The star-spangled postage stamp. which
Mr.. w. j. hampton of this city has been
exploiting lately. and which has DO far
been Iopular.y received. does not appear to
have affected the Post Office Department
at all seriously. On the contrary. the Post
Office Department seems to have consid-
cred the star-spangled stamp as the result
of case of star-spangled digestion or in
digestion. as the case may be. which may
be taken as showing the difference Of opin-
ion between the unreliability of popular
taste and the calm consideration of official
wisdom. A Star man had q talk with the
Postmaster General on the subject and the

something Of the sort to him. and that he
had referred he matter to somebody. Fur

of His Creditors.


The case of Joseph e. Cooke, commits
sion merchant, charged with embezzling
funds belonging TO w. c. Caven. adminis-
traitor of an estate In Contra Costa County,
was called in Judge Joachlmsen's court
Yesterday morning. The complaining viii
ness, II. Ii. Whitman, was not present,
but the defendant desired to make state
ment as he did not wish such stigma to
attach to his name.
MY partner, Mr.. Langley. and myself"
said Cooke. used to get consignments of
fruit which We shipped East to our agents.
One of our leading agents failed and we
were forced TO pay his draft In advance Of
tnesale of the cOnsignments. This made US
short of funds and we were forced TO call
a meeting of our creditors. After explain
ing the situation nearly all OF them, in
Guiding Whitman, agreed to accept notes
payable at different periods IN full settle
ment OF their claims.
I'VE owed Whitman about $1,000 and
met notes amounting to about S1700.
The payment OF the other notes for the
balance was delayed, as we could not meet
them, but we fully intended covering our
obligations.
The moment saw from the newspapers
that Whitman had sworn out warrant
for our arrest | came on from Los Angeles,
arriving yesterday, and surrendered my
self"
Judge Joachimsen continued the case
till the complaining witness. who lives in
Contra Costa County, could be present,
and released the defendant on his own
