THE "TIMES" AGAIN
Mrs. M. Brady Having Another Try
for the $4,000

Mrs. Mary Brady Of San Diego is a
slayer and is again in evidence. OF "for-
tunes cap she's not the very button"
so far, at least, as her damage suit
against the Times Mirror company is
concerned.
Yesterday the case was called for the
fourth time in Judge York's department
and another try will be made for that
$4,000 claimed as damages. The story
Of Mrs. Brady's grievance has been told
and retold so often as to be the common
property Of everyone. In the course of
an absolute equality Of the parties be-
fore the law it might be wished that tho
hoodoo indications were not so strong
around the case. But there is no deny
ing the fact that Mrs. Mary Brady has
played in hard luck in this regard. Upon
the first trial Of the case the jury return
ed verdict for $1,000 in favor of the
plaintiff. The defendant company was
about to appeal the case, but as the
plaintiff was not positively aching to
take $1,000 when there was bare posibil-
ity of her getting $4,000, she desired a
new trial just about as much as the de-
fendant. The second trial resulted in a
hung jury. The third trial progressed a
little way and was then busted" by the
legal misconduct of Juror Moss, who in
sisted during the noon recess in talking
about grievance-real or supposed-of
his son against Colonel Otis. That meant
that the trial had to be begun all over
again, and when the case went to the
jury these gentlemen tied their brains up
in bow knots trying to arrive at def
mite conclusion. They got as far as to
4 in favor Of the defendant and then they
stuck fast. They were discharged. and
now once more this case bobs UP serene
ly on the legal horizon. and the following
good men and true were yesterday
sworn to have crack at it:
Hiram Beach, c. I. Mcintyre, Frank
e. Adams Charles F. Stuart, C. w. Sex
ton, Charles F. Durr, ]. T. Haddox. T.
]. Ryder, w. 6. Baylie. John Petherick
L. T. Bishop. r. Barber.
General Zach Montgomery again rep
resents the plaintiff, while the defenda MT
Is represented by Senator Stephen M.
White and Henry T. Gage. Plaintiff's $
counsel made a very curious motion inst
before the adjournment of court, thai
had for its motif the gagging of the news
papers. General Montgomery thought
the newspaper accounts of the trial were
calculated to try the nerves Of the Jury
in too acute fashion, and this time e
wanted it understood that no news
paper reporters need apply for admis-
sion to the court room. Judge York is
quite q robust gentleman and he sat
squarely ydown-metaphorically of course
upon the proposition. The public

THE YOUNG DIVORCE
The Decree Not Signed When Death
Intervened

| A new and what appears to be q very
| unfortunate turn has been taken in the
case of the Young divorce Charles H.
Young, the plaintiff in the case, during
the trial had to battle with the disease
that has afflicted him for years. On
Saturday Judge Van Dyke ordered a de-
cree in his favor, but he was too i'll to be
in court. When the news was conveyed
to him at the home of George Hooser on
Twenty-seventh street he seemed as If
perfectly contented, but the stimulus
| that had kept him up had been with
drawn, and at 1850 a. m. yesterday he
passed away as peacefully as if he had
just fallen asleep.
With his death matters become just a
trifie complicated. Yesterday morning
General Pierce and Attorney Gould,
counsel for Mrs. Young, appeared before
Judge Van Dyke and asked that the
minute order entered on Saturday be
altered. They contended that the court
had granted the decree conditionally;
that when the amount of the support of
the child that had been given to the
mother on account Of the fathers feeble
condition, and the attorneys fees had
been fixed, the decree should be entered
If this had been allowed there would,
of course, have been no divorce other
than that made by death. but Judge Van
Dyke refused to permit the change to be
made and stated that the minute order
recording the divorce to the husband
was correct.
But there comes in nice law point
The decree and findings were to have
been signed yesterday and would have
been if Young had lived, but now it Is
moot point whether the court has legal
power to do so and have the decree re-
corded showing there was a divorce. The
case is so unusual that the exact status
of the matter is not quite clear.
Young has been in the last stages Of
consumption for some time Yesterday
morning a telegram was sent to his
brother George at st. Louis, the only
close relative he had in the world, and
an answer was received saying he would
leave for Los Angeles at once. Messrs.
Marble and Phibbs, who have repre-
sented the deceased in the divorce suit,
intend to fulfill their trust to the dead
man and have the divorce made absolute
If possible, but it remains to be seen how
fortunate they may be in this direction.
The funeral will take place on Sunday
next from Twenty-seventh street, of
which due notice will be given elsewhere.

he LOVED POKER
Suit to Recover $11.s76 From County
Surveyor Wright

The suit of Elizabeth A. FZdgkins
against County Surveyor E. T. Wright
came to trial yesterday before Judge
Van DYKE and a jury in department
four.
The plaintiff claims that between Jan
uary, 1892. and February, 1894, she paid
out at the instance of defendant and
for his benefit the following sums: TIC
the State Loan and Trust company, $500;
First National bank, $6645; and Farmers
and Merchants bank $393167 In July
1894, Mr.. Wright filed his petition in
insolvency and received his discharge
from the court on June 80, the following
year.
The plaintiff alleges that at the time
when Mr.. Wright filed his petition he
knowingly and with intent to defrauc
his creditors omitted to file true sched-
ule Of his property. There were eight
shares of the Sixth District Agricultural
Fair association. at that time worth only
$780, but now worth $4,000, and 400 shares
Of the Cucamonga Fruit Land company
alleged to be worth $30, 900. He also
failed to name the plaintiff as one OF
his creditors, and she claims she had re
knowledge Of his having received his
discharge, and now asks that the court
award her judgment for $11,s76.e7, with
interest, and that the decree of court
cischarging Mr.. Wright from in nsolven-
oy be vacated and annulled.
Much of the testimony yesterday was
interesting, as showing the decided pre-
dilection the defendant had for a game
Of poker in the days gone by. According
to the testimony Mr.. Wright must have
been quite plucky player, for it was
shown that he lost large sums-at one
time losing $1,000 at a crack-without
turning a hair.
The further hearing will be con utinued
today.
