PAT POWERS TROUBLES.
He Hasn't Had His Own Way With the
New York Bail Team,

NEW YORK, June e6.-[SpenaL 1.-The po-
sition of Manager Pat Powers in connection
with the New York League Baseball Club is
particularly trying at this moment. Had
he been allowed to carry out his own ideas
early in the season, there is every reason 10
believe that the local team would occupy a
much better position than it is now enjoy
ing. However. he did not have his own way,
but he now comes out with an announce
ment stating that complete managerial
powers have been conferred upon him ut
this stage Of the game, and he will endeavor
to reconstruct the team. He assumes a
large responsibility at a, very late day, and
in his work has the we'll wishes OF every
one. Should he be successful in this second
series of games, Sir Patrick will rival Adrian
Anson OF Chicago, who enjoys the dis
tinction OF being the best manager Of q
baseball club in the country.
Captain johnnie Ward. of the BROOKLYN
Baseball Club, will win considerable money
on the result of the first baseball series. He
made number of wagers with New Workers
before the season opened, betting that the
Brooklyns would beat the Giants in per-
centag.s. So far the race is all in Brook
lyn's favor, and Ward will soon have the
pleasure of raking in II pocketful of shekels
and small package of New York clubs

ages that will accrue to our section from
the visit of olarge number of repre-
sentative newspaper men from all parts
OF the union. They will present to the
millions who read their papers, the true
merits OF our section, apd give uH such
an advertisement as money could not
buy. Their "write-ups" will be of in
calculable value, and result in establish
ing an interest in our locality amongst
people all over the United States, who
otherwise would never have given
thought to Los Angeles or Southern
California. They will be facilitated in
their task by very sensible act of pro-
vision on the part OF the Editorial asso-
citation of Southern California, who are
preparing data and statistics, in compact
form, which they can use in their cor
respondence. Our local association is
also preparing stereotypes of attractive
and striking points, the plates OF which
will be distributed amongst the dele
gates. The only mistake we can make
in the courtesies extended to these
gentlemen, is to underestimate thevalue
of their visit.

transcontinental railway, which will
open up to us the rich coal and iron
fields of Southwestern Utah and Ne
vada, and territory exceptionally rich
in the precious metals. This city once
enjoyed very remunerative trade with
Salt Lake City before the days of the
Union and Pacific railways, AID the
building of this road, of which the Ter
minal is the dydnt courier, will restore
and multiply our relations with that re-
gion. Our facilities for a great COM
merce are being improved every day, and
San Pedro, Redondo and Santa Monica,
on the ocean, will see their business
steadily incease. Under the operation
OF the Wright law new irrigation dis
tricts are being formed, and water is be.
ing developed all over Southern Cali
fornia. The acreage in orchard and
vineyard is being expanded at a gratiiy-
ing rate. Diversified farming has be-
come popular, and will result in great
variety oil products for which remuner-
ative prices can be readily obtained.
In every direction the prospects are OF
the brightest. The effect of the short
crop of the citrus fruits, resulting from
the north winds and the frosts, have
been already discounted. The promise
OF an enormous crop OF oranges for this
year never were better. We shall pro-
duce an abundance of grain for our own
consumption.
In fine, the outlook has never been
more reassuring. On the 18th of June
the lowered traffic schedule of the Santa
Fe railway from the Missouri and
Mississippi rivers and from Chica 20
will go into effect, and will result in an
enormous immigration to Southern Cali
fornia. The dickey birds say to those
who can use their eyes and ears that,
considering the low price of real estate
in Los Angeles city and county just now,
this is the time in which to turn the
nimble sixpence by investments in
property. A sure and almost immedi-
ate profit is certain to result from such
employment of capital.

Several Native Sons from Napa Identif fy

as LawIess Character.
Liable to Hang.

Under Sheriff E. d. Perkins, of Fair
field. Solano county, arrived here yes.
terday to take look at Detective Bow
ler's prisoner supposed to be one of the
murderers of Watchman Howard, in
Rio Vista last January. He at once
identified the prisoner, when he saw the
young fellow.
After the interview with the prisoner
the officer said that the man captured
was undoubtedly Robert Lee Horrell,
and that in Fairfield there is abundant
evidence to prove that the young fellow
now in the city Jail is the very one of
the safe breakers who did the fatal
shooting.
One of Horrell's pals, George Friedell,
has already been tried and convicted, i,
and, as an accessory, received a life
sentence, which he is now serving.
Under these conditions, young Horrell,
who is not yet OF age, is candidate for
the gallows.
The third man of the safe crackers,
Williamson, alias Frisco Slim, alias
Boston Slim, is still at large.
During yesterday three of the Native
Son delegates from Napa county went
to the city Jail and positively identified
the prisoner rs Lee Horrell. They
were the Messrs. Myers, Earle and
Geseford. The last named is district
attorney in Napa county and stated
that Horrell had been convicted
of three cases of arson. but has been sent
to the Boys and Girls Aid society in
San Francisco, instead of to the REFORM
atory or penitentiary. Mr.. Myers said
that he caught Horrell in the act of
shooting Chinsman upon certain oc.
casion, and that he had interfered just
in time to save the Celestial's life.
For the capture of Horrell and Will
Hanson the sheriff OF Solano had offered
a reward of $50 and the governor OF the
state had added another offer of $500.
That would mean 5000 each, and De-
tective Bowler ought certainly to receive
that amount.
Sheriff Perkins will leave for Fairfield
with his prisoner today.

JUDGE Ross has put quietus to the
question whether railroads have the
right, under the interstate commerce
act. to give discriminative rates to ter
minal points. The law as interpreted
by him is consistent with the principles
that govern the relations Of commerce
to all common carriers. Terminal
points are established at great dis
tributing centers, where the volume of
business justifies the reduction of rates.
The natural business law which governs
wholesale and retail prices necessarily
obtains in transportation as well as in
commercial transactions. Los Angeles
is competing point, and the railroads
must take this fact into consideration
when they make up their schedule of
rates. Whilst we have the ocean as our
highway the railroads must concede US
the advantage OF our competing situa-
tion

We learn from Mr.. Kercheval that
there is good reason to believe that the
red scale parasite colonized on his place
is exhibiting hopeful signs OF successful
naturalization. The first lot received
from Mr. Koebele arrived in poor condi-
tion, and the weather was so unfavor-
able when they were received here that
it is not believed any Of them survived.
But the recent lot have done much bet
ter and it is believed from the present
signs that they have become acclim-
ated and will thrive and reproduce. If
we can succeed in naturalizing this par
asite and it attacks the red scale here as
in Australia, it will prove great boon
to our orange-growera. What the ve-
dalia has been to the white scale, this
will prove to the red pest, and the re-
suit will be to clear our orchards of the
two most destructive enemies that have
ever infested them.

SAN BERNARDINo, April 25.--The
county Republican convention, to elect
delegates to the state convention
at Sacramento, will be held at Cotton
today.
The Democratic county central COM
mittee met at the court house last Sat-
urday to arrange for the appointment of
delegates to the state convention at
Fresno. A large number of Democrats,
outside Of the regular committee, was
present, and decided interest was mani
tested. Primaries for the election OF
delegates were unanimously decided
upon, end next Saturday was selected
as the date of election.
The foundation for the new $4,000
county Jail is now in and the walls are
going up. Yesterday workmen were
engaged in placing steel cells in position.
Excavations for the foundation for the
$3.50 900 court house are completed and
work on masonry will soon commence.
The missionary society OF the congre-
gational church has organized free
school for Chinese in this city, at the
corner of G and Third streets. Miss
Gohr will be teacher. with ASSISTANTS.
Today the Odd Fellows will hold q
grand celebration, in commemoration of
the seventy-third anniversary of the
order. A procession will be held at l
O'Clock, followed by exercises at the
pavilion, to conclude with grand ball
tonight. Gen. William III. Barnes of
San Francisco is orator OF the day.
J. w. Salterwhite, prominent young
lawyer of this city, has been appointed
secretary of the Democratic central COM
| mittee.
The Courier Office has organized
baseball club, and last Sunday met the
Livingston club on the diamond. The
game was enthusiastic, but from the
grand stand seemed tame, as the Living

Courier team will practice up before
venturing another game.

TIE National Editorial association
will reach here on the evening OF the
18th OF May, and remain over to the
10Th. The incomplete list OF delegates
already received here, embraces over
450 names. 1t will probably reach,
when completed. between six and seven
hundred, and with the ladies who will
accompany the delegates, eight hundred
persons will participate in the excur-

important body OF visitors, met yester-

WHEN the financial accounts of the
nation are made public next July, and
the people find that the party in power
has converted a surplus of 100000, 900
into deficiency of perhaps half that
amount, the Republican orators will be
confronted with problem they will find
difficult to deal with on the stump.
They may bamboozle the shallow
Drained with euphemisms on the tariff,
and pretend to show that a prohibitive
tariff on foreign wool enables the Ameri-
can manufacturer to furnish cheaper
cloth than can be made abroad; but it
will be utterly impossible for them to
show that deficit is a surplus, or that
it is better for the people to owe one
hundred millions with an empty treas
ury than to have one hundred millions
in the cash box and no outstanding
debts against it. That will be the di.
iemma that will present itself to the Re-
publican orators next fall, and it will
cut a much wider swath in the votes
they count upon to get from the people
than they now anticipate. The fiscal
reports will be studied very closely this
year, and the Democratic leaders will
find in them ammunition for the CAM
paign OF more than dynamite power.
