ANOTHER VICTIM
Too Much Drink Causes the Drowning
of Folsom Man.


of Folsom Man.
A man known as Handsome Harry"
was drowned in the American River near
Folsom on Saturday night. During the
day he was in Folsom and drank great
deal, and when he started for home he
was considerably under the influence of
liquor.
Arriving at the river he got into boat
and amused himself by rowing about.
The boat was upset, probably by the
rapid current, and he was sucked down
by one of the eddies that exist there.
The boat cannot be found, and has
probably been dashed to pieces. Harry
had no relatives about Folsom, and not
much is known of him.
Perhaps those of the City Trustees who
do not like to drink river water will try
and have the body tished out before dis
integration takes place. Those who do
like river water however, might object
to any interference with their privilege.

Hetsy Green ms n Belle.

While credit must be given Mrs. Het-
ty Green for wonderful shrewdness and
business sagacity in building up her
fortune, 1T must not be forgotten that
she had a good start. When her father
died. he left her 90, 900, 600 to fight the
battle of life with. 1t was more money
in those days than 1t is now. He was an
old whaler and shipping merchant of
New Bedford named Edward Mott Rob-
inson. He married a Miss Rowland,
and the full name OF Mrs. Hetty Green
Is Harriet Rowland Robinson Green.
She was her fathers private secretary
for four or FIVE years before his death,
and in this way she acquired a knowl-
edge OF business matters. Old Robinson
vas frugal and economical to extremes,
and among the lessons early impressed
upon the daughters mind were econ
omy and simplicity in daily life and
the value and virtue OF money.
Before the var began Mrs. Green. at
that time Miss Hetty Robinson, the
heiress, spent several winters In New
York and was almost q belle In society.
She had considerable beauty OF a robust
sort, and her family and fortune were
certainly irreproachable.
She lived for q time in a boarding
house on West Twenty-second street,
and when she went to parties would
walk from there. It is related that
rather than pay cab fare she used to
pun a pair Of heavy stockings ove her
stout shoes and tramp through the snow
to a reception or ball, pulling the stock
ings of when she arrived and spreading
them out somewhere TO dry.-New

SUPT. TO CAPTAINS.
Byrnes Lectures Precinct Com
manders on Election Matters.
Tells Them to Be Perfectly Neutral
In Their Official Acts.
Excise Violations and Lexow Wit
nesses' Persecution Mentioned.

All the captains and acting captains
In command of the various police pre-
cinCts were summoned to Police Head
quarters this morning by Supt. Byrnes
and lectured for a half hour.
II was just o'clock when the Super
intendent began delivering his instruc-
TONS and II was precisely $50 when
the captains we're dismissed.
When seen subsequently in relation to
the matter, the Superintendent said:
My instructions were purely OF n
private nature What I said was
merely calculated to improve the dis
cipline Of the force. There was nothing
of an extraordinary character said or
suggested. have been In the habit OF
calling precinct commanders together
at stated periods for some advice. This
was one of those occasions
The captains who were approached on
the subject refused to say what matter
or matters were discussed or what was
the gist OF the superintendent remarks.
IL was learned from an UNOFFICIAL source,
however, that the Superb tendent made
known his wishes with regard to the
coming election, and that his instruc-
tons were confined principally to that
matter. The captains, It was limited,
were cautioned to maintain a neutral
osition and to discourage any EFFORT
upon the part OF subordr ates to exercise
any considerable influence for the bena-
fit of one or the other party. The In
structions, It was said. were explicit on
this point. and any attempt at intimida-
ton upon the part OF any police officer,
the Superintendent is said to have in
sisted, should he reported to Hcadquar-
ters forthwith. SO that the officer might
be summarily disciplined.
The enforcement of the excise laws
was also mentioned. and the result Of
the superintendent recent investiga-
lions was dwelt upon. The fact that
there have been sixty-odd thousand vio-
lations of the law within a period Of
three months was evidence OF neglect
upon the part of the precinct command
ers. the Superintendent declared. and
some effective measures should be used
to check the Illegal traffic.
Numbers Of some places with the
names OF the reputed proprietors, where
liquors are sold in violation OF the law
were furnished to the captains. 1t was
said. from the reports OF the detectives
who gathered the evidence.
Rumor had II also that the Superin-
tendent had a great deal to say about
the alleged persecution OF people who
had been before the Lexow Committee
as witnesses.

Sharp Fluctuations in Whiskey,
Sugar and Chicago Gas.
Railroad Stocks Continue to Display
Marked Strength.

The excitement in whiskey and Sugar
has subsidized, but the heavy slump in
prices during the last few days has LEFT
the whole Industrial group in feverish
and unsettled state.
Whiskey and Sugar had their ups and
downs this morning, but the fluctuations
were confined within much narrower
limits. Whiskey sold down to 10 3-S, and
Chicago Gas to 81 SIS. with a rally to
10 7-S and 50 L. Sugar rose l, to 81, and
dropped to SO l-8.
The railway list continues to display
marked strength, and has advanced Ia
to IA per cent. The rise Is due partly
to purchases to cover shorts and partly
to firmer market for Americans in
London. The fact that the latest esti-
mates in regard to the corn crop make
the probable yield 200, 900. 900 to 300, 00O, 900
in excess of the amount named In the
recent Government report also has a
good effect on the grangers.

crop, printed by 1.-The World to-day,

had a favorable influence.
