Henry Schmitt, the Acting Landlord of the House, Files an Injunction. Schmitt and Smith are “at it.” This is the most concise and at the same time the most true characterization deduction that can possibly be made in summing up the grievances which constitute the existing feud between Henry Schmitt, the proprietor of the Stewart House, on Ellis street, and his neighbor, Dr. Smith, who occupies the adjoining house. Dr. nith claims that Schmitt’s ten- ants have been in the custom of thro ing paper, rubbish and other objection- | able matter out of the windows of their apartments into his yard, and inci- dentally all over his property. .In con- sideration of this fact Smith claims the to erect a fence between his and Schmitt’s, which, when buiit, will extend to the height of 150 feet or more in the air, shutting out the windows, roof, and, in fact, every trace and vestige of even the remotest of Schmitt’s objectionable hos- right property sight ants of sun, air, and, in fact, all the requisites of perfect health.

Owners of Patria and Mialmo Divide First and Second Prizes. Finals of the Sapling Stake Will Be Run on Sunday Next The big meeting of the Interstate Coursing Club was brought to a close vesterday. It was a miserable day from a climatic point of view, yet 2000 people went out to Ingleside and they saw some great sport, as sport i8 in- terpreted by leashmen. The saplings were the first per- formers called.-upon. They were run- ning for the Belle Brandon cup. The first run was between the Merced dog, Daisy Dean, and the local youngster, Minerva. Daisy put it all over Mi- nerva. Ratbone succeeded in making a “no go"” with Sunbeam, but Sunbeam re- | sponded handsomely, and the favorite went to his kennels. Mayflower had little trouble in turn- ing down Mystic, and Sunburst did the ° ° ®0000°° : SN the cup, which the last-named gentle- man politely accepted. The consensus of opinion regarding Dean's action was that such a proceeding, where an im- portant cup was ‘at stake, was any- thing but sportsmanlike, and thatDean had only an eye to the money that was to be made from a sport which should be above a monetary consideration. In the second round of the puppy stake: W. Ryan’'s Sprig o' the Hill beat R. Wyman's Rush o’ the Hill, 3—1. J. Dean’s Gladiator beat He Spring’'s Master . Connell Bros." Log Boy beat Jack, Royal Oak in a bye, 38— %ird round—Log hoy beat Sprig o' the lell and Gladiator beat Master Jack in a ye. Dean also being the fortunate owner of Gladiator, divided this stake with Connell Brothers, the owners of Log Boy, and conceded also to him the Belle Brandon cup. Such conduct should not be tolerated on any respect- able coursing sward. Dean'’s reasons for dividing the prizes and ignoring, 80 to speak, the cups at stake were his desire to run his dogs | at the new park. But he claimed that his champions were not in condition to run at Ingleside on Sunday. Still they | were, in Mr. Dean’s opinion, good enough to run at the new park on Sun- | day. Doubtless he has a very poor opinion of the dogs his charges will meet on Saturday and Sunday. The second round of the Saplingstake stake resulted as follows: Thomas Hall's Daisy Dean beat Lar- key & Rocks' Minerva, 6—0. Dillon & Reilly’s Sunbeam beat J. O’Shea’s Rat- bone, 7—4. J. Egan’s Mayflower beat F. 0] 30 y Foley's Mystic, . Dillon & Reilly Sunburst beat J. Eagan's Billy Glad- stone, 6—4. Third_round, saplings—Sunbeam beat Daisy Dean, Mayflower beat Sunburst. The finals will be run at the Ingle- side Park on Sunday. —_——ee—— HELD FOR MURDER. Charles E. Weathers, for Killing Bartender Phillips, Sent Up for Trial. The preliminary examination of Charles E. Weathers, charged with the murder of Nathan Phillips, a bartender in the Empire Theater, 21 Ellis street, on Janu- ary 27, was concluded before Judge Campbell yesterday afternoon and he was held to answer before the Superior Court without bail. The defendant did not put in any defense. A number of witnesses testified for the prosecution. Pete Hall's evidence was to the effect that Weathers fired a shot at him from the sidewalk and he dodged the bullet by getting close to the wall. Just as he was firing the second shot at sheet of paper or something of that in- cidentally blown out of the windows, and in its descent singled out Smith’s vard as a desirable resting place. The clerk of the Stewart Ho al- leges that when Smith saw this piece of paper slowly and lightly making its way from the window of the hotel, by some magical agency it was trans- formed before his Iimagination into anything ahd everything ranging from the piece of paper that was down to that of a bootjack and a folding-bed. Such illusions had to be stopped, so he claims, and to shut them out from his view forever, Smith became con- vinced that only a fence of the above described dimensions would be suf- ficient to accomplish the purpose, which means the complete ruination of all the | rooms on the east side of the house,and will lead to the inevitable result of compelling the landlord to reduce the price of rent for these rooms. Schmitt filed an injunction in the County Clerk’s office yesterday to pre- vent Smith from carrying out his in- tentions of ruining his property by the | erection of the fence, and it is based upon the law that no fence within the city limits can be erected to a height exceeding ten feet. The Fire Marshal was asked to inter- fere in the matter, and in reply to the request visited the premises, but pz ed no opinion as to whether the barrier should be prohibited or allowed. Chief Lees has also been mnotified, and will probably visit the scene of the battle s afternoon. th"; the meanwhile ,Schmitt and Smith will cease to love each other, and will continue to act in direct violation of the old commandment which insists that they shall harbor no hatred nor resentment in their breasts toward one another. — - LOCAL ODD FELLOWS.

Gladstone without tween the old dogs for the John Grace challenge cup. Sixteen performers re- mained in for the second round and they .were of high-class stock through- | out. The first course was between Patria and Rusty Gold. The Eldorado crack was the favorite, but Patria was too | speedy for him. Rusty Gold is not a park dog. Old Glory had to make two essays at it, but sent White Lily to the kennels in the end with no doubt obtaining from the outset. Tod Sloan and Tessie Fair were a close call, as sized up by the talent, but Tessie is no match for her brother | as they ran yesterday. The dog was | speedy and clever at every point. f Susie romped away from the Eastern | candidate, Mountain Beauty, and Swinnerton repeated the trick with the other Eastern hound, Moore’s Pre- scription. The two Dean flyers, Conne- mara and Mialmo, had not the slight- est difficulty in disposing of the East- ern dog Chit Chat and St. Lawrence in | their respective order, albeit St. Law- | rence sold a favorite over Mialmo at 2tol In the next round Patria beat Old Glory with little effort. Patria was a bit heavy Tuesday, but her first course ran off the extra weight. Crow Dog then lifted a flag over Tod Sloan, but it took a second trial for him to show superiority. Susie also needed a second start to beat Connemara,butshedid the work, even though Connemara sold fa- ¥orite at 5 to 2. Mialmo beat Swinner- ton as easily as a carpet may be beaten. In the next round Patria put out Crow Dog in a short course. Crow Dog was too slow for Thompson's Kansas importation. Susie and Mialmo ran their first trial undecided. Both were in the pink of condition. Mialmo led up and turned, but Susie dashed in and killed. In their second trial Mialmo won after a good run that had in the lead an excellent hare. The final runs of all three stakes were then put over till Sunday owing to approaching darkness. As a whole the sport throughout the day was good, but in not a few of the courses the weakness of the hares | shortened the runs and possibly altered what might otherwise have been the results. The running in detail was as follows: Second round of all-aged stake: Re- sults—W. Thompson's Patria beat Simmons & Donahue’s Rusty Gold, score 5—3. Deckelman & Panario’'s Old Glory beat W. Halpin's White Liiy, 40. R. L. T.oe's Crow Dog_ beat Thomas Hall's Widow Brophy, 5—4. Lynch & Maher’s Tod Sloan beat W. O. Elmer’s Tessie Fair, 8—4%. T. Butler's Susie beat Simmons & Donahue’s Mountain Beauty, 6—4%. J. Dean’s Connemara beat Dr. Van Hum- meil’s Chit Chat, 6—2%. J. Dean's Mialmo beat W. O. Elmer's St. Lawrence, 7—i. In the third round Patria ' beat . Old Glory, Crow Dog beat Tod Sloan, Susie beat’ Connemara, Mialmo beat Swinner- Fourth round—Patria beat Mialmo beat Susie. The finals will not be run off on Sun- day because J. Dean, the owner of Mi- almo, agreed with W. E. Thompson, the owneér of Patria, to divide first and second money, and as Dean is partic- ularly anxious to run Mialmo at the new coursing p;rk on Saturday and Sunday, he decided to give Thompson Crow Dog, The chief stake of the day was be- | SUICIDE IS | morning before Judge Cook and jury. The him Phillips came out of the theater and received the bullet in his brain. One.of the witnesses testified that Weathers complained of belng struck by somebody in the theater and offered him $10 to teil him who the person was Weathers {s a_bartender and came from Visalia in search of a job. At the time of his arrest he claimed that he had been robbed In the place and thrown out. It is_sald that this is not the first shooting affray in which he has cut the principal figure. THE DEFENSE The Plans in the Figel Case Are Now Plainly Outlined. Owing to the Sudden Iliness of Judge Cook the Case Was Early Adjourned. The Figel case reopened yesterday defense is still putting in its case. Dur- ing the afternoon session Judge Cook was taken suddenly ill and the case was early put over until to-day at 10 o’clock. Carel Johnson, ticket agent of the Tiburon Fer- Ty Company, was first called and stated that on the night of June 1 Theodore Fi- gel had purchased a monthly commuta- tion ticket for San Rafael at about 6:30 o'clock, and that only two tickets were sold after Figel had received his. Stew- ard Mogan of the Recelving Hospital was asked if he could identify the papers he took from the body of Isaac Hoffman and subsequently dellvered to Detective Crockett, but he stated that he could not. Detective Crockett was also unable to identify any of the papers, and Chief Lees was called. He identified the documents as those given to him by Detective Crock- ett. The letters in question proved to be those written by Mrs. Hoffman to her uncle, scoring her husband on account of the settlement he had made with her mother, Mrs. Alexander. The letters were then offered in evi- dence by the defense, but a strenuous ob- jection was made by the prosecution. Gen- eral Barnes gave a history of the corre- spondence and sought to show the court that the matter !no‘:ildd x: :o theh Jury. contended that as the let- {:rds‘fialg ‘:;r&hgeen written by the deceased they should not be admitted as evidence. The matter was taken under advisement by the court and the letters marked for identification. ‘At the opening of the afternoon session Sol Lewek of Marysville was called. His testimony was concernlnf the alleged trouble existing between Isaac Hoffman and his “wilfe for a considerable period rior to the death of the merchant. ewek stated that he had overheard a conversation in which Isaac Hoffman had said that his wfl& mult‘telthenlan,ve her mother or himself, as ‘was_impossible for him to live in peace with his mother- in-law in the house. There was a short argument concernin the admission of the letters which ha been taken from the body of Isaac Heff- man on the evening of June 1. They were the letters which been intercepted by Hoffman and were brought forth to show that the effect upon Hoffman's mind in- duced him to commit suicide. The letters were admitted in evidence and read to the jury by General Barnes for the defense. 3ar es Hoffman was then called to the stand, but on account of the sickness of Judge Cook he was excuSed until this morning at 10 o’clock, when he will be re- lled by the defense. e‘.‘umybunnc was called for the pur-] pose of admonishing the jury, and the case went over until to-day. RAILROAD COMPANY LOSES. The Value of Consigned Goods Should Be Appraised at the Place of Destination. The Supreme Court in banc affirmed the judgment of Department No. 1 as ren- dered in February, 1897; in the case of Gulick Brothers of Riverside agalust the Southern Pacific Railroad Company for the loss of a shipment of orange trees consigned to them from Florida in 1891 At that time the southern road was blocked by w snow storm which neces- sitated the forwarding of the trees over the northern road. En route over this road they were damaged and Gulick Brothers brought actlon against the com- pany for their loss. On the trial before Judge Campbell the railroad sought to in- troduce proof of the value of the trees in Riverside Instead of at the place of ship- ment, Florida. This the court refused and a judgment was rendered against the company for $8%3, the value of the con- slfrnmen(‘.m the rom this the company a the court (Departmentt. No. 3y sterained its view. A rehearing was granted with the result that the court in banc yester- day sustained the former decision without a dissenting opinion. ——————— A Laborer Killed. ‘William Collison, a workman in the Risdon Iron Works, was instantly killed yesterday morning by being caught in a belt of the machinery.
