining points. 4 1 —— New Meat Regulation. 4 The new United States meat inspecting reg- vlation will go into effect at this port on Sun- any.

If Matters Are Forced There Will Be a Free Fight and Blood May Flow. There is trouble—serious trouble—on tke British steamer Doric, which arrived from Liverpool last Wednesday night. There | there will be a row, and the Britishers one of the Mongols that came over the side of the Doric into the bay. Better counsels prevailed, however, ana the Chi- nese were allowed to go aboard. “It is just this way,” said Harry Ed- wards, one of the crew, vesterday. “We shipped in Liverpool for a voyage to San Francisco and back to an English port at £4a mouth. Now that weare here we find that our places have been filled by Chi- nese. They wauted to pay us off at once and have “done with the matter, but we can’t see it in that light. “Next they offered to pay our way back to Liverpool, but that was only after the British Consul was called in. We won't accept that offer either, and there is where the trouble comes in. It is just this way. If we went back to a British port on the Doric we would have at least another month’s pay coming touns. Letthe Scuth- ern Pacific pay us a month’s wages and our passage money and the Chinese can have the job just assoon as they please. Of course they could run_the Doric up o British Columbia and discharge us there, but the game would not be worth the can- dle, so I think we will gain our point.” In the meantime the Doric has two crews on board. The Caucasians are handling the vessel while the Chinese are | doing nothing and reveling in_the pros- | pects of doing nothing and still drawing | pay for several days to come. If an at- tempt is made to put the coolies to work say that the chances are that they will | not get the worst of it. RIFLEMEN AT SHELL MOUND. Captain Siebe Will Open the Range for the Summer Season, The rifilemen will be out in full force at | the Shell Mound shooting range to-mor- row. Captain L. Siebe, the proprietor, | will open the park and range for the sum- | mer season under the ausrices of tie Nord- | deutscher Schuetzen Club.

Captain Lees’ Theory Spoil.ed by a New Hobo, Who Slipped on the Question of Time. The Coroner’s jury declared yesterday killed the unidentified burglar in J. L. Franklin's house on the morning of the 17th inst. while defending his own life. That meant to v that the hobo who testified as to Miller inviting him to come to the Franklin house was Iying. Another hobo was introduced into the case yvesterday morning to corroborate the opium fiend of the day before, but they dif- fered fatally in the very essential element of time. Frank Hays, the hobo of the first in- stance, had said that he met Frank Miller, the young butler, on Kearny street be- tween 10 and 12 o’clock on the night of Tuesday, the 11th inst, and that Miller | | had invited him to come to Franklin’s | house the following evening and he would | statements have been corroborated in every | i & - N 25 indicate what I mean. heir verdict that Butie: fEx d ey fer Frank Miller | 11,5 says he is only 19 years old, when, | by his own admissions, covering the time | self at any time. jury, and then Franklin led the Coroner and a number of friends away to dinner. CAPTAIN LEES SPEAKS. He Is of the Bellef That plilier Is Not the Hero Some Believe Him. Captain Lees is quite astonished, in a way, that the Coroner's jury exculpated Frank Miller from all blame. *‘1 am not in a position to say much in the matter of that jury,” he stated, “but | they are not the representative class of men I would have liked to see impaneled in a case so serious as this one is. Asa matter of fact, I do not believe they ren- dered their decision in accordance with the evidence. “Now, I will review the whole case for vou,” he added, *‘but I will preface it by saying that my private opinion is that there is something wrong about Miller. The questicns I asked him when I caused the women to leave the Coroner’s office Added to this, the | he reached this country at 9 years of age. he traveled from State to State, he is more than 22 years of age. “‘He does not properly account for him- It is a positive fact that on the night of Tuesday, when he claims to have been in bed in Franklin’s house at 9 o’clock in the evening, he was not there. The servant girl is positive of this fact, for sbe used Miller's room in which to do her writing until late in the night, when she | left because the place was too lonely. “It was on this Tuesday nignt that the tramp claims he met Miller on Kearny | and Clay streets, walked up to Dupont and down Sacramento. “I wantto say thisabout the tramp: His | Doric, Aboard. | The Tug Millen Griffeth Putting the Chinese, Who Came Over on the Belgic to Take the Places of White Sailors and Firemen on the | oAt | of animation, and of course aroused warm | crets he is not heard a great deal oftener. love lost between them. One gang is com posed of Chinese and the otner of Czucasi- ans. The latter are in possession of the decks and firerooms and refuse to vacate. Ii the Chinese seek to force matiers there will be a fight and tne Mongolians will | surely get the worst of it. British Consul Moore was aboard the | Doric yesterday nearly all the afternoon | | trying to adjust the differences, but failed, and a deadlock has ensued. The white | crew of the ““White Star” steamer insist | on staying by the vessel until she returns | to Liverpool, but the Southern Pacific | Railroad Company, the charterers of the | Doric, insist on putting Chinese in their | lace. ‘‘The ‘octopus’ 18 opposed to white abor, and it will not pay $20 a month for | seamen and firemen when it can get | Chinese to do work for $7 50,” said a | sailor yesterday. ‘When the Doric left England for San | Francisco a crew was shipped at £4 a | month for the trip to this port and back | to an English port. The vessel had barely sailed. however, before the Occidental and | Oriental Steamship Company had con- | tracted in Hongkong for a Chinese crew | to be sent to San Francisco to meet the | steamer here. The Chinese arrivea here on the Belgic last Thursday night, and were transferred to the Doric by the tugz Millen Griffith yesterday. ‘When the tug got. alongside with her horde of coolie laborers aboard the men in possession made a demonstration. They | refused to handle the Mongolians’ bag- gage, and finally a number of the Chinese had to get on board by means of a rope | lowered by the chief officer. They then | put down a rope-ladder and the remainder | of the coolies got aboard, after passing up | their luggage. The Chinese are a fine, | bealthy set of men, and compare more | than favorably with the Chinese crews of the other vessels controlled by Collis P. Huntington. It was when the Chinese had managed to get aboard the Doric that the deadlock occurred. The sailors would not allow the Chinese to take their places, while they themselves refused to work until the diffi- culty was adjusted. It was then that Con- sul Moore was sent for and a representa- tive of the Southern Pacific also putin.an | appearance. The men stated their griev- | ance and the Consul sided with them: | ‘When, however, the railroad company of- fered to pay the men at the rate of £4 a month from the time they left Liverpool up to date and to pay their passage back:| to England the Consul sided with the rail- | road. The men refused the offer, how- | ever, and held the fort, while the Chinese went below and made themselves as com- fortable as possible. While the Millen Griffith was along- side with the Chinese crew aboard a proposition was made to throw the first hooting, which will bz open to all| comers. | All of the other targets on the range will be in use by the following_organizati which will hold their regular m prize shooting: Company A, fantry, N.

Another Entertainment to Be Held at Eintracht Hall in the Mission. From the Goethe-Schilier fair a number | of valuable prizes remain. Also about 700 | of the literary souvenirs of the festival which were sold at that time at 50 cents each are still on hand. In order to dis- pose of these, as well as to bring the fund for the monument up to $10,000, the Goethe-Schiller Monument Association has arranged for a festival under the aus- pices of the turning and singing societies, to be held on the evening of March 8 at Eintracht Hall in the Mission. The pro- gramme will consist of literary exercises, music, singing and. dancing. Tickets are on sale at the following places: A. Becker, 14 Third street; H. Beverson, 535 Fourth street; Robert Cavelle, 118 Montgomery | street, George Rutz, 836 Valencia street; A Schohay, 302 Hayes street; J. Sievers, 25 Post street; A. Entzmann, 308 Battery street; 1. W. Barkhaus, 213 Kearnv street, and Verein Eintracht Hall, 237 Twelith | streer. Each ticket entities a gentleman and as many ladies as he wishes to take to admission to the festival. Thecommittee, of which Mr. A. Entzmann is the chair- nian, is working hard to make this as su cessful as the recent festival at the Pavil- 10n, and it is confidently expected that the necessary sum of money will result. — ————— Louis Schosser Dead.

This writing was compared with some other known to be that of Miller's and certain resemblances were alleged to be traced. But Hays said he had another link to add to his chain, and the result was that E. S. J. Riley, hobo | and draughtsman, was placed on the stand. He said that between 7 and 8 o’clock on | the evening of Tuesday, the 11th, he met Frank Hays on Kearny street, and Havs told him that he had 40 cents and an order | for a suit of clothes, which were to be given to him if he would call for them on the following evening. “What time was it?” asked the Coroner. _ “Between 7 and 8 o'clock 1n the even- ing.” The subsequent testimony of Mr. Riley had little interest for either Captain Lees or the Coroner. Hays was recalled and confessed that he had been a tramp since he was 15 years of age, and had not worked at anything within the past three years, A juryman asked him to explain how it was that while he had met Miller between 10 and 12 o'clock, according to his own story, he (Hays) was able to tell Riley about the interview between 7 and 8 o'clock, according to Riley’s story. This was the first intimation that Hays had of the discrepancy in their testi- mony, and he said he did not know how that was. He confessed to having been arrested a number of times for vagrancy. He was allowed to go. Miller_was recalled and questioned by Captain Lees as to his mental condition, asking him plainly if he considered him- self all right in the head. Miller said he was sure of it; there was nothing wrong with his head. F. J. Knoles, locksmith, testified that he was at the Franklin house early on the day after the killing, examined the locksand wires, and found in the lock of the door leading from the kitchen a broken key. Partofthe key was in the lock, and he extracted it. The escutcheon was in- dented as though some instrument had been forced into it, and the end of the key bore marks as though pliers had been used upon it 2 Detective Bee, J. L. Franklin and others of his housebold and officers of the Cor- oner'sand police force gave further testi- mony or lines that have been covered, and without developing any new featnre to the story. The jury retired, and 1na few minutes returned with the verdict, vindicating the young butler as stated. Mr. Franklin and his family were evi- dently greatly rejoiced, and shook Miller warmly by the hand. Miller thanked the | \ | | | | | respect. He and his friend Riley, another tramp, were begging on the street. Riley | was Lalf a block away from the other fel- low, Hays, who was walking with Miller. | When Hays returned he and Riley went | | to the saloon on Sacramento street where | the tramps generally meet and get their | soup and two glasses of beer for five cents. | It was in this piace Hays told Riley and another man ofp the proposition made to him by Miller—to go to the big white house at California and Baker streets wkere he was to sit on the back steps and get two bundles. “This, remember, was told immediately after the conversation with Miller, and there was no reason for this one tramp to lie to his friends. He.also produced Miller's note, which I have now, giving him directions how to reach the place. “So as to make doubly sure that Hays was telling a straight story I took two hotographs of Miller, one I got from | Portland and another taken here. I mixed them with a dozen others of young men who looked something like Miller and I asked - Hays to pick out the man who had offered him $5and a suit of clothes. He first picked the Portland picture and | then Le picked the other one. “‘Better still, on the day I knew Miller would go 1o the Coroner's office I had Hays stand around there to see if he could recognize Miller when he passed. I re- Temained fifty feet away and watched the proceedings. When Miller came along Hays knew him ata glance and gave me the agreed signal by raising his finger. ‘At that same moment Miller saw Hays and was startled. He immediately drew his handkerchief and wiped his forenead, | covering his face from view. ‘‘As to the condition of affairs at the Franklin house, I will say that it is unsat- isfactory. There is no chance for any one to open that kitchen door from the out- side. The hole made in the wire screen and window would not admit a child’s hand. The carving of the other kitchen door leading into the house was purposely done by an amateur, who cut it in a.bung- ling fashion and without any intent to afford a means of reaching the lock. “The fellow Miller, in my judzment, niust have done all this himself and then tipped a lighted candle over, so as to let the grease drip over the floor. “The remainder of the story can only be surmised. Whether Miller brought " the tramp there or not, whether he shot the tramp or the tramp shot him must be solved by some one else. There is one thing I believe, and that is that for reasons best known to himself, Miller pinched the skin of his neck with his left hand, drew it out and shot through it, so as to make but a slight wound. The bullet went in and came out within a space of quarter of an incu, touching nothing but the cuticle. “In making its exit, however, the bullet carried away the top of Miller’s thumb. 1 | Night Prices—15¢, 25¢, 35¢, 50¢ and 75¢.

The San Francisco Symphony Orchestra Gives Its Fifth Concert in Golden Gate Hall. The fifth concert of the San Francisco | Symphony OrcLestra took place yesterday afternoon in Golden Gate Hall and, as usual, an excellent programme was per- | formed. Yesterday's was a popular concert, con- sisting entirely of semi-classical and pop- | ular music without any symphony. - The | programme opened with the overture to | “Der Freischutz,” which was plaved with | a full appreciation of Weber’s beautiful | orchestration. The transcription of airs | from “Ernani” was rendered with plenty applause, as Verdi in his popular vein is almost sure to do when well render. Another popular number was the Mul- ler-Berghaus arrangement of Liszt's “*Sec- ond Hungarinn Rhapsodie,” which was playea with all due verve and capriciou ness. Handel’s ever popular *‘Largo’” was also on the programme. The soloist was Donald de V. Graham whose singing is so excellent that one re. i | | | Mr. Graham sang with school and finish | Handel's aria from ‘“‘Semele,” “Wnhere | E’er You Walk,” as well as songs by Tosti and Meyer Helmund. The programme was cleverly constructed to pander both to the popular as well as to the more severe musical taste. Inaddi- tion to the numbers above mentioned the | well - known intre’acte Gavotte,” by Gillet, for strings, and Dvorak’s brilliant “*Slavish Dance” No. 2 were played. The whole performance was received with warm applause by a thoroughly apvre- ciative audience. The attendance showed a marked increase in numbers, and was a visible proof of the fact that the enterprise | of the musicians in organizing concerts of their own is meeting with the public ap- preciation it deserves.
