VERDICT FOR DEFENDANT Officers Rider
and Jackson, who have been at San Fran
cisco attending Court as witness in the case
| L .
two days, returned last evening. Burke was
run over by a train two years ago last July
| at the foot of l. street. in this city, and lost a
leg, for which he sued the company for $780,
600 damages, bringing suit In the Seventh
Department of the Superior Court at San
Francisco. The complainant claimed that he
was on fiat car and was pushed off by brake
man, and thus thrown under the train. The
company produced testimony tending to prove
that Burke was intoxicated at the time of the
accident that he was not on the train at all,
and the brakeman who was charged with
pushing him off swore he was in a cabocss
changing his clothes at the time. and did not
see him. At the conclusion of the case, the
jury returned a verdict for defendants.
THE SrRIkERs.-Out of the batch of fif-
teen men sent from San Francisco to take the
place of the strikers at Knights Landing
thirteen of them deserted the steamer at
Colusa, and Glenn again supplied men to
load her. The other grain boat lines are hav-
ing similar trouble with their crews at vari-
Gus points, and are taking on extra sets to
provide against recurrence The proprietors
Of the steamers Ceres, Harriet and Daisy
after much trouble placed Cinnamon at work,
rand thus ended the matter so far as that line
is concerned. Captain Foster is now receiv-
ing applications daily from men who want to
work, and probably when it is ascertained
which of them will really do work when they
can get it. all demands for help will be sup
piled.
WHERE Do THEY PUT THEM ALL? is the
question asked by those who pass the Red
House and see the many dray. loads unloaded
there, and the immense piles OF goods on
every hand, and the steady stream of people
going in and out, well satisfied that they can
! buy more goods for 81 than at any house in
| the city.
THEY ALL SAY IT, and even our competi-
tors admit it, that Hales Criterion is the
most centrally-located dry goods store in Sac
ramento city, and their fast increasing trade
is overwhelming evidence that they are Civ
ing better value for 81 than any other house
in Sacramento.

was left at this office yesterday by Messrs.
Brewer & Co., which for favor, etc, equaled
anything in that line that we have yet tasted.
