ROGERS NOT GUILTY
He Is Tried for Counterfeiting in the
Superior Court

The entire day in the United States dis
trict court was occupied with the trial Of
Edward Rogers. charged with having in
his possession mods for making counter
felt money. Rogers was arrested in March
last Implements for counterfeiting Is and
80 cent and dollar pieces were found In his
trunk in Hotel Los Angeles on Los Angeles
street, by Detectives Auble and Hammer,
who made the arrest. When Rogers was
searched at the police station considerable
money was found on his person, one 50
cent piece having a speck of white on it,
resembling plaster Of paris, which Rogers
insisted was f1our-and-milk paste, and no
ONE was willing to swear 1t was not.
Testimony was given by two pool room
managers of having received spurious coin
from the accused, and the landlady, Mrs.
E. j. Heffner, ties flied to seeing melted
metal on the carpet. Rogers claimed that
the counterfe'ftng tools were left in the
trunk by man who had roomed with him,
and who had gone away and left them
there. The fellow has not BEEN found, blu.

swering to the name and description given

fLORA'S DECISION
TOOK STEP-MOTHER I'M PREFER
ENCE TO MOTHER
JUDGE YORK'S PECULIAR CASE
Case to Test the Eight-Hour Labor Day
Not Completed-Continued
for One Week

A somewhat remarkable fight for possess
zion Of d child look place before Judge
York yesterday, and the result seems AL
most ais remarkable as the fight Itself. The
child in question was Flora Maud Gray,
the i3-year-old daughter Of George B. Gray.
who has for several months been resident
Of the Klondike district of Alaska
In September, 1884, Gray was grained
divorce from his first wife, the mother of
Flora, and was awarded the custody Of the
child Not long afterward the wife thus
released married George Trepanier, train
master of the Southern Pacific railway at
Mo1ave, and Incidentally MENTIONED yesrer-
day as the cause of Gnay's suit for divorce.
Ultimately Gray also ventured a second at
tempt to solve the matrimonial problem and
took the daughter OF he first Mrs. Gray
no live with them. When he left for the
Klondike country, the little one therefore
remained in charge of her stepmother.
Here was where the trouble began.
Mrs. Trepanier saw an opportunity 10 get
her daughter back in Gray's abs ence, and,
after gathering what she deemed rhe reces-
sary information, she filed suit in the
superior court In her petition she alleged
that the daughter was not in the custody Of
creed, and that F'lora's present custodian
abused her and forced her 10 work in a
canning factory for a living, among girls
of bad repute and influence The mother,
stepmother and daughter were in cour; yes
terday. The s;epmother wholly denied the
allegations of THE mother, but was so con-
se,-vative that the court was about TO award
the child to her mother until the return Of
the father, when new testimony began TO
develop. 1t tended to show that Mrs. Ire
panier, the chiNd's mother, had not always
borne good reputation among her neigh
bors.
Finally. the girl herself was appealed to
for decision. In the open court she would
not talk freely. Judge York then took her
into his chambers, accompanied by the at
torneys, ard a choice was soon made The
girl preferred her stepmother and told
why. The court thereupon denied Mrs. Ire
panfer's petition What Flora's testimony
was is mot known, burt 1t seemed decisive.

A decision Of the supreme court handed
down yesterday morning affirmed the judy
ment of the lower court in the case of The
Machinery Supply company aga.ns. Blantor
Duncan. The plaintiff sued to recover the
value of pumping plant furnished defend
ant, who alleged in answer that the plan,
would not pump 5000 gallons of water per
hour as warranted and included in the en-
swer a cross-complaint for damages. Ir
answering the crosscomrf amt, plain If

sufficien, water was wholly due TO a large
quantity of sand in the well, which cloggeG
the valves and rendered them ineffective.

plaintiff and the supreme court now affirms
the judgment in the appeal
