is GUILTY OF CONTEMPT
The Supreme Court So Decides
in the Case of Charles
Smith.
His Wife's Appeal for an Increase of
Alimony Refused by That
Tribunal.

The appeal of Josephine Smith, wife of
Charles II. Smith, the Southern Pacific
Railroad cashier, from the decision of the
Superior Court, which denied her an in
crease of alimony, was yesterday denied
by the Supreme Court.
Mrs. Smith entered a suit against her
husband for permanent maintenance of
herself and child. The defendant admitted
having deserted his wife, but charged her
with misconduct of various sorts. The
Superior Court granted her alimony of
S150 per month to support herself and
child.
Later the plaintiff entered court and OBJ
taineu an order of court relieving her of
the child, she claiming that she could not
control it. The youngster was placed in a
school, subject to the order of the court
and Mrs. Smiths allowance was reduced
to $50 per month.
On April 10, 1895, she again appeared in
court, this time asking that her allowance
be increased to 500 per month, and stated
that her husband had paid her practically
nothing for almost two years. She com
planned that she had been forced to go
into debt to support herself and to look
after the wants of the child. The court
denied her motion.
From this decision she appealed to the
Supreme Court, which court sustained the
Superior Courts judgment. 1t was held
that the amount of her allowance could
only be fixed by the original court and
that If she did not receive what was all
lotted her the only recourse would be in
an action against her husband for con-
tempt of court in refusing to obey its order.

GARCIA ASKS A PARDON.
A San Quentin Convict Claims to Be
Innocent of the Crime for Which
He Was Convicted,

Charles Garcia, with a twenty-years SEN
tence before him in San Quentin, has peti-
toned the Governor for an absolute pardon
on the ground that he is innocent of the
crime for which he was convicted.
The circumstances attending his convic-
ton are as follows: On the night of
November 4, 1893, Chinese servant in a
Grant-avenue saloon was held up by two
men on Stockton street, near California,
and robbed of $25 in cash and other
valuables. Despite the fact that it was
dark and the attack upon him quite
sudden Leoung Tom swore that he could
identity the men on sight, which he did
in the persons of Isidor Baldivia and
Garcia. Both were tried before Judge
Wallace and convicted, Notwithstanding
the fact that Garcia's mother swore that
her son was in bed at the time the robbery
took place. In addition to this Baldivia
makes statement in prison that he had
not been in company with his felIow-con-
vict on the night in question, and in fact
did not see him for two weeks prior
thereto, and that he alone committed the
robbery.
On this statement Governor Budd will
be asked to set Garcia free. He belongs to
an old Spanish Californian family, and
prior to his arrest had never been in
trouble with the police.

SAYS HE DIDN'T SAY 1T.

How this world is given to lying
Gen. Ivan n. Walker, Commander
in Chit of the Grand Army of the Re-
public, denies the utterances attributed
to him in regard TO the proposed joint
parade of veterans of the Union and
Confederate armies in New York City
July 4th. He declares he has said
nothing officially or otherwise in OPP
position to the Blue and Gray demon
stration, and says the published reports
TO that effect are base fabrications
pure and simple. 1t is gratifying to
read this, for we could not under
stand how any brave man who had
himself been a soldier could entertain
such sentiments and harbor such bit
ter feelings as Gen. Walker was charged
with. The following explains itself.
In a letter addressed to the editor OF
the Richmond Times, Commander
Walker says:
"Some one has sent me copy OF
your editorial, of March 1st on that
"Parade of the Blue and the Gray"
in which you quote certain statements
