Mary had been the first to realize that
Blacks friends, not Langfords had
Joined In the struggle. She snatched
her revolver from her cowboy belt
she had not been without either since
the Lazy was burned-and cried out
her challenge. Glancing quickly from
the cleaning barrel to the determined
face OK the young girl, the men let go
their hold of Langford and fell back
precipitately.
Instantly Langford sprang forward
but Black had made good use of his
moment of grace. Swinging his arms
to the right and left. he had beaten his
way to the window, when Langford
again seized him, but he he'd the ad-
vantage this time and he tore himself
loose. throwing Langford violently
against the window-casing. With his
bare, clinched fist he shivered the
glass and leaped out-into the arms
of Jim Munson.
The officers made gallant plunges
through the sampeded crowd in their
low the fugitive. But certain men
managed to keep themselves clumsily,
but with marvellous adroitness, never
theless, between the deputies and the
doors and windows, SO that several
moments elapsed before the outside
was finally gained
Meanwhile Jim struggled heroically
with the outlaw. Black was far su-
perior to him in weight and strength
of limb, but Jim was quick and tough
and daring. Expelled from the court
room, he had been watching through
the window. He had seen Mary's
quick action and his boss's splendid
attack. He had also seen the little
gun play" and his eyes glo'ved in ad-
m.ration of "Willistons little girl"
though his generous heart ached for
love OF the woman who was not for
him. He saw Black coming. He was
ready for him. He grappled with
him at once. If the boss or the officers
would only come now
When they did come they found Jim
stretched at length on the frozen
ground. He sat up slowly.

1t was true. The little street
stretched before them still-deserted.
Early twilight was coming on. The
biting cold struck them broadside.
The deputies scattered in vain Dur

Paul left the room, and Gordon
paced the narrow confines of his shah
by of1ice-back and forth-many
times. Then he threw himself once
more into his chair. The hours were
long. He had all night to think about

sTIMS0N FOR SENATOR
is LEAGUE PROGRAM
Thirty-seventh District Is TO Ask Him
to Oppose Choice Of Regulars
Before the Prl-
"a marles

Marshall Stimson for senator Is the
wish of the Acknowledgement clubs
of the Thirty-seventh senatorial dis
trict. This action has been taken at a
meeting at the league headquarters and
will be submitted to the county execu-
tive committee of the league at It's
next meeting at the Westminster no.
tel next Thursday. t
There will be no question about the
approval of the executive committee,
but the thing needed Is the approval
of Mr.. Stimson. He is out of the city
and knew nothing of the action taken,
1t is said, and his wishes, so far, have
not been consulted.
Stimson, IL he Is a candidate, will
have fight from the choice of the
regulars to succeed Henry w. Carter,
the present senator, who has moved
from the district.
The Lincoln Roosevelt executive
committee is to approve all candida
cies, and so far has approved only
that of Supervisor George Alexander
for reelection. Each of the assembly
and senatorial and supervisorial dis
tricts has been asked to choose can
dtdates and before long the league ex-
poets to have a full set in the field for
all the offices. The success of these
tickets will depend on the election OF
Lincoln Roosevelt delegates at the
August primaries and for this success
the league is holding daily meetings
of different districts

ACCUSES RAILROADS
OF FRAUDULENT DEAL
CONSPIRACY TO DEPREcIATE
PROPERTY CHARGED
Complaint Alleges That Real Estate
Wao Sold for one-Tenth OF Its
Value with Intent to InIure
Stockholders

A suit was filed In the superior court
yesterday by John Cross against the
Vallejo. Benicia & Napa Valley Rail
road company and the directors Of the
San Francisco, Vallejo & Napa Valley
Railroad company, in which 1t is al
legged the plaintiff was made the victim
of a fraudulent railroad selling trans
action.
In an alleged DEAL said to have been
brought about by persons who were
directors of both companies, Cross de-
clares the directors of the first named
corporation sold a portion of its prop
erty near Napa for $4,000, when Its
real value was 100000. This. he de-
clares. was done with the intention of
defrauding the stockholders of the VAL
lejo, Benicia & Napa Valley road.
The complaint further alleges that a
conspiracy was formed to bear" the
stock of the selling company, with the
intent to ruin the market value of the
property.
Both the directors of the two COM
panies and the corporations themselves
are made defendants in the suit.
According to the complaint, In ae-'
cordance with the plan to depreciate
the value of the property of the selling
corporation, superintendent. who re-
ceived a yearly salary of $1,000, was re-
placed by a friend of one of the direce-
ors at a salary of $4,000 a year. 1t Is
declared that this new superintendent
was paid by one company and used by
both.
