Court Justice Goff turned the laugh
on John F. Mcintyre, chief counsel
for Police Lieutenant Charles Beck
er, when the latter's trial was called
IN the special criminal term OF the

Mcintyre has been utilizing every

secured stay from Justice Bischoff
and when Becker appeared in court
today District Attorney Whitman told
Justice Cor of the existence of the
order.

under a misapprehension of the
facts" said the district attorney, "and

ings be put over for week SO that

Justice Bischoff.'
! Goff smiled sarcastically at Mcintyre
who had jumped to his feet to oppose
1 the motion and then said:
Il am constrained to deny this mo-
tion because, as the district attorney
knows, when I accepted the appoint
ment to preside over this special
term I told the governor that would
be compelled to he excused for the
last two weeks in this month as
was assigned to conduct special
term down town and could get no
justice to take my place. Therefore
all of the proceedings here must be
put over until the October term
Mcintyre looked dazed at learning
for the first time that he would have
secured a stay automatically, but made
no reply.

As result of the factional quarrel
which has split the Taft faction in
California wide open, the San Fran
cisco Call, leading republican paper,
today through an editorial urges all
republicans to vote for Woodrow Will
son in the November election. The
Call editorial declares:
II the election was held today
there Is no doubt that Wilson would
sweep the country and the chances of
defeating the democratic candidate in
November are not bright, to say the
least. But If republicans must look
forward with misgivings to the fight
with their old foemen they can at
last win even more desirable vic
tory by casting their votes every.
where where they will count against
Mr.. Roosevelt and so help decisiyely
to put an end to him politically"
The Call, which Is the mouthpiece
of the John D. Spreckles faction. is
fighting the proposal to put the re-
publican electors on the ballot by pc
tition. The Patrick Calhoun faction
whose mouthpiece Is the San Fran

can rebels are being rapidly driven
from the United States border to the
interior, according to advices receiv-
ed here today. That the end Of the
trigal dage and pillage along the in
ternational boundary is ended, at
least temporarily, is the opinion of
war department officials.
Mobilization Of the rebel forces un-
der Generals Campo and Orozco Is a
plan of the insurrectos, 1t is believed.
That the rebels plan 10 combine in
the interior and then march south
ward, ravaging railroads and other
property is cared. There are no
federal troops to check the southwark
march of the rebels. Their progress,
it is expected, will have little oppo-
sition for several hundred miles and
much damage will be wrought.
More than 5000 rebels will be COM
hined at the start, according to esti-
mates Of war department officials.
Recruits will be drawn from the in
terror, however, and a real fighting
force modified. which will cause a
guerilla warfare in the interior.

railroad, but little can be done except
