Under the waving boughs of the green

down and Frightening up the face of ma
ture, the mortal part of Nine. Mezzara,
the adopted daughter of Louis Philippe
and Queen Amelia. the last of the roy alist
rulers of France, was laid away yesterday
afternoon.
No ordinary burial ground was fit for
such as she-the woman who nursed tho
soldiers of the Union in their illness and
distress, with no requiem for those whose
spirits took flight but the ceaseless roar OF
guns and the loud bursting Of shells.
And neither did she receive an ordinary
burial.
She was laid to rest at the Presldio Gem
etery. side by side with those who gave, as
she, their lives in the service OF Uncle
Sam. And the soldiers gathered and
stood by hat in hand, listening to the last
sad rites as they were performed by the
minister.
AT O'Clock the friends gathered at 1404
California street. ner late residence, TO do
honor to the dead woman. The services
were short and simple. Rev. DR.. Wells
told In few words the story of the fam
Gus woman's life, and then gave short
prayer for the peace OF her soul.
The rooms were beautifully decorated
with flowers sent in by the dead wcman's s
friends. They were banked in profusion
around and on the casket, and the air of
the room was heavy with their sweet, COM
mingled odor.
The flowers were in various designs
crosses, wreaths. bouquets and solid banks
Among those making floral offerings were
the pupils of Miss Hamlin's school, DR..
Charles Brigham, Mrs. Edward Hopkins,
Mr.. and Mrs. Homer S. King, Miss Beard,

CREDITORS ARE LENIENT.
CobIentz, Pike Co. May Tide Over
Their Emharras sment.

CobIentz, Pike & Co. May Tide Over
Their Embarrass
The creditors of the EN- barrassed whole
sale LIQUOR firm of Coblentz, Pike & Co.
developed a disposition yesterday to deal
leniently with the house rather than to
force it to the wall, and there now appears
to be fair chance for it to survive the
disaster and avoid insolvency.
This Is practically the only new de-
velopment in the unfortunate firms
affairs since the publication in yesterday s
CALL of its financial troubles.
Tne creditors have agreed that aggressive
measures at this time would result more
seriously for themselv than they had
previously anticipated. Besides, The
friends of Boaz Pix, who since the re-
cent death OF Joseph Coblentz has had
sole charge of the business, have come to
the front for him en- masse, and are USING
every influence to obtain Tor him chance.
The firms Liabilities at The present time
will foot up nearly 100000, but an ex-
animation OF the books shows the firm has
good bills outstanding which W i'll about
cover this amount.
Mr.. Pixies ! opularlty in the business
would have much 20 do with the ,eniency
being accorded him. Besides, if an i'm
mediate adjustment should be demanded,
scarcely over % cents on the dollar could
be realized by the creditors, whereas, by
exhibiting a little patience, they might
realize considerable more. At least, this
Is the conclusion they have reached of
their own accord, and Mr.. Pike was notified
yesterday tnat he might continue to con-
duct the business until further notice.
This means that no obstacles will be
thrown in his way until after the probate
proceedings in connection with the Cob
ientz estate are sufficiently under way to
determine whether or not there will be
any legal entanglemen,s.

WON ON A NEW
POINT OF LAW
Santa Rosa Will Have to
Pay Her Water Works
Bonds.
Important Decision Rendered by
Judge Morrow in the Cir
cult Court.
It Means the Saving of About $3.50, 900
to the S:ligmans of New
York.

In giving judgment in favor of the Sell
lgmans OF New York for $1l, 900, principal
and interest due on bonds issued by the
Monday last passed upon novel point in
law raised by Jesse w. Lillenthal, the at
torney for the New York bankers.
1t was claimed by Lilienthal that where
tax had been levied and collected for a
specific purpose, no taxpayer had the
right, subsequent to such levy and collec-
tion. to intervene for the purpose of pre-
venting the application of the money SO
raised to the pawn ment of the indebtedness
for which the fund was created.
When the city of Santa Rosa decided to
construct its own water works instead of
purchasing the plant of Mark Mcdonald
and those interested with him, it author
lied the issuance of S165,00 worth of
bonds, which were bought by the Sci ig-
mans.
The first lot of bonds m atured in Decem-
Der. 1885, and were duly paid, and also in
terest on the entire issue to that date.
In the meantime five or six different
suits were brought by Mcdonald to re-
strain the work of construction on the
new plant and to restrain the city from
paving the interest on the bonds and the
bonds when they matured. The suits
were first brought in Santa Rosa.
Then on the plea that the judges there
were biased Judge Dainger erfield OF this
City was selected to try the case. After
that application was made to remove the
case from Sonoma to Marin County on
the ground that the Sonoma County
judges were taxpayers and, therefore, in
terested in the matter to be al Indicated
upon. The matter was then transferred
10 the court of Judge Angelotti.
Last January Lilienthal, as attorney for
the bondholders. brought an action in the
Federal court for the amount due his
defendant. The defendant was given
thirty days to answer. After the answer
was filed Lilienthal made application to
Judge Morrow for judgment on the plead
ings.
Previous to this Mcdonald asked leave
to intervene on the ground that the city
of Santa Rosa was in collusion with the
bondholders, would not honestly defend
the suit, that the bonds were illegal, and
that whether or not the city was honest
he, as a taxpayer. had sufficient interest
to intervene.
At this stage of the proceedings the at
torney for the plaintiffs made the point
that, irrespective of any contention made
by the intervenor and regardless of the
truth of anything he alleged, when the
bonds were allowed 10 be issued and the
tax had been levied and collected for the
purpose of paving those bonds, 1t is TOO
late for any l<xpayer to complain.
Judge Morrow decided the case fatty on
this point and gave judgment for plaintiff
Yesterday Mcdonald filed bill in
equity to restrain the execution of the
Judgment.
The next proceeding of the plaintiff will
proba bly, be to ask for q mandsmus order
ing the City Treasurer to satisfy the judg-
ment out of the funds in his hands raised
by means of the special tax levy.

A SPEEDY MISSION CAR.
1t Struck Edward L. Levey's
Wagon and Crippled
Him.
Witnesses Who Testified That the
Motorman Was Confused and Made
No Effort to Stop

There was another interesting session OF
the Edward L. Levey suit against the
Market-street Railway in Judge Bahrs'
court yesterday.
Yesterdays testimony tended TO estab.
lish the plaintiffs contention that the car
was going at rate of speed greater than
is allowed by law, and that no warning Of
the cars approach was given by ringing
bell in accordance with the requirements
of the city ordinance.
In regard 10 the law to compel the ring.
ing of bell, S. NJ. Shortridge offered in
evidence the city ordinance on that ques-
ton. Attorney Charles L. Ackerman OBJ
Iected on the ground that this matter had
not been specia lily pleaded. Argument on
this point was reserved until the testi-
monv is ali presented to the jury.
Eugene Brackett, teamster, testified
that he was on Mission street, going
toward Erie. when he saw Mr.. Levey's
team approach the track. 1t that mo-
ment the car was from $50 to 800 feet from
the wagon, going at a terrific speed. He
thought it was equal 10 fifteen miles an
hour. The bell was not rung and no
warning was given. The car crashed into
the wagon while he was looking. There
seemed to be no attempt to stop the car.
He thought the gripman was confused.
A. Gunnison, driver of dreyage team,
testified that when the accident occurred
he was on Mission street, near Erie. He
saw the horses on the track when the car
was sixty feet away. 1t was plunging
along at the rate of something more than
twelve miles an hour He heard no bell,
and could not perceive that any effort
was put forth by the gripman to slow
down. The speed was not noticeably
diminished until after the collision.
After it struck the wagon the car went
fifty feet before it was stopped The man
In the wagon, Mr.. Levey, was thrown
headlong 10 the grouud.
Joseph h. Nichols, a milk-dealer, was
sworn as witness on behalf of the de-
fendant. He was not asked in regard to
the excessive speed of the car. In fact 1t
was noted that none OF the witnesses for
the railroad com pany were called on to
give opinions on that point. Mr.. Mich
oils said that he was standing on the front
dummy of the car when the catastrophe
occurred. He saw Mr.. Levey on the
ground and agreed with rem ark by Mr..
Shortridge that it was miracle the man
was not killed. The witness said he re-
me m bered hearing the bells of the car
ringing for the purpose of warning the
occupant OF the wagon. He also heard
several men shout for the driver TO look
out, but couldn't say whether he shouted
or not. he thought that the car went
not more than six feet after striking the
wagon.
John Bunker, paver, testified that he
was repairing the track on Mission street.
tween Fourteenth and Erie, and that he
was not injured by the car as he thought
he would have been if the car had gone
anY great distance after striking the
wagon.
1t is expected that the argument of
counsel will be heard to-day and that the
case will go to the jury this evening.

]. F. TURNER'S TRIAL.

Nearly a Month Occupied Hearing the
Charge of Grand Larceny.
The case of ]. F. Turner, charged with
grand larceny, was argued before a jury
in Judge Wallace's court yesterday. At
torney Henry Dibbie appeared as special
council for the prosecution. while Attor-
ney Collins spoke on behalf of the de-
fendant. The trial of this case occupied
nearly month. involving the taking OF a
vast amount of testimony. Judge Wal
lace concluded his charge at 8 o'clock,
and at 8 O'Clock, as no asreement had
been reached, he ordered the jurors locked
up for the night. Owing to the extensive
record in the case it was not expected
that an early verdict would be secured
