MADERA, Sept. 22.—The case of Rob- erts vs. the Fresno Democrat Publishing Company was called in the Superior Court here to-day. This action is brought against the newspaper by Dick Roberts, on account of an alleged libel published in the Democrat about the beginning of this year. Plaintiff considers that his reputation was injured to the extent or $75,000. At that time it was said that burglars had broken into the homes of Roberts and Sheriff Thurman. Young Roberts’ gun and hat ‘were found in the home of the Sheriff after an unknown had made his escape. The theory advanced in all the stories that were sent out from Ma- dera at the time was that the outlaw haa first entered the Roberts’ home and stolen the articles which he left in the Thur- man residence. Some days after the Democrat sent @ man to Madera and a'story followea which inferred very strongly that Rob- erts had himself carried that gun and hat into the Thurman residence. On this story Roberts bases his suit for dam- Juges. To-day was spent in securing a ury. ————————— EXECUTORS PREPARING TO HAVE WILL CONSTRUED Trust Created by Late James Camp- beil Will Be Tested in the y Courts, HONOLULU, Sept. 16.—Attorney Joseph J.

T VICTINS SUFFER SEVERELY Mrs. De Saisset of Ban Jose in a Dangerous Condition. i e SR Chauffsur Says Accident Was Due to “Buckling” in Mechaniem. Epecial Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, Sept. 22.—That no one was killed outright in last night's automobile | accident seems to be a-miracle. The big machine turned three complete somer- saults down the twenty-foot embank-| ment and had thrown its occupants out before it struck the ground & tangled This probably spared the lives of the party. All of the injured opes are improved to- day with the exception of Mrs. de Sals-| set, who is dangerously hurt, perhaps fatally. She is at the Red Cross Sani- tarium and was operated on to-day. Mrs: Col, who at first was not belleved to have recelved more than a severe shock and fright, had her collarbone broken. She bore up bravely until after her husband and son were attended to, when an examination showed she was badly hurt. Louls Col, the 14-year-old boy, is pain-| fully hurt about the head and neck. Mrs. Col and her son were both about their | home to-day, but showed plainly the marks of the accident. P. A. Col is con- fined to his bed. His left arm is broken in two places and he is hurt about the head. The bone protruded through the flesh of the arm. | Peter de Saisset is the only one besides the chauffeur who is able to be on the street. His shoulder is wrenched and he is bruised some. | Corless, the chauffeur, declares the ac- cldent was due to a “buckling” of the steering gear under the machine. He ad- mits he was making between twenty and thirty miles an hour. —— e ——— OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST Changes Are Made in the Postal | Service and Numerous Patents i Are Granted. !

Chambers, a local min- ing operator, who was formerly general vice president and a director of the Great Western Company, in which Chambers 1s accused of having “received and converted to his own use in the ca- pacities aforesaid the sum of at least $40,- 0. The company goes on in its complaint and recites several mining deals in which Chambers is accused of having fraudu- lently obtained large sums of money. Notable among these was the deal con- cerning the Afterthought copper proper- ty in this county. The company claims it had Chambers go from here to Salt Lake City to secure an option on the Aiterthought in a sum not to exceed $150,000; that he *entered into a conspiracy with W. F. Snyder and one Mitchell,” by the conditions of which Snyder took the title to the Afterthought in the sum of $%0,000, gave an option to the Great Western at $150,000 and when the company made the first payment of $20,000, Snyder paid $10,000 to the owners of the Afterthought and $10,000 was divid- ed among Snyder, Mitchell and Chambers. Several other alleged irregular trans- actions are charged against Chambers. The suit attracts much attention here and probably will have the same result in Salt Lake City, where Snyder is at the head of the Western Exploration Com- pany, a prominent mining concern. Chambers says there is no ground for the suit, which he declares to be brought for blackmail. —_—————— MANAGER IS INJURED BY TERRIFIC EXPLOSION Water Company Official Is Hurled Thirty Feet and Perhaps Fatally Hurt. SAN BERNARDINO, Sept. 22—D. H. Coe, manager of the Riverside Water Company’s plant at South Colton, was terribly injured after midnight by the ex. plosion of a 400-gallon tank of distillate. That he was not instantly Kkilled is re- | garded as a miracle, and even yet there is a chance of his injuries terminating fatally. Last evening the directors visited the property and were figuring out the prob- able expense of running the plant for the next quarter. Coe was directed to meas- ‘ure the distillate, and taking a lantern he set it at the edge of the tank and raised the manhole. He was leaning for- ‘ward extending a measuring rod into the tank, and his face was directly over the manhole when the explosion occurred. He was picked up bodily and tossed fully thirty feet. For over half an hour he lay unconscious. Electricity Kills a Fireman. VENTURA, Sept. 22.—Thomas Dunni- gan, fireman of the wrecking crew at the Southern Pacific Chatsworth tunnel was killed by electricity to-day.

Dunnigan was standing in water and was in the act of moving the lights. In doing so he carelessly caught hold of the copper wire. He re- ceived 1000 volts. ————— BOSTON, Sept. 22.—John Bruce McPherson of Gettysburg, Pa., was to-day elected secre- tary of the National Association of Wool Man- ufacturers. ing the past few weeks she extracted.
