MOVED THE FENCE.

Trouble Between the Lohmeyers and
Cohens in Court.
The troubles of the Lohmeyers and the
Cohens were aired in the Police Court
yesterday.
Mr.. Cohen, it appeared, sold Lohmeyer
a piece of property, but, according to
Lohmeyer's statement and that of sur
veyor, it was two feet too narrow. Upon
making the discovery Lohmeyer proceed
ed at once to move the line fence over to
where he believed it belonged. But he
met with vigorous opposition on the
part of the CohenS. Mrs. Cohen drove
him and bis assistants off with a pistol,
and then Mr.. Cohen had him arrested for
malicious mischief
After the testimony had all been heard
yesterday Judge Cravens rebuked the
parties for bringing the case into the
Police Court. 1t should have been civil
suit for ejectment, he said. The dispute
over the ground cut no figure in the case,
as it now presented itself to him-he be-
ing only called upon to decide whether or
not malicious mischief had been done.
In his opinion Lohmeyer had no right to
take the law into his own hands, and was
in consequence guilty.
The court then ordered Lohmeyer to
pay a fine of SO.

c. F. Klunder of 9O7 Broadway, New

Albert Davies stepped forward and de-
livered the following address:
'DeGr Teacher: Separations like the

MAY BE MURDER.
One of the Victims of Leara's Knife
Said to Be Dying. j
Judge Cravens Warns the Witnesses
Not to Absent Themselves
Valenzuela's Condition. /

Pedro Leara's knife practice of Sunday
is liable to result more seriously than was
at first thought
The young Mexican, it will be remem-
bered, got into a difficulty at tamale
mandatory at Fourth and N streets,
and began stabbing people right and left
Four of his victims went to the Receiving
Hospital for repairs.
The first person who ran foul of Pedro's
knife was an old man named Esteyan
Valenzuela, he being jabbed in the breast
and back. The wounds were not consid-
cred dangerous at the time, and the old
man went home to resume his duties at
the tamale house. But it appears now
that the wound in the breast penetrated
the lung, and the victim has undergone a
relapse, from which he may not recover.
He is lying at his home in critical con-
dition.
THE CASE IN COURT.
When Leara's case was called in the
Police Court yesterday. City Attorney
Hart informed Judge Cravens Of Nalen-
zuela's condition and asked that the case
be continued. The doctors had informed
him, he said, that it would be some time
before the old man could leave his bed,
if he ever left it at all. 1t would be use
less to examine Leara now on charges of
assault TO murder, because a charge of
murder might have to be placed against
him.
Judge Cravens continued Leara's case
until the Goth inst. Ia recognizing the
witnesses to be present without further
notice on that date, the Judge said it had
been intimated to him that some of the
witnesses We're reluctant about appearing
i'll court and testifying. He warned them
all not to be absent on that date, If they
did not want to get into trouble, and they
all promised to be there.
NOT THE FIRST TINE.
Leara is still in custody, and will not
now be admitted to bail pending develop
ments in the old mans condition.
Leara is only twenty years of age, yet
this is not the first time he has tried to
carve his fellow beings. People who
know him intimately say that when in
his cups he is veritable maniac, and
will not hesitate to use his knife on any
one who crosses him. 1t is said that
about three months ago he created a
cOmmotion OH lower L street one night
by chasing Mexican woman for several
blocks in q vain endeavor to plunge q
dirk into her person. She managed to
elude him, however.
The young man seems to be quite re-
pentant now, and says he did not mean
to harm any body. He says he was sc
hdruuk Sunday that he did not know
what he was doing.
