TAYLOR IN LUCK
The Prosecutions Witnesses Fail to
Come to Time

There was q great time in the town
sb'p eourt yesterday morning In fact
tAe three-cornered row was nightly
divsrt!ng. inasmuch as the case which
provoked the breeze petered out, aud
same compensation was needed in the
way of entertainment
Walter Taylor, who will soon be on
trial for an assault to commit rape upon
q little girl, was. up for examination on
the similar charge of having committed
a rape upon Blanche Cunningham on
the 18th of March. The little girl
Blanche won unenviable notoriety by
reason of her escapade at Chino in con, =
pany with Laura Petrie and the two
boys with whom they ran away.
Blanche, upon going upon the stand,
said she didn't want to testify, and that
she didn't remember the details of what
took place in March. That irritated Dis
tr!ct Attorney Williams and he told her
rot to talk about not remembering.
"I'll get complaint against her for
perjury" he said, addressing nobody in
particular, "and teach her lesson; she
can't come that way with me. think
she's been doctored."
Attorney RIB. Treat protested again st
the witness being bulldozed.
She's mere cipher" responded Mr.
Williams "I'll not let the state of Cali
fornia be tampered with"
Well, can't remember" ventured to
intcrpose the 1S-year-old witness.
Give me q blank complaint" said
Mr.. Williams determinedly. and then
Blnnche's memory returned in some de-
gree. She stated that on the 17th Of
March she went to Taylor's rooms on

Intoxicating liquors, the evidence did
not show that the habit had been such
as to impair her intellect.
A couple OF days before the execution
of her will she was injured In fire
which occurred In her house while she
was beyond doubt in a state of intoxica-
tion, and she afterwards died from the
effects of the wounds then received. She
was badly burned on the thighs, and al
most her entire abdomen was blistered,
and spot on 1t the size of silver dollar
was burned through the skin. 1T is
possible that these wounds" says the
court, might have had the effect Of de-
stroying her testamentary capacity, but
the question Is. did they have that ef-
feet? And the evidence abundantly
shows that they did not"
At the time of the trial Banker He'll
man testified that owing to John Will
sons Irregular habits he was active in
persuading him to make over all of his
property to his wife. From thence on
all deeds bore the signatures Of both
husband and wife, and John Wilson ad-
ministered the property just as before,
and the wife never contended that the
property was hers in her own right No
testimony was put forward to rebut this
testimony, and the supreme court does
not touch upon 1t directly. Incidentally,
however. the court says: "A will can
not be upset, because, in the opinion Of
jury or court, 1t is unnatural" and in a
kindred case the court says: ut is we'll
to remember that one has the right 10
make an unjust will, an unreasonable
will, or even a cruel will"
The opinion is written by Justice
Mcfarland and concurred in by Justices
Temple and Henshaw.
While the effect Of this ruling of the
supreme court may result In retrial of
the case. such action may be anticipated
by the suit now in court, which was
brought to have the estate Of Bridget
Wilson declared community property.
Should such pronouncement be made,
the fighting over the will itself would Of

THE ARSON CASE
Motiveless Crime Near
Duarte

Ezra N. Cokahnour was for the Sec
ond time brought to trial in department
one yesterday, on the charge of arson in
having set fire to residence belonging
to John Baxter on April IL, 1897. The
property was situated near Duarte and
was built at boom prices for $540, upon
which $500 insurance had been obtained,
the furniture being insured for $500 addi-
tional. This insurance has been paid up
and so Mr.. Baxter is not out Of pocket.
The defendant had worked for Bax-
ter until a few days previous to the fire,
and when arrested told the officer that
he went there to gain possession of some
jewelry in the house. When examined
before Justice Phillips he made state
ment confessing his guilt, but repudiat-
ed it when the case came to trial.
No one was living in the cottage at the
time, and Baxter stated, on the stand,
that he didn't object to Cokahnour 60
ing and sleeping there. What motive
may have animated defendant in burn
ing the place down is moot point, but
that he did so the jury determined yes
terday. finding him guilty in the second
degree.

Dresser.
Claude c. Walker, late supreme court
clerk Of Michigan, and now connected

Banning street and remained there ali
night. The essential facts the witness
protested to remember, but the details
wer misty to her and she could not re-
member.
Mr.. Treat, upon cross-examination, got
the witness to confess that the 17th Of
March was not fixed in her memory by
any particular fact in connection with
the day, and conceded that her troubles
had made her memory go indistinct that
she couldn't swear positively what took
place on that day.
Mrs. Gilman, the mother of the girl.
stated that Blanche had run away sew
eral times before the day when she went
to Taylor's and then on to her grand
mothers. Being asked specifically what
Blanche said regarding Taylor's ac-
tions, witness said that her daughter
contradicted herself and told such con-
Trajectory stories that witness thought
the girl had been so talked to that she
had become quite confused.
That made Mr.. Williams very mad
again. He charged the witness with
wanting to square" the case.
Didn't you come begging for a COM
plaint," he ased, "and now you go back
on it?"
mo. Mr.. Williams" sharply retorted
the witness. II begged for no COM
plant in this case. did ask that my
child be brought back from Chino, but
she was made 30 notorious by the news
papers that she asked me to stop It..
She said she'd try and be good girl.
and so wanted to try and help her to
build up her reputation again."
"You expect to square the case at
San Bernarddno, then, the same as you
are trying to do here?" inquired coun-
sell
The court vainly interposed to call a
halt in the irregular proceedings.
mo, SIR" answered the witness, "but
I am going to help my child build up
her"
But such persistency was too much for
Mr.. williams, and he sprang to his feet
and. branding witness and her family
as ''low down set,' ne said, "I'll dis
miss this case"
"Well, don't know whether I'll dis
miss 1t or not" ventured Justice Young.
While this interchange Of civilities had
been taking place Mr.. Treat, defendant 8
counsel, had added his view to the hub

ing more to do with it,"
"Well, you are not the whole Of the

court, but upon the showing made
the defendant could not be held, and
Mr.. Williams moved that 1t be dismissed,
saying that he believed it a squared"

Mr.. Treat said he stood prepared to
show by three witnesses that Taylor
was not at home on St. Patricks night.
That Blanche that night slept with the
girl Rachael, in charge Of the rooms.
and, counsel added, he didn't wonder,
after the life the girl had led for two
years that her memory was shattered
and that she ever told the truth at all
The case was dismissed.
