Marshal Seagle's Cm Continued Another Day Jis- Special filipatoh to Tua Beal San Francisco August The United States Circuit Court wae officially informed to-day that the charge of murder against Justice Stephen Field had been dismissed by a Stockton Court Judge Sawyer accordingly dismissed the habeas corpus proceedings in tiie case of Justice Field and said: are glad that the prosecution of Mr Justice Field has been dismissed founded as it was upon the sole reck less and aa to him manifestly false affidavit of one whose relation to matters leading to the tragedy aud whose animosity towards the Courts and Judges who have found it their duty to decide agaiust her and especially towards Mr Justice Field is part of the judicial and notorious pubiio history of the oountry It was under circumstances aud upon a sole affidavit produced especially after the Corouer'e inquest So far as Mr Justice Field Is concerned it was a shameless proceeding and as estimated by the Governor of the Conmiouwealth if it bad been further persevered in would have been a lasting disgrace to tbe State While a Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States like every other citizen is amenable to the laws he is not likely to oommit so grave an offense as murder aud should he be so unfortunate as to be unavoidably involved in any way in a homicide be could not afford to escape if it were iu bis power to do so and when the act ia so publicly performed by another as in this instance and ia observed by so many witnesses the officers of the law should certainly have soma little pains to ascertain the facts before proceeding to arrest so distinguished a dignitary aud to attempt to incarcerate him iu a prison with feloua or to put him in a position to be further degraded and perhaps assaulted by one so violent as to be publicly reported not only then but on Dumerous previous occasions to have threatened his life are extremely gratified to find that through the action of the Chief Magistrate and Attorney-General a higher officer of law we shall spar' the necessity of further inquiring as to the extent of the remedy afforded the distinguished petitioner by the constitution and laws of the United States or of enforcing suob remedies as exist and that the stigma oast upon the State of California by this hasty and to oail it by no harsher term ill advised arrest will not be intensified by further prosecution since the State proceeding has been dismissed the petitioner be discharged and the writ of habeas corpus dismissed" THE CASE OF NEAQLB The ease of Deputy Marshal Neagle was also taken up in the Circuit Court counsel asked the Court to set a day for the taking of testimony in the habeas corpus proceedings The counsel representing the State urged that the taking of testimony was unnecessary until the row relating to jurisdiction was settled Judge Sawyer announced that the witnesses should be brought forward and the law points argued at the same time As the Counsel could not agree upon a time for hearing the case tiie matter was postponed until to-morrow Steen UioiauiK Ban Fbanoiboo August 27 'qk witness I do not know now that be is a do yon think he

dismissal as it was because the proseeutiou had not proven that the defendant was not a California Indian who are exempt from the vagrancy law The Court had dismissed the Strauss vagrancy case on that

immense amount of business that is done there The building is a three-story brick and every department from collar to garret is constantly rush-d with business Ntariy one hundred are employed the year round and three thousand pounds of candy are turned out daily- It is the largest establishment of the kind on the Paciuc coast Three thousand pounds of oandy every day makes a mountain of sweetmeats but it melts away as fust as snow about as soon as it is put upon the market Tbi9 is becoming a nation of candy eaters end even the men are growing as fond of the toothsome caramels as the women are- It is a common thing to step iuto the office of a merchant and find him munching upon candy To a great extent it is driving out the habit of tobaoco ohewing Of course the Sacramento people du not consume all of this great quantity which amounts to nearly one million pounds a but it is shipped all over the Pacific coast Horne of it goes away un in the Northwestern Territories and a portion is sent down south to Arizona and New Mexico kind of oandy lias the largest salo! a reporter BRked Herman Fisher this morning as he was escorting him through the establishment that is hard to was tho

Arizona consume the most of that sort of The house shipped a great truck-load of fancy candies to Bun Francisco on Monday It ia a most interesting sight to witness the process of making the candy from the time the raw material is thrown into the kettle until it is packed in neat paper boxes ready for shipment Just to the left of the entrance to the mam store the Fullers are fitting up an attractive sample room with glass-covered boxes or bius ranged around the walls The shipping department is a busy place where a number of men are kept at work constantly filling orders from abroad The room is 160 feet in leugth by 20 in width A number of girls are kept at work all the time in the packing room placing the candy in showy tissue paper trimmed boxes The mixing room is a large department where one man does nothing but put up what ia known as different grades being thrown into immense bins aud then stiried up together In what is described os the cream room is where all the finer grades of candy are made where they turn out those delicious chocolate creams caramels etc which the girls always buy to take to the matinee The copper kettles are bright as the sun and the floor is as white and clean as a tidy kitchen They have in use there what they call a mixing machine of their own invention in which the ingredients which go to make up the candy are stirred by paddles run by machinery it saves a great amount of manual labor In the engine room is a great steam boiler and near by is a Westinghouse engine of sixteen horse power This machinery runs the scores of belts winch go all over the establishment to set the various wheels in motion Among ths machines is one for grating cocoanuts popping corn and roasting peanuts Two men are employed to make the common stick candy of which

Intaiesling Case on Trial Police Court To-day In the Frank Eddy and His Plans Counterfeiting For Mea Wbo Claim Bare Bmb Asked Xa atilil Ilint livery available apace In tbe Police Court waa taken this morning when the vagrancy oase of Frank Eddy of the Law and Order League force of detect-vea waa called for hearing The attorney for Eddy Hiram Johnson had demanded a jury trial and a gpod part of the audience waa composed of citizens whose names appeared on tbe venire Clerk Larkin was progressing swimmingly in calling the names when Johnson who waa listening intently addressed the Court honor I thiuk we want a jury waive that and leave the case entirely to the The announcement rather astounded the officials but Hart attornoy for the prosecution had presence of mind to say that he was willing It was learned afterward that Johnson's objection to the jury was that the venire contained the names of a number of saloon keepers whose ttelinga may have been antagonistic to the detective legion The case was ordered to pro ceed THE FIRST WITNESS The first witness called was officer Henry Carroll When sworn the officer testified that he knew Eddy about a year that in alt that time he did not notice him engaged in any work while on night watch he saw him on the streets near Third anfi Third and and Second and streets from 9 o'clock at night to 3 o'clock in the morning Hart asked witness if he knew Eddy had any lawful business and witness was about toJ relate a conversation which occurred at Third and strets when Johnson objected on the ground that the question was not germane to the case The Court ruled that the question was permissible and Carroll utated that Eddy had said he was en gaged in the detective business in the southern country you ever seen him in the company of known thieves or vagrants asked Hart have seen him in company with the Strauss boys of Woodland and Cone who I believe calls himself a detective" Johnson asked witness if he did not have a conversation on 1 street between Sixth and Seventh during the trial of the Chinese cases during which witness had threatened to kill Eddy Carroll denied that he had ever held such a conversation He remembered having told Eddy however that if he continued with Cone much longer he would either be wearing diamonds or be in jail Johnson subjected the witness to sev eral pointed questions as to his feeling toward Cone to which Hart objected Johnson stated that he intended to prove by these witnesses that there was A CONSPIRACY ON THE PART OP THE POLICE To down Cone and his detectives He asked witness if hs knew anything of such a conspiracy but witness replied that he had no feeling in the matter and did not know of any on the part of the Chief of Police Carroll said that he first heard of Eddy Ust Fall when
