The OAKLAND BURGLAR.
He Is Finally Run Down and Captured
Here.
Mike Coleman Is His Name and He
Was Driven Out of This City
Last Fall.

Chief of Police Rodgers received tele-
gram from Chief Shaffer of Oakland on
Monday night that one Mike Coleman
was implicated in the burglary in that
city last Saturday night and that he was
known to be in Sacramento. Yesterday
morning Chief Rodgers received a second
telegram stating that an ex-police officer
in Sacramento knew Coleman and his
whereabouts.
The Chief next learned that the man
had been seen in this city on Monday
night, but it was feared that he had left
town.
Rodgerssat once went to work on the
case and ascertained that a woman
known as Daisy Emery, alias Annie
Sprague, lodging in house on Fourth
street, between X and L, had received
visit from a suspicious character on Mon
day night. 1t was further learned that
she was or had been the mistress of one
Louis Mathenay, one of the burglars ar
rested IN San francisco on Monday night
Tor completely in the Oakland burglary
and murder.
1he woman was also known TO have
been in possession OF various silks and
hnery at different times believed to be
the booty OF burglars. On Monday night
she was found crying, and appeared to be
much affected by something she had read
i'll the papers.
She was very careful in what she said
in reply to the questions of the officers,
and If she knew anything about the oak
land murder, or the Whereabouts Of Cole
man, she kept it to herself and gave the
chief no information.
Coleman was well known to the Off
GERS here, however, and after searching
for several hours he was found III sa-
loon by Chief Rodgers and Officers
Lowell and Ahern, and placed under ar
rest.
y search warrant was then procured,
the officers went to Daisy Emery's house,
and after placing her under arrest
searched the room, with the result of
| finding n quantity of silk and other ap-
parent plumber.
Neither of the prisoners would give any
information to the officers, and both of
them were locked up in the City Jail.
Both Mathenay and the burglar ToU-
hill, who was killed by Ouicer Cashin in
Oakland, are said TO have been here dur
ing the State Fair last year, and to have
been under the surveillance of the police.
They are also thought to have been OF the
gang who committed a number OF burg
laries and safe robberies in this city.
Cole was interviewed last evening
by Attorney j. d. Long, and it was
thought an attempt would be made to
have him released by a writ Of habeas
corpus, as he was arrested on telegram
without regular warrant.
An officer from Oakland came up last
night, however, and will take the pris-
oner down this morning.

truth that the amendment has been born

the people may decide as TO the Capital.
has made itself ridiculous, and the State
along with it.
IL Is of no great importance to Califor-
mans in general whether the Capital shall
remain at Sacramento or 90 to San Jose
each city undoubtedly has its peculiar ad-
yantages-but it is of good deal of inn
portance that full-grown men should be
picked out to send to the Legislature.
And when the proposed removal comes
under discussion for settlement at the
polls the hardest thing the advocates of
change will have to combat will be the
undenlabIe accusation that the scheme
was conceived, not with an eye to the
pupic good, but out of revenge for
small newspapers structures and the re-
tusal OF Sacramento's fashionable society
10 take to its arms the tall-browed gen
tlemen OF this Legislature who long to
dlsport themselves in the gilded halls of
pride and pleasure. 1t would be in char
acter were they to seek further to ''get
even, by giving stag party in the AS
Sembly chamber, from which all the
hard-hearted, unappreciative ladies of
sacramento should be barred. Then the
statesmen might have their pictures
taken Tor the Worlds Fair.
The record-union., 1893-03-15
BORN OF PIQUE.
Full-Grown Men should be Sent to the
Legislature.

From the San Francisco Examiner.l
However opinions may differ as to the
desirability oftransterring the State Capt.
tai from Sacramento to San Jose, there
can be but one judgment as to the motives
which inspired the Legislature to give so
overwhelming vote in favor of the
change. Because a newspaper of Sacra-
mento chose to speak disrespectfully of
the body and express thanktulneSs to
heaven that the hour OF its adjournment
was near, this dignified assemblage of
statesmen determined to deprive the city
of whatever advantage and honor there
may be connected with the location there
OF the State Government. Such resent
ment is childish. More than that, it is an
unwarrantable interference with the lib
erty of the press-a thing of profounder
consequence than wounds to the vanity
of any number of ephemeral lawmakers.
If the Capital is to be removed because a
Sacramento newspaper offended the sem
sibilities of the gentlemen of the Legis-
lature by its utterances, 1t IS to be under
stood that San Jose shall enter into a con-
tract, express or implied, that the news
papers of the town shall never print
anything calculated to bring the
flush of Indignation to the delcBte
pink cheek of the future legislator,
on pain of the Capital being carted
away and set up in some more consider
dlt ScLLlGtll6IlI! IL IL dlSO W D6 unuGr-
stood that the ladies of San Jose warned
by the fate of the too naughty fair of Sac
ramento, shall wear low-necked dresses
and ravishing smiles, and throw open
their drawing-rooms to the statesmen
who pine away from home and out of the
gloom of obscurity? For one count in
the complaint against the present capital,
we observe, is that the Four Hundred
there have been cold this winter toward
the Brummels and McA listers of the
Senate and Assembly.
Reasons other than these given for the
proposed removal are obviously after
thoughts. We do not say that san Jose
is not a better place for the Capital than
Sacramento is, but if so, it is no better
relatively now than it has been for twenty
years past. Had the amendment been
submitted to the people because of this
assumed superiority of San Jose, after
Intelligent and decorous deliberation, the
matter would wear another aspect. AS it
is, there is no conceaiing the discreditable

EXHIBITS FOR CHICAGO.
How Articles for the Worlds Fair Are
to Be Packed.
Circular of Instructions Issued for the
Guidance of Intending
Exhibitors.

j. B. Lauck, Manager of the Traffic De-
partment of the Worlds Fair Commits
sion, has issued circular of ''instruc-
tions to shippers which contains much
Information of importance to those who
intend sending exhibits to the Chicago
Exposition.
For one thing it is announced that all
shipments in less than carload lots must
be shipped to one of the following named
stations: San Francisco, Oakland six
teenth street., San Jose, Sacramento,
Marysville, Stockton, Los Angeles, San
Diego and Sagus. All shipments to the
above-named stations, or to be made
through the commission. must be marked
and consigned California Worlds FAIR
Commission, care J. B. Lauck, Traffic
Manager" Shipments should be made
as much as possible by one consignor.
This will materially tighten both freight
and terminal charges; for example, il a
number of consignors ship one box each,
the terminal charges Will be with q
minimum OF 30 cents for any single ship
ment from one consignor. In making
shipments of various consignors one
name must be used in order to secure the
advantage of carload rates.
The freight arrangements already men
toned do not apply TO horses or other
fancy animals, the rates on which have
not been definitely determined, but of
which the exhibitor will be advised by
special circular to be issued later. The
dates set apart for the exhibition of fancy
livestock are as follows: Cattle and horses,
August 2lst to September Dist inclusive;
sheep and swine, from September 18th TO
october 18th inclusive; fat stock, October
10th to October 2Sth inclusive.
All shipments must be packed and at
terminal points and loaded in carload lots
ready to move for Chicago not later than
March 10th, excepting trees, plants and
shrubs. Trees and plants for the horti-
cultural court must reach Chicago on or
before April 10th, being ready Tor ship
ment no later than April 18th, all other
shrubbery and plants to reach Chicago no
later than May 9th. In the packing of
glass jars with liquids of any class great
care should be taken in this work, more
especially to guard against the cold
weather through which many of these
these things may pass i'll transit.
Exceptionally tine, expensive or fragile
exhibits, such as paintings, pictures, stat
uary, jewelry, gold and silverware and

portation by the railroad companies but
should be delivered to the express COM
panies for carriage.
Country managers and all others who
have shipments to make for Worlds Fair
exhibits must have their representatives

The Traducer of sacramento Seeks a

George II. Stipp, the author of the sour
rilous libel against Sacramento and her
people which was used to such good
purpose by the San Jose delegation"-ac-
cording to the MercHrY of the latter
place-departed from the Capitol yester-
day, where he had enjoyed as fat ''sit',
a. was possible for a creature of such lean
and lanky proportions.
He not only left the Capitol. but he left
the Capital City as well, and wherever he
may be when he awakes this morning he
be will no doubt ask himself:
NV here am | at, and what am | here
for?"
Just as he was leaving the city he was
heard to remark that, from some whis-
perings that had come to his ears, he had
concluded that his hasty departure from
town would be beneficial to his physical
comfort.
This fellow Stipp has a high forehead.
even though he and Truth are bitter enc
mics, and it may be that he finally came
to realization of what a foul and con-
temptible libel he had uttered, and which
he had reason TO fear this self-respecting
community would not tolerate.

DUFFY DISMISSED.
The Man He Carved was Not on Hand
to Prosecute.


In Judge Catlin's court yesterday, when
the Judge asked if the case of the People
VS.. Collun Duffy was ready for trial, Dis
trict Attorney Ryan stated that the Sheriff
had tried diligently to find two of the
witnesses, who live in San Francisco. and
one Of whom is the prosecuting witness.
The latter had shown very little interest
in the case since it left the Police Court
and did not seem anxious to prosecute
1t was also stated that both the absent
witnesses had shipped on some vessel for
a voyage, and 1t was therefore not likely
they could be found.
The one witness present would not be
sufficient to secure conviction, and the
defendant had been punished already by
three months Imprisonment in the
County Jail. The occurrence had hap
pened as the result of drunken row
over Christmas dinner on the steamer
Modoc. He moved, under the circum-
stances, that the case be dismissed, and
the court ordered that it be so disposed of.

The Removal Question.

EDS. RECORD UNION: AS our legisla-
tors have deliberately confirmed their
resolution to remove the Capital, their
act, which at first was folly, now deserves
a blacker name. The record should be
inscribed where all may read it, so long
as the present building shall stand, even
though its halls are abandoned to bats
and owls. Properly there should be
craven on its walls the story of how the
present Legislature have voted to destroy
the many millions which our State had
invested at Sacramento, but it is not un-
likely that some of these men may still
retain influence enough to prevent
the record from being placed
Sacramento, however, can act in
the matter. They can preserve the
disgracetul tale as warning to future
generations. showing how little conf
dence can be placed in the men to whom
is entrusted the serious duty of zealously
guarding and building up the best inter-
ests of our great State. A granite monu-
ment, which will endure through the
centuries, can be erected on the street
curbing, in front of the Capitol building.
1t can, if charity will grant so light
symbol, be topped with a FOOLS cap, and
on its sides can be deep-hewn the names
of each and every one who has voted in
favor of the removal and sought to cloak
their shame behind the requirement that
San Jose shall contribute something to
the erection of a new building, knowing
full well that the amount they ask is but
tithe of what such structure will cost.
and that the State itself would really have
to complete it, and possess, when finished.
two buildings to mock each other and ad-
vertise its own disgrace.

Fresno's Winter Apples.

70 EDS. RECoRD-UNIoN: Downing in his
Fruits and Fruit Trees of America. :"
page 50, lines and I, says: "The New
town Pippin is now pretty generally ad-
mitted to be the finest apple in the
world" His statement is true for all
places having summer rains, as also for
the damp coast region of California, but
is untrue for the intense Summer heat
and irrigation of Fresno County.
But we are happy in having a Seeding
of the Newtown Pippin equaling its par
ent in productiveness and flavor. and
surprising it in size, and PERFECTLY
adapted to Fresno's heat and irrigation.
[ refer to the Golden Wilding. which
originated among the hot, dry sand hills
of North Carolina. y dish OF them beside
me on the table as write fill the room with
their fragrance; and they are now. when
strawberries are beginning to ripen. as
crisp, juicy and delicious as any. New
town Pippin ever tasted by Downing.
The only objection to this apple is its
color, which is dull yellowish green.
Following out the line of thought pre-
sented by the above, we have obtained
from localities of intense summer heat
their best varieties of long-keeping winter
apples. From Mobile, Ala, we have the
Red Warrior local name, not the Red
Warrior described by Downing, which
keeps crisp and juicy throughout the
winter, and is, moreover, an excellent
seller because of its bright red color.
The Grindstone apple from near CAL
weston, Texas, keeps through the winter.
and till Astrachans ripen in the June fol-
lowing.
We had twelve days during last sum-
mer that the thermometer registered
above 1902 Fahrenheit here in the shade
by my house. The above apples grew
and ripened in that intense heat, and are
now supplying the most delicious of
winter fruits without the trouble or ex-
pense of canning, and are selling in the
market to-day for five cents per pound,
as against one cent per pound for such
apples as keep only through summer ana
autumn. w. a. SANDERS.
