NO WAY TO APPEAL
TO HIGHER COURTS
Attorney Raises Peculiar Point
in Asking for Delay in
Murder Trial
Old Laws Repealed and the New
Statutes Not Yet in
Effect

California is n the peculiar situation
OF being without any laws providing
for appeals in criminal cases to the
appellate and supreme courts from the
superior courts. according To Carroll
Cook the former judge. The point was
raised by Cook in Judge Cabaniss
court yesterday morning in connection
with the case of Peter Palassou.
charged with the murder of his wife.
The case was ready for trial, but Cook
had it put over to May 25, by which
time way out of the fmpasse may
have been discovered.
ALLEGED LEGAL MIDDLE
The legislature at its recent session
adopted a number of amendments to
the penal code providing new machin-
cry for use in appeals. at the same time
repeating the old clauses replaced by
the new ones. But while the new laws
do not go into effect until so days after
the afixing of the governors signature,
the old laws were repealed immedi-
ately Thus a hiatus has been oc-
casioned, il is coptended. and at the
present time there is no machinery
in existence for the taking OF appeals.
CONsT71UTIoNAL RIGHT
Judge Cabaniss pointed out that the
constitution entitled convicted persons
TO the privilege of appeal, and that the
neglect of the legislature to enact the
proper machinery could not deprive
defendant of that privilege. The SUI
preme court could lay down rules gov
erning appeals, said the judge.
Cook agreed that this was So and
81 he int RI q
appellate and supreme courts to adopt
as their rules the repealed sections of
the penal code. those rules to remain
in force until the expiration of so days
from the governors signature OF the
new laws. Cook said that in any case
except a murder case he would be
willing to go ahead with the trial.

MAKE PLEAS FOR
CLEANER STREETS
Speakers Address the W0man's
Public Health Association on
Needed improvements
Rehabilitation of Sewers of City
Declared to Be an Impera-
tive Necessity

Streets and sewers were discussed
by the speakers who addressed the
Womens public Health association
yesterday morning. Supervisor George
Center telling something of the diff
culties that confront the committee
ON streets, OF which he is chairman.
while DR. r. G. Brodrick spoke on the
need of Improvement and reha bilita-
ton OF the sewers of the city.
The matter of keeping the streets
clean is dificuit one here on account
of the dust arising from the building
operations, said Center. and this will
probably be a problem for several
years.
AS for sidewalks. the speaker said
that it was practically impossible un-
der the laws of the present charter to
enforce the ordinance compelling the
laying of proper sidewalks, and no
satisfaction can be gained.
The sewer question. he said, was
due 10 the removal of many citizens
to new and unimproved part of the
city, and also to the breakdown of the
Spring Valley water company and their
failure to put down a sufficient num-
Der of pipes.
Doctor Brodrick told OF the terrible
conditions of the Baker street, the d.
vision street and the Islais creek sew
ers.
One of the crying needs of the city
is the abolition of cesspools. and in or
der to do this sewer connections must
be established Through arbitrary
interpreta ton of the law, according to
both Supervisor Center and Doctor
Brodrick, the board of public works
has declared that this may not be done
by the owners of the property them
selves and, as in the cases of those
refugees who have bought small
homes, the expense of having this
done is more than they can afford.
Doctor Brodrick believes that this
should be taken in hand by the chari-
table organizat ations OF the city and the
moneS advanced when necessary.

Reports from eastern cities state that
Cooper gave public demonstrations IN
which he agreed to make deaf people
hear again in three minutes with one
or his prepare tions, and 1t is claimed
he was successful in many cases.
When asked about these seeming
miracles Tuesday Cooper said: In
cases where deafness has been pro-
duced by catarrhal trouble l have
preparation that will bring relief IN q
few moments time. But only in cases
of this character. In the East have
given public demonstrations with my
medicine that were really astonishing,
but the reports of what / accomplished
became greatly exaggerated, ana II

ing of any deaf person in a few mo-
means and these false reports caused
many people great disappointment For
instance, one man came all the way
from Omaha to New York when | was
there last year, who had been stone
deaf from birth, and he was almost
broken hearted when / refused to even
try to help him. Such an experience as
this makes me very cautious, as II is
a terrible thing to witness the despair
of an individual such as this man, VINO
had been led to believe there was hope
for him
