COURT ADMITS
Showing HEAT
Judge Coffey Answers Affidavit
Attacking Him for Ruling
in Tilton Case

Inc attack made upon Judge Coffey
In affidavits by Ida A ,Killey, who was
removed by the judge as guardian of
Chloe f. Tilton, and by Joseph Slye
and Charles kits, attorneys for Mrs.
killey, was characterized as "imperti-
nent and unwarranted and interpolated
solely for the purpose of making an
uncalled for and futile attack upon
the character of the Judge" in an
affidavit fled yesterday by Attorney I.
|. Brown, attorney for Louis Hammer
smith, who is now the guardian.
Mrs. Tilton, who owns an estate
worth about $4,000, was confined in
Napa asylum six years. Judge Coffey
! became convinced after an exhaustive
hearing that she was sane, directed
that she be liberated and removed Mrs.
killey. On motion for new trial. Mrs.
hiiley and her attorneys claimed that
falr trial was not accorded them,
and that the Judge displayed heat and
passion in the trial, and spoke in a
hectoring fashion.
These assertions are denied by Judge
Coffey in an affidavit filed yesterday
together with that of Brown, except
that the judge admits that he did
manifest some heat when he noticed
Attorney Slye directing Mrs. Killey
what answers to give to questions. At
this time both attorneys were on their
feet shouting charges, and Judge
Coffey says he showed some heat
and intensity of manner when he or
deredo both attorneys to take their
seats
Judge Coffey states in his affidavit
that on several occasions he spoke to
Attorney Slye in firm manner, but not
In manner calculated to give offense.
Slye himself, the judge asserts, re-
piled to one of the courts remarks in
q snappish manner, utterly unwar-
ranted because of anything that had
been said, "Well, it appears that 1
can not make any statement" Judge
Coffey pointed out that his remark
to Slye that if he engaged in a dis
cussion with the court "the court may
not get the worst of it," was a pleas
antry, and we'll understood as such by
every one in court. Affidavits by Louis
Hammersmith and others were also
filed yesterday.

dunno OBJECTS TO
REPRIEVE FOR LEE
Judge Suggests That Vicious
Influences Have Reached the
Acting Governor

superior Judge Frank H Dunno ran
foul of Acting Governor Warren r.
Porter in connection with the case of
parently vicious influences had reached
Porter in connecting with the case of
Benjamin B. Lee, who more than a
year ago was convicted of manslaughter
and sentenced to ten years imprison-
ment in San Quentin. The appellate
court affirmed the verdict and judg-
ment and the supreme court refused a
|rehearing, but Porter has granted Lee
a reprieve for thirty days pending the
nearing of an application for pardon.
The acting governors action keeps
the convicted man from San Quentin
for the time being, but Judge Dunno
ordered him to the county Jail, al
though he had been admitted to bail
IN the sum of $4,000.
When Judge Dunno read the acting
governors reprieve he said that he
doubted Porter's right to take such
action
JUDGE RESENTS RETRIEVE
Speaking to Assistant District At
torney Maxwell McNutt. who was ap-
pointed after the case was tried. Judge
Dunno said:
For your enlightenment, Mr.. Nc
mutt, l will state that this proceed
ing is one of a long series of
vicious interferences with. the ad
mlnlstration of justice in this case.
From the time the case was first
brought to the attention of this
court vicious influences have been
at work to defeat Justice. 1t would
seem as though the same vicious
influences have been able to reach
the acting governor. Warren r.
Porter. 1t is to be regretted that

matter of great regret, and / want
to be heard in protest against such
action.
The lieutenant governors reprieve
was obtained May 19 by Attorneys w.
H. II. Hart and Joseph A. Brown. The
latter is in the office of former Judge
Carroll Cook. who is one of Lees at

eye with an umbrella point
John Williams, representing the
sheriff, said last night that there was
some difference of opinion as to the
validity of the acting governors action
and that the sheriff. preferring to take
no chances. had rearrested Lee.
The question of whether Lee is en-
titled to be at liberty while the COVER
nor is considering his application for
pardon will be thrashed out before the
court of appeal this morning, the de-
