Anders against the cor poration owning the works. Anders seeks | to recover damages for personal injuries sustained through the explosion and the | corporation is laboring to prove that the | “fatal accident” was not an accident, but | the result of extraneous influences which the company could not control, the *‘ex- traneous influences” meaning the act of traitor cra Spanish spy who wished 10 deprive the Government of the powder then under course of manufacture. As published In vesterday's Call, short- Iy after the accident a plece of fuse was found near the scene of the explosion, the barbed wire fence was found cut, foot prints led to the location of the nitro- glycerine house; and these facts, taken in connection with the: appearance of a | stranger of Spanish appearance around the works, led the managers and authori- ties to believe that foul play caused the | fatal explosion. Yesterday a number of experts, including Mr. Bermingham, were put on the stand to prove that the re- moval of debris after the first minor ex- plosion was the proper course to pursue d also to prove that the material re- , which caused ster, was not explosive under or- a maining in the slum tubs the di dinary conditions and could only be set o \der extraordinary circumstances. s matter d d of, experts were called to prove that the fuse found shortly after the explosion was not manufactured in California. This could be determined v i the manufacture of the fuse, the si by the amount and quali of cloth used of the bore and manner of manufacture. Samuel J. Eva was first called and after an examination of the fuse said that in S O of foreign man James B. Merritt, another fuse was called and gave the same stating that the exhibit must been imported or brought here by a igner, as no such article was manu- factured on this co: Experts from the Western Fuse and Explosives Company will testify to the s opinions are largely depended upon convince the jury that ‘“extraneous i fluences” indeed caused the terrible ca: trophe Mr. Bermingham said vesterday after- noon that some days before the explosion he was_Informed ‘that the stranger ac- | cused of having applied the match to the works was loitering in the vicinity, He went qut around the grounds, located him and advised him to leave the place if he wanted to keep out of trouble. The stranger caught the next train and ieft the works, but the day before the explc sion he agaln appeared. The_ explosion occurred and he has not since been seen, notwithstanding that a number of oui- cers have been searching for him since that date. Mr. Bermingham says that ap- plication was made to the Government for a guard for the plant, but as the grounds | are large and the number of men nec sary to properly protect them was gre the Government was slow to consider the matter and the destruction of the plant and loss of life were the consequences of the delay. Before the trial is concluded more evidence will be produced tending to establish the contention that the works were blown up by a stranger, and if such is proved then the suit of Anders must | necessarily fall MANY CHANGES MADE IN THE act and these to e CSTON-HISE Smith and Linck Were Blessings. ‘ p The Secretary of the Treasury has granted all the requests made by Special Agents Smith and Linck, who recently overhauled affairs in the Custom-house and made themselves thoroughly ac- quainted with all its needs. The Secre- tary’s desires in the matter were commu- nicated to Port Collector Jackson In a letter yesterday by which the following changes are made: Customs Inspector C. T. Cook made a clerk for the Surveyor at to a s ary of $1500 per annum. The following clerks’ salaries have been increased: C. L. Brown, $1600 to $1800; C. L. Marple, $1400 to $1600; Francis V. Thomas J. Barry ley, $840 to $1000. Handley, formerly store, and J. P. Riley, opener and packe are discontinued. A Buckbee, ope: and packer, is made vator conductor at the liquidating department, to be designated by the Collector, is to be discontinued. The Custom-house must hereafter re- main open from 9 a. m. until 4 p. m., in- stead of from 9 to 3, as heretofore. All smoking by employes of tobacco in any form, as well as smoking of cigar- ettes and Manila cigars, must be discon- tinued In the Custom-house and Appra er's bullding. Storckeeper M. Lipowitz is to remain permanently in charge of the bonded manufacturing warehouse and not changed yearly, as has been the custom. One inspectress in ihe Immigration B reau is to be dismissed. Assistant Weigh- - Raymond H. ‘Wilcox, now keeping books, are ordered to duty as assistant weighers and the Col- lector is empowered to appoint two clerks | at $1200 per annum; also a chemist at $1000 er annum. The Collector is also author- zed and requested to appoint fifteen ad- ditional Customs Inspectors for service under Surveyor Spear in pursuance of the Surveyor's request heretofore made to the Secretary of the Treasury that the growth of the commerce of San Francisco re’gulred that additional number of men. his is the first report of any special agent that did not recommend a decrease of salaries, Leach, $1200 to ‘$1400; $1200 to $1400; A.

Printing A 214 Kearny st., San Francisco, “Except as otherwise provided in this title, the provisions of part II of this code are ap- plicable to and constitute the rules of practice in the proceedings mentioned in this title.” Title XI of part 11T is the one in which said section 1713 is found, and it is entitled "Of proceedings in Probate Courts.’ Said section 387 1s included in vart II and provides that “any person may, before the trial, intervene in an action or proceeding who has an inter- est in the matter in litigation, in the success of either of the parties or an interest against both. An intervention takes place when a third person is permitted to become a party to an action or proceeding between other per- sons, either by joining the plaintiff in claim- ing ‘what s sought by the complaint or by uniting with the defendant in resisting th claims of the plaintiff, or by demanding an: thing adyersely to both the plaintiff and the defendant, and is made by complaint setting forth the grounds upon which the intervention rests, filed by leave of the court and served upon the parties to the action or proceeding who have not appeared, and upon the attorney: of the parties who have appeared, who may answer or demur to it as if it were an original complaint.” Notwithstanding the very Ingenious argu- ment of applicant’'s counsel, it is quite clear to my mind that the aforesaid section 387 of the Code of Procedure does not apply to a probate proceeding wherein a will is con- tested either before or after its probate, for the simple reason that it is virtually other- wise provided by sections 1312 and 1327 of said AR'S "WIDOW” IS BARRED BY JUDGE TROUTT e AL Cannot Intervene in the Son’s Contest. e MATTER WILL BE APPEALED A code. By the two sections last cited any in- terested person who may desire to conte will, either before or after probate, is directed how to proceed, and is limited to one y after probate within which to contest the same and to obtain a revocation of the p thereof. Evidently, If the applicant were per- | mitted to become a contestant of the will af- ter the lapse of a year from the probate there- | of, under the gulse of an intervenor, then the aforesald limitation of the statute respesting the time within which a person may contest | a will after its probate, would be nullified, and the statute in effect, would be indirectly re- pealed. Petitioner further contends that section 1333 of the aforesaid code, when properly construed in_conjunction with the aforesaid section gives the right to any interested person (with- out resort to Intervention) to contest even after a year from its probat any other perfon has, provid within the year, taken the necessary steps to contest the will. | The aforesaid section 1333 declares that *if no person within one year after the probate of a ‘will, contest the same or the validit thereof, the probate of the will is conclusiv saving to infants and persons of unsound mind, a lige period of one year after their respective | disabilities are removed.” This contention of petitioner means, of course, that the person who is thus permitted to conest a will after a year from its pro- bate, may rely upon anv of the statutory grounds of opposition to the will, whether urged by the original contestant or not. Our | | 262.) Supreme Court, however, has determined that | the grounds of contest cannot.be amended af- ter the lapse of the year limited for the in- stitution of a contest, so as to add a mew | ground of contest. (In re Wilson, 117 Cal, | Hence this contention cannot be main- | tained. | The sald section 1333 apparently means that if any person within one year after the pro- | bate of a will, contests the same, then the | probate thereof is mot conclusive until such | contest fails. It certainly does not confer a | right on any other perso nto begin a contest | of the will after a year from the probate | thereof. | It is, therefors, my opinion that the a plicant’ is not_entitled to file a petition in in- tervention and that she Is too late to be per- mitted to contest the validity of the aforesaid | will or the probate thereof. The petitioner's aforesaid application is ac- cordingly denfed Notwithstanding the opinion of the court it is said that an appeal will be taken and the right of the petitioner to intervene finally determined. If the Su- preme Court holds that Judge Troutt's decision should be sustained then the ap- plication of Mrs. Craven for a family al- lowance from decedent’s estate will be prosecuted to a final decision. Mrs. Craven has met severa] adverse decisions, but she has not yet lost hope, and 2 me ry round of litigation must be met by the Fair heirs and decisions obtained thereon before the end can be announced. PROB:BLY A MURDER. Remains of an Unknown Female In- fant, Entirely Nude, Found Floating in the Bay. The nude body of an unknown fems infant was found floating in the bay yes terday near the gas works at Nort Point. The remains were very much de- composed, and when examined at t Morgue it was ascertained that the ch was about a. week old at the time of its death. The body had been in the water so long that all evidences of murder had been removed (assuming that a murde had been committed). If child_had died a natural death and its parents wer too poor to provide for its burial th would ed_the Coroner and ha the rer by under- taker. the par shed to con ceal - their identity they would have de- posited the body on some vacant lot where it would be found. 3 The fact that the body was thrown into the water leads very directly to the sus- picion that the infant was m ered SUPREME COURT MUST DECIDE THE VARLIOUS POINTS. Son gk Mrs. Craven Is Shut Out by the Statute of Limitations, but Other Grounds Remain for Convest. e — Mrs. Nettie R. Craven, posing as the widow of the late James G. Fair, has met another defeat. Yesterday morning Judge Troutt handed down a decision in | which he denied Mrs. Craven the right to intervene in the contest of Charles L. Fair to the will of his deceased father. This is @ serious matter with Mrs. | Craven, as it cuts her off from rnnnm;;g; the | one of her strongest leads toward | glittering millions of the deceased cap- | italist's estate.
