Murphy addressed an immense audience
at Roslyn tonight, and large number of
pledges were secured. He will remain

dealers was begun same weeks ago by the
Women's Christian Temperance Union,
and has been vigorously pushed. Several
saloonists have been arrested for violation
of the Sunday law, and the cases are now
pending IN the superior court. The saloon
men have pooled against the movement,
and fund will be expended in fighting
the issue. The better element in the city
are very much disgusted with the arbi-
trary and questionable measures that have
been inaugurated by the liquor dealers to
defeat the purposes of the Women's Chris

Indian Murderer's Trial at whatcom.

WHATcoM, March Especial. The de-
fense in the trial of George Swiloos, or
Placer, opened its case today The line of
defense was in the nature of an alibi, with
an attempt to throw the crime upon the
young Indian, Henry Williams. An
Indian interpreter was used upon most of
the principal witnesses. The witnesses
examined swore that Placer was not on
the railroad at the place of the murder,
but left it previously and walked by him
self for more than mile upon the beach
toward the village of Lummi; that he was
very drunk and lay down on the beach to
sleep and was awakened by the witness.
The young Indian was not with him.
Other witnesses swore that the watch be-
longing to the murdered man was in the
possession of Henry Williams and that he
hid 1t himself, all of which contradicts the
testimony of Williams. The defendant
will be placed on the stand tomorrow,
when there will probably be some import
ant developments. Many of the witnesses
could not speak English. and the Chinook
Jargon was unsatisfactory to either party,
hence an Indian interpreter was secured.
The defense is certainly ingenious and has
astonlshed the prosecution.

GINSBERG RESISTED.
Captain Bradley Finds the J-Street
Cigar Dealer a Tartar.
Arrested for Selling Lottery Tickets
GtnSberg Drew a Revolver On
the Captain.

Police Captain Bradley created another
sensation last evening.
1t had been reported to him that Sam
Ginsberg, the eX-baseball magnate and
cigar dealer on j street, near Second, was
selling lottery tickets. Much as the Cap
tain disliked to believe this he decided to
investigate. He experimental with sew
eral Sacramentans but they declined to
purchase ticket with the police depart
ment's dollar and assist in the expose.
But finally the Captain induced man
from Elmira to make the purchase. The
Captain stood across the street and
| watched-and when he saw Sam opening
little drawer back of the counter he
came nearer and watched harder He
says he saw lottery ticket produced
At any rate he bolted for the store and
grabbed for the ticket Ginsberg saw
him coming and grabbed, too. Sam was
| the quicker and in a second the Captain
| saw no lottery ticket.
Then the Captain got mad. he jumped
over the counter and began searching for
the missing evidence. Ginsberg pro-
tested that the officer had no right in
there without a warrant.
A crowd gathered, and the Captain got
little madden, having not yet found the
ticket. Then he and Ginsberg clinched
Both tugged at each others throats, and
Sam pulled out handful OF the CaDtain's
luXuriant wind-breaks.
According to Captain Bradley's story,
| Sam became blood-thirsty after he had
pulled the whiskers. He rushed to his
desk, says the Captain, and producing a
pistol therefrom aimed it at the Cap
tain's left ear, and threatened to fire if
the intruder did not get out.
Then friends of Ginsberg's interfered
and persuaded him to put the pistol
away. The Captain then took Sam to the
police station and charged him with SELL
ing lottery tickets.
"Whats the bail ?" asked Sam.
lone hundred, cash." replied the Cap
tain.
The ex-baseball manager produced the
coin and started to depart. But the Cap
tain overhauled him and arrested him
again.
"What for ?" asked Sam.
Assault with deadly weapon"
''What's the bail P"
''Five hundred, CASH.
Ginsberg did not have this much with
him, and sent a friend out for it.
In the meantime the Captain searched
Sam, in hope of finding the missing lot
terry ticket. The prisoner objected siren
uously, but had to submit But the
ticket was not found
The bail arrived soon and Ginsberg was
allowed to depart. He saws he will make
things lively for the Captain, declaring
that the latter had no right to enter his
place and rummage around back of the
counter without search warrant.

WORLDS FAIR.
The Sacramento County Association
Making Preparations.
A Good Showing at the State Fair
Space for the County at Chicago
Other Matters.

The Sacramento County Worlds Fair
Association met yesterday in the Super
visors' chamber, George o. Bates presid-
ing.
Erskin Greer, Chairman of the Execu-
tive Committee, reported that A. a. Krun
had been employed to canvass the county
for fruits, grasses, etc., as portion Of the
Worlds Fair exhibit. Mr.. Krull had
reported that he has collected large
amount of articles. The committee has
been handicapped by lack of funds, but
the Supervisors had appropriated $4,000,
however, and the committee feels greatly
encouraged, will proceed with tho work,
and make a good showing both at the
State and Worlds Fair.
David Reese of the committee ap-
pointed to see to the transplanting OF
trees and vines for the fair, said he had
been unable to get his committee together,
and besides, he considered that it was
too late now to do any transplanting.
Secretary w. w. Greer said he had re-
ceived communication from Secretary
THOMPSON of the State Commission, ask
ing how much space Sacramento would
require at the Worlds Fair, and asking
for a partial list of exhibitors.
d. Lubin said he met Secretary Thomp-
son few days ago and asked him in
reference to space. MIR. Thompson said
the Sacramento Association should, as
soon as possible, designate how much
space will be required. Continuing, Mr..
Lubin said a question had arisen as to
whether or not the $1,000 appropriated by
the Supervisors could be used in arrang-
ing the State Fair display. He said that
II the money is so expended, a consider
able sum will be used in procuring per-
ishable fruit which will never reach the
Worlds Fair. The appropriation was
made for the Worlds Fair, and the Audit
ing Committee should not pay for per-
ishable material. If care was not eAer-
cised, there was likely to be shortage of
funds, which would be difficult to ex-
plain.
Chairman Bates gave it as his opinion
that it made no differende whether the
money was used for the Worlds Fair or
State Fair.
Supervisor Greer said there would be
no danger of getting into trouble. The
Supervisors would supply money enough
for the shelving. etc., at the State Fair, so
as to accommodate the Worlds Fair eX-
hibit. Mr.. Greer said the two commit
tees should work hand in hand, and he
moved that the Executive Committee of
the Worlds Fair Association be increased
TO twelve member, the Changers being
given equal representation. The motion
prevailed, and the President named as
new members of the Executive Commit
tee the following: George C. McMullen.
David Reese, Mrs. William Johnston,
Mrs. Moore, Daniel Flint and Mrs. jack
man.
Messrs. KruIl, Jackman and McMul-
len were appointed committee to secure
a display of Sacramento County building
material-stone, lumber, brick, etc.
1t was decided to leave the matter of
space for the Worlds Fair with the Ex-
ecutive Committee.
The association then adjourned to meet
again on the second Tuesday in August.
