Judge Wallace Will Next Friday Set the Date of Hearing. James D, Page, who was once convicted of the crime of embezziement and was sentenced 1o the State prison, appeared in Judge Wal- lace’s court yesterday morring to arrange for the new trial which was grauted him by the Supreme Court. Mr. Page’s case has aroused considerable in- tercst among lawyers and others because of the peculiar grounds on which the new trial was granted, 1t was proved at the trisl that while Page was District Attorney of San Francisco ho came into the possession of several thousand dollars belonging to an insane person and that he never aid the money back and neverin any way accounted for its disappearance; but on the contrary, when cited by the Probate Court to show what had become of the funds intrusted to him he ran away to New York, as- sumed a faise name, Was subsequently' ar- rested, and a trial being had he was convicted. Notwithstanding ell these facts the Supreme Court granted Page & new trial because there was nothing in the record to shuw that a de- mand bad ever been made for a retura of the trust funds. On this paint s motion for dismissalof the indictment was made by Paze’s attorney, hut Judge Wallace refused 1o grant this motion, saying that he could not foresee what would be proved at the next trial; possibly the pros- ecution might then establish that a demand had been mude for & return of the money; or even now a demand may be made before'the | mext trial begins. It was finally agreed that the case shall be cailed on the 21st inst, at which time it is (:'xpecled that the date of the next trial shall e set. ———————— INFLUENCE ON TAP. A Young Man Accused of Selling a Pull That Proved Bogus, The examination of Samuel J. de Graff for grand larceny was on before Judge Campbell all day yesterdsy. De Graff is the young man who is sccused of having defrauded Mary Healy of $448 upon the representation that hewas the son of s millionaire and could exert sufficient influence 10 secure for Mra. Healy's husband s position on the police force. To accomplish this it was testified that he representea_that Supervisors Clinton and Dodge, Judge Hebbard aud John T. Dare would Lave (0 be paid $100 each. The eomplaining witness, Mary Healy, was on the stand most of the day, and her wordy tilts with John T.Dare, who represented the defense, furnished considerable amusement for_the speotators. The husbaud and J. J. Coffer also testified for the people. William M. Healy, the husband, testified that De Graff hed admitied he had done wrong, but expressed a desire to act bonestly with Healy. He sald his fither was atiorney for a rich woman in Washington and would certainiy getall ber money, When that event came to pas De Graff Jr. promised to settle. The case went over uatil next week. — e ————— Presentation to an Official.

He had crossed one Tail when the train Turner ran back and /and run over. dental death was' rendered fn the case of Willlam B.Carr, who was as- phyxiated by gas a few days ago. A verdict of suicide was returned In the case of Mrs. Podests, who killed herself with strychnine, BRICE THIRKS HE WILL HOLD IT DOWN Will Build a Big Hatche'ry This Year Back of Tomales. Has Come From Washington to Buy the Hatchery on Batcle Creek. He Says He His Materially Reduced Expens:s—California’s Entire Delegation for Him. J. J. Brice, United States Fish Commis- sioner, Washington, D. C., was at the Palace yesterday. He has besn in Cali- fornia two weeks, and has been examining into the fish interests and laying plans for the year. Mr. Brice thinks he will continue to be the General Fish Commis- sioner, notwithstanding the efforts of Senator Elkins to have a man appointed jrom the Kenawha and of Maine men to have a man appointed from the Pine Tree State. “The Fish Commissioners hitherto have held the place for life,”” said he. *It has never been regarded as a political posi- tion. Party has had nothing to do with it. Bayard, the first Commissioner, held the place during his life, and so did Me- Donald, who succeeded him. I never ex- pected any opposition, and when it came recently I was surprised. But I do not think it will avail anything. The entire California delegation is for me, It won't split up on party lines. “Last year 400 per cent more work was done at 20 per cent less cost than in any year before in the interest of fish. Under the other system fram $1 to $185a thou- sand was paid for salmon eggs. We paid for them 11 cents a thousand, and all along the line reductlons have been pretty much the same—not 8o much in some in- atances, but there has been a general les- sening of expenses every way. The in- crease of output and decreass of price have been very apparent. “In view of the increase of work and the economy of it it is presumed they will hardly put me out. 1 came out this time to attend to the buying of the California State Haichery in Buattle Creek. It will be purchased at the cost price. We have since I became Com- missioner built three auxiliary hatcheries on the Columbia and one on the Sacra- mento, besides leasing hitherto the Cali- fornia State Hatchery before alluded 0. “We uave in contemplation now a very large hatchery, near San Francisco, that will be of great importance to this City and California. It will be located back of Tomales, in the vicinity of the Russian River. We want a place where eggs can be brought and hatched, and where the iry can be put in the fresh water streams about, and graduaily work down to the bay. In this way the destruction of the young fi-h will be avoided.

FELL T0 THE FLOOR. HIS LEGS SUDDENLY GAVE OUT. Thomas P. Bigg of Clevelund Stricken as He Was Preparing for a Visit to Friends. From the Leader, Clevelaud, Ohlo. Of the list of the many so-called incurable disorders none has proved to be more of an enigma to the moss learned and accomplished physicians than locomotor ataxis, or as it is more commonly known, ereeping paralysis. This dread discase has butfled their skill, and they have besn forced to admit that they cannot successfully cope with it. Ail they have been able to do is to mitigate the accom- panying pain_and suffering; beyoud this the £cience of medicine has been of little or no avail to the many unfortunates who nave con- tracted the dreadful malady, which many eople, espectally those who are thus afilicted, Pelieve is a forerunner of the grim messenger of deat 3 Thomas P. Bigg, who lives at 1073 St. Clair street, corner of Lawrence, Cleveland, Obio, has been suffering from locomotor ataxia for nearly five years, and nothibg but his wonaer- ful vitality has prevented his dissolution long beiore this. The malady is directly attributable to his exposure during army life. He enlisted in the Third Regiment, Ohio Cavalry, in Toiedo, and sorved nincteen months in the volunteer' ser- vice, and after the close of ine Rebellion, eightecn montns in the regular army. *'At first,”. he said, in narratiug his experienc., “my stomach went back on me, and for six weeks 1 was iaid up in a hospital in Texas. Ever since that time that organ has caus:d me trouble, and about seven years ago ihe doctor told me I was suffering from acute indigestion. That was bad enough, but four years ago last July paraiysis came’ on, and I have been using these crutehes aver since. The paraiysis was in my legs, and it came rather suddenly. 1 noticed at first that my knees were a _littie Stiff—a sort of rheumatic pain, you know. This quickly developed into paraiysis. “] tried sll kinds of remeaies, and I tried physicians, but I did not improve. All. this time, though, 1 was ho:ding my own—wasn’t etiing any worse. A short time ago I was in- §iiced to try Dr. Wiiliams' Pink Pills. I did not expect this last veature would prove any more veneficial than the others which pri- ceded it; but I am pleased to say I was most agreeably disappointed. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills aro simply wonderiul. I began to use them two mouths ago. My legs then were per- fectiy numb and cold—nothing could warm them. After suffering with parclysis for more than four years, I now experience a comfort- {ng feeling of warmth in my lower limbs. I toil you I feel like shouting” when I think of escaping from my bondage, and my miud is on the subject preity much of the time. I in- tend {0 coatinue the use of the pills until my legs are as_good and useful s they were in their best days, and I feel that will be soon.” What effect have Lhe pills had upon your stomach?’ Mr. Bigz was asked. “As regards that,” said he, “you can read!ly balieve tu stomach which has been seriousiy out of order for thirty-ive yearsls in bad shape. Nothing used to stay oil my stomach, and I was subject to violeut fits of hiccoughing. Then I would have to take an opite (o get to sleep. But now I find that food stays or. my stomacn, though 1 do not supposs that organ” will ever be in fir-t-class shape again. Stiil I am satis- fied to think that it has improved to such a degtee, and that 1 can eat with a feeliug of ease. For six years until a month ago, October, 1896, Mr. Blgg kept a stationery and confec: onery siore ut 347 East Madisou avenue, irectiy opposite the Malison-avenue School, He soid out his business and can now be sound atany time at 1073 St. Clair street.

His liver and kidneys were out of order. He tl’x’ought to get well by dosing himself with cheap remedies. And then came the ending.” He fell a victim to Bright’s disease! The money he ought to have in- vested in a safe, reliable remedy went for a tombstone.
