A STRICTLY NEW BIT OF EVIDENCE Witnesses Testify in the Miles Murder Trial. The Prosecution Produces Some New Evidence in the Case. ft Bloody iTnry Poker Chip and a Bunch of Key. T>|.covered by Chief of Police Glum -Slow Enmlu- tion of Witnesses. One ol the exhibits in the Miles mur- Jer trial yeeterday was a hammer. It is supposed to be the weapon that slugged George Miller into the sleep Of death in May, 1881. It was handled by counsel in an indifferent sort of way, and as much time has elapsed since the murder, that the blood stains alleged to have marred H have become faded. Never theless it excited considerable attention from the spectators. The defendant sat by Mr. Pritchard of Albuquerque, both silent and attentive, and Mr. Miles, who has an impediment in hearing, had his left hand to his ear in a listening attitude most of the time. The prosecution was characterized yesterday by deliberation and the exam ination of witnesses was prolonged. The first witness was (ieorge Gerkins who testified that he was employed in the Carlton saloon two montbß prior to Mr. Miller's murder. He had the morn ing and afternoon watch at the bar. On tbe day of the murder Gerkins saw Mr. Miller about 2 o'clock. He was in the saloon and was drinking. About 9 o'clock the witness was m the saloon and was reading a paper, when Mr. Miles asked him to get some change. He went to tbe Watatorium and got it. He did not hear of Miller's death -until 4 o'clock the next morning. TTpon further examination the witness said that the small room door behind the bat under the stairs was kept locked, and Mr. Miller usually kept the key. L quor and other stock waa kept there. He knew of no hatchet tbat was kept in the saloon, although there Was a small hammer, tt was something like a blacksmith's hammer, pointed at one end, A hammer, tbe one which wae found In the closet behind the bar was pro duced, and the witness did not recognize it. He testified that he thought the one belonging to the saloon was more point? Ed at tbe end. Mr. Miller wae showing a check in the afternoon, and money, and was drunk at the time. He was accustomed to sleep off his drunks in room No. 3, at the rear of the saloon. Anyone could See the lounge in the room when the oor was open. At the time the witness left tbe saloon at night, about 9:30 o'clock, only a few chairs were occupied on the side of tbe room. The cross-examination of the Witness was noticeable from the contradictions he presented to bis former preliminary examination. He acknowledged that' he said there were abont 60 people present when he left, and that there wae a new hatchet in the saloon at the time of the murder. He alio said that he saw Sir. Miller drinking with a strange man in tbe afternoon, whom he afterwards found to be Nelson. Sanford G. Morton, a police officer at the time of the murder, was sworn and testified that he was at tbe saloon the night of the mnrder. He was informed of it at midnight by Wooley, and in company with Officer Maguire, W. G. Miller and K. Langley Jones, reporters, went to the saloon. They found about 20 people in the saloon. The defendant was behind the bar at the far end, wiping off the counter. Tho witness stated that he motioned to Miles, and was followed by him to the room where Miller laid. The room was locked, and Wopley was sent back for the key. All went in, and found Miller lying on the lounge on his back. He was -dead. One band waß hanging down, and one of his legs was slightly drawn up. "What was the condition of the body?" asked Mr. Dnpuy. "It was still warm," said the witness. He further testified that he observed a hole in the back of the head, which looked as if made by an ice pick or hammer. He did not see tbe wound nntil he walked around the lounge. There was blood on the left side of the head and the neck. The door between rooms Nob. 3 and 4 was closed. Either he or Mr. Miles opened the door. He closed the door between the two rooms and went to the front part of the saloon. He turned The hammr, . everyone out of the saloon, locked tbe doors and leit Officer Maguire in charge. He searched the saloon afterwards, but found nothing. On cross-examination the witness said lie did not know anyone by the name of Nelson. He also said that some one whom he did not know was behind the bar with Miles when he entered tbe sa loon. W. W. Freeman testified that he was playing billiards in the saloon the night of tbe murder. Ha was washing his bands at the rear of the ealoon when Wooley went hack to call Miller. Wool ey knocked on the door and receiving no answer got a ladder. When the room was opened he bow Wooley shake Miller and say: "My God! Miller's dead. Miles uttered something, turned his face away from Freeman and others and went ont. A. D. Johnson, a police officer, was the pext witness and stated tftat he found a hammer behind the bar May 17th, the day after the murder. It hsd blood on tbe handle and tbe head. There was a cloth over the hammer and the handle •ppeared Wet. There were also dry Stains, which looked like blood, on the hammer. The witness also caw the wounds on the head of tbe murdered man. One of THE HERALD'S ROUND-TRIP COLUMBIAN FAIR TICKET. 'THE HERALD proposes to give a * first class round trip ticket to Chi cago to the moat popular person, man, woman or youth, in Southern California, the selection to be made by the public. The route selected is that of the South ern Pacific road, as outlined in the ac. companying cut. This will take the traveler over the Southern. Pacific line between this city and Ogflen, over the Union Pacific between Ogden and Coun cil Bluffs, and over tbe Chicago and Northwestern between Council Bluffs and Chicago. This line passes through a most picturesque portion of California, gives fast time, fine equipment, through sleeping and dining car service over a cool route, through a region noted for scenery. Altogether the comforts and advantages of this route are unexcelled by any other that could be selected. The conditions are very simple. To the person getting the highest nambee of votes tbe ticket will be presented frer of any charge. The votes must be made in coupons them was round and the otber wedge shaped, and they were about an inch and a half ap-irt. He saw the head of the hammer covered with gauze rubber fitted into one of the wounds. Chief of Police J. M. Glass wae called and testified to the fitting into thejvound of the hammer found behind tne bar of the Carlton saloon. He brought out something new in the case. He testi fied to the discovery behind tbe bar of a bunch of keyß and an ivory poker chip. They were in a money drawer behind the concave boxes, and both had stains of what he took to be blood on them. This evidence was in the nature of a sur prise, and created some sensation, be cause it was thought tbat tbe hammer was the only incriminating article found after the mnrder. He also stated tbat Dr. Kelly had analyzed some of the stains on the hammer, coming to the conclusion that it was human blood.. fTIJr. Elite was the last witness for the day. and testified that he bad examined Some of the alood stains, and while he thought they were human blood could not be positive abcnt it. Walter H. Auble of tbe detective force of the police department testified to his investigations in the Carlton sa loon. He corroborated Chief Glass in his Statements. Officer C. E. Wallin testified that be was in the saloon when the hammer was found, and his observation was much in the same line as tbe other witnesses. The trial will he resumed at 10 o'clock this morning. IN A BAD CONDITION. Main Street Between Seventh anU Ninth Badly Demoralized. A short time ago tbe street superin tendent was ordered by the council to properly repair Main street between Temple and Ninth streets. The work was begun and was fairly done from Temple block to Seventh street. On Main between Seventh and Eighth streets the various holes in the street were prepared for new asphalt, and that was all that was done. At the present time at- the location named the street is in a most disgrace ful condilion. 'The many portions of the street that needed repairs were dug ont ready for tbe asphalt, but that was the end. Work in this locality was suddenly stopped,making the street in a worse condition than ever before. No excuse has been given for such treatment to property holders on the streets named, and they are up in arms, and wieely and justly so. An inspection of the locality will fully substantiate this article, which is writ at the request of property owners on the street, who feel incensed in being dis criminated against lor various reasons best known to the street superintend ent.

"' ""^ I Name j i I Address REEDY AND THE DOG. A PULLMAN CAR POKTBR ACCUSED OF SMBKZZLING A CANINE. A Complicated Vase Before Justice Sea man's Yesterday—A Flea That Failed —Heedy to Be Sen tenced Saturday. 0. Reedy, a Pullman porter, has got ten himself in trouble. Justice Beamans yesterday found him guilty of embezzle ment. Reedy stole a dog, as tbe court believes. He wae bringing an empty car out from Kansas City.' One of the passengers bad a dig. He fixed up a deal with Reedy, so be swore, to have him (Reedy) carry tbe dog through in his empty car to Los Angeles, for which he was to receive $2 60. Somewhere in Kansas Reedy -told the passenger that his dog had been stolen or had gotten away. As tbe animal was a valuable one the passenger became very much wrought up at this, and notified Reedy that when he got to Los Angeles he would expect him to turn tbe dog over to him as he had agreed to. When the train got here Reedy of of course did not have the dog and then the angry owner had him arrested for embezzlement. Reedy took the stand and denied know log anything about the dog at all. He claimed that be had never agreed to keep the animal or any thing of the kind. It was shown on the coutrary by two passengers that he had taken him and agreed to deliver him in Los Angeles. Ths contention of the de fense was that if tbe dog was stolen he be was stolen in Kansas, and tbat the offense was therefore outside of the ju risdiction of the police courtof this city. Justice Bosnians held tbat Reedy swore to a lie when he said tbat be had not received tbe dog, and that as he had received him and agreed to deliver him in Los Angeles the embezzlement was committed when he failed to deliver tbe. animal as per contract. Reedy will come up Saturday for sentence. MINOR CASKS. Ah Hung will be tried today by Jus tice Seaman ou a charge of selling lot tery tickets. L. B.

WON AND LOST TWICE OVER. The Angels and Colonel Play Great Ball. The First Game of the Series Won by the Home Team. Both Pitchers Hit Bather Freely, but I.os Angola* Takes the Long Kud. Gossip About the Game and Player*. In spite of all anforseen complica tions ,»ud erroneous telegram*. th«re was a game of baseball yesterday afternoon at Athletic park between the Angels and the Colonels, and it was a rattling good game—from the local point of view. It was no pitchers' battle. Hits were frequent, the festive base on balls got in its deadly work and the agile, fielding error would bob np just in time to keop everybody guessing and stimulate the excitement. The Angeles did rather better with tbe stick than their opponents, but seven of the visiting swatters walked to first by reason of wildness, and one Athenian collided with an in-shoot for variety's sake. Two new men were on probation be fore the faus yesterday. Hutchinson, in left field, was not a stranger, as be covered the third bag for Oakland last year. But lluKhes, in that position for the Angels, is a new one, and is labled a phenom at that. He deserves it all, for he handles himself well in the field, and on the coaching line his voice indi cates that he would cut a wide swath even in the Epwortb league. But this is not telling how the game wes played. Both teams scored a run In the first inning. For tbe Angels, Rasty walked to first before Homer settled down to steady work. The next two men could only pop the ball straight up, but Hutch* inson made his debut before a local audi ence by knocking a double to right field, and Rasty scored. Unhappy Joseph McOucken also walked to first in Oakland's half, but was thrown out at third for trying to take two bases on Irwin'B single "to tha rigut garden. The latter took third on a poor throw to head him off at second, and scored when Karl was thrown out at the same bag. Lytle worked Homer for a walk in the second inning and stole second. An error by Irwin from Lohman's bat ad vanced Pop to third, and Nicol's doable soorsd the runner. Collopy erred on a hard hit bounder by Wright and Hu len's two-bagger to left netted the side three runs. In the third inning the locals made three more runs or. as many base bits, a little daring base running and a base on balls. The visitors made one in their half. Homer and McGuokeo both hit safely, and Irwin reached first on a force. Hom er scored while the latter was being run down between first ami second. Then tke score was tied by the Colonels in the filth. A base on balls to O'Neill, a short hit by Hernon aud a fumble by Lohman of a little tap by Cody filled the bases. Another base on balls to Homer forced in a run. McGucken hit safslv, scoring Hernon and Cody. Hines also hit safely and scored Homer, but Hutch inson by a beautiful throw caught Mc- Gucken at the plate. A hit by Earl scored Irwin, netting five runs for tbe inning. Again a lead of three was made by the Angelß in the seventh on four hits and a convenient error, and again the Oaklands tied the score by means of the deadly b. on b., aided by one hit and two errors. But tbe game was beautifully won in the ninth inning, and all by bard hit ting after two bands were out. Homer then let down a little, and allowed both Hulen and McCauley to find safe ones. He also bit Hutchinson on the arm and filled tho bases. Then with two-strikes on Glenalvin a straight ball was sent up the broad isle, and GHen swung at it for three bases, as many runs and the game.

Unity ohurch was crowded last even ing to bear and see Mr. Regan's illus trated lecture on ancient Rome. He introduced his lecture by a few remarks on the foundation of Rome —its tradi tion, history and romance. He traced its rise from the rude huts of the bar barian to its grandeur as the capital of the world. Mr. Ragan's lecture was very "Instruct ive and highly interesting. The illus trations showed the first Pagan temple, the first Christian church, the Coliseum, the Pantheon, the Vat ican, etc., being a complete histori cal picture of ancient and mediieval Rome, explained in a very entertaining manner by th» lecturer. The large audience was highly pleased with this-most entertaining lectnre. Mr. Ragan, will give an illustrated lecture next Monday evening on Alaska. Tn the Courts. John F.

The Campaign to Be Formally Opened Not Later Thau Next September and Then Fought to a Finish. The obtained information yesterday that a state division organiza tion has been effected in this city. The informant refused to give any names, but his high standing as one of the lead ing attorneys and financiers of Southern California makes his statement of fact unquestionable. The organizitiofi, it seems, was informal, being more in the nature of personal pledges to taks active steps ac soon as tbe summer vacation is over, aad all Southern California is again at home. The gentleman in question may be identified by some of his numerous friends as the one who wrote the joint resolution for state division introduced into the last legislature by the Hon. J. C. I.vnch of San Bernardino. It appears there was an informal meeting, som9 of the leading intellects of Los Angeles being present. There were lawyers, bankers, physicians and merchants enjoying a social chat. Ttie question of state division came up and it was fouffd that tbe as . nen was un animously in its favor. The question of action wa? brought up and tho temper oi the last legislature was discussed, also the possible advant ages of the capital-removal question as to state division. After an earnest and loqg discussion of all the points at issue ifcwa« resolved that in the fall, certainly not later than September, that a plan of campaign would he outlined and vigorous action commenced. To this end all present gave their personal pledges, and what began as a mere social gathering, ended as tbe first state division club of Southern California. When a call is made it will be such a general one that e/ery worker will respond-. Toe gentleman who furnished the in formation further Btated that if there had been proper organization the last legislature 'could have been easily in duced to have pa»aed a state division law. He has no donhts as to the possi bility of getting throngh the legisla ture of 1875, but fears that the hardest fight will be to get the consent of con gress. The Atlantic coast states do not want the senatorial power of the west increased. This will be the pitch of battle, and it must be continued ti!! won. It waa further suggested that to Loi An geles county would be conceded the cap ital of South California, and that in the apportionment of delegates the other southern counties should undoubtedly have the larger chare.

Editors Hkuald: I wish to correct a Statement that appears in your paper of this date, reputed to he tho report of the Democratic central committee, wherein I am quoted aa not beinir will ing to favor Democrats. On April 27th a party of three called on me, Btating tbey were an advisory committee ap pointed by tha said central committee to make certain propositions to me. They presented no credentials as being what tbey claimed, but after giving them the benefit of the doubt, I ex pressed my willingness to hearanything they had to say, of which this is the sum and substance: That the said committee wero about to submit the names of nine Democrats for appoint ment on the police force, And wished to know if I would pledge myself not to recommend, favor, or support any other applicants until these men were placed upon the force, I told them that I had not recommended any one as yet for ap« pointment but Democrats, and would not do so dntil at least the force was equally divided, but I thought there were othsr Democrats in the city that, were worthy of recognition beeides those comprising the city central committee, bnjt would be pleased to have them sub mit as many uamss at) they wished, either as a committee or as individuals, and all such names would be given care ful consideration by me, but that I had never pledged myself to any man or pet of men, and that I would not now ; that to accede to their wishes wonld be to sink my individuality as a member of the police commission and simply be come a dummy in their hands, and that if I were to do such a thing I shonld cer tainly expect that any self-respenting councilman of either party could reason ably demand my removal Doti the po lice as being unworthy of their respect and unfit to be a member of tbat body.
