LEGALITV AND EQUITY
STICKING TO THE LETTER COMES
i HIGH
AS SHOWN BY A COUNTY CLAIM
When Constable Lopes Got No Pay lor
Tweedledee He Charged It Up to
Tweedledum
That It Is not always a saving to stick
closely to the letter of the law in county
financial affairs the board of supervisors
will learn to its cost when it receives Con
stable P. L. Lopez's demand for January.
Lopez Is the constable at San Fernando,
and a hardworking officer he Is, the terror
of hobos and vagrants who pass through
Fernando without money or blankets.
San Fernando has a Justice of the peace
and a constable, but no jail. Whenever
anyone was committed to the county jail
after the last train had passed through for
Los Angeles, Constable Lopez, as a matter
of economy to the county, used to hire a
man to guard the prisoners during the
night until the morning train should come
along. Instead of hiring a team and bring
ing them forthwith to Burr's bastille. Tho
former course cost 12.60, the latter $6.75;
but there was no provision In the statutes
for tho hiring of a guard, whereas the law
permits the renting of a rig for the trans
portation of prisoners.
Deputy District Attorney George Hol
ton's business it is to pass upon the claims
and demands against the county, so far as
their legality Is concerned. Whether a
claim Is an equitable one or not cuts no
figure with him. All he has to do is to see
whether the law has made provision for
the payment of this or that demand against
the county treasury.
The deputy district attorney therefore
endorsed the several demands for guard
hire as not being a legal charge against
the county, and the board of supervisors
disallowed them. As Lopez, however, had
paid his g°>ard and his action had in reality
saved money to the county, Mr. Holton
advised the board that as a matter of
equity it would be well to pass the claim,
but the board refused.
Constable Lopez said nothing and sawed
wood until he again had prisoners to con
vey to the county jail after the San Fran
cisco train had passed by. Then he went to
J. M. Jenifer's stable and hired a double
team at the expense of $6.75. His little bill
for January Is exactly $39.75 for livery sta
ble rigs. It would have been $15 If the board
of supervisors could have seen their way
to concede that a rose by any other name
is still a rose, even If gotten at a bargain
counter.
A PASADENA FORGER
Signed His Mother's Name to Checks
to Have Money to Burn
Arthur R. Perry of Pasadena, a young
man of respectable appearance but with a
very shifty eye, was examined before Just
ice Young yesterday on the charge of
forgery and held to answer in the sum of
11000. He was accused by I*. E. Mittendorf
of having passed a check for $25 upon him,
payable at the First National bank of Pas
adena, alleged to have been signed by Mrs.
C. A Perry, mother of the defendant, but
which turned out to be a forgery.
Mr. Mittendorf of the firm of Mittendorf
& Rogers, saloon and restaurant keepers
of this city, said that he had in January;
cashed a $13 check, in which the signature
seemed similar to that in the forded check,
for the defendant, and he had experienced
no trouble with it. Consequently, when
Perry came on tho 23d of February with a
$25 check he believed it to be all right and
let him have $12.50 on it. The next day
Perry returned and asked for $5 more,
which he got. The witness then turned In
the check with other money into his own
bank, but the paper was returned two days
later marked "no funds."
Mr. Mayer, cashier of the First Nation
al bank at Pasadena, Identified the check,
stated that there were no funds in the
bank to meet It and that it did not bear
Mrs. Caroline A. Perry's signature.
Mrs. Perry, mother of the defendant, an
elderly lady, testitled that the signature
upon the check was not written by her,
nor had she authorized her son or anyone
else to sign her name to It.
The defendant claimed that he had ob
tained permission from his mother to sign
her'name to the $13 check and that she had
told him at the time that whenever he got
in trouble he might.use her name again.
He had no idea of committing forgery.
On cross-examination he admitted having
served fourteen months in the penitentiary
for forgery. He was somewhat bothered
when District Attorney James asked him
when he claimed to have received permis
sion to sign his mother's name to checks
If he didn't know that if such had been the
truth his mother would since a very long
time have had no money in the bank to
draw against.
JOE BUNGER'S PLIGHT
His Wife Says He's Crazy; Admits He
Was When He Married Her
Joseph Bunger emphatically denies that
marriages are made In heaven, and If they
are, he claims that he wasn't in the pro
cession. Bunger Is 71 years old. but he
doesn't look It. He is a tall, vigorous old
man who would never be taken for more
than 58 or 60. Some six months ago he
married Stella McLaughlin, a buxom Ver
mont lady, who Is only 14 years of age.
They have been leading a cat and dog
life since they got spliced, Mrs. Bunger
not being chary of any remarks about her
husband's ancestry whenever she was in
censed at him. On Wednesday Bunger had
enough of it and removed his two cows and
calves from the marital mansion for the
purpose of resuming a life of blessed
bachelorhood. Thereupon his wife hur
ried to the county clerk, where she swore

to a complaint accusing old Bunger of
being crasy.
When the old gentleman was arrested
he said that If ever he had been crasy
It was on the day he married his Stella,
but that he was as compos mentis now as
he ever had been or hoped to be. That was
also the opinion of the sheriff and his dep
uties, but Bunger was nevertheless or

signs of mental aberration.
HARRISON'S GRUBSTAKE
He Forgot Hogan's Aid When He Bold
the Rose Mines
Contractor Charles S. HOgan has brought
suit against Robert F. Harrison for the
sum of $2500 which he claims as commis
sion. The plaintiff alleges that in May,
1895, he paid to Harrison $200. That was a
grubstake. In consideration of this sum
the defendant agreed that In the event
of the sale of the Rose group of gold mines
In the Morongo district, San Bernardino
county, he would return to Hogan his $200
and give him 2 per cent of all commission
derived from the sale. In any event, his
commission should not be less than $1500.
At the time of making this agreement
the parties to it believed that the commis
sions on the sale would not fall below $105,
--000. Harrison was fully empowered to sell
the Rose group, but he was "busted" and
presslngly in need of money in order to pull
the transaction through. Hogan saw a
chance to make a couple of hundred fruc
tify into a couple of thousand and became
Harrison's Good Samaritan. When the
sale was over, the defendant, according to
the plaintiff's complaint, forgot his obli
gation and only repaid the money that Ho
gan had advanced to him in his hour of
need.
SAN GABRIEL TRACTION CO.
Articles of Incorporation Filed for a
New Electric Road
Articles of Incorporation of the San Ga
briel Traction company were filed yester
day. The railway line Is to be built from
this city through to Pasadena by the most
feasible route, with a branch line to Al
hambra, Sierra Madre, Monrovia and
Duarte, the estimated length of the road
being twenty-two miles. The principal
place of business of the corporation will be
Los Angeles.
The board of directors consists of James
S. Graham and S. P. Anderson of Chicago
and Walter S. Maxwell. Bradner W. Lee
and Albert Hadley of this city. S. P. An
derson Is the treasurer of the newly Incor
porated concern.
The capital stock of the San Gabriel
Traction company consists of $1,000,000, di
vided into 10,000 shares. Of this amount
$22,000 has been subscribed and $2200 actu
ally paid Into the corporation's treasury.
Most of the subscribed shares were taken
by James S. Graham, trustee, whose name
appears for $20,000 of the capital stock.
WHEN IT DOESN'T RAIN
Hay Goes Up and Contracts Have to
Go to the Wall
Jesse Boyd says that on January 21st C.
H. Mollen agreed to sell to him 300 tons
of barley and oat hay and to deliver it
within a reasonable time at any place
within five miles of Thirty-second and Hoo
ver streets, the purchase price being $7
per ton, to be paid as fast as delivered.
Mellen let Boyd have sixty tons and then
quit, notwithstanding the reminders of the
plaintiff, one of which was in writing.
Mellen's failure to fulfill his contract has
caused Boyd a damage of $1680, so he al
leges .and he has now sued the party of the
second part for that sum in the superior
court. Mr. Boyd made an attempt to fill
the order elsewhere, but the lowest figure
at which he could get a quotation on hay
was $14.
A Justice Clerk's Salary
Among the demands that are not legal
charges against the county, which have
been turned down with regularity since
October last by Deputy District Attorney
Holton and the board of supervisors, are
those for $50 per month presented for Wil
liam H. Young, who is acting as clerk to
his father, by Wm. Young, township jus
tice of the p£ace. The last one which was
disallowed met that fate yesterday. The
justice of the peace claims the right to
employ a clerk under last year's statutes.
Whether his point is well taken or not. It is
a matter of fact that this magistrate could
not very conveniently perform the clerical
work of bis office without letting the
judicial branch of it suffer. It seems to be
a debateable point whether he Is entitled
under the circumstances to equitable relief,
but it is opined In the district attorney's
office that a regular monthly demand for
a clerk's salary Is not the best way to have
the matter adjusted satisfactorily.
Mining Machinery Fight
Willard H. Clark yesterday instituted an
action in replevin against Charles H. Ca
rey, receiver of the Willamette Steam Mill
I, umbering and Manufacturing company
and the Kelso Creek Mining and Develop
ment company, and against Joseph H.
Williams. The Llewellyn iron works sold
In the beginning of the year to Clark a
two-stamp mill complete, an ore feeder,
rock crusher, etc.. located on a mining
claim in Kern county owned by the Kelso.
The defendants, however, refused to give
up possession of the machinery, which Is
valued at $1500. The plaintiff demands the
return of the property or else $1500 for Its
value and $500 damage for the unlawful de
tention.
Viewing the Spot
The evidence for the defense In the $26,
--000 damage suit of J. F. Burns and wife
against the Main Street Electric Car com
pany was concluded yesterday afternoon,
after which the jury was taken In charge
of the sheriff to view the place where the
accident occurred to Mrs. Burns, at the
corner of Seventeenth and Main streets.
The gist of the testimony for the coni
pany, mostly from passengers on the car.
was that it stopped only once, and that
was after Mrs. Burns had jumped off it
while it was still in motion.
Probate Matters
A petition for the probate of the will of
John Low, deceased, was filed yesterday.
He left $471 on deposit in the Union Bank of
Savings.
Letters of administration to the estate
of Thomas Clifford, who left a stock of
second-hand furniture at 911 South Main
street valued at $4500. have been applied
for by his brother Robert.
William E. and Catherine Londre have
applied for leave to adopt an orphan named
Joseph Watkins, 4 years and 6 months old.
Followed the Star of the West
Charles Dellit, a native of Missouri, 23,
years old, who was found by the police
wandering around on the Boyle Heights
streets acting queerly and hiding at times
as if in fear of some one, was ordered com
mitted to Highland yesterday by Judge
Clark. Insanity runs in the family. Among
his hallucinations is one that he hears a
voice telling him to follow the star of the
west. In consequence of that voice he is
in the asylum now.
House Has a Third Stroke
The district attorney's office was yester
day morning advised telephonically by the
officials at the Highland Insane asylum
that Frank House, recently committed to
that institution, had had another stroke
of paralysis; that he was unconscious and
In a very precarious condition. As this is
the third stroke which the sick man has
had, It is not believed that he will re
cover.
The Water Suit
The suit of the city against the Crystal
Springs company is dragging along slowly
in Department three of the superior court.
The case for the plaintiff is not yet con
cluded and the probabilities are that it
will hold the attention of Judge York for a

considerable length of time. The develop
ment of the testimony presents no features
[of Interest to the general public.
Spencer Sentenced
Arthur Spencer, found guilty of person
ating a United States officer in Chinatown,
was sentenced to three years In the Fol
som penitentiary yesterday by Judge Well
born. The other two charges against him
of a similar character were dismissed.
Forged a Signature
The trial of Dee Wee Fong, charged with
forging a signature to a money order, was
set for March 31st.
THE RAINFALL
Light Precipitation Reported—Clear
ing Weather and North Wind
When the rain began to patter down on
Wednesday night the number of people
who were delighted to hear It fall can be
estimated by the size of the population in
the area covered. A slight drizzle began
in the evening about 9 oclock, continuing
at Intervals until toward morning, when it
fell heavily until nearly noon yesterday.
The weather bureau reports that the
storm developed south of San Francisco
and was central yesterday morning In the
southern portion of the San Joaquin val
ley, where the pressure was abnormally
low. An area of low pressure extended
from the northern portion of the San Joa
quin valley southeastward to the Mexican
boundary. This causes southerly to east
erly winds, accompanied by cloudy weath
er and general rains, which, up to the hour
reports were received, had been light. The
storm, It was predicted, would probably
pass eastward during the night, followed
by clearing weather and brisk to high
northerly winds.
Up to 5 oclock yesterday morning, when
the last reports were received, the rainfall
at San Diego was two-tenths of an Inch,
at Fresno sixteen one-hundredths of an
inch.
A telegram from Ventura yesterday said
the barorpeter read there, 29.55, the lowest
ever known. At 5 oclock last evening the
total precipitation In Los Angeles was .60
of an inch, making for the season 4.80
Inches, which is 7.63 Inches less than the
seasonal average.
Instructions were received to hoist In
formation signals that a high north wind
is expected with increasing force north
ward.
TOURING THE COUNTRY
Gov. Hastings and Party of Pennsyl
vania in the City
A notable pleasure party from Pennsyl
vania Is registered at the Westminster
hotel, consisting of Gov. D. H. Hastings,
Attorney-General Henry C. McCormlck
and State Senator Henry C. Cochran, ac
companied by their wives and daughters.
The governor and party arrived yester
day morning at 8.30 In their private car
Pickwdck, in which they are making a
pleasure tour of the country. They will
leave tomorrow afternoon for San Diego,
where they Intend remaining two days.
From there they will Journey northward,
visiting all points of interest throughout
the state.
They are enthusiastic in their admiration
of the climate and beauties of Southern
California and the advent of the much
needed rain was a pleasant relief to the
dry and parched condition of the country
just passed through.
Secretary Wiggins of chamber of com
merce expressed regret that no intimation
was received by that body of the contem
plated visit so that suitable preparations
might have been made to receive them.
ASSAULTED A WOMAN
A Hobo Who Wanted Shelter and Got
What He Wanted
Because Kitty Rogers, nn Alameda street
crib girl, would not let Barney Flood, a
tough looking young hobo, occupy her
quarters to keep out of the rain early yes
terday morning, he brutally assaulted her.
He had been making the rounds of the cribs
and entered the woman's place, where he
proceeded to make himself at home. He
wanted to stay there all day, but was or
dered to leave. Instead of doing so he
seized her by the throat. She screamed,
and in order to stop her cries Flood struck
her several times in the face, splitting her
lips In two places so badly that four
stitches had to be taken in the wounds.
The woman's cries attracted the attention
of Patrolmen Harris and Sheets, who ar
rested Flood and locked him up on a charge
of battery. The woman was taken to the
receiving hospital, where her wounds were
dressed.
MANY CHARGES
Andy Swanson Booked for a Number
of Offenses
If Andy Swanson, the rancher who al
most killed Patrolman Joe Miller Wednes
day night by throwing him from a buggy,
Is given the limit on all the charges that
have been preferred against him he will
remain in jail for the rest of the year. The
first charge upon which he was arrested
was that of disturbing the peace, and
when he assaulted the officer in the buggy
and threw him out that constituted the ad
ditional offense of resisting an officer.
Drunkenness was another word placed In
the column on the police register where the
offenses are recorded, and If all of these
fall, the charge of battery and fast driving
may be later preferred. It is known that he
Is guilty of all of these, but upon just which
of them he will be lirst prosecuted will not
be known until next Thursday, to which
day the case was yesterday continued.

THE COAST ROAD GAP TO BE IM
MEDIATELY CLOSED
Men, Animals and Tools Ordered to the
Spot—Unmistakable Evidence.
Motes and Personal Mention
There Is no question that the "surf line
of the Southern Pacific will be completed
now as fast as Mr. Huntington can accom
plish the work with men and money. Chief
Engineer Hood of the road arrived at El
wood yesterday with Superintendent Frai
ler and other executive officials and took
measures preliminary for the placing of a
large force at work. The contractors,
McMurtrie & Stone, have ordered a full
outfit of horses and mules to Surf and are
now shipping tools, scrapers and men.
The report was brought yesterday from
i.ompoc that It had been announced there
that a thousand men were to be employed
working constantly, by electric light at
night, so that one shift would Immediately
succeed another. This may be true or not,
but there Is every reason to believe that
trains to San Francisco by the new route
will be running by the first of next year.
The Importance of this line to Los An
geles can hardly be overestimated. It
will make tributary to this city a vast ex
tent of country which has heretofore stood
still on account of lack of connection with
the rest of the world except by boat or
stage. It should also reduce the time be
tween this city and San Francisco to al
most, if not quite, twelve hours, and Its
grades will reduce the cost of hauling
freight to the railroad company by almost
one-third, though It Is of course not prob
able that shippers will get the benefit of
this.
One thing that all travelers will be
grateful for will be the elimination of the
long tunnel at Newhall for those bound
northward. The company, it is true, takes
all possible precautions against accident
at this grewsome place, and none ever has
occurred there, but it is none the less a
nerve trying passage to those who under
stand the peculiar formation of the pierced
mountain. The new route will also leave
out of the features of the trip the passing
through that enormous oven, the San
Joaquin valley. General Manager Krutt
schnitt has ordered all curves to be
straightened out in the road along the
Salinas river, which shows that the route
will surely be the main line between the
north and the south.
NOTES AND PERSONALS
The special committee of the chamber of
commerce of San Diego has sent out a let
ter to all shippers and business men, ask
ing them to give the committee any infor
mation they may possess as to the alleged
"pooling agreement" between the Santa
Fe and the Southern Pacific railway com
panies. The statement is made in the let
ter that the committee intends to get at
the bottom facts of the acts if it is possi
ble by hard work to do so.
The rain of yesterday was reported as
general by both the Santa Fe and the
Southern Pacific station agents through
this part of the state.
President Ripley of the Santa Fe will be
here, it is said, the iatter part of this
month.
M. W. Armstrong charged the Santa Fe
recently with exacting an Illegal rate for
travel between Los Angeles and the Nee
dles, In demanding 116.75, or 6 cents a mile.
The railroad replied to the state commis
sion, before which the complaint was filed
that the rate was no higher than Is charged
on other roads In Colorado and Montana,
and the commission decided that the road
had a right to charge the sum asked.
President William Garland of the Gila
Valley and Globe railway received word
yesterday that the president had ap
proved the granting of the right of way for
the road across the San Carlos Indian res
ervation.
The last cut of the Canadian railway In
eastbound rates has not been met by the
American overland roads out of California.
The railroad has changed the name of
Solomon in Arizona to Solomonville.
The Southern Pacific company has a
force of fifty men at work on Its line In
Riverside crossing the big Irrigation canal.
WOULDN'T TELL HIS NAME
Suggestion of Jail Reveals a Prospect
ive Juror's Identity
Patrolman Rico Is now on what Is known
to the police as office duty, and among his
duties is that of summoning jurors for
cases in the city justice courts in which a
jury trial Is demanded. The talesmen are
not chosen from a regular venire but citi
zens are met on the street by the officer
and summoned for service without warn-
ing. As there is no compensation for Jury
duty In the justice courts two men in ev
ery three summoned try to escape such
work which of course takes their time
from their business.
Patrolman Rico had a new experience in
serving summonses yesterday. He had to
secure a jury for today and started out to
find thirty-five men. At First and Spring
streets he encountered a man whom he did
not know and immediately served a sum
mons on him. All such papers are made
out in blank and the names are placed on
them after service. When the officer asked
the stranger his name he refused positively
to give It. "1 don't want to go on no jury
and I won't do it." said the man. For a
moment Rico was at a loss to know how to
proceed, but only for a moment. "You'll
give me your name or you'll give it to the
court," said he, and with that he took the
man before Justice Owens and explained
the matter. "Just make out the summons
In the name of John Doe," said the court,
"and If that man is not here tomorrow I'll
put him in jail for contempt."
The suggestion of a jail sentence settled
the matter, and the prospective juror
promptly gave his name as D. B. Gray, 704
North Main street.
SENSELESS FROM FRIGHT
A Chinaman Who Fell In the Mud and
Was Later Cleaned
A middle-aged Chinaman, apparently un
conscious, was brought to the police sta
tion yesterday afternoon and carried ten
derly Into the receiving hospital. He was
covered with mud from head to foot and
his groans indicated that he was badly In
jured. It was stated to the police that he
had fallen off his wagon and had been run
over and that several ribs were broken.
The Mongolian was stripped and while
waiting for the doctor one of the trusties
cleaned the mud off his clothes. Dr. Hagan
closely examined the man's body, but was
unable to And any sign of an Injury except
a few slight bruises on the arm. When
assured that he was not hurt In the least
the man quickly revived and was released.
