SAN LUIS REY SHOOTING,
The Notorious Isador Renteria
Adds Another Victim to
His List.
Ramon Araiza Mortaliy Wounded
for Interfering With a Wife
Beaten.

SAN DIEGO, CAL, Sept. Ramon
Araiza was shot last night by Isidor Rem
terra, an old settler in San Luis Rey Val
ley who has on several occasions been
forced to leave the country to escape arrest
for violent crimes.
Both men were living in brush booths,
erected close to the mission grounds at
San Luis Rey where the fiesta of San Luis
was celebrated two weeks ago. Araiza
conducted saloon and Renteria res
taurant. Renteria is married to the
mother of Araiza's wife.
Gus Gillen, who keeps store across the
road, was sitting in Araiza's booth talking
to him last night when they heard screams
of Renteria's wife in her booth. They ran
over, Araiza first and Gillen and Mrs.
Araiza following.
When they were opposite the front of
the restaurant they saw Renteria holding
When he saw the party coming he left his
wife and took up Winchester rifle which
was standing in corner.
AraiZa was then about at the entrance of
the place. Renteria fired at him, the bull
let striking mirror hanging on the front
post and glancing off struck Araiza in the
abdomen, inficting mortal wound, in the
opinion of his physician.
In short time all the neighbors were at
the scene, and by the time the wounded
man was cared for Renteria had disap-
peared. A crowd started out in search Of
the murderer, but he was not found.
Constable Hubert took his trail yester-
day and tracked him to Grid, a portion of
the Montserrat ranch, where all trace of
him was lost. :. Renteria was on foot, but
probably lost no time in picking up a
horse.
Sheriff Jennings was notified, and all
the constables in the county are on the
lookout for Renteria. 1t is believed he
made Decline for Lower California.

CARSON BULLION FOUND
Sensational Story of a Daily
Paper Concerning the
Mint Scandal.
Asserts That the Attorneys for the
Defense Have Unearthed the
Stolen Metal.

CARSON, New, Sept. THE Evening
Tribune of this city claims to have made
sensational discoveries in connection with
the mint cases. The following appeared
in to-night's issue of the paper:
"The Tribune is going to predict again
in the mint cases. 1t is that there is a
them. 1t predicts that at the trial in No
vember, and probably before, the facts OF
two bullion discoveries VIII be made known
to the public. The exact amounts of the
bullion find the Tribune is not yet able to
state, and the location of the finds it is not
disposed to make known yet either. The
first find was made on or about the 28th OF
August, and the latter, say yesterday.
1.-THE August discovery consisted Of gold
bullion such as may be seen in some
United States minis, possibly the one in
Carson. That found yesterday was fine
gold. pure and simple. The first lot is not
in Carson. The second is, and is supposed
to have been dug out of an old vault.
Neither the Government detectives nor
the officials had any hand in the discov-
cry, but enough thoroughly responsible
and reliable men know of the whole mat
ter to make it right. The discovery was
made by the defense in the mint cases.
They will not admit it, but they do not
deny it, either. When the attorneys for
defendants found the silver bullion in Pick
ler's yard it was almost Immediately taken
from the magistrate in whose hands they
placed it and claimed by the Government
representatives, who consulted with them
no further. This kind of treatment did
not please the lawyers, and they then and
there resolved to hunt on their own re-
sponsibility thereafter without resorting to
search warrants and without inviting the
Government detectives to be present.
That the new plan has been successful the
Tribune assumes the responsibility of as
sorting as fact, and the public will not
long remain in ignorance of the full par
ticulars.
ut is known that local detectives have
been working on the case some time in
different places-Reno, Carson and Vir-
ginia. It is known that the mint was in
spected couple of days ago by the de-
fepse."

ACROSS MOJAVE DESERT.
Alfred in Mems Clothes, She
Made the Journey as a
Common Tramp.
SEEKING A STOLEN CHILD.
Trainmen Take Pity on the Mas
querader and Raise a Purse
to Assist Her.

sac BERNARDINO, CAL, Sept. IA
pretty, biue-eyed woman, with soft
sweet voice, and showing by her speech
that she was not unrefned, arrived here
to-day, having ridden over 500 miles upon
the brakebeam of through freight on the
Santa Fe Railroad. Most of this distance
was over the hot Mojave desert.
The woman is in search OF her stolen
child. Her story bore upon its face such
evidence of genuineness that it touched
the hearts of the trainmen, who every day
in the year deal with the real hobo and are
careless of this worthless class.
The sex of this braKebeam tourist was
discovered at Daggett, about eighty miles
east of here, yesterday morning. The
woman was dressed in boys clothes. Her
walk was noticed by brakeman who was
chasing out the tramps-one of his regular
duties-and he at once was satisfied that
she was masqueradlng.
1t was the first time in fifteen years OF
railroading that he had witnessed a
woman undertaking and accomplishing
this perilous ride.
The pretty tourist politely but firmly de-
clined to give her name or her residence,
but with evident candor told that she had
been deserted by her husband, who had
taken with him their little girl aged
years.
She heard recently that he had gone to
Oregon and placed the girl in an orphan
asylum. She was entirely without means,
was too proud to beg where she was
known, and made up her mind to steal
rides as far as Los Angeles, where she
hoped to find charity enough to enable
her to continue on her journey. If not,
then it would have to be more brakebeam
riding.
The train crew became interested in her
behalf, took her into the caboose, and
when they reached Barstowy the division
terminus, secured an outfit of feminine
wearing-apparel. They raised a small
purse, got pass for her into Los Angeles
and gave her escort to this city, where she
hreakfasted at the depot, and left by the
$40 train.
The railroad men hope to secure trans
portation for her to Oregon. At breakfast
it was noticed that her complexion, natu-
rally fair and soft, had not suffered much
by the 500-mile journey through the heat
and dust, but her hands were stained,
bruised and rough. Her brown hair had
been cut short. She bore herself with mod
esty and no little dignity, and her womanly
bearing served as her strongest protector.

WESTON'S BOLD ROBBER.
Deputy Reynolds Under Arrest
for Looting d Postoffice
Strong Box.
His Story OF an Invasion by Masked
Men Proves to Have Been
Imaginative,

PENDLETON, Or, Sept IA thorough
investigation of the Weston Postoffice rob-
berry resulted in the arrest of George M.
Reynolds, who was in charge of the Office
at the time Postmaster Van Wrinkle was
taking an outing in the mountains.
Deputy Sheriff Kimberk went to Weston
last night, swore out complaint and took
Reynolds into custody. Reynolds refused
to attempt to find bondsmen and went to
jail over night.
The robbery occurred two weeks ago,
when between $500 and $500 was taken
from the Postoffice safe between the hours
of 6 and 6 80 P. M.
Deputy Reynolds claimed he went to
supper and came back to find the safe
rifed and the money gone. Men were in
the vicinity OF the postofice at the time,
and two sat on the steps ten feet from the
rear door through which Reynolds claimed
the robbers entered
A peculiar circumstance was that the
lock OF the rear door was found removed
by taking out the screws from the inside,
as though to make it appear that some one
had entered the building in that way.

SANTA BARBARA,s MYSTERY.

Yam Hxbbard's Contpanions EndeaUor
to ProUe That He Still Lives.
SANTA BARBARA, CAL, Sept. ~.
G. de La Cuesta, the Deputy Sheriff who
was one of the party led to Idaho by Henry
Van Hubbard, supposed to have been
murdered at Florence, to-day telegraphed
to Idaho officials for full particulars con-
corning the alleged discovery of Van Hub
bard's body. De la Cuesta belongs to one of
the most aristocratic old Italian families
in Southern California, his father, DIR. de
la Cuesta, having formerly owned the
whole of the great College rancho, cover
ing the entire valley of the Santa Ynez,
where in early days he entertained friend
and stranger with princely hospitality.
De la Cuesta has his own plan for prov
ing that Van Hubbard is still in the land
OF the living. He states that Van Hub
bard has sweetheart down in Ventura, to
whom he never failed to write daily. He
does not know the girls name, but has
sent word to Florencio Ruiz, another of
the incriminated party, who does know,
and upon receiving it will begin an active
investigation at that place to ascertain if
letters from Van Hubbard have not been
steadily arriving.
