Bul- lock, to recover $61,630 damages which he alleges he sustained because of a breach of contract {n not allowing him an op- tion cn_the purchase of all the first mort- gage -bonds of the Sierra Railway Com- pany of California, The West Coast Con- struction Company is a corporation or- ganized under the laws of New Jersey and controlled by A. Poniatowski and T. S. Bullock, its purpose being to construct the Sierra Railway from.the town of Oakdale, in Stanislaus County, to the town of Angeis in Calaveras County. The substance of the allegations made by the plaintiff is as follows: The Sierra Railway Company of Cali- fornia entered into a contract with the West Coast Construction Company for the building of the road from Oakdale to Jamestown, the consideration being certain capital stock and first and second mortgage bonds of the railway company. In pursuance of the contract and prior to February 2, 1888, the Sierra Railway Company delivered to the West Coast Construction Company 592 first mortgage | bonds of the par value of $592,000. The | ‘West Coast Company disposed of seventy- seven of the bonds for $77,000, after which there was left in the hands of the com- | pany, undisposed of, 515 of the first mort- gage bonds valued at $515,000. The com- pany after diligent efforts was unable to find a purchaser for its bonds. BARGAINS FOR OPTION. On February 2, 1898, the said defend- | ants, it is alleged, applied to the plaintiff and offered to sell the remaining 515 flrst‘ mortgage bonds on the following terms: | Two hundred and fifteen of said bond!!‘ for $172,000; 100 of said bonds for $90,000 payable within ninety days, and the re- maining 200 bonds for $92,500 payable on August 1, 1898, and $92,000 payable Decem- ber 1, 1898. At that time the defendants offered to the plaintiff, in consideration of his purchasing the bonds and as a bonus for such purchase, the following second mortgage bonds of the Sierra Rail- way Company: Ten second mortgage bonds valued at $10,000 and 350 shares of capital stock valued at $35000 on the; plaintiff making the payment of 390.000;1 10 second miortgage bonds valued at $10,-, 000 and 350 shares of capital stock valued'; at 3500 upon the payment of the first | 492,090, and 10 second mortgage bonds and | 300 shares of stock on the payment of | the second $52,000. The plaintiff alleges that he informed the defendants that He would accept the proposition with the following modifica- tions: That the purchase of sald 200 | bonds, so proposed to be sold to him, upon said’two payments of $92,000 each, should be at the option of the plaintiff and that the defendants should grant | | him the option of purchasing all the first mortgage bonds of the Sierra Rallway Company which should hereafter be is- sued to the West Coast Construction Company under the contract for the! building of the road. CONTRACT IS BROKEN. The plaintiff further alleges that the | defendants accepted the proposition as | modified by him. He avers that he pur- chased 315 bonds and in accordance with the proposition he securcd the option on the other 200 bonds and also the option | on all the first mortgage bonds issued by the Sierra Railway Company. He al-| | leges further that the defendants deliv- | ered to him 515 first mortgage bonds, 10| second mortgage bonds and 1000 shares of capital stock for which he paid $447,500, and that thereafter in pursuance of the option the defendants delivered to him prior to May 2, 1900, 109 first mortgage bonds at a par value of $109,000, for which | paid $100,825. In conclusion the plaintiff alleges that thereafter the Sierra Railway Company | delivered to the West Coast Construction | Company 28 first mortgage bonds with- out giving him an option on them or| notifying him of their delivery. He de- | clares that he stood réady at all times to purchase said bonds and that the re- fusal of the defendants to allow him .an option on them damaged him in the! amount sued for. DIVORCED MAN LEAVES FORTUNE TO HIS SON Boy Had Been Given Into the Cus- tody of the Mother in Colusa Years Ago. TACOMA, Oct. 15.—James Albert Wright, a young farmer of the Sunny- side country, who has spent almost all of his life in Yakima County, has fallen heir to $20,000 by the death of his father at De Kalb Center, Ill. Wright's father and mother were divorced in Colusa, Cal., in 1867, the mother being given the custody of the son, an only child. Mrs. Wright, after a number of moves, set- tled in the Yakima Valley. She heard nothing of her husband from the date of | their separation. Wright died last October. He had made a will leaving the bulk of his prop- erty to his son, if the latter were found | within two years. The - administrator, after advertising at various points, lo- cated the young man here. All that young Wright has to do to obtain his fortune is to establish his identity. S EERRE S British Entertain Our Generals.

Morrow issued a temporary re- strairing order commanding the salt trust to desist from carrying out the objects of the combination and to appear in the United States Circuit Court on November 3 for the purpose of showing cause, if any there be, why the restraining order should not be made perpetual and why tmsagreements and contracts mentioned in the bill of complaint should not be canceled. The petition for the Injunction was drawn by United States Attorney. Mar- shall ‘B. Woodworth at the request of P. C. Knox, Attorney General of the United States.

S, Jones, individually, and as surviving partners of the Haywards Lumber Company, and John Doe, Richard Roe and Sam Boe, STORY OF SECRET UNION. The affidavit on which the petition is based is sworn to by Thomas Turnbull, specially employed by the Department of Justice to investigate the matter. He deposes as follows: That the Federal Salt Company has been en- gaged in business at San Francisco since the latter part of the year 1900, its business be- ing the buying and selling of foreign and do- mestic salt in California, and throughout the Unitod States and elsewhers, and that it has secretly entered into contracts with nearly all of the Importers, producers and dealers In for- elgn and domestic =alt, which contracts are now on record in the Recorder's office at Oak- land, in Alameda County. That by means of the sald contracts the Fed- eral Salt Company has gained an almost com- plete control and monopoly of the salt trade and commerce between the State of California and cther States and Territories. ‘That the deponent, Turnbull,, requested of each of the defendants, except the Federal Salt Company, that they sell him quantities of salt, and that'in every instarce the defendants, ex- cept the Federal Salt.Company, absolutely de- clined and refused to scll any salt and stated in substance that Salt could only be purchased directly from or through the Federal Salt Com- peny. That they admitted at the same time that they were under contract with the Federal Salt Company to sell all of the salt produced by them to that company alone, and to no other corporation or person for a number of years, WORKS CLOSED DOWN. That F. F. Lund and certain others admit- ted to the deponent that they were under con- tract with the Federal Salt Company not to yroduce any salt and to close down their works for the period of five years. That the Federal Salt Company controls atout 90 per cent of the total velume of trade of domestic as well as of foreign salt within ' Territories; that the company has about .70,- 000 tons of salt stored in warehouses on Mission Rock in San Francisco Bay, and that it is ac- cumulating salt at said place for the purpose of creating a scarcity in the market within the State-of California and throughout the Pacific Coast generally with the purpose and design | of raising and keeping up high prices of salt. | That the orice of common ordinary salt, when the Federal Salt Company first begsn 1ts operations in California and on the Pacific Coast during the latter part of the year 1900 | was about §3 per ton; and that, by reason of | the operations of the Federal Salt Company and the contracts it has obtained from all of the dealers and yroducers of salt in California, and the combination it has made with all of | said dealers and producers, the price of the ! same kind of salt has risen’to about $25 per | o, SMALL DEALERS IN DANGER. It is urged further that unless a re- straining order is ,immediately issued great and oppressive results will flow from said contracts, agreements, com- bination, monopoly, trust and conspiracy, set out in sald petition and bill of com- plaint to consumers and dealers in salt | in various and divers places set out in said petition and bill of complaint. The complaint was sworn to by Mr. Turnbull, on_Octaber 10 of this year, be- fore W. B. Beaizley, deputy clerk of the United States Circuit Court. Then follow several ' other depositions in support of the petition. The first s | that of H. C. Coward of San Francisco. | He recites that previous to December, 1901, salt sold at from $3 to $6 per tonm,; but that during the past twenty-two | months, or ever since the Federal Salt Company started to do business in this State, the price has ranged from $13 to $20 per tdn, or an average of about 500 per cent advance in price. MONOPOLY IN CONTROL. He deposes further that the sald com- pany now practically controls the salt market in California and throughout the | Pacific. Coast; that it ships large quan- titles of salt to Siberia, Japan, Chinese Empire, Mexidb, Chile, Guatemala, Rus- sia, British Columbia and Canada, and that it fixes such prices upon different kinds of salt as may suit its purposes. It is further alleged that the trust is paying certain galt manufacturets in the State of California to close down their plants and not to assist in the manufac- ture of that product west of the Missis: sippi River for a period:of five years: | further, that the trust has entered finto| agrecment with other salt manufacturers and imperters outside the State of Cat- ifornia to keep out salt from the San Francisco and California markets and of the Pacific Coast. Depositions follow of a similar tenor from Oscar T. Weber of San Francisco, T. C. Harvey of Alvarado, Emilie Strouse of the Bay City Market, Samuel C. Ham- mond of the firm of Hammond & Brod, I L. Hofmann of Hofmann & Woenne, Elias Hofmann of the Pacific Butchers' Supply Company, J. H. McMenomy of ‘the California Market and John Dugan of the Newark Hotel. This will be the fourth trust to receive its death blow from the hands of the Yederal courts, Judge Mofrow and the Circuit Court of Appeals having slain the tile, mantel and grate trust, the coal trust and the red cedar shingle trust.

DETECTIVE RETURNS WITHOUT HIS PRISONLR Alfred Pler, Who Is Accused of Swindling, Escapes on Legal Technicality. Detective Harry Reynolds returned from New York yesterday morning, but ‘was not accompanied by Alfred Pler, who is wanted here on a charge of obtaimnz | $1800 by false pretenses from Mrs. Arnie Mantke, proprietress of a restaurant on Mission street, near Third. Pler, it is al- leged, represented to her that he had been promoted from a conductor on the Valén- cia-street line to the superintendency of a raflroad in the south, and had to give $2000 as security. She gave him $1800 ani | true. Pler went from here to the Buffalo Ex- postion and from there to Vienna, Aus- tria, where he represented himself as a prominent official of the Southern Pacific. He was induced to come back to this| country, and on his arrival in New York | was arrested on a dispatch “from Chief Wittman, but was released on a writ of habeas corpus on the ground that the proper mode of arresting him was by warrant. When. Reynolas reachsd New | York he arrested Pler on the warrant is- | sued here and Governor Odell signed the order for his extradition, but later witi- drew it on-a technicality. | ————— A Valuable Endorsement. A few years ago, when the new build- | ing of the San Francisco Young Men's Christian Association was started, the late George W. Gibbs headed the sub- scription list with the munificent sum of fifty thousand dollars. When Mr. Gibbs | was thanked by the commlittee for his interest and great encouragement he rve-| plied that the obligation was on the other for giving him the privilege of contrib: uting- fifty thousand dollars to an insti- tution that meant so much to the young men and youth of San Francisco. Mr. Gibbs. was for eleven consecutive years, the president of the institution and not only contributed largely of his means but ! gave much of his busy time to the de- talis of the work. This great association of young men is attracting world-wide | attention and exists in-nearly every city | of any size in the world, and is among | the most valuable civilizing agencies of have been phenomenal and over ten mil- | lion dollars was contributed to the work in endowments and erection of huildings ; in the United States last year.

The -work is non-political and’ non-sectarfan, embracing every de- nomination and crecd and men of no creed. The association in this city has| grown up with San Francisco, and has | long since been recognized as one of the most valuable agencies for the moral, so- | cial, intellectval and physical improve- ment of our yvoung men and boys.

Senator and ex-Governor For Dysp=psia and Stomach Trouble oobesescecsssessens M. C. BUTLER. - Butler of South Carolina in a re- B T | M. C. cent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co. from Washington, D. C., says: , “I can recommend Peruna for dyspepsia and stomach trouble. | / have been using your medicine for a short period and I feel very much relieved. It 1s indeed a wonderful medicine besides a gaod tonic.””—M. C. Butler. Catarrh of the Stomach Is Generally Called Dyspepsia—Something to Produce Artiflcial Diges- tlon Is Generally Taken. Hence, Pepsin, Par_ncreafln and a Fost of Other Digestive Reme- dies Have Been invented. These Remedies Do Not Reach the Seat of the Difficulty, Which Is Really Catarrh of the Stomach. This Deranges the System So That Proper Digestion Cannot Take Place. 7 > The only rational way to cure dyspepsia is to remove the &atarrh. Peruna cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce artifi- cial digestion. It cures catarrh and leaves the stomach to perform digestion in a natural way. This is vastly better and safer than resorting to artificial methods. Peruna has cured mere cases of dys- pepsia than all other rémedies combined, simply because it cures catarrh wherever located. If catarrh islocated in the head, Peruna cures it. If catarrh has fastened itself in the throat or bronchial tubes, Peruna cures it. When catarrh becomes settled in the stomach, Peruna cures it, as well in this location as any other. Peruna is not simply a remedy for dys- | pepsia. Peruna is a catarrh remedy. Peruna cures dyspepsia because it Is gen- erally dependent upon catarrh. A Most Wonderful Cure of Dyspepsia Made by Pe-ru-na. A. C. Lockhart, corner Cottage street and Thurston road, Rochester, N. Y., writes: “I am nearly forty-four years of ags, was born -and raised in Rochester, N. Y., and have been unlucky enough to be among the poor and obliged to work for a living. ‘“About fifteen years ago I commenced to be ailing, and called on a physician. He pronounced my trouble a species of dyspepsia and asked me after he had treated me about sfx months to get a leave of absence from the establishment by which I was employed (all told, about twenty-five years) and go into the coun- try where I would get a change of life and fresh air. I did so and got tempor- ary relief. I went back to work and was again taken with very distressing pains in my stomach. 1 seldom had a passage of the bowels without force. “I consulted another physician with no better results. My disease kept growing { on me, until I had exhausted the ability of sixteen of Rochester’s best physieians. Can tell their names if necessary. The last physician recommended me to give up my Work and go south, after he had practiced ‘on me for one year. They gave me a thorough examination with the X- ray with no results. They could not even determine what my ailments were. “I do not nor never have takem any stock in patent medicines, but your testi- monials in the Rochester pavers were worthy of consideration. I told my wife I was going to try a bottle of the Peruna. The next time I went to the city I pur- chased a bottle, and before the bottle was half gone I noticed a change for the better. “I am now taking the fifth bottle. and have not an ache or a pain anywhere. My bowels move regularly every day and I have taken on eighteen pounds of flesh, my usual weight being 145 pounds. I was down at one time as low_as 126 pounds. “I have recommended Peruna to a great many and they have récommended it very highly. T have told several people that complained of that species of catarrh that if they would purchase a bottle of Peruna-and take it aceording to direc- tions, and if, when the bottle was gone, they could come to me and tell me can- didly that they 'had no bemefit, 1 would pay for the bottle of medicine. T have so far had no complaints, hut all first class recommendations.”—A. C. Lockhart. If you do not derive prompt and satis- factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of vour case, and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad- vice gratis.
