THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1896. 9 DURRMNT WILL | MAKE ANSWER Case for Presentation to the Supreme Court All Made Up. Oral Arguments Will Supple- ment Care'ully Prepared Briefs. Under the Stipulation B:tween the Attorneys the Time for Delay Has Expired. Theodore Durrant's attorneys will to- ow file their answer to Attorney- | eral F rald’s stinging reply brief in the Supreme Court. This is in obedi- epce to the stipulation entered into on the t. between Attorney-General Fitz- gerald, General Dickinson and Eugene F. Deuprey, in which the time for Durrant’s | attorneys to act in this regard was limited | to ten days. Notice may not have been attracted much by the fact that on the 21st inst. the order of submission was not set aside. That order stands, and the stipulation | concerning the ten days prevents any fur- | ther delay in getting at the final hearing | | on the merits of Durrant’s avppeal, consci- entiously and laboriously prepared by his attorneys, through which Durrant hopes to secure a new trial, The oral arguments of the Attorney- General and of Messrs. Dickinson and Deuprey will follow the filing of the an- | swer to the Attorney-General's brief in pehalf of the people. "Therefore all that can be said for Darrantand all that can be said against the appeal on the part of the people will soon be uttered, and there is reason to suppose that the proceedings will be attended with much greater inter- | est than customarily churacterizes pro- ceeaings in the Supreme Court. ! Some curiosity is naturally expressed concerning the contents of the answer which will be filed by Durrant’s attorneys. Messrs. Dickinson ana Deuprey in their brief attacked tie witnesses for the people claim to have seen Durrant about the | church where the bodies of Blanche La- | ment and Minnie Williams were feund. They wound up with the assertion that urrant is innocent. On the other hand eneral Fitzgerald expressed the opinion in his reply brief that the wit- nesses were credible, that Darrant’s alibi was not sound, d that the circumstan- tial evidenc st Durrant pointed him out the guilty person. Many appeals are brought before the court by prisoners condemned of murder and several are now pending. This may hdve influenced the Attorney-General to e on the hearing of the case in which of the public attention is centered. Jawyers and others will probably 0 to the final presentation of the are gament, pro and con, to the Supreme Cc . Then that tribunal will take the matter under advisement and the life of Durrant may depend on the result. ROSS JACKSON BETTER, Passed Successiully Through a Severe Operation Yester- day.

AN ARTIST'S VACATION. Edward Cucuel’s Return to San Fran- cisco After an Absence of Five Years. Edward Cucuel, one of the prominent artists of the New York Herald, is visit- ing his family and friends in San Fran- cisco. He arrived here the day before Christmas and will leave for New York in a few days. Mr. Cucuel studied in the San Francisco Art School under Director Matthews and was subsequently attached to THE CALL's staff of artists, He went to Paris from San Francisco and devoted four years’ time abroad to the study of art in illustration. He illustrated for the Parisian press before he was engaged on the New York Herald. In Paris Mr. Cucuel met many Ameri- can students, and among them quite a number from Caiifornia. Redmond Thorndyke, Fonda, Seawell and Altman bave made markea progress. Altman’s work has received the highest recognition. The big French painters, like Jerome, fancy American boys, preferring them to the English., Cas aigne, whose work in the Century has attracted so much notice, was very popular in Paris. Mr. Cucuel tells of many interesting in- cidents of his student life in Paris. Com- modore Harry Gillig was in Paris last year nd gave the American artists a swell inner, which lasted all night. Special | care was taken to rally all the Cali ornians in the Latin Quarter, and the banquet was one of the events of the season. The American students in Paris have formed an association or club, and the institution has attained great popularity. CARNIVAL COLDAS AFLOAT Programme of the Polk-Street Fiesta to Begin This Alfternoon. A King and a Santa Claus Wil! Ap. pear Togzether in the Gorgeous Procession “Polk Street and Progress” is the motto of the grand Polk-street fiesta to be held in that thoroughfare on the afternoons and evenings of to-day and to-morrow. There will be a programme of amuse- ments and entertainment that will doubt- less fill the street with visitors from Sut- ter to Pacific. Polk street is the pioneer in improve- ment and will c te the lighting of herself with a carnival of splendor. Ata final meeting of the Polk-street club last Saturday all arrangements for the fete were completed, and in addition to the parade of the improvement clubs of the City, headed by military bands, a King of His majesty, who is known off his throne as Max Trenna, will exercise his royal preroga- tive and receive from the Mayor at 1 o’clock Wednesday the keys of Polk street. Then the carnival will commence. There will be floats and decorated wagons, each typical of some_industry connected with the sureet. For these prizes will be given, as aiso_for the best sustained grotesque advertisement by a member of tha club. A number of socie- ties will join in the procession, which will terminate with & Santa Claus drawn by reindeer in the orthodox sleigh, te char- acter being represented by George Rob- erts, who will shower gifts on the popu- lace in right royal fashion. The parade will be under the direction | of Professor L. Heuman and Secretary Fred Curtiss of the Polk-street Improve- ment Club. The whole of the street from Sutter to Jackson will be dressed in flags and lanterns on each line of the side- walks. The bannerets will be alternately rea and orange, the fiesta colors, and appro- priate mottoes will be strung across each block. The fireworks display will con- tinue through both evenings, ending at | the close of the New Year with a set piece | 40x15 feet, representing the departure of a decrepit 1896 and the advent of a vigor- ous young new 1897. The piece, at the stroke of midaight, will be fired amid a salvo of rockets and shells. The display will finish with the words, “A Happy New Year to You.” The clubrooms, 1412 Polk street, will be open to those who wish to engage in danc- ROSS JACKSON. [From a photograph by the Imperial.] Mr, Jackson was liable to live for a long time. In other words there was no imme- diate danger of death. Goncerning the rumor Dr. Keeney was quite indignant, calling it foolish. He also said that he could speak more definitely to-day. Mr. Jackson is one of the best known - of Pacific Coast newspaper writers. He bas been city editor of the Examiuner aud Alta and was formerly connected with the local staff of the Chronicle. Having worked for news- pavers for fifieen years ue retired upon )"oming into an inheritance from the es- ate of his father, who was a banker at ' Paterson, N. J. Mr. Jackson has been prominently connected with the Press Club from the date of its organization.

Supervisors Were Without Juris- diction to Order the Work Done. Dezcision Concerning Many Property- Owaners Rendered by the Supreme Court Yesterday. The Supreme Court yesterday handed down a decision of much interest to owners of real estate on Union street, between Larkin and Franklin. The case 1s known as that of Spaulding against Wesson and others, Wesson, the defendant in the suit, became vested in 1872 with a title to a 100-vara lot, which had been granted by Leavenworth, then Alcalde of San Francisco, in 1848. This 100-vara lot embraced the premises of ‘Wesson, and also a portion of Union street fronting thereon. A part of Union street, sitnated be- tween Larkin anda Franklin, is in what is known as the Leaguna survey. In this tract were several 100-vara lots, which were conveyed by Leavenworth in 1848, these being contiguous to each other with- out any intervening street. Union street was projected through the tract by the Van Ness ordinance, but it has been held in Scott vs. Dyer, 54 Cal., 430, that by the Leavenworth grants the grantees became the absolute owners of the lands granted and that no portion of these lands conld be appropriated to the use of the public as a street, except upon making compensa- tion therefor. Anugust 13, 1877, a resolution was adonted by the Board of Supervisors ordering the grading of Union sireet from Larkin to the westerly line of Frankiin. After the work was done action was begun to re- cover the street assessment upon the land of Wesson. Judgment was rendered for the plaintiff. Spaulding an¢ the defend- ants appealed. The lower court found that the Supervisors had acquired juris- diction to order the work at the daie of the passage of the resolution, The de- fendants contested this strongly. The Supreme Court finds that the Supervisors had no jurisdiction and has remanded the case for a new trial. A part of the decision of the court is in- teresting, as it defines the exact status of the land granted by Leavenworth, ‘The street improvement act,” so the decision reads, ‘under which these proceedings were had, zave to the Board of Supervisors authority to order the improvement of only public streets; and when it was shown that tue greater part of Union street between Larkin and Franklin was held in private ownership and had not been dedicated to pubiic use, it was clear that the order for its grading and all the proceedings taken thereunder were with- out authority and were ineffectual to cre- ate a lien upon adjacent lands.’’ A dedication of the street in front of one lot, the court also found. would not have the eftect to dedicate other portions of the street which were hela by different owners. The improvement of the "Street from Larkin to Franklin was an entirely, and unless the Bourd of Supervisors had jurisdiction to order the grading of the whole of that portion of the street no por- tion of the expense could be made a lien upon the defendant’s lot. The entire cost of the grading was by the act to be assessed upon the entire frontage, and each lot at a rate per front foor sufficient 1o cover the total expense of the work. There was no aunthority td charge the defendant’s lot with the bur- den of any portion of the expense of grad- ing private property adjacent thereto which lay within the lines of the streef, and an assessment which included such charges would be invalid. Unless there was jurisdiction in the municipality to make the iniprovement at the time the or- der was passed such jurisdiction counld not be established by a subsequent dedication of the street. ASA FISK'S HEALTH. It Is Said to Have Been Falling for Some Time. Asa Fisk, the well-known money-broker, is failing in health, although his family do not feel any alarm regarding his condi- tion. His son Arthur said yesterday that his father bad been confined to the house at Hayes and Buchanan streets for some months, haying snpifered from pneumonia, which he had succeeded in overcoming. Latterly, however, he bad seemed to be breaking up owing to advanced age. Mr. Fisk is in his eighiieth year. He came to this City from Boston, a widower, with two children, about twenty years |§o, married again and has had three children born to him by his second wiie. From a capital of $20,000 be is said by shrewdness to have accumulated property worth about $400,000 since his arrival in this City. About three months ago he closed bis Montgomery-street office, but has since transacted business ai his resi- dence. LSV SR THE BIG BENEFIT. An Exéeptionally Strong Bill for the Printers’ Aid.

An Ovation to Majr-General Frank J Herron in Dubuque, Icwa. The Hero Mav Be Recognizad by President-E ect McKinley’s Admin straticn. There are not many survivors of the war for the preservation of the Unior who at- tained the rank of major-general for gal- lant service on the field of battle. One of the few living heroes is Major-General Frank J. Herron, whose military record makes a bright page in the history of Iowa soldiers. It is said that he was the youngest major-general in the Union army. It was his good fortune to com- mand the army that fought the battle of Prairie Grove, Ark., and there he achieved a brilliant and substantial victory. This gallant soldier went to the front at Presi- dent Lincoln’s first call for troops. He left his home in Dubuque, Iowa, with the Governor's Greys, which became Com- pany I, First Iowa Infantry, and gained renown for bravery at the battle of Wil- sons Creek. At the head of the First Iowa fell the noble General Nathaniel Lyon. When tbe Ninth Towa was organized at Dubuque Frank J. Herron was commis- sioned lieutenant-colonel of the regiment. At the battle of Pea Ridge, Ark,, March 6, 7 and 8, 1862, where Generals Curtis, Ashboth, Siegel, Carr, Dodge and Jeff C. Davis commanded the Union forces and Generals Van Doren, Price, McCullough, Mcintosh and Rains led the Confeder- ates, the Ninth Iowa bore a prominent art. Colonel Herron was wounded dur- ing the hard fighting of the second day. About the time that Herron fell General Ben McCullough and General McIntosh of the Confederate army were slain. It was the fortuneof war that the wounded colonel should fsllinto the enemy’s hands. Recovering from his wounds he was ex- changed and appointed to lead the army against the Coniederate general Hindman, At Prairie Grove the battle which gave the Southwestto the Union was won by General Herron. General Herron, now 65 years of age, recently received an ovation at Dubuque, Jowa, his old home, which has attracted National attention. Returning from Mex- ico,where he has interests in silver mines, he was invited to a reunion of his com- rades at Dubuque. All classes of Feaple joined in a demonstration of welcome. For three days his rooms at the Hotel Julien were thronged wich visitors. He aid visits to Grand Army posts, went to Einwood Cemetery and attended the Sec- ond Presbyterian Churcn_ with his old friend, Senator Allison. It is mentioned in the Dubuque papers, which gave elabo- rate accounts of the reception, that when General Herron and the oid Governor's Grays left Dubuque in 1861 for the war not one of the members of the present Gover- nor’s Grays was born. ITowa people reverence thé men who went to the front in 1861, and no citizen of the State is held hi-her in public esteem than General Frank Herron. He isnow in his inteilectual prime. His ability and years of experience qualify him for public place of high station. It is said that the ifowa delegation in Congress will ask Major McKSlmey to tender to General Her- ron an appointment worthy of the hero. A dauchter of General Herron resides in San Francisco, the wifeof Judge Henry C. Dibble.
