JBN N[NGS IS DISBARRED
For Six Months He May Nc
Practice as an Attor-
ney.
Judges Seawell, Hunt and Danger
field Snstain Byron Waters
Accusations.

Attorney Cassius. M. Jennings has been
disbarred and deprived of his right to
practice his profession for the period of six
months. The decision to this effect vas
made by Judges Seawell, Hunt and Dain-
gerfeld of the Superior Court sitting in
bank yesterday.
Some time ago Mr.. Jennings was ac-
cused of bribing James Ii. Allison, the
confidential clerk of Attorney Byron
Waters, to divulge the secrets of Mr..
Waters. Mr.. Waters was then the attorney
ior the Southern Pacific Company, hav-
ing charge OF the litigation growing out
of suits for damages for personal injuries
1t was asserted by Mr.. Waters that Mr..
Jennings agreed to share with young Alli-
son any fees that he might secure by the
use of such inform alton that was obtained
from the secret files and memoranda IN
M. Waters Office.
Mr.. Jennings defense was that he
thought Allison was no longer connected
with Mr.. Waters office, and he did not
consider that he had received any infor-
nation which he mig not properly ac-
cept from such a source; that Allison
sought position in his (Jennings0 office,
saying that be was acquainted about town
and could bring many clients to any office
with which he was connected. Mr.. Jen-
MR. gs declared that he would have had
nothing to do with Allison if he had not
thought the young man had left Mr..
Waters office.
In summing up the case, the decision OF
| the court declares that it is found that Mr..
| jennings knew that Allison was employed
| by Mr.. Waters, and that he accepted the
| proposition to receive information thai
| was given to Allison in confidence by hi:
employer; that in so doing, Mr.. Jenning:
was guilty OF violating his oath OF office
as an attorney at law, and that he dis.
| regarded his duty as member of the lega
| profession. In view OF these facts and the
law, 1t was decreed that Mr.. Jennings be
deprived of the right to act as an attorney
| and counselor at law for six months.

This is the first move the Seventh has
made altogether since the war, and as .hls
move may mean division, it IS causing
no little sorrow among the officers and
their wives. The moving is like the part
ing OF family ties with many. Every
where at Fort Logan to-day there was
signs OF activity. From Lieutenant Car
penter's residence 10 the barracks every
thing Is In turmoil. The porches are
strewn with boxes os ali kinds preparatory
to packing household goods. Orders to
move Lave long been expected, but that
they were to go to the coast was surprise,
and every Que thinks they are particularly
fortunate In being assigned near San
francisco. Among those whom kind for
lune favored with the move, are Mrs.
Wallace, Mrs. Pearce. Mrs. Nichols and
Mrs. Mckeiver. Their parents live in San
Francisco, and they are glad of the
change. Colonel Benham, who is now on

| dett and his dogs and pigeons from the
premises which he has occupied for the
last twenty-four years.
Gallandett, who is a veteran of the Mex.
lean war, is a little wiry man, with a griz.
Fly beard and is about IS years of age.
In 1872 he took possession of the little
shanty at 62 Kentucky street and for q
mum Der of years ran bar in the front
room. He also owned mum Der of fish
ingb boats and between these nd the occu-
patton of raising pigeons and dogs man
aged to exc out a living.
When he first moved on the premises he
paid small rental, but later considered
this unnecessary, and as no one appeared
to contest his rights went on in undis-
turbed possession, and as the years rolled
by accumulat ted pile of useless odds and
ends. the like OF which has seldom been
seen.
The yards soon became filled with
'truck" and it overfowed into the house
A shed in one corner of the yard was con-
verted into a pigeon-loft as was also the
upper story of the house, and amid his
dogs, pigeons and rubbish the old man
was happy.
Recently, however, the Southern Pacific
Railroad Company became aware OF the
fact that 1t was the real owner of the
property and the old man was ordered
out. He refused to go and the matter was
taken into the courts, where the company
came out victorious.
A little thing like legal decision, how
ever, did not trouble Gallandett, who
claimed that he had a soldiers right to
the property and intended remaining
Yesterday the Sheriff came with writ of
ejectment and found the house locked up
with the old man snugly ensconced side
end it was found necessary to force an en-
trance.
Then the work of removal began. Piles
of rubbish, worthless to all save Gallan-
dett, who seemed to look on then as Of
priceless value, were unceremoniously
thrown into the street along with the few
BILE articles of furniture, while their
unfortunate owner wandered aimlessly
around bemoaning his fate and curslng
the corporations.
The only interruption to the procedure
was when one of the deputies opened the
door of an clubhouse and found dog half
as big as himself inside. That was a ten
ant which no one cared to evict.
However, the work proceeded rapidly,
no efforts being made to remove the furni-
ture, and when the sun went down it left
the old man sitting homeless in the gut
ter the sole guardian of pile of posses
sions which the meanest thief would scorn
to touch, while the flock Of 200 pigeons
whose resting-place5 had been destroyed
lowered around the house or percned
themse here and there on the miser-
able furniture.

CHIN ESE PRINCE
OF BREAKERS
Ma Gee, the Fowler AbduCtor.
and the Tools of His
Profession.
His Pockets Laden With Detectives
Badges, Federal Subpenas
and Keys.
Special Dispatch to HE CALL.

/ 6peciaI Dlspatch TO The CALL
FRESNO. Oct. 5.-Constable A. E.
Mason OF Fowler arrived this morning at
| the County all with Ma Gee, the high
| binder who so boldly kidnapped a
Chinese girl II years of age in that town
| Wednesday night and whom the officer
apprehended at Tulare yesterday. The
abduction case is attracting wide at
tention and it is likely that the high
binder will be severely punished. The
prisoner refused to talk. He Will be ar
raigned before Justice Galloway at Ole
| ander next Monday.
When Ma Gee was arrested in Tulare he
had driven up to a watering-trough with
his team and had alignted to enter the
store to buy some cakes which he said he
ould give to the girl if she would stop
| crying. Emma Allen, the victim of the
kidnapping, would not be consoled.
The officers made a remarkable discov-
cry when they searched Ma Gee at the Jail
and they are conducting an investigation
which may probably lead to very i'm
portant results. That the prisoner is a
crook of the worst type is established. On
his person was found a com plete burglars
outfit OF keys. In his pockets were foun d
q pair u plSlOI anu VI ali b
subpoena s, W hich had been procured from
the United States Mars halls office at Los
Angeles while Marshal G ard held that po-
sition. There were also in the Chinaman s
pockets badges of detective agencies, as
we'll as one of a Deputy United States
Marshal.
The authorities here believe that Ma
| Gee has used these subpenas, his hand
cuffs and badges to carly on blackmailing 2
schemes among the Chinese merchants.
| Further investigation into his career will
| undo ubteily establish this fact.
Constable Mason was careful not to
| take his prisoner to Fowler. He con-
| tinued on the train with the Gilman an 10
this citv, and took him to the County Jail.
The officer was afraid that the Fowler
people might do violence to the high
binder. for there was strong talk OF organ
izing lynching party.
When Mason arrived at the depot with
Ma Gee this morning a large number of
highbinderS from Chinatown were hang
ing around. II was feared that the
Chinese ght make an attempt to rescue
the prisoner and spirit him away to China
town, where his recapture would be a
matter of impossibility. Mason hustled
his prisoner off to jail as quickly as posi-
bic, and Ma Gees friends had no oppor-
tunity to free him, had that been their
purpose.

INDIAN SUES FOR DIVORCE.
appeals to the Courts to Be Sepa rated
From a Squaw alleged to Be
FaHhIeSs.

ALBUQUERQUE, Nov. 5-A very Pc
culiar case, and one of much more than
ordinary interest, Is now before the Dis
trict Court of this county, being divorce
proceedings instituted by full-blooded
Indian against his squaw. The man ap-
pears In court in the usual Indian cos
tune, and answers to the name Of Nicol as
Lucero. while his wife name is said to be
Felicita.
The complaint charges the infelicitous
Feliclta with divers and sundry extras,
not provided for in the plans and speciti-
cations, and Nicolas, instead of organic
ing him self into court and trying the
case in the usual summary manner, ac-
cording to the laws and practices of the
tribe, comes into court all the same like
white man, and asks to have his marital
letters unrivetted in the most approved
modern style.
This is the first case of the kind that ever
was tried in the courts of this Territory.
Nicolas will get his divorce without any
trouble, becaase Fclicita refuses to de-
fend. She says hes no good" and not
worth bothering about.

characters in Sausalito died early this
morning. He was William Crosby. but
few knew him by that name, rs he was

prominence that 1t now occupies. Crosby

Bend, on the Governments reservation
near Saushlito. Crosby worked up to q
o'clock yesterday, but died during the
