Appé&l Is Made to Supreme «Court to Compel a New Hearing. AR A remarkable case was argued before the Supreme Court in bank yesterday, when the attorneys appearing for George Aldrich asked that Judge Troutt of the Superior Court be compelled to pass upon the mental standing of their client, who many years ago was adjudged insane, but Wwho has enjoyed the freedom accorded to ordinary people for the last ten years and is to all appearances in full possession of his mental faculties. Aldrich’s parents were Hawallans and related to the famous Queen Lilioykalanl. His father acquired a large fortune in the management of various sugar interests and at his death devided. his property equally among the children. George Ald-| rich was at the time considered insane by his father, and his share of the prop- perty was-placed under the trusteeship of | his brothers and sisters. ¥ | In 1888 Aldrich was adjudged insane by Judge Hamilton of Alameda and com-! | mitted to the Napa Insane Asylum. Hs escaped from the asylum and was brought back, only to escape again. Since then | he has been living in various sections of freedom. An effort to establish his sanity was made once before and the examining physicians reported favorably, but Ald- rich in a sudden fit of anxiety wrote to the Judge, offering a large amount of money for the desired decision, and the case fell through. , The applicant has $150.000 in his own | right and a strong desire to gpend it, but | at present he recefves only such an amount as seems best to his relatives, Judge Troutt, in a previous hearing of the case, decided that he had no jurisdic- tion in the matter, and suggested a writ | of habeas corpus. 'As no one has posse: sion of the person of the prisoner, how= ever, there is no foundation for such pro- ceedings. In this dilemma Aldrich’s at-| torneys, Woodworth & Spotswood, re- quested’ a writ of mandate to compel Judge Troutt to hear and pass upon the case. The court ordered the case present- ed on briefs within ten days. Attorney Spotswood, who is also guard- ian of Aldrich, says that his client is sane anc has the testimony of prominent phy- sicians to that effect. Aldrich lives at a fashionable hotel and moves in good so- ciety, but under the law he cannot vote, | marry or manage his property. His ef- forts to be adjudged sane meet with the! bitterest oppesition by his relatives. | RETAILERS MAKE READY FOR THEIR GREAT DAY | Many Déalers to Close Their Storas | for the Grocers’ Day Cele- i bration.

DUDLEY DUBOSE 10 60 10 JAL Court of Appeals Holds Former Jurist Guilty of Contempt. Judge Noyes and District At- torney Wood Also May Be Punished. ot g AL Alexander McKenzie, ex-receiver in the Cape Nome mining cases, will have com- pany in the Alameda County Jail in the person of ex-Judge Dudley Dubose as soon as the United States Marshal is able to,lay his hands upon the person of that dignified gentleman. Circuit Court of Appeals vesterday ad- judged Judge Dubose guilty of contempt and sentenced him to be imprisoned for six months in the Alameda County Jail. Nothing can be done in the way of ar- resting the Judge, who is now at Cape Nome, until navigation opens next month, when steps will be taken to apprehend him and bring him to this city en route to the Alameda jail. There is a probability also that several other distinguished gentlemen will occu- py cells in the Alameda jail for the same offense if the cour thinks well of a sug- gestion made yesterday in court by At- torney JE. S. Pillsbury. Mr. Pillsbury called the attention of Circuit Judges Gil- bert, Ross and Morrow to the fact that others were equally guilty with Judge Du- bose, namely, United States District Judge Noyes, Thomas J. Geary, Lawyer Hume and United States District Attor- ney Wood of Alaska. Mr. | Pillsbury suggested that the testi- mony taken in the contempt cases showed that Judge Noyes of the District Court of Alaska had issued an injunction aftes the writ of supersedeas had been issued by the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, thereby violating the writ, and that inasmuch as the court had found Judge Dubose guilty of advising Comp- tois, Mr. Geary was also equally gullty and so was Mr. Hume. United States Attorney Wood had the keys to the vault containing the gold dust, the subject of the writ, and refused to give them up, which refusal compelled the United States Marshal to break the locks foreibly., Mr. Pillsbury said that he did not desire to make any motion; he simply suggested that this condition of affairs existed, and the court took the matter under advise- ment. 3 The opinion of the court in the case of the contempt of Judge Dubose was writ- ten by Judge Morrow. The following are extracts dealing with the salient points: It is charged in this case that Dudley Du- | bose Esq., one of the attorneys for the ap- pelles, O." Jose Comptois, on the 15th day of Decemper, 1900, at Cage Nome, Alasia, advised the sald Comptois to Uisobey and to refuse to comply with a certain order and writ of su- persedeas issued out of this court on the 25th day of August, 1900, by direction of one of its Judges. Gist of the Opinion. This is one of several cases wherein Arthur H. Noyes, District Judge for the district of Alaska, Second Divislon, appointed Alexander McKenzle receiver to take charge of and man- age, mine and work certain plac clafms on Anvil Creek In the Cape ing district. * * * The testimony in support of the charge of contempt shows that the respondent declamj that he advised his clients not to obey th writs of the Circuit Court of Appeals and that he would continue to give that advice. * * * These writs were all disobeyed by Recefver McKenzie and the plaintiffs in all the cases appear to have acted in concert in supporting his disobedience; in other words, it is appar- ent that there was a general harmony of pur- pose on the part of the plaintiffs in all the cases wherein McKenzle was appointed re- celver to resist the authority of the Circuit Court of Appeals in granting appeals and awarding writs of supersedeas, * * ¢ There can be no question as to the right of an attorney to advise his client as to the va- lidity of an order of court or of a writ issued under its authority, where such an order or writ affects the client's interests; and if, after investigation, it Is the attorney’s honest belief that such order or writ is illegal and®oid his advice to that effect will not render him liable or an error of judgment. But an attorney cannot go beyond the right to advise, and, actuated by a spirit of reslstance, conspire with his client, or with others, to disobey an order of court, obstruct the due administration of the laws and bring the authority of a court of justice Into contempt. Point in Dubose’s, Favor. There is but one conclusion to be drawn from and that is that the ap- pointment of a receiver to work and mine the placer claim owned by the defendant was the beginning and the end of the cause of action. It is to be sald in favor of the respondent, however, and_in mitigation of his punishment, that the testimony shows that when the dep: uty marshals arrived at Nome on October 15 1900, to execute the writ of supersedeas the respondent expressed himself as regretting that he had misapprehended and misconstrued the writ, and he thereupon advised obedience to its’ requirements. This fact will be given its full weight in the judgment of the court.. * * It is, therefore, considered and adjudged that the respondent did commit contempt of this court as charged, and for the contempt so com- mitted it is now ordered and adjudged that he, the said Dudley Dubose, be imprisoned in the County Jail of Alameda Coynty, California, for the period of six months. The Marshal wili execute this judgment. FOUR MORPHINE GRAINS END A SOLDIER'S LIFE George W. Rohr of the Hospital Corps Winds Up a Spree With Poison. George W. Rohr, a private in the United States army hospital corps, committed suicide last Sunday night by taking four grains of morphine. Rohr had been on duty on the transport Warren, and on last Thursday had been assigned to duty at Fort McDowell. Since that time he has been on a spree and roomed in a lodging-house at 210 East street. On Sunday afterncon Rohr went to the Ferry drugstore and represented that he ‘wanted some morphine for some patients on board the transport. The clerk sold him the drug, and at 7:30 o'clock yester- day morning Rohr was found dead in bed. The partly filled vial of morphine shows that he had consumed four grains, two envelopes he had written: “My papers are on the Warren, stateroom 14, also all my baggage and papers. My fiaper!v All my papers and property goes Mrs. George Rohr, Flora, Oregon.” Coroner Leland notified the Chief of Po- lice that the drug clerk had violated the law by selling morphine without the pre- scription of a physician.

Kinyoun, late quarantine of- ficer at the port of San Francisco, will be | allowed to “depart for the East without | being chased by police officers and other sleuths, the charge of assault to commit | murder preferred by Joseph de Wolfe | having been dismissed yesterday in the court of Justice Rodden at San Rafael. The complainant charged that Kinyoun | had fired a number of shots at him, last November, while he (De Wolfe) was)sail- | ing in the vicinity of.the home for bu- | bonic plague microbes maintained by Kinyoun at Angel Island. Constable George Agnew attempted to arrest Kinyoun on Sunday last, but the | doctor refused to leave Angel Island, | and warned Agnew that he was trespass- | ing on Federal ground and would get into | trouble if he did not go away. This con- versation was held over the telephone running from the wharf at Angel Island | to the doctor's house. | Hearing that Kinyoun intended to leave | for the East to-night, Agnew sent word | to the Police Department in San,Fran- | cisco to arrest him. The doctor, tHinking | discretion the better part of valor, start- ed out yesterday morning to face the | music and took the boat to Tiburon, in- | tending to give himself up. At Tiburon | ferry, Constable Agnew made Kinyoun | his prisoner, despite the protest of the | doctor. “I am a government official,” said Kin- youn, ‘“‘and you have no power to touch me. I defy vou to put me under arrest.” ““Qh, that's all right,” replied Constable | Agnew, ‘“but you are not on your cwn ground now, and bluffs don’t go here. I have a warrant for your arrest, and I propose to take you to San Rafael and produce you in court.” The Constable meant business, and the | ‘When | “man of microbes”” had to submit. the party reached San Rafael, Justice ‘Rodden was sitting in court. Kinyoun was arrajgned and entered a plea of “not guilty,” and the evidence was then taken. | De Wolfe, the complainant, is a deaf- mute, and he gave his evidence in the sign language. He told how he had been fired at a number of times while safling near the quarantine ground last Novem- ber, but could not identify Kinyoun as the man who fired the shots. Sergeant Jordan, of the regular army, testified that he was stationed at Angel | Island last November, and that on the | day mentioned by De Wolfe a prisoner had escaped from the military prison. Guards were sent out to search for the escaped soldier, and at dusk a man was seen working from the shore in a small boat. Failing to stop when called upon, the sergeant had given orders to fire, but fortunately the men missed their mark. De Wolfe got away from the bullets, and the escaped soldier was captured shortly afterward. Kinyoun at this point, beaming with satisfaction, asked for a dismissal, and De Wolfe consenting, Justice Rodden set the ex-quarantine officer at liberty. OFFICER CONSTITUTES HIMSELF A JUDGE John P. Herlihy Does Not Serve War- rants Because a Case Is “Fixed.” Two well-dressed men, one a prominent resident of Spokane, went to the Maison Alladio, corner of Geary street and Grant avenue, Sunday afternoon with two ladies. They had a ‘“‘high old time” opening wine and eating the choicest viands. The ladies left the place toward midnight, but the two men remained there all night and had breakfast {eslerday morning. When they were Jeaving the waiter asked them to gay their bill of $42 90, but they said they ad no money. They were locked up in a room and C. Jacomi, the proprietor, hur- ried to the Hall of Justice and swore out warrants for their arrest on the charge of defrauding an innkeeper. The warrants were given to Policeman John P. Herlihy to serve and he accom- panied Jacomi to the restaurant. The pckane man sent a note to a friend, who sent back $40 and Jacomi accepted the amovnt in full payment and told the offi- cer he would not prosecute the men. and they were allowed to go. For constituting himself a judge Herlihy was called before Chief Sullivan and was_ordered to send him a written report. He will probably have to appear before the Police Commis- | sloners for not performing his duty by arresting the men.
