MATTER CAME UP IN DISTRICT
COURT YESTERDAY - WILL
PLEAD SATURDAY.

w. F. Ford, charged with en-
bezzlement by the Nye county grand
jury, made a motion in the district

ment against him be set aside as he
was extradited from California on
another indictment.
When the grand jury first return
ed true bill against Ford it was
placed in the hands of Sheriff Owens,
who had Ford arrested in Berkeley
The latter attempted to secure his re-
lease on writ of habeas corpus, and
during the fight, the grand jury here
returned a second indictment, which
was more complete and was for the
purpose of surrounding any legal
errors the first may have contained.
However, the extradition papers were
granted on the first Indictment and
Ford was brought to this city.
The court last evening, after hear
ing the arguments of counsel, made
an order setting aside the second in
dictment and ordered Ford held on
the first one. He will be arraigned
to plead next Saturday afternoon.

club was perfected last night at
gathering of prominent race horse

The meeting was enthusiastic and
considerable was accomplished to-
ward a permanent combination OF

man.
The fact that there was no appro-
priation made by the last legislature
for the holding of 1909 state fair
under the auspices of the Nevada

POSES AS HEAD OF
EDUCATION BOARD
Man of All Work Passes Spu=
ri0us Checks in Name of
Alameda. Capitalist

ALAMEDA, Dec. Passing himself
off as d. J.. Randolph, capitalist and
president of the board of education,
Frank Williams, man of all work,
succeeded in swindlfng several local
merchants out of small sums by
means of spurious checks. Randolph
was in the east on business for several
weeks and during that time Williams,
who was formerly in the employ of
the president of the board of educa-
ton, impersonated his one time en-
ployer and also posed as Randolph S
brother.
At the store of Bergman & Cham
pion at Bay station Williams repre-
sented himself as Randolph's brother
and said that he had been sent to pay
a bill for his relative Williams ten
dered a check for s22.75 and the same
was accepted and receipt given
therefor. Later Williams returned to
the store and wanted to borrow So,
saying that his brother, d. l.. Randolph,
would make it albright" He did not
secure the cash. II. S. Grammar, a
butcher, was a victim of Williams, ac-
cepting a spurious check for $5 from
the laborer.
John Alton, a grocer, accepted from
Williams check for So drawn
on the Alameda national bank and
when he discovered that the paper
was worthless he swore to a complaint
charging Williams with obtaining
money under false pretenses. 1t is on
this charge that the police are seeking
to arrest Williams, who is Ga years
of age.

WIFE TURNED INTO
HUMAN PINCUSHI0N
Carpenter Sits on Spouse's
Chest and Lectures Her on
Sin of Extravaganza

OAKLAND, Dec. 2.-Converting her
into a pincushion was one of the cruel
things that Jared F. Jencks did TO his
wife Blanche, according to the testi-
mony she gave in the course of the
trial of her divorce suit. She was
granted an interlocutory decree today.
She said that her husbands niggard-
Illness was at the bottom of long
series of cruel acts, of which he was
guilty, and which she enumerated.
Jencks had the habit of working for
about three months at a time a
carpenter, boarding every cent he made,
and allowing her little or nothing for
her support, she said. Then for the
next three or four months he refused
to work at all, spending as little as
possible of the money he had earned,
and thus putting off the day when he
would have to resume labor When
she begged him for money for neces-
saries, she was answered by abuse,
physical as well as verbal. Once, when
she took $40 and used it for necessaries.
he held her down and stuck pins into
her arms to punish her. On another
occasion he sat on her chest and lee
tured her on the sin of extravaganza.
The beginning of the married life of
the Jencks was rosy and romantic. The
pair eloped and were married in San
Rafael when the bride was only Is
years old.

and that the residents would have no

REVENUE OFFICE WILL
REMAIN IN OAKLAND
Treasury Department Decides
to Retain Station

OAKLAND, Dec. 2.-The secretary
of the treasury has ordered that the in
ternaI revenue Office of this city, which
it was thought would be removed to
San Francisco on account of the lack
of room in its former headquarters, the
postoffice building. is to remain in
Oakland Quarters have been secured
in the Tribune building, corner of
Eighth and Franklin streets, and as
soon as they can be fitted UP the in
ternal revenue officials will move into
them.
Ever since it was established here,
the office, which represents the third
division of the first internal revenue
district of California, has been located
on the second floor of the postofice
building. A short time ago Postmaster
Schafer decided that he would be
obliged to utilize the space occupied by
the office for postal purposes, and ac-
cordingly he recommended that the
postmaster general order its removal.
At first it seemed likely that the
treasury department would remove the
office to San Francisco, but leading
businessmen of this city petitioned the
government to keep the office here. and
it was retained. The receipts of the
office now reach 100000 year and all
the liquor and tobacco dealers of Ala
media, Contra Costa, Mono and Inyo
counties pay their internal revenue
taxes in this city.
Collector S. +. Rutter, who is in
charge of the local office. is now en-
gagged in gathering data for the col
lection of new corporation tax. which
was adopted by the last congress.
