Carr’s connection with the case grew out of the arrest several days ago of Seymour Miller of 1527 Minturn street, who was endeavoring to sell one of the stolen cameras. When arrested he said he had purchased the instrument from Carr. The pawnbroker denied all knowl- edge of the sale, but later admitted he had made it. Church upon being ar- rested confessed he had sold his loot to Carr and that the latter said he would secure him a position in a hard- ware store, where $5 worth of goods could be stolen daily and the proceeds of their sale could be divided between them. Carr will be arrested to-day on charges of receiving stolen goods and failure to make an entry in his books. —_——ee——— Surrenders Herself to Police.

That 'plan has been abandoned and instead | there will only be a humble fence, ! adorned with humbler bleachers and - igrand stand of the same degree of humbleness. The original plan has been abandon- ed for two or three good reasons. First of these is the monumental expense it would involve. To carry it out would cost probably $250.000, and this the As- | | sociated Students, who woulldl have to | foot the bill, would ‘not feel justified | | in spending at this time. Another rea- | son is that the big excavation would ! permanently disfigure the field and prevent anything ever being done with | it in case radical changes are made in | the methods of playing the game.

E L | | Government officials and other wit- nesses that testified before the Federal Grand Jury at Washington in the land fraud case again occupied the day yes- | terday before United States Commis- sioner Heacock. As before, they were called at the instance of defendants, Hyde and Dimond, and questioned by their attorneys to bring out facts con- tradicting the indictment. On cross- examination the Government counscl succeeded in getting on the record some matters leading up to the bribery charge, which they may attempt to| prove later. John H. Fimple, assistant commis- sioner of the General Land Office, was recalled to the stand in the morning for further cross-examination and told in detail of the instructions given forest superintendents, supervisors and other agents of the office relating to the se- lection of lands for withdrawal as for- est reserves. Printed instructions dat- ing-as far back as 1891 were offered in evidence by Francis J. Heney, special counsel for the Government. These documents were objected to by Garret W. McEnerney of counsel for the de- fense as being of too remote a to sustain a conspiracy alleged to have been formed in the year 1901. CHARGES OLD CRIME. a matter of course,” replicd Heney, “the indictment must allege a conspiracy within the last three years in order to come within the statute of limitations, but we shall show that in fact the defendants first began con- spiring to defraud the Government many years before the date set forth in the indictment. Where there is evi- dence of a conspiracy we have the right to show similar acts prior to the crime charged.” The instructions offered were ad- mitted by the Commissioner, as were many other documents of a like char- acter presented later under similar ob- jections from the defense. McEnerney asked that the Govern- ment be ordered to produce all ab- stracts of title and deeds of relinquish- ment covering the selections named in the thirty-four counts of the indict- ment. Heney at once countered with an offer to admit that the relinquish- ments were in proper form, if the se- lector offering the lands to the Govern- ment was actually the owner of those lands. McEnerney, however, was tos shrewd to be caught and he declined the offer, while his associate, Bert Schlesinger, made a formal demand for the original deeds and other papers, saying: ‘“The indictment charges the defendants with giving the Government forged and fraudulent titles. We want light on what we have forged.” But Heney refused to give up the documents and the Commissioner de- clined to grant the order compelling him to do so. Then a variety of ques- tions—the reason for not publishing proposed withdrawals, rules to pre- vent speculators from obtaining ad- vance information of such contemplat- ed reserves, the regulations of the land office making all. information and communications regarding pro- posed reserves private and confiden- tial, and many other matters of like character—were threshed out with the ajd of the assistant commissioner’'s full knowlegde of the subject and his clear, precise statements of law and practice In the Interior Department.

By Sally Sharp. “Sweetly on the soft, spring air the wedding bells are pealing.” The set that hath not within it a bonny Easter bride is a novel organ- and would be condemned as rather stupid. Last night the wedding of winsome Miss FEleanor Eckart and Edward Hume led the nuptial affairs of the week. The ceremony was performed at the home of the bride's parents, 3014 Clay The bride was smartly gowned in a and Miss Mabel Donaldson as maids, all of whom were gowned in green chiffon cloth with white lace. And thus was the wedding distinctly a green and white affair, fitting colors for budding springtime. Covington Pringle, Huett Davenport, Hugh Goodfellow and James Kenna served as ushers, while’ Willilam Hume performed the services of best man. Those at the bride’s table were Wil- liam Hume, Covington Pringle, Huett Davenport, Hugh Goodfellow, James Kenna, Henry Tickner, Miss Clara Tickner, Mrs. B. F. Thomas, Miss Ma- bel Donaldson, Miss Georgie Spieker, Miss Opal Pierce, Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Potter, Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Eckhart Jr., Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Chase, George Chase, Miss L. Wenzelburger and Miss Morse. The young peobple will leave for a post-nuptial trip this morning, the des- tination of which is locked in the breasts of the happy pair—which lit- tle secret it is distinctly their privilege to retain. . . To-night a wedding of note will oc- cur at the residence of Mrs. M. Well- ington, 2038 Baker street, when Miss Catherine L.

SACRAMENTO, April 4—On the or- der of the walking delegate of the Building Trades Cduncil work was stopped to-day on the new St. Paul's Church at Fifteenth and J streets. The men working under Andrew Carlaw, a contractor for masonry, as well as the men employed by Young & Hall, stone- cutters, were called off of the job. The church is being constructed of granite and the work of the masons is necessarily slow, It appears that a la- borer was employed to mix the mortar, only a small quantity of which is need- ed each day. The walking delegate of the Building Trades Council discovered that the mértar mixer was not a union man, and so the masons and stonecut- ters were ordered out. Rev. C. I. Miel, the rector of the is very popular among * all classes of people in Satramento, and when work was begun on his church there was a celebration, in which the Mayor and many citizens took part. Rev. Mr. Miel said to-day the action in calling off the men was without any notice whatever, and he said that had the matter been officially called to his notice or that of his vestry, no doubt it could have been amicably adjusted. Tke church is designed to be one of the handsomest in the State. * H nearest relatives being bidden to wit- ness the ceremony, which will be per- formed by Dr. Guthrie. The bride, who will wear a dainty gown of white mull, with a veil falling from her blonde hair, will be attended by Miss Mattie Wellington, who, too, will wear a white frock. The dainty maid is a niece of the groom, who will be served at the altar by Percy Burr. The young people will visit the south- land on their nuptial {rip, adding to a radiant colony of bridal people. . Mrs. Croudace and her daughter, Miss Croudace, gave an Easter tea yes- terday afternoon from 3 to 6 at their residence, 1831 Vallejo street. The rooms were attractively decorated with Easter lilles and fruit blossoms. More than 200 guests enjoyed Mrs. Crou- dace’s hospitality. Those who assisted in recelving were Mrs. C. E. Cooper, Mrs. S. P. Blumenberg, Mrs. J. J. Auer- bach, Mrs. J. G. Roberts, Mrs. J. Han- sen and Miss Genevieve Gleason. - . To-morrow evening the charming Miss Harris will become the bride of Ernest Albert Stent of New York. & e The wedding of Miss Ethel Kent and Lieutenant Gilbert Allen, U. S. A., will occur to-morrow evening. A pretty bevy of attendants will make the func- tion picturesque, among them being Mrs. Malcolm Graham, matron of hon- or; Miss Kathleen Kent, Miss Mattie Milton, Miss Florence Cole, Miss Louise Hall and Miss Woelle de Golia of Oak- land. Captain Helms of the Nineteenth will serve as best man, the ushers coming from the same regiment, so a pretty pageant they will make as they pro- ceed to the chancel of Grace Church. .
