Escapade of Sarah Mclean Causes a
Sensational Damage Suit at
San DieQ0.

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 26.-Miss Sarah Nc
Lean and Mrs. Martha G. Mckenzie,
members of the sam Presby terian
church, are setting the town by the ears
in their suit in the Superior Court. Miss
Mclean sues Mrs. NJ, Kenzie for S25. 000
damages for slander. Mrs. Mckenzie is
alleged to have cast aspersions upon NJ IS
McLean's reputation for morality and
veracity. In her answer Mrs. Mckenzie
alleges that Miss Mclean wore mems
clothes and acted as If intoxicated.
Miss Mclean was on the witness-stand
to-day. She blushingly admitted that he
had worn mems clothes in company with
pretty girl named Murray Bow, but that
it was only in fun.
She created sensation by declaring
that when they went TO Mrs. McKenzie's s
house Mrs. Mckenzie laughed and limited
that if the girls could find another suit of
mems clothes she might join them in the
lark. Mrs. Mckenzie groaned when this
testim ony was ELECTED, and the audience
laughed, as she is 200 pounds in weight
and very dignified.
Later, Mrs. Mckenzie testified, and
turned the tables by stating that Miss
Mclean staggered as ii drunk when she
appeared at her house and that besides
wearing trousers she had a false mus
tache. Her clothing was so dlsarranged
as to be shockinr. and the girls were told
to leave the house. The case will last
through the week, and is being desper-
ately fought by five lawyers.

YUMA, Oct 26. - That another battle
eclIpslng in bloodshed and loss of life that
which occurred at Mammoth Tank yester-
day between Yuma County officers and 260
striking Mexican laborers did not occur
to-day was due solely to the bravery and
GOODNESS of the posse and its leaders which
left last night for the scene OF trouble. By
skiliful maneuvering the Mexican were
surprised at day break and, though 200

Sheriff Greenleaf.

through Spanish interpreter
Only the apparent bravery and determ-
lnation of The posse kept the Mexicans
from charging with knives, clubs and what
firearms they possessed. Had they done
so the damage 10 the ranks of the strikers
would have been dreadful and the posse
must also have sustained some losses.
1t is thought that the mutin Gus foreign

CAGES CURRENCY Plan.
Proposes to Place the Country Un-
eguivocaiy Upon a Gold
8GSi,S.

NEW YORK, Oct. ga Washington
special to the Herald says: Secretary of
the Treasury Gage read to the President
and Cabinet to-day the recommendation
as to financial legislation which he will
make to Congress in his annual report.
Secretary Gage proposes to strike right
at the root OF al the difficulties that em-
barrassed the treasury by recommending g
that the country be put unequyocallY
upon gold basis and the treasury be
taken out of the banking business.
The keynote of the Secretary's theme is
the refunding of the present bonded debt
of the country in gold bonds bearing ~
per cent interest.
He believes bonds which declare on
their face that they are payable, principal
and interest. In gold can easily oe sold at
that rate. As most OF the present bonded
debt bears interest a and per cent, ths
annual saving IN interest by refunding
would be about $l7 000,000.
This would more than pay interest on
the $3.50, 100000 additional 2% per cent
gold bonds which would have 10 be issued
10 carry out the second feature
of the Secre iary's plan, which is
retirement of all outstanding greenbacks
and Sherman notes, so as 10 leave no
notes whatever outstanding which could
De USED 10 oraln the treasury OF gold.
With the retirement of Sherman notes
the Government would be left with 81 yer
bullion in The Treasury vaults purchased
under the Sherman law at a cost of
$lO4 600, 600.
This could either be sold at the market
price could gradually be coined into
silver dollars TO the amount OF $125. 000. 600.
To take the place of the currency which
would be Withdrawn from circulation by
retirement of greenbacks and treasury
notes, Secretary Gage will propose plan
for increasing the national bank circula-
tiOn nuch above its present limit.
lie Will propose that the banks be al
lowed TO issue notes up 10 the par value
OF the Government bonds deposited by
them, and he believes that practically all
of the additional bonds to be lssued to re-
tire the Government notes would be ab-
sorbed by the banks as a basis for circu-
latiOn.

WATER COMPANIES AT WAR.
SUIT for the Possession of the SGc-
ply From a Fork of Kings
Riyer.

FRESNO, Oct. 26.-Another fight is on
between irrigation companies for posses
sion of the water flowing in Kings River.
The trial of the suit of the Stinson Canal
Company against the Crescent Company
was begun in Judge Risley's department
OF the Superior Court to-day, and it will
probably continue three or four days.
Both the companies operate systems in
the southern part of the county, and they
are contending for the water that runs in
what is known as the Lower North Fork OF
Kings River. 1t is one of The numerous
streams into VIII ch the river divides as IL
approaches Tulare Lake. The Stinson Or
ganlZation alleges that the defendant
company has unlawfully built dam SIX
miles above the point where II (the Stin-
son) has been diverting its water and pre-
vented the wafer from flowing down the
channel. The Crescent CONF pany dam mned
the stream IN order to divert water for It's
canals. In its answer the defendant cor
poratlon sells forth that 1t had prior
right to the water in question.
The plaintiff asks tor $40 600 damages
and the abate ement of the obstruction oi
the water course. the case is attracting
mucn interest among all the irrigationists

Appeal for a Verdict of

Schofield's Daughter Weeps When
Her Faith .r's Character Is
AsSailed.
Special Dispatch to THE CALL

SAN JOSE, Oct. 26.-When Attorney
V. A Scheller resumed his argument fol-
the defense in the butcher trial to-day
the same large crowI of spectators that
has thronged Judge Lorigan's courtroom
since the opening of the case was present.
When he attacked the character OF Scho-
field, Mrs. Clark Johnson. a daughter ot
the deceased, wept bitterly and had to b.
led from the room.
Attorney Scheller went over the testi-
mony of each witness. He dwelt on the
long-continued brutality of Schofeld and
his threats 10 kill his wife. He told Of
the time when Schofield's daughter, wi b
babe in her arm, stepped between the
muzzle of a shotgun her father had
pointed at Mrs. Schofield and saved the
latter's life. He argued that butcher
would not have been here a defendant
now but for the bravery OF this young
woman, for he held that Schofield at that
time would have shot his wife but for his
daughters act.
Attorney Scheller ridiculed the ideas
advanced by the prosecution in regard TO
Mrs. Schofield's conduct in remaining
with her husband. He claimed that she
did what any good woman would do in
thus staying with her husband, the father
OF her children. He said Mrs. Schotield
was 10 be commended for her conduct,
for with all his abuse he was yet the father
OF her babes, and she stayed with him and
suffered his cruelty and tried to advance
his interest in the struggle of life.
In regard to Dutcher, Scheiler had
much to say. He held that the boy had
been in the family but short time and
did not know the relations between hus-
band anu wife. Naturally he would be
surprised at the statement of Schofeld on
the return from Watsonville. when be
SAID he would "kIlI the whole ontfit"
when he got home if they didn't do as he
desired about the ranch. Not being aware
of the strained relations between the
coupe and seeing ScEoteld's cruelty after
he returned it was natural for the de-
fendant TO fear for Mrs. Schofie! Ids life
and his own. 1t was this that prompted
Duicher 10 kill Schofeld to protect him
self and Mrs. Schotield. Scheler claimed
the defendant fired IN self-defense, and
asked he jury to acquit him.
District Attorney Harrington followed
with the closing argument. He spoke for
about an hour. when adjournment was
taken. He will finish in the morning and
the case will go 10 the jury about noon.
