CROWTHER OF DURKEEVILLE. Essays the Role of Svengall, and Attempts to Hypnotize the New Chairman of the Water Company. The retirement from office of the old water board, and the incoming of the new, on Saturday afternoon, was characterized by the interchange of courtesies between the retiring chairman and the new board that lent a happy aspect to the occasion. Mr. Chapman, the new President of the board, just before the old board adjourned sine die moved a preamble and set of resolutions appreciative of the efforts of the retiring President, W. J. Fay, in behalf of the stockholders of the company during his incumbency of the office the past three years. Mr. Chapman, in moving the adoption of the resolutions, said that this was no ordinary occasion—it was not an ordinary thing to adopt a vote of thanks to a retiring President of the company. But this was an extraordinary occasion. The retiring President had given more time and attention to the manifold interests of the stockholders than even they had a right to expect when he assumed the office. His faithful work in upholding their interests had never wavered—the board had just had an example of that (the refusal to countenance the sale of water to the Brea canyon oil people). The speaker had admired the sterling qualities of the man, and although it was difficult to suitably express the feelings of the heart at parting with his services, he moved the adoption of the resolutions as a slight testimonial of the esteem in which the retiring President was held. The resolutions were adopted unanimously. They were as follows: Whereas, This board, appreciating the valued services rendered the Anaheim Union Water company by its President, Mr. Fay; and, Whereas, Recognizing the large measure of time and professional talent he has given to the company without compensation; therefore, be it Resolved, That this board, in behalf of the company, hereby convey to Mr. Fay an expression of its gratitude for his loyalty to every interest of the Anaheim Union Water company, for the time he has so unselfishly devoted to it, and for his professional experience and services given without stint and without price. Be it further Resolved, That we hereby give an expression of our appreciation for the fair and impartial manner in which he has presided over the deliberations of this board and that we realize the som... Whereas, Recognizing the large measure of time and professional talent he has given to the company without compensation; therefore, be it Resolved, That this board, in behalf of the company, hereby convey to Mr. Fay an expression of its gratitude for his loyalty to every interest of the Anaheim Union Water company, for the time he has so unselfishly devoted to it, and for his professional experience and services given without stint and without price. Be it further Resolved, That we hereby give an expression of our appreciation for the fair and impartial manner in which he has presided over the deliberations of this board, and that we realize the company, as well as the Board of Directors, sustains a great loss in his withdrawal. Be it further Resolved, That the Secretary of this company be instructed to have a copy of these resolutions engrossed, duly signed and presented to Mr. Fay. The object of these very happy courtesies sat with bowed head, reflecting meditatively. At their adoption he arose and thanked the author of them, as well as the members of the board who had approved of them. He felt very deeply, he said, the effort to make it appear that any work of his had conducted to the welfare of the stockholders of the company. The welfare of the stockholders meant the welfare of the community. One cannot prosper without the other. He realized that he had performed but a title of what might have been accomplished for the good of the shareholders; yet he had gone as far as the bylaws permitted. He referred briefly to the necessity for placing the company's affairs in the hands of responsible manager who would give his undivided attention to the company's interests, and not have them rest in the hands of a directorate meeting twice a month, with three weeks intervening at times between meetings. He had enjoyed doing whatever work might be construed as being of benefit to the stockholders. The work was a duty which he owed partly to himself; it was as pleasant to him as it could have been of profit to the company. He trusted that in his retirement from the board it would be a case of "Never will be missed" [murmur of "No! No!"]. Generals die, and abler generals take their places; managers pass off the scene of action, and abler managers take their places. He hoped a better man filled the chair, and again expressed his deep appreciation for the manner in which the resolutions were prepared by Mr. Chapman and adopted by the board. Before the new board were invited to take their seats the old board met to complete such business as might be left to them to perform. Mr. Crowther of the Ditch Committee arose and stated he desired to report verbally— The chair—Will you please make your report in writing, according to the rule? Mr. Crowther—Am I out of order, Mr. Chairman? The chair—Your report should be made in writing, according to the rule? Mr. Crowther — The report isn't Complaint of Mrs. des Granges, relative to ditch running on the north side of her property, referred to Attorney Melrose. Mr. Murphy and Mr. Stevens, two distinguished-looking oil operators representing the Brea Canyon Oil company, appeared before the board, asking that water be furnished them for their boilers. They had four wells down 1000 feet, and, as Mr. Stevens said, "were up against the real thing," relative to the water question. The water in the canyon was mineralized so that it was unfit for boiler purposes. They desired from 20,000 to 30,000 gallons per day. This volume they desired to procure from the Santa Fe company, which has already a contract with the water company for furnishing it with water for its boilers at the oil wells, but they desired to first ask the permission of the board for this privilege. The chair said the company were powerless to comply with the request, much as they might wish individually to do so. The company had entered a similar agreement with the Santa Fe company a year ago, but could not take on any further agreements of the kind. The matter had been entered into with the Santa Fe people as a return for courtesies extended by it to the stockholders. Mr. Perris had informed the board at that time that his company would need 5000 to 6000 gallons per day; but his information was to the effect that they are taking as high as 50,000 gallons. Asking the Secretary, he was informed that the amount of water furnished the Santa Fe people last year was 930,000 gallons. The applicants might, he said, be able to make arrangements with the Santa Fe people; but the company could not undertake to furnish them water. Water would be scarce this summer, and even the shareholders would in all likelihood be limited in their supply. He had been in consultation with the attorney of the company, whom he called upon for a further statement of the merits of the case. Attorney Melrose pointed out the impossibility of complying with the request, and referred to the bylaws and the statutes dealing with the case. A short executive session followed, when the old board adjourned without day. Immediately thereupon the members of the new board took their seats at the table. There were present Messrs. Chapman, Pierotti, Cargill, Crowther, Rea, Bradford and Nebelung. Mr. Chapman was chosen chairman. He appreciated the honor, he said, and felt there was no little responsibility placed upon him. There was a year of hard work before the board. It was harder for him because he had to follow one who had filled the position so ably. But his administration would be honest, if not able. It would be his aim to do the very best for the interests of the stockholders of the company. For Vice-President, Mr. Rea nominated Mrs. des Granges, relative to ditch running on the north side of her property, referred to Attorney Melrose.

Mr. Crowther—Am I out of order, Mr. Chairman? The chair—Your report should be made in writing, according to the rule? Mr. Crowther — The report isn't worth being made in writing. It deals with Hickman's complaint against Brunworth. There is nothing to the man's complaint— The chair—If you are going to dismiss the complaint as not being sufficient to justify further consideration by the board, a motion to that effect may be taken down by the Secretary. Such a motion was accordingly made and prevailed, and Hickman's complaint went into the waste basket. Mr. Pierotti reported progress in the matter of the Vosburg ditch. Some of the irrigators on the line of the proposed ditch are at variance regarding their lines, and these should be straightened out before construction of the ditch could be taken up. The committee was continued. At this point L. B. Benchley entered the room. Mr. Benchley was elected a director last year; but owing to a broken ankle had to retire, and his son was appointed in his place. He had made a trip East, and this was his first appearance in nearly a year. He was very warmly received, and in reply said he congratulated the stockholders upon having their interests in the keeping of such an able directorate. Superintendent Sheppard's monthly report was read as follows: ANAHEIM. March 3, 1900. To the Board of Directors of the Anaheim Union Water Company—Gentlemen: I herewith submit a report of construction, general expenses, etc., for the month of February: Regular employes.....$360.00 Assistant zanjero.....42.00 Work on Anaheim branch ditches.....36.75 Cleaning North branch ditches..67.41 Repairing flume on Anaheim main ditch.....67.00 Mr. Crowther arose, and throwing out his chest, said that he had been elected to the position of manager of the Durkee property by the preceding board, with the understanding that he should hold the place until the new board selected his successor. The time was now come when that business could be taken up, and if the board chose to reappoint him he would consent to serve. Mr. Fay, who had remained seated near the chair, arose and said that the practice had been to leave all these matters over until the next meeting. It was unfair, he said, to ask the chair to appoint all the committees immediately upon taking his office. The matter of filling the position at the Durkee ranch might also, he said, be left over to the next meeting. Mr. Rea coincided in this view, and while Crowther cast his eye over in the table. There were present Messrs. Chapman, Pierotti, Cargill, Crowther, Rea, Bradford and Nebelung. Mr. Chapman was chosen chairman. He appreciated the honor, he said, and felt there was no little responsibility placed upon him. There was a year of hard work before the board. It was harder for him because he had to follow one who had filled the position so ably. But his administration would be honest, if not able. It would be his aim to do the very best for the interests of the stockholders of the company. For Vice-President, Mr. Rea nominated Mr. Pierotti. Mr. Crowther nominated Mr. Cargill. Pierotti declined, and Cargill was elected. W. H. Blennerhassett was elected Secretary without opposition. H. Cahen was chosen Treasurer. Mr. Crowther, who seemed to be reading off instructions to the new chairman, seeking to exert the baleful influences of a Svengali, so to speak, said, sotto voce, "Now, the next is the appointment of your committees." The Chairman after some consideration, named the committees as follows: Ditch Committee—Crowther, Rea and Pierotti. Finance Committee — Nebelung, Bradford and Cargill. Legal Committee—Rea, Cargill and Crowther. Mr. Crowther arose, and throwing out his chest, said that he had been elected to the position of manager of the Durkee property by the preceding board, with the understanding that he should hold the place until the new board selected his successor. The time was now come when that business could be taken up, and if the board chose to reappoint him he would consent to serve. Mr. Fay, who had remained seated near the chair, arose and said that the practice had been to leave all these matters over until the next meeting. It was unfair, he said, to ask the chair to appoint all the committees immediately upon taking his office. The matter of filling the position at the Durkee ranch might also, he said, be left over to the next meeting. Mr. Rea coincided in this view, and while Crowther cast his eye over in At the direction, lifting his eyebrows the mile, the whole list of committees was unanimous consent withdrawn. Mr. Fay arose again and said it was fair to pile up so much work on Mr. Crowther. It was too much to ask him to serve on the Durkee ranch, and he to be chairman of the Ditch Committee, and also on the Legal Committee. Mr. Crowther's countenance was overcome with a pale cast of thought. Crowther was coming to be a regular Moh-Bah—going for everything in sight. The board voted to take the annual ditch tomorrow (Friday), deluging and Rea to look after the mississariat. Mr. Rea said he had heard the irrigators on the north side had been irritating at night. How was that? He needed Secretary Blennerhassett replied that Zanjo Stone was running water at that only because the reservoir could hold the water that was coming in to it. He used only the surplus water to run to irrigators at night. Secretary Blennerhassett said the zanjos on the north side had got their mix, and asked that they be perked to begin a new run. Mr. Pierotti arose with a whoop, a savage with his war paint on, said that could not be done. Heained why the zanjeros had got gags mixed. On the last run, it apes, irrigators did not care to take water, because, as he said, they did say to the zanjero: "I think it's going to rain; don't." After the run had got by them, and no rain appeared, they wanted water, and the zanjeros had gone to them with the stream. This against the rules. Some irrigators got water out of their turn by this time; others had got it twice, and one, who were not onto the scheme, got it not at all. That's how the zanjos had got their runs mixed. Mr. Pierotti, and seemed to be it, for the board decided to notify zanjeros to adhere to the bylaws or would be fined or discharged. The matter of dividing the north district, giving Zanjo Stone one section Zanjo Porter the other, was referred to the next meeting. THE VALJEAN LIBEL CASE. Given to the Jury at a Quarter Past Four O'clock Yesterday Afternoon. The trial of the libel suit brought by Horace McPhee of the Santa Ana Blade against J. E. Valjean of the Plain Dealer of this city began in the Superior Court at Santa Ana on Monday morning. Judge Oster of San Bernardino county presided. One hundred and twenty-five witnesses had been subpoenaed, and it looked at first that the trial of the case would consume all of this week, and probably much of next. However, the defense shortened up matters on Monday afternoon by admitting the publication and circulation of the alleged libelous article, after vainly attempting by technical objections to interfere with the bringing out of this testimony by the prosecution. The case for the People closed abruptly, therefore, immediately thereafter. The defense then asked for a dismissal of the case, on the usual grounds, but Judge Oster denied the motion. Among the dignitaries in attendance upon the trial were U. S. Grant, lately unsuccessful candidate for United States Senator; Billy Hamilton, Senator Perkins' political manager; Milt Green, the Senator's brother-in-law; Jim McFadden, the Newport Beach chieftain; Judge Noyes of Riverside, Nestor Young of San Diego, and a host of others too numerous to mention. The visit of Hamilton and Green has also to do with the selection of a candidate in this district for Senator this Fall. The nomination goes to River-side county, and the names of several gentlemen have been mentioned for the place. Some people say the Riversiders will enter the Senatorial convention "split," when the San Bernardino warriors will combine on an Orange county man for the place. The next Legislature will do the work of redistricting the State. Both San Bernardino and Riverside counties love us so that each wants Orange county in the same senatorial district with it (the three are now in one district together). There are not lacking people in Orange county who favor San Bernardino, although 99 per cent of our people are shouters for Riverside first, last and all the time. These latter will go to the senatorial convention for the nomination of a Riverside man, provided the Riversiders come to the conference. This was all the prosecution desired. After placing Horace McPhee on the stand to prove his editorship of the Blade, she prosecution rested their case. "Were you acting as editor of the Blade in November, 1899?" asked McKelvey, in cross-examining. "I wasn't acting editor; I was the editor," replied McPhee. "Are you sure there was only one Senator Perkins at the time of the publication of this alleged libelous article?" "Yes, sir." "How do you know?" "For the same reason that I know there is only one President McKinley." "Do you know it of your own knowledge?" "I know it by common repute." The prosecution here rested their case. McKelvey moved for a dismissal, which the Judge denied, and the case stood adjourned until Tuesday morning. THE DEFENSE. Tuesday morning opened with James McFadden upon the stand for the defense. It was a surprise to see the man who has been said to have made the Blade appearing in a court of law as one of main witnesses against it. If reports be true, McFadden and McPhee have had a serious falling out, and his testimony would seem to go far toward establishing the truth of the statement. McFadden's testimony dealt mainly with McPhee's offer to publish 500 extra copies of the Blade during the campaign of 1897, and his (McPhee's) subsequent attempt to collect $250 from Senator Perkins thereof. McPhee was paid $100 after the close of the campaign, and subsequently went to McFadden in an endeavor to secure the remaining $150. This latter gentleman refused to pay, and a question of veracity arose between the two men relative to the promise of McFadden to pay the amount for Perkins. "I never had such a conversation with him," (referring to McPhee) said McFadden. "His statement is untruthfull," he continued, in reply to a question by Keech, relative to whether he had had a conversation with McPhee in which he had promised to pay the amount for Perkins. The friendship subsisting between McFadden and Perkins is like unto that of Damon and Pythias. McFadden is the Senator's business and political associate, and there can be no question that Perkins is under many obligations to him for political favors shown him in Orange county. Yet McFadden seems to think little of the favors he has shown Perkins. He regards Perkins with such unselfish devotion that islands. I found from him that least amount he would take for you, and be satisfied. This amends to pay for you. "I then called on J.W. Ballia Judge of Orange county, who wished that office at the same president and who knew the details of McKelvey in the matter in question formed Judge Ballard of the party McPhee's claim against you. He that you had already paid more proportion, and that the officer county, who were elected at no cost not just allow you to pay $100. Judge Ballard had the offended view, and also A.J. Crookes States Register, and T.J. Alex Ana Postmaster, with the reservation $100 was raised among them I close copy of receipt in full from & Co. for $300, which includes you had previously paid. This same matter satisfactorily to all." To this Senator Perkins is following day: "SAN FRANCISCO, James McFadden, Esq., Santa My Dear Mr. McFadden: I beg edge receipt of your valued favor!, informing me that the ome McPhee of the Santa Anna Event services he claimed to have through his paper during this campaign had been satisfactory payment of his demand in fur Ballard, Mr. Alexander, Mr., and others. "It was exceedingly generous of these gentlemen to volunteer Mr. McPhee's demand. As you knew nothing about the allegence or any service rendered newspaper. Had I been aware fact I should certainly have paid and when you informed me some he paid a claim which he thought me for an amount. I do not we understandation to have Evening Blade rest under that I had authorized a liability curred in my behalf and then I liquidated the same." Therefore you will kindly compliment to the gentlemen say that I greatly appreciate them in this matter and am willing them amount if they will act any event, please say that I co-steel their debtor, and will be time to have them call on me in derice personally or for part ice in our county or section of our remain, very truly yours." On cross-examination refer letter from McFadden to Peniten March 31, 1897, was broughed copy of letter was proof offered in evidence as follows: "SANTA ANA, Cal., Mar. Hon, George C. Persons, Senna Washington, D.C.-Dear Sir: I swore surprise a couple of days ago by asking of this town, editor of the Daily wife presented me with a note from a letter from yourself to McPhee asked me to draw my check $150, and turn the same over to him immediately." On reading your letter to Mr. found that he had stated to you that he issued him $250 on your account. The case. The facts are about as follows: "Prior to the commencement of Mr. McPhee was publishing the only in this town, which was owned by geon and a number of his Democrat and which plant Mr. McPhee had at his owners. At the commencement pignnate the owners came to Mr. McPhei him to make the Blade a free-silver he refused to do, stating that he we can, and would only publish a Repu!er I personally encouraged him in this..."

Registration for the city election April 9th closes on March 14th—25 before the date of the election. Mr. Burdette departs early for the East, and this will probably be the only time our citizens will hear this distinguished lecturer, to be boped that success will attune the efforts of those undertaking movement, and that we may shorten the pleasure of hearing him, young people of the Presbyterian church have the matter in charge. Detectives M. J. Bowler and J. J. Holley of Los Angeles arrived in town yesterday on official business. Mr. Holley preferred burglary charges against three boys living at West Ana-whose entered the Southern Pacific warehouse at that point at night stole a box of plug tobacco, valued $100. The two older boys admitted the case. Judge Shanley held the boys to apologize for their preliminary examination tomorrow (Friday) morning, when Attorney Williams is expected to prosecute the case. Since the rain the roads are fine and any canyon is in good condition for picnic. To make the day most enjoyable, Lewis & Zeus' tally-ho. Travelle, in "Poses Plastique," the Opera House to-night. 25 and cents. German Lutheran service in the ecclesiastical church next Sunday at 2:30 Sunday school at 2 o'clock. Great Travelle, Illusionist, Juggler, Shadowgraphist, to-night, Opera house. 25 and 35 cents. The trial opened with the usual sparring for an opening in the selection of a jury. At noon only nine jurors had been selected. It took an hour after noon to land the next three. The jury was composed as follows: J. E. Luther, J. W. Flagg, George C. Abbott, P. W. Swartz, G. E. Robinson, J. P. Hutchins, Ira Chandler, S. J. Arkells, S. T. McNeil, J. H. Moesser, Jake Ross, J. H. Barrett. The first witness was Joe Becher, a printer employed by defendant. He testified rather unwillingly at first, but the judge told him to answer up promptly, which instruction he afterwards complied with. Judge Oster also asked him a number of questions, following the thread of the story as indicated by the questions of the attorneys for prosecution. While the attorneys were evidently somewhat nettled at the unwilling witness, the Judge apparently had no difficulty in obtaining speedy answers. Becher admitted being employed by the defendant and being paid by him. He had gone to the office in search of work, and was given employment by the defendant. Ben Valjean and P. H. Turner, of Santa Ana, were next placed upon the stand. The defense interposed the same technical objections to questions by the prosecution that had been made in the Justice's court, but Judge Oster disallowed them. Judge Oster observed that he would countenance no attempts to delay the case. He did not care to have any trifling objections nor would he permit any leading questions. Keech smiled, and McKelvey thrust his hands into his pockets, and strutted pompously about the courtroom. If some one would put a feather behind McKelvey's ear, he would probably strut himself to death. When Judge Oster had summarily overruled a dozen objections by McKelvey, that gentleman arose and said the defense would admit the publication and circulation of the alleged libelous mark. Indeed, it did not take the case long to demonstrate that McFadden was in one camp, so to speak, and McPhee in t'other. The case has made a beautiful stink at Santa Ana.

islands. I found from him that $100 was the least amount he would take for his claim on you, and be satisfied. This amount I agreed to pay for you. "I then called on J. W. Ballard, Superior Judge of Orange county, who was elected to that office at the same presidential election, and who knew the details of McPhee's transaction in the matter in question. I informed Judge Ballard of the particulars of McPhee's claim against you. He at once said that you had already paid more than your proportion, and that the officers of Orange county, who were elected at that time, could not justly allow you to pay this last $100." "Judge Ballard had the officers interviewed, and also A. J. Crookshank, United States Register, and T. J. Alexander, Santa Ana Postmaster, with the result that the $100 was raised among them. I herewith enclose copy of receipt in full from H. McPhee & Co. for $200, which includes the amount you had previously paid. This settles up the matter satisfactorily to all. Yours truly," "JAMES MCFADDEN." To this Senator Perkins answered the following day: "SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 18, 1899. James McFadden, Esq., Santa Ana, Cal. — My dear Mr. McFadden: I beg to acknowledge receipt of your valued favor of the 12th inst., informing me that the claim of Mr. McPhee of the Santa Ana Evening Blade for services he claimed to have rendered through his paper during the presidential campaign had been satisfactorily settled by payment of his demand in full by Judge Ballard, Mr. Alexander, Mr. Crookshank and others. "It was exceedingly generous on the part of these gentlemen to voluntarily satisfy Mr. McPhee's demand. As you are aware, I knew nothing about the alleged indebtedness or any service rendered me by his newspaper. Had I been aware of such a fact I should certainly have paid the same, and when you informed me some time since he had a claim which he thought I should pay I authorized you to settle and draw on me for the amount. I do not wish any misunderstanding, or to have the editor of the Evening Blade rent under the impression that I had authorized a liability to be incurred in my behalf and then neglected to liquidate the same. Therefore you will kindly present my compliments to the gentlemen named, and say that I greatly appreciate their kindness in this matter and am willing to refund them the amount if they will accept it. In any event, please say that I consider myself debtor, and will be glad at any time to have them call on me if I can render them personally or the party any service in your county or section of the State. I remain, very truly yours, GEORGE C. PERKINS. On cross-examination reference to a letter from McFadden to Perkins, written March 31, 1897, was brought out. A copy of the letter was produced, and offered in evidence as follows: "SANTA ANA, Cal., March 31, 1897. Hon, George C. Perkins, Senate Chamber, Washington, D. C.—Dear Sir: I was treated to a surprise a couple of days ago by a Mr. McPhee of this town, editor of the Daily Blade. His wife presented me with a note from him inclosing a letter from yourself to McPhee. Mr. McPhee asked me to draw my check on you for $150, and turn the same over to him, as per your instructions. On reading your letter to Mr. McPhee I found that he had stated to you that I had promised him $250 on your account. This was not the case. The facts are about as follows: "Prior to the commencement of the campaign Mr. McPhee was publishing the only daily paper in this town, which was owned by Mr. Spurgeon and a number of his Democratic associates, and which plant Mr. McPhee had leased from the owners. At the commencement of the campaign the owners came to Mr. McPhee and asked him to make the Blade a free-silver paper. This he refused to do, stating that he was a Republican, and would only publish a Republican paper, I personally encouraged him in this order." NEW SPRING GOODS ARRIVING DAILY THE...

Max Jacobson 214-216 E. Fourth Street SANTA ANA, CAL. Some time ago Mr. McPhee came to me, stating that he was going to Sacramento, and that he wanted a letter of introduction to Mr. Hamilton, as he wanted to place the matter before him. I gave him such a letter to Mr. Hamilton, and upon his return he told me that Mr. Hamilton had given him $100. This is the exact condition of the situation and will be verified by the Executive Committee of the Republican Club. I have talked confidentially to some of the Executive Committee of the County Central Committee about the present situation, and they all concede that you have already, in making the payment of $100, been very liberal, and that we cannot consistently expect you to do more. This is my view of the case. The fight made by Mr. McPhee through his daily paper was a campaign sight, and not especially for yourself, and therefore we do not feel that you should be called upon to bear the whole expense of the campaign. However, I am satisfied that Mr. McPhee will meet that I am personally responsible for any failure of his to get the full $250, as you have authorized me to draw on yourself for this amount, and I am fully satisfied that Mr. McPhee is entitled to the money, but he was entirely wrong in his attempt to secure it in the way he did. I have not met him since his wife requested me as above stated, to draw on you for the amount, but am satisfied that he will be considerably disgruntled. I am sorry that he should be compelled to sustain the loss, but it was his own fault in making a rash proposition. Yours truly. JAMES MCFADDEN." Cash Harvey was the next witness—the bolsterous, rollicking, gallivanting, don't-give-a-cuss anarchist of the Delhi swamps. Cash doesn't care whether school keeps or not. He has been pizen to many men in many conventions. He is pizen on McPhee. He swore he went to see McPhee relative to Walter Robinson's candidacy for Treasurer in the last campaign. McPhee said he had just seen Roper, and he had informed him he was a candidate for the same office. Cash replied he had seen Roper a moment before, and Roper had informed him he would be a candidate for Supervisor. (Roper was a lightning rod man, praying for the bolt to strike him at almost any old place.) McPhee was predisposed to Roper, but on Cash informing him that that gentleman was in the race not for Treasurer, but for Supervisor, McPhee promised to look into the matter and do the right thing by Robinson. Cash went home, and the next morning had a line from McPhee, bidding him to come to the Blade office. Cash went, and McPhee informed him that Roper had just announced himself for had just seen Roper, and he had informed him he was a candidate for the same office. Cash replied he had seen Roper a moment before, and Roper had informed him he would be a candidate for Supervisor. (Roper was a lightning rod man, praying for the bolt to strike him at almost any old place.) McPhee was predisposed to Roper, but on Cash informing him that that gentleman was in the race not for Treasurer, but for Supervisor, McPhee promised to look into the matter and do the right thing by Robinson. Cash went home, and the next morning had a line from McPhee, bidding him to come to the Blade office. Cash went, and McPhee informed him that Roper had just announced himself for Treasurer, and so had King; but that if Cash would give him (McPhee) $50 he would throw both men down, and take on Robinson. This statement caused a sensation in court. Cash afterward said in the Rossmore hotel that the defense had subpoenaed Roper and King, and that both of them would tell about the same story. Billy Hamilton was placed upon the stand for the defense. He knew little about the case, and was soon excused. He knew McPhee; had received a letter of introduction from McFadden, presenting McPhee. The latter desired him to intercede with Perkins in order to get the $150 remaining due him, as he claimed. Hamilton referred him to Green, who later testified he would have to refer McPhee to Perkins. Milton Green was the next witness. He had seen McPhee when the latter went north a year or two ago in search among other things, of the $150 which he considered due him. After a short argument between counsel, the defense rested and announced that they would submit their case. This was agreed to, and court adjourned. Hamilton, Green and Oster took the Southern Pacific train to Los Angeles in the evening. The case was resumed yesterday, when McPhee went on the stand in rebuttal. Judge Oster returned from Los Angeles on the morning train. Several other witnesses were also placed upon the stand. A wire from the Sheriff's office at 2 o'clock was to the effect that argument would immediately begin, and that the case would probably be given the jury last night. The case went to the jury at 4:15. At 6:15 o'clock last evening, when the Gazette went to press, a special wire from Santa Ana announced that the jury were at supper, which was served to them in the jury room. They had been out two hours, and had not arrived at a verdict. INDUSTRIAL, MINING EXPOSITION AND CITRUS LOS ANGELES, CAL.
