GENTILITY OF NO AVAIL
James Marshall Found Guilty of
Burglary
HE TOOK THE WHOLE B AKERY
Testimony Today in the City's Suit to
Condemn
H. Ingalls Declares Himself a "Oentlemin"
While Throwing Away a Chisel -A
Hisvy Damage Suit
James Marshall, tho gentlemanly burg
lar of irreproachable appearance, but more
than doubtful morals,is going "to do time,"
to use the vernactdar of his class. It took
the jury just twenty minutes yesterday to
arrive at the conclusion that the young
fellow with the flowing obon locks, the glib
tongue and the dramatic manner, ought to
go into retreat for silent meditation and
accordingly a verdict of burglary in the
second degree was returned.
When Marshall resumed his seat on the
witness stand yesterday morning Mr. Davis
proceeded with the re-direct examination
and elicited much interesting information
regarding a mythical Mr. Allen, whom lie
met once and has not Bines seen. The
defendant claims that Allen invited him
in his room to confer on business, and told
him if he did not happen to be in to sit
down and make himself at home. Having
esconced himself in what he theught was
Alien's room he proceeded to comply with
Allen's second request that he make him
self at home by looting the place of its val
uables. But while confessing to having
taken the jewelry from Mrs. Rowan's
rooms, Marshall has been earnest in his
contention that be did not enter the bouse
with any intent to commit burglary, but
having entered under the belief that the
rooms were those occupied by Mr. Allen,
he was overcome by temptation and ap
propriated the two watchos and the chain
as accused.
When Mr. Davis had concluded bis ex
amination the district attorney proceeded
to put a few very pertinent questions to
Marshall anent his having been sent to v
reformatory institution iv Colorado.
"Do you remember tho judge that sen
tenced you in Colorado. inquired Major
Donntui.
"No, sir, I do not just now," hesitatingly
answered the defendant.
"Was it Judge Rising?"
"No, sir."
"Did you have counsel?"
"Yes, sir, but I don't remember."
"Waß it J. N. Stephens?"
"No. sir."
Defendant finally owned up to having
been defended by Mr. Caypless of the firm
of Caypless & Fisher.
"You say you woro sentenced to the re
formatory.*" resumed the district attor- i
ney.
"No, sir," corrected the defendant, "I
was not—to the penitentiary, but there was
a recommendation of tlie jury, or some
thing, that 1 be sent to the reformatory.
That institution was full and I was kept at
the penitentiary until a vacancy occurred
at the reformatory."
"Did you ring the bell at 828 South
Hope street?"
"No sir; the door was open. Allen had
told mo his rooms were the front ones up
stairs."
"How long wore you waiting there before
taking the watches?"
"About seven or eight minutes."
That was all, but as Marshall stepped
down from the witness stand he faced the
jury and said:
"Gentlemen, what I have said on the
stand is the truth, whether it is for or
against me."
As the verdict showed later the jury
failed to appreciate the remark.
Mrs. Rogers, now living on Wall street,
but at the time of the burglary at 311)4
Boyd street, testified that while Marshall
did not live there he visited the house fre
quently. A man came to tbe house ped
dling flea powder and had a conversation
with Marshall, a portion of which she
heard. The conversation related to Allen
taking the agency for a hair tonic manu
factured by Marshall, and Allen—that was
the man's name—asked tbe defendant to
call upon him.
In response to the question of the dis
trict attorney witness said she had had a
few moments conversation with Marshall
before court convened, but not about what
she was to testify to.
"Are you a relativo of the defendant?"
next inquired the district attorney.
"No, sir," was the answer somewhat re
luctantly given.
"Are you not his mother-in-law?"
"Not now."
"Ah, you were?"
"Yes, sir; four years ago."
"Did you ever live in Denver?"
"I lived there in 1801."
"Did you not then knnw him as George
Hurley?"
"Y'eo, Bir," the witness slowly made on
wer."
"Did you over know him as Marshall?"
"Never until here in Los Angeles."
"As a matter of fact, don't you know his
real name to be Marshall, and haven't you
known that for eiiglit years?"
The question was objected to, and also
the one that followed, as to why witness
was not still the mother-in-law of the de
fendant, it developed, however, that after
Marshall waß convicted of burglary in Col
orado his wife obtained a divorce from him
and has since married a man in Portland,
Ore.
Tbe district attorney attempted to offer
in evidence the record of the defendant's
conviction in Colorado over the objections
of opposing counsel, but owing to the doc
ument lacking proper certification the
offer was withdrawn.
Mr. Davis opened the argument in behalf
of his client and grew eloquent as he at
tempted to persuade the jury that his
client was innocent of burglary. Coun
cil, indeed, had some hesitancy about
conceding that he was guilty even of grand
larceny, for he referred to kleptomania
being recognized in medical jurisprudence
as a veritable fact. At the very worst he
pictured his client as one trying to live
down the one blot on his character and
honestly striving to make tin honest liveli
hood when confronted by the jewelry that
tempted him from the patli of rectitude.
Major Donnell, in his closing argument,
summed the case up brieily but effectively,
and the jury retired at a quarter to 12.
Five minutes after the noon hour a verdict
of guilty, as already stated, was returned.
The time for sentence was continued.
ANOTHER GENTLEMAN
Who Carried a Chisel As ths Insignia ot His
Gentility
A rather complicated charge of burglary,
placed against H. Ingalls, was investigat
ed yesterday afternoon in the township
court. While there was no difference
among the witnesses as to a burglary hav
ing been committed, they wore not unani
mous in identifying the defendant as the
man who actually committed tho crime.
On the night of the Masonic celebration,
February 23d, three young fellows, named
Fullmer, Williams and Chase, while pass
ing the grocery store on Temple street al
most adjoining the Clifton house, saw
I lirough tbe window a man get up from be
hind the counter and go into the inside
l oom. As the man acted suspiciously, an
officer was called, and upon his arrival
he told the boys to go around to the back
of the premises. Fullmer did so just in
time to meet the defendant coming down
the Clifton house lawn. Ho spoke to him
• hen Ingalls told him there were robbers
in the grocery store, and he was going to
get an officer. Fullmer volunteered to ac
company him but Ingalls look to bis heels
and very nearly gave his companion the
Blip. In the attempt to climb a fence,
however, he fell, and before he could arise
Fullmer was upon him, literally, too, for
he kept him down on the ground by sitting
upon him until an officer arrived and In
galls was arrestod. The latter indignantly
repudiated the idea that he was a common
burglar, and said he was "a gentleman,"
that inasmuch as he wa3 detected in the
act of throwing away a chisel duf allow
ance had to be made in considering the
allog «tions made by one who carried such
an ungentlemanlylike weapon.
Rather curiously, Fullmer could not ab
solutely identify Ingalls as the man he saw
through the store window, but the combi
nation of circumstances will probably
prove too great to bo overthrown.
The examination will be resumed this
morning.

HE TOOK THE BAKERY
The Ownership of a Down-Tow.i Restaurant
In Dispute
The affairs of Stephen Page, an insolv
ent, were gone into at length in department
two yesterday, before Judge Clark. The
matter came up in the suit of Gregory Per
kins, jr., assignee of the Page estate, vs.
Charles Gassen.
At one time Page owncl tho Geneva res
taurant, ou Second street, between Spring
and Main streets, and also a bakery at
Boyle Heights, both businesses being val
ued at $11000. It is claimed that wben he
found himself getting into the deep
waters of financial distress, i'age
transferred both Ilia businesses to
Charles Gassen, in March, 1804, with
the intent, it is claimed, of defrauding
his creditors. Be that as it may, Page
filed his petition in insolvency the follow
ing month, and now the assignee of his
estate seeks to recover from Gassen $2000,
with accruing interest, $500 for attorney's
fees, $50 for expenses and $20 to recoup
him for two days' time.
Gassen, who is defendant in the suit,
claims, on the other hand, that both of
Page's businesses were only of the value of
$1413. He had a claim of $525.02 against
Page, and when the latter got into trouble
he paid $000 in cash and released bis
claim, and in that way got legitimate pos
session of tbe restaurant and bakery. It is
further contended by Gassen that he pur
chased Page's interest ou the express un
derstanding that the claims of P. M. Moro
ney, the Southern California National bank
and the Farmers' and Merchants' bank,
claims which he himself knew existed,
should be liquidated.
The case was argued and submitted.
JOHN BROWN TO MARCH ON
An Unworthy Bearer of the Name Found
Guilty ol Burglary
The trial of Brown, charged with having
burglarized a store at Garvanza, did not
occupy Judge Smith and a jury very long
yesterday. It was a rather haphazard
chance that the defendant was arrested,
but once in the grip of the law officers the
rest was comparatively easy. A youth saw
Brown carrying a tied-up handkerchief ap
parently containing some weighty articles
in the direction of the Los Angeles river,
and telephoned to the police station for an
officer. Detectives Hawley and Auble
took up tho trail and captured Brown while
sitting on a log close to the river bed, mi
nus his burden. A little later a man who
had seen Brown bury the plunder in the
bed of the river, close to where he was cap
tured, directed the officers, and three
dozen pocket knives and several pairs of
shoes were dug up. These were identified
by Mr. Jones, who keeps a general mer
chandise store at Garvanza, as having
been taken when his premises wero burg
larized.
Each link in the chain of evidence was
forged neatly by the law officers yester
day, the jury returning a verdict of burg
lary in the lirst degree without any delay.
THE HIDDEN WATERS
Testimony In tbe City's Condemnation Suit to
Begin Today
The suit of the City of Los Angeles vs.
Pomeroy et al. continued its legal course,
which appears as devious as the windings
of the rivers whose wat«ra are in dispute,
before Judge Shaw yesterday.
The plaintiff having rested on the pre
liminary issues as to the necessity for tak
ing the property, the merit of the proposed
plans, and the right of the plaintiff to the
waters of the Los Angeles river. 'he de
fense concluded its examination on the
same issues.
This morning testimony will be adduced
in the case before the following jury, em
paneled yesterday to try the cause:
George F. Dutton, B. D. Wklker, H. N.
Rust. C. L. Northern!t, ,T. W. Eyeston, C.
A. Clark, William F. Miller, George R.
Shipway, N. H. Hosmer. W. T. Clapp, E.
F. Fellows and W. J. Keller.
PENSIONERS HAPPY
They Throng the Ofllce for Execution ol tha
Pension Vouchers
Yesterday was pensioners' day at the
court house, and the office where ordinarily
marriage licenses are dealt out with liberal
hand—at $2 per license—was thronged by
old soldiers and some widows of veterans
seeking certification of their pension vouch
ers.
During the day there waa taken in $85.25
and as two bits Is charged for executing
each voucher, the total number passed
upon was 341. The lowest voucher was
made out for $6 and the highest for $72,
but there were very few of the latter. An
approximate average would be about $12,
or $3ti per annum, Tn which case tbe vouch
ers presented yesterday would aggregate
about $4092.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Regular Meeting of tbe Board of Di-
rectors Yesterday
The Resolutions Denouncing the Funding
Bill Again Come Up and Fall of Being
Adopted—Appeal Taken
The regular meeting of the board of di
rectors of the chamber of commerce took
place yesterday afternoon at I! :15 oclock,
with tho following gentlemen present:
Messrs. ISanning, Davisson, Duque, For
man, Ford, Francis. Groff, Jacoby, Klokke,

took place, and C. 1). Willard was eltoed
secretary and Frank Wiggins was elected
superintendent of exhibit.
The resolution relative to the funding
bill came up for the third time for con
sideration. At the meeting of February
19th some resolutions denouncing tho
funding bill as lUble to work injury to the
commercial interests of this coast were
offered by Director Patton, he stating that
similar resolutions had been passed by
commercial bodies in other sections of the
state. Afier Borne discussion the matter
was referred to the committee on law and
legislation. Dr. Groff, chairman. At the
meeting of February 'Jiiih this committee
reported and offered as a substitute the
following resolutions, which it asked shou d
be passed by the board:
Resolved, That the chamber of commerce
is earnest! yoppos ■<! to passage of tlie bill
now before congress to refund the indebt
edness of the Central Pacific railroad com
pany to the I'nited Sta'es and advocates
the immediate foreclosure of the mortgage
held by the government to secure such in
debtedness.
Resolved further. That this chamber
urges the representative bodies of other
communities to take such stops as to them
may seem best to assist in defeating this
funding scheme so prejudicial to the com
mercial interests of California and unjust
to the people of the United States.
Resolved further, That a copy of this
resolution under the seal of the chamber,
be forthwith forwarded to the senators and
representatives of this state in congress.
This resolution, after a short discussion,
was laid over for one week in order to en
able members of tho board to discuss the
matter with members of the chamber, and
to inform themselves more fully on the
topic. At the meeting yesterday afternoon
the matter came up for the third time for
consideration, and a long and vigorous
discussion took place, in which nearly all
the members present participated.
Colonel A. B. Uotchkiss asked to appear
before tho board as a member of tho cham
ber to state his views, and an audience was
given him. At the ond of the discussion an
aye and no vote was taken, and the result
was five ayes for the resolution and nine
noes against it, and tho resolution thus
failed of passage.
Notice was immediately given that an
appeal would be taken to the members of
the chamber on the r»« ,, l'< • •

RIVAL OF LOS ANGELES
Sacramento,in tbe North, Wants
that Convention Badly
SENTIMENT IS ONE WAY
This Cily Will Probably Secure the
Prize
Governor Budd Would Like to See the
Catherine Came South and Max
Popper Also Favors It
Los Angeles will secure the coming
Democratic state convention. The gover
nor favors this as the city for the gathering
of the clans, and Max l'opper, who is now
here, believes similarly.
L?aders*like W. W. Foote and W. H.
English are enlisted under the Los Angeles
banner, and tiio delegations from all of the
southern counties upon the state com
mittee will one week from today, at the
Cilifornia hotel, San Francisco, cast their
several ballots for the southern metropolis.
The only real rival for the big gathering at
present is Sacramento.
H. U. McAvoy, one of tlie members of
the state committee from San Francisco
county, is for this city in the following
letter:
At tho present writing I am in favor of
Los Angeles as the place in which to hold
our next state convention, fdo not wish
you to take this as a pledge that I will vote
for your city, March i4ih,ascircumstances
may arise between now and then which
might cause me to change. lam always
mora than willing to accotnmodnte the
I press, and especially so in case of TitK
I Herald, from whom I resolved such kind
treatment when in Los Angeles.
I Fresno county is for 1jo» Angeles. This
is Committeeman J. I). Edward's lettor:
Have given subject of when to hold next
convention very little thought, but now feel
inclined to favor Los Angeles. Will let
you hear more definitely later.
Committeeman Thomas Kenison writes
fiom Salinas as follows:
I will say that I have not given the mat
ter of the location of tae next Democratic
state convention any consideration what
ever. I have no objection to Los Angeles,
and would be as well satisllod to have the
convention there as any place that. 1 know
of. Da not consider me, however, as
pledged to vote for Los Angeles when the
matter comes up for consideration before
tho state central committee. As a matter
of fact I have no choice at this time, and
am as likely to vote for Los Angeles as any
place.
Sacramento county is of course for Sac
ramento city. Committeeman M. K. Beard
writes frankly:
"I am in favor of holding the next state
convention in Sacramento. Its central lo-
I cation oilers economy in time and money,
antl will virtually do away with proxies.
Added to this, it has accommodations sec
ond to no city in tlie state."
Committeeman i'etor J. Shields writes in
part:
"The Democrats up here heartily appre
ciate your efforts in the cause of our parly,
and will give your city, for your sake, a
careful consideration. For my part lam
for Sacramento lirst, Los Angeles second,
and for the Democratic ticket always, wher
ever nominated."
A JAIL BREAK
W. Hendel, Serving a Term tor Larceny
Escapes
One of the involuntary boarders at the
county jail made his escape yesterday.
This particular hobo—for it is as Buch
William Hendel would bo classified—has a
decided penchant for liberty, and of that
particular brand that permits him to do
what he pleases at any one else's expense.
Yesterday Hendel had served a six
months' sentence for larceny and was re
committed a week ago on another charge
for sixty days. Ordinarily he appearsd to
be a pretty good prisoner and had been
made one of tlie trusties. Yesterday,
while working in one of tho turnkey's
rooms, under tho supervision of the jailer,
lie watched his opportunity until the latter
was called away for a moment and then
opened the door, whicii giveß exit outside
the ponderous jail gate, und made his es
cape.
Sheriff Burr at once had full description
of the escape printed, with the offer of $25
reward for his recapture, and these Blips
were forwarded to all tho suburban towns.
Hendel is supposed not to be quite sound
mentally, for not only has he been con
fined in the insane asylum, but when first
arrested tried to commit suicide in tlie
city prison.
