ALAMEDA.

Another phase of the disappearance of
Marsh, the mail-carrieT, has come to light
in the fact that the girl he is accused of
having wronged has been for long time
associated with Poundmaster Tapio of
Alameda, and in one instance Tapio and
the girl tried to get married. One night
Tapio left his Intended bride in buggy at
the gate and he went to the residence of
an ex-Justice of the Peace TO arrange the
wedding, which he wanted 10 take place
right there. He could not seem to see that
the ex-Judge had not the power to tie
matrimo ial knots, so when he returned
TO the buggy he informed the girl that he
had arranged a contract marriage and
would call the next day to get the papers
which would be made out. The girl sa wv
through the scheme before long and
began to look farther among the male
element in hopes of finding some one bet
ter suited TO her, when she became ac-
Quanted with Marsh. Her trouble be-
gan TO he prominent soon after and she
blamed Marsh as being the cause of her
misfortun ne, though she had told many of
her intimate friends that Tapio was the
real cause of it, Marsh rather than be-
come mixed uD in the matter skipped out
leaving matters TO take their own course.

A feature In the organization OF the new
league is the manner in which the Haight-
street baseball park is to be managed.
J. b. Gilbert, who has been. and is now.
Tor that matter, the chief promoter of
the Central Lpague, has secured from the
Southern Pacific Company entire control
of the grounds, not alone Cor baseball
privileges, but for other sports and amuse-
ments as we'll. In future the grounds will
be known as the Haight-street Recreation
Grounds and will DO under the manage
ment of Mr.. Gilbert. He has entered into
an arrangement with the Central League
whereby he agrees to aSsume all the ex-
penses of each game. such as ground rent,
advertising, balls, ticket.sellers. gate
tenders, etc, ana will pay to the two COM
peting teams 80 per cent of the gross gate
and grand stand receipts. This arrange
ment is con sidered highly satisfactory, as
it insures good gate and ground service
and will prevent those petty squabbles
and iealousies that gave the death blow to
the old league.

Action of the New York Associa-
ton Warmly Commended.
BENEFICIAL EFFECT.
Demand for Currency Has Increased
the Amount Of Free Gold.
The Gain During the Past Week viii BE
More Than $4,000, 1000 Large sums
Paid Out for Pensions Decrease
Legal Tender Gains.

New YORK, June 16.-The clearing
house loan committee met this morning,
but did not issue any certificates. After
the meeting members of the COMMITTEES
declined to give any information as to
whether any applications were received
for loan certificates. as matter of TACT,
no certificates could be issued today, be-
cause there has not been time for the
directors OF any bank to meet and auth
orize the necessary application to be
made therefor. 1t is not known yet
whether any bank desires to take out
certificates. The loan committee, how
ever, will meet again tomorrow
The action OF the Clearing House ssso-
citation, in deciding to issue loan certifi-
Gates, was warmly commended on every
hand today, and it is conceded that the
announcement of their resolutions had a
very beneficial effect. There was a slight
falling off in the shipments of currency.
1t was estimated the amount would fall
good deal short of 81 900, 900.
The demand for currency has had an
effect of increasing the amount of free
gold in the treasury, and the amount
last night exceeded $92, 600, 900, which is
a gain of g, 0O0, 600 over last week. But
for the fact that the treasury had to pay
out large sums for pensions it would
show q large gain in legal tenders, a
large amount of which was received from
banks for currency.
