CALIFORNI4's NEW EXCITEMENT.
Is the Killing OF Millionaire Mclaughlin
Chargeable to Judicial InemcIencyi

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec 21.-Thc Coroncr's
jury's verdict that Jerome b. Cox shot and
killed tho millionaire Charles Mclaughlin in
self defence merely voices public opinion. 1t
has. however. created stir. and the million
aires friends openly accuse the Jury OF bias.
The jurors have therefore published a card. in
which they cite some OF tho testimony that was
given before them to show that Cox did the
shooting in self-defcnce. But whether it was
justinablc homicide or downright murder. the
majority OF San Franciscans nre pleased with
the verdict The newspapers OF tho interior OF
the State boldly charge the crime to the inenn-

LA File do Nine. Angot" by Mr.. Grnu's

Mr. Grau's French opera company has re-
turned from tho provinces-that is. as much Of
the original company as usually returns from
the provinces. 1t is remarkable how proyin-
cial tour or trip to Mexico or Brazil affects
the chorus OF this company After such trip
it usually returns to New York with number
or new faces in the female chorus. but without
any increase In its number.
The company is however. always equal to
