FOUGHT OVER THE BOND.
Sureties in the Hale and
NorCroSS Appeal Cause
Trouble.
Mr.. Baggett and Mr.. Bishop Nearly
Come From Words to Blows
in the Face.

The appeal bond in the Hale and Nor
cross case has been justified and accepted
by the County Clerk and over the accept,
ance of it there was the beginning of what
might have been very pretty fight be-
tween Baggett and Bishop, the opposing
attorneys.
The sureties on the bond are Walter s..
Hobart and c.. D. Lane. To both of these
Baggett objected, to Hobart because his
attauhable property consists of shares of
stock in the Hobart Estate Company, and
to Lane because he did not consider his
third interest in the Utica mine sufficient
property for surety on the big bond.
which Hobart holds in the estate company
can be easily transferred without any evil
dence of the fact appearing, and for that
reason he thought him an unsuitable man
on the bond. In the case of Lane he OBJ
iected to the sufficiency of the surety, and
it was over this question that the row grew.
Baggett was examining Lane as to the
income he derives from his interest in the
Utica mine, and to many of these ques-
tions Bishop objected, on the ground that
Baggett had no right to go into the private
affairs of his client. One word brought on
another, until finally both men rose and
prepared to fight it out with something
more substantial than mere words. They
were separated, however, and the exami-
nation resumed its cratic way until the
County Clerk declared he had heard
enough and that he considered the sure
ties sufficient.
Baggett says he will not make any more

FUGAzI ON THE GRILL
Rate Cutting That May Likely Lead
Soon TO Donations of Ocean
VOYAGES.

Agent Fugazi of the French line of At
lantic steamers has been summoned to APP
pear before the local Railway Ticket
Agents Association.
The trouble is that four tickets were sold
recently in the Fugazi Office to four people
who wished to go to Paris. They were
routed over the Central Pacific, Union Pa
cifc, Rock Island and Nickel-plate rail
ways to New York. They were sold four
second-class railroad tickets and four steer
age steamship tickets. The four tickets
were sold-so Secretary Smith, who has
the evidence in the case, says-at just $42
less than they should have been. In other
words. $40 SO was sliced from the cost of
each ticket. This was Fugazi's crime, ac-
cording to Smith.
According to Fugazi, that $40 so was

Revising the By-Laws-NationaI Organ
izer Henry KrelIow Coming.
Henry Krellow, the national organizer
of the Cigar-makers' National Union, will
arrive in this City within few days.
Upon his arrival the cigar-makers of this
City will make renewed agitation against
the cheap tenement-house cigars that are
made in the large cities in the East.
Those who have seen how this class OF
cigars are made amid squalor and disease
state that the product is even worse than
those made in the Chinese factories on this
coast, and yet thousands are sold under
the name of white-labor cigars. The tene-
ment- house cigars are sold even cheaper
than Chinese-mad cigars.
AS soon as he arrives Mr.. Krellow will
address the Cigar Union No. 22S,
on Jessie street, near Fifth. This union is
at present revising its bylaws for the pur-
pose of enlarging the functions OF the
officers. Heretofore one or two members
have been attending to all of the clerical
and financial business. AS soon as the
bylaws are approved aD election will be
held for a financial secretary, recording
secretary, corresponding secretary and a
treasurer.

THE CALIFORNIA BANQUET
One Hundred Society Women
Will Receive the Guests at
the Feast.
EnliVen the Menu-A Great
Arbor.

Preparations for the California banquet
are progressing to the entire satisfaction
of the energetic promoter of the same, Mrs.
Margaret Touchard.
A hundred invitations to ladies promi-
nent in local society to assist in receiving
the guests have been accepted, and on Fri
day at P. NJ. there will be meeting at the
California Club of those who have Signihed
such intention. At that time details of
the banquet will be thoroughly discussed.
There was conference of one of the
committees yesterday afternoon, when
there was an animated discussion of the
menu and decorations. The banquet-hall
of the California Hotel will be so decor
ated as to represent large arbor. Santa
Clara and Napa Valley frult-growers will
send grape vines heavy with the purple
fruit to carry out the realistic effect. From
the same regions will be sent hop vines
and sheaves of wheat, to add to the illusion
that this is veritable feast to the Ceres of
the Californians.
The menus will be in white and gold,
and will be lettered with some of the pun
gent savings of the orators and business
men of the State. They will be decorated
with scenes from California's panorama of
natural beauty.
81 have been more successful in con-
vinclng business men outside the City
than here that this is not an enterprise for
private gain" said Mrs. Touchard. ''If
there is any deficit / am responsible for it.
The California. Training School for Cook
cry is to be State institution, and its pur-
pose is to train housewives and servants,
not only to cook well, but to understand

stand this"
She said there had been liberal dona-
tons of brandies and wines for the ban
quet.
For week after the banquet the tables
and products displayed at that time will
be on exhibition at the California Club
rooms, 131 Post street. At that time
teachers of cookery will demonstrate
methods of preparing new foods for in
valids. Physicians have been invited to
be present.
Mrs. Touchard has become much inter-
ested in the varied products of Berkeley
and will confer with Professor Hilgard
shortly in regard to an appropriate repre-
sentation at the banquet.

The United States Statutes Regulate
Hours of Labor.
Several days ago members of the labor
unions complained to Labor Commissioner
Fitzgerald that the laborers at work on the
new barracks at the Preside are compelled
to labor between nine and ten hours day.
The Commissioner answered that he had
no Jurisdiction over military affairs, but
that he would inquire of United States
Attorney H. S. Foote as to the law govern
ing work on Government reservations. He
did so and yesterday he received the fol-
lowing answer to his inquiry:
E. L. Fitzgerald, Labor Commissioned Reply
ing to your letter of the 26th inst. have to in
form you that there is q Federal law governing
the hours OF labor upon Government work, and
that law is found in section 1873, United States
Revised statutes, which provides that eight
hours shall constitute days work for all
Government laborers. Your letter has been
referred to the commandant of the Preside for
information upon the subject referred to.
