A SURPRISED MILKMAN.

plained-What the Police
Say of the Matter,

A milkman was driving down Spring
street early the other morning, when he
was surprised to see coat come sailing
out of second story window of fash
ionable looking house. 1t was followed
by vest, then pair of pants landed or
'thelsidewalk, followed by the emphatic
thud of pair of shoes. The milkman
stopped to see If the person, to whom
the clothes belonged, would follow on
the same route, but, as no owner ap.
peared, he gathered them up and
gave them to policeman. They
were taken to the police station, where,
on examination, the contents of the
pocket showed that they belonged to o

longings, but failed to explain how his
clothes happened to be hung up on the
sidewalk in the manner described. II
is said in police circles that the clothes
were thrown out by an angry husband,
who objected to the young mans pres
ence, and that there is reason to believe
that the young fellow narrowly missed 9
bullet as he fled en- dishabille. The end
is not yet, apparently, as several in
quiries were made yesterday about the
matter at the police station.

Arrival of the Conemaugh-Local Hap
penings.
REDONDo BEACH, Oct. 1.-THE steam
ship Conemaugh, of the Atlantic and
Pacific steamship line, cast anchor here
today at 8 O'Clock, and will await the
arrival of customs officers before pro-
ceeding to discharge her large consign-
ment for this port. From a view of the
Conemaugh as she lies at anchorage, q
looker-on would suppose her tonnage
and displacement were greater than that
OF the Progreso, the pioneer steamship
of that line, which left this port lately
on her return trip to New York. The
steamships Indiana and Mineola are the
followers, respectively, of the Cone
maugh on the route from New York, via
the Horn, stopping at Redondo, en- route
to San Francisco.
The steamship Corona, from the south
came to her berth at IL 80 p. M, today,
landing 13 passengers, and got away for
the north at 2 p. M, shipping 26 tons of
merchandise and "a passengers for San
Francisco.
An old.fashioned, down east fishing
bee is announced for next Sunday at
Redondo, under the auspices of H. D.
Watson, of the Redondo pavilion.
Preparations have been made to accom-
modate the sportive Nimrods from the
interior, both on the wharf and outeide.
Several hundred dollars and other prizes
will be awarded to the winners. The
wharf will be cleared and devoted to the
fishing bee. The only requirem mt
necessary to enter the contest for prizes
will be the purchase of round-trip
ticket from Los Angeles. or any interior
point, to Redondo. Thus Angelenos
will need have no fear of the Redondo
experts.

REPUBLICAN CATsPAws.

POstmasters Made Part Of the Great
Political Machine
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE United
States civil service commission today
made public statement about blank
booK, purporting to have been sent out
by the Republican state committee to
the postmaster at Withey, Mich,
brought to their attention. It requests
the postmaster to furnish canvass of
the patrons of his Office, with informa.
ton as to their former and present pol
itics and as to the papers they take. to-
gether with recommendations as to
what papers should be sent them.
The postmaster is further informed
that he is expected to consult the promi-
nent Republicans of his locality as to the
work, but keep his labors from becom-
ing public.
The statement says the commission
has also received information that re-
quests of this kind have been made by
political committees, not only in Michi-
gan, but elsewhere.
"Services of the kind requested, !"
says the statement, s'are clearly poll
tical services, and to render them is
contrary to the postal regulations.
With this, however, the commission
has nothing to do, but it
feels in duty bound to inform
all postmasters and all other public en-
ployes in Michigan or elsewhere, that
the civil service law expressly provides
that no person in the public service is
under any obligation to render any po-
litical service"

A Horrible Crime Perpetrated by
Gardener In Glasgow.

A Horrible Crime Perpetrated by n
Gardener In Glasgow.
GLASGOW, Oct. 11.-While workmen
were digging in the garden of resi-
dence in the most fashionable quarter of
the city, they discovered a corpse,
dismembered and disemboweled. 1t
proved to be the body of a
woman between 30 and 40 years OF
age. The family occupying the house
were absent, and young gardener
named McEwen was left in charge. The
police Immediately sought him
but he was not to be found.
The body was slashed and ripped
in manner which revealed
the horrible work Jack the Ripper per-
formed on the bodies of the wretched
women who met their fate at his hands.
The only information 80 far cleaned is
to the effect that McEwen was in the
habit of receiving women in the
house during the absence of the
family. After the discovery the
garden was thoroughly searched, and
pieces of the body were found in four
different holes in the garden, and it is
thought further search will reveal all
the missing parts. An inspection OF
McEwen's bedroom showed evidence OF
terrible struggle. 1t was in
great disorder. The floor, walls, ceiling
and bed were spattered with clotted
blood. Detectives and others interested
in the case are of the opinion that the
woman was killed with an ak.

TENNYSON'S REMAINS.
THE POETS BODY MOVED TO WEST
MINIS TER ABBEY.
Robert T. Lincoln's Name Heads the
List of PAIL b Bearers-No Hesrse
Used to Convey the Casket
to It's Resting Place.

LONDON, Oct. 11.-Lord Salisbury will
be one of the pall-bearers at Lord Ten
nyson's funeral in Westminster abbey
tomorrow. The official list of pail
bearers is headed with the name of Hon.
Robert 7. Lincoln, American minister.
with the explanation that Henry White,
secretary of the American legation,
will represent him. The list include 8
besides Lord Salisbury, Very Rev.
Henry Montague Butler and Sir James
Paget. When living, Lord Tennyson ex-
pressed an aversion for hearses, and to-
day, when his body was removed from
Aldworth, the coffin was carried from
the house by his old servants and
placed in the small casket waiting to
receive it. The relatives then formed
in procession behind it, and started
for Haslemere station. Owing to the
ignorance of the public as to the time
the train would arrive in London, only
few persons we're gathered in Waterloo
station when the cars rolled in, and
thus crush was avoided. The coffin
was at once removed from the car, and
without ostentation of any kind, placed
on an ordinary van; and in this homely
conveyance quietly borne to Westmin-
ster abbey. A large number of persons
had gathered about the entrance
to the abbey, and it was with
difficulty that the policemen detailed
for duty there, succeeded in forming a
passage for those selected to carry the
coffin from the van to St. Faiths
chapel, where the body will
remain until the funeral takes place
tomorrow. Canon Duckworth and others
received the mourners and gave direc-
tions for the arrangement of the coffin.
Mrs. Hallam Tennyson placed hand
some floral wreath on the coffin. Can
on Duckworth offered brief prayer,
and the simple ceremony ended.

LocHINvAR SWAIN ARRESTED.

He and His Would-Be Bride Taken
Home.
Constable Miller, of Ventura, appeared
in the city yesterday afternoon and
gathered in youth of % summers
named Erwin Swain. The officer had O
warrant for the aforesaid Swain, charg.
ing him with misdemeanor. Mr.. Swain
was taken to the police station and
locked up.
1t seems that Mr.. Swain became en-
amored of young lady at Ventura the
other day, and her parents did not view
the fact with pleasure. The young lady
was quite we'll pleased with the atten-
tions of Swain. He finally persuaded
her to run away, and the couple came to
this city.
The angry parents dispatched Consta-
BILE Miller to Los Angeles with warrant
for Mr.. Swain's arrest. The constable
arrived yesterday and found Mr.. Swain,
and placed him in hoe until the train
departed for Ventura. When it did
leave it bore the constable, Mr.. Swain
and the young lady.

California Fruit.

w. III. Mtlls's Ideas About arketing
California Fruit.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 11.-At the
monthly meeting of the State board of
trade this afternoon, w. Fl. Mills read
an address upon the distribution of
California fruit in the east, in which he
said: "The question now to be con-
sidered is that of how we can reach the
great mass Of consumers in profitable
manner to the producer and consumer.
The System of directly distributing seems
to meet the proposition. The transport
alton companies of the country stand
ready to second any improvement
which may be devised or be
sought to be applied by the consignors
of freight. Seventeen hundred carloads
Of California fruit were shipped last year
to Chicago. 1t is not to presumed that
only the people of Chicago want to eat
our fruit. The entire country wants our
fruit, and the thing is to get our fruit to
them. l would sooner have had the
legislature appropriate $1,000,000 to
send our fruit to eastern agents for dis
tribution, than to appropriate single
dollar for the Columbian exposition"
Mills closed his address with motion
that commissioner be sent to the east
to learn of better ways of distribution ,of
California fruit. Ex- Governor Perkins
suggested that the commissioner, if he
be appointed, first ascertain what the
transportation of fruit would be.
