THE EXTRACTION WRIT DENIED
MRS. BoTKIN MAY NEVER BE
TRIED.
California Court Ruling In Celebrat-
ed Case-She Is Not a Fugitive
From Justice-Law Defective

San Francisco, Oct. 24.-Mrs. Cor
della Botkin viii not be extradited to
the state of Delaware. If she is to be
tried FOR the murder of Mrs. John P.
Dunning. the trial will take place in
this state.
Such was the conclusion reached by
Superior Judges Cook, Wallace, Sea-
well, Trout and Borden upon the writ
of habeas corpus sued for by Mrs.
Botkin's attorneys. The decision was
rendered today.
There yet remains the question
whether or not Mrs. Botkin can
legally be held for trial here, under
section q of the penal code, which
gives, among persons liable to punish
ment under the laws of this state, all
persons who commit in whole or in
part, any crime within this state"
Upon the construction of this sec
tion Judge Carroll Cook alone will hear
argument. So no final order was made
on the writ today. Judge Cook
merely ordering d continuance until
Saturday.
With regard to the section named,
upon his honor's decision will rest Mrs
Botkin's fate so far as a trial here is
concerned.
The five judges, in holding that Mrs.
BotlIin cannot under the law be eX-
tradited, simply decide that the legis-
lature has unfortunately omitted to
provide for such cases as that of Mrs.
Botkin's. Under the law as it now
stands she is not fugitive from JUS
tice, Mrs. Botkin having never set
foot in the state of Delaware nor is
there any way by which she can be
extradited. The judges say this error
can be rectified by an act of congress.
but until this is done the law must
be held to be defective in this respect.
All parties interested were in court
when the decision was given.
The opinion of the court was written
by Judge Carroll Cook and concurred
in by all his associates Judge Cook
read the decision, which covered 15
pages of typewriter matter.

protested against the French violation of
Egyptian territory. adding that Egypt
had never lost sight of the reoccunation
of the province of the Soudan. which are
the actual sources of the vitality of
Egypt, and from which she only withdrew

conquest of khartoum would fail to have
its effect if the valley Of the Nile was not
restored to Egypt.
Mustapha concluded with referring to
the Anglo French discussion on the evac-
uation OF Fashoda, urging Lord Cromer
to use his good offices with the MARQUIS

and that all the provinces occupied up to

 DISAPPEARANCE
Spring Valley Water Company Looking for Collector
 L. M. Henry.
RunnOred That the Missing Mans Ac- counts Are Short and an Inves-
 tigation Will Follow.

The Spring Valley Water Company is minus collector. L. M. Henry, one of the trusted employees, who has a wife and one child, has not been seen since Monday last by either friends or rela- tives. and much anxiety is felt for his welfare. For twelve years Henry has been collecting for the company through out the Mission district. and for a time lived at TWenty-second street near Mis- sion, but short time ago, according to reports, he moved to a rooming house on O'Farrell street, near Taylor, and again, leaving his family, took a room for two nights at % O'Farrell street in a lodging house run by Louis Audet.
 It is a well known fact by the friends of the missing man that he is an ex- eeedingly hard drinker at times and 1t Is thought that he is in the city enjoying himself, but rumor has gained ground and has fled.
 At any rate. the company is alarmed at the continued absence of Henry. and reports of the collector. A thorough canvass of the ground formerly covered by Henry is being gone over
 It is not possible that he can be in the companys debt to any great extent, if at all, he had accounted for all moneys collected up to two days prior to his mysterious disappearance No member of the company is aware of the address of Henry nor of that of any member of his family, and it is possibly due to this fact that he cannot be found. although ii is acknowledged that Mrs. Henry called at the office but Q day or two ago and in quired if her husband was still in the company's employ, and whether or not he had been seen there within the past few days
 While the chief clerk of the companv has been working on the books no other bookkeeper has been given any knoWl- edge of the standing of accounts, and it is thought nothing will be done until determined that the now suspected col lector had fled the country to escape prosecution Many friends of the miss ing man are of the opinion that Henry will return when he learns of the anx- iety felt for his safety and for the money which he had in charge at the time of his disappearance.

TO SIMPLIFY
 LICENSING A Matter of Interest to the Three Bay
 Cities.
The Present System a Source of Annoyance to Many
 Interests.
A Conference Proposed for the Pur- pose of Promoting Uni-
 forrl1ity.
Oakland Office San Francisco Call.
 o0S Broadwav Ian 2S

Some time ago it was proposed that a conference be held between repre- sentatives of Alameda. Oakland and Berkeley for the purpose of agreeing upon a system of local licenses that would be satisfactory to all three places. This conference has not been held and there is daily growing need of uniformity of the license system on this side of the bay.
 The town of Alameda Is now consid- ering a new license ordinance. and it is believed that if officials of the three towns got together this never-ending source of trouble to merchants, ex- pressmen and others could be obvi- ated.
 In the Oakland Police Court cases are constantly arising of hack drivers and expressrnen and drivers. of deliv- cry wagons being arrested for coming into this city and doing business with out taking out the necessary license. On the other hand, If Alameda has a funeral and requires more hacks than are available in her town, no carriage can go over to Oakland to take part in the funeral cortege unless the drivers fortify themselves with a license cost ing several dollars per annum. In Berkeley the same efforts have been made to protect the merchants of the town from the incursions of Oakland solicitors, and the result Is that the three towns are constantly arresting people and subjecting them to much annoyance over a matter which could easily be adjusted, for it is not impos- sible for the different governments to agree upon some system by which each shall receive its share of revenue from the license business without working hardships on the other two towns.
 The Merchants Exchange of Oak land has discussed this license matter very thoroughly and its members could send a delegation to such conference that would be a material help in ad- justing the matter, for while many consider it necessary to protect this side of the bay from San Francisco mer- chants. it is not generally believed that there is any great necessity to protect one of the bay cities against another. now that they are so rapidly growing together that it is difficult to distin- guish the boundary lines.
