Wives and Mothers Empow- ered to Blacklist Hus- bands or Sons. Drinking Places Must Be Without Chalrs and Window Screens Are T-booed. POMONA, CaL, May 11.—Probably the most unique law governing the sale of in- texicanis and management of s1loons was passed by the City Council of Pomona to- day, and only awaits publication to be- come a law of this municipality. This the resuit of a hotly fought cani- paign that ended in the trinmph of the high-license advocates over the friends of prohibition. For two years Pomona has bzen the strictest prohibition tuwn in Cal- ifornia, and now, under the high-license policy, it will control saloous by the most drastic law ever enacted in this State for the regulation of the liquor business. The new law piovides that there shall be two saloons in Pomoaa, esch to pay $1000 license annually in udvance. Sa- loon-keepers must give $5000 bonds that they will not violate any of tbe provis:ons of the ordinance unuer which they dre licensed. They arc to hire but one bar- tender each, whose character shall be ap- proved by the City Council. The saloon- keepers must be residents of Pomona, and their bonasmen must be property-owners here. : The saloons shall be opened six days in the week, from 6 A, M. 1010 P. M. They shall have no frosted or paintea windows, or screens of any description, and there must be an unobstructed view of the bar from the street at all times. There can be no rear doors or rear entrances to the sa- loons. But one seat, chair or bench isal- lowed each place and that must be for the bartender and be placed behind the bar. Barrels must not be used for sitting or leaning places. No games of chance or cards will be per- mitted in the saloons. The saloon-keeper’s license is to be im- mediately revoked and Lis bondsmen ren- dered liable 1f liquor is sold to any person under legal age, or to any female, or to any citizen to whom the saloon-keever has been legally warned tfo sell no intoxicants. The City Trustees have alto provided that when any woman of legal age Who makes affidavit that she is dependent upon her son, brother or father for support, and that he is spending money in salooas here, the man’s name shall be posted back of the bar in each saloor and the license ol the saloon-keeper who sells to him there- after shall be revoked. Notwithstanding these provisions there are many men who wish to take ou' saloon licenses here and give the bonds required. PORTLArD JULOKES AKRESTED, Imprisoned on a Charge of Haring Accepted Bribes.

WASHINGTON, D. C., May 11 —The Navy Department proposes to abandon the policy of sending the two lead- ing cadets of each year's graduating class at Annapolis to Europe for an ad- vanced course of instruction in naval architecture. It will after June next edu- | cate its young men for the construction corps entirely at the schools of this coun- try. For several years it has been the custom to send one or two cadets each | year to the Royal School at Greenwich to be educated for two years at this Govern- ment's expense and then commission them as assistant naval constructors. In all instances the American lads have taken the highest honor of their class and in competition, too, Wwith men their seniors by many years. Of about twenty boys sent from the naval academy to these foreign sclools all are now mem bers of the construction corps, save five, who | bave died, aud one, Lewis Nixon, who | runs a ship-bullding plant. Three of the cadets aied from the heavy strain pro- | duced by efforts to maintain the records establisbed by the American boys, two having committed suicide and another dying soon aiter his return. Eight cadets are now taking the course abroad. Five of them have already been commissioned assistant naval constructors. Three will return in June. These young men are being educated at Glasgow and Paris. England some years ago positively declined to receive further American cadets at her naval schools and other advanced institutions of naval arch- itecture were selected. Lately she has re- | fused to permit cadets at Giasgow to in- | spect her ieading shipyard or receive any | information of u tecunical nature. Her re- fusal to grant courtesies is said to have been due to jealousy at the high stand taken by Americans over her own men, especially at Greenwich. Chief Naval Constructor Hichborn has written & statement showing the same | course can now be secured at either the Cornell or Boston schoo! of tectnology, and that it will be more patriotic to send cadets intended for the construction corps to one of these institutions than to for- eign schools, where the course is saia to be no better. ——— VENEZUELAN TREATY.

Legal Combat the Outcome of the Girls’ Fight Agalnst a Cor= poration. LARKSPUR, Cin, May 1L—The fight waged by the Brown sisters, Belle and Mary, against the American Land and Trust Company and C. W.| Wright, its president, in particular, took another turn to-day, and the wealthy land-owner and president of a big corpora- tion had warrants for tbe arrest of the young women sworn out in San Rafael. The scene of desiruction presents a sorry sight to-day. Where the fences of | the corporation stood all that remain are the stumps of a few posts. Evidently the Sausalito workmen who made the raid | yesterday were not experts, for the ragged | edges of the stumps present an ugly ap- | pearance. In atangied heap on the rignt- hand side of the road, twisted into a con- fuzed mass of posts and barb wire, lies the remains of the fence, while a few feet dis- tant stands the house which was moved clear across the road and out of the way. All is quiet to-day. Both factions are placing their reliance in the legal proczed- ings already instituted. President Wright's bands are tied, so far as replac- ing the shanty or rebuilding the fence, by the injunction obtained by the Brown girls from Superior Judge F. M. Ange- lotti. This morning President Wright jour- neved to the county seat and visited the | hall of justice. He claims that an attempt is being made to steal the land from him, and this, he says, he will resist. Hereat Larkspur every one sides with the Browns and a row almost occurred to-day because an employe of the land company stood up for Wright. This was Tim Murphy, who looked down tte barrel of Marshal Creed’s revolver yesterday. After yesierday’s ex- perience Murphy had enough, and to-day he has even quit haviog an opinion. However, le thought it well to swear out a warrant to-day before Justice Gardner of San Rafael charging Jonn E. Creed of Sausalito with assault to murder witu a deadly weapon. He also swore out one against Mary Brown for the same offense. C. W. Wright was not so generous in nis actions. He went before Justice Gardner and got warrants out for thear- rest of Mary Brown, Belle Brown and lit- tle Peter Keegan, charging them ail with assault with a deadly weapon, for be it re- membered the clothes ot Mr. Wright were torn from his back by the athletic girls who are fighting for what they claim are their rights. His watch is broken, and the humiliation and the shock to his dig- nity are to be considered aiso. The arrests will be made to-morrow, | whea the tric will bs brought before the | justice. Some sensational stories are promised and more details of the battle | which took place in thie wooded canyon | near Larkspur will be related. | To-night both parties are awaiting the | morrow’s legal conflict. ARIZONA’S BANDIT CHASE. Bloodhounds Close Upon the Trail of Parker, the Escaped Prescott Conv.ct. PRESCOTT, Ariz, May 1l.—Advices received from the posse after the crimi- | nals who escaped on Sunday from the | Prescot jail, killing Lee Norris in their | flight, are that the jugitives have sepa- | rated. The Mexican, Cornelia, is believed to have started for the Santa Maria mines in Western Arizona, where he has friends. Miller, who was wounded, is undoubtedly in hiding in the Bradshaw Mountsins. Parker, the Atlantic and Pacific train- robber and the man who shot Norris, has a reward of over $5000 on his head, and is | being pursued vicorously. Fully fifty of the most exp>rienced men in Arizona are on his trail. After the fight with the two Deputy Sheriffs in the Bradshaws, Parker rode off to the east- ward, crossing the Black Canyon road in the direciion of Bloody Basin, in the Verde Valley, and of Tonto Basin. If ne tries to hide himself in the fastnesses of Bloody Basin he will undoubtedly soon be captured, for two bloodhounds, the | property of J. D. Moore of this city, are with the trailers and appear to have no difficulty in keeping the scent. Cowboys are joiniug in the search and several posses are watching the passes into Tonto Basin. The officers are confi- dent that Parker will be taken within two days, though probably as a corpse. There is no doubt that he will make a fight 1o the death =t Willowe Editor Denied a Rehearing.
