The Medbury Hill oil excitement
has not become a matter Of history,
as some newspaper reports have it;

active work is still going on and
strong evidence is presented that
oil exists in the locality Expert
cbivion has not pronounced against
but rather in favor Of this theory.
Some two years since a chemical
anolysis confirmed the faith that
oil exists at Medbury; recent bor-
ing has only served to strengthen
and further fortify this theory, and
the samples of oil found at depth
of 800 feet in the past two weeks

the real thing is to be found here or
in that vicinity. Further boring.

FINE SHOWING
Troops Stationed at Pgesidio
Pass in Annual Review
Before General Macarthur
EXERCISES ON THE LINKS
Brilliant Dash of Cavalry
Is Applauded by Enthus-
iastic Crowd of Spectators
EXERCISES ON THE LINKS

| Uncle Sans troops made a brilliant
| showing In the annual review before
| General Macarthur on the golf links at
i the Presidio yesterday morning.
Everything was in favor of the in
srection. The day was cloudless, the
! temperature mild and there was al
most no wind at all. Shortly before 9
o'clock the troops were drawn up on
the south side of the golf links in the
following order: Commencing near the
J golf clubhouse was the Coast Artillery
! on foot, under command of Colonel
Charles Morris. Next came the Tenth
Infantry. under command of Colonel
Charles E. Noble Then the Twenty
eighth Infantry, IN command of Colonel
| William L. Pitcher. Then four battal-
ions of artillery, under command OF
! Captain John L. Hayden, Captain
Charles A. Bennett. Captain Ira A
Haynes and Captain A. S. Conklin On
| the extreme western wing was the
third squadron of the Ninth Cavalry,
in command of Colonel Edwin A. God
win.
Promptly at o'clock General Mac
! Arthur, accompanied by his aides. Ma
| jor Parker w. West and Captain
Frank L. Winn, With Colonel George
Andrews, came on the field. They were
received by a grand fanfare of trump
cts and the major generals salute OF
thirteen guns was fired from battery
of artillery situated on the brow OF the
hill General Macarthur and staff took
up their stand near the northern line
of the links, Immediately after which
the regiments headed by Colonel Nor
ris passed before him in review. They
presented brilliant appearance.
Flags waved in the air and bright
accouterments and drawn sabers fash
ed in the sunshine. So soon as the in
fantry and foot artillery had passed
the reviewing stand they took their
places on the brow of the hill, where
they remained at rest until the review
was over. The artillery and cavalry
then swung into line and passed before
the reviewing officer at a trot. On the
third round they made the turn under
full gallop, which was the event of the
day.
The cavalry. with sabers drawn, sent
up great shout as they dashed by the
commanding officer, which was re-
echoed by the applause from hundreds
of people who lined the links and
perched all over the bunkers. The en-
joyment of the day was greatly height
ened by the martial music of the three
splendid bands which played alternate
ly during the exercises. Ine maneu-
vers concluded at 10 o'clock, when the
several troops returned to their differ
ent camps.
Following the review, General Mac
Arthur and staff were entertained at
luncheon by Colonel Morris and then
the general inspection of the post took
place.
The following transfers were made at
the request of the officers concerned: |

When he left his employers office last
Monday afternoon he took with him

Yesterday morning Mrs. Marnell

They found the unfortunate man sit
ting in bed. propped up by pillows. His
head and night shirt were covered with
blood. On the bed, close to his right
hand, lay the revolver from which the
shot had been fired. A powder-burned
hole in the right temple showed where
the bullet had entered.
Charles Monaghan said yesterday
that Evans was not short in his ac-
counts.
The suicide had been a member Of
the Foresters and the Eagles, but had
withdrawn from both societies.

If the attorneys in the Eppinger case
are endeavoring to gain time they sue
ceeded splendidly yesterday. The en-
tire morning session and part of the
afternoon was occupied by the court in
listening to the arguments of oppos-
ing counsel on a point of law. When
the case was called Colonel F. E. Beck,
manager of the International Banking
Corporation, resumed the stand. He
was questioned regarding a transaction
with the defendant on April IL. when
a loan of s17. 900 was made to Eppinger.
AS Eppinger is being tried for obtain
ing $500 on April IA the attorneys for
the defense objected to any reference
being made 10 other transactions.
Judge Lawlor excused the jury that
the point might be argued without
danger of prejudice.
The prosecution contended that the
loans made on April IL and April IA
were all part of the same transaction
and were the result Of conversation
wherein Colonel Beck agreed to ad
vance Eppinger & Co. $4,000, taking
warehouse receipts for wheat stored at
Crockett as security. The attorneys
for the defense on the otner hand ar
gued that Jacob Eppinger was. being
tried on an indictment charging him
with fraud committed on April IA,
when he secured $4,000 from the Inter
national Banking Corporation on ware
house receipts. Other acts of his or
oral agreements made at a previous
time they claimed should not be ad-
mitted
The stand taken by the defense was
sustained by Judge Lawlor, who, in
his opinion, said:
The offense is alleged to have been
committed on April IA, when false rep
reservations were made. There have
been introduced in evidence three ware
house receipts and two insurance poll
cies. 1t is now sought to connect GER
tain conversations and acts prior to
April IA with the transactions on that
date. The court is Of the opinion that
the two were distinct transactions and
might be made the basis of separate
charges. The objection is sustained"
Colonel Beck was recalled to the
stand and in answer to questions on
direct examination by Attorney Camp
bell said he had always had absolute
faith in the integrity of the defendant.
When Eppinger represented that he
had wheat stored in the warehouse at
Crockett the witness unhesitatingly
took his word for it and loaned him
money at 515 per cent, valuing the
wheat at $22 ton. He also believed
in the validity OF the warehouse re-
ceipts. The case will be resumed this
morning.

STOCKTON TO BE PLACED
ON THE OVERLAND ROUTE
Southern Pacific Company Making
Several Changes in Running Time
of Its Trains.

of Its Trains.
Stockton is to enjoy the privilege
soon of seeing a through overland
Southern Pacific train pass in and out
of it's city limits Yesterday the
Southern Pacific Company announced
that beginning on Sunday train No. g..
leaving here at s p. M, will go East
by way of Stockton instead of Benicia
as at present, which will make a diff
ference of two hours in its arrival at
Reno, but will give the Slough City
and the stations between it and this
city whatever benefits may be derived
from the eastbound traffic.
This will be the first time that the
regular overland trains have run by
way of Stockton since the Benieia
route was established by the South
ern Pacific Company. On Sunday
there will also be a change in the run
ming time of the Portland train. IN
stead of leaving here at p. m. its
departure time will be sos and the
train which now leaves for Reno at
sos will leave at o'clock. The lat
ter, by reason of the shorter route,
will reach Reno two hours in advance
of No. 6. The changes are the result
of the frequent appeals of the people
Of Stockton for a through overland
service.
