Epecial Dispatch to The Call. SANTA CRUZ, Oct. 18.—It became known here to-day that a movement is | on foot to consolidate all the lighting |and power plants of Santa Cruz and Watsonville, with the ultimate purpose | of merging ' them into a company, which will include the lighting and certaln street railways of San Jose. The first move toward the accomplishment of this un- dertaking was made several weeks ago when the electric street railways of | Santa Cruz were consolidated. The| same persons who were involved in this| scheme are reported to be the main | factors in the greater one now being | quietly carried out. In the background is Manager Gran- ger of the newly organized street rail- way service and acting as his agent in | negotiations with the outside power | lighting companies is J. W.| Forgues of Santa Cruz. The stockhold- | | | | |ers of the different corporations have already given an option on their stock and it is reported that the deal will be consummated through the medium of | a San Francisco trust company and a | law firm of that city within the next thirty days. In the deal there are in- cluded the gas companies of Santa Cruz, as well as three electric lighting companies. { From what can be learned from those | who are concerned in the deal it is the | intention of the absorbing company to establish electric railway connection | way points and eventually extend the present lines from Santa Cruz to Mon- | terey. With thes connections effected and with the extension of the San Ma- teo electric line to San Jose, which is said to be under consideration by the United Railroads of San Francisco, a | through electric line will soon be oper- ating between the San Francisco and Monterey bays. The promoters of the gigantic scheme have held frequent meetings lately in Santa Cruz and San Francisco and are | said to have already agreed on many points relative to the expansion of the traffic territory of the various lines which are to be merged. ———— HIS LIFE IN DANGER SAYS HEALDSBURG MAN Swears Out Warra for Arrest of Three Italians Who Assaulted Him With Deadly Weapons.

SANTA ROSA, Oct. 18.—John Gui- dotti, one of the two men shot at Glen i died last night. He was | unconscious to the end. The second victim, L. Ricei, it is expected, will re- cover. Lalini, the murderer, who was ar- rested last night at San Rafael, was brought to this city Tuesday morning by Sheriff Frank P. Grace. The weap- ted was found on his person. He ex- presses no contrition for his murder- of his victims had died merely shrug- ged his shoulders. District Attorney C. H. Pond, who Monday evening, is convinced that there is a woman at the bottom of the case. Ricei mentioned that Guidottl had taken a woman from Parachi’'s hotel at Glen Ellen to Sonoma Sun- day, and this is belleved to have/ aroused the jealousy of Lalini. Ricei says he was informed that Lalini had fore night, and states that he was on threat. When Lalini undertook to draw his gun Ricei sprang toward him, and this caused him to fire two shots at Ricci after wounding Guidotti. An inquest was held by Coroner Frank L. Blackburn this afternoon, and Lalini was charged with murder by the jury. e INSANE CONVICT TAKES HIS LIFE AT SAN QUENTIN Cell and While There Cuts His Throat. SAN RAFAEL, Oct. 18.—While temporarily insane, W. Stanley, an in- mate of San Quentin, committed sui- cide this afternoon by cutting his throat. Stanley was serving a term of two years from Stanislaus County for an assault to commit murder.

A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Effectual Cure for It. Catarrh of the stomach has long been conuidered the next thing to incurable. e usual symptoms are a full or bloat- | on the.heart and lungs and difficult fickle appetite, nervousness and a general played out, languid feeling. There Is often a foul taste in the | maouth, coated tongue and if the interior | of the stomach could be seen it would The cure for this common and ob- | | stinate trouble is found in a treatment | { which causes the food to be readily, | thoroughly digested before it has time |to ferment and irritate the delicate | mucous surfaces of the stomach. To | secure a prompt and healthy digestion is the one necessary thing to do and when normal digestion is secured the catarrhal condition will have disap- | peared. According to Dr. Harlanson the saf- est and best treatment is to use after each meal a tablet composed of Dias- tase, Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux, Gold- en Seal and fruit acids. These tablets n now be found at all drug stores under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and not being a patent medi- cine can be used with perfeclt safety and assurance that healthy appetite and thorough digestion wiil follow their regular use after mea Mr. R. 8.

O’Connell Admits That Lawyer Served a Sentence ALLEGES PERSECUTION —— Owing to Supreme Court’s Absence the Attorney’s Disbarment Is in Abeyance —— While the Supreme Court is in Los Angeles, the matter of its taking action to disbar Bernard Daniel O'Connell, an in this State, is held in abeyance. It was a question yesterday as to whether Mr. O'Connell was the same men as the Bernard Daniel O’Connell, who was convicted in 1897 of “Incit- ing, aiding and abetting an attempt at bribery” in the State of Massachusetts prisoned for six months. All doubts whether “Danlel” O’Connell of this city is identical with the Bernard D.O’Con- nell were removed yesterday, when a personal friend, M. A. O’Connor, a timber land speculator, of 602 Com- mercial street, came forward and ap- peared very indignant at what he termed the persecution of his friend. He referred to Mr. O’Connell as a brilliant man and a fine attorney and said that he was the victim of political animosity in the East. O’Connor said that O’Connell had who were his political enemies, and that one of the Justices of the Su- bitterest enemy O’Connell had. He also said that the attack on O'Connell was “mean and cowardly” inasmuch as the letter to the clerk of the Su- preme Court here was unsigned. Owing to the persecutions of his ene- mies in the East Mr. O’Connell came | out here, changed his name and en- deavored to start again. Mr. O’Connell graduated from Georgetown University and was first | admitted to practice in the District of Cclumbia. Later he removed to Mas- sachusetts, where he was admitted to practice. Following his conviction he was disbarred from practice by the State of Massachusetts. Upon the com- pletion of his sentence last May he came to California. He brought with him letters of introduction from prominent people, among them Con- gressman Sulzer of New York and Cor- poration Counsel J. J. Delaney and | recommendations from an influential | benevolent order. O’Connell intends to remain here permanently and is making arrange- | ments in the Bast to bring out his| family. Stephen Costello, on whose motion O'Connell was admitted to practice in California, said yesterday that he | could take no action until the Su- preme Court returned, at which time he would ask that O'Connell's admis- sion be canceled. Should O’Connell arrive here before the court returns it is probable that he will hand in his resignation and return his license. The fact that O'Connell did not state that chusetts Supreme Court would in it- self constitute sufficient reason for his disbarment here. 2 —_—— HUTTON CONTINUES FIGHT AGAINST HIS REMOVAL Demurrer Filed to the Petition for Writ of Mandamus to Compel Mayor to Act. A demurrer to the petition of Peter Rubino for a writ of mandamus to corhpel the Mayor to forthwith ap- point a successor to Police Commis sioner H. W. Hutton, “special chief of police for 1129 Dupont street,” on the ground that the office had become Vva- cant owing to Hutton being conviced and fined by Judge Cook for contempt of court for violating the injunction restraining the police from interfering with the restaurant business of Jean Pon, was flled yesterday by John S. Partridge of the City and County At- torney’s office on behalf of the Mayor. An amended petition was also filed by Attorney George D. Collins on behalf of Rubino. In the demurrer it is alleged that the plaintiff has no legal capacity to sue; that the petition does not state facts sufficient to constitute a cause of action against the defendant; that the couft has no jurisdiction and that the complaint was ambiguous as it does not appear how or in what manner Hutton was convicted of an offense in- volving a violation of his official duties as Police Commissioner. It was agreed that the arguments should be heard to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock, Partridge making a mo- tion that the amended petition be struck out and if denied that the de- murrer would apply to it also. —_—— Hack Driver Seeks Damages.
