spANIARDs MADE TO LEAVE CANADA
Government Informs Two Spaniards That
They Must Leave Canadian Soil
at Once.

Montreal, July 11.-Senar Dubosc,
late secretary Of the Spanish legation
at Washington, and Lieutenant Car
rama, military attachc, Will leave
Montreal tomorrow night by tho
Dominion steamer Ottoman at the
urgent and repeated request of the
Dominion government. The request
was conveyed through Mr.. N. G. St.
Pierre, q. c., who was counsel for
Messrs. Dubosc and Curranza in the
litigation following upon tho arrest
Of Detective Kellort on tho charge Of
stealing letter from Lieutenant
Carranza's rooms.
The government wished the Span
iards to leave at once, but tho capias
secured by Detective Kellert was not
quashed until juno 3Oth, and on that
day Sir Wilirid Laurier telegraphed
urging that the departure should take
place on Saturday, July I'd. The
same day he wrote Mr.. st. Pierre to
the same effect, officially insisting
upon the departure of his clients.
After stating that he had been furn-
i he'd by Sir Julian Pauncofoto with
a Photographic copy of tho stolen
letter he continued:
"The letter of Senior Carranza un-
equivocally states that ho has been
left in Canada to receive and send
kilograms and to look after the spy
system he was then establishing.
"Tho action OF Senior Carranza is
violation of tho laws of tho land,
and I have therefore to request Sonor
Carranza to leave this country. 7
have to make the same request of
SeAor Dubosc, who, from evidence
in our lands, is an accomplice in the
establishment Of the spy system
which was organized by Senior Car
ranZa."

HER SIGNATURE FORGED
Mrs. Julia F. Roth Receivers Costs in a
Suit Against Her and Husband

w. c. F. Borsum some time ago sued Ed
Roth, a solicitor for wholesale liquor
houses, and Mrs. Julia f. Roth, his wife,
TO obtain payment for $430.36 due on four
notes purporting to have been Jointly
signed by the defendants. These notes had
all been drawn on July 16, 1896, and were
made payable to Phil Ifollenbach & Co.,
who assigned them TO the plaintiff. The
case came up for trial yesterday before
Judge Shaw. Ed Roth was neither pres
ent in person nor represented by counsel,
he having left for Mexico several months
ago. Mrs. Roths answer was that she at
no time had subscribed any of the promis-
sorry notes sued upon. and that the sigma
ture, Julia F. Roth" appended to the four
notes was not in her handwriting nor
placed there by her authority. AS mat
ter Of fact, Mrs. Roth's writing is very
dissimilar to that upon the notes, which
seems to have a great many traits of re-
6emblance with that of Mr.. Roth himself
with the exception that the letters are
smaller.

MAY USE THE TRACK
Traction Company to Enjoy Part Of
Central Avenue Upon Payment

In the action of the Los Angeles Traction
company against the Los Angeles Railway
company. tried a short time ago, Judge
Allen yesterday decided that the plaintiff
is 10 pay the defendant $799S69 for the in
tc.section connections and the right to
make joint use Of the tracks on Central
avenue within the points designated in the
complaint, together with poles, wires and
overhead work, excepting trolleys and the
expenses incurred by the Los Angeles Rail-
way company for grading and macadamiz-
Mg the street Upon such payment the
Los Angeles Traction is authorized to
make joint use Of the tracks of the other
company on Central avenue between Third
street and Ceres avenue. Plaintiff was or
dered to pay defendant's costs.
Briefly recapitulated franchise was
granted to the Depot Railway company
prior to 1881 to operate line over the dis
puted portions of Central avenue. The Los
Angeles Railway company later acquired
these rights and replaced the rails, chang
ing the mode Of traction into an electric
one. Subsequent to this construction. in
the belief that 1t could prevent compet-
ing road from obtaining a right over this
street adjacent to the Arcade depot, the
Los Angeles Railway company got lease
from the Main Street and Agricultural
Park Railway company for the
property granted by the Depot Street
Railway company to the defendants
predecessors. Under this lease the Agri-
cultural park road kept a car drawn by
mules on the portion from Second street to
the Southern Pacific depot, where 1t ran
once In great while to hold the franchise.
The court held that this preterse a ope--
ating a road was merely an attempt TO
hold a right upon the street and not nn
attempt in good faith to run street rail-
way and the facts established at the Trial
warranted him in determining That the
portion of Central avenue mentioned WAS
occupied at present by but one line of
street railway and that there is but one
line on it operating cars.

QUARANTINE RAISED
CATTLE CAN NOW BE SHIPPED
TO BETTER FEED
The Government Acts for the Relief
AZ the Cattle Men OF
California

The government has just taken action
for the relief of the cattle men of Caiifor-
mia who find themselves in possession of
large bands of cattle with insufficient feed
on account of the light rainfall.
Alfred Dean, in charge of the live stock
department of the agricultural department
for the territory west of the Missouri river,
Yesterday telegraphed W. E. Hill o. this
city, who is live stock inspector, stating
that arrangements had been made whereby
the cattle men of Southern California
could ship their cattle from this state
to Purcell in Indian territory, where there
is plenty of feed, without violating the
quarantine regulations Of the United
States.
Quarantine feeding yards have been pro-
vided by the Santa Fe company at
Peach Springs, Albuquerque, La Junta and
Arkansas City, where the cattle can be
fed without mixing with cattle from other
localities.
This will be a great benefit to California,
although Southern California is not so
much interested in the work as other Sec
tious of the state, inasmuch as we have
comparatively few cattle, except those
which are shipped in each year to be fed
on sugar beet pulp.
The Santa Fe company has done good
work in getting this concession from the
government at time when 1t is so much
needed.

4 QUESTION OF IDENTITY
Juror and Spencer Says He
Was Not

The damage suit of T. j. Spencer, a
printing solicitor, against Police Officer T.
F.. Rico, In which the plaintiff claimed
$29999 from the defendant as damages for
illegal arrest. was tried yesterday before
Justice Young. The circumstances in the
case are as follows: On March IA Rico was
picking up a jury to try case in Police
Judge Owens court and came across a
man whom he summoned after obtaining
his name and address. AT the time OF the
trial the man failed 10 show up, and Judge
Owens issued an attachment for him on
the charge of contempt of court. Rico
after considerable trouble. found Spencer
who claimed that he was not the man
whom the officer had previously sum-
moned as a juror, and invited him to follow
him to the court room, which he did. Upon
hearing spencers and Rico's explanations,
Judge Owens gave the former the benefit
of the doubt and discharged him.
Spencer thereupon commenced a suit
against the officer, alleging malicious i'm
prisonment, claiming that he had suffered
great bodily pain and mental anguish; had
had to pay lawyer SIS 10 defend him and
had lost a whole days work by reason of
the false imprisonment. Mr.. Spencer testi-

the conversation he had with the defend
ant, who begged to be let off because he
had to procure thirty-fivc printers. Wit
ness declined to excuse the gentleman
from jury duty and handed him the copy
of the summons requiring him to act as
Juror.
A witness named e. P. Duffin. called by
Rico, said he had seen the officer talking
to a man on the 14th of March. whom he
believed to be Spencer. Other testimony
of a somewhat conflicting nature was sub
mitted and the court took the case under
advisemen until today.

Neglected Children

Deputy Constable Mugnemi took two lit
tie girls to the police station yesterday
morning and turned them over to the care
of Matron Gray. The Children are and
5 years of age and their name is johnson.
They are the daughters Of o. e. Johnson.
a widower residing on Thirty-eighth street,
between Main and Figueroa. 1t is claimed
that johnson has neglected his family and
allowed his daughters to grow up like lit
tie animals. The matter was brought to
the attention of the humane officer and
that Official succeeded in getting a home
for the 14-year-old daughter with Mrs.
Threlkeld on Boyle Heights, but when he
and Mrs. Gray went after her little SIS
ters on Wednesday, they ran away and
slept in the street all night. Yesterday
Mugnemi aided Mrs. Gray in her search
for the children and caught them after a
lively chase. The 14-year-old girl failed
to appear at Mrs Threlkeld's, and she, to-
gether with her and 9-year-old sisters,
is missing. The little children will be
placed in some orphan asylum. Their
father may be prosecuted for failure to
provide.

She then bid the mother "Adios' quietly,

composedly closed her eyes and went to

usual semi-annual examinations for spec
ial, technical and professional grades of
employment In the government service will

cations must be filed far enough in ad-
vance to allow TIME to ship examination

ton.

ing named registers, and it requests that all
suitable persons who desire such positions
apply at once for examination: Assistant

A STRUGGLE IMPENDING
Detective Steele and Deputy Constable
Mugnemi Not Friendly

When Greek meets Greek then comes the
tug of war but intense as Is such a strug-
gle It appears Insignificant when compared
with the conflict that is impending at the
police station, and is liable to break forth
at any moment. Police Detective Steele
las incurred the dfspleasure Of Deputy
Constable Joe Mugneml, and the latter has
threatened to smash the former officer in
the face. If he does there will be all kinds
Of trouble. The misunderstanding arose
over the dismissal of the outfit Of Span
iards, who were arrested Wednesday night
by the detectives for conducting a stud
poker joint on North Main street.
Manuel Leon and l. c. Flores, the pro-
prietors, two players and two visitors were
caught, together with the. table and chips.
The detectives were busy when the men
were in court yesterday. and could not
go there to swear to complaints against
the men. Bailiff Appel requested Deputy
Constable Mugnemi to go in search of
Detective Auble and ask him to come to
court and make some disposition Of Ae
case against the prisoners. Auble asked
Mugnemi to request Detective Steele to
swear to the complaints, which Mugnemi
did.
During the conversation later with Mr..
Appel about the complaints Steele asked
Mugnemi, so the latter says. what busi-
ness it was of his to mix up in the case.
Mugnemi replied that he had merely been
accommodating the officials Of the court.
Whereupon, so Mugnemi asserts. Steele
told him to mind his own business in future
and incidentally called him greaser This
insult ranked in the proud bosom of
Mugnemi, and he says he up and CALLED
Steele an English chaw," and threatened
to smash him in the face If he applieds
an epithet to him again. Since that meet
ing the name of greaser is no more heard
in the land around the police station, but
is spoken only in whispers.
The court finally dismissed the men, but
new complaints charging them with play
ing the game will be sworn to this week
and the men rearrested.
