Is GRANTED A NEW TRIAL
Supreme Court Overrules the Decision
Against the Sacramento Chief
of Police.

The Supreme Court in bank Yesterday
overruled the decision OF the lower court
in the case of John B. Rodgers, Chief OF
Police OF Sacramento, and granted the de-
tendant new trial.
In 1892 Rod gers was elected to the office
of Chief of Police, but il was afterward
disc ovcred that at the time of his election
he had been a citizen of the United States
less than ninety days. By due process OF
law he was removed from the Office, but
the Board of Trustees of the city, exercis-
ing their power to fill a vacancy, appoint
ed him to The position.
Warren F. Drew, the former Chief, then
claimed that there was no vacancy to fill,
as his term of Office did not legally expire
till the election of his successor. There
upon the Attovney-General brought ac-
ton to oust Rodgers, and the Superior
Court dec ded that Drew was emitted to
the office and overruled motion for
new trial.
Mr.. Rodgers appealed the case, and yes.
terday received the verdict in his favor.
