SANTA ROSA, Can., Sept. 25.—More grapes are wanted in this county this sea- son. | gome in buggies and others on bicycles, | eager to buy any variety of grape that will make wine, and willing to go to any figure below $13 50 for the better varieties. Though there is a scarcity of grapes among the wine men it is not due toa short crop. The grapegrowers 1n this sec- tion say that the crop generally is fully up to the yield of last season. Zinfandels, especially, are a good crop, far better than few weeks ago. The growers are having some difficulty ing is finished this week about 1000 bands will be turned into the vineyards to pick grapes.

SANTA ROSA, Car., Sept. 25.—The Santa Rosa Water Works began an action Wednesday against the city and Council to restrain the issnence of bonds or the construction of water works on the ground that the cig’ entered into a contract with the plaintiff in 1874, by which the com- pany was granted 1heiprivile!<e of supply- the city with water for fifty years. And, further, that relying on this con- tract the plaintiff has expended with the knowledge of the city about $174,000 in the | construction of works, and that the city cannot now enter into competition wit plaintiff and so destroy its works. s i DOWN 4N OROVILLE Two Men Fall Thirty Feet and Are Se- verely Injured OROVILLE, CaL., Sept. —Dan and Richard Isaacs, who have been sinking a WELIL. | well on Ayers’ place, near Yankee Hill, for the past few days, using a horse to hoist the bucket, met with a serious acci- | dent this evening. They were both coming up in the bucket, when the horse became unmanageable and started on a run. When near the top of the well the rope broke, and they fell thirty feet to the bottom on top of the bucket. Assistance was procured as soon P ble, and they were taken out uncon- scious and badly bruised. Dr. Heidrich of Cherokee was telephoned for and at the present writing he is unable to say how seriously they are injured. ON THE SAN JOSE TRACK. Gifford Surprised the Talent in the Trotting Event. Politas Made the Fastest Mile of the Year for Two-Year- Olds. Rex —The races Sept. shed several surprises, andthe t suffered finaneially in consequence. E, CaL was the favorite in the first regular event, but Rex Gifford won first money, taking three straight heats. The 2:18 pace was especially noted for surprises. There were four heats paced, but the favorite, Loupe, failed. to take even one of them. Birdroe won two straight heats in easy style, and was then distanced and sent back to.the barn. Javelin won the third heat, but in the fourth she ran away and threw out her driver. Edna R won -the heat, but owing. to the approaching darkness the race was not finished. The time made exceeded expectations, the winners all- going a great deal faster than their class. The time made by Rex Gifford and Birdroe was exceptionally fast. The opening attraction was a special event, in which the Palo Alto stock farm’s gray mare Nordica went. the circuit of thé trac gainst 2:30.. She was well driven by P. Phibben and suceeeded in making the mile in 2:19}4. The next event was the Capital stakes, for which the Palo Alto stock farm’s chestnut filly had no competitors. She was sent around with a running mate, and showed her mettle by making the fastest mile of the year for 4 two-year-old. The quarter was reached in :35, the half in 1 1:09, the three-quarters in 1i:42 and the 4. Politas’ best 914, made in the mile was covered in previous record was | second heat of a race at Woodland. In the fourth heat of the 2:18 class Pacer Javelin’s sulky ran into Loupe and Loupe broke. Javelin got frigntened and giving a jump, threw out his driver, Ben Cha- b The driver luckily escaped injury. Javelin, finding himself free, endeavored to make a runaway race of the heat. He took the inside rail and the drivers of the other horses were kept busy betwecen watching their pacers and watching the runaway. BEdra R led into the stretch, Fresno Prince second, Loupe third, and they passed under the wire in that order. Javelin came in with the bunch, dragging a badly wrecked sulky at She was captured by a man with a lariat just as ahe was starting on another round trip. The time made by Edna R, the winner of the heat, was 2:163{. Owing to the lateness of the hour—6:20 —and the approaching darkness-ihe finish 18 pace was postponed until 1 o'clock to-day. The judges decided to al- low Javelin to start again, it being their opinion that the accident by which her driver was thrown was unavoidable. This | decision gave general satisfaction.

Bandit Paderes Escapes With a Compara- tively Light Séntence. SAN DIEGO, Car., Sept. 25.—Francisco Paderes, who pleaded guilty to horse- stealing in order to escape arrest by the Mexican officers, who charge him with an atrocious double murder, was to-day sen- tenced by Judge Pierce to two years at San Quentin. - Paderes takes his sentence more than lightly. In fact, be said he was glad togo north, and added that he would rather | spend two years at San Quentin than two weeks in Ensenada jail, with prospects of being shot At the end of that time. A Mexican officer has been in the city with extradition papers, waiting for a loophole to be made through which he could secure Paderes. The latter will be taken to San Quentin immediately. The officer said to- night he would await the expiration of the sentence to arrest Paderes. g FERESNO DAMAGE SUIT. President of a Fruit Packing Company Wants Pay for a Foot. FRESNO, Caw., Sept. 25.—A. F. Tenny, president of the Fresno ¥ruit Packing Company. to-day filed a suit in the Superior Court against the Southern Pa- cific and Central Pacific Railroad com- anies for damages to the amount of $50,- Buyers are on the road early and late, :gor 7 b 5 On September 28, 1693, Mr, Tenny was run over by a switch engine at a crossing in this eity with the result that he had to have a foot amputatea. Mr. Tenny alleges that cars were left standing on the tracks in such a manner that the engine could not be seen, and it did not give proper alarm. e MURDER OF A NEGRO. Thomas Day of BSeattle Killed by a Jealous Husband. SEATTLE, Wask., Sept. 25.—The Coro- ner’s jury found that Thomas Day, the negro miner, murdered at Franklin, this county, Sunday night, met his death at the hands of Dlvid&nnnisur, also colored. Bannister, who is now in jail in this city, is said to have mmmif.ud the crime be cause of the criminal intimacy of his wife with Day. BELLICOSE OFFICIALS, Hostilities Are Still On at the State Capital. COLGAN HAS HIS SAY.| He Is Proud of Being Called a Poor, Obscure Black- »smith. FITZGERALD IS CRITICIZED. State Bureau of Highways on His Residence In San Fran- cisco. SACRAMENTO, CAL., Sept. 25.—Hostili- ties are still in active progress between the Attorney-General and the State Board of Equalization and Controller E. P. Colgan, nor has the article in regard to Mr. Colgan, which appeared in the columns of a San Francisco daily this morning, although denied by Attorney-General Fitzgerald, tended toward alleviating the tension of antagonistical feeling existing between the interested parties. ‘When questioned upon the subject Mr. Colgan simply smiled and said: *“If there be any truth in the published article I can simply say that I fully desire that all the affairs of my oftice he experted. I have not the slightest objection in the world. I have resided in this State many years, am well known, and after conducting the affairs of my offiae for one term the people have shown their confidence in my integ- rity by re-electing me. “I have no desire to enter into any per- sonal discussion with the Attorney-Gen- eral. He is entitled tohis opinion; on the | other hand I am entitled to mine. Ido not deny that I have been a horseshoer; on the contrary I am proud of it and it would have hurt my feelings had the Attorney-General not intimated that I was a poor blacksmith.” : Equalizer Morehouse, when approached on the subject, said: . “If there be any truth in the reported staternent I am surprised at Atiorney- General Fitzgerald's inconsistency, for he remarked in .my presence that it wasa pleasure to render to the Controller’s office an opindn, as Colgan always presented such a plain and concise statement on any subject that it was impossible not to ren- der an inteiligentopinion; and on another occasion, when some one asked about the allowment of a claim the Attorney-Gen- eral remarked: ‘If you are entitled to that claim you'll getit, if not you won't, be- cause I know that Colgan is one of the most careful and conscientious officials ever in the employ of the State, orthat I ever met.’”’ Mr. Douglass, Deputy Controller, fully indorsed the statement of Mr. Morehouse, and was also surprised that the Artorney- General would descend to the level of using personalities because Controlier Colgan failed to coincide with his view on a sub- ject. “The general,” he added, “has always made it a point {o speak of the reduction of expenses in all departments, bat he ap- parently overlooks the fact that fully onehalf of the apopropriations for the repairs of the State., Capitol for the coming two years have al-ready been expended in adorning his office apartments in the State Capitol, and that he fails to comply with the law in not re- siding in this city, as provided for in sec- tion 852 of the Political Code, while chap- ter 338 of the Statutes of '63 and '6¢ espe- cially provide that he must be a resident. As it is there are seven employes in his office, and all but two are in the San Fran- cisco branch office.” That there was trouble brewing between Attorney-General Fitzgerald and the Bureau of Highways some time since is fully conceded by many of the occupants of the State Capitol building who are con- ceded to be conversant with all the hap- penings that occur within its walls. At the meeting of the State Bureau of High- ways held September 21 the following reso- lution was presented by Commissioner Maude: Resolved, In view of the fact that it isim- possible to see the Attorney-General in Sacra- mento and &s it seems necessary in view of bis actions as a member of the Board of-Ex- aminers to have a consultation with him, the members ot this bureau proceed to San Fran- cisco to consult with the Attorney-General at his office in that city. : Before the resolution was put to a vote Commissioner Maude announced that he had consulted with Commissioner Irvine on the matter (that gentleman being ab- sent), and that the latter was in sympathy with the resolution. The foregoing resolution was called forth by a similar document presented at a previous meeting of the bureau, which reads: WHEREAS, The law creating this ' bureau contemplates and directs that an inquiry shall be made into what lawsand methods are in use in other States in regard to road matters; and wherees, this bureau is in receipt of an invitation from Hon. J. Bterling Morton, Sec- retary of Agriculture, urging the attendance of all State highway organizations at tie Na- tional Roed Conference at Atlanta, Ga.; there- fore be it Resolved, That the honorable Board of Ex- aminers be requested to permit the expendi- ture of the necessary sum to defray the ex- penses of one of the members of this bureau to attend said convention and to represent the State ot California at Atlanta on the 17th, 18th and 19th days of October, 1893, he to gather such data as appertains to highway im- provements and legality. It was in regard to the advisability of the expenditure of the necessary sum to defray the expenses of said Commissioner that the bureau desired a consaltation with the Attorney-General, and according to a published statement the Attorney- General is credited with making the asser- tion that he did not believe in paying for junketing trips and would not countenance the trip to Atlanta. It was also stated that the bureau was fast expending the appropriation of $31,000 allowed it by ihe Legislature for expenses. In the latter statement a grave mistake seems to have occurred, as in reality in the five months during which the bureau has been in opera- tion they have expended but $1466 63, while in reality their pro rata would have been $6458 33, while the personal expenses of the members of the bureau during a trip through eight counties of the State amount to but $316 per day, which in comparison with the expense record of Attorney-General Fitzgerald while a member of the Supreme bench is merely nominal. Another point upon which tha Attorney-General has been a sticker is that vouchers must accompany all expense bills, although in his personal expense accounts but’ few vouchers, it is claimed, have been filed. At the present time, however, any misunderstanding that may have existed between the bureau and the Attorney-General seems to have been smoothed over, as the members of the bureau while extending every civility to the representatives of the press, are ex- tremely chary of making any statement about the matter, and state that they do not desire to be drawn into any contro- versies that may occur between members of other State departments. Another opinion rendered by the At- torney-General that has created consider- able dissatisfaction among sportsmen throughout the State and has given cause for gonsiderable discussion is that rendered on ‘the fish and game law, which is as follows: - Hon. J. M. Morrison, Fish Commissioner, Sacra- mento—DEAR SIR: In reply to your favor of July 15, asking whether or not the Board of Super- visors have power to extend the closea season for deer beyond the limits prescribed by the game law of 1895, I refer you to my letter of June 11, 1895, to the California Fish Commis- sion, iu which Istate that section 11 of article XI of the constitution confers upon the Board of Supervisors the power to enact any laws in regard to the regulation of fish and game which are not in conflict with the general law. As the ordinance extending the closed season would not be in conflict with the general law, it is my opinion that the Board of Supervisors have power to enact such ordinances. However, any atttempt on the part of a Board of Supervisors to extend the open season would be in direct conflict with the fish and game law of the State, and would therefore be invalid. Respectfully, W. F. FIT2GERALD, Attorney-General. California Fish Commission, 78 Flood building, San Francisco—DEAR Sies: In reply to your favor of the 23d ult., relative to the disposition to be thade by your deputies of mets seized when being illegally used, and of fish foundin such nets or seized during the close season, it is my opinion that there is no authority vested in your deputies to seize such nets; that their duties in the premises end when they have removed the nets; that they are not authorized under the law to store them or dispose of them in any manner, and they should simply be removed from the water and left upon the bank. [See case of Jeck vs. Anderson, 57 Cal., 251.] 1 am also of opinion that there is no authority under the law for your deputies to dispose of fish seized in or out of season. Their duties ex- tend only for the prevention of llegally taking and disposing of such fish, and that when they have performed these duties their jurisdiction isatanend. Respectfully, W. F. FITZGERALD, Attorney-General, In an opinion rendered later the Attor- ney-General states the deputies have a right to hold for evidence such nets as they may find in the waters used in viela- tion of the law and such fish as they can hold for evidence, and that when taken the same should be delivered to the near- est Justice of the Peace. At the time when this new game act was introduced in the Assembly it was plainly stated by one of its advocates that the bill had been introduced for the purpose of pro- viding a law that would be universal throughout the State and would prove an effectual safeguard to sportsmen. Asun- der the provisions of the old law, which gave Supervisors the power to enact special ordinances on the matter, a hunter had to go with a map of the country and a sur- veyor to tell what county he was shooting in, consequently to make the matter more binding every clause was headed as fol- lows: “Every person who in the ‘State of | California,” ” etc., and then proceeds to provide a close season for various kinds of game and fish, leaving at least three months in which game could be taken throughout the State, but the de- cision rendered by the Attorney-General, in which he declares that county Boards of Supervisors are empowered to shorten the period of the open season, annuls the pur- pose for which the act was created and leaves the sportsmen as liable to prosecu- tion through ignorance of county bonndary lines zs ever. Many legal lights, when interviewed upon the subject, claim that the shorten- ing of the open season is as direct conflict with the provisionsof the act as the length- ening of the season would be, and several persons have declared a willingness to go into some county where the open season has been curtailed, kill game in direct in- fringement of the county ordinance and test this matter in the courts. The first opinion rendered by Attorney-General Fitzgerald in the capture of nets engaged in illegally catching fish, which stated that said nets should be left by the deputies of the Fish Commission upon the river bank, was deemed extremely illogical and raised a furor of indignant protest, and the ques- tion of evidence being raised the second opinion was given, stating that such fish and net could be retained as evidence, and must be deposited with the nearest Justice of the Peace. SR C THE INTERVIEW A FAKE, Attorney-General Fitzgerald Says the “Chrowicle” Story Was Unwarranted. Attorney-General Fitzgerald was seen last evening in reference fo an alleged in- terview which he was reported to have had with a Chronicle reporter. He expressed himself as having been misrepresented in that interview, saying that the whole af- fair was unauthorized and unwarranted. The entire interview consisted of one smail paragraph: “Mr. Colgan’s statement that there has been conflict between our offices hereto- fore is untrue,”” began the Attorney-Gen- eral, and he proceeded to clinch matters by saying, “and that he has been sustained against this office is false.” Which Mr. Fitzgerald admitted was given as quoted. The restof the matter attributed to him he emphatically denied. The Attorney-General declined to speak further concerning Controller Colgan and the payment of Expert Lewis’ salary. AN UNFORTUNATE CELESTIAL. After Boing Deported From Victoria, He 18 Arvested for Theft. VICTORIA, B. (., Sept. 25.—Wang Si Quang, the Chinaman deported from Tacoma, but taken from the Northern Pa- cific steamship Tacoma here on a warrant charging him with theft, was up in the Police Court this morning for a week’s ad- journment of the case. Lim Yem, who swore to the infornration, again failed to appear. The magistrate refused to dismiss the case and ordered a remand for a week. He also directed that a warrant for the arrest of Lim Yem be issued. He an- nounced that the court could not be trifled with, and particularly not in a case affect- ing the relations of the United States with a friendiy nation. Another feature Las been added to the case by the action of Dodwell, Carlile & Co. hey contracted with the United States Government to deliver the deported Celestial safely to China, and there 1s a penalty for failure. Agent Macrae has conferred with the magistrate and will be legally represented at the next hearing. —_—— Arizonans Shoot Over a Wife.” PHENIX, Ariz., Sept. 25.—Last night at Prescott W. C. White, freighter, was shot and instantly killed by Jack Wren. Both men were married, but separated in an of late been frequently visited by White. The shootin r;gc‘:;yfl d shortly after White had left Mrs. Wren’s house. The murderer escaped to the hills, but is surrounded and will soon be captured. THE BAY DISTRICT RACES, Talent Backed the Favorites and Were Rewarded With Success. REY ALTA ALONE WAS DOWNED. The Duchess of Towers Had Speed Enough to Run Over the Top of the Moon. Mr. A. B. Spreckels has engaged Tom Boyle to take charge of his big string of racers vice the veteran trainer, Cy Mulkey, resigned. If the popular young trainer meets with the suc- cess he had during the past meeting with the few horses he handled, the red, white and blue colors of the wealthy turfman snould be seen in the front rank many times in the near fature, The warm weather was prolific of fast time in the different events run off at the track yesterday, but it also had a depress- ing effect on the attendance, for there was scarcely more than a quorum of the sport- ively inclined present. Those that did at- tend though had a whole lot of fun with the bookies, for about all they had to do was to back the first choice and get in line. The favorites all won with one exception, and that was Rey Alto, who was beaten out by Red Will in the third race of the day. If Louie Lloyd were haif as bad as some folks paint him he would probably now be serving time in the mines of Siberia. 1f he have his bad days he also has his good ones. He had the mount on Gold Bug in the ogenin race and the bookmakers laid the odds of 9 to 5 against him, which was later cut to 6 to 5. He kept him back until the stretch was reached, when he cut loose and won handily from Joe. Cotton, running the five furlongs in 1:013{. Kath- leen finished third. Agitato, who appears to be rounding to into something like his old form, had no trouble in winning the next race, a mile selling dash, going to the post 7to 10. Snaw took the lead with him before the quarter was reached and, leading all the way, won pulling up from the 12 to 1 chance Vernon by two lengths in 1:4214. The third race was another cf those five- furloag dashes of which the public have had such a surfeit. Rey Alta was backed from twos to even money to win it, but in a drive he was beaten cut quite cleverly by Red Willat5to 1 in the bet- ting. The winner, who showed much im- provement of late, ran thedistance in 1:01. It looked a foregone conclusion that Duchess of Towers would win the five and a half furlong handicap, with 104 pounds in the saddle, and she was a de- cided choice. Opening at 7 to 10, she later went back in the betting to even money. After getting away from the postonly fairly well, being bumped on the back- stretch and falling back to last place, she walked through the bunch and won hands down from Red Bird, a 25 to 1 chance, in 1:07 flat. 1i there be any owners on the track that think they have a record- breaker in the sprinting line they will un- doubtedly find in this tgr -year-old brown daughter of Algerine and imp. Prestoa good filly to work out with. Royal Flush, the 2 to 1 second choice, hardly "had speed enough to finish in the “also runs.” The Burns & Waterhouse stable scored another win the last race. Backed from 8 to5to4tod Sam Leake appeared to want to run over the top of the other two-year- olds in the race and won, eased up, three- parts of a length before Benham, the sec- ond choice, with Fireman third. The Daubin youngster negotiated the five fur- longs in 1:0184. Fourth day, Tuesday, September 25. Weather fine: track fast. 16, FIRST RACE—Five furiongs, selling, light + welter-weights: purse $300.

The Patlent Succumbed to a nghi Fever, Which Baffled Medl- cal Skill. l} William Norris, secretary of the Spring | Valley Water Works, died at his home, 927 | Bush street, in this City, at 6 o'clock last | evening. The sickness which preceded | his death was of short duration. His strength had been failing for some time, | but death was supposed to be due to ad- | ‘W. E. Norris. vancing years. Last Saturday he was at the office of the company, but on the fol- | lowing day fever setin. It did not take an alarming turn until Tuesday night. | Then the high temperature of the patient caused serious apprehension. Dr. Mec- Donnell, who has been attending Mr. Nor- | ris since Dr. Chismore went to Japan with Irving M. Scott. did everything pos- sible to subdue the fever, but his efforts were unavailing and the the patient ex- pired last evening. 3 William Norris was born at Newport, R. I, in 1819, and was therefore 76 years old. He went to St. Louis when a young man_ and engaged in steamboating on | the Mississippi in the “40's.” There he | met William C. Ralston and others who came to California later. Mr. Norris | crossed the plains on a mule, arriving in | San Francisco in the year 1850. His first employment here was with the pioneer house of James Blair. Subsequently he gained the position of manager of the North Pacific Transportation Company, an institution of which Ben Holladay was the chief owner. 5 ‘When the company decided to sell its ships and other property to the Germans Mr. Norris went to_Inrope and conducted the negotiations which led to the sale in 1873. This transaction closed his career as a steamship man and, with quite a fortune he turned his attention to other affairs. In 1875 he was chosen secretary of the Spring Valley Water Works, and held that position until his death. In 1861, when California seemed to be drifting toward secession, Mr. Norris_was a_pronounced Union man. In the First Unitarian Church he was the right-hand man and earnest supporter of thateloquent advocate of Joyalty to the Union, Thomas Starr King. & The death of King took place in 1864, and two years later his widow and Mr. Norris were married. Two children of the eloguent orator live in San Francisco—Mr. | Fritz King, & well-known lawyer, and Mrs. Davis, the wife of Horace Davis. Mr. and Mrs. King came up from their Belmont | home yesterday and were at the Norris residence last evening. Horace Davis and | wife, at their summer home in the Santa | Cruz Mountains, were advised by !eleirnph | last evening of Mr. Norris’ death, and will arrive to-day. | William i‘orris was a citizen widely | known and highly respected for his char- | acter and intellect. Aside from service as | & Trustee of the Free Public Library he never took an active part in public affairs | as an office-holder. e found his greatest leasures in life at home with his family, | Eis books and his pictures. His library of | 3500 volumes is regarded as one of the best | selected in San Francisco. | Mr. Norris was a life member of the Bo- hemian Club, a member of the Pacifice | Union and a Knight, Templar of Califor- nia Commandery. Hedid not amass vast wealth, but his estate is large enough to be classed as an ample fortune. The funeral will probably take place to- mMorrow. .
