Los Angeles herald., 1890-12-16

Minnie Mccarthy says she joined her
fate with that of Robert NJ. Richardson
on April FOOLS day. 1886.
She is now suing Robert before Judge
Shaw for maintenance.
1t is difficult to tell which one OF the
two was fooled, for Mr.. Richardson in
his answer alleges that Minnie was
girl addicted to light conduct and late
rides on cable cars before they lived to-
gether, and that they never were mar
ried.
Minnie's tale OF woe is in substance
that in 1886 she was sweet six
teen, and evidently of a confding
soon loved Robert Nj. Richardson,
citic railway in San Francisco, where
she resided with her uncle and aunt
On the 1st of April in that year, she
yielded, she states to Roberts warmly
expressed desire, and accompanied him
10 boarding-house, and lived with him
as his wife. She claims that her uncle
hunted her mp and asked Robert if she
was his wife, to which the answer was
yes.
They came to Los Angeles in April or
May, 1886, and took house on Angel
emo Heights, and got into society. There
are number OF people, quite fashion
able people, who remember meeting Mr..
and Mrs. Richardson. 1t may disquiet
these members of the local four hun
dred, to be told that they will have to
appear in court and tell what they know
OF the matter, but such is the cold re-
lentless fact
In the proper course of time Mrs.
Richardson found herself in what is
called ''an interesting condition." and
she says that Dr. X. D. Wise attended
her on the supposition that she was
Mrs. Richardson, de jure, as well as de
facto, and that soon after child put in
it's appearance. Mr.. Richardson, she
claims then sent her on visit to her un-
Gle and aunt in San Francisco, and while
she was there the infant died. She
says her alleged husband kept writing
to her not to return, but she did SO, and
he then declined to live with her any
more, and went to Seattle. She followed
him, and she claims their marital rela-
tions were there renewed. but he soon
again left her and came to Los Angeles.
She says she went to work as clerk,
and saved up money enough to come
here. She is absolutely penniless, and
were it not for the charity of some good
women would be completely helpless.
She brings with her testimonial as
to her good character from people OF the
very highest standing in Seattle. She
is soon to become mother the second
time, as she states in consequence OF her
relations with Richardson in Seattle.
Mr.. Richardson in his answer denies
that any marriage took place, but ad-
mits living with the girl, and, as stated
before, claims that her character was
not above reproach. He is man of
some property, and the girl sues him for
support under the claim that contract
marriage took place.

Various Bills and Resolutions Reported

Other Matters.
Associated Press Dispatches.

WASHINGTON, Dec. Is. The senate
met at 10 O'Clock this morning. Morgan
gave notice that he would call up
Dolph's resolution respecting the abridg-
ment of the right of suffrage tomorrow
morning.
Sanders introduced bill to amend
the silver coinage law, so as to authorize
the secretary of the:treasury to purchase
all the silver bullion offered, at a price
not exceeding$1 for 371.25 grains of pure
silver, and to issue treasury notes in pay
ment therefor.
The first bill on the calendar, for en-
larging the rights of homesteaders on the
public lands, was passed. 1t provides
that when parties settled opposite un-
surveyed lands, and therefore were
obliged to take up less than 100 acres, they
may extend their holdings, not to ex-
ceed 100 acres.
The bill subjecting oleomargarine to
the operation of the state laws, the
Paddock pure lard bill and the Conger
pure lard bill, having come up in their
order, were laid aside, and the senate
proceeded to consideration OF the cleo
tions bill. Colquitt of Georgia, Wilson
of Maryland and Vance of North Caro-
lima spoke at some length against it.
At the close OF Vance's speech, the
vice-president announced the question
to be on the amendment to strike out
the "house to house, clause. A vote
was not reached, however.
Butler spoke in support oil the amend
ment he had suggested several days ago,
providing that the supervisors, canvass
ers and other election officers be re-
garded as ministerial, and not as judic
ial officers.
Hoar opposed the amendment, and
long debate ensued. Before it ended
the senate went int executive session,
and soon adjourned.

THE RAUM INQUIRY
Attorney Lemon Refuses to Answer
Leading Questions.

Attorney Lemon Refuses to Answer
Leading Questions.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-Lemon, the
pension attorney, was before the Raum
investigating committee today. He tes-
titled that he never recommended to
Commissioner Raum the appointment
of any person in his employ. He had
never spoken to Commissioner Raum
about the appointment or promotion OF
any person, and had never directly or
indirectly requested any other person
to secure an appointment from the pen
sion Office. Witness said he had never
endorsed any note for Raum, except one
for 900 in the Bank of the Republic.
Cooper asked how much of Raum's
paper he had discounted, when, and on
whose endorsement.
Lemon emphatically declined to an
swer, on the ground it was none of
Cooper's business, nor was it the bus-
ness of the committee.
In response to further questions,
Lemon stated that Raum never came to
him for his influence to secure the dig
counting of any paper.

the BARRIERS for 81, we now have to
charge 81 .25 for.
1t is often asserted that advances in
prices of imported articles do not affect
people who buy American-made goods.
A remark OF Mr.. Blum's will serve to
throw some light on this theory He
SAYS:
The American manufacturers have
taken advantage of this to advance their
prices, and some lines of goods have
been advanced that were not affected
directly by the bill. Table knives and
butcher knives are under the control of
a combination that keeps them on q
level with foreign goods. There is talk
OF an advance i'll January when the as
sociation meets.
Another Mr.. Blum, of the Anglo
American Crockery company, enlight-
ened the reporter about goods in his
line. He said that the administrative
customs bill had increased the cost of
crockery very materially, and that the
advance was causing considerable con-
fusion and ill-feeling in the trade.
Mr.. Whittier, of Whittier, Fuller &
Co., said that the new clause in regard
to silver-bearing lead ores had advanced
the price of pig lead, (which naturally
has a tendency to advance the price Of
lead products, such as white lead" We
may add that it is well known to painters
that white lead has doubled in price
within the past few months, since the
trust learned definitely that the duty
would not be reduced. Mr.. Whittier
remarked further that the administra-
tive bill had raised the price of artists
paints, which would be 'felt by a class
OF ptople who are usually rather poor"

The Irrigation Bill.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l5.-The committee
on irrigation has agreed in the main to the
bill to authorize the survey OF the arid
lands and their division into irrigation
districts, to be ceded to the states and
territories in which they are situated,
for the purpose of reclamation and set
tlement. The bill will be modelled upon
the measure introduced by Vandever. of
California. 1t will also contain a pro-
vision providing that before state
issues patent to any land within any
district, conflicting claims as to water
rights shall be settled among the con-
tending parties.
