Strange Disappearance Of a Pc.
lice Court Clerk
HAS DROPPED OUT OF SIGHT
lntimalious That His Accounts viii
Show . Shortage
No One Has Seen Him Since Christmas
Eve-His Bondsrnen Anxious to LO-
cate Him-Rumors of Woman.

w. W. Everett, clerk of Justice Nor
rison's department of the police court,
is among the missing not having been
seen in the city since Thursday evening
last, and there now remains little doubt
that he has left the country and is prob
ably by this time far on his way to Mex
leo or Central America. With him, it Is
reported, hae gone some 5000 or more of
the city's money, besides considerable
gum which he borrowed from friends In
anticipation of his flight.
The missing man attended to his du
ties in court as usual Thursday, leaving
at little after in the evening, suppos-
edly for his home. About o'clock tel
ephone message was received by Mrs.
Everett at their residence, 1875 Pasa-
dena avenue, East Los Angeles, from
her husband. stating that he would not
be home to spend Christmas eve, as he
was feeling badly and should stay all
night at the Hammam baths.
AS he failed to apear on Friday and
10 word was received from him great
uneasiness was felt Justice Morrison
made friendly call during the afternoon
only to find that Everett had not been
heard from since the night before. A
search was made in his accustomed
haunts over in the city, but no one could
be found who had seen Everett during
the day. Another night passed, and yes
terday the first serious fear that he had
decamped was expressed. During the
day the bondsmen were doing some live
ly skirmishing, endeavoring to ascertain
his whereabouts, but without avail, and
they have about concluded that Everett
will not soon be seen in this vicinity
again.
1t has become known that Everett has
not made a settlement with the city
treasurer for two months past and the
grand jury experts have been going
over his books for some days. The claim
is made that before leaving the missing
clerk drew between $500 and 5000 of the
cty's funds from the bank, which, with
other cash it Is supposed he raised,
would give him $500 or 5000 for travel
ing expenses. To secure any possible
loss the city has five bondsmen who are
each liable for $1,000, SO that they will
be the only sufferers If it shall develop
that Everett has gone for good.
Mrs. Everett was too i'll to be seen last
| night, but 1t was learned upon good au
| thority that she is satisfied that her hus-
band has gone. On Christmas eve he
sent over to their only child, beautiful
| little girl, Christmas package with a
| note telling her that she must be good
girl and he hoped she would enjoy the
| present. The message closed by wish
! ing her goodbye. While in itself ap-
parently reading innocently enough
taken in connection with his mysterious
disappearance, it would seem to indicate

CONTRADICTORY SWEARING
a Parkhurst Case Where Some One Is
Evidently Badly Mistaken

Before Justice Morrison yesterday af-
ternoon the trial of j. E. Mcdowell pro-
prietor Of the White Wings saloon on
First street, one of the interminable
Parkhurst cases, was continued. Tes-
timony on both sides had closed at the
previous session, but, as there was a
direct conflict of evidence, the Park
hursters swearing that they visited the
place and bought liquor after 2:S0 in
the morning, while the defense put on
eight witnesses who testified that the
place was closed at few minutes after
12 and that the visit of the committee
lasted only from shortly before to a
little after midnight evidence In rebuff
tai was allowed.
Accordingly H. s. Ryder, J. r. Ross,
Dr. C. C. Mclean and Il. g. Decker were
put on the stand to substantiate their
former statements. Mclean and Deck
er swore that they were in the place
between 2:30 and 2:45 in the morning
and bought beer Ryder corroborated
them and said he had peeked through
the crack of the door at the time named
and had seen his comrades in the saloon.
Furthermore, as proving that none Of
the party were In the place as early as
midnight he stated that all had met at
DR.. McLean's house just before 12 o'clock
and had walked together to the car and
come uptown to begin their nocturnal
prowl, arriving at Spring and Second
streets at 1915 or little later.
In these statements he was supported
by the other three committeeman and
cross-examination by Mr.. Rush failed
to shake their testimony. The case for
the prosecution again being closed, NJ.
G. Bradford, a tamale vender, whose
stand is directly III front of the saloon
door, was called for the defendant. Brad
ford distinctly remembered the night in
question and said that the saloon was
tightly closed by 1915. He knew it for
he saw the proprietors go home and the
curtains were drawn SO that the inter-
Tor of the place was plainly visible and
if anyone had been in there he should
have seen them. HiS testimony was
| merely corroborative of that of the po-
liceman on the beat, nightwatchman
and several others who had been heard
at the previous session.
The hour of adjournment having ar
rived, a continuance was taken until
Monday morning at o'clock, when the
case will be. concluded and submitted.
