An unusually heavy storm came in and struck the coast at San Francisco. It was accompanied by high winds and traveled rapidly. The barometer readings were low in the northern The rainfall was Angeles, where it is most needed. A wind velocity of fifty miles an hour was reported from Nevada, thirty-six miles from Farallones, for- ty-two in this city, fifty at Point Reyes and sixty-three on Mount Tam- alpais. The rivers rose yesterday be- fore the storm as a result of the warm weather in the mountains.

Judgr CORPORATIONS LOSE CONTEST Supreme Court Denies All Petitions for Rehearing in the “Franchise Case” The corporations of this State must pay taxes on their franchises. The Su- preme Court has handed down its final decision in the matter, and there can be no further appeal. The petitions for a rehearing have been denied without comment, and a remittitur has gone down to the Superior Court. The case in which this point was in- volved was brought by the Bank of California against the city and county of San Francisco. A decision was ren- dered in favor of the municipality on February 18. The corporations through- out the State rallied for a contest, and some of California’s ablest lawyers filed a formidable array of new arguments in the case. The Supreme Court post- poned further action until the new features of the contest had been thoughtfully considered. Yesterday the court issued a formal notice that it ‘would not alter its previous decision. The Bank of California will pay about $12,000 more for taxes than formerly, and other corporations will have to pay in proportion to their wealth. The value of a corporation’s franchise under the decision will be considered to be the difference between the value of the’ concern’s tangible property and the market value of its stock. The court holds that a franchise is a property. It ‘was not previously so considered. Assessor Dodge assessed the Bank of California for a franchise. The cor- poration held that it did not possess one. The dispute was carried into the Superior Court, where a decision in favor of the municipality was rendered. An appeal was at once taken to the | gloss; Supreme Court, which upheld the judg- ment of the inferior tribunal. Under the final judgment the corporations of San Francisco will pay about $100,000 more in taxes annually.

Dempsey, formerly one of the deputies of ex-Sheriff Lackmann, appeared in the United States District Court yesterday and pleaded not guilty to an indictment charging him with having conspired with W. F. Dasha, T\ T. Burnett and Lee Lim to land prohibited’ Chinese coolies by the pro- cess of substitution. On behalf of Lee Lim, Samuel M. Shortridge argued a demurrer to quash the indictment for uncertainty and be- cause it failed to set forth any of- fense under the Federal statutes. Mr. Shortridge read that part of the in- dictment charging that on July 1, 1803, Dasha, Dempsey, Burnett and Lee con- spired with other parties unknown to land illesally in the United States cer- tain coolies whose names were un- known to the Grand Jury, and that on the same date Lee pald Dasha, Dempsey and Burnett a certain un- known sum of money for the purpose of inducing them to substitute certain unknown Cleinese for certain other un- known Chinese who had been or would be ordered deported to China. The counsel argued at length that no overt act was alleged in the indictment. The giving of the money by Lee to the other defendants, the counsel urged, was not an overt act in furtherance of a conspiracy already in existence, but it was simply a part of the con- spiracy itself and an inducement to ‘the three white men to enter into the’ conspiracy. Counsel quoted from the Alabama case of the United States vs. Milner, 86 Federal Reports, in which the Judge is quoted as saying that in a conspiracy case it must be shown that the overt act postdated the conspiracy, and tHat it was not a part of the conspiracy it- self or done to effect its object.
