~HYPNOTISTS READ.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 5.-If the ruling of
Judge Foute, of Atlanta, obtains, hyp-
notisers will have to be very careful
what they order their subjects to do.
The judge holds the hypnotist is di-
rectly responsible for the acts of his
subjects.
During a performance at a local
theatre, the subject of hypnotism
claimed he was a monkey. He
grabbed n hat of a man in the audi
enc and bit a piece out of it., The
professor and his business manager
declined to make good the cost of the
hat and the hypnOtist was prosecuted
before Judge FOute upon a charge of
malicious mischief. The Judge sus-
tanned the charges, and bound the
hypnotist over to a higher court.

New York, Oct. 5.-The Herald's cor
respondent in Rio Janeiro, Brazil, tel
egraphs that there has been a u on
the society known as the Cuida Econ
mica. The funds of the society are
guaranteed by the government, but
numerous persons withdrew their de-
posits.
Coffee producers and exporters are
greatly alarmed at a fall in prices in
Europe. The agricultural congress in
Sac Paulo has proposed the founda-
ton of a bank for the needs of rural
depositors. Foreign capital, it is said
can be procured to open such an insti-
tuition.

TERRIBLE FOREST FIRES.

Pasadena, Cal, Oct. 5.-Forest fires
are raging on the mountains and only
strong efforts have prevented the fire
from crossing Dark canon and sweep
ing the whole front range, on
which the Echo mountain hotel and
Mount Lowery are located. Those
who were fighting the fire report a
solid sheet of flame 45 feet high rush
ing and roaring down the canon and it
was only when 1t reached the low
brush they could do anything with it.
They managed then to check it. 1t
has burned over a strip of twenty
miles long and from two to five miles
wide.
A huge fire is nov burning in San
Gabriel canon, a dense cloud of smoke
obscuring the sky northeast of Pasa-
dena.

question about the result in Iowa or
in our congressional district"
s. Slogy, a well known merchant of
Ontario, Wis, writes:
That you may not be misled by the
eXtravagant claims of the Popocrats
in Il locality, l will say their claims
are all unfOunded, and we shall roll
up in November the largest Republi-
can majority in old Vernon that was
ever given. Old-time Democrats by
the dozens are outspoken for McKin-
ley and sound money. / feel justified
in saying that the outlook was never
more favorable for an overwhelming
Republican majority. My figures on
the state are $4,000. Everything is
coming our way
Ross l. Hammond. of Fremont,
candidate for congress in the Third
district, writes: Il believe that the
tide has set in our direction. and /
would not be surprised if there was a
landslide on election day.
Congressman l.. Danford, who is the
Republican nominee for congress this
year. writes from st. C~lairsville. o.:
Il have been speaking in my dis
trict almost daily since August 1. l
have been over five counties, and,
while the district was doubtful at the
beginning of the campaign, l am sat
isfied that if the election should come
off now the majority for Mckinley
would not fall below 1,500, and if we
make progress in the next five weeks
as in the last five the majority will be
double that mentioned

INDIANS AT WAR.
Choctaws Killing The Squaw-men IL
Get Rid OF Them.

Get Rid OF Them.
Tuskahoma, I. T., Oct. 5.-The troub-
lie which has been brewing for some
months between the fullbloods and the
squaw-men of the Choctaw Nation,
has broken out more violently than
ever and unless indications fail there
will be serious bloodshed. The full
bloods who obtained control of the
council, passed laws cutting the squaw-
men off from their landed property
and made provision for evicting them.
When the first attempt was made at
eviction a few weeks ago, there was a
clash in the streets of this city, in
which several squawmen were killed
and many on both sides more or less
injured. Then comparative quiet reign
ed for a time, but when the attempt to
evict the squawmen was renewed this
week, trouble broke out again. There
has been a number of conflicts during
the past few days and an unknown
number on both sides hurt, while 1t
is reported several were killed. Both
sides have been gathering their forces
during the week and preparing for a
pitchd battle which is expected today
or to morrow. The citizens of this
town have appealed to the Federal au-
thorities and troops will be sent at
once.
Washington, d. c., Oct. 5.-The In
dian office has requested the War De
partment for the use of troops to pre-
vent bloodshed in the Indian Territory
as a result of the row over the Choc-
taw presidential election and the depart
ment has made the necessary order
for the troops to be in readiness to
prevent an outbreak. The Indian Of
ice believes the presence of troops
will stop further trouble.

A FAIR LADY'S CONTEMPT.
Exciting End TO the Baird Case
Before Judge Danger
field.
Mrs. Baird Allowed the Divorce and
Mr.. Baird May Visit the
Children.

Judge Daingerfield has divorced Mrs.
Veronica Baird from her husband, Benja-
min II. Baird, because Of his intemper-
ance. The decree was not granted without
much bitter opposition, however. and Mrs.
Baird's oldest daughter, Mrs. Barry Bald
win IT,, had made herself liable for con-
tempt before the end of the proceedings.
The SUIT had been running two days, and
it wound up in the next thing to row.
The testimony was nearly all taken on
Wednesday, and the attorneys started 10
argue the case yesterday morning. Reel
Terry, counsel for Mr.. Baird, was waxing
eloquent over the woes of his client and
the eceentricities of the temper OF his
clients wife, when he began TO refer to the
marriage OF the daughter, Mrs. Barry
Baldwin, as an elopemepI. and caused
wholly by the treatment which the glrl.re-
celved from her mother. This was too
much Tor the young woman. who sat by
her mothers side during the argument,
and she sprang to her feet.
That's a lie, she shouted.
Terry stopped his flow Of eloquence for q
moment and then resumed his argument.
while for the time the interruption seemed
to have passed unminded.
At the conclusion of the arguments the
court rendered judgment for Mrs. Baird.
) uuge Odlflgerfeld ha2 not forgotten the
interruption, however, and after render.
ing Judgment he proceeded to comment on
Mrs. Baldwin, conduct. He said such a
scene was unseemly and improper, and ne
would find Mrs. Baldwin guilty Of con-
tempt and lnfiict small fine as areminder
OF how to conduct herself IN court
At this Terry rose with plea for mercy,
but he was ordered to sit down. Hurd,
Mrs. Blair's counsel, then wanted to talk
un the subject, but he, too, was ordered to
be silent. Then Mrs. Baldwin got up.
She said she had acted on impulse; that
the statement that she had eloped was
false, for her mother knew all the time
that she was to be married. She said that
If she had done wrong she was sorry and
she would pay The fine. More talk OF
counsel followed, and then Mrs. Baldwin
was allowed to go with a repriniand.
By the decree of divorce Mr.. Baird viii
be allowed to visit his children at inter-
walls

persecution was made by the police. md
it is not understood who could have any
motive In such persecution except the
streetcar managers.
Twenty OF the wheelmen were arrested
on charges OF riding over street crossings
at a speed of more than seven miles an
hour, but the police did not have any
trouble in effecting the capture of the
alleged offenders
Reid says that he was not travelling at a
high rate OF speed, for at Fourteenth and
Howard streets, where he was arrested
the pavement is torn up and rough. and it
would have been unsafe to ride at rate Of
more than seven miles an hour. Besides
that, the policeman who made the arrest
ran after him, and at a seven or eight
mile rate the bicycle would not have been
easily overtaken.
The officers of the League of American
Wheelmen are unwilling TO directly op-
pose the action of the police, as the ordi-
nance is their own, but they insist that the
demand Tor $40 bail in addition to the
bicveles Is entirely unwarranted, The
ends Of Justice would be subserved, they
declare. If the police should demand only
q small amount OF money as bail-the
Oakland example Of 81 or 81 So without
the holding OF the bicycles, having been
found entirely satisfactory.
There is SO much interest in the crusade
against the blcyclists and there were SO
many prisoners that Judge Joachinsen's
courtroom was crowded yesterday morn
ing.
The wheelmen were represented by Jus
tice of the Peace Kerrigan, and when the
cases were called the attorney rose and
made strong plea for dismissal He ae-
knoWledged that some of the defendan is
had been technically guilty OF violating
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1896-02-07

! the ordinance, but he held that the intent
was lacking. The Wheelmen's League
was determined that the law should be en-
forced and would uphold the police in
enforcing il, but he asked that under the
circumstances the cases should be dis
missed as it would be warming to all
bicycIists to obey the law, and some of
those in court had been improperly ar
rested.
Prosecuting Attorney Dare pointed out
that the ordinance was passed at the re-
quest of the wheelmen's associations, and
II seemed strange that members of those
associations should persist in violating It.
The Judge reprimanded the defendants
for not conforming to the provisions of the
ordinances, but as Judge Kerrigan had
argued that they were only technically
guilty he would dismiss the cases
