SACRAMENTO, Dec. 3.—There cannot be a rational doubt over the outcome of to-morrow’s vote on the Folsom boulevard vroject. The returns already in from the various canvassers show the tread of the tide and if the bonds are not voted forit will bs because the friends of the measure, veing too sanguine, remained away from the polls. This will be the ouly possible solution of the defeat if it comes. That two-thirds of the people of Sacramento County favor the issuance of these bonds there csn be no doubt. two-thirds will take the trouble to vote to-morrow or not remains to be seen. There is little probability, however, of such Leing the case, as the very thorough campaign just closing has rendered the question an absorbing one, and the bitter- ness of the few opposed has aroused the determination of the many who are fight- ing for good roads in Caliiornia. The last meeting in the country took | place at Florin last night, and in a most fitting manner did the people of Fiorin contiibute to its success. Many ladies were present, and if ther feelings on this question wil! in_&ny way be reflecied by their ‘‘iiege lords’” to-morrow, there wiil be faw votes castin Florin on the wrong side. T. E. Davies was selected as the chair- man of the meeting, and after acknowl- edging the compliment paid him, intro- duced State Senator Gillis Doty,wh urged upon his neighbors in fervent tones to preserve the good name of the coanty. Senator Doty naturally 1eels that he should be su ined in the immediate neighborhood of his home, and hisialk to his peopie last night was an earnest one and it came from the heart of a sincere man.

Efforts were made last night by Man- ager Gibb and Manager Groom of the Na- tional Athletic Club to arrange a twenty- round boxing contest between Sailor Stiarkey and big Jim Jeffries of Los An- geles. A crowd of sports and sporting writers sathered about Groom’s place of business early in the evening, as the managers had given out that rkey and Jeffries, through their managers, would sign for the go, the event tc be puiled off under the auspices of the club on the evening of the 30:h inst. Sailor Sharkey, stunningly attired, and wearing a diamond in his shirt-front as large as the lump on Billy Clarke’s thumb, early put in an appear- ance. Fight Promoter Gibb stated that Billy Delaney wouid be present to sign the | articles for Jeffries. Time went on and the gathering of sports increased, but still no Delaney showed up. Gibb stated that he was authorized to sign the articles for Jeff -jes. *Delaney told me,” said the fight pro- | moter, “that anything 1 might do in this matter would be perfectly satisfactory to Jeffries and himsell.” Atter a tiresome wait Eddie Graney, Sharkey’s new manager, apnearad and a in Groom’s office.

O Thursday evening at Young Mitch- ell’s sporting emporium Billy Delaney, | repre-enting Jeffries, and Youn - Mitchell di-cussed a meeting betueen Jeffries and Jackson.

Gibb stated last evining that he and Groom would give 70 per cent of the gross | receipts for about between Jeffries and Starkey. He thoueht that e contest would bea big drawing card, but it s doubtfal 1f it would.

W. B. James, a Colored Barber, Shot and Seriously Wounded Manuel Benedict. The Wounded Man Slashed James With a Razor Last Monday and Since Threatened His Life. W. B. James, a colored barber, last night shot and. it is believed, fatally wounded Manuel Benedict, or, as he is better known, Manuel Gonzales, another colored barber. Tue shooting took place in the barb:r-shop kept by James at 2 Satter sircet, near tue terminus of the Sutter-street railroad, and occurred at about 6:15 o’clock 1n the evening. The bullet from James’ 44-caliber Smith & Wesson struck Benedict in the left breast jist beiow the shoulder. Atter he was shot Benedict walked out of the shop and, calling out “I am shot through the heart,” fell to the sidewalk. He was assisted 1o & neighboring store by John Andrews, who was in ihe restaurant which adjoins the place where the shoot- ing took place at the time. A telepuone message was sent for an ambulance and a | short time afterward Benedict was taken to the Receiving Hospital. His wound was dressed by Dr. Tormey, who did not attempt to prokte for the bullet, as Bene- dict was in great vain and the physician believed tuat the wound would prove fatal, Immediately after the shooting Mr. James went to the City Prison and sur- rendered himself. When the snooting took place there wer» in the shop, besides tne two, J. R. C. Jones and two white men, who were wait- 1ng to get vuaved, but \l)air names coula not be iearned. Thay did not wait for the retreat. Jones has been working in the shop about two weeks. He told the following story of the shooti *‘Gonzales cume here about 5 o’clock in the afternoon and asked James for some money,” said Jones. *James told him that he had no money, but would see nim downiown. James ordered him out of tlie shop, an¢ Manuel went cutside. He bezan 10 tak 10 me abouta place where he was going 10 work and tcid me that he wanled to get $125 to get some ihings or tools, “*A little while after I came in and Manvel came in afiter me and asked me foradrink of water James was stand- ing beuind the open door which leads into the bearovm, and as Manuel came over toward tbe wasnstand where I was gong toget him a drink James ordered bim not to come over there and told him to goout. He told him twice, and then as Gounzales didn’t go Le sbot him. He stuck the pistol through the crack of the door and shot. Then Gonzales went out. The two men who were in the shop at the time got out tn a hurry.”’ Jones stated furtier that he met Gon- zales on the corner of California and and Gonzales threatened terday and do James up. “You teil James tuat I am coming out after that 70 cents, and teil nim if Le don’t pay me woe be unto his bacon,” is what Jones siates Gonzales said. When seen at the polic? siation James 10 go out yes- The men had trouble on last Monday. Gonzales weut to the barber-shop and slashed James on the side of tne nose with a rszor. For tms Gonzales was arresied’ but was turned loase on the preiiminary examiaation. ‘Woen Gonzales was searched at the Re- ceiving Hospital no weapons were ound on bim. A leather kn.fe-scabbard was discovered, but the knifs could not be fouad. Gonzales made a statement last night, when ne was told that his wound would probably prove faral, to the effect that he went to Jumes' shob to get some money the barber owed him. ‘‘He told me to getout, and I said, *If you pay me I wiil wot bother you any moie., I was stand- ing in front of the door.

Foreigners Fesiding in Belgium Need Kot Serve in the Civil Guard of That Country. BRUSSELS, Dec. 3.—The Government has decided that Americans residing in Belgium will hereaiter be exempt from service in the Civil Guard.

Thereupon ths Americans resia- ing in Brussels held a meeting and de- cided to oppose the action of the Belgian Government, and resolutions were adopted aud forwarded to the United States Min- ister at Brussels, Mr. Storer, asking for the intervention of the United States Government in the matter.

All the parties will be taken ana charzed with the count of let- ting bouses for illegitmate purposes as soon as the warrants can be served, The warrants were all given out by | Ju Campvoell at Chief Lees’ sugges- tion, and Judge Campuoell siates tia. the cases wul be thoroughly investigatea, and | if se come ished a zonviction wiil follo Tue charges will be based On section 316 of tue Penal Code. 1f counvictions are made of parties who lease the houses on St. Marys sireet an attemp: will undoubt- eily be mude 10 do lixewise with those who have an interest in properly on Quincy street. The houses are emphatically declared by Chief Lees to be a nuisance, anu he will strain a point to accomplish the ob- ject, but reaiizes that it 100k over two years to close Morton street, and that dif- up wnicn shouid be ]v\m»' | ficulties may be encountered not hereto™ fore thought of. : Attorney A. I. Morganstern has stated that a rumor is rife that Captain Lees s anxious to close up St. Marys street and, other places in that vicinity, that the un- fortunates who 1eside there may go to quarters in Chinatown, where property is owned by F. J. Sullivan and called Sulli~ van alley. Further, that this isdone to curry favor with Mayor Phelan, as he is related by marriage to Sullivan, and that the larze revenue from women- in such places has not been overlooked, and it'is rumored that many starting acts will be uncurtained ere all is finished. Morganstern is stated to te a friend of Judge Campbell, and such a report as stated may have little foundation, but the finale will be watched with interest. There is certainly bad blood between Judge Campbeil ana Chief Lees regarding boih the nickel-in-the-siot machines ana Campbell’s decision on the St. Marys.’ <tieet question. The wound, which was partialiy hesled, was opened again when Camypbell dismissed the case wsterd..y against one Allias for conducting a lot- tery in the shape of a nickel-in-the-sloc machine. The man was arrested at the- order of Chief Lees, and he was confident of con- viction, but his confidence was rudely shattered by the decision. The air is full of expressions such as “put_up job,” “bewhiskered vagavond,” “geyhole detective,” etc. Campoeil states a reuson lurdx:m)unll | by savingz that a criminal intent was not snown, as is necessary under section 20 of the Penal Code. The Judge states that all cases where licen-es huve been paid and a criminal in- tent not shown that are placed befors pim will likewise be dismissed. Where will it all end? is the question, but an answer comes from - some, “‘watch Lees'’ ana from others ‘‘watch Camp-~ bell.” e, An Address to Young Men, Rev. W. S.
