MUST TURN OVER MONEY
AngIo-CaIifornian Ordered t.
Give $4,000 to Receiver

The Anglo Californian bank was or
dered by Judge Coff.ey yesterday to
turn over to the receiver of the Cal
ifornia safe deposit and trust company
$4,000 deposited with the former in
stitution by the latter before the smash.
The decision was given In proceedings
instituted by Receiver LIE Breton. The
application was resisted by the Anglo
Californian bank on the ground that
there are adverse claims against the
$4,000, Stewart & Mckee claiming
$4,000 of 1t and the Western Pacific
railroad company claiming the other
$4,000 Attorney Raymond. represent
ing the Anglo Californian bank, urged
that the receiver be instructed to bring
suit for the money, so that title to 1t
might be determined by appropriate
proceedings.
It was shown, however. that the
money was deposited with the Anglo
Californian bank while the latter was
acting as clearing house for the Cal
ifornia safe deposit and trust company,
and the judge remarked that the fact
that there were other claimants to the
money did not affect the matter at all.

Honors in Experiments by

success. The test was witnessed by
the three members of the artificial
lights committee Of the supervisors and
several others of the board, and when
the supervisors convene next Monday
10 discuss the choice OF a system of
lighting 70 be made universal through
out the city they viii be able to base
their choice on personal observation,
as well as statistics and figures.
The two methods demonstrated were
arc and incandescent lighting
The poles for the lights were set 90
feet apart Six fncandescent 80 candle
power globes were placed 16 feet from
the ground on each pole. and one arc
light, carrying candle power equal to
the aggregate power OF the smaller
lights, was set seven feet above on
lights were the new Tungsten high eff.
fciency carbon filament, with frosted
globes. At the conclusion of the dem
onstration II was generally agreed that
the fncandescent system gave a
brighter light and was more orna-
mental, but figures showed it was more
expensive than the arc light system

BANKER BROWN TO
FACE TRIAL FIRST
EmbezzIement of Sacramento
Bonds, To Which He Pleaded
Not Guilty, Is Charge
Prosecutor Will Let Bartnett
Wait Until Managers Case
Is Ended

The first of the California safe de-
posit and trust company officials to be
tried for embezzlement will be j. Dali
zel Brown, who was manager of the
institution, according to Assistant DIS
trict Attorney Hoff Cook in Judge
Dunne's court yesterday, who stated
that the charge upon which Brown
would be tried was that alleging en-
bezzlement of the bonds of the Sac
ramento electric. gas and railway COM
pany. This was the last indictment
returned against Brown, to which
Brown pleaded not guilty.
Previously 1T Lad been understood
that Bartnett would be the first of the
defendants to be tried. Prosecutor
Cook stated that his reason for chang
ing the originally determined order was
that the trial of Brown on the charge
of embezzling bonds of the Sacramento
electric, gas and railway company
would take less time than the trial OF
any of the other charges. All the cases
are now at ISSUE the preliminary tech
Rical objections having been brushed
away, and Cook is able to take them
up in what order he chooses
To the joint indictment against
Brown. Bartnett and Treadwel, a plea
of not guilty was entered yesterday All
the cases went over to Saturday to be
set. The trial of Brown will begin next
week If the Crothers and Older libel
case is ended.

rade, which held short meeting TO set
tie some mooted questions In connec-
tion with the procession.
From the Preside and nearby army

LOOK AT BOOKS REFUSED
Receiver Says He Has Been
Overwhelmed With Requests

The application of the Depositors'
collection society for permission to ex-
anime the books OF the California
safe deposit and trust company was
denied by Judge Coffey yesterday with
out prejudice, the judge stating 1t was
within the province of the receiver to
permit or deny the examination of the
books. just as he might choose. The
collection society has assignment of
depositors' claims agregating about
s250,0OO, and according to It's attorney,
c. c. Boynton, wishes to ascertain the
names of stock holders, to bring suits
against them.
Edward ]. lie Breton, receiver of the
bank, informed the court that he had
been overwhelmed with applications to
look at the books, and he had found
that some Of those to whom he had
given permission had taken undue ad-
vantage Of the permission to dig into
matters absolutely foreign to their
avowed purpose. The bank was also,
he said, exposed to the danger of the
theft of small books and papers.

DIR. PIERcEs REMEDIES

There is no way OF making Idstino

drunkards.
A good, honest, Square-deal medicine of
known composition is DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t still enjoys an inn
mense sale, while most of the prepara-
lions that have come into prominence in
the earlier period of its popularity have
gone by the board and are never more
heard OF. There must be some reason for
TINS long time popularity and that is to
be found in its superior merits. When
once given a fair trial for weak stomach,
or Tor liver and blood affections. its supe-
rlor curative qualities are soon manifest;
hence it has survived and grown in pop
uiar favor, while scores of less meritorious
articles have suddenly flashed into favor
for a brief period and then been as soon
forgotten.
For torpid liver with its attendant
Indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, per-
haps dizziness, foul breath. nasty coated

with distress after eating, nervousness
and debility, nothing is so good as Or.

grip OF a predatory corporation: 20
with the Taft managers. They know
exactly what is going on among Sail-

even interested in the efforts or the
Herrin machinists to undermine the

deny on undisputable authority the re-
ports published in California some time
ago that the Taft nomination campalg gh
f,1 California had been intrusted by the
president TO Francis J. Heney, Senator
Flint and Congressman Mchinlay. Both
Flint and McKinlRy are loud shouters
for Taft and the president trusts he
ney, but neither they nor any one else
has been nor is likely to be commls-
stoned TO direct the Taft fight in Cali
fornia. It IS not considered necessary
TO have any such management.

that there has ever been any attempt

that Governor Gillett did not try TO dis-
credit the league with the president
I know that he did not do so with the
Taft managers. know also that even
IL he had tried he would not have sue
ceeded.
1T is perfectly understood here that
the Chronicles latest falsehoods are

check the league and it is con5ectured
that the schemers have in mind the
still more remote possibility Of anger

I'm sorry about this ln-Roosevelt

when we had things nearly fixed up SO
that those Of US who are friendly to-

There is valuable information for
California in this remark. The Taft
managers were extremely well pleased
with the news that the San Francisco
county committee had declared FOL
Taft and they noted also the vote by
which the anti-Herrin resolution was
adopted This was one of the strong
est signs of the growing power of the
