Four Innocent Men Suffer.


Scottdale, Pa, September 25.-Near-
to the Penitentiary for twelve years
known resident of this place. Their
names were A brabam Coffman, Jacob
Weible, Jacob Saylor, James Dobson,
Joseph Workman and George W..
Coffman. The robbery occurred on
the night of Jan uary IA, 1885, and the
arrests were made the following day.
Their trial soon followed, and they
were all convicted and sentenced as
stated.
1t now appears, if the confession of
Abe COffmann is to be believed, that
four of the men were entirely inno-
cent and have served nearly five
years Imprisonment for the deed
committed by others, who are still
at liberty. In this confession, which
is addressed to Gov. Beaver, Cotf,man
says that Jacob Weible, George
Coffman, Joseph Workman and
Joseph Dobson had nothing
to do with the robbery. 1t was Bill
Killinger, Tim Valentine, Jack Say
lor and himself who committed the
crime. Two of these, Bill Killinger
and TINY alentine, are still at liberty.
Saylor and he watched near the house
of Keck, while Killenger and Valen-
tine entered and robbed the old man.
Coffman says he was under the influ-
ence of liquor, and after the robbery
wanted to leave, but they forced him
to 60 with them. He makes the con-
fession, he says, because the thought
that four innocent men were suffer-
ing for the crime of others has preyed
heavily on his mind and he can not
sleep at night for thinking about
them and their families. He hopes
to be relieved of this heavy burden
by making the statement.
An effort is now being made to
have the four men pardoned, and it is
thought they will soon be released.

The Spartan Virtue of Fortitude
Must be possessed in no ordinary degree by
those who bear the pangs OF rheumatism with
out complaint. We have never heard of such
an individual. But why not, ere the lifelong
martyrdom begins, extinguish the germ of
this atrocious malady with Rostetter's Stom
ach Bitters, the efficacy of which as proven
tive of the disease. as well as a means of re-
lieving it. is well established and amply at
tested, during the last thirty-fve years, over
professional signatures? II expurgates fl ON
the blood those acrid principles which beget
the pain and Inflammation characteristic of
this complaint, which, it should be recollected
is always liable TO terminate life suddenly
when it attacks vital part. The Bitters also
expes the virus of malaria from the system,
remedies dyspepsia, kidney complaint, cen
stipation and biiOvsness, quiets the nerves,
and invigorates the whole physical organ.

Lepers in San Francisco.

Special Dispatch to the Globe Democrat.
SAN FRANCISCO, September pa
Chinese leper was found today on the
plaza with his features and extrem-
tiles partially eaten off. 1t was the
most pronounced case that has been
discovered in this city for some time.
The leper was discovered at 6 o'clock
this morning, but twas after o'clock
in the afternoon before he was carted
away. He was on exhibition at Bren-
ham place all day. Crowds of
people gathered about to view the
horrible sight. Several messages were
sent the health officer before wagon
was sent to remove the man. The
Chinese would have nothing to do
with him. He came from Napa,
where he had been working. He eX-
pected to be taken in charge by his
company, but he was covered with
sores from head to foot, and so could
be of no service, and was turned out,
He was sent to the Pest House, where
there are ten other lepers, white and
Chinese. 1t is known that five lepers
in the last stages of the disease are
secreted in Chinatown by friends.

RIVERA.
The Charming Town by the River
Side is Growing.

The Charming Town by the River
Side is Growing.
J. F. Isbell, of Rivera, says his pretty
town by the river side on the Santa Fe
line is booming. New houses are being
built all the time. and all sorts of i'm
provements being made. WV. CLANCY
is putting up fine house, at cost of
$4,000. The Thompson brothers have
bought several lots, on one of which they
are erecting small cottage, to cost $500 !;
on another they are putting up business
block for stores and rooms. AS soon as
their lease on the premises they now
occupy runs out, they will move into
their own new block. This will cost
81 500. Hamilton West, the livery stable
man, is turning his building around, 80
as to put it in better position. He is
enlarging it to suit the increasing business
of the place. Allen Cam, the saloon
man of Rivera, is building q cosy cottage,
to cost 81 900. The lumber is on the
ground for it. There are three or four
others getting ready to build shortly.
Many new people are coming into
Rivera, looking around for lots to buy.
These would like to rent house for
few weeks, but there is not vacant, one
in the place.
The farmers near Rivera are busy
gathering and shipping their walnut crop.
The prices are N cents for hard shell
and 81a cents for soft shell. There will
be 5000 to 5000 sacks. grown within
radius of three miles from the Santa Fe
depot. These will bring in to the
farmers $50, 900 in good gold coin.
Mr.. Isbell reports the corn crop fine.
The hog crop is also good. For corn,
buyers are offering about 80 cents a
Genital, but the producers are holding for
q better price.
The orange crop this winter will be
smaller than usual. What fruit there
will be will be of excellent size and
quality. Last year the farmers realized
in many instances as high as 5000 and
$500 an acre for their orange crop.

NEWS ABOUT TOWN.
Two Citizens Struck by q
Cable Car.
GOSSIP IN RAILROAD CIRCLES.
The Changes in the Santa Fe-The
Situation. with the Los Angeles
and Pacific.

Yesterday afternoon, about half-past
i've O'Clock, Mr.. j. M. Workman, of
Boyle Heights, met with serious acci-
dent at the intersection of Main and First
streets. While waiting for q cable-car on
which to ride home, Mr.. Workman and
q friend stepped off the sidewalk and
stood upon the up-track, and as the
Boyle Heights Car drew up, neither of
them noticed the approach of the car
coming from the opposite direction, al
though the gripman rang his bell contin-
uously. Before the latter could bring his
train to standstill, the dummy struck
Mr.. Workman in the back and pushed
him along the track for distance of
about ten feet. His friend was also
struck on the leg, but managed to jump
clear of the track. Mr.. Workman was
picked up and carried into Juenger's
drug store, where medical aid was
summoned, and about half an hour
after he was conveyed to his
home at No. 235 Boyle avenue
in the police patrol wagon. DR.. Davisson
was called in, and his injuries, which
consisted of sprained ankle, lacerated
hands and arms, and severe bruises in
the back and ribs, were attended to. At
late hour last night he was reported to
be resting comparatively easily, and no
dangerous results are anticipated. In the
meantime F. @. Waite, the gripman, and
NJ. Davis, the conductor, in charge Of the
cable car which knocked Mr.. Workman
down, called at the Police Station, accom-
panied by several citizens who Witnessed
the accident, but as it was evident that
no blame could be attached to them, they
were not placed under arrest. Mr.. Work
man himself acknowledged that it was
his own fault, and sent message by
telephone to the Chief Of Police REQUEST
ing that if the employees of the cable
company were arrested, they should be
released. 1t is the intention OF Chief
Glass to prevent recurrence of such
accidents, if possible, in the future by
notifying the cable company that their
cars will not be allowed to pass each
other while crossing the principal streets.

be granted the members from the other
wards in which to report. Carried.
The recommendation for sites Nos. 2
and 3, in the First Ward, were approved.
but it was decided to re-advertise for biz 4
for Site No. L.
Mr.. Frew moved that the sites in the
Second ward be re-advertised, and M.
Cox moved to amend that bids be asked
again for all the sites which had NOT
been determined upon. Carried.
The sites recommended in the Sixth
and Seventh wards were then approved.
A discussion followed as to the proper
size OF lot for school purposes and Mr..
Cox introduced motion that the City
Clerk be instructed to advertise for offers
OF land 150 feet square on corners, of 200
feet front with one front, and 15o feet
front on each street if fronting on two
streets. Adopted.
On motion of Mr.. Pomeroy, amended
by Governor Goeper, President Frank.
enfield, Superintendent Friesner and
Mr.. Pomeroy were appointed as an ad.
visory committee on the various sites.
Governor Gosper brought up the ques-
tion as to how soon bids could be asked
for building, and it WAS suggested that
the matter be pushed forward as rapidly
as possible.
MIR. Ellis suggested that, as there were
no sites to purchase, the Council should
advertise for bids for constructing the
additions to the various buildings now
occupied. He thought this would relieve
the pressure somewhat.
Governor Gosper was doubtful whether
the Council should do this, or whether
the Board of Education had the power
to build the additions.
Mr.. Frankenfisld said that if the Board
of Education had the money, it should
go ahead and advertise for bids.
The meeting then adjourned.

THE BIGGEST BLOCK YET.
That Is what Is Proposed for the
Corner of Spring and Third.

Corner of Spring and Third.
One of the show windows on the
west side of Spring street just above Sec
ond, had in view yesterday the drawing
Of an immense brick block proposed for
the northwest corner of Third and Spring
streets. Here the Messrs. Hammel &
Denkvr own two full lots of the original
size, 60x165 feet. or 12Oxl65 for the two.
It is the old Chris. Fluhr residence site
of twenty-five years ago. The building
proposed will be the largest by all means
in the city, and the most handsomely
finished. The famous Bryson-B Bonebrake
block would be small in comparison with
this one. The vacant lot as it stands to-
day is perhaps the very best bit of unim-
proved property in the city.
1t is not at all sure that the two gen.
tlemen who now own the finest block in
this city, that on the corner of Spring
and Second, will not be the ones to put
up the new one to so far eclipse their
own past achievement in the way
of building. Recently a report was
given in one of the dailies of the city to
the effect that John Bryson, ST., had
offered prior to his departure from the
city 5000. 900, or about 81 900 front foot
for the Incompatible property above re-
ferred to, and that the offer was refused.
That of course was wild statement. The
truth of the matter is more nearly like
this: Mr.. Bryson left an offer here of
$120.000, or $1,000 front foot for the
property. He and the owners are now
bargaining at figure running somewhere
along about $140, 900 or $150,000 for the
two lots. If an agreement is reached
on some such basis there is no doubt the
new building will be begun at an early
day.

recently received from the Secretary of
the State Board of Trade. A meeting was
called of the Execu live Committee of that
organization on the 18th of this month.

requested that the committee appointed
to report upon the fruit interests
OF this section be called together

of facts. 1t was the intention of the
State Board to prepare a complete
statement of the present condition
and future possibilities OF fruit
culture in this State. It would be
published in pamphlet form and dis
tributed through the East with the hope
Of inducing immigration

A Broken Ankle.

While on tour of inspection over his
st. Charles hotel property, about Q
O'Clock yesterday morning, Major Sars-
field P. O'Reilly met with a serious &C.
cident, which will prevent his appearance
in public for some time to come. In Or
der to inspect some of the outhouses in
the rear Of the hotel, the Major started
to walk across wooden balcony; but
when about one-third of the distance
some rotten planks gave way beneath
his feet, precipitating him to the ground
below, distance Of some eight feet. As
he fell, the Major grabbed at post, but
missed his hold and dislocated the mid
die finger Of his right hand in the at
tempt to save himself. When picked
lup it was found that Major O'Reilly's
right leg was broken just above the
ankle, and at his own request he was
conveyed to his residence on San Pedro
street, where DR.. Wise set the injured
limb. At a,.late hour last night the suf-
ferer was reported to be resting as easily
as could be expected under the circum-
stances.
