They were charged with many murders of innocent and defenseless natives. The relations between them and the American cavalry at one time grew so strained that trouble was momentarily expected. The Amerl- cans pablicly denounced thelr acts.” Butler Practiced No Fraud, SAN DIEGO, Deec. T.—The Superior Court here to-day decided the long-con- tested Butler-Hartupee mine case in favor of the defendant, Butler, Two years ago Dr. Butier traded a gold mining property in the Grapevine district to Hartupee for Cleveland, Ohio, property valued at $17,000. Later Hartupee alleged that the mine had not that value and that fraud had been used, and suit was brought to obtain a re- conveyance of the property. The court decided that no fraud had been used and refused to order a reconveyance. LRI B Wanted in Napa for Forgery. NAPA, Dec. 7.—Harry C.

Sanborn, Vail & Co., 741 Market st. * BOY UNFOLDG SIGHT WAECKAGE SOME SECRETS CHICAGO, Dec. 7.—A number of wit- nesses, whose evidence was wanted to show that ex-Bailiff James J. Lynch was often in the office of Alexander Sullivan when the latter was attorney for the West Chicago Street Railway Company, occu- pied the stand in the Sullivan conspiracy case to-day. Emory Warne, Edward Turner, P. H. Maroney an. Robert Hill, all formerly connected with the Trn"unn Company’s legal department, and F. Rich- clson, formerly in the city law depart- ment, testified. Hill, who was an office boy for Sullivan, was sprung as a surprise on the defense late yesterday. He said that he had car- ried letters from Sullivan to Lynch and that he had brought verbal communica- tions for Lynch to meet Sulllvan. He had seen Lynch and Attorney St. John in Sullivan’s office many times—as often as twice and thrice a week. On cross-exam- ination the defense brought out the fact that letters were delivered in the open courtroom of Judge Clifford, where Lynch acted as balliff. Assistant State's Attor- ney Barnes asked: y"\{’gu didn’t wave them in the alr, did “No,” Hill answered. “I slipped them to him quletly. The testimony of Warne, Turner, roney and Richelson supported I-lill' story that Lynch called often on Sullivan. The defense on cross-examination brought out assertions that.there seemed to be nothing suspicious about the meetings. Maroney stated that he had often seen Dan Coughlin in Sullivan’s office also. John Gordon, husband of Josephine Gor- don, was a witness and told of forwardin; to Lynch in New York, under the name of Conners, money which he received lrom Dennis Ryan, the custodian of a of 34500, which had been provided (Ifl' tha support of Lynch during his exile, He was followed by his wife, Josephine, the last witness of the day, who corroborated Lynch's narrative wherein it concerned her, and told of conversations she had had with 8t.

Long of San Francisco. PR Special Dispatch to The Call VANCOUVER, B. C., Dec. 7.—According to news brought to-day from the north by the steamship New England some small vessel recently met disaster in the waters off Queen Charlotte Islands. On Wednes- day afternoon, when the New England was steaming southward past Banks Isl- and, a lot of wreckage was seen floating on the water. Some of it was picked up and was found to consist of the front frame of a small ship’s locker. The frame was made of rock elm and had three ?enlnn for drawers. The men who ked up the wreckage saw a portion of a curved taffrall, several white-painted boards, apparently belonging to a schoon- er's bulwarks, and a lot more broken and splintered wood. No pleces bearing any lettering could be discovered. All the flotsam was in such a state of preserva- tion that 1t is not considered probabls that it had been in the water any length of t It m ‘believed hete that the Amnnun schooner Ralph J. Long from Unalaska, November 9, for Seattle, may have got into trouble during the recent gales and that the wreckage sighted may have come from her, as she would have been in that vicinity about the beginning of the week. No other small craft is known to be in northern waters. Judging from the slze of the flotsam it did not come from a large vessel. The schooner Ralph J. Long should have arrived in Seattle long ago, but she stranded at Unalaska and for a time it was believed a United States revenue cut- ter would be dispatched to rescue her pas- sengers, who were reported penniless and starving. Just as the cutter McCulloch was about to sail northward from San Franclsco, word was received from Un- alaska that the Long had sailed south- ward on November 9, fully provisioned. The Ralph J. Long was a single-deck schooner of ninety tons. She was bullt in 1888 at Bandon, OT., and was owned by A. Frank of San Francisco, her home port.

The men under arrest are: James Page, Fred Grant, William Cole, Frank Cole and Harris Williams. - Union Miners Join Hands: NANAIMO, B. C., Dec. 7.—The miners of Nanaimo, Exterfsion and Alexandria to-day decided at a mass meeting held here to affiliate their unions. The Exten- ston and Alexandria collleries are worked by the Dunsmuir Company, and as Pre- mier Dunsmulr has declared that he will shut them down sooner than recognize the federation a strike may result. The reso- lution was carried by a large majority after an exciting meeting. Long Electric Power Line. SPOKANE, Dec. 7.—The Washington ‘Water and Power Company, owner of the falls of the Spokane, has started a survey for a line to carry electric power from this city to the Coeur d’Alene sllver-lead mines in Northern Idaho. President Richards says the power plant here will be doubled and he expects power will be delivered at the mines by July 1903. It will be the longest electric power line in the world, with one exception, being about 100 miles in length. (L A R Suesser Taken to San Quentin.

MURDER CAUSES SECOND TRAGEDY Grief of Victim's Widow Deprives Her of Reason. ——— Mrs. Delia Rader Will Pass Her Remaining Days in an Asylum. Speclal Dispatch to The Call. REDDING, Dec. was to-day for the s ted to the Napa Ins 13 now 50 years old it is quite probable | that she will end her days thcre, and this | seems to be the finale of un unusual fam- | fly tragedy that had its opening chapter five years ago. John Rader was a goat and sheep raiser of the Bald Hills scction, near Gas Point. He and his neighbor, David Mau- in, quarreled over pasture lands. As der drew rein one day in the midst of his children David Maupin shot him dead from his saddle. Clay Taylor made a famous plea in court for Maupin and he was acquitted. Mrs. Rader's mind gave way over griel for her husband and she was taken from her four sons and daughter and sent to the Napa Asylum. After a year she grew -u-onger and was_discharged. For sev- Years Mrs. Rader has been living Sith Telatives in Trinity County cently she came back to the old flmlly scenes at Gas Point.

Ra- der, having given up hope, brought his mother to town and she was recommitted to the asylum. Delia Rader commit- sybum. As she ATTORNEYS ARGUE OVER SCHOOL BOARD AFFAIRS Method of Procedure and Stats Law Bones of Contention in Zim- merman Case. The case of William Zimmerman, Ger- man teacher at the Polytechnlc High School, who applied for an injunction re- straining the Board of Education from trying him on charges preferred against him by Principal W. N. Bush, was sub- mitted yesterday for decision by Judge Murasky. Attorney Stephen V. Costello appeared on behalf of the teacher and Assistant City Attorney Brobeck defended the board. Brobeck insisted that the Board of Ed- ucation had absolute control of the teach- ers in the School Department by virtue of powers conferred on it by the laws of the State, which the charter could not override. He called the court’s attention to the number of writs issued by the courts, and declared that they greatly hampered the board in. the discharge of its duties. Attorney Costello, who contends that charges must be preterred by the Super- intendent of Schools, sald that “while there was no doubt that the State law invested the board with the power to in- vestigate charges there was nothing in the statutes providing ang method of pro- cedure. The charter rovided a method,” said Mr. L‘ostello “and by so doing has not abridged in any way the powers of the board.” Brobeck then said: “‘Supposing the Su- erintendent refuses to prefer charges, hen the board Is powerless to act, ac- cording to your argument.” ‘“The Superintendent will do his duty, I suppose,” retorted Costello; *“‘at least the law presumes so.” e e A WELL-ENOWN PRESSMAN BURIED AS A PAUPER Henry Karstens, Formerly of the Virginia Chronicle and Stock- ton Mail, Dies Unnoticed. A representative of the Eagle Soclety, a fraternal order of liquor dealers, called at the Morgue yesterday to claim the body of Henry Karstens, who was found last Saturday lying on the sidewalk at the intersecticn of Third and Howard streets, and who died of pneumonia short- ly afterward. The dilatory Eagle was in- formed that Karstens had been burled by the city undertaker, no one having come forward to claim his remains. Kar- stens was well known in Virginia City, Nev., and in Stockton, Cal. He was a pressman in 1878 on the Virginia Chronicle and on the Stockton Malil in the early eighties. About three years ago he won a prize in a lottery and opened a saloon on Third street, between Mission and Steven- son, afterward removing to the basement on the northwest corner of Howard and Third streets. — ee——— Suits for Divorce Filed.

SHIP A WITNESS BACK T0 CHINA Friends of Alleged Mon~ golian Murderer Active. Sacramento County’s District Attorney to File Sensa- tional Affidavit. Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, Dee. 7.—A sensational afdavit in the case Ng Yet, charged with the murder of Chew Jew, and lw.m.ngb_ trial in the Superior Court, has been pre- pared and sworn to by District Attorney Baker and will be presented to the court when the case is called on Monday morn- ing. District Attorney Baker alleges that a Chinese named Young Sam, an im- portant witness for the prosecution, has been paid 3300 by persons imterested in clearing the accused, and shipped to China in order that his da.muin{h testi- mony will not be avallable when the c is_tried. It will be further alleged that friends of the defendant have paid to the relatives of the murdered man 3500, as balm for their grief and an inducement not to be too clamorous for the conviction of the accused. The District Attorney will ask for a reasonable continuance of the case to enable him to obtain other evidence, but as the testimony of Young is regarded as the most important bearing on the case, it appears that the ecrafty Chinese have won a victory over the groucullng officers by spiriting Young am out of the country. MAKING APPRAISEMENT OF ST. MARY'S SQUARE Representatives of Improvement As- sociation Confer With Board of Works. Representatives of the St Mary's I Square Association appeared before the Board of Public Works yesterday regard- ing the appraisement of the lands de- sired to be acquired for a park. The Board of Works was recently directed by the Board of Supervisors to estimate the value of the lands which are bounded by Pine, California, St. Mary’s and Dupont streets. F. S. Shadburne, president of the asso- clation, argued that the lands could be bou;ht by condemnation for $125,000, the amount proposed to be incorporated in the bond issue. After considerable dis- cussion the three members of the Board of Works and the representatives of the association adjourned to visit the prop- erty under consideration. e To Test an Ordinance. John Nolan Sr., who has livery stables at 1611 California street, is to test the validity of the ordinance which imposes a tax of $4 per month upon proprietors of such stables. With that object in view C. F. Knerr, deputy Tax Collector, swore to a complaint in Judge Mogan's court yesterday for Nolan's arrest on the charge of refusing to pay the tax. When he called upon Nolan he was told that the Merchants' Assoclation had advised him not to pay the tax and he proposed to test the validity of the ordinanece. —— gty Small Loss by Fire.
