F called the attention of the Judge to the fact that there was pending in the United States Circuit Court of Appeals a writ of or baged upon the contention that the dgment In the first and second cases should run concurrently. | It was argued further that the sentence in the second case—that of failing to de- 3 $1300 to the credit of the Govern- which sum Dimmick had#eceived- imposed during the term of court g that in which the first ser pronounced, and that therefore id ' pursued the ingenious Mr. ( if Dimmick goes to the penitentix t sentence and the Court Appeals decides in his favor it of supersede; uld one be i 1! be violated b the sentences in both cases run cor ntly.” The point was raised also that in cases where a prisoner convicted of misdemeanor and felony | he mus his term of impriconment for the fel before he can be cailed upon to serve for the misdemeano was Judge de Haven remarked that wvas L e e e e o o e S e e WELDING AN ON NOLAN EANE Nolan, Bernard Whitelaw, John Davis and Docia Nolan on the charge of rob- bery at the residence of Mrs. Ida Tuttle, 543 Haight street, on the afternoon of March 4, when Mrs. F. V. Mathews, Mrs. Tuttle’s mother, was so brutally beaten h the butt end of a revolver, was cor tinued before Police Judge Cabaniss ye: terday afternoon. The courtroom was crowded, as usual, and a large number of the gentler sex crowded and crushed with the sterner se: to get a good seat before the proceedings commenced. It was a morbid crowd of old and young that drank in every word of the witnesses and counsel. Ruby Grills, whose direct examination was concluded on Saturday, was subjec | ed to a cross-examination of two hours by Attorney Archie Campbell, who repre- sents the three male defendants, and she became so. fatigued ‘that her cross-exam- ination by foyfher Gevernor Budd on be- half of Docia Nolan was postponed till this afternocn. The girl adhered to her | story implicating the female deferdant in the conspiracy, and was not in any way confused by the innumerable ques- tions addressed to her by defendauts’ counsel. Lawrence Waterbury, a boy living at | Waller street, identified an overcoat ! which he found in the front yard of father's residence on the afternoon of the robbery, which the prosecution claims was thrown into the yard by Davis while running away from the scene of the crime. Frank BSlade, a florist at 500 Haight street, testified that for about an hour before the .robbery he saw three men standing in front of his:store. He posi- tively identified Nélan as one of the men, | but could not swear as to the identity of ‘Whitelaw and Davis, although he said both men were shorter than Nolan, which to this extent answers the deseription of ‘Whitelaw and Davis.

United States District Attorney Wood- th said It was the desire of the prose- cution not to have any further delay in the matter. Mr. Collins then asked the court for a day or two of delay to afford Dimmick an opportunity of arranging his private af- fairs, but Judge de Haven replied dryly that the prisoner had had ample time to | arrange his affairs and ordered that the | sentence be executed immediately. After the adjournment of the court Mr. Collins into the office of the United | States M and asked Marshal Shine to delay ing out the court's order for a few hours, but the Marshal refused to delay for even a few seconds in exe- cuting the peremptory order of the court.

This sudden change on the part of Un- derhill can be easily traced to the friend- Ship that exists between himself and President Harriman of the Southern Pa- cific Company. When the Harriman party came to ‘the .coast Underhill was one of the party. He met Harriman at | Santa Barbara and before the party ar- | rived in San Franclsco he entertained them lavishly at his beautiful place at | Santa Barbara. When Harriman went st rumor was rife that he had slated | Underhill-for;a soft-place. ‘What Underhill's duties are in the of- | fice of the steamship company are not generally known, he ‘Has mot the distine- tion of a title, but he Is voted a popular acquisition to the force of clerks. Last week he made himself doubly popular by taking all the members of the office, in- cluding the little office boy, to a costly dinner at Marchand's."

On the accasion of Mr. Underhill's drive a Chicago milllonaire mistook him for an ordinary coachman and ordered him to ‘“'stop,” “drive faster” and so forth In, such an authoritative way that Mr. Un- | derhill handed over the reins to the guard ; llnfl returned to the Palace on a street- car. | experfence, much to the ON CGABLE CAR Daring Act of Thieves in | Front of Palace i Hotel Follow Rich Planter and Re-| lieve Him of Coin and Papers. e i A 6 A daring robbery, which has few com- parisons in the annals of local crime, committed in front of the Palace Hotel last night and at an hour when Market street was crowded with pedestrians. Two thieves boldly entered an eastbound street car, held up a passenger and robbed him of his wallet, containing currency in the sum of $278, a letter of credit for £250 and | other papers. They made their escape be- fore their victim had recovered from his surprise or Before he could call to his us- sistance the conductor, who happened to be on the front of the car talking to the gripman. Later the passenger reported his loss to the chief of the detective force, but h was unable to furnish any means of iden. | Ufying his assailants, thus insuring their | safety from arrest. The vietim of the robbery is Augus Tenge, a planter from the West Indies | and a man of means, who is en route to his, former home in Germany. Tenge is a middle-aged man who arrived here on April 9 and has since been a guest of lh?) Palace Hotel. He paid his bill at the ho- | tel vesterday, intending to go to the | Yosemite Valley on the eveiiing traln and | was on his way to the ferry when he was | attacked and robbed. | FOLLOW VICTIM INTO CAR. | Shortly after 7 o'clock last evening | | Tenge, who had been loitering about the | hotel court for some time, awaiting the | | hour of departure, gathered together his | valise, overcoat and umbrella and walled | out on to Market street and hatled the first’ car that passed the big hostelry. The | gripman stopped his car and Tenge got aboard, little heeding the fact that one man | | preceded and another followed him Inside. Hardly had the car resumed its trip to- ward the ferries before Tenge, who was about to take a seat, ifelt his arms grabbed from behind and before he real- ized that he was in the hands of daring thieves his coat was torn open and a sec- | ond later he felt his pocketbook, contain- | ing $278, being removed. In the act of taking a seat he had stoop- ed over a bit, and it is evident that the two men who entered the car with him took advantage of this move and held his head down so that he could not look into their faces. Unfortunately for Tenge there were no other passengers on the car when he boarded it. The conductor was out in front with the gripman. After the thieves had made their escape Tenge summoned the conductor and related his astonishment of the former, who apparently had not wit- nessed the occurrence inside a moment be- fore. The conductor advised Tenge to immediately report the matter to police headgquarters, and he did so, but with- out any satisfactory results, for he was unable to assist the officers with any- thing like a clew to the identity of the | men. | WATCHED HIM PAY BILL. | Later Tenge returned to the Palace, where he unable to ire a room, and then went ov to the Grand It is believed that the men who robbed Tenge had been at the Palace during the afternoon looking for prey and saw him | at the cashier's window with his mone, wallet when he was paying his bill. They then kept a close watch on him and, fol lowing him from the hotel, found th opportunity to rob him when he entered the empty car. ‘They took me unaware: sald traveler last night to a Call reporter. was badly handlcapped by reason of fact that in one hand 1 carried my va- lise and umbrella asd on the arm of the other I had my heavy top coat. By hold- ing my head down they also had an ad-| vantage and no difficulty was experienced by the robbers in reaching my pocket- | book. As soon as one man grabbed me the other at once felt over the outside of m coat to make certain of the exact location of my money and then put his hand insilde and extracted the book. I had no chance to the men and it would be utterly impossible for me to recognize them.' | It has been knqwn for some time that the town was infésted with \thieves who prey upon the guests of hotels, and the managers of the latter have taken every possible precaution to keep the criminals | ut of their establishments. | It is, however, hard to distinguish a well dressed thief and frequently they avoid the notice of the hote! watchmen and fall upon their prey before the latter | can be given a warning. | ol 1 the | th Royal Worcester Corsets, swyle 446, at T8e. | Chester F.

United States Owns Center of Island, but Has No Way to Reach It. g Word was received hers vesterday that the United States Supreme Court had handed down a declision confirming the decision of the United States Circuit | Court as to the ownership of the sub- merged and reclaimed Jands in San Fran- cisco Bay, surrounding Mission Rock. The decision leaves the title to the lands In question to the California Drydock Com- pany. The property in question is one of the most valuable pleces of bay property de- tached from the mainland. Originally it consisted of two barren rocks lying a few hundred yards off shore about midway between the Pacific Mail dock and Po- trero Point. In 1§70 this projection was old to one H. B. Tichenor by the State | Legislature and in 1872 the purchaser re- eived a patent from the State to 14.30 imed land surrounding the ock. Subsequently this property passed | y purchase to the California Drydock ‘ompany, whose title has just been con- firmed. When William C. Whitney was Secre- ry or the Navy under Cleveland the Government cast longing eves upon the rock and determined to obtain possession of it for a coaling station. An option was secured from the drydock company to purchase at $250,000, but during the pen- dency of the negotiations some of the le- gal sharps In the Attorney General's de- partment came to the conclusion that the | United States was entitled to the owner- | ship of the rock and all he surrounding | lands, and that the grant of the State of California amounted to nothing. Accordingly sult was instituted b.\" United States District Attorney Frank L. Coombs on September §, 1899, under in- struction from the Attorney General to oust the California Drydock Company from the lands. The case was heard by | United States District Judge Beatty of Idaho. who decided that not only the rock but the surrounding reclaimed lands belonged to the Government. This deci- sion was appealed from by the drydock company. which had expended about $300,- 000 in filling in the land and erecting warehouses. On the rehearing the United States Circuit Court of Appeals reversed | Judge Beatty in so far as the reclaimed and submerged lands were concerned. It held that while the title to the rocks was in the General Government the State had a right to dispose of the submerged lands BLOOD HUMOURS $kin Humours, Scalp Humours, = _ Hair Humours, Whether Simple Scrofuloes ot Hereditary Speadlly Cured by Cuticwra Soap, Ointment and Pils.

Even the most obstinate of constitutional hu- mours, such as bad blood, scrofula, iu- herited and contaglons humours, with loss of hair, grandular swellings, ulcer« ous patches in the throat and mouth, sore eyes, copper-coioured blotches, as well as boils, carbuncies, scurvy, sties, ulcers and sores arising from an im- ure or impoverished condition of the tood, yield to the Cuticura Treatment, when all other remedies fail./ And greater still, if possible, is the ‘wonderful record of cures of torturing. disfiguring humours among infants and chiidren. The suffering which Cuticura Remedies have allevisted among the young. and the comfort they have af- forded worn-out and worried parents, have led to their adoption in countless homes as priceless curatives for the skin and blood. Infantile and birth ha- mours, milk crust, scalled head, eczema, rashes and every form of itching, scaly, imply skin and scalp humours, with oss of hair, of infancy and childhood, are speedily, permanently and economi- cally cured when all other remedies sultable for children, and even the best physicians, fail.
