The San Francisco— The package arrived - after Hirschfeld left his home yesterday morning to consult with Captain Bur- nett. While he was discussing the af- fair with the captain Mrs. arrived and joyfully announced that the missing jewels had been returned. The robbery occurred under peculiar circumstances. The jewels were stolen from their hiding place under a mat- tress in a bedroom of the Hirschfeld residence a week ago Thursday, while Mrs. Hirschfeld was giving a birthday reception. Detectives Dinan and Wren, who were detailed on the case, suspected that some one who was familiar with the household affairs of the Hirschfelds was the thief. Mrs. Hirschfeld scoffs at the police theory that any one of her guests took the diamonds. The box in which the stolen gems were returned gives no clew tc the thief. Though evidently a novice in crime, the robber was cun- ning enough to refrain from using his or her handwriting to address the package. While Mrs. Hirschfeld is satisfied with the return of her property and is mnot anxious to press the case, the police are still attempting to run the robber down. They claim that an arrest may be made which will cause a sensation. s o L Presents Order Too Late. Henry W. Copp, jeweler, 134 Sutter street, secured a warrant from Police Judge Cabaniss yesterday for the ar- rest of G. W. Adams on a charge of obtaining goods by false pretenses. Copp sold a gold watch and chain to Adams on Thursday and in payment received an order for $80 on the Southern Pacific Company, with whom Adams was employed as a clerk. Copp took the order to be cashed, but found that Adams had drawn his pay about two hours be- fore and had left the company’s ser- vice. Detective Lewin of the South- ern Pacific is also looking for Adams. e ADVERTISEMENTS.

T., Oct. 28.—The resi- dents of Nogales, Sonora, were terrified last night by the report that a party of a hundred or more Yaqui Indians were hiding in the mountains back of that town awaiting an opportunity to make an assault on the place. A rancher named Draga, who lives in the | foothills of Huachuca Mountains, reached Nogales about dusk with the report. arrived ,from the same section, con- firming the story and stating that the Indians on the warpath were well sup- plied with arms and ammunition. | The authorities bestirred themselves, practically the whole town was aroused ~and all preparations were made for the attack so fully expected. Eight years | ago the Indians attacked the Nogales Custom-house and the officials believed that the assault would be made at that point.

Talks Herself Into and Out of Court OF HIS LODGE Peter Veilstrup, Treasurer of Red Men of Woodland, Admits Wholesale Thefts SHORTAGE OF < Fl i Sick From Long Worry Over His Misdeeds, He Asks That He Be Prosecuted WOODLAND, Oct. 28.—Peter Veil- strup, keeper of the wampum of the local tribe of Order of Red Men, to-day confessed to his fellow members that he has been systematically appropriat- ing the funds of the tribe to his own use. He begged the members to deal with him according to the law, but to save his bondsmen. Veilstrup 1s a charter member of Shawnee Tribe of Woodland and has held the office of keeper of the wam- pum, which corresponds to treasurer in other orders, for several years. His first theft, he said, was five years ago, when he helped himself to $50. The treasury of the tribe is now depleted and Veilstrup, with sobs, admitted that he is responsible for it. It is estimated that his thefts have exceeded $1000. Veilstrup is now in the County Hos- pital, whither he went a few days ago. It develops that his ailment is caused by constant worry over his dishonest administration of his office. A com- mittee of his fellow Red Men waited upon him yesterday to attend to some financial matters. It was then that he admitted that the treasury was empty and told of his crime. The District At- torney has been apprised of the facts, but is waiting for some one to swear out a complaint for Veilstrup’s arrest. The Red Men have not yet acted. ST L e T TWO PERSONS INJURED IN NORTH SHORE WRECK Work Trains Come Together Near Lagunitas and Conductor and * Engineer Are Hurt. SAN RAFAEL, Oct. 28.—A head-on cellision occurred upon the North Shore Railroad early this morning be- tween two work trains between La- gunitas and San Geronimo and as a result two of the train crew were seri- ously injured. The wreck was the out- come of the fallure of one of the en- gineers to regard his signals. One of the trains left Garcia sta- | tion with gravel for the White Hill tunnel and was near Lagunitas, when without warning an up-country work train approached and before the brakes could be applied the two | crashed. The locomotives were de- molished, but the crews, with the ex- ception of Conductor Kidder and En- | gineer Garcia, escaped injury. The former sustained a sprained ankle and sthe latter a contusion of the hip. Both will be confined to their beds for sev- eral weeks. The railroad people have inot yet ascertained who is to blame for the wreck. e WASHINGTON POWER COMPANY | PASSES INTO EASTERN HANDS | Syndicate Takes Over Snoqualmie Falls Concern, With Capital of Over Three Miliion. !

GLEN ELLEN, Oct. 28.—John wil- | the of Her Words That Devastates. | Miss Annie Faix, a buxom brunette of unmistakable Teutonic nativity, talked herself into the court of Po- lice Judge Cabaniss and then delib- | erately talked her way out again. She ! was formally accused of having dis- | turbed the peace of Mrs. A. Dodge of , 1549 Twenty-second street by saying things. It was not the quality of the language complaingd of—although that was harassing enough—that ex- asperated Mrs. Dodge. She could make allowance for educational imperfec- tions, and had always done so. But the quantity of words exploded by Miss Faix, combined with the futility of attempting to either check or es- cape the torrential flow, was more than human patience could passively endure. Much as she disliked drag- ging herself or any one else into pub- licity via the Police Court route, Mrs. Dodge could devise no other means of obtaining permanent relief from un- merited persecution by the defend- ant’s tongue. ‘She would ask for no other penailty than that of restraint. No, she was not the only person who had suffered from Miss Faix’s pen- chant for speaking. Right there in court were about thirty other folk who would corroborate every word she had said. Among those present were H. B. Dodge, Miss Maxwell, F.! Comstock, W. L. Funk, another Mrs. Dodge—but why enumerate the list? They were there and ready to testify. ; Then it was that Miss Faix com- | menced the oration that figuratively ! prostrated the prosecution, the bench and the dttorneys’ table and finally compelled her dismissal. For seven and one-quarter minutes by Clerk Barney Conlan's watch she talked without cessation, ignoring alike the attempted interruption of opposing counsel and the would-be restraining gestures of the Judge. What she said was not intelligible to any of her hearers until she abruptly elevated her voice from an even monotone to a C sharp declaration that she was not a “Dutch pig” and would not allow any living person to address her by such an appellation. When nature eventually asserted itself and forced her to a prolonged breathing intake the Judge took advantage of the op- portunity to continue the hearing one calendar month and inform the de- fendant that she was at liberty to 8o forth on her own recognizance. Then, before she could resume her harangue the bailiff cleared the witness stand and called the next case. . “And it is my sincere wish,” said his Honor, as Miss Faix swept ma- Jestically through the congregated and somewhat disappointed opposition, “that I may never see any of you peo- ple again—or at least until human in- genuity invents and an indulgent Board of Supervisors equips this court with a device for the silencing of witnesses who are afflicted with garrulity such as we have just ex- perienced.” * i | Charlie Barngrover, ordinary seaman aboard the Pensacola, told Judge Mo- gan about the shooting of G. Musso, pianist, by Private John V. King, United States Infantry, one night in the Cape Nome saloon. The mariner's narrative was interesting, but his manner indi- cated ennuf. “‘Oh, I don’t know,” he yawned in re- sponse to the court’s query as to how many shots were fired. “There was a scrap, I guess,” he continued, behind a tarry hand, “and I guess some shooting was done. Two kid soldiers were there, and (vawn) one fired a pistol. A bullet L or two (yawn) hit me in the clothes, ‘and (yawn) 1 didn't pay much atten- tion to (vawn) where the other bullets went. Naw, I wasn't (yawn) wounded. Oh, (vawn) one of the soldier kids had the pistol. Naw, I (yvawn) don’t know which of them had (yawn) it.” | Seaman Barngrover was saved from unseemly slumber by the summoning of another witness. Roy Kelly and Rix Romaine, alleged to be Stanford footballists, were cleared of the charges of battery, disturbing the peace and resisting an officer which had been flled against them by two special policemen attathed to an O'Farrell reet music hall. The testimony before dge Cabaniss showed that Kelly ac- cidentally broke a glass and that he was clubbed by one of the officers, whereupon he “tackled” his assailant, while his companion took care in simi- lar manner of the officer who dashed to his comrade’'s ald. The sturdy young fellows had much the best of the situa- tion, witnesses testified, when their op- ponents won out by asserting their of- . ficlalism. Case dismissed on the ground i that Kelly was justified in protecting himself from being unjustly clubbed. VL i g b o Wesley F. Fowler, accused of embez- zlement, failed to appear when his case ‘was called in Judge Mogan’s court, and an attorney. explained his absence by stating that while visiting Angel Island with one of his bondsmen, C. L. Ortega, the twain were arrested and detained. ?ent the lawyer exhibited to the court the following tel- egram which he had just received: ! “Arrested on Angel Island. Tell wives. | W. B.

Very wroth waxed Mr. Ebert when his wife in- formed him of what Mr. Lasco had said, and he at once visited that gen- tleman and vigorously resented the imputation cast upon his character, but did. not commit batfery or even threaten to do so, Mr. Lasco's testi- ! mony to the contrary notwithstanding. | Judge Cabaniss dismissed the case on the ground that the taxpayers of Sa:: Francisco could not afford to have 35§ worth of his time consumed in adjudl- cating a dispute over a stk-bit chicken. o Ay Judge Fritz sent two men separately accused of felony to answer in the Su- perfor Court, with the bail of each fix- ed at $2000. John McCormick was charged with having stolen some small | change from the pocket of a man who was asleep in a water-front saloon, and George W. Tyrrell's alleged of- fense consisted of passing a forged check. . . . C. L. Borreben was flourishing a re- volver of antique pattern and terroriz- ing the crew of a Hayes-street car when his arrest occurred. As the weapon was unloaded and as the de- fendant pleaded that it must have been placed in his pocket by some practical | joker Judge Mogan dismissed the case. s s = James McCauley calmly ignored the admonitory clanging of the gripman’s bell, the shouting of the excited con- ductor and the yelling of the impatient passengers as he drove his horse and wagon along the Larkin-street rail- road. Patrolman Cottle, who happened to be among the passengers, arrested the obdurate teamster after the latter had defiantly declared that he would not “turn out for any d—d railroad company.” Before Judge Cabaniss Mr. McCauley denied that he had uttered any profanity and pleaded that consid- eration for the feelings of his horse— a rather sensitive animal—was the cause of his delay in clearing the track. For neglecting to consider the feelings of the passengers, who were in a hurry to arrive somewhere, he was fined $5. - . John Murray was whipping a re- luctant horse attached to a wagon- load of wood when a policeman arrest- ed him on the Wisconsin-street hill, | and before Judge Mogan he pleaded that he was forced to apply the lash to kezp the anfmal from being dragged backward down the declivity by the vehicle. This explanation, coupled with his confession that he was an ama- teur teamster, obtained his dismissal. PN B Eleven matrons from Bartel street, in the Latin quarter, were ready to testify for or against Signora Sunta Zuchelli, who accused Signora Ales- sandrino Graziani of having assaulted her with fists and sticks and stones for no provocative cause whatsoever. Seven of the ladies had dark-eyed babes in arms, and the infants insisted on re: ceiving maternal attention to the ex- clusion of everything else. As Judge Cabaniss could not, even if he would, punish them for contempt of court, he continued the case and suggested that when the witnesses return they neglect to bring their tyrannical in- cumbrances. Judge Conlan continued till Novem- ber 4 the case of Thomas Thornton, allas George Wilson, charged with hav- ing stolen a diamond pin from Amon G. Carter of 107 New Montgomery street. There are two similar accusa- tions against the same defendant, and they will be taken up after the Carter complaint has been disposed of. —————— UNRECIPROCATED LOVE WAS SCHMIDT'S UNDOING Former Corporal in Army Chloro- forms Himself Because of Unre- turned Affection.

His dead body was found yesterday forenoon in bed with his face in a mass of cotton lint that had been saturated with chloroform. He had been a corporal in Com- pany M, Fifth Infantry, stationed in the Philippines. Schmidt had been living for about two months at 742 Fulton street and for the past six weeks had been very despondent because of his poverty and the fact that a married woman reciprocated his passion.

GROWERS HAVE WATER RIGHTS Judge Rhodes Gives Opinion in Suit Brought Against the Bay Cities Company $1000 It Is Not the Quallty bUt the Quantity VICTORY FOR FRUITMEN Issue at Stake Is the TUse of Subsurface Flows in the Santa Clara Valley SAN JOSE, Oct. 28.—Judge Rhodes to-day handed down an opinion in which he overruled the demurrers of | the Bay Citles Water Company to the complaint in the suit brought ! Charles _Hill to restrain the company from diverting the waters of Coyote Creek at a peint where they sink into | underground strata, forming, so the | plaintiff alleges, an artificial supply | from Coyote station to Alviso. Judge Rhodes enters fully into the law governing the use of subsurface waters and the right to restrain by in- ! junction any interference with its use | by landowners beneath whose soil they | flow, and he deals minutely with the | physical features of this valley, show- ing the formation of soil and strata, | the sources and trend of the subsurface | waters and their necessity to the fruit | growers. He sustains the plaintiff's contention as to the law, throwing upon | the defendant the task of proving that | the physical facts im this particular | case are not such as would come under the law as interpreted by the court. The fruit growers in a large section | of the vallev are convineed that upon | the outcome of the suits against the | company depends the future success or | tailure of their crops, and this decision | is hailed by them as a distinct victory at the initlal stage of the proceedings. —_——————— | PRAYERS FAIL TO PREVENT THE APPROACH OF DEATH by Jury Reports Woman Treated by Home of Truth Methods Victim of Neglect of Medical Ald.
