LOCAL INTELLIGENCE,

was brought up from San Francisco last
Saturday on a warrant sworn out by All
Tuen accusing her of grand larceny, was
called in Justice Henley's Court yesterday
afternoon, she failed to appear, as any one
familiar with the Chinese methods of kid
MAPPING by aid of the law, and who read the
account of the matter published in yester-
days RECORD UNION, might have expected.
1t is reported that she is now in Nevada
City. Judge Henley continued the case
until l P. n. to-day, and announced that he
would issue all attachment for her, and one
for All Tuen, who swOre to the warrant
upon which she was arrested, and who had
also neglected To be present. The woman's
bail bond was declared forfeited, but it
probably is not worth the paper it is writ
ten upon. The case is not an unusual one,
except in regard to a few details. All over
the State Cinnamon practice shrewd de-
vices to steal women from one another
using the Courts, as in this instance, or run
ming them away and having them married
under the law of the State, only to place
them in houses of prostitution afterwards,
though there are some instances in which
Celestials steal, marry and keep them as
wives. Charles T. Jones SAYS that his
knowledge Of the case and connection with
it were slight, a ChilIaman having called
upon him Saturday, after the arrival of the
train from San Francisco, and requested
him 10 appear on behalf of a ChinaWoman
who had been brought up from the Bay,
and who was represented by the Chinaman
to have probably been stolen.

at the meeting We're 1894 %, which, when
paid will leave a balance of only $16S 06 in
the treasury for a working fund, and will
compel an immediate reduction of the dis
peusations The number of persons out of
work the last winter has caused more APP
plications for aid than could satisfactorily
be met, but the liberal donations (other
than cash made by our citizens has en-
ablcd the Association to distribute within
ing, beside many pieces of bedding, furni-
ture, etc, of the estimated value of $500 40,
