Rumble was found at his offices, 57 and 58 Chronicle building. He expressed re- gret that the arrest had not been ' made | earlier in the day so that he might have | had more time in which to procure his| bail. The complaint, which is sworn to| by Inspector O'Connell, alleges that on | March 1, 193, Rumble devised a scheme | to defraud G. Morgan Lesher of Fre-| { mont, Obio, and Fiunk T.

He further represented | that during the nine years of the opera- tion of the mines he had paid 108 monthly | dividends which represented 2 per cent, per month on the par value of the stock. It is alleged further that these repre- sentations were false and that the only | mining property owned by the Sunset Mining Company was the Old Glory mine, which was incorporated on March 3, 1900, As a proof of his solvency and good stand- ing in the community Rumble used to refer his correspondents to the Alliance Bank, an institution created by himself, it is alleged, with paper capital. etc.; a good wearing quality; ness—per yard . .

Between | his two terms in San Quentin he served a term of four months. in the County Jail. He was arrested for robbery, but | the charge was reduced to petty larceny.

Speclal Dispatch to The Call. REDDING, Oct. 20.—Standing on the bank of the Sacramento River, naked and shivering, his unbalanced brain burning with fever, J. Belladieu, an insane man from Seattle, was found this morning by a Southern Pacific train crew. The man escaped yesterday from his keeper, H. Welch, at Bairds Spur. He in some way got off the train when it made a stop. The unfortunate man had been roaming along the bank of the river for twenty-four hours. He was in all proba- bility attracted to the water’s edge to get a drink and suddenly becoming wio- lent, he stripped the clothes from his back and plunged into the icy water. It took several men to overpower the insane man. The struggle was long and flerce, but the strength of the section hands finally told and Belladieu was se- curely bound, hand and foot. Deputy Sheriff Nathaniel Limbaugh brought Bel- ladieu to Redding, where he is confined in the padded cell of the insane ward of the county jall. He was formerly an ac- tor and had been insane at Seattle for the past four years. He was being taken ‘Welch to San Francisco to be put in rivate sanitarium. e GOVERNOR APPOINTS OFFICERS OF THE STAFF Colonels and Lieutenant Colonels Will Glitter in the State Service.
