HOBART IMPORTS

Two Carloads Now Being

REDWOOD CITY, CAL, Dec. 19.-Much
wonderment has been created of late
among the people of Redwood CITY and
vicinity by the unusual and extraordinary
sight of large pack of full blooded fox.
hounds, accompanied by two horsemen,
passing TO and fro through this City and
neigh borhood. Inquiries as to whence
they came and whittier they went de-
veloped that the pack, composed of some
fifty or more HOUNDS, belongs to Walter =.
Hobart OF San Mateo, the young million
aire horse-owner. who imported them
direct from England. The two men &C.
companying them in their ram plings are
trainers who are putting them into con-
dftion to chase the willy fox.
In securing this pack, Mr.. Hobart, who
is true sportsman, has taken another
meanssof gratifying a whim and securing
pleasure for himself and his friends. To
have everything in keeping, he has also
imported two carloads of foxes from
England, so that in short time the
denizens in and about San Mateo will
imagine, by the blast of horns, the baying
Of hounds and the scurrying to and fro of
men and women, mounted on fleet footed
steeds, that they are indeed back in old
England. Mr. Hobart never does any
thing by halves so long as money will
secure his ends. He is perfectly equipped
for enjoying the sport OF fox hunting to its
. full extent, being the owner Of some of the
best hurdle-iumping horses in the country
just the thing for a cross-country run
where the fences are gateless.
1t is safe to say that as soon as the
hounds get in condition, the hills on the
HOBART estate, back OF San Mateo, will
witness many fox run to earth, whose
brush will afterward adorn the apart
ment of the one fortunate enough to be
in at the death.
How the San Mateo farmers will regard
the innovation is mooted question. The
foxes that escape the hounds are quite
likely to make it interesting for the
grangers' fowls.

ARREST
BY ENDING LIFE
Suicide of an Embezzler
at a Farmhouse Near
Lodi.

Was Wanted in Illinois for Purloin,

Employers.

STOCKTON, CAL, Dec. 19-James R.
Shepherd of Quincy, ILL.,, who was wanted
by the Sheriff of Adams County, of that
State, on charge of embezzling $500 be-
longing to his employers, lies dead at a
farmhouse near Lodi. and Sheriff Gun
ningham is the maddest man in San
Joaquin County at what he declares to
have been the bungling work of the Lodi
Constable, and the Illinois Sheriff, by
which Shepherd was given the opportun-
ity 10 commit suicide.
Sheriff Cunningham on Thursday re-
ceived telegram from Sheriff A. H.
Roth of Adams County asking him to
The San Francisco call., 1896-12-20

arrest Shepher l., who.was supposed to be
with his brother near Lodi. AS the pro-
visions of section 1549 of the Penal Code
are vcrv explicit and recite that the ma
ture of the crime, wherei it was commit
ted and a description of the man must be
given, Sheriff Cunningham, on the ad-
vice of District Attorney Nutter, tele-
graphed for the required information.
This was received this forenoon and the
proper warrant issued. Deputy Sheriffs
Black ana Wall were entrusted with the
task of arresting Shepherd. On their way
to Lodi they met Constable Coleman of
that place and Justice of the Peace Wal
lace. who informed them that Shepherd
had driven them away at the point of a
pistol anG then committed Suicide.
1t seems that the Illinois Sheriff had
notified Coleman by telegraph to arrest
Shepherd, and the Constable, disregard
ing the fofmalities of law, had started to
do as requested. Hefound the man wanted
for embezzlement working in the fields Of
his brother. Alexander Shepherd, six
miles from Lodi. When told that he was
wanted, Shepherd denied that he was the
embezzier, but offered to go with the off,
GERS. He said that he desired to put on
another suit of clothes before going to
Lodi, and Coleman, knowing that Alex
ander Shepherd bore an excellent repu-
tation, permitted the brother to go into
the house to change his clothes and shave
himself. Shepherd returned presently
with 38-caliber pistol and leveIing it at
the Constable and Justice of the Peace, he
compelled them to get into the buggy and
drive away. He tnen returned into the
house and took dose Of strycnnine,
which he evidently carried with him in
anticipation of being arrested.
When the Deputy Sheriffs arrived on
the scene about o'clock Shepherd s
body was still warm, but life was extinct.
The body was brought to the Stockton
Morgue tonight.

MODESTO, CAL. Dec.19 A meeting
to discuss the irrigation difficulties was
held here to-day. The meeting was an
nounced as an anti-irrigation gathering
for the purpose of adopting resolutions
outlining proposed legislation. but many
fayoring irrigation were in attendance at
the opera house, apparently as specta-
tors.
AT. Underwood was chosen as chair
man and Robert Miller secretary. After
some speec h. making principally by the
attorneys for the anti-irrigators, -esolu-
tions we're presented asking the coming
Legislature to allow the. Turlock and
Modesto districts TO surrender all COM
pieted works owned by the districts to a
CORPORATION, company or individuals upon
the return to the people OF all bonds sold
by the districts. This virtually means a
surrender of what has been accomplished
since the formation of the districts in 1887.
This called forth a hot discussion between
the "antis" and the friends of the irriga-
ton law. The resolution was adopted.
Another reso ution was presented and
adopted asking the Legislature TO refund
the bonds, maxim, them forty or nifty
year instead of twenty year bonds

P0RTLhRD'S SENSATION.
Wife of an Elderly Capitalist EIoPes
With Her Husbands Good
looking Nsp!ew.

PORTLAND, Or, Dec. 19. Philip j.
Young, an elderly and wealthy philan-
thropist of Albina. a suburb Of this city,
is he disconsolate victim of a handsome
but faithless wife and a treacherous
nephew. CLAUDE Barker by name.
Barker, who is % years old, came TO
Portland from Hancock County by invita-
tion OF his uncle three months ago, and
Mr.. Young intended to start him in
business. On Sunday last, Claude, his
aunt, and the Iatter's child, went to As
toria on a visit, Mrs. Young taking q
large sum of money with her. They
never came back.
This morning Mr.. Young received let
ter from his wife that nearly broke his
Ieart.' 1t was written from San Francisco,
and stated that she, Claude and her little
child were there. Instead of returning
from Astoria t. ey had taken passage on a
steamer and gone to California.
Mrs. Young made a complete confession
of the love she and Claude bore to each
other, and said they had concluded tn at
il vas impossible for them to live apart.
She begged for forgiveness and asked her
husband not to attempt to separate them,
for it would be of no avail. They had
had sufficient funds to keep them for
few weeks, and by that time Claude
hoped to obtain employment of some
kind. She also intimated that their stay
in San Francisco would be of short dura-
ton, but said nothing OF their intentions
as to the future.
The duped old gentleman left for San
Francisco tonight, and will spend anv
sum of money to locate the couple. He
is resolved TO send Claude 10 the peni-
tentiary if he can succeed in doing SO.

SAN JOSE, CAL, Dec. 19.-San Jose
Grange to-day discussed the question OF
protecting robins and other friendly birds
from the ravages of hunters, Robins do a
great deal of good in orchards and vine
yards by destroying injurious. insects.
About this time of year they are hunted a
great deal and the hunters do much dam
age to the trees and vines by shooting. A
committee, consisting of G. w. Worthern,
j. T. Pettitt and S. A. Durkee, was APP
pointed to see if an ordinance protecting
robins and other friendly birds could not
be passed by the Supervisors.
1t is also proposed 10 make hunting in
orchards without permission a misde-
meanor. The committee will report next

9 DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE. !
1r,r,r,..sl.rrrrErrErcEsEEEEll

New York, January 17.-R u. Dun
& Co.'S weekly review Of trade, which
issues tomorrow, will say:
The situation could hardly be more
parplexing for business men. Prac-
tical merchants, manufacturers and
bankers can have little sympathy for
those who minimize their difficulties.
No. one doubts that the government
will raise money to meet obligations,
but how far the money market will be
disturbed or the treasury reserves di-
m;nished none can say. The business
world cannot know as yet how far for
eign questions may upset calculations,
though there seems every reason TO eX-
pect peaceful settlement l, cannot
knew what may be the duties on any
important class Of imports and draw
away gold. whether the deficit of rev.
enue will con inUe. or what other taxa
ton viii be levied. Failure Of the Ssn-
ate thus far TO take any action upon
financial measures, proposed by the
president or those passed by the House
affects unfavorab.y all branches of bust
rsss.
Speculation in products was not very
active and wheat was practically I'M
changed.
Corn receipts were also liberal and
exports about FIVE times last years.
No branch Of manufacture has pro-
crossed for all are unavoidably ail!ng,
both for settlement of financial doubts
and for a demand which does not yet
appear.
The pig iron output, weekly, January
l. was 207. 4S1 tons. a decrease Of 9,316
stocks increased 91125 tons, or over
10000 weekly. while the great steel COM
panies whose stocks are not reported,
produced IN December 1926 tons.
The production is 50 far beyond the
present demand for finished products
that temporary stoppage of many fur
naces IS expected. Yet pig iron is
higher. Besemer about SOC, and Grey
Forge and Anthracite 25c although
finished products are generally weaker,
with less demand. Controllers Of the

coke and ore outputs are said TO have
agreed 70 maintain prices above those
Of 1895, which means dearer pig iron,
but If orders for finished products do
not materially increase the advance in
materials can hardly be maintained.
Failures for the past week have been
much larger in magnitude, numbering
395 in the United States. against 1913
last year, and 81 in Canada, against 60
last year
