Mrs. Florence Hinckley Is De- prived of the Entire Estate. THE JUDGMENT WAS IN DEFAULT. W. H. H. Hart, Her Attorney, Says He Will Upset the Edict on an 0ld Order. United States Circuit Judge W. W. Mor- row handed out a decision in the Blythe estate case which took the breath from all inferested parties in that celebrated litigation. Briefly stated he took the entire estate away from Mrs. Florence Blythe-Hinckley and gave it to the Blyihe Company, otherwise known as the English or Liverpool Blythes. This decision came up in the case of John W. and Henry T. Blythe against Florence Blythe-Hinckley and the Blythe Company. The company, in its answer swung into line and made all of the other parties defendauts, and out of this posi- tion grew a complexity of situations that made the judges, cierks and lawrers scratch their heads to keep track of. Motions, amendments, answers, bills, cross-com plaints, etc., followed each other in almost endless confusion. The last, so far as the couri apparently recollected, was that the Biythe Company filed a cross- bill in which it denied the rights of Mrs. Hinckley to the estate of the lste Thomas H. Blythe and setting up 1its own rights to the same. A proces< was issued on the second cross-bill to Mrs. Hintkley and others. The latter failed to appear and plead within the time allowed by law, and the case went by default. Under the equity rules the court took all the facts set forth in the cross-bill to be true, and ordered a decree in favor of the Biythe Company. To all around the Federal courts this was a genuine surprise, for none could con- ceive how after fighting for vears ior the estate the attorneys for Mrs. Hinckiey could let the case go by default. T'ne subsiance of Judge Morrow’s decree was as follows: Decree in favor of The Blythe Com pany,cross- complainant. The cross-suitof the Biyilie Com- pany herein, having Darte upon the cross-bill of complaint of Biytae company herein taken pro coufesso aud the amendineats thereto, and the plead- ings, files, records, orders, processes and turn’s of service thereof in the above-entitl suitand in thecross-suit therein of said The Blytne Compauy, & corporation, and it ap- pearing among other things The Blythe Com- pany by George W. Towle Jr., its solict o7, hud apoeared and answered to the bill of com- piaint, to the amended bill of compiaint and 10 the second amended and supplemental bill of compiaint of complainantson filein this suit, and that ail the pariies respondents iu this suit had duly aud regularly appeared therein and submitted to the jurisdiction of the court_in the premises; »nd thereupon that the Biythe Company, respondents, bad du y and regularly obt court permitting it to file a cross.biil of com- pluint against all the other parties to the suit, and had on the 16th day of February fited its cross-bill of complaint in equity; and that the proper process cf subpena had been issued and duly and regularly served upon the respondents, Florence Biyihe Hinkley, John W. Bythe and Henry T. Blythe, all as re- quired by law and the orders of this court; and thatl no appearance had been entered thereto by or for said named persons within the time required by law or the rules or or- ders of the court, and that no plea, auswer or demurrer to the cross-bill of complaint nad been made or filed, and that the time for en- tering an appearance in responsa 1o Lue cross- bili of complaint and to the several subpeuas Lad iong since expired. ime expired on the first Monday of April of thisyear for Florence Biythe Hinckiey, and the time for John W. Biyihe and Henry T. Blythe expired 8 month later. No exten- slon had been allowed. The decree then says that in conse- quence of all the facts set forth it is ordered and decreed that the bill of com- piaint of the Biythe Company be taken pro confesso, and that this company at the time of filing the cross-biill of com- plaint was and still is the sole owner of and entitled to the immediate possession of that land and property known as the Blythe block, bounded by Geary, Kearn. Market and Grant avenue, together wi the rents and profits accruing therefrom, and that the Biythe Company do have and be let into the immediate possession of this land and property. It was further decresd that at the time this suit was commenced none of the par- ties were in possession of the property, and since the suit was commenced Fiorence Blythe Hinckley has wrongfully obtained and been in possession of and now holds and maintains wrongful pos- session of this property, which is valued 000,000. bat since Mrs. Hinckley bas been in possession she has collected from more than a hundred tenants an aggregate rental of about $12.000 a month, out of which she has paid all claims against Thomas H. Blythe, deceased. e order further enjoins and restrains | Mrs. Hinckley, Jonn W. B ythe and Henry T. Blythe from asserting any further claim or utle to the property. _Judge Morrow, in continuing on these lines, said that Thomas H. Blythe died intestate, ieaving neither father, mother, brother nor sister, wiie nor child, that he Was not married regularly or by contract, and never adopted any child, nor did he acknowledge himself to_be the father of any child, and that Florence Blythe Hinckiey was born ubout 1873 in Eneland, and that being an alien cou:d not, under United 8iates laws, become an heir to his estate, and further that the next of kin and heirs-at-law are entitled to inherit and succeed to the estate, which shoula go to Alexander Jones, Wiliiam Jones and Jane Mandsley, Eizabeth Jaques, Robert Dover, Elizabeth Dover, Helena Blythe White, Hanna Monck, Jane Page, James Biythe Page, Eleanor Biythe Page and George Page. The latter conveyed their interest to the Blythe Company, now the sole owner of this proverty and entitied to the rents and profits thereol. Also that the claim= of John W. and Henry T. Blythe and Florence Blythe Hinckley are false and groundless, and jt was further ordered that the Blythe Company have all proper writs of process of the court in aid of the enforcement cf the decree, As soon as W. H. H. Hart, the attorney for Mrs. Hinckley, heard of the decree he hastened to the clerk’s room and declared that the whole matter was a mistake and a misunderstandinz on the part of Judge Morrow. He bunted through the big pile of documents of the case and at last triumphantly brought out an order signed ed the order of tne | by Joseph McKenna, then Circuit Judee, ln_(aldnea February 15 of this year, and said: ‘‘This order of Judge McKenna covers the whole matter and makes our position secure against this decree of Judge Mor- row beiug carried into effect. It reads as foliows: * * * Itis hereby further ordered that no further appearance in respect to said plead- ings<o filed by eaid Bly the Company need to be entered by said detendant, Florence Blythe Hinckley, until ten days after her solicitor herein s served witn written notice of the de- clsion of the court on her said motion, and then oniy if said motion should not be sus- tained in whole or in part, and for like cause said defendant is hereby granted ten days afler her solicitor herein is served with writ- ten notice of the decision of her said mo.ion in which to entera general and further ap- pearance to said pleading, and to file every further motion, plea, demurrer or answer in said suit in relation th reto, and thén only if said motion should not be sustained; and it is further ordered thata copy of this order be served upon tne solicitor for said Blythe Com- vany. The motion referred to in the order, Mr. Hart said. was made shortly after the case was filed in the Circuit Court. Itwas a motion to dismiss the entire proceed- ings—in other words, to throw the case out of the Federal court. “That motion,”” said Mr. Hart, ‘‘has never been decided, and no matter how many cross-bills, amendments, answersor cther processes are filed or served, that order holds above all. Furthermore, I have never been served with any notice of Mr. Towles’ amendment, as stated in Judge Morrow’s decree. I am sure that when Judge Morrow finds that he over- looked the order of Judge McKenna he will nullify this order and decree. While this adds to ths complication of this al- ready complicated case, still I have no fear that we bave lost anything, ana least of all, the estate of Thomas H. Blythe.” CONFIDENCE MEN AOTIVE. Five of Them Arrested on the Steamer Farallon. Chbristian Endeavorers are receiving attention from the wicked. When the steamer Farallon left Eureka last Mon- day morning there was not even sleeping room and barely standing room. Among the crowd were five men and two women who were classed by the agent of the boat as a ‘‘coniidence gang.” The vessel is li- censed to carry about fifty passengers and there were on board at least 250. The “‘confidence gang’’ had it all itsown way. There was no room in which any of them cou!d sleep between decks and in conse- quence all aud sundry had to make the best of the deck room and sleep under sails tuat had been brought out of the 1 zarette. During the day the smoking- room and social hall were crowded with the men who had spent the night under canvas. It was then that the “confidence men’’ gotin their work, and 1t is needless to say that the Christian Endeavorers got the worst of 1t. Immediately after the steamer left the agent learned that the five men and the two women had beenrunning a confidence rame in Humboldt County during the aly celebrations. He at once wired Chief of Police Lees of the fact and the latter At once sent instructions to Captain Dun- levy of the Harvor Police. Notwith- standing that the Christian Endeavorers were making reatdemands upon his men two of the squad were detailed to keep watch for the arrival of the Farralon. As soon as she was sighted Sergeant Bunner at Mei gs wharf notified the Harbor Po- lice Station. The detail was at once sent to thie Mission-street wharf and the five men were arres ed soon after the vessel dock d. The women could not be found. Whnen placed in ihe cell at the Harbor Po- lice Station the men were examined and pos:tively refused to give their names, They insisted that they were members of the Christian Endeavor party, and as there wa. no charge against them outside of that furnished by the agent of the Far- ralon, Captain Dunlevy was compelied 1o release them. This was not done, how- ever, until every member of the Harbor Police had taken a good view of the quin- tet, and if any confidence games are prac- | ticed during the next week ‘the perpetra- tors are liable to receive some attention from the detective force. Governor Budd, Commissioners Col- burn and Chadbourne had an outing on the waier tront yesterdav. They secured a whitehall boat and explored the under part of the wharves from Main street to the ferries. At Folsom street the Gover- nor remarked that if the wharf had not been fired 11 was the most remarkable case of spontaneous combustion he had ever come across. Had the party con.inued as far as the Wasbhington-street wharf they might have arrived just in time to wil- ness another case cf spontaneous combus- tion. “Man overboard!” was the cry at 12:39 o'clock, when the steamer Newark was on her way from the Oakiand mole to San Francisco. There was great excitement. Atout 200 Endeavorers were among those on board snd it was a strange experience for many of them, for, one of the re- ception committee remarked, there were persons among the excursionists who had never crossed a body of water larger than a river in their lives, and the man who jumps from a ferry-boat is therefore an unheard of individual in many parts of the Kast. The Newark’s pilot gave the signal “stop” and “full speed astern.”” In the meantime a boat was lowered and manned and in a short space of time Ah Lung, a hali-demented Chinese, was landed on the deck. He was identitied as a boot and shoe mannfacturer, whose place of busi- ness is at 719 Sacramento street. Dr. Hill, who was on the boat, attended the Chinese and the latter told him he was subject to temporary fits of insanity and did not realize that he had been overboard until he was in the fireroom of the Newark.

Contention With legard to Paying Money From the City Treasury. The case of Samuel L. Hilton ageinst County Clerk C. F. Curry was argued in Judge Hebbard’s court yesterday. Mr. Hilton seeks to gst pay for attend- ing the Superior Court, where he was summoned 2s a juror, though he was not called into the box to try the case. Mr. Curry objected to issuing a certificate of service on the ground that Mr. Hilton di« not actually serve, and, as it was a civil case, he thought the losing litigant ouznt to pay the jurors’ fee that had accrued. Assistant City Attorney W. L. Brobeck. representing the County Clerk, interposed a demurrer, and the matter will be de- cided on the issues of law that are in- volyed. Mr. Brobeck made the point that in the first place there is no law requiring the County Clerk to issue such a certifi- cate, and in the second p'ace that all de- mands azainst the City treasury ought to be first presented to the Board of Su- pervisors. % In further support of his demurrer the legal representativ ' of the City contended that the laws of 1871 and 1872 provide that in civil cases the fees of jurors shall ve paid by the litigant against whom the cos's are assessed, and that the fee bill of 1895 does not repeal that provision. Attorney O'Gara, speaking for the plain- 11ff, said that according to his anderstand- ing of the siatute of 1895 all former enaci- ments on this subject were repealed, and that the Legislature intended to provide that all jurors summoned should oe paid from the public treasury, brcause it is as fair to pay jurors irom the City funds for nelping to administer justice asitis to pay judges from the same funds. The case was ordered submitted eon briefs, |FIRES ON THE WATER FRONT The Harbor Commissioners Blame Wharfrats and Thieves. Washington-Street Pier Was in a Blaze Yesterday Afternoon. All the Fires on the Front Since the | Mail-Dock Blaze Started Under the Flooring. The Harbor Commissioners are worried over the fires that have recently made havoc on the water front. Fire aiter fire has occurred on the various wharves, but all have been put out without much trouble except in the case of the Folsom- strect blaz>. On that occasion the State was a loser to the extent of at ieast $30,000, but on other occasions the damage was slight. Yesterday the bulkhead of Washington- stree wharf was in a blage, and had it not been for the exertions of the men on the wharf another conflagration might bave resulted. The fire on Washingion-street wharf broke out in exactly the same part of the structure as did that which de- stroyed Folsom-street pier, and the flames spread under the flooring. J. Newford, collector for the Harbor Commission; J. Hayes, sergeant of the State Harbor Police; and J. Hurley, a boatman, at once started to fight 1t, and but for them the chances are the structure would have gone by the board. The fire had gathered way and the crew on the T. C. Walker was prevaring to move the ve-sol to a place of safety while Cap- tain Leale had the Caroline aiready under way. Atthat moment Newiord ordered oat some of the Harbor Commissioners’ sweepers and they at once began tearing up the wbarves, or rather the bulkheads | between the wharves. In this way the | seai of the fire was reached and a stream of water was turned on. In spite of the efforts of Newford and his assistants, how- ever, the flames spread under the wharf | and it was then that Hurl 'y came to the | rescue. He secured a bucket and rowing | under the wharf extinguished every new | outbreak. Time and again it looked as though the whole structure must go, but the exertions of the men who were not | working ‘or money or glory won the day | and the fire was put out. | Since tne incipient firesat the Mail dack, Main street, Oregon Improvement Co.’s dock, the Folsom-street conflagration and now the tire at the ‘“frnit wharf,”’ the State authorities have come to the conclu- sion that a gang of dope fi*nds infest the | under part of the wharves, Since the | time of the Scott & McCord fire last year every fire on the water front has started | from underneath. In the case of the | Folsom-street blaze last week the entire wharf was on fire underneath before the flames showed above the flooring. Yes- terday tne fire at Washington street was all among the piles and not a score of peovle kuew tnat a conflagration was raging under their feet. | Coliector Newford took the whole thing | as a matter of course and acted with great | judgment. No alarm was tarnéd in and | in baif an hour ell danger was vast. All | that now remains to prove to the casual | observer that the wharf was on fire is the half-dozen planks that were torn up in order 10 give the amateur firemen a chance to get the State hose into a boat in order to piay on the fire, Commissioners Colnon, Chadbourne and Harney are of the opinion that sneak- thieyes who make their home under the wnarves have been the cause of all the damage, and a systematic search of tne waler tront wiil be made to-day. LOWERS THE CHURCH German Ministers Condemn Demonstrative Salvation Methods. Olaim They Are Below the Church Standard of Right and Honesty. \ The regular monthly meeting of the lo- cal German ministers was held vesterday morning in the meeting-room of the or- ganization in the Y. M. C. A. building. The Rev. Mr, Fisher of the Evangelical Church on Twelfth street presided. About fifteen members were present. After the reading of the minutes Rey. | Georze Guth read an eloguent paper, in which he discussed the different relizious movements outside of the work of the church proper, and deplored the effect they had in alienating the people from the church. His criticisms were severe and his argu- ments careful. The church fair and the | demonstrative methods of the Salvation Army alike fell before his seathing denun- ciation. The Rev. M.
