MEYERS CASE ARGUED,
His Counsel Moves for a Dis
missal of the Charge
Against Him.
1t Is Claimed That the Words Upon
Which the Action Rests Were
IrreVelant.

When the case of perjury against julius
Meyer was opened before Judge Murphy
yesterday, Andrew Clunie, his attorney,
moved for a dismissal on the ground that
the prosecution had shown no good
grounds upon which to hold the defend
ant for the charges against him. This, of
course, Immediately provoked argument,
and the point raised was taken under the
advisement of the court during the after
noon. Should a decision favorable to
Clunies contention be rendered, the case
against Meyer will end. Should an adj
verse decision be rendered upon the mo-
ton, however, the defense will proceed to
submit its evidence.
The point to which Mr.. CIunie confined
most of his argument was that the an
swers made by the defendant to the ques-
tlOns propounded to ascertain his fitness
to serve as juryman, auo upon which the
perjury case is based, were not material to
any issue in the action, were rendered
while the accused was not under proper
oath and cannot in any manner be classed
as perjury. He argued that under the
code the clerk of the court has no right to
swear juror until an issue is raised by a
challenge from one side or the other.
Assistant District Attorney Piexotto
contended that the answer OF the accused
when he said he had no knowledge OF such
places-gambling places-misled the d.
rection of the examination, by raising the
presumption that the prospective Juror
was in no way acquainted with gambling
or gamblers in this City. He argued fur.
Their that the posecution had shown there
had been perjury committed and that it
was the duty of the defense to show
either that Meyer had not sworn falsely or
that II he did SO, it was an honest mistake.
The matter will be decided this morning

MANUFACTURERS MEET.
The Association a State Organ
iZation, Not Purely a
Local One.
Stockton, Sacramento and Vallejo
Offer Inducements for the
Gun Factory,

The board of directors of the Manufac-
turers' and Producers Association of Cali
fornia met last evening, H. T. Scott in the
chair. There were present: G. w. Sny-
der, Louis Saroni, J. P. Currier, A. Nc
Sbarboro, M. J. Keller of Oakland, and L.
r. Mead secretary.
A communication from the San Fran
cisco photographers Mutual Benefit Asso-
citation indicating its members desire to
join the Manufacturers Association in a
body was received. The point was made
that they could not join as body and it
was resolved to invite them to join as in
dividuals.
1t was ordered that meeting of the
members of the association be called for
August at 10 o'clock to consider the new
bylaws. The meeting will be held at the
associations offices in the Mills building.
Mr.. Currier suggested the adoption of a
distinctive label for California-made cigars
and for all California-made goods. He re-
marked the difficulty experienced by the
consumer in learning whether articles ex-
posed for sale were really of California
manufacture and thought that some in
sigma, such as the picture of bear,
should be generally used to distinguish
such articles.
Mr.. Keller suggested that each firm rep
resented in the association should have the
fact of its membership inscribed on its
Ietter-heads and that retail dealers who
patronize home manufacturers be supplied
with cards announcing that fact. The
matter was finally referred to the commit
tee on promotion.
Mr.. Scott brought up the matter of the
Boston gun factory, which has decided to
locate in California. 1t wishes to settle in
San Francisco, but has been offered
grounds and freight from Boston by the
cities of Stockton, Sacramento and Vallejo.
These inducements amounted to about
$500 and the understanding was that if
the association would raise that amount
San Francisco would be the site of the new
factory. Mr.. Scott thought the matter
hardly came properly before the meeting
as the association was State institution
and not purely San Francisco organiza-
ton. Mr.. Scott had promised, however, to
bring the matter up. A very one-sided
discussion followed and it was decided not
to interfere in the matter of a choice of
location by the new industry so long as it
comes to this State. The gun manufac-

1 do not consider that the shortest trans Pacific
route will decrease the strategica1 import
ance of the Hawaiian Islands. That island re-
public dominates geographically the North
Pacific Ocean. With a developed commerce
and splendid naval station, in healthy eli
mate, the nation that controls the Hawaiian
Islands will largely control the maritime COM
merce of the Pacific ocean. The fact that it is
not directly on the shortest navigable line to
the Nicaragua canal cannot change this. The
interests of the Hawaiian Islands will be
greatly developed by the opening of the canal.
It is not necessary that Honolulu shall be on
the shortest line of navigation to the canal to
produce this result.

mustered out. For years he held the office
of secretaryship of the old Volunteer De-
partment and was a conspicuous member
of the board of delegates. For years, too,
he was very active in insurance circles and
his paper, the Spirit of the Times, divided
its turf interests with insurance matters
He served one term as president OF the
State Agricultural Society.
In 1854 he was prominent in politics OF
the Wing faction, and in that year ran for
the Legislature, but was defeated. He
also ran once as an independent candidate
for the State Senate and received 1900 votes
in his district. When the old Wing party
dissolved he identified himself with the
Republican party, which began to gain its
strength in 1856. He remained stalwart
henchman of that party up to his death,
His services in behalf of that party were
many and of great assistance to it. He
filled the offices of Secretary of the State
Senate and clerk of the Assembly for sew
eral terms, and was secretary of the State
Republican Committee during a number
of campaigns. When General John f.
Miller represented California in the United
States Senate Mr.. Soruck was spoken of as
Secretary of the Senate, but the question
of locality was brought up and man who
lived nearer to the National capital re-
ceived the appointment. His last Office of
trust was secretary to tke late Governor
Waterman.
Charles M. Chase, in speaking of his
former partner, said: "He was man of
stanch friendships, and his fealty to his
party was too well known to need any
comment. Aside from this, he was man
of great benevolence. AS public-spirited
citizen he was always on the side of law,
order and morality. He was devoted to
