From the latter place to | around the wreck, an engine sent from | | here and at 3 o’clock this afternoon the ACRAMENTO, March | Engineer M. A. Nurse of Board of Public Works, and a| number of members of the Auditing Board to-day visited | the levee, or easement, built in the Sacramento River by the State last { summer. They were joined on the | ground by Public Works Commissioner E. E. Leake, and together the party | went over the ground. The water was found to be running over the easement, carrying the storm water into the great Yolo basin, thus protecting all down river levees from any danger of breaking. The easement was found to be a perfect success, and few land- owners in the Lower Sacramento Val- ley realize what a splendid thing it is for them. Before this work was constructed at every high water there were re- peated breaks in the levees at most un- fortunate places. As a result of these | breaks thousands of acres of valuable |land was flooded and crops ruined. | Before the breaks occurred the river inflen ran bank full, and the islands in | the lower part of Sacramento County, containing the fruit and vegetable land |in the State, were flooded. To-day's test proved that this can never occur in the future. The easement is built of rock and | concrete, is 2000 feet long and 15 feet across the top. Being eight feet lower than the levees, which abut on either end, water will begin flowing over the easement before the river gets within feet of the gdanger point. Of course the Board of Public Works anxious to see this | of engineering constru |and its wish was gratified When the members reached the ease- ment they found an immense stream of water, 2000 feet long and a foot and a half deep, flowing gently over the { crown of the concrete without waste to | the fields beyond into the great Yolo basin. By nto thus easing the Lower Sacra- there is no danger of future and no danger that breaks will in the 1 below the point the levee is situated.

Reports were received to-day of the overflowing of the hop lands bordering the American River, about five miles | | Sr., a portion of the E: s property, Peter Hoe Stephen Quail’s ranches, all lo- cated in the neighborhood of Patter- sons Station, are more or less under water. The bottom lands on the old Rooney ranch, which, by the way, con- Fruit Compan and the bottom lands on the ranches of Willlam White, Antone Menke and Daniel McCarty are inundated. Said R. D. Stephens, the well-known fruit shipper, whose land is near the submerged fields, to The Call corre- spondent this evening: ‘It is a mistake to say that this over- flowing of the bottom lands is going to work an injury to the orchardists and hop growers. On the contrary, it will work a distinct benefit. The water holds a fine 'sediment, which is deposited on the bottom lands and enriches it to a remarkable degree. In fact, some of the farmers have been hoping for tweh- ty-five years that their lands would be overflowed in this manner. Of course, if the water remained on the land a great length of time the effect would be bad, but you ¥vill find that the water will soon disappear and that the deposit of sediment it has left will be of great value to the lands.” 1t is of interest as showing the tre- mendous force of the current of the Sacramento to know that the water which has covered the bottom lands along the American River is backwater from the mouth of the American at its junction with the Sacramento. The Sacramento is flowing so fast past the mouth of the American that the latter cannot empty its -volume into it, and so the water actually runs back six or seven miles to the bottom lands desig- nated. On the Cosumnes, also, the water has attained a great height and the banks have broken in several place: flowing lands in the southwestern part of the county. The Sacramento River is five or six feét below the levees and there is absolutely no alarm felt any- where along the river. - In fact, the high water is quite generally regarded as of vast benefit to the grainfields and orchards.

Copyrighted, 1899, by the Assoclated Press, = | BERLIN, March 25.—The German newspapers, in discussing the commer- | cial relations between Germany and the United States, complain more or less bitterly. of the alleged fact that | while here everything is being done to bring about an improvement, Germany being willing to sacrifice something to that end, no reciprocity has been shown by the United States, where, it is as- rted, even the calm and moderate part of the press does not recommend any steps in that direction. A score | of articles written in this tenor have | appeared in many of the papers. It is believed that they were inspired by | the Government for a purpose. The | most plain-spoken article was pub- lished in the Cologne Volkszeitung, which said that the Americans were greatly mistaken if they imagined that all the yielding in the efforts to arrange a treaty would be done by Germany. Andrew D. White, the United States Embassador, referring to the Samoan | | situation, made the following state- | ment to the correspondent of the As- | sociated Pre: | “The negotiations between Germany and the United States in regard to Sa- moa which have been partly carried on | here have ceased for the present, and | are now exclusively carried on at Washington. Among the reasons for this change is the one that as Wash- | ington is nearer in point of time to the | scene of action there will be less delay in obtaining information. This is the | present status. “The negotiations In regard to the‘ commercial treaty are also confined to | ‘Washington, where the bureaus of| John Kasson, special reciprocity com- | missioner, and Baron von Holleben, the. German Embassador, are handling them. I am not aware of any interest- ing recent developments in the matter. Replying to a question as to whether | the presence and doings in Germany of | Robert P. Porter have had any appre- | clable effect, good or bad, on the re- | lations between Germany and the | United States, Mr. White said: ‘“No; so | far as I can judge that has not been the case.” The Reichstag has adjourned until| April 11. Since it convened it has ac- complished a great deal of work, hav- ing held sixty-one plenary and eleven special sessions. The various commit- tees (here called commissions) have also dispatched much business. Of the bigger bills only the budget was finally passed. The banking, judiciary, lex- seinge, or the law against unnatural crimes, and several other bills, are still progressing. The postal, telephone, | telegraph and meat Inspection bills have not even had their first reading, but these measures will come up after the holidays in the order named. | Before adjourning the Reichstag had a most exciting discussion on the sub- Ject of gambling. Herr Bebel, the So- cialist leader, reiterated his charge | that there was a large percentage of | the army officers in the notorious | Harmlosen Club, adding that a similar state of things prevailed at the Turf Club, where heavy play is the main fea- ture. Herr Bebel further asserted that many officers played there regu- larly in spite of the army regulations forbidding gnmbnng. He added that among those who frequented the club were three Princes of a reigning Gey- man house. The Sociallst leader then asked why the Minister of War, General von Goss- | notified the o | investi; ler, usually quick in preventing papers the | | from speaking disrespectfully of army, had not proceeded against the Tageblatt, which had given details in | | connection with these clubs severely re- | flecting on army officers. To this query the Minister made an evasive reply. ! Herr Bebel, continuing, said that the | extent to which gambling flourished | the Turf Club was proved by the fact | that the club last year received 350,000 | marks from ,card money. . | An investigation made by the corre- | spondent here of the Associated Press‘ has more than corroborated the above | statements. It seems that 50 per cent | of the membership of the club consisted | of officers belonging to the active Jnd\ reserve forces of the army and that the frequenters of the club until recent- ly included Emperor William’s brother- in-law, Duke Ernest Gunther of Schles- | wig-Holstein, three Baden Princes, a ‘Wurtemburg Prince, a Princé of Thurn and Taxis and a number of the mem- bers of the Prussian Herrenhaus, Diet and Reichstag. Any number of scan- | dals have occurred in the club recently. In the Prussian Herrenhaus there w a hot debate introduced by two Yonkers for the purpose of forbidding persons of | both sexes under 18 years of age visit- ing dram shops or leaving their native place without permission and reintro- ducing punishment by whipping. This feature of the bill has been re- ferred to a committee and will probably | pass. It is claimed that most of those | | | who were consulted as to the advisa- bility of reintroducing whipping had agreed that it was necessary, and added that it seemed in most cases to be more humane and more wholesome than imprisonment YOUNG PICO ARRAIGNED FOR HORSE STEALING Nephew of the Former Governor of California on Trial at Los Angeles. | LOS ANGELES, March 2.—The trial of | Alvino Pico, charged with horsestealing, proceeded this morning before Judge Smith and a jury. The defense of insanity is being attempted by the prisoner. Pico is a nephew of ex-Governor Pio | Pico, one of the notable characters in| California history. He is charged with the | theft of a horse and bug, it is alleged Pico took the rig to a 1 stable and | | left it, first selling a harness and robe. | The Countess Pico Gottliebson, the wife | of a Danish nobleman, now living in San | Francisco, a sister of ‘the prisoner, testi- | fied that his mind had always been weak | and that in his youth he had frequently given signs of insanity. Cross-examina- | tion developed that thé Countess has not been intimately acquainted with her brother since 1879, for the reason that since that year he spent most of his time in Utah, Nevada and California State prisons. Count Gottliebson, a portly per- | son with a Russian beard, was present at | the trial. OPENED THE WRONG GRAVE. WOODLAND, March 25.—Two Chinese have been arrested in Davisville for body snatching, and District Attorney Bush went to that place this afternoon to make a thoralll“grh investigation. The Chinese live in 8an Francisco and arrived in Davisvile on Friday to obtain the body of a fellow- countryman ‘who met death on W. W. Montgomery's farm about ten years ago and was burfed in the Davisville ceme- tery. In the evening they proceeded to the cemetery and dug several holes In an attempt_to locate the Chinaman’s re- mains. They finally found a body, which they removed and put into a box. Some one passing the cemetery noticed the Chinese digging into the graves and cers at Davisville. Upon ation it was learned that the Mongolians had disinterred the remains of an Indian who had been dead about fifteen years. The remains were identified by several old residents of Davisville. The Chinese were then placed under arrest. It is not believed that they intended to molest any other grave than that of their coumr)mar‘ but they had no authority to open any grave, and will have to ans- wer to the courts for the offense. — - Preparing to Marry Rigo. NEW YORK, March 25.—A speclal cable to the Journal from Cairo says: Princess de Chimay means to take up her permanent residence in Egypt. She is building a villa in the suburbs of Alexandria, where she will reside with Rigo after their approaching nuptials. | family HHUI][S’ MISSIUN NOT A SUCCESS Not Fi- | Germany Will nance His Railroad. BERLIN, March 25.—The result of | Cecil Rhodes’ mission to this country is generally spoken of by the press as equivalent to a failure. The financial papers laugh at the idea that the Gov- ernment will furnish guarantees of the financial success of that part of the projected Cape to Calro railroad which | is to pass through German East Africa. Respecting the reasons which pre- vented the Emperor from dissolving the | Reichstag, it now appears that the whole Bundesrath, Prussia alone ex- cepted, was against him. Not only the King of Saxony, but a number of other sovereigns personally advised his Ma- | jesty against a dissolution, and if the Emperor had insisted, in the Bundes- rath, in putting the motion for a dis- solution it would have been overwhelm- ingly defeated. The Bundesrath to-day accepted the Reichstag form of the military bill. There is a strongly growing senti- ment in favor of excluding foreign- born Princes from succession to Ger- man thrones. The death of the heredi- tary Prince of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha and the question of the succession to the throne of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha have started a discussion The Munich Neuste takes vigorous exception to the fact that the succession was decided by a council of English-speaking Princes presided over by Queen Viec- toria, and says: “It is Intolerable that such a deci- sion should be made by Englishmen. We do not blame the English branch | of the Coburgs for having turned en- tirely English, nor do we blame voung Connaught. He may be the nicest fel- low in the world; but it remains that | an Englishman is out of place on a German throne.” The paper then advocates passing a | law regulating the succession to Ger- man thrones in a way to forever ex- clude all family rights of succession held by foreign-born persons. This is by no means the most vio- lent expression of opinion. Even some of the newspapers close to the Govern- ment spoke in a similar sense, but with more caution. A member of the Bundesrath informs the correspondent of the Associated Press that the Bundesrath has often discussed the matter during the past month, and that while nobody thinks of excluding the present heir to the throne of Coburg, some new legislation on the subject will shortly be proposed in the Bundesrath jointly by the Ger- man governments and that later it will be sent to the Reichstag. The Alle Deutsche Blaetter, in a flaming article, deplores the fact that s0 many Germans fought on sea and land under the Yankee flag in the late war, and says America's young colon- ial empire “will be paid for with Ger- man blood, just as the French con- quered in the same way Tonquin, Mad- agascar and Dahomey.” It adds: “If the' Yankees, with their coarse brag- ging, threaten to lick us, it is only be- cause they know their own skins are safe i» any case. With thelr dollars they would find enough German asses anld r;negfldel to fight their own moth- erland.” for several nights.
