WADE HAMPTON'S OPINIONS.
Expresses Himself With Great
Emphasis.
IN FAVOR OF THE FUNDING BILL
Surprised That CaIifornians Should
Criticize Such Pretty Proper
ties-Southern Politics.

General Wade Hampton OF South Caro-
lima, United States Commissioner of
Railroads, is stopping at the Palace. With
him are Charles E. Thomas and l.. r.
Haskell, secretaries. and Captain Rawlins
Lowndes, also of South Carolina, friend.
General Hampton is a hardy and hand
some old gentleman. wearing the side
whiskerS and mustache which are more
or less historic.
He comes on his business of inspecting
the railroad property in which the Gov
eminent, as creditor, has an interest. He
is not a stranger to California, as he has
been here before on the same business.
His visit just now is of peculiar inter-
est, or rather he is of peculiar interest
because of his relationship to the railroad,
which is the feature Of the State campaign
just opening.
The question of interest is, What does
General Hampton, Government Railroad
Commissioner, think of Government
ownership of the Pacihc railroads?
Well, he is against it-emphatically so.
mo man who knows anything about
the matter has any but one reply to that
question:" he said. 1T is folly of the
rankest kind and is only fit for Populists
TO talk about But you people in Cali
fornia do not seem to know how very well
of you are in the matter of roiiroad faciIi-
ties, and | shouldn't wonder If it would
do you good 10 have some Of these vague
and unbusiness-like theories carried out
for a while.
LET us look at 1t fairly in the face" he
went on. 1.-The Government takes the
railroads and with it, of course, their in
debtedness. The Government is you and
l and the rest of us. and these debts be-
come ours-debts of billions. Do we get
satisf action by cheap fares and freIghts |?
Not at all, for the railroad has to be
operated so that 1t will help US to pay the
debts or at least so as to keep even-keep
from piling up any further obligations. In
a word it would have to be. or least ought
to be, operated on as good business prin-
ciples as the private owners observe. If
placed under the management OF some of
our Populst theorists, however IL would
likely present sorry spectacle in a very
short time"
Having these prom bounced views again st
Government ownership it is not surprising
that the Commits sioner thinks much more
kindly of the Reilly funding bill than do
the people of California. He said that he
was by no means familiar with the pro-
visions of the bill, but from his general
understanding of ii he thought it was very
near what was wanted.
General Hampton said that his plans
were not complete as to mis- present tour
that he had only fairly started, and
thought it probable that he would remain
here some little time. His business, he
said. was simply to examine those proper
ties in which the Government has a fnan-
cial interest, and to report upon them-not

WHO SHOT CASH ?
Coroner Hughes Probing
a Mystery.
While Dying the Murdered Man Re-
fused to Name His SIayer-Wit-
nesses at Willows Wanted.

Coroner Hughes is trying TO find out who is
responsible for the death OF ", w. Cash the
gambler, who was shot at Willows on August
4 and died five days later at the German hos
pital in this city. The crime is yelled in mys-
terry. When 1t was committed Cash's associ-
ates al Willows said that he had been shot by a
burglar, bat it is now known that this story
was untrue, and 1t is believed that his com
panlons know more about the crime than they
are willing to tell.
Mrs. Cash, the widow OF the dead man. was
examined yesterday. She said that when her
husband was tax en- to this city he told her that
he was shot by bullet from his own pistol,
She asked him just before he died who fired
the shot, and be answered that it would do her
no good TO know. One of his companions at
willows, John Roberts, seldom left his side
and she had few opportunities to speak to him
alone.
Roberts is street fakir, who sells his wares
from small stand on Pine street, near Mont
g0mery. He went with Cash. Alexander Man.
ders0n ana Gus Frye to willows a few DAYS
before the shooting. He testified that Cash
and Henderson were interested in a spindle
game, and that Henderson had purchased a
saloon, where he and Cash, late on the night of
August IA, met 10 divide the profits of the
spindle game. The profits amounted to only
81 80, and Henderson was disguised.
After leaving the saloon Roberts and Cash
went 10 the Commercial House and climbed the
stairs to Cash's room. Cash was ahead and
Roberts said that as he entered the apartment
man stepped from behind the door and de-
manded his money.

AFTER BANCROFT.
N. j. Stone Begins An
other Action at Law.
f1e Wants One Hundred Thousand
Dollars From the Historian
for Alleged Fraud.

The feud that has been existing between n.
j. Stone and Hubert II. Bancroft for some two
years gives indications Of having many phases
to 1t before the courts have decided who is in
the right and who is in the wrong.
On Tuesday Stone filed a complaint in the Su-
perior Court against Bancroft, and alleged that
the latter had cOnsplred TO defraud him OF his
stock In the History Building Company. The
conspiracy consisted in the formation of the
California Book Company, which abs orbed all
the interests Of the History Company. Assess.
ments were levied upon the stock then to
''ireeZe out" as Stone said, his interest in the
concern. He asked for an Injunction re strain
ing Bancroft and his dummy" directors. as he
called them, from selling out his stock under
the delinquent assessment law.
Yesterday Stone made his second move in his
game OF retaliation against Bancroft Through
bis attorneys, Reddy, Campbell and Metson,
he filed suit In Martinez against II. Il. Ban
croft TO recover Judgment for 100000. In
his complaint he alleges that Bancroft, T. A. C.
Dorland (slnce deceased) and George II. Nor
rlson entered into conspiracy TO ruin his good
name aud reputation generally.
The first move in this alleged conspiracy,
according 10 the complaint, was made in Janu.
airy, 1892. lwben Bancroft beg an legal proceed
ings against Stone, and accused him OF frand
and miSmanagr ment In connection with the
History Company. Bancroft wanted $4,000
but before the case came 10 trial he consented
TO a dismissal.
In May, 1892, Bancroft again went after
Stones scalp, as it we're. and entered suit for
damages, claiming that Stone sold stock and
material belonging TO the company at rates
that were below cost. The suit was decided in
Stones favor and when All appeal was taken to
the Supreme Court that tribunal sustained the
action OF the lower court. much TO bIr. Ban
crOfts disgust.
Stone claims that by reason OF said false
fraudulent aud unfounded suits he has been
compelled to pay out and eXpend in the de-
tense OF the same $4,000; also that he has
been damaged by reason of tile fraudulent con-
spiracies and combinations fully 100000,
hence the suits.

THE SLINKEY CONCERT.
San FranciscO's New Prima Donna
Given an Ovation.

Miss Lillian X. Slinkey, San Franclsco's
latest contribution TO the ranks of prima
donnas. received perfect ovation last evening
at Metropolitan Temple.
The event was a grand testimonial concert
rendered prior to her departure for Italy, where
she Intends completing her musical studies
with view OF going upon the stage.
Unfortunately Miss Slinkey has been Ill for
some days past, and it was not until Yesterday
noon that she left her sick bed to prepare for
the evening concert, which at such late hour
1t was found impossible to postpone.
Her singing revealed somewhat OF q strain
which, though perceptible in the soft coloring
10 some degree, would almost have passed I'M
noticed In the full chest tones had It not been
for slight hoarseness which OccasiOned the
artist much apparent uneasiness In clearing the
vocal passages.
Miss SIinkey possesses a pure soprano Of
musical power and sweetness. Her range is
extensive and especially pure in the upper
tones.
Added TO the good voice Is q pleasing pres
ence aud faultlesS yocaZatIOn.
In her opening solo, "Adieu, My Native
Land" from "EAfricaine," Miss SIinkey found
ample opportunity TO display her abilities,
which she did under the circumstances to great
advantage. Her rendition OF cavatlna from
LA Sonnambula" was decidedly pleasing, aud
as an encore she sang with great effect The
Last Rose Of Summer"
She was also heard to great advantage in a
quartetfrom Pinsutps 81 CaDta StOrie," and a
trio from 81 LOMBARD" the former being rem
deIed in an exceptionally artistic manner.
or the support too much can hardly be said In
praise. Charles Prince won much well de-

of TRANSCRIPTION of the minstrel Boy" with
sparkling varia ions, while Nine. Angelina

Algeri'' TO The admiration of ALL
Charles II. HolZ, the bass, sang "Big Ben"
with much feeling. He has powerful voice of
great range, and more than usual fuIlness In
the lower tones. He sang with taste and ex-

Considering all the event was a rouslng sue
cess. and served as a fitting testimonial 10 the
young lady whose abilities were so highly ap-
prscated.

CAKE ~ YELLED THE CROWD
One Exciting Contest at the Tug
War,

An informal tug-of-war entertainment was
given at Central Park last night In presence Of
about 1000 people. 1t had been announced
| that this series of contests was the result OF
disputes as TO the real merit of various teams,
which was not quite satisfactorily settled by
the international tournament. Each team, so
1t was claimed, could pull any other team In
existence, and so TO definitely determine which
was best struggle took place last night.
The exhibition was not exciting excepting
when row arose over the pull between Ger
many and Russia, In which taxing and bribery

Captain Miller of the American limited
team and Captain Barnholt of the German
team pulled for $50 side. Miller won in
minutes ana % seconds without ever giving
his opponent an inch OF the rope.
The lightweight Irish and German teams
pulled. There were some heavy-weghts among
the Germans, but they made no show of SU-

rope went their way like fash giving them
victory in 6 minutes and 15 seconds. Betting

expecting TO get good round sum, but only to
be disappointed. IL was claimed that The re-
suit had been prearranged.
When the Germans were being hauled over
the ropes Henry MuRge, judge and prOmpter OF
Ing. Meadows jumped from the eleats and fol-
lowed Mugge, and presently another big fellow
was hot after Meadows TO night him. A SPAR

IN BAD SHAPE.
The Arena Club Finds the New City
Prison in Need of CLEANING.

ANGCd vi AtCdIIluQs
Arena Club No. again took up the subject
of prison reform at their meeting last evening
and instead OF devOtIng the time to debate ana
discussion the members listened to the report
OF committee which was appointed to invest
igate the management OF the city prisons at a
previous meeting. Mr.. Gleeser, chairman,
stated that the committee had made visit to
the new City Hall and found that the prisoners
were In a deplOrable condition and that this
state OF things had been brought about by the
neglect and carelessnesS of the officials in
charge.
Mi. Gleeser said that there is city ordinance
be upon the streets after certain hour without
parents or a guardian. This municipal law ha
been the means OF filling the new City Hall
prison with large number OF children, a ma
jority Of them being very small. He also re-
ported tDat these little ones were confined In
cells near by or adjoining the cells Of hardened
criminals, and that the language which was
being used IN the presence OF these young boys
and girls was vile and boisterous. The COM
mittee requested the prsOn-keepers TO give
the youngsters apartments separate from the
others.
MIR. GleeSer also announced that incarcerated
women were perhaps In d worse condition than
| the others. Their cells were damp, poorly ven.
| tilated and gloomy. Every morning their linen
| Is wet by the careless use OF the hose which IL
used in cleaning the floors, and no opportunity
| is afforded the unfortunate ones to dry their
| wet garments, the heat OF the body being the
only source which they possess of drying their
| soiled clothes.
The committee found the men covered with
| vermiD. IL abounded in immense quantities
throughout The prison and no care was being
taken TO destroy IT, When a new convict was

and the objection was at first sustained,
but on johnson sho wing that similar lati-
tude had been given TO the other side in
