LOS ANGELES, Car., May 12.—The seven Chinese coolies who landed illegally at San Juan Capistrano the other day and were captured by Deputy United States Marsbal Forster were examined by United States Commissioner Van Dyke to-day and ordered deported. It was snown that the coolies had come from Mexico ina schooner, the captain of which had bar- gained to land them in the United States. He landed them all right, but they fell | into the hands of the waiting officer, who wanted to catch the smuggling schooner, | but had no way of reaching her. The | coolies will be taken to San Francisco to- morrow to be dispatched to China. g Scale on the Fruit Tre LOS ANGELES, CiL, May 12.—There is said to be much scale on the citrus fruit treesin this county, and prompt action 1s required to check the pests. The County Horticultural Commissioners, _J. M. Thomas, E. H. Rusk and C. G. Kellogg, are now engaged in s careful inspeciion of the fruit trees, and in some localities will resort to heroic measures. No pait of the county is sefe from the three great enemies of the citrus trees—red, black and purple scale—though in some sections the | pest is doing greater damage than in | others. There is a_good deal of purple e at and around Downey. | MILLERTON DAM WASHED AWAY. Third Coliapse of the Structure Built to Drain a Pool With a Golden Bed. FRESNO, Car., May 12—For the third time & portion of the daw built by the Ohio Gold Mining Company across the | San Joaquin River, about three miles ove Millerton, been washed away. Last Thursday night the top of the struc- ture, to 8 depth of about ten feet, was car- ied away by the stream, which is now ranning very high. The dam was thirty- six feet in ht and ten feet off the top amounts 1o a big loss. The dam was built to turn the stream through a channel constructed around a section of t.e river bed, where, it is be- eved, there are rich deposits of goia. When the water was low in the summer and the artificial course could convey the whole stream it was proposed to mine the | gravel in the dry riverbed. Had the dam stood for another mouth the company | would have then commenced active opers- tions to dig out the wealth whick was to | repay it for the expenaiture of $18,000 and three years of hard work. The place where the yeliow metal is sought under such great disadvantages is at the point where Fine Gold Creek emp- ties its flood waters from the foothills in the winter time into the river. A rock ation at the mouth of the creek turns the tributary stream ai t currents of the river, strong eddv. This eddy is supposed to have caused a wonderfuily rich deposit of awriferous gravel, broughi down by both the river and the creek. Miners have always insisted that great wealth lay at | the bottom of the pool. Itis not known as yet whether the dam will be recon- i structed. e | 5T4NFORD H0>MOES DOLE. | Elected to @ Place in the Pacific Athletic { Associntion. | BTANFORD UNIVERSITY, Car, May {12.—At the meeting of the student body { athletic committee to-day Charles Dole was elected to represent Stanford in the | Pacific Athletic Association, to take the place left vacant by the graduation of D.

ND LONGER DAEAD THEVEQU1 WhOOP Mexicans at Last Con- clude a Treaty With the Tribe. Peace Articles to Be Signed With Solemn Ceremony at Tetacombiate. After Nearly a Hundred Years of Strife the Braves WIill Bury the Hatchet. HERMOSILLO, MEx1co, May 12.—At & small town, Tetacombiate, in Western Sonora, on the coming Saturday will oc- cur the ceremony whereby the Yaqui na tion will acknowledge allegiance to the republic of Mexico. For over a hundred years this brave tribe has defied and de- feated all the forces the republic could send into Western Sonora. Thousands of Mexican soldiers have been slaughtered in the warfare, but at no time have the Fecderal forces been victorions. The tribesmen have been merciful after their victories, They are devout Catholics, and the warfare on their part has at no time been attended by the ususl Indian atroci- ties. For a year or more, under the instruc- tions of President Diaz, Governor Ramon Corraland Military Commandant General Luis Torres of Sonora have been treating with the tribe for peace. Their overtures have been accepted, and success has at- tended their efforts throughout. A great assembly of the Yaquis h been held, and the terms of amnesty of fered by the Mexican Government have been accepted. A proclamation of *zen- eral and glorious peace” has therefore been issued by Juan Maldonado, chief of the tribs and commander of its army. This proclamation has been formally read in the eight cities of the Yaqui nation and has been dispatched by carriers throughout Northern Mexico. The sign- ing of the treaty will be made an occasion of the utmost solemnity and will be fol- lowea by a fiesta, in which thousands of Mexicans anda Yaquis will participate in friendiy union. The peace is especially advantageous to & syndicate of New York capitalists now constructing, with Indian labor, an im- mense canal in the Rio Yaqui Valley to irrigate a million-acre concession pro- cured from the Mexican Government.

Jail Life Beginning to Show Iis Effect Upon Millionaire Peter A Finigan. SAN RAFAEL, CAL, May 12.—Down in the recesses of the County Jail, in the basement of Marin County’s Courthouse, almost forgotten and growing thinner every day, is Colonel Peter A. Finigan, mine-owner and breeder of fine horses. For over a month now the man who is reputed to.be a millionaire has been tn the custody of Sheriff Harrison. The close confinement is beginning to tell upon him, and the little exercise he obtains has not been conducive to good bealth and fine spirits. The curiosity of the public has compelled him to resort to unusual methods in order (o remain in obscurity. Outsiders would persist in coming to the door of Colonel Finigan’s cell and with cool impertin ence glare at him through the opening in the iron barricade. Finally, when this had been carried to extremes, the wealthy prisoner closed the openings by spreading a news- paper over them, and then the vuigar gaze of the multitude no longer annoyea him In the County Jail with Finigan there is but one other prisoner—a Chinzman, said to be insane. He occupies the famous “haunted cell” and says he hears voices in the night. But the days of Colonel Finigan’s con- finement are coming to an end. The $750 which he must pay in order to go free will be forthcoming and the trial of the divorce suit will follow. It is said that the release of the weaithy prisoner will be effected this week. When seen to-day Colonel Finigan was uncommunicative in re- gard to his chances for leaving his prison nome. “It's not =0 bad,” he said, but it can be plainly seen that the confinement, the wantof fresh airand the worry are teiling upon him. He wears dark glasses to shield nt, for the the light is stron As soon as the §750 is paid Colonel Fin. igan may rewurn to his daughters at Hotel Rafael, but not beiore. e el CONVICTED AT GRANTS PASS. Melson Found Guilty of the Murder of His Mining Party. GRANTS PASS, Oz., May 11.—Lemuel Me!son was to-day convicted of murder in the first degree for the killing of Charles Perry. He will be sentenced on Friday. During the spring of last year, Perry and Melson passed through here to work at a gold mine in Del Norte County, Cal., Later in the day the two men were seen at Waldo, but no trace of Perry could be found after that. Melson appeared at Shelly Creek late that night and disposed of a watch and revolver, which were after- ward identified as having belonged to Perry. Melson said that Perry had changed bis mind about going to the mine, and had gone to Poriland, making him a present of the watch and revolver. A friend having written to Perry at Smith River Corners and received no reply, started an investigation which re- sulted in the discovery of Perry's body in an old well, at Barnes station, on the abandoned stage road between Waldo and Gasquet, on August 28, 1596, five months after he was seen at Waido in company with Melson. Melson was arrested and his previous bad character and the strong circumstantial evidence against him led to his conviction to-day. —_—— DEPART PROM WOODLAND.

Judge Budd of Stockton Renders @ Deci- sion in a Test Case. BTOCKTON, CAr., May 12.—Judge Budd of the Superior Court this forenoon ren- dered & decision important to the Con- stables and Justices of the State. It was in the suit brought by Consiables Carroll and Beach of Stockton Township for a salary of $100a month each. Unaer the torms of the new fee bill County Auditor Keagle, in order to be on the safe side, re- fused to pay the claims until a judicial de- termination was had. The Auditor was thereupon mandamused and the court ordered the payment of the money under the provision of the new fee bi The contention was whetherin changing the compensation from a fee to a salary basis the compensation was increased, contrary to the constitution. The court held, however, that inasmuch as fees were salary a fixed quantily, there was no criterion by which they could be meas- ured. Thedecision is not well received by the county Constables and Justices, for they will now receive only a compara- tively small salary, instead of the big fees which they heretofore drew down. —_— DURRANT'S LAST APPEAL, Petition for a Pardon Filed in the Gor- ernor’s Uffice.

WOUNDS HIS FOE, THEN FALLS DEAD Tragic Ending of an Affray on a Solano Ranch. With a Shovel Michael Ford Inflicts Fatal Injuries Upon an Enemy. Is Himself Stricken by Heart Dis- ease While Golng to Sur= render to Officers. VALLEJO, Cin, May 12.—In a fight this afternoon on the Gore ranch, three miles east of Vallejo, Michael Ford struck William King over the head with ashovel, fracturing his skull. Ford started for town to deliver bimself to the authorities and dropped dead near the railroad sta- tion, presumably from heart disease. King says that Ford tried to dropa sack of wheat on his dog, and when he remon- strated Ford sharply replied that he would kill both him and his dog, and proceeded to carry the threat into execution. Another version is that the men were in town together during the morning and drove home to unload some groceries. Ford, 1t is said, placed a box containing some of the groceries on King’s shoulde: The latter was too weak to hold the weight and dropped the box to the ground. He | became angry and began to abuse Ford. The latter believed that King was about to dohim some bodily injury, and to pro- | tect himself he grasped & shovel which | |§ was near by, intending to hit King with the flat portion of it. The shovel turned as he swung it through the and one of the sharp edges struck King right on the center of the head, inflictinga very severe wound. While King lay moaning on the | ground Ford picked him up and pillowe: his head on a sack. Ford was known as a quist and inoffen- sive man, while King is said to have an unenviable record, being always looking for trouble. It is said that he accidentally | killed a man on the Morgan ranch a num- | ber of years ago. | An inquest will be held to-morrow | morning to ascertain the cause of Fora’s | death. Dr. J.J. Hogan, who examined King's wound, says that he cannot live. SUIT FOR DELAMAR LAND. Litigation Involving the Possession of the Townsite Begins at Car- son.

FOREST GROVE, Or., May 12—Anton | Piapner, a banker here, has received a let- ter from Mrs. V. Yerba, a mission worker in Sacramento, Cal, saying that one of her converts had given her $50 to be sent to Mr. Pfanner. This is part of the money stolen from the banker some years ago. | A scrawl, presumably from the converted thief, was read by Mr. Pfanner.
