6 FRESNO CHILD FATALLY SHOT. Carolina Lehmann Hit by a Charge Intended for Her Father. FIRED UPQN AT NIGHT. Dastardly Crime of an Unknown Man on a Highway Near the City. SHOOTS TWICE AT A CARRIAGE The Driver Escapes S ight'y Wounded, but His Young Daughter May Die. as probably fatally shot about 9 o’clock last night by an unknown man, who undoubtedly intended to murder her father. Mr. Lehmann was on the way to | his sawmill in Crane Valley, Mader: County, and his daugbter, who is only 13 years of age, was with him. As they were driving along Blackstone avenue, three miles north of this city, a man who met him on the road fired at them twice with a shotzun. Lehmann received only one shot in the hip from the first discharge, but the whole of the second charge struck bis daughter. The gun was loaded with No. 2shot, and twenty of these pierced the girl’s back, head and arms. Lehmann was driving a fractious team. He was in front of Edgerly’s place on Blackstone auenue then he saw the man | coming ou foot with & shotgun over his shoulder. Lebmann says he heard the! fellow whistling before he saw him. His horses shied at sight of the stranger and Lehmann was forced to give his attention | 10 the team. Just as the man was passing | the carriage he turned and tired two shot at the occupants. The horses became un managesble and before they could b stopped the would-be assassin was left considerable distance in the r ar and he | could not be seen. The girl then told her father that she was shot. Lehmann felta | stinging sensation in bis hip and knew | that he also had been hit. | Lehmann says he has no idea who did the shooting. He believes that the second | & payable in coin in foreign countries expect to be paid in gold.” said Mr. Spreckels, “‘and they should be. An American dollar should be worth 100 cents in Europe as well as at home. This 60-cent business will never do. It would ruin our credit and bankrupt the country.

The Southern Pacific Company Restrained From Violating the Terms of a Franchise. SAN BERNARDINO, Civ, July 11.— The injunction issued by Judge Campbell to prevent the conversion of the Soutuern California Motor Road between San Ber- nardino and Coiton into a standard South- ern Pacific track and grade was served upon Colonel Wilson, tbe right-of-way agent, and Mr, Deyarmon, the local agent, late last night. These officers deny that it was the intention of the Southern Pacific to lay heavy rails or change the grade un- til an amended franchise had been granted by the Board of Supervisors. A petition to that effect is now before that body. They assert that the company is willing to bandon the Colton-avenue line, for which t paid $125,000, provided a right of way 18 en by citizens over another route. By the terms of the injunction ten days were given the company to make answer why the injunction snould not be made erpetual. The question is exciting much interest among the people generally, and especially among the residents along Col- eon avenue. This is one of the finest roads tn the county, and the adjoining property- owners claim that the Southern Pacific’'s encroachment would practically ruin their Dossessions. H. E. Huntington, vice-president of the Southern Pacific Company, who recently returned from the southern part of the State, appeared to be little disturbed in | mind over the injunction proceedings in- irated at San Bernardino. They are going to a great deal of use- s troubie Cown there,” he remarked esterday. “Their injunction don’t give us the least bitof anxiety, They don’t know what they are about; that is all there is to it. We can lay any kind of rails we please along that road, and operate any kind of trains that we may decide to put on. That is a county road, and the gen- eral law of the State permits us to con- truct and operate a railroad on any ounty road in the State.”’ ———— DROWNED AT LOVELOCK.

When her baby brother was pushed into a stream by a playful dog, little Millie, who was but four years old, boldly plunged into the water and lost her life in an attempt to rescue him. charge, which his danghter received, was | intended for himself. He had a slight diffi- culty with his laborers at the mills, but he says he cannot imagine who would want to kill him. He noticed as he passed that the fellow was of medium size, heavy in weight and wore a white shirt, Bheriff Scott went to the scene of the shooting immediately after it occurred, but could find no trace of the stranger. The authorities have been working on the case to-day, but discovered no clew. The tracks of the man with the gun were fol- lowed from the road into an adjoining vineyard, but there they were lost. The people are much excited over the dastardly shooting of the little girl. It is feared she will die. CLAUS SPRECKELS TALKS Out and Out for McKinley and Says He Will Sweep the Country. Tiilman and Altgeld Ought to Be Hanged and Senator White Needs Scolding. NEW YORK, N. Y., July 1L.—Claus Spreckels, the sugar king of California. with his wife and daughter, arrived here from Europe last night by the American liner 8t. Louis. He intends to open & new | sugar factory on the Pacific Coast, and by means of improved machinery will Ppro- duce 3000 tons of sugar a day, at a cost of $12,000, which will be paid to the beet farmers of California and peighboring States. Mr. Spreckels declares that here- after all the sugar usea in the country will be raised here and made out of beets. He declares that Be is an out-and-out ;McKioley man, and was sure, after hear- ng of Brvan's nomination on a silver platform, that the Republican party nomi- nee wotild sweep the country. “The hoiders of Upited States bonds town was the accidental drowning on Monday last of Millie and George Love- lock, children of Mr.and Mrs, Frederick Lovelock, and grandchildren of George Lovelock, the founder of the town. George, a sturdy little feliow of 31{ sum- mers, was playing on the banks of the creek with his favorite dog, when the animal playfully pusbed bkim into the water. His sister Millje just one year his senior plunged bolaly into the stream, heroically bent on saving her brother, and she, 100, was drowned. The loud hnkinf of the dog attracted the attention of neighbors. The mother of the children arrived in time to see thelife- less body of her daughter floating down ihe creek. The children were buried on Wednesday last, the entire town attending the funerai. Their bodies were placed in the same casket which was smotaered beneath the many florai offerings of the friendsof the be- reaved parents. TSR FALLS FROM A WINDOW.

LANDS A FORLORN HOPE. Placed Behind the Horse After It Had Been Beaten in Tyvo Heats. HELENA SHOWS SOME SPEED. The Daughter of Electioneer Takes a Purse and Lowers Her Record to 2:14 -2 NAPA, Car, July 11.—The crack side- wheelers, W. Wood and Waldo J, did not come together here to-day in the free-for- all pace, and great was the disappoiutment of the big crowd that assembled atthe rack to see the gray ghost of Santa Paula and his bay rival do battle. Baywood, the third entry in the event, was bronght out with & leg wrapped in bandages and was excused by the judges. The directors of the society then decided to declare the race off, and bitter disappointment was depicted on all faces. However, the other two events on the card, the 2:19 trot and the 2:18 pace, furnished sport enough to Pplease the most fastidions. In the latter race a smash-up livenea up things and added additional luster to the florimu uncertainties of the racing game. n the third heat, while Esteile Wilkes, Our Boy and Colonel Benton were fighting for the pole, Banders, behind the firs- named mare, attempted to get through a knothole and succeeded in smashing the ‘wheel of Our Boy's bike. Bunch, the driver ot the latter horse, ‘was compelled to drop the reins, and with the demolished sulky striking his heels Our Boy started on a wild run around the course. Fortunately he did not collide with any of the other starters, and finally stopped of his own accord, considerably the worse for wear ana tear. The bike be- hind Estelle Wilkes was disabled, and as the judges thought Sanders at fault he was declared distanced. Our Boy started in the next heat. The 2:19 trot, which was first on the card, was taken in straight heats by Helena, & matron from the Palo Alto stock farm and the dam of two fine-look- ing foals, one by Wildaut, the otber by Dexter Prince. She is a daughter of the immortal r, &0d Wwas again nisead in training this year through the tent and foresight of Frank Covey, ’ the manager of the great breeding estab- lishment, Helena trotted each heat like a veteran of the grand eircuit, reducing her record ffom 2:18Y4 to 2:M414, adding afh- otber Electioneer to the 2:15 list. In the pools the mare sold a red-hot favorite over the field. Nutwood Wilkes was the conteading horse in the first two heats, and his splen- did showing assuredly reflects credit on his colored driver, W. Ceasel, to whom the horse's present fine form is due, after oth- ers bad said “he wouldn’t do.” The pace was the liveliest sort of 8 bet- ting atfair. In the ovening pools Colonel Renton sold for $10, Our Boy $10 and field $7. Our Boy drew tlie pole, but failed to hold his position. Alife Cresco.a20to1 shot for the heat, took. the lead on mak- ing the turn down the backstretch and ‘was never headed, passing the wire three lengths ahead oP Colonel Benton, in 2:13%4. The winner, Allie Cresco, now sold fa- vorite at $10 for the next heat, with the Coionel next in demand at $8, and the field bringine $7. The danghter of Cresco found no difficulty in repeating the trick, and took the second heat in 2:15, Colonel Benton being uncertain on his pins. After this the judges did not like Driver Crawforth's efforts behind Colonel Benton, and the noted reinsman, Dick Havey, was substituted. In the third heat Havey steered clearof the smash-up between Es- telle Wilkes and Our Boy, and got the Colonel to the wire first »a v winner i 2:184, with the runaway, Our Boy. second. Tue betting again switched in Benton's favor, and Havey landed the necessary two Leats and captured first money. Aliie Cresco took second money and Our Boy third. This. is the second horse at the meeting that Havey has brought in after the task looked fruitless, and ne is now considered the peer of all the driverson tue California circuit.
