Witnesses in the Haynes Ex. animation Have Faulty
 Memories.
Cannot Tell How the Policemen Acted When Lieutenant Burke Met
 His Death.

Judge Conlan's courtroom was again crowded yesterday afternoon with curious spectators, who stretched their necks to get a view of the eccentric murderer of Lieutenant burke. The testimony elicited during the hearing was similar to that already published and the constant ques- tioning of ,Ae attorneys for the defense and prosecution over beaten paths became wearying to the court and listeners. At one stage Judge Conlan's feelings could not be restrained, an. he pettishy said: Let this witness go, for Gods sake; he has answered that time and again."
 Chief Lees was an interested listener to the proceedings, and would often prompt Prosecuting Attorney Mogan for the 0ur- pose of en4ightening himself on the con- duct of his officers during the exciting scenes surrounding the brave lieutenant s death.
 Witnesses examined were averse to tell ing what the arresting officers did by evasively answering that they did not see them, their attention being centered on Burke and Haynes.
 Attorneys Wilson and Sweeney's efforts were mainly directed toward getting an admission from the witnesses at Burke's menacing front was the reason why Haynes shot, but without success.

ATTORNEYS ONLY CAN ACT.
Clients Cannot Settle Their Gases
 Without Their Representatives

The Supreme Court has handed down a decision which will cause some rejoicing among the attorneys of the State. for It establishes as law that when a man places his case in the hands of a law yer he has no right to settle the difficulty out or court without the knowledge and consent of his attorney. M. G. Willie brought an action against the Sierra Gold company to recover money. An amended complaint was filed on November A. 1886. To this a general demurrer was filed by the defendant, which was overruied and ten days allowed to answer. No answer having been nled on December 1, the clerk of the ffouli, fo,. 1I upon % application of the attorney TOT the plaintiff, was directed to enter a Judgment in default for the amount On the same day, but a little later, the de- fendant filed a notice of a motion to set aslde the Judgment and permit the de- fendant to answer
 He gave as his reason that he had been taken by surprise, in this, that the
 plalntlH had extended the time to an- sWer to December s, and he produced af1idavits to show that in the interim the two parties to the action had been con- slderlng a compromise by means of let ters and conversations. On hearing, his petition was denied by the lower court, from which ruling he appealed. The Su- preme Court holds that the party losing by this failure to answer has no redress. Tor his attorney should have known bet ter than to allow the matter to go by the. board in such way, and says: w hen party appears and is represent ed by an attorney of record he cannot himself assume control of the case. and if he signs stipulation dismiSsing the action or extending the time for any pur- pose, the stipulation will have no ef- feet and will be disregarded by the cOnrt "
