4 [0S MGELES. GETS THE MONE Forty-Two Cents All Thif Is Left of the Buelna Estate, COSTLY ADMINISTRATION The Property Was Valued at Twenty Thousand When Its Owner Died. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS IN COUBT“ No One Appears to Claim the Resi- due and It Goes to the County. LGS ANGELES, Car., Feb. 4.—Encar- nacion Buelna died in December, 1870, just a little over a quarter of a century ago. At that time he had an 'estate worth about $20,000. If Encarnacion were alive to-day he would undoubtedly be greatly disappointed at the way his $20,000 has been scattered around. For over twenty-five years his estate has been going through administration, and it has had a very expensive trip. Its jour- neys are now over, for yesterday Public Administrator Frank M. Kelsey finally settled it up’ in Department 2 of the Superior Court. Of the original estate there remained just 42 cents. Nobody could be found to claim it and the Public Administrator did not know what to do with it. The sum was not a large one, still it had to go somewhere, so Judge Clark made an order directing Mr. Kelsey to pay the 42 cents into the county treasury. This Mr. Kel- sey did, and thus ends the chapter. Litam A MUST PAXY HIS WARD, Guardian Taylor’s Accounts Investigated by the Cowurt. LOS ANGELES, CaL., Feh.4.—In the matter of the guardianship of Annie E. Taylor Superior Judge Clark to-day made an order striking out items amounting to $640°in the account of Guardian Taylor. This was a case in which the guardian failed to give the court an accounting of his trust for some time, and was finally ordered to do so. He then put in an ac- count which showed, on its face that his ward was indebted to him about $290. After Judge Clark had trimmed down the account it showed that Guardian Taylor owed his ward about $400. This Gnardian Taylor will have to pay, or his bondsmen will be sued.

GUILTY OF GROSSEST FRAUDS. | Officials of a- Corporation Scored by a De- cision in the Maryl/and Court of Appeals. BALTIMORE, Mp., Feb. 4.—A sensation was caused in financial circles ‘to-day. by the opinion of the Maryland Court of Ap- peals at Annapolis in the case of Amy Du- puy and Herbert Dupuy, her ahusband, of Pittsburg, Pa., against the Transportation and Terminal Company of Baltimore. The case came from the Circuit Court of Balti- more. . “The matter involved was a bill for a re- ceiver for the Transportation and Ter- minal Company of Baltimore City, a de- funct corporation that had already passed through insolvency with Winfield J. Tay- lor, a well-known lawyer in Baltimore, as trustee. Mr. and Mrs. Dupuy had invested $60,000 in this enterprise, which at the time pur- vorted to have the control of the Maryland Central Kailroad, the York and Peach Bottom Railroad, some extensive coal lands and a large part of the contract for the building of the belt railroad. It is said that the total amount of claims similar to Mrs. Dupuy’s exceeds $1,500,000, a large number of Pittsburg people haying been induced to invest. The president of the cempany was Wi liam Gilmer, who has been for many years | tives from other States. Other gentlemen one of the best-known rallroad men in Baltimore. The chief promoter of ‘the Terminal Company was John Henry Miller of Balti- more. ‘The Court of Appeals finds that these two gentlemen have been zuil_ty of the grossest frauds, not only in their transac- tions with Mr. and Mrs. Dupuy, but in the whole conduct of the business of the Term- inal Company. 2 RS WITHDRAWAL OF HARRISON. It Is . Believed That the Strength of the Indiana Delegation Will Be 5 Divided. WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 4—Leading Reputilicans of the House who were spoken to to-day do not as a rule feel that General Harrjson's withdrawal from the Presi- dential race will materially affect the pros- pects of the other candidates. The Ohio Representatives, of course, believe that McKinley will secure the support, of the Indiana delegation. | Thisopinion is shared by Representa- believe that the Indiana delegation will divide its strength among the various can- didates. The Indiana Republicans—if the members of Congress from that State fairly reflect the sentiments of their con- stituents—while believing General Har- rison to be sincere, indulee the hope that an exigency may arise which may require the convention to nominate him. Many BSenators declined to-day to dis- cuss the effect of the withdrawal of ex- President Harrison from the list of Presi- dential candidates, but the champions of other candidates on the floor of the Senate wereevidently pleased at the action of Mr. Harrison. & NEW YORK, N. Y., Feb. 4—The Mail and Express this afternoon printed the following: Senator John M. Thurston of Nebraska, who was among to-day’s ar- rivals at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, ex- pressed considerable surprise' at General Harrison’s letter forbidding the use of his name before the St. Louis convention, ‘“There can be no doubt of the General’s earnestness, however,”” said the Senator. “He is a perfectly sincere man, and those who know him: best will understand that he means just what he says. He is out of the field, and no man who values *his'good will should attempt to drag him in again. General Harrison’s withdrawal will make no change in the political situation in Ne- braska,” 3 SElg s = OF INTEREST 7O THE COAST. Mineral Lands Classification Bitl to Be Reported Favorably. WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 4.—Rep- resentatives Johnson, Loud, Maguire and Barham and Tirey L.

There Is a Good Demand in the German Marke « WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb, 4.—Ger- many offers a good market for California dried fruits, according to information fur- nished the State Department by Frank H. Mason, United States Consul-General at Frankfort-on-the-Main. Sun-dried Califor- nia apricots, peaches and pears, he says, sell at retail in Frankfort and neighborin, towns-for from 22 to 25 cents a pound, un§ their use in Germany, even at these prices, is steadily increasing. Mason points ont. ghat there is a margin of 16 cents'between the price the grower gets in California for each pound of this fruit and the price he can obtain in Ger- many, thus giving him a chance for large profits by shipping his sun-dried product abroad. " The cost of the frmt when landed at Hambul&g or Bremen, freight and duty paid, would not exceed 9 cents per pound, #xclusive of packing and handling. e L CENSURE BAYARD, The Resolution V. . _.ot Recelve Immie- diate Consideration.

WINTER SPORT AT TRUCKEE, A Ffigid Ozone Restores to the .Ice Palace Its Beauty. INCOMING OF VISITORS. Each Train Adds Its Quota to the Number of Carnival Guests, - PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE. Uniform Rank Expected to Parade on the Knights of Pythias Day. TRUCKEE, Carn., Feb. 4.—To-night’s train from the west brought several visi- tors to the carnival, and each succeeding’ day brings its quota of sight-seers. Spray- ing'was kept up all of last night and sey- eral inches of ice was added to the walls of the palace. An improvement in the palace which means the outlay of consid- erable money was commenced to-day. It is the replacing of the rough pine boards which form the inside wall of the skating rink with dressed lumber. This will be painted -in carnival colors and will add greatly to the appearance of the interior of the palace. Crowds are sliding the toboggan to-night and all pronounce it in capital condition. From present indications it will be hard for Truckeeites to part with the slide after winter is over, as they never seem to tire of this sport. The skating is good and all the nearby ponds are covered with a thick coating of ice. People take advantage of this, and skating varties are quite the thing. » Posters announcing the excursions to take place -on Saturday and Sunday are out and parties are expected from San Jose, San Francisco, Stockton, Bacramento and all the cities along the line of the rail- road. L A letter to-day informed the manage- ment of the intention of the Knights of Pythias grand officers to be present, and as Saturday will be their day there will probably be a grand parade of the Uniform Rank. ‘C. F. McGlashan, colonel of this division, has mapped out an extensive programme for the entertainment of the visitors, and it will be carried out ona magnificent scale. The weather is clear and cold to-night and it is favorable to the success of the carnival. STUDENTS ARE. DMEBI&G. Discipline Must Be Maintained at Lake Forest Academy. CHICAGO, I, Feb. 4.— Student anarchy broke out in Lake Forest Academy yesterday morning, resulting in an exodus of the boys for their homes. Thirty came into Chicago on a night train, thirty more packed their trunks to follow this mern- ing, and of the thirty remaining it is paid at least half will go home when they get money for car fare. Itisa case of disciplining the faculty, the .boys. say, for refusing to reinstate three’ suspended students. The three students were expelled for insubordination, caused by the faculty disciplining them. A pillow fight was followed by a cat-call ;arty in the room of George Burchell. rofessor William F. Brewer, who is hardly older than the students, tried to restore order.. The boys then locked bim out, blew out the lights and the notse increased. When he learned the names of the dozen boys in the room, Professor Brewer gave demerits to Rusfield and Casey. - They were also forbidden to g0 to church on Sunday night; which is account- ed a grievous punishment by the students of that Presbyterian settlement. They protested, and along with Burchell the host of the noise-makers were pronounced gufléydd insubordination and were sus- pended. ‘‘Saturday night's conduct was the climax of growing insubordination,” said Principal Smith. *“We must maintain discipline although it take every student from school.” —_———— MRS. DOUD WAS JEALOUS. That Is Why Sho Fired @ Shot at Lillian Swayne. NEW YORK; N. Y., Feb, 4,—At 7:45 o'clock last night Harriet Doud called at the stage entrance of Daly’s Theater and asked for Lillian Swayne, who 1s employed by Mr. Daly as a soubrette. Miss Swayne responded, and immediately on her making her appearance Mrs. Doud drew a revolver and discharged it at Miss Bwayne, but fortunately the bullet went wide of the mark. Special Patrolman Hanley, who was in the vicinity at the time, ran up to where the shot was fired and arrested Mrs. Doud and her husband, who were standing on the steps of the stage entrance. He took them to the. police station, and on being searched a.38-caliber_revolver, one cham- ber empty, was found on Mrs. Doud. Miss Swayne's father, Professor Swayne, Wwhen_ asked about the cause of the shoot- ing said there was probably a little flirta- tion between his daughter and Mr, Doud, and that Mrs. Doud was jealous. Mrs. Doud will be given a hearing in the Police Court to-morrow. —— v CAPZAIN FREITCH’S VOXAGE, 8o Sucoessful That the Skipper Will Scei Greater Fentures.

BOSTON, Mass., Feb. 4 —Aftera journey through Italy James Wheatland Smith and Mrs. Francis Lee Higginson, wife of the Boston banker of that name, who- fig- ured in the sensational elopement of a few months ago, have once more set their fee on Uncle Sam’s soil. 2 An intimate friend of Mr. Smith and Mrs. Higginson stated to-day that the object of the visit was to arrange prelimi- naries for the contest of the divorce libel filed in the Superior Court of Suffolk County by Francis L. Higginson, Mrs, Higginson will fight the libel to the bitter end, and it is alleged that the facts which will be brought before the tribunal will be interesting.

DORRE IN “CARMEN." Bizet's Charming Work Crowds the Baldwin Theater. 7 ‘There was a big audience at the Baldwin Theater to greet ‘‘Carmen” last night, The opera may be said to have made a dis tinctly good impression. Thea Dorre is on her native heath, so to speak, as Carmen. Vocally and histrion- ically she shows herself to be an artist all through the work, though she rises to _her granden height in the card scene, where er terror and superstitious foreboding are re;;ressed with wonderful art, - both in yoice and gesture. Her singing of “Thou Lov'st Me Not,” earlier in the work, was 8lso marked by remarkable witchery and sweetness. I{aedlens to say . Dorre won much applause.

An extraordinary tale of the revenge of swallows upon . sparrows . who had robbed them of their nest is told by the correspondent of a German paper. The owner of a garden outside Stutigart ob- | served with “surprise that there was no opening in the nest which some swallows bad built undera beam in his summer. Louse. Eager to find the reason of .the absence of a door in the swaflow’s family dwelling, he took a ladder and inspected the nest. Cutting it open with his pocket- knife he fonnd in it five little sparrow fiegldghngs, all of them dead. It was evident that the swallows, by wa; of punishing the invaders ' who hai seized the ~ house, had taken ad-. vantage of the absence of jather and mother sparrow, and- had deliberatel; ‘“‘masoned” up the o ing in the ?;::.!. thereby stiffin, tng 2 of robber bird!g. st GAVIN MckaB ON - CHRIS BUCKLEY. Mr. Sam Rainey Has Also ‘ Come in for Criti- cism, THE JUNTA IS DEFINED. A Budget of Some Interesting and Timely Political Epigrams, SAM AND CHRIS ARE DOOMED. It Is Said That the Fire Department Is Eept Very Busy Escaping From Politics. The exact position of the Junta in municipal politics has been clearly set forth by Gavin McNab, ‘When the Junta was organized by the Democracy it was heralded to the com- munity at large that one Christopher Buckley and another ‘Sam Rainey, who bad a hankering after fire apparatus, plugs, etc., would be smitten upon their political hearts.until they went down in the contest waged against them. One of the foremost men in this fight ‘dgainst corruption, ballot-stuffing, corpo- ration control, Buckleyphobia and Rainey- rabies was, and is to-day, Gavin' McNab, whose tongue and arm have been lifted again and again against the influence and prestige of these two bosses. Last night Mr. McNab, after due thought and care in_the use of words, gave up.the following, which appears to be a clear and concise answer to most of the questions that are likely to be asked regarding the intention of the Junta as regards Sam and Chris: 5 : “There {s no change,” said he, ‘“‘in what is termed the Junta toward Buckley or. Rainey. We are opposed to both or either. There 18 but one thing that is worse than Buckleyism and that is Buckleyism and Raineyism. There are worse people than Rainey — Buckley and' Rainey for instance. Those people who have refused to ‘belieye that we were sincere in our professed attitude to- ward Buckley and Rainey were mistaken. The organization presided over-by Colonel ‘W. P, bullivan has been just as deter- mined to resist interference on the part of Rainey as on the part of Buckley, A domination of Rainey would be an evil less in quantity but not differing in qual. ity from a domination of Buckley. ‘It is true that our organization has had friendship, sympathy and tacit support from friends of the Fire Department, . It also true that Rainey hasalways been con- sidered potential in the affairs of thatin- stitution, but Chairman Sullivan hasmade the Fire Department one of the brightest and best-administered features of our municipal government. He declares that his only desire is to have the Fire Depart- ment left alone. “If I may use a paradox, as we under- stand the Fire Department’s position, its only perticipation in politics is to_prevent itself being dragged into politics. That is clear enough to accommodate all the friends of good government and good citi- zenship generally;, and we have accepted Bullivan’s statement as defining the pesi- tion of the Fire Department, and our or- ganization expects the department and its friends to live up to their promises. “Iam only one among many in the or- ganization and can only speak from views of leaders as I have heard them expressed. On one point, however, I can speak as an individual. I, more largely than any other person, have been in communication with members of the State committee throughout the State. They are nearly all friends of mine. These men are unani- mously against Buckleyism in any shape or form and also against Raineyism. “I have assured these men that when our organization comes before them and asks for recognition it would come before that body with clean hands, not asking the committee to choose between Buck- leyism and Raineyism in any form, but offer our organization composed of men plighted to honest government and de- cency and opposed to all forms of bossism. I am assurred by membersof the State committee with whom I have conversed that an’ oreanization partaking of the character that these men have shown would not be recognized at all.” “Has not Rainey many friendsin the Junta?’ was asked of -Mr. McNab. “Well, yes, perhaps 10 per cent of them are Rainey’s friends, but they will be lost in the rank and filé of the organization. .That is bound to occur in all new move- ments. It is a safe thing to say, though, of the Buckley organization that ten- tenths of them are Buckleyites. “There is one fthing in relation to the | Junta that I want to call attention to, and that is that none of the. members of it are office seekers or candidates for office. It they win their only satisfaction will be in knowing that they have done good work in the matter of bringing about a good government, ¢ ‘‘The real enemy of good government is the conservative citizen. If he be rich he prefers a boss, because wealthy men have many interests of such character that they -profit out of public disadvantage. “In a few words a boss is the bridge over which the aristocratic evil-doer ecan reach and traffic with the criminal.” —_— e MARSHALL, THE FAMOUS.

Ana one 1s lulled ‘to sleep by the tune of “And the Band Played On,” which comes floati through the air from some adjacent ‘“iree an easy.” ‘Yet with all the bad whisky, bad women and worse men, there are few fights and no murders. There is a good reason for this quiet state of affairs. The notorious Jim Marshall, who is credited with being the most expert pistol shot in the West, is the Town Marshal, and the hard char- aclers who infest every mining camp had sooner face his satanlc majesty than look into the cold gray eyes of Jim Marshall. He rules the camp with an iron hand. A person found with g revolver on him is heavily fined, and it is doubtful if a miner in the entire district car- ries one, The city of Victor, four miles distant, where the famous Independence and Portland mines are located, is quite the reverse as regards law and order. ' Murdersare frequent, while savage fights are of daily oscurence. In closing I might add that Cripple Creek has its Press Club—about forty-eight members.

The Purpose Is to ‘Supply the Public With 24,000,000 Gallons of Water Daily. James A. Johnson, an attorney repre- senting J. 8. Hansborough and others, sent in a petition to the Board of Super- visors yesterday to be permitted to lay mains and pipes through the streets of San Francisco for the purpose of supply- ing the City with water from Tembladera Creék, the outlet of the Castro lakes, near Monterey. Mr. Hansborough recently took up water rights on the creek to . the extent of 5000 inches. The plan is to bring the water to San Francisco through San Jose, supply- ing thatcity and residents along the line with the pure water of the southern reser- Voir. It is proposed to utilize a 60-inch iron pipe for the purpose, pumping the water with safficient force to carry 1t to a desti- nation and still leave a pressure of eighty )Iounds to the square inch at San Francisco. Che intention is to follow the line of the Monterey division of the Southern Pa- cific Company as closely as possible. Mr. Johnson’s letter to the Board of Supervi- sors is as follows: To the Honorable Board of Supervisors—GEN- TLEMEN 1 anln{; recently taken up and lo- cated for myself and associates, under the statutes and laws of the State of California, the water of the Tembladera, the same being theoutflow of the Castro lakes, near Castro- ville, Monterey County, Cal, and believing that we can supply this City with an abupd- ance of pure, fresh water for every purpose de- sired, we submit the same for your considera- tion, bereby agreeing to abide by any reason- able conditions you may impose. That is, if yeu will grant us. the power and authority to lay down mainsand pipes through the stretts of the City, we 'will supply city and the - puplic’ with 24,000, gailons of pure, fresh water per day. Or, if your honorable board should prefer, we will -sell the rights to the use of the said water for a reasonable sum to the City. Respectfully, JANES A.
