him and explained what he had suffered
at the hands of the conductor, $50 and
new ticket to his destination in Sioux
City with Pullman sleeping-car accommo-
dations If he (Martin) would call it square.
MIR. knight, also of the passenger de.
partment, testified to unimportant mat
ters.
Conductor Weston told plain enough
story. He had asked Martin to write his
name and the signature did not agree with
that on the ticket. He allowed him to
ride some time and got him to write it
again, and still again, but the name was
still unlike that on the ticket. Then he
told Martin that he could rot accept the
ticket and unless he paid his fare he
would have to leave the train. Martin,
he said, called attention to the fact that
he was sick man and asked not to be
put off at an out of the way
station. He said if allowed to 90 on to
Truckee he could secure identification, as
he had done business with the Truckee
Lumber Company. The conductor asked
Martin if he would make any less resist
ance to being put off the train at Truckee
than at any other point, and Martin in
sisted that he would object to being put off
at any place short of his destination for
which he had bought his ticket. 81 .hen
insisted that he get off the tram at
Towles," said the witness. He stated that
he had used no force. but assisted Martin
across the track.
The ross-examination of the other wit.
nesses by Mr.. Delmas developed points of
interest. For instance, Mr.. Towle, pro-
prietor of the hotel at Towles station and a
umber-dealer, testified that he had been
supplied with a pass by j. A. Fillmore,
with a request that he come to San Fran
cisco as a witness in this case. He was
engaged in the lun Der business and had
considerabl business with the company
as freighter.
Does the company pay your expenses
on this trlp?" asked Mr.. Delmas.
mo, sir, | pay my own expenses"
Mr.. Shell, engaged in the mailing busi-
ness at Sacramento, who was on the train
and had to say that the conductor used no
physical violence upon the lame man
made the same statement. He had come
to the City on passes furnished him by the
company four times on this case He
paid his own expenses all the time he said.
He does large freighting business with
the company.
DIR. John Manson, practicing physician
for twenty-nine years, who has something
to do with the railroad hospital, also fruit
grower and shipper, came on passes to
testify and with his wife has been in the
City since the I'd of March paying his own
expenses.
r. n. Manson, the doctors son, received
a telegram from Mr.. Fillmore, saving
This telegram, properly countersigned BY
the station agent, will be warrant to all
conductors to pass R. n. Manson to San
Francisco, as witness in the Martin case"
Mr.. Manson is engaged in the fruit-dry-
ing business at Lincoln, but this telegram
was sufficient to cause him to take the
next train for this city. Arrived here he
found the case postponed, and FASTENED
back to his business. Again summoned,
he responded. He is paying his own ex-.
penses like the others.
The trial will be resumed this morning.

FOUR YEARS OR TWO.
The Tenure of Office of Election Com
missioners Again Under
Discussion.

Mayor Sutro was present at the meeting
of the Board of Election Commissioners
yesterday morning. The meeting was
one of the humdrum kind and was not
enlivened by any references to the Octo-
pus or to City Hall ring.
After some discussion the board de-
cided to advertise for bids for registration
supplies.
In the course of the discussion Mr.. Cres-
well expressed the opinion that the law
creating four-year terms for County Off
GERS should be tested and determined be-
fore the board should incur any more
than ordinary expense. There was ques-
ton as to whether the law applied to San
Francisco. He suggested that the regis
trar should be ordered to advertise for
supplies and booths for the election of all
the City and County officers. Then some
one should apply for writ of injunction,
and the matter could be settled judicially.

The case of George N. Martin against the

the attention of Judge Daingerfield and

were all for the railroad. There was Mr..

the I'd of August last, and who is still in
the employ of the railroad company.

a Loeomotire,. Queer LOAD.

One can never predict exactly what
will be the result of u railroad collision.
Sometimes the wrecked cars IRE pilod
up ina astonishing heap; sometimes
they are telcscoped; sometimes they
are turned over and over. or twisted
crosswise on the track. or stood up on
end. as a baggageman loves to stand
trunk. But perhaps the queerest of all
accidents of this kind occurred recently
at Towanda. Pa, where a locomotive
drawing train ut full speed ran into
three box cars standing on the track.
One OF these cars was lifted bodily. and
almost uninjured. on top of the loco

part OF the cab. There IL remained firm
