Leading Jersey City Physicians on Quar-

''The Question Of keeping cholera out
of this country is purely matter of quar-
antine," said DR.. John D. McGill, when

ever cholera once gets foothold." he
went on, 'sthe prodirious increase of the
germs or bacillus is very noticeable. This
increase is only due to certain conditions
favorable to the scourge. Frost will i'm
mediately destroy the activity of the

vent cholera from gaining foothold here

Myrtle Farmer, whom her parents
thought had mysteriously disappeared.
The girl is 16 years old, but would

but came home, and day before yester-

She took basket in which were some

not been heard from by her parents, and

Newport Beach Proposed ~ the Next

How would it do to have the First
brigade encampment at Newport land
ing? says the Santa Ana Blade.
At the officers meeting in Los Angeles
several days ago the subject of place
for the next National guard encamp-
ment, and the time for holding it, was
discussed. 1t was decided to 60 into
camp sometime between the Sd and 10th.
of August. When the place for holding
the encampment came up, Santa Monica,
last years camping ground, Ventura, San
Juan and Newport were proposed. Ven
tura was looked upon favorably by some,
San Juan by others, and Newport by still
others. Major McKelvey thinks that
probably ii proper concessions as regards
water and camping grounds can be OBJ
tanned the camp may be taken to New
port. The camp and drill grounds
would be obliged to be situated on the
bluff above the beach, and water hauled
in.
Newport will be q popular resort this
summer. It will be we'll patronized, and
well cared for oy the parties in charge
of the beach, and why not draw still
more attention to it in this manner? {?

DAN BURNS'S FRAUD.
WHAT THE MEXICAN COURT SAYS
ABOUT IT.
How the Willy Colonel Tried to Get Hold
of the Candelaria Mine-The
Facts in the Case.

The Two Republics, published in the
city of Mexico, prints the full text Of
the decision Of the court on the appeal
OF Col. Daniel M. Burns against the de-
cision of the second criminal Judge in
the proceedings instituted against him
by Mark Birmingham.
1t will be remembered tina Burns re-
peatedly insisted here that the proceed
ings against him in Mexico were not of
q criminal nature and that no charge of
fraud was involved therein. That
Burns's representations in that respect
were incorrect is shown by the extract
given below from the decision Of the
Mexican federal court:
1t appears from the decision that
Burna's attorneys contended in the fed
eral court that there was no evidence
that fraud had been committed. On
that point the court says:
Reference to the certified copy Of the
proceedings shows the following well
established facts:
First-That Birmingham was entitled
to bring suit against the mine "La Can
delaria" fact recognized by the ap-
pellant in his written request for relief.
Second-That Burns, while superin-
tendent of the company working the
mine, denounced'i it before the prefect of
San Dimas, alleging for reason of such
announcement the abandoned condition
of the mine. aav
Third-That at the time the said de-
nouncement was made twas being oper-
ated and yielding ore.
The court, commenting on the above,
says:
That as Burns, in his capacity as gu
perintendent of the mine, which was
yielding metal, could not be ignorant of
such yield, it is evident that knowingly
he formulated the excuse of abandon
ment of the mine in order to gain posses
sion thereof to his own benefit by undue
advantage and to the injury of Birming-
ham, whose right to q part of the mine
was unquestioned, the foregoing consti-
tuting the element of fraud denounced
by the second criminal Judge and which
is covered by the 413th article OF the
penal code in the following terms, to-
wit: Fraud exists whenever one by
deceiving another or by taking advan-
tage of the error or ignorance Of his vic
tim secures possession Of anything be-
longing to the latter, or obtains some
unwarranted advantage over him to the
injury OF the said victim"
In conclusion, the court in dismissing
the appeal says: Therefore. in virtue
of the considerations hereinbefore set
forth, and in accordance with articles
10l and 102 of the constitution, it is
hereby declared that the Justice of the
union neither relieves nor protects Dan
iel M. Burns as against the acts he COM
planned Of"
1t would seem that the willy colonel,
not content with getting or trying to get
the Candelaria mine in the manner set
forth in the above decision, even tried
to beat Mexican justice out Of its legiti-
mate fees, for the concluding sentence
of the decision rather naively reads:
Let the foregoing be made known and
the evidence sent to the supreme court
of justice for it's due approval as to the
premises and the petitioner be charged
the legal stamps lacking"

THE FACTS WILL Be KNOWN,
Oberlander Was Mixed Up in an
Official Fight.
San Diego officials Trying to Down

Deputy United States Marshal Marsh
Talks About the Case-He Has
Sensational Afidavits In
His Possession.

Deputy Marshal A. W. Marsh re-
turned yesterday from Tia Juana, where
he bad gone under telegraphic instruc-
tions, to take depositions and afidavits
regarding the ODerlander matter. In
talking Of the case yesterday to q HER
AID reporter, he spoke as follows:
"After full investigation of the mat
ter by Judge Pedro Rendon and General
Ross, the acting governor, and upon the
arrival OF Governor Torres, it was de-
cided on Thursday to dismiss the case
against Oberlander, in which he was
charged with arresting Juan Cruz on
Mexican territory. This action was
taken by the Mexican authorities not
because they. were entirely convinced
that ODerlander was not guilty, but be-
cause it was shown that he was in
reality setting for certain prominent
officials in San Diego who have been
very desiroue OF procuring evidence
against myself and Smallcomb for the
knowing three weeks previous to nv
arrest for that supposed offense that the
warrant for me had been issued,
and that service Of it had
been delayed while an attempt
was made to suborh witnesses,
have kept careful watch on the parties
who have had the case against me in !
hand, with the result that I have in NV
possession afidavite showing why and
how Oberlander came to be mixed up in
the, arrest of Cruz on Mexican soil. ssT
As stated, Oberlander was released
formally on Thureday and the case was
dismissed. In doing this the Mexican
government, has however, not admitted
that be was rearrested on American soil,
after his escape from the Mexican side.
That matter is still under investigation,
and Judge Fuentes and the four rurales
whom Oberlander alleges kidnapped him
after his escape, we're arrested on Thurs
day and sent to Ensenada to answer his
charge.
II can state that am in possession OF
an affidavit by Oberlander which inn
p!icates q number of San Diego |
officials. | cannot give this to |
the press at present, but will saw
that tho affidavit will be amply corrob- |
GRATED by others in my possession.
The facts in the Oberlander case |
have been grossly exaggerated in the |
press reports. The Mexican officials.
under the direction Of Governor Torres, |
have given the case most thorough,
examination, and have dis
played the utmost courtesy towards this |
country while thoroughly maintaining |
the dignity of their own."
