SPRECKELS' STRING is HERE
Fourteen Crack Racers at the Park
Race Track
Cadmus, Candid and Some Splendidly Bred
Two-Year-Olds, Besides Number of
Other Good Ones

The string of thoroughbreds belonging
to A. b. Spreckels arrived in this city
early yesterday morning. They were all
in good condition when they left Sacra-
mento, where they have been in training,
and when seen in their stalls at Agricul-
tural park seemed none the worse for the
trip.
The fourteen horses in the string are
in charge of Cy Mulkey, II trainer famous
all along the coast All of the horses will
race during the La Fiesta meeting, Cad
mus and Candid appearing in the New
ton handicap to be run next Saturday.
Of course, Cadmus, the big brown son of
Flood and Cornelia, is the bright partcu-
lar star. Candid, a ine-looking black
mare by Splendor-Canary. is an importa-
ton from Australia. She ran some ex-
celent races at the San Francisco track.
Bridal Veil is a very handy mare by
Cheviot. Gallant is bay colt by Fellow
charm out OF Jennie Belshaw. He was
an exceptionally good 2-yearold. and will
in ALL likelihood be the favorite for the
La Fiesta derby. to be run a week from
Wednesday. Pat Murphy is Il 3-year-old
brother to that famous sprirter Tim Muir
ply. He has plenty of speed going five
furlongs. Headtower is clever 3-year-
old tiliy by Flood out of Rosetta.
In the string are four 4-year-olds who
have 3een working very fast at Sacra-
mento. They are royalty bred and will
no doubt startle the Southern horsemen.
Rum BILE is good sized chestnut colt by
Flambeau out of Music. Pique is a racy
looking tilly by Flambeau out of Petro-
leuse. Next comes colt by Flambeau
out of Sharon Rose. These three were
bred at Palo Alto, and on breeding are
sure to become star performers. Lucille is
a clever looking flly from Freddy Geb-
hardt's Lake county breeding farm, by
st. Savioro ut of a well bred mare named
Sardonyx.
Besides those named there are a few
other untried year-olds with the stable.
Jockey Homer Coombs came along with
the stable, and will do most of the riding.
None of Mr. Spreckels horses have
raced for the past few months owing to
dispute between their owner and I. II.
Williams, Jrs, the president OF the Califor-
mia Jockey Club. MIR. Spreekels did not
like the way his horses were treated in
the -handicaps, and refused to- race them
over the, Bay Districta traok.8 They were
all sent to-, Sacramentos where they've
rested. During THE last fewrdweeks they
have been given considerable work and
reports from the Capital ,city ssay they
have all shown worlds of speed. aq4

1T WAS A FREE FIGHT
1ike Mccormick Comes Out Lucky Throughout
in His Scrap

Mike Mccormick, young man, was
tried yesterday in Department One on the
charge of assault with a deadly weapon
upon the person of Mariana Randizi on
the 4th of January. Randizi is the keeper of
saloon at 727 New High street. Mike Nc
Cormick, in the course of his New Years
festive celebration. dropped into Randiz s
saloon and invested in a considerable
quantity of sour wine, which he dispens sed
When he tired of dispensing wassail, his
thirsty friends turned on him and tried
to do him up. 1t was claimed that during
the progress of the free fight Mrs. Randizi
took hand in it herself, the result being
that she got crack in the eye.
Mariana RandiZi blamed Mccormick
for the blow and proceeded to retaliate
with hamm i. Mccormick, finding that
Ii was likely to be seriously injured,
pulled out knife, with which he stabbed
the saloon man in the ribs. Randizi was
put to bed, where he remained three
weeks under the care of his faithful wife,
who had been the means of laying HIM
up, and Mccormick spent all the time be-
tween his 4th of January ollification and
yesterday in the county Jail, in default of
$500 bail. As he had arrived here from
Denver the day before the fracas, he has
not had any great opportunities of ac
quainting himself with the beauties
Southern California. However. the jury
acquitted him, ana he may. now have Il
chance to enjoy the Fiesta. if he keeps
ava from sour wine and New High street
saloons.

A PI0US BURGLAR
Folsom Graduate Detected by the Peculiar
Tracks of His Brogans

VI Ills DFoSdIS
John Carroll, a burglar. was held to an
swei' yesterday by Justice Young on the
charge of having robbed the house of
Mrs. Elizabeth G. Gilbert. wealthy East
ern lady who resides at Garvanza. on
March %. This Carroll has not been out
of the penitentiary at Folsom very long,
hav ing been SCI up from here in April,
1885,, to serve a two-year term for burg
larry. Upon his liberation he lost no time
in returning to this part of the country,
anct located at Garvanza. By smooth
woi k and pretending to be pious he in
gra tiated himself with religious people
ancl secured odd jobs at gardening and
che res. With the advent of Carroll at
Gavanza number OF petty burglares
we,fe lnaugurated, whose authorship could
no,5 then be placed, but which everybody
out there now confidently places to his
cri dit
when Mrs. Cilbert's house was bur
gla rized about six hundred dollars worth
of jiewelry and q few dollars in coin were
tax en-. but there was nothing that would
give Il clue to the thief. Sheriff Burr
and Deputy Martin Aguirre worked on
tho case and arrested Carroll. A number
of peculiar footprints in the yard of Mrs.
Gilberts house were the means of ident-
flying the probable burglar. His shoes
flied these tracks to nicely and plaster
casts We're taken of them for iurther re-
fe renee. He disclaimed having commit
ted the crime, and Notwithstanding the
Ell forts of the sheriff, none OF the stolen
property has been recovered.
Justice Young held Carroll to answer in
the sum of $2500. and as he could not
give bail he will await his trial in the
coutHy bastile.

THE GREATER Los ANGELES
The AnnexatiOnists Do Not Find
Smooth Sailing
UNIVERSITY WILL STAY OUT
So Said Her Citizens in Mass Meeting
Yesterday
They Intimate That the City Has Scheme
on Hand-Tfey Decline to Enter
Metropolitan Limits

Delegates from Vernon from Rosedale,
from Pico Heights and Harper Tract met
in University hall last night to confer
the live subject of annexation to the pro-
posed greater Los Angeles. The meeting
was called to perfect all the plans relative
TO the annexation and TO discuss all the
advantages of the movement.
The committee from Vernon. Hon. r.
\. Marion, Colonel Lee and II. r. Smith,
were enthusiastic in their expectations,
They said the annexation fever was
spreading to all the suburban towns, and
IN view of the recent decisions of the SUI
preme court relative to their water sup
ply. they were doubly anxious to get in.
BESIDES, with all the suburbs admitted,
the population of Los Angeles city would
jump tn 3 100000 mark.
But CO id water was dashed on the ardor
OF these gentlemen, as well as the repre-
sentatives from the other towns.
Judge George 2. Adams got the floor
after the meeting had been organized,
with CIV. Blake as president and George
r.. LarkF as secretary, and he at once
began al, address that dampened the as
sem Dled ranchers' and SUBURBAN house
holders zeal considerably. He ridiculed
tionlsts. The fire engines were mile
away an 4 were OF no use anyway; police
protection was a fraud, and their con-
stable even then was starving to death,
while 1dge Sexton reported business
dull; gas was delusion and snare and
the sewer was fraud.
In substance he gave his audience to
think that the city was trying to bunco
them into helping pay all tneiI taxes,
when they could get along without the
city and l!o in when they got ready. He
thought it wouldn't pay. 1--WE enjoy all
the city, privileges. . said he; why pay
tor what we can get for nothing, or Tor
what we can get along without. | say

Colonel. Eastman spoke for progress and
annexati pm, as Roscdale viewed it, and
was sorry to have listeneu to the first
siurian speech he had heard in Los An
geles.
Captain Marion of Vernon knew that
nine-tentfls of his constituency favored
the scheme. and if all the Others joined
University ought to 20 in too.
President iced of the city council was
called upon for speeches and explanations
that Were cheerfully given.
Mr.. Dougherty. MIR. Dryden, Mr.. Chase,

A TALE OF THREE BURROS
Stolen From Mt. wilson by Two Young
Men

Sergeant of Police Smith yesterday ar
rested two young men WHO say their
names are Dan Rudigan and MORLEY. The
sergeant thinks they are the men who
stole three burros from Il man named
Maxwell, who conducts burro line on
Mt. Wilson. The reason for the sergeant
thinking SO, is the fact that the burros
with their saddles and trappings were
found in the possession of the prisoners,
who had been making some attempts to
sell them. They claimed afterward that
they had hired the animals and intended
returning them.

The United States consul at Tamico,
John Mcguire, ESQ.,, is visiting Moplle'
his old home. The report of the. Times
Democrat says:
Col John Mcguire, the United States
consul a Tampico, is at home again Tor d
few weeks. He is looking remarkably
well, and stated that he had entirely re-
covered from the malarial fever
which attacked him last year. and was
never in better health than at present.
He was asked regarding the business
of the port and stated that 1t was much
improved, owing to the reduced rate con-
sequent upon the competition between the
steamship and railroad there Freights
were never so low.
He was questioned on the shipment of
corn to that port from the United States,
and stated that it had improved owing
to the reduction of duty made in favor
of only one port of entry, however, that OF
Progreso. The rate was only Is cents,
where it had been formerly twice as
much, the reduction being made by the
government on account of the drouth,
which had caused a loss of crops. Some
corn came from the interior of the state.
The conditions, however, are favorable
for the growing of corn in that country,
as three crops can be raised during the
year. Two steamship loads of 1000 tons
had gone there this season. The i'm
feet of reducing the price of corn, for
while it formerly sold at $3.50 a bushel,
1t can be had now for Is cents.
1.-THE consul spoke favorably of the
health of Tampico. a city of $1,000 inhab-
itants, in which the death rate in August
was only twenty-six, for September only
thirty-six and a slight increase in 'Octo-
Der on account of the rainy season that
develops the malaria.
He remarked he had visit from the
colored American eoonizer, Ellis, some
weeks ago. The consul stated that Ellis
did not have anything say of his
scheme or project, but did express the in
tention of visiting-Cuba. purpose he
was not encouraged in, as the consul in
formed him that he (Ellis) was not sup
piled with a passport and might have
some trouble without 1t.
THE colonel was quite enthusiastic
over the quick time he had been able to
make in getting back home, having spent
but fifty-nine hours and a half on the
cars en- route from Tampico to Mobile.
This has been made possible only by the
improved schedule on the strawberry
special running from Mexico's capital
to San Antonio, that name indicating that
by this train one could have strawberries
every day in the year. The Southern Pa
cific and Mexican Central have shortened
UP their schedules by many long hours,
and the trip is made in much faster time
than formerly"

R1RM1NaHAM.s FUTURE.

1t should be gratifying in the highest
degree to every friend of Birmingham to
know that this city has been for nearly a
year past the subject of the most valua-
BILE advertising possible to bestow upon
It, That advertising comes from the re-
ports of bank clearings weekly distrib-
uted throughout the country. In these
Birmingham's percentages of increase
have been so constant and frequently so
pronounced as to cause comment and fa-
vorable notices from one end of the coun-
try to the other. These notices have re-
vived former interest in Birmingham,
and there are more inquiries among real
estate men, and really more doing in that
direction than for years past, while the
requests for information about the city
are coming to the Commercial club in
largely increased numbers. This brings
us to the point of saying that the APP
preaching visits of delegations of bus
mess men from the west and east, COM
ing for the avowed purpose of studying
more closely our business outlook is GER
tainly to be followed by practical results
of great Importance and value to Biz
mingham, provided proper steps be taken
to profit by them. To be palmer, the
mission of the Commercial club should
stand forth with greater emphasis at this
time than perhaps at any period since its
formation. strong, live commercial
body will do more to inspire confidence
in this city from visiting delegations of
business men than is possible without it,
And the indications are that Birmingham
is going to have attention from almost
every delegation that will visit Atlanta
this winter; certain 1t is that Birming-
ham can successfully share in that atten-
ton if properly equipped for it and any
intelligent effort Is made to obtain it.
Here is the eliminating point: The
Commercial club is Birmingham only
commercial body, and on its efficiency
and activity in a great degree rests the
future prosperity of Birmingham. 1t
should be placed on a footing common
surate with its Importance to this city
1t was made q popular organization
rather than a limited one, in order that
the smallest dealer in the city could feel
that his identity as a factor in the city's
welfare was recognized and appreciated
This is why every business and profess
sional man in Birmingham should not
only be appealed to in the interests of
the Commercial club, but honest and
jealous efforts should be made to con-
vince them that the club in return recog-
nizes them as essential parts in that COM
munity which as q whole the club pro-
noses to serve

WAR between the United States and

encroachments upon other nations all
over the world. 1t will be fought by us,
