As a cold fact, Rainey never cut any figure in the case. The mention of his name was an after- thought or ruse of the Examiner to di- vert suspicion from its scheme to get possession of the works. The outcome is one of the Examiner’s beautiful victories, in which it lost ev- erything In sight, and was not able to control a single vote in the State Cen- tral committee. The programme mapped out by Governor Budd and other Democratic leaders in the cau- cus was not deviated from in the com- mittee. The people of Sacramento seem to be surprised that steps were not taken by the al ¥ Democ party to designate that city as the place for holding the next State nvention of the party. This is the re m the subject was deferred: It has come directly to the knowledge of leading Democrats that W. H. Mills of the Southern Pacific is making, through C. F. Montgomery and other agents, an active canva to secure the nomi- motion of H. M. Rue for Governo Men of political sens d keen intell gence saw at a glance that the selec- tion of Sacramento as the place for holding the convention would be a gun fired by the committee in the interest of Mills and La Rue, and so it was wise- determined to defer the question of lection until another time. 'The ad- antages of Sacramento as a conven- tion city were appre ted by the com- mittee, but the candiaacy La Rue, bac i by William H. Mi handi- capped the town. Frank Gould of Stockton next intro- | d a resolution authorizing the airman to appoint a committee of five to lopk after the interests of the party in the event of th atton pri- mary law being upheld by the Supreme Court. There was no objection raised and the resolution was unanimously adopted. Gould next Introduced another reso- lution, empowering th chairman to appoint a committee of seven to attend to the organization of the party throughout the State. He said that it was the opinion of many leading Dem- ocrats that such a committee should be appointed, so that the work of orgs ization would be well in hand befo the meeting of the State Convention. W. L Brobeck oppos appoint- ment of the committee, id that he did not believe in attempting to per. petuate a committee. “When the n. State convent L n meets,” said he, “a new State central committee will be elected to succeed this committee. That committee can select from its body a sub-committee to look after the mat- ters contemplated by the resolution. I do not believe that the pre com- mit should adopt any such meas- Kinney of Los Angeles supported the resolution in a lengthy speech. He be- lieved that the committee €hould be ap- pointed to look after the party inter- before the State convention. “Be fore the convention meet said he, “we can have the State thoroughly organ- ized and the party in a position to at once continue the work of the conven- tion.” Byron Ball of Yolo said that he fa- | vored the resolution if the members of th committee were appointed from the te central committee. Gould replied that he had no objec- | tion to an amendment of that nature, | and the resolution, as amended, was | adopted. Congressman Caminetti then moved that the State central commit- tee hereafter meet monthly. After a short debate it was decided to hold the monthly meetings, but not before the Supreme Court passes on the question the validity of the new pri- mary law. he committee then adjourned meet at the call of the chair. The members not included in the res- olution of reinstatement and who have been cited to “show cause” are T. W. Doyle, Thomas E. Scully, Charles Wit- beck, E. P. Mogan, J. J. Byrne and John J. Lynch. | Chairman Alford stated after the meeting that it would probably be two weeks before he would announce th committee to look after the organiza. tidn of the party. “It is a very impor- tant committee,” said he, “and I want | to | to pick out the best men on the State committee and those T know will at- | tend to the duty intrusted to them.” | HIT WITH A SWORD. James Lucy, a Saloonkeeper, | Charged With Assault With a Deadly Weapon. Charles E. Durning, 420% Harriet street, swore to a complaint in Judge Conlan's court yesterday for the arrest of James | Lucy, a saloonkeeper at §19 Bryant street, on a charge of assault with a deadly weapon. He stated that he was in a galoon on Harriet and Brannan streets Friday night playing solitawe, when Lucy came in and using an offensive expression made a blow at him with a Japanese sword. He dodged, but received a s | cut on the head. o Lucy was arrested. and his version of | the affair is that a friend presented him with a Japanese sword Friday and he went to the saloon to show it to+ some friends. Durning and he had not been friends, as Durning owed him money, and when He asked him for it he used & vile expression. Lucy struck him with his | fist. He denied using the sword.

CAPTAIN EDES LATEST DEAL Pays $180,000 for More of Market-Street Property. It Is Situated Between Barron Estate Parcels, Near Powell. This City, He Thinks, Has a Future. A. M. Speck & Co. Were the Brokers. Captain Willlam Ede is at it again. The captain is a capitalist too well known to need any pedigree airing. But “at it again,” to quote the ex- pression of a local realty broker, means investing in more real estate. In fact that seems to have developed into a hobby with the capitalist. to the long list of purchases already made by him being added a week or two ago that of the Auzerais property on the corner of Powell and Ellis| streets. Now comes another investment. Yesterday, through his brokers, A. M. | Speck & Co." Ede consummated a deal by which he pays $150,000 for property on Market street, near Powell. It was | a pure cash transaction and the seller | was Mrs. Jane Rellly. The property is situated at Market street, 161:43 feet west of | Powell, on the northwest line, and extends through to Eddy street. The Market street frontage is 28:4 feet and the frontage on Eddy street is 23 feet. The property lies between the gore corner of the Barron estate and a trapezoidal piece of the same estate. In addition to this and the Auzerais property mentioned in.the foregoing, Captain Ede possesses valuable prop- erty on Market street near the Pheldn building and other smaller landed interests throughout the city.. He is what may be termed a ‘“‘speedy” buyer, Speck & Co. taking only three days’ time to consummate the Auzer- ais deal, the price in that instance being $152,000, while the latter pur- chase was made in a few days. The capitalist used to invest his but finally reached the conclusion that this city has a future and that the safest and best paying investments he could make would be in real estate, hence his late big purchase. 1016 | 1 finally goods had been bought and found that Miss Behr was the yvoung lady who , dogskin bonnets and other things equally I called her to account and >st it In good paying min I realize that I might have been disappointed in my mining venture; | yesterday is shrouded in mystery, and “I had not the - 4 ended sur- perty man to me he knew where the on the subject said: and sent for my pr He told went to the place been made. vas told that ind saw no properties in had saved about $40,04 a written reason, commonly called a if she attempted to ike any trip away without passing through a a reasonable view of the matter, so | | lock, the whole door, which is of heavy | glass, fell inside on top of the case | | which is placed in the center of the { In the confusion | excitement subsided an examination of The Front Door Torn From the Casing and the Shelves Destroyed.

One of the most daring attempts at robbery, according to the police the- ory, ever brought to their attention took place early yesterday morning. | Four men, whose descriptions have been | glven to the police, entered the cigar | store of J.

Daniel Doherty Preferred Lib- erty to Being Sent to the Agnews Asylum. How He Managed to Get Out of His Cell in the Receiving Hospital Is a Puzzle. The escape of an insane patient from 2 padded cell in the Receiving Hospital is causing the attaches of the hospital and the Sheriff's deputies no end of worry and surprise. Dantel’ Doherty, a young man living at 1917 McAllister street, is a victim of the morphine habit to such an extent as to make him irresponsible for his actions. He was arrested Friday night on the complaint of his brother on a charge of insanity, and locked up in a padded cell in the hospital. Yesterday morning he was taken be- fore the Insanity Commissioners and committed to the Agnews asylum. Two deputy Sheriffs took him back to the padded cell, and it was their intention to take him and another patlent to the asylum in the afternoon. When the deputies went to the cell about 2 o'clock, to their surprise they found it empty. A search was made, but no trace of Doherty could be found. No one had seen him leave the hospital, and it dawned upon them that he had made his escape, preferring freedom' to being confined in an asylum. How he succeeded in getting out of the cell was a mystery. The deputies were sure that they locked the padlock on the door, but when they examined it it was unlocked. No one had visited the cell after the deputies had, as they thought, locked it. There were only two conclusions to arrive at—either that the deputies were mistaken in thinking they had turned the key in the padlock or that Doherty had some | door and as the people were constant- | questioned by the detectives on | committed the burglary are well known friend who secretly got into the hos- pital and opened the padlock with a false key. It is only a week ago since Martin Cavin, another insane patient, made his escape from the hospital, but after sleeping all night in a freightcar he thought the padded cell preferable, and next morning swrendered himself. of Police, and detectives were detailed on the case, but so far have been una- ble to get any clew to the burglars, | although it is thought the men are old ‘timers.” The burglary was ex- | ceedingly daring as a noise must have | been made while tearing down the Iy passing on their way to business it is thought remarkable that the men were not discovered before the proprie- tor arrived. All suspicious characters are closely the case, and it is supposed the men who | and will soon be under arrest. Dur- ing the day two men who were ap- parently watching the store were taken aside and questioned, but they were again released. All efforts will be made to capture the men who at- tempted robbery and possibly murder. KiNG OF SEERS. A Man of Extraordinary Powers—Your Life an Open Book to Him. With an ordinary marble-top table, a few dlagrams of the planets, a pad of or- dinary scratch paper, Dr. Reed will tell you anything you may ask. Your past life, your future, business troubles, suc- cess in love, in fact everything is an open book to him. A Call reporter who has seen much of so-called clairvoyancy, mind-reading and palmistry in the course of newspaper work, was given a test yesterday. From a doubter, a skeptic, who did not believe in the occult mysticism, he came from the presence of Dr. Reed a believer that there is at least one man in the world who has reached that high plane of in- tellectuality, and that he is in some way in_touch with the powers that govern us. If all was told of the powers of Dr. Reed, the majority of people would not believe ft—call it a fake—an advertise- ment, and all that sort of thing. and to those one can but say: See Dr. Reed for yourselves. Parlors have been fitted at 23 Sutter, Parlor 1, where ladies and gentleman can g0 without fear. A lady attendant at- tends to the wants of patrons. Skeptics and unbelievers are the people Dr. Reed would have glve a test of -his nccult power. His strength of perception is simply marvelous. .

Threats to Kill. Mrs. Florence Schafer was arrested yesterday afternoon on a warrant charg- ing her with threats to kill. The com- plaining witness is Mrs. Margaret Niles, the proprietress of a_lodging house at 11 Eddy ‘street. Mrs. Schafer, when taken to the City Prison, was in a hysterical condition. She said that she missed a air of dlamond earrings from her room iday night and when shé spoke to the landlady about it yesterday morning they had some words and the landlady threw her effects into the hallway. She denied usipg any threats. —_—— Y. M. C. A.
