AFTER THE BLIND "BOSS'
Jake Rudolph on the Warpath for Chris
Buckley
The Ward-Striker Thinks He Has Had a
Injustice Done Him and Wants
Revenge

San Francisco, March 4.-The Call
says: Jake Rudolph is hunting Chris
Buckley with a gun, and the, blind boss
is in fear of his life and has departed
from the city and is now in hiding at
his ranch near Livermore. 1t is a notc-
rious fact that for weeks past Buckley
has been attended by bodyguard. In all
his walks about the city his nephew,
William Harrison, has followed him,
carrying about his person a small but
most effective arsenal. The blind ex-
boss fears assassination at the hands of
his former guide and henchman, Jake
Rudolph. Before leaving the city Buck
lev sent word to the police of the danger
which threatened him, and the patrol
men of every watch were at once fur
nished with photograph and descrip-
ton of Rudolph and instructed to
stand him up every time they saw him
and search him for weapons. Il any were
found upon him he was to be at once ar
rested.
Rudolph will be remembered as the
man who, sc yeral months ago entered the
Chronicle business Office carrying revolt
yer, the contents OF which were destined
for the proprietor OF that paper. MI. De
Young was not in the Office at the time,
and Mr.. Elliott the business manager,
hearing Rudolph's threatening language,
ordered him out of the building. The
would be assassin did not obey at once,
and Elliott grappled with him. strug-
gle ensued in which the revolver was dis
Charged and the bullet found Judgement
in some silver coin in Mr.. Elliott's
trousers pocket.
Rudolph was charged with intent tol
commit murder but escaped the peni-
Tertiary by plea OF insanity. He was
sent to the asylum at Stockton, and a.
few weeks ago was pronounced cured
and discharged. His trial for the Elliott
affair is set for some time in the dim,
distant future, and he has apparently
learned that he can, with impunity, take
human life. The cause of the falling
out between Buckley and his former right
bower is disagreement. over money
matters. Rudolph claims that Buckley
owes him money.

HIDDEN WEALTH
An Ex-Msyor Of Oakland VIII Hunt for
Gold

An Ex-Msyor Of Oakland Will Hunt for
Gold
Oakland, March 4.-Where the Sac
ramento river empties into Suisun bay
there are 1862 acres of black sand and clay
sediment in which the owner, ex-Mayor
NJ. G. Chapman, believes to be hidden
colossal wealth. His theory is that the
Sacramento has for ages been carrying
grains of gold in its current and that
where the channel broadens as it enters
the Suisun bay and the force of the cur
rent diminishes, the pulverized gold
quartz and the black sand washed from
the Sierras has settled, mingling with var
ious sedimentary deposits, until now
there are 1862 acres having an average
depth of deposit land of % feet 2 inches.
An assayer claimed he textracted $40
worth of gold per ton from the sand, but
the owner thinks he can extract $25 per
ton. The said is greasy and expels the
quicksilver: but Chapman says he now
has an electrical process by which he ex-
poets to be able to extract the gold with
out difficulty.

New York, March 4.-One of the most
impressive funeral ceremonies ever wit
messed in this city took. place yesterday
at Clarendon Hall. Dressed in his uniform
as a corporal of Company II, Seventh
Regiment, the body of Meyer Dampf lay
in state, guarded by his comrades in
arms, the members of Geilsa Post, G. A.
r. 1t was wonderful sympathetic gath
ering which surrounded the bier of Never
Dampf, and strangely enough, one of his
pall-bearers the commander of his post,
Colonel A. Seifert, secretary of the brew
ers pool, represented the principle against
which Dampf had fought resolutelv for
many years. At an early meeting of the
Central Labor Union, resolutions of regret
were passed betting the occasion, Mr..
Dampf having been for many years treas
urer of that body. The meeting was
promptly adjourned in order that the
members might be present during the
funeral ceremonies. The platform was
occupied by leaders OF the labor move
ment in this city, and the hall filled with
members of the various organizations
represented in the Central Labor Union
and other bodies, when Samuel Gompers
arose to make his grafton. He said
The comrades of the one whose frail
body lies in yonder coffin can attest to his

brow of mankind the everlasting idea that
justice IS true and is embedded in the
hearts of all.
In the struggle of labor against wrongs
which are the growth of generations he
was ever ready to place his vaIor on the
side OF Justice. True to his home and the

form, and to the cause OF love, NAV his
life be an example that we may emulate

ator Hoyt's bill, to regulate the sale and
redemption of transportation tickets,
passed the Assembly this afternoon by a
vote of Al to 36. The scene preceding

of widest confusion. When the bill

ments were voted down.
There was some brief debate and then the

were against them. Finally one of the
absent ones arrived, coming in by wiz
dow and the vote on the final passage OF
the bill was ordered.

NO BOILER INSPECTOR



San Francisco, March 1.-The effort
which is being made to secure the passage
of Assembly bill No. $685. proposing to
place all steam boilers in the state under
the supervision of a corps of inspectors,
will be met by strong protest from the
steam boiler users and makers of the
state. Though the protest was circulated
here Saturday afternoon, when many of
the business houses and manufacturing
establishments were closed, it was numer-
ously signed. The boiler men say the car
rying out of the provisions of the bill will
entail great expense on steam users, man
ufacturers and engineers of the state at a
time when business cannot well afford to
be loaded with extra burdens. The tax
which the bill would levy on the steam
users is regarded as unjust as it is unnec-
essary. A committee went to Sacramento
today and will present the protest to the
Legislature today.
