THE KNOX CASE
Curiously Contradictory
Evidence
A DEBT RISES IN JUDGMENT
MISS MIZENER IS SUING THE
BRADBURY ESTATE
Charge of Embezzlement Against G.
Lindenfeldt— Regarding the
Work on the Baltimore
The defense opened in the case of Mrs.
Julia Knox, charged with perjury, yes
terday, anA a somewhat different com
plexion has been thrown upon the cir
cumstances of the case, which have been
in themselves sufficiently entangled.
As a matter of fact ,Mrs. Knox cannot,
on oath, say absolutely whether she
signed or did not sign that note for $250,
payable to Mrs. Driscoll, and drawn in
the office of Attorney Pierce. But she
Is very positive that if she did sign it, It
was under a misconception, and she had
no reason to sign a note for any such
amount.
iWhen the defendant testified In the
township court that she had never sign
ed the note, and repudiated it, she did
so. so she testified, for several reasons.
First, because she never owed Mrs.
Driscoll more than $100, other than a
few small amounts, which she had re
paid, and there was, therefore, no sense
In. having signed a note for the larger
amount. Secondly, the occurrence
which caused her to become indebted to
Mr. Driscoll for $100 did not occur until
March, 1595, while the note was dated
in January, 1895. Thirdly, and lastly,
Mrs. Knox felt fortified in the stand
she took when she remembered that she
had in her possession Attorney Pierces
receipt for the $100 which she had re
ceived from Mrs. Driscoll, and at once
turned over to Mr. Pierce as counsel fees.
These several facts were so firmly en
graved on Mrs. Knox's mind that she
felt perfectly certain in her repudiation
of the $250 note.
But the note is in evidence, and it is
certain that either Mrs. Knox signed it
or that her signature was forged. With
regard to its being dated previous to the
time when the $100 was paid over, At
torney Pierce and Mrs. Driscoll both
stated upon the witness stand that the
note was antedated to the time in Jan
uary when the debt of $150—making up
the balance of the note —was contracted.
But both of these witnesses testified
practically to the contrary at the pre
liminary examination, and, after the
signing episode in Attorney Pierces of
fice, several witnesses testified to con
versations in which Mrs. Driscoll took
part, and in which she claimed an in
debtedness on the part of Mrs. Knox
of only $100. On Christmas night of
1895, In the presence of Mrs. Knox, her
husband and Miss Emma Hassfurther,
after Mrs. Knox had spoken in a rather
downcast manner regarding her
troubles of the past year, Mrs. Driscoll
remarked: "You are not in debt much,
and the $100 note you owe me you need
not worry over. I would not call for it
at all if it was not for my son George."
Then again, in April, 1896, the same
people being present, and also Edward
Sales ,the latter asked Mrs. Knox if she
owned her place, and she replied: "I do
not consider that I own it until It is
paid for," and thereupon she turned
to Mrs. Driscoll and inquired: "Have
you destroyed that $100 note of mine?"
and Mrs. Driscoll responded: "Yes, I've
torn it up."
With regard to the tearing proposi
tion, and as explanatory of it, Mrs.
Knox had paid $50 on the note and later
having done various kinds of work for
Mrs. Driscoll, the latter said they would
cry quits and she would tear up the note.
And so she did, apparently, for the note
in evidence has been torn into bits and
then pasted together. But it is a $250
note, not a $100 one.
THE BALTIMORE HOTEL
Judge York Rules Upon Points Im
portant to Those About to Build
'An opinion handed down yesterday
by Judge York in the. suit of W. H.
Perry Lumber and Mill company vs. P.
A. Garvie et al. touches upon several
points of importance not only to con
tractors, but to every one who contem
plates building.
The above suit arose out of difficulties
and contentions in connection with the.
erection of the Baltimore hotel, on Sixth
and Olive streets, and the court holds
that a stipulation in a contract for build
ing a house to be used for hotel or lodg
ing house purposes that the contractor
Will pay $15 per day as liquidated dam
ages for each day's delay In the con
struction of ihe building is void because
actual damage? in such cases can be
readiiy ascertained.
I hold that oral contracts modify the
original plans in which the parties to the
contract and the architect participated,
and which were executed, were valid
contracts and changed tho original con
tract to the extent of the executed mod
ifications.
I further find that several delays in the
work in question were caused by the
owner to the damage of the contractor,
and that the contractor used reasonable
diligence in the prosecution of the work.
The owner was. during the work, insist
ent, and constantly urged greater prog
ress in the work. For instance, the
owner was to have the electric wiring
done by independent contract; the
plasterer could not proceed with the
lathing until the wires were in, and
about two weeks delay in the construc
tion was caused thereby. The owner
insisted that other work could be. done
during the time of the delay in wiring
for electricity, but the contractor would
have been doing such work to a grea;
disadvantage. I have noted fifteen in
stances where the contractor claims
that delay was caused by the owner,
and many of them are substantiated by
the evidence. The owner wasi however,
exercising more than ordinary diligence
to prevent these delays.
All parties, including the architect,
seem to have forgotten the terms of the
contract, and as the work progressed
changes were made and extra work was
done without any attempt to comply
with the methods provided for the same,
as specified in the contract. The owner
even now invokes the terms of the con
tract, relating to extras, only where he
thinks the charges for extras are unjust.
The building waa completed on Febru
ary 26, 1896. By the terms of the-contract
betwen the owner and the contractors
the contractors were to receive $24,000
for the construction of the building, of
which sum $14,400 was paid in accord
ance with the terms of the contract, and
$9600 thereof and said $280, due for ex
tras, are unpaid.
Plaintiff and intervenor are entitled to
judgment against Mackay & Young, as
prayed for in their complaints, and for
foreclosure of lien to the extent of the
amount due from Oarvie.
Attorney's fees will be allowed plain
tiff in the decree of foreclosure against
Mackay & Toung and Garvle to be fixed
In the decree.
Findings will be prepared in accord
ance herewith.
AN EMBEZZLEMENT CHARGE
Is Preferred Against George Llnden
f eldt by a German
A complaint was sworn to In the town
ship court on Monday, charging George
Llndenfelt, who is with the firm of Pep
per & Lindenfeldt, in the practice of the
law, with offices in the Bullard block.
The charge preferred wasembezzlement
and was made by Christian Horn.
It appears from the statement of the
prosecuting witness, that he gave young
Lindenfeldt $300 several months ago,
with instructions to advance the money
to any of his friends or clients who stood
prepared to give a mortgage on unen
cumbered real estate. Time passed along
but Lindenfeldt made no report regard
ing his disposition of the money. Final
ly, Mr. Horn claims, he inquired about
the matter, and the young man showed
him a two-story residence, upon which
he stated he had loaned the amount.
Mr. Horn was not able to get a note or
mortgage from the alleged borrower,
and, becoming impatient, placed th
matter In the hands of another attorney,
who subsequently reported that Mr
Lindenfeldt had neither note, mortgage
nor money.
Upon this representation, Horn wer.t
to the office of the district attorney, who
drew the complaint upon which a war
rant was issued from Justice Young's
court. In consequence of the indisposi
tion of his wife, Lindenfeldt ha 9 not
been at hi 9 office for a day or two, but
yesterday afternoon the defendant hav
ing heard of the charge preferred
against him, surrendered himself in the
township court and was released pend
ing the examination on furnishing a
bond for $1000.
THE BRADBURY ESTATE
Being Sued for 82500 by Miss Pearl
Mizener
Pearl Mizener, a young lady who was
for a time stenographer and typewriter
at the "Crocker," is trying to recover
$2500 from the Bradbury estate. Some
time ago she filed suit against Simona
M. Bradbury, individually, and also a?
trustee of the Bradbury estate, in con
junction with John Bradbury and Ro
sario Winston.
Yesterday the suit came to trial before
Judge Shaw and a jury, in department
five. It appeared that on or about Sep
tember 25th, 1894, the defendants were
putting in some trees along the frontage
of the sidewalk of the Bradbury man
sion on Court street. The excavation?
made for the reception of these trees
served as a pitfall, it is alleged, for Mia?
Mizener, for upon returning to her home
on the night of October 4, she fell into
one of the excavations and got such a
severe bruising and shaking up that
she was confined to her bed for ten daya.
She was, she claims, compelled to en
gage a nurse and, what with physician."
fees ar.d drugs, ran up quite a large bill.
Of necessity, too, she was absent from
her business, which was yielding her
$60 per month, and through such absence
lost the position altogether.
In these premises Miss Mizener
that she be awarded $2500 as damages.
New Suits Filed
The matter of the application of the
Grace Methodist Episcopal church—The
petition of the church that it be permit
ted to sell the property at the southwest
erly corner of lot 23, block 4, of the San
chez tract, situated on the rear of cer
tain property on First street, and having
no access to that street. Unless sold In
connection with the property adjoining
and with frontage on First street it Will
have little value.
The estate of Philip C. Stoll, deceased
—Petition of Katie Stoll for probate of
will. The estate is valued at $12,050.
The estate of Lester A. Rowell, de
ceased —Petition of Fred Rowell for let
ters of administration. The estate is
valued at $400.
The Divorce Mill
A decree was granted yesterday by
Judge Clark to Mrs. C. B. Rowe, quite
a handsome young lady of the Spanish
type, divorcing her from T. R. Rowe, on
the ground of desertion.
The couple married only a year or two
ago, and from the outset there was some
unhappiness on account of the husband
being given over to intemperance. His
people are well to do at Mount Vernon,
Indiana, and he lived on the money he
received from home, but would not turn
to and work. He never gave his wife a
cent, and finally! did her the good turn of
leaving her and returned to his folks in
the east.
A Heavy Foreclosure
Judge Clark yesterday granted a de
cree of foreclosure in the suit of H. G.
Hubbard against the University Bank of
Los Angeles to recover on a mortgage
for $15,000. The property involved ie
known as the Redick block, ar.d is
situated on the southeast corner of First
street and Broadway.

NORTON'S SUICIDE
Reminiscences of Two Former Los
Angeles Boys
The suicide of Isaac Norton in San
Francisco has created a good deal of
interest in Los Angeles. Ike, as he was
familiarly called, and his brother, Abe.
are well known to most of the people
here who have been residents of the
city for ten years and more. They were
born here, and their parents are still
residents of Los Angeles. For the past
seven or eight years the father has not
been in business, owing to his advanc
ing years. But for a great many years,
more than thirty, he did business here.
The last place where his store was lo
cated was on Main street, just below
where Court street connects. He was
in the boot and shoe trade.
Here is a very touching incident con
nected with his son's death. Moses Nor
ton is old. He lives with his aged Wife
out on Ninth street. Ike and' Abe were
the apple of their eye. Both had been
filial sons and their parents thought
the world of them. A great number of
friends, working without consultation
but with a common inspiration, have so
managed things that neither of the old
people have seen a newspaper since the
first .announcement of Isaac's suicide.
They have been informed of his death
as being sudden, but from natural
causes. They still mourn him as dead
but not as a suicide or defaulter.
The two brothers were born and raised
here in Los Angeles. They went to
school together, and since they grew up
have been as inseparable. Away back
in the early SO's Abe was deputy county
clerk under old-Wiise Potts. Later Abe
and Ike went into business in the mines
up at Calico. They married two sisters,
the daughters of Mr. Jackson of San
Bernardino.
Six or seven years ago they went to
San Francisco. Abe was in the mint
all the first Cleveland term of office, and
probably is there again under Daggett
When Welborn was made collector of
internal revenue at San Francisco Isaa?
was made cashier. As cashier he han
dled money some days to the amount of
$10,000. Anyone who knew Ike Norton,
well would have gone on his bond fo
sloo,ooo. He was considered perfectly
honest.
He was about 37 years old, and his de
parture from the paths of rectitude is
a severe shock to the theory of moral
ists who claim that a man once he passes
thirty does not often change his mora!
habits, especially if they are good up
to that time. Gambling has been the
cause of Norton's downfall and death.
HISTORICAL SOCIETY
It Met Yesterday Noon in the Bullard
Block

JUNE A BUSY MONTH
WITH CHIEF CLERK JOHNSON
OF THE R. M. S.
Annual Baport — Recommendations
for Change* Toward Getting
Better Service
There are no busier people about the
federal building than J. M. Johnson,
chief clerk of the railway mall service,
and his assistant, J. W. Holland. As Is
generally known. Uncle Sam celebrates
his New Year's day, July Ist, as the fis
cal year of the postoffice department
ends June 30th of each year. This means
a very busy month of June, for all em
ployed In this great branch of the gov
ernment, and whatever may be the
opinions prevailing in the outside world
as to "fat government positions," It Is
evident that there are none in the post
office department.
"If any one doubts the democracy of
the postofflce department," said Mr.
Johnson yesterday, "he should glance in
at the windows where the business ot
the department is being done these days.
He will certainly find all hands at work.
Uncle Sam does not furnish ten men to
do the banqueting and five to do thi
work, as is the case with some corpora
tions, but every one, from the top down,
must roll up his sleeves and jump in, it
the work of the department is properly
attended to."
The annual report, which includesrec
ommendationg for such changes and ad
ditional service as the advancement of
the country may require, is specially oc
cupying the attention of the chief clerk's
office at present. "It is one thing to ask
and another to get what is needed," said
Mr. Johnson. "We have never been abe
to persuade the department back there
on the 'peaceful Potomac' that the west
in many places is doubling its popula
tion about twice in a decade, and that
our asking, while it may appear to them
to come from a locality that can never
get enough, is only in keeping with the
actual necessities which confront us."
Among the recommendations 19 one
asking that transfer clerks be appoint
ed for the Southern California and
Southern Pacific depot? of this city;
clerks whose duty It will be to transfer
the malls between trains, such transfer
clerk to have a room where he cou'd
open the pouches and distribute the
mails which would reach him in pack
ages, and in that way make quicker and
closer connections between incoming
and outgoing mail trains for local points
in Southern California.
A transfer clerk has also been asked
for, to be stationed at the Southern Cali
fornia railway depot at San Bernardino
Recommendations have been made for
railway postoffice service on the line be
tween San Diego and Foster, in San Di
ego county, and also on the National
City and Otay railway line between Sar.
Diego and Tia Juana, on the Mexican,
border.
The placing of mall service ar.d rail
way postofflce service on the line of the
electric company between Pasadena and
Los Angeles is touched upon in the re
port, but Mr. Johnson does not deal witn
that matter extendedly. for the reason
that Assistant Superintendent Lewis of
the railway mail service of San Fran-
clsco went over this line in its whole
length, from Altadena to Santa Monica
in April, 1896. when the road was first
opened, and made a full report on the
entire line, recommending that railway
postofflce service be established there
on. This report is on file with the de
partment, and as soon as the additional
service can be allowed fa thing con
trolled by congressional appropriations)
it will be established.
The distribution of the Lof; Angeles
city letter mails by the railway postal
clerks on the line between Albuquerque.
N. M., and this city, is another matte-.
that has a prominent place in the report.
It has been demonstrated that the dis
tribution of city mail? by the clerks of
the railway mail service is a success,
and it now becomes necessary to per
fect the system by which this is done,
and to Increase the number of men upon
whom this work devolves.

Can Depend
On It
WHEN we make a statement the public knows If s
so. We do not find It necessary, in order to
to make a sale, to paint our windows and make
our store look like a junk shop. The mere announce
ment in the daily press that we have goods to sell at
less than regular prices Is ample to fill our store with
buyers. Our values are proverbially good, so when
we say ONE-THIRD OFF (as in the present in
stance) on some three hundred Suits, you can depend
on it that you are going to get something extra good.
Men's Suits that were $15, Now $10
| Men's Suits that were $12, Now $8
I Men's Suits that were $10, Now $6.65
I A great variety of colorings and weaves. Not
I many Suits of a kind—sometimes only one. Unless
B you want two Suits of a kind that should not be an
| objection.
