Acock’s defense will be that Stanford is not an officer of the law. This means that Vallejo's charter {s to be attacked. e witnesses heard to-day differed as to whether Stanford drew his pistol be- fore or after having been struck by Acock. Most of them were of the opinion that Stanford was attacked before draw- ing his weapon. The case was continued until Thursday for argument. Acock will also answer on that date to the second charge of resisting an officer. il B s Artists’ Materials.
