THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, 189 MAY 11, GIRLS MAKE WAR ON A CORPORATION Demolition of Houses and Fences in Larkspur. Two Sisters Employ Men to Clear a Highway of Obstructions. Claim the American Landand Trust Company Is Blocking the Thoroughfare. SAN RAFAEL, Can, May 10.—Thers ha ve been exciting scenes at Larkspur to- day. Houses and fences have been torn down by force and the work of de molition would have been comnplete had not dneriff Henry Harrison stepped in at an oppor- tune moment and stopped the destruc tion. Two sisters, Belle C. Brown and Mary A. Brown, the former be the public school at San Rafael, own property in Larkspur which has become known as Brown’s camp grounds. During the summer months they lease it to vari- ous camping parties. To reach the grounds one must travel a distance of nalf a mile throvgh Larkspur and over of the American Land and The president of the W, Wright, caused a fence o be erected across the road leading to Brown’s camp grounds. The girls chopped the fence down last week. Wrigh house built a few days ago, girls threatened to have it iming that it to their place and wasan and the Brow torn down, cl road lead obstruction. This morning Marsha John E. Creed of Sausalito, with a party of five, drove to the Brown camp &nd without delay be- gan the work of removing the heuse and demolishing the fence. Of the laiter 200 yards of barved wire was cut posts dug up and was raised and abou into small bits and splintered. The house i moved a distance of t eet off the d puted road and onto properiy belonging to Wright. Creed and his men worked quick one man interfered. of Wright by the name of Ti Murphy. Descending on Creed and five Sausalito workmen with a huge ¢ he ordered the Marsnal to stop, but drew a pistol and told Murphy that he haa better go about his business. When ploye Murphy caught sght of the weapon he | arrived at the same conclusion, and when last heard from he had visited s house some distance away wine to steady his nerves. When Creed and his men task the Brown sisters had a fine repast ready for tnem and wine flowed iree Then Sheriff Henry Harrison descended | upon the scene and served inju ction pa- pers, which had been swornout in the Su- perior Court. More trounle is expected. President Wright of the land company claims be is in the right and that be is privileged to build a house or a fence where he did. In the Superior Court tbis morning Belle C. Brown ana _Mary A. Brown filed a complaint for an injunction against the American Land and ‘irust Comtany and William Wright, restraining the defend- ant corporation from obstructing the road leading to the Brown Camp Tract. The plaintiffs allege that they have enjoysd a right of way from Larkspu and that they are now informed that the company infend to erect a house and fences 50 as 10 prevent the use of the road, to the injury of the Browns. Judge Angelotti issned the injunction, which was served late this afternoon on President Wright of the land company. President Wright said this evening: *-Of course we will fight this matter. These women are simply attempting to steal our property. v last week they assaulted me. They flew at me and tore my clothes and broke my watch.” Mr. Wright hers produced his time- piece, which bad been battered to such a degree that the lid refused to stay closed. “They also called me various names, he continued, “and I had a hard time with them. They have no right to come on our property or have men come on our property to remove any house or tear down any fence. We don’t intend that they shall steal the property, and we will fight the case to the end and claim dam- ages for property that has been de- stroyed.” The Brown girls tell a different story. | They are well known in the county and are popular in Larkspur, where they have lived for some time. They say that the roads are sixty feet in wiath, but that G. W. Wrighi and the land company have only a 30-foot road near their camp. The trouble has but commenced, and 1t | bas become a battle royal between iwo girls against o big corporation. Public sympathy is against the latter, and the outcome of the affair promises to be sen- ¢ational. BOON ¥OR ARIZONA MUKDERERS. Fifteen Wno Escape the Gallows Be- cause of @ Faulty Law. PHENIX Ariz., May 10.—After a more tareful canvas of the situation by the territorial authorities it appears now that there are fifteen murderers in various parts of Arizona who will in .all proba- bility escape the death penalty because the last Legislature, in revoking the old morder law and enacting & new one, lailed to provide for the pending cases, Of these fifteen the one that probably de- lerves hanging most is Augustine Chacon, who bas just been convicted of {ne mur- | NEW TO-DAY. bur Stronghold Is PURE FOOD.

FAMOUS ARIZONA SUIT. | New Trial of the Government's Action Against the Copper Queen Company. PH@ENIX, Ar May 10. — United . rney Eilinwood has received tructions from the Department of tice to retry the case of the United tes azainst the Copper Queen Company 5,000, which is claimed by the | Federal Government for timber cut from | Government 1ands. This case is the most important in the | history of Arizona jurispradence. It has {dragged along in the Iederal courts of | the Territory for years. Last fall it was on trial in Tucson before a jury for two weeks acd resulted in adisagreement. About seventy-five witnesses were examined and several days were consumed in agument. e timber for the value of which the { Government sues was cut in Chiracabua mountains, about forty miles from Bis- bee, where' it was utilized by the mining | company. The factof the timber having | been cut is not the point in dispute, the question hinging almost entirely upon | whether the land from which the timber was taken was mineral !and or otherwise. The lezal\questions involved are of such { importance that the Atiorney-General of | the United States has applied to the In- terior Department for the assistance of the | director of the Geological Survey, to | determine the nature of the lands in | question. The suryey party in charge of a skillea expert, wiil be forthwith dis- patched from Washington to the Chira- cahuas, to settle tne question scientifi- | cally. It the surveyoris a tenderfoot, his thoughts and anticipations, and possibly | his realizations are not to be envied dur- | ing the coming few weeks, for the scene of his investigations is in the heart of the marauding Apache country. | The United States Atiorney’s office is already at work on the preliminary papers | 10 be filed in the case, apd the trial is ex- pected to be had earlyin the November ierm. It is scarcely probable that United States Attorney Llimwood will still be representing the Government at that time, though there is some expectancy s case will resalt in his retention in office until the caseis concluded. s R NO HOPE FOR THE SAMARIA. the Missing Vessel's Seamen Sighted Off Cape Flattery. VICTORIA, B. C., May 10.— Captain Nikells of the ship British Yeoman is witness to the fact that some 1f not all of the crew of the lost Samaria bave been owned. On Friday night last, while off ipe Flattery, he passed through a quan- tity of the Samaria’s wreckage and soon fterward saw the naked body of a man. The man was evidently one of the Sama- ria’s crew and probably had been drowned while making a futile effort to save his life by swimmin AL CAMPING AT P+CIFIC GROVE, | Cadets of St. Matthew's Military School on an Outing.

Mrs. L. B. Rosenberg of 36 Maple court met with a very serious accident last evening and she is considered to be in a critical condition. About 5 o’clock a gentleman friend, who had hired a horse from a .downtown livery stable, rode up to the house and made a call. The animal wasa spirited one, and as Mrs. Rosenberg s a fine horse- woman she expressed a desize to take a wurn on the horse. ‘The gentleman protested, as he thought it had not been accustomed to la ut he yielded and she sprang into the saddte. Maple court runs off Fourteenth street, between Guerrero and Dolores, and as the horse turned into Fourteenth street it took the bit between its teeth and started oft ata furious gallop. Mrs. Rosenberg lost complete control over the animal and clung to the saddle for dear life. As the horse turned sharply into Valencia street it slipped and fell and rolled over the un- fortunate lady. Beveral bystanders sprang to her as- sistance and dragged her from under the horse. _A citizen, who was passing in his buggy, pulled up and she was lifted into it and driven to her home. Tie family physician was summoned, and he ex- pressed doubts of her recovery as sheis internally injured. —a Father Gleason to Lecture.

LAFAYETTE, Or, May 10.—A fatal stavbing affray occurred about two miles north of here, on the Will Green farm, at 2 o'clock yesterday morning. A neigh- vorhcod dance was in progress and the Garner brothers of Lafayette were there. It seems that a quadrilie was called, while some of the dancers wanted a waltz. Then the row began. The men went outside the house on a porch and six or seven of them began to fight. Pistols were brought out.and knives were used. After a few blows Will Hill said he was stabbed in the abdomen, and went over to where Wirt Garner was standing, and with several others accused Garner of having been his jassailant. The doctors say there iz no hone of Hill's recovery. FOOD COFFEE. LESS HARD LIQUORS. And More of a Food-Drink in Demand. At the bars of the betier class nowadays there is a call for some hot drink that is non-alcoholic and it is coming to be quite the thing to serve “Postum,”’ the grain coffee, made =t Battle Creek, Micn. It is known to be highly nutritions and have none of the ill effects of coffee, or any other unnatural stimulant. . Asmen grow older and wiser the tendency is toward healthful food and drink, leaving the hard 1iquors 1o the youngsters who think they can stand anything. Postum *‘makes red blcod,” and the time comes_ to every one when building of blood and tiss along the lines of better health is neces- sary. There is but one royal road, i.e., through good food and healthiul arink. A reliable grocer will never offer a cheap or weak imitation of a genuine original article because be happens to make a lit- tle extra profit. But it is well to observe when genuine Postum Cereal coffee s ordered that you get Postum and not a n;lg'u. imitation offered as “just as good, . CARTER'S TRIAL NEARING AN END Evidence Presented to the Mare Island Court. The Lieutenant’s Threatening Letters to Doughty of Healdsburg. Promised to Make It Lively for the Sonoma Man’s Son in the Navy. VALLEJO, Cavn, May 10.—The Carter court-martial at the navy-yard is still dragging its weary length along, but with prospecis of being brought to an early termination. As near as can be learned, the facts so far adduced are as follows: J. A. Doughty of Healdsburz had a son wbo shipped as landsman on the receiy- ing-ship Independence 1n 1894 or 1895. Lieutenant Fidelio Carter was, and is still, one of the officers of the Inde- pendence. Oune of his daties is to drill the men in the manual of arms. Young Doughty, it appears, was not lively enough in his movements to suit the licutenant, and it is claimed that the boy wrote fo his father that the lieutenant had struck him with his sword and other- wise ill treated him, The father there- upon wrote the lieutenant & sharp letter, which was responded to with a battery of hot shot, the lieutenant declazing that the boy was idiotic and of no account. Shortly afterward the boy deserted and went home. He was brought back to the ship and turned over to the proper au- thorities. Evidently warm words passed between Doughty senior and Licutenant Carter, for on the Healdsburg man’s re- tarn home in October, 1895, the letter written to him by the lieutenant was for warded to Secretary of the Navy Herbert, who referred it to Captain Frank Wildis, then in command of the receiving-ship In- dependence, for investigation. Captain Wildes made a report to the Navy Department exonerating the licu- tenant from the charge of having struck young Doughty or in any other manner maltreated him. The report was evi- dently saisfactory to the Secretary, as nothing further was heard of the matter until last month. Thoughts of the charges made to the Navy Department evidently rankied in the " brain of Lieutenant Carter. In March last he indited another letter to Mr. Doughty, asking him to withdraw the cbarges from the Navy Department, as they stood in the way of his being held 1n favor by the Navy Department or his brether officers. Now, here is where the lieutenant made the error by adding the implied threat that if the letter was not witharawn be would make it lively for the boy, who was still under himj; that be would rake up the desertion case and bave him tried and punished. This_letter was by Mr. Doughty for- warded to the Sécretary of the Navy, who immeaiately ordered "Lieutenans Carter tried by court-martial. The charges and specifications were two 1n number; one for scandaious conduct prejudicial to-the interests of good morals in the navy, and the other for conduct unbecoming a gen- tleman and an officer of the navy. The court now engaged in trying the cass includes these officers: Captain Louis Kempff, president; Commander Hanford of the Alert, Major Pope from the barracks, Lieutenant - Commanders Speyers and Perkins, and Lieutenants Phelps, Milton, Lefevre and Hughes. Lieutenant Dion Williams from the bar- racks is_acting as Judge Advocate, and Judge Highton of San Francisco and Lieutenant C. Marat Perkins from the barracks are acting as counseldor the ac- cused. Mr. Doughty, it is understood, simply sant the Carter letter to the Secretary and made no direct complaint against the accused. NO MORE = + DREAD —OF— THE DENTAL CHAIR TEETH Extracted Without Pain.
