 The grand jury submitted another report yesterday containing indict- ments against Jesus Fernandez, att tempt to commit rape; Rafael Valenr zuela, burglary, and Juan Lopez, as sault with intent to murder. Charges of aggravated assault against I. Masui and robbery against Valentine Lopez an Angel Palemino were ignored Three hidden indictments were in- cluded in the report. There yet re- mains considerable work, a part of it said to be important, so that the final report will not likely be submitted be- fore next Tuesday night.
 When the persons previously ar raigned were called in to plead, J. A. Phillips, indicted for arson, pleaded not guilty and his trial was set for to- morrow
 Linen and Mendoza, indicted for forgery, Milligan for burglary, and Al Kai for grand larceny, also pleaded not guilty. Their trials were set for next "Wednesday. In the cases of Riggs, Steele and Daily, indicted fer murder, a demurrer to the indictment was sustained and the matter was re- ferred back to the grand jury. It transpired that a second indictment for an attempt at arson had been found against J. A. Phillips. AS he had not been held on this charge he had not made arrangements for a bond Con- sequently bench warrant was issued for him and he was taken to jail last night.
 On the civil side of the court. di- vorces were granted Ruby Amirault from L. A. Amirault, and Ursula Long from John H. Long
 In the case of J. c. Cole vs. Sheriff Orme a demurrer and a motion to set aside injunction was denied. This was in favor of the plaintiff, whose school warrant had been attached in the course of a kaleidoscopic contro- versy begun about three years ago, in which the plaintiff in the present ac- tion was plaintiff against George Kirk land, whose bicycle he caused to be attached for debt. A damage suit was begun by Kirkland and after having been carried through two courts he obtained judgment, in satisfaction of which the school warrant was ait tached. It was held up in the hands of the sheriff by an injunction issued by Judge Baker, the attempt to set which aside has been made in vain.

 The Vorwarts says: "A tariff war begun by the United States or Europe would be answered by the closing of the markets of the United States of America. The first measure of the powerful big republic across the ocean would be the embracing of aH the American countries, including, per haps, the English colonies, there into a American tariff union by which the United States would have a large and assured field for supply and would narrow the exports of their adyer- saries still further.'
 The Cologne Gazette, discussing the continuance of the deficits in the re- ceipts of the United States, says: .'The new office of Commissioner Kas- son (the United States reciprocity commissioner under these circum- stances appears to be nothing more than a regular recruiting office to in- duce the nations to come there f1T commercial treaties and would ct course stimulate the imports Of the United States and consequently its tariff receipts"
