ON ANOTHER TACK.
The Thugs Make Two Attempts to
Hold Up Cabs.
VIII the Trustees Wipe Out the Dives,
and Restore Peace to This
Community

1t is now in order for c5bmen to go
''heeled." Two of the Quincy drivers
yesterday applied for and were given per-
mission to carry pistols for the protection
OF themselves and their passengers.
The treason therefor is that the thugs
and highwaymen have not, as some have
thought, been scared out of the city. They
are still with US, and have added to gar
rodng, pocket picking and attempted
murder the novelty of standing up cabs.
Between IL and II o'clock on Saturday
night, as a Quincy cab was being driven
up K street to the residence Of promi-
nent county official, three roughly
dressed and equally tough looking men
stepped into the middle of the highway,
at Fourteenth street, and endeavored to
stop the vehicle.
The occupant of the cab called out to
the driver to whip up his horse, which he
did, and succeeded in getting away.
Shortly afterward another cab was
passing the same locality-the driver of
which had not heard of the above-men-
toned occurrence-and the same fellows
attempted to stop it, but with no better
success.
The affair was related to officer Gibson a
little later, and he went to the place
where ii occurred, but the men had got
out OF the way.
Yesterday the manager for the Quincy
Company applied to the Chief of Police
for permission to arm his drivers.
Things have indeed come to pretty
pass when, in a community of homes like
Sacramento, there should be permitted to
exist score or more of deadfalls that are
known to be maintained as places of rem
devious for thugs and footpads-whos
proprietors are in many cases jail birds,
and where ex-convictS cOngregate as soon
as they leave the penitentiary, and lay
their plans for committing depredations
on the good people of the community.
And the worst of it all is that the peo-
pies officials make this condition of af-
fairs possible by the indiscriminate issu-
ance of licenses to persons to maintain
these hell-hOles where all this crime is
bred.
The eyes of the community are on the
men to-day who are charged with the
maintenance Of law and order and de-
cency in this city. They can, by the au-
thority vested in them, close these incu-
bators of crime in twenty-four hours, and
wipe out the disgrace that now rests on
the fair name Of this city.
The power was given them to do this
thing, and the demand of the people is
that it be done.

the man whom Under Sheriff Bevan of
that city had arrested, he was satisfied
that he was not the man wanted. But
not desiring to take any chances on be-

prisoner to this city for more thorough
inspection. Upon the arrival of the Chief
and his prisoner, yesterday, several per-
sons who know Haley were brought to
the City Prison, and they Immediately
declared him to be the wrong man. The
MarySville Haley resembles the one
wanted, and has also dome time" in

other one was there, having been sent
from MarYsVillC for robbery. He re-
turned to Marysville yesterday afternoon
Chief Drew and Captain Lee took Cor
don, the well-dressed ruflian who
welded the hammer that came so near
ending Aliens life, from his cell yester-
day and had talk with him. The young
fellow, however, is crafty rascal and
uttered not 4 syllable that would tend to
impliCate him in the assault. OF course
he denied that he had ever entered into a
conspiracy with Casey, Haley and an
other man to rob Allen, and denied that
the money found upon him was Aliens.
He admitted having been III Sacramento
shortly before the robbery, but declared
that he left for San Francisco Sunday
afternoon.
The police are still searching for Haley,
and hope TO have him in custody before

TWICE BEATEN.
The Oaklanders Were Not in Either of
Yesterdays Games.

SAN Francisco, May I7.-At Emery
vile this morning all the scoring was
done in the first inning. McGucken
went to second when Long muffed his
fly, and scored on Hanley's single and
Speer's sacrifice. Hanley scored on
Ebright's double.
The game was prettily played, and the
base on balls. The Colonels' inability to
hit Lookabaugh's curves led to their
being whitewashed, the score being to
III favor of San Jose.
In the afternoon game in San Francisco
the Oaklands sustained a disastrous de-
feat. They went to pieces in the fifth in
ming, and all through the remainder of
the game played like school boys.

Baseball Car.
There now-there's a sample of

conductor, as he gave the bell-rope d
couple Of vicious jerks.
An electric train was speeding up J
street bound for the ball park. The first car
was an open one, and was crowded, there
being standing room only. The second
car carried only a few persons, and there
was seating room in it for fully twenty.
Two women hailed the train at Seventh
street, and after sizing up' both cars
boarded the crowded one. OF course two
men got up and gave them the seats
which they had paid for the privilege of
occur wing.
"0h that's nothing" said the conductor
to the RECoRD-UNIoN man, 'they do
worse tricks than that every day. Ii the
crowd had been in the rear car they
would have boarded that one. and if there
was no crowd on either car they would
have waited until one came along that
