THE PORTLAND SPECIAL EXPRESS.
It is Not Allowed to Do Local Busi
ness.
Henceforth Even the Trainmen Are
:Nol to Know Where It
Will Stop.
The San Francisco Bulletin of last
evening stales that there is uu present
prospect of a settlement of the Port
land rate war between the railroad and
the steamship lines. The train which
left that city last night for the north
carried eight sleeping coaches, and they
Wi re all tilled.
The principal trouble with the rail
road people now is that they cannot
keep local passengers off the sU.
i.'i amount of this
trouble cob i ourse, from a failure
to understand that the train is only in
tended to cany through passengers, but
also who buy
through tickets as being cheaper than
tickets to local points, and take the
chance ol: the train . where
near the joint to which they want to go.
The real fact of the matter is that no
bedy but the Division Superintendent
knows where the train will stop for coal
and water—and it does not stop to
chant ;hat is done outside
the tow men themselves not
knowing when tin-;, are to be relieved
until ! • their places.
The rpose of the train is to
carry through . and the train
men is to t
through tares from all passengers on
the train. In'order that nobody may be
in ignorance of the facts, the Southern
Pacific has caused to be printed and cir
culat- of circulars, of which
the following is a copy, and has posted
the same notice on its stations and
ferry-boats:
"The San Francisco and Portland ex
cursion train is run for the exclusi*
commi of S.ui Francisco and
Pi rtlaiu: ■■ uuffic.
"This train does not stop at interme
diate stations for the purpose of leav
ing or taking on passengers, inasmuch
as no tickets are sold nor baggage
checked for such points.
"Such necessary stops as this train
may have to make for water, fuel, etc.,
are irregular and unknown to the Traf
fic Department; consequently we feel
oblige the traveling public due
warning not to board this train for the
purpose of taJ : c thereon for
any intermediate stations, for if they do
they run the risk of being carried by the
station which they may desire to reach.
"Condtif •; ucted to de
mand and collect the San Francisco and
y instance
frcm i may be found on this
train who !.] the special pas
sage tick-ip. which are solely for this
train only."

connected.

warm applause.

SACRAMENTO DAILY RECORD-UNION, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1895.
THE OPPENHEIM ESTATE TROUBLE.
Effort to Set Aside the Decree of
Distribution.
Philip Oppenheini and His Sister
Make Answer to the Latest Com
plaint of Their Brother.
The case of Louisa A. Oppenheim
against Philip and Emanuel Oppenheim
and Mrs. California Thompson was be
fore Judge Prewett of Placer in De
partment Two of the Superior Court
yesterday. The issue before the court
was a motion to set aside the decree of
distribution made in the matter of the
estate of R. Oppenheim, deceased.
The defendants were re-presented in
court by Attorney T. Z. Blakeman of
San Francisco, and the plaintiff and
cross-complainant, Emanuel Oppen
heim, by Albert M. Johnson, C. T. Jones
and Devlin & Devlin.
11l the hearing of the matters at issue
the depositions of Dr. W. R. Cluness
j and C. W. Clarke have been introduced
!in evidence. Various motions were ar
i gued, and finally the case was contin
; ued till Thursday.
Defendants Philip Oppenheim and his
Bister, Mrs. Thompson, have tiled their
| answer to the second amended crOßS
complaint of their brother Emanuel, set
ting forth a general and specilic denial
to all of the averments made therein.
The answer also sets forth that in Sep
tember, lSiil, at the request of Emanuel
Oppenheim and the written direction of
his mother (.the plaintiff), defendant
Philip Oppenheim lent to his brother
I out of the trust estate the sum of $2,000,
i taking his promissory note therefor to
run four years with interest at the rate
of '•> per cent, per annum; that as se
curity therefor Emanuel Oppenheim de
livered to the defendant, as trustee, a
| mortgage on his interest in the real es
| tate as embraced in the deed of trust,
i and that on said note only one semi
; annual payment of interest was made.
Defendant Philip Oppenheim further
alleges that in accordance with the
written agreement of all the parties to
the action he delivered in January. L 894,
tv his brother Emanuel property of the
estate valued at $11,817 05 as an ad
vance on account of his interest in the
estate. In said written agreement it
was agreed by Emanuel Oppenheim
that there should be charged to his
distributive share of the estate the
sum above mentioned. -SI 1 .si 7 *'<7>. This
sum, in addition to th<; :>2.imJo pre
viously advanced, interest, etc., makes
the total amount paid to Emanuel Op
penheim nearly §1(5,000.
Philip Oppenheim further alleges that
in September, 1893, with the written
agreement and consent of all the par
ties concerned, there was paid out of the
trust estate $1*550 each to his brother
Emanuel, his sister, Mrs. California
Thompson, and to himself, also the sum
of $1,100 for a monument to be erected
on their father's grave.
Defendant Philip Oppenheim also al
leges in his answer that his brother
Emanuel had persuaded their mother
to give him or pay out for his account
the greater portion of the income of
the trust property of the estate, and
that he (Emanuel) had also induced his
mother to go security for his debts,
with the intent of procuring more than
his share of the property.
It is also set forth that defendants
Philip Oppenheim and Mrs. California
Thompson believe that because their
brother Emanuel had received all of
the property to which they would con
sent he induced their mother to bring
this action. They pray the court to de
termine what sum Emanuel has re
r ■ Ived from the estate and that it be
charged against him as an advance
ment on account of his portion.

all steam beers. The extraordinary de
mand for the product of Captain Ruh-
Btaller'a brewery continues to increase.
This is so because of the merits of Gilt
Edge, which is an honest beer made
from malt and hops. The reputation
of this favorite beverage has extended
throughout the State, and wherever it
has come into competition the popular
verdict is in its favor. The special holi
day brew is in the nature of a treat to
the public, which has been so generous
in its appreciation of the efforts of Cap
tain Ruhstaller to give the people the
very best beer that experience and
careful personal attention can procure.
