The California State Fish Commission has laid out considerable work for itself | and the deputies for the next few months. | This is in taking trout spawn at several | of the big lakes and streams. Deputies | W. Hunt and assistants left last even- | ing to open the hatcheries at Lake Tahoe | | and Lake Tallac. These hatcheries will | be run to their full capacity during the | trout season, and the commission will | keep several active deputies on patrol along the lakes and the adjacent streams until the season opens. Trout are pro- | tected under the State law until April 1, | but the fish in these lakes spawn much | later than in the lower streams and | waters where the temperature is warmer. In order to give the desired protection to the trout the Boards of Supervisors 6f El Dorado and Placer counties have | d special ordinances under which ut cannot be taken until June 1. The fish will thus be doubly protected, and | there is no fear that the State's officers will not have plenty of help and support in enforcing the two sets of laws. The commission has also set traps in | Mears and Hazel creeks, near Sims, on the Sacramento River, in order to take rainbow trout. The spawn will be “‘eyed” Sims and then transferred to the Sis chery. T} rd will open the - on Shovel Creek. also known as s .

Moffett then called for me and I quieted her and remained with her all night. This morning my mother went out to the back porch to get some Kin- dling. Moffett followed her and I heard two shots. As I rushed out Moffett tried to shoot me and chased me through the house. The revolver would not fire and that_saved my life. I screamed after reaching the street and went back with some people. As we did so I heard an- other shot and when we reached the | porch my mother was breathing her last and Moffett lay beside her. W. E.

Penniless and hungry and anxious to make atonement for his crime William Brearwood, who is wanted in Balti- more for embezzling §2800, surrendered himself to the police last night. About a week ago Brearwood arrived in this | city and proceeded to have a “good time,” as he expressed it. He visited several notorious resorts in that in a short time he found himself penniless. Knowing that the police were after him he concluded to sur- render himself in the hope of getting off with a light sentence. “I guess I'm up against it,” he re- marked in the office of the Chief of Po- lice last night, “all I want is to be taken back to Baltimore. “I know I did wrong and I am now wiiling to suffer the consequences of | my crime.” To Chief Lees Brearwood said he was | the confidential agent of a firm in| Baltimore, and in an evil moment he | pocketed the day’s receipts, amounting | to $2800. He lost a small portion of the | money playing poker, and rather than | face his employers he determined to skip out. After wandering about the country for some time he decided to come to San Francisco in the hope that | his identity would not be known. After arriving here he had consider- able money, and meeting a friend, they proceeded to do the tenderloin. Brear- wood fell in love with one of the den zens of that delectable quarter, and in a short time she succeeded in getting all his money.

Resignation Pending a War With Spain. Colonel Seldon 8. Wright, commanding the Sixth Regiment, N. G. C., has with- drawn his resignation from the office of djutant-general at Sacramento. The gnation of Colonel Wright was ten- dered last January on his determination to go to Kiondike with a party from Fresno. Since that period, however, the sinking of the Maine in Havana changed the complexion of things from a military standpoint, and, as Colonel Wright puts it, the duty of every soldier should be to his country first and the Klondike second. Anticipating that the National Guard might be called into active service, he at once telegraphéd the adjutant-general to withhold forwarding his resignation to the commander-in-chief, Governor Budd. This request was complied with and the withdrawal of his resignation followed. He is now in active command of his regi- ment, with headquarters at Fresno, and ready and willing to take the field against that may seck to have a “brush” with Uncle Sam. His intention to resign his command and proceed to Klondike is still in his mind and will be carried out as soon as the threatened war is settled one way or the other. e ————— McINTOSH MUST PAY. Forty-five Thousand Dollars His As- sessment on Stock of an In- solvent National Bank. United States Circuit Judge Morrow yesterday gave judgment for $45,000 in favor of the plaintiff in the case of Charles H. Baker vs. Angus McIntosh. Baker is receiver for the insolvent Mer- chants’ National Bank of Seattle. An assessment of $/5 per share was levied on the stock of the bank by the Comptroller ot the Currency. McIntosh held 600 shares of the stock, and Judge Morrow’s aeci- sion is that he must pay the assessment, which amounts to $45000, together with interest at 7 per cent from May 16, 1596, and costs.

THREATENED T0 CHOKE 4 CHILD, Mrs. Eva Beaglehole of Ren;) Arrested on a Serious Charge. | | | She Is Accused of Inhuman Treat- ment to Her Little Foster Daughter. Mrs. Eva Beaglehole, a prepossessing woman of about 30 vears of age, was ar- rested last night by Officer H. McMurray | on a warrant charging her with cruelty | to her adopted daughter. According to the statements of Officer McMurray and others the child, a beau- tiful and exceedingly intelligent little thing of seven years, has suffered great cruelty during the past year. Mrs. Bea- glehole lives in Reno, Nev.. where she conducts a millinery establishment. She makes frequent visits to this city,to pur- chase goods, and when here a year ago she visited Beulah Home, maintained by the Salvation Army across the bay, with the object of adopting a girl. Among others there were two children named Beaver, their father being a resident of this city. She took a_strong fancy to little Flossy Beaver, and after several in- terviews with the chud's father legally adopted her with the approval of Mrs Montgomery and the other ladies at th Several weeks ago a letter - ister in Reno was received 5;’“3.9' gaifl. fornia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, charging Mrs. Bea- flehole with abusing her helpless charge n a shameful manner and asking that steps be taken to remove the little one from her care. Similar letters were also received by Mrs. Montgomery and Mr. Beaver, and the latter wrote to Mrs. Beaglehole asking her to call on him the first time she came to the city. The woman and child came down from | wife is dead | said Kilgallon as tears of aelight trica.ed i chal | Casey relieved Jack tne expert of any | | Dunne he would be in | 0'clock St | ame. | handball. | | mas | phy, a hod-carrier, on | grand larceny. | at the City Prison. Reno several days ago and took rooms at the Wilson House, on Post street, near Kear but she pald no attention to Beaver's request for an interview. Last Wednesday night Mrs. Belle Childs, who is also a guest at that Fouse, heard the child cryimg as though in great pain and pleading to be spared further punishment, while above her cries arose the woman's voice threatening to choke the child to death. Mrs. Childs was so indignant that yesterday she swore to the complaint on_which Mrs, Beaglehole was _arrested. The warrant was placed in the hands of Officer Me- Murray, who is detailed for duty with the California Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, put he was unable to serve it until about 6 o’clock last night, Mrs. Beaglehole begged to be spared the shame of being taken to jail, and said a friend would call in a short time and would deposit the necessary bail. The officer, who during the day had notified Beaver and Mrs. Montgomery of the is- suance of the warrant. consented to wait, and while he was there the father and one of the ladies from the home came in. Mre. Beaglehole left the room for a short time and during her absence the of- ficer questioned little Flossie. She showed a rent in the palm of her right hand, Which, she said, was where the woman had bitten her. On her left arm were two marks which she said were also caused b the woman's teeth. while about her nec% were a number of scratches which she at- tributed to her foster mother’s attempts choke her. A doctor was called in and said that all the marks might have been made in the manner indicated. Finally Mrs. Beaglehole’s friend ar- rived and gave the officer $40 for her ap- pearance in Police Court No. 8 this morn- ing, and she was allowed to remain in her apartments. Flossie was taken over to the Beulah Home, but will be brought bacl¢ for the trial Mr. Beaver is an_ intelligent business man and is shocked bevond measure at the treatment his child has received. His nd he believed when Mrs. Beaglehole took Flossie the little one would receive cvery care, as the woman dceupies a prominent position in Reno. is thought that Mrs. Beaglehole will consent to have her appointment as guardian annulled, and Flossie will again find shelter and kind treatment from the ladies who first provided for her. M0W THE LOCAL BOYS WERE FOOLED Riordan and Kilgallon De-| feated by Champion Casey and Partner. An Exciting Handball tween Famous Players of East Contest Be- and West. | One of the most interesting games of handball played this city in years was by an enthusiastic witnessea yesterday | gathering of plcasure-hunters in Phil Ryan's court on Howard street. According to rumors, it appears that when Champion Phil Casey of New York | and his partner, James Dunne, had played their inaugural game in this city last Sunday John Riordan, the local champion, took ery close obsen‘auons' of the stern players as they play ball. | Riordan huntc. up Kilgallon, the regu- | lar smasher and a.-round destroyer of lay evening, an. quietly | at it would be a great | n their caps If they could “wipe | " of the Eastern experts at the | h: int feather 1 the e; old Irish game. don’t you know that we without any grec. ef-| d Dunne cannot put up| fort if Casey @ any better ball than we saw to-uay,” said the little 1at man from Denver with a chuckle. “Put it there, .uike, old boy,” retorted “Champion Jack,” he proffered s “big .nch of f to his prospective partner, who shook it heartily. *'Yes, we can o’ .em brown, Mike, and L'l teil | you how the trick can be accomplished. | Listen! “You take a. of the outside nlay, un- derstand, and keeo Casey on the jump by loug plays.

Casey's easy | style of returning hard balls from the | Lack wall was greatly admired, and “the Kiling” was always accurate. Riordan’s overhand plays were very poor owing to Jack's weak style of hit- ung. tus fancy strokes were undoubt- edly pretty to look at, but the bal gen- erally struck the floor before it reached the front wall. One of the interesting features of the game was the easy manner in which Cascy returned balls that came from the | angle of the back walls and the distress in which Kilgallon appeared to be when the champion challenged him to a dodge at long service. But now the local play- ers have learned that older men are their s and that practice makes perfect. The resuit of the match is as follows: The first three games went to Casey and Dunne, and through courtesy they permitted their opponents to have the last on. The scores were follows: 21—15, 21—16, 21—6 and 21—11. To-morrow Dunne and T. F. Bonnet will try conclusions with Casey and J. C. Nealon. As a kind of Warmer up there was a contest of three games between W. Mc- Guire and R. Murphy and E. Toy and J. White. The former team won by the fol- lowing score: 21—9, 21—20 and 2119, T L IR ROBBED A MINER. John Murphy, a Hod-Carrier, Ar- rested for Grand Larceny. Michael Curley, a miner, swore to a complaint in Judge Joachimsen's court vesterday for the arrest of John Mur- the charge of Murphy was arested by Detectives Ryan and O'Dea and booked Curley lives in a lodging-house at 1151 Market street, and Wednesday drew $700 out of the Hibernia Bank.

He fell asleep in the saloon, and Murphy, who had been drinking with him., went through his pockets, taking about 3650 and his keys. ‘When Curley aweke he found his money gone. He accused Murphy of ta.ng it, and Murphy handed him $40 and his keys. Yesterday afternoon, when Murphy was arrested, he agreed to show the detec- tives where he had hidden the money.

Recent Allowance of Five Million Dollars to the Engineer Corps. Captain Charles E. Clark Takes Command of the Battle- Ship Oregon. COAL FOR A LONG CRUISE. The Ship May Sail To-Morrow to Join the Squadron at Key West. The allowance of $5,000,000 to the En- gineer Corps to protect the principal harbors of the United States leads to the belief that some of the money at the disposal of Chief Engineer Wilson may be allotted to San Francisco. If the money does not come directly from the $50,000,000 allowed to the President for use in national defense it is likely to come from the regular appropriation, and may be available early in July next. It is the judgment of well-posted ar- tillery officers that works should be constructed at Gravelly Beach, on the Marin shore of the bay, near Lime | Point. A position for a water battery has been designated at that point. In fact, the scheme for defense for San Francisco harbor, adopted by the Board of Fortifications, embraces a battery of ten or twelve inch disappearing guns at Gravelly Beach. The guns of this pro- posed battery would not command much of an ocean range, s an arm of the mountain or bluff touching the Golden Gate shuts off a view of the sea further out than a line extending from Lime Point to the Cliff House. A battery there planted would be ob- scured from the view of an incoming fleet. An enemy would not discover the guns until the range of fire was short. Six 12-inch disappearing guns at Gravelly Beach would constitute a tremendously effective battery, and should, at the short range of one thou- sand or fifteen hundred yards, be able to destroy any ironclad that floats. While it is the judgment of military men that the works now constructed are strong enough to resist succes fully the advance of any fleet that Spain could bring to the Pacific, it is believed that steps should be taken to strengthen the interior line of re- sistance, so that if one ship should manage to pass the outer forts and get inside the vessel could not live after getting in the harbor. It is suzgested therefore that Alcatraz, the great nat- ural stronghold, should have teries of high-power range and prec It is probable that the enginears un- der the direction of Colonel Sutce wiil soon begin the work of constructing new batteries. The accepted plan of fortifications includes a fort at Lake Merced, south of the Cliff House, at an elevation of one hundred feet. and also provides for the planting of guns to prevent an enemy from effecting a janding at Halfmoon Bay. These pro- posed works at Merced and Halfmoon Pay are not now deemed so essential as a battery on the water line near Lime Point. The detachmehts of one non-commis- sioned officer and five privates from each of the batteries stationed at An- gel Island, Fort Mason and Fort Baker, that have been on temporary duty atthe Presidio since the 26th of last month, for the purpose of mounting guns on the Presidio Reservation, have been ordered to return to their proper sta- tions next Saturday. All the guns re- ceived from the East are in proper osition. i Tirst Lieutenant John A. Lockwood, Troop C, Fourth Cavalry, whose troop is stationed at the Presidio, has been detailed by the President as Professor of Military Science and Tactics at the West Virginia University, Morgans- town, W. Va., relieving Captain Chris- tine C. Hewitt, Nineteenth Infantry. Lieutenant Lockwood has been on tem- porary duty at the university for sev- eral months past, but the present detail carries with it a permanent detail for a full term of service at the institution. Captains Harry C. Benson and George H. G. Gale with their troops, K and C, Fourth Cavalry, have been detailed to patrol the Yo§em1te, Sequoia and General Grant National parks the coming season. These two troops have patrolled the parks for several years past, and the officers and men are fully acquainted with the duties re- quired of them, which duties{are con- tained in a letter of instruction from the Secretary of the Interior. The troops will leave the Presidio for their respective camps between the 1st and 15th of next month. They will remain in the parks until November. Captain Charles E. Clark arrived from San Diego yesterday and took command of the battle-ship Oregon. This powerful warship is ready for sea. The coaling for a long cruise was fin- ished the night before last and the vessel has now 1600 tons of coal aboard. All the necessary stores and a full line of ammunition are aboard. It is ex- pected that the Oregon will leave this harbor for Valparaiso to-morrow, but it cannot be ascertained that pasitive orders for salling have been received from the Navy Department. All hands aboard the battle-ship from the highest in rank down are ready to respond promptly to the call of duty. The officers and the men at the guns do not boast, but they have the utmost confidence in the ability of the shir to fight, with an even chance of victory, anything that floats. It is believed that the Oregon, after coal- ing at Valparaiso or Callao, will pro- ceed to the Atlantic and join the squadron of United States ships at Key West, ¥ RAILWAY CIRCLES SHOCKED. News Received of the Deaths of Two Prominent and Popular Officials. John G. Schriever, traffic manager of the Atlantic system of the Southern Pa- cific Company, died at an early hour Wed- nesday morning at the Hotel Normandie, in New York City, where he had gone from his headquarters at New Orieans on a business trip of a few days' duration. The cause of his death was Bright's dis- ease, from which he had been suffering for quite a length of time. Mr. Schriever was a native of Jersey City, and was 54 years of a Tie firat entered the railroad business in 69 as receiving clerk of the Texas and Louisiana Raflroad and steamshl% Com- pany, a property of the Southern Pacific.

The Anti-Civil Service League Favors Him for Governor. A joint meeting of the Anti-Civil Service League, the Sons of Veterans and the Veterans of the War Association was held Tuesday at B'nir B'rith Hall for the purpose of arranging for an anti-civil service mass-meeting. The meeting was called to order by D. M. Cashin, who acted as temporary chairman. The chair- man stated that the object of the meeting was to educate the people and enlighten the present generation to the absurdity and 4mpracticability of the civil service law as now in force. Letters expressing sympathy with the cause and regrets at being unable to be present were received from the president and secretary of the Army and Navy League of Oakland, and resolutions were passed indorsing Dr. George C. Pardee as a candidate for Governor. Other resolu- tions adopted declared that the members of the league would vote for no man who was not opposed to civil service, and that any man who is opposed to it will recelve their support regardless of politics. ————— Emmanuel Sisterhood Election. The Emmanuel Sisterhood held their annual meeting vesterday and elected of- ficers for the coming year. The presi- dent’s report and the treasurer’s showed that the Sisterhood was in a most flour- ishing condition, there being a balance in the treasury of $270235, an amount just quadruple that of last year. The ques- tion of doing away with the relief section of the organization was discussed at some length, and. it was decided it was not only the wisest but the most benefi- cial thing for the society to do. The re- ports from the chairmen of the various sections show that the work is progress- ing well.
