LOCAL HOLDUPS
ON THE SOUND
Continued from Page One.)
"Yegg'" men, who are roaming about the
country leaving a wake of crime. They
are experienced In their line of work,
. absolutely reckless and prompt to take
' the life of anyone that Interferes with
their plans of proceeding or is slow In
. obeying orders. Southern California has
recently been tha scene1 of a series of
bold robberies and in several Instances
passengers who resisted were shot with
; out hesitancy. In most of the cases
three men operated, and from Imperfect
i descriptions In a general way answer
those of the men who, by their lawless
ness, are now active In the Northwest.
The "Yegg" men travel about the
country as tramps and hoboes, living
on focVl' stolen or begged and sleeping
around camp fires and haystacks rather
than stopping at the cheap lodging
houses and eating bad meals and free
lunches. They keep themselves free
.' from alllancea with other criminals, are
secretive as to their movements and
make but few friends among other
crooks,. They nre continually on the
lookout for opportunities to steal where
the danger to themselves Is not great,
but at times get bold and take big
chances to secure plunder. After plan
ning and carrying out a robbery they,
as a rule, take to the open country away
from the railroads, and posing as farm
laborers, sulk about until the efforts of
the officers have relaxed In their In
vestigations. The Ken Shot
- Tha man shot In Seattle was William
lartln, a longshoreman. The bullet
truck him over the left eye and plowed
a furrow along his forehead. The
wound was not dangerous, but bled
freely through the severing of some
mall arteries. Fred Day, the man shot
In this city, during the holdup, for re
fusing to hold up his hands when or
dered, was dismissed this morning from
'the hospital. His 'wound was at first
considered fatal, but Pay made a re
markable rally and Is now on the road
to recovery. His wound was almost
. Identical to the one which caused the
death of President McKlnley.
. " Polios roUowlar Clues.
The police are still following the clues
and facts In regard to the hold-up pub
lished In The Journal. More than a
week has passed and no circular has
been Issued outside of Che notice of a
reward. They expect In ths next few
days to Issue a poster giving an accurate J
description of the Jewelry lost and a
description of the men, which la to be
sent broadcast The detectives in the
employ of the street railway company
are still vigorously prosecuting their In
vestlgatlon and will continue until they
show beyond the shadow of a doubt that
It was either done by men who are now
In some other section, or If they belnag
to the city, untlj they land them in Jail.
They entertain the belief, as published
In The Journal, that the robbers were
desperate "Yegg" men. who were stran
gers In these parts, and left the country
as soon as practical after the holdup.

In the State Circuit Court this morn
ing Judge Sears, Judges Cleland and
George assenting, and Judge Frazer
absent, handed down a decision on the
demurrer In the sailor boarding-house
Injunction case. In which Smith and
White Bros, are the plaintiffs and S. M.
Mears and the other members of the
sailor boarding-house commission are
the defendants. By the decision the
court overrules 'the demurrer, hut does
not pass upon the law creating the com
mission, the main point of the ctontest.
It holds that the commission cannot ar
bitrarily refuse an application for li
cense without giving some legal rea
son therefor. Constitutional doubts as
to the legality of the act are lightly
passed over and conceded insufficient to
Invalidate it.
W. T. Hume, attorney for the plain
tiffs, asked and was granted a writ of
mandamus, to be returnable at 2 o'clock
tomorrow afternoon, a course advised in
the court's opinion.
The suit of Smith and White Bros,
was begun some time ago, and the
plaintiffs alleged that by the refusal
of the 8tate Commission to grant them
a license to operate a sailor boarding
house, they have been deprived of a
remunerative business, since early in
May. Their attorneys pressed upon the
attention of the court that the statute
infringed upon several provisions of
the. organic law, and the contrary view
was also earnestly urged.
Tne Decision.
"After a tareful examination of the
question, however," the decision con
tinues, "and recognizing some dissim
ilarity In 'the bases of our position, we
have concluded to. resolve any doubt
existing concerning the validity of this
legislation in favor thereof. " Believing
that any antagonism between a statute
and the oaganic law must be obviously
clear and. unmistakable, that the exist
ence of such conflict Is not to be lightly
assumed, that every presumption and
Intendment favor the validity of the
statute, In conformity with the theory
or the omniscience of the Legislature,
except where Its activities have been
repressed by the people themselves of
the state or the nation In their respec
tlve charters, and recognising the force
of those judicial utterances of our own
Supreme Court, which require certainty
beyond a reasonable doubt of the un
constitutionality of an act, before glv
lng utterance to such opinion, we have
reached a determination to give this
statute that effect which seems to have
been contemplated by those who con'
etructed' it, and which certainly accords
with correct commercial and ethical
considerations."
After reviewing the various stages of
the case, the court said of the charge
that arbitrary power had been used by
the Legislature In creating the com mis
slon, that a number of authorities were
on record to the contrary. Continuing.
Judge Bears said:
"Taking the admission of counsel, to
gether with these Interpretations of the
force of language employed in framing
sucii.conceasiQn. jub. apparent. lhatJJie
court must hold the action of the Board
of Commissioners to be arbitrary in
character. It must be clear
that whatever discretion may be vested
In the board, it cannot be exercised , in
the manner herein exhibited; that they
cannot refuse a license to one who has
brought himself within the plain re
qulremervts of. the statute without as
signing any reason therefor; that such
cbnduct is not contemplated by the
statute, and that a remedy by man
damus Is the proper as well aa the ade
quate corrective.
The Proper Remedy.
"This is our opinion as to the proper
remedy for the plaintiffs in this case
under the admitted facts and the law
governing the subject matter of the is
sues arising between the parties. As,
however, the first pleading in a pro
ceeding for mandamus is the writ, and
as no writ has ever issued In this
court, under the pleadings, our decision
Is at the most only advlsbry, but we
hereby indicate our willingness to Is
sue a peremptory mandamus upon the
filing of papers making a showing ap
propriate to these views."
W. T. Hume, attorney for the plain
tiffs, immediately filed an application
for and was granted an alternative
writ of mandamus, returnable at 2
o'clock tomorrow afternoon. The ap
plication alleges that the denial of a
license to -Smith and White Bros, ha
injured their business since May 24,
and that as the shipping season will
soon open, they will be further Injured
if the license is not granted. The court
allowed the application, and Mr. Hume
served the papers upon Attorney Henry
E. McGinn, representing the Board of
Commissioners, in the courtroom. Mr.
McGinn-accepted the service, and the
two attorneys. will meet before the court
tomorrow afternoon.

It wasivery amusing to hear Julius
