COOPERATION,
He Explains His Plan to a
Small Audience in Metro
poIitan Temple.
and Work Are to Be So
licited.

There was not large audience in Metro
politan Temple last night to listen to E.
J. Jeffries explain his system of co-opera
ton as method of relieving the unem-
ployed of the country. In explanation of
the lack of numbers, it was stated that the
fact that there was to be a meeting of the
unemployed had not been sufficiently ad-
vertised.
]. K. Phillips called the meet
ing to order, and introduced Mrs.
Squires of Oregon, who made few re-
marks, insisting on calling those of the
fair sex in the audience women, instead of
ladies, holding that ''ladies" were only
those of the blue blood of royalty, and that
the only way an American woman could
become lady was to follow the example
of Miss Gould. and with her millions buy
title. She also declared that while Lincoln
had freed 1000 900 slaves, Cleveland had
freed 1900, 600 men and women from the
labor they were engaged in, and placed
them in the ranks of the unemployed.
Mr. Jeffries then commenced an address
which lasted for over two hours. He argued
atlength in favor of co-operationwitha view
of creating society of unemployed that
should set aside 10 cents day to create
development fund, which should be used
to feed men in a common home. He
gave his ideas of how on the cooperative
plan men could be boarded and lodged at
81 per weak each. He announced that he
proposed to organize societies in every city
in the Union, and in time aggregate large
development fund, and like the Southern
Pacific, become power in the land.
Some one suggested land then run the
Government"
Mr.. Jeffries said that if the railroad
could run the Government he did not see
why the people should not do so. He also
thought that the money spent to maintain
almshouses and iails should be devoted to
the cooperative movement and there
would no longer be any reason for keeping
up such institutions. He thought the
time was at hand when the working men
should either attain higher civilization
or sink back into the darkness of the
middle ages. lie read report of Mayor
Pingree of Detroit, Mich, on the success of
the cooperative farm there, and after
explaining the plan he had inaugurated in
the north, suggected that the money col
lected to build the San Joaquin road be
used to feed the unemployed, who could be
set at work building the road, and that
they be paid part in stock of the company
so that the road would be the work of the
people.
To-day the officers of the new movement,
including Theodore Lynch, the secretary,
will start out to collect money or food to
inaugurate home for unemployed, and
they will also seek work for them.

CASH PAID FOR A VOTE
Said to Have Purchased the
Support of Supervisor
Brown.
EVIDENCE OF AN ARCHITECT
He Claims to Have Paid $1,000 to
Secure the Adoption of His
Plans.

STOCKTON, CAL, April 29.-The trial Of
Charles H. Ward charged with giving a
bride to James II. Brown, member OF the
Board of Supervisors of this county, was
commenced in Judge Smith court to-day.
Ward, together with DR.. c. H. Bulson, a
prominent young physician OF this city,
was indicted by the present Grand Jury
for using money to influence the vote of
Brown in behalf of the plans submitted by
Architect George Rushforth for the new
County Hospital at French Camp. This is
the first case of the kind that has ever
occurred in this county, which has been
remarkably free from corruption and great
interest is naturally taken by the public in
the outcome of the trial. Some sensational
Developments are anticipated before the
case closes.
Architect Rushforth testified that DR..
Bulson had approached him and impaired
the information that his plans would not
be adopted, as a rival firm of architects
had arranged to pay $1,000 to have their
plans accepted. Bulson said that he
could fix it so that he would be successful
on payment of the same amount, and
Rushforth consented to do this. The
MONEY lie Sdlu, was paul III TWO Squd1 liz
stallments to DR.. Bulson, who disbursed it
for the purpose of securing the adoption
of the Rushforth plans. The District At
torney said that he expected to prove that
the $1,000 was divided equally between
Ward, who put up the scheme, Bulson
and Supervisor Brown.
The latter was placed upon the stand
late in the afternoon. When asked
whether he had received any money from
the men indicted for the alleged bribery,
he refused to answer, on the ground that it
would incriminate him. 1t was expected
that the supervisor would make positive
denial of the charges, and his answers
have caused gnite sensation here, where
Brown is highly respected.
The trial will occupy another day before
the case goes to the jury.

to bring forward the grain and feed and
counteract the bad effects of the hot, dry
north winds of the previous week.
The precipitation of Friday and Saturday
was of the greatest benefit to the whole
State, as the rains seemed to have been the
greatest in the parts of the State where it
was needed the most. The weeks weather
was very beneficial to crops of all kinds.

early strawberries and cherries were some

amount of benefit that all other crops re-
ceived from it was greatly in excess OF the

Smith to-day decided the insurance suits
brought by the Stockton Combined Har-
vester and Agricultural works against the

In rendering the decision Judge Smith
said that the insurance com panies had in
sured the property of the plaintiff for
$4,000 and that subsequently this prop
erty had been entirely destroyed by fire.
This amount of insurance was made with
a full knowledge of the value and condi-
ton of the property insured. After
this fire the defendants agreed to pay
$4,000 for the losses sustained after a
careful examination into the extent of
the losses suffered by the plaintiff.
The Judge held that the answer and cross
complaint were not sustained and directed
that judgment and order for the plain
tiffs be entered. The court remarked that
the company had made certain agreements
and that no good cause had been shown
why these should not have been carried
out.

fire insurance companies and was stub
bornly fought by them, Attorneys T. G.
Van Ness and Budd & Budd appearing for
the defendants. The first trial occupied
forty-eight days and was won by the plant
