OLD WORLD AFFAIRS Continued from First Page. trouble is that it comes just at the time when England is more deeply involved | abroad than it has been for years, and when the English people are anxiously discussing their ability to preserve com- mand of the seas in case of war, which makes it all the harder to bear with pa- tience. To cripple the British shipyards | at such a nervous juncture as this seems like treason, as well as folly, and even if nothing grave comes of if, it will be re- membered inst the Belfast operatives here in England for a long while. They will hear from it when they next get up Orange riots to show how superior Nester is to the rest of Ireland. The English people know of the Sack- ville-Bayard incident only what has been reflected back from the American press. No paper here, it scems, has seen the pam- phlet much less printed any of it. Several | members of the foreign embassies here tell | me that they have seen it, and looked it | over, but the idea that it created any ex- | ent in diplomatic circles is not well . Lord Sackville was never an ctual luminary, but since his return merica he has developed into a unpleasant fool, who spends most life in the country wrangling with and suspiciously scrutinizing his ounts. He rarely comes to town and is avoided as a nuisance when he does. Nothing that he could say could possibly re Bayard, whose social popularity re is as great as is his public ~epute at home. Not only his diplomatic colleagues, his most influential English friends will, I am told, advise Bayard to pay no n whatever to the thing. rcure Conway used to enjoy consider- ity among a certain class of Londoners who liked to describe them- ves as ethical, but latterly these have ndersd off after younger and breezier prophets and he finds himself decidedly a back number. He is making a stout effort his lost ground by means of the anti-lynching committee, of which he is tue moving spirit, and which he gets to- rer as often as possible to pass resolu- tions, which get printed in the papers along with the fact that he presided.

He says that he attributes his comparative failure to the fact that English literature is | a subject which excites no general enthusi- asm like the classics, science and cricket. 1t has been lightly supposed that Colonel North had touched the top note of vulgar- ity, which a British navvy returned en- riched from foreign parts could hopa to attain.

Yet, while the Kaffir boom is on, dukes are glad to have him to dinner, and even princes find him to their taste. There is a good deal of difference of opin- ion as to the result of next week’s settle- ment on African mining shares. A certain lot of weak people will be hurt, but some who ought to know think that the outcome will be & recovery of prices from the slump that they underwent. Ha whic! LD FREDERIC. Assailed an £ditor. MADRID, Sparx, Oct. 12.—At Ferrol to- day a son of the Captain-General of the Province of Corunna assaulted the editor of a socialist newspaper, and afterward ar- rested him. A mob of 400 workmen made violent protest, and marched through the streets to the palace. Several large win- dows were smashed with stones. The military finally dispersed the men, whereupon the men in the dockvards de- clared that they would go on strike. Fer- rol is one of the principal naval arsenals of Spain and a large number of men are employed there. e S Illness of a Tenor.

TRADED LAND FOR TOBACCO. Long Ago He Provided a Monument to Be Reared Over His Grave. HEALDSBURG, Car., Oct. 11.—Joel F. Ragan, whose death was chronicled in this morning’s CALL, was buried in Oak Mound Cemetery to-day. A large number of pio- neers from all parts of Sonoma County attended the funeral. The passing of tais pioneer removes from earth all but one of the first four men to settle in Russian River Valley.

LOS ANGELES, CAL., Oct. 21.—The last day of the Y. M. C. A. convention opened this morning with Dr. Frost’s excellent THE LATE JOEL F. RAGAN, ONE OF THE FIRST WHITE MEN TO SETTLE IN THE RUSSIAN RIVER VALLEY, [Reproduced from a photograph.] maining pioneer is George Miller, who lives in this city in the enjoyment of and whose declining years are passed in peace and comfort. Perhaps no man in Sonoma was better known than Joel Regan. In earlier days he was a great hunter, and in the fifties he had shot more than one grizzly upon the site of Healdsburg. His death recalls an incident which happened in the days when the stage ran from Petaluma to Healdsburg and the road agent was in his prime. He was a passenger on the stage once when it was held up and the driver killed. Ragan was sitting next to the Jehn, and holding the dead man with one bard he steered the coach and four with the other, saving valuable booty which would otherwise have been lost. Ragan came bere in 1850. He farmed the pluce now owned by L. J. Hall for vears, and sold land now worth $400 per acre for prices varying from a pound of tobacco to a first-class saddle. Afterward he purchased a stock ranch at the head of Dry Creek Valley, which he owned at the time of his death. Ragan was born in Tennessee, and argonauted to California in 1848. For the last forty-five years he has made Healds- burg his home. Those who know him best will deeply regret his death, for be- neath his rough exterior beat a kindly heart. Many a man has been given a start by the pioneer, who now lies cold in death. Ragan had been a picturesque figure in Healdsburg for many years. About ten years ago he met several business reverses, end, to insure himself a proper resting- place, purchased a lot in the cemetery and had an expensive monument erected. He was 2 bachelor, and had no known relatives in this State. He leaves an estate valued at $50,000. g HURLED OVER A PRECIPICE. 4 Child Fatally Injured ima Runaway Accident. HEALDSBURG, CAL., Oct. 11.—A dis- tressing accident occurred on the Mill Creek grade four miles from this city last evening by which the four-year-old son of David Mothern received injuries which will prove fatal and his wife was seriously bruised. Mrs. Mothern and her two children were driving home from Healdsburg. When on the grade they were crashed into by a four-horse team belonging to the Hop- kins ranch, which was coming in the oppo- site direction at a wild pace and driverless, ‘With much presence of mind Mrs, Mothorn threw one of the children out of the buggy onto the bank, but before she could jump with her baby the runaway team was upon her. The buggy in which herself and children were riding was totally demolished and the two occupants remaining in the vehicle hurled down the precipice with fearful force. e HEALDSBURG IMPROVEMENTS, Women Raising Funds to Beautify the Public Plaza. HEALDSBURG, CarL., Oct. 12. — The City Trustees have taken another long step in the direction of improvements, having advertised for bids for sewer-pipe, which will be put down in place of the wooden culverts that drain the residence and business streets. The entertainment to be given by the Young Ladies’ Aid Society for the improve- ment of the public plaza is progressing favorably, and on Thanksgiving night a dramatic production and ball will be given. Already the sale of tickets has been com- menced and the ladies expsct to have sev- eral hundred dollars to use in planting flowers and plants. Shipments of Produce. HEALDSBURG, Car., Oct. 12.—During sented the Territory of Arizona in Con- the past week there were shipped from this city fifteen carloads of canned fruits Rible study. Mr. Howard of San Diego read a very able paper on “State Work and Association Responsibility,” after which the report of the State committee was ren- dared by C. A. Jones of Riverside. It was decided to hold the next State convention at San Diego, subject to the approval of the State committee, Mr. Sperras was re-elected State secretary to serve for the ensuing year. MOVING BRIDGE TIMBERS Construction Work on the San Joaquin Road Is Not Lagging. A Bellef That Block 21 at Stockton Can Be Secured Without Legal Actlon. STOCKTON, Cax., Oct. 12.—The amount of work accomplished in the various de- partments of the Valley road during the last week has been large, especially on the line outside the city. The hitch in the work in#€own occasionied by the failure to secure block 21 has not affected the rapid progress of the graders, and nearly two and a half miles of grade has been finished by Grant Brothers and the sub-contractors. The movement of heavy bridge timbers toward the Stanislaus River by way of the Oakdale branch of the Southern Pacific is a daily scene, and by the time the graders reach the river many of the bridge timbers will be set and work on the briuge well under way. A force of men this morning commenced the work of excavating for the abutments of the steel bridge across Mormon Channel at Edison street. The ground will have to be excavated for some distance back on either side of the channel. As soon as this is done the work of driving piles for the foundation will be commenced, and everfthing will be in readiness for the steel superstructure as soon as it arrives from the East. Nothing was done to-day in regard to the transfer of block 21 to the company. Both Mr. Buell and Mr. Simpson are away from the city, and some hope is expressed that the matter will be settled on the re- turn of the latter gentleman without the tedious and expensive process of condem- nation. —_——— SOLD AT AUCTION. J. N. Enowles Bids in the California Paper Mills Property. STOCKTON, CAL.,, Oct. 12.—The Cali- fornia Paper Mills were sold to-day at public anction by 'Angu:t Muenter, the commissioner appointed by the court to sell the property, under the suit brought by Thomas Brown and Henry L. Dodge, who represent the bondholders. The entire property was_bid it by Orestes Pierce in the name of J. N. Knowles, who is the head of the Pacific Steam Vhal- ing Company and a director of the Contra Costa Water Company. The mill property proper brought $100,000, and block 8 owned by the company ACCIDENT AT SAN QUENTIN, Captain McLean Seriously Injured by a Fail From & House, SAN QUENTIN, CaL., Oct. 12.—Cap- tain M. McLean, formerly an officer in the prison, while shingling the roof of his house this afternoon, fell to the ground badly dislocating his left shoulder. It took the united strencth of four men to re- duce the dislocation, and, as the captain is 65 years old, serious results are feared. e o Discharged by a Portland Grand Jury. PORTLAND, Or., Oct. 12.—G. Chevreuil, who last Sunday evening struck Veterin- ary Surgeon Walter Marshall a blow with his bare fist in self-defense, from which the latter died twenty-four hours later, was discharged by the Grand Jury this afternoon. The (vidence before that body ‘was of such a na{ure that not even an in- dictment for involuntary homicide could be found. SAN QUENTIN INQUIRY. No Evidence of the Temporary Release of a Convict. DR. MANSFIELD IS OUT. Resigned When Censured for Accepting Money for a Prisoner. ST, CLAIR BREAKING DOWN. The Hesper Murderer Likely to Collapse When Led to the Gallows. SAN QUENTIN, Car.,, Oct. 12.—The Prison Directors met here to-day in regular session, a full board being present. War- den Hale demanded an investigation of the published story that he had allowed Convict Gardiner, incarcerated for life for murder, to visit his wife in San Francisco. He denounced the charges as absolutely and unqualifiedly false. Captain of the Yard Edgar, Commis- sary-Major Thorpe, Assistant Commissary Alden, Captain Jamison and Captain of the Guard Birlem were sworn and testified that Gardiner could not have been absent from the prison without their knowledge, and that he was never so absent. The red tape necessary to get a convict from within the walls was fully explained and most of the morning session was taken up with the matter. Convict Gardiner was also sworn and denied that he had ever been outside the prison grounds since his incarceration. The board finally decided to request the Chronicle to furnish it any evidence in that paper's possession as to the truth of the story, and to ask Mrs. Gardiner to ap- pear before it and tell what she knows. The board will subpena witnesses in the matter if, on examination of the law, it decides it has that power. General Henry Eichoff, District Attorney Martinelli of Marin County, Colonel W. F. C. Hasson and J. E. Walsh of San Rafael eppeared before the board in the matter of securing convict labor on roads within the county, as allowed by law. There has been considerable friction between the county officers and the prison authorities, arising largely from a misunderstanding as to the attitude of the latter. This was satisfactorily explained by the directors, and the result of the conference is that Warden Hale will on Wednesday meet a representative of the citizens of Marin County and go over the ground of the proposed highway. The two will then estimate the probable ex- pense and figure what proportion should be borne by the State and what by the county. The figures for the State’s share will be submitted to the Board of Examiners and if allowed by it the work will be begun at once. The county will be required, how- ever, to furnish a campetent roadbuilder to act as foreman over the convicts. A proposition to insure the six boilers in the jute mill for a term of three years was accepted from Mann & Wilson, San Francisco agents for the Hartford Boiler Insurance Company. Tne premium to be paid is $200, and in return for this the company insures the boilers for $20,000 and agrees to inspect them every three months. During the afterncon, in executive ses- sion, the board considered the case of Dr. Manstield, who received $50 from friends of a sick convict, in whose behalf they wanted him to write a letter to the Governor, urging the granting of a pardon. The physician admitted receiving the money, but stated that it was to be used for the purchase of delicacies for the sick man, and denied most emphatically that it was intended to influence him in his action concerning the urging of a parkon. There was no evidence of evil intent, but the prison has a rule which forbids officers or guards receiving money for the benefit of any prisoner, and requiring such money to be deposited with the Warden. The doctor was pretty severely hauled over the coals for violation of this rule, and the matter ended with his offering his resignation and its being accepted. ‘Warden Hale to-right stated emphati- cally that he did not for a minute suspect Dr. Mansfield of evil intent, but that to his private knowledge the physician had been for four months planning to resign his post and remove to San Francisco. Mansfield himself is surprised and rather hurt because the directors appear to look with suspicion on his action. There has long been friction between him and the Warden, and he intimates that he will have a story to tell before long. Dr. W. J. Wickman of San Rafael is at- tending the prison’s sick for the present. Dr. Lawler, a former Health Officer, isa candidate, and Dr. Casey, who runs on one of the ocean steamers, is also men- tioned. The latter is a nephew of Director Hayes. The board to-day paroled A. R. Hitch- cock, who was sent up from Humboldt County for five years for perjury. The parole cases of M. H, Wood from Mendocino for manslaughter, and Thomas King, in for five years for burglary, were laid over for six months. The application for the pardon of James Bowe of the San Francisco Letter Carriers’ Association, in for three years for embez- zlement, was denied. A letter from Judge Daingerfield strongly urging its denial had much to do with the board’s action. St. Clair and Hansen, the bark Hes- perian murderers, were brought up from San Jose this afternoon by Secret Service Agent Harris and Sheriff Lyndon of Santa Cruz. They were handcuffed, and haa their legs chained together. Marshal Barry Baldwin came up on an earlier train to arrange for their reception. The men were stripped, bathed, mea- sured, and put in stripes, then taken to the condemned cells which they wiil leave only to ascend the gallows. Baldwin has secured a death watch in the personsof M. Murphy and A. J. F. Nolte. The con- demned men seem to take their fate easily, but St. Clair’s nerves are evidently at very high tension and the officers declare him likely to break down on the gallows. el A PATHETIC PARTING. Murderer Hansen’s Betrothed Frenzied at His Approaching Doom. SAN JOSE, Car., Oct. 12.—Hans Han- sen and Thomas St. Clair, who are to be hanged at San Quentin next Friday for the murder of Mate Fitzgerald of the bark Hesper on the high seas, were taken to the place of execution to-day, on the 11 o’clock train, by Deputy Marshal Harris and Sherift Lyndon. Both men were hand- cuffed and shackled together. ‘While the prisoners were being made ready for the trip a pathetic scene was being enacted. Miss Ella Peterson, a young Swedish girl who has become deeply at- tached to Hansen since his incarceration here, was present. She prayed, cried and kissed Hansen good-by time and again, but he stood with a stolid look on his face, unmoved by the girl’s frenzy. She stayed until after the men were taken away, and after a good cry went to her home. Both men realize that nothing can be done to save them, and have become recon- ciled. Last night Hansen sat up until 2 o’clock, telling the death watch stories of the sea, but carefully avoiding mentioning what happened on the Hesper. St. Clair is not so communicative, but says he has resolved to meet death fearlessly. —_— SONOMA COUNTY FRUIT. Prices of Grapes Increasing and a Big Crop of Prunes Reported. SANTA ROSA, Can., Oct. 12.—Fruit agents from San Francisco commission- houses have been in ihe county the past week buying Zinfandel grapes. They have secured about 100 tons at $20 a ton. Most of the grapes have now been disposed of. There are some red wine grapes still unsold and they are offered at from $14 to $16 per ton. Those growers who sold for less figures some weeks ago are now com- }\_luining because they did not hold off a ittle longer for bigger prices. It is thought the second crop will bring about $15 per ton, although but few offers have been made as yet for the latter crop of grapes. The prune crop is over and growers gen- erally report the yield largely in excess of estimates. There is a better outlook and a more hopeful spirit among the farmers throughout the county than existed some weeks ago. SKIPPED OUT OF FRESNO, Clarke E. Wood, a Deputy Clerk, Left That City Under a Cloud. He Was a Plunger at the Races and Did Business for His Mother-in-Law. FRESNO, CAL, Oct. 12. — Clarke E. Wood, the chief deputy of the County Clerk’s office, is in parts unknown. He disappeared last Sunday night, and noth- ing has since been heard of him. When he left he stated that he was going to San Francisco to see his father, who, he said, was ill, and had summoned him there by telegraph. Nothing wrong was suspected until yes- terday, when County Clerk Hart looked at the “papers on Wood’s desk and found some important documents gone. Other matters arose which tended to strengthen the suspicion that the deputy bad made a permanent departure. Thé documents which were gone related to a civil case in which Wood wus commissioner. He had in his posssession $300 involved in the case. But he also took with him the bonds which he had furnished to be commissioner, and which he had in his possession as deputy clerk. But the chief reason ascribed to Wood'’s strange course was his actions as attorney- in-fact for his mother-in-law. She had given him the power of attorney to settle up some litigation in which she was in- volved, which he did successfully. But it has now been learned that he then mortgaged his mother-in-law’s property for all he could get, something like $600, and just after his disappearance he was to have given an account of his proceedings regarding the property. uring the races last week Wood was a lunger, and lost about $1000. Before eaving last Sunday Wood visited his mother-in-law and managed to get into her trunk, and took $60 which she had in keePin;: there. Wood also had a check on a local bank for $20 cashed by a saloon-keeper. Itis known that he took the south-bound train on Sunday evening, and many believe that he is following the race circuit. Wood’s wife is Iying at the point of death in this city from consumption. Another woman, who has a shady repu- tation, and with whom Wood has been as- sociating for some time, is indirectly ascribed as the real cause of Wood’s 1nex- plainable actions. He is about 30 years of age, unusually clever, and has held sev- eral positions of trust in this city and county. g STOLEN BY FRESNO MONGOLS. An Abducted Chinese Girl Taken From a Band of Highbinders. FRESNO, OaL., Oct. 12—Two deputy sheriffs from Contra Costa County arrived here to-day in quest of a Chinese girl, :fed 16 years, who had been abducted from Martinez by highbinders from this city. After a two hours’ search in Chinatown the girl was found in the headquarters of the leading highbinders of this city. She was taken by the officers on a warrant of arrest for vagrancy and spirited away to- night. he highbinders have instituted habeas corpus proceedings and Hi Rapelje, whois the Chinatown night watchman, is out looking for the two Contra Costa officers with the girl to serve the writs. It is known that he went on the wrong track and will not be able to catch them in this country. 0. K.TABLETS Worth Their Weight in Gold. The Qreat and Only Pure Green Kola Preparation.
