WAS IN CONTEMPT
The Supreme Court Ruling in the Liv-
ingston Case

The opinion of the supreme court in
the case of Mary A. Livingstone against
the superior court of Los Angeles coun-
ty came to hand yesterday.
Certain of the facts have already been
published, having been telegraphed from
San Francisco, but it is to be remem-
bered that this decision has not been
made on the appeal taken in the Living
stone case, but on a writ of certiorari
1t was sought to have reviewed and de-
clared void an order MADE by Judge
Allen adjudging that the petitioner was
guilty of contempt and ordering that
Mrs. Livingstone be punished therefor.
The contempt order was made in n
proceeding ir stituted by the husband to
compel his wife to support him out of her
separate property. He obtained an or
der requiring her to pay for his support
$24 per month. An injunction was is
sued enjoining her from conveying her
property so as to defeat any judgment
he might obtain against her. In viola :
ton of the injunction Mrs. Livingston
conveyed all her property to her daugh-
ter on the day the decree was made.
At the hearing before Judge Allen the
petitioner presented her affidavit, show.
ing that she had no means from which to
make the payment. Upon this question
the court found against her, but the su-
preme court does not deal with that
point in the present proceeding: "The
attack here" says the court, "is solely
upon the power of the superior court to
make such an order on any state Of
facts"
81 bar Of y ut+ IT,.
the court proceeds to say that if Mda-
pendantly of any statute courtsof equity
had jurisdiction to decree alimony to a
wife although no divorce was sought.
it would necessarily follow that it has
jurisdiction when the husband applies
for support from the wife. "In each
case" says the court, "the right comes
from the same source-the obligations
assumed by the marriage as expressed
in section 1855 Of the civil code. Husband

tamentary guardian had not been given,
and because she consented to the adop-
tion of her child she did not surrender
her right in that regard.
The guardianship matter was then
dropped without anything being done.
Inasmuch as the affairs of the Creede
estate are at standstill, Mr.. Gage moved
that a special administrator be ap
pointed, that the rents be collected, and
the business of the estate be attended to-.
He named Attorney John T. Jones for
the position. Mr.. Finlayson strenuously
objected to any such appointment. He
urged that until the validity of the will
had been established the special admins
traitor ought to be a person. having no in
terest whatever in the issues involved,
for the reason that such appointee will
have access to all the papers of de-
ceased, and have it within his power to
make away with evidence having direct
bearing upon the case.
The court wanted to know how coun-
|sel would evade the mandatory require
ments of Sections 1411-13 of the Code
providing for such matters.
Mr.. Finlayson urged that Judge Cof-
fee had held that the person entitled to
letters of administration was the proper
one to be appointed special aGministra-
tor. Mrs. Creede, he argued. was so en-
titled as the widow of deceased and had
therefore prima facie claim to be ap-
pointed special admin istrator.
That last assertion brought Mr.. Gage
to his feet. He denieo that Mrs. Creede
was the wife of the deceased, or that
she is a citizen of this state.
Judge Allen said that while the fact
was not in evidence, he knew that Mr..
Jones had been the friend and attorney
of Mr.. Creede during his lifetime. The
court was engaged in dealing with
Creede's property, and it appeared to
him that no more honest way of obeyins
his wish could be found than by appoint
ing Mr.. Jones as special administrator,
but he would fix his bond at 100000.
The estate in Los Angeles consists of
about $4S, GOO in deposit in two of the city
banks subject to check; the Taliyho sta
bles, yielding rental of 5000 per month,
and the home on Sixth street, which
originally cost about s50,0OO

THE FORGERY CASE
Compton, Ware and Davis Are Held
to Answer

The examination of the three defend
ants, charged with having defrauded
the Columbia Savings bank of $1,000 by
means of a forged deed to lot 1 of the
Daily tract, was continued in the town
ship court yesterday afternoon.
Mrs Ware and Melvin Howard were
put upon the witness stand just to an
swer one or two questions, and then the
prosecution rested its case. Testimony
was then offered for the defense-which
meant in reality Compton, for he is the
only defendant that is actually put on
the defensive, Ware having turned
states evidence, and Davis being merely
a tool of the others a guilty one, it is
true, but a tool for all that.
Mrs. Mamie L. Reinold. whose name
was mentioned very freely by Ware in
his confession, was the first witness.
She has been confined to a sick bed for
some days, and had to be assisted onto
the stand. All the allegations of an in
eliminating character made by Ware
she emphatically denied. She stated
that on May 10th she went out with
man named Elder for the purpose of
showing him some property, and so could
not absolutely have introduced Ware to
Compton in her office on that date. She
utterly repudiated having ever said that
Compton was las crooked as dogs hind
leg," and was surprised that that or sim
liar expressions could be imputed to
lady.
On cross examination Mrs. Reinold
failed to remember what she had done on
May 9th or May 11th; it was only the 10th
that she remembers distinctly about
She conceded that she knew Compton
slightly and had had some business
transactions with him. She lent him
$150 diamond ring, and he lost it. He
gave her his note for the value of the
ring, and on one or two occasions she
stated that she had gone to Ed McGuin-
ness saloon to see him about it.
Mrs. Reinold is quite an attractive
looking lady, and appeared dressed very
tastefully without being obtrusive. Her
business partner, Mr.. King, merely test-
fed that so far as he knew Compton had
never been in their office.
That closed the case. Attorney Mar
tin moved that the case be dismissed so
far as it concerned Davis, but Justice
Young held that there was evidence be-
fore the court tending to show the COM
plicity of all three defendants in one of
the dangerous forms of crime. 1t was
not only that money had been fraudu-
lently obtained, but that by crimes OF
this character the public confidence in
real estate dealings became shaken. Al,
three defendants were held to answer in
the superior court, with bail fixed al
S2500 in each case.

STRUCK BY A TRAIN
JOHN BERRY BADLY INJURED
AND MAY DIE
A Terminal Engine Crashes Into a
Wagon at the Pasadena Avenue
~ Crossing, Causing Wreck

A Terminal train crashed into two
in Pasadena avenue at 10 o'clock yester-
day morning, throwing out the driver,
John Berry, who received injuries which
may prove fatal. The vehicle was de-
gine.
AS the train approached the crossing
the whistle was sounded and the bell
rung, but the driver did not appear to no
when the engineer saw that no effort
was being made to stop the team he
threw on the air brakes and tried to
bring the engine and heavy cars to a
sharp stop. 1t was too late and the loco
motive crashed into the wagon, tear
ing it loose from the horses which had
sunceeded in crossing the track and
scattering the pieces along by the side
of the roadbed.
Berry was thrown out and hurled to
one side, striking upon his forehead.
When the train came to standstill the
crew hurried out and picked UP the in
jured man, who was at first thought
to have been killed. Drs. Hughes and
Cross were summoned by telephone and
the sufferer removed as quickly as pos
sible to the Los Angeles Sanitarium on
Pico and Olive streets. An examination
of Berrys injuries was made but it was
impossible to state whether his skull
was fractured or not. He lay all day in
an unconscious condition.
The victim of the accident is in the
employ of Bangham Bros, fuel dealers
at Pasadena. He was driving to the
city in one of the companys wagons
when the accident occurred. The place
where the collision took place is a very
dangerous one, as the Santa Fe and
Terminal tracks are close together and
finally cross at this point. 1t is sup
posed that the driver of the wagon
thought that it was Santa Fe train ap-
preaching and paid no attention to the
Terminal crossing as he did not look for
danger from that quarter. Those who
witnessed the accident agree that the
engineer gave the necessary signals and
did everything in his power to avert the
trouble.
