JUDGE GIVES THE CHILD ! INTO MOTHER'S CARE | | Contest Over Custody of Six-Year-Old ‘ Marguerite Laughlin Decided | in Superior Court. Judge Hunt of the Superior Court yesterday decided that Mrs. Kate | Laughlin was e: °d to retain the | custody of her six-year-old daughter, | Marguerite { A few weeks ago Mrs. Clara Wag- | ner, aunt of the child, applied to the | Probate Court for custody of the lit- | tle girl on the ground that the mother | was a person of dissolute and immoral | habits. | The arguments of the attorneys yes- terday were brief and immediately | Judge Hunt decided the controversy. He sald that he believed that some of the witnesses for the petitioner were untruthful. He said that it had been shown that at times the mother was hot tempered and given to evil speech, | but that the only witness who testified | | to her illicit relations with Bothe, a | man who lived at the same house and | | | was known to the Laughlin children as “uncle,” was unworthy of belief. But whatever her relations had been, said the court, they had ceased and it | had been shown that her child was always well cared for and uncontami- nated. It had been shown, too, thaf | the mother worked dally at the wash- | tub and that all her children were well | dressed. For these reasons Judge | Hunt “saw no reason to disturb the | | custody of the child,” and denied the application. | CARILIO 1S CHARGED | WITH GRAND LARCENY \ | Batiste Jordan Still Persistsin Accus- | ing Him of Stealing His Watch, ! Chain and Coin. Emelio Carillo was booked at the ity Prison yesterday afternoon on a charge of grand larceny. Batiste Jor- dan sticks to his story that Carillo was the man who knocked him down at Market and Powell streets on Sunday | | afternoon and stole his watch and | chain, with a pu-se containing $75. | The case will be called ©* the Police Court this morning. Carillo was released on $1000 bonds accepted by Judge Cabaniss. His | suretiés are W. M. Hall, Oakland, aud- itor of the Standard Oil Company, and Otis M. Goddard, Alameda, traveling auditor of the same company. They say that Carillo has been a trusted and faithful employe of the oil com- pany for fourteen years. They are satisfied that the complaining witness has made a mistake in charging Ca- rillo with the crime. The police are inclined to the same opinion, but in view of Jordan's per- eistent assertion that Carillo was the man they had to charge him. Carillo is foreman of the oil company at San Joee and has a wife and six children. —_——— Act Not Appreciated. ‘William O’Dougherty was arrested last night for malicious mischief, The prisoner thought to do a humane act and landed in jail as the result of his trouble.

According to the complaint Orr is a prospector and knows that the prop- erty in question contains a great quantity of placer gold and that the claims are worth more than $1,000,- 000, ““of which fact he has notified the company.” Orr further pleads that he is a poor man and unable to pay the assessment levied.

Brown of Seattle Accused of Taking Coin and Failing te Appear HIS NEGLECT ADMITS Offers No Excuse for the Sacrifice of His Client’s Valuable Mining Interest The drunkenness of Lawyer John K.

She deposes that when the time arrived for Brown to flle a brief on appeal Brown was “drunk and intoxicated and continued to be drunk and intoxicated for some time there- after.” This s accompanied by an afidavit from John K.
