SAN DIEGO, Gala, November 19.-The
widowed Sonora Isabel Rinz de Maytorena,
is dying here, in her s7th year, without
having settled her claim to the Ensanada
grant Of $4,000 acres in Lower California
which she claims by inheritance
from her father, Coldon Manuel
Rintz, an officer in the Mexican cavalry ser
vice, who was given the grant as a reward
for distinguished services. The suit against
her only daughter, Mrs. Mary Burton,
this city, to restore the patent of this tract
which she claims was secured by fraud, is
now pending as shortly after the papers
were saved to recover the patent. Mrs.
Burton left for Mexico CITY, where
she now is. The invalid has made re-
quest for the last sacraments, and, though
gradually failing, reiterates the wrong
done her by her own daughter. 1t is pre-
sumed that her will transmits this claim to
her son FREDERICK who is with her, and
that this celebrated case will continue to
be heard from,

Pooling ofRniIrnnhs.

NEW York, November 1S.-A meeting
Of the presidents of all seaboard trunk
lines doing business to the west was held
here. It was decided that the only wav to
prevent decentralization OF rates was to re-
turn to the old plan of pooling business,
pure and simple, as was done before the
interstate commerce law made it illegal.
1t is no less. illegal now, but the officers
saw no other way out of the difficulty and
evidently resolved to take chances that the
law will not be vigorously enforced against
them. An agreement was accordingly
drawn up, appointing Commissioner God
dard to adjust all percentages among the
roads on all competitive west-bound

to appeal from his award to A. f. Walker,

PORTLAND, Oregon, November 1s.-It is
understood that the democratic state CEN
tral committee will contest the election of
the republican elector receiving the lowest
vote, on the ground that Nathan Pierce,
elector on the populist ticket and who was
endorsed by the democrats, did not have
his full vote counted. In printing the Of
ticial ballots Pierce's name was printed un-
der both populist and democratic groups
by the democratic county clerks, while re-
publicans printed it only under the popu-
list group. 1t is alleged by democrats that
in counting the vote the republican judges
threw out the ballots where Pierce's name
appeared twice. 1t is claimed that in Clat-
sop county alone 600 votes for Pierce were
not counted. AS the count stands, Pierce
is only few hundred behind. The demo-
Gratis say they will make the contest not
because Pierce's vote is needed in the cleo
toral college, but they want to make a test
case.

King county is still supreme. She still
holds the political scepter and rules the
state. She gave McGraw a majority of
over 1000 and elected him governor. The
balance of the state gave snively about
1000 majority, but the democrats of King
county tiew to the rescue of McGraW and
averted his certain defeat. To them he
owes his election and to them King county
owes the continuance of her supremacy
In other counties voters divide on party
lines. The King county voters, regardless
Of their party affiliations, always vote to
keep the heel of King county upon the
neck of the state. In 1884 and 1886 the re.
publicans of the county joined hands with
the republicans and elected Voorhees,. In
1888 and 1892 the democrats joined with
the republicans and elected Allen and Nc
GraW. In each case the local interests OF
King county were specially subseryed
above the interests of other localities.
King county always plays the game Of
"heads l win, tails you lose, and which
ever way it goes, she comes out the win.
ner Until the voters of other counties
awake to their interests and learn to do as
the voters of King county do, instead Of
dividing and part Of them aiding King
county to dominate and rob the balance
Of the state, King county will continue tc
be King.-Walla Walla Spectator.

Exploit of six Young Tramps in "a
saloon In San FrancIscO-HOw
the SalOOn-Keeper Defended


Himself.
SAN Francisco, November 18.-Six young
men who look like tramps and street "strik-
ers," entered the wine cellar and saloon of
Louis Tschech, last night Soon after there
were cries for help and screams followed by
a pistol shot. The six men ran up on the
sidewalk again, and blood streaming from
the forehead OF one who gave the name of
Ed Hanly and subsequently that of W. D.
Ostrander, showed that be was badly hurt.
Officer Mccarthy and Special Cochran
arrested the party and took Tschech into
custody. Hanly was shot in the forehead
above the left eyebrow. Tschech, who was
charged with assault to commit murder,
gave an account of the trouble as follows:
my wife and were getting ready to close
the saloon when this crowd entered. AsI
had considerable money and did not like
their looks, refused to serve them. One
ran behind the bar and seized a wine meas
ure and proceeded to draw wine from the
cask. grabbed him when that big fellow"

truck at me with club. Then my wife
screamed and ran to my assistance. This
man whom | shot got her by the throat
with both hands and began to choke her
broke away from the others who had
seized me, ran to my bureau in the next
room, got my pistol anc shot at the man
who held my wife"
Tschech is a small, sickly appearing
Austrian. The wounded man was sent to
the receiving hospital, but said he was only
slightly bruised on the forehead bv a fall
on the sidewalk, and as he refused to be
treated he was sent back to the city prison,
There he was washed and bullet hole was
found, Hanly was charged with battery.
Harris was also charged with battery, while
John Cavanaugh, John Brown and George
Williams, who participated in the assault,
were charged with disturbing the peace.
Their version of the affair is that they en-
tered the cellar, called for wine afd Tscheck
shot at them. They could noUggive an ac-
count Of themselves other than that they
came from the country recently and are out
OF work. None of the men had 10 cents on
his person. When Hanly was brought
back TO the receiving hospital, the bullet
conld not be located, but fragments of
lead were found in the wound. 1t is be-
lieved the bullet entered the skull.
