A BAD REPUTATION
Given to Charles Compton by Promi'
nent People of This City

The whole of the evidence introduced
by the defense in the Compton forgery
case was in yesterday at p M AT that
time counsel for defendant moved that
nearly all the evidence presented by the
prosecution tending to show that there
existed a conspiracy between the defend
ant, Compton, and Davis and Howard,
be stricken out. These motions en-
braced nearly all the testimony of
character that must necessarily convict
the prisoner, if the jury should bring in
a verdict of guilty. The court promptly
and firmly denied these motions.
Numbers of witnesses were next called
by the people to prove the character of
defendant, Compton, and they all cheer
fully testified that for truth, honesty and
integrity it was bad. Among the wit
nesses who knew the unsavoriness of
Compton's reputation were Supervisors
Hanley and Davis, Cashier Howe of the
First National bank and Secretary Hart
of the Southern California Music COM
pany.
Earl Rogers opened the argument for
the prosecution shortly afterward. 1t Is
very likely that the addresses to the jury
will be concluded in time to permit the
case to go to it before the close of the
afternoon session today.

WoMAN'S REFORM LEAGUE
Socialism and Charity the Subject Of
Rev. Bliss's Lecture

The regular meeting of the woman's
department of the Union Reform league
was held yesterday afternoon at Guild
hall, with the usual large attendance.
Preliminary to the address, Rev. W.
D. p. Bliss announced that during his
absence from the city for the next two
weeks DIR. Moore of Santa Barbara
would deliver the lectures-next week
on Direct Legislation and on that fol-
lowing Public Ownership"
The subject of the address of the
afternoon was "The Relation of Charities
to Socialism"
Socialists" said the speaker. center
into the movement from two standpoints,
humanitarianism and justice. but more
largely from the former motive. Work
ingmen's organizations do not want
charity, but justice and equality; conse-
quently we find among them an antag-
onism to charity. The word charity is
used in the modern sense of relief. and
not in the old Greek sense of love. The
modern charity has grown up with an
evolution of its own. Associated char
ity had its rise in London with the prison
work of DR.. Chalmers, and in America
in the city of Boston. Many Socialists
oppose the associated charities move
ment, with an implied sneer at its stat
istical attitude. The poor feel that they
want work and cannot get it, and. though
people may try to relieve their wants
with the kindliest feeling. they resent
it. They want to be Independent. and
when they cannot, they become hyper
sensitive. The feeling underlying this
is born of a self-respecting manhood and
womanhood.
I'VE are the creatures of early en-
vironment, and when we consider the
surroundings of the poor, the wonder
is that they are as noble and kind as they
are. The person who is not dependent
on work cannot realize the difficulty of
obtaining it, and the poor feel that an
attempt to analyze their poverty is an
insult
Said an eminent writer: The philan-
thropy that proposes to relieve suffering
postpones the philanthropy that i'm
proves conditions This is what the
! poor feel and express in a coarser way
/ but they must not be left to suffer anC
die while Socialism is coming; therefore
we need charities.
Women can do as much for Socialism
as they have done for charity"

MUCH NEEDED
A Decision on the Status
of Police Judges
ONE WAY OR THE OTHER
FowLER's EXPLANATION sATIs-
FIEs THE COURT

He Had a Bona Eide Chill-Suit on Q
Freeze-Out Game-Bad Conduct
of Mary Leach

There are now three cases in the SUI
perior court in which the legal existence
of the police judges of this city is ques-
toned. They may be all decided before
the middle of next week, and in justice
to everybody they should be, one way or
another. Officer Fowler satisfactorily
explained his use Of whisky in the wit
ness room on Monday and was purged of
contempt. The iMacginnisses and the
Williamses, who constitute the Pacific
Oil Refining and Supply company, are
at war on game of freeze out. A burg
1arious negro junk dealer was sent to
Folsom for one year and William H.
Barnes, the young Engishman who
forged checks to procure money for
riotous living was let off with two years
at San Quentin. In both cases Judge
Smith was merciful to the culprits, each
of whom had more than one accusation
to his credit. The other forger, Charles
Compton, was given bad name by a
number of prominent citizens. His
case may be expected to reach the
hands of the jury this afternoon.

CHINESE HABEAS CORPUS
A Legal Status That Should Be Deter
mined One Way or Other

Acting upon the suggestion of the
judges of the superior courts in their
opinion on the All Louie petition for a
writ of prohibition against Police Judge
M. r. Owens, the attorneys who have
the Chinese clientele resolved to bring
the matter of the legality of the police
judges of this city to an issue by means
of the writ of habeas corpus. For this
purpose one All Sang, arrested by Spe-
cial officer Ross Phillips on December
IL, 1897, on the charge of unlawfully deal
ing and playing fan tan through the
medium of nickels, bowl, a stick and
dominoes for money, and arraigned be-
fore d. c. Morrison, police judge, was
surrendered by his bondsmen to the
custody of the chief of police yesterday,
and his petition for a writ of habeas
corpus filed in the superior court. The
illegality of All Sangs arrest and de-
tention in the city Jail is gone into fully
in the petition, and covers the entire
ground made use of in the All Louie case.
The writ came up for hearing before
Judge Van Dyke this afternoon, the pc
titioner being represented by Messrs.
Appel G. Whitney and Marble Il Phibbs,
and the chief of police by Special Deputy
City Attorney Chambers. The latter
gentleman stated that he was not ready
to proceed with the case at this time.
Judge Van Dyke suggested then that
it be continued for hearing until after
the court in banc decides the matter of
the city of Los Angeles VS.. w. w. Ev-
erett and his bondsmen, which involves
the same points as the present case, no.
tably the legal existence of police judges
and police clerks under the Whitney
act in the city of Los Angeles. This will
be heard on Friday in Department six
All parties being agreeable the hear
ing of All Sang's petition was then set
for next Monday morning by Judge Van
Dyke. and the prisoner was released on
bonds given by his friends. On Monday
he will again go through the cere-
| mony of being surrendered to keep up
| the legal fiction tina. he is restrained OF
| his liberty.

FoRGER BARNES GOES UP
Allowed to Plead Guilty to One Charge.
Two Years in San Quentin

William III. Barnes, the young English
man who has lately been victimizinS To-
cal saloon keepers by foisting upon them
spurios checks and pocketing the
amounts they called for, was permitted
to plead guilty to one charge of forgery
yesterday, with the understanding that
the two others would be dismissed. The
attorney for the defense made plea for
his client of former good conduct and
attempted to palliate the crimes by say
ing that Barnes had given these checks
expecting to be prepared to take them
up himself when he received returns
from his gold mine. These explanations
of course, left the circumstance OF the
forgery of fictitious names as matter
of business for the purpose of raising
the wind" unexplained. There is no
doubt, however that the prisoner had
some influential friends left in his
trouble, and some of these were present
to say a good word for him.
Judge Smith, however, contented him.
self with the statement of the attorney,
and, after reading his usual little lee
ture to Barnes, sent him to San Quentin
for two years.

TO BE TRIED TODAY
Meath and Brown Must Answer TO.
Disturbing the Peace

Harry Meath and A. II. Brown, for
whose arrest warrants for disturbing the
peace We're sworn out Monday at the in
stance of Chief of the Fire Department
Moore and Assistant Chief Smith, were
presented before the police court yester-
day afternoon at 1:30 o'clock by Officer
Henderson. The cases We're continued
until this afternoon at 3 o'clock in order
that both sides could have an opportun-
ity to secure the attendance of witnesses.
The two men We're released on bonds
Both the defendants had expected that
they would be charged with turning in
false alarms of fire, but, instead, the
charge was that of disturbing the peace.
1t is based upon the alleged misconduct
of the two men last Thursday night,
when they went to the quarters of chem
ical engine company No. and aroused
the members by yelling: Fire." The
horses were released and hitched up, the
firemen supposing, of course, there was
a fire in the immediate vicinity of the
engine house. At this Meath and Brown
hooted at them and called them vile
names. 1t is probable that the addition
al charge of impeding the progress of a
fire engine while responding to an alarm
will be preferred against the men.
