AN INNOCENT NAN CONVICTED.
Governor Budd Pardons Him, Under
That Belief.
4 Man of Unblemished Reputation
Who Was Sent to Jail on Per-
jured Testimony.

Governor Budd has pardoned w. ii.
Buehler, who was sentenced in the Police
Court of Los Angeles in October, 1894. TO
pay fine of $500 or be imprisoned in the
Jail at Los Angeles until the fine was
satisfied.
This was one of the most remarkable
criminal cases on record in this State,
and would seem to call for further in
vestigation and the prosecution OF some
one for the injury done to an innocent
man, who had always borne good repu-
tation. Buehler was Deputy Sheriff IN
Los Angeles. In giving his reasons, the
Governor says:
s'The evidence in this case has been
carefully read. The complaining wit
ness, on whose evidence the defendant
was convicted principally, is girl, de-
void of all shame. according to her ow u
statement, and one whose conduct. as
given by herself, during the two days
preceding her meeting the defendant.
stamps her as without moral decency.
Her testimony was positively contra
dicted, as 70 the act constituting the ln-
humanity, by the defendant under oath,
and she herself was impeached as 10 ma
terial matters by another witness on the
stand.
"The gist of the charge is that defendant.
having the complainant under his charge
Gas an officer) represented to her that he
could and would prevent her return 10 q
reformatory if she would submit to his
will and that she, in state OF fright ana
terror for lear of such return, ana under
the persuasion Of the defendant, did SUBJ
mit'
Then follows her testimony. that de-
fendant asked her if she would submit to
him and her answer that she would.
This constituted the sole charge OF ln-
humanity made by her. She further
testified that she had for two days pre-
vious been running around the streets CO.
habiting with different men, she also
admitted that she told a man named Cot
ter that ''she was going over to work
Buehler for some dough-"
Buehler was man of previous un-
blemished character in the community IN
which he resided, being druggist OF
standing, member OF the School Board.
etc. On the trial he offered to prove, pui
the court refused to accept the same. thai
the complaining witness had admitted
that she had nothing against the defend
ant, Mr.. Buehler, but that an officer was
putting her up TO make the charge against
defendant, and was compelling her to
testify against him.
And now comes the complaining wit
ness herself and swears that the defend
ant did not at the time charged, or ever,
have Intercourse with her, and that ali
her testimony charges, in SO far as they
in any manner reflected on defendant
were absolutely false. and that she was
compelled by threats to prosecute anC
swear against the defendant.
The Governor says it is hard to con.
ceive how, on her own evidence, which
was impeached both by herself and an
other witness, the defendant could have
been convicted. He further says that be
thinks Buehler is innocent of the charge
and that it is his duty to prosecute those
who induced the girl to prosecute him.

EXCITEMENT UPTOWN.
A Pistol DISCHARGED. But Nobody Was
Injured.

A Pistol DISCHARGED. But Nobody Was
Injured.
There was more than ripple of ex-
element In the vicinity of Tenth and K
streets about $50 o'clock last evening
it came near reaching the proportions of
tidal wave.
A report of pistol-shot rang out from
the window of the Normandie, lodging
house on the northwest corner of the
streets named, which attracted a big
crowd of people, and they all rushed to
gain admission to the house. Officer
Logue was near by, and he was one OF
the first to enter.
He found Peter McWilliams, an en-
ploye of Mrs. John Miller's undertaking
establishment, engaged in scuffIe
with Mrs. Fred Ray, who held in he,
hand smoking pistol. With some
trouble the officer disarmed the excited
woman and escorted both her and Nc
Williams to the police station.
McWilliams' story of the shooting is
that he went to the NOrmandie, kept by
Mrs. l.. Devin, with friend who wished
to engage room; that Mrs. Ray followed
him into the house; that he, suspecting
she carried a pistol and would use it,
grappled with her, and in the scuffie for
the possession of the weapon. it was dis
%
There were all sorts of stories affoat
concerning the cause of the trouble. One
was that Mrs. Ray was jealous OF Me-
Williams alleged attentions to Mrs.
Deviu.
Both women are married. Mrs. DeviIps
husband resides at home, and apparent ly
their domestic affairs are peaceful ar &c
pleasant. Mrs. Ray was married only
few months ago TO +. E. Ray, we'll
known druggist. She had recently beel
divorced from Z. ii. Dodge.
Mrs. Devin says her servant-girl de-
clares she saw Mrs. Ray try to shoot Nc
Williams, but the latter says the discharee
of the weapon was accidental.
In explanation Of the alleged jealousy
of Mrs. Ray, ii is said that after her d.
vorce, and prior TO her late marriage,
McWilliams had waited on her.
Both McWilliams and Mrs. Ray were
released from Jail last evening, but the
latter will be charged with CARRYING a
concealed weapon.

ADJUSTMENTS.

To fair first night audience at the
Clunie Opera-house last night the No. 2
Leavitt Vaudeville Company made its
appearance 1t gives varied and humor-
Gus performance. but it is not such a
company as No. l, that played here a
fortnight. The management gave too
strong and varied an entertainment with
No. to put No. in contrast with it
But the latter will do good business,
since merriment and variety are
the demands of the public taste.
The La Roses act is Indifferent and
would not be much missed. Miss Villa
Sayne, who sang here few weeks ago,
gave some pleasing songs. won a de-
served encore and floral Offering. Miss
Milllcent Lock, an&operatlc soubrette
specialist, was suffering from cold. She
will probably do better tonight, as she
has capacity. Mcdonnell and Mcdonald
gave q very amusing character act, a
"knock-about' that is decidedly original,
but came near creating small-siZed riot.

the trick of one of the actors rushing
from the back of the house to the
stage with the ushers apparently striv-
| ing to prevent him. QuaZina, a
male serpentine skirt dancer, docs some
very fine work. His American flag
dance is especially beautiful thing, and
won round after round of applause.
George La More gave contortion act,
1.-The Human Bat,' that is thrown into
strong contrast with the recent act of
| Juno, the Frog Man." Lalor and
| Chester, in character act, "The Police
man and the Nurse Maid" did some
very clever singing, dancing and witty
dialogue business in grotesque costum-
cry. Granjean, assisted by Miss May.
gave a fine example of the old-time
French tight rope business 1t strongly
recalled the ieats of Blondin. and was
we'll performed throughout, especially in
| the somersault feats and the walking on
the rope in spurred boots. No better
| tight-rope business has been seen here.
| The programme closed with Professor
Martin and mis- four trained terrier dogs
in q series of very comical tricks by the
trained dogs, the crowDiug feature being
a prize fight with gloves between two OF
the animals. 1t was neat thing and
awakens surprise how it was possible to
bring the dogs up to such realistic level.
