12 MARRIAGES AT SEA VIOLATE BOTH THE SPIRIT AND THE LETTER OF THE LAW ARE BLOTS ON CIVILIZATION Supreme Court Knocks Them Out in Deciding the Case of Norman Against Thomson There wIM probably be another scramble to straighten up matters ln many families of Southern California as a result of the announcement that the supreme court ha. declared sea marriages to be Invalid unless they are solemnized with due regard to the marriage laws of the state. The decision is In a Los Angeles case, wherein Judge Allen rendered an opinion which the highei court has now affirmed. The lower court.= Judgment of the matter created consterna tion among those who have for years been in full enjoyment of all the bliss of married life on the strength Ot a ceremony per formed on the high seas, and In many such cases there were remarriages, or, rather, legal ceremonies performed. The case ln question was that of Homer Norman, who, on August 2, 1897, having barely come of age, took 15-year-old Jean nette' Thomson, without consent of her pa rents, on board a schooner at Long Beach, where they were married by the captain on the high seas. After living together eight days, the girl returned to her home at Downey, and the husband sued out a writ of habeas corput to. regain possession of her, at the same time commencing acilon In the superior court to have the marriage declared valid. The matter was warmly contested, the girl appearing as defendant through her father, and Judge Allen declared the marriage in valid. The case was appealed by Norman, and the following Is the meat of the supreme court's decision, as written by Commis sioner Chipman and concurred in by Jus- tlcea McFarland, Temple and Henshaw: "Plaintiff contends that the marriage is valid because performed on the high seas, and that it would have been valid If per formed in this state, because there Is no law expressly declaring it to be void. Defend ant claims that no valid marriage can be contracted ln this state except in compli ance with the prescribed forms of the law ot this state, and that citizens and residents cannot go upon the high seas for the avowed purpose of evading the law of this state and contract a valid marriage. The common law as to marriage is quoted by the plaintiff as being in force on the high seas on board American vessels. "The law of the sea. as lt may relate to the marriage of citizens of the United States domiciled ln California, cannot be referred to the common law of England. We can find no law of congress, and none has been pointed out by plaintiff, in which the general government has undertaken or assumed to legislate generally upon the. subject of marriages at sea. Nor, Indeed. c*n we lind ln the grant of powers to the general government by the several states, as expressed in the national constitution, any provision by w Blch the congress is em powered to declare what shall constitute a valid marriage between citizens of the sev eral states upon the sea, either within or without the conventional three-mile limit ot the shore of any state, and clearly does no such power rest in congress to regulate marriages on land, except ln the District Cf Columbia and the territories. We must look elsewhere than to the acts of congress for the law governing the case ln hand. Section 63 of the civil code provides that 'All marriages without this state, which cou'd be valid by th-i laws of the country ln which the" same were con'.racted. are valid 1 in this state.' The par:ies in the present case were residents of thtd slate and went upon the high seas to be married, with the avowed purpose of evading our marriage laws. They did not go to any other state or coun try to be married. They went upon the high seas, where no written law of which we have any knowledge existed by which marriage could be solemnlzeel. The rule, therefore, that the law of the place must govern does not operate, because there was no law of the place. "We And no case holding that parties domiciled ln a state may, for the avowed purpose of evading its laws, go where no law exists and there consum mate marriage ln violation of the laws of their domicile, and Immediately return and claim a valid marriage, ln all cases where the statutes have been thus circumvented, it was accomplished by a marriage valid ln the place where celebrated. The Gretna Green marriages of Scotland between cltl sens of England, are notable examples and they were upheld by ecclesiastical courts. But these marriages were solemnized in accordance with the laws of Scotland and therefore had legal sanction; and so also marriages ln this country of citizens of one state going Into another to avoid some disqualification prescribed ln the law cf their domicile. "It has been properly held that as mar riage is a natural right of which no gov ernment will allow its subjects, wherever abiding, to be deprived, If the parties hap pen to be sojourning ln a foreign country and under the local law there is no way by which they can enter Into valid marriage, they can marry in their own forms and it will be recognized at home as good. But in the case before us the parties not only went where there was no law authorizing the marriage, but they went with the in tention of Immediately returning to their domicile where they supposed the law would not admit of their marriage to en- Joy the fruits of their contract There is, we conceive, no ground of expediency, Sound policy or good morals upon wJtich the transaction can be given legal sanction. "We think lt results from considerations of reason and principle that unless It ap pears that this marriage was consummated under some recognized law the courts of this state should not declare lt valid; and we think the burden 4b upon the plaintiff to show such a law, falling in which hie sul I must fall. "We are thus brought to the only re maining question, "Was the marriage valid tested by the laws of California?' If this marriage can be upheld, it must be upon the sole grounds that there was mutual consent, solemnization by a sea captain and subsequent cohabitation as husband and wife for the space of eight days. There was no license, there was no solemnization by any person authorized by law to per form the ceremony and there was no mar riage by any peculiar mode of entering the marriage relations as provided by some jjartlcular religious denomination. To rec ognise such a marriage, we think, would grossly violate the spirit and letter of our statute and be a blot on the civilisation we f ro £ess. Our conclusion rests upon the Stmt ojt aajr. suUwrlxed solemnisation and would be the same if the parties were boil, ot full age. "We recommend that the Judgment ol the lower court be arrirmed." NOT YET SUBMITTED Water Oases Will Not Oo to the Court Until Today Noon Tht excessive heat of the day and Juflge Chapman's avoiraupois combined to cause an early adjournment of court yesterday afternoon, and as a consequence the argu ment in the water cases will probably not be completed until noon today. The exer tion of rapid speaking and hia tendency toward portliness gave Judge Chapman a somewhat tired feeling, and he therefore suggested that the cooler hours of the morn ing be employed for the completion of their work, so court will convene this morning at 9 o'clock. The day was employed exclusively by the company. Senator White spevking in tht morning and Judge Chapman in theaftei noon. Their efforts were directed almot. solely toward proving that the contrail ,vas not a lease, and that payment for tht property should and must be made before ihe company can be expected to surrende: It. Senator White formally Introduced fur ililng the application of the Los Ange-Ie- City Water company lor an extension of IU corporate existence. Attorney Scott there upon asked the similar privilege of filing the incorporation articles of the Consolida ted City Water company. Counsel for tht company had no objection to this, but wanted it distinctly understood that noth ing further than the filing*,% those articles had ever taken place, as ln order to beccir..-. effective they required the Investment o! 42500 ln "war tax" stamps. The Consolidated City Water compan> will therefore not assume the dignity of a corporation until the price comes down. BY IMPERIAL DECREE Does Ferdinand Habl Claim a Bight to Certain Money Certain money. In amount said to be about JIOOO, left by one Joseph Stohr, who died ln the summer of 1898, hos been the cause of a protracted litigation ln the courts of Austria, and now becomes the ground for contention in the. superior court of Los Angeles county. The case tiled yesterday is entitled Fer dinand Habl against the German-American Savings bank of Los Angeles and Public Administrator Frank M. Kelsey. The plaintiff alleges that ln the summer ol 1898 Joseph Stohr gave him aII right and interest In certain deposits made by said Stohr In the German-American Savings bank, turning over the hank book and all record of the deposits and such Wthdrawals as were had. Subsequently Stohr died and the court designated the public adminis trator as the proper person to handle his estate. He refused to recognize Habl's claim to the money, and Stohr's family, who were in Buchau, Austria, also contest ed the validity of the gift. Habl thereupon brought suit ln the imperial royal district court of Buchau, was granted Judgment and successfully sustained his case ln the imperial royal supreme court of Bohemia, apparently the court of final recourse ln that country. The latter decision was rendered in July of last year and Habl now prays judgment ln the superior court for $1000 and interest from August 1, 1893. SUPREME COURT DECISIONS Judgments of Lower Courts Affirmed in Two Cases ln the case of Henry P. Wilson against the California bank the supreme court has affirmed the judgment of the lower court- The plaintiff sued to quiet title on a pece ot iand secured by sheriff's deed. The bank claimed title by right of a subsequent sher iff's deed on the ground that certain docu ments In the proceedings by which Wilson secured his deed were not recorded. The superior court held that plaintiff's title was gooeS\ andi the supreme court now affirms and denies the motion for a new trial. With reterence to the statute bearing on unre corded documents the court says: "That section refers only to those holding from or under the mortgagor, and a purchaser at a sale for street assessment or tax is not within that class." In the case of the Peerless Glass company against the Pacilic Crockery and Glass company, a suit to collect a disputed ac count, the supreme court also affirms. One point ln this case is a claim by defendant for "freight allowance of 74 cents." The court held that this could not mean 74 cents on the whole bill of goods, amounting to several carloads, nor would it be reasonable to consider it 74 cents per hundred pounds. This wording, which appeared in a tele gram claimed to be a contract, was there fore adjudged to be no contract whatever, and was not considered in the decision, which is in the plaintiff's favor, excepting as to damaged goods. FALSE IMPRISONMENT Officers Talamantes and Baker Charged With a Seriou,s Offense What was at first regarded as a Joke may turn out to be a rather serious matter be fore the parties concerned are through with it. Those most interested ln the affair are Special Officers Talatmantes and Baker, and if the story told be true they certainly have placed themselves ln a position where they may soon have to take a dose of their own medicine. It is said that some time ago Talamantes and Baker arrested two Mexicans out in Ballona township and without the author ity of a warrant or the issuance of a com plaint brought them to jail. The men were confined In prison for two or three days without a charge being preferred against them, and were then released without even an explanation. Naturally such treatment did net "go down" without leaving a bad taste in the mouth, and the Mexicans began to seek some means of redress. Their In vestigations resulted yesterday In the ar rest of the officers on the charge'of false Imprisonment. The warrant was Issued from Justice Bryant's court ln Ballona township, and was served early yesterday afternoon by Constable Slmonds, who final ly decided not to take them Into custody upon their promising to appear In Justice Bryant's court this morning for arraign ment. What will come of the occurrence Is dif ficult to predict. THREE DIVORCE SUITS Two Decrees Granted, More Testimony Required in the Other Case Gertrude Slmms was yesterday granted a divorce from her husband, Charles Slmms, on the ground of desertion. The tes timony developed that Slmms had formerly worked for Newell Brothers, plumbers, and they are said to be very anxious to get hold of rhe man, claiming that ln departing he took a number of their tools with him. Mrs. Slmms alleges that her husband represent ed to her during their courtship that he was a prosperous contractor and possessed of j means sufficient to make then ormforts LOS ANGELES HERALDt SATURDAY MORNING, AUGUST 13, JB9B Baking Powder Most healthful leavener in the world.

RED CROSS Workers Wanted to Sew on Hospital Sheets—Mite Boxes Hospital sheets and pillow cases will be made today at Red Cross headquarters and seamstresses are wanted to asstst lr the work. The Red Cross of Oakland, Alameda and Berkeley will provide lunches for all th< men who sail for the Philippines on th. Scandla. Each lunch will include steam,v chicken, cold ham, hard-boiled eggs, bread, butter and three lemons. The 3600 lemon? Mrs. Stephens telegraphed for were for this purpose. The local Red Cross will ship al! the lemons which a generous public will donate for the boys in blue. By some hocus-pocus, which nobody seems to understand, Capt. Steeere's Bat tery D failed to receive the mess tents sent them, though they were marked with a red cross and large lettering, saying where they were from and the name of the battery. They are sailing over the wide ocean te Manila, where they will shelter other sol dier boys from the sun and rain of the tropics. Four more tents have been or dered of similar dimensions. Two door?, four windows and a fly will be sent when finished. Edward F. Lamm proposed some time ago to give $250 to furnish contribution boxes to be placed in public buildings, sa loons and other conspicuous places, for contributions for the Red Cross, and ln th' event of the war's closing, for a Red Cross free bed ln the Good Samaritan hospital.
