THE NEW SOUTH.
MR.. DEPEW RELATES HIS IMPRESS
SIONS OF IT.
He Thinks Good Deal of the Old South
is Left-He Considers the Southern
Convict System Especially Bad.

WASHINGTON, April 4.-Chauncey T. De
pew, just returned from the South, was
asked by a local reporter this evening if
he had seen much of the new South. He
replied: "Some of the new and good
deal of the old South. The
old stock sincerely think their
property will be wiped out, homes
broken up and society destroyed if the
colored mems votes are counted, and
they look upon the Northern Republi-
cans as species of anarchists, who will
cheerfully cooperate in such destruc-
tion.' .t,
Cone thing more than any other"
said Depew, (Which has debauched pub
lie sentiment in the South, is
the convict labor system in GER
tain States. Unless Remnants stories
of Siberian horrors are absolutely
true, there can be no scenes in civil
lized country so terrible as in Southern
convict camps, Sometimes the con-
tracts call for a certain number of con-
victs and the State furnishes them. If
they cannot fill the quota otherwise, the
most trivial offenses are made excuse for
long terms of imprisonment. l have no
doubt many innocent men are serving
sentences in Southern convict camps
that quota might be filled.

THE DIAMOND FIELD.
THE CHAMPIONS KALSOMINED AT
STOCKTON.
Brilliant Playing by the Stockton Team.
The Senators Defeated in Tamely
Contested Game at San Francisco.

STOCKTON, April 4.-The champions
were shut out this afternoon in a we'll
played game by the Stocktons. The vic
tory by the home team was won by SUI
perior playing, both in the field and at
the bat. Borchers pitched great game,
and received perfect support from Fair
hurst and the rest of the team. Meegan
pitched good ball, and had fine
support, but was sized for nine hits.
Selma accepted seventeen chances and
made three-bagger. The only errors
of the Oaklands were of an excusable
order, and merely cut off earned runs.
The Stocktons in the field were impreg-
nable.. Only five Oakland men got to
first base, two being on balls. Score ::
Stockton, 7; Oakland, 0.
SAN Francisco, April 4.-The game of
ball between the San Franciscos and
Sacramentos was rather tamely con-
tested Young, the new pitcher for the
Friscos, was poorly supported, and the
Sacramentos narrowly missed winning
the game. They made seven errors
during the game, but their out
fielding and base-playing made
amends for their mistakes. At
the end of the seventh innings the
Senators had the game virtually won,
but Young, Shea, Levy, Buchan and
Sweeney scored in the eighth by some
clever work, and with Young's tally in
the last innings, saved the game for the
home team. The San Franciscos had
ten errors to their credit, four of which
were due to Ebright.
Score; San Francisco, 12;. Sacra-
mentO, 10.

NINE HOURS A DAY.
The ROcklin Quarrymen Hopeful of
Gaining Their Demand.

SACRAMENTO, April A Rocklin
special to the Euening Bee says: There
is nothing new to report regarding the
big strike at Rocklin, except that the
outlook for the success of the strike is
brighter and the men are more conf
dent of winning than at any time since
Tuesday, when they left the quarries.
Tom Alester, president of the Quarry
mems Union, said the strikers were de-
termined to preserve peace and prevent
any violence. They realized that they
must secure the good will of the public
in their demands, and they do not pro-
pose to sacrifice popular opinion by
any acts of violence. Alester
said that he thought that there would
be no difficulty in the matter of the
men holding out in the face of the fact
that they have had very little work
during the winter ''It has been re-
ported" continued the union president,
''that we were demanding exorbitant
wages. The truth is, there never has
been word about wages in this contest.
The men are not complaining about pay.
All we want is nine hours day. Ii
you would work for nine hours day in
one of these quarries in summer, you
would see that we don't ask too much.
The sun beats down upon the rocks in
the holes where the men work, and
have seen it as high as 125 degrees there.
We think that nine hours day is
enough for any man in such a place"

TAMAGNO'S ECONOMY.
HE GETS UP EARLY TO SAVE. A,
DAYS ROOM RENT.
The Great Tenor Made the Laughing,
Stock of a New York Hotel Through
His Parsimony.

New YORK, April 4.-Tamagno, the
famous tenor, goes back to Europe on
the La Normandie tomorrow. He came
near leaving some costumes behind on
account of debt of seven dol
lars, which he avowed he would not
pay. A settlement was effected only
after Tamagno had made scene
and caused himself to be made a laugh
ing stock by the other guests. The
reckoning came yesterday, and Tamagno
rose early to save the daily rent of his
apartments. Before 7 O'Clock he went to
the office and called for his bill There
was a stormy time and Landlord
Martin, after telling Tamagno what he
thought of him, gave him the option of
paying the 81 or being proceeded against
under the inn-keeper's act. The money
was paid. Although the steamer will
not sail till tomorrow, Tamagno has had
his luggage taken to the dock and put
on board, and he stayed there himself.

CRIME CONFESSED.
Four Persons Implicated in the Freder
icksOn Murder.

Four Persons Implicated in the Freder-
ickson Murder.
ASTORIA, Ore, April 4.-The prelimi-
nary examination of George f. Rose,
John B. Rose, John Edwards, Edward
Gibbons and George d. Jones, charged
with the murder of J. F. Frederickson
and wife near South Bend, Pacific county,
Washington, last January, took place at
Bay Center yesterday. The confession
of George f. Rose was introduced. He
stated that his father wanted 100 acres
of land that Jens Frederickson took.
Edwards and my father made it up
as to how they would kill Frederick
son and wife. Edwards, Glib
bons, Frederickson and George Rose
went down to the woods, about half a
mile west of the house. Gibbons said:
Look here, Frederickson, and Fred
erickson turned, when Gibbons fired,
the shot striking Frederickson in the
face. They buried Frederickson and
made the same excuse to bring Mrs.
Frederickson down to Roses house,
where Edwards shot her through the
head with Roses rifle. After killing
her, they made up a story that Fred
erickson and wife started in boat for
Bruceport and were lost. Edwards was
to take Frederickson's boat and swamp
it."
At the conclusion of the hearing John
B. Rose, George f. Rose, Edward Glib
bons and John Edwards were remanded
to the custody of the Sheriff to await the
action of the Grand Jury at the July
term of the District Court.
