FAILED ON HABEAS CORPUS.
KIle's Attempt to Escape Detention is
Unsuccessful.
The Alleged Oregon Defaulter Must
Await a Telegram from Chief
Hoffman of Albany.

An attempt was made in the Superior
Court yesterday to release r. L. Kile
from the custody of Chief of Police Drew,
on writ of habeas corpus.
kile is the man who was arrested by
the Chief and officer Shellars as he
alighted from the Oregon train Wednes-
day morning, on charge of embezzle-
ment. Chief Drew had received tele-
gram from Chief Hoffman of Albany,
Or, asking him to stop Kile, as the latter
was defaulter After the arrest another
dispatch was received from Hoffman.
stating that he would come after the pris-
oner, and would arrive in Sacramento on
Saturday morning.
Attorneys Alvin J. Bruner and George
G. Davis appeared with Kile before Judge
Van Fleet yesterday, and argued that
there was absolutely nothing upon which
to hold the prisoner. No warrant for his
arrest had been forwarded, and there was
nothing to show even that Chief Hoff-
man would have q warrant or requiSition
papers when he arrived here. There was
no knowing whether the proposed pro-
ceedings against kile were civil or Grim
inal.
District Attorney Ryan admitted. that
the only return the Chief Of Police could
make was to hand in the kilograms he
had received from the Albany Chief. 1t
was true that the dispatches contained no
| information as to whether or not Hoff-
man held the proper papers, but it was to
DC presumed that he did.
Judge Van Fleet said that it was not
unusual to hold prisoners for reason
| able length OF time on kilograms, and he
| thought that in this case there were rea-
sons for not releasing l<ile.
Attorneys Bruner and Davis endeav-
ored TO dissuade the Judge from his stand.
They explained that their client was on
his way to Oklahoma with his sick wife
when arrested, and was in destitute cir
cumstances. 1t would be a great hard
ship upon him ii detained here
The court, however, was memorable.
He said he would postpone the case until
this morning in order to give Chief Drew
an opportunity TO telegraph to Chief Hoff-
man and ascertain whether or not the lat
ter was armed with the proper documents.
If he were not the prisoner would be re-
leased.
Chief Drew complained that it would be
difficult to communicate with Hoffman
while en- route, but Judge Van Fleet
would not agree to any other disposition

A RIGOROUS ORDINANCE.
Fire-Alarm Wires Must Not be Tan
pered With in Any Case.

fIre-Alarm wires Must Not be Tam
pered With in Any Case.
Sparrow Smith, wealthy and re-
spected citizen of this city, occupied the
novel position of defendant in a Police
Court case yesterday morning. He had
been arrested on complaint of r. Wat
kinS, superintendent of the Fire-alarm
System, on charge of misdemeanor in
breaking one Of the wires of the system.
While admitting the fact, MI. Smith
stated the circumstances as follows: The
limbs of cottonwood tree standing in
the alley between n and O, Front and
Second streets, had become decayed and
several had lately fallen, endangering
| those who might be passing. There was
Zone large branch which seemed to him
dangerous, and few days ago he took
two or three of his employees with him
and sawed it off. To protect adjacent
wires precaution was taken to pass ropes
around the limb and fasten them to the
trunk in such way as to swing it clear of
the line, but when the limb fell the guys
were broken and consequently the wires
torn down. He pleaded the obvious lack
OF intent as an excuse.
The Judge remarked that the ordinance
under which the case was brought was
peculiar in that the lack of malicious in
tent was not an excuse for a violation of
it. The welfare of the city demanded that
| there should be an exact compliance with
the provision that no one should inter-
fere with any lines of the fire-alarm sys-
tenn without permission first having been
obtained from the Fire Commissioners.
While fully assured that Mr. Smiths
ofense had not been intentional, and that
reasonable precaution had been taken to
prevent it, the court believed he still was
technically guilty, and would so rule.
Judgment was suspended, however.
Judge Cravens hoped that residents of
the city would have due observance of
the ordinance, and limited that future
violations OF it would not be lightly con-
sidered.
