The Loss Of Their Late Associate,
Kirkland II. Wade
A Life Career Of Progress and Memory That
VIII Live-W. q. Nevin Formally
Elected General 7anaRer

A special meeting of the directors of
the Southern California Railway COM
| pany was held yesterday at which w.
G. Nevin was formally elected general
manager.
The appointment of Mr.. Nevin was
made several days ago by President
Ripley, and the Southern California
Railway company, being an incorpora-
ton, the action yesterday was simply
/ to legalize the appointment.
Considerable routine business was
transacted besides passing the follow
ing memorial resolutions regarding the
death of the late general manager, K. H.
Wade:
MEMORIAL RESOLUTIONS.
Whereas. On Friday, the 18th day of
March, 1897, Kirkland H. Wade, gen.
erat manager of this company, and
member of its board of directors, was
called from his post of duty to his final
home and rest; and
Whereas, We desire to preserve for
all time to come upon the records of the
Southern California Railway company

of our late associate and our sympathy
for the wife and daughter who are left

that of all others;
Nov, therefore, be 1t Resolved. BY
the board of directors of the Southern
California Railway company, at its spe-
cial session of March Is, 1897:
THAT we hereby testify to our belief
that a noble soul has responded to the
last call with the loyal and ready willing
ness with which he has met and antici-
pated the daily calls of duty and friend
ship.
with a broad and comprehensive
grasp of situations and an unswerving
devotion to the large interests entrusted
to his care, he has made the prosperity
Of this railway reflected in the pros
perity of all Southern California and
his is a loss the entire community
mourns. A master of all the varied and
intricate details of railway service, he
brought the highest efficiency and
economy into the operations of the roads
of which he had charge, while ever
watchfur to develop and expand the re-
sources of the communities they served.
"A life career of progress in his chosen
field. from boyhood enlistment as an
operator step by step to the manage
ment, had brought him into close touch
with the army of workers in the railway
world, generating an ever-present SYM
pathy with the humblest and establish
ing a commanding position In the ranks
of the brightest railway men in the
country.
His life of usefulness is over, but its
lessons of self-denial, rigid devotion to
duty and broad encouragement of all
that is best in life are writ indelibly in
our memories.
His seat in our board Is vacant, but
in our hearts will live the memory of
this noble, kindly man, of whom it can
be truly said, as Of but few, none knew
him but to love him.
1--WE extend the sympathies of this
board and Of the company it represents
to the bereaved wife and daughter,
whom he awaits on those brighter shores
where dwells eternal day"
The assistant secretary was directed
to send copy of this memorial to Mrs.

THH SMITH DIVORCE
On the Fourth Attempt the Dscree Is
Granted

Granted
At last, and after many vicissitudes,
Mrs. Mary S. Smith and A. F. Smith are
gain made two. The marital bonds
that bore so heavily upon both husband
and wife have been lifted by Judge AL
len. and presumably the couple are
| happy.
The full particulars of this most sem
sationaI case have already been publish
ed in full in The Herald. The fourth at
tempt made at obtaining divorce came
very near being failure. and but for the
ready wit of Attorney Moss 1t certainly
would have been.
This time Smith made no unpleasant
charges against his wife, merely alleg-
ing desertion, and on this ground the de-
cree was granted by default of the wife.
Judge Allen, however, stated that the
confederation of the cause OF desertion
was not sufficient, and that in these di-
vorce cases upon the ground of deser-
tion 1t too frequently happened that
there was an agreement between the
parties and that it was not what the law
contemplated.
Mr.. Moss then said that he hated to do
it, but he was the only ons~who could
give the desired corroboration, and in
such case would testify himself. He
related a conversation he had with Mrs.
Smith before the first divorce proceed
ings. in which she told him that she
would never live with her husband
again, and that she left him because she
did not love him any more,
This settled the point of difficulty be-
tween the court and the attorney, and
Judge Allen granted the decree.

THE HIGUERA TRIAL
4 Bold Assertion Made by the Brother oi
Defendant

Quite large array of witnesses were
put forward yesterday by the defense
in the Higuera case to impugn the repu-
triton of Josefa Valenzuela. The most
notable was the brother of the defend
ant, who swore that previous to the time
when Secundino was on friendly terms
with the woman he had himself been un-
that FREDERICK Samuels, a former lover
Of the woman had told him that he
also had been intimate with her. In
terest is attached to this latter state
ment for the reason that at the prelim-
mary examination Samuels, in telling of
his courtship, stoutly maintained that
she was chaste so far as he was concern
ed
The testimony of this witness aroused
the ire of Assistant District Attorney
Williams, who in cross examination,
tried to discredit his assertions. He at
tempted to rake up an old scandal by
asking the witness If he had not himself
been involved in a case similar to tha.
In which his brother is now concerned.
but Judge Smith barred that line of in
vestiga ton
At the same time the question put by
Mr. Williams, If allowed might prob
ably have led to more light being thrown
upon the case than has been so far 1t
Is claimed that the elder Higuera paid a
large sum of money to settle a case, in
some respects similar to the one at bar,

that reason, are said TO have borne the

than hight. On the other hand. the two

TO PERPETU4TH TESTIMONY
The Terminal Land Company Desires to Es-

superior court to perpetuate the testi-
mony of R. D. Sepulveda. J. H. Dodson,
G. H. Peck. jr. Mary E. Lindskow, f.
Burke, II. Baly and E. T. Wright.
The petitioner is owner of and in pos

originally conveyed by the United States
government to Manuel Dominguez ct
al. by patent dated December IS. 1858.
and the Terminal company has derived
title by means of conveyances from the
SUCCESSORS in interest.
Since the date of the original survey
the winds or waves of the ocean have
taken out the land at certain points and
caused accretions at other points, ard
petitioner claims these new lands
formed by depost. In order however.
that in the future, not to mention the
present, the title to these lands may
not be attacked, it is desired to have
the testimony Of the persons named ta-
ken with regard to these accretions of
land, and perpetuated for any possible
contingency that may arise in the fu-
ture.

MAXEY LIGHTLY FINED
Too Much Liquor Caused q 7isapprehension
on His Part


In view of the circumstances sur
rounding the arrest of Wallace Maxey,
the young man convicted of battery
upon a 16-year-old girl named Lena
Miller several weeks ago, Justice Nor
rlson in sentencing him yesterday morn
ing imposed a fine of but So, which was
paid and the case was ended. While
Maxey himself admitted that he was
under the influence of liquor at the time
and has no remembrance of what he
was doing, Miss Miller was of the opin-
ion that he had acted as he did under
the impression that he was protecting
her
When she and her little brother were
walking down Seventh street, on the
night of the assault. they were accosted
b. one of three men, Maxey being among
them. A party who, from his appear
ance, was of Jewish extraction, ad-
dressed an insulting remark to her
Whereat Maxey took her part and struck
the other man. knocking him from the
sidewalk. She fed from the scene and
Maxey followed, OBTAINING her and in
an incoherent manner asking whether
ne had punished her insulter enough.
Being greatly frightened she screamed
and tried to break away from his grasp
nut he held her, and she was struggling
with him when the officer arrived and
put him under arrest.
OF the scene which followed, the fight
between the officer and himself, and his
attempted escape, Maxey did not remem-
her. He is not in the habit of drinking
and the liquor ne had taken undoubtedly
made him lose his senses. In consid-
GRAFTON of the fact that Maxey had COM
mitted his offense under the impression
that he was helping the sirl, the Justice
imposed tie nominal fine for his over
indulgence in LIQUOR

ON ITS MERITS
A Stock Transaction That Became Very nuch
Mixed

In an opinion handed down yesterday
Judge Van Dyke sustained the demur-
rer to the complaint in the case of Jud
Saeger, as assignee of the copartnership
of J. B. Meyer & Co., insolvent debtors,
against Thomas C. Ryan and Los Ange-
les Gas Saving association.
The action was brought to have it de-
creed that 100 shares of the capital stock
of the Gas association, was the property
of the copartnership and belong to the
plaintiff as assignee of the firm, and
that the defendants be enjoined from
selling or transferring this stock. The
defendant, Ryan, testified that he held
the stock, and that it had been trans
ferred to him by Myers G. Merrill sew
orally, fifty shares belonging to each,
and that Merrill's fifty shares had been
garnisheed at the instance of the In
tervenor, o. p. Taylor. On Jan. 23 a

Bat.erlno


The troubles which at periodical In
tervals appear to afflict the Ballerino
family have been frequently ventilated
in the courts. Not long ago Horace
Bell, Esq, sued the head of the Ballerino
clam for attorneys fees, and finally the
matter was stipulated out of court.
1t now appears as If Mrs. Ballerino,
who, like her spouse, Is not averse to
legal contest, like him also objects to
pay for the fighting done on her be-
half. At least a suit was filed yester-
day by Hugh J. Smith against Maria
Amparo Ballerino that would seem to
justify such inference.
On March 4th of last year the sonora
was, SO 1t it alleged, indebted to ].
Marion Brooks, Esq. to the extent of
$1,000, on a contract made with him
for legal services. She made her prom
issory note for s6500, and to secure pay
ment gave a mortgage on certain prop
erty. The balance of $500 she agreed to
pay later, and until that time 1t was to
bear 10 per cent interest. On February
26th this latter claim was assigned by
Attorney Brooks to the plaintiff, who
has brought suit to recover.

THE "c0UNT'S" TROUBLE
A Curious TangIe of Attorneys in the


Case
Yesterday morning was the time set
for the examination of the Count Otto
Won Martinez on the charge of forgery,
in the township court, but when Attor-
ney Copeland. representing the defend
ant, appeared, it developed that the case
had been continued for ten days at the
solicitation of Attorney Gates The de-
fendant protested that he had not re-
tanned Mr.. Gates as his counsel and did
not intend to, and demanded that the
examination proceed.
Through some misapprehension of the
state Of affairs, Mr.. Gates evidently did
understand he had been retained to de-
fend Martinez, for he wrote to the Rev.
w. w. Woodward at Hollister, a friend
of the defendant asking him to forward
to him S100 for expenses. The reverend
gentleman did not send the money but
came to Los Angeles himself and still
has a grip on the 500.
The case was adjourned by Justice
Young until o'clock and at that hour
was taken up. Martinez is charged
with having on the 26th Of March of last
year given to Marcher, the jeweler, 4
check for s35 purporting to have been
signed by one Schoenwald, and which
was a forgery. The defendant had been
