rights Rocha did have to his last attorney,
MIR. Lewis. This gentleman comes for
ward now and says that he gave back to
the Indian a trust deed of these rights.
Bat this the record does not show, and this
is the way TuE HERALD printed il.
The filing ci this suit against THE HER
AID by Mr.. Lewis was Iil-advised, but it
will not deter THE HERALD one iota from
its original purpose when it took up the
case of Rogerio kocha. Its only motive
then was TO aid in securing for this aged
Indian alleged rights which have for long
years been denied him. TO do this it was
essential to give history of the case as
disclosed by the records. This was done.
In that connection Mr.. Lewis name was
published. There was neither malice nor
a desire to iniure Mr.. Lewis.
THE HERALD will continue to follow out
its original intention with regard to this
subject. 1t has other facts which are being
verified and which will be published in due
time, In closing, it might not be untimely
to state that it is rather singular for a pub
lie official to base an action for libel upon
the publication of facts concerning his Off
cial conduct that are shown by the public
record,

Another Grand Jury Indictment
Proves to be a Failure
GEORGE BRADY DISCHARGED
Unable to Make Out Case of Arson
o. Against the Man
Burglar Harris Given a Light Sentence-Ross
Shane Acquitted-The Maxwell Deed
Of Trust Case Decided

Another grand jury indictment has haen
knocked out in department one of the
superior court, before Judge Smith. On
motion of Assistant District Attorney Will
Jams, the jury was instructed to bring in a
verdict of acquittal, and George Brady,
charged with arson, was discharged.
The indictment against Brady was one
of the first returned by the grand jury. The
man, who is rather simple minded, was
charged with arson, in having set fire to a
barn on ranch several miles above the
city. The motive alleged was revenge, the
owner of the ranch, widow, not having
encouraged his intentions. Brady was
first arrested on complaint sworn to be.
fore Township Justice Young. He was
arrested, but was discharged on his pre-
liminary examination, as there was no evil
dence to warrant holding the man for trial.
When the grand jury met the matter
was presented to that body. and on
substantially the same evidence as
in the first instance, when the
man was discharged, an Indictment was
returned. Again Brady was arrested. The
validity of the first grand jury was at
tackled, and it was decided that it was ile-
gal. The matter was at once referred
back to the grand jury, when second in
dictment, covering the defect in the first,
was returned.
The district attorney was of the opinion
from the first that it was very weak case,
especially as to the Identification of Brady
as the man who fired the barn, but it
was determined to go to trial. Assistant
District Attorney Williams, who was con-
Quoting the prosecution, when the case
came on yesterday, at once proceeded to
introduce testimony as to the identity of
Brady with the man who fired the barn.
After examining eight witnesses he saw
that no case could be made, and, not
wishing to waste time, moved to dismiss.
The final outcome of the grand jury in
dictments still pending will be watched
with much interest. So far the results
have not been such as to give much en-
couragement that they will be any more
successful than those that have preceded
them.

Srnrsme Court Opinions

Two supreme court opinions were re-
ceived at the Office of the clerk in this city
for filing yesterday.
The first is by the court in bank in the
old probate case OF Henry Brooker, plain
tiff and respondent, vs.. John Taylor, ad-
ministrator, etc, substituted for Henry
Papenhausen, executor. etc., defendant
and appel ant. This was an appeal from
the judgment of the lower court and an
order denying new trial The Judgment
appealed from is affirmed.
The second is the California Title lnsur-
ance and Trust company, respondent, VS..
Charles \. Pauly, assignee CT the San
Diego Railway company, an insolvent
debtor, appellant. The opinion is written
by Commissioner Van Chef, concurred in
by Commissioners Haynes and Belcher.
and affirmed by Justices Mcfarland, Tenn
pie and Henshaw. The judgment and
order of the lower court is affirmed. This
was an action to foreclose a mortgage eX-
ecuted by the San Diego Cable Railway
company, a corporation, to the plaintiff, in
trust. to secure the payment of q
mortgagor. Before the commencement
of the action the railway com-
pany had been adjudged an insolvent
debtor pursuant to the insolvent act of
1880, and all its estate, real and personal,
had been duly assigned to the defendant,
Pauly, VINO was Inc duiy electeu anu quail
fled assignee of the estate of said insolvent
debtor. The plaintiff prevailed in the
lower court, and the defendant, Pauly,
appeals from the Judgment of foreclosure
and from an order denying his motion for
a new trial. The appellant contended that
the court erred in finding that a certain
piece of land, known as the "paviiion
grounds was embraced in the description
of the mortgaged property, and in ordering
sale of those grounds as a part OF the
property mortgaged. This is the principal
point in controversy on the appeal, which
the court holds is not we'll taken.

Judgment for the Defendant.

Judge Van Dyke yesterday gave his de-
cision in the case of the First National
Bank VS.. Amelia G. Maxwell, going into
the matter in detail in lengthy opinion,
and giving judgment for the defendant.
This was an action to set aside deed of
trust made by Mrs. Maxwell by which she
conveyed to Charles A. Baskerville, as
trustee, all her interest in the Lanfranco
estate, except $500 per month, for the u Sc
and benefit of her children. The suit was
brought to set aside the deed on the ground
that it was made without valuable consd-
Grafton and for the purpose of defrauding
the creditors of Mrs. Maxwell, and es-
pecially one Etchepare, who had judg-
ment against her for 0,161.95. Judge
Van Dyke held that deed from wife to
her husband, or father to his children,
could not be attacked on the ground that
the consideration was only love and aifec-
ton, unless direct fraud could be shown.
In this case it was in evidence that Mrs
Maxwell owned other real estate, besides
real property valued at between $4,000 and
$4,000. The bank knew of this
deed of trust, and made no attempt to
collect the amount from other property
owned by the defendant, and therefore,
had no case in the matter of setting aside
the trust deed.

POLICE INVESTIGATION
1t Will Open Today in the Office OF
the Mayor
Outrages Perpetrnted by the Department in
the Name OF Law and Order to
Be Looked Into

The committee of the police commission
Messrs. Long and Wirching, will this after
noon take up the matter of illegal, unlaw-
full and unconstitutional arrests that have
been made by the police detectives, and
perhaps moro particularly by Detective
Goodman.
The investigation will commence at
p. m. in the mayors office. not upon
charges filed against any one officer, but
upon the general allegation that these al
rests are frequently and repeatedly mace
with the sanction and approval OF the head
of the department.
The question that the committee will
first receive Information upon is as to the
powers of the city police in the matter of
arresting and OBTAINING people. Upon
this subject they should first receive some
enlightenment, for all allegations made as
to the whole matter in hand are based
upon certain inaiienable rights guaran-
teed to the citizen by the constitution OF
| the United States, and of the state OF Cali
fornia as well, as by the law of the COM
monwealth.
| 1t is understood that the police depart
ment, in defense of the outrageous deten-
ton of Charles G. Compton, will eDdeavor
| to show that he was not man OF G od
character and that he was of question be
| repute This cuts no figure in the case
| Whatever. SO lawyers Stdte. IDe SOle lGCtS
| to be determined are whether or not Comp
| ton was arrested by due process, and if he
was, whether or not he was given the BEN
eft of his constitutional privileges after he
was placed behind prison bars.
! Mr.. Compton has been requested through
| his attorney, the Hon. NJ. &. G. Munday,
| to be present at the investigation.
! r. j. Colver, the reporter, will be presenl
| to relate the facts of several illegal arrests
that have come under his notice while act
ing in his professional capacity at the
police station. Attorney Foley will also
be present.
,, The police department is making de-
termined effort to steer the investigation
away from the channel in which it should
properly lie. Whether this little plan will
succeed or not remains to be seen.
1t will he remembered that the first in
formation Attorney Munday received from
his client, Compton. that the latter was in
! Jail was from "a person who was released
from Jail, and whom Compton requested to
go to his lawyers Office and tell him where
he was and to come and see him. The
man who gave that information to Lawyer
Munday now complains that the police are
dogging his every footstep and are perse-
cutting him in many ways. He has gone to
lawyer and asked what he can do to Sc
cure immunity from persecution and an
noyance.

The Sister Won Her Suit

The trial of the case of Thomas G.. Nc

time of Judge Shaw, in department five,
yesterday afternoon. Mrs. Busch is the

brought to have an accounting and 10 re-
cover certain moneys advanced to Mrs.
Busch previous to her marriage. McCombe
is purser on the steamship Australia, and
as such earned a good salary, 500 per
month with board, etc. lie entrusted his
savings to his sister, who kept them in the
bank in her own name. The sister alleged
that her brother gave her $50 to make q
trip to the worlds fair, and also gave her
$3.50 to purchase her wedding trousseau.
The brother set up the claim that the
money was only given to the sister in trust
for safe keeping.
Judge Shaw, after hearing the testimony,
gave judgment for the defendants. The
gifts to Mrs. Busch were not unusual, for q
brother in the circumstances in waich Nc
Combe was, to make his unmarried sister,
His honor therefore was obliged to believe
that the insti tuition of the suit was an
afterthought, and he gave judgment ac-
