Special Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, April 28.—The Santa Fe Raliroad will not'comply with the recent ruling of the Interstate Commerce Com- | mission, in the Los Angeles citrus fruit | case, in which it was held that the prac- I'tice of the Santa Fe and Southern Pa- | cific_ raliroads of taking into their own | hands the matter of selecting the route | by which fruit shipments from Southern | California to the East should be sent was | illegal. The Santa Fe will ignore ' the ruling, unless counsel for the railroad shall advise contrary to the expectations | of President E. P. Ripley. The president | of the Santa Fe, who arrived in Los An- | geles to-day from Santa Barbara, spoke | with. marked earnestness. “Our course in regard to the ruling of the Interstate Commerce Commision in the citrus fruit case will depend on what the lawyers advise,” said Mr. Ripley this evening. “I do not expect we will comply with the ruling, but we will let the courts decide whether we are right or if the fruit shippers are_right. I ao not think the ruling of thé commission is equitabl The rallroads are the responsible parties when we guarantee to take the fruit to its destination and do so, our manner of doing 80 is not the business of any one. 1f we want we have the right to deliver the fruit on wheelbarrows. T’he railroads make a rate of $1 25 a hundred on citrus fruit to Chicago and the same rate to New York. In order to make this rate ‘we must have satisfactory arrangements with our connections East. “We cannot comply with this ruling and continue to handle the fruit business. Be- fore the railroads adopted the system of routing shipments the business was in a constant state of demoralization. Shippers were in the habit of sending their fruit over any road whose overzealous agents would give them a few dollars rebate on each car, and we must either cut rates to meet that sort of competition or give up handling the business, ifiwe do not take B Couting into.our own ands."

Zabala, MOTHER VICTIN OF 30N°S RAGE Young Desperado -Mor- tally Wounds Aged Parent. Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. SALINAS, April 25.—Because she tried to prevent him doing murder, Frank Cas- tro attacked his mother with a knife at an early hour this morning, inflicting a wound that is- likely to prove fatal. The tragedy occurred at the Castro home, in Santa Rita. The would-be matricide made his escape and is still at large, with a number of officers on his trail. *Castro attended a dance in Santa Rita last night. He imbibed too much liquor and became intoxicated and quarrelsome. During the night he had trouble with several men. At an early hour this morn- ing he appeared at his home and got his shotgun, telling his aged mother that he intended to kill the men with whom he had quarreled. Knowing that bhe would keep his word, the old lady, after vainly appealing to him to put away the wea- pon, attemptad to wrest it from him. Suddenly Castro whipped out a knife and slashed his mother across the shoulder and right side. Then, shoulder- ing his shotgun, he disappeared and has not since been seen. Physicians who were summoned to care for the woman an- nounced that the wound is a deep one and there is slight chance for the recov- erx of the victim. Mrs. Castro is 68 years old, and the infirmities of age ‘combine with the shock of the wound to make her desperado condition precarious. Feeling against the youn, runs high, and many of LEe residents have Jjoined the county officials in his pursuit.* Castro has borne a bad reputa- tion, and, when drinking, was especially quarrelsome. Gold at Cape Scott. VICTORIA, B. C., April 28,—The steam- er Queen City, which returned from the west coast this morning, brought news of the discovery of gold at Cape Scott, at the northwest of Vancouver Island. —_—————— The Best Fountain Pens.

LORD SUFFIELD SUES FOR LIBEL Claims Damages for Ar- ticles Published by Labouchere. —_——— LONDON, April 28.—More interest than usually attaches to libel sults against Henry Labouchere was exhibited at the trial of a case in the King’s Bench di- vision of the High Court of Justice to- day, in which Lord Suffield was the plaintiff. Lord Suffield, who is perma- nent lord in waliting to the King, clalmed damages for articles published in Labou- chere’s paper, Truth, one article alleg- ing that a club, of which Lord Sutiield was president, was “an fmpudent and transparent humbug,” and that the coun- cil of the club and others connected with the scheme were a line of figureheads on the front page of city prospectuses ‘‘for the purpose of decoys, and by means of which smaller people were lured into a snare.” Counsel for Lord Suffield pointed out that Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal, the Canadian High Commissioner, was president of the club in 1887, while tne couneil of the club, when Labouchere wrote his strictures, included Choate, the United States Embassador; Cardinal Vaughan, Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal, Lord Charles Beresford and sim-. ilar celebrities. One of Truth's accusa- tions was that Lord Suffield was “know.. ln’fly president of a swindle.” 'he defense admitted the publication and declared that the statements and facts contained in the articles were true and that the comment was fair.

Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, April 28.—H. E. Miller creat- ed a sensation at the meeting of the City Council this evening by preferring charges against Fire and Police Commis- sioner Andrew Mackenzie, whom he ac- cused of using his position for political and personal ends. Other members of the commission were accused, although they were not named, and Harbor Commis- sioner John D. Mackenzie, brother of An- drew Mackenzie, is charged with having received, in the rooms of the California Club, some of the money wrongfully ae- quired by the Commissioners. The Coun- cil was ‘asked to remove Commissioner Mackenzie from office. Miller charged that Andrew J. Macken- zie. together with other members of the Police and Fire Commission, during the past two years, and particularly during March, April and May, 1909, collected from the salaries of certain members of the Police and Fire Department sums rang- ing from $12 to $70. This money, it was alleged, subsequently,passed to the chief of the Fire Department, who took it tb the California Club and paid it over to John D. Mackenzie, a brother of Andrew Mackenzle. FREE THEATER TICKETS. The second charge was that Mackenzie and his colleagues on the commission have levled blackmail upon Charles P. Hall, manager of the Victory Theater, in the shape of theater tickets. Miller al- leges that Mackenzie and W. J. Oster- man, president of the commission, afier causing many petty annoyances, suggest- ed to Hall that the theater would not be molested if the commission were fur- nished with free tickets. Each Commis- sioner received two tickets, but this was increased to thirty tickets a performance, worth from $15 to John D. Mackenzie also was accused of receiving free tickets. Charge three involved the levying of blackmail upon gambling houses. Twen- ty-five dollars per month was collected from each house under promise of im- munity, it was alleged, and in some months the collection amounted to $400. Frank Cheek, the proprietor of a saloon, was named as the person who collected the money and carried it to the California Club, where it afterward went to John D. Mackenzie. As a fourth charge, Andrew Mackenzie was accused of causing all the repair | work of the Police and Fire Department to be done at the San Jose Foundry, of which he is part owner. COUNCIL SCORES MILLER. The Council refused to accept the charges, because they were not sworn to, and Miller would not swear to them in the Council chamber. The Councilmen de- nounced the charges as a political move and declared that Miller was being used as a catspaw. The Council, after a re- cess, adopted resolutions declaring that Miller was an erratic and irresponsible persons and had been made a tool of by a certain newspaper so that the charges could be published without fear of prose- cution for libel. It condemned such a course. The resolutions further stated that the Council believed the charges were malicious and without foundation, but that if they were sworn to and presented by a responsible person the Council would inyestigate them. Miller is the ex-student of the Normal School who has had 8o much trouble over his diploma, and was the author of the article in the Los Angeles Times styling San Jose “The Sodom of the Pacific.” Of late he has been conducting a semi-week- ly paper called The Crucible. Plea of Kansas Millers.
