McCheSncr would not be arrested if he
should come To Pierre for the purpose of
liking up matters. This proposition was
rejected. The attorney general farther
stated that III McChcSney put himself
within his reach that he would arrest him
and prosecute him TO the full limit oil the
law. Crawford was then asked under what
conditions he would agree to Il conference
with the Chicago broker. Crawford is re-

with McChcsncy was when the latter had

SAN JOSE, CAL, Sept. ga special

cally and successfully prosecuted; to offer
in each home a cordial invitation to attend
some Protestant church or Sunday school,
and to find where the pastoral work OF
ministers and churches can be most wisely
expended.
Il. Morton, Guy w Campbell and Marion
G. Hall were appointed an executive COM
mittee to carry out the proposed canvass:
The executive committee was Instructed

CHINESE POISON JAPs.
Four Japanese Suffer After Eating al

Four Japanese Suffer After Eating at a
Chinese Restaurant.
Last Wednesday evening four young
Japanese belonging to the Japanese Chris
tan Mission of this city went to Chinese
restaurant at Waverley and Washington
streets and ordered dinner.
They received good attention and what
they presumed good dinner. Yesterday
morning, however, they were all taken i'll
and doctor was hastily summoned.
1t was soon discovered that it was case
OF poisoning, and antidotes were ad.
ministered with but little effect. Two
more physicians were called in, DR.. f. s.
Cook of O'Farrell street taking charge oil
the case.
The doctors worked hard, but at o'clock
yesterday afternoon one of the victims
died. His suffering was very great, and
all medical skill was unable to relieve
him.
He turned perfectly black in the face, his
head swelling to almost twice its normal
size. The doctors hope to save one of the
Their three, but they say two OF them will
have to die.
Great excitement prevails in the jap
anese quarters and many threats of ven
geance are openly spoken. The four VIC
tins are young men of high standing in
Japanese circles, and, as they belonged to
the Christian church, they had many
friends here who intend to prosecute the
prisoners.
The Chinese disclaim any knowledge
whatever of the case and refuse to talk.
The minister and officers of the mission
have been endeavoring to keep the Japan
ese from going into Chinatown, fearing
some trouble.
Frank Mihami, one of the victims,
stated yesterday that he and his COM
panions were undoubtedly poisoned by the
Chinese, as an evidence of hatred resulting
from the late trouble between China and
Japan.

JUDGMENT BY DEFAULT
Proceedings Had Been Insti-
tuted to Condemn a Strip
of Land.
GRADERS RUSHING THEIR WORK
Anxious to Get Through the Adobe
Lands Before the Rains
Set In.

STOCKTON, CAL. Sept. 5.-The suit of
the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley
Railway Company against Antonio G..
Galgiani to condemn strip of land
through his ranch for Valley Railway pur-
poses was heard before Judge Budd to-
day, and judgment by default was entered
for the plaintiff. The line, as surveyed,
runs diagonally through Galgiani's place,
a short distance from the Mariposa road,
which also divides his ranch. The strip
taken by the railroad equals 1928 acres.
The Valley Railway contractors have now
completed the big fill on Edison street, be-
tween Mormon Channel and Weber ave-
nue., and are at work on the latter thor
oughfare, working east and west from Edi-
son street. 1t will take about two weeks
and half to complete the work between
the two channels. The contractors still
have considerable extra work to do outside
of their contracts, and are now doing that
work under Superintendent Wilbur's direc-
ton.
The force of Valley road graders outside
of the city has reached point near the
Pennington road, and is rushing work in
order to be through the adobe lands before
the rains set in.
Several cargoes of steel rails for the Cor
raj Hollow road reached here yesterday
and another lot to-day. More rails for the
Valley road have also arrived by the ship
Alliance in San Francisco, and will be
brought to Stockton on barges.
R. T. Andrews and his party of sur
veyors returned from the field to-day,
having completed the location line for the
Corral Hollow Railroad from this city to
the San Joaquin River. The cross section
ing of the road-that is, the estimate of the
amount of the earth required for the
grade-is nearly completed for the division
this side of the river.

Experts.

Case of the Late Elezer
Frost.
SAID TO BE EXORBITANT.
REPUDIATED ON ALL SIDES.
A Suit VIII Probably Be Brought to
Determine the RESPONSE
bility.

SAN JOSE, CAL, Sept. 5.-Mrs. Dora
Frost and Mrs. Sarah Wissman, the ex-
ecutrices of the estate of the late EIezer
Frost, are wondering who is responsible
for the bill of $736 presented by Professor
Cunningham OF Berkeley for making
chemical analysis of the stomach and brain
of Elezer Frost and giving expert testi-
mony at the inquest and preliminary ex-
animation of DR.. Case, who was charged
with the death of Frost.
Professor Cunningham charged 500 per
day for the three days he gave testimony
at the inquest and $50 for analyzing the
brain, and other expenses attached to his
work bring the total up to $736.
Dr. Trueman also wants $3.50 for making
an autopsy and $50 for removing the brain.
Dr. Burr has also presented bill for 500
for assisting at the autopsy and $50 for car
rying the organs of the deceased to San
Francisco in a glass jar.
There is some doubt as to whether the
estate of Frost or the State is responsible
for these bills, and a suit will probably be
the result.
William c. Winter, the business agent of
Mrs. Frost, says the executives have re-
fused to pay the bills. because they had
not ordered the work done. He says the
work was ordered by the Coroner, and he
will let the parties bring suit before he will
submit to such exorbitant charges as he
terms them.
Coroner Secord says he told Erwin Frost
and others when they demanded an in
quest that the estate would have to pay
the expenses, and that he would not pro-
coed unless he had the assurances of the
executives not to oppose the bills. He
said he did not see how the estate
could escape paying the bills, and if the
bills were not paid he would never recon-
mend their payment to the county.

THE SHOTS WENT WILD.
Narrow Escape of the Bold
Burglar Who Is Wanted
by the Police.
A Mission Householder Fires Twice
With Shotgun but Misses
His Mark.

The burglar who has been operating SO
extensively in the Mission and Western
Addition had a narrow escape from being
filled full of lead by an angry householder
early Wednesday morning at Twenty-fifth
and Noe streets.
About 2 o'clock the lady of the house
heard a suspicious noise at one of the win
dows. She awakened her son and told
him burglar was trying to get into the
house. He jumped out of bed and armed
himself with shotgun. He cautiously
opened the window of his bedroom and
saw the burglar trying to force open a
window on the ground floor with a
"jimmy."
He yelled to the burglar to clear out OF
that and followed it up by firing shot at
him, which. unfortunately went wide.
The burglar fed as fast as his legs could
carry him down Twenty fifth street and an
other shot from the gun accelerated his
speed.
A neighbor named Sims happened to be
on his way home and the scared burglar
dashed past him in his stocking feet, car.
rying his shoes in his hand. He was NUT
tering to himself and Sims thought he was
paralyzed with fear.
Detective Cody and Officer Graham were
in the neighborhood, but at different
points, and when they heard the first shoi
they thought, from the peculiar sound
that it was caused by blast in the quarry
near by, where the men work at nights
When they heard the second shot they ran
in the direction of the shooting, as they
came to the conclusion some one had en-
countered the burglar.
They saw Sims, who told them the di
rection he thought the burglar had taken
They dashed along the street, but Were
unable to sight him, and were forced tt
the conclusion that he had turned into on,
of the side streets and given them til,
slip.
The police are afraid that the publicit,
given to their precautions to capture hin
will make him cease his operations for
time and prevent that most desirable emf
from being attained.
