A Sensational Sereed.


The following note, written on a piece
OF mud stained and crumpled paper that
looked as if it had been exposed to the
weather or had been soaked in dirty
water, was found on the hill above the
Catholic Cemetery and handed to officer
Mcmahon, of the city police, yesterday.
1t was written in fair business hand,
and showed little evidence of the
tremor that one would naturally expect
to find in a screed indited by a man
suffering from gunshot wound. The
statement made may be true, but judg-
ing from the steadiness of the hand.
writing, we are inclined to believe that
the note was written by "crank " or
some one desirous of creating sensa.
tion. Here it is:

yesterday. A heavy seabreeze prevailed
nearly all day and carried. vast masses of
vapor against the mountains, where il
encountered the chill Of the snow on the
submits and in the cahons, and formed
thick clouds that cent down heavy and
repeated showers along the base of the
mountains and across the valley of San
Bernardino. Rain fell also out on the
plains as far as Pomona, Ontario and
Cotton. The barometer was lower yes

By the clearances of the San Francisco

Of BREAD, value $780," Why this lavish
waste of bread is mystery to Califor-
mans. The disproportion between 400
pouads of bread and 400, 900 cartridges
is most inexplicable, and excites remark.
People naturally inquire why the ship
per didn't put on 100. 900 more cartridges
and take off 1916 pounds of that bread ?
There is a base suspicion that this ex-
traordinary shipment Of bread was made
to put up the price Of -four and wheat.
