Judge Melvin Allows Alleged Forged Salary Warrant to Be Placed on Record of the Trial. — The proceedings yesterday in the trial of Peter McGlade, ex-bookkeeper In the of- fice of Superintendent of Streets, were devoted to legal arguments between the attorneys for the prosecution and the de- fense as to the sdmission in evidence of the “John Sullivan” salary warrant, which McGlade is alieged to have forged. The jury was granted a vacation anl after hearing the arguments of counsel the day closed with a victory for the prosecution by the decision of Judge Me'- vin to allow the disputed document to be filed as evidence in the case. The objection of Attorney Lennon, for the defense, as to the admission of the alleged forged dccument was of vitdl in- terest. If the document had been denied admission to the record the result would | have been that Expert Kytka and his elaborate display of enlarged specimens of handwriting would Lave bcen thrown out of court and the case for the people would have fallen to the ground. Attor- ney Lennon’s much vauntel claim that the ‘“‘corpus delicti” haa not been proved would have held good ard McGlade wousd have gone forth a free man. Attorneys Fear Court’s Displeasure Judge Melvin's threat of Tuesday that he would punish the opposing counsel for breach of court rules had its effect yes terday. Attorney Lennon was as mild as a lamb and neither Disirict Attorney By- | ington nor Assistant Eugene Deuprey “mixed” in their oratorical displays. Judge Melvin Kept an eye on the counsel and, despite a few pardonable infractions of the order, the lawyers did not offend the dignity of the court. | writing expert, was called to the witness stand when court convened in the morn- | ing. Before Kytka Pad a chance to ex- plain_his exhibits Attorney Lennon start- ed off on a long argument. He tried 1c¢ Lead off Kytka's proposed testimony by arguing that the “John Sulli- van” salary warrant was not a subject of forgery in that it did not comply with the law in its compositicn. The attorney | for the defense sought to prove his con- tention_ by producing various resolutions of the Board of Supervisors and the con- solidation act and pending the arrival of the same Kytka was mlowed to explain his enlarged specimens of handwriting. When Kytka started in to_explain the photographic exhibit on his 15-foot screen some of the jurors took & hand in the pro- ceedings. The expert persisted in saying | ““This is taken from the salary warrant | forged by Peter MeGlade,” or *“This i3 from the books of the office and in the writing of McGlade.* scored a point by having the testimony thus presented stricken from the record Some of the jurors wanted to know why the “salary warrant” so frequently mer - tioned was not In evidence and also {f <ytk: s employed by prosccution anc Kytka w | defense. : replied that the questions were improper. Expert Kytka Talks at Length. Kytka was Instructed to exvlain his screen and for an hour the expert tcld how he had taken specimens of writing from the books of the Superintendent ol Streets and enlarged them by his photo- graphic process, the same being done with the writing on the alleged forged salary warrant. . While Kytka was in the midst of his ex- lanation Clerk McGinnis of the Board of upervisors arrived with the documents desired by Attorney Lennon. ~McGinnis was placed on the stand and testifled as to certain resolutions of the Board of Su- pervisors and the consolidation act, which e proGuced. These documents were placed in evidence by the defense. At the request of the defense John Sulli- van, the hodcarrier, was recalled to the stand and testified that he had never lived at 3036 Twenty-second street at any time. Lennon sought to prove by the witness that he was not the “John Sullivan” de- scribed in the “salary warrant’” and that his testimony previously given was of no value in that he had sworn that he had never indorsed the alleged forged war- rant. Lennon Makes Long Argument. Lennon then started in to display his forensic ability. He argued that the “John Sullivan™ salary warrant was fille- gal on its face and that McGlade could not be charged with forging an illegal document. he grounds of Lennon's ar- gument were that the warrant did nnt comply with the law and that if the City Auditor had known his business he would not have been deceived by such a docu- ment. He argued that the warrant ought to have given In detail the work it repre- sented to have been done and that it was not sworn to before a duly authorized per- scn to administer an oath. Lennon talked until the hour of the noon recess. When court convened for the afternoon | the jury was excused until this morning, pending the arguments of the attorneys as to admission in evidence of the “John Sullivan™ salary warrant. Deuprey Argues for Prosecution. Assistant District Attorney Deuprey made a lengthy argument opposing the contentions of counsel for the defense and cited decisions to show that the prosecu- tion had fully proved that the "John Sul- livan'' salary’ warrant should be allowed in evidence. Counsel for the people quoted decisions to show that a paper which on its face bore the purport for which it was issued was sufficient proof of intent and calculation to defraud if the party utter- ing Itl knew that it was a fraudulent docu- ment. Attorney Deuprey argued that the Penal Code provided that if any person wrote and uttered a paper calculated to defraud, that person was guilty of forgery. Many other decisions were quoted by Deuprey to prove his side of the case. ‘Attorney Lennon made an argument in reply on the same lines he had followed out in the morning. Judge Melvin Gives Decision. Judge Melvin, when the arguments were closed, gave his decision. e sald that, though the laws in qther States were con- fiicting on the subject, the law in Cali- fornia was perfectly clear. The Judge read a number of decisions showing that the *“Johin Sullivan” salary warrant came within the statute of forgery and said: “There may be certain irregularities and informalities in this salary warrant, but I will rule that it be allowed in evidence in this case.” A rumor gained currency yesterday in the Hall of Justice that two of the jurors trying McGlade were friendly to the de- fendant and that they would hold out for a disagreement when the jury retired to consider its verdict. The matter was openly boasted of In the halls of the building. ADA L. HALSTEAD, THE AUTHOR, DIES SUDDENLY Found in Her Apartments in a Statz of Collapse and Passes Away. Mrs. Laura Eugenia Newhall, known to the iiterary world as Ada L. Halstead, dled sudcenly yesterday afternoon In her apartments at 984 Sutter street. Dr. Laid- law, who resides in the adjoining flat, heard means coming from Mrs. Newhall's rooms at 2 o'clock in the aftérnoon and found Ler in a state of collapse, and she expired a short time thereafter. No pol- son was found in the place, and the indl- cations are that death was due to natural causes. Mrs, Newhall was Laura E. Terry. On July 31, 1884, she was married in this city lh)?' Rev.

PRETAE oA Standard Company Making Exper- iment That Will Have Interesting Results—Rates for Trans- portation Discussed., e The present week s fraught with inter- est to the ofl producers of California. On Saturday next the Standard Oil Company will apen bids for supplying 25,000 barrels of ofl. Bidders dre given the option to furnish the entire quantity of 25000 bar- rels or ary part of the same. The seem- ing purpose of this option is to get as many bids as possible and so determine what the ofl producers will sell their prod- uet for. What effect this move will have on the price of ol is a question which is concerning the trade generally. Much de- pends on the producers, who are invited to compete practically without regard to quantity, in naming a price at which they will sell. According to very good author- ity, the Kern River district alone, which 1S now the largest producer in the praduc- ing section of the State, can pump 15,000 barrels per day with the present wells working to their full capacity. The Ba- kerstield Californian, which is near the field, makes these figures and adds tha not one-fifth of that amount is being mar- keted now “and not a few companies are reservoiring their oil, pending the time when a market is opened.” Superi:tendent Miller of the Standard Oil makes the statement that the offer of the company to buy 25,000 barrels is purely experimental and that the result will de- termine the future course of the company. What will the producers sell their oil for under such conditions? There has not been a more interesting question asked in California since fhe oil industry as-| sumed such large proportions. The Transportation Matter. Coincldentally comes the report of a com- mittee to the California Petroleum ers’ Association, which deals in stati to some extent. It oil producers of Kittrick find serious fault because they have to pay the same rates for moving_their ofl to Bakersfield that they pay to San Francisco, while the | Kern River district producers complain that it costs them more to deliver their oil in San Franeisco than it does the Mc- | Kittrick producers. The discussion of the rate problem is of general interest. The committee says in part: The charge should be uniform, irrespective of the length of haul, for the reason that the production of crude ofl in this come @ great industry, and when considering a rule of action or the measure of rates to be charged, the fact of encouraging an industry rather than destroying it should be taken into consideration. If rates are made favorable to one locality they necessarily must be unfavor- | able to another, and we who are at present producing ofl_in’ the Sunset, McKittrick, Coal- inga and Kern River districts would cer- | tainky feel injured if new oil discoveries wera made say, for instance, in the neighborhood of | Mount Diablo, and the producers be enabled to railroad their ofl into San Francisco at such rates, based on distance, as would shut out oll produced in the districts narped. If the rate {s uniform, no new discovery, no matter how near the point of consumption, could bar the oil produced in localities more remote. The actual cost of transportation of a car car- rying from 150 to 175 barrels of oil is, when loaded, 3 cents per mile per car. In view of the fact that the grade from our California oil flelds to San Francisco is down grade, it is reasonable to suppose that the cost here is less than the 3 cents per mile above mentioned But taking that as the actual cost to the rall- road companies, then the cost of transporting a car of ofl from Bakersfleld to San Franeisco, a distance of 312 miles, would be $9 36; and allowing the same rate In returning the empty car the total cost would be, from point of shipment destination and return, whereas the charges now are from $63 to $i3 o per car, according to the number of barrels carried. The committee recommends a rate of 25 cents per barrel, irrespective of the dis- | tance to San Francisco, following: ‘When oll was first discovered it was selling at $2 50 per barrel, and the freight charge was from G2 cents to € cer 25 per cent of the selling price of the ‘oil. When the price of oil fell to $2 and $2 10 per barrel, the rail- and quotes the road of its own accord reduced the transporta- tion charges to 2 cents yer barrel. When the vas reduced to S 60 or $1 70 per transportation rate went to 42 cents per barrel, at which it has since been | maintained, notwithstanding the price of o1l has greatly fallen. It will be seen that the raflroad charges have been always in the nelghborhood of 25 per cent of the seiling price of the ofl, and the present rate should be re- duced accordingly. The freight rate, with oil at the present | price, is a matter of great importance to | the producers. Work in the Field. There are now about 50,00 acres filed | upon for ofl in the Mojave desert. It is reported that a trace of ofl has been found on the desert, about twenty miles west from Barstow, in San Bernardino County. ets forth that the | State has be- | ADVERTISEMENTS.

So famous a remedy as Peruna could not have well escaped the attention of so the remedy, but he has used it and was relieved of an affliction of twenty-five years’ standing. Peruna is the one inter- nal remedy that cures chronic catarrh. It cures catarrh wherever located. This is a fact that the people are rapidly finding out, but there are still a large multitude who need to know it. Mr. Frank Richter of Winona, Minn., says in a letter to The Peruna Medicine Company: “As a remedy for catarrh I take pleas- ure in recommending Peruna for catarrh of the stomach. I know what it is to be Mucn excitement is reported to exist in Chico on account of the discovery of an | oil seepage about six miles north of the | town on O. L. Clark’s ranch. The oll was first seen by a farmer, and it was floating on a creek. The discoverer traced it up | and found where the oil was oozing from | the grourd. H Drilling for ofl_has begun on a tract of 10,400 acres near Vacaville. The Vacaville Reporter says that State Mineralogist | Cooper looked the land over and found | that there was gas escaping from several | places, but he would not hazard an opin- | fon concerning the probability of finding | ofl In paying quantities. Another opinion was secured. After some delays the ma- chinery was bought and work is under way. Development work in the vicinity of Gil- roy, says the Gilroy Gazette. is extremely active. Before the end of May there will be thirty-two derricks in operation. About 4000 acres of the Dunmne ranch have been leased to a company for a term of ten years. The lands are taken on a royvalty and the agreement is that drilling must begin within ninety day Passing of Yellowstone Park. Tt is said that the geysers which have made this park famous are gradually —declining. This brings to mind the fact that decline is the law of the world.

Peruna cured me, and I know it will cure any one else who suffers from this dis- ease. It gives me great pleasure to testify to the curative effects of this medicine. Peruna is_a well tested and frequently used remedy, and for catarrh of the stom- ach it is unsurpassed. “My catarrh was principally located in my head and stomach. 1 tried many rem- edles without success. I tried several doc- tors but they were unable to cure me. I read of Peruna in the papers. and flve bottles cured me.”—Frank Richter. The gastric juice is secreted by the mu- cous follicles of the stomach. When this julce is normal it digests (dissolves) the food without producing any disturbance whatever. If, however, the gastric juice is not normal, digestion causes agreeable symptoms. This condition is known as indigestion. Peruna will cure this. any dis- | Sufferers in the United States. . BOTLIN, CONGRESSMAN-AT-LARGE FROM KANSAS, In a recent letter to Dr. Hartman, Congressman Botkin of Winfleld, Kans., whose fame is a national one, says of Peruna: My Dear Doctor—It gives me pleasure to certify to the excellent curative qualities of your medicines—Peruna and Manalin. | afflicted more or less for a quarter of a century with catarrh of the stomach A residence in Washington has increased thess troubles.
