Seipg it the Bald- win Hotel by fire a number of junk deml- ers of this city have been adding to their wares by the acquisition of stolen ma- terial from the ruins. The arrest of cna | of tha emploves engaged In this busines: | was made the other day at the instiga- | | tion of E. J. Baldwin in order to discover the dishonest parties and bring them to | justtce. It is said that since the fire ehou- | | sands of dollars’ worth of material has been stolen, and that the ruins have been | dismantled of everything which would | realize a 10-cent piece in a junkshop. | The case of Willam Harrls, a watch- | | man employed about the ruins, who is| | charged with burglary and petty larceny, | came up in Judge Treadwell’s court yes-| | terday. The defendant was arrested on | the morning of July 25 by Officer Kiffane and charged with petty larceny. He was | detected in the act of stowing quantities of copper and brass in 5 which were to be hauled .away later to junkshops. Kiffane had received instruc- tions to watch the ruins, as the owmer | had discovered a bold theft of property. | About 6 o’clock en last Tuesday morr ne | the officer Evf*;u'd into the ruins. He saw | Harris in the act of loading several sacks | with junk. When the thief sighted the officer he ran away, and his capturs oc- cupied the best part of hour. Tha | charge of petty larceny was raised to a charge of burglary by Judge Treadwell on Thursday, and the hearing was set for vesterday. Three sacks of copper and brass appear as evidence against the de- fendant. E. J. Baldwin was an interesting spec- tator in the courtroom. He says that he is determined to prosecute the prisoner. Judge Treadwell made an order. Teducing Harris' bail to 800 and continued the case until Monday. Later in the day the Judge was made cognizant of the fact that Har: rie was not alone implicated in the thiev Ing. but that it has been the result of a | preconcerted action between several men Who have been receiving pay as em- ployes about the place. Ihe Judge asc Tained that thousands of dollars’ worth of zinc, brass, copper and fixtures have been taken from the place and that other are likely to foilow. B ering the serious of tha affair | Judge Treadwell reconsidered his deter- | mination to reduce Harris’ bail and will | change his order. AMONG THE CRICKETERS. Team From Southern California May Play Here Next Month. | The California Cricket Association held a meeting at the Occidental Hotel Friday night. The amendment to the rules gov- erning matches, of which due notice had been given by George Theobald. one of the delegates of the Pacific Club, and also to discuss the proposed visit of an eleven fraan Southern California were consid- | ered. Section 3 of artic V of the by | laws of the assoclation was originally in- | serted to prevent the bringing of good cricketers from other parts of the State ! to San Francisco for the purpose of strengthening city teams contending for | | a trophy, as was done in some instances. The section reads: *Members of any afMliated club may he members of all affiliated clubs, but can play only with | and for one club during the same year | exeept as hereinafter provided.” Under | this section H’ C. Casidy, lleutenant cap- tain, and T. W. G. Wallace, secretary, ot the Mountain Coppe: pany Cricket Club at Keswick, Shasta County, both of whom were formerly members of the Pa- cific Club, would not have been permitted to play for their old city club while on a visit to San Francisco. This hardship would have been incurred because the club at Keswick is affillated with the a: soctation, whereas, if it were not so affili- ated its members would have been under no such disability. The amendment, which embodled a just principle, was carried unanimously. With regard to the sugge San Francisco cricketers half the transportation expe of the visiting team from Southern Californ the delegates were of the opinion that this is impossible, as the assoclation has not | tion that the should defray sufficent funds for the purpose and the ind al players ‘could not sustain the expense. It was not regarded prac- ticable to hire an inclosed ground and | n, as the cost of printing advertising and ‘rent would be barely | | covered by the gate money. If it were necessary to lay down a concrete pitch | | a debt would be Incurred as a result of | the match Entertainment during thelr stay in San Francisco will be gladly offered by the jocal cricketers, but that is all they can do.

The K Wick roen have twice visited San Fran- cisco to play association football matches, | ana’are desirous to recelve a visit fromi fhe cricketers, many of whom play foot- | ball during the winter. A date convenient to the local players | | for a mateh would be September 9, but | the Southerners say they could not ake | | | up & satisfactory team to piay here at that time, as, the golf tournament and polo pony races at Santa Monica will be ngrossing the attention of several of | their best men. | “'fhe Burns Valley and Lakeport elevi | played a.match at Burns Valley July %. n the first inning I akeport scored 88 runs, of which A.

He went on the féllow’s trail and landed him mn the Socorro County Jail about three weeks ago. When this capture fected Blackington was lJed to believe that Gentry was also implicated. The lat- ter absented himself from the country soon after the arrest of his pal, and the Sheriff followed him to Deming, whera he ascertained that he had purchased a ticket for Redding, Cal. A dispatch was immediately sent to the Sheriff at Red- ding and .Gentry's arrest followed a few days ago. Blackington took a train for California and arrived in Redding with requisition papers just as the attorneys for Gentry were in the act of arguing their eighth habeas corpus plea for the release of the prisoner.
