tbs STORM.

The following regarding the storm is fur
nished by Sergeant Bsrwick, of the Signal
Service: Tie pres.at storm made its ap-
pearance several days ago at San Diego and
Los Angeles, by the state of the weather at
those points, it being cloudy, with occasional
sprinkles of rain, while the weather north of
Los Angeles and Visalia was perfectly clear
And the continued north winds which we
have had for some time past showed that
there must have been severe atmospheric
disturbance somewhere to the south aud west
of US, probably far out at sea, but near
enough to make its storm producing influence
felt at San DIEGO and Los Angeles; and as ~
approached the coast its southeast quadrant
must have baen mere severely felt on line
running in northeasterly direction from Los
Angeles, IS ths HEAVIEST rainfall was at Los
Angeles, Visaha and SACRAMENTO. At Los
Angeles there was a total for the storm of
LA inches, measured, which must have fallen
in less than twelve hours. At Vlsaiia 81 of
an inch, and GO OF an inch at Sacramento.
At other points the total for the storm was
extremely light. Fer instance, at San Fran
cisco it was only 05 of an inch, Red Bluff
only .04 OF an inch, north of which point
there was none while at San Diego there was
4 Is Of an inch during the storm Now this
few weeks ago. that blockaded the railroad on
the mountains, the cause of which was I'M
dOubtedly the slew rate ct which that storm
travelled acEosa the State; and also by, an
other storm coming in from the nerth, /aId
travelling nlor5 rapidly, it made a connection
with that storm IN the mountains, causing the
heavy amount Of snowfall, the melting OF
which few days ago blockaded the railroad
on the east side of the Nevada mountains.

a storm that might come IN from the north
west.

the contribution Of the Storm. At Stockton

POLICE INSTRUCTIONS. -The following in
structious TO the police force were vests rday
Issued by Chief K ercher: want the officers
to pay particular attention to the following
among other laws and ordinances, to wit: To
strictly enforce the laws relating to gambling
houses. Require all women in houses of
prostitution or il-fame TO keep within proper
bounds aad remain inside of their houses and
away from the windows and doors thereof
Tbey have ell hal notice. therefore they can
not excuse themselves upon the plea Of igno-
rance Of the law. The ordinance in regard to
the obstruction % sidewalks must be more
strictly enforced also the ordinance relating
TO ki,e-flying and bal-playing in the public
streets, as many complaints have been made
concerning violations of said ordinances, and
such amusements in the streets often brighten
passing teams, ard sre dangerous to passers-
by. l intend to call the attention of the
Board Of Trustees TO the fact that in my opin-
ion it would be advisable to provide some
--.--e k.,h a 7aaA ff,ax
men as r recreation ground. All officers are
requested to at once notify all Migrants, idle
and dissolute persons, dangerous and suspi
cious characters, tramps etc, that unless
they leave the city they will be arrested and
prosecuted as Migrants.
