W. DOHRMANN HOME. F. W. Dohrmann, president of the Mer- chants’ Association, has returned to this city after a tour lasting about elght months in Europe. During his absence Mr. Dohrmann has visited al the prin- cipal cities of the East across the water. One of the objects of his trip was to observe and make a study of the municipal conditions of the cities of other lands. ‘Another matter to which the local mer- chant has paid not a little attention was the colleges of commerce, the desire be- ing to assist in the establishing and en- larging on the commercial branch recent- ly added to the California State institu- tion of learning. The Berkeley College of Commerce is to a great extent in- debted to the Merchants’ Association for its existence, as this branch of learning has for years been one of Mr. Dohrmann’s hobbles, hence his interest in similar es- tablishments elsewhere. On the subject of municipal improve- ments the traveler is not yet ready to talk, as he proposes to make known his views through the association over which he presides. He would not even make comparisons, although he admitted that San Francisco will stand many improve- ments and be none the worse for them.

G.; James | ARE AFRAID LEES IS A KIDNAPER| MRS. BOTKIN’S CASE AGAIN BE-| FORE THE COURT. | George A. Knight Accuses the Chief of Threatening to Spirit His Client Out of the State. George A. Knight is fearful that unless some disposition is made of the habeas corpus proceedings in the case of Mrs. Cordelia Botkin she will be spirited away by the overzealous Chief-of Police, Isaiah Lees. The woman charged with the mur- der of Mrs. John P. Dunning and Mrs. Deane appeared in court yesterday morn- ing, accompanied by her counsel, and a lively half-hour session followed. Knight addressed the court and stated that he ald not propose that any further delay should take place in the matter of the habeas corpus proceedings, and demand- ed that the writ be returnéd immediatel for the court's decision. Judge Cook failed to view the matter in the same light, and stated that he would be ready and 'willing to take the case up ims mediately after the Governor issues the warrant for Mrs. Botkin's extradition. This did not please Knight. He sald unless -the court made some protective order Lees might take the law in his own hands and spirit his client out of the way. ““What Is there to prevent Lces from kidnaping Mrs. Botkin and spirit- ing her out of the way?" said Knlghlt). It is understood that he has openly boasted to Gcvernor Budd that he was willin, to take the risk; that it merely lnvolveg a finé of $500 and imprisonment in the Qounty Jail for five days in the event of conviction for contempt of court, and he thought he could ‘stand that.’ On this statement Judge Cook made an or- der holding Mrs. Botkin in custody until Tuesday next. By that time it is ex- pected that the Governor's warrant will ave arrived and the way made clear for the consideration of the writ of habeas corpus. Lees was present in court when Knight intimated that he (Lees) might walk gut of the State with his client, and he took | exception to the remark. Lees said it was true that he had made the remark attributed to him, but it was only made to a counter threat made by Knight that there were fifty-two counties in the State and that Lees would be hauled before the court In each and every one before he would be allowed to extradite Mrs. Botkin on any warrant from Governor Budd or legal paper whatsoever, oo =] EXTRAORDINARY Comforters= $|l5 rived—Full Size Comfort- ers, silkoline covered, in new patterns, filled with pure white cotton wool, knotted.
