A. H. Bprague, representing an asso- clation of miners in Shasta County, called at the office of United States District At- torney Coombs yesterday and charged that perjury had been committed by Wil- lard M. Cole, an employe of Louis T. Wright of the Mountain Copper Com- Limited, at Keswick, in that unty. Mr. Sprague said that Mr. Wright had made application for the purchase with scrip of 4590, acres of land in the vicinity of the smelting works of the company, the land being described in Mr. Cole's af- fidavit as agricultural and not fit for any other purpose. It was sald also that there are at the present time about one thousand = legal mineral locations upon the land so Cole and Wright knew at the time the af- fida made that the land was of a mineral character. There is now @ suit pending in the United States Court in this city to re- strain the Mountain Copper Company from continuing smelting, the applicants for the injunction setting forth that the fumes arising from the smelter were de- stroying the Government timber and all other vegetation in the vicinity of the works. r. Sprague nna his friends say that the land is sought sd that the Injunc- tion suit may be thrown out of court, the land In controversy comprising the whole of the area affected by the smoke. United States Attorney Coombs, hearing Mr. Sprague’s statement, au- thorized J. P. Pryor, a land agent, to visit the premises and report upon the character of the land. Mr. Coombs said that if Mr. Sprague’s statement should be found to be correct he will prosecute the makers of the affidavit for perjury. —_——————— Died in the Street. A middle-aged man, very emaclated and weak from long sickness, fell to the side- walk yesterday morning on Halleck street near Sansome. Police Patrolman Butler found him unconscious and sent him to after | the City Recetving Hospital, but when the wagon arrived there it was found that he was dead. Fromdylg:n found on his person it was learned that his name was Albert Heinrich Jansen and that he was a native of Germany.

Attempted to Influence a Young Girl to Favor Her Father Who Is on Trial for Murdering Her Mother. R i W. J. Hurley, jury briber, recently re- leased from San Quentin after serving time for the crime that gave him his titie, was detected in Judge Lawlor's court yes- terday morning engaged in an effori to influence Miss Abble Richardson to as- sume a kindly demeanor toward her father, Charles H. Richardson, who i5 01 trial for the murder of his wife, Ellen, whom he shot to death in her home at 948 Howard street on the night of October 10, 1899. Richardson claims that the ~c- volver was accidentally discharged when he was using it to defend himself against an assault made by his wife upon him | with-a bung-starter. Miss Richardson, however, believes her mother was the innocent party in the tragedy and she refused to stand by her father during his trial. Hurley is a friend of the accused, and he took it upon him- self to attempt to influence the girl in her father's favor. He was not discreet, huw- ever, and a mild sensation' was created when he was discovered and driven frem the court room by Judge Lawlor and warned to leave the' vicinity of the court or take the consequences. Just before the noon hour it was report: ed to Judge Lawlor that Hurley was op- erating-in the courtroom. The big e policeman was pointed out to the court; and Judge Lawlor ordered . that be be 000 miles, half of which was made with ng from delirum_tremens. winds until August 5, when we red a gale'from south to southwest, in which wh lost and split several sails.

Hurley answered, and then, in re- sponse to the court’'s question, sald that he was not a witness in the case at the bar, but was a friend of the accused. | "“Ts it not a fact,” continued Judge Law- | 1or. * that vou have been convicted of a | felony—an attempt at jury bribery—and tiiat you were the defendant in case No. 10,445 and was convicted of the crime charged by a jury in Department Six cf this court and served the sentence im- posed by the court for the offense?” “Yes,” answered Hurley, ‘“but the charge against me was that of attempting to influence a jury.” “Did you not in this court endeavor to influence Miss Abble Richardson, a wit- ness In the case?”’ “I only spoke to her and asked her, ‘Do you want to speak to your father? The officer told me not to speak to the witnesses In the case and I left her. Even if T have been in San Quentin my word is as good as though I had never been there."” “Your word has very little weight with the court,” - continued Judge Lawlor, “and I bring you here to let you know that you must keep out of this court and from its vicinity. If you fail to the admonition of the court, the court will believe that your presence is | intmical to the interests of truth and the due ‘administration of Justice. If you come again the court wiil misapprehend | the reasons for your coming, and you | will be made to feel the weight of official | displeasure.” “I will not come again, I warrant you that I will not,” quickly answered Hur- ley, and speedily left the courtroom. He did not return during the afternoon, and judging from the expression of terror on his face he will seek new flelds if he intends to pursue the trade that landed him behind the bars. The curtain was hardly up for the first act in the trial of R. H. McDonald Jr., charged with wrecking the People's Home Savings Bank, when Hurley boasted that he had “fixed” six of the jurors. He was arrested and convicted for attempting to | influence the jury, and yesterday's epi- sode has again brought him into the pub- lic gaze. Hurley turned pale In the Divorce Court. Decrees of divorce have been granted Mary Carney from Frank Carney on the ground of willful neglect, Francis Spiller from Dorothy Spiller on the ground of desertion and Charlotte Higgins from Arthur_Higgins on the ground of deser- tion. Buits for divorce have been filed by Mary D. Gelck against Frederick A. d’elck for cruelty, Willlam J. Fieber against Mary. E. Fieber for cruelty and ellle Thill against Nicholas Thill for desertion.
