The Grant case DI.m,.,oa.

H. @. Grant, the attorney, was tried
before Justice Savage yesterday on the
charge of diseuading witness from testi-
Tying. This case grows out of the Ram
sey trial for rape, where it was sworn by
Mrs. Brown, the mother of the girl
Mary Waters) and by herself, that Mr..
Grant had offered them money not to
testify against Ramsey. The complaint
was sworn to by Brown, the stepfather OF
the girl, but he failed to appear at the
trial yesterday. The other two wit
nesses were placed on the stand aud told
the same story that they did in the
Superior Court. Mr.. Grant, in his own
defense, swore that he had visited the
Browns, and had talked with them for
the purpose of finding out whether it
was a blackmaiiing scheme against his
client or not. He was satisfied that it
was blackmail, and had ordered his
client not to see Brown at the jail when
he asked to be admitted to the cell.
The court, after hearing the evidence,
dismissed the charge, and the good rep
utation, professional and otherwise, of
Mr.. Grant may be considered to be re-
stored, If it was ever In hazard.

A SENSATIONAL MILL.
Los Angeles 80 be the Arena of the
Fight fer the ChnmptOnshtp.

~ ~ Ae*N shG RAOAh6MEpe
On Monday last tho Southern Califor-
mia Athletic Club telegraphed to Richard
X. Fox, of the New York Police Gazette,
that they would give $40 900 purse, to
be contested for by John l.. Sullivan and
Jake Kilrain, in glove contest to a fin
ish. Yesterday evening they received a
reply by wire from Fox that he would see
the principals and report result by letter.
The reply was not prepayed and cost the
club just $1.35 cents. This is about all
of the $4,000 that the Club will be
called upon to subscribe, because, az |
stated in these columns two months ago
when the Sullivan Kilrain ight was first
spoken of, neither Sullivan or Kilrain
will take chances in a genuine contest.
The proposed Dempsey Reagan fight
is still in allegiance, but as Dempsey is
anxious to accept the terms offered by
the club, there is a possible chance OF
the offer of the club being accepted.
At the meeting of the club yesterday
evening, resolution was passed that
the Secretary communicate with Rich
ard X. Fox, and arrange, through
him, to back Bill Goode, the
middle-weight champion of Eng
land, who is expected to arrive
in this country at an early date, against
any middle weight fighter in America,
Dempsey preferred, This looks like
business, and such fight would at once
place the club amongst the leading sport
ing associations of the United States.
The hall leased by the club is being
fixed up, and when finished, will seat
!, 900 spectators. ANGIIcE.

ton of the Club. Five delegates to the
State Convention of Democratic Clubs, to

TRAIN ON FIRE.
DIR. Webb,s special Train Meets
with Disaster.

Win DaSeAhAGIs
DR.. Seward Webb's train (the 800, 900
beauty, met yesterday with the first
catastrophe it has experienced during its
trip across the continent. 1t had been
hauled to Santa Monica over night and
remained there until morning, according
to programme. During the night, how
ever, its inmates were aroused by cry
that the train was on fire, and volumes
of smoke, pouring from the dining-car
showed that the alarm was well
founded. DIR. Webb was the first act in
tie dilemma, and seizing an axe he
climbed TO the top of the burning car
and hacked away portion of the roof
that was already beginning to blaze. A
plentiful supply of water being on hand
the conhagration was soon quenched,
not before it bad, however, done about
$4,000 damage. Its origin was due to the
failure of the cook to empty the CRATE
over night, and hot coal falling to the
ground had fired one of the curtains,
which had in turn communicated the
blaze to the roof.
The special was hauled back to this
city at as early an hour as possible, and
was turned over to Carmaster Donnatin
with the re equest that it be repaired as
fast as men and money could do it. DR..
Webb personally inspected the rebuild
ing OF the roof, and proved himself
to be we'll acquainted with the intricacies
of car-building, and not merely figure
head for the great Wagner Car Company
Ever, thing was in shape again by 2
O'Clock, and at that hour the dis
tinguished party left for Monterey,
where they will past the next four days.

coupled him with Mrs. S. E. Gross as
compagnon de voyage and as companion
guests at the same hotel. S. E. Gross is
q Mr.. and not Mrs., and We have
no desire to get DIR. Reynolds into un-
pleasant complications through an error
of careless compositor which may well
be termed gross. We welcome the Doctor
to the land of sunshine and orange

ing him of any awkward suspicion the
first announcement may have given rise
to, and starting him out on his way re-
joioing with clean bill of health.

INC Reet sugar Interests.

The report that some of the farmers
were not disposed to plant extensively to
beets this year at Watsonville does not
seem to be justified by the facts given
below. An Oregon paper thinks the
matter is misunderstood, and quotes the
following figures TO show the profitable
ness Of sugar beets. A letter from Wash
ington says:
"Mr. O. Spreckels, who is here in
Washington, preparatory TO opening up
his immense sugar refinery in Philaiel-
phia, gives me in person, the within rec
ord of the transactions of his beet sugar
factory at Watsonville, CAL, for the year
ending December 10, 1888, as follows:

magnificent Patnting.

There is exhibited ia the window of
Sanborn & Vail, very magnificent
painting by Col. A. jerks, the eminent
artist of this city. 1t is ga Russian We'd
ding" after Makowski. The coloring of
the picture is perfect, and the faces of
the bride and guests are very strong and
full of character. Col. jerks, since re-
siding in Los Angeles has devoted him
self with marRed success to portrait
painting, and this is one of the first COM
positions that he has exhibited. It is
understood that this picture was painted
for an eastern lady now visiting Los
Angeles.

Reilly & woods.

The Reilly & Woods Company will be
at the Los Angeles Theater next week.
OF this company the Cincinnati Enquirer
speaks as follows; The famous Reilly &
Wood Specially Show began q weeks en-
gagement at the Peoples Theatre yester-
day. At both matinee and evening per-
formance the house was packed to
suftocation, the night attendance being
about the largest ever known at this
theater. AS for the performance, it may
be praised in the most extravagant terms
without fear of offending truth, as it is
by odds the best specially show given at
the Peoples this season. The Valdis
Sisters in their revolving trapeze Of
course proved the great feature of the
entertainment, though many other indi-
viduals are worthy of special mention for
their clever work.

Sugar freight from watsonville to

(which is the cost of manufacturing
GAO tons OF sugar delivered C. o. d. in
San Francisco, making the cost of sugar
$4,000 per 1000 pounds"
''We received for 3 3,280,000 pounds of
sugar $l64, 454.70; beets consumed IA, or
tons sugar produced 1910 tons; men en-
ployed 1876; time of run 81 days; beets

ton 1904.
THAT the manufacture of sugar from
beets is a remunerative business to all
parties interested is clearly shown by the
above statement. First and foremost,
as natural consequence, the com pany
has realized the handsome little profit of
$50 900, or $500 per ton for their sugar !;
the farmers have received $71 900 for
beets' produced by them, and about
$40 600 has been expended in labor"
The Pacific Coast Sugar Refinery at
Alvarado has changed hands, and will be
managed by E. @. Burr, of San Francis
CO, formerly manager OF the American
Sugar Refinery. The mill will be run
entirely with white labor, with E. F..
Dyer as Superintendent.
The Pomona Progress expresses the
belief that beet sugar refinery will be
located at Chino during the next nine
months. An agent of the Alvarado fac
tory visited there recently to investi-
gate, and reports everything satisfactory

mrs. Burnexr,s sensation.

Monday night, next, at the Grand
Opera House, theater-goers will have
their first introduction to Little Lord
Fduntleroy in the flesh. Mrs. Burnett
has certainly demonstrated her own
cleverness in writing successful story,
and then supplementing it with still
greater success in her own dramatic
to praise-and they have from all ac-
counts found great deal-or found to
criticize, the fact remains that the play
has had a career of two years uninter-
rupted prosperity in London, and that it
has been all winter, and is still, turning
away crowds Of people from the Broad
way Theater, New York, and has been
for the past four weeks filing the Baldwin
Theater, San Francisco. Much of the
success of the play is undoubtedly due to
its purity and sincerity of motive, and to
the fact that it pleased the old and the
very young alike. The keynote was
probably sounded by the critic who said,
EVERY mother will like this pretty
play"
The management promise everything
possible in the way of production and the
care and attention given to the details of
cast and accessories. The two 'little
lords" Wallie Eddinger and Flossy
Ethyl, have both been highly spoken of,
and the remainder of the company con-
tains some excellent material. Wallie
Eddinger plays the title role on the open
ing night.
As has already been mentioned, the
management announces that during the
run of this play, matinee will be given
Wednesday and Saturday.
Tomorrow morning, at 10 o'clock, the
sale of seats will open, and long line
OF purchasers is expected.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Les Angeles Fheater.

Madame Janauschek last night cleo
tri6ed her audience in the character OF
Lady Macbeth" with many flashes OF
her old time genius. During her pres
ent engagement her health has not been
very robust, and her acting has been
consequently uneven. Her support, for
such play, was scarcely responsive to
all her requirements of the occasion, but
Mr.. George D. Chaplin illustrated his
remarkable versatility by assuming the
character of Macbeth" after having
essayed that of "Dandy Dinmont" on
the opening night. As on the previous
night, the audience was nothing like what
tshould have been to greet world wide
celebrity.
Meq Merrilees will be repeated tonight.
