ENGLAND SENDS A FLEET,
British Men-of-War Moving
Up the Yang Use Kiang
River.
China Must Make Immediate
Amends for the kuCheng
Outrages.

LONDON, Eng, Sept. 28.-The demon
stration of a powerful British squadron
proceeding up the Yang Use Kiang is the
sequence of the tacit refusal of the Peking
Government to satisfy the demands of the
Marquis of Salisbury for the punishment
of the late Vlceroy of Szechuen, whom
British Minister O'Connor reported to be
responsible for the outrages beginning in
May at the mission stations at Cheng Tu,
which were followed by the massacre at
Kucheng.
The Viceroys term of Office expired and
he left Cheng Tu, and the Picking Govern
ment tried to induce Minister O'Connor to
believe that the withdrawal of the Viceroy
had been enforced, and that this action on
the part of China ought to satisfy the
British Government. Lord Salisbury,
however, instructed the British Minister
that nothing would suffice less than pub
lie imperial decree banishing the Viceroy
beyond the frontiers of China, with a state
ment that the crime for which he was pun
ished was neglect to afford protection to the
missions. This action of Lord Salisbury
appears to have been prompted by the con-
victjon, doubtless based upon Foreign
once reports, that the ChlneSe Hteratl
abetted by most of the higher officials,
foment agitation against Europeans gen.
orally and not against the missions alone,
and that the degradation of the Viceroy
of Szechuen would be blow to the
literati and an effective example to the
whole of China.
The decisive attitude of England dis
poses of the report that the Foreign
Office entertained proposal to withdraw
the missionaries to treaty ports. 1t is
understood the United States Govern
ment, although not actively cooperating
with the British Government, has been
informed of and approves of the Iatter's
plans to protect the missions. which in
volve the strongest practical measures in
the event Of the squadron demonstration
not proving sufficient to wake up the
Government at Picking.

BOGUS COIN At STOCKTON,
Silver Half - Dollar That
Puzzled Even a Mint
Officer.
Agent Harris Collecting Evidence
Against Howell, the Alleged
Counterfeiter.

STOCKTON, CAL, Sept. 2S.-It appears
that Secret Service Agent Harris is leaving
no stone unturned in his endeavors to
secure the conviction of M. D. Howell for
counterfeiting. The detective was recently
in this city for the purpose OF collecting
facts to be used as evidence against Howell
at his third trial, and every body who met
him naturally OWNED the object of his
visit.
One day. shortly after Mr.. Harris visit,
Howell DO arded a California-street car at
Main street. When the conductor, Charles
Thornton, asked him for fare Howell
handed him half-dollar The conductor
thought the coin was light and told the
passenger of it, and that he believed it was
counterfeit. Howell offered to wager $40
with the conductor, but the latter would
not bet and the passenger left the car al
lowing the conductor to keep the coin.
Mr.. Thornton delivered the piece of
money, which he supposed to be bogus,
to Sheriff Cunningham, who LOANED" the
streetcar man so cents in consideration of
being given the supposed spurious four-bit
piece. The Sheriff examined the coin
through microscope and came to the
conclusion that it was good.
Mr.. Cunningham thought it nothing
DuC proper 10 Senu the coin TO secret SER
vice Agent Harris, although convinced of
its genuineness.
1t is said that Mr.. Harris upon examin-
ing it. declared it to be counterfeit, and it
was shown to Superintendent of the Mint
Daggett, who concurred in the opinion of
the Secret Service agent, but man of long
experience in the Mint agreed with Cum
ningham that the piece of money was
good. The faces of the half dollar appeared
all right, and if there is anything wrong
about the coin it is evidently in the COM
position. The four-bit piece has been turned
over to the assayer to ascertain whether it
contains the required amount of silver.
The morning following his experience
with the conductor, Howell called at the
Office of the street railroad company and
was given As cents. He asked for the re-
turn of the four-bit piece which he had
given the conductor, but was told that it
was in the possession of the Sheriff.

of water bearing land lying back and ad-
iacent to it, acquired through the sale OF
municipal bonds several years ago. An
election was held last year for the purpose
of voting an issue of bonds to the amount
of $4,000 the money to be used in de-
veloping the water on the city's acres.
The proposition was carried without one
dissenting vote. Bonds were issued and
sold to Messrs. Farson, Leach & Co., OF
Chicago, at premium exceeding $500,
while other cities at the same period could
sell their bonds only at par and then hav-
ing to deduct commissions paid there

Through the progressive Board of City
Trustees, composed of G. O. Monroe, presi-
dent. G. E. Slosson, A. Stedman, w. Zim-

of the water funds so advantageously, nine
tunnels have been driven into the noun

three miles direct into the homes of the

stored in reservoirs or exposed to contain

STOCKTON, CAL, Sept. 2S.-Superin-

Joaquin Valley road came in from off the
line tonight and reports fine progress in
every part of the construction work. The
pile-dIiver is now ten miles out, and the
force of br1dge-carpenters is following
closely behind.
On Tuesday Grant Brothers, the con-
tractors, will have finished fourteen
miles of the grade and will move their
camp four miles further on, or eighteen
miles from the city.
The sub-contractors will also move fur
Their on, and by the last of the week there
will be force Of graders working very
close to the Stanislaus River.
Grant Bros. have made two miles of
grade, and they estimate that at the pres
ent rate of progress they will complete the
grade to the river in twenty working DAYS.
The crossings of the Southern Pacific
track on Taylor street were completed to-
day, and the m ain line from East street to
the acknowledgements is now unbroken.
The engines will be brought out from
the Southern Pacific yards Tuesday.
A large force is at work in the material

rails to the grade outside the city limits.
in order that the track-laying there may
not be delayed.
The progress this week has been greater
than in any preceding one, and in the
history of railroad building in this State
such rapid and good work is not known.

The Pacific improvement Company is at

built before the commencement of the

cially strawberries, which are in great de-
mand by the leading hotels and clubs dur

From about 1900 acres of bearing orange
trees during the season of 1894-95 the

SAN BERNARDINO, CAL, Sept 2S.-
w. S. Hadley, the young man accused oil
passing bogus draft for 1925 on the First
National Bank of Redlands, has been left
to his fate, as his friends in Hillsdale
Mich, failed to make good the amount OF
his forgery. He was taken to Redlands
this afternoon to have his examination
continued.
The testimony introduced was that OF
the bank president and the cashier. both
OF whom testified that Hadley mailed the
draft to the bank to be placed to his credit,
and afterward got the draft cashed and
left.
After hearing the testimony, Judge
Baker bound Hadley over under $1,000
bonds. Hadley is very much depressed
over the failure of his friends to help him.

TERRORS At ET|WANDA,
Mexicans, Indians, and Half
Breeds Attack Innocent
Citizens.
Their Murderous Assaults Brighten
the Women and Children
From the Streets.

SAN BERNARDINO, CAL, Sept. 28.-
There has been a reign of terror at Ell
wanda, town twelve miles west of here,
the center of the grape industry of this
city. About $50 Mex1cans, half-breeds and
Indians are employed there temporarily in
the vineyards gathering the harvest.
They are paid once week, and that
always means big drunk.
For three or four days past 1t has not
been deemed safe for residents to appear
on the streets after dark. When sober the
men are we'll enough behaved, but whisky
puts murder into them, and they do not
confine their quarrels to themselves. Two
cutting scrapes occurred this week in
which Mexicans were badly knitted, and one
man will probably die.
Last night Mexican, out of deviltry,
kicked little girl into the street and was
promptly knocked down by Putnam Per-
dew, clerk in store. He watched his op-
portunity, and when Perdew was drawing
kerosene from barrel stole up behind
him and threw an ignited match into the
fluid. Fortunately, the kerosene did not
ignite.

smith, had a desperate fist-fght with
another Mexican, who struck child
