IE WEBB Judge Ogden Decla * quittal Should Ha res Verdict of Ac- ve Been Found. NEW °‘TRIAL 1IN g L OAKLAND, Jan. 17.—“Had I been a Juror on the case, I am free to admit that 1 would have voted to acquit’ the defendant,”. was the remark of Judge Ogden this morniug from the bench, in commenting on the verdict of guilty re- turned last night in the case of A. C. Webb Jr.,, charged with assaulting thi teen-year-old Florence Cook of Alameda. The inference is that Webb will be £ranted another ‘rial on the ground that the evidence did not support the verdict of the jury. The case has gone over un- ! "l til’ January 2%, when Judge Ogden will | hear the arguments on the point. In'the meantime Webb has been admitted to bail in the sum of $2000. In giving his reason for the remark, Judge Ogden said: ‘“The testimony of the complaining witness in this case has | been flatly contragdicted by disinterested witnesses and I beifeve that the pre- | fendant and that he should have been given the benefit of it.”” The Judge, how- ever, stated that he did not wish to be understood as criticising the verdict, as he thought the jurors had done what they thought right. The arrest of Webb, who is a well known young man in Alameda, created a sehsation, and the trial of the case was ended with a harrowing courtroom scene last ‘night, in which his rnother and sis- ers cried out against the jurors and filled the room with their lamentations.

Cooper, who has come to Berkeley to Interest fraternity men in the Bible. Cooper is internatioral secre- tary of the college branch of the Y. M. C. A. Thirteen members of various fraterni- ties that have chapters at Berkeley met Cooper by appointment last night at the Delta Upsilon House, to discuss with him measures calculated to incite the *“frat’ men to a perusal of the Scriptures. Ar- rangements were made at a conference for a general meeting of fraternity mem- bers, held to-night in California Hall. Cooper is a graduate of Brown Univer- sity, class of "94. He Is a fraternity man Who conceived the idea several years ago of stirrtng up his “frat’” brdthren to a proper appreciation of the Bible as lit- erature and as a religlous manual. His efforts have been successful. He recom- mends a definite system among fraterni- ties for the work on_a line not altogether dissimilar to-the Chautauqua circle idea. He explained his plan to the fraternity men present in California Hall ‘to-night {and it met with approval and will be carried out. President Wheeler was to have been present, but found it impracticable, be- cause of previous engagements. The project has his heartiest sanction. It was explained at the meeting to-night that while Mr. Cooper is a Y. M. C. A. official, the movement he inaugurated at the university for Bible, study among fraternities is in no way allled with. the activities of the Y. M. C. A.

SAN RAFAEL, Jan. 17.—An automo- bile belonging to Frank S.

The fire originated in the carburettor. An impromptu bucket bri- gade was organized, and the raln water flowing down the street gutters was utllized with good effect.

HOWISON HARES THO NEN AR College Journalists Assert That the Professor Has Barted Them From Classes e BERKELEY, Jan. 17.£Two dent Journalist juniars, each of who is a member of the staft of the college dafly paper, the Californian, engaged also in outside newspaper work, report that they were to-day informed by Professor How- ison that they are not desired as mem- bers of his class in the course of Phil- osophy 3A because of thei~ work as news- paper men.

SAN QUENTIN PRISON, Jan. 17.—Te- night a year zgo ex-State Senator Harry Bunkers was busily engaged In attending Senate committee meetings in the State Capitol in Sacramento, now he is a con- vict occupying a cell. Bunkers, accom- panied by Deputy Sheriff Reese of Sacra- mentn, stepped out of the stage this after. noon and walked in a heavy rain to 3" front gate of the prison. The gualbi openéd the gate and Bunkers, followed by Reese, passed through. They went di- rectly to the turnkey's office, where Reese handed over the commitment and Bunk- ers, getting a receipt for him. Bunkers was given a number and then two photo- graphs were taken of him, one a profile and the other & full-face with hat off. The barber next had a turn at him, close- ly cropping his hair and giving him a clean shave. A minute description of him was then recorded agalnst his number. Impressions were taken of his thumb and fingers for identification purposes. The record part being compieted, Bunk- ers was taken to the cell and assigned for his futur® lodgings. During all the pro- ceedings at the prison he was calm and seemed to maintain that stolidity ich prevailed during his trial. Bunkers did not have much . to say. If he does not transgress he will serve tnree years and seven months as a conviet, unless he se- cures executive clemency or a parole. Bunkers will be assigned to the jute mill te-morrow to make grain bags. Un- der the present administration every con- vict first serves a six months’ probation- ary period in the jute mill. At the end of that time if his work and conduct are favorable he is assigned to more con- xet{lll employment —_——— NEW OFFICERS INSTALLED.
