FRUIT SHIPMENT.
Comments Upon the Plan for General
Distribution.

Naca7ille Reporter, September 1Oth.1
In a recent issue we said something
concerning proposition of w. II. Mills
before the State Board Of Trade. Wewere
entirely wrong in our statement that it
might simply mean substitution Of eX-
press for freight rates. After correcting
our own erroneous impressions we can
not see how the plan proposed could be
otherwise than advantageous to Cali
fornia. The idea is to accomplish a
proper distribution of California fruit
product. AS it now is many of the small
| places in the East cannot secure any of
our fruits. What the plan of MIR. Mills
| aims to accomplish is at once SO simple a
method that we wonder that it has not
been thought of before. Under present
conditions fruits are shipped to different
| points in carload lots. From Chicago and
! other centers it is distributed. The Ques-
| zion is frequently asked, why not ship
! direct to some of the smaller towns? The
answer readily is made that a carload
would be more than the consumptive de-
mand of the place would justify. 1t is TO
remedy that fact that the suggestion OF
Mr.. Mills is made. 70 secure that broader
market, which is at once seen to be not
! only desirable, but also, in view of the
constantly increasing quantity of our
product, an absolute necessity, it must be
possible to supply the demands of every
small town in the Union with fruit, lust
as the large cities are at present supplied.
Many q town that now receives no Cali
fornia fruit would take fourth or fifth
OF a carload. The idea of Mr.. Mills is to
provide refrigerator cars with four of five
compartments. This would permit car
load to be divided up among four or five
towns, and in that way the demand for
| California green fruit be very largely in
creased. The plan is practical and only
| needs capital and its investment to
u 1r-T.
| California has problem before her, to
make the fifty-odd millions east of the
! Mississippi consumers of her fruit. Re-
| frigeration has solved some of the pre-
| liminary difficulties, and supplemented
! by the operations of MIR. Mills plan we
think the solution has been found. We
hope to see the plan in successful opera
ton, since we recognize in it enlarged
markets and greater certainties of profit
attending fruit growing in California.

Loon LAKE HOUSE On. W, Sept. 49,
The President and members of the
household are more encouraged than
ever to-day over the favorable reports
made by DR.. Gardner in regard to the
condition of Mrs. Harrison. DR.. Gard
ner says: "Mrs. Harrison is improving
very rapidly. Since last reformations
there has been no production of fluid in
the cavity pleura, and, so far as effusion
is concerned, Mrs. Harrison may be con-
sidered out of danger. OF course, can
not say positively that the fluid will not
form again, but do not think it will. [
see no necessity for another operation
unless there is an unlooked-for accumu
lation of fluid. Mrs. Harrison is now
able to sit up in bed, and she rested
quietly nearly all day. She is now TAX
ing as much nourishment as she did be-
fore the appearance of the recent cOmpli-
cation, ard g gaining strength steadily"
While the members of the family assert
that no plans have been made for the
future, it is learned on undisputed author
ity that arrangements have been made
for the early removal of Mrs. Harrison
to Washington, and the start Will be
made as early as Thursday morning
next, providing the present favorable
condition continues. Details of the pro-
posed trip are purposely suppressed.

COURSING.
Hounds and Hares Amuse People at
Ocean View.


SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1S.-The Twelve
Dog stake was the attraction at Ocean
View Coursing Park to-day. The sport
was marred by scarcity of hares. On
this account it was found impossible to
finish the match, and the two unbeateu
dogs in last ties divided the stakes. 4he
last course Of the day was only divided
after Caravan had left the crowd waiting
for an hour, while he and his boys chased
a hare out Of an adjoining field. The hare
when found proved lacking in speed, and
the last course was therefore the shortest
and most unsatisfactory.
The run off at start resulted as follows:
Fair Elay, three to one favorite, beat
Lady Pride; Depend on Me easily ran
away from Maid of Orleans; Dexter beat
Maid Of the Valley; Glen Farren, a two
to one tavorite, beat Comasse; Chickapee
handily vanquiShed the puppy Wide
Awake; Sir John, a stake winner, beat
Last Chance.
The first ties resulted: Depend on Me
beat Fair Play; Glen Farren made a
monkey of Dexter; Sir John easily beat
Wide Awake.
Depend on Me beat Glen Farren in the
first of the ties, thus narrowing the contest
to Depend on Me and Sir John. There
were no hares remaining, however, and
the two dogs divided the stake money in
the manner stated.
The time for the great annual meeting
Of the leashmen of the State is now fast
approaching, and the meeting will in all
probability eclipse any of the former
meetings. The stakes to be run for will
be $500, $500 and $50, and the dogs win
ming three courses so each.

COILS TRANSFORMERS.
The Whereabouts of Evans and Sont
Located.


Located.
VIsALIA, Sept. 18.-The posse which
started out on Wednesday has been heard
from. Men have been stationed at all the
trails and Sontag and Evans have been
located.
Young's house, where Wilson and Nc
Ginnis were killed, was visited on Fri
day, and in following the tracks of the
bandits through the field blood was
found on the leaves of the corn, showing
that one of them had been wounded in
that terrible encounter.
There is no truth in the report that
Woody was shot, but on the day before
the killing at Young's a scout named
Madison was shot at by Evans or Som
tag, the ball striking him on top of the
shoulder, causing flesh wound and cut
ting his vest and shirt. A detective
named Harry Johnson, who is Madison s
partner, is here and gives this informa-
ton.
Sheriff Kay, having partially recovered
from his illness, started out with posse
to-day.
Clark Moore, the mining partner of
Chris Evans, who, it is claimed, has been
shadowing the officers and harboring the
bandits, was arrested here yesterday on
a warrant sworn out in Fresno. One OF
the newspapers found in Evans and Som
tags camp bears date to which Moore
had paid the subscription, though the
name had been torn from the paper,
leaving only the date. Others who have
been feeding the murderers will be ar
rested in a day or two if the desperadoes
are not captured within that time. Moore
was undoubtedly the man taken in this
city for Evans on Admission Day, at
which time he called on Mrs Evans. A
day or two afterward that lady left for
Dunlap, no doubt with the expectation OF
meeting her husband as arranged by
Moore

PORTLAND orr, Sept. 1S.-The Odd

most part, many of them being tired
from their journey across the continent
and their excursion yesterday, which oc-
cupied greater part of the night The
city is full of visitors and large numbers
are expected from Oregon and Washing
ton on the early morning trains. Special
services were held in a number of the
churches to-day and were largely at
tended by the visitors. The Sovereign
Grand Lodge will begin its siXty-eighth
annual session tomorrow. Among the
important questions to be considered are
several that were either reported adj
versely by the committees to which they
were referred or defeated at the last ses-
sion. Among those proposed is an
amendment to the Constitution reducing
the minimum age Of admission to the
order to Is years. The question of the
prOpriety OF admitting SaloOn-keepers to
the order will also come up for cOnsidera-
ton. A series OF amendments to the
Constitution proposed last year reducing
the name Of the Sovereign Grand Lodge
to the Sovereign Lodge, Independent
odd Fellows and the titles Of officers
by emitting "Grand" will probably be
brought up again at this session. The
grand parade will occur tomorrow after

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-A spendid ova-
ton was given to John L. Sullivan in the
Madlson-square Garden last night. Nine
thousand men and about 300 women
crowded into the gardens and showered
applause when the eX-champion APP
peared in the ring to wind up his benefit
with bout with champion jim Corbett.
his victorious opponent. The applause
as Sullivan's burly frame appeared was
deafening. Sullivan turned from right
to left and bowed his head The cheering
grew wilder. Sullivan folded his arms
across his breast and turned his eyes to-
ward the roof to conceal the moisture that
dimmed them. Then Corbett Ieaped over
the ropes and, fastening to the center of
the ring, took Sullivan'S bare hands in
his gloved ones. Quiet was restored and
the eX-caampion spoke briefly. heartily
thanking the people for such a reception
after his defeat. He said he had nothing
but praise for Corbett, and if he con-
unued in the right path he could hold
the championship as many years as he
(Sullivan) did. He had no excuse to
make for his defeat, saying when a de-
teated man makes excuses he makes the
great mistake of his life.
EkCorbeII spoke few words, saying he
would try and hold the championship as
long as Sullivan did. Time was then
called. If the crowd xpected any heavy
hitting it was disappointed, as the exhi-
bition consisted of three very tame
rounds. All sorts of advice was shouted
at Sullivan, such as, "Give him the
right, Johnp' Now, get in a good one
for revenge" But the ex-champion
smiled sadly and continued to exchange
light blows. When the men LETT the rinp

mob, and a big basket of flowers he car
ried narrowly escaped destruction. Sui
Ivan may feel satisfied with his recep-
ton, as it not only showed him that he
still had friends, but it melted him a
handsome profit.
Corbett was given reception at the
Tenderloin Club, last night, and Mike

stake he won at New Orleans.

MURDER AND SUICIDE.
Result of an Old Feud Between Two
Sailors.

Result OF an Old Eeud Between Two
Sailors.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 18.-There was a
shocking case of murder and suicide
about $50 o'clock last evening in the
saloon attached to q sailor boarding.
house at IL and Is Clay street. Charles
Steinforth shot and instantly killed The
odore Anderson and, turning the weapon
on himself committed suicide. Both
men were sailors. Some months ago
they were shipmates and they quarreled
though the cause of their differences is
not known. A few weeks ago they found
themselves under the same roof at the
Clay-Street clearinghouse and although
they spoke still the old grudge ranked
in their bosoms.
Last evening soon after supper two
sailors, Adolph Reeds and Wiebe de
Yong, sat down at card table to play
for the drinks. They invited Anderson
and Steinforth to take hands in the game.
They did so, but it was not long before
the old enemies had another dispute over
the cards and Steinforth left the table in
anger. l.. Hoist took his place at the
table and the game went on for some
time, in fact until interrupted by the
double tragedy. Steinforth went out on
the sidewalk for a time and to friend he
remarked: ''All is trouble in this world.
Life is not worth living, so good by."'
No attention was paid to his words and
he returned to the saloon.
Several times he walked past the play
ers, who by this time were more or less
Jolly from the effects Of beer. Suddenly
Steinforth drew from his belt or pocket a
large Colts navy revolver and, stepping
behind Anderson, placed the muzzle Of
the weapon to his enemy's head. There
was loud report and Anderson tumbled
off the chair to the floor. dead. The bull
let had torn his head open and spattered
his brains over the card table.
The murderer hastily stepped out of the
room into a small back yard or court and
closed the door. A second later there was
subdued roar and the terror-stricke en-
sailors in the saloon surmised that Stein
forth had ended his own life.
When the police forced open the back
door short time later they found that
this surmise was true. Steinforth was
lying on his back with the pistol by his
side, dead. On closing the door behind
him he had turned around with his back
to the door. He placed the pistol to his
right eye and fired the charge through
his head. The top of his skull was torn
open and large clots of brain matter were
spattered over the upper part of the door

An Internal Machine Sent Him by I'm
known Parties.
NEW YORK, Sept 1S.-The life of Gov
srnor Flower has been threatened by an
internal machine sent him at the Windsor
Hotel couple of days ago. The police
officials are very reticent over the affair
and put a large number of detectives
working on the case. a box was sent to
the Governor by mail, but, he being alb
sent, it was not touched for couple of
days. When the wrapper was taken off
the box 1t seemed to be such queer con-
trivance that it was deemed best to turn
II over TO the police.
The police inspector, after soaking the
box in water for two hours, raised the lid
and discovered within cigar box filed
with giant powder and matches, so ar
ranged that if the box was to be opened
under ordinary circumstances it would
explode. The deadly machine contained
enough giant power to have blown the
Governor into eternity. 1t is said letter
was received b. Mr.. Flower before the
package was left at the hotel, warning
him to be careful if he received a box
and implying that an attempt would be
made on his life. This aroused suspicion
when the box was received.
There was great activity at the Detec-
tive Bureau yesterday morning, but the
Inspector would not admit anything in
connection with the Internal machine
Chief Inspector Stears at a late hour
last night sent for the reporters at police
headquarters. and told them that the box
was Enthusiastically an internal machine,
ingeniously contrived to kill the Gov
ernor or whoever might open it, 1t was
not mailed in the Postoffice, but left on

Regarding the internal machine Gov
ernor Flower said that on Wednesday he
received a letter telling him that he would
receive package through the mail, and
not to open it until it had been thoroughly
soaked in water. The Governor turned
the letter over to the police. This was all
he knew about it.
