a Fence Manufacturing Company
Wants to Come Here.

a Fence Manufactu Company
Wants to Come Here.
c. A. Luhrs, President of the Improve
,nent Association, has been in CORE
Bpondence with the Cleaveland Wire
Fence Company of Indianapolis, which
- looking to the establishment of a man
factory on this coast, with a view to
having it locate in Sacramento. The
comdany is engaged in the manufacture
of what is known as the Cleaveland iron
wire fence, which is coming into general
Use in the East and fast supplanting the
,leavy picket fences that surround city
-ots, such as is the prevailing style in this
city.
This style of wire fence is quite orna-
mental. The posts are of iron, with neat
cappings, and the light and airy effect is
generally admired. In a palmer style it
s used for field fencing. The best gal
vanized steel wire (fiatl is used, and it is
twisted and of course devoid of barbs.
Yesterday Mr.. Luhrs received a letter
from the company in which it said:
''It is our aim to locate at some good
point on the Pacific Coast by Novemb Der
/, 1891, and will state that much depends
upon the cost to us of the following
named articles, in carload lots, and the
price of labor:
"What is machine scrap-iron worth in
Sacramento?
'What is the cost of molding sand?
What is the cost of the best grade of
cuPola coke?
''What are the following sizes of black
pipe worth in car lots per foot, z, /, II,
ll, and 2-inch?
''What wages do machinists, molders
and helpers receive?
1--WE will probably employ within the
first three to six months fifty men. and
after the first year from 100 to 200, accord
ing to the growth of the demand on the
coast for the fencing. If it takes like it
does in Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Tennes-
see, Ohio and Michigan, we would re-
Iuire 400 men to manufacture the mate
rial for the Pacific Coast
I'VE would expect at least one acre of
ground, railroad switch, and $500
cash, to be paid out by trustee Ito be
named by your city, for improvements,
fixtures and machinery. Please ad-
dress,'' etc.
Accompanying the letter is a neatly
printed pamphlet containing photo-litho-
graphs of private grounds and residences,
public buildings, farms, etc, surrounded
by this neat and durable kind of fencing
Apparently it is as ornamental as it is
useful.
The company's proposition will prob
ably be brought up at the next meeting of
the improvement Association for consid-
Grafton. Itwould certainly be a good thing
for Sacramento if she can secure both the
proposed new enterprises named above,
as they viii give employment to several
hundred operatives and mechanics. In
stftutions of this kind are what the CITY
needs. and if it had them the ''Ioss'' of a
lew of It's deadfallS would not be iniuri-
ously felt in the community.

THUGS STILL At IT.
This Time They Assault a Woman
With HatChet.
Mrs. SpiIlneV FrightfuIIy Hacked
With Hatchet by Three I'm
known AsSailantS.

The latest victim of the bloodthirSty
thugs who live and fatten off this COM
munity was poor, defenseless woman,
named Mrs. A. Spillner. She lives at
Twenty-frst and Y streets, where her
husband had conducted saloon Some
weeks ago they quarreled, and he went
away.
1t was near midnight on Thursday.
and Mrs. Spillner had retired, as also
had woman named Mrs. Anna Zuflu
and her two children, who occupied the
kitchen in Mrs. Spillner's house. The
latter was awakened by knock at the
door, and she heard the voices of men
outside. She demanded 10 know what
they wanted, and they replied they
wanted whisky.
Mrs. Spillner replied that she had none.
This was the signal for an assault upon
the door, which was burst in, and three
rutfians gained entrance.
The first thing the woman knew she
was struck down by q terrible blow on
the head, the weapon glancing down
upon her face. Before quite losing con-
sciouSnesS she realized that she was being
beaten in a most brutal manner.
Somehow Mrs. Zulu was not awak-
elleu at the IliIe. Dut about daylight she
was aroused by loud groans, and found
Mrs. Spillner lying in her blood upon
the floor, and presenting horrible sight.
Mrs. Zulu ran to the house Of the nearest
neighbor, a Mr.. Gehrig, and gave the
alarm. The latter went over to the house
and placed the poor woman on her bed.
Later in the day she was removed to Mr..
Gehrig's house, and the police notified of
the affair.
Mrs. Spillner's wounds were dressed
by physician, and during the afternoon
she was able to talk. She does not. how
ever, know anything about what took
place after she was struck down. but
thinks she remembers Of the brutes run
ming from the place.
The woman is shocking injured, the
blow on the forehead having crushed in
| the skull and destroyed her left eve. The
! supposition is that she was assaulted with
hatchet. There seemed to be last even
| ing little or no hope that she could live.
| There is no clue whatever to the
| identity of the murderous scoundrels.
| The case was reported to the police so late
! in the day that they have not been able to
! get upon the track of any suspicious char
acters in that neighborhood.
| The husband of Mrs. Spillner has been
notified, it is said, of what had happened
| Chief of Police Drew is using every
| effort to get some clue as to the perpetrat-
ors of the deed. 1t is not unlikely that
| they were travelling toward the country,
and If so must have been seen yesterday
along the Freeport Or Stockton roads.
| The towns in the lower part of the county
should be inspected as it is more than
likely they have gone that way.

BALTZ' PITCHING.
1t Was the Chief Element in Yester-
days Victory.
A Fairly Good Game, But Small At
tendance-Is Interest in the Game
on the Wanes

After a lapse of three weeks the Sacra-
mento public were afforded an oppor-
tunity yesterday to see a ball game, but
only very small number availed them
selves of it. There were about fifty peo-
pie there who paid, and over twice that
number of ladies.
The game itself was not very interest
ing, still there were a number Of exciting
plays. Louis Baltz, a young man born
and raised in Sacramento, tried his skill
as a pitcher against the Oaklands, and
won praise from all sides. lie is young
yet, but will no doubt develop into one of
the best twirlers on the coast. He relied
yesterday on speed for effectiveness, and
the way he shot the ball across the plate
kept Spies constantly on the lookout to
stop it. There was no limit to his speed,
and Sacramento's big catcher was receiv
ing balls about as hot as he cared to ham
de- Baltz pitched what can always be
relied upon as winning ball, with the
proper Kind Of support. His only fail
ing is lack Of control, and he will over
come this only by constant practice.
When he cares to use them he can throw
curves that are puzzlers, and will make
any batsman hustle to gauge them. In
yesterdays game he struck out some Of
the best batters in the Oakland team, and
did some effective work himself with the
bat.
Stapleton, the other new Sacramento
pitcher, played at third base. He is quite
slight-about the same weight as Peoples,
but appears to be lively ball-player,
and will no doubt prove good addition
to the team.
Oakland could not gain run until the
eighth inning. Youngman knocked out
a three-bagger and Stephens took first
base on balls. A hit by Cahill and an
error of Peoples scored the two men.
One more run was added to the Oak
land score in the ninth inning. O'Neill
and Cantillion walked" to first base,
and the former scored on a sacrifice
grounder knocked by Stephens to Nc
Guirk.
The Sacramentos scored one run in the
first inning, Peoples knocking out two
Dagger and being scored by hit of Sun
days. In the fifth inning Works lined
out hit, and McGuirk's three -bagger
scored him. Subsequently McGuirk
knocked to Long by McCloskey.
In the seventh inning, SUNDAYS two
bagger, McCloskey's hit and errors by
Stephens and Cahill added three more
runs to the home teams score. Again in
their eighth turn to the bat the Sacra-
mentos made runs. Hits by Raltz, Works
and McCloskey and an error made by
Cantillion did the business.
The score stood 9 to in favor of the
SacramentoS.
The features of the game We're q fine
throw to the plate by Sunday and three
excellent double plays.
Sheridan umpired the game, and there
was no attempt at disputing his de-
clSlOns. Following is the score:

Which Class of Institutions Should
Be Encouraged?
PARTIES Who Wish to Establish wooIen
Mills and an Iron Fence
Mandatory Here.

There is just now promising outlook
1or Sacramento to have a woolen mill
established in her midst. L. Walker, a
practical manufacturer and gentle
1nan who has for many years been
identified with the wool interests OF the
State, was in the city yesterday looking
over the ground with view to erecting
&! mill here.
Mr.. Walker is the man who erected a
$4,000 mill at Woodland, but there are
local dissensions there, he says, which
prevent citizens from taking hold and
helping along the enterprise. He has
long been satisfied that Sacramento is the
proper place sfor woolen mill, and has
determined to establish plant here. To
RECoRD-UNIoN reporter Mr.. Walker
Eaid:
81 am sure that Sacramento is the place
for woolen mill, and that one run on
practical business principles will pay
from the start. The reason that enter
prises of this kind occasionally fail is
That the persons managing them don't
understand their business. No industry
can be built up that has TO support high
salaried Presidents, and Managers, and
Secretaries, unless there is immense capi-
their business grows.

Woodland almost entirely with my own
hands, paying for as little expert work

Directors, a high-priced Manager or

any thing about the business, and all that
sort Of thing. believe in beginning on
a moderate scale, and increase the plant
Rs the business re1uires-juSt as was
done in Napa, where the original plant
has been trebled.
Il viii put up a mill here at light ex-
,Oense-the whole proposition will not
INVOLVE moro than $50, ,000-and pll see
That it is run economically and on strictly
business principles. / want to meet some
of the leading citizens of your city and
ay my plans before them. Owing to
ocal iealousies in Woodland, those who
we're to have taken hold Of the enterprise
with me have failed to do so. The oppor-
Gunity is a good one for Sacramento to
get a wooden mill, and / think it can be
made mutually advantageous to the city
and myself
Mr.. Walker spent yesterday afternoon
n consultation with several leading citi-
zens on the subject, and said he would
return in a few days to further consider
Dhe matter.
