He Disputes Certain Statements of
Mr.. Hunt as to His Bias for
the BELL Phone.

H. J. Gonden, upon having his attention
called to the published statement of A. B.
Hunt said; MI Hunt wants to impress
upon the public mind his suspicion that
have been in the employ of the Bell tele-
phone company because he thinks this may
lessen the effect of the publication of the
facts which have gathered in my investi-
CATION of the double telephone proposition.
cannot see that Mr.. Hunts suspicion has
any bearing upon the facts which 1 intend
to publish but for the information of Mr..
Hunt l am free to say that he was mis-
taken, as usual, when he published the
statement that was in the employ of the
Bell company last year. Mr. Hunt evil

last year for the purpose of investigating
the telephone situation. the reports OF

trip was taken while I was in the en-
ploy OF The Bee. I wss engaged for the
work by Mr.. Victor Rosewater and my
salary and expenses were paid 10 me by
Mr.. Rosewater. Before starting upon the
trip Mr.. Rosewaters instructions, except

ton note from c. II. Judson, an engineer
In the employ OF the Independent telephone
people, IN which II is stated that the Bulle-
tin OF the League OF American Municipali-
ties is subsidized by the Bell company, and
want to pronounce this statement as an

At 10 o'clock Monday morning, Judge
Sutton will hear plea of Mr.. Connell for
arrest of judgment. He will also hear the
attorney as to the issuance OF super

that he considered that feature foreclosed.

case 1 shall be glad TO see 1t. Personally,

case as soon as possible"
Mr. Cornell disclaimed any idea of de-
laying a settlement, but said he wanted
time 20 argue the arrest of Judgment
motion and also the supersedeas prop
osition. County Attorney slabaugh also
said he was seeking an early decision and
that the court was fully advised of the
points involved

thought was clearly settled by decisions

Judge Sutton, while expressing an opinion
of the supersedeas proceeding Numerically
opposed 0 that of Mr.. Connell said that
he had never desired to hurry any case and
he would therefore continue the case until
Monday morning at 10 o'clock. Previous to
this tentative argument with the court Mr..
Council had presented a motion for new
trial, in which he made these principal
points,

The court erred in not allowing transfer

The court erred in overruling the motion
to quash the information, and also in allow
ing the petition to be amended against the
protest Of defendants attorney.

There were also presented some minor
legal objections that followed the same line
as presented above. in different language
Mr.. Connell promised he would be ready
to argue not only the motion in arrest Of
judgment Monday morning, but also the
matter OF issuing supersedeas, and Judge
Sabaugh indicated that at thut tine he
would be prepared 10 meet the PROPOSE
tions of the attorney for the defendants.
AS the councilmen filed out Of court
Messrs. Dyball and Huntington were heard
to remark that they wished the court had
seen it's way clear to decide the matter.
Mr.. Huntington put his,views In this way;
THE judge has his mind made up. ard
while Mr. Connell is undoubtedly acting as
any careful lawyer would, personally I
wish very much that the decision was
made and the suspense ended. A man
with business on his hands is not worth
much TO himself or anybody else with this

PRISONER CUTS HIS THROAT

Shooting at sOn-in- Law.
ONE CHANCE IN THOUSAND OF RECOVERY
Prisoners I'm Same Cell Give Alarm,

Joseph NADIA, alias Joseph Morano, who
was arrested on the 18th by Officer Stryker
for shooting at his daughters husband, ard
who is serving sentence for the offense, has
very likely settled the account for all time,
by his own hand. At 1l:10 last night, as
the five other prisoners in the cell were
sleeping MAZDA in some unknown manner
got hold of a jacknife and cut his throat.
The jugular arteries were not severed, but
the weapon entered his larnyx. He became
unconscious and strangled.
Police Surgeons Cox and Langdon were
intercepted on their way 10 lunch and
brought back to the jail as fast as the pa
troll could go. They did what they could
to stanch the blood and clear the mans
throat, and hurried him to the Clarkson
hospital The cash in his throat was fully
three inches long and was inflicted by an
ordinary pocketknife. 1t is thought the
knife was secured from some Of the work
gang which is serving time on the street.
or that II might have come In with a meal
sent by some of his friends.
The other men in the cell were George
Dempsey, Frank Hayden, Thomas Lewis,
Floyd Nielsen and Herbert Blaskmorc.
Dempsey, speaking for them, said that early
in the evening they saw MAZDA sitting near
the front of the cell He was moody and
never spoke. Later they all went TO lie
on the floor and Dempsey s5w MAZDA go and
lie down as If he were going to sleep. In
about half an hour he heard a gurgiing
noise, and reused up in time TO see MAZDA
hacking at his throat. He went to the man
and saw a pool of something on the floor,
and hastily called his companions, and they
shouted for the turnkey. The man was
brought out. leaving his trail in blood from
the cell TO the surgeons bench. There is
only a slight chance for his recovery.

Edward Mooney was sitting at the

from some unknown quarter, but he
was unable to make out the message,
which was given in a whisper.
Speak louder" said Mooney.
'I can't speak louder; there's a bur-
glar in the house and he'll hear me-"
replied the voice in a whisper.
Mooney asked Central where the call
came from, and when the "hello girl''
said 355 Clinton street the Butler street
station was called up and an officer
ordered Immediately to that address.
Detective Glennon hurried around and
rang the bell.
No. 355 Clinton street is a four-story

Detective Glennon climbed through
the front window and went upstairs
and rescued the two women prisoners.
Miss Haff discovered that the place had
been ransacked and sixty pieces of sill
verware, with valuable trinkets, had
been stolen. The burglar had gained
entrance by breaking a small window
in the kitchen door. Blood was on the
glass and the floor, showing that the
thiefs hand had been cut; on investi-
CATION bloodstains were found outside
the front door and along the sidewalk.
Glennon followed the trail as far as
Court street, where he met a waiter
who told of a stranger having left a
bundle in a restaurant and found that
the bundle contained the stolen silver
ware. The restaurant proprietor said
the man had cut hand. Glennon once
more took up the trail of blood, and it
finally led him to SO First place. AS he
started to ring the bell a young man
came out and demanded to know what
he wanted.
IT want you," said he, as he noticed
the hand was bandaged.
The prisoner said he was John Hayes,
80 years old, and lived at the First

CLOUDS IRRIGATE SAN DIEGO
Reports From South Show Fine Rains
for Early Season
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SAN DIEGO, Nov. 7.-San Diego has
during the past three days received the
heaviest irrigation from the clouds
that has ever happened at this season
OF the year. There have been few
years when the rainfall has been so
heavy at any one period.
The total precipitation for this storm
has surpassed all records for Novem-
Der and the month has but just start
ed. The precipitation for the storm has
been 245 and for the season to date of
3.20, which is almost as much as has
come to this section in a number of
dry years.
The rain has done little or no dam
age; some unbaled hay in the coun-
try was destroyed and in the city
there have been some washouts in
streets.
In the country the precipitation has
been fully as satisfactory for the rain
was heavy everywhere, and the most
of it has soaked into the ground and
done much good. Streams have never
before run so early in the year as this,
but some reports are that they are
running today. Snow fell at Julien
and Campo on Sunday and the weather
prognosticators there are predicting a
white winter. In the foothills and
valleys plowing and seeding will be be-
gun at once.
