AFRAID OE PARNELL.
William O'Brien Urged Not to Submit to
the Irish Chieftain.

William O'Brien Urged Not to Submit to
the Irish Chieftain.
LONDON, Dec. 81. Some of Mr.. O'Brien's
intimate friends confess their anxiety as
to the result of Mr.. Parnell's conference
with him in Paris. "a:
Mr.. O'Brien's anxiety to see an Rp8hut
to the present disastrous state 0&RMKiHk
in Ireland is so great that it ID feAEed
that he may be unconsc1ously int1UAuGHd
by arguments seeming to point to an
honorable and practicable basis Of recon
ciliation, which will hereafter prove to
have been misleading.
These apprehensive friends pay the
tribute to Mr.. Parnell's responsiveness
involved in the belief that he is capable
of making the worse appear the better
reason in such q degree as to possibly
swerve even so firm patriot as Mr..
O'Brien from the course which he has
laid down for himself while free from
the personal influence of his former
leader.
Others, however, who are on equally
close terms of intimacy with Mr.. O'Brien,
assert. that nothing can induce him to
accept any compromise which would in
clude Mr.. Parnell's retention of the act
ual or nominal leadership, and thus pre-
vent the Gladstonians from continuing
their home rule programme. The Free
mans journal has for a few days past
been pouring fulsome praise upon Mr..
O'Brien, and the editor of the paper was
almost the first man to greet him on his
arrival in France, having been deputed
as Mr.. Parnelrs forerunner to arrange
the conference.
1t is evident that the Parnellites view
Mr.. O'Brien's attitude as the most vital
question of the hour for them. The
anti-Parnellites place hardly less stress
upon this point, and they have not neg
lected to urge him to remain steadfast
| in his heretofore expressed decision
against Mr.. Parnell.

told to stand aside. At the close Of his
examination the defense rested its case,
and the prosecution proceeded to intro
duce it's rebuttal testimony.
Several physicians were examined as
experts in obstetrics and unani-
mously agreed that DR.. Place made a
rash statement in being so positive
after an examination made two months
subsequent to the alleged occurrence.
This closed the case, which, after a
brief argument, was intrusted to the
jury at O'Clock. After celebrating for
forty-fve minutes the jurors filed into
court, and the foreman announcing that
they had agreed, returned verdict OF
guilty, but expressed the hope that the
court would show clemency towards the
defendant, in view of his youth. Brooks
did not evince any feeling when the
verdict was announced, but apparently
took deep interest in the polling of the
jury, which was done at the request Of
his counsel. His mother, however, was
completely overcome, and wept bitterly
as her son was escorted from the court
room to Jail to await sentence, and il
was evident that she had been confident
OF his acquittal.
The probabilities are that when he
appears for sentence on Monday next he
will receive the minimum penalty, five
years imprisonment.

CROSS ROAD EXTENSION.
Some Explanations of Peculiar Dis
patch Published Yesterday.

The news that the Cross road will be
extended to the ocean now comes in
roundabout fashion from Chicago and
st. Louis. The statement was pub
lished in the telegraphic report OF the
HERALD of yesterday that company
had been incorporated under the laws
of Illinois, to be known as the "Cali-
fornia Improvement Company" The
projectors are number of wealthy st.
Louis capitalists, chief among whom are
Messrs. Hobart and Kerens, whose
capital went toward the building of the
Los Angeles, Pasadena and Glendale
road. 1t is admitted that the purpose
of the formation of the company is the
extension of this road, and Mr.. Hobart
is reported to have said that the eXten-
sion would go to the sea.
Having told this much of the story
straight enough, the original writer OF
the dispatch goes on to tell what is be-
lieved in st. Louis about the intentions
of the company. 1t appears that the
people who do the "believing'' are not
particularly we'll informed on California
railroad matters, or for that matter on
the geography of this coast. The ex-
preston used by Mr.. Hobart, "to the
sea-" is translated to mean to San Fran
cisco, whereas it is known perfectly well
here to mean San Pedro. No one who
was informed on the situation
ever for moment imagined
that the Los Angeles, Pasadena
and Glendale road is to be built north to
San Francisco except as it may ulti-
mately be made to form a link in some
system having termini in Salt Lake, San
Francisco and San Pedro. The dispatch
goes on to talk about the Santa Fe in
connection with the affair, evidently
mixing up it's acknowledged plan to
build to San Francisco with the forma-
tion of this new company. 1t is of course
not impossible that the Santa Fe would
be quite willing to get hold of a line to
San Pedro to cut into the Southern Pa
cific's monopoly of traffic in that quarter,
but they would hardly purchase the
Cross road, which is now nothing but a
line between Glendale and this city, to
accomplish this end.
The important feature of the dispatch
is the fact that the formation of the
company puts an end to all doubts-if
any existed-of the purpose of the Los
Angeles, Pasadena and Glendale Com
pany to extend their line to the ocean.
According to the statement of ex-Mayor
Workman and Major Burke, however,
the attempt will not be made unless
some assistance is given in the matter OF
securing the right-of-way.

CRIMINAL NOTES.

In the township court yesterday Jo-
seph Catanio, captain of the schooner
Euphemia, appeared before Justice Saw
age for arraignment upon the charge OF
having obtained money under false pre-
lenses. The complainant, Miguel Mira
mon, who is the owner of the vessel,
alleges that between the dates of May
18th and July I'd last, Catanio repre-
sented that while en- voyage from Ense-
NADIA to Sac Francisco, he purchased
supplies at intervening ports of the total
value of $139, and obtained this sum
from Miramon's agents upon such rep
resentation. 1t has since been asceT-
tanned by Miramon, however, that no
such supplies were purchased by
Catanio, and that he had been swindled
out of said sum, whereupon he caused
the captains arrest, with the result
that the mariner has been placed under
bonds IN the sum of $500, and his exam
ination will be set at some future date
to be agreed upon between his counsel
and the district attorney.

him with having admitted minors to his

Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Clark and a
colored girl named Mollie Searls were
arrested on complaint of w. L. Elsea, a
bus driver, who charged item with

yesterday; but all three were subse-
quently released on ball. The charge is
believed to be groundless as regards the
Clarks, as their standing in the COM
munity in which they live is unim-
peachable.

DEMOCRATIC MEETING.
A New Club Organized--Several
Speeches Made,

A large number of Democrats assem-
bled at Kearney hall, on Seventh street,
below Alameda, last night, for the pur-
pose Of organizing Democratic club.
H. Richmond was elected president and
James Butler vice-president. Captain
G. A. Richards was elected secretary,
and Judge E. H. Gordon, John Kearney
and T. J. Barry were appointed to draw
up bylaws. A. McNally introduced
Judge Redick, who made a ringing
speech, which was we'll received. M. F.
Stiles, in spirited speech, outlined the
policy of the Democratic party--na-
tional, state and city, and convinced the
working men that the Democratic party
was the friend of the people. Judge
Gordon severely scored the council for
the manner in which it had treated
their part of the city. Nothing but a
two-room school house, no water to put
out fires and high taxes were what they
had secured from the present council.
Andrew McNally made a few well-chosen
remarks, after which the meeting
adjourned till next Friday night.

A SUCCESSFUL INSTRUCTOR
Henry Suder, of Chicago, Visiting
Friends in This City.


Henry Suder, who twelve years ago
occupied the position of instructor for
the Turn Verein Germania of this city,
is now visiting in Los Angeles. His
home at the present time is in Chicago,
where he serves the educational depart
ment of the city in a very important
capacity. He is superintendent Of
instruction Of physical culture in the
public schools.
Mr.. Suder went to Chicago in 1879,
and was made director of the Turn
Germinde, an organization there which
is practically the same as the Turn
Verein Germania of this city. In 'S5 it
was decided to try the experiment
of introducing physical culture in the
public schools and Mr.. Suder was placed
in charge. The experiment was at first
tried in only four schools. A year later
it was introduced into all the grammar
schools. Eight men were employed as
instructors. Two years later it was ex-
tended to the primary schools, with the
addition of four more teachers. The
high schools were included in the sys-
tenn last year, and the corps increased to
its present size of sixteen instructors, of
which Mr.. Suder is the superintendent.
The way the instruction has been ex-
tended into all parts of the public school
system shows the success which has at
tended Mr.. Suder's work. 1t has ceased
to be an experiment and has become an
established factor in the education of the
youth of Chicago.
The great Lake City rejoices in the ex-
istence OF twenty-eight societies resem-
bling the Turn Verein of this city, so
that the physical culture of the German
American population of Chicago lis we'll
provided for.
Mr.. Suder will remain in the city a
couple of days longer. He has many
old friends here who we're glad to meet
