4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, JANUARY 23, 1897. WOULD DIVIDE KERN COUNTY Taxpayers Desire to Let Randshurg Govern Itself. Foresee Bankruptcy Resulting From the Punishment of Crime. Fiva Homicides Already Recorded on the Records of the Superior Court. LOS ANGELES, Ca usual condition cf County. obtains in Kern A large number of the leading citizens are not only willing to have their county severed in twain, but are really jubilant at the prospect of such a division and are ready to aid a bill in the State Legisiature with that end in view. This position of the leading tax-payers of Kern is in startling contrast to that heretofore maintained by wealtny residents on the question of county division. These peo- ple heretofore have invariably fought county division tooth and nail. Thereis aspecial reason for their change of atti- tude. They want to cut loose from the new mining country abont Randsburg. They see bankruptcy staring the county in the face unless something can be done. Randsburg is 125 miles from the county seat, Bakersfield. and as the miners at the desert camp are very troublesome, five | homicides having slready occurred, the expense bills are growing so fast that to pay them means not a dollar for roads or other improvements. The fate of Trinity County is scaring the Kern people. The Littlefield murder case up north, with the accompanyiug enor- mous expense for witnesses, processes, etc., has left the mountain county not only without a dollar in the treasury but badly in debt. Either the same condition of aifairs or else a huge tax rate confronts the Kern people, and that is why they are praying for the Randsburgites to form their own county. An insurmountable obstacle is at pres- ent in the way, for the constitution pro- vides that no new county shall be formed with less than 5000 inbabitants, and as there are between 3000 ard 4000 only on the Rand the ouly way to make up the de- ficiency would be to include a large quantity of farming land, with its seitlers, and these farmers the Kernites do not de- sire f the Randsburg boom to lose. If keeps up it will beall right two years irom now to go shead and create a new county, butat present things will have to stay as they are. SRR CHARGE CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD Nephews and Nieces of the Late Mrs, Concepcion Alaniz Contest Her Will. LOS ANGELES, CAL, Jan. 22.—What promises to be one of the most sensational will contests ever adjudicated in the courts of tnis county was begun this forencon before Judge Clark of the Superior Court. The litigation was instituted to permit the probate of what purports to be the last will of Mrs. Concepcion Alaniz, who gied in this city on July 11, 1596, leaving con- | siderable real and personal property. The estate is valued in the petition at $19,000, but is claimed by the contestants to be worth $30,000. The offered will was filed for probate by Mrs. A. Concepcion W. de Rubio, who is named as the executrix, though not a rela- | By its provisions, | tive of the deceased. By the entire estate is given to Mrs. Cayeiano Alaniz de Casenave, a niece of deceased. The contestants of the will are nephews snd nieces. They are Bernabe Leiong, Juan Bantista Lelong, Victor Leiong, Marie Louisa Begue, Dorothea Alaniz Pool, Mrs. Maria Nesvion and Dolores Romero. At the time was advanced i Mrs. Alaniz’s death she years. The contestants assert that there was a couspiracy to de- | fraud the old lady of her property, dating back quite a number of years. They claim that it was originally a conspiracy between Mrs. Casenave and her husband, Pierre Casenave. At that time they say the con- spiracy consisted of a successful attempt on their pari to have Mrs. Alaniz deed her property to Pierre Casenave, and that he afterward deeled it to his wife. These transfers were made the subject of a sui in the Superior Court, brought against Casenave and his wife before the old lady’s death, and the contestants set forth the details of tke trial of that suit, and the judgment rendered by the courtde- claring the deed void on the ground of frand. After this Pierre Casenave died, and the conlestants claim that his widow and Mrs. Rubio then formed a conspirecy to per- suade Mrs. Alaniz to make the will which it is now sought to break. They charge them with keeping Mrs. Alaniz under their control, snd allege that by various arts they prejudiced her against her other relatives so that she would not have any- thing to do with them. The case will be trieda before a jury, that having been asked for and granted. It took the entire forencon to empanel the jury, and this afternoon the tuking of tesiimony was begun. There is quite an array o counsel in the case, and their fees will make guite an inroad into the estate. —_— PLAINT OF SOCIETY WOMEN. Friday Morning Club Decides to Bamish Reporters From Its Social Functions. LOS ANGELES, Can, Jan. 22.—The “yulgar society reporters” of this city re- ceived another dark eye at the hands of their sisters of the Friday Morning Clab to-day. The discussion of this forenoon was undoubtedly precipitated by the action of several wealthy women residing in the western part of the city, who re- cently formed a1 ague to withhold sl in- formation about purely society functions from the society reporters. These were pronounced ‘“‘unspeakably importunate,” not to say “vulgar,” and it was decided by these good women to banish the whole lot. Mrs. P. C. Severance led the discussion to-day, stating that the publishing of modern society events in the papers should be suppressed; but she admitted during the discussion which followed that the proper mention of social events, the character of the entertainment and names of guests might be allowed, but that all descriptions of dress, jewels,. decorations and such minute details were highly dis- pleasing to the average society woman. Many of the ladies present spoke in favor of modified reports of events as be- ing proper and appreciated, but nearly all agreed upon the vulgarity of minute par- ticulars of dress, as is often published in society columns of the newspapers, Mrs, Severance stated that the fault lay not with reporters alone, but with those in social life who encouraged such vulgar de- seriptions. —_— Proving a Murderer Insane. LOS ANGELES, Car, Jan. 22.—The testimony to-day in the trial of J. Barthel- man for the murder of his wife was of a nature mainly to prove the prisoner’'s in- sanity. A. C. Golsh testified that the de- fendant bad told bim that his wife was oversensitive and always complained be- cause she could not have the luxuries of life, He al o stated that he expected Bar- thelman to go crazy on the subject of his wife and child. Medical testimony was introduced at the afternoon session tend- ing to prove the theory of insanity. e i | Noted Cherokees Fisit the Coa LOS ANGELES, Jan. 22.—The family of Chief Mays, the famous Cherokee In- dian sachem, arrived here this morning. | The' party consisted of Mrs. M. D. Mays, wife of the chief; Miss Mary Mays, his daughter; Miss 8. H. Mays, the chiefs sister, and Mrs. R. M. Bryan. They left immediately for San Diego, but will shortly return. Chief Mays got his money during the CLerokee apportionment, about four years ago. He is worth over ——— Suicide’s Bffects to Be Sold. LOS ANGELES, CAL, Jan. 22.—Judge Clark to-day made an order directing the Public Administrator to dispose of the personal effects of the late J. F. Maguire, consisting of a horse and certain jewelry. Magnire was empleyed on the police force, but became seriously entangled in several lisisons and chose suicide in preference to | flight. He waded into the water at West Lake Park one night about a year and a half ago and shot himself in the head. —_— Blind Man Brutally Beaten. LOS ANGELES, CAL., Jan. 22.—William Johnson, a blind negro, was assaulted this afternoon by Gus Harris, another negro, and beaten terribly on the head \\'ili a rock. He is in a precarious condition.

They have completed their investigations here and will leave in a few days for S8an Francisco. CANADIAN PRESS SCORED. Bering Sea Commission Denmounces a Dispatch Reflecting Upon the American Counsel. VICTORIA, B. C., Jan. 22.—Before the Bering Sea Claims Commission this morn- | ing Counsel Peters took occasion to deny | a dispatch concerning the proceedings of | the commission, published in several | Eastern papers on the 13th inst., which | stated that “of late marked coldness ex- | isted between the American and Cana- | dian counsel.” As far as members of the | commission were concerned, he said, no | explanation was needed, and he bore tes- | timony to the fact that he had never been | engaged in any litigation where more | pleasant relations existed. | But this newspaper paragraph, he said, | might mislead people. It went on to | give as a reason for the supposed coldness that a certain witness on behalf of Great Britain had been drugged to prevent his | giving testimony in the limited time given | the British side for presentinga certain | class ot evidence. Mr. Peters, on looking over the testi- | mony, bad found that this witness had given his evidence as far back as Decem- | ber 22, and it was well that the public | should know that never, at any time, had the counsel for Great Britain been limiied | as to tbe time in which to put in their | evidence. He expliained that he made | this statement without suggestion or con= | sultation with the United States counsel. Mr. Dickinson made a polite acknowl- edgment of the British counsel’s cour- | tesy. Of course, be said, if such u state- | ment as had appeared was publisbed in the United States, where the counsel were known, it would be considered as-abso- jutely false. The statement was quite im- material in so far as the United States | counsel were concerned. Justice King, British Commissioner, closed this little incident with a few re- marks from the bench. Like Mr. Peters, he was surprised at the article pubiished, | for it was not only fiction, but malicious fiction. He bore evidence of the pleasant rela- tions between the counsel for both coun- tries, and said he never had seen any- where a better feeling existing in any case on which he hud been engaged. He was very sorry that the statement had been made in the newspapers, and he would liked 10 have known who started the rumor, so that it might be seen whether this court was able to reach him. He de- sired on behalf of the commission that every pap'r in Canada which had pub- lished anything in reference to this rumor correct it. 2ot T e FLED FROM PHENIX. One of the City's Wealthiest Men Disap- pears to Escaps Prosecution for Bigamy. PHENIX, Arz., Jan. 22.—Ail Pheenix is agog over the flight of E. Irvine, one of | the city’s wealthiest and hitherto most | respected citizens, who departed hastily | to avoid prosecution for bigamy. He had | resided here for more than twenty years, | and bad a wife and eight children. His son, J. A. R, Irvine, bya former wife, who is dead, is also a prominent business man, and has a large family, Six years ago a putative nephew, T. E. | Irvine, came from Canada and the three organized the Irvine Company, stationers and booksellers, of which T. E. [rvine has been man ager. About a year ago the latter’s ‘mother and sister followed him and located here. It now transpires that T. E. Irvine is a son of E. Irvine, instead of a nephew, and that his mother was a second wife whom E. Irvine had aban- | doned twenty-seven years ago, and from | whom he bad never been divorced. The relationship was kept a profound secret until to-day, as -all wished to avoid a scandal. E. Irvine had arranced with wife number two to support her, and also deeded to her 100 lots in the Irvine Addition to Pucenix. He failed to provide for her, and when pressed to keep his word he borrowed $3000 on. his property and fled abouta week ago. Owing to the prominence of all concerned and the standing ot the fugi- tive, the news fél! like a thunderbolt 6n the people of Pheenix. Much sympathy is felt for the victims of his rascality. It is'not known how the affair will be settled, but probably the courts will be call upon to unravel the case. E. Irvine started for Santa ‘Barbara when he left here, but it is believed he has left the country without intending to re- tarn. He is supposed to have a fortune estimated at $35,000 or $40,000. His first wife will apply for a divorce at once. durirtatide Stoekton’s Epidemic of La Grippe. SBTOCKTON, CAL, Jan. 22.—An epi- demic of 1a grippe is prevalent here now. It is not only affecting the people of Btockton, but is attacking the horses as well. Several years ago la grippe was rag. ing among the citizens of this county and carried away a uumber of the most prom- inent land-owners. The present epidemic does not seem to be serious, yet many peo- vle have been stricken with it and a num- -ber are seriously ill. Btockton has thead- vantage of being one of the healthiest and best-sewered towns on the coast, and the death rate here for years has been yery low. No deaths have yet been reported from the epidemic. ——— Rotten Journalism And journalists are diagnosed with candor and dispatch in to-day’s News Letter, DEADLOCKS IN ~ THREE STATES Ninth Senatorial Ballot at Olympia Shows No Change. In Utah the Struggle Is Now Between Henderson and Thatcher. Idaho Legislators Fail in Att:mpts to Name a Successor to Dubois. OLYMPIA, Wask., Jan. 22.—Three bal- lots for United States Senator were taken to-day. After the eighth ballot Clark Davis, ten days ago considered the strongest Populist candidate, withdrew. His support on the ninth baflot scattered among other Populistcandidates. Warner (D.) who has been voting with the Popu- lists, made & strong Squire speech and then in a sarcastic manner cast his vote for Turner. It1sexpected that to-morrow he will go to Squire, hoping to start a stampede, but 1t will not work. Hodgdon (Pop.) on this ballot cast his vote for a gold Republican, which caused a sensa- tion, but on the next ballot he changed back to a Populist. Turper and Cline are two strong men. The ninth ballot resulted: Cline 17, Daniels 18, Turner 24, Denny 26, Winsor 11, Squire 5, scattering 10. Little if eny change is expected to-morrow. The Turner call for a caucus has not yet re- ceived fifty-seven names, though hard work is being done along that line. The Populiststare afraid of it. e UTAH'S SENATORIAs CONTEST. Henderson and Thatcher Have the Race to Themselves. SALT LAKE, Uran, Jan. 22.—The Legislative vote for United States Senator to-day was as follows: Thatcher (D.) 24, Henderson (D.) 20, Rawlins (D.) 13, Con- gressman Allen (R.) 3, Lawrence (Pop.) 1, scattering 2. This shows a gain of three for Thatcher and one for Henderson over yesterday’s vote. Three of the four Populists voted for Thatcher and one of the Rawlins men went over to Henderson. Rawiins is con- sidered practically out of the race, ana his witharawal would be no surprise. It will be a close race between Thatcher and Henderson, with the possibility of a dead- lock and the prize going to a dark horse. McCune, Bowers, Harris and Thurman are most prominentiy mentioned in this connection. The Mormon ckurch authorities are making a bitter fight on Thatcher, and the interesting point Is that most of his supporters in the Legislature are Mormons who oppose church interference. Ty IDAHO'S DEADLOCK. Populists Return to Claggett and Demo- orats Are duilen. BOISE, IpAno, Jan. 22.—The ‘Populists in the Legislature to-day switched back to Claggett for United States Senator, the ballott resulting as follows: Claggett (Pop.) 27, Dubois (silver R.) 26, Nelson (Pop.) 15, Lewis (Pon.) 1, Parkinson 1. Nelson received his votes from the Dem- ocrats. It is predicted that to-morrow's ballot will show & change in favor of Du- bois, upon the belief that the Claggett men will not consent to the election of any other Populiet, and on the announced determination of the Democrats not to join in the election of the Populist favor- ite. One of the Populist leaders says, however, that 2 deadlock is on and there is no telling when it will be broken, as be did not believe either Claggett or Dubois coula draw enough Democratic votes to elect. The Democrats are sullen and silent, and if they have agreed upon any plan of action they are keeping it to themselves. e T In Nevada's Legislature.

SAN JOSE, CaL., Jan. 22.—The defend- ant was put on the stand to-day in the trial of Robina Grabiella for the murder of Vicenzo Esebello. His plea was seli- aefense. Grabiella said he and Esebello met at the residence of the Zamarillos, west of town, in the afternoon, and played carda and drank wine together until about 7 o’clock, when they started for town. He said Esebello renewed a quarrel they bad had nearly two vears ago, during which the defendant had been cut with a razor on the face and arm, and threatened to repeat the proceeding. The row at that time 1.ad resulted from Esebello grabbing & purse of money from the defendant, but when the officers were sent for he returned the coin. Grabiella said that after threatening to cut him Esebello hit him in the face and made a motion as if to draw a weapon from his coat pocket. He then used his razor in self-defense. He admitted that he could have got out of Esebello's way had he tried. Argument in the case will commence to-morrow. : e Collided With a Hack.

Young Lovers of Monterey Outwit an Enraged Parent. Escaped to Sea in a Rowboat With the Youth’s Father in Hot Pursuit. Marriage Bans Promounced Before Their Craft Is Overtaken by the Other. MONTEREY, CAwL., Jan. 22.—That the romantic days of this old Spani:h capital are by no means over is evidenced by an elopement just reported. Adel Sanchez Jr.,a young resident of Monterey, recently became infatuated with i6-year-old Carrie Hinkle and wanted to marry her. His father opposed the match because of the youth of the couple, his son being just 18, and sent young Sanchez to 8an Fran- cisco to be cured of his folly. Absence sremed to make no change in his affec- tions and on Wednesday last he returned to Monterey without his father's knowl- edge, going to the home of Miss Hinkle, whose family was desirous that the mar- risge shoald take place. Arrangements were immediately made for the wedding and a boat ior the couple, the minister and the witnesses was pro- cured ‘that the ceremony might be per- fornied atv sea toevade the law in regard to parental consent. On Thursday morn- ing the girl was taken to a convenient place on the beach between old and new Monterey, and the boat on which were the two brothers of the bride waited at the Monterey wharf for the groom and Rev. Mr. Snodgrass, who were to appear at the last moment. In some way San- chez's father got wind of the affair and, summoning a constable, he rushed down to the wharf just in time to see the boat containing his sor move off. He jumped into another boat to overtake them, but in this aiso was too late, for the occupants of the first boat, seeing themselves iollowed, rowed rapidly to where the girl waited and almost before she was fairly settled in the boat it bad pushed off.

I wasall the time under the care of two of the best physi- cians of the place, but I did not improve. I took different rheumatic cures and used an electric battery a balf hour each day for ten days, without any relief. “‘Finally I concluded to try Paine’s cel- ery compound, and to my surprise after using oze-half of a boftle I was able to get out and vote on election day, and be- fore T used the whole bottle I went to work, and have worked every day since. I have gained 20 pounds in weight and am feeling first rate. *My wife has also been taking 1t for ner- vousness, and thinks that there is pothing like it. We both recommend it to all of our acquaintances, and you are at liberty to use this letter as you see fit, for it truly worked wonders in my case.” And Paine’s celery compound is worke ing justsuch wonders in every state, coun« ty. city and village of the country to-day. The reader must know some one who has tried it, Ask that person if he or she was notat once benefited! Don’t let a dealer palm off anything else on you, however; for there is as much difs ference between Paine’s celery compound and all the ordinary sarsaparillas, tonies, nervines and compounds as there is bes tween an eiectric motor and a boy's wind. mill, There is power to cure in Paine’s celery compound. _HISCELI:ANEOUS.
