16 THE = SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, APRIL 2, 1904 Transaction t There was ‘a tremor of exeitement and & moment of anxiety in Judge de Haven's court - yesterday afternoen, wlien Thomas T.

Mc- Gow ade the same request on be- half of his client. Hom Toon, but Judge de Haven denied his request. Assistant D! t Attorney B. F. McKinley then made a atement to the jury, giving an outline of the case and-what the prosecution expected to prove. - McKinley surprised the de- fense by supplying figures and dates designated ‘in- the indictment as un- Known, and objecti to this new in- Tormation were overruled Then . Woodworth sprung his sur- prise. ‘He called for Thomas F. Burnett and the latter walked to the stand "The. witness said he was captain of the jail on Broadway, where Chinese awaiting deportation are kept, and had charge of the door leading to the street Dasha had charge of -the top tier of celi§, and Dempsey had charge of the yérd. - All worked on the same shift and had charge of the Chinese. “Did you-ever have any conversatjon with Dasha and Dempsey on the sub- ject of substituting Chinese?” This question brought all the coun- sel for the defendants to their feet at onece -with objections. Burnett was a co-defendant, -they .satd—a co-con- spirator—and his evidence was not admisstble unless it could ‘be proved first that a conspiracy existed between the parties. " The objection was over- ruled and the witness continued: STORY "OF A CRIME. It was about in March or April last year that Dasha, Dempsey and myself made a campact to gubstitute Chinese. On August 17 or 18 Hom Toon came to.the County Jail in the evening with three Chimese who were to be changed for fhree men held for deportation. Dasha . and Denipsey were present at the time. The three substitutes were left and Hom Toon went away. When Hom Toon came to the jail on the affernoon of August 17 he asked me if I would ‘make the change and 1 gaid I would. “Dashia and Dempsey were present and saw the Chinese. I would not say whether or not these men took the heathens - held for deportation from the yard. They were changed in my presence. Hom Toon had the names of Chinese he wished taken from the jail. the jail were placed in the cells occu- pied by the others-and the three re- leased were’ taken to the street by Hom Toon and turned joose. Hom Toon paid $600 for the job. I gave Dasha and Dempsey what was coming to them. It was understood that the money should be divided among these codefendants, | all ‘par-| condemn his partners| nett's name | arms The ‘three. brought into | FTELLS‘JURY THE STORY OF CONSPIRACY IN THE CHINESE SUBSTITUTION CASES Thomas T.

Witness s he could not: remember. He knew that Hom Toon had often asked him to switch Chinese, but he told him he couldw't. It was a week or; ten days before the last switch was made that Hom Toon met him near | the jail and made him a proposition. | ‘Did he how much money he | would give you? ! “I told him how ‘much I would | want. I wanted $200 per man to| DIVIDING THE COIN. | “Did_you tell him { Dasha and Dempsey the $200°” “He didn't need to ask me nm.-ause{ | he knew. I don’t know that I told him | that I would give them and Gamble | any money. After Hom Toon spoke | |to me I spoke to Dasha about it, but I don’t know whether Dasha had seen | | Hom Toon previously to that time ' | “Did you enter specifically into any | agreement to work for Hom Toon ) “Our agreement was to work for any- | | body that came along. Dasha, Demp- | |sey and myself made this agreement | among ourselves in the jail.” Attorney McGowan then asked the witness if he was in any pressing need | of money at the time, and he said he was not. After objections had been | made and sustained to several other questions of minor importance, Bur- | nett resumed his seat in the body of | the court, and A. L. Farish of the Mar- | shal's office was called for the purpose | of identifying a return on the affair | that had been made by Gamble, Willlam F. Burns, the well known | | secret service agent from Washing- ton, told of his interviews with Dasha and Dempsey in the Russ House soon after the substitution. He denied that ‘hn had the men in a “governmental sweatbox,” as inferred by the defense, and said that both made free and vol- untary confessions. There was consid- erable effort on the part of the attor- neys for the defendants to prevent thesé confessions from becoming a por- tion of the record, the cldim _being made that they were invalid by reason of having been made under duress and | intimidation. The court ruled other- wise, and Burns continued. It was stipulated, however, that the state- ! ments made by either Dasha or Demp- ‘nt‘y would not be binding upon the jother, and his Honor cautioned the | witness to omit as many names as pos- sible except that of the particular party he was quoting. According to the witness, Dasha had told of how in the fall of 1902 Hom Toon. had on four different occasions asked him to substitute Chinese. He refused these four offers, but accepted the fifth, receiving $332, and a sixth, for which he got $200. With Dempsey and Burnett he had transscted busi- ness in June, July and August. Burns said that he had questioned Dempsey on the same occasion, but did not get much information from him. He said that on two occasions he had received $25 and $30, respectively, and that, al- though he knew of the substitutions, he was not one of a ring. Attorney Schooler submitted Burns to you would give each a third of | i a mild cross-examination, after which court noon at 2 o'clock —3 In Complaint Allegations of Fraud Are Made and Also of Attempt to Freeze Out/ AN INJUNCTION SOUGHT | HALE’S.

An injunction is asked to | brevent the defendants selling or dis-| | posing of 595 shares of the stock of the Pacific Coast Seeded Ralsin Com- | pany on account of an assessment that { | has been nlaced upon the stock. i The complaint was filed yesterday. It | contains many allegations that are in strong terms. The attorneys that filed the complaint are Campbell, Metson & Campbell, M. B. Harris and J. B. Rein- stein, It is set forth by them that the Pacific Coast Seeded Raisin Company was formed by the Phoenix Raisin Seeding and Packing Company, the Griffin & Skelly Company, the Fresno | Home Packing Company, Porter Broth- | ers Company and the Forsyth Com- | pany, and while the articles of incor- poration of the Pacific Coast Seeded Raisin Company were signed by Gar-| tenlaub, Griffin, Gray, Forsyth and| Lynch, they acted solely as the agents | | of their various corporations and the stock subscribed by them was the prop- erty of and was controlled by the co porations that are named in the com- | plaint, the stock being five shares to feach. In December, 1902, William For- | vth and the Forsyth Seeded R \ | Company conveyed their interest in the | | Pacific Coast Seeded Raisin Company | to the J. K.

Then it is alleged that on July 11‘! 1901, the same directors caused the Pa-| cific Coast Seeded Raisin Company to! return all brands and trade marks to the corporations and to Forsyth, and allowed each of them to continue in business and to use and control the good will of their various businesses without any consideration being paid to the Pacific Coast Seeded Raisin Com- pany, and that this was in furtherance | of a combination and agreement made between the corporations and Forsyth that the Pacific Coast Seeded Raisin Company should be used solely for their own benefit. Acting under such agreement, it is charged, there were conveyed by sev- eral corporations to the Pacific Coast Seeded Raisin Company packing-house and warehouse properties at Fresno, with machinery, leases, personal prop- | erty, etc. Included in these transfers was one by the Porter Bros. Company etc., in Fresno. It is also alleged that the properties were sold by the cor- porations to themselves, their agents which were ties in the sums indicated: To the Griffin-Skelly Company, $49,- to the Forsyth Seeded Raisin Company, $29,881 18; to the Phoenix Raisin Seeding and Packing Company, $45,704 23; to the Fresno Home Pack- ing Company, $29,557 43; to the Porter Bros. Company, $41,261 38. These prom- issory notes are alleged to be a part of a pretended indebtedness for which certain ascessments were subsequently levied.

Shortly after the failure of Porter Bros. bought 59 shares of the Pacific Coast Seeded Raisin Company’s stock that had been issued to the Porter Bros. Company. The directors are ac- cused of conspiring, with the excep- tion of Lynch, to obtain the stock of Borter Bros. without paying for it and to divide the same among themselves, and for that purpose, so it is charged, they informed the trustees of the Por- ter Bros. Company that the stock was of no value and threatened that they | would levy assessments on the stock. Two assessments were levied of $10 a share, which were paid. The first of these assessments was dated Septem- ber 26, 1903, and the second was levied as soon as the first assessment had been fully paid. The third assessment was dated January 16, 1904.. This was delinquent on February 25, 1904. April 2, 1904, was named as the sale day for stock that was declared delinquent by reason of non-payment of assessments, It is alleged that all apparent in- debtedness of the Pacific Coast Seeded Raisin Company that was made the ison, Dr. Guy Manning; Marshall, Dr. A.
