LAWREY'S EXCUSE.
He F1oated Back to Town to
Court His Former Wife.

e. c. Lawrey, recently arrested by
Special officer Carroll for disturbing
the peace at Eleventh and o streets,
yesterday morning in the City Justices
Court entered a plea of guilty. Sen
tence was postponed until this morn
ing
Several weeks ago Lawrey was bound
over to keep the peace, of his wife, and
in default of $500 bonds was commit
ted to the County Jail. A few days
ago he was released by Justice Ander-
son, with the understanding that he
would, not return to Sacramento.
That he did return was evidenced by
his arrest by Carroll, and by his own
statement in court that he had since
his release met his wife in this city
several times. He informed the court
that he and his wife had made up"
and that though she had been granted
a divorce they had since resumed the
relations of husband and wife. He
was here, he said, for the purpose of
meeting his wife by appointment, when
Carroll arrested him.
Justice Anderson reminded Lawrey
that he had failed to keep faith with
the court by returning to this city, and
said he believed that both Lawrey and
his eXWife would regret it if they ever
resumed marital relations. Judgment
will be passed this morning

their action the Beet Pullers and the

now until the end of the season the

sist of four teams Sacramento, San
Francisco, Oakland and Santa Cruz.
Watsonville was a good baseball
town, considering it's size, but its size
interfered with the game as a money
making proposition. It's population was
not large enough to maintain its team.
San Jose has been a poor baseball
town of late, owing, it is said, TO the
tactics adopted by Chief Borchers. who
missed it when he had his big row with
Arrelanes, O'Dea and other members.
The cream of the two outgoing teams

pei the defendant to allow plaintiff to

written by DR.. P. Austin and Mrs. Dr.
2. Austin, mother and father of plain
tiff, also letters by plaintiff to the de-
ceased, all written in the years 1876
1T-TS-79 and 1880
The decision quotes opinions of the
courts of other States, the Supreme
Court of California not having decided
the precise point. The request for in
spection of the diaries is denied, the
PLAINTIFFS allegations being on informa-
ton and belief and insufficient, but the
request for inspection of the letters is

DEMANDED GOOD BAIL BONDS.
THE CITY ATTORNEY CARRIES
HIS POINT.
Eiendish Chinaman Came Near Be-
ing Admitted to Bail in
the Sum of 81, 500.

The name of Tom Hong, the China
man who was recently detected in the
act of criminally assaulting a twelve
year-oId white girl, was on the City
Justices docket yesterday morning,
though he had been arrested on a war
rant issued by Township Justice
Henry.
1t was stated that Justice Henry
would raise no objection to having the
case transferred to the City Justice
Court, and with that understanding
Justice Anderson assumed charge and
City Attorney De Ligne drew up a new
complaint
Attorney c. r. Jones appeared for the
Chinaman, and by consent the pre-
liminary examination was set for Sat
urday next. The question of bail being
raised, Justice Anderson fixed the
amount at 81, 800, stating that he would
demand high grade security.
City Attorney De Ligne thought the
amount was too low, and called atten-
tion to the fact that it was customary
to fix bail in ordinary felony cases at
$1,000, and that the one under consid-
Grafton was of the most atrocious ma
ture.
Justice Anderson said that in fixing
bail he did not intend to presume that
the person charged was guilty.
Judge Starr, who had appeared for
the Chinaman before Justice Henry
informed Justice Anderson that the
Township Justice had fixed bail at
$1,000, and that his action had been
lauded by the newspapers.
Justice Anderson said he had not
seen what the papers said about the
matter-that as a rule he did not pay
much attention to the papers. and that
he did not propose, in fixing bail, to pre-
sumo any prisoner guilty.
Judge Starr said the papers merely
reflect what the people think about
such matters.
Justice Anderson said he didn't care
what was thought, and that he didn' t
propose to fix any exorbitant bond, but
would insist on good sureties. He
thought $1,000 would hold the prisoner
as we'll as $4,000.
City Attorney De Ligne thought that
in view of the heinous nature of the
offense. the bail ought to be fixed at a
higher figure.
After the routine business of the
court had been transacted, Justice An
derson reverted to the case. and said
if the City Attorney was not satisfied
with the bail as fixed he would in
crease the amount to So 800, and his
decision meeting with the approval of
Mr.. De Ligne, the bail was increased to
that figure.
