M'CUDDEN INDICTED.
Two Bills Presented Against Him by the
Eederal GRIND Jury.

Two Bills Presented Against Hin, by the
Federal Grand Jury.
James McCudden, the Vallejo contractor,
who for years has been furnishing the
navy-yard at Mare Island with coal and other
supplies, was yesterday indicted by the
United States Grand Jury for having pre-
scented false, fictitious and fraudulent claims
to the Naval Department OF the United
States for payment.
There were two indictments returned by
the Grand Jury. One charges McCudden
with having presented a claim for payment
for 100 tons of Wellington coal at $40 95 per
ton, on September IA, 1889, to w. Colds
borough, PaymaSter, stationed in this city.
This claim had been approved by A. K. X.
Benham, Commandant to whom it was pre-
scented by McCudden, and his false state
ments to Commandant Benham constitute
the second count of the indictment. The in
dictment states that this consignment OF
coal fell short of the amount for which pay
ment was claimed by ten tons.
The second Indictment is in form and
wording the same as the other, but it stated
that the claim presented by McCudden was
for 200 tons of broken anthracite ut $40 40
per ton, and that the consignment fell short
of the required 200 tons by 80. This claim
was presented for payment on April q,
1889. and the acquisitions for the coal were
made out by the Bureau of Equipments and
Recruiting of the United States, and were
numbered 81 and 70 respectively.
McCudden was placed in custody imme-
diately by the United States Marshal The
bonds on each indictment were placed at
S5000 and soon after Z. j. Wilson, Presl-
dent of the Vallejo Bank, and Il. j. II.
Alden, of Piper, Alden & Co. of this city,
went on the bonds. The penalty, if found
guilty, is imprisonment not less than one
year or more than five at hard labor, or a
fine of not less than $1,000 or more than
$1,000. The penalty is fixed by Section 5i3S
of the Revised Statutes.

Three Deaths Occur in One Week in On
Family.

Three Deaths Occur in One Week in One
Family.
Bad drainage and diphtheria and an igno-
rance of that disease have caused the death
of five of the family of eight children of A.
E. and Jennie Williams, who occupy a flat
at 2604 Howard street. Their two eldest
died before the family came from London,
Ontario, to this city. Their three youngest,
Pearl, F'losse and BERTHE, whose ages ranged
from 10 months 10 years. died OF diphtheria
this week. Two of the surviving children
are still afflicted with the disease. Mr.. Will
Jams, who is employed in a real estate office,
says that his physician failed to discover
that the first child taken sick had diphtheria
until after several days treatment. In the
meantime the Others became afflicted before
the true nature of the disease was known.
The cause OF the spread of the disease is
attributed to bad drainage in the house and
an imperfect sewer system in the vicinity.
