santa Ana Items.

The Santa Ana Valley Fruit Company
forwarded two more carloads of muscat
grapes, from its cold storage rooms en-
route to Chicago, this week. The fruit was
in excellent condition and will bring good
prices
The excavation for the new hotel is max
Ing good progress, a large number of men
and teams being employed. An excellent
quality OF sand for mortar has been discov-
cred in digging this cellar, large quantity
OF which will be utilized.
The Bank of Orange was Incorporated on
the 18th instant, with Messrs. Jesse H. Ar
mold, d. G. PlxleY.- E. f. Spence. d. Halli-
day, N. Palmer and w. s. Bartlett as Direct
ors for the first year. The capital stock Is
100000. A building suitable for the pur-
poses of the new bank is contemplated in
the near future.
Eastern markets from the Santa Ana depot
this week. There were 1852 boxes and
they were shipped by Mcpherson Bros,
Germain & Co. and Scott. Last week the
shipments amounted to sixteen carloads or
15,3G boxes. Here we have total ship
ment in two weeks of thirty-three carloads
or 81 GIG boxes of raisins from the Santa Ana
railroad station. Last week the steamer
Newport carried away seventy tons of rails
lns, or about 1000 boxes, making grand
total in round numbers of 80 900 boxes The
money return, we should judge, must be in
the neighborhood of 10000, to be distribut-
ed In our town and valley. Is it any wonder
we boom?
From an authentic source we have
learned that Santo Ana is to be on the main
line of the great Atchison aud Topeka Rail
road, now building through the Santa Ana
caiion, where thousand men are at work
Ri shts of way and depot grounds will be
asked for and If no obstacles are placed in
the way we may expect to hear the whistle
of the locomotive in ninety days. and see
passengers arriving direct for the east and
leaving here direct. We shall also be on
the line to San Diego. The future of our
town is bright with promise. With the
building of the Newport road. we look to
see Santa Ana become railroad center.

where the silver Goes.

The Bank Commissioners, III their report,
make very curious statement in relation
to silver. They say "the standard silver
dollar seems every day to increase in popu-
larity in our State. The country banks find
the unabated demand for 1t hard to meet.
Most of them receive from $1,000 to $4,000 a
week from the sub Treasury in San Fran
cisco, the expense of the transfer being paid
by the General Government. This rapidly
goes into circulation and disappears, no
one knows where, as It never re-
in their investigation of this matter,
found that it did not return to the city
through the agencies of the country merch-
ants, for they do not pay their bills in San
Francisco In Silver. The explanation of
this fact can be readily conceived. To pay
their debts in silver in this city would in,
volve the expense of expressage. Upon the
whole the commissioners are disposed 40
conclude that the missing dollars remain in
circulation. But 1t is impossible that a
coin should pass from hand to hand with.
out showing up somewhere in the reg
ular Repositories Of money. There
Is, however, not the least mys-
terry about this drain of silver, which must
be enormous. The silver is boarded by
some members Of the community The
the savings banks would certainly receive
some OF 1t. The fact on which the commits
sioners have alighted is, without much
doubt, the Chinese drain. The dollar, go
into the hands of these people. They are
boarded by them until their return to
China. A portion finds its way into China
town in fulfillment of the contracts to labor
by the coolies, but not by the regular com
mercial channels.-lS. F. Bulletin.

THE HsOODLERs.
Progress of the Trial of the
Brtbed Alderman.

NEW YORK, November 20.-Another large
crowd filed the General Sessions Court
room this morning to hear the evidence in
the trial of two Aldermen for accepting
bribes to vote for the Broadway Railroad
franchise. Ex-Alderman Duffy took the
stand after court was opened and lawyer
Newcomb continued his scross-exam1nation.
Duffy acknowledged violating his oath OF
Office when he took the DOODLE. Newcomb
had been very gentle with Duffy up to this
point to gain his confidence. AT this point
be asked the witness to Iehearse his nara
tives OF the several meetings OF the Alder
men. The witness began again his story:
His story was in the main repetition OF
yesterdays in describing the meetings OF
the Booders.
This ended McQuades examination, and
the Court took recess. During recess the
cases OF ex-Aldermen Reilly, O'Neill aud
Cleary were called, and District Attorney
MARITIME moved to fix the dates for their
trials. He then moved separately for. their
trials, fixing Reilly's for the 29th, ONeill's
for December 18th and Cleary's Tor Decem.
ber 27th, Recorder Smyth suggested that
the trials be made consecutively one follow
ing the termination OF tne other This was
agreed o,and notice to that erect was made.
MARITIME had intended to move for the COM
mitment OF the three boodlers, but finding
that the Recorder did not agree, desisted
from his motion. After recess, Gen Tracy
argued that no evidence had been produced
to connect defendant with the charge In the
Indictment. The law demanded that there
must be other evidence besides that OF an
of his argument. and moved to instruct the
jurv to acquit McQuade. The motion was
denied. Gen. Tracy then began the open
ing address to the jury.

VIII ch an effort will be made to adopt some
sort of plan whereby chickering's and quar-.
rels can be avoided and chronic demoraliza-
tion cured. The matter has been frequently
referred to In these columns and the fact
recorded that Pacific Coast traffic by the
reason OF constant disagreement, bad
faith and resulting strife has reached a,
tpoint where 1t is no longer source OF proi
competing lines. the revenue be ing vast
ed in the payment of in nordinate commissions
and extra expenses. There is but one sure
remedy for this state of effairs, and that is
to pool the business, but so many ofhcials
have waxed fat while the road suffered. that
tits doubtful If so radical a measure would
SECURE the necessary support. The

The New Taberoacle ON Hope 5,


Bishop Warren, Elder Farnsworth and
DR.. Bresee, prior to the last session OF
the Conference, after consultation with the
Methodist brethren. deemed 1t very neces-
sary that the denomination should secure
location in the neighborhood of Eighth

and commodious structure for a new
church. The present church accommoda-
tions. especially at Fort street, are wholly
insufficient, and the rapidly growing condf-
tion of the city renders 1t only . matter

western part of the citv Is growing with
marvellous rapidity. aud the denomination

Mr.. Lyttle, s. G.. Hubbell, G. r. Crow, NJ. G.
McKoon and r. NJ. Widney, to purchase the
most available lot, and proceed with the
work as rapidly as practicable. These gen
tlemen at once examined all the property
for sale, and selected and purchased a lot
