FRESNO, CAL, July 9.-Miss Maggie
Moore, II years of age, whose parents live
in this city, eloped to-day with E. M.
Augustine, a Portuguese hotel-keeper.
The young lady has of late been en-
ployed by Augustine as waitress, and about

tons. The parents strongly objected, and
the girl promised not to keep company
with him. She retained her position as
waitress, however.
This morning before daylight Miss
Moore removed her effects from her room
at her parents home through window.
They were taken to Augustine hotel.
Shortly afterward Augustine hired a
buggy and the couple left for Selma, fifteen
miles south of here, to get married. Moth
ing has been heard of them since. 1t is
supposed that they will wait until the
storm blows over and then return.
Augustine is u years old. 1t is reported
that he has wife living in Sacramento.

angry and say they will prosecute Angus
tine for perjury in securing the marriage

TROUBLE OVER A ROAD.
The Victim Defied the Au-
thority of the Local
Officials.
DESTROYED A COUNTY BRIDGE.
He Met His Death While Attempt
ing to Prevent Its Re-
construction.

SAN DIEGO, CAL, July 9.-Tomas c.
Ruiz, Mexican, II years of age, was shot
and killed at 6 o'clock tonight by Con-
stable George Roberts of Mission Town
ship.
The shooting occurred at Eucalyptus
Canyon on the Spring Valley road, where
Roberts had been sent to see to the rebuild
ing of the bridge torn down by Ruiz.
Trouble had occurred before between
Ruiz and the authorities over the road. the
Mexican trying to prevent the county
from establishing road through the can
yon on land claimed to be owned by Ruiz
employers, the Manning family.
Ruiz, some weeks ago, inclosed the road
with wire fence, and with a Winchester
defled passers-by to cut the wires. Con-
stable Roberts removed the fence, and
early this month Ruiz tore down the
bridge, rendering the road impossible.
Roberts arrested HIM for malicious mis-
chief, and he was under $500 bond to ap-
pear for trial.
Roberts was ordered to rebuild the
bridge, and went to-day with Herbert
Eaton and two teamsters to the spot
Roberts and Eaton arrived first, and while
Eaton was attending to the team the shoot
ing occurred.
Roberts, who came in Immediately and
gave himself up, told the story as follows:
"Ruiz came up on horseback and asked
me what intended to do and l told him
put in the bridge. He said, You can't
piled that the bridge would never be re-

there in few minutes. He became very
excited, jumped off his horse and came for
me. drew my gun and told him to stand
back. But he came on and hit him over
the head with the butt end OF my pistol.
Then he came for me again and shot him.
Eaton came up then and l told him what
had occurred and that would come into
town and give myself up"
Eaton said he was not present at the
shooting, but heard high words regarding
the culvert, and the pistol shot. Running
to the scene, be found the Mexican breath
ing his last and Roberts standing with his
smoking gun. Roberts did not try to get
away, and in fact suggested giving him
self up.
Ruiz was shot just above and behind the
ieIt ear ana uVed only q lew moments.
The two teamsters we're left with the body
and Roberts and Eaton came to the city,
where the former gave himself up, surren-
dering his pistol. He said he was sorry for
the act, but did not know whether Ruiz
was armed or not and acted only in self
defense.
Ruiz, though young, was hard charac-
ter, having been in several scrapes, while
Roberts is peaceable citizen.

BUREAU OF LABOR.
A Small Appropriation for the Collection
of Valuable Statistics.


Labor Commissioner Fitzgerald has re-
ceived severe setback in the shape of a
letter from Controller E. P. Colgan which
reads:
l am in receipt of your letter OF the 25th
inst regarding salaries of assistants contingent
expenses, etc.. of the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
After careful inspection of the law and in
view of recent opinions rendered by our Attor-
ney-General in cases almost parallel. am of the
opinion that under the act of 1882 amendatory
OF the act creating the bureau, will be justi-
flee rent, salaries of assistants and contingent
expenses not to excess of $4,000.
This sum is $1,000 less than the amount
allowed for the Office in previous years.
Heretofore all the deputies, or special
agents as they are called, received $100 a
month. Mr.. Fitzgerald was forced to
make a cut of $40 in the salaries of his
three men. Under the circumstances he
will have to stand nearly all of the ex-
pense of the late japanese cody investiga-
ton, the fitting of his Office for the free
employment bureau and the rental of a
small room necessary to the bureau. Even
his travelling expenses will have to come
out OF his own pocket. This sum does not
even permit the hiring of janitor. and
there is some talk of setting Deputies
Dam and Greene to work cleaning wood
work and sweeping out the offices. Mr..
Fitzgerald states that Notwithstanding
this paralyZing cut he will not abandon
any of the work of his bureau nor the free
employment feature for the want of funds.
