ACCUSED OF PERJURY.
NJ. III. DOlan SwOre Falsely on Sui.
iivan's Trial for Murder.

Michael 81. Dolan was arrested yesterday
on charge of perjury. With William Sui
llvan he was arrested early in May, $780, for
the crime of murder. They were accused
of assaulting and beating to death Gustav
Berner. shoemaker who kept shop on
the Mission road. The three became in
voved in a quarrel in Mission-road inn,
and Bernsr was knocked down and received
fracture of the skull that caused his death.
The trial Of Sullivan and Dolan on the
charge of murder ended In the formers con-
peal to the Supreme Court in behalf OF Sui
livan secured him new trial. His second
trial ended in his acquittal in Depart
ment II of the Superior Court yesterday.
Upon his arrest it appears that Dolan made
a statement in the presence of three wit
nesses, Detective Hogan, Officer Judge and
defendant Sullivan. and he said that he had
heard Sullivan say In saloon that he (Sulll-
YAM had just killed man.
1t seems that Sullivan had previously
made statement duplicating Dolan in the
killing of Berner, and for this reason Dolan
said he "sQuealed'' to revenge himself on
his co-defendant During Sullivan's second
trial Doan refused 10 repeat his former
testimony, and sw0re most positively that
he had never made any statement in refer
ence to the case in the presence of any
officers.
The alleged perjury was committed on
Monday, but DOlan was not arrested at the
time because the officers knew that such
action would tend to prejudice the jury.
afternoon, when Detective Hogan took him
into custOly.

WINTER TOURISTS.
Good Prospects for Heavy Travel
During the Coming Season.

There is every prospect of heavy tourist
travel to California during the coming
winter, and the agencies are preparing for a
very large number of overland excursions.
Last season the Pennsylvania Company en-
tered the Pacific Coast excursion field for
the first time. 1t brought out about 500
people in four palatial trains. These tour
lists have evidently been busy talking of
their trip since they went back. for the COM
pany's agents have already lad more in
quiries about prospective trips than there
were tickets sold last season. This is the
statement of Assistant General Passenger
Agent Boyd to Pacific Coast Agent Be Dell.
The Pennsylvania will surely run five ex-
cursions out here, and possibly eight, or
twice as many as in 1890. The first will
leave Philadelphia on January 18Th. The
good thing about these Pennsylvania trips,
in the minds OF many proud San Fran
ciscans, is that they bring the sight-seers
directly here, permitting them atterward to
wander at will about the State. A new
feature for the coming season will be an
allowance of six months time for all trav-
elers by the last excursion IN April.
The Raymond excursion organization had
eight regular trips, besides several parties
for Mexico, with California incidentally
About 1000 PEOPLE were brought here BY
these trains. During the coming sraSon
there will be at least eight trips aud posi-
bly, more. Agents throughout New En-
gland are already booking prospective tour
lists. The first party will leave Boston on
the 10Th prox.
