STILLWBLL VS.. BRUNRR.
The AssembIyman's Demurrer to t.
Complaint Overruled.

Complaint Overruled.
Superior Judge Van Fleet yesterday
overruled the demurrer of the defendant
in the case of Charles j. Stillwel VS..
Elwood Bruner
Stillwell is the reporter who made the
charge that Bruner took S40O for his in
fluence in placing a man on the San
Francisco police force, and his suit is TO
recover the S400 which he says he gave
Bruner.
The court decided that where an illegal
enterprise is entered upon, either party
has right to stop and Withdraw there
from at any time. The court is of the
opinion that plaintiff has a right to re-
cover, and the demurrer is therefore over
ruled, and defendant given ten days to
answer.
