WHO HAS THE JEWELS a?
w. j. Bradley and Miss Stone Re.
leased From Custody.

Things have taken another turn IN
the case of the Wachhorst diamond rob-
berry, and from present appearances the
story of THE Moonstone" may pale
into insignifcance in comparison with
the facts, before the jewels are finally
recovered-if they ever are.
The Record Union" yesterday told
how a young man named w. ]. Bradley
and a woman named Nellie Stone had
been arrested on suspicion of being the
parties who gathered UP the diamonds
and made off with them while others
pursued the thief, Frank Holden, who
had been tripped and fell at Fourth and
streets, but soon regained his feet
and fed.
All day yesterday Chief of Police
Drew was occupied in following the many
ends of the tangled skein Of suspicion
which had been thrown around Bradley
as the man who had profited by the
robbery. 1t may here be said that each
and every skein SO followed ended where
it begun, SO that In the eyes Of Chief
Drew, at least, Bradley is entirely inno-
cent.
I'VE don't know anything about who
got the diamonds" said Chief Drew in
speaking on the subject last evening,
'but I am satisfied that Bradley has
not got them and never had them"
In regard to the stories brought to the
| notice Of the police, that a half-dozen
persons were ready and willing to
swear that they saw Bradley pick up
the tray and cary it away, Chief Drew
said there was nothing In any Of them,
and that not one of those persons had
seen Bradley pick up the tray contain
ing the diamonds or anything else.
The Chief further stated that he would
advise the City Attorney to release both
Bradley and Miss Stone, as he was sat
isfied no case could be made against
them.
The stories told by Bradley and Miss
Stone, when examined separately after
| their arrest, are now known to have
been similar, even as to minute details,
and Chief Drew is inclined to believe
that their actions were only natural.
After taking part in the efforts to stop
the thief, and no doubt sharing in the
excitement Of the moment, nothing
could have been more natural than for
Bradley and his companion to have fol-
lowed the pursued man with their eyes
until his capture, and then have moved
away when the CROWD gathered.
Last evening, after the Chief of Police
had consulted with the City Attorney.
Bradley and Miss Stone We're called
from their cells and given their liberty
Thus the matter rests where it did the
night of the robbery, and the question
who has the diamonds?" is still in
order

OUR SEWERAGE.
What an Engineering Journal Has to
Say About 1t.

In the last number Of Municipal En-
gineering," magazine published at
Indianapolis, Ind, and devoted to paw
ing, sewerage, water works. sanitation,
etc, appears the following on Tho
Sewerage Of Sacramento:
The city of Sacramento lies largely
on low land, some Of which Is below
high water level in the river, and its
outlet sewers must be below the level of
the river. The entire discharge must
therefore be pumped over the levee into
the river. The outlet sewer will be six
feet in diameter, and will carry off a
rainfall of one inch in twenty-four
hours, or about 100000 gallons an
hour. In the bottom OF the sewer 1t la
proposel to place a channel twenty
four inches in diameter, made Of the
half of twenty-four-inch pipe to carry
the ordinary flow Of the sewage. Flush
tanks are to be put at the end of each
branch to keep the pipe lines clean in
the dry season. These flush tanks will
discharge from $50 to 800 gallons each
twice a day, altogether using about
250, 900 gallons q day.

THE STATE FAIR.
What an Observant and Competent
Critic Saws of 1t.

William g. Laying, editor OF the
Breeder and Sportsman" who was
here during the State Fair in the inter-
est of his paper, says of 1t:
"The people of California, from Ore
gon to Lower California and the Sierras
to the sea, have reason to be proud of
the splendid fair and race meeting
which ends to-day at Sacramento. For
three weeks the interest has been sus-
tanned by those who come from far and
near to inspect the exhibits and watch
the races. The manner in which the
fair was conducted redounded to the
credit Of President c. Nj. Chase, as
sisted by the efficient Board OF d.
rectors and Secretary Edwin +. smith
Early and late these gentlemen nave
been on duty. Their work has been
made a labor of love; and to the proper
presentation of everything that would
be a. credit to California, at this, the
greatest State Fair in America have
they cheerfully devoted all their time
and weu-earned knowledge No re-
quest, even from the humblest, has been
overlooked.
THE corps of assistants they en-
ployed were in every way capable, and,
aided by these and desire on the part
of the people of Sacramento to make
the fair one never to be forgotten,
the visitors who arrived were most
agreeably surprised. Such a Pavilion
exhibit was never seen before, every
thing being arranged to please the eye,
and all semblance of a 'huckstering dis
play was removed. The mechanical,
industrial and agricultural displays
were such as all Californians might
excellent, and the thousands who at
tended the Pavilion nightly attested
their appreciation by repeated encores.
"The dairying interests occupied a
most prominent place, and the crowds
that gathered around that portion of
the large building assigned to these
industrious butter and cheese workers
showed how anxious they were to know
more about the advancement made in
this branch Of industry.
THE poultry exhibit was the largest
and best ever seen In California Ev-
eryone who attended the fair seemed to
be interested in the feathered candi-
dates for prizes and as object lessons
for those embarking in the poultry
business, exhibits like these are the
very best.
"At the race track the same quiet or
der prevailed. Everyone in charge
knew his duty and adhered strictly to
It, The stock exhibit, although not
quite as large as in previous years, was
Of a far higher quality, and so close
was the competition in the various
cIaSaes that considerable time was
taken in making the awards. A gen.
tleman from Illinois remarked that
in no State in the Union could there
be an exhibition Of livestock to sur
pass this for quality"

FOR SOUND MONEY.
Applications for Membership in the
Local League.

Arthur E. Miller was the fifth and last
member Of the committee appointed to
perfect the organization and take proper
steps to secure members for the Sound
Money League which was organized in
this city on Friday evening last on the
lines of the Sound Money League Of San
Francisco. After the announcement Of
Mr.. Miller's name the committee organ
ized by electing A. Heilbron Chairman
and Arthur E. Miller Secretary.
Several members Of the committee re-
ported that they had already received
applications for membership from a
number OF sound money men from both
of the old parties.
AS the league was formed as a nom
partisan body 1t was decided that the
committee should be increased from five
to nine members, and the additional four
will be named at an early date.
It was further agreed to place mem
bership rolls In the hands of reliable
parties, other than the committee, in
order that a thorough canvas might be
made.

LIKE A TRIUMPHAL MARCH.
Congressman JohnSon'S Campaign In the
South.
His Meeting at Coulterville Last Week
Received With Great
Enthusiasm.

CONGRESSMAN Grove L. Johnson, the
Republican candidate for reelection in
the Second District, has been stirring
UP great enthusiasm among the people
since he began his campaign in the
southern counties Of the district.
A gentleman who has just returned
from down there, and Who was at Coul-
terville, Mariposa County. when Mr..
Johnson spoke there a few nights since,
says the citizens assured him that Mr..
johnson's meeting was the biggest that
was ever held in the place. There was
10 hall in the town large enough to
hold one-third of the people who had
come from far and near to see and hear
their Congressman.
Mr.. Johnson was met a half mile
from the town by the Republican Club
members and a large number of other
citizens. including ladies and the Glee
Club. who had procured a brass band
with which to welcome and escort him
into town. They also took along an
wills and firearms for firing salutes, and
thus a procession was formed that
marched back into Coulterville, making
the country round about ring with mu-
sic and the roar Of exploding gunpow-
der.
Fully 1000 persons gathered in the
evening to listen to Mr.. Johnson, and
our informant-who had often heard
him speak in public-declares that he
never heard him address a public gath
ering with better effect The meeting
was presided over by H. H. Clark, one

half and held the closest attention of
his auditors until the end. Repeatedly
they interrupted him with applause.
The occasion was more of the nature
of general fete than partisan demon
stration. The ladies Of Coulterville had
prepared hundreds of beautiful bou-
quets which they distributed among the
men at the meeting, and the members
of the local base ball club joined in a
body IN doing honor to the guest of
the evening.
Coulterville has a Mckinley Club
numbering 140 members, and they are
doing good work in that section In the
interest of protection for American in

amounts to 1000. 900 to 6,OO00 900 gallons
a day. Where the entire discharge must
be pumped, as in this case, it is evident
ly essential that the amount Of sewage
be reduced to the lowest possible figure.
The population of the city Is about 3d.
600. The amount Of storm water pro-
vided for in the outlet or intercepting
sewer is therefore about five times the
present amount Of sewage discharge,
assuming that all the water supplied
flows off through the sewers. The rain
fall of Sacramento is not large, but will
frequently be more than one-tWenty-
fourth inch an hour. The excess must
be discharged directly into the river
from the areas above high water. 1t
would seem to be the proper procedure
to design the outlet to take all the storm
water from the low ground and none
from the higher ground"

fact that the cost of the manufacture of

REFUNDING LICENSE DEPOSITS.


Controller Bowler Susfalns the Dis
trfct Authorities.
Judge Bowler, controller of the treasury,
has authorized the refunding of deposits
for liquor licenses not granted. His letter
to the District Commissioners on the sub
ject concludes as follows:
THE doubt which the first controller en-
tertained as to the applicability of these
Sc ctions lin an act of the District legislature
in 1872 providing for refund) to fees for per-
mits under the act of April %, 1892, arose
from the provision therein which required
one-half of said fees to be deposited In the
treasury to the credit of the United States,
as 1t was not seen how an act of the leSis-
lative ASSEMBLY of the District could create
an appropriation of moneys once deposited
to the credit Of the United States.
"As, however, the acts of the legislative
assembly, in force prior to the passage Of
the organic act, were by the provisions of
that act adopted and ratified by Congress,
as If made by Congress itself, they should
be given the same force and effect as If
they had in fact been passed by Congress,
and therefore they constitute appropria-
ticns for the repayment of taxes erron-
eously paid, and of license fees when the
licenses for which the fees are paid are
subsequently refused by legal authority.
Therefore you are authorized to refund
fees paid for permits under section Of
the act Of April %, 1892, when said per-
mits are refused, notwithstanding the
amount of the fees paid therefor have been
deposited into the treasury of the United
States in accordance with the provisions of
section 3 Of said act"
