Spectal Dispatch to The Call. BAKERSFIELD, Jan. 25.—The Derby was finished to-day, and the winner turned out to be Alex C, by Glenbeigh- | Saddle Bags. the property of John Lu- of San Rafael. Second place fell to Cuba of Kenwood, by Glenbeigh Jr.- Stella owned by W. S. Tevis of Bakers- field, and third to the English setter, Lady Rodschaff, by Rodschaff-Cruis- seda, owned by Frank Maskey of San Francisco. Lady Rodschaff, being the best setter in the trial, won the Bennett cup. The all-age stake was next on the bill of fare. After luncheon Count Harold, handled by W. O. Couts of Kenwood, met Bueno, the only pointer in the trial, which. was handled by Al- lender. The dogs were cast off at 2 p. m., on good ground, but it was some time before Bueno pointed stanchly and the Count refused to back. Al- lender fired and both dogs remained steady to shot. Bueno pointed again, but the bird ran and flushed after run- ning a few yards splendidly, but showed poor Hose and poor judgment. The dogs were called up at 2:40. Nimrod E, handled by Allender, and Dona Alicia, handled by Walters, were cast off at 2:50, in a country profuse with sage. The birds were very un- steady and continued on the run, but Nimrod was not to be denied a place. He kept on the windward side of his game and by roading he again drew on point. Dona Alicia had also pointed in a crouching position, but the birds would not lay. Finally Dona pointed. ‘Walters flushed and missed. Nimrod was going like an old Trojan and road- ed a runner for several yards, finally pointing stanchly. Allender shot and crippled the bird. Dona again pointed and was well backed. They were or- | dered up at 4 o’clock. | The great event of the day came | next. It was the casting off of Cham- pion Dash Antonia, a double-time win- ner of the international cup, run at Mitchells Bay, Canada, and also a winner of the Manitoba all-aged stake and other important events on bench and field. He was handled by William Coutts of Kenwood, Sonoma County. | Hopp, a Portland dog, handled by Dyse, was his opponent. The dogs | were cast off on an open piece of | { ground with enough cover so that the | | spectators could see every point made, The Portland dog was first to locate birds, but after being shot over he grew excited and ranged wildly. Scat- tering birds were found. Suffice it to say that Dash electrified all observers, His work was perfect. He made point after point and roaded his birds time and again fully 400 vyards, pointing stanchly and holding steady to shot. The manner in which he covered ground, coming to a point like a snap when under full swing, was simply | grand. The great dog made not a sin- gle mistake, scoring at least forty points while down. The critics took | their hats off to himand acknowleAged that he was the greatest field trial dog they had ever seen. Dash was finally |lost after having roaded birds fully | half a mile. He was discovered at a | late hour by one of the party who was looking him up in a small gully stanch on point and waiting for orders. GOV. GRIGGS CONFIRMED AS ATTORNEY-GENERAL.

Day Death Upon Spectal Dispatch to The Call. | PORTLAND, Or, Jan. 25—Gus ‘Wachline, under sentence to be hanged February 4 at Hillsboro for the mur- der of John D. Ledrick, made a state- ment to-day implicating Robert Buck, a well known farmer. Wachline killed Ledrick three years ago, made his es- cape, was captured last November and tried six weeks ago, the verdict being murder in the first degree. The con- fession is in part as follows: One Friday in April, 1883, Mr. Buck, | with whom I was staying, took a rifle | and told me that he was going to look for two cows on the range near the Catholic church north of the farm of John D. Ledrick. This was early in the afternoon. He did not return until be- tween 9 and 10 o’'clock that night. When he returned he did not have the rifle, and [ Paked him what he had done with it, i and he told me he had left it near the Catholic_church, as he did not care to carry it back and would get it next day. The next morning he asked me to go with him, as he had found one of the cows and one calf. 1 accompanied him, he carrying a double-barreled shotgun, and when we reached the line fence between the m_of Robert Buck and the farm of John D. Ledrick, he, the said Robert Buck, informed me that he had killed John D. Ledrick. I did not believe him at the time, and laughed at him; but he told me it was true, and wished me to go to Ledrick's house with him. I did so, and on reach- ing the house found Ledrick lying on the floor, in what I supposed was the sitting- room. Buck then wanted me_ to carry Ledrick’s body to the barn. I refused. | He insisted, and I finally assisted in car- | rying the body to the barn; and then ne| | insisted that I should bury it. I refused, | and he insited tnat I should, saying that he would ch and see if any one came. He then went to the house, cleaned up the blood and then told me that he de- sired to bury the gun, he having previ- ously told me that he had shot John D. Ledrick through the window. and then having beaten him with a club, and at that time I saw the club in_the siting | room of the house of John D. Learick. He then started north from the house of John D. Ledrick, and he found the rifle and burled it under a log about 200 yards from the house of John D. Ledrick. We then returned to the house of Rob- ert Buck and he made me promise that T would not tell any one about the killing of Ledrick. This is all T had to do with the killing of John D. Ledrick.

VISALIA, Jan. 2.—One of the longest trials ever heard in the Superior Court ‘nf this county came to a close to-day when the jury in the Thomas M. Blake will contest was discharged because it could not agree upon a verdict. The contest began on the 2Ist of December. Over elghty witnesses were examined and the expenses of the case amounted | to a small fortune, if lawyer's fees are counted, for five of the best attorneys were employed. The contest aroused wide interest. Blake, the maker of the will, was an old ploneer of this vicinity and’the fam- fly is known up and down the valley and in San Francisco. The Blake estate was conservatively valued at $23.00 at the time of the testator's death iast Septem- | ber. 'Nine vears before that he had married a second wife, who was younger than his five grown daughters, and the daughters refused to have anything to do with the new Mrs. Blake. At Blake's death he left his wife and three small children much more of the estate by his will than the grown daughters thought was just, hence the attempt to break the will, the charge being that he was of unsound mind and that the will was pro- cured through undue influence on the part of the wife. The jury stood seven for the contest- ants_and five for the widow, after hav. ng been out nearly seventy-two hours, The contestants are talking of a second trial. | A Jockey Campbell Suspended.
