Z A FLOATING HE'LL.
That is Probably What the Swanhil-
da, With Butler on Board, Has
Become.

San Francisco Jan. 3O.-The British
ship Burmah, one of the fleet of coal
laden vessels due at this port from
Newcastle, N S. W.. entered the har-
Dor last night She sailed four days
before the Swanhilda, the ship that
is bearing murderer Butler to this
port, and her crew reported that dur
ing the whole of the voyage they did
not see a sail.
The Burmah and Swanhilda lay side
by side in the harbor at Newcastle.
The crew of the vessel that came into
the port yesterday says that the Swan
hilda had hard set of men for her
crew Several of them were in the
prison at the coal port, and they were
liberated only to be placed on board
the ship when she had received her
cargo and was ready for sea. One of
the men was in Jail for striking Cap
tain Fraser ON the streets of New
castle while the ship was waiting in
the port for her load. Most of the
crew were in mutiny nearly all the
time the ship was in Newcastle har-
Dor, and the harbor police were re-
quired to quell numerous disturbances
between the officers and the men on
the Swanhilda's decks. The men of
the Burmah knew nothing of Butler
and his crimes. but they say the crew
of the Swanhilda needed only leader
in their devilment to make the ship a
floating hell.

ROOSEVELT MAKES A REMARK
ABLE IMPRESSION.
Workingmen of New York Who
Would Like to See Him Made the
Next Mayor of the Metropolis.

New York. Jan. 9O.-Police Commits
sioner Roosevelt has won the hearts
of the laboringmen by recent visit to
their stamping ground at Clarendon
hall, and when he stood up at the bar
with the leaders ON Wednesday even
ing and Joined them in a social glass
of ale the conquest was completed.
After Mr.. Roosevelt went home the
meeting declared its Approval of him
as a man, and yesterday it was
learned that a number of the leaders
are now in favor of Mr.. Roosevelt for
mayor of Greater New York. John
O'Connell of the Cigar Makers Inter
national union said yesterday: Mr.
Roosevelt made fine impression on all
of us. He is too good for the place he
now holds. He ought to be the next
mayor of Greater New York. When he
was in the assembly in 1884 and 1885
he worked hard to abolish the tene-
ment house cigar factories. He did
not do this to get votes, for he was
from the Fifth avenue district and it
would not have helped him there"

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
INJECTED SOME HUMoR INTO
PROCEEDINGS YESTERDAY.
Country People Wanted Bounty
on Coyotes-Two Opinions by At
torney Van Colt.

The county commissioners injected
some humor into their session yester-
day afternoon, and when their success
ors take charge and peer over the
journal of the present board they will
smile at the reading of a resolution.
And this is how it came about:
When the board met yesterday af-
ternoon there was among the other
papers a petition signed by a large
number of people in the southern part
of the county asking that the board
place bounty of 81 on coyotes. The
petition did not state whether this
bounty was to be paid for breeding or
killing the coyote, but it was construed
to mean the latter, which was no
doubt the intention of the petitioners.
The reading of the document caused a
smile to fit over the faces of the
three members. Hall broke the silence
and spoke up:
Mr.. Chairman, inasmuch as a per-
son with gun was never known to
let a coyote escape, move you the
petition be denied
And so bounty on coyotes in this
county will not be paid.
County Attorney Van Colt submitted
two opinions, one of which was to the
effect that the county treasurer can
without action on the part of the
board pay out the interest on bonds
when il becomes due. The other de-
cided that only when sitting as board
of equalization can the commissioners
rebate taxes of insane, idiotic, infirm
or indigents, and then not to exceed
$40 in each case.
The resignation of Pauline Broman
who was recently appointed janitress
in the capitol building, was accepted
and Mary Brown appointed to fill the
vacancy.
A liquor license was granted to c. j..
Fairchild, at Twelfth South and State
streets.
The board will meet again Monday
afternoon at 2 o'clock.

A LUCKY DEFENDANT
A Juror Taken Ill, and Eusebio Pico
Pleads Guilty

While the jury were wrestling with
the difficulties involved in finding a
unanimous verdict in the case of Frank
Valdez, another Mexican defendant
named Eusebio Pico was placed on trial
assault with a deadly weapon.
Little time was occupied in obtaining
jury and by II o'clock testimony was
being taken. 1t was charged that on
the 10th of May last Pico had made an
assault with deadly weapon upon one
Jose Chavez. at Lemon. 1t developed
in the testimony that the deadly weapon
was Mexican "quirt," but the princi-
pal witness for the prosecution failed to
stand up to his original statement, and
it looked as if conviction on the charge
alleged would not be made.
The case was still further complicated
by w. p, Wright, one of the jurors. being
taken suddenly Ill. thus necessitating
an adjournment of the trial. Inasmuch
as the testimony had indicated that the
offence committed by the defendant
was simple assault, the court privately
suggested that the defendant plead
guilty" to the lesser offense. Upon the
reconvening of court in the afternoon
this was done and Pico was sentenced by
the court to pay fine of $50 or suffer
twenty-five days Imprisonment in the
county jail
Il am glad the case has reached such
happy termination remarked Judge
Smith. 'and so far as you are con-
cerned, gentlemen" addressing the jury,

SOME BOLD CHARGES
But the Fair Applicant Lacks the Cor
roborating Evidence

A few weeks ago very dashing little
blonde applied in department one for a
divorce. She gave her name as Mrs.
A. v. Bailey. and the story she told of
her marital troubles was peculiarly start
ling. Until comparatively recent date
she had resided in San Francisco, but
upon separating from her husband came
south to the city. To corroborate
the shameful statements she made re-
garding her husband a gentleman, who
for three years had been her music
teacher in San Francisco, came forward.
He explained his presence in Los An
eeles by saying that he was down for a
trip. At that time Judge Smith refused
10 grant the decree. Yesterday, however.
Mrs. Bailey again loomed up in the court
and made renewed application for the
coveted decree. She brought with her
TO corroborate her previous allegations
a letter written by woman physician
in San Francisco in which it was stated
that Mrs. Bailey's' continued indispos-
ton was owing in large measure to her
husbands treatment. That kind of tes-
timony, however. didn't suit Judge Smith
and he again denied the application.

GexnseI's Words Hung the
Jury
COUNTY OFFICIALS REPORTS
An ODD MISTAKE THAT BENE-
FITS ]. W. HEART
Iusebio Pico Pleads Guilty to the
Lesser offense-Clarence Gibbs
Gives Bail, but Hill Can't

The Valdez jury was hung UP by
cold-blooded bluff and was yesterday
discharged by Judge Smith.
Upon court convening the jury was
brought and the foreman stated that
they stood six to six and there was little
probability of agreement. There being,
apparently, some difference of opinion
as to the cause of this non-agreement,
one or two jurors saying it was on a
question of fact, while others inclined
to the idea that it was one of law, the
court thereupon ordered the jury again
into retirement in order to give them a
last chance. AT 80 they again re-
turned into court, and as they still stood
at six to six they were discharged.
1t then developed that some of the
jurors had been carried away by a
blufflng remark made by Deputy Dis
trict Attorney McConlas in his closing
argument, and for proper understand
ing of it one must revert to one of the
most important points brought out by
the prosecution.
Mr.. Ijams, one of the principal wit
nesses for the state, gave a very full and
his house after nightfall and after he
had been shot. Lorden' had at that
time quite long conversation with
Ijams, and upon starting to return to
his store was overtaken by Ijams on the
road and assisted by him to his home.
During that entire conversation what
more natural than that Lorden should
have said: Frank Valdez shot me for
the purpose of robbing me-" or words
to similar effect. AS a matter of fact
he never uttered word to Ijams regard
ing Valdez in that regard, and that was
such a striking omission that the de-
tense made the most of it.
Mr.. McComas evidently wished to
counteract the effect this omission on
the part of Lorden might have on the
minds Of the jury, and yet it was i'm
possible to contradict the fact, SO he
adopted another plan. II know what he
said to Mr.. Ijams," exclaimed Mr.. Nc
Comas, knowingly, but can't tell you
what it was" In some such words the
idea was instilled into the minds of the
jury that some thing had been said by
Lorden to Ijams discriminating Valdez
but that counsel was hedged in by the
law in his argument and could not re-
peat it. OF course a moments refec-
ton might make a juror realize that
every scrap of evidence detrimental to
the defendant had been brought out
while the witnesses were upon the stand
and anything that they themselves did
not know the district attorney did not
know. but the jurors that could be
caught by such bluff do not belong to
the reflective kind.
Anyway, the county will have to stand
the expense of another trial unless it
should be determined to dismiss the
case.

and the complaint was knooded out in
the first round. The original complaint
upon which the defendant had been ar
rested and brought to trial had beer
made out on the wrong blank, and when
Justice Young signed his name-in the
