Mr.. Lincoln was naturally astonished at
the communication. His first impulse was
to decline the honor. He was entirely
cOntented and happy in his life and work
as a lawyer, and dreaded To break IL up
and enter an untried field. He hardly felt
at liberty to decline. however, because the
Cabinet was TO be an ounced In day or
two. and he knew that for him to refuse
the position would he to disarrange the
whole plan of the President. He deter
mined to sleep on The question one night,
and the next morning he telegraphed his
acceptance. He remained in Office through
the Arthur administration.
He was married in 1868 to Mary Har an,
a daughter of ex-senator Harlan of Iowa.
He has three children. girl born in 1869,
a hoy in 1873 and girl in 1875.

Pacific Company for 1898 were not up to
the mark for 1892. the company still made
more money, as the expenses were de-
creased in a greater ratio than the earn
ings. The investments. too, of the COM
pany were materially more profitable dur
ing 1893 than in 1892, as is shown by the
figures.

of our leading citizens upon the subject.

was got up In a very quiet manner, and
the word was passed around to keep The
affair a secret as far as possible.
Aside from ex-President Harrison. who
has been extensively noticed by THE CALL
of late. General Sehutield is possibly the
man who is most prominently before the
public among the guests last night.
John McAllister SchOtield, the present
commander OF the army, was born in Chau-
tauqua, \. Y, September %, 1881. he was
educated at West Point and had as class
mates Slocum, Sheridan, Mcpherson and
Hood. who subsequently became famous
in the civil war. Schofield was Of a scien-
tifc turn, and was appointed professor Of
natural philosophy at the West Point AGA
DENY, which position he occupied at tn
breaking out of the war in 1861.
His first service during the contest
was as chief Of staff to General Lyon,
who was killed at Springfield, Mo. Sub
seQuentlv ScbOfeld was appointed as
commander of brigade and distiDg uished
himself against Sterling Price and other
Southern leaders in Missouri and Arkan-
sas. In 1868 he was appointed major
general and assigned to the command of a
division in the Army of OHIO. He served
with Sherman during the Atlanta Cam

the series of battles that resulted in the
destruction of Hoods army. Alter the

FLOOD INDICTED.
The Ex-Cashier Arrested
on a New Charge.
Howard Ravens Supplies the Grand
Jury With Material for New
Criminal Proceeding.

1t Is mol intended that John W. Flood, the ex-
cashier of the Donohoe- Kelly Bank, shah es-
cape the serious charges which were laid
against him exactly one year ago without due
investigation.
No sooner had the new Grand Jury been i'm
paneled and entered upon its OnerOus duties
than the familiar form OF Howard Ravens,
vice-president Of the Donohoe Bank, was seen
patrolling the corridor Immediately outside the
juryroom, accompanied by Attorney Galpn,
who appeared as special counsel for the prose-
eution at Floods trial on the charge OF empeZ-
Element.
Mr. Ravens was admitted to the juryroom,
and there testified 10 certain facts in connection
with Floods case. The result OF this examina-
ton was almost Immediately made apparent
by the formal filing OF Grand Jury indictment
against John W. Flood.
The Indictment was founded upon section
563 of The Penal Code, which decides that
every cashier, treasurer or trusted employe OF
NDankiug corporation who shall In any way
falsify records or bOoSs of tbs concern, in such
a way as to conceal statements or figures that
should find their way therein, is guilty OF a
felony. The punishment Tor this oftense Is
fixed at Imprisonment In the States prison for
a term not less than three nor exceeding len
years or imprisonment in the County jail for
one year, the alternative fine being set at $500.
The specific entry-or, rather, absence of
such-upon which the present charge Is based,
concerns the alleged deposit of $4,000 with
the Donohoe-Keily Bank by Mrs. M. s. Lyle.
1t Is charged that although this amount was
duly posted and a certificate of deposit duly
given. lbe amount so deposited did not appe ar
upon the books of the bank. Flood Is charged
with responsibility for this omission, and.
under the section referred to. indicted by the
jury.
Judge Heobard received the indictment from
Foreman Sidney nj. Smith. and ordered bench
warrant TO be at once issued for Floods arrest.
Bail was fixed at $4,000.
The appeal OF the peoJle OF the State OF Cali
fornia from the order OF Judge Seaw II grant
ing new trial to Flood upon the ENLIGHTENMENT
charge of which he was convicted Is still pend.
Ing before the Supreme Court. As new trial
III such cases is generally held TO be virtual
acquittal. the ma ter has been brought up In a
new form before the Grand Jury. Flood Is al
present at liberty on $4,000 bonds pending
the Supreme Court appeal, while yesterdays
proceedings will, of course, necessilate an
other long and tedious criminal trial, with the
same careful investigation OF the books thai
was found necessary I'D the trial tnat resulted

WILSON A MEMBER
Russell j. Elected a
Director
IN THE SOUTHERN PACIFIC.
Mrs. Stanford's Representatives
Increased.
THE BUSINESS OF THE PAST YEAR
Although Earnings Decreased, tht
Expenses Were Cut Down in a
Still Greater Ratio.

The annual meeting Of the Southern Pa
cific stockholders occurred yesterday.
when the anticipated election of the new
board of directors took place.
The most noticeable change in the CON-
plexion of this board is in the election of
| a third representative of the Stanford in
terest in the rerson of Russell j. Wilson.
1t would seem from this that Mrs. STAN
| ford is disposed to extend her supervision
over the proprietary interests she has in
the road a far as possible. and that the
rumored disposition on her part to with
draw from the road is unfounded.
What tends 10 strengthen this belief Is
the fact that Stephen T. Gage was again
| elected a director, as was also n. I. Smith,
the present treasurer CT the road. both of
whom are recognized representatives of
the lady mentioned.
The following is list Of the members
comprising the new board: C. P. Hunt
ington, C. f. Croker, T. II. Hubbard,
Russell j. Wilson. S. T. Gage, n. T. Smith.
W. Fl. Croker. II. E. Huntington, #. E.
Stillman, A. n. Towne and j. &. Stubs.
Mrs. Stanford was present in person at
the meeting yesterday. that being the first
time she has ever attended an election or
gathering of this character.
1t will be seen by the list that there ara
but two changes from the old b0ard-that
OF MIR. Wilson, already mentioned, and
the substitution OF w. Ii: Crocker,s name
for that of his brother George. This is
said to be due 10 the fact that the latter
contemplates spending much time abroad
during the coming year or two, and for
this reason himself suggested the change.
Mr.. Wilson fills the vacancy caused by the
death of Senator Stanford.
The stockholders adopted a resolution
ratifying the acts OF the directors during
the asst year, as shown by the minutes.
The total number of shares of capital
stock held is ], 190,471, and of this number
1,166, 301 we're represented at the meeting.
