made their arguments. These resulted
IN some very pointed accusations be-
tween Grove l.. Johnson for the defense
on one hand and District Attorney Ryan
aud Alvin j. Bruner on the other.
The closing argument of the District
Attorney was one of his ablest efforts.
He openly declared that perjury had
been committed on the witness-stand,
and named those whom he believed to
have sworn falsely.
The case was given to the jury at late
hour in the afternoon, and at II p. NJ. the
jurors were discharged, they being posi-
tive they could not agree. 1t is under
stood that there were four for conviction
and eight for acquittal.

HARMONIOUS REPUBLICANS.
Temporary Organization Of the Ma
tiOnaI Campaign Club.
n Harmonious Meeting on Saturday
EYeninG-Committee Appointed
on Permanent Organization.

There was meeting of Republicans at
the Courthouse on Saturday evening,
the object being to reorganize the Ma
tional Republican Club of Sacramento.
This is the organization which started
out shortly before the late municipal
election and which got into trouble
through an attempt to pledge the mem
bers to vote for every Republican city
candidate, as well as to adhere 10 the
principles and nominees of the national
party.
Joseph Steifens called the meeting to
order. He said he supposed all were
familiar with the former action taken by
the organization. At the last meeting, he
said, there was heated discussion as to
whether or not the pledge proposed by
the State Central Committee bound Re-
publicans to support the municipal can
didates of the party. The Chair at that
time ruled that the pledge did not in
clude municipal candidates. An appeal
was taken from the decision and for
Warded to the State Central Committee.
MI. Stetfens said the committee had rem
dered a decision as follows:
In the matter of the appeal to the Republi
can STATE Central Committee 0y members of
the National Republican Club of Sacramento
as to the meaning Of the test of membership
recon- mended by this committee the PrCSi-
dent OF said club having decided that the test
only bound the members to the support of the
National Republican ticket tue Executive
Committee find that the President correctly
interpreted the language of the test. The com
mlttee, however, does not assume that a club
organized under its recommendation must
necessarily be confined to the test embraced
therein. On the contrary, the clubs are at
liberty to apply amy further test that may
commend Itself 10 the wisdom and judgment
of the membership and not inconsistent with
the general principles of the Republican
party.
L. r. Dray thought that as the munich
pal contest was over there would be no
need Of taking any such pledges at this
time. He thought the club should organ
iZe first under the original pledge Ito
support the principles and nominees of
the national Republican party" and any
further pledges could be considered alter
ward.
This idea struck the others present
quite favorably, and a motion that such
course be pursued was carried,
On motion Of Mr.. Dray, it was then de-
cided that the club proceed to oroaniZe
temporarily, and Ed +. TAYLOR was
elected temporary Chairman and u. +,
Wharton was chosen TEMPORARY Secre-
tary.
On motion of w. J. Davis. the Chair
man was authorized to select Commit
tee on Permanent Organization, this com
mittee to be appointed at his leisure. and
to report at a meeting TO be held after the
convention at Minneapolis.
There being no further business to
transact an adjournment was taken.

that the number Oh the train at Albuduer-

CRUELTY TO DUMB CREATURES.

Cockpit.

Secretary Lawton of the Humane So
ciety of this county was informed the
other day that butcher named John
Elliott, doing business at Franklin, was
in the habit of treating calves in such
brutal manner as to not only cause them
great pain but also to render their flesh
unfit for food. He has therefore adj
dressed the following notice to the ac-
cused, preterring to give him-and all
others-fair warning before making a.
rests:
SACRAMENTO, May II, 1892.
John Elliott Esq, Frdn5itn-DEAR SIR: 1t
has been reported to the Sacramento County
Humane Society that you are in the habit of
carrying large loads of calves tied by the legs
and placing them in your shop, and leaving
them tied by the legs for several hours at q
time.
The person giving the information did so
with the request that we make no arrest, but
that We notify you that if the OfIense is again
reported to this society, the case Will be placed
in the hands Of an officer and the attorneys of
the society.
oW nol9 qedrs we hand you sep Of the State
Secretary of the SacI amento County Humane
Society.
Calves are sometimes thrown into
wagons i'll the country two or three deep,
the bottom ones often being nearly
for the shop. Every intelligent person
knows that such meat is teverish and
not fit for food. If people should refuse
to purchase veal from butchers who pur-
sue these methods perhaps the latter
might find it to their pecuniary intere st
to treat dumb brutes with more consid-
Grafton.
The law provides that the singular
shall include the plural-that the word
animal" shall be held to include every
living dumb creature; the words tor
ture," torment" and cruelty shall be
held to include every act, omission, or
neglect whereby unnecessary or unjusti-
fable physical pain or suffering is
caused or permitted, and the words
''Owner" and ''person" shah be held to
include corporations as we'll as individu-
ais; and the knowledge and acts of
agents of and persons employed by cor
porations in regard to animals trans
ported, owned or employed by, or in
the custody of such corporations shall be
held to be the act and knowledge of such
corporations as well as such agent or en-

WARRINGTON, Sept 1o.-Statistics Of
the immigration into eiUnited States
for the month Of August last have just
been compiled. The figures ante-date
the issue Of the order restricting immi-
grafton from infected European ports,
but are interesting rs showing what
might have been expected during the
current month II no check had been In
terposed on the influx. There were 49,
479 immigrants landed In the month.
Those were almost exactly the figures
Of the previous year Thirty-ave thou
sand Of them came by way Of New York,
1000 through Boston, $500 through
Baltimore and $500 through Philadel-
phia. Germany contributed 10000 Of
them and Russia 5000 more. In other
words, II immigration had not been
practically suspended there would have
been $4,000 immigrants from cholera
suspected districts shipped to the United
States in the month Of September.
During the month Of August, 1891,
our exports exceeded our imports &c.
732, 900; during the corresponding month
last year the balance runs the other
way, our imports exceeding our exports
by sl2, 1852, ,OOO. On the eighth month.
ending Aug. 81, we still have balance
in our favor Of exports over imports of
nearly $4,000, 900.
The treasury receipts for the half
month of September have not been per-
ceptibly diminished by the cholera cpl
demic in Europe or by the enforced
quarantine at New York Treasury
officials will not state what course they
will take In refunding duties assessed
upon goods which must necessarily be
damaged by fumigation and disinfec-
ton. So far this month the receipts
from customs have been $1,000, 900,
keeping up fully with the receipts Of
August, which is regarded as the larg-
est importing month in the calendar
year.
