COMPLAINT DISMISSED
Attorney Hughes Will Not Face the
Charge of Larceny

j. w. Hughes, the attorney, has been al
lowed to resume his customary business the
complaint charging him with petit larceny
having been dismissed by Justice Dung
yesterday. There was a lack of proof OF Grim
lnal intention at the time he went with Sam
Sweitzer to Kedondo and was alleged TO
have removed liquors, cigars, etc., from
the Unique saloon, the sale OF a half interest
IN which he had negotiated; that day to his
client, Alexander. As IN the case OF SWEET
ger. the case could not stand without evl
dence, and now both complaints have been
dismissed.
Alexander claims to be short on the stock
purchased to the extent of five bottles of
Damiana bitters, 300 cigars, two bottles OF
sherry and sum OF money originally esti-
mated by him to approximate $50 in amount.

GOOD STORY SPOILED
No One Saw Joe Hunter Lead the
Horse Away

A fresh sensation was noised abroad yes
terday in the Tropico murder case, but IN
vestigation proved that it had no founda
ton upon fact. 1t was reported that tive
young ladies living at Burbank saw Joe
| Hunter on the evening when Wong Sing
Hay was killed leading the dead Chinaman'
horse down to the San Fernando road, where
| Harry Clark says the animal was turned
loose. The story was quite explicit. the
young ladies being said to have heard some
one in the distance shout, "All right; come
on"
In the light of Clark's affidavit the cor
roborative statements appeared highly I'M
portant, and it seemed certain that Joe Hun
ter could never escape conviction on such
testimony, as it would be impossible to
reconcile his act with the theory of inno
cence. The mere fact that he was leading
the horse away, with Clark scouting in front
and informing him that the coast was clear,
if thoroughly established, would be conclu-
sive evidence of guilty knowledge Of the
murder
Happily for Joe Hunter, and rnhappily
for the story, there is no truth in the re-
ported discovery of such evidence. The
rumor was traced to its source, and the
facts are as follows:
Two young men, one resident OF this
city, and one of Tropco, were calling one
night on two young ladies and their mother
in the southwest part of this city. While
there they said in a facetious mood that
they could cast some light on the murder OF
the laundryman, having seen Joe Hunter
leading the horse away on the night OF the
T. s'ioSb y n q WHOA T
term, the statement was made in such ap-
parent good faith that the lady told it to a
neighbor as fact; that lady passed it on to
mutual friend, the wife Of Spring street
merchant, who yesterday morning was re-
minded of it by reading The Herald ac-
count of the alleged confession of Joe Hun
ter to Mrs. Edinger.
Realizing the Importance of the statement
of the boys if true, this lady urged her hus-
band to inform the district attorney of their
admissions and this was done yesterday
afternoon by the merchant, who asked that
Z. b. Clark the father Of the convicted boy,
be sent to see him at his store.
Clark came at clock. as instructed by
the district attorney, but the names of the
boys could not be given, as they were un-
known to the merchant. The latter, how
ever, asked that the matter be kept quiet
until the story had been run down, agreeing
to obtain the names Of the boys and impart
the information to the district attorney.
Some way the impression was conveyed
that the horse had been seen by the young
ladies, and so the story spread abroad that
they would be important witnesses in the
case. The young men, however, who fool
ishly started the sensation, say they never
knew anything about the case more than
what they saw in the newspapers, and tn =
new sensation has gone glmmering.

Fish Hogs

during the dry season the Water
company have concluded not to ke. a
Waterman at Marlett Lake during The
freely circulated in this city that the BIC
flsh pond was open to the world. and
that the big trout could be yanked out of
the lake without any permit. Several
parties concluding that there was 4
pretty good lay out for trout there and
ina II was free to the public, have gone
up filled with large expectations of a big
catch. They have discovered. however.
that the lake is not open to the public
and that a guard is there doing business
the same as Yer.
several parties who have gone I'D and
caught fish have been stopped on the
road and their fish contiscated. The lake
belongs to the Virginia and Gold Hill
water Company arc is filled with trout
ne popular Impression is that the fish
J"stle each other in the water and keep
stationary on dark nights or carry Ian
terms for fear of collisions. While this is
not strictly true, the fish are so numer-
Gus there that a novice can catch about
nifty an hour with n pole. Of course
with two poles you do better.
The company shut down on the public
fishing there because of that class of
fisherman lr"wn as fish hogs who
never know when to quit. Men who
were allowed to fish there would come
down the hill with a gunny sack full on
thelr backs. 1t was this sort of hoggish-
ness that caused the shutting down of
the lake as a public fishing ground.
