THE CHAPARRAL Marin County Jury Finds| That Aged Capitalist Swore Falsely in Suit Over Deed OUT ON $10,000 BONDS Wife of Millionaire and San Rafael Merchant Guarantee . the Presence of Defendant Speclal Dispatch to The Call. SAN RAFAEL, March 13.—A severe shock was given to William B. Brad- bury, the Corte Madera millionaire lit- igant, when a jury brought in a verdict this afternoon finding him guilty of perjury. He was released tonight upon executing $10,000 bonds. He will ap- pear for sentence Tuesday, March 20. S. H. Cheda, president of the Marin County Bank, was cross-examined this | morning by Attorney James W. Coch- rane, who falled to shake Cheda's dam- aging testimony. Cashler George C. Hansen and Supervisor V. J. B. Cheda corroborated the banker's testimony and strengthened - the prosecution. Bradbury, when plaeed on the stand by the defense, denied each and every al- legation in the indictment. After brief arguments by Distriet Attorney Boyd on behalf of the people and Attorney Cochrape Judge Carroll Cook instruct- ed the jury on the law of the case. The jurors during the hour and a half they Wwere In the jury-room took one ballot. It stood ten for conviction and two for dcquittal. = Juror Studley of this city and Juror Earhart of Novato voted for acquittal. The jury came out for fur- ther instructions regarding the allega- tions in the indictment, and Judge Cook pointed out to them the material and ifmmaterial allegations. Five minutes later they found Bradbury guilty. The Jury was polled at the request of the defense. District Attorney Boyd vigorously op- posed the release of Bradbury on a small bond pending his sentence, saying, “Brad- bury fs under $2000 bond and‘l deem it advisable to have his bond pending sen- tence fixed at a very large amount. The Bradbury estate cannot be considered as a surety.” Judge Coon fixed bond at $10,000. Mrs, Mary Bradbury and Sigfried K. Herzog, @ merchant of this city, were accepted by Judge Thomas J. Lennon as securities. Mrs. Bradbury signed an in- demnifying note for §10,800 to Herzog-and placed it in Attorney Cochrane’s hands before Herzog would aflix his name to the bond. Mr. and Mrs. Bradbury claim that Bradbury is ithe victim of fraud on the part of McCue, the plaintiff in the case, out of which the perjury charge grew, and 8. H. Cheda, They firmly believe that the aged defendant will escape prison, and if necessary he will take an appeal to the highest court in the land. Bra@bury secured much prominence in 8an Francisco by fighting the expectorat- ing ordinance. In this county he was trled for an attempted criminal assault upon -his housekeeper, The jury reduced it to simple assault and the court im- posed a fine of $150. The perjury was committed in a sult brought by James 8. McCue, another fa- mous Corte Madera litigant, to compei Bradbury to accept $32% principal and interest on ‘a note and release a trust deed. The jury found that he commit- ted perjury when he testified in this suit that he did not call at the Marih County Bank and seek to prevent McCue from securing a loan, saying to Cheda at the time, “I don’t want you to interfere with my business and I won't interfere with yours.” TELL OF FUTURE OF THE ORIENT Noted Educators Discuss the Conditions in Japan s and China. OAKLAND, March 13, — President David Starr Jordan of Stanford Univer- sity and Professor Bernard Moses of the University of California tonight ad- dressed the members of the Men's League of the First Congregational Church, the subjeet of their lectures be- ing “Japan, China and the Orient.” Pro- fessor Moses spoke of the possibility of the conflict between the people of China and the European races, which he de- clared was one of the probable results of the steady advance of Western eivil- ization. He said that at the outbreak of the recent war between Japan and Russfa the former country faced the greatest crisis in its history and that China is now facing a similar crisis, which, however, may not come to actual confliet for another decade. President Jordan spoke on “Japan and Her Future.” He sald that imme- diately after the close of the recent war he had entered into correspondence with foreigners in Japan for the pur- pose of discovering just what the re- [ br sult of ‘the war had been on the peo- ple of the country. He said he had ‘been informed that the Japanese fos- tered no illusions as a result of Rus- sia’'s defeat, but understood that the confiict had been a hard one, which had just about exhausted the resources of Japan, even though the Japagese Gov- ernment had been preparing for war for a quarter of a century. In the fu- ture Professor Jordan said the Japan- ese must yet learn much or all which will tend to place them among the really great nations and it is to this that the Government of “New Japan” is now bending its energles. ————————— SALOON MEN LOSE POINT.

REDWOQGD CITY, March 13.—So rapié- 1y has the population of Sa§ Mateo Coun- ty grown within the last|year that it has become imperative up§1 the Board of Supervisons to make pradically & new and complete revision of theelection dfs- tricts of the county for- thelconvenience of voters at the State electiof in the Tall. It will be necessary to subdivide many the districts mow in existenceland to cre- ate” others. 'While the most noticahle increase in population has m in the neighborhood 6f San Mateo d Burfin- geame, other sections have ajso grown materially. South San Francisco will be divided into two _election districts and a voing phace will be established at Visttatio} Valley. This will give fiva election predneéts in- stead of ‘three to'the first township. In the second township three rnew pre- cinets will be added for the accommoda- tion of electors. ¥t is likely that a dep- uty régistrar will be appointed for Bur- lingame, which, with Homestead, will have the ‘distinction of a separate polling place. The most important changes wiil be made for the town of San Mateo and its suburbs. These changes in detall are Yas follows: No. 1—From San Mateo Creeis south to city limits (Ninth avenue) and from the Southern Pacific Railroad tracks to west- ern city lmits. No. 2—On the east side of the tracks from the creek to Ninth avenue. No. 3—From the tracks to the bay between the cresk and Poplar’ avenge.
