CALIFORNIA TOBACCO.
The Golden State Bids Fair to Become
One of the Best Producing States

The Golden State Bids Fair to Become
One of the Best Producing States.
SAN Francisco, May 2S-The to-
bacco growing industry in this State ia
about TO undergo q wave of prosperity
according to j. D. Culp, q prominent
tobacco grower Of Santa Clara Valley.
He claims that California is bound to
become one OF the best tobacco produc.
Ing States in the Union. Recently he
brought the matter to the attention of
the committee on new industries OF the
Manufacturers and Producers Associ-
alton. Messrs. Esberg. Plageman, Lewis
and Sultan have been appointed com
mittee to interview Local N anu fac turers
and ascertain what can be done to de.
velop the industry.
MIR. Culp says he is already making
big shipments of tobacco to Eastern
manufacturers. Sometime ago an Eng
lish syndicate offered him $500, 900 for
his plant and his method OF caring for
the leaf. Ia speaking of his experience
In raising tobacco on California land,
Mr. Culp said: ~ am convinced that
California can be first among tobacco
producing States. A conservative es-
innate as to the amount of tobacco
grown In this State per acre is 1000
pounds; reasonable price for it is 25
cents per pound and that liberal allow
aDce for handling, growing and ship
ping would be 800 per acre, leaving a
balance in favor Of the grower of $3.50
per acre.

TERRIBLE OCEAN DISASTER.
The French Steamer Dom Pedro Wrecked
and 100 Persons Drowned

anu ioO PersonS Drowned.
CADIZ, May 1S.-The French steamer
Dom Pedro, bound for Carrll, Spsin. has
been wrecked off Cape Currubedo.
About 100 OF those on board were
drowned. The disaster WAS caused by
the bursting Ct boiler. The Dom
Pedro was 5000 ton steamer, and WAS
engaged regularly between Havre
and the Argentine Republic, calling at
bordeaux, France, and Carril, Spain,
for freight and passengers. The latter
were mostly emigrants bound for the
Argentine Republic or other parts of
South America.
On her return trip, Dom Pedro was
generally loaded with frozen meat. she
left Havre on May 90, last. with crew
OF forty~nine, all told, and with eighty
passengers on board. At Carril the
steamer was to have embarked 200 adj.
dltional passengers, but on her way 10
that port she ran on rock at 6. 80 o.
N. yesterday, off Cape Corrubedo, on
the west coast Of GAlicia, her boiler ex-
ploded and the vessel foundered almost
Immediately afterwards. It is stated
that only the captain Of the Dom Pedro
and tweDty-nine of the crew were
saved, which would seem to show that
oil the passengers were either killed BY
the explosion or drowned when the
vessel went down.

a Negro Murderer Hanged by a
Mob.
They Break Into the Jail at EiItcote
City and Take From "a Cell Jacob
Henson, Negro Who Murdered
Daniel shea-The Mob Afraid the
Sentence Would be Com IN uted to Life
imprisonment.

ELLICorT CITY. Md, May 2s.-Jacob
Hensen, under sentence of death for the
murder OF Daniel F. Shea. WAS hanged
by lynchers about l o'clock this morn
Ing. There were twenty or thirty of
them and all were masked. They came
by twos and threes and assembled near
the Jail. No alarm was given and the
first information Chief of Police vsn-
SAINT had OF their presence was when
the leaders demanded admitsance to the
jail. He attempted to psrley with them,
but 1T was OF no use.
1--WE nave come for Henson, and we
moan to have him." was the onlv
answer given to him. vansaut refused
20 open the jail doors. but heavy stick
OF tim oer proved "a effective as a kew
ana che mob wss soon inside of the little
prison Henson covered in his cell,
and whom he caught sighs o. the black
yelled figures as they were revealed bv
the dim light OF q single lantern he
shrieked for mercy, swearing that he
had never killed Shea.
1t was useless. Half a deem deter-
mlnei men broke in the cell door and
placed g rope around the negro's neck.
He was moro dead than alive when
dragged from tho cell. He fell on his
knees and alternately prayed and
cursed, but determined hancs were a.
the other end OF the rope and he was
dragged face-downward down the Jail
steps. lie WAS dragged past the place
where the murder WAS committed and
taken to Merrick's lane, where q rope
was thrown over the branch of a tre,
and the negro quickly strung up. No
shotS were fired and the mob dispersed
as quietly "a Il had assembled.
plac ard was left pinned to Henson's
breast or which was written: 1--WE re-
spect our court and Judge Governor
Brown forced the law abiding citizens
to carry out the verdict OF the Jury.
White Caps" The lynchers feared that
the governor OF Maryland might be in.
duced to interfere and commute the
dead mans sentence to life imprisonr
mont. The grounds for this apprehen-
sion came from the recent repeated
visits to the Jail OF one or two special.
lists in mental diseases to inquire into
henson's sanity, and the reported in
tention OF Governor Brown himself to
come out here for the same purpose one
day this week.
The murder OF Daniel Il. Shea was
committed about three months ago.
With no other incentive than robbery,
the negro beat his employers head with
an iron bar and left him dead in room
over the latter's store, where he had
lived alone.
