LYNCH GOES TO FOLSOM.
Judge Hart Sentenced Kim Yester-
day to Five Years imprisonment.

Harry Lynch was called up fer SEN
tence yesterday by Judge Hart for the
robbery Of 3. Feraut.
The court said that Lynchs attorney
had moved for a new trial on account
of alleged errors in his instructions. Fl 9
had looked over the instructions care
fully, and found only one, and that
amounted to nothing. lie should
therefore deny the motion. As for
Lynch. the court was satisfied that ne
went to the place for the purpose of
aiding in the robbery, and not for the
purpose he had claimed. He would
take into consideration the fact that
he was not in the immediate presence
Of the robbery when It was committed,
but the officers say his record is a bad
one, and he felt that if the prisoner
We're allowed to go on in the course ne
had been pursuing, he would go from
bad TO worse. He would therefore SEN
tence l'!n to ten years in Folsom
Prison.
Attorney Eeckwith asked for ten
days stay Of proceedings. in which to
prepare a bin of exceptions, and also
that the transcript of evidence be writ
ten cut. and the request was granted.

ORR WAS LUCKY.
His Case Dismissed for Want OF the
Principal Witness.

When the robbery case of William
Orr was called in Judge Hart's depart
ment yesterday morning District Al
torney Ryan stated that the prosecu-
ton bad been unable to secure the at
tendance of w. O'Brien, the principal
witness against the defendants.
1t was one Of those cases in which a
visitor to Sacramento had robbery on
him attempted, while under the in
fiuence Of liquor, and at first he was
anXi )us to prosecute, but for some rea-
son had changed his mind, and was
trying 20 keep out OF the way of the
officers.
AS he was the principal witness for
the prosecution, and he thought it
would be doubtful If a conviction could
be mad without him, he would ask TO
have he case dismissed, but the sub
pena that had been issued for the wit
ness had been disobeyed by him, and
he wished it held over him so that he
could be brought here on his return to
his home.
The court ordered the case dismissed
and The subpoena continued, as re-

WIFE MURDER.
Stefan Baumann Enters a Plea OF
Not Guilty

Stefan Baumann was arraigned yes
terday before Judge Hart for the mur-
der Of his wife. He pleaded not guilty,
saying that he was shot first. He wished
to talk further, but Hiram W. John
son. his attorney, checked him.
The circumstances of the N-street
tragedy are yet fresh in the minds OF
the public Baumann was jealous OF
his wife, and on the Sth of November
last, while only himself and she We're
in the house, he shot and killed her.
A second shot was also fired, and when
the neighbors entered the house Bau-
mann was found lying on the floor near
his dead wife with a bullet wound in
the jaw.
1t was generally understood that, af-
ter shooting his wife, Baumann con-
cluded to shoot himself, as his pistol
lay by him on the floor, but when he
came TO put in a defense he contended
that she first shot him, and he re-
taliated.

Bear the Yoke of Matrimonv.

against Ida Collins, and vice versa, oc-
cupied Judge Johnson's department yes
terday and aired a family trouble full
Of exciting Incidents, large number

on the bench or in his private practice,
he had never known a case where both
parties were so much to blame There
was a conflict OF testimony as to wha,

see how either party could come into
court without clean hands and expect
relief
The main charge on both sides. the
Judge said. had been fully sustained.
and he should refuse to grant either
party a divorce. He should not, at
present modify his order that the hus-
band should pay $50 a month alimony
