SAN QUENTIN PRISON, April 9.— The Board of State Prison Directors met here to-day and with a ful' board present accomplished considerable im- portant work. Chairman Robert Fitz- gerald called the meeting to order. In discussion In regard to the pros- pects for a demand for sacks it was shown that the demand this year had been unusually light, only 359,000 sacks having been ordered up to date, while at this time a year ago orders for 8,418,000 sacks had been received. The outlook for a heavy sale was doubtful, as the crop reports were anything but encouraging. The following report was rendered by L. D. Wadham, the expert of the Board of Prison Directors: On the 1st day of April I counted the cash belonging to the general fund, also the cash belonging to the prisoners, and I found both amounts correct. have checked the quarterly report with the cashbook, and I am pleased to report that every dollar collected is properly account- ed for by vouchers on file and cash in the vault. I have checked all entries from cashbook - and journal to the ledger. checked out trial balances of the prison books, also the prison ledgers, and find everything correct.

He was authorized to sell the bags at a price not less than 41 cents each, and the waste for what it would bring. The Warden estimated that the latter would bring .003% per pound. The Warden reported three deaths of convicts since the last meeting of the board at San Quentin—two by con- sumption and one by hanging. The lat- ter was Benjamin L. Hill, who pald the penalty for the murder of his wife. Mary E. Martin, the notorious de- fendant in the case that excited wide- spread interest throughout the State at the time of her trial r obtaining money under false pretenses, is dying in the women’s ward of the peniten- tiary from tumor of the stomach. For months the woman has b >n unable to leave her bed. The Prison Directors to-day recommended her pardon, to take effect on the 20th o" the present month. Mrs. Martin made the acquaintance of Miss Leonard of Oakland, who un- fortunately was not strong mentally, but possessed property of the' value of $14,000. Mrs. Martin made a proposi- tien to Miss Leonard that if she would transfer the property to her she would agree to care for Miss Leonard for the remainder of her life. Miss Leonard’s feelings were played upon and she finally consented and a contract was drawn up by Mrs. Martin to that ef- fect. After the property was trans- ferred Mrs. Martin went back on the agreement, and Miss Leonard was without means to provide for herself. Mrs. Martin was found guilty of ob- taining mopey under false pretenses and sentenced to ten years’ imprison- ment. Walter R. Limbert, serving five years for embozzlement committed in Alameda County, was paroled. Paroles were also granted to John McDonald, serving seven and a half years for grand larceny, committed in San Fran- cisco; Albert Coppelman, ‘serving eight years for burglary, committed in Santa Cruz, and F. I Greeley, serving three| years for grand larceny In Kings County. John W. Flood’s application for a recommendation for pardon has again been put over, and the fight m: his friends to secure his rale: probably been lost. flood was the casbier of the Donohoe-Kelly Bank in San Francisco, and was sentenced to serve seven years for embezzling funds of the bank. It is said that a strong battle has been wagel against Flocd, is taken as a sign that his cas2 will not again come up for a hearmz.

SACRAMENTO SAFE FROM INUNDATION Plans for the Construction of Weirs Along the River Approved. ‘Will Protect the Capital and Re- claim Lands in the Yolo Basin. Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, April 9.—At a meeting of the Auciting Board of the Commis- sioner of Public Works to-day the plans and specifications of Engineers Nurse and Randall for the construction of weirs on the Yolo side of the Sacramento River were approved and the advertisements for bids for construction ordered. The bunauing of the proposeu weirs will result in the absolute safety of the city of Sacramento; from inundation during tne high water stages of the river. In ad. dition, it will so_confine the overflow of waters into the Yolo basin as to enable the reclamation of thousands of acres of and the action of the dire:tors tu-day | the best land in the State. TUnder the present conditions the water flows into the Yolo basin.when the river has reached the nine-foot mark. Under the new | scheme, the water will reach the twenty- | foot mark at the foot of K street, Sacra- mento, before theoverflow at the weirs will | commence. The success of the venture is | due to the interest taken by the Sacra- wmento Chamber of Commerce, together with the encouragement and financial ald | contributed by i..e farmers of Yolo who | own lands adjacent to the territory to be | benefited by the construction of weirs, The plans provide for weirs 2000 feet wide, 15 feet in width, and to cost be- tween $20,000 and $25.000. e FORTY-TWO KNIFE WOUNDS. MARYSVILLE, April 9.—Willis Siisby, aged 60, an inmate of the Yuba County Hospital, made a-determined effort last night to commit suicide, stabbing himself with a pocket-knife forty-two times in the breast, abdomen and left elbow. The most dangerous wound is In the breast, the blade penetrating the pleural cavity and lungs.
