TEE HETER CASE.
Governor Markham Hears Arguments
Pro and Con.
Judge Wallace VIII Not Allow Heyer
to be Taken East Until After
Next Mondays Hearing.

Governor Markham listened to argyll
ments yesterday on both sides of the
question as to whether or not requisition
papers should be issued to the officer
from New Jersey who is desirous of re-
turning to the East with one John Heyer
as his prisoner.
Heyer is charged with embezzlement
i'll New Jersey. 1t is alleged that he was
trusted employe of wealthy man, who
signed many blank checks and allowed
Heyer to fill in the amounts. Heyer. it
is charged, drew coin until he was Sc, ,125
ahead of W hat he should have drawn. and
then LETT for California.
EX-Judge Wheeler represented the
State of New Jersey, and Carroll Cook.
for Heyer, argued against the granting of
the papers. His claim was that the COM
plaint did not allegn facts sufficient to
constitute cause of action, and that
Heyer was not fugitive from New Jer-
sey. The checks we've cashed in New
] ork, and he was not, therefore, fleeing
from New Jersey justice.
The Governor took the matter under
consideration.
1t is also said that the charge and SUBJ
sequent arrest of Heyer is piece of per-
secutlon on the part of relatives. and in
tended as punishment for his having
dared to marry a deserving young lady
against their wishes. At all events
Heyer was registered at the Palace Hotel
in his own name, and did not appear to
be making any effort to elude arrest.
On Monday next Judge Wallace viii
hear Heyer's petition for release under
the writ Of habeas corpus, and until then
the New Jersey officer cannot take him
hence.

FASSLER AGAIN.
The Husband of the Murdered Woman
Wants a Homestead.
He Acknowledges That She Possessed
the Property Before He Married
Her-The Estate Sued.

Sigmund Fassler, the young husband
/ Of Eleanor Fassler, the aged woman who
was mysteriously murdered several
months ago at her saloon, Twenty first
and Y streets, is still determined to get
! hold of some Of the deceased's estate.
1t will be remembered that in her will
| Mrs. Fassler left all of her property to
some friends who had been kind to her,
and provided nothing for the husband.
| He contested the matter in court recently,
! but failed to break the will.
Fassler then commenced proceedings
to have set apart as homestead for him
solf-as is permitted by law under GER
tain circumstance house and lot near
the saloon where the deceased was mur-
dered, and which is portion of the es-
tate. The matter came on for hearing
before Superior Judge Van Fleet yester-
day.
Fassler took the witness stand, and in
response to questions from his counsel,
Hiram and Albert Johnson. described
the property he wants, and said that his
wife had no children nor relatives. he
being the only heir, were it not for the
intervention of the will.
Have you any property of your
oWn?'' was asked.
NO." replied Fassler, ''but I would
like some"
Charles T. Jones, counsel for the ex-
ecutor and devisees of the estate cross
examined Fassler. The latter said he had
not been living with his wife for some
time prior to her death. She had in that
time commenced suit for divorce against
him. The property for which he was
suing belonged to her before he married
| her. When living with her, Fassler
sometimes attended to the saloon, and at
other times hauled gravel for various con-
tractors. He claimed to be farmer, but
the only farming lie had ever done was in
Contra Costa County, where he was en-
ployed OH a ranch as a labOrer.
At the close of Fassler's examination
Judge Van Fleet postponed further hear
ing of the case until next Tuesday.
Susie Harvey filed papers in suit
against Frank d. Ryan. executor of the
Fassier estate, yesterday. She seeks to
foreclose mortgage on a lot belonging to
the estate in the block bounded by o and
2, Twenty-second and Twenty third
streets. Mrs. Fassler had borrowed 81 500
from the plaintiff, and gave her promis-
sorry note secured by the mortgage above
described. The plaintiff also asks that
Philip Driver be appointed as receiver.

GOOD CLUB-WORK.
A Ball Game in Which the Stick Was
Prominent.
Hoffman Was Out of Practice, How.
ever, and the San Tranciscos Did
the Better Batting.

The San Francisco ball players made
Pitcher Hoffman think yesterday that he
had forever lost his knaclz of deceiving
batsmen. In fact, he must have felt
rather embarrassed at his futile attempts
to keep the visitors from hitting the ball;
and then he has been praised so much of
late and stamped as ''the king so often
that he undoubtedly felt that his reputa-
ton has been dealt a severe blow.
There was a secret to it all, however.
Hoffman has not been practicing Of late,
and the result Of the game is certainly a
very torclble reminder to him that his
practice must be kept up if he expects to
do good work. He would not have left a
very favorable impression on Van Hal
tren's mind if the Baltimore Captain had
selected yesterdays work as a sample.
Van is said to be watching him, and ru-
NOR has it that he would like to sign
Spies and Holman next season.
The cranls did not expect BIauvelt to
do any great work, for although he ap-
pears to be an effective pitcher against the
other teams, he is no trick at all for the
Sacramentos 10 handle. The only sur
prise yesterday was HOifman'S poor
work. Had he pitched his usual game,
cOulGSI
easily.
The game, on the part of both teams,
was one Of the Misunderstanding contests
that has been seen III tits city this season.
twice the ball went over the right-field
fence, and on two occasions it went ND
against the back fence, near the flag-pole,
with thump. Hustin, Roberts and Nc
GuIrk rattled the boards on the right
field fence several times, and Cartwright
and Clark shot the sphere out with Such
lightning speed that the tielders were not
anxious 10 block the hits. 1t was regu-
lar cannOnading all around, and honOrs
were even i'll the number OF hits.
There were two home runs in the game.
Reitz made one by lifting the ball over
| the right-field fence, and Cartwright senta
hot Que over GOodenough's head. EIustin
had his batting eye with him, and he
smashed the ball right and left A triple.
q double and a single We're scored to his
credit.
Hassamer played very weak game at
short. He was given five chances. and
erred on three of them. All were on very
easy plays, and the errors were very
costly.
Reitz and McGuirk played we'll in the
infield, and Goodenough and Roberts
gave fine exhibitions Of Outfield work.
McHale caught very well, but his
throwing was poor. His arm was in very
bad condition, and it was almost impoS-
slble for him to throw a ball up to second
| base.
Sweeney did some good outfield work
for the visitors, as did Clark, and SWEET
caught fairly well.
Spies was among the spectators at the
game.
Sheridan umpired excellently, and
there was neither complaint nor cause for
any. Following is the score:

The CIaw-bar Found.

Word came from Colfax yesterday to
G. T. Jones, counsel for the prosecution
in the train-wrecking case, to the effect
that the broken claw-bar used in draw
ing the spikes from the rail had been
found by Section Foreman Cashin.
This bar is understood to have been
made out of a drill stolen from the Rob
erts place, and its recovery is believed to
be of considerable Importance to the pros
ecution.
'The clawbar used in the train wreck
ing near here was found this morning.
1t consists of an old drill, about twenty
inches long, made in very clumsy man
ner and clearly not by professional
blacksmith. 1t was found about $50 feet
from where the rail was taken up. II

debris, and in the spot indicated by AL

officers could lay hands upon him-but for
trying TO perpetrate similar swindle in
San Francisco. 1t appears that his right
name is Henry Haas. He Hesucceeded in
borrowing $500 from the San Francisco
as James y. Blair of Tulare. He gave as
security deeds of trust. The forgery was
not discovered until about month ago
when a statement was sent TO Blair,
which included the $500 loan. He at
once denied the transaction and pro-
nounced the deeds given in trust as for
geries.
The job perpetrated on the Savings
Union was so similar to the one at
tempted here, that President Becllman of
the local bank became convinced that
Haas and Morris We're identical. He
communicated this belief to San Fran
cisco and the result was that dispatch
was received stating that Beckman was
right.
