COURT EA HIBITS STOLEN.
Thousands of Dollars Forth of Property
- Lost to the County.

Lost to the County.
LOS ANGELES, CAL, Nov.18.-In room
8, at the Courthouse, under the charge of
the County Clerk, all exhibits in criminal
cases are kept. In the past fifteen years
thousands of dollars worth of property,
stolen and otherwise, has come into the
hands of the Clerk in this way. 1t COM
prised confiscated gamblers tools, knives,
valuables of every description, and in
some cases cash. Frequently the proper
parties never called TO claim their own,
and the money and other valuables re-
verified to and became the property of the
county.
Now it is claimed that all the valuable
property which should be in this property
room is not there. 1t has been disposed
of by somebody. The gambling tools and
things like that that have value are gone.
There are lot of relics and valueless stuff
that fills the room. but that is all that is
left.
For ten years no Grand Jury has investi-
gated this property room. There is no
telling how much is gone. A conservative
estimate is that from $4,000 to $40, 900 worth
of We .uables have been taken by some one
and disposed of. The county never profit
ed a cent by it. The Grand Jury will in
vestigate the matter and some interesting
developments will result.

STAKED OUT IN ADVANCE.
The Reservation Was Inraded Before the
Formal Opening.

Formal Opening.
SPOKANE, WASH, Nov. 1S.-According
to the proclamation of President Cleveland
the famous Nez Perez Reservation, in
Idaho, was thrown open to settlement to-
day at noon, Pacific time. 1t was ex-
pected that the scenes of the Oklahoma
opening would be repeated on smaller
scale, but such was not the case. There
was not what could be called wild scram-
BILE for land.
That an exciting rush did not occur was
due to the manner in which the .reserva-
ton was thrown open and to the uncer-
tainty existing as to whether it really was
to open to-day. Outside of newspaper re-
ports the only official notice received to
that effect was the following telegram to
the local land Office at Lewiston from S.
| w. Lamoreux, Commissioner of the Gen
eral Land Department, under date of No
vember 10:
Register and Receiver, publish in local pa
pers that the President has signed the proela-
nation opening the Nez Perces Reservation
lands to settlement and entry on the 18th inst.
From the fact that no proclamation with
the Presidents signature attached has
uScH iCSCiNCu manly uloCACuilCu VIC lcpOl
of the opening. Not word was received
as to the manner of the opening, conse-
quently no restraint was put upon the
thousands OF home-seekers, some OF whom
went into the reserve yesterday to select
locations, while nearly every body entered
it early this morning, bent upon getting
some choice spot ahead OF the others.
When the hour for the formal opening
came nearly all had made their selections.
Several hundred who waited until noon
before beginning the march found the
choice lands already taken.
The only likelihood of trouble resulting
is over mineral claims and town sites.
| The Craig range of mountains,
which extends across the territory,
is said to be rich in miner
ais. Here prospectors and " sooners -
staked out both placer and quartz claims
several days ago, and will attempt to hold
them against later corners. 1t is expected
| that serious trouble will ensue there At
least dozen town sites were mapped out
weeks in advance, and the rush for these
furnished the only scenes of excitement.
Owing to the confusion as to the manner
of the opening the number of contests will
be great, and excitement is looked for
when filings commence at the Lewiston
Land Office. The number of acres thrown
open to settlement is over 500 900, and they
are of the finest agricultural and timber
land in Idaho.

James 5. Mexican, chairman of the finance
committee, has ceased to hustle for any
more. "l've done my SHARE" said he,
land I'm through"
Mexican is a Quay-Magee politician, a
little more Magee than otherwise. and his
statement is taken as a fair indication of
bow apathetic the politicians here are.
None Of the Quay leaders are in the city
now to hustle things along, and the inter
est OF the Magee people is perfunctory.
This town is pretty we'll under
Mr.. Magee's, thumb. but the general
opinion is that he would certainly let any
other city have the convention with a
struggle. Quay is in Florida, hunting for
complete rest, Lieutenant-Governor Walter
Lyon is in Atlanta with the State commits
sion, and Senator Arthur Kennedy is busy
helping to Lexow Philadelphia. These
men are Quay's leaders in Allegheny
County, and every day they are absent
valuable time for hustling along the con-
vention enthusiasm is being lost. There
is no excitement at all on that score and
convention talk is laid aside. The hog COM
bine is perfectly willing that the question
should not be agitated. They believe i'm
DIIClIy tuab lOT III W CDIle mere would
greatly add to Quay's prestige, which they
cannot afford under any circumstances.
Everybody believes, though, that Sena-
tor Quay is very much in earnest when be
says that he wants Pittsburg to have the
convention, and nobody doubts that he
will turn all his energies toward getting it,.
But when he goes down to Washington
next month to argue with the National
committeeman he is liable to find the
Magee wing of the Pennsylvania Republic
can party is quietly declaring that Pitts
burg cannot handle the convention; that
she has inadequate accommodations, and
that the delegates will have to run their
chances of being packed into boarding
houses when the hotels shall have been
packed The hostility OF the hog combine
to Senator Quay will play an important
part in Pittsburg's fight for the National
Convention.

FIRES ARoUND SANTA CRUZ.
Magnificent GrOUes and Miles of Fences
Lereled by the Flames.

Magnificent GrOUes and Miles of Fences
Lereled by the Flames.
SANTA CRUZ, CAL, Nov. 1s.-For the
past few days forest fires have been raging
in the mountains OF this county. The
flames are shooting upward in many sec
lions, and to-day the smoke-was so dense
that the entire Santa Cruz range was hid
den from sight. The weather OF the past
two days has been as warm as ever expert
enced in this county in Novembe result
ing partially from the heat sent out by the
fires.
The fire nearest town is that on the hill
on the Cowell ranch, about two miles dis
tant. 1t is on the edge of a strip burned
by the September confagration, and has
swept over considerable brush and timber
land. The flames could be plainly seen
from town.
The largest fire is at Vine Hill, where
acre after acre of the finest timber land
has been burned over. Much of the tim
Der was on the Jarvis property, and the
fire encroached upon the fine vineyard
Men have been at work fighting the flames
since Friday to save the vineyards in this
section. The fire on the ranch of John
LdIoH dL oCoItS dIleV Is also nerce one.
1t is running through timber land. The
men of the valley fought it all day and
night Friday and Saturday, and got it
partially under control. Fires are also
raging at Zyante and Boomers Gulch.
1t is hard to give an estimate OF the loss
caused by these CONGREGATIONS, as there is
fencing by the mile burned. The loss of
cut wood-oak, redwood and madrone-is
heavy, but the greatest damage is in the
destruction of the beautiful forests of red
wood, pine, oak and madrone.

Il DEMOCRATIo COMBINE.
CIereland, Lamont and Whitney Working
on the Convention.

WASHINGTON. D. c., Nov. 18.-The
CALL correspondent learns tonight that
Democrats high in the councils of the
party have resolved to make determined
effort to take the National Democratic
Convention to New York. This agrees en-
tirely with what Chairman Harrity said a
week ago. He expressed the belief that
the convention would be held in New
York City, and said, furthermore, that the
National Committee would meet here
January to decide the time and place for
holding it. He said yesterday he thought
it would meet in New York the last of
June or early in July, as short campaign
was desirable. This statement was made
Immediately after Mr.. Harrity had talked
with President Cleveland at the White
House, and the presumption is that Cleve-
land, Whitney and Lamont are in the deal
to take the convention to the metropolis.
The Democrats believe that if they can
hold their convention there they will be
able to better influence the delegates to
''resolute" for gold money.

SANTA ROSA, CAL, Nov. 18.-Mary E.
Nordin, the plaintiff in the Aqua Cal
iente Springs litigation of Nordin VS..
Nordin, filed an amendment to the COM
plant to-day in which are some new de-
velopments of a sensational character.
Mrs. Nordin first says that she gave a
deed to the property in dispute simply for
the real estate and not for any of her per-
sonal property. She states that in the
month of October 1882, the defendant
John A. Nordin Cher husband) was known
by the name of John A. Nelson, and that
he had had this name from childhood and

public of Switzerland, and has continued
to be her husband, and the plaintiff is in

WILLIAM SEATON MISSING.
Huntington's Nephew Declines to Pay
Alimony or Saw Wood.

Huntin gtOn'S Nephew Declines to Pay
A1imony or Saw Wood.
| The fire on the hearth of E. NJ. Morgan,
the attorney has gone slowly out. and
there remains nothing but heap of cold
gray ashes for the servant to throw into
the back yard. He had expected that this
week would be one of bright fires and cozy
warmth, for he had hired William Seaton,
the nephew of Coils Huntington, to saw
wood for him; but Seaton went on strike,
and the Morgan fires have fiickered out.
Morgan, who is attorney for Mrs. Seaton
in her snit for divorce, had taken pity upon
Seaton's idle condition and his plaintive
demands to be allowed to labor for his
bread and had offered him employment
Seaton had to pay his wife and child $35 a
N onth alimony, but not being able to find
any work in his line he did not pay. 1t
was then that Morgan conceived the bright
idea of employing the industrious Seaton
at his own woodpile, and thereby provide
the defendant with work, his client with
alimony and his hearth with blazing back
logs. He would pay So a day, and would
furnish the wood and saw; so under the
gentle persuasion of an order of court Sea-
ton agreed to appear yesterday morning.
He protested vehemently as he did not
think the work fit for him. His trade is
the picking of the blossoms of century
plant during the blooming season, and
during the time between crops he naturally
finds himself idle. He said, however, he
| would try the job.
At half-past clock he appeared before
Judge Hunt with DR.. w. S. Gibson, DR..
E. H. Mattner and DR.. Thomas r. Jaynes.
They all agreed under oath that hernia,
which Seaton said he was suffering from,
was not disease to prevent an industri-
Gus man from saving wood, and Mr..
Morgan submitted a concurring opinion.
Then his Honor ordered that in view of
all the facts presented it was plain that
| the non-sawlng defendant was guilty of
contempt, not of or for the forty-cord wood
pile in Mr.. Morgan's back yard, but for
the court which ordered him to reduce it
it to kindling wood, and SO Mr.. Seaton
was ordered to Jail for five days from the
time of his arrest. But Mr.. Seaton could
not be found. Deputy Sheriffs anxiously
sought for him to bestow upon lim this
latest gift of court and counsel, but it was
finally decided that Uncle Coils had
given him a pass to Mexico, where, it is
said, he may find a grove OF century
plants where he can ply his trade.
