The Insulting Letter.


Mrs. Mary O'Connor, formerly laun-
dress of the fire department, said she
had received letter from James
Devine
What was the substance Of the
letter?''
The defense objected and introduced
d copy of the letter, which said that
some Of the washing of the department
had been lost; that she did not bring
back what she received, and that suf-
ficent would be deducted from her
pay to make good the lost articles.
Mr.. Zane (sneeringly)-SO this is the
insulting letter. If 1 know the English
language, it is not so.
Mr.. Lippman-Well, perhaps you are
a great photographer, but ordinary
people would say that here is an insin-
uation that the witness was thief.
There were some more hot words be-
tween the attorneys, but the board
interfered and the examination con-
tinued.
Did you return the clothes you re-
ceived?"
4 returned all the pieces as I re-
ceived them. Sometimes the list was
not the same as the number of
clothes"
Cross examination: Did not Mr.
Devine tell you Mr.. Chalmers wrote
the letter, and was he not courteous
about it?'
Yes, sir"
sMr Lippman-Did not Mr.. Devine
tell you Mr.. Chalmers wrote it at his
dictatiOn?"

FIRE AT A POWDER WORKS.
Heroic Work Saves Many Lives and
Many Dollars


Oakland, Cal. June 2s.-Fire broke
out this afternoon in the works OF the
California Powder works at Hercules
Point here. The sulphur house was
soon consumed and the fire began to
spread in the direction of the storage
house where 500 tons of nitro glycer-
inc and thousands of pounds Of giant
powder are kept. By heroic work on
the part of the employees the flames
were kept from the storage house, and
the fire at $50 p. m. was under con-
troll Two men were badly burned while
rushing through the flames. Hot Goals
dropped on woodwork by a plumber
started the fire. The loss will be about
$4,000.
When the news of the fire reached
Oakland the whole town became panic
stricken as en- explosion would have
done enormous damage here.

New York, June 29.-Bradstreets publ

informed newspapers appear to continue
in doubt whether the bond syndicate has
complied its work or not; whether it is
able to dissolve and leave the treasury

well to state thus prominently that the

'rAIr. Devine did not say so"
Mr. Lippman-The other men did the

nit Between Attorneys.

During this examination there was
another tilt between the attorneys.
John NJ. Zane had been conducting his
case in his own peculiar manner. Sew
eral times during the morning objec-
tions to his manner had come from
the other side, but the board had said
nothing. At length, when he inter-
rupted Paul Mr. Lippman protested
and said he would like TO know if Mr..
Zane was to run the whole city gov
eminent, the board included as well
as the trial. There were Some hot ex-
changes and only sharp interference by
the commissioners quoted matters

Yes. sir; at the crematory fire and

Witness corroborated the state
ments regarding steamers out of ser
vice. Chief visited house No. about
once in four weeks and talked apart
with some of the men.
Mr.. Lippman-Did you ever know of
only two men being left in No. 2?
Yes, sir; once. The men took their
meals according to the schedule

Cross-eXamined by Mr.. Zane: "Who
laid away the steamer at No. 2?''
"Chief Devine, L believe
Are you sure?"
Il would not be sure There were
only five horses in the house"
What are your personal relations
with the chief?'

Instance of FavOritism.
T. ]. Mcdonald, pipeman in the de-
partment, corroborated evidence re-
on May %. When there was a full
amount of hose at No ?, il was only
sufficient to reach to a fire near the

The Chicago Inter Ocean recently con-
tained cartoon, of which we are re-
minded by yesterdays dispatches, con-
cerning the maintenance of the reserve
by the board syndicate. The picture
represented an Irish iaunting car, such
as the English-imitating snobs use, the
driver of which was Banker Morgan,
with the word ''Syndicate'' on his hat
band. By his side sat diminutive
Uncle Sam, holding the ends OF the
lines, as children often do. On the
back seat sat the coachman, the wrinkle
in whose neck above his shirt collar
identified him as the prerident. Below
were the words: can old trick. The
youngster thinks he is driving" 1t is
apparent that the syndicate still holds
the reins, and Uncle Sam is being fooled.

Regarding MR.. KINCAID.

One single paper, so far as heard from,
has come to the defense of Secretary
Kiucaid. The Union Republican says ::
The Republican fails to see wherein
there is grounds for criticism in this act
of Mr.. Kincaid. If doing what the law
saws to do is the only fault the critics of
the secretary can find in his admins
tration, he need have no fear of the way
in which these criticisms will be re-
ceived by the people of the state. Mr..
Kincaid is laboring in the interest of
the people in the administration of his
trust, and while it is true he has not
succeeded as well as he desired in all
cases-for instance, in his efforts to cave
the state the $40, 900 of the peoples
money paid the useless railroad commits
sion-the fact remains, nevertheless,
that he is endeavoring to administer his
Office as economically as possible and in
the interest of the people.
Very good; but the Republican for
gets that the railroad commission is en-
deavoring to administer its Office as
economically as possible; that it is do
ing just what the law says to do, viz,
collecting all 1t can from the state treas
ury, and doing as little real service as
possible; just what our distinguished
secretary is doing. The real fact re-
mains that the secretary has his nose
very deep in the crib, and when the
railroad commission, which is made to
draw salary and nothing more, tries
to get its nose into the manger, he
growls and kicks. He is endeavoring to
administer his office as economically as
possible for Mr.. Kincaid; he even lets
the state pay his attorneys, employed
by him without authority of law to help
him make the kick.
Now, Mr.. KincaId, suppose you COM
mence suit against that fellow, Harri-
son r. Kincaid, to determine his right
to- the ten or twelve thousand dollars
which he is annually collecting from the
people over and above the compensation
provided by the constitution for him.

PUNISH ALL THE YES.

Some of the fruit raisers near town
have been, and are being, greatly an
noyed by the incursions OF grown hood
lums and badly-governed small boys
upon their melon fields. There IS not a
farmer in the country who would not
gladly give a manly boy, or a needy
man, all the melons he wants, and the
loss of such melons as are taken is in
considerable; but when a whole field of
melons is ruined by the use of knife
in the hands of boy or man inspired to
mischief by satan himself, the loss is a
grievOus one and the wrong one that
should be severely punished.
The only proper course is to land
every pilferer behind the bars, regard
less of the social standing of his family,
and cause him to suffer the lawful re-
suit of his ofense. Fruit-stealing is
winked at too much; to such an extent
that many boys are filed with the idea
that is the right of every manly boy to
take anything and everything in the
way of fruit that can be reached. But
this is but one of the steps in the educa-
tion OF criminals, and the way to save
the boy is to teach him by the terrible
experience of captured thieves in other
lines. Furthermore, the fruit raiser is
as much entitled to protection as the
merchant, the stock raiser and banker.
We believe that the arrest of a few of
the boys would be a good thing for them.
The sending to jail, for considerable
term, of the grown-up hoedlums would
be an excellent thing for the community.
