S B A big deal involving $600,000 and the ex- | tensive Northern California valleys was consum- i mated sterday in this city when the Anglo-Californian Bank, for the considera- tion mentioned, transferred to a number | of Eastern and local capitalists all its | Interest in the Navarro Mill and Lumber Company’'s property in Mendocino | County. : | The property consists of 30,000 acres of | valuable timber land on the western side | of Mendocino County and includes the | sea coast town of Navarro with its wharves and buildings and about four- | teen and a half miles of rallroad extend- | ing through the timber belt. The purchaser is the Pacific Coast | Redwood Company, which was organized | yesterday with a capital stock of $2,500,000 |and for the expressed purpose of engag- |ing in the lumber business and the con- struction of railroads. The directors of the corporation are: President, D. H. Moon: vice president, | Allan A, Curtis; treasurer, S. G. Cook; | directors, Charles Clunie, J. A. Sinclair and G. B. Shaw. | The majority of the directors are wealthy Eastern men. Mr. Moon is a capitalist of St. Paul, who leaves to-day on the Siberia with Detective William N. Pinkerton on a tour of the Orient. Allan A. Curtis resides in San Rafael. Mr. Cook is a wealthy resident of Minne- sota and Mr. Shaw is a banker of | Chicago. General Clunie known capitalist and ex-Congressman of this city. | The company purposes to take charge of the property and proceed at once with the construction of large and modern sawmills to take the place of the one which was destroyed by fire several months ago. IMPORTANT TRANSACTION. While the transaction as a whole is an important one, the fact that the company is seriously contemplating the immediate | construction of a raflroad across Mendo- cino County and through a portion of Sonoma County to connect with the Cali- fornia Northwestern road at Cloverdale, doubles the importance of the deal. Un- der the present conditions lumber from | the town of Navarro, where by a trolley offshore. : new company is not in favor of | this method of handling its redwood pro- duct and before the deal was effected vesterday its stockholders had carefully considered plans for connecting their 30,- | 000 acres of timber with the main line, | having a terminal on the Bay of San | Francisco. It was decided that the quick- | est and cheapest plan would be to build | & rallroad from Mendocino County in a | southeasterly direction to Cloverdale, in | Sonoma County, a distance of sixty miles. | | [ | | | | In the construction of this road the four- teen miles of right of way which the company owns and upon which there is a lumber railroad, could be used as a nuclens of a longer and more substantial railway. ‘The line of the new road, if the present plans are earried out, will cross Anderson Valley, one of the richest valleys in Northern California, and contribute much toward fulfilling the anticipation of the farmers and residents of that section of the State. BANKER'S STATEMENT. Discussing the plans for the road last night, Banker Shaw sald: ‘“We were not over amnxious that the | rallroad feature of our northern under- taking should become public at this par- ticular time, for there are matters at stake that might be jeopardized by a pre- | mature announcement. | “The fact is, however, that Eastern men, who are now investing heau- y in Californfa timber lands, are not ac- stomed to lightering or handling by trolley wires their lumber, as is being done at varro. In building a road of xty odd miles to Cloyerdale the main e that prompted us, of course, was v sire to facilitate the shipment of our product to a ready market, but we | decided that if we were to build a road we might as well build a good one and enjoy some of the profits that might ac- | crue In carrying passengers and trans- | porting other peoples’ product to market. | Hence our idea of running our proposed line through Anderson Valley to Clover- dale, a most promising town.” It was also learned that one of the rea. sons for capitalizing the company at $2,500,000 was to prepare the company in e its directors decided to btild the rcad, making additional funds necessary. ANTI-INJUNCTION BILL. Assembly Passes It With Scarcely a ‘Word of,Oppgsition. CALL HEADQUARTERS EACRAMENTO, March 10.—The much discussed anti-injunction bill which caused such long and bitter debate weveral weeks ago, was passed by the Assem. bly to-night almost without opposition. The unlon labor members, at whose request the bill was introduced by Johnson, did not appear to be anxious for its passage. In fact, they had virtually repudiated it because of the amend- ments which had been made to it. The vote was 63 to 2. The Assembly to-night passed Drew's bill (A. B. 36%) appropriating $100,000 for a Cali- fornia exhibit at the St. Louls Exposition next year. This bill differs in many respects from that of Benator Smith, which has passed the upper house. It was stated by Dunlap to- night that the plan is to pass both bills if pos- sible and submit them to the Governor so that he may chocse between them. Smith's bill is now on the Assemoly special urgency fila and will probably be reached to-morrow. It is un- derstond_on excelient authority that the Ge ernor will select Smith’'s bill, which carries an eppropriation of 130,000 and provides for the appolntment of two commissioners. P X T Cruelty Is Not Defined. SACRAMENTO, March 10.—After a _debate lasting nearly an hour and participated in by all the lawyers who are members of th gembly, that body denied passage to Fisk's (A.

The object of the bill was to eliminate from the law the pro- vision that extreme mental anguish shall be censidered as constituting cruelty and may be made o cause for divorce, —e——————— Coronation Choir Matinee.

CALL HBADQUARTERS, SACRAMENTO, March 10.—Assemblymen Traber and Finn members of the special committee which inve: tigated the affairs of the State prisons at San Quentin and Folsom, filed a minority report on | the matter to-day, that the administration at San Quentin under the present Warden is not what it should be, and they give an excuse why Agulrre is able to make a showing which could not be made were it possible to get at the whole truth. These members concurred in most of the recommenda- tions made by the mafority of the committes, but they do not approve of Aguirre's methods or of the use of the straitjacket as a means of punishment. In their: report they have this to say of San Quentin affairs: “In the majority report the discipline main- tained by the Warden at San Quentin has been praised. With this we disagree. We find that though the discipline maintained at San Quen- tin is good, it is a discipline induced by fear of the Warden alone and not by reason of con- fidence or respect on the part of the convicts toward the Warden. Our observations lead to belleve that the Warden has. by working on the fears of the convi or permanently digabled, and by the use of the straitjacket, 8o cowed the convicts that there is a show of confldence or. respect, but that it is only induced by fear. The Warden at San Quentin has as officers under him close friends, and they all stand close with the Warden. “It {s our bellef, based on what we have seen and heard, that many cruelties have been prac- ticed in that institution that your committee could not, or did not, hear of because the con- Victs feared for themselves if they revealed the true state of affairs, and because of the cordon of his friends with which the Warden has sur- rounded the secrets of the Institution. We wish further to add that the doctors at both prisons are incompetent, careless and harsh and negligent of their dutles. They seem to think that prisoners have no right to be sick and are not deserving of treatment. In our judgment many men needing treatment are heglected simply becauso the doctors fear they will be imposed upon by some prisoner faking 1 3 % consider that the Board of Prison Di- rectors have been extremely derelict in their duti It appears that they have held their meetings very irregularly and at these times have only vised the accounts and have not made inquiries regarding the actual needs of the prison, its discipline and the abuse of the prisonérs. They should be compelied to attend to their duties or be removed from office and men who are competent and willing to perform their dutles put In their places. ““We base our conclusions upon many things heard at both prisons, but the sources cf which we dare not reveal for fear that ven- geance will be m‘kt.id upon the persons who revealed the {nformation.” As to the use of the straltjacket the minor- ity report says: Y We recommend that the straitfacket as & means of punishment and discipline be abol- ished by law for the reason that its use is cruel and inhuman even when used in the most moderate way possible, and that it should not be allowed by any civilized peopie a means of punishment. In this behal cubmit that the straitjacket as used is such that when a convict is placed fn it he is compelled to lie helpless in his own filth, with no recourse—a condition we would hes- itate to place a brute in. In the hands of men prejudiced as the prison officlals often = in which they point out | ir being killed | are, it becomes an Instrument of torture, the inhumanity of which canfot be pictured. “Many iInstances have occurred where men not in authority, mere subordinates, have had the sole power to punish by this means. The disposition of the Warden, the subordinate officers and doctors to treat convicts as not deserving of consideration or pity and only worthy of the treatment accorded brutes, leads us to the conclusion that the straitjacket is a dangerous instrument to leave in the hands of ordinary men subject to ordinary human passions. California is the only State where such punishment is practiced or al- lowed, and vet records and statistics show that in discipline, management and control the | California prisons rank lower than those of any other State.'” It is pointed out in the minority report that the use of the straitjacket was begun only during the present administrations at both the prisons; that. the discipline there formerly was much better than it s now and this is glven as an additional reason why there should be a change of wardens at both prisons and as showing the Incompetency of Aguirre and Wilkinson. ST SRS DISPOSAL OF MARKET LAND. Assembly Passes McMartin's Bill . After a Storm of Debate. SACRAMENTO, March 10.—After & epirited debate, numerous calls of the roll of absentees and finally a call of the House, the Assembly | passed this afternoon Senate bill No. 589. The | bill provides for the lease for a term of years, | the exchange under certain conditions or the sale outright for a reasonable consideration of certain parcels of land in San Francisco now dedicated to be used as a public market. This land is described in the bill only in very gen- eral terms, McMartin had charge of the bill-and stated that- there was no reason why It should not be | passed. Camp demanded to know how the San | Francisco delegation stood on the matter and McMartin replied that they wére unanimously Mahany of S8an Francisco | in favor of the bill. challenged this statement and vigorously at- tacked the bill, saying that the land proposed 10 be s0ld or exchanged was now sirrounded by | raflroad tracks and that the Southern Pacific Company desired to purchase It because it was valuable to them. He doubted the city's title to the land because it is practically water front property, which is controlled by the State. Brown of San Mateo demanded of McMartin he tell ocation of the land. The reply ‘was that it tract below the Southern Pa- cific depot, at Third and Townsend streets, { which had'been dedicated for use as a public market, but now it was unflt for that use. It was desired efther to sell it or exchange it. On final rolicall it was seen that the bill was in | danger and a call of the House was resorted to. During the recess caused thereby there was a scurrying of the railroad lobby and urgent ap- peals to certain members to change their votes. Atter the call & sufficient pumber of changes to Were made to pass the bill, e il s oidiond] GOVERNOR SIGNS BILLS. Signature of the State Executive Af- fixed to More Measures. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRAMENTO, March 10.—Governor Pardee signed another batch of bills this morning. They are as follows: - Senate bill No. 812, by Curtin, relates to the adoption of children. It provides that any child being a half orphan and kept and maln- tained in any orphan asylum in this State for more than two years may be adopted with the consent of the managers of such orphans’ home without the consent of the parent, un- less such parent has paid toward the ex- penses of maintenance of such half orphan at least a le sum during the said time if able to do so. Senate bill No. 847, by Ralston, permits the directors of the Stafe Mining Bureau to fol- low the practice of the Federal Government in disposing of its publications by charging encugh to pay_for printing. Senate bill No, 196, by Wolfe, relates to the transfer of property presumed to be fraud- | Brevents o transser of property by vetall mer: ents a of ps Y mer- | Phanta In bulk. Under the old law it was difficult to secure convictions. It also pro- vides that the assignment of a stock In trade (or of such a quantity of a stock in trade as to be substantially a whole) in bulk, or in any manner otherwise than in the ordinary course of trade will be conclusively presumed to be fraudulent void as against the ex- isting creditors of the assignor, unless at least five days before the consummation of such sale the vendor or the [intended] vendes shall record in the office of the County Recorder a notice of sald intended sale, stating the name and address of the intended vendor and the name and address of the intended vendee, and a general statement of the character of the property intended ‘to be transferred, and the date when and the place where the pur- chase price, if any there be, is to be pald. Serate bill No. 24, by Selvage, appropriates $250 to pay the claim of Thomas D. Rlordan for professional services. Secretary of State Curry in the action brought by E. J. twice on the ballot. Senate bill No. 372, by Luchsinger, relates v exempt from execution. v bill No. 681, by Greer, appropri- ates $539 99 to pay the deficiency in the comts and expenses of sult fund of the Attorney General's office. Assembly bill No, 138, by Greer, appropri- ates $5000 for the purpose of {mproving the grounds and repairing the bulldings o Sutter ort. Assembly bill No. 499, by Waste, relates to primary elections. It amends the present law in a slight degree. Assembly bill No. 635, by Walsh, limits th hours of service of laborers, workmen and mechanics upon the public works or work don: for the State to eight hours a day. a penalty of $500 on whoever violates the law. Assembly bill No, 126, by Walker, appro- priates $5000 for repair work and improv ments on the State Normal School of Jose. Assembly bill No. 262, by Walsh, provides for the formation, government, operation and dissclution of sanitary districts in any part of the State. i e ASSEMBLY SCORES WOLCOTT. Stenographer Comes Near Going to Jail for Defying Lawmakers. SACRAMENTO, March 10.—E. T. Wolcott, the attache of the Assembly about the pay- San | ment of whose clatm for extra work as a | stenographer there has been much discussion and which claim was finally reduced from $106 to $150, does not know how near he came to being sent to jall to-day for contempt of the House. Only his abject surrender to the demand made by the Assembly saved him from severe punishment. Wolcott had in his possession the transcript of testimony taken befors the Jessup Fund Investigating Committee, and when his claim for stenographic services was reduced he fssued a defl to the committee and told them that they must pay him $196 for his work or do without that transcript. This was reported to the Assembly and several members were in favor of punishing him. ~Speaker Fisk stated that he would entertain a motion to make such disposition of® the matter as the Assembly desired, and Knight moved that the Riordan represented | It fixes | voucher for $150 be canceled. Du; ever, prevailed upon the Assembly to notify Wolcott that he must surrender that tramscript how- by 3 o'clock this afterncon. At that hour a communication was read from Wolcott saying that he would surrender the transeript forth- with. Had he not done so it had been de= cided to place him under arrest and send him to jail If necessary. N, VETO POWER EXERCISED. Governor mupp;a' of Bill Relat- Livernash to have his name appear| _ i0g to Land Patent Issuance. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRAMENTO, i | March 10.—Governor Pardee to-day vetoed Se: ate Bill 236. His reasons for doing so are as follows: “This bill amends section 3521 of the | Political Code relating to the time when | patents to lands purchased from the State shall issue. The proposed amendments, in so far as they provide for a four weeks' publlcation of notice of intentlon to apply for a patent to | State lands before such patent shall issue, seem t my mind to be a salutary addition to the law as it now stands. But the following amendment has also been added to this sec- fon: ‘The.provisions of this section shall not PpIY to tide lands nor lands uncovered by the recession and drainage of the waters of inland lakes subject to sale under the act of March 24, 1863, or to applications filed prior to the passage of this act.” This would allow patents | to all tide lands (which include water front | lands between high and low tide), and to ail lands uncovered by recession and dralnage of | inland lakes, to issue without giving any pub- lic notice, or waiting one year after approval of the survey by the Surveyor Gemeral. No sufficient reason has been given for this exemption of tide lands and lake lands from the provisions of this section.” et it BARBER BOARD DOOMED. \ Effort to Have the Abolition Meas- ure Reconsidered Is Defeated. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRAMENTO, | March 10.—The proponents of the bill to abol ish the State Board of Barber Examiners clinched their victory of yesterday this after- noon by defeating an effort to have reconsid- ered the vote whereby the bill was passed. The motion to reconsider was made by rsey, who had hoped, as a result of some rd work which had been doae over night, to able to resur- rect the bill.
