The De Young Tragedy Coroner's Inquest.
SAN FRANCIsoo, April 27th.-The inquest
in the De Young case commenced to-day
The inquiry was confined to circumstances
Immediately connected with the murder.
with the reports heretofore telegraphed.
SECOND DISPATCH1
SAN Francisco, April 27th.-The inquest
IN the De Young case was concluded this
evening All the evidence taken was sub
stantially the same as the reports heretofore
telegraphed, with one exception. A man
giving his name as Clemetshaw testified that
at the time of the shooting he was looking
through the window of the Chronicle count
iug-room, and saw Kalloch and De Young
facing each other, the latter leaning against
the counter. Directly De Young straight
pocket, and fired at Kalloch. The latter
then drew and began firing, when De Young
ran. The remainder of his evidence was in
accordance with the other testimony. The
fact that Clementshaw had previously en-
deavored to obtain permission to view
the body of deceased, bringing a note
to the Coroner from the Sheriff's Office.
in which he was introduced as Mr.. Watson,
tended to discredit his testimony, and the
direct evidence of other eyewitness, and
the fact that De Young's pistol was found
not to have been discharged, decided the
jury to attach no weight to his testimony,
and after brief elaboration they returned
a verdict charging Kalloch with murder.
Clemetshaw explained his change of name by
stating that he had adopted the name of
Watson as matter of convenience, his true
name being difficult to pronounce.

Execution at Winnemucca-CharIe Yves
ley Hymer Hanged for Murder.

WINNEMUCCA, April 27th.-To-day was the
time fixed for the execution of Charles Yves
ley Hymer, who murdered L. K. West in
Paradise on the 9TH of May, 1879. As early
as o'clock knots of men were observed
standing about the Courthouse, evidently
discussing the terrible affair, and much more
sympathy seemed to be expressed for the con-
demned man than at any time since the COM
mission of the crime. The doomed man
throughout showed great fortitude, walking
to the scaffold with firm step. At the APP
pointed time the Sheriff sprung the trap, and
the soul of the murderer was launched into
eternity with scarcely struggle.

Rio VISTA, April 27th-The river is still
rising slowly. No serious break is yet re-
ported in the levees, but the water is said to
be running over them in places. Squads of
men are constantly at work strengthening
these points, and there is still hope that a
further calamity will be averted. The latest
advlces from the tules ON the Toland tract,
which was this morning reported to be
flooded, say that the levee is still whole, but
enough water has run over it 10 cover a con-
siderable portion of the tract No great harm
will result from this, if nothing worse occurs.
The weather is discouragingly warm, though
fortunately there is no wind.

The Recent stOrm-Its Operation at sierra
City.

SIERRA CITY, April 23d.-The most terrible
storm ever known in this place has apparently
just come to close. 1t began April 18th,
and there has been scarcely CLEAN of sun
shine till this morning, but, with the excep-
ton of a very little rain, it has showed almost
continuously night and day, and sometimes
very fast, fully seven feet having fallen here,
and at the lowest reasonable estimate not less
than ten or twelve feet on the summit. The
snow has been very soft, it being just cold
enough to snow. Your reporter has repeat
edly taken a pan heaped with snow which
sometimes when melted would more than fill
the pan with water. There have been MANY
snow slides, some of them doing considerable
damage.
Isaac Martinetti, dry goods merchant of
this city, had five arastras swept away by an
avalanche, doing several thousands of dollars
damage.
About five miles down the river, at place
called Charcoal, some Italians have a ranch.
and on the Dist instant, having few minutes
warning, they had barely time to leave the
house when slide came, carrying the house
and its contents into the river, and raising
the stream 10 or 20 feet till it cut its way
through deep mass of snow
Not more than half mile further down
the liver the catastrophe was literally re-
peated, where Frenchman, miner, in like
manner just barely had time to get out of the
track of the huge mass of snow that came
rushing down the mountain and carried his
house, with its contents, into the torrent, a
total wreck.
1t is said the river was so effectually
damned that the water was raised 20 feet,
and it was several hours before the water cut
passage through.
A water ditch and fiume on the south side
of the river has encountered several slides,
and is undoubtedly somewhat damaged, but
to what extent cannot be known for some
time to come. In some places it is 80 feet
under the snow,

Charges of heresy are frequently brought
nowadays in orthodox churches against

theological argument without very salts

An Episcopal divine of New Orleans, Rev.
