AFRAID OF HILL.
Cleveland Not to be BambOozled by His
New York Rival.

Cleveland Not to be BambOozled by His
New York Rival.
[Copyigh, 1883, by the California associated Press.l
New YORK, February 26th.-The Tfjb-
,lne's Albany special says the mutual feel
ing of distrust between Governor Hill and
President Cleveland has been illustrated
since the meeting of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee by visits to Washington
of Judge Alton B. Parker, Judge O'Brien
and E. l.. Ridgeway, the Aqueduct Com
smissioners. They were sent by Hill to
hoodwink Cleveland into the belief that
Hill was not a candidate for the Presi-
dency, and would not therefore oppose
Cleveland's nomination. This was rather
a difficult mission to execute, after HilPs
desperate attempt to take from Cleveland
the Democratic State Committee, and the
ambassadors were received coldly. Col
onel Lamont, the Presidents Secretary, is
said to have told them frankly that Cleve-
land was not in a mood to be bambooZled
any longer by Hill, nor to be lulled into a
feeling of security under cover of which
Hill might steal the New York delegation.
The hostility of the Administration to
Hill was shown also in another way.
Judge Parker is said to have sounded
Cleveland in regard to his support of Hill
for third term for Governor of New York,
and the President is reported to have re-
piled, in freezing tone: That must be
left to the Democratic voters of New York. "
Some Democrats here say Cleveland favors
the nomination of Whitney, Secretary of
the Navy, for Governor.

Double Murder the Result of Contest
Over e Fortune.


CLEVELAND (O), February 26th.-A hor.
rible tragedy was enacted in Ashland
county yesterday. Lewis Cheserown, ST., a
man 76 years of age, q resident of Mohican-
Vile, a little settlement, is estimated TO
have been worth $4,000 OF late years he
has been perfectly helpless, and resided
with his son. All of his property was
decided to his children upon condition that
they would keep him the remainder OF his
life. For a number of years they have
ueen quarreling among themselves over the
d vision.
Recently Lewis Cheserown, Jr., was ap-
pointed guardian of his father. Another
son lives in the same house, and on last
Wednesday both were driven from home
and. in their absence the other sons called
and carried away their aged father. The
abductors were arrested on charges of as
sault and battery, and were bound over TO
appear in Court in the sum of $500 each.
Lewis Cheserown obtained a writ of
habeas corpus, which was given to Con-
stable W. II. Keller to serve. He went to
the house of John Cheserown, where the
old man was confined. Five of the Che
serown boys were in the house, and they
refused to open the doors. Keller got a
posse and forced an entrance. As he crossed
| the threshold he was shot by Elias Cheser-
own, and so badly injured that he died last
night. Keller's deputy, Jacob Helbert,
next fell dead with bullet in his brain.
Elias then Jumped on horse and rode TO
Jail, where he gave himself up. The four
other brothers, Adam, " esley, john and
Joseph, were arrested.

Y0L0 RAISINS.
What Fifty Acres Produces Per Annum
Near Davisville.

Near Davisville.
The Davisville Signal, in speaking of the
possibilities of the lands in the Sacramento
valley, says:
Webster Treat, of the Oak Shade Or
chard, cultivates about fifty acres of Mus
catel laisin grapes. The vines are now
about ten years old. In 1886 this vineyard
yielded 10000 pounds of cured raisins.
This last year he packed 10000 pounds
from the same vines. He packed his en-
tire 1887 crop loose aud realized about 81 40
per box therefor. Mr.. Treat estimates that
the cost of cultivating mature raisin vine
yard, per acre, including picking, curing,
packing and marketing his crop, at about
ten dollars per acre. OF course, this esti-
mate is subject to contingencies, but is as
close to the fact as general statement may
be. Basing calculation upon this state
ment then, we arrive at the conclusion
that Mr.. Treat charges up about $500 ex-
penses against his raisin vineyard per
year.
Taking the two last years together the
total yield was 10000 pounds, or $500
boxes. Supposing he averaged 81 40 per
box, the gross returns for the two years
from this fifty acre vineyard were 81, 700
Deducting 81 600 expenses for two years,
and there remains SO, 700 net profit, an
average net profit of So, $50 per year, or S67
clear gain per acre.
These are not boom " figures, concocted

Death of Henry Knhn

The San Francisco Call yesterday had
the following regarding former Sacra-
mentan Henry Kohn, Receiving Teller
of the United States Sub-Treasury, died
Friday night at his residence, 1716 Sacra-
mento street. The deceased was an active

department, and was given the name OF
Cupid" a title which has clung to his
successors. He was a member of the Iro-
quois Club and of the Masonic Order. Mr.

ering it pneumonia and others asserting
that it was fatty degeneration of the heart
He was native of Bohemia and forty-three
years of age. The burial will take place
this afternoon from the residence of his
sister, Mrs. Franks.

THE LOCAL OPTION ORDINANcE.-The
temperance people are circulating a petit
ton to the Board of Supervisors for the
passage of a local option ordinance closing
all saloons in Yolo county July l, 1888.
The proposed ordinance contains six Sec
tions. 1t fixes the penalty for each and
every violation at fine of not less than
fifty dollars nor more than two hundred
and fifty dollars, or by Imprisonment in
the county jail not less than twenty DAYS
nor more than ninety days. The ordinance
does not apply to wineries, breweries or
drug stores, except that they are forbidden
to sell beer, wine or spirituous liquors in
less quantities than five gallons or to per-
nit the same to be drank on the premises
where sold, under the penalty of the ordi-
nance. Drug stores are permitted to fill
prescriptions for liquor from regular prac-
ticing physicians. The ordinance would
permit the saloons to sell off their stock at
the time the law takes effect in quantities
of not less than five gallons, but forbids
any part of it being drank upon the premi-
ses where obtained.-Dapisrile Signal.

ALMOST HATCHED.
The Ways and Means Committee Said to
Have Finished Its Tariff Bill.

WASHINGTON, February 26th.-The men,
bers of the Ways and Means Committee
has made some radical changes in the bill
now under discussion. The bill is now
almost completed, the only trouble ex-
perienced by the committee being what
disposition to make of the fruit brandy
question, SO as not to antagonize certain
members in the House who are interested.
The maximum reduction proposed is about
$4,000 600, of which $25, 100000 will come
from the repeal of the internal revenue tax
on manufactured tobacco, $40, 100000 from
20 per cent reduction on sugar, $5 000, 600
from additions to the free list and the
balance from a general scaling down of
customs duties on articles embraced in the
various tariff schedules. The committee
still favors S11 on steel rails, 81 so on pig
iron, 90 cents on ore and so cents on
bituminous coal.
RandalPs schedule is somewhat higher,
placing steel rails at $13 and leaves pig iron
at the present rate of Sc 72 ton. He also
proposes an increase in the duty on tin
plate and the retention of the present duty
on coal and iron ore.

THE BELL BOY SALE.
The Princely Price Paid for California
Bred Colt.


fCcpyIght, 1855, blythe California Associated Pressl
WASHINGTON, February 26th-Senator
Stockbridge of Michigan purchased of Sem
ator Stanford one year ago colt called
Bell Boy, which was bred on Stanford s
stock farm at Palo Alto, Cal. The colt was
sired by Electioneer, and its dam was the
celebrated mare Beautiful Bell The price
paid was Sc 600, and Senator Stockbridge
agreed to allow the horse to fill the engage
ments for which he had been entered. He
was then two years old. He won during
last year Sc 500 for his owner, and made a
record of 2:26, which was several seconds
better than any two-year-old colt had ever
made before. Horsemen from all over the
country have been trying to purchase this
colt for some time. Stockbridge left here
for Michigan on Monday, and before leav-
ing he was called upon by gentleman
representing Kentucky parties who offered
him S29 900 for the colt. Stockbridge con-
cluded to consult his partner, Brown, OF
Kalamazoo, before giving a definite an
swer. He saw Brown on Wednesday
morning, and that gentleman refused to
entertain the proposition. The would-be
purchasers were notified. They increased
their offer, and on Thusday sale was
concluded, whereby they pay $50 600 in
cash for Bell Boy, besides his service to the
value of $1,000. The figure is higher than
was ever before paid for three-year- old
colt.

against the Directors of that company
Raymond will ask for the passage of a bill
to make judicial determination of the
