Gare nett, convicied of murder In the second degree for shooting and killing Major J. W, McClung, | was made by Attorney D. Eolling be- fore Judge Lawlor yesterday. The motion was made on the grounds that the evidence was insufficlent for a verdict of murder in ‘the second degree and that the court erred in ad- mitting and rejecting testimony and in in- structing the jury. The Judge said he would give his decision on the motion on Friday. SAN FRANCISCO GAS AND ELECTRIC CO. A gentleman is & man made right and im. | Dentist’s Pistol L Mrs. Barker, and they voiced it with emphasis yesterday morning in the court of Police Judge Mogan, that Dentist M. E. Smith must have been either insanely reckless of consequences or imbued with murderous desiré when he fired his pistol last Sunday after- noon and frightened them almost to the swooning point. They were seated on the ocean beach, opposite M street, they averred, when the sharp report of a revolver, shot behind them, and the simultaneous splash of a bullet in the water at which they were pensively gazing rudely dispelled~ their day dream. Springing to their respective ! feet they saw Dentist Smith, pistol in hand, standing on the boulevard and apparently preparing to send another leaden missile in the direction taken by its predecessor, which was in direct line with their persons. They fran- tically requested him to save-his am- munition and then had him arrested for discharging firearms within the city | limits. They were certain "that their lives were only preserved by a sand hummock that lay between them and the marksman when he fired the first shot. Mr. Barker, indeed, believed that the bullet whizzed directly a few inches above his head and that if he had not happened to be in a recumbent position it would have entered his body. So narrowly did it miss him that he ‘both saw and heard its flight. The defendant said he did not per- ceive any one between himself and the ocean when he fired the shot and the| only motive he had in firing it was to ascertain whether his pistol was in working order. As he had never seén or heard of Mr. or Mrs. Barker until they leaped from behind the hummock that concealed them from his. gaze when he took aim, he certainly had no desire to kill or even scare them. Mr. Barker, however, insisted on in- sinuating ymething more than mere thoughtle: was at the bot- tom of the dentist’s misdemeanor, and so vociferous did he become in denun- ciation of that gentleman's conduct that the Judge took issue with him. His Honor heid that the defendant could be censured only for carelessness in his pistol practice, just as Mr. Bar- ker had been rather careless in his dealing with the truth when he testi- fied that he saw the bullet fly and heard it buzz. Then the case was taken under advisement. 28 S Edward Almon and his wife, Nellle, were in a saloon at 61 Third street early yesterday morning when a shot was fired, and Patrolman_ Tillman rushed in to investigate. From the cen ictory stories told ‘ by . those officer became convinced present th r. Almon had made a target of | h-p wife, but the woman denied it and oplgmented her denial with such | ux.<1 abuse of the accuser that he took | bothe he m.x her spouse into custody. continued the Almon is a bmlendm > e a dairyman attempted to en- ter the elevator of the Strathmore | apartment house, 207 Larkin street, with intent to deliver milk to Attorney . S. Green on the fifth floor, he was n—slrumed by the janitor, Thomas F. Doran, who took the ground that the hoist was for the use of guests only. So the milkman toiled upstairs and re- counted the incident to Mr. Green, who thereupon acompanied him to the first floor and, it is alleged, punished Doran. Judge Mogan continued the case till October 15. L . When Edward Murray was posing as a one-armed beggar on the Barbary , when Patrolman Nelson discov- ered the cheat and arrested him. The policeman testified that Murray had one of his arms twisted behind him in such a way as to lead the casual ob- server to imagine that it had been amputated at the shoulder, and that he was reaping a harvest of small coins from pitying pedestrians when his swindle was checked. Judge Con- lan gave him six months’ imprison- ment. Vaino Auvo Mativen, harboring re- venge for real or fancied wrong by a compatriot, John Yokila, came from Oakland with blood in his eye. But |’ he did not propose to take cowardly advantage of the man he hated. Neo, indeed. Instead eof committing ordi- nary assault and battery he procurdd a air of fencing foils, went to Yoki- 12’s residence, 243 Steuart street, and challenged him to cut, thrust and parry until one or the other was in- capacitated for further fighting. In- stead of accepting the challenge Yo- kila had Mativen arrested and charged with disturbing the peace. Judge Con- lan continued the hearing. & eniid Judge Mogan consented to have the charge of grand larceny against John Benson changed to that of battery, and then sentenced him to six months’ imprisonment. Benson is 18 years of age and by occupation a sailor. He was arrested on September 15 on complaint of Mrs. Kate Courtenay of 332 Main street, whom he knocked down and, it was alleged, attempted to rob at Main and Howard streets. Several firemen who witnessed the incident testified that | the young fellow was drunk and appar- ently did not realize what he was do- |ing. He was given a good character by the superintendent of the Sailors’ Home, where he resided. S ! Captain Lewis Lazzarevich lost his | position as master of the steamer | Wing and Wing last Friday, but de- spite that fact he boarded the vessel | Saturday morning and bullied the crew | around just as if he were still author- | ized to do so. Among those who i nored his commands was the ship's blacksmith, and that functionary’s re- fusal to do as ordered resulted in his being struck upon the head and knock- down a hatchway by the tetired skipper. Judge Mogan will hear the defense next saturday.. . e James Hawks believed he had a right to chop. down the stairway leading from the street to his home on the second floor of 782 Fulton street. In the first place, he argued, only his own family would be put to any inconven- ience by his removal of the means of ingress and egress, and, In the second place, the stairs had been so debili- tated by the effects of the rainstorm that they were no longer safe to tread upon. Therefore he considered it the prerogative of no person outside of hi® own household to dictate what he should do or should not do with the stairway. Although he questioned the right of Patrolman BEarle to arrest him for malicious mischief; he did not at- tempt to resist that officer, but meekly accompanied him to the prison. He hoped that Judge llon.n ‘would 'dn carefully the circumstances before pro. nouncing judgment. His Honor took all the facts into m- sideration before he Hawks and ordered restored to hlm the ax which the policeman had ap- mprhted with lntendon to submit as Thomas Stewart. an able bodied vag- ANCISCO CALL, It was the opinion of both Mr. and case, | TUESDAY OCTORER 11, 1904. ands Him in Court W hile Shooting at the Ocean He Scares the Barkers. rant, was sent up for six months by Judge Mogan for soliciting alms at Sutter and Kearny streets. Patrolman Teutenberg testified that the defendant hur®ed anathemas at pedestrians who ignored his appeals tor' aid. w . John -Bell was intoxicated when he entered the Winchester Hotel last Sun- day night and, unperceived by any. of the usually vigilant attaches, went to bed in a front room. Some time later, however, he was discovered by a watchman, who, after much trouble, | awakened him and requested that he | pay a dollar for use of the apartment. |'Mr." Bell said he considered the rate exorbitant, but rather than be ejected {'he would pay fifty cents for his night's | lodging. " The offer was declined and Mr. Bell was requested to-vacate, but | he acted so obstinately that a police- man was called to arrest him for de- frauding an innkeeper. When searched at the prison $6 was found in one of his pockets. *“Are you willing to pay a‘dollar for the room?” inquired Judge Mogan yes- terday morning ‘“‘Certainly not,”” was the answer. ““The apartment is not worth a dollar a night, and, besides, I occupied it only a short time. However, to avoid trou- ble. I renew my offer of fifty cents.” ““Your desire to save trouble is ap- preciated,” said the c.;%n, “but I am afraid that is as far as it can be pam- pered. When you come here for sen- tence to-morrow you will find that the Toom has cost you at least $10 or im- prisonment for as many days.” “I am acting on principle,” said Mr. Bell. being able to afford to do so0,” said the Judge. Mr. Bell recently came from &n in- terior town. b SEORIPOREE PERSONAL. Chester Rowell of Fresno is at the Grand. Frank P. Flint of Los Angeles is at the Palace. W. H.
