STERNBERG IS CONVICTED.
1t Took Eight Minutes to Decide His
Case.
The Defense Rests Unexpectedly Without
Submitting Either Argument or
Evidence.

Louis Sternberg was convicted by the
jury yesterday after elaboration of about
nine minutes. The case had been sub
mitted without argument and without de-
Tense.
The testimony taken yesterday was not
important. relating merely to the fact that
Newman and Lust did not live at the
Baldwin Hotel at the time they had regis
tered from there. At the conclusion of
this testimony, which was that of Brush
Hardenbergh, the clerk of the Baldwin, the
prosecution rested.
At this point Attorney Cross moved that
the Judge instruct the jury to acquit, on
the ground that the discriminating teSti-
mony was all from accomplices, and that
uncorroborated it was not sufficient to
convict. Judge Wallace denied this mo-
ton, and then the defense agreed to sub
NIT the case without argument.
The only material point in the court
charge to the jury lay in the fact of his in
structions as to the testimony of Gutman.
Gutman, he said, was not an accomplice to
the particular transaction upon which the
charge under trial was based, therefore his
evidence was competent corroborative evil
dence and might be considered by the Jury
as such. Sternberg will be sentenced next
Monday.
The fact that the defense rested its case
without argument and without producing
testimony was great surprise to those
who have followed the case and who, per-
haps, expected some rather salacious de-
tails from the life of Adolph Gutman to be
brought out upon further cross-examina-
ton. Mr.. Cross rested his entire case upon
the charge of the court, proceeding gem
orally. considered rather risky in any case.
He did not have any witnesses present
should he have use for them and # is owl
dent it had been the intention of the de-
Tense from the start to make no defense ex-
cept upon the technical ground relating to
the testimony of accomplices. Upon this
ground too, the case will undoubtedly APP
pear in the Supreme Court.

MORE THAN ONE WILL.
The Attorney for Pairs Executors Does Not
DENY the Fact

The Attorney for Fairs Executors Does Not
Deny the Fact.
Whether the late James G. Fair made
three, four or five wills other than that
offered for probate in Judge Slack's court
yes terday by the executors of the estate, it
is evident that the one purporting to be
the last is not the only one in existence.
1t does not appear whether the attorneys
for the proposed contestants of the will
now visible intend to endeavor to prove
that it is not the last of the number which
the Senator made and now in existence.
But the prospects of a very interesting con-
test are extremely good.
In answer to the query whether Reuben
n. Lloyd's statement as to the existence of
other wills is true o., false, William NJ.

Sheriff O'Neil of Sacramento testified
recently in the cases OF the American
Railway Union men charged with con-
spiraCy, that there was no need OF troops
in Sacramento" during the riots of last
July. He further said that he offered to
give the railroads protection whenever
they wished to make up trains, but
that they insisted on the calling out
OF troops. This is richness, If one
fact in this connection is more patent
than another, it is the fact that Sheriff
O'Neil, during the Sacramento riots.
was in covert sympathy with the rioters
and sought to play into their hands so
far as he was able without actually
placing himself in their ranks. Had
this officer stood up to his duty like a
man there would possibly have
been no need for troops in Sacra-
meuto. But the work and tempor-
i2ing spirit which he displayed and
the knowledge that he was secretly in
sympathy with the rioters encouraged
them to acts OF open violence which made
the presence Of troops absolutely neces-
sary to the safety of citizens. Sheriff
o. Neil Of Sacramento would better say as
little as possible about the part which he
played IN the disgraceful scenes of last
July

[Los Angeles Times.l
President Worthing of the San Jose
Grange is quoted as saying that "it every
man, woman and child in California
annually the CENTRE product could be
mark eted within the State" Very likely
it could be. But Californians cannot be
blamed for partaking rather gingerly of
dried fruits when they have such a super
abundance of the most delicious fresh
fruit at all seasons of the year. They very
properly prefer to consume the fresh
fruit at home and to allow the dried pro-
duct to be sent to the people of less
favored sections.
