hoped. in the oil fields of California
proper.
The fact has come'out through the work
being done at the Union Iron Works in
trausposing the British ship Bawnmore
into a tank oil-carrier, the second steamer
of the sort ever seen on the Pacific Coast.
The first was the Hardison. wooden ves-

the Harrison Oil Company of Ventura
County. and burned soon after while
lying at the wharf at Ventura with the
great tanks between her decks filed with
crude petroleum.
The Bawnmore is to sail further to the
southwark and TO tap an oil field far richer
than that of Southern California, for her

northern coast of Peru. and san Francisco,

REPUTE in DOUBT.
Martin KeEIy's Fair Name
in Question.
Testimony in Libel Suit Against the
" Examiner THE Plaintiff Prac-
ticaIly on His Trial.

Martin Kelly, ex-pOlitical boss, is on
trial before Judge Slack and jury. That
is to say, he is the plaintiff in an action for
libel, but the principal point of argument
appears to be as to whether or not the dis
tinguisheG politician possesses an unblem-
ished reputation.
The action is one 10 secure the modest
sum of $4,000 damages for an alleged
libel published in the columns of the Ex-
aminer. The libel consisted in the pub
lished statement that he had wrongfully
become possessed of a dIsmantled fire.
engine and sold it, after renovation. for q
large sum of money TO the authorities in
Mexico. Kelly's bigh-minded soul rose
above such imputatious. and for two days
past he has been striving to make il as un-
pleasant as possible for the publisher of
the alleged libelOus article.
Yesterday morning eX-Mayor Z. b. Pond
took the stand on behalf OF the defense.
He said he had in his then official capacity
given the order for the sale of the engine.
He was asked IL he did not think that the
city had been robbed in tie sale. but the
question was ruled out. Asked if he knew
Martin Kelly's general reputation for
honesty, integrity. ETC., Mr.. Pond replied
vigorously in the affirmative, and said it
was bad. He had heard that only too
often.
George K. Fitch of the Bulletin testified
to having published several charges of dis
honesty against Martin Kelly. No libel
suit bad been brought in consequence.
MIR. Fitch said that he knew Martin
keliy's general reputation very well, and
that it was bad.

Judge c. A. Low aud Others gave similar
testimony as to the reputation enjoyed by
the plaintiff, and then Martin Kelly was
called 10 the witness-stand by W. W.
FoOte and asked certain questions concern
ing himself and his acts. The questions,
however, were ruled out.
A. Il. Henderson, managing editor of the
Examiner, was then asked IL the article ia
question had been published in good faith.
He said it had.
Detective c. j. Stilwell, who wrote the
article IN question. being at that time in
the employ of the Examiner as reporter,
told where he got his information. II
came from Charles Broad. clerk of the
Corporation Yard when the alleged Of
tense was committed, Fire Commissioners
A. j. Martin and Samuel Newman, and
from several machine-shops. The original
article written was over three columns in
length. but was afterward divided up and
published in three separate stores.
Al Murphy said he was assistant city
editor at the time and according to in
structiOns given cut up the story and
headed the three portions published.
The defense then rested and Attorney j.
Z. Bates was busy calling witnesses 10 re-
buttal as to Martin kelly'S character when
court adjourned for the day.

the ships. The company also has 100000
barrels of oil tankage at Talara Bay and
at other ports in Peru, and altogether the
plant now must represent an outlay Of
close upon S1.000.000.
Almost since 1t has been ia the field the
Tendon and Pacific Company has con-
Chile, the Tumbez wells having been
shut down for several years, and now
that it is proposed TO reach out
for market in California and on the
Pacific Coast of North America, it is. of
course, the intention to greatly enlarge
the scope of operations. and new wells
will be put down as fast as the men and
machinery can do it.

further fact also that the oil fields of the
Eastern United States are gradually being
exhausted and no new territory is being

keep up with the demand. AS it stands now
the Standard finds a ready market for all
lis product right at home and little is now
even shipped abroad. TO say nothing of
sending it to the Pacific Coast. Most Of
the Illuminating oil comes from the East,
it is true, but the Peruvian people can
underbid the Standard, though it is not at
all probable that there will ever be trouble.

MORRIS ON TRIAL.
Trying to Evade an Answer to an
Important Question.

The trial OF Thomas w. Morris for the
murder of Daniel Mccarthy, which has oc-
cupied the whole week in Judge Walace's
court, will in all probability be brought to
a conclusion to-day.
Yesterdays proceedings were interesting
from the fact that the defendant was put
on the stand and an endeavor made TO get
him to testify against himself. But Morris
was cool, and skillfuliy evaded Assistant
District Attorney Blacks questions. He
denied that be had ever been in jail or that
he had ever been convicted of felony.
Mr. Black then asked him if it was not a
fact that he had once been convicted OF
grand larceny.

Il pleaded guilty"
man named Edward Mabren testified
ON behalf of the defense that on the night
IN question he saw Mccarthy enter a
saloon and heard him ask the barkeeper

then Mccarthy. picking up bottle, put it
IN MS nocket and walked out. Mccarthy
