DOING GOOD WORK.
Maps for Distribution Of State and
County Throughout the
EaAt

OAKLAND, CAL, March IA large
and enthusiastic meeting OF merchants
was held last evening to discuss the work
OF the State Development Committee. The
Alameda County delegation was repre-
sented by w. H. Weilbye, G. l.. Fish. j. A.
Button, j. A. Remmel and G. r. Yates
Messrs. Street, Forsyth and Buckingham
of San Francisco were present and spoke
regarding the plans of the association.
Mr.. Weilbye, in speaking of their work,
said:
"The State Developme lent Committee Is
composed of 200 prominent public-spirited
men, representing every county in the
ST ate. The object OF the committee is TO
assist in the development of the various
resources OF the entire State and in estab-
fishing market for it's products; to en-
courage immigration of well-to-do people
and their settlement in good homes and
profitable business; to increase travel from
the East and Europe, and to improve the
facilities for entertaining tourists in all
sections of the State.
"To accomplish their object the asso-
citation is having 100000 line half-tone
Typographical climatic maps of the State
made, on the backs of which are to be
printed accurate and full information
concerning the various counties of the
State. The plan is for each county to pay
for as many of these maps as they desire.
This number is then printed with the
facts OF that county along with a fine half
tone coIored map of the county. These
will be mailed to Eastern addresses direct
as furnished by the county delegations
He then subscribed 500 toward the
fund.- Messrs. Fish, Button and Remmel
followed with like amounts. G. r. Yates
added $50. It is believed the balance OF
the delegation will do as we'll or better
when the paper is submitted to them.
The maps of this county will be the first
issued, and will be samples for other sec.
tions of the State to judge of the value OF
this work, and they will also be the first to
be sent East and will naturally attract at.
tention to this part of the State.

Henry L. Hack of Sacramento. the father

visit to Oakland one day too long. He
came down this morning, after receiving
the telegram from the Coroner, and said
that he had intended to come down to-day

Hundreds of people thronged around
the morgue to-day, trying to get

who had decided to die rather
than be separated, but they were

some part of the day to prevent trouble.
This city has no public morgue and the
establishment of an undertaken is always
utilized as temporary morgue. This
being 50, Coroner Baldwin refuses to let
the curious see the remains of bodies, ex-
cept in cases where they are unidentified.
The crush to-day was so great that the
Coroner was forced to hang out printed
sign, which read: ''Only relatives and
members of the press are permitted to
view the bodies in the morgue."
Because these people took their lives i'll
a tragic fashion" said Coroner Baldwin,
''it is no reason why they should be stared
at by eve:y vulgar and morbid person in
town. Their remains are just as private,
as lar as the public is concerned, as though
they had died natural deaths. IT there

no doubt as to their Identification. There

Johnstone called at the morgue and were
greatly surprised that they should be ex-

him that the youths father had asked him
to hold the body till he arrived from Sac

the same instructions as private case.

OAKLAND, CAL. March Attorney
Hyadc IAN became rather heated in court
to-day NE WAS appearing for Mrs. Nita
Day-Adains IN the suit brought by her
youthful husband, Fred Stuart Adams, to
annul the clandestine marriage contracted
at Martinez. He waxed eloquent in de-
nunciation Of the somewhat .erotic ex-
presslons in the pIeadings describing what
took place at certain little dinners at
which the fair NIta and Freddie were to-
gether and the wine flowed freely.
"I claim,n said he, ''that such aLega-
tons are scandalous, outrageous assault
upon a woman, and an attorney who would
plead such things ought TO be severely
reprimanded. 1t is not proper to go into
what might occur on such occasions. Is
it to be supposed that they would sit like
cold statues or obelisks under such circum-
stances? 1t is not alleged that he W as
flushed with wine when the marriage was
performe ed"
Ex-Judge C. n. Fox replied with some
heat: "As to the personal insults of the
attorney for this woman, | shall not reply
to them, but claim that these are proper
matters to go into upon this trial. This
woman played upon the passions OF an in
fant who had not arrived then at the men
tai condition that would enable him TO re-
sist her Establishments. We take the
proof upon ourselves. She may be thank
ful that it is not more broadly stated"
In reply Attorney Hyndeman said !:
"Hew can we meet such pleadings? If
could attach this young man to the an
swer or make him an exhibit in the case,
if we could it would show what fol-de-rol
this pleading is. 1t is an attempt to make
this case SO disagreeable, TO go into mat
ters III the past which they have no right
to, ana force this woman to capitulate.

and as a man to strike out this language. !"
Judge Frick ordered the words objected
to stricken out, except as to the
fact that she filed him UP
with wine. Some other immaterial
allegations were stricken out. The bal
ance of the complaint was allowed to
stand and the general demurrer was over
ruled. The case will now have to go to
trial unless settlement is effected outside

PRAISE FOR 0LOEN BOURG
The Prospective Duke Receives
Many Congratulatory
Messages.
Woman Suffragists Outline Plans for
Carrying the Constitutional
Observation-Disclosures.

BERKELEY, CAL, March 7.-Congratu-
latory messages by the wholesale have
been sent to-day to Charles Louis Olden-
bourg, the q. G. student, by his many
Berkeley friends, complimenting him on
his prospects of succeeding his uncle to
the title of Duke of luxembourg and OF ac-
quiring all the wealth that goes with the
royal cognomen. The prospective heir
went to Stanford University yesterday
morning on visit to his fraternity BROTH
ers there and to attend the cotillon held
last night. There Is much rejoicing among
his university friends here over the reports
of his good fortune, and to-day "the COM
ing duke" was the talk of the campus.
Numerous theories were advanced as to
what he will do with all his fortune when
he gets it-whether he will build a castle
on the Rhine and dwell in luxury among
his relatives for the remainder of his days
or whether he will erect an observatory on
the crest of some Rocky Mountain peak,
to stand as a monument IN memory of his
love for America.
Though luxembourg has not been in
Berkeley since the public announcement
of his enviable good fortune in THE GALL,
which fact mas made it impossible to have
y
his fraternity brethren state that he does
not altogether relish the idea Of leaving
the United States and his many friends
here for home beyond the Atlantic.
1t was remarked, however, that the pros
pest OF coming into possession of the title
and all the vast riches Of his uncle will
take him back, Notwithstanding his at
tachments here.
The entire chapter of the Greek letter
fraternity of which he is a member went
to Stamford to-day to join the prospective
duke and to offer him their personal con-
gratulations and assist in the merry
making at the Palo Alto institution.

a Ruling of the Supreme Court That
Applies to an Interesting Case
Now Before It.
OAKLAND OFFICE sAnFRAxcrsco CALL,

sos Broadway, March Z.
Louis Muhlner will be tried again for
the murder of Jennie Lewis The opinion
ofzthe Supreme Court in the case of Chris
tian Kuntte contains a paragraph that
settles the case of Muhlner.
After the jury returned with verdict of
manslaughter against the slayer of Jennie
Lewis, Judge Frick refused to accept it.
He created great surprise by his decision,
as 1t was the first time that a jucge in this
county had taken such stand in murder
trial. Judge Frick was satisfied that the
evidence was sufficient to warrant the find
ing of verdict of murder. He therefore
granted new trial on the ground that the
jury had erred IN returning a verdict of
manslaughter.
The opinion upon which Judge Frick
based his order is one of the most peculiar
that was ever delivered from the California
bench. 1t raises question whether de-
fendant has legal right to complain in
the event of verdict OF guilty OF a crime
less in degree than is warranted by the
evidence. He SAID the question whether
the defendant could take advantage OF
such condition was q most important
one, anG he deemed it wise that appeal
sh ould be taken from his order to the Su-
preme Court. He said there was no case
o n record in California III which the ques
ton had ever been decided.
District Attorney Church prepared his
bill of exceptions, and the matter was sent
to the Supreme Court, and will probably
be reached about June. The decision rem
dered by the court Thursday contains the
following sentence:
In the exercise of thar power he should
always satisfy himself that the evidence.
as whole, is sufficient to sustain the ver-
dict found, and if in his sound judgment
it does not, he should unhesitatlDgly say
so any set the verdict aside. "
The Judge, by the opinion, is practically
given unlimited power, and If he be not
convinced beyond a reasonable doubt,
then he may set the verdict aside, even
though it be unanimous.
1t was thought the twice in jeopardy"
plea might prevent Muhlner from being
tried for any crime greater than that OF
the verdict, viz, manslaughter. This
theory is now exploded. and, unless. the
Supreme Court reverses itself in few
weeks, which is not very likely. the second
trial of Muhlner will be held as though he
had never been tried. Under these cir
cumstances, 1t is yet possible that Muhl-
ner may be found guilty of murder IN the
first degree, in accordance with Judge
Erick's idea.
