cisco, and also that he was going to settle
up an estate. He was very free with his
money when with her, and after theater
hours they spent a good portion of the
night in drinking and in other amusc-
ments.
Another girl named Mabel Lee. who
stated that she met Hammond in San
troubled about some estate in which he
was interested. To her he said he might
go to Salt Lake City, and even across the
Atlantic.
1t is also stated by those who say they
knew him that he gambled and frequently
lost considerable sums at poker, and
when Booth was here he paid big prem
ium for tickets. In other matters he is
reported to have been extravagant and
his fight was greatly felt by his wife and
aged mother.
Hammond's jewelry bills were large as
compared to his salary. Mr.. Roth said
that Hammond's bills amounted to about
$500 or $500 every month, and that until
the last bill, contracted just previous to
his departure, he had always received his
money upon the presentation of them.
1t was ascertained that while Ham
mond had filed his bond, he had not filed
his certificate of elect ion. and whether
this will make any difference in the hold
ing powers of the bond is question
which will arise. 1t is claimed that the
bond is so poorly written and filled that it
will not hold good in court. This bond

PENALTY OF THE FREE PASS
Statement Made by the Man Who Ruled
q Continent
The Indictment Was the Outgrowth Of the
Trouble With the American Rail-
way Union Last Year

NEW YORK, April 22.-Collis 7. Hunt
inqton. president OF the Southern Pacific
railway, was arrested today on the charge
of giving a free pass to one Frank Stone
in violation of the interstate commerce
law. President Huntington was arraigned
before United States Commissioner
Shields. He was represented by Fred
erick r. Coudert. Huntington admitted
his indemnity. He was taken before Judge
Brown of the United States district court
for warrant OF removal to California;.
The indictment against Huntington
was found on March 26th in San Fran
cisco. Counsel went before Judge Brown
of the United States district court, and
hearing was fixed for next Thursday at
O clock, Huntington meantime being al
lowed to go on his own recognizance.
Huntington said to a reporter. after the
proceedings before Commissioner Shields:
II have known Frank Stone twenty-five
years. He is San Francisco lawyer. l
would not call him a wicked man be-
things. He is an innocent kind of fell
low. l suppose he started this thing be-
cause piqued him in some way or other,

him a pass. probably | did, but give

not so stamped and he took advantage OF
it. l don't know anything about the
matter beyond that, for don pay any
attention to such things; in fact don't
care one penny one way or the other. 1t
don't amount to anything anyhow.

in the court this morning. Some routine
business l suppose it was, but did not
pay any. attention. Arrests are made
among high and low and criminal proceed
ure is not confined to any class. | do not
know what will be done. | guess Frank
got pass all right, but l have not time
to attend to all the details.
II have too much else to do. l think
the root of the whole matter lies in the
fact that when l became president of the
Southern Pacific railroad, l discharged
twenty-three men in San Francisco who
we're, as far as l coud see. mere political
agents and go-betweens for politicians.
They did no work for the railway that
could discover, so | cut them off. Per-
haps they are hungry now, and have got

Violation of Two Ordinances

In giving the name of the floral COM
mittee that appeared in the parade on Ell
Dia de las Flores, mistake was made in
the insertion of DR.. lie Moyne Wills
name and the omission of Mr.. Arthur
Brady.
So much credit is due to the untiring
efforts of the committee and the undis-
puted success of the floral parade. it is
just that repeated and correct mention
should be made of their names.
The distribution of the flowers at the
tribunes, and the floral decorations of
the throne were under the direction of
Mr.. NJ S. severance.
Through the courtesy OF Mr.. William
Pridham all flowers sent from the country
were delivered free of charge by Wells,
Fargo & Co.
Another omission that was quite unin-
territorial was the naming in the report of
the Judges who awarded the prizes at La
Fiesta ball. Colonel H. G. Otis of the
Times, and T. A. Lewis, assistant post
master, executed faithfully and well the
arduous duty of judging the impersona-
tons and their varying merits.
A correspondent over the signature
Carnation asks the following pertinent
questions: Whose carriage in the fourth
division of the floral parade won first
prize? Certainly no. that of Marshal Cow
varrllblas, as stated, for it was in the
third division and not competing. John
+. Francis carried off second honors and
ID. T. Donegan third. but who won the
red banner? Was it given out by the
Judges?

WEATHER AND CROPS
Report Of Director Barwick of the State Bureau
for Week

SACRAMENTO, April 22.-Director Bar
wick of the state weather service, reports
the average temperature for the week
ending Monday, April %:
For Eureka, 56; Fresno, "a; Independ-
nee, 81; Los Angeles co. Red Bluff 66;
, acramento, IS; San Francisco, So; San
Luis Obispo and San Diego, SIS each. AS
compared with the normal temperature,
this is deficiency of degree in the Sac
ramento valley, while the northern por-
ton of southern California reports nor
NAL conditions to have prevailed at Los
Angeles and heat deficiency of l degree
is reported at San Diego.
The coast counties report an excess of
heat at Eureka of degrees, while that of
San Francisco was normal. The total
precipitation during the week was moth
ing for the San joaquin valley and but a
trace for the Sacramento valley and also
for the coast counties except at Eureka,
where there was 80 of an inch precipi-
tated. AS compared with the normal
precipitation there was deficiency during
the week at Eureka of IS of an inch
Fresno. 49, Los Angeles, Al; Red Bluff,
SIS; Sacramento, SO; San Francisco, 40,
and San Diego, 81 =
The excess of temperature with dss;
crease of moisture during the week was
further exaggerated by continuous and
drying northerly winds which have been
rather detrimental to the grain and feed
over the entire state, the effect being
more severely felt in the lower San Joa-
quin valley than elsewhere. The reports
from the numerous correspondents show
that the fruit crop is only small one for
some varieties and short on some others,
while the grain bids fair to be a pretty
good crop until the present spell of dry
weather with the drying northerly winds
continues for some time, and otherwise
IT will rapidly draw the moisture out of
the ground and cause hard crust to
form over the surface, which is detri-
mental to any and all kinds of crops.
A few good showers are now badly
needed over the whole state. to be followed
by cool weather. An abundant hay crop
seems to be an assured fact over Che en-
tire state.

RACE TRACK TROUBLES
A Charge of Jobbing Made Against Eastern
lien

NEW YORK, April 22.-It is reported
chat the charges the racing board of the
l.. A. W. have been making aga inst John
S. johnson, are that he received money
from promoters of race meets for riding
for having sold or disposed of prizes
won, and for having entered in race
meets which he failed to attend last sea-
son. These charges it is said, have been
under investigation for several months,
and were first started by Chairman Gideon.
Johnson's trainer asserts that he can pro-
duce all his prizes, and will do so if the
racing board will agree to pay the freight
charges from Toronto, Minneapolis and
Syracuse, where they are stored. 1t
seems to be the general impression that
Johnson will have considerable trouble to
refute these charges successfully, al
though they are expressly of a similar
nature to those preferred against him two
years ago, when he produced atfidavits of
his innocence and his suspension was re
moved.
