LEE D, CRAIG'S REPUTATION IS PUT IN ISSUE Witnesses Testify Against Him During Hearing of Fair Case. | Respondents Being Unable to Dis- prove That He Acknowledged Marriage Contract Attack His Veracity. e Lee D.

He sald the acknowledgment was made in a doorway on Sutter street and was never overanxious that the fact of his marriage and the world. |~ Counsel representing the executorsof the | Fair estate as well as the heirs have con- | to disprove his assertion, however, but for the purpose of creating a doubt in the mind of the court regarding his assertion | several witnesses were cailed yesterday to testify as to his reputation for truth, honesty and integrity. The first witness on this line was Edgar D. Peixotto, for- mer Assistant District Attorney. “Craig’s reputation is bad,” heé said. *“I would not believe him under oath If his testimony was contradictéd by a reputable person. 1 have reason to believe that he gave false testimony in the Von Tiedeman Case. He swore that certain deeds in that se were regularly acknowledged before hen, in fact, such was not the case. James K. Lynch, cashier of the First National Bank, sald that he believed Cralg's character as well as his reputa- tion to be bad, and added that he would not accept his’ identification at the bank because he would not believe him. “How long have you questioned Craig’s honesty?"’ was asked. “For more than nineteen years,” the witness responded. “And I once attempt- ¢d to have him removed from office, but failed.” Joseph Hutchinson, a Palo Alto lawyer and capitalist, said that 1. C. Harrison and W. W. Chase had told him that Craig | was not to be trusted. On cross-examin- ation, however, it developed that Cralg and Hutchinson had engaged in a busi- ness controversy, and Lafe Pence suggest- ed that doubtless this faet Influenced his opinion. W. C. Spencer, P. J. Curtis and James K. Moffatt also testified that Cralg’s reputation for truth, honesty and integrity was not good. George W. Hopkins and* Charles C, Fisher gave testimony regarding a real estate transaction which in a measure tangled up the business hours on days Mrs. Craven said the Senator was out with her. Thomas S. Andrews, James M. ‘Wilkins and Herbert Clarke gave similar testimony, after which an adjournment was taken. Counsel for the respondents announced that three witnesses would be called next Monday and the case would then close so far as they were concerned.

San Francisco Are | Supervisors’ Committee on Public | Utilities Holds a Meeting and | Considers Merits of Prop- ositions Submitted. R e The offers of several individuals to sell | the city a water supply system were con- | sidered at a meeting of the Supervisors' | Committee on Public Utilities last night. | J. E. Russell explained his proposition to | pipe 150,000,000 gallons of water daily from tue north and middle forks of the Amer- | ican River. City Engineer Grunsky was present and stated that immense quan- tities of water were golng to waste at the points named. Russell claims to own 820 acres of land on both sides of the river. The diversion of waters, he said, would affect the rights of other users, and the water would have to be stored. Russell sald he did not own any reservoir | sites_and the American Ditch Company | and Folsom Water Company would prob. ably oppose the use of the water by other | parties. Hydraulic mining operations are | being carrfed on thirty miles above Rus- | sell’s property. M. C. Taylor offered to sell his power | and water right of the North and Middle | Yuba rivers for $175,000. It would cost | $12,000,000 to deliver 60,000,000 gallons daily | in this city by a two-pipe line. His right | compriseu a flow of 175,000,000 gallons daily in the dryest season. Taylor sald | there was only one party appropriating | the water above his property, and no one used it below the point to which he had | a recorded right. | Chairman Reed reported that another offer had been made by the Yuba Electric and Power Company, which has an aver- age flow of 162,000,000 gallons daily, at 60 feet above sea level. The storage ca- acity is well developed by a system of akes, and power could be sold to Oak- ln{‘l‘ldlrther consideration of the various of- | fers was postponed until next Thursday’s | meeting. | | Horse Show Dates. The directors of the San Francisco and | San Mateo Agricultural Association, with which s merged the Horse Show Assocla- | tion of this city, have selected the two weeks from September 24 to October 6 for | their first annual meeting, The attractions will include an open air horse show, ex- hibit of livestock, trotting races, ' polo | and polo pony races.
