STATE POULTRY SHOW,
Secretary Freeman Gives an Idea of
What the Managers of the Associa-
ton Have in Prospect.


Preparations are now being made by the
managers of the State Poultry Association
for the poultry exhibition which is to be
held in the Mechanics Pavilion the week
following the horse show. They hope to
make fine display of market fowls,
dressed poultry and eggs. Secretary E. H.
Freeman said yesterday:
A new class has been created for market
poultry, to consist of turkeys, ducks, geese
BOOSTERS, both old and young; hens, fryers
broilers and capons. Liberal cash prizes are
offered in this class. and Raphael WE'LL of the
Bohemian Club offers special prize OF $50 to
encourage the production of capons.
A fine exhibit of dressed poultry will be dis
played in an artistic and pleasing manner
which will be an object lesson intended TO en-
courage the production of a better class of
poultry for market use.
With the assistance of Professor Hilgard of
the State University they will decide what
kind of eggs are the most valuable for food
the ones with brown shells or the white ones
which now bring the highest market price in
San Francisco.
Besides list of regular cash prizes which
the association offers, there is nearly 800 in
special prizes, which the President, j. A.
Scholefeld. c. f. Whitney & Co. and others
have contributed to be competed for by the
egg producers of the State.

TO HELP IMMIGRATION.
A Real Estate Bureau to Be Established
by the State Development
Committee.

The idea of having a real estate mems
convention has been abandoned by the
State development committee. Instead it
will endeavor to establish a bureau for the
dissemination of ma tier that may encour-
age immigration to this State and the pur-
chase of land. In the circular letter sent
out on this subject yesterday the plans of
the committee are fully outlined. Part of
the letter is as follows:
We hope to have the cooperation of every
enterprlslng and responsible real estate agent
In the State. We hope ultimately to be sue
cessful in arousing a very general desire among
Eastern people to reside in this land of sum
shine, fruit ana flowers.
Our plan is TO advertise California land, pTin.
clpally by an annual catalogue and quarterly
supplemental lists distributed through our
stereopticon and cooking lecturers, by our San
Francisco, Los Angeles and Chicago Offices
railroad agents and other sources-at least
5000 month.
We hope to raise sufficient funds to pay the
expense OF Keeping advertisements continually
running in over 1000 Eastern newspapers
This would call out very large number of
inquiries for homes on the Pacific Coast-we
estimate as many 5000 month.
This method OF advertising land is entirely
distinct and separate from the general adver-
Using of the State through the typographical
map and descriptions Of California now in
preparation, and other methods which we have
in view. The catalogue will contain short de-
scr1pt1ons OF land for sale and pertinent and
useful facts and statistics calculated to inform
the reader and induce him to immigrate to our
Golden State.
D. NJ. Carman has received an encourag-
ing letter from F. W. Crandall, who has
charge of the cooking exhibit at Atlanta
Mr.. Carman reports that as a result of the
cooking exhibits and the sterecpticon lee
lures there he has received orders enough
already to make a carload of California
dried fruits for people living in sections
where California dried fruits mad been
almost entirely unheard of before.

If the facts were as the Mail was lead to
believe by the interview, the consequences
might be as serious as it suggests. But
the interview was an Examiner interview.
Assistant District Attorney Peixotto is au-
thority for the statement that Juror
Smyth did not visit the church during the
trial except when the Judge, jury and de-
PENDANT went there together before any
evidence was given. The church was
guarded by police during the entire trial,
and nobody was permitted to go into the
upper part of the church unless he could
show warrant from the Chief of Police,
who would not of course have given such
an order to juror in the case. So the
fear of Durrant getting new trial on this
ground is unfounded.

the evening of April 10.
IL has always been a mystery to those
VINO knew her best why Miss Williams, a
Virtuous and extraordinarily discreet girl,
should go to the church at the hour and
under the circumstances she did. Ii, as
has been conjectured and is now claimed.
she was led to suppose the social was to
be held at the church, that mystery is
solved. 1t now seems more than ever
probable that since the girl was in the
City on the afternoon of Miss Lamont's
murder that she may have seen the couple
together at or near Powell and Market
streets and formed the conclusions which
she expressed to Mr. Young and in all
probability to Durrant.

Mr.. Dickinson.
Then the court orders that the request of
the District Attorney be complied with
and that is all.

admits that he would have INTERCEPTED

This admission will be useful to Durrant s

intimidated by the newspapers.

MINNIE WILLIAMS FATHER
He Is the Plaintiff in Suit Against
Marceau in the Justices
Court

A. E. Williams, father of Minnie Will
iams, was plaintiff il case tried yester-
day before Presiding Justice Of the Peace
Barry. He was suing Marceau, the pho
tographer, for commissions claimed to be
due on orders he secured while working
under contract. His commissions were
20 per cent on the amount of the orders,
and the amount he claimed to be due was
$175.
He was represented by Joseph A. Coffey
and William A. Chapman, while Marceau
was represented by Mr.. McPike of Dunno
& McPike.
The contention of the defendant was
that Williams was to receive commissions
only on the work he brought in and which
the customers paid for, and that he had

ASSEMBLY LICENSE COMMITTEE
ABUSES ITSELF.
Listening to the Old Quarrel Be-
teen the Grocers and
PeddIers.

The everlasting dispute between the
grocers and the peddlerS over the
amount of the license fees the latter
should be required to pay was aired
again yesterday before the assembly
committee on license. It resulted in
a partial concession to the peddlers, as
the committee recommended that the
odinance fixing peddlers' licenses be
amended so as to reduce the annual
license fee of wagon peddlers from 500
to SIS. The licence fees of $50 for push
cart peddlers and 81 for basket ped
dlers were deemed just. The peddlers
and grocers were represented by dele
cations of both. Judge Shoemaker
talked for the peddlers, and urged the
committee to recommend the passage
of an ordinance fixing the annual
license fee of wagon peddlers at $25;
of push cart peddlers at $40, and in
creasing that of foot peddlers from 81
to SIS. A. P. Moss, the secretary of
the Grocers' association, argued against
the proposed reductions in the licenses
on the ground that it would be the
means of depriving the grocers of the
protection from the peddlerS to which
they were justly entitled.
A proposed ordinance granting any
mittee voted to recommend that the
ordinance do not pass, but that the
present ordinance be amended so as to
reduce the license fee for wagon ped
dlers from S100 to SIS a year.
A proposed ordinance granting any
person, upon payment of $25 to the
city treasury, the license to remove
night soil from vaults and cesspools,
was recommended not to pass.

UP THE GHOST
ARD Plead Guilty to Grand Lar
ceny and Keeping Fence.

J. E. Scott, one of the associates of
Martin McHugh, who was convicted
of grand larceny Tuesday, pleaded
guilty to the same charge yesterday,
and threw himself on the mercy of
the court. George Walker, who,
with his wife, Rose, was indicted
for receiving the stolen property,
also pleaded guilty. 1t is probable
the case against Mrs. Walker will
be dropped, as she has several small
children, on whom her prosecution
would work a terrible hardship
though it is the feeling Of some of the
officers that she is really the more
guilty of the two. 1t looks as
though it were an instance of self
sacrifice on the part of the husband
to protect his wife Frank Brugge-
mann, the member Of the gang who
turned states evidence, will be
placed on trial this morning. He will
probably plead guilty to the charge
and beg for mercy, on the ground
that he was dragged into the affair
against his will. Judge Kelly will
