TRACES OF Err.
A Foul Suspicion Attached to a Wealthy
Mans Brother.

SANTA Rosa, July 13.-On July 9th
John l.. Walker OF Sebastopol found
number of torn and bloody garments
near a marsh on his iather's ranch. On
the ground near by were evidences of a
desperate struggle, and it was thought
some one had been murdered there and
the body sunk in the marsh. Today
the sheriff arrested Joseph Walker,
brother of John Walker, owner Of the
ranch, for completely in the murder. 1t
has been learned that Walker, in COM
pany with two Indians and their wives,
on the night of July 4th, was at the
spot where the bloody garments were
found. Walker explains the blood on a
shirt found by saying that while
trying to protect an Indian woman
from beating by her husband, he re-
ceived blow on the nose, causing it to
bleed. The Indian then tore off his
shirt, allowing him to wipe blood on
it. The Indian denies this part OF the
story, but says Walker was there. Both
Indians have been arrested on the charge
of murder. Thus far no trace of the
body of the supposed murdered man has
been found. A young man named
George Fisher, who had been working
about Sebastopol for several months, is
missing and it is thought probable that
he has been murdered. John Walker,
brother of the accused man, is one of
the largest land owners in Sonoma
county, and proprietor of the woolen
mills at Santa Rosa

POOR CROPS IN EUROPE.
FRANCE is ESPECIALLY SHORT ON
GRAIN.
The Yield Estimated at Only Two-Thirds
of Crop-All Europe Looking Long
ingly at Uncle SANS Rich Harvests.

WASHINGTON, July ia report on
the harvest prospects in France and
Europe has been received at the state
department from Commercial Agent
Griffin, OF Limoges, France. The Ma
tlonal Millers' association. of France,
the report says, have issued an estimate
showing the yield of wheat for '91 to be
thirty-one per cent. less than the har-
vest of go. Russia, Tunis, Egypt, Rou-
mania and some of the Danubian prov
inces have fair harvest. in Hungary
it will be below the average this year.
The estimates given by the millers
the report says, are optimistic. Their
desire is to create the impression that
there is better supply than really
exists, with the purpose that they want
to buy grain as cbeaply as possible in
those fortunate countries that have of
their abundance to export.
In conclusion, the report says not
only France but all OF Europe is looking
longingly to the wheat fields of the
United States.
VIENNA, July 13.-The harvest in
Hungary will be of good quality, though
diminished in quantity. In Bulgaria
crops will be both plentiful and good.

Some Population Statistics.

The census bureau has just issued a bull
letin which gives tabular statements show
ing the distribution of population of the
United States in accordance with latitude
and longitude. Naturally the greater
density of population in a square degree is
governed by the location of the larger
cities. Thus the two square degrees be-
tween latitudes 40 degs. and Al degs. and
longitudes 70 degs. and Is degs., compris-
ing New York, Brooklyn, Jersey City and
other large cities, contain 3,653,000 inhabi
tants The square degree between lati
tudes 42 degs. and 43 degs. and longitudes
Il degs. and 72 degs., comprising Boston
and its suburbs, has l,233,O0O inhabitants;
that between latitudes 80 degs. and 40 degs.
and longitudes rs degs. and 76 degs., in
which is most of Philadelphia, has 1,414.
600, while that between latitudes Al degs
and 40 degs. and longitudes 81 degs and SO
degs., in which is situated most of Chi
cago, contains $4,000 people,"

AT SAN FERNANDO.
The Squatters Still There, Waiting
for the Special Agent.


for the Special Agent.
The situation at the Lankershim
ranch, as far as could be learned yester-
day, was unchanged. The squatters are
still expecting the arrival of the govern
ment special agent, who is to decide
whether the land upon which they are
located is government land or not. Mr..
Lankershim has as yet made no move
ment to eject the squatters, and every
one seems waiting to see what will turn
up next. Mr.. Grove was not visible at
any time when the HERALD representa-
tive called to see him yesterday, and
was said to be at San Fernando
looking after the interests Of the
company" Some of those who
paid the SIG entrance fee to
the company are said to be getting un-
easy and to be asking themselves what
it was all for and where the correspond
ing benefit comes in. If Mr.. Grove was
at San Fernando yesterday he was prob
ably engaged in answering these anxious
inquirers.
One man who came down for pro-
visions says that they (that is the com
pany) expect to have the whole thing
settled in month, and after that to
peaceably hold the land as long as the
law requires to gain title to it. If
their expectations were realized it would
take some remarkably quick work, even

them to two hours instruction six days in
the week in whatever branch they choose
to take up, to attendance upon all the lect-
ures of the institute and to access to the
periodicals and books in the reading room
and the library. The institute was estab-

of influential citizens.
But it was not until the school of de-
sign was started, in 1856, that the institute
became popular. The first industrial eX-
position in the United States was held
under the auspices of the institute in 1888.
Four hundred articles were displayed. The
Cincinnati public library and the art
school have grown out of the institute.
Since the school of design (now called the
industrial and art schooD was started
nearly 10000 pupils have received instruc-
tion. The enrolment on Jan. /, 1891, was
