FIRE At BENIoLA.
Destruction Of an Immense Warehouse
Stored Vfth Wheat.

Destruction Of an Immense Warehouse
Stored Vfth WheGt.
= BENTCIA, CAL, April 12-The immense
warehouse and Office OF Balfour, Guthrie &
Co., together with the contents, was en-
tirely destroyed by fire this forenoon. The
blaze was discovered shortly after 10
o'clock and the entire Fire Department
was called out.
There were no hydrants on the wharf,
and before it was possible to get stream
of water on the flames they had made such
headway that nothing could be done by
the fremen except to prevent the flames
from destroying the wharf.
The amount of property destroyed will
amount TO more than $4,000, as there was
stored in the warehouse $500 tons of wheat
g belonging to the Fair estate.
The warehouse was 400 feet long, and a
substantial building, having all the i'm
provements for handling grain, with rail-
road tracks on both sides. The watch
man, Mr.. Pinkham, tells this story:
81 had left the Office about twenty
minutes to attend to the warehouse, when
my attention was called by some one
shouting to me that the Office was on fire.
;. ~ hastened back as fast as l could and
found that the fire was breaking out of the
windows. 1 am unable to account for the
origin of the blaze, but hardly think it was
the work of incendiaries."
The watchman was badly burned about
the face and hands in trying to extinguish
the fire.

FRESNO BANK FAILURE,
elimination of a Struggle
Which Began With the
Panic of 1898.
and Savings Bank to Be
Paid In Full.

FRESNO, CAL, April 12.-The Fresno
Loan and Savings Bank suspended business
this morning. A notice on the door says:
Depositors will be paid in full, but our in
ability to realize on securities makes it impos-
sible to meet demands.
From Vice President e. F. Bernard, who
became connected with the management
in August, 1894, it is learned that the fail
ure is Que to accommodating interest on real
estate mortgages and the inability to make
other collections due. The struggle began
In the panic of 1893, and they were forced
to close their doors III June, 1894, for day
or so, but continued business.
There is due depositors $412, ,478, about
equally divided between the commercial
and savings depositors. Their total assets
amount to $4,000, which includes notes
and mortgages secured by real estate to
the amount of $454,71 The bank premises
and other real estate is valued at $175 900,
and the amount of actual cash is $S1, 900.
Allowing $780, 900 for shrinkage in value of
real estate and worthless securities they
still have assets amounting to 100000
more than liabilities.
The other banks have offered to take
the commercial business off the Loan and
Savings Banks hands, dividing equally
between three banks-First National
Fresno National and Farmers
There is no probability of run on any of
the Fresno banks on account of the suspen-
sion of the Loan and Savings Bank. Peo-
pie are not excited over it, and the assur-
ance of the bank officials that depositors
will be paid in full is generally believed,
and there is better feeling than might have
been expected.
The other banks are well prepared to
stand run, if one should come, and they
are feeling no uneasiness. In fact the
bankers of Fresno held meeting to-day
to consider the advisability of assuming
liability for 100000 of the debts due by
the closed hank

Another Day Consumed in the Taking of
Eridenee against Professor Sanders.
FRESNO, CAL, April 12.-Several jurors
IN the Sanders forgery case complained to-
day of feeling i'll, and asked that the at
torneys bring the trial to conclusion as
soon as possible.
The county has been at a very heavy ex-
pense in the investigation of the Wootton
case, and it was manifestly impossible to
cut short the testimony on either side with
out prejudice to the interest of justice on
both sides. Judge Webb rescinded the
order committing the jury to the custody
of the Sheriff, and permitted the jurors to
go home each evening, with a caution not
to talk about the case or read the news
papers.
The testimony to-day bore almost ex-
clusively on the book from which the
forged draft is presumed to have been torn,
and the evidence of grand jurors and
others was submitted to show that when
they examined it there were forty-nine
uniform leaves and one stub. Ex-District
Attorney Church testified that since then
he had permitted counsel for the defense
to remove six or seven of the leaves for
the purpose of examination and that a
writing had been given to that effect. The
prosecution will close its testimony to-
morrow morning.

Germenia, the little Portuguese woman who
=. called at the police station a week ago and
reported to the sergeant in charge that she
had. been beaten by Manuel g. Dandried,
in whose service she was employed, died
last night.
The woman's story, as related to the
authorities through the aid Of an inter-
.-preter, was both sad and unusual. She
said that two years ago Dandried per
suaded her to leave her native home in
sunny Portugal, and offered what seemed
to her fabulous wages to come to Cali
sornia and act as his servant. She gladly
accepted his offer, and came only to find
herself in position of veritabIe slavery.
:: Since her arrival Dandried has fre-
.ouently beaten her. The cause of the last
beating she received was trivial one. A
few small turkeys had disappeared and
Dandried accused his nephew, boy OF
=. tender years, of having killed them, and
proceeded to chastise him numerically.
The woman interfered in the lads behalf
and was knocked down and repeatedly
kicked, despite her being in delicate health
at the time.
from the euecCS OF JnlS aSSdulI Tue
woman was taken sick and a physician
was called in. He found upon examina-
tion that it would be necessary, in order to
save the woman's life, to perform an ope-
ration. This was done successfully.
The woman afterward complained of
great pain in her side and declared that
: the bandages were too tight. DaRdried,
without notifying the physician in charge,
cut the retaining bands with pair OF
scissors. Internal hemorrhage ensued and
the woman died.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, April 12.-The
announcement that the Southern Pacific
had withdrawn from sale tickets for St.
Paul and Minnesota points via Ell Paso,
Fort Worth and Kansas City and also by
the northern route via Ogden and Kansas
City, turns out to be only partially correct.
The southern gateway to extreme northern
points is still open, but no more tickets are
being offered via Ogden and Kansas City.
While the Southern Pacific Company offers
no official reason for the action taken it
is supposed to be simply on the score of
economy.

Nevada County Detectives Pursue a
Man Thought to Be Bogard's
Slayer.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, April 12'-On the
arrival of the freight train known in rail-
road men parlance as No. 6, which reaches
this city at 2 o'clock A. NJ, large force of
detectives, police and yardmen were on
hand. They Immediately surrounded the
train and instituted search for the sup
posed murderer of Sheriff Bogard, they
having been notified by telegraph that he
had boarded the train at Colfax and was
afterward seen in Rocklin.
As the long line of freightcars came to a
standstill the engineer, having been sig
nailed to stop few blocks from the depot,
the assembled forces closed in on all sides,
and Policeman Douglas, discovering man
seated on the bumpers between the two
head cars, made a rush for him. The
man at once sprang to the ground on the
opposite side of the train, at the same time
making a motion as though to draw
weapon. The officer compelled the man
to throw up his hands.
/ BY this time Detective Ahern arrived at
the side of the supposed desperado, and
while Policeman Douglas kept him COW
cred with his revolver Ahern searched
him, the rest of the force with drawn
revolvers standing guard.
They were chagrined to find that their
captive was an inoffensive Swede, who
aid not possess an extensive command of
the Anglo-Saxon tongue and was nearly
frightened to death. In general appear
ance he bore resemblance to Brady, but
his meek demeanor would have touched
even that notorious outlaw with pity.
Word was received to-day from the de-
tectives in Nevada County that the man
they were after had been seen in the neigh
borhood of Columb bian Hill, and that they
were close upon his track. They claim
that they will capture him without doubt
They are not positive that he will prove
to be Brady, but say that several who have
encountered the fugitive recognize him as
the man wanted, by aid of the photos in
the possession of the pursuing force. He
is travelling on foot and through country
which is almost impossible.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, April 12.-There
is sweeping retrenchment to be made on
the part of the Southern Pacific Company
on the first of the coming month, that will
throw an entire division force out of en-
ployment, add seventy miles more of the
road to the Sacramento division, and place
the added care of this amount of track to
the already arduous duties of Superin-
tendent ]. B. Wright.
The company has decided to combine
the Truckee division with the Sacramento
hill division and place this combination
under charge of the present superintend-
ent of the latter division. This will neces-
state an addition TO the present force of
clerks in the Sacramento Office, but the
removal of the headquarters of the Truckee
division from Wadsworth and the removal
of one superintendent will result in con-
siderable saving to the company. Super
ntendent Agler, who has been in charge
of the Truckee division, will assume COM
mand over the Ogden division, and will
remove to that city.
