ACRAMENTO, Sept. 10.—Another great throng went through the turnstiles at the pavilion of the State Agricultural Society to-night to see the wonderful exhibits that have been so tastefully arranged on the main floor, in the wings and throughout the galleries. The main floor, with its towering exhibits, resplendent in color and electric lights, is perhaps the finest ever seen in the pavilion. The most elab- orate shows are made by local business firms, many of which have expended hun- dreds of dollars to make their exhibits at- tractive.

When he arrived there he found that the strong forces under Gen- cral Herrera had retired from Agua Dulce, which is situated between two big rivers, the Santa Maria and the Nata, and General Berti entered and took pos- gession of the town. The insurgents’ gunboat Padilla cap- tered the port of Agua Dulce, severing General Berti’s communication with Pan- ama by sea, and the siege of Agua Dulce was begun. The Padilla also captured the | Government gunboat Boyaca, which was coyveying reinforcements to General Berti, and the situation of the Govern- ment general became precarious. General Bertl expected help from Panama, but this never came. He resisted the enemy as long as possible before he surrendered. During the first attack upon Agua Dulce the Liberals lost a large number of men. Finally, the lack of food, sickness among his soldiers and the fact that he received no reinforcements compelled General Berti to surrender to General Herrera, after a siege lasting over one month. TWO THOUSAND YIELD. WASHINGTON, Se!:t. 10.—The Navy Department is in receipt of the following cablegram, dated Panama to-da&', from Commander Pottgr of the United States | ship Ranger: “Two thousand men surrendered to revolutionists at Agua Dulce, Colombia. Revolutionists reported advancing near Panama, Colombia."” ' COLON, Colombia, Sept. 10.—The Gov- ernment gunboat General Pinzon arrived here this morning from Carthagena. She brought eighty mules. Government forces have defeated a de- tachment of revolutionists at Pen®on, on the Magdalena River. The Government cruiser Carthagena is still at Carthagena. Two Government commissioners left here to-day for Savanilla for the purpose of impressing upon the Governor of the Department of Bolivar the immediate necessity for additional reinforcements on the isthmus. Quicker Time to Chicago. Important Changes by the Santa Fe. On and after September 11 the time of the California Limited between San Francisco and Chicago will be shortened and changes made in local trains, See time in this paper, R = products of El Dorado County. Several Sacramento County citizens have made an excellent showing from their gardens, orchards and vineyards and there are other displays that will be put in place before the close of the week. There is the usual display of flora, cut flowers and pottad plants and on the whole the East- ern visitor can get a good idea of what this soil and climate produce, from a squash to a pomegranate and from a mammoth Baldwin to a diminutive carbapple. Jellies and jams, canned and bottled preserved fruits are shown in great quantities. 5 The machinery and farm implement section is full of interesting labor-saving devices. Superintendent W. F. Jackson has pro- cured more than 400 fine paintings and pic- tures for the art gallery. There are but half a dozen which could be termed large canvases, but there are scores of smaller ones that are of unusual merit, from the e B Rt AUS3IA OPPOSES THE FOREIGNERS British Customs Em- ployes Must Leave Manchuria. PEKING, Sept. 10.—Paul Laesser, the Russian Minister here, has advised the Russian commander in Manchuria that the presence of foreigners in Manchuria during the military occupation js objec- tionable and he is directed to expel the British Imperial Customs employes who may be sent to Manchuria to resume charge of the postal service. According to advices received here from Manchuria the Russians are making no visible preparations to withdraw from the military ocupation of the southwest portion of the province of Shang King, as was stipulated should be done within six months of the signing of the treaty. Russian troops and immigrants are re- ported to be entering Manchuria in large numbers, but none are leaving the coun- try. TIENTSIN, Sept. 10.—Colonel Baron Kopp, director of Manchurian railways; General EBolkoff, acting Governor, and other Russian officers of Manchuria have gone to Peking in connection *with_the negotiations _for the withdrawal of Rus- sian troops from Manchuria and the res- toration of the Shanhaikwan lway. ‘WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.—While Laes- ser's nochel%t the intention of the Rus- sian Government to expel foreigners from Manchuria has not been formally brought to the attention of the State Department, it can be predicted safely that for the present at least our Government will look upon this matter as one involving Rus- sia, China and England, and as one in which it is not directly concerned. So far as is known here, there are no Americans in that section of China, and if it should appear later that there are some Ameri- can prospectors in that country it is not probable the decree would be enforced in their cases, as while in_terms the decree really is almed at the British studios of the most noted artists in Cali- fornia. % ¥ At a meeting of the directors it was de- cided to give a McKinley memorial con- cert in the pavilion next Sunday night, be- ginning_at 7 o'clock, Bennett’s Band to supply the music.

The festivities of the evening will begin with a street parade, to start from the hall, Ninth and J streets, at 7:20 o'clock. The parade will be headed by a Chinese band. It will be luminous with lanterns and colored fires and will include many amusing and grotesque fea- tures, chief among them a gigantic dragon 100 feet long.

One number on the programme will be a four-round contest between two Celestial hfghbinders for the I-street championship and a bottle of chow-chow. The first stock parade will be held to- morrow morning at 10 o'clock. A great number of the choicest dairy herds of cat- tic will be seen in the parade, together with high-class roadsters, thoroughbreds and standard trotters.

The- Mackenzie board just before it went out of office removed eighteen teachers, whom the Worswick regime put back when it came into power. Shortly afterward the ‘Worswick board dropped twenty teachers, but it has reinstated a few of them.

It is probable, however, that the British Government will take this view of the matter, and it is fully expected that the British Minister at Peking will call on the Chinese Government to retain these British customs officials, despite the Russian order. | detail of firemen were sent out to aid in j For a time it was feared that the entire | story 500 tons of barley was burned. | time the building and machinery were he had re-: ceived his commission from the regular .

W vick of this city was ap- pealed to for aid and two engines and a fighting the fire. When they arrived the malthouse was a mass of flames and the high towers on the building were as chim- neys, up which the flames roared with such intensity y could be heard a couvple of blocks away. The brewery and car company men and the volunteer fire- men fought the blaze as best they could, but wher the detail of city firemen ar- rived it had gained such headway that all that could be done was to attempt to save the_ structires adjoining the malt- house. Santa Clara firemen also re- sponded. From the malthouse the fire spread into the engine-room and-the storage depart- ment. There the firemen expended most of their efforts, but the engine-room was destroyed, as was a one-story warehouse to_the west of the malthouse. Just how the fire started no one knows. ‘When discovered it had gained such head- way that the workmen could not enter the room on the second floor and within a short time the flames had spread through the entire five floors of the malt- house. The office and storeroom and the front of the brewery were saved. As the flames raged in the big malt- house the work of the firemen became very dangerous. The towers on the bulld- ing fell intc Cinnabar street, and from time to time the brick walls crumbled and toppled over. A considerable amount of oil was stored in the building. The malthouse which was burned was a six-story brick building. 200 feet square.

Nothing is left standing of the biz malthouse but its broken walls, and the engine-house, which is badly damaged, may have to be torn down. It is said to have been fully insured.

MONTEREY, Sept. 10.—Fire broke out in Lambert's planing mill shortly before 3 o’clock this morning, and in a short a total loss.
