No COURT
YESTERDAY
Gear Said He Was Sick
and Cases Went
Over.

There was no session of Circuit Court
yesterday. The jury appeared as usual.
A half dozen attorneys were in attend
ance, but at $50 o'clock, the time set
for the opening Of court, Judge Gear
had not arrived. The absence of the
Court caused no comment, for 1t is not
an unusual thing for Gear to be from
ten minutes to an hour late in opening
his court.
The hearing of the argument in the
Sumner case was set specially for yes
terday morning, and Henry Highton
and F. E. Thompson, who appeared for
the respondent, were ready to proceed.
John K Sumner himself was on hand,
as we'll as number of other parties in
terested in the suit George Davis, how
ever, who appeared for the complain
ant, failed to appear, He very likely
knew more about the Courts where
abouts than anyone else concerned,
A little before 10 o'clock Judge Gears
clerk, Frank Loucks, appeared and told
the judge would not be down.
Judge Robinson appeared on the
bench a little after 10 o'clock, and after
court was opened stated: Judge Gear
has requested me to announce that all
matters set for hearing before him this
I,1
o'clock tomorrow morning. The judge
| is unwen and will not be able to be
here today"
Judge Robinson then made the order
continuing the Sumner case, and in re-
ply to a question from Deputy Attorney
General Cathcart, stated that the Grim
| inal case would also go over until this
morning The jury was called and ex-
cused, also by Judge Gears request,
until 10 o'clock today. Court was then
adjourned, as to term matters, for the
day.
No information was obtained among
court officials as to the character of
Judge Gears illness, though one of the
jurors stated that he had seen the Sec
ond judge on the street a short time
before the hour set for the opening Of
court, and this was corroborated by the
appearance of Gear himself in the aft
ernoon On a former occasion when
Judge Gear was "unwelr' he held court
making a number Of dismissals in GRIM
linal cases and FORGETTING bail in others,
and on the following day all these or
ders were set aside, the judge announc-
Ii ing that he had been ''unwell' on the
previous day, and did not want clients
| or attorneys to suffer from his actions.

MIXING FORMALIN
WITH LOCAL MILK

The Board of Health will criminalIy
prosecute cases where any further
adulteration of milk with formalin is
reported. This was decided upon yes
terday after another report by Food
Commissioner Shorey and an opinion
from Attorney General Dole that the
statutes now on the books were suffici-
ent to enable the Board to act. All that
Is necessary in his opinion is to prove
that the preservative is actually in
furious to health, within the meaning
OF the act passed by the legislature.
DR.. Sloggett and DR.. Moore were of
the opinion that formalin was Injurious
to the health, particularly of children.
The new opinion of the Attorney Cen
eral made a. regulation upon the sub
ject unnecessary.

APPEAL. IN THE
INCOME TAX CASE
Assignment of Errors Perfected
In the Federal Court
Yesterday.

The appeal in the income tax case
was perfected yesterday and the pa
pers will go to San Francisco on the
next steamer.
The plaintiffs in the case of W. c..
Peacock ct al. VS.. J. w. Pratt, as as
SCISSOR, make an assignment of seven
teen errors. The errors alleged are as
to the holding of Judge Estee, that the
allegation as to the condition of the
Treasury was not material; that the
court had no power to enjoin; that the
passage of the act complained of was
within the general power of the Legis-
lature; that persons paying money by
compulsion of legal process can recover
it back and in holding that Section 1924
Revised Statutes had any bearing upon
the case at issue.
Mr.. Robertson, who appeared for the
Territory, objected to paragraph ten
of the bill of exceptions, which alleged
that the court erred in dismissing the
complaint absolutely and without leave
to amend. He stated that the plaintiffs
did not ask leave to amend and the
exception therefore was not proper.
Judge Estee held that the matter
should properly be presented in the
Court of Appeals and allowed the as
signment of error
