THE ROWLAND ESTATE.
Two Sets of Children Seek to Get a
Share for Themselves.

Arguments were made in department
two, before Judge Clark, in the Rowland
case yesterday.
The questions that have arisen in con-
nection with the partition of the Row
land estate have been very complicated,
ana yesterday counsel got right down
TO nrst principles and commenced by
quoting from Blackstone, and so pro
ceeded onward from the foundation basis
i1xed by that noted legal exponent of
English common law.
The main point in the controversy
does not. on its face, appear a very
knotty one to the lay mind. John Row
land married twice, and by each wife
had several children. The second wife
has died. and the question now to be set
tied is, whether the children by the first
wife are entitled to participate in the
second wife's estate

PERRAUD GOES FREE.
Gahdino. the Plaintiff. Appears to Have
Pursued a Lucrative Industry.

A. P. Perraud, charged with having

in Dead Mans Canyon, near Newhall
is a free man.
The jury in department one were out
only short time yesterday and return
ed verdict of mot guilty." that was
ssenerany conceded was very proper
Hnd1ng under the circumstances
The defendant in telling his story. not
only appeared to speak with candor, but
gave very reasonable exclamation
which was corrobora ted-of the shots
that he did not deny having fired. He
explained that Gaudino had made A.
habit of carralling stray horses and
noldlhg them Tor ransome, charging $40
per head. This being so, when some of his
children told him that a mare and two
colts belonging to him were straying he
went toward the line, bounding his
property from that of Gaudino, and
then saw his neighbor rounding of the
horses. When Gaudino was on the wit
ness stand he stated that he was trying
TO drive the horses from out his barley
patch back to Perraud's place, but the
latter when testifying. combatted this
statement strongly. Knowing. how
ever, that the mare was very skittisE
and easily frightened, and that he him
self could not reach the spot in time to
do any good. Perraud called out to his
wife to bring him his gun. When he
received it he fired two shots in the air,
in the direction of where the horses
were being chased by Gaudino, and,
sure enough, the man took fright, and
with the colts at his heels, never rested
until the three were safely back il the
stable.
These facts were elaborated by the
defendant in the case upon the witness
stand. and the only Inference to be
drawn was that Gaudino failing to cor
raj the three horses, and thus being de-
prived OF the ransom, sought to take re-
venge by preferring a criminal charge
against Perraud.
This, at all events, is the view that the
jury must have taken of the matter.
