San Francisco and Oakland Industrials
Reach Sacramento.
SACRAMENTO, April 29.-The San
Francisco and Oakland Industrial ar
mics, numbering about 900 men, arrived
here at o'clock this evening from
Richland, Is miles down the river,
whore they camped last night. They
took up their quarters at the baseball
grounds in the outskirts of the city.
The ground consists of two blocks, in
closed with high fence and with two
stands rooied over. The accommoda-
tions are very poor and many of the men
are without blankets 4 They are pretty
we'll supplied with food, however, one
three steers. Wagons were procured on
the way for hauling their baggage to
the city.
Mrs. Anna Smith, who heads the
Oakland contingent, came to the city
this morning to look up a camping
place. She went first to Sutter Fort,
where the Stockton army and it's re-
cruits are located, but had cold recep-
tion there, the men refusing to hGve
anything to do with the San Francisco
and Oakland men, aH Barker had played
them falee in ordering them here while
he wsg making arrangements to go eRst
by way of Mojave.
Mrs. Smith then called or Chief OF
Police Drew and asked him what he
was going to do with the newcomers.
He told her the city had no place for
them and that they would be treated
the same Gs other strangers. They must
look out for themselves, and if any OF
them violated the law they would be
punished. Mrs. Smith tried to ees
tural society about getting the use OF the
race track, but be could not be found.
The park has been closed and could not
be occupied except by force, 80 Mrs.
Smith concluded to take the bali grounds
which are not in use.
What the newcomers are going to do
nobody knows. 1t ia not likely that the
citizens Will feed them moro than day
or two at the most, and the governor
has repeatedly said he has no power to
take money from the state treasury for
any such purpose. II has been inferred
from etatemente alleged to have been
made by Barker bsfore leaving Oakland
that he expected to, in some way, COM
pei the railroad company to take the
army east, but il is not easy to see how
they are going to capture any trains.
In the meantime the military officials
are on the alert and if any emergency
should arise TO justify it several hundred

The Sacramento Industrial Army X
ooiYes Hard Blow.

! The Sacramento Industrial Army Ro
ooives a Hard Blow.
SACRAMENTO, April 29.-The Industri-
al army business has received a mare
blow here. Colonel Inman of the
Stockton contingent, which came here
two weeks ago and has since gathered
in 250 more idle mea, is now under ar
rest in the city Jail charged with vs.
grsncy.
LAST night Warden Aull Of the Folsom
prison telephaned Chisf Of Police Drew
that an officer OF the prison had ideuti
fed lnman as one Van z. Carpenter, q
iour-term convict, VINO was discharged
from the penitentiary the day the
Stockton army arrived, and he told
Chief Drew how this fact could be yeri-
fed by marks on the mans body.
Captain Green went out 70 Sutter fort
and requested Colonel Inman to come in
and see Chief Drew, which he did. Very
much 20 his surprise he Was made 10
| take off his coat and vegt, and sure
enough, his arms bore the marks de-
/ scribed by Warden Aull. Inmsn asked
what it all meant, and was told that he
must be locked up for vsgrancy. lie
had on his peTeoE a revolver and $40 in
money.
Being asked if he was not an ex.
convict, he replied that he was, and
admitted having served three terms, two
Of them for stealing horses and buggies
while drunk, and one for forgery. War
den Aull was called up to day, and he
stated that Carpenter, alias Inman, was
released from Folsom prison on the 10Th
insl.. and in less than "a hours alter
ward was an officer in the Industrial
army, quartered at Agricultural park in
this city. He made his boast before he
lett that in q few days he would be at
the head OF one of these bands of Indus
trials.
Warden Aull says Carpenter or Inman
served two terms in San Quention and
two at Folsom. The first term Aull
could not tell about, but the second time
Carpenter went to the prison it was for
two years from Ventura county for rob-
berry. He was pArdoned by Governor
Stoneman February l, 1855, under the
belief that he was about to die ot con-
sumption. His third term was also for
robbery committed in Santa Clara
county, and again he was thought to be
dying when his term expired. His last
conviction was for forgery committed in
Contra Costa county.
Carpenter, or IumRn, as he is known
here, succeeded in having Colonel
Williams deposed week ago from the
command OF the local army and himself
elevated to that position. He is q rather
bright man, and his address is greatly
in his favor. He had succeeded in i'm.
pressing the city officials and others
with the idea that he was an honest
toiler, who had been unfortunate enough
to get out OF work and desired to do
something for the cause OF the so-called
Commonweal by leading host OF men
to Washington. just who Will succeed
him in command is not now known, but
the exposure of his criminal career will
doubtless have a bad effect on his fol-
lowers, by causing the public TO lose
confidence in the men composing the
band, few Of whom are known to any
citizens.
