Criminal Record of a Burglar Sent Up

Los ANGELES, Nov. S.-The police are
gathering information against the burg
lar, j. B. Bright, who was recently sem
fenced to the penitentiary for burglariz-
ing the rooms of Mrs. j. G. Noble at the

ington, D. c., for robbing Mrs. James
Brown-Potter of over $1,000 worth of
diamonds, while she was stopping at one
of the leading hotels OF the capital city.
He has the distinction of being the only
man who ever broke out of the Washing
ton City Jail and eluded arrest. After
leaving Washington he went to Florida,
where he had all of the leading hotel pro-
prietors distracted on account of his
smooth work. While in Washington

Hamburg Shippers Indignant at the
Action of Prussian Officials.
BERLIN, Nov. Sit has come to the
knowledge of the United States Embassy
that the pretense that the prohibition
against the landing of American cattle in
Germany was based on sanitary reasons
is without foundation. 1t appears that
the Hamburg sanitary authorities passed
two cargoes of the cattle in question as
healthy, and thereupon Prussian sani-
tary officers were ordered to Hamburg
and subsequently announced that the
cattle were afflicted with Texas fever.
The cattle-shippers of Hamburg are in
dlgnaat at the action of the Prussian au-
thorities, as they have recently built four
cattle steamers for the American service,
and these have been rendered useless by
the prohlbitory orders recently issued

SAN Francisco, Nov. S.-The Southern
Pacific officials announce that on Jam
>uary 1st new schedule of freight rates
will be put in force, by which a material
reduction in the cost of hauling grain
from the interior TO tide-water will be
Imade. The reason assigned for the re-
:duction is that farmers are unable TO raise
grain at the present rates. To prevent a
falling off i'll grain production and en-
courage farmers, the reduction will be
especially great for points at some dis
tance from tide-water. Applying the re-
duction on the tonnage to tide-water in
1S93-94, it amounts to reduction OF prac-
tically S233, 900.
