POPULAR BUSINESS MAX IS BANQUETED BY ASSOCIATES Frank Ballard, alias Alan. Dale, an ex-convict, was tried before a jury in Judge Diyine's court 'yesterday on a charge of robbery. The jury was out only ten minutes. Ballard held up Thomas Cronin. an old man, outside a saloon on Commercial street, near Kearny, on October 19 and took a gold watch from him. The prosecu tion was weakened by the fact that Cronin had left the city, but his evi dence taken at the preliminary hear ing was read. Ballard will be sen tenced On April 5. Ballard's convictipn has given the greatest satisfaction to the Police De partment, as he was looked upon as one of the most dangerous crook3 in the city. He has* been known for years as a "knockout drops artist" and about a year ago he escaped con viction on a charge of having such drops in his possession, Judge Cook giving a decision that the ordinance under which the charge was made was defective. Ballard has already served three terms in State prison. Is'an Ex-Cbnvlct and Has Been Known for Years as a User of Knock out Droj>s.

In the main building are two basins without vents and one Is used at such Infrequent in tervals that the trap Is dry. The roof Is leaky and on the middle jioor the en tire side of one wall W^so drenched from the rain that all of the plastering has been loosened and the blackboards have been warped out of place. The lower rooms are dark and electric lights are necessary on cloudy days. The classrooms occupied by the youngest pupils are extremely dark.

The California State Board of Trade is arranging for a royal excursion of California merchants, manufacturers and producers to St. Louis. A special train will be rHn under the manage ment af the California State. Board of Trade. about the middle of May, when the Louisiana Purchase Exposition will be well under way. The expectation is that a large num ber of representative men of this State will take the trip, the purpose of which is to make at St. Louis a demonstra tion for California and also to afford an opportunity to journey to and from and view the exposition attractions un der the most favorable and agreeable circumstances possible. The Board c-f Trade "has selected the middle of May as tha time for starting because the weather will then be de lightful in St Louis and overland travel will be pleasant. Round trip tickets will be $67 50 each, first class and ninety, days' time will be given to return, so that the party going in a. body may re turn at leisure individually. Choice of routes returning is also given without extra charge. Secretary L. M. Fletcher of the Cali fornia State Board of Trade is mak ing the necessary arrangements, and reservations should be made with the board as early as possible. Mr. Fletch er's long experience as a railroad man! makes certain that the excursion will be well handled. All. the details for the third excur sion in this State of the California Pro motion Committee have been arranged. An extra Pullman car has been ordered to- be attached to the train at Los An geles and about twenty-live prominent men from that place will accompany the party on the trip to San Pedro, San Diego, Santa Ana, Riverside, Red lands and Pasadena, covering two days' travel. There will be included in the party representatives from the Sacra mento Valley Development Association, the California Central Coast Counties Improvement Association and the San Joaquin Valley Commercial Associa tion. Holders of tickets may make berth reservations on presentation of tickets at the headquarters of the committee, 25 New Montgomery street, to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock. It is particularly requested that those desiring' to join the excursion who have not yet regis tered do so at once.

The result was a striking parallel to the case in which a fortnight ago Millionaire Peter Van Vlissinger practically demonstrated that under police pressure a boy named Wiltrax had given false testimony, leading to the conviction of the boy's father, for murder. i ¦To-day's instance c-f j'OUthfuPunre liability under oath was in the case of William McCarty and four Polish young men, on trial far murder, the ¦witness being a little girl, Apollinia Starlsta, who first gave direct, straightforward, eye-witness testimony, apparently es tablishing beyond question the guilt of the men, and then repudiated her sworn evidence. In explanation c-f the remarkable change of front the child declared that she had been instructed how to testify by the widow of the murdered man. Charges against the prisoners were withdrawn by the State's attorney, the five men walking Out of' the dock free by order of the court.
