A Case About Boilers.

The case of the Baker Iron Works vs..
The Citizens Ice Company was COM
menced yesterday before Judge Clark
and jury, and is to recover balance
alleged due for three boilers erected by
the Baker Iron works.
The plaintiff was represented by
Messrs. Wilson & Bulla, Messrs. Che
ney q Cronin appearing for the defen-
dant.
The following jurors were selected to
try the case: j. NJ Armour, G. w.
Aylsworth, 3. B. Brown, R. Cahill, J j..
G. Glenny, F. W. IHetz, J. Kennedy, j.
Marsh, A. Smith, B. Stead, A. Thorne
and A. H. Wood.
1t appears from the evidence that on
November IL, 1890, contract was en-
tered into with defendants to erect and
construct three return flue tubular boil
ers, with Misunderstanding setting for
$1,000. These boilers were erected and
$4,000 paid to plaintiff, part payment on
them.
The balance of $2021 OF not having
been paid, plaintiff brings suit to recov.
or the same. In anewer, defendant
claims that when the boilers came to be
tested they were not satisfactory, and,
therefore, cross complaint is filed, in
which defendant claims damages in the
sum OF $6,O79.94, by reason of the failure
OF plaintiff to perfect the boilers within
the time named in the contract.
The morning was passed in taking tes-
timony, but was not concluded. 1t will
be resumed this morning at the close of
Judge Clark's probate business.

Mrs. S. G. Clark was the complaining
witness yesterday in Justice Austin's
court against Artemus Bishop on q
charge OF battery. She accused the de-
PENDANT of throwing stones at her. The
testimony shows that Bishop was driving
along Mozart street in East Los Angeles,
when Mrs. Clark accosted him and ac-
cused him of making uncomplimentary
remarks about her.
She threw some good-szed stones at
him, and one of them lodged in the
wagon. He picked it up and returned
the compliment. The court decided
that the complaining witness was the
aggressor, and dismissed the case.

The Third Trial and the Cup Won by the
VigElant.
New YORK, Oct. 1.-THE Vigilant
defeated the NallSyrie for third time
yesterday. after hard battle. A few
seconds before the starting gun was
fired both boats were flying for the
line, close hauled by the starboard
tack. the American boat little in the
lead with the Englishman off the
weather quarter.
1t was a close call and for a time it
looked as Though the Vigilant would
be over first and handicap the Nalzyrie
by half a minute. Skipper Hanson was
a little too anxious, however, and had
to pay the penalty for this by being
forced over toward the eastern end of
the line. The result was loss to the
American boat, for she had to huff in
order to weather the way.
The race was an exciting one from
start to finish and at one time the
Nigilant seemed doomed to defeat.
The Englishman was leading by sew
eral lengths. when a little split APP

minutes another spinnaller of light
Irish linen was taken and quickly run
up.
1t was all in vain. however. for the
wind was blowing nearly half a gale
and this light canvas was soon torn
into shreds. This crushed forever the
hopes of an English victory for one brief
day, for although a balloon jib top-sail
was hoisted instead of a spinnalker, the
Valllyrie fell astern and crossed the
line 500 yards behind the Vigilant.

The bishop told him he could withdraw

Wilson held the Lawrence charge he

Corn Condition Lower Wheat and Dat
Yields Down.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE October
returns to the statistician of the de-
partment of agriculture make the gem
eral condition of corn 80. l, against 16.7
for last month and 1898 for October,
1892. This falling off in condition is
the result of the continued drought,
which commenced in June and was not
broken in the corn belt until the lat
ter end of September.
The returns of yield per acre of wheat
indicate Il production of about 11.3
bushels, being IL bushels less than
last October estimate. The rate of
Weld in New York is 14.5 bushels; Penn
sylvania, 40: Ohio. $50; Michigan,

consin. Is. 5; Minnesota, 81; Iowa, IL. s.;

South Dakota. Sc: North Dakota, 9. b;
California, liz. The small yield is the
result of the drought during the fall,
which caused poor termination and
growth, the severe winter following
causing considerable winter killing.
The low condition in many states
is the result of the dry spring. The
average Weld would have been much
less had not much worthless wheat
been plowed up and the ground put in
other grains. The quality of the east
ern, southern and Pacific states is up to
an average, while in the states from
which the commercial supplies are OBJ
tanned it is below an average. The
states reporting the lowest averages as
to quality are: Kentucky, Sc; Illinois.

A suspicion That They Cut mississippi
Leyees to Float Their Logs.
New ORLEANS, Oct Il. A mass meet
ing of citizens of Concordia parish was
held last night to protest against the
presence of the lumbermen and log
cutters in the parish. A strong suspi-
cion has always prevailed that the
lumbermen cut the leveeS in order that
the country may be overflowed, as that
helps them to float their logs off the
swamp. An overflow is blessing to
them. for unless il comes their logs will
remain in the swamp until they rot
away The mass meeting denounced
those engaged in the business, and
all persons have been warned to de-
sist at once from cutting logs and to
leave the parish within three days at
their peril An executive committee
was appointed to see that the resolu-
tions adopted were carried out, and
they were authorized to call posse
whenever it became necessar. to en-
force their orders. The neighb boring
parishes of Tensas. Madison and Con-
cordia in Louisiana and Chicot and
Desha counties in Arkansas were in
vited to join in the movement and drive
out the log cutters Nearly all of the
officials took part in the meeting. A
resolution was also adopted ordering
all labor agents engaged in soliciting
labor for plantations in this portion of
the state to leave the parish at once at
their peril.
