AFRAID OF CHINA,
Slant-Eyed Warriors Could Injure
RuSSia'S Schemes.

ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 1.-The refusal
of Russia to take hand in coercing
China is attributed to the dread with
which Russians regard China's capacity
for injuring Russia's interests in the
interior of Asia. Russia has always
feared a sudden and overwhelming
movement of the Chinese that would
sweep back the Russian empire per-
haps to the Ural mountains. This fear
seems to be traditional, and is as strong
to-day as when Russia was Tartar
province. The Chinese have a very
large force stationed near the Manchu-
rian boundary, and could throw all army
into Siberia far superior to any force
that Russia could readily place in that
neighborhood.

THAT OAK PARK FENCE.

Chairman Pro Tempore Bates Sus-
pendS the Rules-Approval of

The Supervisors did not do much bust
ness yesterday, although their time ap-
peared to be pretty closely occupied most
of the day.
At the forenoon session communica-
tions We're received from the publishers
Of the Bee and Leader soliciting the ad-

filed without action.
After passing upon number of de-

On taking the chair Mr.. Bates made a

HIT BY A LOCOMOTIVE.
A Colusa Mans Close Call for His Life
Yesterday

Yesterday.
yesterday morning an accident hap
pened at the depot which came near re-
sulting in the death of Frank Monroe, a
stockman. who resides near Princeton,
Colnsa County.
Monroe was talking with friend near
the first track, when theincoming Marys-
vile train entered the depot at the east
end. As usual, the penetrating voice of
Watchman Clark rang out above the din,
Yardmaster Halloran's whistle shrieked,
and the bell on the locomotive changed
vigorously.
Monroe heard all of these warnings,
but appeared to be engaged in such a
heated debate with his friend that he did
not realize how close he was to the track
AS the locomotive came nearer he uncon-
sciously backed up closer to the track,
and, Notwithstanding the shouts of sew
eral persons, he continued to step back
ward until the train struck him.
The beam on the left side of the pilot
caught him in the hip and pitched him
forward on his head. He was thrown
clear of the rails, but was so bewildered
that when he endeavored to rise to his
feet, he staggered toward the track again,
but his friend, by timely interference,
dragged him away and saved his life.
Upon examination it was found that
Monroe had been but slightly hurt. His
hip was bruised somewhat, and there
was cut over one of his eyes. He read
lily confessed that the accident happened
through his own carelessness, and re-
marked on leaving the crowd: "Im
mighty lucky to get off as l did,
Everyone who witnessed the accident
concurred with him. There was quite a
crowd in the depot at the time, and many
believed Monroe was killed when struck
by the engine.

A DESERVING ENTERPRISE.
The Natural Gas Project Should Hav

The Natural Gas Project should Have
the Help of Citizens.
Messrs. Senator Z. r. Dray, Claus An
derson, e. j. Croly, M. J. Dillman, A. C.
Hinkson and e. G. Hopkins. constituting
a committee of stockholders in the Nat
ural Gas and Water Company, are about
to make canvass among citizens for SUBJ
scriptions to the capital stock of the COM
pany.
The latter has decided upon sinking a
new well near the old one, and-aided by
past Xperience-eXpectst to meet with no
difficulty in obtaining an abundant sup
ply of natural gas for illuminating and
heating purposes. If its efforts should
prove successful. every resident of the
city will be benefited thereby, and it will
not cost much to determine whether or
not there is an abundant supply of gas
beneath the city which can be had by
simply boring for it.
Fifty-eight of the original stock holders
have duplicated their stock subscriptions,
and these few citizens have thus agreed to
provide sum that is regarded as suffi-
cient to sink the new well to depth
equal to that of the old one: but there is
always a possibility of accident and de-
lays in such undertakings; hence the de-
sire TO have enough money subscribed
beforehand to meet ali probable exigen-
cies and insure the perfect success of the
enterprise.
The company now owns its own plant.
and is ready to begin work at once.
Hence it behooves citizens who can spare
a little capital to subscribe TO the stock of
the company. If reasonable number
will do this, the company can set to work
without fear of being hampered through
lack of funds. The sum required is

MURDEROUO CONVICT.
Dutch" Baker Tries to Kill Another
Fellow-Prisoner.
All About Some Opium - The Knife
Was Too Thin and Failed
in Its Work.

There came near being murder at the
Folsom Prison yesterday morning.
a life-termer known as ''Dutch' Baker,
who, several months ago, stabbed and
killed fellow-convict at the San Quen-
tin penitentiary, and who is one of the
most troublesome prisoners at the prison,
tried to murder another convict named
Wilson.
1t appears that Baker and Wilson had a
quarrel over the division of some opium
which had been smuggled into the prison.
Baker tried to assault Wilson but was
prevented by others.
The bloodthirsty murderer's anger did
not cool at all, and after enlisting a con-
vict named Raymond in his service, went
after Wilson again. He was armed with
a case-knife, which he had whetted on a
piece OF rock until it was as sharp as a
razor.
The fact that the knife had been whetted
down SO thin was all that saved Wilson's
life.
They caught Wilson when no guards
were near enough to interfere. Ray
mond grabbed him from behind and held
his arms, while Baker aimed a vicious
blow at Wilson's abdomen.
Baker meant to murder, but the weapon
failed to do its work. The thin blade,
upon coming in contact with Wilson's s
body with such force, was bended over
and only inflicted superficial flesh
wound.
Before Baker could make another
thrust he was pulled away from Wilson
by the guards and other prisoners.
Had the murderer been more deliber-
ate and used less force in delivering the
blow, Wilson would certainly have been
fatally cut.
Baker was Immediately taken to a
dungeon, and will be kept in solitary
confinement as a punishment.

saw the robbers running for the hills.
His first impulse was to run after them
but, observing that they were armed,
thought it would be wise to arm himself
too. Running upstairs he secured his
pistol and then gave chase. The desper-
ADDE'S had by this time obtained quite a

be useless to follow them further. Sub
sequently man was sent out on horse
back, but he, too, was unsuccessful.

The robbery, despite it's boldness, is not
thought TO have been accomplished by
old-time or professional bandits. The
latter would have been more apt to have
left Morebeck bound hand and foot so
that they could get good start on their
pursuers.
