Der, Boalt & Bishop, is the object of a
bitter attack in the contest OF Jesse Shell

conspiracy. of exercising improper infu-
encs upon a client, OF making false rep
resentarions and of inducing Mrs. Lux TO

tor OF the estate OF the late Charles Lux

He Is Accused of a Varied Assortment

The Opinion Is Freely Expressed That the

Col. Florentino Bustamente. arrested re-.
Gently on board the steamer City of Sgd
ney by the Salvadorean authorities at La
Libertad. will be delivered to the local
authorities. He is accused of robbery, in
cendiarism and murder.
Bustam ente says his arrest was an out
rage, as while he was on board the Sgd
ney he was under the protection of the
American flag and while in San Fran
CISCO last year, together with Ezeta and
otner Salvadorean refugees, he was tried,
but there was not sufficient evidence to
CAUSE his extradtion back to Salvador.
1t is believed that President Gutierrez
will punish Bustamente for all the
crimes charged to Ezata and his party
and will order Bustamente shot.
1t is generally believed that Bustamente
has beened sacrificed by Antonio Ezeta.
He says the latter is without money and
was only able to leave San Francisco
through advances made to MIN by a
Spaniard, Manuel Casin, on whom Ezeta
conferred the rank of general and who
paid Ezetas hotel bill and steamer fare.
