YUMA, Ariz., Oct. 3.--Last night
messenger from Chimney Peak,
thirty miles distant, came down
for physician, and reported Sc
rious if not fatal accident as hav-
ing occurred to Mr.. David Neahr, a
prominent merchant of this place
and owner of the PicachO gold

Mr. Neahr was hauling heavy tim
ber in cart from the bottom of
the hill up to his mill site, and had
reached the top. stopping mo.
ment to rest the animal, when 1t
suddenly swung around and, ran
down the hill. The shafts of the
cart knocked Mr.. Neahr down, and
the loaded cart passed diagonally
across his body.

Judge Sepulveda has issued writ
of certiori manding Justice
Carlton to forward to his court in
Los Angeles, on Tuesday next, all
the papers in the case which led to
the locking up of Austin Brown
for contempt of Justice CarltOn's
court. The history of this case is
that just previous to the COM
mencement of the trial of the al
legged Moore murderers, Aus
tin Brown, an important witness
for the prosecution, sold to one
Willoughby, friend of the Mores,
his place on the Sespe, which the
Assessor testified on the murder
trial was worth four hundred dol
lars, for two thousand dollars, TAX
ing his note therefor. The pur-
chaser, according TO Browns testi-
mony on the stand, never saw the
farm, to his knowledge. Messrs.
DAILY & Rogers, to whom Brown is
indebted about six hundred dol
lars, undertook to attach or garni-
shee these notes, whereupon
Brown, without saying that
he had parted with the notes,
for u consideration, declares
that he cannot produce them. On
this showing Justice Carlton locke ed
him up for contempt of { ourt. A.
d. Barnard, to whose possession
the documents were traced, swears
that they were lost while in trans

VALLEJO, CAL, Oct. ga cor
respondent of the Vallejo Chroni-
Gle, writing from MidGletown, Lake
county, gives intelligence of the
killing at that place of Charles
Bates, an engineer employed at the
Napa Consolidated quicksilver
mine, by Thomas Dye OH the after
noon of the lst instant. The ac-
count represents the killing as a
deliberate murder. The two were
strangers to each other. They had
had an alteration short time be
fore the shooting, but parted, meet
ing casually again in front OF the
Lake County House. Dye i'm
mediately and without words
pulled his revolver and
tired. The ball entered Bates's
breast aud passed through his body.
He fingered for four hours and
then died. The deceased was
native of New York, and twenty
six years old. What added TO the
tragedy was the fact that he had
come to town with his wife to at
tend the marriage Of his sister, and
the nuptials had been celebrated
but a few minutes before his MUIR
der. Dye was under the influence
of liquor. He was imm ediately ar
rested. and at the time of the cor
respondents writing was surround.

from being lynched by the excited

SACRAMENTO, Oct. 3.-The Nom
Partisan caucus adjourned at mid
night last night. During the ses
sion Waters, Brown and several
others withdrew, being pledged to
candidates. There were 72 dele
gates present. Candidates were
nominated for various positions,
and on each ballot the candidate
receiving the lowest number of
votes was dropped. The following
nominations were agreed upon and
will receive the votes of delegates
present: President, pro tenn, Isaac
Belcher; Assistant Clerks, Geo. A.
Thornton and e. F. Smith ;
Minute Clerk, f. l.. Crawford:
Journal Clerk, G. e. McStay, of
Stockton; Sergeant at. Arms, r. J.
Sherwood; Assistant Sergeant-at.
Arms, Ben Chambers. The Work
ingmen's delegates also held a Sc.
cret caucus until after midnight
awaiting the result of the Non.
Partisan caucus. Information ol
Boruck's speech was conveyed to
them and they were highly in
censed. Beerstecher and Barbour
and possibly others will speak to
questions of privilege tomorrow,
In response to the charge that they
are communists. There is like
lihood of lively times tomorrow.
1t is said that the Convention will
adjourn Friday until Monday. The
Non-Partisan caucus was designed
to create change In the position
of Secretary, who caused general
dissatisfaction yesterday by his
slow. reading, but nothing was
done. Dobbins, a young man who
has acted as Assistant Secretary,
was defeated because of a squabble
with the Secretary yesterday.
