POLI'S
"cuPIp AT vAssAR. !"

Cupid at vassar" Is the title of a musical play in four acts which ap- peared at Polls last night for the first time on any stage. It is from the pen of Owen Davis, with lyrics by George Totten Smith and music by A. Baldwin Stone. and staged by Jules Murry. who was never much of favorite in this city because of the shows that have come here under his management and which have been anything but high class. The star Of last evenings production was Miss Florence Gear who scored heavily with q fair sized audience present due no doubt to the liberal distribution of "eomps." But Miss Gear deserved all the plaudits she received as she was highly pleasing. Her first song. The Poppy and the Pink" made a hit right away as did her other rem ditions during the evening. She has a powerful voice which with her cap tivating manner makes her a very capable entertainer. But Ms Gear Is vastly superior to her company which is mediocre. Still the prodnc- ton for a first night went oT rather smoothly. As for the play Itself it Is a silly. foolish affair and some Of the situations are absurd. One of them is where Miss Gear aided by her col lege ehums capture a burglar who would only have to sneeze and he would send them all pell nell. The dozsn college lasstes for the most part were rather shy about sxertfng themselves. but with a little taking to they may get by all right The show wss presented this afternoon and will be repeated tonight

Attorney for Defense Visitor In
Salt Lake.

Fred Miller of Spokane and Boise one
of the attorneys for the defense in the
ywood-Moye -Pettibone cases, is in
Salt Lake on private business. Mr. Mil
Ter says that the defense in the case of
Haywood, whose trial is scheduled to be
gin May in Boise, is ready and has been
ready for months He does not anticipate
any further delay in beginning the hear
ing unless it is caused by the prosecu-
ton.
Discussing the proceedings against Yost,
charged with attempting to influence a
prospective juror. Mr.. Miller said:
I'VE are not at all alarmed over the
case. The facts are that Yost, who is in
our employ, did talk with Waggoner, who
has been summoned as a juror at the
May term of court His purpose was
merely to ascertain the sentiment in Wag-
goner's section of the county. At that
time he had no idea whatever that Wag-
goner was or would be a talesman. And
Waggcner himself did not know it until
two weeks later, when he was informed
by the court and admonished not to dis
cuss the case with anyone"
Mr.. Miller smilingly declined to give any
information relative to the line of de-
Tense in the Haywood case. I'VE are GO
ing TO do our fighting in court said
he. where that sort of fighting ought to
be don6.

DRUNKEN JUDGE
CREATES SCENE
hebbard of San Francisco Tries
to Have Heney ArrtSted
for Criminal Libel.

San Francisco, April 26.-Superior
Judge Hebbard of this city, vino was
denounced by Assistant District Attor-
ney Francis J. Honey last night IN an
address to the students at Stanford
university, appeared before Police
Judge Weller this morning and swore
to q complaint asking for Heney's ar
rest on the ground of criminal libel.
Heney is quoted as saying that Heb
bard had been repeatedly character
lied as a disgrace to the legal profess
sion.
Shortly before noon today Judge
Hebbard visited the district attor-
ney's office and demapded a warrant
torney Heney upon the charge of GRIM
inal libel. 1t was refused. District At
torney Langdon subsequently gave the
following account of Hebbard's visit:
Jurist Was Drunk.
Judge Hebbard came to my office
drunk He demanded the warrant /
told him that under the statutes he
was required to show that Heney was
in some way responsible for the publ
cation of the report of his speech
which quoted him as denouncing Judge
Hebbard as q 'henchman of Ruef;
that the mere delivery of the speech
might constitute the offense IF SLAM
der, but to constitute criminal libel,
the responsibility, even remote, of He
ney for the publication must be shown.
/ told him that / would gladly issue the
warrant if he could make such Il show
ing, for we would be glad to get to the
bat with him on the merit of the al
legged statement.
This seemed to greatly infuriate
Judge Hebbard. He created els
graceful scene. abusing the warrant
clerk and myself in ugly language.
Finally ] ordered him out of the Of
fee l have given instruction to have
Judge Hebbard arrested if he reap
pears at the district attorneys office
and tries to make another scene"

NINE JURORS IN THE BOX
Five of Them Subject to Challenge
San Francisco Graft Case
Drags Along.

San Francisco. April 26.-Nore progress
was made today in the getting of jury
to try Abraham Ruef on the charge of
extortion than on any previous day since
that seemingly endless task was under
taken. When the usual over-Sunday adj
journment, was ordered the number of
jurors in the box had increased from five
to nine, a tentative gain of four for
the day. Five of these. however, may
be dismissed by the exercise Of peremp-
tory challenges, two of which remain
with the prosecution and five with the
defense. The other four jurors have been
finally passed and sworn.
The venire of seventy-five talesmen
summoned into court this morning for
the completion of the trial panel was
quickly reduced in number to 10 by ex-
cuses and absences. OF the former there
were forty-nine, of the latter thirteen.
Seven talesmen were examined during the
day. -Four of these withstood the quail
fication tests and took their seats as pro-
stationary jurors; the other three disquali-
fled themselves and were excused
1t is thought likely that still another
venire will have to be issued by Judge
Dunno before the Jury can be completed.

COMPLAINT FROM LIMOGES
Porcelain Said to Have Been Refused
Admission to United States at
Port of New York.

Paris, April 2s.-Foreign Minister
Pichon today received the delegation
representing the Limoges porcelain in
dustry. who protested against the ac-
ton of the United States custom au-
thorities in refusing admission to con-
signments of Limoges porcelain owing
to reports that the goods were wrongly
invoiced. The minister forwarded in
structions to Ambassador Jusserand to
lay the affair before the Washington
government.
Washington. April 26-The trea sury
department knows of no refusal to re-
ceive invoices of Limoges porcelain.
The apprsising officers at New York
raised the value of certain china i'm
portations from France. The import
ers appealed to the board of general ap-
praisers, and the cases are now under
consideration. The department is ex-
pediting settlement of this matter. 1t
is possible that some importers are not
now making entries of French chino
ware pending the determination of the
question of value.

Clerks Error May Force Pay
ment of WaSatch & J0r-

New York, April 26.-An error of law
clerk many years ago may mean for
tune to Russell Sage Raphael and his
mother and sisters.

was defaulted and the first mortgage was
foreclosed, cutting out the holders of the
second mortgage securities Nathan
Raphael spent large part of his for
tune trying to recover from the railway.
but was unsuccessful Worry caused his
death.
Judgment Not Satisfied.
a short time ago Russell Sage Rapha 81.
a son of Nathan Raphael, began suit n
the federal court on the bonds and Sc
cured a judgment for 81 $50, 76S including
interest. This judgment has been re-
turned by the sheriff as unsatisfied and
was today filed in court
While working up this case Mr.. Raph-
aeTs lawyers discovered that when the
first mortgage was foreclosed the holders
of the second mortgage, probably by a
clerks error, were not made parties to
the suit This, IT is claimed, invalidetes
the foreclosure proceedings.
The old railroad property, which now
belongs to the Denver e. Rio GraDde
and the Rio Grande Western, is said to
be worth about s30c1o,0o0. The second
mortgage bonds issued by the original
road amounted to $500, 600. 1t is not known
