Not knowing he had been stabbed, Frank grabbed his brother and in trying to dis- erm him one of the fingers of his right hand was cut. After he had taken the knife from Charles the wounded boy walked across the street to an electric light, and while examining his hand to see how badly it was cut he discovered that he had been stabbed in the side. By this time his brother, evidently fearing arrest, had run along Fourteenth street and disappeared in the darkness. Acting on the advice of a friend Frank went to the Railroad Hospital, where the wound in his side was treated. Subsequently he was removed to the Re- ceiving Hospital. On being informed of he cutting Captain Beymour sent Detect- ves Ed Gibson and Crockett to arrest the knife wielder. They visited the scene of the stabbing. but were unable to get a trace of the boy. Shortly after Frank had been taken to the Recelving Hospital his mother visited him. Bhe told the doctors tnat Charles had been away from h month and seemed bent on leading a dis- solute life. Frequently, she said, he de- clared that he would kill his brother. She paid little attention to his threats until several days ago, when he showed her a knife after remarking that he intended using it on Frank. She told the latter of his younger brother's bloodthirsty re- marks, but thinking he was only joking he laughed at them. “This is not the first time that my he Vicious Charles Pelletier Plu 1 orried over nges Knife Into the Side of His Brother Frank, Whom He Had Frequently Threatened to Murder. 1 YOUTH WHO WAS STABBED BY HI§ VICIOUS YOUNGER BROTHER | | WHILE TRYING TO INDUCE HIM TO RETURN HOM AND WHO IS | NOW LYING IN THE RECEIVING HOSPITAL. | L <+ | brother has tried to murder me,” sald was of an extremely vicious tempera- | Frank. “‘Some time ago I spoke to him , ment and was never without his trusted about ‘his wayward tendencies, and he | weapon—a long, keen-bladed knife. . picked up a carving-knife and hurled it| The doctors at the hospital say that fne | at me. managed to dodge the weapon | knife penet | and thus saved myself from being injured. ome for about a | Two days ago he threatened to send me to the Morgue, and my mother told me to look out for him.

JUDGE ROSS T0 BIVE DECISION ON OIL CLAINS Issues Between Scrippers and Placer Locators to Be Settled. Judge Ross will declde to-morrow at Los Angeles the latest cases . involving the conflicting claims of the scrippers and the mineral locators to ofl lands in this State. Two sults were tried as one, the facts be- ing about the same and the issues lden- tical. The plaintiffs were the Cosmos Expioration Company and the Pacific Land and Improvement Company. The defendants were the Gray Eagle Ofl Com- pany and the Elmwood Oil Company. The new claims in this sult are that the land was not known as mineral land until the mineral oll was actually found and that evidence of oil formation did not en- title it to be considered as oil land until discovery of ofl was made. There was a large array of attorneys in Los Angeles when the testimony was taken. Judge Ross has notified the lawyers that the de- cision will be given upon the opening of court. The decision will be of great inter- est all over the State and especlally in the Kern River district. W. S. Miller, manager of the Standard Oil Company's interests on the coast, has beer interviewed concerning the attitude of his company toward the Kern River district producers of petroleum. He said that the Standard Company was going into the Kern River district to buy ofl. He was not prepared to say anythinj concerning the Sunset District until a rail- way was built in there, supplying a way to get the oil out. Three 35000 barrel tanks had been shipped to the Kern River district and others would be supplied as they- were needed for the use of the com- pany. No contracts had yet been made in the Kern River district, for the company was not ready to do business there yet, but would be in about one month. & company would not refine the Kern River Gistrict oil. It was entirely a fuel propo- sition. 'If greater storage was needed in San Francisco it would be provided. All this Mr. Miller said. “Why has the Standard entered this field?” counter-queried Mr. Miller. ‘‘Be- cause we are in the petroleum business and because we have been importuned by producers and dealers to do s0.” The fire -that destroyed _the rump!ng plant of the Oxnard and Sea Cliff Com: pany at Summerland will have the effect gl;l lflt‘wp!n' sixty wells in the center of the Ernst A. Denicke says that probably the greatest use for crude fuel ofl in Cali- fornfa will be found {n metallurgical work. Ol Is used at the Selby Smelting Works in melting down silver. All the oil used is blown with steam. The solution to the question of how to work copper ores pro- fitably may be the use of petroleum. A company has begun operations in the vicinity of Tehachapl. It bears the appro- priate name of the Summit Company. No ofl has been found there, nor have there been any marked seepages to be observed, but there are great expectations based upon the report of an expert. The Los Angeles Herald calls attention to a phenomenon in the market for oil company’s stock. It says: Students of stock transactions on ‘change cannot but note the slight effect produced on values by good news. There are stocks which represent property on which repeated strikes have been made, some of them of great im- portance, and yet the stock is selling to-day at practically the same price it brought before ol was discovered. In one case a company now has a dally production of fully400 barrels from three wells and the stock has not fluctu- ated more than five points since the company was a non-producing wildcat. This makes it look as though most of the stock selling is based on the hope of immediate returns rather than selection for revenue producers. Much of the stock of many companies-is held as a source of present or prospective revenue, but it looks as though little buying with that In view took place on the exchange, Lick School Wins.

The United States army transport Grant | arrived from Manila via Nagasakl yes- terday. She brought over fifty-four cabin passengers, eighty-three discharged sol- diers and eighteen discharged® sailors, 350 sick men and eight insane soldiers. The ship came in with her flag at half mast, there having been thirteen deaths during the voyage. Leaving the Philippines many of the| men were in a precarious condition and | some of them who are now on the road | to recovery never expected to see San Francisco. While the Grant was in Naga- saki harbor Private Edward A. Stearnes, ninth Infantry, died inst. The same day Lieutenant Easton Burchard, assistant surgeon, Fortieth In- fantry, died of chronic dysentery. On September 4 in latitude 42 degrees 33 minutes north, longitude 29 degrees 58 minutes east, Corporal Hugh C. Miller, Company C, Thirty-second Infantry, died of pneumonia. Private James W. Dougherty, Company ¥, Twenty-first Infantry, died on Septem- bér 7 of dysentery in iatitude 37 degrees 47 minutes north, longitude 145 degrees 16 minutes east. Four days later, in latitude 42 degrees 56 minutes north, longitude 168 degrees 4 minutes east, Private Robert Goodrich died from the same disease. On September 12 Private Warren Drum- mond died of chronic dystentery in lati- tude 42 Gegrees 45 minutes north, longi- tude 174 degre=s 15 minutes east, while the next day when the transport was almost on the equator Private John Martin passed away irom the same disease. Private John L, Showaliter, Company A Thirty-ninth Infantry, died September 1 and Private Maynard E. any B, Thirty-ninth Infantry, died on gemember 17, both of dysentery; Thomas J. Milloy, Company F, Thirty-ninth In- fantry, died September 18 of malaria; Pri- vate Charles Owens, Company G, Thirty- ninth Infantry, died September 21 of chronic diarrhea, and Corporal Archibald Roulston, Company F, 'wenty-seventh Infantry, died of acute dystentery on the same date. Both of these men passed away while the ship was in sight of port and their last wish was gratified as they got a sight of their native land before passing away. The remains of all the men who dled on the way up were brought home. The re- mains of thirty-seven other soldiers who died in the Philippines were also brought home on the transport. Of these latter, Captain Willlam L. Murphy was shot through the lungs in an infantry charge on August 13 last, while First Lieutenant Frederick Hulseberg came to his death on August 1 from a gunshot wound. All the others whose remains came upon the Grant perished from disease. The cabin passengers on the Grant were: Colonel J. M. J. Sanno, Eighteenth In- fantry; Lieutenant Colonel James R. Campbell, Thirtieth Infantry; Major J. A. Augur, Fourth Cavalry; Captain George Pelmer, Ninth Infantry; Captain Edward Chynoweth, Seventeenth Infantry; Cap- tain Charles W.

Among the Grant's. passengers were seven Filipinos, five of whom have come to the United States with the intention of benefiting themselves by the country's superior _cducational opportunities. The youths vary in age from 12 to 15. They are accompanied by Don F. Abreu, a prominent Filipino, reputed to be worth more than $4,000,000, and Don. J. C. Abreu. Two of the lads are grandsons of Don F. Abreu, while the other three are regis- tered as T. R. and M. Rooes, whose par- ents are dead, but who are being cared for by wealthy relatives. The boys will all be sent to a preparatory school at first and then it is planned to enter them in the University of California. Lieutenant George E. Gibson of the Grant and has been ordered to the Pre- sidio to be examined by Colonel Girard. Lieutenant Gibson received a severe wound In the Philippines on July 22 while participating in a vitched baftle on a steep hill between companies from the Twenty-second and _Thirty-fourth In- fantry and a band of 500 or more Filipinos.

It has been no easy matter get- ting the system well started, but he thinks the worst of the obstacles have now been overcome. Mr. Anderson went direct from the Grant to Oakland. Georgs M.

Experiments in France have showed that chimney soot is valuable, both as a | tertilizer and as an insecticide. Its fer- | tilizing properties are particularly noted |in gardens and meadows. M. Dasserre, a wine grower in Southern France, avers that “chimney soot kills the phylloxera with the rapidity of a stroke of lightning, and at the same time endows the vines with extraordinary energy of growth.” Other experimenters. however, have not | found it effective in the case of phylioxera, although it kills many kinds of larvae.
