THEY EVADED TAXES.
And May Now Lose All That They
Ever Had.

The trial of the U. against the
Fruitvale Wine and Fruit company OF
Fresno was to have commenced yester-
day in the q. S. District Court. The
defendants were allowed to file an
amended answer to the libel of informa-
ton filed in January, 1889, by the then
U. S. District Attorney, George j. Den
mis- Esq. Judge Ross continued the
case until tomorrow at II o'clock. The
Fruitvale Wine and Fruit company was
seized in November, 1888, by the U. S.
internal revenue collector for having
evaded the payment of taxes on a large
quantity Of brandy. The present trial
is for the purpose of having the distil-
lery, the land upon which it is situated
and all its appurtenances declared for
feited to the United States.
In connection with the said seizure
Moore Young, secretary of the company
was convicted in the U. S. District
Court some time ago of having made
fraudulent returns and was sentenced
to one year in the county Jail of Fresno.
Other complications arose out of the
same matter which led to the arrest and
imprisonment of we'll known citizen OF
Los Angeles, the particulars OF which
are still fresh in the minds of the readers
of the HERALD.
There is now pending in the U. S.
Circuit Court suit brought by the U.
S. against the stockholders of the same
company to recover $4,000 alleged to
be due for taxes on spirits of which the
internal revenue department was
defrauded by the company.

TWO BOTTLES OF WINE
Caused Two Boys an Imprisonment of
Forty-Nine Days.

On the LIST of July couple of boys,
Aaron Daley and John P. Dolan, were
arrested by detective Auble, who charg-
ed them with burglary. They had in
their possession two bottles of Zinfandel
belonging to Pironi & Slatri, wine mer-
chants. They had preliminary exam
ination before Justice Austin, who held
each to answer in the sum of 81, 800.
The prisoners demanded separate trials
and that of John P. Dolan was COM
menced on Monday afternoon, and con-
cluded yesterday morning. The testi-
mony for the prosecution was mainly
hearsay, and nothing in it tended to
prove that the defendant and Daley had
committed any burglary, or that they
even were in possession of stolen goods.
The jury, without leaving their seats,
under instructions OF Judge Cheney, ac-
quilted Dolan. On motion of the Dis
trict- Attorney, the case against DAILY
was then also dismissed. The boys had
been in Jail 40 days.

Downing street that the foreign Office
regretted to inform the inquiring Mex
lean secretary that Captain Scott was
dead, having succumbed to the effect Of
a mid summer journey to India. 1t
was, OF course, impossible to proceed
against dead man, and so the matter
was dropped. 1t and the deceased Cap
tain, however, have been revived by the
receipt of letters from him by friends
in Ensenada; letters which were dated
a week or more after the time said by
Her Majesty's foreign Office to have
been the occasion of the officers demise.
These letters were not spirit commune
cations, and were neither dated from
Hades or Paradise, but from India.
Somebody, evidently, has prevaricated,
so to speak mildly.

FIVE ACRES ENOUGH.
A Little Ranch Paid for Out of the
CrOD.

Crop.
Some people tumble into good thing
and then have difficulty in realizing how
we'll off they are. Such man was a
resident OF Pasadena, who had five acres
of land near Lamanda Park offered him
some time ago by its owner, who had to
go to the east, for $500 an acre. The
land was set out to deciduous fruits, and
had on it a neat little house, but it had
no water right. The bargain was de-
clined, and the owner said, "Well, you
take the place and take care of it for the
crop; if you can sell it for me all right,
and if you cannot all right" and off he
went. The Pasadena man took good
care of the place and some weeks ago
fruit buyers began to make him offers
for the crop, and he changed his mind
about buying, and sent to his friend in
the east the purchase price, paying for
the place out of the cash that he received
for the fruit, and having enough left
over to keep him comfortable for year
besides.
Mr.. N. G. Carter of Carterhia told this
story to HERALD man yesterday, but
it is true just the same.

ROBERT S. PLATT.
He Hands in That Report
on Tax Deeds.
But He Positively Refuses To
Pungle Up.
The Supervisors Resolve to Gust
Him.
And Instruct F. P. Kelley to Take the
Steps Necessary to Remove
Him From Office.

The board of supervisors was in Sec
ret session yesterday morning and with
them was closeted the district attorney.
They were calculating what they should
do with unruly r. S. Plat, the county
tax collector who refuses to "pungle up''
that tax-deed money which he says he
holds in trust.
If he comes this trust" business on
them for the purpose OF "riling" the
board, he will have the satisfaction OF
knowing that he has succeeded. But
they are getting back ON him in great
shape.
During the secret session the report of
Mr.. Platt, SO anxiously expected by the
board, was received.
1t shows that during his incumbency
1,010 applications were made, 800 were
issued and afterwards of that number
" were allowed to be withdrawn. Mr..
Platt further reports that he deposited
with the county treasurer in 1889 the
sum of $685. and in 1890 $3.50, a total of
$1,269.
Mr.. Platt further stated that he has
1912 on hand which he would refuse to
pay to the treasurer, holding that he is
merely trustee for those who placed
the money in his hands. He was re-
quested by the board to pay this sum
into the treasury, and on his refusal
Supervisor Davis made the following
resolution:
"Whereas, it appears that R.
S. Plat, county tax collector, had in his
hands 1912 on the LIST day of August
1890, moneys collected by him for tax
deeds in his official capacity, belonging
to. the county of Los Angeles; and
Whereas, he has failed and refused and
still refuses to pay the same
over to the county treasury; therefore,
Resolved, that the district attorn ey be
and is hereby instructed to commence
legal proceedings forthwith for the col
lection of said money and be it further
Resolved, that the district attorney be
requested to institute proceedings
forthwith to remove the said R. S. Platt
from Office as county tax collector under
section ~ of the penal code, and to take
such other proceedings as he shall be
advised is proper in the premi SEES.
The resolution was carried.
Chairman Perry said to HERALD re-
porter that Mr.. Platt should have col
lected in advance So for each tax deed
applied for, which would have brought
the total to $1,000. Mr.. Platt, however,
has heretofore intimated that in a good
many cases he did not make the pay
ment compulsory on application for
deeds and consequently collected moth
ing when the applications were with
drawn.

FILIBUSTER CAPTAIN SCOTT.
Officially Said to be Dead, but He
Writes Letters,

Captain Scott, of Her Majesty's Royal
Engineer corps, was, until recently, the
manager of the International company's
affairs at Ensenada. When the scheme
of the San Diego journalistic filibusters
to capture the peninsula was exploited
by Los Angeles newspaper man, Cap
tain Scott, who had OPPORTUNITY left for
England to rejoir his regiment, was
found to have been very energetic
conspirator. A short time ago the Mex
lean government made demand
on the British authorities for
Captain Scott's arrest and trial on
charge of conspiring against the Repub-
lie, and in due time the reply came from

trespassing feline through the door, but

better way of escaping the rising temper
OF the irate man. 1t looked cautiously
about, as il to avoid stepping on the pros.

Finally its eyes caught sight Of a tree.
A projecting limb hung pretty low. and
here the cat thought to find place of
safety. 1t gave one leap, and no doubt
was the most disgusted cat in Portland
when 1t learned by cad experience, that
the tree was on the canvas. Ii picked
itself up and slowly skunk through the
