RENO EVENING GAZLTTE PAGE RVE. THURSDAY, JULY 30, 1908. STOCKTON GIRLS SAID TO HAVE DEEN THIEFTAKES HUNDRED FAT CHICKENS EXPERTS GIVE EVIDENCE THAT MAY HELP CROWLEY TO SECURE FROM COUNTY HOSPITAL ILL FORCED INTO HOUSES OF FAME AT TRUCKEE DAMAGES Wagon Tracks Only Clue; Officers on Trail The General Demand of the Well-Informed of the World has always been for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; a laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because its com-ponent parts are known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action. In supplying that demand with its excellent combination of Syrup of IHgs arid Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for its remarkable success.

That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-informed. To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine manufactured by the California Fig Syrup only, and for sale A chicken thief. last night entered the chicken house at the eun- ty hospital after breaki.ng a lock on the door and carried away just Thought They Were Going to Lake Tahoe to Take Positions as Waitresses KM) fine fat spring chickens. He used a wagon to haul the chickens away and It Is believed tha the thief was some fellow-residing out-. side of Reno.

Late yesterday afternoon Judge Orr, after listening to "arguments and consulting authorities on the question of the proposed amendment io the complaint which amendment embraced the co-employe liability law of California, which holds the employer responsible for any injury any employe may suffer by reason of the negligence or carelessnes of a co-employe, refused to allow the amendment on the ground that it would set up a new cause of action. Summcrfield immediately introduced in evidence an affidavit of A. W. Gibbs, which states that Gibbs was superintendent of the Utah Construction company at the time of the accident.

The introduction of this affidavit also called for a prolonged discussion 'by the attorneys in the case on the objection of the defendant. Judge Orr finally allowed the affidavit in evidence. The vital question involved is whetlHer Crowley will be able to prove that Gibbs was a vice-principal or of the company. It is 'anticipated that a motion fo-a non suit on the grounds that it hi iccn shown from the evidence of the r'aintiff tV.at the injuries suffered hy Crov.ley resultant from the of a co-employe, whi under fio laws tKv state, does not the injured person to recover Expert testimony by many physicians of Ails city was introduced today- by the plaintiff the damage case against the Utah Construction company to illustrate the permanent injuries resulting to Qrowiey from the effects of being precipitated from, the broken, trestle at Chilcott and buried beneath the debris of the gravel train which caused the trestle to c.ollapse. Drs.

Kistler, Tyson, Pickard and Lewis testified to examination made of Crowley after the accident and stated that the fingers and thumb of one hand were permanently injured, that there is a lateral curvature of the spine, evidences of a fracture of the left leg and also a fracture of the right ankle. The arch of one of the feet is broken down and the foot will always be flat. Attorney McMillan conducted one of the closest cross-examinations ever heard in the district court when the physicians were turned over to him by Attorney Summerfleld in an effort to break the testimony of the physicians in regard to the permanent effects of the injuries suffered by Crowley. Dr. Myers, one of the most prominent physicians of Salt Lake, has been subpoenaed by the construction company and will give expert testimony i.n regard to Crowley's Injuries on the part of the defense.

Peach Ice Cream Today The. Stockton Mail prints a story to the effect that young girls are being enticed from Stockton to Truckee and forced to enter houses of ill fame against their will. A most vigorous denial is made by the Truckee Republican. Following is the story that appeared in the Mail.

The two girls were under the surveillance of a. woman who watched them like a hawk and was deaf to their subs and pleadings to be allowed their liberty.

She had taken what little money they had and had told them stories of fearful danger on the streets, but absolute safety in the house. "The man, roused to indignatio.n by the boldness of the atrocious deed, informed the woman that the two girls must be released." She at first flatly refused, but finally consented when it became evident that the man was in earnest and was in no humor to parley words. A little collection was taken for the girls and they were sent back to Stockton. "From what information) can be gathered, it seems that a man or a woman' some weeks ago came to Stockton and induced a dozen, girls to agree to work as waitresses in Lake Tahoe resorts. Attention was called to the fact that the hot weather was causing a great influx of people to the mountains; that it was difficult to secure sufficient waitresses, and that for this reason wages had materially advanced, "A dozen girls were secured.

"The two girls who have been rescued protested vehemently, but it is said that the others were finally induced to accept their fate. "The police h'-re have been notified of the obtainable- facts in the case and efforts are being made to discover who is responsible for the enticing of the young women and away from this city wit'i false promises of honorable employment.
