JUDGE WALLACE SUSTAINED.
The Supreme Court Renders Its
Decision.
A SEVERE BLOW AT SUFFERS.
The Writ of habeas Corpus Dis
charged and the Prisoner Re-
manded-The Final Verdict.

The Supreme Court has sustained Judge
Wallace in the Louis Cohen contempt case,
and that eccentric young gentlem will
have to pay his $500 fine and stay in Jail
until he condescsnGs to answer the ques-
tiOns put TO him by Attorneys Nougues
and Andy Clunie in the case of Stillwell
VS.. The suffers.
The decision in the case has been anx-
iously awaited, as upon it much depends.
Three times has the suffers case been
continued by Judge Wallace in view of a
pending decision, and on Friday last it
was also found necessary to postpone the
preliminary examination of the four cleo
tion Ulcers of the Tbirty-fifth District,
who are charged with tampering with the
ballots for the same reason. All doubt is
over now. however.
1t will be remembered that the contem Ut

during the examination of Louis Stein

of having fraudulently permitted Louis

McGURREN'S WHISKY.
He Asks the Fire Department to Pay
for His Loss.

While the flames were Sticking up the
contents of Goldberg. Bowen q Leben-
baum's store and turning the Press Clubs
treasures into cInders some one stole into
Arthur McGurren's saloon, adjoining the
burning building, and made free with his
whisky aud cigars.
Some time later In the day the firemen
deuged the place with water, and in
their efforts to save the place smashed a
mirror and some bar ornaments. McGur-
rem that day estimated his loss at $1,000.
Last night the Board of Fire Commission
erS received communication from him, in
which he stated that his loss amounted to
$3.50. He held that his cigars and whisky
were wantOnly destroyed, and as he was
not insured he earnestly besOught the de-
partIDent to reimburse him for the prop
erty destroyed. The Commissioners de-
cided that they were powerless TO grant
the modest request and placed the saloon
keepers letter on file.
Tne Commissioners appointed Robert
DriscOll hoseman of engine 9. j. Walsh
hoseman OF engine Is, and Ii. Speckman
h0seman of engine IS. The designations
Of Harry White, engine 9; James j. Walsh,
engine Is, and j. S. Smith, engine Is, were
presented and accepted.
Acting Chief Dougherty reported that
be had fined Thomas Evans of the water
tower three DAYS pay; Thomas C0rgan,

They were charged with neglect of duty.

VOLUNTARY AIDS
Reach the Valley Road by
Many Channels.
Stockton Wakes Up, and Even the
Chinese Show Substantial In
terest in the Undertaking.

Up from Stockton comes the cheering
news that the citizens of that place are
still awake to the Importance of the pro-
posed San Joaquin Valley road to that
community. and that they stand prepared
to aid the enterprise in every way pos
sibe. Traffic Manager Leeds yesterday
received a telegram from member of the
Chamber of Commerce of that city, in
which the information was given that that
body would soon meet and take some ac-
ton in the premises. It was requested
that plan Of organization be forwarded
al once.
Even the Chinese have Unexpectedly
come to the front in behalf of the enter
prise. The Chinese Board of Trade has
put up $1,000 as a subscription for stock
and outlines its reasons for so doing in
the following communication:
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. %. 1894
To the Manager Of the Traffic association of
CGiUorntd-DEAR FIR; The matter of a rail-
road 10 the San JOAQUIN Valley, projected by
the Traffic Association OF California, having
come to our notice few days ago. it was de-
cided that meeting of the Chinese merchants
OF this city should be held last evening o con-
slider the proposit ion and its probable effect IN
restoring TO this city the business with many
places which has been lost during the last few
years.
The whole project was gone over thoroughly
and the conclusion reached that while we were
aware that the altitude OF the people of Califor-
MIA was such that neither we nor any of our
countTymen could possibly have anything to do
with either tn construction or main lenance OF
the road. yet that we, in connection with other
merchants and property owners, were inter-
ested In The prosperity OF this city and State,
and should do our share toward pushing Tor
ward any enterprise that would benefit either.
1t seemed 10 us that such a competing line
would tend TO greatly benefit both the business
and growth OF this community, and feeling that
the merchants OF this city should strain every
nerve TO consummate the great project, we
therefore decided. unasked, 10 offer you the in
closed subscription of $1,000 10 the stock of the
cOTpora ton.

MI. Leeds has a plan in view by which
he expects shortly to ask the lumbermen OF
the State to assist the road by sGbscrip-
lions to Its stock. The class of men desig-
mated have very large interests in the San

tremely high rates of freight charged on

Baked BURGLARS.
Active Operations in the Hayes
Valley.


Several attempted burglaries in Hayes
Valley have recently been reported to the
police, and from all indications the bur-
glars are not nOvces at the business.
They invariably leave palpable evidence
of the fact that they have been operating,
but somehow or other they never succeed
in effecting an entrance and carrying off
any booty.
The most recent occurred at an early
hour yesterday morning, at the grocery of
George II. Wellbrock, south west corner of
McAllister and Webster streets.
The burglars entered by the side gate on
Webster street and, with an auger, bored
three holes around the lock in the rear
door leading into the store. Forum ately
there was paddock above the lock, which
prevented the door from opening, and thus
put the burglars to considerable trouble
for nothing.
What they would have done next is
matter of conjecture But before they
could carry any other plan into execution
they were frightened off by hearing the
clerk, Andrew Schellburg, moving about.
Schelburg sleeps in the rear and vas
awakened from his slnmbers by the furi-
Gus barking of the dogs in the adj dining
yard. He got OUT Of bed and lighted the
lamp in his room. He thought he heard a
noise at the rear door. and on nyestigating
saw the holes made with the auger
There was quite mess from chips
around the door where the burglars had
bored the holes. and traces could be found
of at least two men. 1t is probable that
there were three men, one remaining on
the lookout while the other two were at
work on the door.
The case was reported to police head
quarters yesterday afternoon, and the de-
tectives are investigating it. The officers
on beats in that locality have also received
special instructions to keep Careful
lookout for suspicious characters, espe-
cially during the early hours of the morn
Ing.
At the beginning of last winter a num-
Der Of petty burglaries were committed in
the valley, and IL was strongly suspected

MccoMB AND HIS SOCIETY.
Cases Pending Over the Guardian.
ship of Waits and Strays.

Proceedings have been Instituted before
Probate Judge COffey TO revoke the letters
of guardianship granted to General Nc
Comb over the person of Alma Wohlle-
ben, the matcbgirl who was arrested
recently IN the tenderloin district.
1t Is the girls mother who desires to
have the letters revoked, and under these
proceedings the law governing guardian
ship cases will be tested. 1t is contended
that under a recent decision OF the
Supreme Court the proceedings under
which 1t has been customary to obtain
Ietters of guardianship are void. The
court in that case declared that the petit
toner should be relative OF at least the
third degree or else the proceedings should
be started by the Board OF SUPERVISORS.
The officers of he Society for the Proven
tiop of Cruelty TO Children are anxious TO
have this decision modified.
