ObituarY.


The funeral of VIM. J. Neeley, one of
the old and most honored citizens of
Los Angeles, took place last Wednes-
day, Feb. 3rd, at 10 O'Clock from the
residence of his Oldest daughter, Mrs.
III. G. Hall, pa Belmont avenue. The
death of MIR. Neely was made all the
more sad by the absence of his youngest
daughter, who reached his bedside too
late to be recognized by her father. She
was called from her school in the east,
where she has been for the past four
years, and from which she would have
graduated had she remained three
months longer. Mr.. Neely was SO years
old at the time of his death; he came to
Los Angeles in 1876 from Victoria, Texas,
where he had served his constituents for
eight years as county clerk with credit
and honor. Four years after his arrival
in this city his wife died, since which
time he has been associated with the
Los Angeles Oil Co., of which organiza-
tion he had held the position OF secre-
tary up to the time of his death. The
friends of the family deeply sympathize
with them in their bereavement over
the loss of beloved parent.

GOYTINO DISCHARGED.
The District Attorneys Office Makes a
Blunder.

Justice Owens seemed to have exam
ined Mr.. Appel's motions in the Raskin-
Goytino libel case closely between the
sessions Of Friday and yesterday. The
objection made by the counsel for the
defense on Friday that the complaint
was not sufficient, was overruled at the
time. The HERALD, however, pointed
out the remarkable variance in the sew
eral translations of the alleged libelous
article, and with some reason.
When the original article, as repre-
sented by the prosecutions translation,
was offered as evidence yesterday, coun-
sci for the defense objected on the ground
that it was incompetent, irrelevant
and immaterial, inasmuch as there was
decided variance between the text
and the proof offered. The objection
was sustained by the court, and Deputy
District Attorneys Diehl and Phibbs
were in quandary.
Mr.. Phibbs thought that the variance
was matter for the jury to weigh, and
cited authorities for his opinion. The
court suggested that drafts of orders to
the jury be submitted so as to be given
to the jury. This was after it had been
understood that the people rested their
case. Afterward, however, the prosecu-
tion introduced as witness Tom Laugh
lin, formerly typesetter for Gyotino.
The testimony of the witness was rather
tangled, principally on account of the
frequent objections of counsel for the
defense, who insisted upon a proper
foundation for all questions put to Mr..
Laughlin.
When, in the cross-examination, Mr..
Appel put doubtful question, counsel
for the prosecution objected. The court
remarked:
81 think an answer to that question
would be immaterial."
Mr.. Appel at once replied: 81 agree
with the court in that the evidence of
this witness is immaterial. Let the
witness go !"
The court then stated that if counsel
desired to argue the case they might 60
ahead. Counsel for the defense declared
that the defense neither desired to swear
witnesses nor to argue the case, and the
prosecution coincided.
The case then went to the jury, and
in ten minutes a verdict of ''not guilty
was rendered.

THE HOGAN COMMITMENT.

A Contemptuous Attorney Released on
a Habeas Corpus Writ.
John 7. Hogan, the attorney who had
battle with Justice Sweet of Whining
ton, and who was committed for con-
tempt by that magistrate for an in
definite period of time in an indefinite
place of incarceration, was brought be-
fore Judge Wade yesterday on writ of
haheas corpus.
When the writ was returned, the COM
mitment on which Hogan was yanked
out of the peaceful atmosphere of Will
mington into the turbulent environ
ments of the county jail, was read by
Assistant District Attorney McComas,
who remarked in satirical tone that it
was slightly detective" Judge Wade
then looked it over, and at once dis
missed Hogan from custody.
Los Angeles herald., 1892-02-07

Judge Mckinley of the superior court
yesterday granted new trial to John G..
Hoy. An affidavit on his behalf was
presented by Attorney J. G. Rossiter.
In this affidavit Hoy alleges that he
was introduced by Ed Baker to a nan
purporting to be M. M. Green, by whom
he was authorized and employed to sign
his name to mortgage. When J. K.
Stump was produced in the court Hoy
recognized him as being the man who
represented himself to be Green.
On the night of December 6, 1891, he
further alleges that Stump called on M f..
NJ. Green and confessed to him that he
had represented himself to Hoy as being
nj. nj. Green, and had authorized him
to sign his name to the mortgage. AS
result, Hoy alleges he was made vic
tim and induced to commit crime.
Judge Mckinley then granted the pe-
tltion for the new trial and took occa-
sion to say:
"There is no doubt in my mind that
the circumstances OF the case which
were brought out fully in the Baker
trial showed that Stump was INTRODUCED
to Hoy as Morris M. Green, and directed
Hoy to mortgage the property, and that
Hoy was used as catspaw by the con-
spirators to obtain the money upon the
mortgage. Hoy's fault was the testi-
mony which he gave in the trial of his
case. he must have had some doubts and
misgivings as to the party who was in
troduced to him being the real Morris
nj. Green, and have some doubts
whether, under all the circumstances, [
ought to grant motion for a new trial
after that testimony. But | have no
doubt whatever thatif the testimony as
set out in this affidavit had been
brought before the jury upon the trial
of the case in the first instance, the de-
fendant would have been acquitted /;
that the jury would have believed, as the
court is we'll satisfied, that he was
used as a catspaw by these other
parties. am also satisfied from his
testimony and from hearing the testi-
mony in both cases, that SO far as
business matters are concerned, while
he is man whom you would not say
was OF unsound mind, yet he is not of
full business capacity, and is feeble
minded. OF course there would not be
much excuse for man who had sound
business sense being entrapped in a
scheme of this sort; but it is very evil
dent that he had not, and that he was
used for this purpose for that very
reason, and was thus imposed upon by
the others concerned in the fraud. l
think that under all the circumstances
of the case, under the showing made by
this affidavit, and my familiarity with
the evidence, that it is my duty to grant
new trial in this case. The motion
for a new trial is therefore granted"
