JUDGE UPHOLDS JUSTICE
Burke Contempt Proceedings Are
Resumed

Resumed
When Judge cited Judge it was gen.
orally expected something would fall.
but yesterday Judge York in the su-
perior court upheld the order of Justice
Pierce in the township court in the Ed
mund Burke contempt proceedings,
and the writ of prohibition resorted to
by the defendant was overruled.
Burke sought the prohibitive writ in
an effort to restrain Justice Pierce
from fining him for contempt of court.
He was recently cited to appear be-
fore Justice Pierce in supplementary
proceedings in satisfaction of judg-
ment for $142.
In these proceedings Burke ac-
knowledged he had $4,000 on deposit in
bank in Washington, D. c. He said
he was willing to pay the judgment
but asked for time until he could get
the money from Washington.
The court allowed him ten days, but
at the end of ten days the money failed
to materialize and he was granted
another respite of several days.
Justice Pierce finally issued cita.
tion against Burke to show cause why
he should not be punished for contempt
of court.
Burke employed an attorney to take
case to the higher court.
In his decision Judge York says the
justice acted enormously in his effort
to compel the judgment debtor to pay
the amount into court.
Burke is in Los Angeles and is de-
termined to contest the case to the
end.

Minister Testlfies

Rev. George A. Hough, who gained
local fame here recently by his testi-
mony as a handwriting expert in the
Butler Reavis school teacher trouble
and who married Ingram to wife No.
l." was the first witness called by the
prosecution.
After having testified to the first
matrimonial venture of Ingram, who
recently confessed to the crime of
marrying a woman, but not to the
crime of bigamy," he was excused, and
the backbone of the prosecution was
produced when Mrs. Katherine w.
Goodwin-Ingram, known in the case
as wife No. q, took the stand.
Noticeably mild and i'll at ease, the
former head of the house in which
strange man conducted four bit
matrimonial bureau, told of her honey
moon trip with the man of many wives.
She prefaced her story by informing
the court of Migrants first move in the
game of hearts, at which time he is
said to have visited the dealer in wives,
who advertised old and young maidens
of the wealthy class at the merely
nominal sum of four bits.
Had Barrel of Money
She asserted that Ingram told her
that he had barrel of money and was
we'll able to look after her interests
for the rest of her natural life.
Mrs. Ingram No. 2 testified that In
gram urged her to journey to the south
for the wedding festivities saying that
a marrige here would incur the anger
of his friends. He insisted on show
ing his wife the sights in the little
Mexican frontier town of Tia Juana.
The Mexican law prohibited a mar
riage under less than six months resi-
dence, and back to San Diego the
ego that Rev. w. D. Crabtree of the
Christian church performed the cere-
mony that has caused all the woe in
the Goodwin-Ingram family
Mrs. Ingram was unable to relate
the gist of Ingram's impromptu re-
marks in the San Diego parsonage.
On cross examination Migrants at
torney attempted to show that Mrs
win-Ingram had entered into the
copartnership of love without her
daughters consent
"I don't see why the machine should
be reversed. and the mother required to
get the consent of her daughter" re-
marked Judge Smith, and with this the
witness was excused
Charles O. Goodwin, superintendent
of the Broadway Christian church
Sunday school. and a nephew by mar
riage of Mrs. Ingram "the second"
proved himself to be an important wit
ness for the prosecution.
According to his testimony Ingram
called him up over the telephone on
November IS last and rebuked him for
meddling in his domestic affairs.
1t appears that the conversation
grew from a cold and uncordial intro
duction to heated argument, during
which time angry words passed over
the wire.
you are a dirty rascal" are the
words which greeted Ingram when he
entered Goodwin's office. and an invi-
tation to leave followed.
Goodwin testified that Ingram ad-
mltted he had committed felony in
marrying Goodwin's aunt.
Ingrams attorney moved to dismiss
his client. and after brief argument,
the motion was denied

4, strength of the Russian position and
speaks favorably of the spirit and con-
dition of his latest reinforcements and
the morale of the entire army.
Reinforcements for the front are re-
ported as steadily arriving. The Thir-
teenth Corps is now en- route and the
War Ministry is preparing to dispatch
a composite corps in case negotiations
for peace fail. Only regular troops are
now being forwarded, and it is reported
that the city of Moscow grenadiers
have received marching orders.
A competent military attache of
Euoprean power, who is acquainted
thoroughly with the defensive facili-
ties of Nladivostok, says that the Jap
anese will find that fortress a harder
nut TO crack than Port Arthur, if they
decide TO break off negotiations. This
authority declares that the Japanese
fleet will not be able TO cooperate with
the attacking army except in the way
of an inffective bombardment of the
sea front, as the mine fields and heavy
artillery make IL out of the question
for big ships to run by the fortress and
get into touch with the besiegers on
the mainland
This attache noticed during a trip
through Russia, from which he has just.

ST. PETERSBURG. Aug. 25.-With

ceived here, saying Mr.. de Witte was
waiting Instructions, the Foreign Of
fee says it is daily in constant COM
municatiOn with Mr.. de White and that
he viii be fully able TO go ahead on

The latest developments clearly indi-
cate that the press dispatches declar-
ing Russia would never consent to the
payment of indemnity in any form rep
resent Russias Iast word with refer

The authoritative statement made at
Portsmouth was reiterated last even

said that, under no circumstances and

ciple Of indemnity be admitted, and this
decision is accepted by the Russian
public as final.

japanese Would Make Russia Pay
Heavily to Keep Her Quiescent.

PORTSMOUTH, n. H., Aug. 24.-Ac-
cording TO a Japanese informant, Baron
Keniura and Mr.. Takahira are op-
posed TO the waving of the demand
for war expenditures. This authority
said:
In the conference the Japanese contention
was that, in conceding the apte-beilum de-
mands OF Japan, Russia admitted either thar
che was beaten or that her attitude prior to
The war YVES unjustihed and in either case
Japan holds that Russia should pay the cost
OF the war. Japan ieels tnat Russia talk or
saving her face is hardly reasonable, cllr-
ing that her face was lost when she CONCEDED
the ante-bellum Demands which constituted
the real casus belli.
Advices received by the japanese
mission from home say that Japanese
public opinion is not only bitterly op-
posed TO further concessions, but fav-
ors even harsher terms than those
originally presented The japanese
people feel-and their feelings, it is
said, will be respected by the Govern
ment-that to weaken now would mean
that Japan must reopen the war in
decade.
Better fight it now, while we have
an army in the field" they say. than
make a truce for ten years or more
and then reopen hostilities'

SIX or the Chickasaw warrants issued in
October, 1901 and aggregating S550e, were
paid directly to j. b. Burton. This was seven

$1,000, were subsequently made out in favor of

FEVER PLAGUE
UNDER con troll
City of New Orleans at
Last Declared to Have
Conquered the Scourge

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 24.-The follow
ing is the yellow fever record up to 6
o o'clock this evening: New cases, a; total
to date, 1900: deaths, z; total, 226; new
foci, 10; total, 800; remaining under treat
ment, 2S7
With the fever here practically under
control and the danger of a general epi-
demic eliminated the Federal authorities
are anxious to put restrictions against
free intercourse between New Orleans
and infected communities in Louisiana
and elsewhere The necessity for some
such action arises especially from the
conduct of the Italians and other foreign
races. Many of them fed from New Or
leans to the surrounding parishes when
the fever first grew violent here. They
established nests of infection at various
points. Since then many have been drift
ing back to New Orleans, setting in new
nelghborhoods and increasing the foci
here.
To-Gay's report was encouraging. The
death list is somewhat larger than that
of yesterday, but it did not reach the
maximum set earlier in the month.
The territory bound by st. Anne Es-
planade. Rampant and Decatur, the heart
of the original Infection, is again under
going a thorough course of disinfection.
