not an lnfrequent occurrence, it is not
astonishing that the widest theories
have been advanced, and that people
fancy that, perhaps, the woman has

they may have been both robbed and

What Appears the Result of
Bradfield's Trial.
The Prosecution Closes Their
Argument,
And the Case Was Given to the Jury
Yesterday Afternoon.
District Attorney McLachlan's Address
The Exhibits Locked Up with
the Jury-No Verdict Last
Night.

The arguments had all been delivered,
the instructions read, the bailiff sworn
and the jury locked up to consider their
verdict in the murder trial of Mason
Bradfeld before the hour of 7 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. The last day of
the trial was no less interesting than
any preceding one in this celebrated
case, and during the course of the
afternoon there was not even standing
room in Judge Smiths courtroom. The
crowd in attendance, though composed
principally Of men, contained many
ladies who take great interest in the
case through personal friendship for the
defendant or his mother, and 80 great
was the general desire to see the princi-
pal actors in this legal drama and watch
their movements during the clos
ing hours of the case that fully one
half of the spectators stood for hours in
the stuffy courtroom, forgetting their
fatigue in the absorbing interest they
took in the result of the trial.
Attorney w. H. Shinn took up the
argument for the defense yesterday
forenoon, which had been dropped the
evening before by Judge Carpenter, and
made an impassioned appeal to the jury
for mercy. The attorneys address was
considerable of a surprise to those who
have watched the case closely, he hav-
ing assumedsthat the killing OF Dye was
justifable on the grounds of self-defense
"a theory which was thought to have
been abandoned by the defence. Mr..
Shinn's speech was startling one in
many respects. He dwelt at length on
Dyes character; upon his threats
against Bradfield's life and his assault
upon the defendant in Linde's store,
and, having worked himself up to a
pitch of excitement, said Gentlemen
of the jury, Mate Bradfield had right
to shoot Joe Dye in the back, sane or
insane" This created a small sized
sensation.
Mr.. Shinn dwelt at length on Dyes
openly expressed enmity to Bradfeld.
He laid great stress upon the many
threats testified to as having fallen from
the dead mans lips, and came to the
conclusion that the defendant had a
moral right to kill his enemy. Under
ordinary circumstances, said the attor-
ney, these threats would have been con-
sldered the mere vaporings of buffer,
d CoWdlu dHu Ouiiy, UuJ Will Dye IL
was different. When he said he in
tended to kill man he usually did it.
He had already killed three men in this
state, and boasted that he had planted
them all the way from Texas to the Pa
cifc; therefore Bradfeld had right to
fear him. The defendant was bounded
to death by the man, knowing not what
moment would be his last, and finally,
as means of preserving his own life,
he had taken that of his enemy.

fight that is being made against him by
respectable Republicans in his own

Wilson Road Projected.
Tie latest railroad gossip is as to the
why and wherefore of the Terminal
road building a branch to Alamitos bay
The alleged reason is that the line to
the bay will be extended to Santa Ana,
but there is no good reason why line
to Santa Ana from Long Beach should
go to Alamitos. 1t is surmised that the
old-time plan to make Alamitos COM
mercial shipping point is to be revived.
Inside and Immediately outside of the

because they expect to get business

THE TURN OF THE GOLD TIDE.

The last circular of Henry Clews &
Co., dated at New York. July 18th,
reads more like a political pronuncia-
miento than financial outgiving. 1t
concerns itself largely with the renewal
of the dreibund-which we regret to see
it spells driebund,-and the visit of the
Emperor Wilhelm to England. It ac-
cepts the fact that Salisbury's secret
agreements with the German kaiser will
bind the English people, which is per-
haps about as foolish an assumption as
that those of Humberto would bind the
Italian people, or those of Franz josef
the nightly mixed empire of Austria,
at . real pinch of war. But, waving
the International value of Clews & Co. IS
speculations, it will interest great
many of our readers to learn their con-
illusions, and we therefore give them:
It. would seem reasonable to antici-
pate that, after the first natural express
sions of chagrin and retaliation from
;; Russia and France, the political situa-
tion of Europe will assume more set
tied and pacific aspect. Public opinion
A6 l0Ciy W OOAlOluNO JAdt LCW Su6t d4-
tees for an enduring peace have been
won; and that assumption will remove
the most powerful obstacle that now ex-
lists to confidence in financial affairs.
The cause that above all others has Grip
pied the larger movements of enterprise
and has induced the European kings of
finance to hold their resources within
ready reach has been the fear that each
recurring spring might find the leading
powers in the throes OF great European
conflict. Whatever abates that paralyz-
ing fear makes for confidence in financial
circles, and for the achievement of the
political and economic reforms that are
now pressing upon every European gov
eminent. If these inferences are reason
able, it is permissible to hope that the
events of the last few days may infuse
into European finance new confidence
and check the discouragements which
disasters of last fall have spread over
every branch OF enterprise in every
transatlantic centre of finance and COM
merce.
Getting down to domain which Mr..
Clews probably understands better than
he does international politics, he is
found on his native heath in the follow
ing. which is doubtless solid wisdom:
The home influences affecting the
stock market show no material changes.
No variations in the wheat crop have
arisen to modify the original estimates
of output. The railroads maintain their
late rate of earnings. Money continues
to flow hither from the interior, though
in lighter volume; and the banks keep
mp their reserves at about double the
surplus of the last two years; while the
exports of gold seem to have virtually
ceased. To this extent the situation is
favorable to a recovery of activity at
later stage.
The fact that the export of gold has
virtually ceased from the United States
means that we shall. l.shortly see it pour
ing into this country like a mill race.
The wheat crops of both France and
Russia are lamentably sholt; which
means, as to the United States, to quote
tho refrain of popular song, "We're
