JUDGE CABANISS DISCUSSES
Street CAR ETIQUETTE.
POINTSOUT CHANGES In THE CODE
Officially Announces That 1t Is Not Good Form to
Threaten to Carve Ones Fellow Passengers
BY JAMES C. CRAWFORD.

But the complainant and his wife
and another lady testified that
the language addressed by both Rob-
ert and Albert to Mr.. Sterling was
frightful to hear; moreover, that Mr..
Sterling did not display shotgun or
any other weapon, but simply called
to his aid Patrolnan GregSains. VINO
arrested the profane pair on the spot.
His Honor sentenced the Issons to
forever shun the block Of Fulton
street on which the Sterlings reside.
Then 1t was ascertained that the
cause of the interfamily contention
was the divorcipg of sister of the
Issons by Mr.. Sterling and dispute
over the division of alleged community
property that has never been settled.
When the case of Lawrence Bechtel.
accused of having wantonly shot and
killed Frank Riordan on April 20, was
resumed before Judge Shortall the
prosecution called to the stand L. H.
Bottomly, letter carrier who testi-
fed that he conversed with the de-
ceased ten minutes prior TO the shoot
ing, and that the deceased at that
time was perfectly sober.
The object of presenting Mr.. Bot
tomly's testimony was to refute the
statement of several comrades of the
defendant to the effect that Riordan
was drunk and quarrelsome and was
advancing threateningly upon Bech-
tel when the latter fired at him in
self-defense.
An examination Of Riordan's re-
mains, exhumed for the purpose, sat-
isf1eed Autopsy Surgeon Kucich that
only one bullet was fired, and that

from the right shoulder.

FURNITURE FIRM IN
NEW HOME.
Sterling Company Is First
to Occupy New Perma-
nent Building in Burned
District.
TO EXTEND NEW STORE

To the Sterling Furniture Company
goes the honor of being the first of its
kind to occupy permanent home in
the burned district. The Sterling peo-
pie have moved into their fve-story
building at s74 Howard street. near
Sixth. In addition to this and to show
the firms appreciation and anticipa-
tion of the volume of business il will
do in reconstructed San Francisco, the
Sterling Furniture Company is laying
the foundations OF a like building next
to the new one it now occupies. The
two buildings will be connected and
will form the largest furniture store
on the Pacific Coast.
After the fire which destroyed the
Sterling Furniture Company's home on
April Is, the firm continued to do busi-
ness in the city. making its headquar-
ters at the warehouse at Sixth and
King streets, which they occupied as
salesrooms and offices The building
will now be again utilized as a ware
house for the firms shipments of fur
niture.
The new building into which the
company moves will be used solely as
a retail store. 1t is five stories high
and has a large. commedious base
ment under the sidewalk and the main
noor. 1t is built OF steel, concrete and
brick and is strictly modern. The
building has a ffty-foot frontage and
extends back l69 feet into the lot.
These dimensions will be doubly in
creased when the adjoining building is
completed. 1t is estimated that the
complete floor area will be 216,000
square feet.
The Sterling Company began busi-
ness ten years ago at 1883 Market
street, gradually increasing the size of
the store until an entire building and
annex were occupied.
The officers OF the Sterling Furniture
Company are: President r. p. Cole;
secretary, treasurer and manager. C.
NJ. Cole; vice president. John Cole,
Their father, N. p. Cole, was a pioneer
furniture dealer of San Francisco, and
was the founder of the California Fur
niture Company. which was in its time
the most prominent furniture house on
the coast.

RICH ORE DISCOVERED IN CANANEA DULUTH
 MINES
FRANK PROCTOR, OF cANANEA. INSURED OF FORTUNE IN CA
 NANEA AND DULUTH.

Recent developments in the Cana nea and Duluth mines at Cananea nave been such as to insure the own CTS fortunes which they had hardly dreamed of. The property is owned
 by Frank Proctor, the father-in-law and partner of w. c. Greene in the cattle business. This property was denounced by Mir. Proctor several years ago, on the advice of one of the Cananea mining superintendents, who had been impressed with the surface
 indications of the ground.
 A company was incorporated of
 which sufficient stock was sold to
 carry on developn. nt work. Soon af-
 ter this work wss started results be-
 gan to attract a,Lention and 1t was
 not long until Mi Proctor received
 flattering offer in cash This was re fused and now he can congratulate himself that the offer was not suffi-
 ciently large to attract his acceptance. A gentleman who arrived from Ca nanea yesterday says that ore bodies have recently been encounterd and opened up in the Cananea and Duluth property which will make Proctor a millionaire. The ore is said to be equal to any ever found in the Cana nea district and it is in sufficient quantities to justify large reduction works.
 Frank Proctor is one of the pioneers of Arizona and has hundreds of friends all over the territory who will rejoice at his good fortune. He is now in California recuperating from the effects of a paralytic stroke which he received about the beginning of the present year. For months the life of Proctor was in the greatest ! danger and he was kept under the
 doctors at Hot Springs, Arkansas, for 1 five months

THE COURTS ARE TO BE CALLED ONTO STOP DAMAGE TO

SAFFORD. July For the past ten years the people of this valley have known that their lands were gradually being ruined by the tailings being dumped into the river by the mining companies Realizing this fact, different people have gone to these companies for the purpose of inducing them, without law suits, to stop running the tailings into the river. The companies have promised to do ali they could to stop it and in fact have made some effort in this di- rection, but enough is still running into the river to absolutely ruin the val ley in ten years more. And with the tailih gs of the new concentrators flowing into the river, it would prob ably take not more than five years more to comDe, the farmers 10 aban. don their farms.
 iE order to put a stop to this de- structiou of the valley. several canal companies have banded together and have employed Attorneys Armstrong and Lewis. two prominent lawyers of Phoenix. to bring suit. enjoining the companies from dumping tailings into the river in the future. and also to recover damages already done.
