Special Dispatch to The Call. EL PABO, Texas, Feb. 14.-“Count” Ru- dolph de Lucenay, who eloped from Cali- fornia with Ruby Luckhardt and married her here, was arraigned in the District Court this afternoon on the charge of big- amy. After considerable wrangling on the part of the attorneys the case went to trial and at nightfall eleven jurors had been obtained. The courtroom was packed and the in- terest manifested was intense. Ruby Luckhardt and the “Count” were brought face to face for the first time since their separation, and Frank Luckhardt, Ruby’s brother, created a sensation in tRe court- room by objecting violently to the girl re- tiring to the ante-chamber with the “Count” and his lawyers for consultation, A few days ago the girl requested to be permitted to visit the *““Count” at the jail. Her brother, upon learning this, almost went into hysterics and created a scene. He locked Ruby in her room and declared to friends that if the girl saw the *“Count” she would make disclosures that would ruin her brother. To-day in the courtroom Burns and Cobb, counsel for the defense, asked per- mission to consult with the girl apart and her brother be prevented from intim- g her. A scene of intensity followed.

Special Dispatch to The Call. CLOVERDALE, Feb. 14.—For the tehth time in that number of years Cloverdale, the “citrus city of the north,” is a bee- | hive of activity, preparatory to the open- | ing of the annual citrus fair. Judging from present indications this year's fair will surpass any heretofore held in this city. Heaps of golden fruit piled here and there about the immense pavilion are as. surance that the quantity and quality of fruit to be exhibfted will be greater and better than ever before. The association has made satisfactory arrangements with the raflroad company for the accommo- dation of the crowds. The rates will be cheap and the train service convenient. The board of directors of the fair has offered a long list of prizes to be com- peted for. As no prize will be awarded for any design that has heretofore been exhibited in the hall this year's fair will present an entire change of features. One of the exhibits will be an old. fashioned flourmill, with {its ancient waterwheel, overgrown with moss, with oranges and lemons tucked in here and there and all daintily fringed with five- | inger ferns and smilax. The old mill | has nearly outlived its usefulness, but the wheel still runs, though the grinding has long since ceased. he water gate has broken down and the water leaks through. Down at the farther end of the hall and directly opposite the mill will be the old Cloverdale flourmill in miniature, with its overshot waterwheel. This will be a reproduction of one of the marks of California. Another unique exhibit will be a “drag- on spring” about six feet in diameter and occupying the center of the hall. The ‘water will spout up to a height of three or four feet above the basin and fall into three bowls, each surmounted by a dragon. One novel idea will be an airship float- ing above the rest of the exhibits and sug- gesting to one the prospective mode of travel in years to come. A reproduction of the anchor of the Walla Walla will be shown. All of the best designers who have exhibited here- tofore are preparing exhibits for this vear, which is a guarantee of a fine dfs- play of art as well as of good fruit. Alaska Mine-Owners Organize. TACOMA, Feb. 14—Mine-owners of Southeastern Alaska, representing 1500 claims, have organized the Alaska Mine- owners’ Association in Juneau.

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 14.—All doubt as to the intentions of the Rock Island re- garding a future invasion of Southern Pa- cific territory on the Pacific Coast are set at rest by a telegram that was re- cefved here this morning from the gen- eral offices in Chicago. This telegram instructs the local office to prepare for a daily service, to be established on March 1, between Chicago and Los Angeles, via the new Rock Island line to El Paso and the Southern Pacific to Los Angeles, When the extension from Liberal, Kan., was completed to El Paso there was talk of the ultimate extepsion of the line to the coast over one of the numerous sur- veys made across New Mexico and Ari- zona. It was then announced that the Rock Island would not extend its sphere of operations farther west than El Paso, and that an agreement had been reached whereby the Southern Pacific and the Rock Tsland would not interfere in one another's plans. If such an agreement was made it was a very, one-sided one, as the announcement made by the Rock Island indicates. Heretofore passengers for Chicago from Los Angeles were compelled to go via the Santa Fe or Southern Pacific, and, if an- other route were desired, a change of cars was necessary at some- terminal in the Middle West.” Under the new order pas- ers may enter the Rock Island cars in this city, from and after March 3, and, without change, reach Chicago in -less than three days, as the Rock Island is nearly 230 miles shorter than any other road. The telegram was a complete surprise, in view of the supposed agreement, and indicates that the Vanderbilts are deter- mined to build up a business on the coast that will sooner or later justify the ex- tension of theftrack to the Pacific, despite all agreements and arrangements to the contrary. Will of W. G. Nevin. LOS ANGELES, Feb. 14.—The will of the late W. G. Nevin, general manager of the Santa Fe lines in California, was admitted to probate to-day! The estate, consisting of money, stocks, bonds, reai estate and personal roperty, is valued at between $150,000 and $200,000.

Aol il el @ LEGAL CLASH oMES THE MEN Persons in Hawaii Ac- cused of Murder May Escape. HONOLULU, H. T., Feb. 7.—The dif- ferences between Judge Gear of the First Circuit Court and Attorney General Dole as to the methods of proceeding against “transition period prisoners” resulted in a remarkable court proceeding, gluring Which twelve murder indictments were disposed of in an hour last Wednesday afternoon. Dole asked that the cases be continued, as he claimed that they were dependent upon a decision in the Osaki- Mankichi case at Washington. Gear refused to grant a continuance. There were several ‘bitter courtroom passages between _the Attgrney General and the Judge. Gear held that as the indictments had been brought and the defendants demanded a trial, he could not postpone the matter, while Dole argued that as the defend- ants had been convicted before, whether the conviction was legal or not, and the question of the legality of the convietion was pending in the United States Su- preme Court, a continuance should be granted. When Gear finally refused a continu- ance and ordered the cases tried, le withdrew from the courtroom and re- fused to take any part in the cases at all. The result was that four acknowi- edged murderers were brought to trial With no prosecution and no evidence be- ing furnished against them. The - jury in each case was.instructed to return a verdict of not guilty. The police prompt- ly rearrested the men as they were set free, however, and are holding them un- der, the old convictions, It Washington sustains the Attorney General’s position that majority jury ver- ere valld in Hawall after ahnexa- Hon, and that trials without grand jury Indictments were also valid, the prisoners will have to serve the terms given them, lOatjl;lleel;wil;e.mig Vlew‘gf the acquittals ob. e “ i they will ohe,one-sided ““trials” just had Attorney’ General Dole file a protest and a statement of his po. sitlon, but Judge Gear refused to allow either to be filed, declaring that no sueh pleadings as a protest o statement had ever ‘been heard of.

Judge Harrington Rejoices Because ‘he F.nale Is in Sight. ALTURAS, Feb. 14.—Both sides in the Lookout lynching trial rested to-day, and arguments will commence.. to-mOrTow. Several days will be spent in’ argument. The main effort of the prosecution to- day was directed toward proving the dis- tance from Miller’s ranch to Lookout by way of Hall's ranch to contradict the Kresge alibi; the height of a window in the office of Leventon Bros.’ blacksmith shop, and the good character of Robert Courtwright, one of the principal wit- tion was attacked by the defense. Ira Cannon, Jury; Mahlon Cannon and Peter Hager- man declared Courtwright's reputation was good. John Depp said he had heard Courtwright eriticized, but why he had been subjected’ -to criticism was not brought out. ira Cannon testified that a easily see what was going on in Leven- ton's shop yard. Mahlon Cannon testi- fled substantially as his brother. He said that the Miller ranch was twelve miles from Leokout by the way of Hall's ranch. The defense introduced testimony to | show that Jerve Kresge stopped at Mil- | ler’s ranch on the night of the lynching, | and it was impossible for him.to have | been in Lookout on that night. -Witnesses | for the defense testified that the distance | by the most direct route from Miller's | ranch to Lookout was nineteen miles. | Peter Hagerman testified that Lookout | was twelve miles from Miller's via Hall's | by the way of a cut-off. Raker objected | to the testimony of the Cannons and Ha- german, asking that it be ruled out on the ground that it was irrelevant, but the objection was not sustained by the court. ust before the adjournment Post, for the prosecution, announced that the peo- ple rested their case. Some time was taken up by the counsel on both sides discussing the . instructions in the case, and it was finally agreed that the instruc- tions be submitted to Judge Harrington t. He will look them oVer and they will be discussea briefly to- morrow morning in the absencé of the Jury before arguments commence. Many bitter things were sald by coungel on both sides during the morning session, and the court several times censused the attorneys for the defense. On dismissing the jury for the day he sald that he thanked God that the crisis in the case wasd approaching. ¥ An adjournment for the day was taken to permit officers of the court and the ‘counsel to attend the funeral of the moth- er of Clerk Smith, who died on Wednes- day night. — Fine Home for San-Jose Elks, SAN JOSE, Eeb. 14—San Jose Lodge of Elks is to have an elegant new héme at the cornér of Lllghutor'\ l;‘nd Santa Clara streets.

SEATTLE, Feb. M.—News of the | arowning of an Indian chief and his two | sons within sight of the chief's squaw and daughters is reported from Killisnoo. Mrs. C. E. Van Huebner, who writes to the Douglas News under date of January 2 says that the natives of Killisnoo and | Angoon are in mourning over the fate of the sachem. The Indians at Angoon had long been preparing for a reception to the Taku |and Sitka Indians. Flag poles had been erected and flags raisea in front of all a g | the houses. At night lights are strung jup. On January 15 the Indian lookout noticed a light coming toward the village and believed a party of wvisiting natives | was coming, so the village Indians com- menced to beat their tomtoms and sing and dance in welcome. Their joy was soon turned to mourning and the singing to wailing. In the canoe was the widow and two daughters of Adam Ah-Yau- He and his two son: were thrown from the cance not mo than ten miles from the village and all three were drowned. The chief and his family were return- ing from a summer cabin twenty miles distant. | They were within ten miles of Angoon when darkness fell and they camped on the beach. At 1 o’clock in the morning the wind began to blow furious- ly and the boyse went to look after the canoe. Chief Adam awoke and decided to_anchor the craft away from the shore. While trying to fix it where it would be safe, Mrs. Van Huebner says, a large wave capsized the canoe and all three men were thrown into the water. None of them succeeded in reaching shore. he squaw was a cripple and her daughters were unable to do anything, so the three women lived as best they could on the barren and uninviting beach for the next seven days, until another canoe happened along, when they were rescued, more dead than alive, and taken t> An- goon, Adam Ah-Yau-Ka was the chief of the Wash-Kee-Nas tribe. Three of his broth- ers live at Killisnoo. Elks to Lay the Cornerstone.
