HIS SISTERS NAME.

The Check That Could Not Be Ex-
planned by Fred KOpp.
Fred Kopp was tried in Judge Smith e
court yesterday for forging 500 check
and signing the name OF his sister An
ME Kopp to it.
Thetestimony showed that his sister,
a hard working servant girl about 20
years old, tried to shield her brother,
but the evidence against him was too
plain.
The girl had some money in the Cali
fornia bank and was notified that her
account was overdrawn. She did not
understand it, and her brother, the de
fendant, went with her to the bank to
investigate the matter.
He played innocent and they en-
ployed detective to look it up. He
was finally accused of having drawn the
checks himself, but denied it and at
tempted to make it appear that the
forgeries was committed by some one
who looked like him.
1t was Intellectual, however. and he
was arrested. On the trial yesterday
the boy tried to establish as fact that
his sister had given him authority to
sign the check, and the girl said that
she might have told him that he could.
But the testimony was too strong
against such q theory and the jury 1e-
turned verdict of guilty after it had
been out only few minutes. The time
for the sentence of the defendant was
set for Saturday morning, December
oath.

There was another caucus Yesterday
between the Democratic councilmen.
elect and Mr.. Rowan at the mayor
elects Office, and HERALD reporter
was present. Nothing definite was con.
summated on account of the absence of
Councilman Gaffey.
Councilmen Nickel and Pessel stated
to the reporter that they believed in
putting Democrats in Office wherever
possible. Just then Councilman Innes
made his appearance and endorsed the
other two councilmen's remarks. The
Republican councilmen have had sew
eral capcuses.
1t is definitely arranged that Walter
Moore will be removed as chief of the
fire department; this Councilman
Strohm insists upon The latest report
8 that the friends OF Dan Moriarty are
ushing his claims for the head of the
apartment.
The five Republican members of the
council have selected Democrat en- the
board OF police commissioners who is in
favor OF Chief Glass' retention in office,
and that member is to be Charles For
man, well-known Democrat who was
in the last city convention. Mr.. For
man stated to HERALD reporter yester-
day morning that he was in favor of
keeping C::ief Glass in office, but he was
also in favor of changing the personnel
OF the force to some extent; he did not
admit, however, that he expected to be
or was agreed upon as police commits
sioner. 1t is now safe to state that the
Republican councilmen are doing their
utmost, with good chance of success,
to secure Democrats on the commissions
who will do their bidding.
w. A. Wilson, it is reported, declines
to be one OF the fire commissioners and
has withdrawn in favor of j. X. urn

board Of education in the Third ward.
Mayor-elect Rowan remarked to q
HERALD reporter yesterday that an i'm

soon as Councilman Gaffey returned
from San Francisco.
Superintendent of Streets Watson said
yesterday that be had appointed as his
chief deputy A. T. Stewart, at present q

MRS. BRUNSON GETS A DECREE,
The Celebrated Case Quietly
Comes to an End.
Fred KOpp Found Guilty of Forging
His Sisters Name.
The Proceedings in the Noted Divorce
Case Court NOtes-New Suits
Which Were Filed
Yesterday.

The celebrated divorce suit of Mrs.
Angelina f. Brunson against Judge An
son Brunson was quietly settled during
the noon hour yesterday before Judge
Shaw.
Mrs. Brunson, her mother, Mrs. Laura
A. French and James McLachlan, her
attorney, appeared before the court at
the time mentioned and the case was
taken up. Judge Brunson was not
present himself nor was he represented
by counsel.
The testimony Of the plaintiff and her
mother was taken upon the point of de.
sertion, the only ground upon which
the divorce was asked. Mrs. Brunson
testified as to her husbands desertion,
describing briefly the facts heretofore
published, that over year ago he occu-
pied separate apartments, although they
lived in the BruDson mansion on Grand
avenue. Her testimony was corrobor-
Shaw granted the decree.
1t is understood that by an arrange.
ment outside of court, Mrs. Brunson
Judge Bruneon. The various allegations
in the complaint connecting Mrs. Stone-
man with the case were not brought up
at all in the proceedings.
1t is stated that when Judge Shaw
looked over the complaint and read the
very amorous letter which it was claimed
Mrs. Stonemans had written to Judge
Brunson, that he Immediately ordered
it stricken from the document, stating
that it sh uld not have been inserted,
thus supposedly implying that there was
nothing to support the claim that it was
what the complaint alleged.

on bis or his heirs partsto any indemni

sen, party of the first part.
In witness thereof sworn to and signed
as follows, to-wit
H. A. Thomson.
| CAPT. r. A. FALKENBERG.
MARRIED AS A BARON.
This crazy document was nevertheless
carried out by the signers as far as Mr..
Thomson was concerned, and he fur
nished the sinews of war necessary to
keep the ball rolling.
In view of the signature of "Captain
Dick" to the paper, the marriage license
under which DR.. Deems married him to
the lady who has journeyed all the way
to the Pacific coast, is interesting. The
name he sailed under then is Baron
Richard Alexander Won Falkenberg
Wersick, and the entire list is signed to
the copy which is in the possession of
Mrs. Falkenberg.
"But that is not his real name," she
said to the reporter yesterday. "His
name is really Arthur Krache, and he
was born in Breelau, Germany, where
his parents still reside. He has taken
money from myself and my daughter, so
that we were left in destitute circum-
stances. We succeeded in getting a
small business afterwards and got the
Western Union telegraph station in our
shop, so that we got along. My bus
band kept writing to me, and l saved up
money to come to him. Finally came,
and | thought it was right to 60 at once
to him at Perris, which did. But he
yuo N Oo - . 1~l r
stopped at the hotel and told who was,
there. He left that night"
Mrs. Falkenberg showed the reporter
a telegram from her daughter showing
that she had secured a pass for her
mother from Russell Sage to return
home by steamer, which she expects
shortly to do.
Since her arrival in Los Angeles she
has learned that Captain Dick has be-
gun divorce proceedings against her in
Aberdeen, WASH, his ATTORNEYS being
Messrs. Bush & Selden. He charges
her with desertion, and alleges in the
that they were married in
1888, when the marriage certificate reads
1886.
Mrs. Falkenberg says that Captain
Dick" was never government scout,
was never in the Reil rebellion, and that
be has no title to consideration from
those who love the truth.
Since he left, Mr.. Thomson, who was
30 taken in by the adventurer, has
come on from New York and taken
charge of the mine at Perris. He found
J perfect chaos of accounts, and turned
himself loose with exceeding severity.
Tie is not certain whether the Gold |
Prince mine has future, and has gone
back to New York, after making q new
mana ement and shaking his skirts
clear of the long-haired individual who
;ut such wide swath in Les Angeles.

The imp:e'siveness Of Grover Cleve-

that he spoke truths that all have ex-
perienced, when he said that the people
are "burdencj as consumers by u tariff
system that relentlessly and unjustly
demands from them in the purchase of
the necessarieS and comforts Of life ar
amount scarcely met by wages Of hard
and daily toll" From every city and
hamlet in the land tho facts prove this
truth, and no sweeping general state

Ono Of the most remarkable features
Of the approaching campaign will be the
efforts which Harrison will make to
catch the independent vote. It is re-
ported that Quay, Dudley, Plat and the
whole tribe Of working politicians have
already taken additional offense from
the, part which the president has al
ready undertaken to play with view
to diverting this vote from Cleveland in
the November election. Mr.. Clarkson
has openly criticised the president and

1t takes ten columns Of space in the
New York World to recapitulate all the
strikes which have occurred in protected
industries in this country since the Nc.
Rinley law went into effect. The mag
nitude Of the list is astounding, even to
those who have long been convinced
that protection" protects capital in its
aggressions on labor. Sixteen days after
the act went into effect / 200 iron miners
at Dayton, Tenn, struck against n re.
duction Of wages. That was the first,
and it has been followed by no fewer
than 473 strikes against reduction Of
wages under the operation Of the Nc
Kinley tariff iniqulty. AS The World
expresses it, there "has been no Instant
of time since the Mckinley tariff act
went into effect that there has not been
in progress somewhere within the
United States strike against a pro-
posed reduction Of wages in some pro-
tected industry."-St. Paul Globe.

supports the name Of Reid hangs like a
dead weight even in the briskest kind Of

In administration circles, the story
goes, there Is considerable uneasiness
felt because of the growing apathy
among the active Republican workers;
because they declared before the Min
neapolis convention, and have repeated
It since, that "there are no inducements,
from 4 federal patronage standpoint, for
them to pull of their coats in behalf Of
Harrison"
To counteract the widespread and
steadily increasing feeling Of discon-

The importance of achieving victory
Is so urgent and the disastrous conse-
quences Of defeat are SO manifest that
no chances which may aid in winning
the battle must be neglected. The de-
pressing effect upon the country and the
party which would inevitably follow Q
Democratic repulse in November was
truthfully portrayed by Mr.. Cleveland
in his speech, and he emphasized the
necessity for Systematic and intelligent
effort on the part Of all who are enlisted
in our cause" Vigorous fighting and
brilliant campaigning alone will not win
the election. That army fights most
successfully whose forces are most com.
pactly organized and whose movements
are directed by an intrepid, skillful and
confident commander. The valiant SOL

There Is no such thing as o federal
election. Some Of our Republican
friends will look upon this statement as
audacious. After they have had time
TO recover from the swoon into which 1t
has undoubtedly thrown them we may
give calculation to the proposition in
detail. For the present 1t is sufficient
TO say that the people Of q state choose
presidential electors and representatives

federal authority. They create and
limit the federal power.-Cincinnati En-
