IMPORTANT DECISION.
Relating to the Filing Of Declara-
ton Of Homestead.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. LIN filing
a declaration of homestead a person
must comply with the strict letter OF
the stateute in order that the property
may be protected from forced sale.
This is the substance Of decision
handed down to-day by the Supreme
Court in the suit of r. M. Reid ana
wife against u the Englehart-Davidson
Mercantile Company to quiet title to
their home in San Bernardino County
The mercantile company recovered
Judgment in a Justices Court, and
Reid's interest was sold by the Sheriff
under an execution, the company buy
ing in the property. Reid and his wife
brought action to quiet title, setting ur
the claim that the land was protected
by homestead They won their case
In discussing the case on appeal Jus
tice Harrison recites that the declara-
ton made by r. M. Reid reads:
81 hereby declare that l am married
and that 1 do now actually reside with
my family on that certain land, etc.
The statute sets forth that horne
stead not exceeding $1,000 in value may
be selected and claimed by any head
of family" Reid in his declaration
failed to state that he was the head OF
a family, and that the statement. II
hereby declare that I am married" is
defective in not showing that he is the
head of a family.
The judgment of the lower court Is
therefore reversed.

THE PHILIPPINES.
Spain Does Not Retain Possession
of a Single Island.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The posi-
tive statment is made here by
authority that Spain does not retain
possession of a single island in the
Philippine archipelago.
This is called forth by the declara-
ton in the Spanish Cortes yesterday
of the Count d'Almenas, that through
ignorance the American Commission
ers had allowed three islands at the
northern extremity of the archipelago
to remain under Spanish control
through their definition in the treaty
of the boundary of the group.
There is stated to be no doubt as to
the sufficiency of the treaty clause 10
cede the entire archipelago. If there
has been failure on this point, that
fact will not rebound to Spain's benefit,
for it is held officially that the islands
north of the Philippine archipelago be-
long to Japan.

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY.
Result of the Test Made of thu
Marconi System.

s NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-The cruiser
New York, flagship of Rear Admiral
Farquhar, and the battleship Massa-
chusetts returned tonight to the. an
chorage off Fifty-eighth street, North
River after being employed for three
days in evolutions for the purpose of
demonstrating the working of the Mar
conf system of wireless telegraphy
under various practical conditions.
Mr.. Marconi was handicapped by in
complete instruments. which had been
brought to the United States simply
for the purpose of reporting the inter-
national yacht races. and was unable
to give the Government Board as thor
ough demonstration of the capabili-
ties of the apparatus as he would have
wished. But the result of the workings
of the three sets of instruments en-
ployed in the tests was to show the
Government Board that there is prac
tical utility in the system, which would
be of inestimable value to the naval
vessels during evolutions of any kind,
and especially when on scouting duty

Board will be obliged to call attention

sheepherders, pleaded guilty in the
United States District Court to-day or
having unlawfully grazed their sheep
on the United States forestry reserve
in Stanislaus County. Judge De Haven
fined them $25 each, and they paid the
fine.
The Judge said that if the question
were raised as to the power OF the
court to enforce any penalty for an IN
fraction of the regulations of the De-
partment of the Interior, he would have
his doubts.
The matter will be tested in the
United States courts in this city shortly
in the case of j. Echeverria, who has
been arrested on a similar charge. The
sheepmen complain that the regulation
legislates against them as a class, While
cattle raisers are allowed to Craze tnelr

CRUSHED BENEATH CARS.
Two Men Killed and Another Badly
Injured in Red Bluff Accident.

RED BLUFF, Nov. 1T is learned
to-day that the accident which occurred
in the railroad yards last evening in
stead of killing one man and woundlnS
another, killed two and perhaps fatally
wounded third The one who was
taken to the hospital last night with
both legs cut off died a few hours later.
To-day a Lhl.d and fourth man be-
longing to the same crowd were found
at Cottonwood. One of them had both
legs broken and his chest SO badly
crushed that probably he will die. From
his statement it is learned that after
being crushed he hung on to the side
of the car, and with the help of his
partner succeeded in reaching Cotton
wood, distance of eighteen miles,
where they called the trainmen ana
were helped down.
The inquest on the bodies OF the two
killed was held here to-day. One was
named Charles Staples, and has fam
lily in Graniteville. Nevada County. The
others are still unknown.
The verdict of the Coroner's jury was
that they came to their death by being
crushed beneath the cars. Blame was
attached to no one.

b.
to the fact that during these tests It
was impossible for any instrument To-
Gated within the circumscribed radius
of transmission to destroy the effective
ness Of other instruments at any time
When the Massachusetts, for instance
was telegraphing to the New York the
operator at Navesink sent message
at the same time, and the result on
the receiving side of the New York $
set was a mass OF unreadable charac-
ters caused by the two series of cleo
|tricaI impulses reaching the instrument
at the Same time. This was done delib-
erately. Mr.. Marconi said that he
could prevent this interference on the
part Of a third station, but that he
would not demonstrate it during these
tests, because he had not yet received
his patents for that feature.
