JURY IS UNABLE TO AGREE
Much Conflicting Testimony Intro
duced in Battery Case With
japanese as PRINCIPALS

The case of T. Suneda. charged with
battery, took up an entire day in Police
Austins court yesterday. Much con-
flicting evidence was introduced by the
Japanese, and after being out until
nearly II o'clock last night the jury
failed to disagree. Kenyu Sakai ap-
peared as prosecuting witness.
Attorney Allen for Suneda, the de-
fendant attempted to prove that his
client had been struck with a piece of
gas pipe in the hands of Sckai on the
night of May 2 at the home of H. e.
Murray, where Sakai had a room.
Prosecuting Attorney Beebe contended
that the opposite was true.
Both the Japanese were badly bruised
in the fight, so much so that they had
to have medical attention. Sakai was
treated at the receiving hospital
Both attorneys agreed that the
trouble was caused by Mrs. Suneda. 1t
was practically proved in the case that
she is infatuated with Sakai.
The case was put over until Monday,
when the date for a new trial will be

Ia The Herald.

Special to The Herald
PASADENA, June 21-It has come to
the knowledge of certain Pasadena peo-
pie with friends in the east who have
been contemplating a trip to the Pacific
coast this summer that the cheap rates
originally advertised for the National
Educational association convention at
San Francisco next month have never
been withdrawn.
In other words, people who are wise
to the fact are preparing to leave Chi
cago on or before July for San Fran
cisco and Los Angeles and return at
the exceedingly low rate of $64.50 for
the round trip.
When the meeting of the N. E. A.
was called off following the San Fran
cisco fire it was limited that the special
railroad rates for that meeting would
stand just the same, but nothing has
lately been said of it, and the impress
sion appears to be that the rate was
withdrawn.
Inquiries within the past two weeks
at railroad offices in Los Angeles
showed but one rate from Chicago this
summer, $75 rate beginning June 1.
Letters from the east Indicate that a
great many people are arranging to
come to California during the first week
in July because of the special N. e. A.
rate which eastern agents have offered
them.
