The change in the estimation in which
Charles Bradlaugh was held which
took place between the time
he was first elected to the
House Of Commons and the time Of his
death was remarkable. And yet Brad
laugh did not change. He died without the
satisfaction of knowing that the House Of
Commons had made a tardy reparation Of
the wrongs done him when they prevented
him from taking his seat by striking the
whole of the entries respecting those mi
quitous proceedings from the House of
Commons records. No private member of
the Hause of Commons ntroduced and
passed so many bills for the benefit of the
public as he. 1t will be difficult to replace
him. Bradlaugh will be buried to-day at
Working, and those attending have been re-
quested by the relatives, in accordance with
his known wish, not to wear mourning.

There is great deal Of speculation as to
who will succeed Count Won Waldersee as
the head of the German army. All specu-
lation centers upon Count Won Haeseler as
hissuccessor. Haeseler. who is now COM
manding corps at Metz, looks much as
Moltke did thirty years ago. He is tall,
lean and scholarly, and yet one of the best
and most active OF horseuren, teetotaler,
and a frugal liver, and absolutely wrapped
up In his work. Many minor changes in
the army are also expected soon, owing to
the advancing ages of a number of generals
now at the head Of the army corps. WaIder
see, tits said, will take command of the Min tn
corps, stationed at Altoona. near Hamburg.

Restless Boomers.

There are several thousand people camped
almost in sight of what is known as The
Cherokee strip, and it is expected that they
will enter the new territory some time this
week, Notwithstanding the fact that they
have been notified that it is not yet open for
settlement They think that If they once
get claims located the government will not
disturb them. Indeed, it would be impossl-
BILE to drive them Off the strip without the
aid Of troops.
The government may not issue procla-
nation Tor weeks, or even months, that the
territory is open for settlement. and to per-
NIT those who purpose to squat on the land
would be giving them an advantage over
those who are willing to obey the law. 1t
would be an injustice on the part Of the
government to let the boomers do as they
please
There was a great deal of trouble in con-
nection with the opening of Oklahoma.
When those who had waited for the procla-
nation announcing that that territory was
open for settlement reached the new coun-
try they found that nearly all the best land
had been taken. Even officers of the gov
eminent, who had been appointed to keep
settlers out of the territory until it could be
legally entered, so far forgot their duty as
| to stake Off claims before 1t was lawful for
them to do so. And strange as it may ap-
pear they were permitted to profit by their
unlawful acts
The government ought to keep the boom
ers off the Cherokee strip. even If the entire
army had to be employed to do 80, until the
proclamation announcing it open for settle
ment has been issued. There are about
6,000,000 acres in the strip" and It con-
tains great deal of excellent land. 1t is a
better country than Oklahoma, but that is
not saying great deal for it.

TEMPORARILY EMBARRASSED

The Old-EstabIiShed w. r. Strong
Company Makes an Assignment.
The w. r. Strong Company, for many
years one of the heaviest fruit-shippers
in California, with branch houses at
Fresno, Los Angeles, Riverside and in
the East, has made a temporary assign
ment for the benefit of creditors. Mr..
Platt, the general manager, states that
the cause of the embarrassment is simply
that the business had outgrown the cap
1ral OF the corporation, and it had gotten
ltz funds invested in such manner that,
while the company is perfectly solvent,
1t cannot command ready money with
which to meet its present obligations.
The property of the company consists
of real estate in various parts of the State,
nursery stock, book accounts and gen
eral merchandise. The creditors are the
Various other blanks, for small amounts,
in Fresno and Los Angeles, and fruit
growers in several districts.
No general annoyance will be caused
by the suspension. The w. r. Strong
Company has been in business so long in
this community that nobody here doubts
the honesty of the men composing it nor
their ability to meet their obligations if
given a reasonable time in which to get
their affairs Strengthened out. The COM
pany's resources are immense and its
business extensive, and the present en-
barrasSment should be but temporary.
The company claims that, with a short
extension, they can pay in full, and they
will ask creditors simply TO agree to this.
The assignees are Allan Towle, A. w.
Porter and l.. +. Smith. 1t is understood
that most of the leading creditors have
signihed willingness to accept the terms
proposed, and the probability is that the
company will continue right along.

THAT DIAMOND RING.
The Police Recover Il, and Parker is
Again Happy
1t Was Hidden in q Pile of Rubbish
in the Rear of the Notorious
Rosebud Dive.

For the past two days the police have
had in custody the two colored women
implicated in the robbery of George
Parker and James C. Kelly, also the
women's male pals, and evidence has at
last been obtained which will lead to the
conviction of three of the party. The
fourth lone of the mem has been found
to be innocent of completely in the crime.
Last Sunday night Messrs. Parker and
Kelly had their pockets rified by the
women on the street. Parker lost valu-
able $3.50 diamond ring, and Kelly was
minus So So Captain Lee and Officer
Lowell were notified, and Immediately
set out to look for the women, and in less
than half an hour they had both Of them
and their pals arrested and locked up.
Their names were Charles Allen, Ida
Allen, Pet Williams and Fred. Ousley.
The Williams girl was the first to con-
fess. She said she and Ida stepped out
in front of Parker and Kelly and caught
hold of them. She grabbed Kelly, and
by addressing him as though she was in
toxicated and ''out on time,r succeeded
in getting her fingers into his vest pocket
and extracting So 90 therefrom, notwith-
standing the fact that he tried to shove
her away with his umbrella.
She further stated that after Parker re-
leased himself from the other girl she
and Ida walked away, and the latter
made her divide the So so, and claimed
that she (Ida) had secured nothing.
This confession was enough to convict
only one of the party, and Captain Lee
set about to entrap the other. He had
several interviews with the Allen girl,
but she denied that she took or even saw
the diamond ring.
Last evening the Captain informed her,
however, that he had a chain of evidence
that would completely surprise her and
disprove her story entirely. AT this she
weakened and commenced to cry, and
said she would tell where the ring was if
the Captain would allow her to talk
privately with the man Allen for few
minutes.
The request was granted, and after she
had held conversation with him she ad-
mitted that she had hidden the ring.
Lee was not inclined to believe this story,
and told her that it was best to tell the
whole truth.
"Now, didn't you give that ring to
Allen ?'' asked the Captain.
After hesitating for a few moments, the
girl finally broke down and admitted that
she did.
Allen was then called in, and he turned
q shade whittier when informed that the
woman had confessed ALL and that he was
known to have the ring. He weakened,
and said he would show the officers
where he had hidden it. He was accom-
panied by Captain Lee and Officer Lowell
and led the way to the back yard of
Googy Walch's notorious Rosebud"
dive on L street, between Third and
Fourth. There he pointed to a pile of
rubbish, and said the ring was hidden in
the midst of the debris.
After search of about th1ee-quarters of
an hour, during which about one hundred
negroes congregated to see the SHOW
the S350-ring was found by Officer
Lowell, wrapped in piece of paper, and
Mr.. Parker is happy once more.

A BAD lot.
Women Who Make Their Living by
Robbing Men.
Charles Curran and r. f. johnson the
Latest Victims-WflIfam Gilson's
Companions Arrested.

Hardly night passes that one or more
persons do not complain to the police of
having been robbed by women, and it
would keep busy larger force of officers
than Sacramento possesses in trying to
recover the money stolen and secure evi-
dence against the thieves.
Few people have little sympathy for
men who get robbed in the L-street dens,
and they probably do not deserve any
still, it is a disgrace to the city that an
army of degraded females who make
regular business of robbing people should
be allowed to remain here.
A French woman named Marie Fla
beon, who resides in the disreputable row
OF houses on the south side Of l. street,
between Third and Fourth has been ar
rested and charged with grand larceny,
on complaint of a man named Charles
Curran.
The amount he claims to have lost while
In her company is S44 but after swearing
TO the complaint yesterday he seemed
somewhat backward about showing ND
III court. If he does not prosecute the
woman she will be charged with vagrancy.
ANOTHER VICTIM.
Two women of lower I. street. who
travel by the names of May Cooney and
1neZ Gilbert, were also arrested yester-
day on charge of grand larceny. A
man by the name of r. T. Johnson swore
to the complaint. He claims that while
standing in a saloon at Second and L
streets he was accosted by the women,
and before they left him he was just $40
out of pocket.
A VETERAN ROOSTER PLUCKED.
William otherwise ''Chicken') Gibson
has sworn to a complaint charging Lizzie
Clifton, Kate Pendegast and a woman
named Sadie with grand larceny. The
Clifton woman, it is said, is an old friend
of Gilson's, and he went to her place in
the alley between Front and Second, n
and o Streets on Tuesday to see her. The
other women mentioned were in the
house, and q merry time was enjoyed by
all.
When Gibson concluded that it was
about time to go he discovered that $50
belonging to him was missing. 1t had
been stolen or lost, and he Immediately
suspected the women. They were ar
rested yesterday.

UNPLEASANT DISCOVERY.
a Law That Seriously Affects the Fire
Department..


The discovery has been made that the
action of the Fire Commissioners, some
seven months ago, in increasing the SAL
aries of the Chief Engineer and few
other officials of the Fire Department. is
in conflict with the Act under which the
paid department was organized.
The Commissioners, recognizing the eff
fciency of Chief Guthrie and his assist
ants, raised their salaries as follows:
Chief Engineer from 500 to SIPS per
month, Assistant Engineer from $50 to
500, and Secretary from $50 to SIS. Since
last May the men have been drawing the
increased amounts
The Act referred to, however. fixes the
amounts of these officers salaries, and
further provides that they shall not be in
creased.
The additional discovery has been
made that the law provides for but two
fire engines, while the city has purchased
and keeps in use three of them. On the
face of things, it looks very much as if
there VIII have to be a return of salary
moneys to the treasury and the laying off
OF one engine and crew, but there may be
found legal way out Of the difficulty.

The Hebrews and the CZarWitch..the
Grand Dukes Funeral.
(By the United Press.)

LONDON, May ia Vienna despatch
says that some of the Hebrews in that
city are not slow to evince their satis-
faction at the distress of the Russian
Imperial family owing to the attack on
the Czarwitch, and aver that it is just
retribution for the frightful calamities
inflicted on the Hebrews by
the Cars Government. In Warsaw
the police arrested several men who
were distributing the news in an exag-
gerated form to the effect that the Czar-
witch was dead. The funeral of the
Grand Duke Nicholas was one of the
most splendid exhibitions ever witnessed
in Russia The body was saluted by
1000 troops on the way to St. Peters
burg. The Czars court is now in double
mourning. The remains of Nicholas are
inferred in the Cathedral of st. Peter
and St. Paul. The illegitimate children
of the late Grand Duke, four in number,
have been taken under the special pro-
lection of the Imperial house and will
be trained accordingly.
