THE HEIRS WANT A DlVY.
A Romantic Story and Litigation That
Grew Out of Ii.


a Romantic Story and Litigation That
Grew Out of 1t.
1t will be remembered that some months
ago the Union gave the rather romantic
story of the elopement many years ago of
J. w. Robinson from Cincinnati. He left
his wife and children and is said to have
taken $4,000 belonging to his wife. His
companion in flight was Sarah r. Snyder.
They came to San Diego about 1854.
Robinson proSpered. In 1857 he died and
left his property to Mrs. Robinson, TO whom
II is claimed he was never legally married.
The only child was son, who died quite
young.
Robinson's own children back in Cincin-
natl lost all trace of him until about year
ago, when Sarah r. Snyder was back there
on visit. She called at bank one day to
transact some business about some United
States bonds and the cashier happened to
be husband of one of Robinson's daugh-
tiers. Somehow he got clew of the story,
pursued his Investigations and the result
was that when Senator Hardacre was in
Cincinnati last fall he was given charge of
the case by Robinson's heirs, who propose
to fight for the estate, which amounts now
to very large sum, probably over 800, 900.
Yesterday the first papers were filed in
what will probably be a long and hard
fought case. Senator Hardacre and d. L.
Wilmington will represent the heirs of Rob-
inson.

decisions, which seem to have definitely

FOR HEAVY DAMAGES.
Trial Of Mrs. Haight's Suit
Against the Croker Estate.

The trial Of the suit of Julia Haight and
her husband against the executors of the
Charles Crocker estate for $4,000 damages
for injuries received by her in an elevator
in the building at 131 Post street on Oc-
tober 9, 1888, was commenced before Judge
CARRIER and jury yesterday.
Mrs. Haight testified that while seated in
the said elevator and ascending to the
fourth floor she felt choking sensation
and realized that her shawl was caught in
the hand rope. She unpinned the shawl at
her throat and then found that the skirt of
her dress was also wound around the rope.
She was dragged off the seat, but held to
the floor In most painful manner.
The young girl in charge of the elevator
vainly tried to release the plaintiffs dress,
and the other passengers left the elevator
thus released. Mrs. Haight further stated
that she keeps a clearinghouse, but has
been unable since to attend to her business
on account of internal injuries received.
The corsetS worn at the time of the ac-
cident were produced. The bones on the
right side were broken and the material APP
peared to have been submitted to a severe
strain. The cOrsets were handed to the
jurors for inspection and they handled the
article with dainty touch. The shawl was
also shown and was courteously placed over
the plaintiffs shoulders by Judge CARRIER
that the jury might see the manner in
which ii was worn.
The defendants have filed an answer
charging carelessness on the part of tho
plaintiff.

MEMORIAL DAY.
Preparing to Do Honor to De.
parted Comrades.

The Memorial Day Committee held a
meeting last evening at B'nai Birth Hall.
Edward S. Solomon presiding.
The Secretary read a communication
from the Mexican Veterans Association,
accepting an invitation to march in the
parade. The Secretary also reported that
General Miles had ordered four companies
of infantry, one troop of cavalry, the Angel
| Island band, four batteries of heavy
artillery and one battery of light artillery,
to march in the parade. The officers of the
several companies are instructed to report
to Colonel Shafter. who will assign them to
place in line. A detachment of light
artillery will also be furnished, for the pur-
pose of firing salutes at the cemetery.
| A communication was read from Com
| mander A. D. Buckles, stating that he could
not take part in the parade as invited, it
being necessary for him to be in Auburn
on Memorial Day with his post.
| A communication was read from John l..
| Boom, siguifying his Willingness to act as
| orator OF the day.
| The Committee on Day Programme and
| Excursions reported that song had been
| written for the occasion, which would be
| sung by the little girls engaged to strew
| flowers on the graves of comrades.
A communication was read from the
| Veteran Guard stating that they would
march with the several posts and not in n
body
a committee of three from the Musicians
| Union were present and petitioned the
| Memorial Committee to engage union music
| for the parade. They were referred by
| Chairman Solomon to the different posts,
who have power to select their own music.
Chairman Solomon reported that he had
not engaged a building for the evening
exercises. The Grand Opera House could
not be engaged for less than 500, which the
| committee could not afford to pay, and
| Metropolitan Temple was considered too
| small for the accommodation of the PEOPLE
expected. Mr.. Solomon was given another
week by the committee with full power to
| act.
On motion of General Cutting, it was
| voted to extend an invitation to all Grand
| Army men in the city to join the Memorial
| Day Committee, who have been invited to
| act as guard of honor to the remains of
| Judge Sabin and that they assemble with
| the Memorial Day Committee at the Palace
| Hotel at o'clock this evening and with the
committee escort the remains from the
| hotel to the Oakland Ferry.
