MORE LOW GRAIN RATES
Will Be Put Into Operation on
Additional Valley Road
Points.
Passenger Service to Be Deferred
Till the Fresno Troubles
Are Settled.

Additional grain rates will be put in
effect to-day by the Valley road They
will cover the four stations for which
class rates were issued Saturday last, and
also Patterson, five miles south of Ian
kershim. No class has or will be issued
for Patterson, as grain is the only COM
modify that will come from there at
present.
In addition to these rates for new points
two reduced rates will be announced to-
day from old stations. The grain rate
from Burnham to Stockton will be re-
duced from so cents 10 80 cents per ton in
carload lots of 24,00O pounds, and that
from EscaIon from 80 cents to 80 cents. To
San Francisco the rate from each of these
points will be so cents higher.
These reductions have been made to
meet teaming competition. 1t was found
that the existing rates from the two point Is
named did not secure the business, and it
is hoped that the new rates will throw the
hauling from the points named to Stock
ton into the hands of the railroad, The
Southern Pacific Company will meet these
reductions and issue all their reduced rates
to-day, though thev are already meeting
the low rates of the Valley road.
The additional rates to be issued TODAY
are for grain in carload lots of not less
than 24000 pounds. They are as follows:

longer. He removed to the corner o1
Clement street and Eighth avenue, in the
Richmond district, something like two
years ago, and resided there until last Sep
tember or October, when he was adjudged
to be insane and was committed to the
State Asylum for the Insane at Stockton
upon the order OF Judge Low.
From all that his friends in the City
have been able to learn about the case.
Mr.. Clements was not considered a dan
gerous patient at Stockton. They have
no positive information on that point,
however. The dispatches say that he had
been in the habit of kicking the patients
on the shins at the asylum at Stockton.
which was the offense that caused Gustaf-
sen to strike him with fatal result.
They say that even If he was danger
Gus patient that is no reason why he
should have been allowed to have fallen
into the danger which has cost him his
life. and that If he was not dangerous
patient he ought not to have been in the
company of Gustafson. They admit at
the came time that they know compare
tiyely few of the facts. Such facts as thev
know onIy have tended to arouse their
INDIGNATION and to stimulate their desire
to have all of the particulars carefully
looked into.
Mr.. Clements was still quite young, be-
ing AGED 40 years. ne WIS q Ddcn6lOr,
without relatives in the United States so
far as is known by his friends in this City.
He has brother in Ireland OF whom he
often spoke, and he was reported by
Mr.. Clements to intend to come soon to
this country and possibly to San Fran
cisco to reside.
Mr.. Clements was somewhat quiet and
reserved in his lodgings, and this is about
all the information that he furnished con-
cerning his family connections. No re.
sponsibillty is attached to Gustafsen, who
was the cause of Mr.. Clements death, as q
matter of course.
Daniel Sullivan, an old friend of Mr..
Clements, has gone to Stockton and
will probably make arrangements to bring
the remains 10 this City for interment. Ii
is also probable that some action may De
taken by the members of Court Eclipse
No. IA of the Order of American Foresters
to pay fitting respect, and they may take
other action. Very likely Daniel Sullivan
may inquire particularly at Stockton con-
cerning Mr. Clements death. He is ex-
pected back to-day or Monday. Yester-
day he was not at his place of business on
Mission street, having gone to Stockton as
soon as possible after he heard of the de-
mise of Mr.. Clements. The two men have
been friends for years. Some interest will
attach to what Mr.. Sullivan may say upon
his return.

THE HORSES RAN AWAY.
Rare Presence Of Mind Displayed
by Father Powers of
Livermore.
BE Stops the Horses in a Patrol
Wagon and Prevents Very
Serious Accident.

The horses attached to the Southern
station patrol wagon bolted at Eighth and
Mission streets yesterday afternoon and,
but for the presence of mind of Rev
Father Powers of Livermore, a serious ac-
cldent would have resulted.
About o'clock there was call for the
wagon to go to 10S Sixth street. Mrs. Van
de Bogart, the wife of policeman Van de
Bogart, had fallen downstairs and frac-
tured her nose, cut her forehead and other
wise injured herself.
Policemen Galloway and Beach accom-
panied the wagon and they put the woman
on the stretcher and started for the Re-
ce1ving Hospital. At Eighth and Mission
streets, the driver, Henry Carlson, made a
sharp turn to avoid colliding with pass
ing team and one of the wheels went over
a large cobble-stone. The sudden lurch to
the side threw Carlson from his seat and
the horses took fright and dashed north
on Eighth street.
Carlson had the reins in his hands
and cIung to them while being dragged
along the street for about fifty yards,
way and Beach climbed to the front of the
wagon in the hope that they might get
hold on the reins, but as the reins were
trailing on the ground they were helpless.
The horses dashed across Market street
and evidently knew where tiey were
going, as they turned into City Hall
avenue and made for the hospital.
Father Powers was standing on the
corner of the two avenues talking to City
and County Attorney Creswell. The
horses were making straight for the
coping IN front of the hospital and
serious accident was imminent when
Father Powers, with rare presence of

current year, Williams deposited in two
local banks no less than from $12 900 and
S15,0O0 His salary during this period
amounted to $500. 1t is to be presumed,
of course, that Williams spent something
for household expenses, hence the proba-
bility of him having speculated and saved
$15, 900 out of the remainder of his salary
is not to be seriously considered, except as
contingent possibility.

one-third OF the sum actually placed by
Williams in the bank, through his wife,
during the two and half years he served
as Chinese Inspector. The deposits in the
Hibernia Savings and Loan Society from
October 19, 1893, to April 13. 1896, ex-
elusive of interest, were as follows:
