REDWOOD CITY, Car., Oct. 16.—The recent reported “hold-up” at the South | San Francisco rai depot is now be- lieved to be a fabrication. The Sheriff and other officials of San Mateo County inter- ested themselves in the matter, and were joined by Detective Gard of the Southern Pacific Company. It is believed that nothing further will come of the matter except that a couple of cies will be created among Southern - employes, and that @ new station agent will be placed in charge. | “The Sheriif of San Mateo County and other ofhi have been investigating the reported station hold-up,” said Detective Gard, when seen at his home in this City last evening, “‘and up to the present time | bave been unable to find any trace of any one who had attemptea to rob the station. I have not yet made an official report on the. matter, as the investigation has not | been completed. I do not know of any | vacancies that will be created among the hern Pacific_employes a result of the alleged hold-up.” - STKAIT DISPUTE. HECATE British Columbians Claim the Americans Are Infringing. VICTORIA, B. C. Oct. 16.—The British Columbians interested in halibut fishing | have begun to dispute the right of Amer- icans to fish in Hecate Strait, and have in- ed the au thorities at Ottawa to decide whether the strait is “open water” or *in- [ land wate | ‘The Cana | bilities of these fisheries and Eastern market for them, when the Ameri- dians first realized the possi- made an cans, instead of casting about for new banks in waters open to them without pos- sibility of dispute, began also to fish in | Hecate Strait, the channel separating Goschen Island of the Queen Charlotte group from the mainland of British Colum- ia. Besides trespassing thus, Americans are said to be disposing of cargoes of flour and other merchandise to the Indians, | greatly to the detriment of the Hudson | Bay Company. The authorities here have decided the thing must e stopped, and are only waiting for Ottawa to decide that Hecate Strait is “inland water,”” before ejecting the intruders. -— Checked by the Supre:ne Court. SPOKANE, Wash., Oct. 16.—Judge Ar- thur was about to take action to muke his temporary writ restraining the Police Board from securing possession of the Po- lice Department permanently to-night, | when he was restrained by a writ from the | State Supreme Court, felegraphed here from Olympia.

They are the Mon- arch and the famous Zira Schulze mines, situated in Douglas County, in the Pine Nut district. The former was bonded for $100,000 and_the latter for $250,000.

ONE SILENT PURCHASER. The Bidder on the Property Could Not Identify His Principal. THE CALIFORNIA AND EASTERN Belleved to Be In the Deal and Backed by the Santa Fe People. SAN BERNARDINO, CarL.,, Oct. 16.-- The Nevada Southern Railroad was sold this morning at Sheriff’s sale for $153.966, and receiver’s sale for $25,034, the sale be- ing made by Sheriff Holcombe. :The property was bid in by H. C. Dilion for K. B. Anderson, representing Woodbury and Denver capitalists, It is understood the property will be deeded to the California and Eastern, a Denver corporation, and the road pushed to completion. All parties to the sale seem to be en- tirely ignorant of who the real purchaser of the road is. Both sales were bid in by Judge Dillon of Los Angeles in the name of K. B. Anderson, but when the Sheriff made out the notice of sale and asked Judge Dillon to name the residence of the purchaser, no answer could be given. No one seems to know who K. B. Ander- sonis. Judge Dillon, Judge Wright and Receiver Seibert all pleaded ignorance of his identity. Itis claimed by those who are presumably on the inside that Ander- son isa representative or member of the recently organized California and Eastern Railroad Company, which is backed by Denver and Chicago capitalists. Judge Dillon claimed ignorance on even this point, simply saying that he was act- ing under instructions. Itis believed by those who have heen observing the affairs of the road that it is really a purchase by the Santa Fe or At- lantic and Pacific, as the road 1s practically a feeder of that line and with a field of extension would be completed to Piocbe, in Southern Nevada, opening ud an exten agriceltural and mining dis- trict and eventuaily making another through line to the coast. TO Selhg WORK THE DESERT QUE. San Bernardino Will Revive Mining Interests. SAN BERNARDINO, Car., Oct. 18.—. aresult of an arrangement made to- the Desert Queen mine will again be wo ing a full force within the next week. This is the rich find near Indio which has been completely cramped and tied up by litiga- tion, four separate suits having been filed, each contestant claiming & one-fourth in- terest. About a month ago the mine was sold to MeMillan & Co. of Denver for $120,000. The first payment was to have been made to-day, but owing to the trouble over the title 10 money was paid. In the mean- time the mine "has been idle. The action which will once more put the mine in ac- i tion.is the filing of a quitelaim which S. F. Zombro, a local bank the owner of a quarter interest in the mine, transferred to him by James McHaney. = - Tt is supposed that Zambro will furnish and look after the litigation with other contestants, while McHaney will work a full force of miners. As the cases cannot” be brought into court until the boundary line between San Bernardino and Riverside counties is definitely settled they will probably be able to work the mine for several months unmolested. A Deal in S Escaped Jail at Oakdale. MODESTO, Car., Oct. 16.—George Mo- ran, an inmate of the brancn county jail at Oakdale, escaped some time last night. burglary, and this morning when Con- stable Swatzel went to the jail he found some one had broken the lock from the outside and Moran was gone. Moran was caught robbing a business house. DAGGETT AS AN EXAMPLE HIs COURSE TO BE USED AS AN ARGUMENT FOR AN IM- PORTANT REFO CONGRESSMAN MAGUIRE REVIEWS THE RECORD OF THE Ex- LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR. ‘When Congressman Maguire was asked what he had to say in answer to the re- cently published statements of Superin- tendent of the Mint Daggett, he said he wished the discussion of the wliole matter was closed until the investigation of Mr. Daggett’s course should be made, as an- nounced by Secretary Carlisle. Continu- ing he said: Mr. Daggety's recent utterances have no gen- eral relation to the charges against him, but have been directed rather to a justification of his course in excluding my iriends from con- sideration at the Mint. As he has not to meet any charge of that kind, his attempt at justifi- cation was quite unnecessary. His suggestion that my attackupon him is & mere fight for patronage I have already disposed of by a posi- tive denial, and that I deem entirely suflicient for the present. The fact is that so far from making any fight for patronage of the Mint, it is my purpose to use the Daggett case principally for the pur- pose of establishing the necessity of putting mints of the United Btates under the civil ser- vice law, the result of which will be to make Mr. Daggett’s appointees in_ the Mint secure in their places. It will set them free from his political domination in ward politics and will do away imme- diately with the political machine which he is seeking to build up at_the Mint for the promo- tion of his individual purposes and for work- ing out his revenge against the Democrats who tilgl’smuuced and read him out of the party in 4. What affirmative purpose he has to serve in olitics no one knows. He always served the uthern Pacific when in power, and L presume that his political bossism will be used to serve their A;\u- e, He denfes that Senator Stanford requested his Apgomtmen! to the Superintendency oi the Mint, but acknowledges that he was présented to President Cleveland as a candidate by Sena- tor Stanford, and that he had no friend in_the California Democratic delegation except Con- gressman Geary. The influences of which he speaks a8 having secured his appointment was such moneyed in- fluences as are always subject to the control of the railroad combination in such matters, Not only was he introduced to the President by Mr. Stanford, but shortly after his appoint- ment, and on the mornitig of Senator Stan- fora’s death, he was in company with Steve Gage, the political manager of the Southern Pacific Company, and on the way to visit Sen- ator Stanfo; rhaps to express his gratitude for past favors and probably to discuss his fu- ture official conduct. Mr. Daggett was entitled to the support of Mr. Stanford and his assistance in thet matter, ecause at a time when they needed his assist- ance he gave 1t to them ana at personal sac- rifice, and when his service involved the viola- tion of the platform pledges on which he was He was held to answer yesterday for | | CALL, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 17, 1895. elected to the office of Lieutenant-Governor, and consequently involved the surrender of whatever political ambition he then had. Mr. Daggett was elected Lieutenant-Governor on the platform adopted by the San Jose conven- tion in 1882. That platiorm contained certain specific pledges binding all nominees of the conventlon, if elected, to exercise their official power to subordinate the railroad corporation Of this State to the law; to bring about a reduc- tion of freights and fares; to compel the rail- road companies to pay their taxes, and to re- strain all such companies within the limits of their lawful powers. Mr. Daggett as Lieutenant-GOvernor was ex- officio president of the Senate, and in that ca- Pacity acted with the Republicans to prevent the Democratic majority in _the Senate from carrying out the platform pledges on which they were elected. In conse?uence of this he was, on June 11, 1894, by the Democratic State Convention, de- nounced and expelied from the Democratic party by the following resolutions, emb>died in the platform adopted by that convention: Resolved, That we are not unmindful of the con- duct of certain Democratic officers and legislators, Who co-operated with the Republicans at the late extra session in frusirating the will of the people and antagonizing the true interests of the State; that while noamount of care can at all times pre- vent the intrusion into politics of faithless men, Who enter with a false pledge upon thelr lips merely 10 ruin and betray, yet the party becomes responsible for the conduct of such recreant mem. bers ouiy when, having discovered them, it fails to condernn their course; that itisthe duty of a party, if it be true to jtself and the people, 10 expel from its ranks and denounce as unworthy of public trust and lost to all sense of honor traitors and pledge- breakers, therefore we donow denounce among ouhers Lieutenant-Governor John Daggett, whose Ccasting vote was ever thrown into the scale'to turn the balence against the people. . Atthe time of the adoption of that resolu- tion there were 471 delegates present, repre- senting every county in the State, and while a strong defense was made on behalf of one of the other men, no man in the convention essayed to deiend Mr. Daggett. The idea of his again assuming to exercise control in the councils of the Demoeratic party by the purely mechanical power which the control 0? 200" Federal positions gives him is perfectly absurd. But there can be no doubt that that is the purpose to which Mr. Daggett is putting the influence which his position gives him. THE CUBAN VOLUNTEERS, MORE ABoUT THE COMPANY WHICH PROPOSES TO FIGHT + SPANISH TROOPS. CAPTAIN RoBINsON TALKS ABOUT THE Prans oF THE NEW ORGANIZATION. The account published yesterday relat- ing to the formation of a filibustering ex- | pedition to aid the Cuban insurgents in their struggle for independence has at- jstracted widespread attention, not only in | this City but elsewhere. If the statement of those at the head of the movement is to be believed, the active interest qis- played by the local Irish-American citi- zens on the Cuban situation is but a part of a general plan formulated at the Irish congress recently held in Chicago. Certain it is that the heads of the volun- teer company which became a permanent organization Monday night _are not acting without authority, though they firmly but politely refuse to name, for the present at east, the source from which it emanates. They are perfectly confident of soon bein on the way to theisland where Spain an: yellow fever have so, Jate held undisputed sway, and not too long they hope to par- ticipate in the doing away with the rule of the former. : - The executive committee is holding nightly meetings with a view of devising ways and means to secure everything needed in the commissary department. This completed, they are practically reaay to proceed to a point on the gulf or At- lantic coast, which they do not see proper at this time to name, and there sail for the 1sland of Cuba to do battle in the name of freedom. It would be an easy matter, they argue, to raise 1000 men in Ban Francisco if thiy Government would only recognize the insurgents, but as it is they will have to content themselves with a company of 200 brave, fearless spirits, who are willing to risk the home Government's frown 1f they can but strike a blow for liberty. *Tt is to be regretted,”” said Captain Rob- inson yesterday, ‘‘that so much promi- nence has been given the matter, because there is always a possibility that Uncle | Sam will step in and endeavor to take a hand in the game. Untilsome overt act is committed, however, I do not anticipate any great amount of trouble, though Spain’s emissaries may endeavor to make trouble for those whio have enlisted in the company, provided always that they can prove what they say. For this very reason 1t is nnwise at present to publish the names of those who have joined the organization. “It is hoped by the instigators of the movement that in a few weeks or months t most the American Government will sknowledge the insurgents as belligerents, just as the colonies sought to be recog- nized over a hundred years ago. If thisis done it will obviate any necessity on our part of going singly orin pairs to some other seaport city and then embarking for Cuba. However, whether our Government pursues this policy or not, it can be posi- tively stated that the San Francisco Cuban Volunteers will take up arms against the Spaniards at no very distant day.” Captain Robinson has had a varied and not uninteresting experience in insurrec- tions, and appears to be thoroughly in earnest in the present movement. In the sixties, when Ireland was in a constant state of turmoil, Robinson played a promi- nent part. He was a Fenian of note and was in charge of three or four counties, his particular business being to_distribute arms and materials of war. His activity finally brought him to the notice of the English Government, and with a price on his head he was forced to flee the country. The Cuban Volunteers, as the new com- pany is named, will meet egain next Tuesday night. e ON PRESBYTERIAN POLITY. A Course of Extension Lectures to Be Given Throughout the City.

FOUND IN A HOSPITAL, Sad End of a Two Years’ Search for a Missing Girl. IS IN A DYING CONDITION. Her Father Now on His Way From Oregon to Reclaim His Child. A pitiful story has been brought to light at the Receiving Hospital by the discovery of the identity of one of the patients who came to the institution about a week ago. The patient was a young woman who came from 17 Polk street. She gave the name of Mrs. Mariam Lewis, and said she had been living in the City for two years. She became a mother soon after entering the hospital, and since then she has been in a most critical condition. Yesterday it was learned that her real name was Mollie Coe, and that she is the daughter of a rich lumber man who lives near Dallas, Or. Word was at once sent to him by the hospital physician, and the answer came at once to have everything possible done for the girl and that he would start for San Frauncisco at once. The girl had left home two years ago, he said in his dispatch, ana her family had not heard from her since then. She isin a most critical condition. ASPHALT PAVEMENTS ON GRADES.—The use of asphalt on grades has been the subject of much discussion in cities where large schemes for repaving the streets were under consideration. A report to the Board of Estimate and Apportionment of New York questions the repavement with as- phalt of streets the grade of which exceeds an inclination of 134 per cent on the ground that grades over this amount so paved were impassable for heavy trucks in winter time. The consulting engineer of the board and the Water Purveyor of the city both take exception to this view. They mention ten or more streets paved with asphalt where the grade varies from 2.5 to 6 per cent, and one of these streets having a6 per cent grade was used in preference to parallel streets of less grade but pavea with stone blocks. It was also stated that traflic had deserted Ninety-third street, which was paved with granite blocks and had a grade of 5.15 per cent, for the asphalt pavement of Ninety-fourth street, although the grade there was 6 per cent. It iz in- teresting to know that on the grade on Fiith avenue, between Thirty-fourth and ‘Thirty-sixth streets, which is 4.87 per cent, ahe granite has to be sanded for safety. ——————— The door nail in earlier times, says an anti- quarian, was the plate of the door upon which the old-fashioned knocker struck to arouse the inmates of the house. As the plate or nail was struck many more times than any other nail it was assumed to be more dead than other nails. Hence the phrase, “Dead as a door nail.” HEALTH LAWS. EIDNEYS.
