A. Clark of Montana arrived | at the Palace Hotel last evening. He is| en route to inspect his copper mine in Ari- ‘1 zona and will leave for Los Angeles on the “Owl” this evening. He says that| work is favorably progressing on the Salt | Lake and San Pedro Rallroad and that! be in operation in two years. s popular not alone in the | She testified that since they | The surveys for the road are completed in Nevada and Utah and nearly all in| California. Construction work is com- | pleted from San Pedro to Pomona and the road would have been built as far as Riverside but for a dispute with many of the property-holders, which has caused much delay. The new road will not run | through San Bernardino on account of the | grade. Senator Clark said that the road will shorten the distance between Salt | Lake and Los Angeles by rail 780 miles. “I am not associated with any one in| |the new road,” said -Semator Clark. “There have been reports that Gould was with me in the enterprise, but the state-; ! ments are not true. 1 have not definitely decided whether I will extend the road to San Francisco or not. 1 have nothing to do with Prince Poniatowski and have not authorized him or any one to make a sur-| vey to this city or to look into the right| of way price. | “Eastern papers are very anxious to, know if 1 have bought the Independent, a daily newspaper at Helena, Mont. 1 have not bought the paper, but T have an i option on it. 1 own the Miner of Butte, the Tribune of Great Falls and the Herald of Salt Lake. 1 cannot say that these { papers pay, but I like to own the papers }and I like to associate with newspaper | men, as 1 am somewhat of a Bohemian myself. “I have not purchased a residence in Southern California, nor do I intend pur- chasing one. I am erecting a home on Fifth avenue, New York, which will set the pace for New_ Yorkers to copy.

The Fish Commissioners have discbvered that J. M. Markley of Eureka is the per- son who shipped 800 deer hides to this city several weeks ago under an assumed name. The hides were consigned to the wife of the accused and are said to have been intended for a local tannery.

BALL Coroner’s Jury Refuses to Obey Ex- plicit Instructions to Censure Her Physician. In the inquest into the cause of death of Mrs. Katherine L. Ball, who passed away at the Hedges on Stockton street, a Coroner’s jury decided that death had been caused by fatty degeneration of the heart, starvation being the contributory cause. The woman, with the consent and approval of her physician, had fasted for fifty days. Dr. J. C. Anthony testified that he had advised Mrs. Ball to keep fasting until she became hungry. He admitted that he did not make a physical examination of the lady to ascertain whether or not the fast- ing was injuring her. Coroner Leland in- structed the jury to censure Dr. Anthony | for his management of the case, but the | jury aisregarded the instructions, for the reason, as was afterward explained, that it would be impossible under the evidence ) iccxure the doctor’s conviction for mal- oractice.

EATH closed a brilliant ‘ career when Miss Querita Vincent pass- ed away suddenly yesterday morning at the home of her fam- ily in this city. She had been suffering from consumption for several months past, but it was not thought that the end was so near. Miss Vincent was one of the most pop- ular actresses on the vaudeville stage. She was a California girl, whose exception- al talents finally led her to yield to the ad- vice of her friends to take up a profes- sional career. That was only three or four years ago, but her success was in- stantaneous. She was tall, slender, grace- ful and handsome and possessed of a sweet voice and a rare charm of manner, which won her great popularity. Indeed, it was her rare disposition that made her & stage favorite from the Atlantic to the Pacific. It was a benefit matinee at the Orpheum that determined Querita Vincent’s career. Her rendering of “‘Mr. Johnson, Turn Me Loose,” with its incidental actin and dancing, was so thoroughly new and novel that the question was settled for her be- fore the curtain fell on her specialty that afternoon. She had made a tremendous hit. She was given a flattering offer, ac- cepted it, and was starred in all the lead- ing vaudeville theaters in America. It was at this same benefit matinee that Miss Vincent attracted the attention of the Rays, and later they succeeded in making her a member of their comedy company playing “A Hot Time.” During their engagement in Washington she was the recipient of a very unusual and distinguished honor. Her winsome specialties had become so popular that she was Invited to an afternoon reception aboard the United States Government yacht, on which President McKinley cruised whenever the cares of state per- mitted. It was being generally regretted that he could not attend the reception when he unexpectedly arrived, just in time to hear Miss Vincent sing and see her dance, and was so pleased with her performance that he “patted juba” with the rest in the general excess of enthus- iasm. Later he personally congratulated her on her accomplishments. After this engagement with the Rays, Miss Vincent returned to vaudeville, ap- pearing again at the Orpheum about a year ago, where her singing of ‘‘Just Be- cause She Made Them Goo Goo Eyes,” which she first introduced here, created a veritable sensation. A little later’the dread malady compelled her to give up the stage. The funeral will be held from St. Mary's Cathedral on Saturday morning at 10 o’clock. The interment will take place at Holy Cross Cemetery, L e e e ] CIRCULARS ISSUED FOR ARREST OF DILLARD Internal Revenue Agents Still in the | Dark Respecting Absconder’s Whereabouts. Absconding Clerk Dillard’s whereabouts continue to remain unknown to the in- ternal revenue agents, and although he was indicted on July 3, the first official step to notify the public that he was an absconder was taken yesterday, when United States Marshal Shine mailed -to 4nternal revenue agents and United States Marshals all over the country coples of a circular containing Dillard's hoto- graph, a. full description of him and offer of $100 reward.

Emma Holz, a girl between 15 and 16 years of age, who lives. with her aunt, Mrs. Tillie Taylor, in Fruitvale, swore to a complaint a few days ago before Judge | Mogan charging Rafael Torres, her danc: ing master, with a criminal offense. She stated that he had brought her to this city on July 22 and they had lived together as husband and wife for a week at 23% Sixth street. When the case was called yesterday she astounded the Judge by alleging that she had not sworn to the truth when the warrant was issued and that Torres was innocent of any wrongdoing. The Judge said it was the rankest case of perjury he had heard and he ordered the girl into custody, prelimi- nary to charging her with perjury. The girl's aunt told the Judge that the girl had left her house for some time Wednesday afternoon to visit a Mrs. Price, a neighbor, and after leaving Mrs. | Price the girl had told a Mr. Stevens that she would not nrosecute Torres, as she would die if he were sent to jail. The Judge ordercd subpenas issued for the at- tendance of Mrs. Price and Mr. Stevens in court this morning and also instructed | Mrs. Taylor to be present. Mrs. Taylor, on ieaving the courtroom, went close to the dock and said to Torres: ‘“You | | scoundrel, you see what you have got the girl into now.” Torres is a married man | and is held to answer before the Superior Court of Alameda County for burglary.

Kelly had been annoying Mrs. Lawrence and yesterday morning she appeared at the Hall of Justice with Tessie and want. ed some action taken against Kelly, who also appeared with a lady friend, a Mrs. Nealon. Tessle was prepared to swear to a warrant for the arrest of her father for batte: but Judge Cabaniss refused to issue it. thrown her across the corridor because she had declined to go home with him. It was finally arranged that would go with Mrs. Nealon for a week, but XKelly intimated that he would call upon Judge Cabaniss and Judge Mogan to-day, as he was determined that the girl should return to her héme or be sent to a public institution. ————— WILL NOT BEGIN WORK FOR AT LEAST A YEAR Much Preparation Is Necessary Be- fore the New Custom House Can Be Started. ‘Willlam M. Bunker, the Chamber of merce representative at Washington, D. C., writes that he is informed by James K.
