THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, JULY 22, 1898. ALAMEDA COUNTY NEWS. RORS AT LAST FIND A VERDICT Chung Had Access to the Gunpowder Magazine. | NO FACTS AS TO QUANTITY | PRESIDENT LUKENS IS NOT INFORMED ON DETAILS. Some Jurors Suggested That There Was Altogether Too Much Freedom in Entering the Magazine. We, the jury, do find that deceased came to his death at the Western Fuse and Explosives Company’s works, Melrose, Alameda County, at at about 5:20 o’clock a. m., July 19, 1898, and that death was caused by injuries due to the explosion of pow- der in the magazine of said works, with murderous intent, by one Chi- nese named Quong Chung, an em- ploye aid powder company, who had free access to said powder mag- azine.

S Eaioe i o A PUBLIC FUNERAL. Public Offices and Stores Are to Close During the Obsequies. OAKLAND, July 21.—Two of the vio- tims—Constable Koch and D. C.

The committee has fssued the following: | It is requested that all stores be closed Friday afternoon during the passage of the funeral cortege as a 4 mark of respect to the memory of the brave deputies who sacrificed 4 their lives in the performance of their duty. The lesson of such sac- rifice in times as these cannot be too clearly demonstrated, and all the county should consider it a duty to honor the names of those five men who will never be forgot- ten.

IMPRISONED, THEN SUED. Mrs. Heath Tells How Her Husband Beat Her Face Nearly to a Jelly. OAKLAND, July 21.—Mrs. Lizzie L. Heath has sued her husband, John H. Heath, for divorce. The couple were mar- ried eight years ago In San Francisco and have five children, ranging in age from 1 to 7, and property of nominal value. Extreme cruelty is the basis of the ac- tion. Mrs. Heath avers that her husband was imprisoned four months ago in the County Jail for his brutal conduct toward her and was only released a few weeks ago. She claims that at the time of his| | arrest the angry husband got her in a | corner and nearly pounded her face into a jelly before help came to her rescue. Since his release, she avers, Mr. Heath has not improved in his treatment of her and she cannot stand such work any | longer. Hence the action. [ Lake Merritt Senitation.

Friend of the Congressional | Committee Recelves the Reso- lution From Sacra- mento. Oekland Office Ban Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, July 2L F. J. Fletter, chairman of the Alame- da County Republican Central Committee, | returned yesterday from his Eastern trip and soon after the assembling of the State committee he will call the county | organization together to arrange for the | election of delegates to the State conven- | tion. The effort to insure a unit delegation to the State convention by electing the delegates at a county convention has been discarded, as it is found to be con- trary to the rule of action laid down by the last Republican State conventlon. The committeemen were sounded as to their preferences in the matter of the election of State delegates and some were favorable to the convention plan. Rod Church from the Fourth Ward, in which is the residence of Dr. Pardee. said that he could not conscientiously advocate any such proposition, and he did not see how Mr. Davis or Dr. Pardee could coun- tenance such a plan, because both these gentlemen were delegates to the conven- tion which declared that delegates to State conventlons must be elected at pri- | maries or caucuses properly called by the | respective county committees. H. Friend, chairman of the Third | Congressional District committee, was also somewhat in doubt regarding this point, and he sent to District Attorney Frank B. Ryan of Sacramento for the| extract from the minutes of the conven- | tion relating to the matter. The reply contained the following resolution, which was proposed by the credentials commit- tee and adopted by the convention: | Resolved, That it s the sense of this conven- tion that all delegates to the county, district and State conventions of the Republican party should be elected at primaries or caucuses regu- larly called by the County Central Committees of the several countles for that purpose, and that only such delegates as are so selected at such primaries or caucuses shall be seated in any of the conventions of the party hereafter to be held. BLEW OUT THE GAS. FOUND NEARLY DEAD SALT LAKE MERCHANT HAS A NARROW ESCAPE. | Oakland Office San Francisco Call, %08 Broadway, July 2L M. Ferguson registered at the Galindo | Hotel last night, and early this morning | he was taken to the Receiving Hospital nearly dead from inhaling gas. About 7 o'clock one of the housemaids in the upper story of the hotel detectea the odor of gas and traced it to the room which Mr. Ferguson had engaged. She at once told the manager of the hotet who fortunately is a doctor by profession, Dr. Allen. He forced an opening into the room and discovered Ferguson uncon- sclous on the bed. A little later the stranger was taken to the Recelving 01 pital, and for several hours he hovered between life and death, but was ally declared out of danger. Yesterday afternoon Ferguson was around town drinking, and when he regis- tered at the hotel he was under the in- fluence of liquor. When the night clerk showed him his room he gave him par- ticular instructions about the gas, but | they were evidently not followed, and ths guest must have blown it out. There is nothing to suggest suicide, as he haa over $:0 in his pockets, and other papers in his possession indicate that he is a business man in good standing in Utan. Ferguson recovered his power of speecn this evening and said the incident was an accident, Employers Want a dettlement. OAKLAND, July 21.—L. B. Reynolds, a driver for the Red Star Laundry, is ac- cused hg his employer of being between $1000 and $2000 short in his accounts. He ran a wagon route on commission and kept his own accounts, which Superin- tendent Ram could not fathom. He has been there for nearly eighteen months, and last week was pressed for an account- ing. He promised to give it this week. It is claimed that he made an extra effort on Friday and Saturday to collect every- thing due him, stating to his customers that he was going to Manila this week with the Kansas Regiment. He is now | missing, and the firm believes it has been cheated. o PROFESSOR HILGARD RETURNS Took a Prominent Part in the Irriga- tion Convention at Denver. BERKELEY, July 21.—Professor E. W. Hilgard, head of the department of agri- culture in the University of California, returned yesterday from Denver, where he had been to attend a national c tion of agriculturists, called to d the question of irrigation. Professor Hil- gard reports that the convention will have no direct bearing upon the interests of California agriculturists. He says that the purpose of the meeting was to ad- vise Secretary Wilson of the Department | world, and whose only object is gain for the of Agriculture as to the present state and conditions of irrigation, in order that he might have in view the needs of different sections of the country when issuing bul- letins upon that subject. The bulletins, to be published in pamphlet form, will be Issued as occasion demands, Congress having recently appropriated $10,000 for that purpose. As one of the representatives from Call- fornia, Professor Hilgard was regarded as a special authority upon alkall soils, @nd the Denver Republican speaks of his | address before the convention as one of the most important given there. Berkeley News Notes. BERKELEY, July 21.—Mrs. A. L. Whit- g, widow of the late Professor W. T. Whiting of the University of California, | has arrived from her home in Canada to settle the affairs of hér husband’s estate. | She will return to Canada within a few days. A petition is being etrculated among the merchants of the town asking the Board of Trustees to annul the ordinance which requires every wagon to be li- censed. It is rumored that the first arrest made for the violation of the ordinance will be_fought out as a test case. The Knights of Honor held their in- stallation ceremonies last evening. The officers for the coming term are: Dicta- tor, H. B. Griffith; reporter, T. F. Hill; assistant dictator, E. F. Wrenn; vice dic- tator, A. M. Ewing; treasurer, H. B. Hos- ford; chaplain, F. M. Wilkins; trustees— A. Albutus, Robert Mills and R. A. Curry. —_——e————— Charitable Work. ALAMEDA, July 2L—The ladles of the Red Cross Society of this city are en- gaged at present in a line of work a littie out of their order. The explosion of the | fuse factory, which desolated so many | homes, has opened up a new channel for charitable work. As they are not sup- posed to use the funds of the society for other purposes than among soldiers, they have resolved themselves into an auxiliary society for this special end. They are ros ceiving generous donations in the way of Cclothing and furniture, and there have been several contributions of cash. A movement is on foot to raise funds on this side of the bay to rebuild the demolished homes. Dentist’s Office Robbed. ALAMEDA, July 21.—Dr. F. M. Bishop, a Park-street dentist, has notified ths police that at some time between Sunday and Wednesday evening some one entered his office and stole fourteen pairs of for- ceps and two automatic pluggers, some artificial teeth and a book on dentistry. The thief is supposed to be a mute whe goes from city to city doing odd jobs.

It Was Nipped in the Bud by the Fish and Game Commission- ers, Who Were Much Annoyed. Some members of the Couatry Club and the Fish Commissioners have had a slight difference of opinion regarding the legal status of the game law. It appears that after the 15th inst. members of the Coun- try Club, who are expert marksmen bowled over eight or ten noble specimens of the horned deer family in the Marin County preserve, some of which were shipped to friends, the remainder being consigned to a prominent game dealer in the California Market. Three beautiful specimens of the deer tamily, per order of the leading marks- men of the Country Club, were hung up | in the stall of a prominent game butcher, | and for two days they were viewed with much_ curiosity by PRy the Game and tolerated such an laws. eople who wondered | Fish Commissioners infringement of the es they agree to pay the commission | the ooting, such re- | | least conception of the game laws or their | meaning asked the game dealers what their charge per pound for venison was, but the answer to all queries was: “Nothing. We cannot sell an ounce of deer meat. But we simply have hung ‘the | | birds’ up for advertising purposes. The | venison is the property of the Country | Club, and for the opportunity that is| granted us as a matter of advertisement | we have agreed to distribute it pro rata among the friends of the members who | are booked for venison steaks.” | The Fish and Game Commissioners did | not look at the matter in the same light as the Country Club members and their | deputies ordered the game animals to be | taken from the meat hooks and *'stowed” away from view, stating that if every game dealer should act in the same manner the Fish and Game Commls—\ sioners may be held responsible for an infringement of the game law, although law does not state that male deer can or may be exposed in a market for | the purpose of advertising the place in | question. | The consensus of opinfon among sports- men is that the Country Club is showing bad precedent by permitting a gam dealer to hang up deer in view of all ob- servers. The law is intended for game protection, and with that object in view sportsmen should, in the opinion of the preservers of game, assist the Commis- | sioners to protect the noble species, which | is being rapidly decimated. ————————— COLUSA’S OLD CHAMPION. | G | W. S. Green Resumes Active Mm-; | | | agement of His Stand-by, the Sun. ‘Wil 8. Green, after having served his country in the office of United States Sur- | veyor General, has resumed the active management of his bright newspaper, the Colusa Sun, which has been his pride for | the past thirty-five years. During all this | time the policy of the owner and manager has been to have the paper clean and | free from sensationalism and its interests those of the county, in which it has a | large circulation. The journal has found | many readers outside of the boundaries of Colusa County, and not a few, relying on the truthfulness of its statements, have become residents of the county. To say that Mr. Green's efforts to increase the population of his home by publish- ing truthfully the resources of that sec- tion, have been fruitful, goes without saying. Many of the wealthiest and most de- sirable citizens of the fertile valley of Colusa gladly attest that their attention was called to the place where they have made their homes by the journal over which Mr. Green ‘presldes. ince his re- turn to private life Mr. Green has re- newed his efforts to add more to the population, and to this end he has issued @ special circular calling attention to the beauties of the scenery, richness of the soil and man{ opportunities for inves ments in profitable business and pursuits. While Mr. Green has always been a factor in county politics, as well as in matters of state, even his political op- ponents cannot say that he ever used the ower of his paper to promote anything ut that which he believed to be the right. —————— “The New America—Army and Navy,” by Henry Norman, special commissiéner of the London Chron- icle, in. next Sunday’s Call. —_———— Donegal Social Club Reunion.
