THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1899. CINNAMON BEAR PLAYS HAVOC WITH DAIRY HERD Bruin's Invasion Creates Consternation Among Residents in the Vicinity of Tocaloma. CAMP TAYLOR, Sept. 1.—A large and ferocious cinnamon bear has of late been playing havoc with dairy herds in the vicinity. of Tocaloma and all attempts to trap or kill the animal have failed. Aside from the pecuniary loss suffered by dairymen from the depredations is the con- stant fear that the beast may take a notion to change its diet and try human flesh. As a result doors and windows are tightly bolted at night, and women and children are chary about straying far from home by day. P. Bulotti, the dairyman, is the heaviest sufferer from the bear’'s raids up to date, having lost three milch cows. Last Wednesday he saw the bear eating the carcass of a cow freshly slain and ran for his rifle. He had some distance to go, and when he returned the animal had fin- ishéd its meal and gone. Bulotti says the bear is very large and of the cinnamon varlety. He notified Sheriff Taylor of its presence, and asked that some action be taken for relief of the dairymen. Next Sunday the Sheriff will gather a posse of sportsmen, and with Timothy McCarthy of this place, will endeavor to run the b - to cover and kill it. A pack of trained dogs will be gathered from all over the county to assist in the hunt. BARBARLLS CRUELTES TO THE WATHES Crimes Committed by French | Officers in the Soudan Country.

It | was a case of a tall and reachy left-hand jabber against a stocky and aggressive | mixer, Harris contenting himself with meeting Barry’s rushes with short jabs land an occasional right-hand swing. Barry had considerably the better of it up to the third round, scoring some tell- ing rights. In the fourth Harris evened ip matters with a couple of hard upper~ | cuts and repeated jabs on Barry's mouth.

Special Dispatch to The Call SEATTLE, Sept. 1.—Two steamers ar- rived from Alaska to-day bringing about 500 miners, fortunate and unfortunate. | The Laurada came from St. Michael and | the Humboldt from Skagway. The total | amount of gold dust they brought down | is estimated at half a milllon. The re-| ports from the Cape Nome district are | still conflicting, but the fact remains that considerable gold dust was brought from there by passengers on the Laurada. The dust very fine and has to be amalga- mated. S. M. Warren and H. O. Roberts of Denver brought out $50,000 from the Eagle Sonoma | ity gistrict. J. Dickinson, who has been train | in that district six years, had $25.000. From the Klondike came J. H. Ladd with $20,000, E.

The men, many of whom have been working for salaries ranging from $50 to $75 a month, have been crazed by the reports recently brought over from Anvil City by returning miners, every one of whom 1s loaded down with beac! gold. Added to this is the demand made Upon the trading companies for quick- silver, copper plate, cyanide and other articles used in rockering. Money is no object in the purchase of these articles, and it is not an uncommon occurrence to see men offer $3 a pound for quicksilver and as much for copper plate, A nugget weighing an ounce was found last week on the beach, and when the news was circulated there was a wilder rush than ever to secure rockers. Miners working on the creek claims threw down their shovels and asked for their time that they might share in the good luck of the 500 or more men on the beach. The Tesult was a general advance in wages. Noble Wallingford of Seattle and part- ner in twenty hours’ work one day last Friday Mr. Wallingford took out $18.

SANTA CRUZ, Sept.” 1.—Through the ef- forts of citizens an agreement has been reached with the Hihn Company for the transfer of its water system to the city of Santa Cruz, thus ending the water is- sue, which has been before the people of Santa Cruz ever since the city constructed its own system. At an informal meeting held last evening by the City Council the proposition of the Hihn Company was ac- cepted. The agreement carries with it an additional agreement that the Hihn Com- pany will sell to the city the Brancefort system whenever E; Santa Cruz shall be come a part of the city, the value thereof to be determined by arbitration. All litigation between the city and com- to be dropped, the latter paying and costs. Recently the city offered to purchase the Hihn system for $180,000, at the rate of $500 per month for thirty vears, at the end of which time the city was to become the absolute owner. The corporation was will- ing to sell its system within the limits of the city, but declined to hose of that part of ‘the system which supplied Santa Cruz. All negotiations were there- upon declared off, and the Council adopted a resolution giving free water for do- mestic purposes on and after September 1. resulted in a reduction of the reve- derived by the Hihn Company, and the latter then came to terms. The addition of these systems to its own will give the city an income which in time will almost defray the running expenses of the municipal government, and is ex- pected to make a material reduction in the tax rate. e el SIX HUNDRED LIVES LOST IN A COPPER MINE The Levels Are Flooded and the Im- prisoned Miners Meet a Ter- rible Death.
