MoNKEYED WITH THE JURY LIST.
Tho Bad Break Of Two of San Diego's
Best Citizens.

Tho Bad Break of Two of San Diego's
Best Citizens.
SAN DIEGO, May THE trial of G. R..
Dauer and Col. A. E. Cochran, charged
with having prepared list of persons
whom they desired to be impaneled by
the sheriff to try case in which Dauer
was interested, took place today, and
created great interest. The court room
was packed all day. @. R. Dauer, who
is treasurer of the county, is one of the
most popular officials in the county, and
Colonel Cochran, who was his attorney
in the case for which the jury list was
prepared, is very popular and promin-
ent attorney. There is very general
disposition to regard both men entirely
innocent of any real intent to
interfere with the course Of the law.
The act is looked upon as very i'm
prudent, but both men stand 30 high
in point of character and integrity that
very few people ascribe improper mo-
tives. Both men are very much dis.
tressed over the affair and admit the act
was iniudicious. Many witnesses were
called and arguments made by the lead
ing attorneys. Neither Mr.. Dauer nor
Colonel Cochran made any effort at con.
cealment of anything. The case was
heard by three judges in banc and taken
under advisement. A decision will be
rendered on Tuesday.

THIS MORNINGS FIRE.
The Mechanic's Mill DestrOyed-Othe
Property Damaged.

The Mechanics Mill Destroyed-Other
Property Damaged.
At 80 O'Clock this morning fire was
discovered in thelumber yard surround
ing the Mechanics mill on Vine street
between First and Second, abutting on
Alameda, numbering 119 to 135 on the
latter street. The flames spread
with lightning like rapidity. and
in less than ten minutes the
mill was doomed and the fire spread to
the Union Ice company's storehouse ad-
joining. The fire department responded
promptly to the alarm, and at the hour
OF going to press it was thought that the
Union Ice company's buildings would
be saved.
The mill was owned by the Newell
q Nicol Planning Mill company. and
was well equipped concern. The loss
will be at least $25, 900. and the insur-
ance is unknown.
The DepotlRailroad company's barn is
on Second street, close to the mill, and
the horses were all turned loose, as were
those in the ice company's barn. They
stampeded about the neighboring
streets, causing quite an excitement.

The Levees Succumbing to the
Crush of Waters.
Serious OverfiOws at KeOkuk, Ia.,
and Alexandria, Mo.
The Illinois River the Highest in Half
Century-Heavy Damages In and
About Peoria and
Ottawa.

Associated Press Dispatches
KEoKUK, Iowa, May 7.-It is now be-
lieved that as great disaster as that OF
1881 will result from the present floods
in and around Alexandria, Mo. The
unprecedented rains of the past week
have swollen the Fox, Des Moines and
Skunk rivers to such an extent that the
Egyptian levees between this place and
Alexandria broke, flooding thousands OF
acres of land, mostly wheat, and doing
great damage. Alexandria is being
rapidly submerged and the people are
preparing to go to the high lands. Stock
has been driven to the hills, but great
loss of cattle is nevertheless reported.
Business at Alexandra is at standstill, {,
and the only means of locomotion is
boats.
The view of the flooded district from
Warsaw presents picturesque sight.
The river has made the low lands back
of Alexandra great lake, upon which
wreckage, driftwood and small buildings
are floating. The loss cannot be esti-
mated, but stock and farm products
have suffered greatly.
The greatest fears are entertained for
the extensive levees along the Illinois
shore, but it is now thought the thou
sands of acres of wheat between Warsaw
and Quincy will not be inundated. The
river measures about eighteen feet above
high-water mark, both at Warsaw and
Alexandria, and the water is still pour
ing over the low lands.
At Keokuk the river is 1916 feet above
high water, and with no indication that
the rain will cease.
Heavy foods are reported along the
line of the Toledo, Peoria and Western
railroad, with bad washouts near Bush
nell.
On the Mississippi, the danger point
has been passed, and the river is falling.
Between Alexandria and West Quincy
some thirty miles of track of the st.
Louis and Keokuk road is covered from
one to two inches, and trains were aban-
doned this afternoon. This morning the
water put out the fire in . freight
engine. It is expected that the water
will have fallen enough by Monday to
permit trains to run as usual. The
track Of the Rock Island paralelling the
Des Moines river, is badly damaged, but
a large force is making repairs, and
trains are running on time. The Bona
parte woolen mills have been closed
until the food recedes.

CONSOLIDATION OF FACTORIES.

1t viii Not be Done. at Least for Some
Time
The following was received yesterday
by Associated Press:
BELLArRE, O., March s.-Negotiations
are in progress here for the consolidation
of the four big window glass plants in this
city. The concerns are the enterprise, the
Crystal, the Bellaire and the Union Glass
Works. The purpose is TO cut down oper-
ating expenses and increase the output.
The combined concerns employ about 1000
persons.
There is no truth in the report that
the four window glass companies have
combined, or are about TO combine, for
the purpose Of building tank furnace
and generator. An evening paper on
Friday of last week published an article
to the effect that they were about to
combine for that purpose, but there is
nothing in it.
Mr.. H. Roemer, President Of the
Union Window Glass Company, is in
favor OF combination Of that kind,
and has been talking to the directors
Of the Union, Crystal, Bellaire and En-
terprise ompanies. His idea is
for the four companies TO
obtain site on the old
Rhodes farm, west OF the city, on which
TO build a new factory, to be supplied
with a tank furnace equal to fifty pots,
the capacity of the four works in ques-
ton. By this combination the capital
could be placed at 100000, and saw
ing at least six per cent could be effect
ed in the matter of salaries of managers
and secretaries, besides the tank fur
mace could give employment to three
times the number OF blowers and gath
erers of the present factories.
To do this the companies would all
have to wind up business and be reor-
ganized. This would take several
months time.
