To Paris by Rail.

The Russian government proposes to
build the longest railroad in the world.
1t will extend from st. Petersburg to the
Pacific ocean, assistance of 1000 miles.
About one-fourth of the line has already
been constructed. 1t has been suggested
that a road be built up the alaska coast
to meet it, and that Behring ttraits be
bridgsd by msans of the many islands it
contains. Stranger things have hap
pened, and we may yet go from New
Ncrat.

Watts, who murdered Express Messenger
Nichols, together with all the papers in
the case laid before Governor Oglesby,
have been presented to Governor Fifer,
Governor Oglesby reviewed the case
and the Sth of last January refused te
grant the pardon. 1t is claimed that
Watts has consumption and that he
cannot long survive, even if he is re
leased from confinement, and the object
of asking for a pardon is to enable hiE

ments wired from Hartford this morn
ing that the Connecticut Mutual man
ayers had placed all the facts pertaining
to Moore's ~defalcation in the hands Of
the Indianapolis prosecuting authorities,
and that the responsibility for delay in
acting upon the case rested here, are de,
MED in toto by Major Mitchell, prose-
cutor for this district, and Judge Clay
pool, acting United States district ut,
torney. They say that not one word has
eve been said to them by representa-.
tives of the company which would lead
them to believe that it was the desire OF
the company to prosecute Moore. They
also say that there need have been nc
delay in the prosecution, as information
could have been lodged at any time, and
that there wa nc lack of means in get,
ting at the business If any of the Hart,
ford officers would but have made the
start.

A Chinaman's Pan to Get 1t Free
Fails.
Every once in q while the Zanjero
finds someone stealing Yater from the
zanjas, and in most cases the thieves are
Cinnamon who grow vegetables near the
suburbs. For some time past Mr.. Dali
ton has been wondering where ditch
that was connected with a zanja in the
city limits ran to, but as it extended be-
yond his Jurisdiction he did not investi-
gate further. The Zanjero Of the district
just outside Of the city limits noticed
that the Chinaman had plenty of water
and that he received it from ditch lead
ing from the city. Surmising that all
was not as it should be he held q con-
suitation with Mr.. Dalton and the result
was that they came to the conclusion
that the Chinaman was stealing water
inside the city and using it on outside
lands. The services of the City Attorney
were called in and warrant for the
Chinaman's arrest was issued.

THE FAIR.
An Interesting Programme for Te-
day.

An Interesting Programme for To.
day.
There was an increased attendance at
the Downey Fair yesterday. The roads
had dried and the farmers from all
around drove over with stock and farm
produce, and by noon the pavilion was
filled with exhibits of every sort. The
trains from Los Angeles, Santa Ana,
Anaheim and Whittier also carried a
large number of people to Downey and
it began to appear as if the success that
was hoped for would be attained. The
fact that a special train had been OBJ
tanned to run from Downey back to Los
Angeles at 4:15 p. m. drew more visitors
from here than on the previous day.
The major portion of the morn
ing was spent by the visitors
in wandering about the grounds
inspecting the animals and in looking
at the many varieties of fruit and
vegetables displayed on the various
tables. The apples exhibited by w. G..
McGaugh, E. p. Dinsmuke, E. L. Bar
nett, James Root. II. Hood and James
Stewart attracted considerable attention,
as also did the several varieties of bsets
grown by L. Lane, J. H. Cooke and
others. A specimen of eucalyptus six
teen months old and over twenty feet
high was also an object of interest.
The ladies Of the w. G. 7. U. had
been given the privilege Of running the
ice cream booth, and they did q large
business. A piano firm had large dis
play Of instruments in the center Of the
building, and the music furnished by
the agent formed q great attraction for
the young ladies in attendance.
The dry weather had the effect of
placing the grounds and track in better
shape, and it was not 80 difficult to get
to the stalls where the exhibits of stock
were to be found. A number of fine
animals were in the stalls and they were
the center of attraction for good many
visitors. There we're also to be found in
the grounds various exhibits of machin.
cry for farming purposes and other arti.
cles too large for the building.
The programme today will be very in
teresting. All the races which were to
have taken place on Tuesday will be in
cluded in the events of today. and in
addition there will be exhibitions o.
roadsters and colts, ladies' exhibition
riding, trotting race, 3.minute class
and slow race. The baby show will
take place tomorrow morning at Il
o'clock

sale dealers in the city had large trade
in the Territories in liquors which are
only put up in bottles, and that to pro-
hibit them from selling anything less
than gallon would curtail their business
and handicap them. Mr.. Lindley, how
ever said that it would be q hardship upon
the retailers, who paid $50 more than
Kiefer & Co., to allow them to sell bot
tied liquors without retail license.
The board then adjourned.

VIndieation Of .he State.


Tue final report OF the Grand
Jury made to Judge Mari, yester-
day on the late treasury robbefies
contains the following noteworthy
paragraph:
la dismlssing this matter we
congratulate the citizens of the
state, that, after the NEST far
reaching and palnstaking inquiry,
we have failed utterly to discover
any evidence tending to substan-
tlate the rashly expressed theory
! that there was conclusion between
! the Treasurer and his felloW-otii-
GERS. The credit Of the state is
unimpaired-in fact state consols
have appreciated materially since
our special report-and the honor
and the honor OF eur state officials
is untarnished, animpeachable.
This conclusion of the Grand
Jury, composed as it was from the
ranks Of the best classes of our
community, and Of Republicans
and Democrats, is extremely graft
flying to the people of Louisiana,
while 1t is q singing rebuke to
those unprincipled partisan sheets
whose arguments are defamation
and whose rhetrOic is blackguard
ism, and which have attempted to
make the stealings Of Burke the
occasion to besmirch the charac-
ter of our people and state. There
were, whom the late treasurer's gi-t
gantiC scheme of robbery was first
brought to light, some men who
were anxious to asperse the char
acter Of every man who had any
political association withthe Grim
inal. But 1t was so clear that he
alone was the culprit that these
little slanders were speedily sill
enced. The Grand, Jury's report
is as thorough vindlcation of all
the state officials, except the late
treasurer, Of the late administers
tion, as 1t is terrible and final con
demnation Of the real swindler--
