Attorney Long made an ora ion object
ing 10 every thing liz general in the way of
testimony which had been introduced, say
ing, II ask in the name of God and all
that's right that you give Stern berg fair
chance"
The court summarized the statements
made by the witnesses. 'These eXcep-
lions merely cumber the records" said
Judge Wallace, addressing Attorney Long.
"Are you going 10 take an aDpeal?"
mo, sir; l can't appeal" replied Mr..
Long.
Newman then stated that Stern berg had
asked him to register from the Baldwin as
a favor, as he was working in Mahoney's
interest. He had told Sternberg that he
was afraid be would get into trouble
S'ernberg said there was no danger.
Everything had been arranged at the
Baldwin and the rooms had been engaged.
81 kept after Sternberg," said Newman,
ito give me the key to the room and be
kept putting me of, saying that it was all
right"
Attorney Long sought to introduce New
mans certificate of registration In evi-
dence. but the court refused to allow 1t.
Sam Lust testified that he worked at
various times for his brother in the adver-
Using business. He resided at 1907
for the past TWO years.
When asked where he lived on the Sd OF
last October the witness refused to testify
on the ground that it would Grimm ate
him. He was instructed to answer, and
stated al 1907 Golden Gate avenue. He
did not live at the Baldwin. He told of
being away shortly after election. Upon
returning to town he and Dave Newman
met SIernberg and went with him 10 Fat
Jack OCOnnOr's saloon. "Sternberg and
O'Connor wanled US TO go away" said
Lust. 'and offered to split $50 between US.
Newman said that was not enough and
Stcrnberg said he would give New

man So On the sidewalk Sernberg asked
if Newman and | would take the $40
between US and leave town. He told us
that there were subpenas out for US and
that il we went into court he would get
into trouble"
Lust admitted that be had registered
falsely from the Baldwin at Steruberg's
request, for the purpose of aiding The
election Of Sen ator Mahoney.
Attorney Long tried to Introduce Lust's
registration certificate in evidence, which
caused Judge Wallace to remark: Il SUP
pose you are acting in good faith, but the
proposition about accomplices cuts no
figure in the preliminary examination"
THAT is the case of the people," said
Clune.
At Attorney Longs request the case
was continued until the afternoon session,
when Mr.. Long asked that Stern berger be
discharged. In support of this motion be
argued at some length. reviewing the testi-

mony offered. II submit my motion to
DISMISS" concluded Mr.. Long.
I'VE submit the case on Mr.. Longs ar
gument." was the laconic remark by
Clunie.
The court reviewed the charge and the
evidence submitted, and recited the law
with reference to crimes of the kind.
Judge Wallace stated when the testimony
of an accompice was admissible: us
there not sufficient cause TO believe the
defendant guilty when all these men come
and testify to the fact? In England and
IN many States of the Union the defendant
might be convicted before a jury on the
evidence offered in this examination"
added Judge Wallace. THE rule of the
law in this State might make the evidence
lnsufhclent to convict the defendant, but
this is not trial, and Though the evidence
under the statute might be insufficient 10
convict do not have to be satisfied on
preliminary examination beyond doubt
OF the prisoners guilt"
The testimony of the accomplicss was
dwelt upon at some length. The court
declared that 1t could not find sufficient
cause to disbelieve the statements of the
witnesses. Il do believe that an offense
has been committed. continued Judge
wallace. Il am satisfied that it does ap-
pear that there is sufficient cause TO be-
lieve that the defendant is guilty and that
he should be held to answer. That will
be the order of the court"
Attorney Clunle asked that the bonds
be fixed at not less than $4,000. An APP
peal TO reduce tho bond to $4,000 was met
by ClunIe, who declared that Sternberg
was the man who was back of all the false
registration at the Baldwin, and that he
doubted if Sternberg would appear at trial,
even with bonds at $4,000. Assistant
District Attorney Black asked that the
bail be not reduced. The court declared
that the bond would be fixed at $1,000.
Concerning other matters In connection
with Stern berg and Cohen, Attorney
Long requested that the cases be contln-
ued until Wednesday next. This was
agreed TO. The case of Stlwel against
Evans was continued until Monday.
e. j. Barron, arrested in connection
with the Irregularities in the Sixteenth
Precinct of the Thirty-tirst District, al
though his attorney was absent asked
that his examination be held then and
there. He declared his willingness to
sign the election papsrs and to obey anv
order OF the court. As be was out on bail
Judge Wallace declared that it would be
30 hardship to have the matter go over
until Monday, as the Mayor. at whose in
stance the arrests had been made, was i'll
ana unable to attend yesterday afternoon.
1t was so ordered. The formal order
holding Sternberg to answer to a charge
OF felony was then issued.
The next arrest will in all likelihood be
that OF Fat Jack OConnOr.

A FUNNY POUNDMASTER.
He Becomes Facetious About Colonel
Graham'S Mule.

Uranam'S Mule.
And now the Poundmaster has under
taken to be humorous about this matter of
Colonel Graham's army mule, and when a.
PoundmaSter undertakes to get funny the
provocation for war is sufficient. Here is
his communication to the Honorable
Board Of Supervisors" it is dated at the
"AnimasP Home. 2514 Sixteenth street."
and reads:
Gentlemen: Seeing the communication OF
Colonel u aham, colonel Fifth Artillery pres
post. TO the Honorable Board OF Supervisors,
wherein he complains of the pound, a branch of
the city government, In the matter of impound-
ing certain animal belonging TO the Govern
ment. namely, one mule Of high degree.
1t seems from all the facts gathered by this
department in reference to this Maynard mule
that the colonel Is unable TO control the con-
tumaciOns mule, who, ike "Peck's BAD Boy" is
always getting into trouble, and being a strict
vegetarian objects TO the bill of fare furnished
him by the colouePs orders, who appreciates
like good soldier, the faithful services to his
country, present md past and permits him TO
exercise his marauding propenslties by invad-
ing the classic precincts OF the Marine Hos
pital people, who, much TO their discontinue
have, from time 10 time. noticed their table
delicacies disappear TO crafty The cultivated
tastes OF this mule.
The resident surgeon of the Marine Hospital
has frequently requested the colonel TO k en-
his stock out OF the grounds occu led BIZ the
hospital. 10 which. evidently, no notice has
been taken. consequently this department. of
the municipal government was notified 10 take
into custody five animals, which were delivered
To his department by the hospital people; four
OF the animals belonging 10 outside parties, and
one was claimed by the colonel, and had the
legal impounding fees charged against them.
This department acted upon authority given
1t by section 3, order 1900, of the general
orders OF the Board of Supervisors, and was
compelled To take stock when delivered, and
impound as Irespassers within the property OF
the United States, Colonel Graham or that OF a
common citizen.
Notice was received at Headquarters that
Colonel Graham, with troop of United States
cavalry contemplated midnight attack for the
recovery OF his mule. This department, there
fore, through its staff officers hold council OF
war, and stationed its reserve force along the
avenue leading 10 the Pound Barracks where
their mule was confined, and awaited the at.
tack OF the colonePs forces. 1t was presumed
that the gallant colonel with his staff made d
TecOnnoiter, and detected that the enemy was
too strong and so withdrew his troops. The
sagacity of the gallant colonel must be COM
mended by all tacticians az being In order and
