UKIAH, July 21.—News of an accident | involving the loss of two lives and the injuring of several men was brought to t city to-day from Anderson Valley, | twenty miles southwest of here. The grain crop of the Smalley ranch was be- ing threshed yesterday afternoon, the old style separator and a portable engine be- ing used. A young man named Irish was in charge of the engine. Noticing that sor-ething was wrong, he crawled under 1t to make an examination. Suddenly an explosion occurred and the | entire machine, boiler, engine, wheels and all, arose several feet in the air, leaving the engineer unhurt on the ground, and were propelled a distance of fifty feet to the separator, passing entirely over it and continuing on for about eight feet far- t her. William Rose, aged about 5 years, was killed outright, a heavy casting striking him on the head, and David Leard was fatally -injured, dying soon afterward. Several others of the crew were injur The grain stacks and separator took fire and were destroyed.

Special Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, July 27.—Frank Alling of this city is organizing one of the strangest hunts ever planned in the Northwest, and in three weeks will attempt to marshal great numbers of farmers in Western ‘Washington in a gunning expedition after the colonies of crows that infest the Puget Sound country. Alling and other Northwestern sportsmen have discovered that the crows are relentlessly destroying broods of young Oriental game birds, besides making sad havoc of native birds’ nests by destroying the eggs. The crows also keep sharp supervision over farms and commit many depredations in barn- yards, and it has finally been decided to try to drive them out of the State. Alling believes his hunt will so scare the crows that the greater part of them will leave. CURIOUS ENTRY IN MAJOR FURREY’S BOOKS Libel Suit Against the Los Angeles Committee of Fifteen Produces a Sensation. 108 ANGELES, July 27.—Considerable excitement was created in the libel suit of Major W. C. Furrey against the com- mittee of fifteen to-day by the reading of an extract on the books of W. C. Furrey & Co. as follows: Charge enough to cover two days (Blumbe) on both schools. Also charge an extra day or 50 on labors if you want any profit, as you cannot charge over $2 per day for labor, and we paid that much, besides furnishing tools. Also include car fare $3 20. Franklin Flint, one of the attorneys for the defendant committee and also a mem- ber of the committee, testified that the books and bills of Furrey & Co. had been €0 manipulated that it was impossible to tell positively whether any particular goods were delivered or not and said he was satisfied that there had been a delib- erate scheme to get money out of the pub- lic treasury. Major Furrey declared that the entry heretofore quoted could be fully explain- ed. Furrey’'s suit is based upon a report published by the committee of fifteen after an investigation of city offices in the course of which Furrey & Co. were ac- cused of duplicating biils and overcharg- ing on contracts. e LSRR Lectures by Baptist Leaders.

Special Dispatch to The Call. | TACOMA, July 27.—Willlam Bishop, who represented Jefferson County in the lower house of the last Legislature, has been sued on serious allegations by Ed- wina Berry, a girl who lives near him.

FRANK P, FLINT RESIGN OFFICE L. H. Valentine Succeeds ‘Him as District Attorney. RO Change in the Southern Oali- fornia Jurisdiction to Ocour at Once. LT AT, Special Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, July 21.—Frank P. Flint, United States Attorney for the Southern District of California, will on next Thursday forward his resignation to Washington, and as soon thereafter as the commissign may issue former Assem- blyman L. H. Valentine will assume the position thus wacated. ith Mr. Flint will step down.and out James R. Finlay- son, who has been the hssistant of the office ever sing the appointment of his chief more than four years ago. The new Deputy District Attorney is to be George McKeeby of this city. The resignation of District Attorney Flint at-this time will come to the public somewhat in the nature of a surprise, as his successor had intended originally that the changes in the conduct of the office should not take place until Congress met next December, ~Mr. Flint, however, has felt for some time that his public duty was Interfering with his private practice, and the step he has decided upon is the result of this fact. L. H. Valentine had been advised sev- eral days ago by the incumbent that the latter was desirous of being relieved of duty, and he has as a result placed his own ‘affairs in shape to take hold at the point where the present District Attorney leaves off. The resignation of Mr. Flint and the appointment of his successor will be announced” from Washington simul- taneously. The latter will then flie his bond and the change will have been of- ficially consummated. The office of United States District At- torney for Southern California is worth a year, and that of the assistant $1500 a year. The jurisdiction extends half way up the San Joaquin Valley and south to San Diego. L. H. Valentine said to-day: “I am in- formed that Frank P. Flint will resign on August 1 and I am prepared to assume the duties of United States Attorney of this district as soon after that date as my appointment is announced from Washington. I shall do my utmost to conduct the affairs of the office in the same_enviable manner that has marked the efforts of my predecessor.” WANTS AN ACCOUNTING OF COMPANY’S BUSINESS Anson Stokes of New York Makes Charges Against Two Mining Men. SALT LAKE, July 27.—Sult was entered in the Federal court here to-day by Anson Phelps Stokes of New York in behalf of the Austin Mining Company, whose prop- erty is located in Nevada, against Allan | C. Washington of New York and Philo | . Farnsworth of Salt Lake, asking for | an accounting of the company’s business. | The amount involved is in the neigh- | borhood of $300,000 and in his petition Stokes brings numerous charges of fraud and mismanagement against Washington as president and Farnsworth as general manager of the company. The principal claim is that the company is not indebted to Farnsworth and ashington in the sum of $296.000, as, it is alleged, is shown by the books of the company. It is also alleged that through the frauds perpe- trated by the defendants the stock of the company was greatly depreciated and the sttockholders were damaged to the extent of "$200,000. NORTHERN WHEAT CROP A RECORD-BREAKEPR Washington’s Grain Inspector Re- ports an Unusually Heavy Yield. TACOMA, July 27.—The North Pacific Coast wheat crop will be a record breaker, according to George P. Wright, State Grain Inspector, who returned to- day from a trip through the wheat dis- tricts. Washington alone, Wright says, will produce 32,000,000 bushels. Harvesting is general now and the weather is so promising that it is belleved no wheat will be injured or lost. The labor ques- tion, which was a serious one two weeks ago, has been cleared through numbers ofoharvest hands entering the wheat dis- tricts from contiguous mining regions, especially from British Columbia, where the strike has thrown many out of em- ployment. The barley crop is a factor this year for the first time, the yield be- ing large. FOOTPAD ENRIGHT GOES TO PRISON FOR LIFE Judge Hart Inflicts the Extreme Pen- alty Upon Criminal Who Plead- ed Guilty. SACRAMENTO, July 27.—Judge E. C. Hart to-day sentenced Frank Enright, a fcotpad, who had pleaded guilty of rob- bery, to San Quentin for life. Enright was a partner of Roy Fahey, who was given a life sentence at Folsom on Tuesday last. Fahey stood trial, but Enright pleaded guilty after a jury had been called. Judge Hart said that he could find no excuse for making any difference between the sentences of the two men and that he belleved crimes of this sort should re- ceive the limit of sentence allowed by the law. Enright cursed the Judge, say- ing he hoped he would become paralyzed. Gives Bledsoe the Judgeship. SAN BERNARDINO, July 27.—Judge Shaw, presiding in the Superior Court, to- day rendered a decision in the Judgeship centest in favor of B. F.

DEALS DEATH TO ALMADEN RANCHER Coroner's J ———— ury Charges Albert Coronado With Cowardly Murder and Robbery of Francisco Norano on Santa Clara Road---Victim’s Nephew Escapes Fate of His Relative by Taking to His Heels in the Darkness AN JOSE, July 27.—Albert O. Coro- nado, charged by a Coroner’s jury with the brutal murder of Fran- clsco Norano, was lodged in the County Jail by Sheriff Langford at a late hour to-night. The evidence which has been brougkt to light is purely cir- cumstantial, but it is believed that there | will be found sufficient to prove his guilt. Norano, who is a well-known Spanish-~ American living on a ranch near the Al- maden mines, was returning home last night from a collecting trip to San Jose, with about $80 in his pockets. His nephew, & young boy, was with him, but not being mounted had fallen a hundred yards or so behind. Suddenly a shot was fired from the brush beside the trail and Norano fell from the horse. His head had been al- most torn from his shoulders by a charge of heavy shot fired at close range. The nephew hurried up and saw a man bending over his uncle and rifling his gockeh The robber raised the shot; ut before he could fire the boy dmf:end Special Dispatch to The Call. into the brush and ran for his life. For a time he heard the pursuer behind him, but in the darkness he easily made an escape to the house of Benjamin Ortega, where f the crime. heotr?le:ao an old man and alone in his cabin, was afrald to venture out, and the two remained behind barricaded doors un- til dawn. Then the alarm was given and a telephone report sent here to the Sheriff and Coroner. The body was found where it hadq fallen, the pockets empty and money, watch and rings gone. ‘When the Sheriff arrived at the scene of the crime the trail of tae murderer was at once taken up and he was tracked with some difficulty through the woods up the mountain side. About a hundred glrfll from the little cabin oronado the trail was lost. ford and Deputies Bache and Carson made inquiries of Coronado and soon became suspicious of the man. His stories of his movements during the, prececing twenty- four hours were contradictory, and his statement that he had no shotgun was disproved after a short search of the house, when an old-fashioned muzzle- loading gun was found concealed between the mattresses of the bed. Coronado’s ex- planation was that he had been hunting the previous afternoon, although he had denied but a few moments before that he ever used a shotgun. The loads of the gun were drawn out. The left-hand barrel was wadded with moss, which was identi- cal with a piece of partly burned wadding found in the hat.of the murdered man. Coronado then said that Norano was a warm_friend of his and that he had loaned him the horse on which the trip was made to San Jose. On Friday morn- ing he saw the murdered man at Guada- for the last time. T e Thquest was held by Coroner Kell at Almaden this evening and a verdict was found recommending that Coronado be held for trial for the murder. The accused man has two brothers living in San Jose, and they engaged Bert Herrington as at- torney to defend him. Herrington was waiting at the jail when Coronado was brought in and at once advised him to keep his _story to himself. Coronado, however, denied any complicity in the murder, and claimed that he was at his home with his wife during the entige even- ing. .MWWMWWW. Railroad Kept His Ticket. Herschel F. La Motte flled suit yester- day against the Southern Pacific Com- pany to recover $5000 damages for hreach of contract. La Motte avers that on July 1 he purchated an Epworth League ex- | cursion ticket at Philadelphia. He came to this city and when he desired to return to Philadelphia he alleges that he ap- peared at the office of the raflroad joint agent for the glggpose of having his ticket e “validated.” joint agent compelled him to sign his name four times, he al- leges, and then forced him to remove his hat in .the presence of about a hun- dred people that the agent might see where the hat was manufactured. Not- withstanding the fact that the hat was manufactured in Philadelphia and that his signature corresponded to that on the ticket, Lamotte avers that the agent re- fused to return him the ticket, stating that he was not the original purchaser thereof. In addition to $5000 cdamages La Motte asks for judgment compelling the Southern Pacific to pay his ¢xpenses by his forced detention in this city. ey Broad Mandamuses Tax Collector. Charles E. Broad has petitioned the Su- perior Court for a writ of mandate to compel Tax Collector Scott to permit him to qualify as an experienced clerk in the Tax Collector’s office. Broad alleges that, although his name alone was certified to the Tax Collector when a vacancy oc- curred, Scott refused to recognize the cer- tification and appointed another eligible on the civil service list to fill the vacancy. Hence the filing of the petition for a writ of mandate. | Ancient Workmen’s Anniversary.
