Fes g PATRICK ROGERS DEFAULTED —_— WARRANT ISSUED FOR HIS AR-| REST FOR EMBEZZLEMENT. e e He Has Followed in the Footsteps of Bernard Ward and John Dough- erty, Now Awaiting Trial. RN The officials of the Pacific Coast Marine Firemen’s Association have apparently in the past imagined that they had a legiti- mate claim upon the funds of the organi- aztion and -atilized them for their own uses and purposes. Bernard Ward, an ex-tfeasurer of association, and John Dougherty, an ex- financlal secretary, are now awaiting their trials before the Superior Court on charges of embezzling the funds of the association to a considerable amount, and now another ex-financial secretary 1s wanted on a similar charge. Yesterday Andrew Pryal, the present treasurer of the association, rest of Patrick Rogers, ex-financlal secre- tary, on the charge of felony embezzle- ment, the particular amount specified be- ing $. A demand was made vesterday upon Rogers by Pryal for the return of the money, but he said he did not have it, nence the warrant. Rogers was appointed financial secre- ry after Dougherty, but was deposed three months ago after the expos- ures in connection with Ward and Dough erty, and since then Pryal and the present financial sacretary, Bell, have been care ully examining the books. They allege they have.already discovered a short- age in Rogers' accounts of nearly made up of various small sums, chiefly for initiation fees of $50 each. It will be impossible for some time to ascertain the full amount of the defalcations of Rogers as books and vouchers required cannot be found to be submitted to experts who have been appointed to go through the books. Rogers was a_witness against. Dough- erty, and when Dougherty was examined he declared that the money he charged with embezzling had been given by him to Rogers. Rogers_was around the City Hall ye: rday afternoon with the object of sur- ndering himself, but when he discovered 1t he would have to give heavy bonds left for the purpose of securing bond men. He says he can prove that he has not embezzléd a cent of the money be- ionging to the association. SOUTHERN PACIFIC LOSES SOME LAND SUPREME COURT DECIDES IN FAVOR OF SETTLERS. ta abou Important Question Determined in Contests for Odd Sections in In- demnity Grant Limits. A decision of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County in two important railroad land cases was upheld yesterday by the Supreme Court. The Southern Pacific Railroad Company brought separate ac- tions against Frank A. Wood and others and Frederick B. Jacks angd others. By an act of Congress of 1866 the rallroad company was granted every odd section of land lying within ten miles of its line, which grant was for the purpose of as- sisting in the building of the road. The lands in_question in this action, now w settled, lie within the indemnity limits of the grant to the railroad. The defendants claim the land under patents issued to them as settlers under the land laws of the United States. To the complaints to oust them from the lands the defendants put in a demurrer, explained in the last decision, and from which the railroad company appealed. The sustaining of the demurrer also sustains the claims of the settlers, and as there are no doubt many similar cases of settlers within the in demnity limits of the company, the de- cision is of no small importance. An in teresting point is brought out by higher court in this language: Whatever right the plamtiff asserts or may have is based upon said act of Congress of 1863 and its own acts thereunder, while the defendants’ rights are based upon the pre- »mption laws of the United States and their compli; e therewith: and as the defendants patent was issued prior to the selection of the ‘ame lands by the plaintiff they must have a better right if said lands were subject to pre- -mptign; and that they were so subject unless withdrawn from pre-emption by the act of 1366 or by executive action thereunder fs not aquestioned, Section 6 of sald act (above quoted) provides: ““And the odd sections of tand hereby granted shall not be liable to sale or .entry or pre-emption before or after they are surveyed, excent by said company as pro- vided In this act”; but it is further provided that the pre-emption act of 1841 and the home- stead act of 182 and the acts amendatory thereof ‘“‘shall be and the same are heréby ex- tended to all other lands on the line of said road where surveyed, excepting those hereby granted to sald company The court upon this poifit takes the view that: “The title of the ntee re- lates back to the date of the act, but does not attach to the lands to which the United States did not nave full title at that date, or were otherwise excepted from operation of the graat, even though they should afterward be freed from claim or possession whirh excinded them under the grant,” and in conclusion ays But it Is not necessary to a decision of the present case to decide that question (the right of the Land Department to withdraw certain indemnity lands from settlement), for as these lands were not withdrawn by 'force of the act of Congress, and the withdrawal having been revoked, and as the complaint does not allege that Woods' settlement was made be: fore the revocation, or while they were with- drawn, it is not shown that his settlement was fllegal or unauthorized or that the patent was improperly issued. ——————— A double love tragedy, of Salvador | Pited " Chn becarried in vest and San Francisco, in next Sunday’s Caul. the | swore to a, complaint before Judge Mogan for the ar- | 2000, | the | KNOCKED DOWN AND KICKED BY FOOTPADS e Startling Experience of Dr. Campbell. e {FELLED WITH AN INSTRUMENT e WHILE PROSTRATE HE WAS BEATEN AND XICKED. kg His Shouts for Help Brought a Citi- zen to His Assistance and the Daring Highwaymen Fled. e Dr. J. H. Campbell, 8153 Twenty-fourth | street, is nursing a pair of blackened ey and a swollen face and bruised head, the result of an unexpected meeting with two footpads late Wednesday night. The de- tectives have been notified of the affair, but so far no arrests have been made. Dr. Campbell was on his way home Wednesday- night about 11:3) o'clock, and | when he was walking along Twenty- fourth street, between Florida and Bry- ant, two men jumped out of the shade of a building and ordered him to throw up | his hands. He was not quick enough in obeying the order and one of them struck | him on the head with some instrument, knocking him down. The blow did not render him unconscious and he shouted lustily for help. This angered the two foo ads, and they kicked the prostrate physician on_ the head and face, apparently with the object | of rendering him unconscious. The doctor continued to shout for help, and fortun- ately a citizen swung round B street, and as soon as the footpads him they took to thelr heels and disap- peared. “The citizen assisted the doctor to rise, and helped him home, Dr. Campbell is still suffering from the | effects of the severe beating he received and is thankful that he escaped more se- | rious injury and that he was not robbed of his money and watch. He is satisfied that the men's object was robbery and they would have accomplished their pur- pose if the citizen had not appeared op- portunely on the scene. Owing to the darkness he was unable to give a correct description of the two men, but one was short and the other tall, 'and hoth appeared to be young men. Chief Lees instructed Captain_Gillen to detail Detectlvés Graham and Fitzgerald | on the case, but there is little chance of | the identity of the footpads being dis- | covered. In the Divorce Court.
