HONEYMOON INTERRUPTED.
Charles Atkinson and His Wife Spend Some Hours in the
 City Prison.

The honeymoon of Charles Atkinson, a dairyman on a ranch at Clayton, Contra Costa County, and his wife, Hilda, was rudely interrupted yesterday morning by a policeman, who called at the Yosemite House, where they were stopping, and took them to the City Prison. After re- maining there for several hours they were released.
 Mrs Atkinson's maiden name was Hilda Rhine, and her father owns ranch in Clayton. She and Atkinson had been keeping company for about year, but her father strongly opposed their mar riage, on the ground of religious differ ences, so they determined to get married without his consent. She came to the city about six weeks ago and got employ nent in a store. Atkinson's remunera- tion is very small and last week she sent him money to enable him to come to the city. He arrived last Friday, and ob- tained a marriage license in Oakland. They were married by Justice of the Peace Gift on Sunday. A cousin of Hilda, named Abe Rhine, came to the city, and from a feeling of jealousy, she says, he reported to the police yesterday morn ing that she was under age. This led to the young couple being taken to the City Prison. She declared she would be 19 in June, which was later confirmed by a dispatch from her father, and they were released.

General Barnes on the ground that How ard Vernon, the Police Court stenogra- pher, who took the testimony, had not been sworn in the case Judge Camp Judge Campbell stated that while How ard Vernon was the official stenographeI of his department, and had been sworn in such. he was not specially sworn in to take the testimony given Tn the Figel case at the preliminary examina- tion. Howard Vernon substantiated the moved to have the testimony of MT. Hale read, but @an objection by the defense was sustained by Judge Cook, after he had listened to an argument.
 During the afternoon session Dr. Hrschfelder was called and testified that he was professionally treating H. Basch for an illness which prevented his at tendance in court. The testimony given P. c. Hale testified thE his brother Mar shall Hale, was in New York City, and Henry L. Smith, secretary for the Board of Trade, identified the handwriting of the body of a check. His testimony was corroborated by Emmit R.. Hewston, sec ond assistant secretary of the Board of Trade.
 Then Edward S. Rothchfld was called to the stand. He testified as to his business relations with Isaac Hoffman prior to his death. and stated that Theo- dore d A. Figel had been the bookkeeper
 
 Co: He said that he had issued positive orders that no checks should be signed by the bookkeeper, and that no letters should be opened by him. Considerable time was taken up examining the wit ness as to the check held by the Board of Trade for $436 36, but no points of more importance than those elicited at the ex- animation in the lower court were brought out. The witness stated that he had no account with the First Ma tional Bank of this city, but the Paris. London and American banking firm car ried on their money transactions and that Theodore Figel had been given no authority to do business for the firm with the National Bank.
 Chief of Police Lees was the next wit ness. He stated that he had received tags and checks from the First National Bank on an order given him by the de- fendant. In the cross-examination Chief Lees said that the defendant had told him of the accounts in the bank, and had willingly given him the order for the tags.

OPPOSED TO THE POUND. Potrero Nuevo Residents do Not Want It in Their District.

Property owners and residents gen. orally in the vicinity of San Bruno ave- nue are opposed to the erection of the public pound on that thoroughfare, be- tween Twenty sixth and Army streets, and the opposition has assumed definite shape.
 That the opposition is determined one Is evinced by the fact that two petitions against the scheme have been signed by every resident and property owner on the block and in the vicinity, and be- sides, they have agreed to contribute a sufficient fund to retain an attorney who will take legal action in the matter. Gen. eral John H. Dickinson will advocate their protest and he will proceed to have an injunction served to stop the work on the building, and falling in that he will endeavor to have the pound, as soon as it is established, condemned as pub lie nuisance.
