From the cool manner in which his work was done and the methad he used, the officers feel positive that one man is | responsible for both robberies.

The demurrer of the city was sustained | yesterday by United States Circult Judge Morrow in the suit of Nicholas Bowden, as executor of the last will of Laura G. Delaney, deceased; Mary A. McCurrie, Peter P. Wynants, Samuel W. Holladay, Nathaniel Jacobs, Edmund Burke Holla- day, James D. Whitney, Fred J. Castle- hun and Frank R. Whitcomb against the and County of San Francisco, and the case was dismissed. The suit was brought to quiet title to Lafayette ‘scuare. On March 3 of this year Franklin K. Lane, as City Attorney, filed a demurrer to the amended bill, al- leging that the complainants had no title to the ground, that there was a misjoinder of partles and that the case was not one in equity. This litigation, in some form,. or rather in several forms, has been pend- ing in various courts for a score of years, and no sooner is one suit killed than an- other pops up its head. The complainants will take an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States. —_————————— MISSION TURN VEREIN INSTALLS NEW OFFICERS Predident Tells of ‘P_r;greu the As- sociation Has Made in Term Just Ended.

Sold by Newsdealers. * was nearing the summit of Brim Moun- tain and the driver was narrating the in- cidents of the first holdup, when all on board were startled by the loud com- mand: “Hold up your team and every passen- ger get out and stand here in a line, and hurry up about it."” At the same time a masked man stepped into view from a clump of bushes. His rifle was leveled at the stage. The pas- sengers climbed out and at the bandit's direction lined up on the roadside. Then they were commanded to lay their money | in the middle of the road in a pile. When they had complied the road agent ordered them back into the stage and told the driver to move on, adding that he intend- ed to camp at that spot until dark and would shoot the first person who attempt- ed to come back to give the alarm. One of the women, Mrs. Helms of Up- per Lake, had $550. The highwayman asked her why she was going to Bartlett with only that amount of money. On her replying that she lived at Upper Laka, he gave it back to her, remarking that she could get along with it there. Driver Willlams hurried his team to the — stage station a few miles farther on, from where a horseman was hurried by a trail to Leesville. Sheriff Sherer was no- tifled and with a posse immediately left for the scene of the holdup. He was not long in finding the trail, which led down the mountain grade toward the valley. The robber did not molest the mallbags or Wells, Fargo & Co.’s box and only se- cured about $200 in money from the t teen passengers. He said he did not want the watches or jewelry—that he was out for cash only. The robber was of me- dium size, with light hair and blue eyes. The description tallies exactly with that of the bandit of last year, and the officers susp#et an ex-convict named Lemos, a Portuguese about 27 years of age, for whose arrest there is now a standing re- ward of $600. Driver Williams, who is now with the Sherift’s posse, had a former experience | with stage robbers and only a few years ago In Napa County he was with Con- gressman Bell and a party when they surrounded Bandit Buck English. It was a bullet from Williams® rifle that brought English to earth and caused his capture, Williams was also wounded in the fight. ADVERTISEMENTS.

Dunsmuir refused to answer any questions as to the amount of stock held by his brother, as to whether the witness now controlled it or whether | he had in his possession documents which | would reveal this. Further examination was therefore deferred by Mr. Duff. | The refusal of Dunsmuir to answer | these questions and the objection of the | trial Judge to having the case further de- layed caused Mr. Bodwell, counsel for the plaintiff, to intimate tnat he was serious- ly considering whether or not to put in any evidence. Finally an adjournment was taken until to-morrow, swhen the ac- tion will probably proceed. Dunsmuir, the defendant, has been ordered to answer the interrogatories regarding the value of the estates and business involved in the action. In connection with the trial an appli- cation was made for the purpose of com- pelling Dunsmuir to produce documents dealing with the alleged payment of $5000 to the firm of Wilson & Wilson of San Francisco, which, it was urged, was done for the purpose, not of probating the will, but of inducing Mrs. Alexander Dunsmuir to enter into an agreement with James Dunsmuir, which she did. Mrs. Dunsmuir, by the agreement, was entitled not only to $25,000 a year, but to half of the profits from any business in- terests which her late husband had in the State of California. The Judge held that | the check for the $5000 should be produced. ————————— Sues Market-Street Railway. Nicholas C.
