THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1896. of nature for years past, since he first di- verted his thought from portrait and still- life work to landscape painting, and with what success his endeavors to vproduce something that would cause people to talk about it may be seen in this partica- lar picture. In hissstudio on Post streel one may trace the aruist’s steady climbing upward in his portrayal of nature—a brauch of work which is, totally distinct from the already mature results in portraiture and tne studies of still lifeund genre. Th_rcugh the varions moods of nature there is not only a clear evidence of development of thought and feeling and technique, but it is plainly to be seen that the artist has re- ceived many delightful impressions, and these are presented with increasing power until the climax isreached in “The Gather- i ing Storm."" A characteristic feature of ¥r. Cade- nasso’s painting is its “‘outdoor” quality. He has painted considerable in the open | air with the result that his sketchesand finished pictures alike are fall of i sunizht and real, living, vibrating atmos- | phere. In explaining this sunlir brilliancy and atmosphere effect the artist says very modestly: *I like to paint and study in the open air because I get the true ’efrer,r. { which is not possible in the studio.’ 5 “The Gathering Scorm” is full of this quality, which, combinea, of course, with the impression of tragedy in the elements, males itself apparent in the overhanging heaviness. This picture ison a large can- vas. It represents an opening in .the woods where cattle are grazing near a UNPAID BILLS 0F PALO ALTO Musical ~Students Must Ferego Their Northern Trip: | — "D:cision of the Executive Com- mittee Causes Great Dis- satislaction.

He Gave Notice That the Case Would Come Up in Los Angeles. ORDER MAY BE MODIFIED, Durrant’s Attorneys Express Confi. dence That Their Num:rous Points Will Bs Haard. Attorney-General Fitzeerald said yester- day, concerning the order of the Bupreme Court, in session at Les Angeles, to sub- mit the appeal of Theodore Durrant for decision without briefs, that the action of the court has not surprised him. “1 notified General Dickinson,” said Attorney-General Fifzgerald, “that I wanted to have the appeal disposed of by the Supreme Court during the Los Angeles session. Idid not want to have the case drag along and was fully determined to proceed. Mr. Anderson, Assistant Attor- ney-General, has stated facts correctly to the Supreme Court under a request for in- formation. The facts are as foilows: “The transcript on appeal was filed by Durrant’s attorneys July 29. TUndar the rule of the court they had ten days in which to file their brief. On August 7, one day before the time for filing the brief had expired under the rule, the court or- dered that twenty days’ more time be given. I had previously refused to grani the extension desired by counsel. The order of the eourt gave the attorneys un- til August 28 to make their filing. They have never filed their brief with the court. “I have never had any understanding with Durrant’s counsel more than this: General Dickinson came to me to ask for further time. I at first refused to agree to that, but subsequently, did say that if the brief should be put in within ten days that would be all right. That put the matter over until September 7. Some install- mrents of a brief were handed to me in type-written copy, but not all. I told General Dickinson emphatically that the matter must be disposed of and would be disposed of at Los Angeles. “There were two things for them to do at Los Angeles. One was to submit the appeal on brief, and the other was to bave made an oral argument if they so wished. They have taken neither course. Idonot wish it understood tbat I blame the attor- neys. At the same time I wish it fully understood that I made known to them just what they might expect. “The court can of course modify or set aside the order for the submission of the appeal without briefs. That is entirely within the discretion of the court. When I notified Durrant’s counsel. about the matter, all that I wanted was to get in their appeal early enough to let me file a brief answer in time for the Los Angeles session. I would never have objected to their filing a brief, even if long after the :len days allotted, but that has not been one.” The action of the Supreme Court has in- terested Durrant and his counsel alii:e, for Durrant’s attorneys have been at work preparing 235 points of error which they consider important. They have reduced 140 exceptions to the proceedings during Durrant’s trial in the Sepreme Court to writing. Eugene N. Deuprey said yester- day that he belicved that the Supreme Court will give time for counsel to com- plete their brief, upon which both he and {eneral Dickinson have worked. This means that the facts will be fully presented to the Supreme Court, which may act dii- ferently when a life 1s at stake than might e the case under other circumstances. A condensed history of the Darrant case up to date is as follows: Information filed against Durrant May 22, 1895; verdict found November 1, 1895; sentence of death pronounced December 6, 1895; notice of appeal filed Decemuer 9, 1895; travscript on avpeal filed in the Supreme Court July 29, 1896; court gave twenty days from August 8 to file points and authorities; writ of probable cause granted by Chier Justice Beatty September 5, 1896, The records of the Supreme Court have no entry showing that a brief on appeal has been filed, for none has been placed on file. While the order of the Supreme Court, which, if not modified or set aside, would shut out from consideration by the court the 235 points of errors upon which Dur- rant bases the hepe ti%t his life may be spared. or that be may have another | ehance for nis life, the general opinion of lawyers is that the ecourt will listen to any presentation that Messrs. Dickinson and Deuprey may offer and show ciemency. Mr. Deuprey says that counsel have been as diligent as possible in the'prepara- tion of their brief on appeal. The arrange- ment with Attorney-General Fitzgerald was that the Attorney-General snould be served with advance sheets of the brief, and this has been done as far as the work has nrogressed. General Dickinson has | been” assisted by other attornevs and the brief contains strong points. There were 2410 pages to go over and be carefully re- viewed, and it was utterly impossible that any such amount of work could be per- formed in ten or twenty days. Durrant expressed little anxiely when told of the news fron: Los Angeles. He said that he felt secure and had confidence in his attorneys. HOW HICKS DIED. A Coroner’s Jury Practically Charges J. A. Mitchell With Murdering His Purtner, A Coroner's jury yesterday practically charged J. A. Mitchell with the murder cf B. T. Hic Altogether six wiinesses were examined, though nothing that has not already been published was brouent ont. A. 8. Grant was probably the most important witness called. He had an office next door to that of Mitchell & Hicks, and about 2:20 o’clock heard loud talking, followed almost immediately by a pistol shot. Then came three loud snrieks, but from whom the witness could not say. The other witnesses examined were Dr. George L. Fitch, J. ¥. McCrosson, A. W. Scott, James Cook and J. E. Becker. Mitchell was present during the inquest, but }eluud on the advice of bis counsel to testify, The jury, after a few minutes’ delibera- tion, returned a verdict of death from gun- sbot wound, and that the ‘‘gunshot was inflicted by J. A. Mitchell.” Six other inquests were held by Coroner Hawxins, resuiting as foilows: J. A. Kear- ney, carelessness; ' George Pabst, -acci- dent; J. C. Moore, suicid:; Jacob Spath, unknown; William T, Hamilton, suicide; Frank C. Bell, heart disease. In the case of Kearney the jury decided that the de- ceased came to his death by his own care- Jessness, but censure the California-street Railroad for not havine proper fenders, ————— TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY.

Dear Sir: Feeling that you have an inter- est in seeing the Democratic administration in the United States perpetuated, and to that end are anxious that the Democratic ticket be successful in the coming election, it has been decided to ask of you a volun- necessary expenses of the present campaign. It is trusted that your patriotic sentiments and sound Democracy will prompt _you to re- spond without delay. ; This being a Presidential election, con- tributions should be more liberal than where only the interests of one State are involved. Having often been asked our opinion, it has been decided that three per cent of a yearly salary would be a reasonable and fair con- tribution. : If your circumstances are such that you cannot contribute this amount, any reason- able contribution will be thankfully re- ceived. Those who are not receiving a pecuniary benefit from the fact that we have & Demo-| cratic administration cannot be expected to contribute, when no contributions have been| received from those who are enjoying the di_| rect benefit cf the administration. Do not force us to the conclusion by your silence that you consider the proposition unfavor- ably, but let us hear from you at once. This committee has, up to the present time, received far less than enough to pay the legitimate expenses of an economical cam- paign, and far less than has ever been placed at the disposal of any State Committee here- tofore: . I enclose you herewith a copy of the opinion of our legal committee, the original of which I hold at this office. \ Yours respectfully, (Signed) William H.

THE MIDDLE CLASSES‘ A Powerful Co-Operative Society to Aid Them In Australin and Now Zealand. Among the arrivals here on the steamer Morowai yesterday from New Zealand and Australia was Joseph Clay, Benjamin Jones and William Stokes, representa- tives of the Manchester Co-operative So- cicty of Manchester, Encland. Theobject of the society is to benefit the middle classes, by dealing direct with them and thas avoid middlemen, thereby making a saving to the users of various necessary supplies. i | Several Real Estate Firms Re- pudiate the New Asso- ciation. The Use of Their Names as Officers Was Entirely Unau- thor z d. Not all the real estate tirms of the City have joined the *“Real Estate Agen:s’ and Property-owners’ Association.” * In fact, the leading firms in that line have not only not done so, but yesterday they laid siege to newspaper offices begging that tbe public be informed that they repudi- ate the whole affair. F. J. Harmes of Madison & Burke, ac- cording to the reports given out the day | before, had been elected to the office of first vice-president of the new organiza- | tion. I had nothing to do with it and the whole thing was entirely unauthorized,” said Mr. Harmes yesterday, readjusting his hot collar. “I was not at the meeting, was not even informed that it was to take place. Do you sec that stack of election cards on my desk? Why, it seems to me every spieler for every candidate ranning for office has been here asking me to have the association indorse his man. As Iun- derstand it, from what I have learned to- day, the candidates to be indorsed by the asspciation are required to put up $10 | each. Itlooksto me like a mere piece club and this firm wants nothing to do | with it, and further than that, it is very | much disgusted at baving its name used Tne co-operative society, it is claimed, | has £7,000,000 behind it.” Goods are fur- nished at the lowest rate, and the products of erowers are taken at the hizhest rate. The gentlemen assert that in this way the middle classes are enabled to save at least 50 per cent. They say they have looked over the field in the two countries and talked to many peopic, and the result is they expect tc ship goods there and also to take (ueir mutton, beef and other prod- ucts and ship them to England.

He readily confessed, of course, that it was an _unwarranted as- sumption on his part. So I wrote out the following and had him sign it: SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 22, 1896, In justice to Mr. J. T.
