6 IN THE HIGHER COURTS. Criminal* Beto c tbe Bar of tbe Blind faoddea*. Yesterday in Department 1, the case of Felipe Chavez, charged with the mur der of Charles Glass, was called for trial. The attorney for the State moved a con tinuance on the ground that a material witness could not be found. The State's Attorney filed an affidavit setting forth that when Glass was killed he was struck over the head several times with a large bottle which Chavez took from the hands of one John Hunter, that Hunter saw Chavez do tbe killing, but that he could not be found. Counsel for the defense insisted on proceeding with the trial, but the motion on the part of the people waa granted. The killing was done on the night between November 24th and 25th, at the Three-Mile house, near the city limits, on the San Fernando road. It is just before the road leading to Gassen's slaughter house is reached going from the city. It is not at Tropico, nor within three miles of Tropico. Tropico is a tem perance town and has no saloons in it, nor near it. The case ot John P. Goytino was called, and his attorney asked for a continuance on the ground that bis associate is not in the city. It waa allowed to go over to be reset. This is an old chestnut in the criminal calendar. Goytino is charged with forging the name of bis uncle, Miguel Leonis, who was killed in the San Fernando valley some months ago, while on his way to his ranch. He was ran over by a wagon. Leonis was a Basque, and came from the French side of the Pyrrenees, and not a Spaniard in any sense. information was filed in this court charging Encarnacion Alvitre with burg lary. The information alleges that Alvitre entered the store of the Sanchez Bros., at Los Nietos, with the intent of taking goods, chattels, merchandise, property, valuables of some sort there from. The act was done January 18th, not February. In Judge Van Dyke's court the case of W. H. Mills against the city, which in volves the title to the north half of Sec ond street west of Main, alone the Newell block, was decided in favor of the city. Mr. Mills is probably the only person in the city who will question the correct ness of the decision. In the same court the case of Alvarado against Nordholdt, of which the details have been published heretofore, was de cided in favor ot the defendant. It involves the title to the property lying along First street on the north side, be tweeu Main and Los Angeles. Judge Clark yesterday sustained the demurrer in the case of Shamrock against Shamrock. In the case William Sham rock snes his wife Delia for a divorce on the ground of desertion. She is not a resident of this State. She filed a cross complaint, to which nis attorneys de murred on the ground of non-residence. E. F. Bairo has secured a decree of divorce from Mary F. Bairo on the grounds of desertion. In Department 1 the case of Carl Browne,charged with extortion, came up. J. Marion Brooks,the attorney for the de fendant, came into court and withdrew from the case. Messrs. Appel & Stevens were appointed to defend tfio artist-editor. Browne's bondsmen also drew off his bonds, and he was given over to the custody of the officers of the law. It w»n not easy to learn why all this took place, as all the parties were inclined to be reticent. The new attorneys claimed that their client would give a new bond today. John Banse, a native of Germany, was admitted to citizanahip. Charlie Kirbis, also a native of Ger many, was also admitted to citizenship. Geo. H. Niemeyer, who was some time ago adjudged to pay $5,000 damages for breach of promise to Miss Hoffman, whom he was charged with seducing and then casting off, was brought up on a charge of not complying with the order of the court. Tne Court Commissioner will take testimony next Saturday. Niemeyer claims that he is not able to pay the damages. In the case of Pico against Cohn a de fault has been entered, because the de fendant had failed to amend his com plaint in time. The Vine Disease. The following letter from Knoxville Will prove of intereat to ail who are Studying the vine disease, which is doing bo much damage to California: Agricultural Experiment Station ] of the University of Tennessee, [ Knoxville, January 2, 18 ( J0. J Mr. R. Wheeler, Kingsburg, Fresno Co., Cal.: My Dear Sir—Replying to your kind favor of December 22d, I would say that the grape leaves you enclosed were not affected by either the downy or powdery mildews. I find a fungus on them, how ever, its dark-colored mycelium growing abundantly in the interior tissues. Just what it is I am unable to determine ;doubt its being a parasite, but rather some thing which is merely assisting in the death or destruction of the leaf. I send with this samples showing the peronospera viticola, and also the fungus of black rot. I did not Ree the peronospera in Cali fornia, when I was there during the early days of October, 1887, nor have I ever seen it on specimen leaves sent me from the State. When in California, I spent three days in Los Angeles, a week at Orange, an other week in and about Napa valley, San Francisco, etc. The vine disease, so fatal in the region south of Los Angeles, I saw at Napa valley, where it had been known for years, but had never been regarded as serious. I venture no explanation of the cause of this disease; Prof. Pierce may get at the cause, he is having a good op portunity to do so. To say that it is a bacterial disease, and to demon strate that it is, are two distinct propo sitions. The report on peach yellows can be had by addressing the Secretary of Agriculture, or Erwin F. Smith, Wash ington, D. C. I would be glad to receive from you samples showing any unusual or diseased appearance of the vine, and will be glad to hear from you at any time. Yours very truly, F. Lamson Sceibner. New Cases. The San Pedro Lumber Company sues Merick Reynolds and John A. Pirtle.

Crosby, the real estate agent charged with the rape of Daisy French and Annie Lindenfeldt, appeared before Justice Austin yesterday afternoon for arraignment. His counsel being engaged in other cases, the court, by request, set the hearing of testimony upon the ques tion of reducing the bail for 4 o'clock p. m., and subpoenas were issued by both prosecution and defense for Annie Lin denfeldt. At the appointed hour, how ever, the subpoenas were returned un served, the officers being unable to find her. Crosby was taken into court again, and Deputy District Attorney Phibbs informed the Justice of the unsuccessful efforts to produce Annie Lindenfeldt, adding that if the court would continue the hearing until 10 o'clock this morning he would assure the presence of the witness Daisy French, as she had already left San Francisco for this city in tbe custody of her father. The defendant's counsel briefly addressed the court, stating that he was satisfied from what he had learned of the facts of the case, that there was nothing in it, and informed the court that his client was unable to give any exorbitant amount of bail- After giving the matter due con sideration Justice Austin fixed the amount of bail at $1,200, $800 in the first case and $400 in the second, and ordered the defendant to appear for examination at 3 o'clock this afternoon. As Crosby was unable to procure sureties for the required amount of bonds, he was forced to spend another night behind the bars of the city jail. In the account of the case published in the Hera, v Sunday morning it was stated that the men and girls drove to the Arroyo Seco, where they spent sev eral hours. Henry Weidmann, who is conducting the Sycamore Grove in the Arroyo Seco, states that they were not at his place and that he has allowed nothing of a disreputable character to take place in the park siace he has had it in control.
