OAKLAND. Dec 8.-The trial of S.
Aninos. charged by his employer. c.
Papas. with battery. was interrupted
in the police court this morning by the
arrest in the courtroom of three ac-

charged with battery, and Tom Aninos,
charged by Papas with assault with a
deadly weapon. The Aninos men are
brothers.
The four prisoners were all employees
of Papas. They quarreled with their
boss over wages, and gave him a beat
ing. Tom Aninos, it is alleged, struck
the boss with a monkey wrench.
While the proceedings were on,
Court officer John Murray saw three
men taking an unusual interest in the
case. He noted that two resembled the
prisoner. and he grabbed them ALL TAX

brief investigation proved that they
were the three fugitives.
Papas himself has run afouI of the
law since charging his employees. He
is now on bail in a San Francisco court

lenses.

blow in Superior Judge Wells court

her handwriting was not similar TO
that in the threatening letter received
by Judge f. B. Ogden just prior to the
dynamiting of his home more than two
years ago.
The similarity of the writing on the
board and that of the same name on
the envelope of the threatening letter
was so marked that when Carl Eisen-
schimel, handwriting expert. called
attention to it the jurymen burst into
loud laughter
Mrs. Martin spent the entire session
endeavoring to prove that the hand
writing expert was in error. Eisen-
schimel showed his evaporation at her
method of examination in the tone and
wording of every answer. Fully
aroused when she told him that he
knew nothing about handwriting, he
shouted:
We'll, you know nothing about it.
All you know about is dynamite.
