A Mans Presence Creates Trouble In a
Once Happy Camp.
On Sunday afternoon a little affair &C.
Cured in the Coffee Parlors," on K street,
between Fifth and Sixth, that gave rise to
issues which will probably have to be set
tied in Court. The place was opened some
months ago by Miss Emma Peters, who
subsequently took in as partner young
friend of her own sex. They did well, and
recently the latter married A. Feutzling,
the chef d. cuisine of downtown restau-
rant but continued to share the duties of
the coffee parlors with her fair partner.
FeutZiing, it seems, has been a frequent
visitor at his wife's place of business, and
called there on Sunday last. Miss Peters
says he had been too meddlesome with the
affairs of the place, and told him, as he
was about to go into the kitchen, that his
presence was Objectionable to her, and that
she would no longer tolerate his insults
According to her story, he pushed his
way past her aud went out the rear door,
but soon returned and hung about the
place, until she mot being quite an ans ely
lost her temper and made demonstration
as if to force him out the door. At this,
she says, he struck her with bottle, inflict-
ing a severe wound on her head Iu try
ing to ward off the blow she threw up her
hand, which came in contact with Feutz-
Gng's face.
Feutzlng claims, on the other hand, that
the way he happened to hit Miss Peters
with the bottle was in throwing up his
hand to ward off blow she had aimed al
him. He couldn't help it if he happened
to have bottle in his hand and it should
| accidentally hit his sssailant's head.
In the meantime, Miss Peters is at home
aud Feutzling can visit the coffee parlors II

Officer Mclaughlin Makes Three Square
Hits that Count.
Last evening policeman Billy Nc
Laughlin, the well known baseball catcher,
was standing at one of the corners of Third
and L streets, when three gh-looking
chaps stopped near him. While they were
standing there officers Franks and Cham
bers appeared on the opposite side OF the
street, and officer Mclaughlin whistled to
them. One of the toughs then approached
him and said:
who in HI are you whistling at ?''
accompanying the request for information
with vile epithet applied to the officer
That's none of your business" replied
the latter. I'm whistling to gentlemen,
not hoodlums ~
Then the others approached Mclaughlin
and applied insulting language to him,
which he resented, and one of the gang
struck at him.
Biffl The officers fist went against the
fellows jaw, and the first tough dug his
nose into the sidewalk.
Bang went McLaughlin's right between
the eyes of tough No. 2, land whack
landed the left on the mouth of the other.
The toughs didn't know who they had to
deal with, evidently, for when officers
Franks and Chambers reached the spot the
trio were all stretched on the sidewalk, IN
able to respond to the call of Time"
The officers cast plying glances at the
PROSTATE toughs and then silently left them
to dream of having been dropped into cor
raj filled with mules whose hind-leg mus
Giles were in perfect condition for business.
Three men out and nobody on bases,''
sighed the noted back-stop, as he crossed
the street nursing his stiff thumb.

Prevalent Diseases During September


Prevalent Diseases During September
State Board of Health Report.
From the report of Gerard G. Tyrrell,
Secretary of the State Board of Health, for
the month of December. the following facts
are cleaned:
Mortality reports received from ninety
four localities. containing an estimated pop
ulation of 7Sl, 800 give the number OF
deaths as 963, a percentage OF % per thou
sand in the month, CIR an annual mortality
at the rate of IA 70, which is a slightly in
creased rate over the previous month, but
sufficiently low to indicate how favorable
the condition of the public health was dur
ing December, as Dr.. Billings, in his work
for the tenth census, estimates the annual
death rate for the whole country TO be Is
in I, 900, and this under the most favorable
conditions.
The mortality from consumption in
creased during the month TO Ill.
Pneumonia also increased its mortality
to 81 deaths, As of which occurred in San
Francisco.
Bronchitis caused IS deaths, which is an
increase over the previous month.
Diphtheria and Group, collectively, caused
IS deaths. the same number as in Novem-
Der. Eighteen of these occurred in San
Francisco.
Reports received from 100 localities indi-
cate an absence of serious epidemic disease
within the State The extreme moisture
and cold which prevailed during the month
increased in marked manner the fire.
quency of all affections of the respiratory
organs, with a corresponding fatality from
consumption, pneumonia and bronchitis.
Measles was observed in Colfax, Williams,
Angels Camp, Pleasanton, Sausslito and
Dixon. In the latter town it may be said
to be epidemic.
Diphtheria and Group were quite fire.
quently reported The cases were all
sporadic, and in nearly every instance con-
fined to their place of origin. The con-
tsgious nature of the disease is very gener-
ally acknowledged, hence more care is
taken to prevent its spread. and as conse-
quence we have no epidemic reported.
Typhoid fever was quite prevalent
throughout the State.
The severe rainfall has materially les
sened the frequency of remittent and inter-
mittent fevers, those prevailing now being
very mild in character, and chiefly occur
ing in those persons subject to malarial
attacks.
Influenza was quite prevalent through
out the State, although not having as yet
attained the severity which chsracterizes
the disease as reported from Europe and
the Eastern States. 1t is undoubtedly the
same disease. and will become epidemic,
although the type may be milder. No
deaths from it have yet been reported, but
many of our correspondents agree upon
the fact that the disease is characterized by
that extreme debility which is likely to
prove fatal to the debilitated, or those suf-
fering from previous sickness, or in the
very aged.

he Pleads Guilty to Having Assaulted
Reporter Sheehan.
The case of William P. Harlow, charged
with battery upon John A. Sheehan, Bee
reporter, came up for hearing in the Police
Court yesterday. Harlow pleaded guilty,
however, and waived time for sentence.
Judge Buckley asked for information re-
garding the matter. and in response Shee-
han took the witness-stend. He testified
that he was playing cards in g Fourth
street saloon on Monday night, when Har-
low entered, and without a word of warn
ing struck him vicious blow On the head.
The witness stated further, that not deem
ing himself a match for Harlow, he beat a
hasty retreat.
Other witnesses were about to be called
when Harlow announced that he would ad-
nit all they would testify to.
Judge Buckley then sentenced Harlow
to pay fine of SIS, with the alternative of
spending fifteen days in the county jail.
Harlow paid the fine promptly.

So the Supreme Court DEGREES Regard
ing Mr.. Humbert's salary.
Controller Dunn some time ago refused
to audit the demand of P. A. Humbert for
5000 as his monthly salary as Commits
sioner for Examining Rivers and Harbors,
on the ground that no provision had been
made in the appropriation bill for the pay
ment OF such salary. The matter was
taken to the Supreme Court, and on Satur-
day last that tribunal issued writ of man
date directed to the Controller requiring
him to either pay the salary or appear be-
fore the Court on the 25th instant and
show cause why he should not do so.
The Examining Commission of Rivers
and Harbors was created by the last Leg
islature, and the Act provides that it shall
consist of three members, each of whom is
to receive a salary of 81, 400 per year.

The Supreme Court Affirms Judge
Hunts Important Decision.
The Supreme Court has affirmed the de-
cision of Judge Hunt (rendered about a
year and half ago, and published in the
RECORD UNION in the case of George E.
Bates against w. E. Gerber, as City Treas.
urer, brought to recover interest on past
due coupons. 1t will be remembered that
Judge Hunt decided in favor of the city,
and that such interest was not collectable.
The attorneys for the city were Taylor &
Holl.
This is an important victory for the city,
as in three years more interest will cease
on 100000 more of bonds. Then there
will be no more inducement for the bond
owners to hold on to them for high figures,
as the city need be in no haste to pay them.
The result of this decision will, it is
thought, be 10 save the city about half
million dollars

twenty years to ten years. In SO doing
the Governor says:
after a careful consideration of the
statements presented in the case of this
young man, I find that new evidence has
been brought to light which, had it been
introduced during the trial, would not, in
my judgment, have justified the Jury in
bringing in verdict for more than man
slaughter. A petition has been presented
me, signed by the entire jury and large
number of citizens of Humboldt county.

from Hon. Frank McGowsn, Judge ]. P.

"CATCHA DE SALMON"
The Fishermen Meet and Establish Prices
for the Coming Season.

The Fishermen Meet and Establish Prices
for the Coming Season.
A meeting of the Sacramento River
F.shermens Protective Union was held
recently in Benicia, which was at
tended by over 800 fishermen from
various places along the river. A res
olution fixing the price of salmon for
the coming season, as follows, was adopted
For spring, five cents per pound; for fall,
four cents per pound" 1t was also resolved
10 advertise the action of the Union, and to
make the fixed prices known, so that those
DESTROYS of obtaining fish or specializing
therein, might have an opportunity to
do so.
The Union consists of about 500 men,
who are engaged in the occupation of sal
mon fishing, aud during the season at least
800 boats are thus employed. Tee men,
hers are resolved to stick TO the prices fixed,
so that a fair price can be obtained through
ont the season for the products OF their
labors, and thus do away with all the COM
bines on the part of canneries, market men,
commission merchants and others.
This move will no doubt benefit the fish
ermen, who will during the coming year
find q ready market at the established
prices. Several new eanneries are prePar-
ing to start up. The old steel works at
Martinez is being converted into canDery,
Eastern capital having taken hold OF II,
and the cannery at Chips Island will also
be improved and enlarged.

COSTLY REPRESENTATION.
A Bridge Over the Mokelumne That Car
not be Utilized.

A Bridge Over the Mokelumne That Can
not be Utilized.
The matter of improving the extension
of the lower Stockton road, beyond Frank
lin, leading to the new bridge across the
Mokelumne river at Benson's Ferry, IS
again being agitated by the residents in the
southwestern end of the county. 1t will be
remembered that couple of years since the
Boards of Supervisors of Sacramento and
San Joaquin counties jointly paid for the
expense OF constructing the bridge, which
was intended to fill long-fel want" in
that vicinity.
The approach to the bridge from either
side was however, such that it could be
travelled only in summer, and thus the
bridge has been of but little utility to the
people on both sides of the river. On the
San Joaquin side movement has been
started for the improvement OF the road
from Stockton TO the junction Of the Wood
bridge and old Telegraph roads. Farmers
are offering to furnish teams, and business
men of Stockton, who want trade from the
northern end of the county, promise to
subscribe for fund to be expended in the
work. Supervisor Carson will direct the
work, and cover the road with sand so deep
that mud will not be seen for many years
to come The farmers are moving in the
matter, and say that the improvement will
be made.
If the proposed improvement should be
carried out, and the Sacramento side left
without good roadway from the bridge to
the high ground on this side, the result
would be the diversion to Stockton or other
San Joaquin towns large trade that would
naturally flow in this direction. Land
owners in the vicinity of the bridge last
summer formally rendered the Supervisors
of this county the right of way tor road
across their lands from the lower Stockton
road to the bridge, and the members of the
Board seemed to be unanimous in the de-
sire to aid in the construction of such a
road.
Now that the San Joaquin people are
moving in the matter, il behoves Sacra-
mento county to get in and do something
toward action the coming summer in the
direction referred to. The people in that
part of the county are ready to lend theil
assistance in the matter, and some definite
movement should be made. AS it is, the
fine bridge is useless except for Summer
travel, and even then it is ,ficult mat
ter to reach it from this side.
