Combine of. Bakers.

STOCKTON, CAL, April 1.-The princi-
pal bakers of this city have combined and
the result of their com bine went into effect
to-day. They have been contemplating
the move for some time, but it was not un
til last night that the matter was got into
definite shape. The bakers say that the
combine is not for the purpose of getting
corner" on bread, but simply to decide
upon a uniform price. Their action is di-
rected al the restaurants and hotels partlc
ularly and the restaurateurs and the
hotel men are wroth and threaten to refuse
to buy bread from any in the combine.
1t has been the custom here for some
time for the suppliers of bread to the pub
lie eating-places to also furnish a boarder
or two to the hotel or restaurant patroniZ-
ing them. Sometimes an employe of the
bakery would board at the hotel or res
taurant and he would get special rates,
while the bakery would be charged the
regular price for his fare. Thus at the end
of each month the bakers bill! would be
in part offset by the account of the res
taurant or hotel man. The bakers decided
to do away with that so they fixed
wholesale rate for bread to be furnished to
the restaurants and hotels for cash. A fine
OF 500 was agreed upon as a penalty for
each violation OF the compact.

SOLAKO COUNTY PRESERVES.
CordeGa Shooting CLUB viii Make Another
Effort to MonopoHze Hunting
PriWIeoeS

SUISUN, CAL, April Ia motion will
be made in the Superior Court of Solano
County to obtain a new trial in the case of
G. w. kellogg, trustee OF the Cordelia
Shooting Club, VS.. William King ct al.
An action was brought by this club last
November to restrain the defendant IS from
hunting on the Chamberlain tract, on the
ground that irreparable injury was done to
the hunting privileges of the mem bers.
The case occupied the attention of
the court for some time, and much interest
was taken in the proceedings. The de-
PENDANTS maintained that the club had no
legal existence and had license only for
forty members to shoot over the grounds
in question.
The decision of Judge Buckles was
lengthy and covered every point advanced
by the respective counsel. The Judge was
opposed TO the establishment of preserves
on the Suisun marshes, which he stated
savored strongly of English Iandlordism.
He denied the injunction asked for and
gave judgment for the defendants. Judge
Buckles maintained that the lease gave tn q
members of the Cordeia Club q license
for only forty members to shoot over the
ground, and they had no right to prevent
other people from going on the marshes to
hunt il they did not modest the rights of
others.
Ii the motion for new trial is refused
an appeal will be made in the Supreme
Court.

less difficulty was encountered until two
weeks ago, when the big pipe was lost and
broken.
After several attempts to pull up the
pipe it was decided to run down smaller
one. A five-inch pipe was placed inside of
the larger one and the work renewed.
When the iron tube was down 500 feet the
workmen met peculiar obstruction in the
shape OF an outburst of sand, steam and
hot water.
In short time the lowlands were COW
cred with boiling water. The water rises
IN stream five inches in diameter to a
height of several inches above the mouth
OF the pipe, and retains a temperature of
loo degrees. 1t is strongly impregnated
with sulphur and other chemical proper
ties, which fill the air with an unpleasant t
odor.
Civil engineers in this city are of the
opinion that the water comes from the
same strata that furnishes the famous
Arrowhead Hot springs, to the north of
San Bernardino. Hundreds of people have
visited the VIII, and one person who
claims to be suffering from acute rheuma-
tism says that he batne ed his arms in the
waters and felt immediate relief.

BRIDGING THE MERGED.
Satisfactory Progress Made by
the San Joaquin Valley
Road Constructors.
Grant Brothers Will Soon Move Their
Camp to the Chowchilla
River.

FRESNO, CAL, April 1.-Assistant Eu-
gineer Edes of the Valley Railroad was in
Fresno to-day. He reports very satisfac-
tory progress in the work of construction
all along the line. The bridge now build
ing over the Tuolumne River will soon be
completed and the piling for the Merced
River bridge is nearly done. It is ex-
pected that the bridge being built across
the Merced River will be completed some
time about the last of this month. The
work of laying the track between the
bridge and the town of Merced will require
but few days time. Grant Brothers
who have done most of the grading, will
do the grading through MADEIRA County.
1t is expected that they will move their
camp to the Chowchilla River within the
next ten days.
Work will be commenced on the San
Joaquin River bridge some time during
the latter part of April. The plans have
been completed and accepted, but ina
billty to secure the required timber for the
superstructure has necessarily delayed the
com mmencement of the work.
The committee of ten here has about
concluded its Iabors in securing rights-of-
way through Fresno County. There are a
few small strips which have not yet been
purchased owing to the failure of owners
to agree upon terms. As final resort
these pieces of property will be made sub
ject to condemnation suits, which will be
instituted by the company in a few days.

.UK|AH SPORTSMEN ACT,
Fish Commissioner Hollingsworth
Accused Of Violating the
Game Laws.
Warrant for His Arrest Is Sworn Out
and He Will Be Vigorously
Prosecuted.

UKIAH, CAL, April IA warrant was
sworn out this afternoon charging ]. D.
Hollingsworth, resident Fish Commis-
sloner, with a misdemeanor in having
caught trout during the closed season. On
Monday evening meeting of the Sports
mems Club was neld, at which letter was
read charging Holingsworth with having
committed this offense. The Commits
sioner was surprised at the accusation, but
finally acknowledged having been fishing
during February.
Hollingsworth had been particularly
active in the pursuit of illegal deer-hunters
and illicit trout-fishers, and only last week
had arrested a man from San Francisco
and succeeded in having him fined for
trout.catching: The culprit was made to
pay $50, and Hollingswood had gone to
the meeting of the Sportsmen's Club in
the expectation of receiving the informer's
portion OF the reward, when the surprise
was sprung on him. The warrant was
sworn to by J. G. Ruddock, on behalf of
the club, and the offender will be severely
punished, 1t is said, in case he is con-
victed.

STOCKTON, CAL, April l. Samuel
Henery, formerly Chief of Police of this
city, has returned from San Diego and

chance to secure another big industry. A

preference for Stockton. They will locate
lnf plant mere proylaed edo thes can secure
being built in San Diego by Minneapolis

chance of securing the plant. Mr.. Henery

SANTA ROSA'S ELECTION.
Democrats Believed to Have Seated Their
Mayorafy Candidate After Liyey
c1mpuiqn.

SANTA ROSA, CAL, April 1.-The live
liest city election for many years was held
here to-day. Nearly 140O votes were cast,
being the most in the history of the city.
There were three regular tickets in the
ffeld-Democratic, Republican and Popu-
list-with independent candidates for
many offices. The offices of mayor, mar
shal, clerk. treasurer city attorney, re-
corder, assessor and street com missioner
were to be filled, and three councilmen
and five library trustees chosen.
The main fight was over the mayoralty
and the Offices of Street Commissioner and
City Marshal. Over 450 votes were polled
IN Precinct 2, which makes it impossible
to finish the count before morning.
From present indications the offices will
be evenly divided between the two old
parties and the following gentlemen will
undoubtedly be selected:
Mayor, Dr. j. w. Jesse CD; Marshal,
W. J; steadman (R0; Clerk, 6. w. Mob
ley CD; Attorney, o. o. Webber (R) i;
Street Commissioner, John McMinn Sr
Cd; Assessor, r. l.. Johnson (R.); Re-
corder, w. K. McCorkle CD.
For Councilmen it is believed the Demo-
Gratis will elect NJ. J. Bower and ]. M. Car
ter, and w. B. Simpson, the Repu ublioan
candidate, will be the third. For library
trustees the result is still in doubt
The official returns Will not be given out
until late hour in the morning, but un-
less unlooked-for changes occur at the last
moment, the complete ticket will be as
stated.

dered Vacaressa was found, had been
pried open with chisel. The officers are
inclined to the belief that this was done as
a blind, as the woman was not asleep at
the time and claims to have heard no
noise until the man stood beside her by
the bed and spoke to her.
The inquest tonight developed the fact
that the murder must have been COM
mitted by Mrs. Vacaressa herself, but the
Coroners jury rendered a verdict of death
by strangulaticn at the hands of some
person or persons unknown. The District
Attorney will probably enter a formal
charge OF murder against the woman to-
morrow

GUESTS OF SANTA

Sights of the Pretty Town by
the Sen

SANTA CRUZ, CAL, April 1.-The Van
derbilt- Depew party was entertained by
John r. Chace of the Sea Beach Hotel here
this afternoon. Upon the arrival of the
special train Mr.. Chace, through Division
Superintendent Frasier of the Southern
Pacific presented Mayor Effey. Liutenant-
Governor Jeter Judge Logan of the Supe-
rior Court and Richard Thompson of the
Wells-Fargo Express Company. and the
visitors, including their guests-George
R. Fearing of Newport, John Hone OF New
Jersey and c. T. Crocker of San Francisco,
were taken by Mr.. Chace for a drive over
the cliff road, returning to the Sea Beach
Hotel. They visited several points of in
terest. passing Lighthouse point and
stopping at the residence of Judge
Logan, situated on an elevation
of nearly 800 feet, from which
they gained fine view OF the surrounding
country and the sea. Mr.. Depew de-
clared this the grandest natural promi-
nence that he had seen in California, and
said the half hour spent there among the
flowers and trees would furnish the locals
for several after-dinner stories that would
be no discredit to California. Mr.. Van
derbilt was far more free and expressive
than he is accredited with being.
When they returned, the Santa Cruz
gentlemen spent pleasant quarter OF an
hour in the cars, which, Mr.. Vanderbilt
said, would have carried them 5000 miles
when they returned to New York.
And out of twenty-five nights" he
added, speaking with some diffidence,
1--WE have spent eighteen in the cars. We
have every accommodation, every con-
venience-and he looked with show OF
pride at the magnificent caparisoning-all
that one could ask travelling about the
country behind a locomotive" )"
Except telephone" remarked Mr..
Depew, dryly, without looking up from a
telegram he was writing.
But we can tap the wires" rejoined
Mr.. Vanderbilt, with a 81 light blush.

bridge Canal Company to organize for tn e
purpose of bidding in the property of the
company to satisfy their claims. The
movement is headed by J. c. Thompson,
a capitalist of this city, and number of
the other large creditors are also interested
in the movement. At present the system
is not paying, ana is in the hands of E. c..
Chapman as receiver. Ever since its start
the concern has gone behind and the men
who built the canal have not received the
money for their work. Altogether, ac-
cording to Mr.. Thompson, the company
owes something like $4,000.

SAN BERNARO|NO'S
VOLCANIC CAVE,
Discovery of the Probable Source
of the Arrowhead Hot
Springs.
FLAMES FROM A DEEP CAVERN.
Lake of Lava Uncovered by the Blast
of Heavy Charge of
Dynamite.

SAN BERNARDINO, CAL, April t.
A wonderful and interesting discovery has
been made near Arrowhead Springs by
Thomas Hatten, pioneer resident of San
Bernardino, and the owner OF big ranch
near the foothills. He has found the proba-
BILE source of the warm water in and about
Arrowhead Springs.
Hatten on Tuesday started in quest OF
sheep that were missing. Following an
old trail over Waterman Canyon, he came
upon natural basin formed by rocks.
While gazing about the little valley he saw
at distance of about $50 yards thin
white column of smoke issuing from be-
hind boulder. Believing it was camp
fire, he went toward it to ascertain if the
campers had seen his sheep. When Hatten
reached the rock he found no sign of life
and the smoke had disappeared.
Hatten determined to investigate The
big bowlder was in the way, and he went
to quarry some distance away and pro-
cured dynamite. One of the quarrymen.
named Burke. accompanied him back.
They put big charge OF dynamite under
the rock, and it was blown to atoms.
From the spot where the bowlder stood
issued sheet of flames. throwing out in.
tense heat. After the flames subsidized the
men approached the spot and discovered a
cave of some depth, at the bottom OF which
there appeared to be flowing lava. 1t will
probably be some time before the cavern
can be fully explored, owing to the intense
heat issuing from its mouth.
In various parts of the mountains in the
vicinity of this discovery are lava forma-
tions. Scientists have been irving for
some time to fathom the origin of the
many warm springs in and about Arrow
head, but the honor of the discovery has
fallen to Hatten

reputation. He described visit of his
son-in-law made to his house shortly after
he was informed by his wife that she had
been wronged by Hill against her will.
Mossman was greatly agitated. To Purcell
the man seemed to be in desperate frame
of mind.
This afternoon, during the introduction
of testimony. the plaintiff offered the
deposition of ''Captain" Minnie Hail. wife
of the defendant. who is now in san Fran
cisco. Mrs. Hill states her knowledge of
she occurrences set up as basis for the
complaint for damages
Captain Hill and his lawyers claim the
suit is an attempt to blackmail him, and
they will show in defense that it is partly
the result of family row.

STANFORD GIRLS TRAINING
Captain McCray of the Basket
Ball Team Regrets Lack
of Enthusiasm.
Fair Athletes Demand a Grant of
Varsity Standardization of
the Trackmen.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CAL,
April 1.-The basketball girls are meeting
with some OF the discouragements which
overtake the other branches of athletics
here. First, there is the trouble of secur.
ing Varsity sweaters for the members of
the team, and-worse still-the team
doesn't turn out enough players to permit
OF real game. Last evening there were
but eight Stanford girls on hand to meet
the Castllleja team; but they managed to
win the game by score of to l. Captain
McCray can't understand why her players
do not enter with the required amount of
enthusiasm into the practice. when the
match with the Berkeley girls is to come
off so soon. Were it not for the Castillo ia
girls, who volunteered to practice with
the Stanford team, the latter would be in
poor condition for actual work with it's
Berkeley rivals.
The trackmen are to have a training
table from now until the field day with
Berkeley. Most of the athletes are getting
back to work after the vacation. The
track IS in very Door condition, but will
probably be remedied before long. Most
of the runners are in fair condition now
and will merely have to maintain their
present state.
The glee ana mandolin clubs returned
from their southern tour last evening ia
tigued, but with pleasant recollections OF
their trip. Treasurer Hinsdill, who ac-
companied the clubs. states that they
came out loser to the extent of $500 or $500,
but plans were under way for making up
this deficit. Before the executive commit
tee permitted the clubs to make this trip
II required guarantee of $400, which was
given. In this manner the student body
was protected against any loss. The gem
eral feeling here Is that the clubs did ex-
ceedingly well, considering that it was
their first tour.
Tomorrow afternoon Chauncey NJ De-
pew is to address the students in the
chapel and everybody is planning to hear
the brilliant New Yorker.
