VOGT CASE NOT ENDED.

An Appeal From Judge Edgar's Decision to Be Taken. BERKELEY, June 2, 1899— Attorneys Chapman and Cllft of Oakland and Judge Edgar of the Berkeley Justice Court had a disagreement this morning over a point of law in the rase of Henry W. Vogt, and as a result the Oakland attorneys will pot out a writ of mandate to bring the case before the Superior Court for review. Vogt came up before Judge Edgar last week on a charge of battery upon Patrick O'Neill. O'Neill is over seventy-three years of age residing on Acton street To the satisfaction of the court it was shown that Vogt had assaulted the old man in a most cowardly manner and Judge Edgar ordered him to appear for sentence. As Vogt failed to put in an appearance on the date set Judge Edgar declared his bail forfeited. His attorneys filed notice of  notion asking that the order be vacated and this morning they were present in court to argue in its behalf. Judge Edgar's denial of the motion led to a long legal discussion, at the conclusion of which the Judge adhered to his decision. Attorney Clift entered an exm and declares that he will ask for a writ of mandate. DECLARES VOGT MEANT MURDER



(Just a side note - on census reports Patrick always lists his birthday as March 1845.  The article says he was 73 in 1899 which would make his birth year 1826 which is probably wrong.   He would have been 54.)

Hugh O'Neill 1 Secures a Warrant, Charging Serious Offense.

Procures Arrest- of Neighbor  for Alleged Attempt to Kill.'

BERKELEY, April 4.— Henry Vogt, who lives on Acton street, near Virginia, was arrested this evening and taken to County Jail on a charge of assault to commit, murder. The complaint was sworn to before Justice Edgar by Hugh O'Neill, a neighbor of Vogt. , O'Neill alleges that Vogt shot at him with a shotgun this afternoon, the charge tearing up the ground within two feet of him. He says that his dog chased one of Vogt's chickens out of the O'Neill yard, and that Vogt, seeing this, rushed into his house and reappeared with a gun, and shouting to O'Neill, "Now, I have you alone," raised it and fired. O'Neill declares Vogt shot to kill. Vogt has been in trouble before. About a year ago he was found guilty of battery on P. O'Neill, the complaining witness father. The present difficulty seems to be the outcome of neighborly friction. Vogt's bond has been fixed at $3000.
