38 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALIL, SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1903. JURY WILL TRY LAWYER JONES Sk Will Have to Answer a Charge of Stealing Mooney Money. W L Heirs of the Looted Estate Determine to Punish the Attcrney. — Hu Jones, the well known attorney, is to be brought to the bar of ju on a charge of embesziing the funds of the estate of the hael Mooney. Yesterday Cornelius Mooney, brother of the deceased, applied for a warrant for the arrest of Jones, but the Police Judges declined to issue it for the reason that they were not cer- tain as to whether one is necessary in & case of the character in which the attorney is inv d, but the applicant was given assurance that some step would be taken on Monday to put Jones behind the bars. The threatened arrest of Jones grows out of his theft of the funds, amounting to about $14,000, of the estate of Michael Mooney while he was acting as attorney for the execu- trix. He secured an order from court permitting the executrix to with- draw the money from several banks for the P se of depositing it together in anoth Instead of carrying out the order of the court, Jones, with a power of ‘attornev of the executrix, withdrew the money and, it is claimed, used it for his own purpose. When h‘= sappropriation of mone; s discovered he disappeared from the city. After an absence of sev- wa eral months he returned to the city a few weeks ago and has since been at- »ugh friends to make some ement with the Mooneys. promises to Con en out his difficul- to keep them.

It was introduced as qvidence to convict [Thomas Killeagan of the crime of petty larceny. The hearing was of such importance that W. W. Foote appeared as speclal prosecutor and R. P. Troy was for the defense. Among the witnesses was Mrs. Clara Curtis, portly and impressive in ap- | pearance, who testified that as a solic- | itor for the Interstate Mercantile Com- | pany she had come into the possession of the rainbow decoction of carpet manufacture from the far shores of Turkey by the help and aid of Kil- leagan. There is & civil suit pending {in which the defendant claims he. lIs a partner in the concern on Post street, where Oriental rugs are dis- played In profusion for the benefit of people who like to divorce themselves from their money to posses mixtures of that cheracter. The hearing was con- | tinued until to-morrow. Aoy ' Judge Fritz wrestled with two mur- ! der cases yesterday. One charge was against George T. Querbock, who is ac- | cused of kicking Annie Wilson to death | at her residence at § Capp street. The { autopsy surgeon reported that the woman died from fatty degeneration of the heart. The Police Department sur- mised she had been kicked to death. The Coroner’s jury found an equivocal verdict that may be offset by the ad- missions of the defendant which he made to the arresting officers. The case ! went over for a week, but as the result | of the original testimony in the case it is a doubtful question whether or not the defendant, who has practically ad- mitted his guilt, avill ever have to an- swer for his crime. PRI Joseph Feld, the policeman who shot and killed his father-in-law, appeared in Judge Fritz's court yesterday. He is charged with murder. The arresting officers showed the defendant the pro- fessiopal courtesy of allowing him to git in a char of the courtroom, but . Judge Fritz promptly vetoed any such consideration. “The defendant |is charged with murder,” he sald, “and will be locked up in the dock. A po- liceman charged with crime is no bet- | ter and no worse than any other per- son.” Feld's case was continued until Monday for preliminary hearing. | PR ! Joseph and Niccolo Crudo were up |’ yvesterday before Judge Conlan on charges of murdering Prospero Migalo on Green street on November 12. Near- ly every Italian bootblack in the eity was present to listen to the opening evidence. A somewhat surprising feat- ure was developed when the prosecu- tion put on a witness who testified that | Niccolo Crudo, who is admittedly the | slayer, attempted to get away from the | dead man several times on the night of the alleged crime, but that Migalo persistently followed him. This wit- ness was dismissed as quickly as pos- | gible, but the defense took full advan- | tage of his testimony in the cross-ex- amination. The main testimony taken yeSterday was from Policemen Jack | Stelzner and C. W. Matthewson, who found the body of the dead man. De- | tective Harry Reynolds, who made the l‘arres\s gave some evidence concerning | admissions made by the defendants | that practically fixes the slaying on Nicolo Crudo. Frank Martinez went into the shoe | store of H. G. Chase, on East street, | Friday and tried on a pair of $3 shoes. | The fit was perfect, and the customer | hypnotized himself in wonderment at | the ingenuity of a far-away shoe fac- tory that could so perfectly manufac- |ture an article that would conform with his Chiguagua-born feet. Glancing hastily around as he came out of the trance he called the proprietor’s atten- tion to the fact that some unworthy dog of a miscreant was attempting to force the back door. While the pro- | prietor’s attention was attracted he ,sprlnted away with the new shoes on | his feet. He was overhauled and spent the night in jail.

A few ddys ago a Salinas woman went to Pacific Grove. She had a telescope basket which contained fruit wrapped singly in papérs and other articles. This was securely fasten- ed by two heavy shawl straps, and checked to her destination. Upon arrival at Pacific Grove, which is only 28 miles distant, she recelved her basket, but all the fruit was gone as were several small articles. The paper in which the fruit had been wrap- ped was In the basket. As the train stops an hour and a half at Castroville after arrival at 11:40 a. m., before con- nection is made with the Grove train, it is not possible that without the full- est inquiry it can be discovered where the robbery occurred. Other cases somewhat similar are reported. ——————————— STARK HANDS OF CORPSE HOLD HORSES STEADILY Adam Becker Halts His Team in the Shadow and Pays Nature’s Debt.

In the deep shadow caused by an obstruc- tion of the electric lights they dlscern- ed the form of a man seated on a bak- ery wagon standing at the corner. The | man was half sitting, half reclining on his seat with the reins in his hands. The horses were nodding drowsily. “He's asleep,” was the comment of Patrolman Phillips. “Let's wake him,” suggested Wilson. “Say, old man, wake up.” There was no response. One of the officers placed his hand against the cheek of the supposed sleeping man. He was stone dead. The body was identifled at the Morgue as that of Adam Becker, a member of the Bakery Wagon Drivers' Union. He was 65 years of age and had passed out of life painlessly and | unwarned.
