Smith has a railroad for which he
must have an outlet, and the route
up the Brazos is in everyway in

planters are tired Of pulling theil

OUR MEATS ABROAD.

The United States Supplies Three
fourthS of tho European Demand.
WASHINGTON, June 8. Consul-Gen-
eral Karel of st. Petersburg has sent to
the State Department a report upon the
efforts Russia is now making to over
come the obstacles which interfere with
tho export of her cattle and meats to
different European markets. At present
no Russian cattle are exported to Aus
tria, England, France or Germany. ex-
ports OF such cattle being confined 10
Turkey, Italy, Greece and the Island Of
Malta. Russian meats are allowed in
Germany, but the quarantine rules, it is
contended, are being about used TO its ex
clusion. England admits Russian meat,
but complains Of the quality. Lately it
has been found very suitable for beef tea,
and demand created, it being used al
most exclusively for that purpose. The
largest consumer of imported meats is
England, that country using 1,440, $780, 900
to l,66l. 900 pounds annually. Russia
exported in 1893 only 1900 cattle, $1,000
hogs, l63, 600 sheep and meat to the value
of l75,000 roubles. The United States
supplies about three-fourths Of all the
meat for the European demand.

WAR EXPENSES ENORMOUS.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-A semi official
statement has been received here from
one of the leaders in the most influential
clements in Cuba. showing that the war
expenditures are becoming so enormous
and the sugar and tobacco Industries SO
Improbable that they believe general
uprising will result from the hard times
caused. The portion of the statement
concerning the desperate conditions pre-
valllng is as follows:
The war expenses of lS6S-7S were paid
by Cuba. Spain furnished DO, 367 men, but
not single dollar. Cuba was loaded with
nearly $500, 600, 600 debts, besides yearly
budget of S5S, 100000 in those tan years.
General Lovellar declared in the Spanish
Cortes that the war expenses had been
SlO0,000,0 600, or al average of $40, 000, 600
year. Sugar produced then with slave
labor was sold at 6s cents a pound. The
tobacco industry was in such flourish
ing condition that the Minister of the
Colonies, Romero Roberaldo, called the
building of their buildings palaces"
Leaf tobacco was sold 100 per cent above
to-day's prices. Per contra, sugar sells
to-day at 1.S6 cents a pound, or 80 per
cent. below cost of production, ard is
pressed to its last ditch by German beet
sugar.
The tobacco industry is ruined beyond
redemption by a tariff war. Leaf does
not pay the cost OF labor at to-day's
prices. The production Of Cuba this year
will be: Sugar, S32 2000,0 900; tobacco, $l2,-
100000; fruits and sundries, $5,O00,00O;
total, S39. 100000; deficit, 45,000,0 900. Ex-
penses: Budget, $26,500,000; extra octroi
tax, $3.50O.000; imports. $35,0OO.0O mu-
nicipal budget, Sl0,0 900; extra war ex-
penses, at least SI9,0OO.O0O; total. s94, ,0OO,-
600. a S45.000,000 deficit is the last straw
on the camePs back. The budget of
1884 was closed with a S6,000,000 de-
ticit and sugar sold then at 2.625 cents a
pound. while this year it sells at 1.S6
cents pound.

EMILIO GARCIA.

Ne Confessed the Crime for Which He
is to be Hanged To- Morrow.
SAN BERNARDINo, June 5.-Emilio
Garcia, who was sentenced to be hanged
Friday in San Quentin for the murder OF
James Guilminot, at Cotton on the 18th OF
last October. made a confession OF his
crime on Sunday, May 24th, in the pres
ence of the Mexican Consul-General and
District Attorney Daley of San Bernar-
dino.
Garcia had appealed to the Mexican
Government to Interfere in his behalf as
a citizen of that country, claiming that be
had been unfairly tried and unjustly con-
Sicted. After Garcia had fully stated his
ease. the Consul-General informed him,
according TO his own story. that he was at
least an accessory, which, under the law
of this State. is punishable alike with the
principal, and he could not make an at
tempt to interfere with the carrying out
of the sentence OF death.
Garcia asked the Consul General if
there was no hope to be looked for from
dhe Governor, and on an answer that
xbere was none, Garcia then said ssThen
If there is no hope for me, and [ will
have TO hang, l may as well tell the
truth. Juan ferra struck the first blow,
and in SO doing the knife broke in his
hands, but the stroke he made would not
have killed the Frenchman. l then took
the Frenchman's knife out of his pock ct
and held back his head and cut his throat,
and the incidents following were duly re-
lated in the testimony of the case. Juan
;Sallas was present and assisted III the
murder of the Frenchman."

SAN FRANCISCO, June sc. f. Crocker,
Vice President of the Southern Pacific
Company, who has just returned from

Joaquin Valley Railroad is going to do
great deal toward that end. When /

no doubt but that the road will be built.
AS a business enterprise it is sure to do
great deal of good to California. l, for
one, am glad to see it going ahead. l
hope it will be successful.
Now. | mean just what l say. The
San joaquin Valley Railroad will have

This new road will help them. Under
such circumstances, why shouldn't be

Now, so far as that enterprise is car
ried on as business proposition, and not
with the idea of doing any other interest
an injury, it is sure to succeed, and cer-
tain to benefit California and San Fran
cisco. Ii its purpose is to maliciously do
harm to any other enterprise, then L
think it will not succeed. of course, no
body can say definitely whether the road
will itself be financial success. | think,
however, that if properly managed it will

A Juror in the Case Causes an Unex-
pected Sensation.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 5.-William E.
Paulsel of Stock ton, on trial for robbery
OF faro bank here in February, 1894,
began his defense in the Superior Court
to-day. He says he was himself held up
by the faro robbers and made to wear
certain articles of clothing belonging to
the robbers, and loaded down with in
eliminating evidence. the purport of
which he did not understand until ar
rested. He declares there was no reason
for the robbery, as his share in the estate
of his father, J. J. Paulsell. the we'll
known Democratic politician, amounts
to S35, ,000
There was an unexpected sensation in
the case to- night and one of the jurors,
Julius Meyer, may find himself in seri-
Gus trouble before many days are past.
After the case had been given to the jury
Judge Belcher called the jurors before
him at s O'Clock in the evening. Foreman
Hinkle asked that the jury be discharged,
as there was no prospect of verdict. He
said one of the jurors had stated he was
preiudiced against the court, and would
not change his vote ii he had to stay out
three months.
The Judge refused to grant the request,
and sent the jury back until 10 O'Clock.
Finally the jury was called in, and Fore
man Hinkle presented the following
statement:
"We, the jurymen in the case of the
people against w. b. Paulsell, beg to re-
port to this court that Juryman julius
Meyer declared in the jury-room after
the second ballot, that he was prejudiced
against the court, and should not be in
this case, and that he had been repri-
nauded by the Judge in another case,
and would not change his vote il he
staid here for three months. Therefore,
in our opinion. the said julius Meyer is
guilty of perjury in having on oath de-
clared that be could give this case fair
trial"
Juror Meyer asked permission to make
q statement, ana said After the second
ballot the foreman asked who was the
Juror that had voted for acquittal, and
replied that l had. l said there was evil
dence, which l mentioned, that put a
reasonable doubt in my mind of the de-
fendanl's guilt. and they all laughed at
NE. That made me excited, and said
that in another case in which l was
juror the Judge had made remarks
against those who were for acquIttal that
l felt keenly, and which ought to make
me prejudiced against the court. L said
that they could not force me to vote
against my convictions. even though L
should stay there for three months"
''He distinctly said that he was preJu-
diced against tho court" said Foreman
Hinkle, land would not change his vote
ii he stayed ont three mouths"
''Am to understand" said the prose-
cutting attorney, 'that eleven were for
conviction and one for acquittal?"
'Yes, sir" answered Foreman Hinkle.
And the one for acquittal was Juror
Meyer"
s'Yes, sir"
The Judge said lie remembered the case
spoken of by Juror Meyer, but the re-
marks he then made should not Interfere
with his duty juror in any other case.
The jury was discharged and Paulsell
was remanded to tho custody OF tho
Sheriff.
