In regard to the action of the Supreme
Court of Appeals in granting a writ of
prohibition in the cases of the hotel
men, it seems that there is a general
misunderstanding in regard to The
meaning and effect of the writ. 1t ap-
pears according to good legal authority,
that the action of the Supreme Court
simply amounts to the issuance of a
writ directed to Judge Jacobs, requir-
ing him TO show cause at the session
of Supreme Court in January, why a
prohibition should not be issued, the
rule being returnable on January 9Th
1896. In the meantime the actions Of
Judge Jacobs are not suspended or ar
rested to any extent. The trouble
seems to be that the legal effect and
scope of the writ issued has been mis-
construed.

THE FOURTH'S BIG ARCH,
The Structure Will Probably Be
Finished by Saturday
Night.
VARIOUS COMMITTEES MEET.
Work of Providing Refreshments
for the Fourth Is Moving
Along Smoothly.

Work on the grand Fourth of July arch
on Market street was commenced early
Yesterday morning. The workmen en-
ployed did not waste any time, for when
night came the framework was in posi-
ton. The contractors expect to finish the
work by Saturday night.
Funds to meet the expenses are not COM
ing in as generously as the committee de-
sires, though the collections are by no
means discouraging. Something like $500
day is being received in small amounts,
and this average will be materially in
creased when several large donations, al
ready pledged. have been sent III.
The invitation and reception committee
met Yesterday. Nine. Sorbier reported
that 1900 streetcar fares had been donated
by the Market-street Railroad Company
for the use of orphans and kindergarten
children. AT least 106S more fares are
needed for children omitted in the original
| estimate, including thirty-five orphans,
with four attendants, from the Frultvale
asylum.
Mrs. Cooper, chairman of the committee,
was unable to attend the meeting, but sent
an encouraging letter reporting progress.
She stated that the problem offeeding 5000
children at the park was readily solved.
The entertainment committee met, and
that she would like to have all the flowers
sent in Wednesday for the various hos
pitfalls for which they are intended. So far
80 gallons of milk, 1920 sandwiches, 6 roasts,
90 dozen cookies, one ham, 215 pounds of
candy, rolls of butter ana 5000 paper bags
have been promised.
The Ancient Order of Hibernians as
body will not join in the parade, though
many of its members will be with the
societies which have already signitied their
| intention of joining in the festivities. In
letter to Grand Marshal Forster, Secre-
| tary McCaffertv says:
1t is within the bonds to say that three
fourths of the A. o. H. will be in the porade in
the different societies that have accepted your
invitation. That the communication did not
reach you sooner, was Tor the reason that the
county board waited until each of the divisions
could be heard from on the matter.
The board desires me to say that 1t hopes the
celebration will be signally successful as you
may desire, and although the order is not par
ticipating order, still, as individuals, the
members are ding a fair share toward that
end.

STATE AMMUNITION.
Sharpshooters Say They Will Not Go
to Sacramento if They Have to


The sharpshooters are still agitating the
question of State ammunition as supplied
to the members of the National Guard.
They assert that the shells are lot of
condemned stuff that was sent out here
from the East and palmed off on the State
au thorities by some one who had a pull.
In order to give the powder thorough
test Harry R. Brown, Al Ehrenpfort, e. J
Dellwig and F. G. Muller went out to Har-
Dor View and tried the States shells filled
in 1891 and also those filled in 1893. The
former were found to be worthless, while
with the latter Brown made 10 out of a
possible 25 and then quit because the recoil
was SO hard that it hurt his shoulder.
Dellwig made 80, Ehrenpfort AZ and Muller
40 out of possible so.
They then reloaded the same shells to
the Government standard-70 grains OF
powder and 500-grain bullet-and Ehren-
pfort made 46, Muller Al, Brown AZ and
Dellwig "A out of possible so. Afterward
the men fired five shots each with their
own shells, and Muller made "a and
Ehrenpfort and Brown % each out of a
possible %.
The men say they will not go to Sacra-
mento II they are compelled to use State
ammunition.

A WIDOW OF FAIRS.
Mrs. Lobo Declares That a Miss Nc,
Kenna of Lodi Was Married to
the Senator.

A Miss McKenna of Lodi is the latest
widow claimant in the James q. Fair es-
tate.
She has been brought forth by Mrs.
Lobo. who claims that she gave the de-
ceased Senator $1,000 for investment in
wheat and that she never received her
money nor the interest on the investment
Mrs. Lobo claims that Miss McKenna
was married to James G. Fair by man
representing Judge Crosby, and that after
the union had been productive of two
children Mr.. Fair acknowledged that the
marriage was illegal Mrs. Lobo further
sets forth that the deceased's wife was q
protege of hers while she (Mrs. Lobo) was
conducting a dressmaking school in Oak
land.
1t is also claimed by this Mrs. Lobo that
she gave Fair $1,000 to invest in wheat and
that after promising her q return of $4,000
he failed to give her back the original
amount of her capital.
Miss McKenna has put in no claim. Her
children, if she has any, have not been
brought forward save in the story told by
Mrs. Lobo, and so far the trustees have
been unable to discover the whereabouts
OF any Fair-Mckenna offspring.
The attorneys in the case place no Gre
dence in the story and in the claims of
Mrs. Lobo and her protege, Miss Nc
Kenna. Mrs. Lo5o called on Louis Bresse,
the special administrator of the Fair es-
tate, yesterday, and received no satisfac-
ton. she also called on Messrs. Pierson &
Mitchell. That firm refused to give her an
audience, and she wendell her way forth,
determined to set up claim in the news
papers if she could not gain recognition
from the lawyers concerned in the estate.

PANIC AMONG P|CN|CKERS,
Two Thousand Children Cor
nered in the Woods Dur
ing a Storm.
During the Havoc of Terrific Light
ming the Little Ones Were Pro-
tected With Difficulty.

MILWAUKEE,, WIS, June 26.-The rain
fell i'll sheets here yesterday afternoon and
was accompanied by a terrific thunder
storm which destroyed many trees. Three
thousand school children of the Ninth
Ward were holding a picnic in the West
Side City Park. They sought safety in the
denseIy wooded part of the park. The
greatest confusion prevailed. The light
ming began to fash and the thunder to
roll. The lightning struck tree near the
shelter, when the tree toppled over. 1t
was with the greatest difficulty the chill
dren, their teachers or their parents could
be kept from leaving the shelter.
Eight times in succession did the light
ming strike in the neighborhood of the
shelter and eight trees were felled. All
the time the panic among the picnickers
was increasing and the rain was falling in
torrents. The children, after the storm
cleared up, attempted to leave the park
and it was found impossible. The new
streets which surrounded it were filed
with water four feet deep. The men had
to carry the women and children from the
park through water waist deep.
a beer wagon was pressed into service
and carried many through the flood. The
streetcars could not run on the street near
the park. Even on the streets downtown
the water was from four to seven inches
deep.
The electric storm played havoc with
the telegraph wires. In the Menominee
valley 600 feet of roadbed OF the Chicago,
Milwaukee and st. Paul Railway was
washed away and delayed railway traffic
for several hours.

NEW YORK, n. Y, June 26.-Albert
Ruhmann, the husband OF leila Nicolaus,
was arrested this morning in Taylor's
Hotel, Jersey City, charged with felo-
niously secreting property taken from
Zella. Under the New Jersey law wife
cannot charge her husband with theft and
so Counsellor Alexander Simpson, who is
Zela's guardian and attorney in her suit

legged valuable papers said to relate to
Ruhmann's personal affairs. This en-
yelope was seized by the constable by
virtue of a search warrant sworn out by
Simpson. O'Beirne also seized Ruhmann
himself and took him before Justice
Walsh, who paroled him for a hearing
at 4 O'Clock. At that hour Ruhmann was
in court with his lawyer, William H. Speer
Jr., but Simpson was conspicuous by his
absence. Counsellor Speer moved for the
dismissal of the complaint on the ground
that the warrant was defective. Justice
Walsh looked in vain for some sign of
Simpson, and when he found nobody to
back up the complaint he discharged Rub

MARIE BURROUGHS REPLY,
Her Deposition in Her Action for q
Divorce From Louis F.
Massen.

Several weeks ago the action for divorce
brought by Lille Lee Massane marie
Burroughs) from Louis F. Massen, her
husband, was referred by Judge Sander
son to a Commissioner, and when all the
testimony available had been presented,
it appeared that the question of the resi-
dence of the plaintiff had not been clearly
settled. Therefore Henry E. Highton
asked that commissioner in Boston be
named to take the testimony Of the plain
tiff, she being at that time in that city.
An order to that effect was made, and
twenty-elght lnterrogatories were SUBJ
mltted to the court and sent on.
Yesterday Attorney Highton received
the deposition. The answers to the ques-
tons are that the plaintiff. who is an ac-
tress claims that San Francisco is her resi-
dence; that she has none other, and for
seven years past has been travelling with a
theatrical company, going from place to
place, but never remaining in any one
place long enough to acquire residence.
She then declares that her husband, the
defendant, is a native of France, is not now
citizen of the United States. never has
been, has never 6een registered as a voter
and never has voted in this country. She
then makes answer to the interrogatory
that seeks to ascertain if during her mar
ried life she has been unfaithful to her
husband. She declares in the most strenu-
Gus manner that she never had been guilty
of intidehty. She also declares that there
was no collision with her husband about
the service of the papers.
These were the material points on which
the plaintiffs counsel desired additional
light, and the answers are satisfactory to
him.
THE poor girl" said Mr.. Highton. "is a
good girl and as she has been subjected to
very severe criticism in this case thought
it but justice to her to secure this addi-
tional testimony in order to set her right
before the public, particularly before the
people of this city among whom she was
