Attorney Levinsky, representing the claimant, Mary Mann, was cross-examining R. Parier, and his questions were continually objected to by F. D. Nicol, one of the attorneys for the eXecutors of the will The court refused to admit in evidence a letter offered by Mr. Levin- sky, and the attorney then endeavored to get the contents in evidence by reading the letter as a part of his question. The court ordered him to stop, which he did, but he took another tack, which was again ob- jected to by Mr. Nicol. A question was asked which the court ruled upon without a formal being interposed, and Mr. Levinsky took an exception. v passage ensued and ended by the court quietly remarking that he would fine the attorney $10 for contempt. nd I absolutely refuse to pay it,” returned the attorney, firmly. Mr. Nicol then attempted in a diplomatic manner to admonish thecourt to uphold its dignity. In the course of his return remarks the court stated that there “was no law compelling an attorney to be a gentle- | | 5 man, Judge Denson of San Francisco and Lin Church of Oakland, attor- neys for claimant, Lindy, sat quietly by taking no part in the mix up. Mr. Levinsky came to his feet in an instant, and, calling upon the official reporter to take down his remarks, addressed the court, chal- lenging any one to prove that he was not as much of a gentleman “as walks the earth, excepting no one.” Judge Jones said no more about the fine at that time, but it was a continued battle thereafter. Just before the noon recess the court ordered all attorn {ill after the spectators retired. Judge Jones then called Mr. Levinsk attention to the fact that the juds- ment for contempt was unsat “I emphatically refuse to pay,” returned the attorney. “Then the court will pay your fine for you,” returned handing the clerk $10. This was more than the attorney could stand, and, taking a $20 gold piece, he threw it on the clerk’s desk. “The court orders the Sheriff not to accept the money.” “Then I give it to charity,” called out the attorney. “The Sheriff will return the money,” ordered the court. Judge Jones then admonished the attorneys and declared Mr. Le- vinsky purged of contempt. During the noon recess the incident was the talk throughout the courthouse, as it is believed to be the first in- stance on record where a,court paid a contempt fine from the bench imposed by itself on an offending member. o QC‘CXfiDUGt‘.CECfQO{‘QOf‘OQOD'GGfififififi’flcfl:fifibfififi ENKINS' BODY FIGHT FOR - IS RECOVERED It Is Found pedo Room of the GUOCTOO0OQOROV00VOTORNVOVOVT0OBTTUY the court, LUVOTUOVVVVDOCUUVOUCLRUOOURUOOTRTOVONUHONEORVL0D Friends of the Present State System Take in the Tor- Maine.

DEL MONTE, Cal., March 24.—To- | | day the Transcontinental Freight B reau busied itself in considering and d gesting the arguments presented to it yesterday by the rival ractions of the East and West. Though the greater | part of the day was consumed in going | over the matter of carload and less | than carload rates, yet the discussion was of an informal and general charac- ter. While many opinions were ad vanced none were formally acted upon, and no decisive step was taken. 'This much was discovered: That whatever | the changes in the existing rates may | be they will necessitate a thorough | going over of the entire tariff which | 0L ok of such magnitude that it st thought the meeting here, which, at its | ter- minate with the week, will have to be | prolonged for another ten days or per-’ haps two wee! Another qu tion which came before | the meeting to-day was the inspection | & of west-bound freight. This mat- ter has the indorsement of mnot only the Southern I'acific and Santa Fe peo- ple, who have practically determined to extend the present scope of their | inspection to embrace all the import- ant points of distribution on their lines, but it meets the approval of the North- 1. As has been before ern lines as v published the only puints on the Pa- Gific Coast that have resident officials Sresence makes an inspection of freight a certainty are San Los Angeles and Portland. No such officers are stationed at Seat- tle or Tacoma, and consequently the possibilities for fraudulent classifica- tion of goods are only limited by the cupidity of the shippers. This state of affairs, which prevails all through the interior as well as the Puget Sound ports works great havoc with the mer- Phants and jobbers of those places where inspection is an established fact. Consequently the advocates of a sy te inspection are all the large houses of these three centers as well as all the reputable houses of the other cities of the coast and the East. When the question came up to-day the representatives of the O. R. and N, whose incoming Francisco, | Northern Pacific and Great Northern | | telegram on | text books for the public schools. For | lines gave their hearty support, and the only stumbling block in the way of their adoption of the same measure that is contemplated by the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe was the Canadian Pacific, whose representatives are present at the meeting by special invi- tation, as theirs, not being a Western American line, does not belong to the bureau, These gentlemen would give no expression of opinion either one way | or the other without first receiving in- structions from their superiors, and therefore the matter, as far as the four northern lines are concerned, was laid on the table pending an answer to a the matter, which was drafted and sent to the Canadian Pa- cific’s headquarters. The Canadian: P cific has already a very stringent sy: tem of inspection at the points of dis- | | effect immediately. | not speak of the matter then, fearing | to stir ful memories and raise “book ring” have been thwarted, and : . 3 g | tribution on the Canadian side of their the parents and pupils of the public | e bt none at all at their American schools of California have received the | terminals on the Pacific Coast, and it intendent of the Cotati Company, | alleged the embez- | at 1 did not have | | hopes which a failure to establish | identity might destroy. The identifi- | cation now is most positive. Besides | the uniform and private marks on his | clothing, a ring was found on one fin- | ger with this inscription, “F. W. Jen- kins, class of 1886, U. S. N. A.” This is poor Jenkins' well-loved class ring. Captain Sigsbec has it now and will treasure it tor the relatives. Jenkins, it appears now, went aft| | from the officers’ mess a moment after | the explosion, and it was believed he | might have escaped, as the others in | Golden Eagle. | the mess room did, except that he went back for papers of importance. These papers were regarded as of the highest value, and were subsequently found by, Jenkins never reached the It seems likely benefits of one of the best school book systems in the United States. In order to still preserve that system, and continue the publication books under the present law, some of ramento City have inaugurated a cam- paign which will, no doubt, meet with the approval of every parent in Cali- fornia who has experienced the bene- fits and profits derived from the State's supply of school books.

Frank N. Johnson of the Simmons Hardware Company of St. Louis, in speaking of the stand he has taken in the present matter, had this to say: ‘ “In May, 1897, it came to the knowl- edge of the Chicago and St. Louis | houses that the Pacific Coast jobbers, | more particularly the Pacific Coast | Hardware and Metal Association and | the Merchants’ and Manufacturers’ As- | sociation of California, were dissatis- | fied with the present adjustment of rates, as it gives the retail dealers of | the coast an equal show with them- | selves on a great many commodities, and they then petitioned the railroad companies to advance the rate for the | following reasons, which appear on | their petition to the Transcontinental Freight Bureau. “First—We believe that on transcon- tinental shipments 1 c. L rate should in on instance be less than 50 cents per 100 pounds advance of c. L. rate on the same commodity. This principal should apply to class rates as well. Existing | tariffs. to coast treminals as well as to intermediate points are plainly to the advantage of Chicago and St. Louis jobbers and are evidently made with- out consulting the interests of the job- bers on this coast. In proof of this we point to the frequent absence of any differential between c. 1. and 1. c. L rates on commodities which members of our association import largely, and where a difference does exist between |1, e 1. and c. 1. rates it is tco frequently so small as to practically afford the jobber little or no protection. It is a well-recognized principle in all com- mercial transactions that quantity gov- erns prices and in the matter of trans- portation the justification of this prin- ciple is doubly apparent. Ncte that the | present basis of rates practically af- fords the jobber little or no protection, hence they ask that the railroad com- panies advance their less than carload rates so there shall be in no instance | less than 50 cents per hundred pounds difference between c. 1. and 1. c. 1. rates. | They name no maximum difference, | and hence it is fair to assume in some cases they would ask a $150 difference, as there is no limit to their greed. The effect of this would be that the retail- ers and consumers of California, in order to enrich the jobbers would be compelled to pay from 50 cents per 100 and upward over the present tariffs, and very little of this money would find its way into the coffers of the railrcad companies, as the movement of goods would. be principally in carload lots, and the increased freight would go into the pockets of the jobbers.” E.
