ALAMEDA, Oct. 9.—Manslaughter s the charge that Policeman George MacRae, who shot Myron Brown, will have to an- swer before the Superior Court, Justice of the Peace Morris rendered a decision this afternoon in which he stated that he felt it his duty to bind MacRae over. The decision came in the nature of a surprise to the policeman, as he fully expected to be released. Justice Morris’ decision consisted of a review of a large part of MacRae's testi- mony. He introduced his remarks by say- ing that he did not consider the evidence sutficient to suppert a murder charge. Justice Morris said: The men MacRae attempted to arrest were guilty at most of a misdemeanor, and to shoot them was doing somethin; in excess of authority. To establish sel defense it would have to be proved that Brown and his companions. were commit- ting a felony at the time of the shooting." Justice Morris held that MacRae couid hever have run a block between the wheels of the buggy without falling down. In corcluding his decision the Justice said: ““The evidence shows beyond doubt that the defendant arrested these young men for a misdemeanor and that they got away from him, and in order to stop them he did shoot at them and killed Brown. He said he had visions and didn't know where he was at. “It is well settled that a police officer cannot shoot a person fleelng from an ar- rest for the commission of a misdemeanor. I feel it is my duty to refer the matter to the Superior Court that a jury should pass upon this question. “It appearing to me that the offense of manslaughter has been committed and that there is sufficient cause to believe the defendant gullty thereof, I order that he o held to answer and committed to the Sheritt of the county of Alameda and thag he be admitted to bail in the sum of 5000, ‘MacRae had no_trouble securing the necessary bail and was immediately re- leased. MacRae’'s mother and the mother and sister of Myron Brown were present in the courtroom when Justice Morris read his decision SOUTHLAND.

Back of the suit is a tale of alienated affections. Some time ago Pause and his wife resided upon a ranch near here, the property of Pause, which he, on his wife's solicitation, transferred to her. Later J. Franck apneared upon the scene, was smittenn with Mrs. Pause's charms and. it is said, wrote a letter to Pause offering him $10,000 for his wife, signing it ‘“yours respectfully.” Pause declined, but it appears from his allegations that the proposition was not Altogether disagreeable to Mrs. Pause, for she transferred her effects to the home of Franck and also took with her a gun and pistol belonging to her husband, for which latter offense she is charged with petty larceny.

ERKELEY, Oct. 9.—Willlam Olson, +} the 12-year-old schoolboy who was arrested yesterday for dis- turbing the peace of E. E. Nich- ols, principal of the Lorin school. was arraigned before Justice Robert Ed- gar to-day. The little fellow pleaded not gullty and his hearing was continued until Wednesday, November 7. The causes of the arrest were these: After dlsmissing school Mr. Nichols start- ed to catch a car. As he ran up the street the Olson lad shouted jeeringly at him. Nichols says he is not positive what was said, but the boy declares he '!'houted, “Nichols, Nichols, old fat pickles.” How- ever that may be, Mr. Nlcholsmdld not ne, and as it was in the pres- ‘e‘rll(cee“o,f‘ ;A‘l)! pupils he thought it best to make an example of the boy.

It is probably “his first offense; but as an ex- ample for the others I felt that it was my duty not to let the matter pass.

The result of his trial will depend principally on his behavior be- tween now then. He has a reputation of being an unusualiy bright boy.
