The Junior Member of a Stockton Firm Asks for a Receiver. STOCKTON, Car., Nov. 14.—Business circles experienced a genuine snarprise to- day when it became known that H. E. Wright, junior member of the firm of Smith & Wright, had petitioned the Supe- rior Court for the appointment of a re- ceiver for the firm. { This firm has one of the largest grain- houses in the San Joaquin Valley, and the allegations of the complaint make the trouble in the firm appear in the light of a sensation. The substance of the charge is that Captain J. Smith has, without the consent of his associate, diverted some funds from the business to purposes not legal under a copartnership. Captain Smith denies the charges, and was not the least perturbed. He expressed the hope that the difficul- ties would be settled out of court. The firm owns the Acampo warehouse and the Oakdale platform, besides other valuable property. The firm will probably be dissolved after to-day’s developments. In the meantime | George A. Brown is acting as receiver by authority of Judge Smith. Captain Smith | | is prominent in political, social and busi- | circles, = SUING THE COMMITTE Stockton’s Fouwrii of July Decorators Asked to Pay Bills. STOCKTON, Car., Nov. 14.—The dec- orating committee of the genera!

' SANTA MONICA, Car., Nov. 14.—Port Los Angzeles, Santa Monica, presents an exceedingly animated appearance with the world's commerce at her wharf.

Body Found Reclining on a Trunk in a Cabin. SUISUN, Car., Nov. 14.—The dead body of aman was found in a cabin on the Round Topranch, owned by W. and L. Pierce, this afternoon. The cabin is located in an out- of-the-way place, and was inhabited by | the notorious counterfeiter, Montelbano, | previous to his capture. | Under Sheriffi T. Robinson went to the | place this afternoon and found the body reclining on a trunk. It wasin a bad state of decomposition, rendering identification | difficult. The corpse had Iaid there several weeks, and is supposed to be that of the Portu- zuese whose carelessness caused the recent | i strous fire in Gordon Valley.

SANTA BARBARA, CaL, Nov. 14.— Warrants were vesterday issued for the ar- rest of James Barry and Tom McQuade, charged with uttering forged checks. VALLEYROAD TRACKS, Workmen Beyond the New Station, Escalon, Near Stockton. TWELVE MILES DISTANT. New Cargo of Material at San Francisco Has Come in Good Time. MAY BEAT THE FALL RAINS. Will Reach the Stanislaus River With the Steel Within the Next Thirty Days. STOCKTON, CAL., Nov. 14.—The Valley road track-layers have passed the new station of Escalon and are now working on toward the Stanislaus River. The line was nine and a half miles out two days ago. To-day it extends over twelve miles. The rails in the material- yards are being used up rapidly, and the arrival of the new cargo at San Francisco is timely. If the fall rains catch the workmen the season must come a month too early, for at the present rate it will be less than thirty days until the river is reached. Every department of the construction work is moving with clocklike regularity. CORRAL HOLLOW THE SCHEME. Rosenfeld’s New Road Commented On by the Stockton *¢ Mail.”’ STOCKTON, CaL., Nov. 14.—THE CALL’S story in regard to the new railroad scheme and the plans of the backers is generally accepted here as the correct version of the mysterious movements of the projectors of the line. At the office of Woods & Levin- sky, from which the news emanated, it was stated to-day that to-morrow night the leading memvers of the company would arrive in the city and a portion of the plans of the company be made public. 9 Mail this afternoon, after crediting T sLL with the story, makes the fol- lowing comments: ther the proposed line wilt come by way of Corral Hollow is still doubtiul. Rosenfeld & Son are interested in the new road, and it is said to have been their desire originally to run e across the tules, The route they favored along the sonth side of the San Joaquin inity of Brentwood, ce easterly across the swamp land to the vicinity of Bracks Landing. From there the; ould either build to this city or make connection with the Lodi Terminal road, converging the latter into & standard steamn railway and ex- tending 1t from Lodi to Bracks Landing. Whether this project has been abandoned or not remains to be seen. At present the indica- tions point to a line by way of Corral Hollow, but there would be some very expensive tun- neling and the line would be a greatdeal longer than one crossing the tules. If the Corral Holiow route is chosen it would be much easier to build to Modesto and connect with the Valley road there than to build to this city or its vicinity. The fact that Mr, Willey says Stockton is to be one of the ter- mini of the new road is construed by some as indicating that Rosenfeld’s original idea has been modified, and that the new line will be built across the reclaimed lands 1o this eity in- stead of to Bracks Landing as at first proposea. e MAY BREAK THE WILL. A Farmington Rancher’s Property in Dispute at Stockton. STOCKTON, Car., Nov. 14.—It is prob- able that a contest will be commenced against the will of M. J, Drais, the rich Farmington rancher, who died recently, leaving an estate valued at more than $200,000. The contestant is Madison James Drais, who was named after his father. There were four sons, but, singularly enough, the father’s namesake did not fare as well as the other members of the family, for he was cut off with merely the income from 200 acres. “Mat” Drais, as he is generally called, has employed J. A. Louttit to look after his interests, and it is said there is evi- dence tending to show that when Drais made his last testament he was under undue influence. The wealth which the old farmer left was not community prop- erty. The widow therefore will not get half if the will is broken, but only a third. This will leave two-thirds to be con- tested for by the four sons and oune daugh- ter of the deceased, so that each may get more than $25, et APl S Counterfeit Case at Stockton. STOCKTON, Carn., Nov. 13.—Secret Service Agent Harris telegraphed Sheriff Cunningham this morning to have D. D, Williams, Billy Anderson, T. Y. Read, William Bauer and Ben Moon in attend- ance to-morrow in the United States Dis- trict Court at the trial of M. D. Howell, charged with counterfeiting. All of the witnesses mentioned are for the prosecu- tion. Honorably Disch SANTA BARBARA, Carn, Nov. 14.— Pedro Montenaro, the Santa Ynez butcher arrested for cattle theft, has been honor- ably discharged, after a searching prelim- inary examination. Montenaro is a very popular man in the upper end of the county, and his discharge is hailed with enthusiasm by his friends. LIFE NOT WORTH LIVING. She Preferred Non-existence to an Existence Without Health. A dispatch from Chicago reports the sui- cide of a woman who, having suffered for a long time with malaria, became despond- ent. Calling to mind the many thousands who are afflicted with that obstinate and unrelenting foe of human heaith and hap- iness—malaria in its various hideous lorms—there seems urgent need to give still greater publicity to the one and only successful remedy. Peruvian Bark is known as the most powerful antimalarial article in medical science; the difficnlty is in introducing it into the system. In the concentrated form of quinine it is too violent in its action, and cannot be taken long enough continu- ously to eradicate malarial poisons without othewise disordering the system. Peruvian Bitters is a scientitic blend of Peruvian Bark with otber medicinal herbs and fine California Brandy. It is not only antimalarial in its action, but it is an abso- | lutely perfect tonic. It supplies the active | principle of Peruvian Bark in continuous small quantities, while it so tones and in- Vvigorates the entire system, especially the digestive functions, as to produce the best possible condition for a cure. There is no case on record where Peruvian Bitters have failed. Reader, if you arc not afflicted, perhaps some suffering friend or acquaint- ance will thank you to bring this to his notice. i Mack & Co., San Francisco. All dealers snd druggists.
