A TRIO OF SUSPECTS,
Whom Judge Cravens Thinks are
None Too Good.
One of Them Held to Answer for AS
sault to Murder, and the Other
Two as Witnesses.

j. f. Baldwin, the man accused of
thrusting the blade of pocket-knife into
the abdomen of William Markee last Sat-
urday morning, was examined in the
Police Court yesterday on charge of
assault to murder.
Markee and his two companions who
were present when the difficulty occurred
sWore that Baldwin and another man
kept following them early last Saturday
morning, and that when they remon-
strated Baldwin stabbed Markee in the
stomach.
A man named Mclaughlin, who hap
pened to be with Baldwin that morning.
told story very different from that of
the prosecuting witnesses. He said he
met Baldwin shortly before midnight on
Friday night in the Lafayette Saloon,
and he and Baldwin were asked up to
drink by man who was very much in
toxicated. About fifteen minutes later.
as they were walking down the street,
they noticed the same man coming ont Of
restaurant. AS soon as he got outside
the door Markee and his two compan-
ions, whose names were Brown and
ADorIgo, endeayored to get hold of him
and lead him away
The witness and Baldwin suspected
that the crowd intended robbing the man
and they followed them to Second street.
between l and j. Markee here turned
around and wanted to know why Bald
win was following him. The latter made
some reply, and Markee struck him in
the face.
Baldwin had pocket-knife in his hand
and as MarlIee went to strike a second
blow Baldwin thrust his arm forward and
stuck the knife blade into Markets
stomach. The parties all arrived at the
Police Station at about the same time,
and four of the men were locked up.
Baldwin told similar story to that of
Mclaughlin.
II think there's something behind all
this matter" said Judge Cravens, land
I'll have to hold the defendant to an
swer."
The witnesses for the prosecution were
also placed under $500 bonds each, to in
sure their appearance at the trial. Bald
wins bond was fixed at 81, 500.
The fact that nothing was said about the
watch which was thrown away by one of
the party on the way to the jail, and which
was afterward found by Night Jailer
Clark, gives rise to the suspicion that all
the parties had been engaged in some
crooked work.
ITS best to keep them all in JAIL" re-
marked Judge Cravens after the exam
ination was concluded.

LANES ILL LUCK.
He Claims That He Is a Victim of
Circumstances.
Convicted of a Theft Which it Now
Appears He Did Not Commit
A Rehearing Asked For.

Even though a sentence of but forty
DAYS was imposed upon William Lane
last week by Judge Cravens, who adj
judged the defendant guilty of petit lar
ceny, still Lane thinks he ought not to be
in jail at ALL
The testimony on which Lane was con-
vlcted was to the effect that he had stolen
roll of blankets from the depot. The
evidence on the part of the prosecution
appeared to be positive enough to war
rant a conviction, but many of those who
heard Lane tell his story in court were
inclined to believe him. He claimed
that he knew nothing of the theft, and if
the blankets were found in his room he
was ignorant Of the manner in which they
came there.
Judge Cravens found the defendant
guilty, but subsequently Lane had a pri-
vate consultation with the Judge in
which he earnestly declared that he was
not guilty, and had been made victim
OF circumstances. All that the Judge
could say was that Lane was unfortunate
II he was innocent.
Yesterday in the Police Court A. J..
Bruner appeared in Lanes behalf and
flled petition for rehearing, and an
affidavit sworn to by H. A Golf, book
keeper in this city.
In his affidavit Golf says he happened
to be IN the Police Court on the day that
Lane was tried, but did not stay to hear
Lanes evidence. He read about the case
atterward, and this called to his mind a
conversation which he overheard in the
depot last Saturday. A man who wore a
white SLOUGH hat and dark Prince Albert
coat, and who had heavy black NOUS
tache and black hair, remarked to sec
ond party that he was witness for the
prosecution in the Lane case. The sec
ono party approached closer to him and
said:
We'll, you got out lucky! You ought
to have been convicted yourself instead of
LaneI ~
This angered the first party, and the
train on which he was to leave was just
starting from the depot. He Jumped
aboard, and, turning around, remarked:
Wen, Pm the man who sent for those
blankets ~
Mr.. Bruner made short argument in
support OF his petition for a rehearing,
and Judge Crayens took the matter under
Amusement until to-day.

JUSTICE COURT JUDGEMENTS.
Tardy Foreign Creditors Not Barred
in Insolvency Cases.

Tardy Foreign Creditors Not Barred
in Insolvency Cases.
Justice of the Peace Devine rendered
three decisions yesterday.
In the case of the American Hosiery
Company against Fred. Mason for S237 10.
he gave judgment for the plaintiff. Mason
went into insolvency some time ago, and
after he had gone through the courts, and
had been discharged, the plaintiff came
in with a claim for the amount above
stated. 1t was too late to include the
claim in the insolvency, so the corpora
ton sued Mason direct. Mason opposed
the claim, but the court held that the dis
charge of an insolvent in this State is not
q bar TO the claim of a foreign creditor.
The discharge affects only creditors in this
State.
The Justice decided the case of John
Conlan VS.. Perry Curtis for S299, being
for services rendered, and the purchase
price of some horses and vehicles, in
favor Of the plaintiff.
Judgment is given for the defendant in
the suit of Flora Parker VS.. Constable
Frank Swift. The suit was to repleyin
some cows which had been attached as
the property Of J. A. Parker. The plain
tiff attempted to show that she owned the
animals.

SOAKING RAINS.
Slow to Start, But They Get Here
Just the Same.
A Storm That Gladdens the Hearts o
Farmers and AIiners-Snow Fall
ing at the Summit.

Rain fell all day yesterday on "the
hill" along the line of the Central Pacific
road as far as Blue Canyon. Above that
station there was light fall of snow.
The snow-plows were not needed to keep
the track clear, however, and all trains
were reported on time.
The Weather Bureaus reports show at
last rapidly falling barometer, with in
creasing southerly winds, and clouds low
ana moving rapidly from the southeast,
which is usually a very good indication
OF a protracted and continuous storm,
but whether this one will continue can
not be foretold with the meager reports
received by the Observer in charge.
The rainfall for last season up to date
was 7.40 inches, distributed as follows:
September, so of an inch; trace in Oc-
tober; none in November; 1874 inches in
December; SO of an inch in January;
2.l3 inches up to and including the 18th
of February.
The rainfall for the present season has
been distributed as follows: Septembe
10 OF an inch; October, 10 of an inch; No
vember, AS Of an inch; December 3.28
inches; January, LIS, and February, up
10 and including yesterday evening, 1.S2
1ilSASS, llldhlLlE O.0A Inches IOf LllS sea-
son, as against 7.40 inches to an equal
date last year.
This shows the present season to be but
few hundredths of an inch behind the
one of last year. Then, again, the pres
cnt storm is a warm one, thereby
melting the SHOWS at a higher elevation
than would be done were it a cold one;
consequently, if it continues and becomes
an extended, heavy and warm one, we
are liable to have a rapid rise in the river
February 4, 1881, there were high
waters and broken levees, the river then
being 26 feet. Since then it has reached
2 feet, which occurred on December u,
1889.
The highest and lowest temperatures
Yesterday were So and so, with variable
winds and showery weather.
The barometrical readings at 5 A. NJ.
and P. NJ. were 1899 and 1892 inches,
showing fall of OF Of an inch in twelve
hours.
The highest and lowest temperatures
one year ago yesterday were $50 and 400.
with IA of an inch of rain, and one year
ago to-day $50 and 35o, with no precipita-
lion.
The rainfall for the storm of yesterday
up to P. NJ was "a of an inch, making

A RUINED LIFE.

AN Abandoned Creature Found Dying
Amid Chinatown Ruins.
Fritz Springer, man about 40 years Of
age, and OF the class known as "Chinese-
gin Flends," was brought to the Police
station yesterday in a dying condition
from the effects of the liquor. He was
found by Hi Greer in an old house in
Chinatown and brought to the Receiving
Hospital in the latter's ambulance.
Springer had evidently been drinking
very heavily and lay down in his stupor
in the old deserted house When brought
to the Police Station his eyes were wide
open, but he was unable to move a mus
Gle.
1t was not thought that his condition
was serious, and the officers were sur
prised to find him dead in the hospital a
couple of hours afterward.
Coroner Clark took charge of the body.
