CITY HALL FLOTSAM
The poll tax collector was at the city
hall yesterday, and in his perambula-
tions ran across Chief Walter S. Moore
of the fire department and Ed Smith, his
assistant. Both declined to pay the tax
on the ground that as exempt firemen
they were not compelled under the law
to do so. The poll tax man went to the
city treasurer and tied up Smiths April
salary. The latter says that he will
test the matter in the courts of the
state.
The report Of City Auditor Teale for
the week ended April 27 shows an i'm
provement in the various funds. In the
cash fund there Is $16,515; salary.

Southern California Railroad
Company Sued for S50,OOO
j. M. KINLEY IS PLAINTIFF
Elected from One Of Defendants Trains
En Route to San Diego
Into Court by the city-Pasadena Elec-
tlon Contest Filed-Court News

Joseph M. Kinley yesterday brought
suit against the Southern California
Railroad company for s50,000 damages,
the papers being filed just before 5
o'clock. Mr.. Kinley, who is a well-knoTn
attorney of this city. some days ago pur-
chased 500-mile ticket from the railroad
company, to be used at will, until the
same was exhausted, for which he paid
$1256. He complied with the usual con-
ditions, signing his name on the back Of
the book as required. The ticket was
used at various times, until but 109 miles
remained. Having business at San Diego
Mr. Kinley boarded one of the companys
trains, and when the conductor came
around to collect the tickets rendered
the 100 mileage remaining as part pay
ment of his fare, at the same time tender
ing the difference to make up the fare to
San Diego in cash. The complaint al
leges that the conductor, instead of hon
oring the ticket, took it up, and insisted
on Mr.. Kinley either paying his fare or
leaving the train and when he demand
ed the return of the ticket refused to sur
render it, intimating that the name on the
back of the ticket was not his own, but
that 1t had been forged. Finally at Ana
helm the conductor put Mr. Kinley and
his baggage off the car when the train
proceeded to San Diego.
Mr.. Kinley further alleges in his COM
plant that he was on his way to San
Diego on important legal business, and
that in consequence of the delay he suf-
fered material damage, to say nothing
of the humiliation and disgrace Of being
elected from the train under the circun-
stances in the presence of large number
of people, and from the unjust and un-
called for insinuations of the conductor,
for all of which he asks $50,000 DAM
ages.

Ebell Society Lecture

Before the Ebell society yesterday, at
p. M, in it's rooms on Main street, r.
b. Baumgart delivered an interesting
and scientific address. The philosophy
of knowledge was under consideration
and the speaker treated the subject from
all standpoints. Mr.. Baumgart propound-
ed the questions of Hypatia: Where
are we? What am I? What can know: ::
Where am loved? and treated of them
in a lucid manner. The various theories
of the origin or creation Of the universe
were expounded, the atheistic or se1f-ex-
istence, pantheistic or self-created and
the theistic which says that the universe
was created by external agency.
He quoted extensively from the an
cient and modern philosophers, Algosolli,
the Arabian down to Spencer. ITO
know more man must be more" and de-
spite Mr.. Baumgart's reasoning the SUBJ
ject was left unsettled. After the lee
ture he answered questions propounded
by the audience, which consisted almost
exclusively of ladies.

THAT BELLBOY BURGLAR
Stolen Diamonds and Jewelry Recovered
by the Police
Officer Reynolds' Clever Cspture-The Hotel
del Coronado Systematically Plum.
dered by the Gang

"A complaint alleging grand larceny
will be sworn out against George Wore,
the 18-year-old bell-boy whose arrest
on Main street Tuesday night was ex-
clusivly mentioned in yesterdays Her.
aid. When officer Reynolds captured
him Wore was trying to dispose of q
diamond pin which had been stolen from
o. T. Johnson Of the Westminster while
he was guest Of the Hotel del Coro-
nado during the hotel mems visit to San
Diego.
Mr.. johnson occupied room lat, and
while attending the banquet given to
the bonifaces, lost his Jewel. AS stated,
there were at least four in the gang
who were systematically robbing the
hotel guests, and all were discharged at
the same time. They left San Die
go. came to this city and took lodgings
at 321 Temple street. His companions
left for San Francisco three days ago,
and from Vore's statement took with
them a large amount of stolen property.
Officer Reynolds. who made the arrest,
first had his suspicious aroused by the
boys actions and maneuvers in trying
to sell the pin. He went into one
pawnshop and offered it for low price
and was directly accused by the pawn
broker of stealing the article. At this
he snatched the pin and ran. When
first taken into custody he said the dia-
mond was given him by a relative, but
later in the evening was taken into the
private Office OF Chief of Detectives
Moffitt and closely questioned. While
there he broke down and acknowledged
that the pin was stolen. While Chief
Glass and the detectives stepped aside
to consult moment, Wore dropped sew
eral other pieces of jewelry into spit
toon, but was discovered in the act.
On examination a pearl brooch, one
child's ring set with pearls. one ring set
NUrif ~ 1f~ i
mond shirt stud were found where he
had thrown them. All these articles
are evidently Of the plunder the gang
secured, but are believed to constitute
only small part of the whole. Wore stat
ed that he was but tool in the hands
of his older accomplices and that the
above was merely his share of the stuff
stolen while they were employed at the
big hotel.
Word was sent to San Diego Of the
capture and a reply was received that
an officer would come up Immediately
for the prisoner.

Captain James Convicted

Captain James was yesterday convict
ed in the United States court before
Judge Wellborn of sending obscene mat
ter through the mails. James is the pub
Usher of a nondescript sort of paper
which he calls the Non-Partisan the like
of which does not exist perhaps in the
United States, and some time ago print
ed a most salacious article under the
heading Ripe and Unripe Women. and it
was for sending copies Of this paper con-
tanning this article through the mails
that he was indicted. AS his defense,
James claimed that he did not deposit
the paper containing the obnoxious ar
ticle in the postoff1ce, and introduced
some character testimony. The jury was
only out about tv "ty minutes, and
stood eleven to one conviction on the
first ballot. A short time ago James had
a copy of the Bible sent to him through
the mails, and afterwards printed quo
tations from the Songs of Solomon,
which he claimed were in the same strain
as his article.
James was locked up in the county jail
last night. His attorney will make mo-
ton TOR a new trial this morning.
