FALSE TO HIS TRUST.
Defalcation of the Treasurer of Jack
son County, Or.

ASHLAND, Or, Aug. 9.-The Jackson
County Court, in session at Jacksonville
yesterday, instructed the District Attorney
to institute suit against the bondsmen of
George E. Bloomer, County Treasurer of
Jackson County, to recover something over
S15, 900, which amount the records show
Bloomer to be indebted to the county,
though developments since indicate that
the amount of the defacation may not be
more than half that sum. The County
Court found the shortage on July s. but
gave Boomer month to settle up. Satur-
day he left Jacksonville for Ashland, and
took the train here that evening for the
north, and has not shown up since, so that
when the court convened yesterday and
Boomer did not present himself the mat
ter was precipitated. The bondsmen are
as follows: j. Nunan. $500; Charles
Nickel, $1,000; Benjamin Raymond. $4,000;
Z. Kubll. $500. They are responsible
and may confess judgment and REIN burse
the county at once. Bloomer is young
man and has always been popular in bust
ness circles and socially. but he spent con-
siderable money. and was known as a
good fellow. 1t is supposed that much of
the shortage is due to that BE was also

side of the National Cordage COMPANY

Good Company to-day for the purpose OF
forming trust. Twenty companies were
repre- ented and the National Cordage was
invited but did not accept. Tubbs Of Oak
land was among those represented.
John Good addressed the meeting on the
question of forming a combine" to whose
interest it was to put raw material at a S
low . price as possible and to dispose of
the manufactured article at gond prof.
to the makers. He suggested plan to
form mutual protective and incorporated
association. each member being placed
under bond and to deposit the stock of his
company as a forfeit. The board of con-
troll will regulate prices and manage the
purchase of all fiber, prevent the cutting
of prices and the giving of rebates. and in
fact have general supervision of the affairs
of the trust. The board, however, will
have no power to limit the product beyond

FOULLY MURDERED.
Assassination of an Italian Near
MOnrOYia.

Assassination of an Italian Near
MonrOvia.
Los ANGELES, Aug. 9.-Last evening
at s o'clock cold blooded assassination
occurred at Lower Duarte, one mile east
of Monrovia. which is liable to remain a
mystery for all time. At the time men,
toned five men we're seated about table,
standing outside the house under some
shade trees. About the table were the
proprietor Of the ranch, his son, two
nephews and Pedro Lusardia, an Italian,
who has been employed on the ranch for
over two years. Pedro occupied seat
almost opposite TO. and in direct line with
he corner of the house. An ordinary
lantern was suspended over the table. Out
of forty employees, Pedro was the only
one at work. Pedro has been on the place
for long time and has family residing
in Italy. to whom he sends his earnings
regularly every month.
The party was enjoying the evening
repast, when, suddenly, rife shot was
heard. and almost instantly Pedro fell
forward on the table. An Investigation
was made at once and it was found that
he had been shot in the back, the bullet
passing through and lodging just under
the skin at tile pit of the stomach. He
lived for two hours, when he breathed his
last witho out u.tering word. The shot
came from the corner of the house and it
is thought that the bullet was intended for
the proprietor and not for PEDRO. who is
generally liked in that section, and has no
known enemy.

In the suffrage congress to-day Fred
Douglass was greatly wrought up by
Stephen B. Weeks. professor Of Trinity
College, North Carolina, who cad paper
on negro suffrage. The professor said :
Negro suffrage is a failure. and it must
remain failure so long as it is not an ally
OF the white vote. The Southern people
will not submit to domino alton. The white
man must rule. No man who has not
lived In negroland knows what negro
alton is. 1t means the destruction
of property, ruin and bankruptcy"
When the professor had finished Doug
lass made an impassioned reply. "Yeu
are not afraid of negro domination" he
said. 1.-THE negro never can rule this
country. He would be outyOred by 60. OOO 600
whites There IS no opposition to the
negro in the South until he aspires to rise.
II he aspires to become lawyer or a
doctor he at once becomes an upstart."
The several sections discussed papers on
the government of cities, female suffrage
and law reform.
