PRoLoNGING THEIR SUSPENSE
Nothing in the Act to Indicate That
the Murderers Will Escape
the Gallows.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, Sept. 24-Gov-
ernor Budd has granted stay of execu-
ton of the death sentence of the Cum
mings brothers, who were 10 have suffered
the extreme penalty of the law at San
Quentin tomorrow, for period of thirty
Gays, or until October 80. This leniency
upon the part of the Executive. however,
is not at all indicative that the death SEN
tence will not be ultimately carried out,
as the sole reason for granting the re-
prieve is the failure. of the sentencing
Judge to carry out that section of tue
Penal Code which provides that copy of
all the evidence in capital crimes must be
forwarded to the Governors Office. This
was not done in the Cummings brothers
case, and when applications for mercy
were received at the Governors Office in
their behalf the Executive found that the
trial testimony was missing and he was
unable to properly examine into the mer-
its of the case, and to enable him to do so
he granted the commutation.

light Engine Runs Into Passenger
Train Near Mountain FietC.
SAN JOSE, Call, Sept. 24-The south
bound passenger train, due here from San
Francisco at 40 o'clock, coIlided with a
light engine just south of Mountain View
to-day. A turn in the road was being ap-
preached. A moment later the engineer
on the passenger train could not have
seen the engine approaching and there
would have been disastrous wreck. The
passenger engine was reversed and came
to standstill. The light engine contin-
ued, but SO slowly that when the crash
came only the cowcatchers on the two
engines were wrecked, and neither of them
nor any of the cars left the track. The
shock threw number of passengers from
their seats, but no one was hurt except
Mrs. George Peck of Troy, n. Y, who had
her knee badly bruised.
The cause of the presence of the engine
on the track on the time of a passenger
train could not be learned. The collision
did not delay the passenger train long.

Coast Range Mountains. They had just
passed Leesville, when the yonng man
leaned over to get a cigarette out of his
coat, which was in the bottom of the
wagon. AS he did so his gun slipped from
his grasp and dropped out of the vehicle.
He grabbed for it just as it struck the
wheel and was discharged, the full con-

day by the arrest of couple of Indians
named Frisco Rodriguez and Antonio
Truiillo, who it is believed had a hand in
the crime. Both these men were arrested
shortly after the murder with two others,
named Antonio Molido and Francisco
Guavish, and all four were at that time
charged with the crime Molido peached
on his pals, telling the whole story of the
crime in all its reeklng details This was
at the trial of the other three men, held
about year ago. The jury disagreed,
however, and when the trials came on
again Guavish was tried separately.
He was acquitted and the officers then
discharged Rodriguez and Truiillo. Mo-
lido was given life sentence in the peni-
tentiary, where he now Is, and Guavish
was later convicted of robbery in Los
Angeles County and sentenced to fifteen
years in the penitentiary.
Ever since the discharge of Rodriguez
and Trujlllo the officers have been diligent
in their search for new evidence in the
case and the arrest of the two men is the
result of their researches. The murder of
Mrs. Piatt was terribly brutal. She was
taken from her home at midnight and
ravished by the four men, according to
Molido's story, after which they dragged

MOORE. ARRIVES At NAPA
Mrs. Greenwood's Murderer on
the Scene of His Awful
Crime.
The Prisoners Confession Supported
by County Treasurer Gardner's
Identification.

NAPA, CAL, Sept. M-This afternoon,
at l o'clock, Sheriff Mckenzie of Napa,
Sheriff Burr and w. e. Shaug of Los
| Angeles brought William Moore, the self
accused murderer of Mrs. Greenwood, to
Napa. They drove to Napa from Vallejo
Junction, having missed the mornings
boat at South Vallejo on the way from the
south. There is no doubt among the peo-
pie of Napa that the accused man is the
murderer. 1t was noised abroad that he
was coming, and crowd of people were
in waiting at the courthouse to witness
the landing of the individual against
HON an awful cri me rests.
There was o<excitement-just a.ouiet
manifestation of satisfaction that the
murderer had been caught. Mr.. Green.
wood was in the Sheriffs Office awaiting
the Sheriff's arrival, but he was unable to
identity the man wnen he was brought
before him. This is not to be wondered
at. however, as MIR. Greenwood was not
acquainted with Moore, and had only seen
him once previous to the night of the
murder.
County Treasurer George F. Gardner. as
soon as he saw the prisoner, exclaimed,
''That is the man."
On the way to Napa Moore said he
True to his promise, when they reached
the house, which is on the county road,
Moore said, THAT is the house." He
also pointed out the place where he had
thrown the harness on the night of the
murder. This was the very place where
Sheriff Mckenzie had picked up theshar-
ness the next morning. The officers say
| there is no doubt of the guilt of the man.
Sheriff Burr of Los Angeles, who surely
ought to be able to Judge, says most en-
phatically that Moore is beyond all ques-
tion the guilty man. As Moore has con-
fessed, all doubt as to his guilt has passed
away. He tried to keep back nothing,
but told all, confirming much that came
out in the trial of Schmidt, his partner in
crime. He is small in stature, wiry OF
build and shows i'll his talk and move
ments great nervous strain and the i'll
effects of long "booze." Before leaving
Vallejo it was necessary to have him pre-
scribed for by physician ana to give him
medicine that would quiet him.

he also cures Piles, Fistula, Rupture and

tention to ailments of the Eye, Ear, Nose.
Throat, Brain, and to diseases of the Heart
Lungs, Liver, Stomach, Kidneys, Bladder

Scott of San Francisco will occupy the
rostrum of the Metropolitan Theater in
behalf of Mckinley and protection.
Although to the world at large and in
fact to majority of the residents of
this city Republicanism during the past
few weeks in this locality has seemingly
occupied restful seat-in reality there
has been vast amount of quiet prepara-
| tory work accomplished. Within a very
short time the Republicans of Sacramento
will enter the political arena with a rush
which will undoubtedly carry everything
before it.
One of the greatest surprises to the
party's political enemies has been the en-
thusiastic spirit which has developed
among the d-handed sons of Toll, who
abor in the various departments of the
railroad shops in this city. Although
fully assured that their political liberty
would in no way be interfered with, and
that they might wear Bryan badges as
large as a mill wheel if they so wished and
believed in the windy banner bearer of
free silver, they have on the contrary
chosen in the main to enroll themselves
beneath the banner of Mckinley and sound
money.
The employees of carshop were the
first TO come out and declare themselves,
and night after night they have repaired
to the Capitol grounds after their hard
| days work and drilled for hours in ell the
various marching evolutions practiced by
crack military corps. They are rapidly
attaining perfection. Their example very
evidently stimulated competition, and
now nearly every department of the vast
plant has organized a Mckinley and
sound money club and are spending their
evenings in. drill practice, so that when
the era of torchlight parades dawns on
the political horizon the most profciently
drilled bodies of men who will gather
beneath the banner of Republicanism will
be the stalwart Iaborers OF the railroad
shops. Nor are the local Assembly clubs
at all idle. AS yet they refuse to divulge
their intentions. The Twenty-first Assem-
bly, Republican Club has 454 names upon
its roster, every one of whom is stanch
believer in protection. The Twentieth
Assembly Republican Club has fully as
many members, and the Mckinley Club
even more, while there are numerous
other clubs in process of formation.
