A PECULIAR LAWSUIT
REBECCA THOMAS WAS STRUCK
BT DAVID CATES
ALL ABOUT AN OLD HENCOOP
The Result Was Peculiarly Disastrous
to Her if the Plaintiff's Evidence
Zs to Be Believed
V peculiar damage suit was partially
tried in Judge Allen's deportment of the
superior court yesterday. It was that of
Rebecca Thoma3 and her husband, Isaac,
of Compton against David Cates. It was
alleged that on the lath of April, 1897, Re
becca Thomas, while pregnant, was vio
lently struck and bruised by Cates. From
the consequences of the assault Mrs.Thom
as suffered a miscarriage. The plaintiff
demanded $10,000 ns a compensation. Cates'
answer was a general denial of the facts
set up. Pope & Mattlngley were attor
neys for the Thomases and Davis & Rush
for Cates.
The deposition of Mrs. Thomas, who
was not present, was read. She claimed
that Cates threw her off a chicken coop,
upon which she was seated to prevent him
from removing it, and struck her. It was
during a dispue over the Ownership of the
coop. The mlscarrlge occurred on the 24th,
and her health was badly affected there
after. It was brought out that Mrs. Thom
as is now at some point in Ohio, and that
her physicians did not think It prudent to
have her come out to California for the
purpose of testifying.

CRAZY MADAME SOUTENTER
A Woman Who Believes She Is Petri
fied Adopts Heroic Measures
An old lady who calls herself Madam
Soutenler, and who resides on Belmont
avenue in this city, was yesterday placed
under restraint at the county hospital
until she can be examined on the charge
of insanity. The woman ls a spiritualist
and adicted to cocaine. She has a hallu
cination that the upper part of her body Is
petrified Inside, and in order to breathe she
thinks it necessary to poke catheters up
her nose in a very violent manner. She
has been prowling near her house in a
very neglige costume and frightening the
neighbors with her hair-raising stories of
her ailments and her heroic treatment for
petrification. Complaints have been pour
ing ln about her, and Police officer Eob
Stewart, after watching her for some time,
concluded that she is insane.
She has residing with her a paralytic
veteran of the late war who is helpless.
He will have to be taken care of by the
Soldiers' Home or the poor farm, ns It Is
believed that Madam Soutenier's case Is
hopeless.
GOES TO SAN" QUENTIN
Burglar Mclntyre Gets One Year for
Fooling With Toogood's Clothes
Charles Mclntyre, a young man, was
Bent to San Qnentin yeeterday for one year
by Judge Smith for a little Indiscretion,
which Is called burglary in the second de
gree in legal parlance. On the 17th of
last month Mclntyre entered tbe room of
C. C. Toogood on Wilmington street and
stole a suit of clothes. He was seen com
ing away by a young woman of the house
hold, who followed the burglar and tele
phoned for an officer.
While Mclntyre was In a second-hand
store disposing of the suit he was neatly
pulled In by a policeman, to whom the girl
had pointed out the thief. Mclntyre pleaded
guilty, and his only request was that the
lodgings to he provided for him at the
state's expense be in San Quenlin and not
in Folsom.

unable to agree upon a verdict and was
discharged. Mrs. Church was injured ln
the hip by falling off a car opposite the
Pico Heights school house on F street, but
the testimony appeared conflicting to the
jury, it having been unable to determine
whether the accident was due to the care
lessness of the motorman and conductor
or to Mrs. Church's haste In alighting from
the oar before tt had come to a stand

UNCLE COLLIS IS COMING
EXPECTS TO LEAVE NEW YORK
IN A FEW DAYS
May Take Hold of the Cuyamaca Road.
Little Hope of Reduced Orange
Rates This Season
C. P. Huntington will be in this city in a
short time. He sent word yesterday to a
friend here that he expected to leave New-
York in a few days for California, coming
by the south. As Mrs. Huntington is very
nervous when traveling and wili not jour
ney at night, it will take the magnate prob
ably seven or eight days to make the trip.
He will make a close study of the question
of the too much talked of "gap" in tho
coast line, and decide some questions ar:s
ing from some local extensions which have
been planned hereabouts.
President Dougherty ot the Randsburg
road has returned from New York. A
railroad bird is the source of the whisper
that he had a conference while there with
Mr. Huntington in reference to the exten
sion to Yuma from the City of Grief of the
Cuyamaca line and its absorption by the
Southern Pacific. The Griefers have, it ls
said, planned this coup in order to get re
venge on Los Angeles by cutting Into the
business that comes from that city. They
also propose to build the Cuyamaca as far
as Oceanside so as to keep all of the trade
of that section in the south. The truth of
Mr. Dougherty's connection with the en
terprise could not be ascertained yester
day, as he was not to be found, and it is
not probable that he would admit the fact,
even If It were so, on account of business
interests. Of the desire, as outlined above,
of a number of the San Diegans there is,
however, no question.
THE ORANGE RATES
It can be set down as a fact that the or
ange growers will not get the 75 cent rate
they have asked the railways to make for
the remainder of the season. It is doubtful
if they get anything less than a dollar.
This comes from the best of sources. The
trouble is, it appears, that the growers are
divided among themselves, many of the
producers of the navels, which are selling
fairly well, fearing that if a reduction is
made that the price of their fruit will drop
in sympathy. It will take at least three
weeks before all of the lines Interested,
ar.d which must be consulted, can be heard
from, so that until then the growers cannot
expect to have any relief.
NOTES OF TIE AND TRACK
The Santa Fe is repairing Its depot at
Santa Monica and has a gang of men at

Petty Criminal Notes
George Manning escaped from the chain
gang yesterday. Manning was serving
thirty days, and his time would have ex
pired Sunday. The officers regard his ac
tion as very peculiar and are inclined to
think that there must have been a floater
or some serious charge against him. or else
he would not have taken chances by at
tempting his liberty when bis sentence bad
been so nearly served.
Fernando Pepe and John Senlch, the
Italians who got Into an altercation ln the
farmer's shoe repairing shop last week,
were sentenced to thirty days in Jail by
Justice Morrison yesterday. Sentence was
suspended during good behavior.
Olaf Pearson appears tf) be tbe correct
name of the man who made such a vicious
attack upon Officer Joe Miller some days
ago in an attempt to escape. The prisoner
was first booked under the name of Andy
Swanson. Pearson will be tried on
the felony charge of resisting an officer.
The case was continued yesterday by Jus
tice Morrison until the 28th at 11 a. m. for
examination.
Arthur Leo was fined $20 for carrying
concealed weapons by Justice Owens yes
terday.
Mike Harris and Pat O'Brien failed to ap
pear for trial before Justice Owens yester
day on the charge of disturbing the peace,
and their bail of $10 each was forfeited.
Officer Baker Arrested
Police Officer S. K. Baker was arrested
yesterday by Deputy Constable Martin or.
a warrant charging him with battery upon
the person of J. W. Shields, a secondhand
furniture dealer of 209 South Main street.
Justice Young released the defendant on
his own recognizance after he had entered
his plea of not guilty and the question of
a trial by jury and its dtite was left open,
Baker having asked for time to consult
with his attorneys. The details of the bat
tery were related fully in yesterday's Issue
of The Herald.

LOS ANGELES HERALD: FRIDAY MORNING. MARCH 18, 1898
THE NEW CITY CHARTER
COUNCIL PASSES PREI
ORDINANCE
Fifteen Freeholders Will Frame a
Charter—Delegates Meet and
Adjourn at Call of the Chair
At an adjourned meeting of the city
council held yesterday morning Judge C.
C. Wright submitted a communication
from the charter committee, appointed last
week, consisting ot John F.
C, C. Wright, H. W. Frank. H. W. O'Mel
veny and William J. Hunsacker. It
urged the necessity of calling an election
for the selection of fifteen freeholders for
the purpose of preparing a new city
charter.
The present charter was adopted when
the city had but about one-third of its
present population and considerable less
territory than at present, and under the
present conditon it ls Inadequate to defin
itely fix and determine the responsibility
for a proper administration of municipal
affairs.
The proposed new charter looks to the
consolidation of such city and county of
fices as are now performing similar func
tions, whereby expenditures would be
greatly reduced; to remedy the unsatis
factory results of the present method of
selecting the board of education, and also
to regulate the contradictory provisions
of the law with reference to the granting
of franchises.
On motion of Mr. Nlckejl, the rules were
suspended and the ordinance was adopted,
after which the council adjourned.
The delegates from the various political
and commercial bodies of the city selected
to bring about the election of a new char
ter met last night at Fitzgerald Music
hall. South Spring street. There was not
a very large representation of delegates,
owing to the heavy rain.
Judge Wright of the committee which
had called upon the council in the fore
noon reported what It had achieved, and
that the council had passed an ordinance
of Intention to call an election.
Mr. Mead thereupon stated that inas
much as the council thus far had only
passed a preliminary ordinance, It would
be Improper to selcet the list of free
holders at this stage before the offices had
been crcatetl. He moved an adjournment,
which was carried by 43 ayes against 19
noes. The meeting was then adjourned,
subject to the call of Chairman Patterson.

and the organizations which they repre
sent:

ST. PATRICK'S DAY RACING
Three Good Events Witnessed by a
Small Crowd
The St. Patrick's day racing meet at
Agricultural park yesterday afternoon did
not bring out as large a crowd as was ex
pected, owing doubtless to the unfavorable
weather and the fact that there was not
sufficient time in which to make prepara
tions. The sport was. however, first class,
and those who did attend were well repaid
for their trouble. The races were under the
management of Robert Hackney and came
off in good shape. J. W. Spooner. W. H.
McFee and P. W. Hodges officiated as
judges, while E. B. Gifford acted as time
keeper.
There were three races on the card—a
trotting race, mile heats, best two in
three; a pacing race, best two in three, and
a three-quarter mile private sweepstakes
running race.
In the first race R. Hackney enlered the
bay stallion Our Lucky, John Pender en
tered the bay mare Helen J. and Walter S.
Maben entered the bay mare Belle Russell.
Helen J. won ln straight heats ln 2:2*>U,
2:28.
In the 2:20 pacing race R. Hackney en
tered the hay gelding George R., Walter
S. Maben entered the bay mare Addie R.,
P. A. Isener entered the bay stallion Judd,
and Matt Hare entered the gray gelding
White Heat. Addie R. took the first heat
In 2:25V-. and Robert R. the next two heats
and race in 2:2oand 2:22'^.
In the three-quarter mile private sweep
stakes the entries were Prince Hooker,
Vishun and Oro. At the first attempt
Prince Hooker ran away and covered three
miles before the boy could pull him up.
The horses were sent to the stables and
twenty minutes later were again started.
Vishun won after a driving finish, beating
out Prince Hooker by a short head, Oro
third. Hooker was a hot favorite ln the
pools, and but for his long run would
doubtless have won the race.
HARES AND HOUNDS
Drawing of Dogs for Sunday's Cours
ing at Agricultural Park

ing meet at Agricultural park took place

Peary, the Explorer, on Baking
Powders
Those going to the Klondike must re
member that a reliable baking powder ls
an absolute necessity. If, after a long and
expensive trip and the great cost of trans
portation, the baking powder proves Infe
rior or has lost its strength, the miner will
be practically helpless. It ls no time or
place to experiment. What ls required Is a
baking powder that has actually stood the
test of the Arctic climate.
The well known explorer, Lieut. Peary,
U. S. N.. says of the Cle> -'ami's baking
powder, which he used on his Arctic expe
ditions:
"Cleveland's stood the tests of use In
those high latitudes and severe tempera
tures perfectly and gave entire satisfac
tion. Mrs. Peary considers that there Is
no better baking powder made than Cleve
land's. 'I shall take It again on my next
expedition."
THE STORIES OF GOLD
FACTS AND FANCIES THE FLOATS
WILL TELL
All Fool's Night Will Not Be Consid
ered Fart of La Fiesta—Official
Stationery Next Week
Tl# story for the Fiesta floats of ISOB is
being evolved with the illustrations, strik
ing and effective. This year there will be
eight beautiful tableau floats, each one
being a historical picture illustrating tho
spirit of man in his elesire for gold. The
story told ln the eight chapters commences
with the Argonauts in their Quest for the
golden fleece and ends with Klondike gold,
which is today alluring all with its glitter
ing promise.
The Argonauts—This float represents the
"Argo." which was commanded by Jason
and manned by the heroes and deml-goeis
of Greece. The keel of "wondrous leng.h,"
the-"lofty mast," the "sails full swelling,"
will all be represented with the fifty men,
who, with Jason, were led by the golden
stars In their bold steerage over the ocean
wave.
The Alchemist—This float represents a
scene ln necromancy, where, In a cavern Is
one of the old alchemists learned in the
mysteries of the universe. The philoso
pher's stone and the ellzlr of life which
haunted the daily thoughts and nightly
dreams of the necromancers of the six
teenth century, are before him. Retorts
and chemicals are upon the furnace, the
fires of which throw weird and uncanny
light upon the snowy beard and wrinkled
face of the monk pursuing his chimera.
The Rhine Gold—While the ethical idea
of this legend is the evil Influence of gold,
yet the beauty of the story is great. Th?
float represents the Rhine gold hidden in
the river, watched by the three Rhine
maidens—Woglinde, Wlllgunde and Floss
hilde. The details of the story are well
known: of the magic helmet worn by Al
berleh and his curse upon those possessing
the Rhine gold. All the beautiful mystery
Of this German legend Is told in the tableau
float.
The Golden Spurs—This float represents
the confirming of the most Illustrious orde>r
of knighthood of most ancient date. A
stage erected before a cathedral ls repre
sented. Upon this are assembled the king
a prelate, lords, ladles and four attendant
knights. Before the king kneels the candi
date for knighthood, while the golden spurs
are held by the attendant knights, the
placing of which will end the ceremony,
Klondike Gold—This float represents a
scene In the Klondike. In a narrow pass
lies a dying miner, supported by two com
panions; their eyes are fixed upon a glit
tering nugget of gold which dazzles them
from the summit of a snowy peak. Around
them lie vast snow fields with a few soli
tary totem poles rising from the Icy drifts.
The aurora borealis sends a rainbow of
light upon the scene, and this Is reflected
in brilliant colors from all the peaks that
rise upon every side. The miners, the pack
mules, the dogs, all form a despairing
group, allured to the fastnesses of the
Klondike only to find death.
This story of the power of gold Is real
istic and quite admirable. Only five floats
are yet under way.
The committee of thirty met yesterday
afternoon at Fiesta headquarters and
passed the following:
Resolved, That "All Fools' Night" shall
not be eonsiilered a part of fja Fiesta and
shall not have a place In the program.
The public is warned against canvassers
who are attempting to sell stationery as
official. The committee states that the
official stationery will be on sale next week
and canvassers will have credentials
signed by the Fiesta committee, counter
signed by the Los Angeles Printing com
pany. All stationery sold will be a benefit
to La Fiesta fund.
