4 Tuneful FOrger Landed Behind
the Bars.
Arrest Of Harry Ka,iskey for sw:ndling
Friends" With Plausible and Even
Patheticauy Worded Appeals

A rather seedy-looking fellow with a big
brown mustache was led into the City
Prison yesterday by Officer Anthony. he
was searched at the sergeants desk and
several pawntickets and a nickel were the
extent of his possessions. lie gave tie
name Harry Kaliskey, and after two
charges Of forgery were recorded against
him was slowed away In a cell.
For several weeks haliskey has been
fleeing acquaintances and others by means
Of forged orders. He would send a note,
to which he would forge the signature OF
friend of the receiver, and patiently wait
around the corner until the messenger
returned with the money requested. He
once played a piano or some other instru-
ment Of torture in a dive and has passed as
q musician ever since.
On Monday he dispatched a note TO
"Friend Baruch," a Grant-aYenue tailor,
TO which he attached the forged signature Of
Henry Diering, a musician and friend Of
Baruch.
BARUCH GAVE Up $50.
Il was such q plausible story that Baruch
parted with a golden twenty. The appeal
wound up with a bar Of music and Baruch
lost no time in sending the messenger back
with the money. The plea Of the swindler
was:
FTieud B1ruch: Please send with messenger
boy $50. # you can possibly spare il. / got my
self 10 trouble 10 a little woman affair, and you
would Oblige me ever so much il you do this
favor for me-. VIII return 10 10 you next pay
day. Henry DIERIHG.
Please destroy this.
The little woman subterfuge worked so
well that Kaliskey lost no HmP in sending
the following to Friend GOley," the keeper
Of a saloon at Grant avenue and OFaTrell
street:
Frieud Goley: Please send with messenger
boy $40 II you can spare &c until tomorrow
morning. ! am upstairs on a spree with a woman,
aud AM LITTLE short, and Obllge BARUCH.
Please des roy after reading.
SECOND CONTRIBUTION.
Goley recognized the signature Of his
friend, OF thought he did and readily con-
lributed another twenty to Kalskey's
pocket.
When both discovered that they had been
duped they reported the matter to the
police, with the result that the fOTgeT was
speedily landed behind prison bars
Il don't want my name put In the
papers," said the prisoner when questioned
by CALL reporter, 'as / soon expect 10
get out on bonds. / am a musician, but not
a member Of the union, and that is why ]
can't always get work. My father was here
10 see me, and he promises 20 fix the case
for me, and that's why l don't want any
thing said about It."

He Is to Succeed Bishop Vladimir and
Is His Way Here.
From 60 ID authority it is learned that
Bishop Nicholas of the Russian Churcn,
lately ordained to fill the vacancy created
by the recall of Bishop VI admir-. is on his
way here and is expected to arrive early in
March. He is accompanied by several cler-
gymen. among whom is Father Sebastian.
Father Sebastian is a native of California,
but has been abroad for the last two years.
He will be remembered as the eloquent
speaker whose sermons at the Russian
Church of this city were the delight of all
hearers. He is a young man, born and
raised in California. yet Is as thoroughly
cOnyersant in the Russian and Servan dia-
lects of the SlavOn ian language as IN Eng
fish, his native tongue. His return is eagerly
looked for by the Russian, Slovenian and
Greek people of this city and State and by
many others. Most of the present clergy
men Of the church will, of necessity, be re-
moved to make room for those accompany
ing the new Bishop.

Henry Casanova, who was one of the
most prominent members of the Italian col
Ony and who at his death was President of
the Italian Chamber of Commerce and a
member of the firm of +. Daneri IL Co., left
an estate valued at about 100000. OF this
amount $4,000 was bequeathed to various
relatives and theresldue to the only brother,
Alfred Casanova of Monteyide0 in Uru-
quay, but if he should be dead it was to be
divided among a nephew, niece and cousin.
to whom legacies of $4,000 each had been
given.
Wilson & Bert, attorneys for The nephew.
referred to have ascertained that Alfred
Casanova left this city twenty years ago to
go by sea to MOnteyideo and has not been
heard OF since.
They reported their failure to find him to
Judge COffey yesterday, and lie decided that
the lost heir is civilly dead and that the es-
tate should be divided among the other rela-

He Could Not Stand Success, so He Com
promised.
Several months since the Government
brought suit against the Sierra Lumber
Company to recover $2,2l7, 254 90 and when
tried i'll the United States Circuit Court
recovered judgment for Sal. 900 damages and
5000 90 costs, but this large amount seems
to have driven the Government insane, for
Judge Sawyer said the verdict was for too
large a sum.
Judge Hawlev said yesterday that it was
too large. and Attorney General Miller III.
structed Special Counsel James W. Oates OF
Santa Rosa TO effect a compromise. VI
course the Sierra Lumber Company, under
the circumstances, was, like Barks, willing,
and ventured to suggest $4,000 as Inquire
the Government might be prevailed upon 10
accept without bluShing.
When the matter was called up yesterday
Oates said il had been compromised, but ala
not state at what figure, presumably at the
$4,000 suggested. The case was then dis
missed. The suit was originally brought to
recover damages for timber cut in Tehama
and Butte counties from October. 1878, to
the same month 1890.

ALONG THE RAIL.
Opening Of n Large Tract or Land for

Opening Of n Large Tract or Land for
Settlement.
The newly advanced idea of c. p Hun
tingtOn to break up the large land holdings
of the State gives promise Of bearing fruit
at an early day, and negotiations are already
under way to carry his plans into effect.
Aside from tie 10000 acres in Northern
California which have been spoken of there
is now proposition being considered to
purchase 5000 in the San Joaquin Valley.
The latter tract is In the hands Of one man,
and he has made an offer TO tranfer it to the
Southern Pacific for a reasonable price. Ii
is probable, therefore. that when Mr.. Hun
tngton arrives here in short time the deal
will be closed and the laud offered on easy
terms to settlers who desire few acres for
a home.
Said w. II. Mills yesterday in discussing
the situation: THE great drawback to the
development of California hitherto has
been the retention by individuals of enor-
nous tracts of land. We think this can DO
broken up by the plan proposed, and IL will
be attempted in short time. As il now
stands, for instance. one man owns the 5000
acres which have been offered TO us for
sale, and It lies there comparatively unOc-
cupied. BY subdviding it into small farms
Of twenty acres each we can make room for
450 families, and add just that much to the
iOpuldLtON anu producing power oil the
State. At the same time the railroad will
benefit in two ways. 1t will make some
little money out Of the transaction directly,
or hopes to at least and will at the same
time make business for its lines"
Again the TumOr has been revived about
contemplated changes in the local service
in Oakland. and this time it is to the effect
that an electric road will be substituted for
the present system. AS the matter now
stands the railroad officials are extremely
retlcent and are inclined to look wise and
say but little.
General Superintendent Fillmore in dis
cussng the situation said: Nothing will
be done until Mr.. Huntington arrives here,
about the middle of March, and what will
occur then 1t is difficult now to say. You
may be assured, however, that great deal
of attention will be paid TO Oakland, and
some changes will probably be made"

that the weapon went off in some ones
