Jesse Potter Denies That
He Is Insolvent or
Incapable.
•■;;■ ■":;-■■ i
MILLER & LUX'S LOANS.
The Executor Shakes Down
His Indebtedness Some
Forty Thousand.
THE CASE IS SET FOR TRIAL.
Will Be Heard on Its Merits In the
San Mateo Courts Three
Weeks Hence.
REDWOOD CITY, Cal., Oct. I.— The
«rgument upon a demurrer to the allega
tions made in the petition for the removal
of Jesse Potter as executor of the will of
Charles Lux, which was in a manner
scheduled for to-day before Judge Buck,
did not take place. Garret McEnerney
came down on the morning train with his
mind and his papers made up not to
demur, but to formally answer the com
plaint. The several battalions of attorneys
lor the several interests and phases of
interests active in or merely watching the
contention had all been advised of this
intention and bo they remained away in
large numbers.
J. 11. Campbell of San Jose, the attorney
„T?ho stands to the front in behalf of Henry
'Lux of San Jose and all that is or may be
■opposed to Jesse Potter, was here, but of
ell the counsel for the petitioning heirs he
was here alone. George C. Ross of this
' city, associated with the counsel for the
respondents, was of course present, as
those immediately interested — Potter
tLux, Miller.
When court convened Mr. McEnerney
presented the answer for riling purposes,
a»nd said the respondent and his attorneys
■were ready to go directly forward with the
upon it 3 merits at the earliest day
<hat might be agreed upon— say October 14.
•Mr. Campbell had a prior engagement for
■*he 14th and so the suggestion was short
ened up to the 10th. Mr. Campbell thought
this had its objections also, and named the
21st, which was accepted at last and written
down in the books.
Sa the case will come on for trial three
weeks hence, when the petitioners will be
required to prove all their allegations —
that Jesse Potter is incompetent to attend
to such important business as the handling
of the big interests of the heirs ; that he is
as habitual drunkard ; that he is a profli
gate and insolvent ; that he received sums
of money from Henry Miiler amounting to
$150,tXX), which he spent in riotous living,
an gambling and with lewd women; that
he lacks integrity, and the sums of money
■which will come into his hands as executor
of the will of Charles Lux would be in
great danger of being squandered in simi
lar fashion ; that he is under the control of
Henry Miller and would use his office to
his (Miller's) interest rather than to that
of the heirs.
All of these things are specifically denied
in the answer filed by Mr. McEnerney. And
Jt is further denied (upon information and
belief) that Henry Miller ever claimed the
property of the firm as his own, as wa9
alleged. It is asserted on the contrary that
fee admits that he and Charles Lux were
4equal partners. It is denied further for
-Potter that he postpones and antagonizes
-■the settlement of the estate, or that his
continuing in the employ of Miller is in
consistent with his duties as executor.
The answer alleges that Potter is the
fieir-aMaw of Miranda W. Lux, wliOj as
tievisee nnder the will of Charles Lux, is
entitled to one-half of said estate, and that
be is, as devisee under the will of Miranda
\V. Lux, who was his mother, entitled to
the income of the estate during his life.
It alleges that by the terms of the will of
Charles Lux there was devised to him (Pot
ter) $25,000 and a tenth of the residue of
the estate in trust for Henry Lux and his
children, who are petitioners for his (Pot
ter's) removal. It denies that he received
from his mother, Miranda W. Lux, or from
Henry Miller, the surviving partner of the
firm of Miller & Lux, any sum of money
the sum of ?106,441 35 — which was
received by him in various sums and
amounts bince March 15. 1887.
But it goss on to say that Miller also
made loans and advanced to other persons
interested in the estate as follows: Miller
paid to the estate of Charles Lux out of the
assets of the partnership the sum of $364,
--645 71, of which the Bum or $150,000 was
paid for the purpose of providing for the
family allowance of Miranda W. Lux, the
■widow of the deceased; about $93,000 to
pay the fees of J. H. Campbell, the attor
hey of the German heirs of the estate,who,
With others, are petitioners for the re-
Bpondent's removal ; the sum of $32,000 to
pay on account of a legacy to Miranda W.
Lux; the sum of $19,200 to pay the allow
ance under the will to Henry Lux, one of
the petitioners hereto; the sum of $31,500
to the children of Henry Lux, petitioners;
the turn of $5500 to Philip Lax; the sam
of $5000 to Barbara Lux; the sum of $5600
to Dorothea Rohrig; the Bum of $5000 to
George Lux ; the sum of $1000 to F. S. Pott
as agent for the German heirs. :
Miller, it is asserted, has aIBO advanced
to certain of the heirs, legatees and de
viseeß of the estate various sums of money,
for which he holds their promissory notes,
as follows: Charles Lux, petitioner herein,
and Margaret Lux, children of Henry
Lux, $11,000; Lena B. Lux, daughter of
Henry Lux, a petitioner designated as Lena
B. Macßride, $50,000; Lizzie M. Pott, one
of the petitioners ana a daughter of Henry
Lux, $5372 20; Miranda W. Lewis, $15,000;
Martha A. W. Cook, $15,000, and Miranda
"W. Lux. $59,501 75.
These latter are allegations on behalf of
the respondent outside tiie allegations of
the petitioners. The whole ground will
probably be gone over once the case opens
in court on the 21st.

To-Day,
SIX NEW CARS ARRIVE.
They Are Exceptionally Strong

LOCOMOTIVES TO BE FIRED UP.
Work on the Line to Be Expedited

Train.
STOCKTON, Cal., Oct. I.— The first train
will pass over the tracks of the San Joa
quin Valley Railroad on Taylor street
to-morrow.
Six cars for the road from the Hammond
works arrived to-day at the Southern
Pacific yards. They are of the flatcar pat
tern, and, along the sides, the fact that
they belong to the San Francisco and San
Joaquin Valley Railway is proclaimed in
large, white letters. The cars are 36 feet
long and are of 60,000 pounds capacity
each. They are numbered 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11.
The Southern Pacific yardhands were
examining the cars with considerable in

According to present plans the big loco

the cars over to the material yards on

The beginning of the construction wort
on the line outside the city limits has been
delayed awaiting the arrival of these cars,
but will now go forward at once. With the
aid afforded by a construction train the
work from here to the Stanislaus River can
be pushed forward at a lively rate, and the
men in charge say that no time will be lost
in stringing ties along the grade and
placing the rails.
The Valley road situation here may be
summed up in a few words: Thousands
of tons of rails and over 200,000 ties are in
the storage-yards, together with other ma
terials. Nearly four miles of track is al
ready laid in the city, and fourteen miles
of line is graded toward the river. Loco
motives, cars and men are on hand, and
all this evidence of the solidity of the great
enterprise has come to Stockton in three
months.

Burglar Elliott's Record. Breaking Race
for San Qventin.
STOCKTON, Cal., Oct. I.— John Elliott
went through the legal mill on a record
breaking stretch yesterday, and received
a sentence of five years in the State's Prison
for burglary, in a manner which indicates
that San Joaquin justice is not entirely
sluggish.
Elliott was arrested by the police last
Friday, and on Saturday enough
evidence was secured to convict him on
any of several charges of burglary. Yester
day he had his preliminary examination
before Justice Parker, and was bound over
to the Superior Court. He was taken out
to dinner, and in the afternoon brought
before Judge Budd, and despairing of mak
ing a successful fight for liberty, entered a
plea of guilty. He received a sentence of
live years, and this evening is a full fledged
convict in San Quentin.
STANFORD'S NEW COACH
His Identity Still Kept Secret
by the Football
Managers.
It Is Announced That the Trainer
Will Arrive by the Middle of
the Month.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY. Cat,., Oct. L
When the football teams lined tip against
each other on the gridiron last evening
there were seventeen players in uniform
who were forced to watch the game with
other spectators. Besides this number
there are at least ten more who have been
given suits by the management who did
not appear last evening.
Joseph Field, '96, is the latest player to
prepare for the game. At the beginning
of the year it was generally supposed that
he would not turn out this season, but now
it is pretty well understood that he will try
for his old place as guard on the 'varsity.
The game yesterday was the best yet
played here, and good work was done by
several of the men. Dole, '9B, whose fine
running with the ball made him a formid
able Candidate for half last season, is doing
equally well this year, and will give the
other backs a hard fight for their positions.
"Jack" Reynolds was on hand for his first
game last evening. He played with dash
and vigor, making several long gains.
Frankenheimer also made good gains. In
fact the men are lully two weeks ahead of
last year's work of the same date. All this
augurs well for the future. So active is the
contest for places that no player can feel
sure that he will be able to retain any po
sition, and the result is hard individual
work all round.
Manager Eaton says the "coach's" iden
tity cannot yet be disclosed, and further
remarks that he will be out some time this
month. Speaking more definitely he said
that the gentlemen who would train the
j Stanford boys would be on the coast by the
| middle of the month, at which time the
; training table will be in operation.
The goal posts, together with side lines
I and yard lines, have just been put in the
I new football field. This puts the grounds
in good condition for play, and is all that
is to be done on them for some time,

year: Chairman, C. J. Pierson; secretary,
W. H. Irwin. Messrs. Cathcart, '96, and

the meeting that if Senator Perkins will
consent, his sift oi $100, which was to go
to the best speaker at the intercollegiate
debate, will go to the winning trio, share

A representative of the League will

THROWN OFF BY THE DRIVER.
Unsuccessful Attempt to Rob a Stage Near
Fort Bidwell.
CHICO, Cal., Oct. I.— An attempt to rob
the up-going stage was made by "Bud"
Heap, a youthful highwayman, near Fort
Bidwell to-day. Heap boarded the stage,
and after riding a short distance demanded
that Driver Ellery Phillips give him $5.
Phillips refused, and Heap, exclaiming
that he would have the driver's money
and Wells-Farco's besides, drew a dirk
and caught Phillips by the throat. The
driver was too quick for him, however, and
knocked him off the stage. Whipping; up
his horses he drove on to Bidwell and
swore out a warrant. A constable found
HeaD asleep in a barn a short distance
from the scene of the attempted hold-up
and placed him under arrest.
"Bud" Heap was at one time a little,
red-headed boy running around Chico. As
he grew up he chose bad associations and
gave his family, which was respectable
and well to do, great trouble. Some twelve
or fourteen years aco he was arrested in
Chico for illegal voting and served time
for the offense. His family removed to
Susanville and "Bud" got married there.
Later he threatened to kill his wife and
for this served two years in Folsoni. He
was released but a few months ago.
THE NORTHERN PACIFIC CASE.
Ives' Charges Against the Receivers to Be
Heard To-day,
SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 1. — Brayton
Ives, president of the Northern Pacific
Railroad, accompanied by the company's
general counsel, Silas W. Pettit and Colo
nel James MoXaughton, arrived in this
city from the East this afternoon.
To-morrow morning Mr. Ives will appear
before Judge Hanford in the United States
District Court for the purpose oi making
good his charges against Receivers Oakes,
Rouse and Payne, whose resignations are
now on file with the court.
Judge Hanford proposes to slight Judge
Jenkins of Wisconsin and will not recog
nize his appointments of the new receivers
for the Northern Pacific. To-night he is
sued an order directing Superintendent
Dickinson of the coast lines of the North
ern Pacific to take charge of all of the com
pany's property in tnis State until the re
ceivership matter is settled. He ordered
that none of the money earned by the road
shall go out of tne State until he directs.
It Is also the opinion of some that Judge
Hanford will force Messrs. Payne, Oakes
and Rouse to answer the charges preferred
by Ives, and that they will in addition be
brought up for contempt in failing to com
ply with the order of tne court.

The Coulterville Stage
Stopped by a Lone
Bandit.
ROBBED THE CASHBOX.
Three Sacks of Coin Taken
From the Wells-Fargo
Express.
HIS PLANS NICELY LAID.
The Driver Compelled to Open the
Iron Receptacle With
an Ax.
MERCED, Cal., Oct. I.— The Coulter
ville stage was held up again to-day near
the spot where it was stopped in August.
The stage had been driven upon a small
bridge over a gulch, when a man rose up
from the roadside and commanded Bert
Campbell, the driver, to hand down Wells-
Fargo's box. The robber was told that the
box was iron and was screwed to the bed
of the wagon. At this response the high
wayman reached down at his feet and pro
duced an ax and a monkey-wrench. These
he gave to Campbell and told him to go to
work.
In the meantime the three passengers
were ordered out of the stage. They were
J. T. Gove and Frank J. Comerly of San
Francisco and Jamea Cathri of the Red
Banks.
When the box wa9 detached the driver
was ordered to take it off to the side of the
road and open it with the ax. The lid was
soon loosened and the robber helped him
self to the contents, which consisted of
several coin packages, but of what value is,
not known. After this the stage was'
allowed to pass on. None of the passen
gers were molested.
Mr. Gove says this is his third expe
rience in stage hold-ups, and he took par
ticular notice of the robber during the
operation, the other two passengers being
compelled to hold the team. The man
was armed with a rifle. He spoke with a
German accent that was not feigned. In
height he was about 5 feet 6 inches, and
was apparently 40 years of age. He wore
a slouch hat, had on dark trousers and
was masked. He was cool, and his man
ner showed the calculation of the profes
sional.
Deputy Sheriff Stockird and Constable
Mack left for the scene of the robbery as
soon as the news reached here.
A French railroad company has ordered
clocks to be placed on the outside of every
locomotive.
