San Francisco, May 21. Dotying
counsol for tho uofonso to provo that
lio lied, Dotcctlvo Jamos Holms, star
wltuoss (or tho prosecution, threw
tho Calhoun trial Into an uproar to
day by leaving tho wltuoss stand and
shaking his fist In tho faco of Attor
ney Stanley Mooro.
Shortly after Holms had been put
upon tho Btand for cross-examination,
ho said:
"Stanley Mooro told mo that I had
dono tho best work ever dono for
tho United KUllroads In following
that Burns."
"Don't you know that you aro ly
ing llko a dog?" passlonatoly ex
claimed Mooro.
"I am not, and I daro you to provo
that I am," roturncd tho witness,
leaving tho chair and starting for tho
attornoy.
As soon ns tho bolllgoronts woro
qulotcd by tho court, Honey suggest
ed: "As tho witness has bcon charged
with porjiury, I suggost that ho bo
prosecuted. Mr. Langdon Is horo,
and I am euro that ho will bo willing
to allow Attornoy Earl Rogers to bo
appointed a apodal prosecutor In tho
caso."
A. A. Mooro, who had arisen,
turned his back to Honoy and eajd:
"May Ood holp ub It wo over havo
to nsk aft from tho district attor
ney's ofllco."
Then Attornoy Dyington, of tho
doronso, added a half-audible re
mark, which Judgo Lawlor Interpret
ed as an InBiilt to tho court, and
warned tho lawyer that such conduct
would not bo tolcratod.
Tho combatant attorneys, having
beotn quieted, and tho wltnoss having
roturncd to his sent, ho continued his
story.
"Since my arrival hore J havo boon
constantly shadowed liv itntor.tlvcs.
whom I think aro In tho employ oti
tho United Railroad!." )
Earl Itogora horo Intorposed an
objection, and tho court asked Honoy
what tho rolovnncy of tho statement
was.
"Wo want to show," Bald Honor,
"that thoro wns an nttompt mado to
bribo this witness not to testify."
Tho objoclon was overruled.
Holms, continuing, snld:
"I wns called unon tho tolonhono
by nn attornoy namoJ O'Nell. Ho bo-
Ran to toll mo Hint I could not got
tho money I wanted. I replied that
I hnd novor nsttod for any monoy,
nnd did not wnnt any from him.
"Again I was called up from tho
oluco of Attorneys Campbell, Mntson
nnd Drew, nnd told that I could not
get that monoy. I ropllcd tho aamo
as before"
"Hut did you kffow," intorposed
rtogors, "that thoro was a grnpho
phono nttnehed to that tolophono,
nnd thnt everything you snld was re
corded?" "Yo, I did know," shoutod tho
witness, "nnd you did not trap mo."
Holms then told of a conversation
with Wllllnm M. Abbott, of tho de
fendant's counsel. In which ho nl
lcgod Abbott said: "Somo ono ought
to Bhoot that Honoy."
Helms then told of having sent
away tho tnnn ho had shadowing
Hums under tho instructions of Ab
bott, and raid that ho had beon ad
vised to get under cover.
Then followed HolmB' charges
against Stnnloy Mooro, and Mooro's
ccninter-chnrgo of porjury. Holms

Frances, tho little daughter of Mr.

ly hurt yostorday, is in such condition
today that tho .doctors have groat
hopes of her -recovery. The accident
frss one of those unfdttunato affairs
that seem unavoidable. Mrs. Edward
Cross, who was very fond of tho llttin

anu wimoui any apparent causo tho
horso kicked, striking the little girl
in the forehead and crushing tho

Salem hospital where Drs. F. W.
Smith and W. II. Uyrd performed an
operation removing several rpllnters
of bone. Sho did not loso conscious
ness after tno accident until given an
anaesthetic before tho operation. Sho
seeiris strong this morning from tho
doctors' viewpoint and has a vory fair
ohapco of quickly recovering, her ago
und growing condition being a vary

EXCESSIVE TAXATION

today Is considering plans for a di
vision of tho existing systom of tax
ation, n an. effort to lift tho heavy
flnauclul burdons o his subjects. A
change Is domandod by tho pooplo,
and It Is tho belief of many of tho
king's advisers that nt least a reduc
tion oT tho civil list Is nocossary to
prevent an uprising.
Conditions that have beon offoctlvo
In squeezing from tho pooplo tho lost
ponny possiblo oxlst. Tho bankors,
who finance both tho state and tho

duties, which nro assessed between
provinces, and at city and villago
boundaries, aro so great as to ox
cludo extensive international com

to tho taxpayer, however, is tho as
