he produced an authority from the fed
eral court in the state OF Washington, as
late as August 80, 1892, after the Geary

The district attorney in reply showed
that the Geary act WAS not put to print

still further argued that while the of
Tense remained the same. the Geary act
changed the rule OF evidence and prac-

court was whether the third section OF
the Geary act supercedes the thirteenth
section OF the act of 1888. He admitted
thst'he was not at present prepared to
go into the question OF the constitution
atty of the act, and Mr.. Hotchkss said
he would not now press that point.
1t being decided that the court would
grant time for briefs, the question OF
admission of the defendant to bail was
brought up by his counsel, and the die
tiict attorney did not insist on Dip Ken
being kept in jail pending the decision
of the novel questions at iesue.
Judge Ross put very pertinent
question to the district attorney in con-

1t was criminal proceeding or not, it
having been stated that the supreme
court had not held the registration sec

Judge Smith Construes 1t Against Pas
adena.
A habeas corpus case from Pasadena
was decided by Judge Smith yesterday
in which come novel points were raised
in connection with the power Of the
city council to pass certain ordinance.
The decision, which was in accordance
with an opinion filed by the court, went
against the city council.
The defendant was convicted under
an ordinance of the city of Pasadena
rendering it unlawful for any person to
use any portion OF Colorado street for
the purpose OF switching railroad cars,
etc., across the street.
The railroad switch was built in 1855
and the city was Incorporated June IA,
1886.
The court says that whether the rail-
road obtained permission or not from
the board Of supervisors to cross the
highway, he did not consider it mate
rial ia determining the case.
The city OF Pasadena, he argues, can
not by ordinance determine conflicting
legal rights. city haze no such power.
1t can only interfere with the switch on
the grounds of police regulations, that
is nuisance, detrimental TO life, health,
convenience or safety Of the citizens.
Whether the switch WAS there right

mined by ordinance; that would be a
