BIFF! BANG!
Another Boxing Match to Come Off
Very Soon.

In addition TO the glove matches be-
tween Billy Lewis and Charley Turner
and Theodore Van Buskirk and Jack
Stelzner, scheduled respectively for the
18th and 18th of this month, there is
prospect of another being arranged to
take place at an early day
George w. (better known as "Biddy')
Bishop, a Texas featherweight, now in
the city with his manager, Harry l..
Richards, offers to stop Henry Ruben
stein, the local champion, in eight
rounds. Rubenstein says that ''Biddy"
never saw the day he could do the
trick, but is perfectly willing to give
him the chance to put his boast to the
test.
Bishop some years ago fought Jim
Mccormick in this city Cor just outside)
and beat him in sixteen rounds. He
also claims a ten-round draw with
Sclly Smith, and one of six rounds with
Cal. Mccarthy, the New Jersey crack
of a few years ago. Bishop fights at
11S pounds, and is ) feet T%t inches in
hight.
Rubenstein is not as heavy as Bishop,
unless he has increased in weight the
past year. His weight when in condi-
ton has been 10 pounds. and he could
fight even under that figure. He is
very clever, however, and three years
ago won the amateur bantam champi-
oalship of the State at the Olympic
Clubs tournament.

Ready-Made Bridges.

"Ready-made bridges are something

which keep on hand a full stock of
ready-made iron bridges of nearly all
sizes. BY this I do not mean / could

as the Long Bridge. / would have no
difficulty. however, in finding ready
made and packed, SO that it could be
shipped in less than half a day after
the order was received, a bridge as
long as the so-called chain bridge on
the upper Potomac. The customers for
the ready-made bridges are mostly rail-
road companies, who, when they want
anything, want it mighty bad and are
in an awful hurry for it. Only recently
a railroad bridge was washed away
from stream in Pennsylvania. In less
than two hours a bridge ninety-seven
feet long and nineteen and half
feet wide was ordered by wire. In six
hours every part of it was shipped, and
in two hours less than three days time
trains We're running regularly over it.

VIRGINIA CNev.), Jan. Glowing to
the announcement of George Nixon of
Winnemucca that he would contest
with Senator John p Jones for the
Updted States Senate, Joseph r. Ryan,
Chairman of the Democratic State Cen
trail Committee, made the following
statement this evening:
The Nevada Democracy effected
fusion with the Silver party at the Sill
yer Party State Convention held at
Elko, September 8, 1896 That conven-
ton in its platform says: We are in
favor of the election of Hon. John p.
Jones for United States Senator This
certainly committed both the Demo
cratic and the Silver PARTIES to his;
support. When voting for Legislative
candidates on the Silver party or fusion
ticket the voter presumed he was vpt-
ing for men who, if elected, would vote
for Mr.. Jones for United States Senator.
ANY citizen has a perfect right to be
candidate for United States Senator.

candidacy before the battle has been
fought and won by another. who stands

GENERAL FEE BILL.
Declared by the Supreme Court to be
Unconstitutional.

SAN FRANCISCO, JAN 6.-The Su-
preme Court day handed down de-
cision which settles the question of the
unconstitutionality of the general fee
bill of 1895.
The decision given by the lower
courts, which upheld the law, was re-
versed. and the bill. in so far as it per-
tains to the fees of Justices and Con-
stables outside of this county, is now
Intellectual.
The cases which were decided were
those of Justice Dwyer of Santa Clara
County and Auditor Parker of the same
suit against Auditor Parker of Santa
Clara County to recover bills for serv-
ices for amounts in excess of the figures
allowed by law, which limit the total
monthly fees of County Justices and
Constables to $75.
Dryers bill amounted to S141 and
Haley's charges footed UP $153. These
amounts Auditor Powers refused ITO pay
In consequence of the general fee bill
law which allows SO fee for each
criminal execution, but which further
provides that the bills of Justices and
Constables shall not exceed $75 for any
one month.
Dwyer and Haley sued and the Audit
or'S position was sustained by the
lower Superior Court, but the Supreme
Court in its decision has reversed this
ruling and ordered in favor of the ap-
pellant, thus making the law inoper-

BOY DROWNED.
Loses His Life in the South Fork of
Eel River.

EUREKA, Jan. 6.-Word reached
here from Garberville this morning that
the south fork of the Eel River, in this
county, has claimed another victim.
This time it was Johnnie, the fifteen
year-old son Of George Sonerville of
Briceland The accident happened on
New Years Day, when the boy with
two companions went out on the river
in a row boat.
AS usual at this time of theyear, the
river is exceedingly high and swift, and,
getting out into the current, the boys
lost control of the boat, and it was up
set.
Two of the boys managed to cling to
the boat, which was eventually carried
in shore, but young Somerville was
swept down the stream. He was seen
to swim with the current about 200
yards when throwing up his hands, he
cried, Wait for me-" and then sank.
Up to last Monday the body had not
been recovered

SENT TO JAIL.
A Young Thief Who Claims to be
the Son of a Superior Judge.

SAN JOSE, Jan. Ga young man
giving the name of C.. E. Smith was
sentenced to $50 days in the County
Jail to-day. He pleaded guilty to the
charge of petty larceny.
He says Smith is not his true name
and that he is the son of a Superior
Judge. The officers believe he has been
guilty of much crooked work He came
here Christmas week and went into
several jewelry stores ostensibly to buy
a locket. He picked out one at three
different places and paid small deposits,
saying he would call and pay the bal
ance next week.
When the clerk turned away to get
an envelope to put the locket in he stole
one. The lockets range in value from
SO to 500. One was recovered here,
and Detective Frost left for San Fran
cisco at noon to-day to get others in a
pawnshop there
The young man is of good appearance,
and when arrested was stopping at the
st. James Hotel, where he registered
under the name of w. L. Warland of
Spokane, Wash. He evidently had been
we'll reared and nicely educated The
sentence of $50 days this morning is to
hold him until he can be investigated

HIS ENTRIES WILL BE REFUSED
A Race-Horse Owner Who Instructed
Jockey to Pull His nount.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 6.-This af-
ternoon at Ingleside, Judges J. H. Rees
and ]. w. Wilson handed down an i'm
portant decision in the case of the horse
Haymarket, his owner (Boyd) and Jock
ey Stanford, which We're engaged in a
suspicious looking race last week
Just before the race, which was a
steeplechase, Haymarket, who was a
favorite, receded so much in the betting
that the Judges took down Stanford and
put up another jockey. Stanford after
ward told the Judges that the owner,
Boyd, had asked him to pull Haymar-
ket, but he had refused to do so; also.
that he had been importuned to pull
that and other horses several times. All
this caused a great sensation, and the
Judges made a thorough investigation
The decision is that Jockey Stanford
be fined SO and suspended for the rest
of the Ingleside meeting, for not having
told them when he was first requested
to pull the horses. Owner Boyd has
been indefinitely suspended, and his en-
tries, including Haymarket, will be re-
fused in the future

A Story of the Escape of the Slayer
of the Mc(iIincyS.

OREGON CITY (Or.), Jan. 6.-John
w. c. Green, who has been hiding in
this city for the past two days, having
deserted the British ship Lord Elgin,
which left Portland for Cape Town last
week, tells seemingly probable story
about the escape from this country of
James Dunham, who murdered the Nc
Glincys near San Jose, Cal, on the 9th
of May last.
Green says that in April and May he
worked ON the ranch of Bernard Muir
ply, near San Jose, and during a part
Of that time Dunham was fellow-la-
borer with him on the ranch. AT the
end of May Green went to San Fran
cisco and stopped at Peter McManus'
clearinghouse, but shipped from the
Lick House on June 9th as second Off
Ger of the American ship st. John, with
full cargo of wheat and flour for New
York. When seven days out, while the
vessel was off the Mexican coast,
stowaway showed UP ON deck, and
Green recognized him as Dunham.
Durham appealed to Green not to re-
veal his identity, to call him Brown and
treat him well, and gave the officer $50
in gold. At the mates request the stow
away was assigned to his watch and put
to work as a seaman
The st. John had a rather slow pas
sage, and did not arrive at New York
until November 17th Green and Dun
ham went ashore together, and near
the wharf met an officer of the filibus-
tering ship Bermuda. The idea of vol
unteerng greatly pleased Dunham.
and he at once made arrangements to
go to Cuba The vessel left port the
next day, and Dunham went with it.
Green claims that was the last he saw
OF the murderer, whom he did not then
know to be a murderer. In explana-
t1on of his ignorance of the McGlincy
massacre Green says he seldom looks
at a newspaper
Green represented himself as a gradu-
ate of the University of Virginia, class
of st, and his writing and language do
not contradict the claim. He says he
has followed the sea off and on for more
than four years, mostly on the Pacific
and his weather-worn appearance bears
out the assertion. He is now 2S years
old. His parents, he says, live in San
francisco, his father being in the drug
business. He sWears his story is true,
and there is no way either to prove or
disprove ii here.
Green left for San. Francisco tonight.

The Ciampi's crew lowered boats and
pulled to the rescue. Those who re-
malned on the Ciampi saw the schooner
sink rapidly, then disappear beneath the
waves. Scercely five minutes elapsed
between the time of collision and the
moment when the schooner sank. The

the schooner's crew. After the sur
Vivors had been mustered on the ships
deck it was learned that the Moett car
