MEAT INSTEAD OF CATTLE.
Supreme Court Defines the Differenc
Between the Quick and the Dead.

Supreme Court Defines the Difference
Between the Quick and the Dead.
0. L. Smith of Mendocino County will
be given another chance to tell how he and
Andrew Spoerner carried home another
mans steer, for the Supreme Court has re-
versed the order denying him a new trial.
He is now serving four years sentence in
the penitentiary for his offense, but he
will fare better when his case comes up
again.
The evidence showed that Spoerner billed
the steer without Smiths knowledge or
assistance, but that afterward, when he
told Smith, Smith helped him to cart it
home and salt it. Both men were charged
with grand larceny and Smith was con-
victed.
In instructing the jury the lower court
laid down the rule that as Smith had as
sisted to carry away the beef, knowing it
had been illegally killed by Spoerner, he
was guilty as an accomplice.
The Supreme Court defines grand lar
ceny as the taxing away of live cattle. the
taking OF property from another's person,
or the taking OF property valued at $50 or
over. To constitute grand larceny, says
the Supreme Court, the cattle stolen must
be alive, otherwise it is merely the stealing
of meat, which, unless it be of the value of
$50 or over, cannot be called grand larceny.
1t was found that Smith was not concerned
in the actual killing of the beef, and he
could therefore not be held under the pro-
vision which refers to cattle.
The decision practically reduces Smiths
crime to petit larceny.

quiet affair. Miss Shook is sister Of
Charles E. Shook, the District Attorney of
Alameda County, and is one of the most
popular young ladies of the A thens of the
Paci fic.
Mr.. Williams is one of the best known

Mrs. French said that she did not think
Mrs. Eaton intended to keep the boy, and
could not account for Mr.. Eaton's actions.
"He has probably had some troubl e
with his former wife," said Mrs. French,
"and seeing her on the street with the
child, grew angry and took it away. The
little fellow is here again, his father having
brought him back this afternoon Just be-
fore dinner.
The troubles of the Eatons were re-
hearsed in the divorce courts not long ago
when Duncan B. Harrison, well. Known
throughout the United States as play
wright. actor and manager, was named as
principal correspondent. Eaton accused
his wife of many misdeeds, and claimed
that Harrison and Elliott Sanford wrecked
his home.
Harrison threatened to sue Eaton for
damages, but nothing ever came of the
matter. When the divorce suit was tried
before Judge Hebbero he granted the lady
divorce.
Mrs. Eaton has been threatening to take
the child from under the care of Mrs.
French, and Eaton claims it was for this
reason he took the boy away from her.

year Rubber Company as City agent, and
is quite well known about town, having
been the plaintiff in sensational divorce
suit against Mrs. Minnie S. Eaton, in
which the defendant, Mrs. Eaton, was
granted the divorce. The court awarded
the custody of the little boy to Mrs. J. M.
French, residing at 332 Haight street,
under the condition that both the father
and mother could see the child, but not
take il away.
Eaton was driving down Market street
in buggy yesterday, and when near the
Palace saw his former wife leading the boy
down Market street toward the ferry. The
enraged husband whipped up his horse,
and when near the couple leaped out of
the buggy, grabbed the child, and jumping
back into the rig, started away at wild
pace. The incident happened in such a
short space of time that it was all over
before the people in the vicinity realized
what had happened. Mrs. Eaton began to
shrek at the top of her voice, and in mo-
ment quite crowd collected. Eaton and
the child were already far away, and the
lady refused to give her name or say any,
thing about the matter.
Eaton turned the horses heads toward
the beach, and took quite long drive,
hnally taking the child back to Mrs.
French's home on Haight street.
Mrs French was seen last night, and
said Mrs. Eaton had called at the house
about IL o'clock that morning to see the
child. She took the young one out saying
that she would bring it back before dinner.

Mr.. Bouvier, who presided at the meet

made for number of meetings to be held
next week and during the week following,
at which reasons would be given why the
Wilmerding School should be located
here. He was sure the project would be
crowned with success. The regents of the

the matter on the table for a month, and
since the meeting a number of the regents

expressed his individual conviction that
the school would ultimately be established

CARS ON DIAMOND STREET
The Market-Street Company to
Extend the Castro.
Street Line.
Noe Valley Residents Seized With
Boulevard Intentions on Their
Own Account.

The Market-street Railway Company
has in contemplation the extension of its
Castro-street line from its southern ter
minus at Twenty-sixth street to connect
with the Mission road at its junction with
Diamond street.
This additional link will be made by the
equipping of an electric line from Castro
street at either Twenty-fifth or Twenty
sixth streets. The exact route has not
been positively decided upon vet.
From Diamond street near Castro, how
ever. the line will run along Diamond
street to Mission, as this is the only street
that has been cut through that portion of
the hill west of Noe Valley. Work would
probably have been commenced by the
railroad company before this were it not
that the Spring Valley Company is about
to tear up the street for the purpose OF
putting in main service pipe. This done,
the construction force from the railroad
company's department will proceed to lay
tracks and string wires for the construc-
ton of the Castro street line over the hill,
tapping new section heretofore inacces-
slble SO far as streetcar accommodation
was concerned. With this new branch
and the old-established lines there are now
four branches of electric lines tapping this
section.
The San Mateo line on Cue rrero, Thir-
tieth and Chenery streets. the Twenty
ninth-street continuation of the Mission
street line. the Twenty-second street
branch of the same and the Eight eenth-
street branch of the San Mate O line with
the now proposed extension of Castro on
Diamond, will be the means of building
a section of this City that few years ago
was grazing ground for mich cows and
sportive goats.
Even the residents out there ara now
getting the boulevard fever and nothing
less than Dolores-street boulevard will
satisfy their ambition. They point with
pride and pleasure to the commanding
width of this street, which has correspond
ing dimensions with Van Ness avenue. and.
as they claim. for mere trifing expendi-
ture in cutting down the hill between
Twenty-third and Twenty sixth streets, no
prettier boulevard could be found in the
City. This they say will give an outlet
for the Mission people to get to the Golden
Gate Park and to the Western Addition
without the necessity of coming down to
Valencia street.
Others there are on Mission street who
are clamoring for police station in that
section known as the Mission road and the
Fairmount District.
All. however, have lofty and commenda-
Bile prete on the growth and beau
ties OF their respective sections.

OUT. FOR RARE CUR|OS.
An Expedition From Stanford
University to Go to Far
Kamchatka.
Will Go on the Kotik in a Week.
Timothy Hopkins Has Furnished
the Money.

Stanford University hopes to profit by
another scientific expedition. A week
from to-day the schooner Kotik, of the
Russian Sealskin Company, of which G.
M. Grunwaldt is general manager, will sail
for Kamchatka.
She will have on board two students of
the Stanford University. who are going out
to collect scientific curios IN that new and
strange land.
The young men will make a speciality
of zoology, and therefore will spend much
time in studying the fishes but they will
dip little into geology and botany also if
they run up against any which strikes
them as unusual.
For a good while Stanford has looked
longingly at the sailing of the Kotik and
other vessels of the sealskin fleet.
1t was looked upon as a good opportun-
ity to make conquests in far country.
The trouble was, however. that with all
the other expeditions and expenses gener-
ally of the university she didn't have the
money.
AT this iuncture Timothy Hopkins came
forward and threw himself into the breach.
He guaranteed to pay all the expenses of
the two students during the time they may
be out, including the cost of the requisite
paraphernalia.
President Jordan at once made arrange
ments with C. M. Grunwaldt. the general
manager, and now all is serene. 1t is said
that student named Williams, who has
been out on various fish-hunting expedi-
tions, will probably be one of the students
who will 20 to Kamchatka. Who the
other one will be is not known.
The students will be gone six months.
The expedition is expected to COST all tod,
so it is said, som mewhere near $4,000.

Office. He submitted voluminous report
Yesterday and received instructions from
the Grand Jury to continue work. The
Jury declined to say where the expert was
ordered.
While the Grand Jury was in ses-
sion District Attorney Barnes was
called out for conference with Cap
tain Lees. 1t is understood that
Lees has placed in the possession of the
District Attorney. for Grand Jury use,
some important facts connected with the
killing of an alleged burglar by Frank
Miller The jury will probably investigate
to ascertain all the facts and circumstances
Of the tragedy.
The Grand Jury went into Judge Slack s
court yesterday and reported three indict-
ments. Carl w. Won Tiedeman and Harry
Wilkins were indicted for perjury and the
bail of each fixed at $4,000.
Two weeks ago THE CALL told the story
of Mrs. Sarah r. Spencer's appearance be-
fore the Grand Jury and her production of
positive proof that she was in Chicago
when Harriet P. Christy's name was
forged in March, 1894, in this City, to an
instrument conveying block of land in
the Richmond. district to one Horace e..
Pratt.
In the trial of Tiedeman in the Superior
Court, Department IL, July, 1895, a
photograph of Mrs. Sarah R..Owen (now
Mrs. Spencer) was produced, and both
Tiedeman and Wilkins swore positively
that it was the photograph of the woman
who introduced herself as Harriet P.
Christy. She was then introduced to Lee
d. Craig. the notary. as the owner of the
property. The Grand Jury was convinced
by the testimony of numerous witnesses
that Tiedeman and Wilkins willfully COM
mitted perjury.
The third indictment was that of Felix
Truett for assault with deadly weapon.
He cut Jean Garrigus in the neck, but
somehow managed to get clear in one of
the police courts. Truett's bail was fixed
at $1,000.
The case of Thomas R. Ashworth,
Superintendent of Streets, against whom
an accusation of official misconduct was
laid by the Eldridge Grand Jury, will
come by order of court, before the present
jury, of which Frank Maskey Is foreman.
The subject was not considered beyond
informal discussion yesterday.
