A, Nurse, engineer of the State Depart- ment of Public Works, today returned | from a visit to Capay Valley, where he was present during the excitement which followed the landslide into the channel of Cacahe Creek, at a point Theresa ghout fiftéén miles above Capay Val- ley. He said a slide of several acres occurred, forming a water-tight dam 100 feet high. This held back a con- siderable volume of water, but Nurn‘ says there was at no time danger to. the valley, and that the reports of the damage done were greatly exaggen ated. e —— s Soldler Creates Disturbance. ¥Frank Johnson, a member of Com- pany H, First Regiment National Quard, was drunk and raising a dis- turbance at Turk and Fillmore streots on Monday night, and was placed un- der arrest by Policeman M.

Known Promoter and Politician of Los Angeles. 4 — Claim That L. H. Wheeler Sold Shares in Company by Making False Pretenses. i SACRAMENTO, May 8.—An agent of the Btate of Pennsylvania arrived in this ecity this morning and called at the Governor’s otuce to request requisi- tion papers for a prominent mining men and well-known politician of Los Angeles named L. H. Wheeler, who is charged wilh obtaining money through false pretenses, there being about a hundred counts against him. It appears that agents of Wheeler sold some $75,000 worth of mining, stock in the city of Philadelphia, the | stock purporting to be of the San Joaquin Mining Company. This was done in 1908, and 1t is claimed that the | agents represented that the ore in the | mine was free milling with over a oseph | million dollars’ worth exposed and blocked out. It is now claimed that ' the stock was sold on false representa- tions, as no such amount of pay ore was in sight. Wheeler has communicated with the Governor and has demanded an exam- iination befors him before any papers for his return to Penngylvania are considered. He clalms that when the stock was sold he was not in the Btate of Pennsylvania, and in conse- quence holds that the papers are not re- | operative on that account alone. ————— SITUATION IN THE LOCAL MARKETS IS GRATIFYING Leading Interests Are Enlarging Their Scope and Prices Are Becoming More Definitely Established. The situation in the local grain and produce markets, while showing no material change from the previous re- 18 of a most gratifying nature. The leading interests are gradually enlarging their scope of operations and prices are becoming more definitely established as the work of rehabilita- tion proceeds. Oats are still In short supply and 1ruh very firm at the recently estab- lished quotations, while barley is rel- atlvely weaker than the other cereals, owing to the shutting off of the de- mand from the brewWers, which result- ed in large lines of brewing stock be- K. [ing thrown on the market to be sold for feed. New arrivals of hay and feedstuffs are finding a ready outlet in local dis- tributing channels, and the stocks of hay in the unburned warehouses are three cars and yesterday two cars ,came 1in, the largest arrivals since the fAire. Bean handlers report a continued brisk demand for mixed carloads from outside points, and several cars are leaving daily for points in the South- west and the North. ‘Large whites, Limas and blackeyes are doing better, and someé other descriptions have an upward tendency. Trade in dairy produce is of good proportions, Local retallers are tak- ing liberal quantities of all lines, and the prevalling low prices of butter and Y | cheese are stimulating the shipping de- jmand. A few heavy recelvers of but- ter are obliged to resort to storing to keep down the surplus, but the major- ity of the trade experience little diffi- eulty in disposing of consignments in the regular channels. fruits as can be eaten fresh, but there is practically no call for varieties that require ecooking, such as gooseberries an dearly blackberries.

This permis- sion has been so much abused by con- tractors and jobbers in asking men to work at regular wdges while the con- | tractors were getting double price, and in asking them to work on new work in a way contrary to trade rules, that the district councll, at & largely attend- ed meeting Monday evening at its hall, 1065 Clay street, adopted the following: “Moved and seconded that comtract- ors be notified tlirough the dally papers that the carpenters’ trade rules be| striotly enforced hereafter, “C.

Coroner, on Other Hand, Is Positive That Fatal Wound Was Not Self-Inflicted. Inquiry Fails to Reveal Any Evidence | Supporting Story of a Dusl With Burglare. NEW YORK, May 8.—Police officials who have been investigaiing the mys- terious death of Charles L. Spier, con- fidential agent of H. H. Rogers, who | was found dead in his home in Statea | Island yesterday, said to-day that the evidence indicated that Spier had com- mitted suicide. Mrs. Spier had in- formed the police that Spier left his bed chamber to go to the dining-room in search of burglars and that she heard shots. Except that the things in the dining-room, in which the body was found, were wsarranged, the po- lice say that there is nothing about the house to indicate the presence of a burglar. One door was found un- locked, but without signs of having been forced, and an active bulldog which accompanied Spier to the din- ing room took no part in the reported duel with & burglar, if there was one. On the other hand, the police have ascertained that one month before his death Spler had insured his life for $76,000 and had been obliged to dis- count a note for $1287 to pay the prem- fum on one of the policies when it became payable last Saturday. The policles were payable regardless of the cause of death, and the beneficlary had been changed from Mrs. Spler to a trustee of his estate. The police have discovered that a judgment in bankruptey for $50,870 had been outstanding against Spler and others since February last. These Judgments were entered after the Yet- man Transmitting Typewritgr Com- rany, of which Spier was president, went into bankruptcy. Coroner Matthew Cahill sald to-day that he is positive the wound which caused Spler's death could not have been Inflicted by himself and that Spier was undoubtedly murdered. ———— FRENCH FELONS SAIL A LONG DISTANCE ON A SMALL RAFT VICTORIA, B.
