MARTINEZ, Nov. 19.—Sheriff Veale of Contra Costa County to-night re- ceived word from Portland, Or., to call for Louis Daulton, who is at present at Portland, but who is wanted in Pinole on a serious charge. This is one of the most conspicuous cases that has come before the courts of Oregon. Daulton was accused by Florence Archey of Pinole. The woman declared that she had been wronged. Before an arrest could be made Daulton fled to Port- land, Or., where his family resided. Sheriff Veale of Contra Costa County went to Portland with extradition pa- pers and endeavored to secure posses- sion of the accused man. The Governor of Oregon wag absent at the tiffie, and Veale secured extradi- tion papers signed by the private secre- tary of the Governor. The friends of Daulton who reside in Portland claimed that papers signed by the private secré: tary of the Governor were not suffi- clent and as there was no Lieutenant Governor in that State at the time, Sheriff Veale did not know what to do. The case was sent to the Supreme Court of Oregon, but in the meantime Sheriff, Veale secured extradition pa- pers from the Becretary of State of Ore. gon. The extradition papers from the pri- vate secretary of the Governor of Ore- gon have been declared invalid by the |- Supreme Court, but the extradition pa- pers from the Secretary of State have been held to be valid. It is upon these papers that Daulton will be extradited. The case has become notable because of the clash of authority in Oregon. Sheriff Veale made every effort to bring his man back, but was met at every turn with technicalities which were in. terposed by the friends and relatives of Daulton in'Oregor.

Boy Handles Rifle Carelessly and a Tragedy Is the Result. e NEVADA.CITY, Nov. 19.—One of the most distressing accidents recorded in this county happened this morning at the home of Louis Guenza, at Blue Tent, about six miles above this place. Humbert and Zgcariah, two sons of Guenza, were sleeping in the same room. 'About 7 o’clock Humbert, who 1s 10 years of age, jumped out of bed to dress himself. Zacariah, who wag two years his junior, remained in bed, but was wide awake. In a corner of the room was a small rifle, which the father of the boys had bought for their pleasure. When Humbert left the bed the younger brother asked him to hand over the rifle. Humbert picked it up and was in the act of handing it, when a cartridge exploded. The bullet struck the boy in bed, penetrating his forehead and killing him instantly. —_—————— MOISTURE FRESHENS FIELDS FOR FARMERS Rainfall Is Heavy in the Interior and Fills Streets of Santa Rosa. SANTA ROSA, Nov. 19.—The rain- fall here during the Jast two days has been the heaviest of’ the:present sea- son by far. At 6 o'clock to-night the water reached clear across Fourth street in the lower end of town and obliterated the street car tracks. Gut- ters were running full on every street and in many places had encroached half way across thé sidewalks. At street corners the water stood many inches deep, and pédestrians were ¢om- pelled to wade. Santa Rosa Creek is booming, the water all running into that stream, as the ground is thoroughly soaked. The rain Wednesday afternoon amounted to 112 inches and to-day twice that amount has fallen. The record this season {s somewhat below last season. Grass is growing finely and with the | recent rains will receive an additional impetus. NAPA, Nov. 19.—Rain began falling yesterday morning and has kept up since then in steady downpour. Last night 2.7 inches fell, making the total of the season to date 3.75. At the same date last year 10.84 inches had fallen. SAN RAFAEL, Nov. 19.—The rainfall throughout Marin County has been very heavy for three days. From all points reports indicate a steady downpour. For San Rafael and vicinity 2.67 inches rain fell in the last twenty-four hours, making 8.52 for the storm and 4.44 for the season. .Grass which has been dried up for some time fs now growing. rapidly, improving the condition of Ma- rin County’s principalindustries, dairy- ing and chicken raising. The rainfall yesterday was general over all of California north of the Te- hachapi and down the coast to Point Conception. Professor McAdie of the Weather Bureau predicted last night that the storm was likely to extend over the whole southern portion of the State. A heavy southeaster raged along shore all day yesterday and is likely ‘to ‘continue to-day. At Point Reyes the wind attained a velocity of fifty-five miles an hour, and McAdie stated that there was probably a wind velocity of sixty miles an.hour in the open sea. The rainfall amounted to 1.48 inches at Red Bluff in the twelve hours preceding 5 o’clock last night. The rain- fall in San Francigco during the pres- ent storm has amounted to a trifle less than a third of an inch. Unsettled ‘weather is predicted for to-day. e STREETS FLOODED IN MISSION. Live Wires Blown Down by the Storm Prove a Menace to Pedestrians. The heavy rainfall yesterday left the streets of the Mission in a flooded con- dition. The sudden and heavy precip- itation was more than the sewers could carry off. Most of the street crossings east of Valencia street and west of San Bruno avenue from Sixteenth street to Mission Creek were flooded, causing pedestrians to seek the middle of the street. At the junction of Market and Do- lores streets a dangerous mass of live wires had been torn from the poles by the storm and endangered the lives of pedestrians. Policemen were placed on duty at the dangerous crossing to warn the traveling public of the danger lurk- ing In the broken wires. v No damage of any great moment was done, though many cellars were flooded | and a few sign boards blown down. —————.—— RELATIVES OF A COUNT TO CONTEST HIS WILL Assert That He Was Mentally Inca- pacitated When He Disposed of His Property.

Father Fe- lix Mariano Lepore, pastor of Mount Carmel Catholic Church in this city, who was shot in his apartments last night by Joseph Sorice of Pittsburg, Pa., died to-night and the physicians say that Sorice, who was shot by the clergyman, cannot recover. The story that they quarreled over a card game is discredited. It is believed that they disagreed over money matters. In an ante-mortem statement made to Judge Sales of the District Attor- ney’s office Father Lepore said that he | believed his assailant had been sent out to Denver for the purpose of kill- ing him. Since his first conversation with Sorice when he came to this city about a month ago, Father Lepore said, he had. feared the man and had thought that his life was in danger. Sorice refused to say a word either to the District. Attorney's representatives or to the detectives. Before coming to Denver. in 1892 Father Lepore conducted a banking business in New York, where it is said he failed for a considerable amount. Among the creditors, it is said, was Giuseppe Pasquel, a partner of Joseph Sorice, who came to Denver with the latter about a month and a half ago. Frank Lepore, & nephew of the priest, said that Pasquel had made a demand on Father Lepore a few days ago for $240, which he claimed the priest owed him. Young Lepore advised his uncle to give the man the money, but he did-mrot do so. However, he provided a house and employment for Sorice and Pasquel.’ Frank Lepore said that his | uncle had known Sorice and Pasquel in Italy. Efforts are being made to find Pasquel. It is believed that be- hind the tragedy lies a mystery evterd- ing Pack to old times in Italy, which it'is feared will never be solved because of the secretive nature of the Italians. PITTSBURG, Nov. 19:—Father Le- | najjy exclusively a German settlement. | pore is well known by -Italian priests in Pittsburg. Besides being popular, his friends say he invented a railroad brake and other mechanical devices. ————— RAILROADS REDUCE RATES ON IRON AND STEEL GOODS Liberal Concessions Are Made on Manufactured Articles Intended for the Export Trade. NEW YORK, Nov. 19.—A conference of representatives of nearly all the rail- roads east of the Mississippi River and representatives of the steel industry was held here to-day. It was decided to grant a reduction of 33 1-3 per cent on all iron and steel manufactured goods intended for export. It was dscided that on December 1 there will be a reduction of 33 1-3 per cent on the present domestic rates, to apply to export tariff on finished steel products, Including structural iron plates, beams and rails.

The delegates called on the President formally to announce | to him the opening next Monday even- | ing of their celebration of the two hun- dred and fiftieth anniversary of the | founding of Germantown, Pa., and to| ask him to particicate in it. The Presi- | dent said: “You are right, Mr. Chairman, when‘ | you speak of the stand that the German | element in our citizenship has always taken in all crises of our national life. | In the first place, from the beginning | of our colonial history to this day, the German strain has been constantly in- creasing in importance among the many strains that go to gpake up our com- "posite national character. have to repeat to you the story of the early German {immigration to this | country, the German immigration that | began in a mass toward the end of the | seventeenth century. You are entirely familiar, of course, with the German immigration that went to the formation of Pennsylvania from the beginning. That element was equally strong in the Mohawk Valley in New York; and it was equally strong in Middle and West- ern Maryland. For instance, in the Revolutionary war, one of the distin- guished figures contributed by New York to the cause of independence was | that of the German, Herkimer, whose | fight in the Mohawk Valley represented | one of the turning points in the strug- gle for independence, and one of th New York counties is now named after him.

Tt would have been out of the question to keep Missouri loyal had it not been for the German element there. It was the German portion of the city of St. Louis which formed the core of the Union cause in Missouri. And only little less important was the part played by the Germans in Mary- land and also in Louisville and other portions of Kentucky. “Each body of immigrants, each ele- ment that has thus been added to our national strain, has contributed some- ter; and to no element do we owe more than we owe to that element represent- ed by.those whom I have the honor this day of addressing.” e ek JURY FINDS A VERDICT AGAINST ALLEGED WIDOW | Declares That Lillie Belle Pierce Was Not Married to the Late Colonel Imboden. !

Castro’s crime was as bold as it was extraordinary. On Saturday, October 24, he drove into Martinez with a buggy and passed by the Chatham residence about 5 o’clock in the afternoon. Lit- tle Adelaide was playing in front of the house when Castro accosted the child, inviting her to take a ride with him. At first the little one refused to | 8o, but Castro persisted and at last by promising to buy her a birthday pres- ent persuaded the tot to accompany him. With his innocent companion the burly kidnaper started away. Fortu- | nately a nelghbor noticed the pair and gave the alarm. One hundred of the townspeople responded to the clanging of the fire bell. Castro had driven rapidly and was well out of the town when the searching posse started. Three hours afterward Castro was overtaken on the county road. It was only by the exercise of great seif-con- trol that a lynching was prevented. Cool heads took charge and the prison- er was speedily sent to the County Jail, while the baby was restored to her anx- ious parents. Sheriff Veale has been busy with his prisoner, with the result that Castro to-day made a confession. Young, who has been in jail since Castro's arrest, will be released after his former com- panion’s case has been settled in court. The authorities have found that the kidnaper served two terms in the peni- tentiary at San Quentin, having been last discharged in July, 1901, after com- pleting a two years’ sentence for grand larceny in Santa Barbara County. —_——— LOSS OF HER BEAUTY DRIVES WOMAN TO SUICIDE Inquest in the Case of Mrs. Brannen of Denver Develops Interest- ing Testimony. “ CHICAGO, Nov. 19.—“Suicide while | temporarily insane” was the Coroner’s verdict to-day regarding the death of | Mrs. Lulu W.
