complice, charged with rape, was sub.
mitted to the jury last night. This

verdict as rendered added a recommen
dation to the mercy of the court.

was brought by plaintiff, who is col
ored man, under the Civil Rights Act tc
recover $500 damages for defendants
refusing to serve him in his restaurant
some months ago. The motion to dis.
miss was made because of the recent de
cision of the United States Supreme
Court in similar cases.
The Railroad middle.
SAN FRANCISCO, October lS.-The
railroad managers here say the threat
ened refusal of the Northern Pacific to
continue the special contract system
will have no effect ON the roads west oi
the Missouri river. Under the fifth sec
ton of the private agreement the'North-
ern Pacific took ''solemn obligation, =
as the clause reads, to maintain the
present existing rates. The managers
here claim that Willard will have to dc
so until he gives the required ninety
days notice Of his withdrawal from the
compact. The reason assigned for this
proposed action of the Northern Pacific
is that Willard wants to establish Q
special contract system on his own line.
One of the managers asserts that he Is
doing so now, in violation of the agree
ment entered into, aud that he has proof
that Willard offered special contract
rates to Portland merchants Immediately
after the close of the conference, the
contracts to run to December 3lst, 1884.
He says he also has reason to know that
Willard committed himself by promise to
give through rates on local tariffs.
These matters will be considered at the
meeting at Chicago on the 3lst, when
another Commissioner will be elected.
No Pay, No work-Strike Of Court
Rep0rters
SAN FRANcIsco, Oct. Is For six
months or more past the official short
hand reporters of the twelve depart
ments of the Superior Court have re
ceived no pay for their services. Yes
terday Mr.. McGinnis gave notice that he
would refuse to proceed to-day, and pur'
suant to this warning he, when the case
of John S. Gray, on trial tor embezzle
ment, came up, declined to report the
proceedings For this declination Judge
Toohy adiudged him guilty of contempt
and ordered him into the custody OF the
Sheriff until he purge himself of the
charge. In Judge Ferrals Court
reporter Gallagher gave notice that he
would Iinish reporting the case ho was
engaged on, but would then refuse te
work longer without pay, Reporter j
II. w. Riley, of Department. |, also re
fused to proceed and the court had Il
continne several cases. This afternoon
McGinnis applied to the Supreme Courl
for writ of habeas corpus. Judg'
Toohy continued the Gray case unit
Tuesday next, pending the decision OF thu
Supreme Court, where the matter II
now under consideration. The actor
of McGinnis, it is said, may also affec
the execution of the sentence OF th'

furnished with transcript of the testI
mony prior to the date of sentence, tn
execution cannot legally occur.
