INTERFERING WITH OFFICERS.
Burns and Caldwell Arrested on
Charges by Sheriff Woo1ery.

Pete Burns, of the saloon firm of Clancy Il
Burns, and John Caldwell, night Waterman of
Whitechapel, otherwise known as the "Mayor
of Whitechapel," were arrested yesterday on
warrant sworn out before Justice Neagle by
Sheriff woolery, charging them with interior
ing with an officer in the discharge of his duty.
The trouble occurred Thursday afternoon dur
ing the raid of Whitechapel, when Burns and
Caldwell interfered with Deputy Sherifs Charles
wooery and Noble, and compelled them to
allow two Japanese women whom they were
arresting 10 escape.
The stories of the affair told by the two par
ties do not tally. The deputies tell one story
and Burns and Caldwell another The story of
the deputies, and several witnesses who have
been subpoened in support OF Ii, is about as
follows:
At the first raid on whitechapel Thursday af-
ternoon, all the deputies were armed with war
rants for certain women. While the other dep
uties were in search of other women, Deputies
woolery and Noble went down into slap" alley
and, forcing their way into Japanese house,
found several japanese men and women. The
deputies showed their warrants and placed un-
der arrest two women. The women resisted,
and aided by the other women and jap
anese men, they ran back into the rear of
the honeycomb like structure in an endeavor to
escape The deputies followed. and fearing
they would be knitted by the angry Japs in the
narrow halls they did not wait TO lead the
women OUT, Dut gIApDeu tlcII1 the Wdiss
and literally carried them out under their arms.
They hurried down the hall and were about TO
rush out st the door, when Burns and Caldwell
appeared In the doorway and pushed the depu-
ties back into the room, and Caldwell said:
Leave those women alone Iou can't arrest
them without vou show US your warrants"
The women took time by the forelock and
again escaped. Deputy Noble remained in the
room, while woolery telephoned 10 his brother,
the sheriff. telling him OF the interference. sher-
III woolery Immediately came down and read the
riot act to Caldwell, Burns, and all other per-
sons concerned. The women were again
caught. and this time they were landed in Jail.
Caldwell and Burns deny that they laid hands
on the deputies.
The two men gave bonds shortly after arrest
in the sum OF $50 each for their appearance for
trial in the superior court

deprecated further delay. The question was not
one of law, but OF public policy. Referring to
Mr.. Lewis remarks, he said the entire claim was
only $500; the company had made tho arrange

ron cHorpING WOOD.


Most of the time in Judge Humes department
of the superior court yesterday was taken up IN
the trial OF Watt Haapanoy and Risto Maxi
against Jack Eggert The plaintiffs, who are
Firms, set ND a claim of s3o350 against Eggeri
for chopping wood. Eggert acknowledged tina!
they had chopped the wood, but claimed that
they had agreed to clear tract of land for the
wood on 1t. The Firms, on the other hand,
claimed that Eggert had promised to pay them
el.25 cord for doing the chopping.
Both parties introduced number OF witnesses
who swore to almost opposite facts. The testi
mony OF the witnesses for the plaintiffs seemed
however, to have the most weight with the jury
and short time after the case was left in their
hands they returned verdict for the plaintifs
for the full amount sued for,
