In this country there is a
law preventing infring-
ment on patents. The
Peoples party have no doubt
found out that it commit
ted a grave mistake in not
having the 16 to 1 plank in
their Ocala platform patent
ed. The same year in which
their platform declaring for
Is to l was passed, a resolu-
ton declaring for free coin
age at the same ratio was
introduced before the demo-
cratic national convention
and was summarily voted
down. But Notwithstanding
this fact there are those who
make no pretentions to being
populites are, nevertheless,
advocating the 16 to l policy,
which is embraced in only
one national platform, that
passed by the Peoples party
in 1892, and the same reject
ed by the national demo-
cratic convention of the same
year. However at that time
the peoples party did not
know that it would be an
exemplar, and for that rea-
son may be excused for not
having its 10 to l plank
patented.

A Bad Blucder

charge of assault with intent to commit
rape on the person of Winnifred Graham,
the 5-year-old daughter of j. j. Graham of
Sierra Madre, walked out of department

BILE, as the proper party failed to prepare
an information within the specified time
when he had notice in open court that this
would be necessary, and when the China
man was held on the direct order of the
court to give an opportunity for so doing
When the original information was filed
against the Chinaman before Recorder
Rossiter of Pasadena, it was found that the
name had been omitted, the officer evil
IDENTIFY having forgotten it, or thought the
name of a Chinaman did not make much
difference anyhow. When the matter
came before the superior court, the at
| torney for the Chinaman asked that his
client be discharged ON account of the de-
fective complaint. Assistant District At
torney Williams, on the part of the people,
vigorously protested, and asked for time in
which to prepare new complaint to cure
the defect. Judge Smith was not disposed
to discharge the Chinaman on a techni-
ca ity, if it could be avoided, and made an
order committing the heather to Jail until
yesterday. by which time the new COM
plant was to be fled.
Yesterday when the case was called it
was found that nothing whatever had been
done, and Judge Smith was compelled to
discharge the prisoner, al there was moth
ing before the court ON which he could be
held.

The Pennebaker-Braley Mining Deal Being
Ventilated in the Courts-An Opinion by
the Supreme Court-Court Notes

j. A. Graves, the we'll known attorney,
had rather exciting experience yesterday
with a man named G. T. Price, who had an
interest in mining claim in which MIR.
Graves also had an interest. Some four
years ago Price called at Mr.. Graves
Office and with pistol in one hand and a
deed IN the other, insisted that Mr.. Graves
should buy his interest in the mine, paying
him $500 therefor, The man was got
out of the office, and Attorney John T..
Jones being called in, the matter was set
tied by Price agreeing to leave town and
Jones retaining the pistol, Mr.. Graves de-
clining to prosecute the case. Nothing
more was heard of Price until yesterday,
when he again went to Mr.. Graves office.
and renewed the talk about the mining
deal, saying that he had heard that
Mr.. Graves had said that he should not
make any money out of the mine. AS MIR.
Graves had already given his share of the
mine away to L. d. c. Gray, he told Price
that he did not want to hear any mora
about the matter, and ordered Price out of
bis office. AS he did not go, Mr.. Graves
took him by the arm to lead him out, when
Price struck him violent blow over the
head with his cane. Although somewhat
dazed by the blow. Mr.. Graves promptly
closed with his assailant and punched him
in the face several times, discoloring
Price's optic and at the same time scrap
ing off considerable patch of cuticle from
his right hand.
Later a complaint was sworn out against
Price, charging him with insanity, and the
man was placed under arrest. In the
afternoon he was taken before Judge Nc
Kinley, where he was examined by a COM
mission consisting of Drs. Boynton and
Cochran. 1t was found that Price was
sane on all matters, except possibly the
mining proposition, and he was according
ly discharged.

Arthur Faba, young Italian, on a charge
of reduction. The complaining witness is
Erolenda Guira3o, rather pretty girl,
aged 8 years. The girl was working out
as a domestic when she made the ac-
quaintance of Faba, who attempted her
ruin. After keeping company with the
young woman, Faba finally proposed mat
rimony to her, and she yielded to his
wishes. After accomplishing his purpose,
Faba deserted his victim, refusing to carry
out his promise to marry her or to have
anything to do with her. The girl is now
in delicate condition. A warrant has
been issued for the arrest of Faba, and was
placed in the hands of Constable Yonkin.

supreme Court O,inion

An opinion of the supreme court was re-
ceived yesterday at the office of the clerk
in this city for filing. 1t is in the case of
Amanda p. Everett ct al, plaintiff and
respondents, against the Los Angeles Con-
solidated Electric railway company, de-
fendant and appellant, and the judgment
and order of the lower court is reversed
and new trial ordered. The opinion is
written by Justice Van Fleet, and is con-
cured in by Justices Harrison and Ga
route.
This was an action by the widow and
child of one Charles E. Everett, deceased,
to recover damages for the death of the
latter, caused by his being run over by an
electric car operated by the defendant on
it's street railroad in the city of Los An
geles. and alleged to have been through the
defendants negligence. At the conclusion
of plaintiffs evidence in chief, defendant
moved the court for a non-suit, ON the
grounds, substantially, that the evidence
wholly failed to show negligence on the
part of the defendant, but did establish
affirmatively that the deceased came to
his death through his own negligence, con-
tributing directly and proximately thereto.
The court denied the motion, to which rul-
ing the defendant excepted, and which ex-
ception constitutes the only material
question in the case.
The evidence shows that Everett, on Oc-
tober II, 1894, during the progress of the
races, was riding bicycle along the rail-
road track, on McClintock avenue, in the
University, when he was run down by a
car and killed. The evidence further
showed that the deceased was warned by
cries from persons on the car, as we'll as by
the motorneer ringing the alarm bell, but
failed to turn out from the track in time to
prevent the accident which resulted in his
death. The court holds that it is we'll
settled fact, borne out by an unbroken line
of decisions, that a person riding along a
railroad track must exercise ordinary eau
ton, that the fact that the tracks are down
and that trains are running over the same
is a constant warning. In conclusion the
court says: "Our conclusion is that the
plaintiff did not make out a case emitting
them to recover, and that the refusal of
trial court to grant the motion for nom
suit was an error. 1t may be added that
on examination of the evidence on the part
of the defendant only serves to strengthen
the case as to the negligence of tile de-
ceased, and the absence OF negligence on
the part of the defendant, and makes it
clear that the court should have granted
defendants request to instruct the jury to
find for the latter"

AT the examination the postmaster and

withstanding the confession of the boy
Czaninski, the parents of the Crandall and
Hill boys swore that their children were
home in bed when the robbery took place.
The attorney for young Hill and
kasisgorch, who did not enter the post
office, but who stood outside and watched,

two, but this was refused by the commits

Lottery Schemers Arraigned

j. L. Fulkerson, r. N. Wood and Thomas
Wood, of the United Indemnity Company,
arrested on charge of having violated the
act of September, 1890, in regard to send
ing lottery matter through the mails, were
arraigned before United States Commits
sioner Van Dyke yesterday morning. All
three of the men had spent the previous
night in Jail. The Woods had no trouble
in giving bail, and were soon released.
With Fulkerson, however, it was different,
and it was late in the day before he Sc
cured bondsmen, and was finally released
only to be arrested on another warrant
about o'clock, with bond fixed at $1,000.
Fulkerson made himself generally dis
agreeable about the various offices, using
insulting language and indulging in innuen-
does, and in consequence there was little
disposition to show him any more courtesy
than the law required.
The so-called indemnity company
scheme is quite an ingenious one, and is a
very profitable one for the managers.
Benefits are paid by a system of multiple
members, but the member who draws the
benefit appears SO seldom as to cut but
little figure in the scheme.
