Ruiz, a Mexican, 17 years of age, was shot and killed at 6 o’clock to-night by Con- stable George Roberts of Mission Town- ship. The shooting occurred at FEucalyptus Canyon on the Spring Valley road, where Roberts had been sent to see to the rebuild- ing of the bridge torn down by Ruiz. Trouble had occurred before between Ruiz and the authorities over the road, the Mexican trying to prevent the county from establishing a road through the can- yon on land claimed to be owned by Ruiz’ employers, the Manning family. Ruiz, some weeks ago, inclosed the road with a wire fence, and with a Winchester defied passers-by to cut the wires. Con- stable Roberts removed the fence, and early this month Ruiz tore down the bridge, rendering the road impassable. Roberts arrested him for malicious mis- chief, and he was under a $500 bond to ap- pear for trial. Roberts was ordered to rebuild the bridge, and went to-day with Herbert Eaton and two teamsters to the spot. Roberts and Eaton arrived first, and while Eaton was attending to theteam the shoot- ing occurred. Roberts, who came in immediately and gave himself up, told the story as follows: “Ruiz came up on horseback and asked me what I intended todo and I told him put in the bridge. He said, ‘You can’t do that.’ Itold him I would, and he re- plied that the bridge would never be re- built. I told him the timber would be there in a few minutes, He became very excited, jumped off his horse and came for me. Idrew my gun and told him to stand back. But he came on and I hit him over the head with the butt end of my pistol. Then he came for me again and Ishot him. Eaton came up then and I told him what had occurred and that I would come into town and give myself up.” Eaton said he was not present at the shooting, but heard high words regarding the culvert, and the pistol shot. Running to the scene, he found the Mexican breath- ing his last and Roberts standing with his smoking gun. Roberts did not try to get away, and in fact suggested giving him- self up. Ruiz was shot just above and behind the left ear and lived only a few moments, The two teamsters were left with the body and Roberts and Eaton came to the city, where the former gave himself up, surren- dering his pistol. He said he was sorry for the act, but did not know whether Ruiz was armed or not and acted only in self- defense.

Not a Single Clew to the Where- abouts of the Robbers Yet Obtained. REDDING, CaL., July 9.—There seems to be now no doubt that the highwayman who stood up the Redding and Bieber stage on ‘‘Bullskin” hill Sunday night was Jack Brady, the bandit. A man by the name of Chandler, who is traveling in the interest of the Order of Foresters, saw Brady or, the man who an- swered to bis deseription, about two miles this side of the hold-up going toward Mor- ley, about two hours before the hold-up took place. Chandler at the time thought the man looked like Brady, but did notsay anything until he arrived in this city and heard of the robbery. Then he was con- vinced he had seen Brady, and there is no doubt the bandit was then making his plans for the hold-up. It will not be definitely known here un- til Thursday just how much money the rob- ber secured, but roughly estimated it isin tie neighborhood of $500. The fact that it takes the stage three days to go to Fall City and back is the reason for the delay in ascertaining the amount that was in the boxes. One of the mailsacks was found last night a few yards from the spot where the stage was help up. It had been cut open and everything taken out and scattered about, but the registered mail was untouched. The robber was probably frightened away before he had a chance to open it. The registered gackages are now in the possession of the post- master at Oak Run, and are expected here in the morning. Sheriff Houston and posse and Marshal Gard are out searching for the robber, but up to now no clew has been found of him. The passengers who were on the stage, as well as the driver, think it was Brady, and the officers here generally are of the same opinion. The report of a Chinaman find- ing a dead body near the scene of Brady's shooting ground on Clear Creek is not true. . San Luis Horse-Thieves Sentenced.

Labor Commissioner Fitzgerald has ceived a severe setback in the shape of a letter from Controller E. P. Colgan which reads: I am in receipt of your letter of the 25th inst. regarding salariesof assistants, contingent expenses, eic., of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. After & careful inspection of the law and in view of recent opinions rendered by our Attor- ney-General in cases almost parallel, I am of the opinion that under the act of 1889, amendator; of the act creating the bureau, I will be justi- fied in drawing my warrants in payment of of- fice rent, salaries of assistants and contingent expenses not to excess of $4500. ‘Ihis sum is $1200 less than the amount allowea for the office in previous years. Heretofore all the deputies, or special agents as they are called, received $100 a month. Mr. Fitzgerald was forced to make a cut of $10 in the salaries of his three men. Under the circumstances he will have to stand nearly all of the ex- pense of the late Jn{;nnese cooly investiga- tion, the fitting of his office for the free employment bureau and the rental of a small room necessary to the burean. Even his traveling expenses will have to come out of his own pocket. This sum does not even permit the hiring of a janitor, and there is some talk of setting Deputies Dam and Greene to work cleaning wood- work and sweeping out the offices. Mr. Fitzgerald states that notwithstanding this paralyzing cut he will not abandon any of the work of his bureau nor the free employment feature for the want of funds. —————— Attempted Suicide. Amnold inmate of the French Hospital, said to be 50 years of age, had a falling out with the superintendent of the institution yester- day morning, and as a fesult visiied the site of the old Cliff House and jumped into the break- ers. Special Officer Schaeffer rescued the old man and took him back to the hospital. The ‘would-be suicide refused to give his name at the time. It was afterward ascertained that the man’s ralme is Emil Gruett, a ‘“boarder’” at the hospi- al. e . The Widber Estate. The will of the late Treasurer, James H. Wid- ber, if such a document exists, has not yet been discovered. His son, Augustus C. Widber, has examined.many of his father's private papers, but none are of the character men- tioned. At present he is the special adminis- trator to look after the drugstore business, and he expects within a few days to be ap- pointed general administrator of the estate. Take No Substitute..
