BEARING ON THE ADAMS CASE THE PRELIMINARY EXAMINA- TION RESUMED. Efforts to Reconcile Officer Herlihy’s Statements With Those of Grip- man Cox—Sergeant Duke Testifies. Much of the time at the hearing of M Minnie Adams, charged with pols- | oning her two-year-old son, was con- red yesterday afternoon in exposing | vagaries of Druggist George W. Loehr's cuckoo clock. Mr. Loehr him- self testified to its utter unreliability and general unworth. According to the evidence it is about as thoroughly dis- reputable a ticker as ever hung on a wall, and no credence whatever can be placed on it. Just imagine a clock that without any provocation will brazenly lie to the public by simply showing its face | and whirling its dupes on toward grave before their allotted time, or else misleading its victims into loitering on the w realization that the world has left them and while everybody else is go- it day th dragging along with the affairs of day before yesterday! If that clock were placed on trial for perjury it would just naturally lie out of conviction by showing the Judge that it hadn't been arrested yet, Think of the havoc it might play with Druggist Loehr's customers if they un- dertook to take their medicines by it. For instance, a man who had to take a powder after breakfast would just as likely as not have to wake himself up when his own timepiece said it was mid- night and trapes around the bedroom and fall over the hassock and wake un the baby Just because of the propensity of that clock for handling time so reck- lessly. Why, if a man started down to the corner for half an hour he might not get home again until breakfast time, and he never would be able to convince It's a cuckoo, sure enough, and it's a ce of the entire MWest- 1 Addition. No wonder the defense fought to ex- clude any evidence in which that clock figured to account for the discrepancy in the time the defendant is alleged to have | left the drugstore and when she boarded a westbound corner. Aside from the thorough exposure of the clock’s unworth, little of importance ady made putlic was developed. Policeman” Herlihy was the first wit- ness. It was Officer Herlihy who stood on the corner of Geary and Devisadero Geary street car at the streets, at Loehr's drugstore, on the evening of Sunday, March 12, and saw a woman he identifies as the defendant come out, and, removing the wrapper from the bottle, tear off the label, which she threw away, after which she boarded a westbound Geary-street car. As near as he could fix the time this was about five minutes before 9. Gripman Cox, who has already testified that the woman rode on his car, fixed the time at two minutes after 9. Herlihy was subjected to a long and tedious cross-examination at the hands of Bar- rister Guilfoyle, but held to his original story in the maln. He picked up the frag- ments of the label and took them into the drugstore. It was a red label, containing the words, “Carbolic acid.” A bottle on which was pasted a simi- lar label was shown him for comparison, which the defense vigorously objected to, as neither bottle nor label was the original. Sergeant Duke stated to a Call reporter that it was impossible to find the bot- tle in which the acid was originally sold. He said he made a partial search for it on the day of the polsoning, and the fol- Jowing day he went out to the Tyrrell home to continue the search, but found Bddy Tyrrell, defendant’s brother, had carefully raked over the whole yard. It was admitted, he sald, that It was the first time the yard had been cleaned up. Drugglist Loéhr next gave his cloc a reputation for falsehood and unreliabil- ity such as no honest clock would sub- | mit to without resenting. Theén Sergeant Duke was called to the witness-stand and had not concluded his direct testimony when court adjourned until 2 o'clock this afternoon. His testi- mony, as far as given, was identical with that he gave at the Coroner's Inquest. The defense will undoubtedly subject him to a rigid cross-examination in the hope of tripping him up on some points of vital importance., CRUELTY NOT PROVED.

Tt was also testi- fied that horses will always gnaw red- wood fences en they can get the chance. The defendant’s instructions to his men were to treat the horses under their care kindly and feed them well. ————— GOAT ISLAND PUNCTURED.

'UNDERWRITERS WHO SOUGHT SOLITUDE SECRET SESSION OF INSURANCE MEN AT CLIFF HOUSE. Talked on Rates and Commissions, but Came to No Definite Con- clusion on Either. The Pacific Coast Board of Underwrit- ers sought solitude out at the Clff House yesterday, where the members might con- | fer within sound of the sea, yet out of the | reach of messages from their respective various office The session was a continuation of the one held recently in Monterey.

The rates on San Francisco property caused most of the argument. They were in process of ‘equalization” during the greater part of yesterday's session, and another day will be spent on them before they are finally brought down or up to satisfactory shape. 1t was explained by Charles D.

FINAL ARGUMENT IN RACE TRACK INJUNCTION SUIT Murasky Takes Case Under Advisement. NIGHT SESSION OF COURT PROMISES TO RENDER A DECIS- ION SATURDAY. Will Rule Whether the Police Can Be Debarred From Entering the Grounds at Ingleside Without Warrants. The question whether Chief Lees and the officers under his command shall be debarged from entering the grounds of the Pacific Coast Jockey Club at Ingle- side to enforce the anti-poolselling ordin- ance passed by the Board of Supervisors on March 13 now rests largely upon the decision of Superior Judge Murasky in the injunction proceedings instituted by the racing assocfation. The c sub- mitted to the court at 10:30 night, after arguments extending over three days, and a dJecision will be rendered Sat- urday, covering all the points at issue. . The court has three motions under ad- visement—first, the motion of the Jockey Club to set aside the modification of Judge Daingerfield's injunction and to restore the original injunction; second, the mo- tion of the respondents for the dissolu- tion of the original injunction, and the motion of the respondents to set the case for trial. The granting of the first wouid act to restrain the police from entering the racetrack grounds for the purpose of securing evidence of violation of the or- dinance or making arrests of bookmakers and their employes except on warrants. The second would leave matters as at present So far as the interference with the authority of the police is concerned temporarily, and the third would bring the entire matter into court for a final de- cision on the merits of the entire con- troversy in the Superior Court, subject to appeal to the Supreme Court. ‘the arguments have been exhaustive on both sides, the of the respon- dents being ably presented by Attory Garret Mcinerney and District Attorney Murphy, while the racing ociation was rep!

In this they had acted within their authority, as poolselling had been declared a misde- meanor by the Board of Supervisors of the city and county of San Francisco in the legal exercise of its legislative power. He placed the Pacific Coast Jockey Club | on the same plane with the bookmakers, inasmuch as it had sold the latter the privilege of doing business at the race- track, and had by so doing placed itseif in the position of an accomplice in the violation of the law.

'This racetrack is a public place and subject to the police regulations of the city. The public is in- vited to gather there to witness contests | of speea between horses, and any person is freely admitted to the grounds without uestion on the payment of an admission ee. It would be a strange condition of | affairs if the officers of the law alone were to be debarred from entering the ground: | because the proprietors of the racetrack | objected to their possible interference with the unlawful practice of gambling, | as conducted by the bookmakers with their sanction and indorsement. I ask the court if the police are to be prohibited | from entering public resorts where all other citizens are freely admitted, not- | withstanding they have rellable informa- tion that a crime is being or is about to be committed therein? | “I ask further, Will this court hold that an arrest cannot be made until after a crime has been committed and have the police officers of this city no authority to arrest a man when they have reliable information that he is about to commit a crime, without a warrant? “‘Suppose the dead walls of this city were placarded with the announcement that an indecent performance was to be given in a certain hall or theater and the Chief of Police should send a force of officers to the place for the purpose of preventing a violation of the laws and the | proprietor of the hall or theater should object to their entrance—would the court hold that they had no right under the law to enter regardle: c by the plaintiffs an affidavit that there has been no pools sold | since the anti-gambling _ordinance was | passed. We have the affidavits of Chief of Polfce Lees, Captain Witman and Cap- | tain Gillen, which have been filed in this case, to the effect that the seclling of 00l§ has been carried on at the track n their presence, openly and flagrantly, on at least two occasions since the pass- age of that ordinance. The Police De- | partment is in auty bound to enforce the observance of the laws of the city and State and its usefulness wouid be serious- ly impaired if the Chicf of Police and hig subordinates should be restrained | from the exercise of their official func- tions, as is contemplated by the original injunction fn this case.” ney's argument proceedings were con- m{{x;d until 7:30 p. m. vhen court reconvened in the ev A!(orne{ Ach began his closing il ment without loss of time.
