WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...JUNE 16, 1883 SUBSCRIPTION. per year, $2. The Railroad Commission is proving a juicy subject for newspaper comment just now. It is quite evident that the Commission is not to be permitted to glide as seriously through their term of office as did their unsavory predecessors. A second antimonopoly meeting was held at Stockton last Saturday, at which Dave Terry, Congressman Budd and others scored the recurrent Commissioners. An old party by the name of Melone, described as a merchant of Stockton, proved to be the clown of the occasion. He said he had a special contract with the railroad company but had no special love for the Corporation, as he had a claim of $400 against it for damages to baggies shipped from St. Louis, which the railroad refuses to pay. Said he: "I haven't any love for the — hommis—you bet your life. I haven’t. They threatened to cancel my special contracts. They can do it and — them." But it is in the meeting room of the Commission itself that the most exciting incidents occur. Denis Kearney appeared before the Board on Monday "as a representative of 200,000 laborers in California," and protested against any reduction of fares and freights on the ground that a reduction of the wages of the 11,000 railroad employees would follow. His speech, which he read from manuscript, was a violent attack upon everybody who had criticized the Commission. It has heretofore been an accepted fact that the railroad managers were shrewd men who always did just the right thing at the right time, but their open and notorious employment of Kearney proves that they can occasionally be guilty of flagrant folly. It is very well known that his speech was prepared for him, and the food admitted it when, in reply to a question by Mr. Foote, he said that the Paymaster of the Central THE ANAHEIM CEMETERY. A Plea for More Vigorous Management. Ed. Gazette:—I had hoped that the letter published in your paper some weeks ago, mildly criticising the cemetery management, would have the effect of calling out a general expression of opinion thereon, but although there are not wanting many people who believe that a change of administration is desirable, they do not seem to know how to bring such a change about. I have no doubt that the present worthy gentlemen who hold the position of Trustees will very willingly resign the office to another Board. It is an office of considerable responsibility and little honor, and to fill it properly requires more time and attention than the members of the present Board can afford to give. There are others, however, who are willing to give some of their time to the proper care of the cemetery, and I propose that a meeting of stockholders be called without delay and a new Board elected. The Anaheim cemetery is capable of being made a spot of beauty. It is laid out tastily; there are numerous handsome and expensive private enclosures, and if the management will but operate with the owners of plots this result will be that the "city of the dead" will be attractive instead of repulsive. Except where owners of plots keep them in order, the cemetery is a barren waste, and its neglected condition is all the more exasperating when it is known that there are funds enough on hand to keep the grounds in fair order. Gophers, squirrels and badgers are allowed to prey undisturbed, when by a judicious use of poison they might be exterminated. Unsightly weeds grow where they eat, graves are depoiled of flowers and plants; the well is used by people who have no business to use it, and in fact there are a hundred matters demanding the attention of the Board of Trustees. I therefore ask that the present Board call a meeting of stockholders, that they render an accounting of their stewardship, and give way to others who have more time and more inch- PACIFIC George Rodger at Nevada City Gen.

Ayers, a Fresno county farmer, helped up serenely and said he appeared before the Board to call attention to a point he had not seen referred to in any of its former deliberations. This was the original construction of the Central and Union Pacific, which, he claimed, had been built out of the people's money. He went over the history of the Contract and Finance Company and the Credit Mobiler, charging that they had been created to defraud the Government. He said he was obliged to pay $8 cents a mile and $7 a ton to ship wheat 200 miles in California, while he could ride for 3 cents a mile and ship wheat from Yankton, D. T., to New York, 1,500 miles, for $7 a ton, over roads that were built by the stockholders and not by the people. The people did not object to allowing the railroad company a fair interest on their money invested. What they did want was a reduction. The speaker charged the Commission with being dilatory and refusing to perform its duty. Mrs Carpenter said the Board was wishing to listen to argument, but did not want to be lectured. It understood its duty. Ayers said he had come here to talk plain to the Board, and proposed to do so. He added, excitedly: "The people of the whole State are demanding a reduction in railroad charges, and they will have it. Why have you men been in office here for six months and not performed this duty?" Mr. Carpenter—I object to such talk as this. Mr. Batiff— Ayers (executedly)—I game here to talk plain to you. This is a free country, and you can't stop me. I came here in behalf of the people you have betrayed. Ayers, at this juncture, put his hand in his pocket, and in a great state of exertion hurried an egg at Carpenter. The Commissioner arose from his seat just in time to avoid the missile, which struck the window casing behind him and spattered all over the room. Galusha Carpenter, son of the Commissioner, who some moments before had observed the actions of Ayers, had taken a seat directly behind him, at the moment the egg was thrown sprang upon his father's assailant and with one blow felled him to the floor. As the exited spectators closed around the fallen anti-monopolist, the Commissioners jumped from their seats. Funds enough on hand to keep the grounds in fair order.

To-day James Nutt was seen practising with a revolver at his home, and this evening about half past seven he was standing near the Postoffice, when Dukes came along.

Dukes started to run when Nutt followed and shot again. By this time Dukes was on the Postoffice steps, when he received another shot and fell inside the door. Nutt followed and tired two more shots into Dukes' prostrate body, one taking effect in the neck. Dukes was dead before any one could get to him.

Humphreys schedule, making an ostensible reduction of passenger rates to four cents a mile, was objected to by Foote who offered a schedule reducing rates to three cents a mile. Mr. Carpenter, with whom deliberation seems to be a mana, wanted time to think and the Commission adjourned to Wednesday to allow him so to do. On Wednesday Carpenter said he had done a lot of thinking and the result of it was that he was strongly in favor of Humphreys' 4-cent schedule. But a postponement of a vote on the matter was had until next Monday, so as to give the Commissioners more time to think. At Abilene, Kansas, a windstorm blew down houses, etc., and killed several persons. Valley Falls and Leavenworth in the same State were also visited by the tornado. Clarendon, Pa., was also demolished. Meagre accounts from Williamson county, Southern Illinois, says a tornado about a quarter of a mile wide crossed the southwestern corner of that county last Saturday night, blew down several houses and seated fences and tore up forest trees in its path. Two boys were killed at New Burnside and a whole family struck by lightning. Most of whom are dying. A whole flock of sheep was blown away and all the peach orchards in the track of the storm uprooted. It is reported that twenty or more people were killed, but of this there is no definite knowledge. The parties all lived in Union-town, Fayette county, of which Dukes and Nutt were prominent citizens, while Miss Nutt was a beautiful and popular belle. Dukes' letter to Nutt, concheth in the most attrocious language, was to the effect that Miss Nutt was notoriously unchaste, and it contained the names of several young men of Union-town who, he said could testify from personal experience to the truth of his assertions. He wrote that the young lady had surrendered herself to him, and gave the details to the father in the most shocking terms. Two or three letters passed between them, and then at the suggestion of Dukes, Captain Nutt called at the former's room in his hotel. The two were alone for a few minutes, when other persons entered the apartment and found them clinched. They were separated, when Dukes drew a pistol and shot Nutt dead. At the subsequent trial Dukes was acquitted, and the indignation of the people was so great that several of the jurors were mobbed, and all were hung in cage. The Legislature refused to permit Dukes to take his seat, and he resigned. The gentlemen alluded to in Dukes' letter all denied the truth of his assertions, and the universal opinion of the people of Union-town was that the young lady was chaste and virtuous. Dukes has ever since been completely ostracized by the people, was disbarred at the unanimous request of the legal fraternity of Union-town, has been stoned in the streets by women, and, up to the hour of his death, slunk through the streets of his native town, hated, despised and dishonored. Archbishop Fabre of Montreal has issued a postoral to the adherents of the church in the province, strongly denouncing all connection with secret societies of any kind. He imposes the penalty of excommunication upon any one uniting with such organizations, and alluded to labor unions in the following stringent terms: "The Synod of Quebec put us on our guard against certain other societies less secret, it is true, but nevertheless more dangerous. On the pretext of protecting the poor working men against capital and the employer who wishes to oppress them, the leaders and organizers of these societies seek to raise and enrich themselves at the expense of the laborers, who are too credulous. They appreciate the beautiful expression of mutual protection and charity only sufficiently to see that by it they can keep their dupes in continuous agitation and foment trouble, disorder and injustice." He then goes on to show that from this teaching of the church it is a very grave sin to become members of secret societies, no matter of what particular denomination they may be. After referring to the evil arising from the example of joining any secret society whatever and to the teaching of the church, he says that anyone leading his fellow man astray, even by example, was guilty of a mortal sin.

Shehan's relatives state that the frequent male dictions of Guiteau during his trial, upon all who should find him guilty have hammed Shehan for months and have lately kept him awake of nights. A local writer suggests the following incidents which have occurred in the way of the fulfillment of Guiteau's curse: The death of District Attorney Corkhill's wife was the first event which could be called a fulfillment of the Guiteau prophecy; Juror Holbbs' wife died; Surgeon D.J.L Phillips, a farmer from Salmao Kan- R.

We cannot call to mind a single case of large farmer selling to some one else a portion of his farm in Colusa county in the last five years. On the other hand, however, not less than fifty small farmers have sold to neighbors with more land, their farms, and have moved to other portions of the State. About two years ago Rev. D. T.

There was no prosecution for the murder. The country is being scoured for the hind. Says a London telegram, Labonchere recently challenged Irving Bishop, the "thought-reader," to tell the number of a bank note known only to Labonchere and Fourth, M.P., the latter to hold the note. Labonchere put up £100 against £100, the proceeds to be devoted to charity. Three thousand persons were present, but owing to disputes concerning the conditions neither Labonchere nor Fourth appeared. However, Bishop guessed the number of the note at the first attempt. He now claims to have won the £1,000. The audience was disorderly. A new feature of the foreign trade in New York is the importation of eggs from Germany, Austria, Italy and Denmark. A leading commission house is receiving them at the rate of several hundred barrels per week and realizes a handsome profit by the transaction. The cost on the other side is about 12 cents per dozen, and they are disposed of to jobbers in this market at an advance of from 3 to 7 cents. Each barrel contains seventy dozen. The freight charges and insurance amount to 50 cents per barrel. The eggs are brought over in refrigerators, and as a rule their quality is excellent; retail dealers not being able to discover any difference between them and the fresh laid eggs of domestic production. The question is asked: now that New York has direct steam communication with the Chinese, who are the greatest poultry raiseers in the world, why not import eggs from China, as was done in the early days of California? Not Guilty. The Star Route jury rendered a verdict of not guilty on Wednesday. They filed into the Court room not apparently worse for their confinement. When they were seated the Judge said "Gentlemen of the jury," the Court has sent for you for the purpose of finding out whether you have any communication to make." The foreman in reply staked that the jury had agreed upon a verdict. Then a painful silence fell upon the Court room, only to be broken by wild shouts of applause when in a clear tone of voice the foreman stated that the jury's verdict was "not guilty." Immediately the decorum belonging to a court of justice was forgotten and cheers resounded from all quarters of the crowded room. Mrs. S.W. Dorsey sprang to her feet, clasping her hands, while tears streamed down her cheeks, and the ladies in the court room were silently weeping. Davidge asked to Chicago June 13—The Tribune's Washington special says: The fact that Michael Sheahan, one of the Guitear jurors, has gone insane has suggested to one of Washington papers that Guitear's prophecy that evil would befall all those connected with his conviction is coming true.

A local writer suggests following incidents which have occurred in the way of the fulfillment of Guitear's curse; The death of District Attorney Corkhill's wife was the first event which could be called a fulfillment of the Guitear prophecy; Juror Holblow's wife died; Surgeon General Barnes, an important witness; Dies Judge Porter's health is said to be wrecked Marshal Henry; Railfist Stall; Detective M.Erich; Jailwagu Guard Perry Carson at the driver of jail wagon; James Learn were dismissed from service; Dr Noble Young; an important expert witness; Dr Rev.Dr.Hicks has been labeled; Dr Graver another expert; was shot at in the Urk Asylum; Dr McDonald has been the subject of investigation in connection with his administration of Ward's Island, N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney's removal from N.Y.; Officer Pat Kearney'S removaion of large farmer selling to some one else a portion of his farm in Colusa county in last five years.

Descormiers cut the throat of her 11 day old baby, killing it, and then cut her own throat. She may recover. She used her husband's razor. The deed was undoubtedly committed while she was laboring under a temporary fit of insanity. The Street Railroad Company at Sacramento has established an inflexible rule for the conductors, by which they are required, on pain of dismissal, to give out tickets and no change to persons offering them twenty-five cents or over in payment for fare. Attorney General Marshall refused to accept the tickets and demanded the change. He was thereupon violently evicted from the car. He declares his intention of testing the matter in the Courts. John Tucker, Superintendent of one of the large sugar plantations near Hilo, Hawaiian Islands, is on his way to Jamaica in behalf of Hawaiian sugar planters. The sugar plantations at the Islands are overrun with rats, which eat the growing cane and cause great loss. How the pests can be got rid of has been a problem of constantly increasing importance. Recently the project of introducing the mongoose has been agitated, and Mr. Tucker has been commissioned to proceed to Jamaica, where the mongoose is of great service, and procure fifty pairs for transportation to the Islands. At Osceola, Nevada, R. C. O'Neil, a prominent rancher, was shot and killed by a mob of ranchers. O'Neil and his two sons were generally suspected of having wavlaid and shot William Bassett about a month ago. They denied the charge, but in order to have the matter judicially investigated they gave themselves up to a Justice of the Peace at Osceola. There being no jail there, they were allowed to go on their own recognition, and were attacked by the mob and the father killed. The sons were armed and attempted to defend themselves, but both were badly wounded. Near Lafayette, Yamhill county, Oregon, Rev. L. T. Nicholls was shot in a melee growing out of a difficulty with the family of a widow named Martin. Mrs. Martin, who is well advanced in years, appears to have been much under the influence of Nicholls, and not of very sound mind. Two of her sons, both grown men, went to the church to attend a meeting presided over by Nicholls, and to take their mother home. There was some interference, and as fight ensued. Several men were knocked down, and Nicholls was shot during the row. He was shot through the body, and the wound is supposed to be dangerous. —Receipt books, order books, etc., printed on heavy paper and bound in substantial form, are kept in stock at the Gazette Job Office. BOZEMAN, M. T., June 13. —The investigation against Judge Conger, brother of Senator Conger, by a special Commission before Chief Justice Shannon of Dakota, at the instance of Attorney General Brewster, began here last Tuesday morning, Judge Blake and Colonel W. T. Sander appearing for the plaintiff and Colonel Calaway, assisted by Judge Conger himself, acting for the defense. The investigation has progressed slowly. The charges against Judge Conger are many, but we can only give them in general. The principal ones are that he is incompetent, grossly intemperate, neglectful and attentive to the duties pertaining to his office, partial in his decisions, having lost the confidence of the people of his judicial district, and that his associates from the time he came into the Territory have been always of a very low class. It is also charged that he has from time to time been drunk or asleep on the bench and that he has openly and freely gambled in public and spent most of his leisure time at saloons and dens of iniquity. Four days have been occupied in examining witnesses, but so far few have been examined and the prospects are that the investigation will be lengthy one. The testimony of the prosecution, as given by attorneys, business men and artisans of high standing, is to the effect that Conger has been addicted to intemperance and excesses, both in public and private, coming on the bench time after time in a state of intoxication. The stories of his debancheries are so startling that Judge Blake was heard to remark that he was perfectly disgusted at the CASH BARGAINS AT THE DRY GOODS PALACE.

THE GREAT STORM Of January 12th, 1882, which injured or destroyed several of Wardmills in Los Angeles County proved conclusively that the California Windmill is the only one that can stand, uninjured, a heavy sale. Although some I nearly every other manufacturer was destroyed, so far as known every one of the California Mills put up by the undersigned escaped injury. These Mills are so strongly made and so perfectly self-regulating that, when properly put up, it is almost impossible for a storm to injure them. It is also superior to other Mills in having an ADJUSTABLE STROKE (4 different lengths) in the case and modifies stress of its work, in the beauty fit design and finish and in the marvelously low price at which it is sold. I will furnish these Mills with Pumps and Tanks and set them up in complete running order at the lowest possible rates. For further particulars call upon or address. S. H.
