A LAND OFFICE BUSINESS.
WHOLESALE PILFERING BY A
YOUNG MAN.
Gerald Atherton Carley Tells the
Officers He Is a Klepto-
maniac.

Gerald Atherton Carley is the name of
a young man who was arrested yester-
day for the larceny Of several small ar
tieles, chiefly from the store of Vein
stock, Lubin & Co., where for time he
was employed as salesman.
The discovery of the various thefts
came about by Captain Fisher and Off
Ger Maley coming across young Carley
while he was trying to dispose of a
mans travelling case in a pawnshop.
The officers suspicious were aroused,
and they instituted an investigation
into the young mans conduct
The result was the discovery that he
had been selling similar articles at
various places, and he was arrested.
The young man freely admitted that he
had been purloining articles for some
time and disposing of them for small
sums. He gave list of the places that
had suffered through his operations,
and where he had sold the plunder, and
the officers have rounded up about all
Of it.
He had got away with a shotgun from
William Eberhardt, another from Will
lam Eckhardt, and another from Flohr
His plan was to hire gun for month
and then sell it for about one-tenth its
value.
Besides taking about a dozen travel
ing (or pocket cases from Weinstock
Lubin & Co. while in their employ, he
also carried away a coat and vest and
a macintosh. The articles are now in
the office of Chief of Police Drew.
Young Carley attributed his thefts to
the alleged fact that he is a kleptoma-
niac-that he is. possessed Of an uncon-
trolable desire to nip" things that
come in his way. But the real klepto-
maniac does not start out at the first
opportunity to sell things he purloins
On the contrary, he secretes them, as
If he did not know what to do with
them. 1t was not kleptomania that i'm
PEELED the young man to pawn a watch
lent him by young lady friend.
1t is not likely, however, that any
thing more serious than petit larceny
can be made out against him. as none
Of the articles taken are worth more
than a few dollars, except the guns,
and these will probably not amount to
the grand larceny figure.
The young man said last evening that
he was suffering from asthma, and his
cell was changed. In the one from
which he was removed was found a
piece of paper on which ne had been
writing. 1t was covered with lines
reading: "He is not sane" '.He is not
sane" 'Sane-sane-san etc.

FAMILY ALLOWANCE.
Mrs. Sol. Runyon Allowed $3.50 a
Month From the Estate.

Judge Hughes yesterday heard the
matter of the application of Mrs Sol.
Runyon for a monthly allowance of
$3.50, with the result that it was grant
ed.
The executors of the estate objected
to that sum being allowed, and urged
that $3.50 ought to be sufficient.
Sol Runyon's estate was appraised
at S345, ,000, and as Mrs. Runyon and
her daughter, who are the chief persons
concerned, asked for the larger amount,
Judge Hughes said he did not feel justi-
fed in denying their request. He did
not consider a $3.50 allowance as ex-
cessive, in view of the value Of the
estate and the fact that it's liabilities
are small
Mrs Runyon intimated that she de-
sired to go abroad and the sum she
asked for would be required to meet
her wants

Monthly Meeting Yesterday OF the
Executive Committee.

The usual monthly meeting of the
Executive Committee of the Ant1-De-
bris Association was held in this city
Yesterday, and was presided over by
Supervisor John brennan, Chairman
Jenkins being absent
The committee was informed that a
motion had been made in the United
States Circuit Court in the case or
the United States VS.. the North Bloom
field Mining Company to have that
court issue an injunction pending an
appeal The hearing of the motion has
been continued one week.
1t was reported by r. /. Devlin, at
tor-ney for the association, that John
McKelvey of Oakland had applied to
him to secure a recommendation for
permission to mine in Placer County.
McKelvey stated that he could not re-
strain the slickens from his mine from
entering the river.
The committee decided not to grant
the desired recommendation, and noti-
fed McKelvey that if he mined in
Placer County in such a way that the
debris entered one Of the streams trib-
,1tary to the rivers he would be prose-
cl1ted to the full extent of the law.

Army man had taken considerable in
terest in the matter, as the deceased
was an old soldier-that he did not
want the county to stand the expense
of his fathers burial, but would attend
to it himself.
The case is certainly very singular
one, especially as young Scott is said
to be a temperate person.
So far as the expense connected with
the interment is concerned, the de-
ceased left more than sufficient ready

BABY's SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

Tells all about Her Troubles when
Baby Broke out with ScrofuIa Sores.
AT the age of two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used all the external ap-
plications that we could think or hear of,
TO no avail. The sores spread all over one
side Of his face. We consulted physl-
clan and tried his medicine, and in a week
the sore was gone. But tony surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on baby's arm. 1t
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, began giving him
Hoods Sarsaparilla. l also took Hoods
Sarsaparilla, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. He is now four years old,
but he has never had any sign of those
scrofulous sores since he was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla, for which / feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health

IN THE
k.&ets

Tho pressure ON the industrials continued
to day and there was a feeling that prices
would probably work somewhat lower. As
far as sugar is concerned the talk against the
stock il based chiefly upon the tariff, but II Is
upon the legislative investigation in reference
TO Tobacco, Rubber and Leather. Although
there has been some realizing in Northern Pa
cific the selling has not brought out u very
large amount OF long stock.
The early London cables were eagerly scan
ned by local operators in view of the critical
condition in Crete ana its effect on leading
financial centers abroad. Prices for Americans
were reported point off British consols were
off i.s and various properties were so weak
that the bears took advantage OF the condi-
tions to raid the list. Considerable activity
was developed at once and round amonnts Of
stock were offered by arbitrage houses result
ing from the concessions of 5LalI4 per cent.
on the international shares. Later the report
OF the Creian situation produced nearly PAN
ic and there was a general decline. Consols
fell IA, foreign securities were all lower,
some railroads were in state Of collapse and
Americans were fiat.
Toward the close OF the aft ternoon the panic
on the stock exchange, which was largely due
to Idrls anu Nichha uuothliohs SuOSiuou oh
the publication of the semi i-ofiicial statement
on the Cretan situation from Berlin and
closed decidedly improved and a special dis
patch to Hallett Anderson g. Co., states that
the danger Of an outbreak in the East is cer-
'ainly sufficient to check any activity in Lon
don. although the best opinion is that the
powers will not permit the peace of Europe to
reach more threatening stage. Capital IS
still timid and not only that, but il is Jealous
of competition prices.
The break in Il. G. l. is attributed to a be-
lief that the outcome Of the steel rail situa.
titon would be unfavorable to this as well as
to the other Southern iron companies. The
explanation is by no means as clear as IL
might be as il is difficult to see how the col
lapse of a steel rail pool should effect iron
companies adversely.

Suit to Recover webb's Losses at the

There was an unusual number of challenges
for civil case in the empanelling OF jury
i'm the case of Erneline d. Webb against Stephen
H. Briggs and james 4. Angel to recover
money lost by ner husband, William w. Webb
at gambling.
The jury. when empannelled, heard s. s.
Lapha IN, the attorney for the plaintiff make
his statement. He said William W. Webb. who
had been "A mechanic and gambler all his
life got short of funds to carry ON either
avocation and took or stole. accordingly as
the evidence would disclose some of his wife's
money and deposited it in faro bank.
The first witness called was MIR. Webb, who
Is n carriage painter. He began his testimony
by saying that he had lost money that be-
louged To his wife in the alleged Brggs.An-
gell house, on Clemence street, Of which ono
Anderson was the manager, in October, 1895,
he changed this TO October 1886 and
finally got the date fixed To October 1865
His first loss was sis and be lost varying
sums until he quit the place at the time Of
raid year ago.
On cross.examination admitted that he had
been gambler since 1858, and he denied he
worked for Anderson, but said hs voluntarily
sold cigars and was a cue keeper at the Cleu-
ence street place shortly before the money
was lost The amount sued for Is slls, which
Webb claims belonged 20 his wife, and was
for five months ront. The defendants deny
the truth of Mr.. webb's statements, so far as
they relate TO their being responsible for his
loss.

HIS ARREST ILLEGAL.
Foreign Consul Cannot BE Tried BE:
fore Local Tribu >.

Washington, ID. G, Feb. ne New
York authorities who srre "a. and the
magistrate who committed Jcseph A.
Jssigi, the Turkish consul at Boston Last
Saturday night, have made a grave mis-
take and must undo their acts which are
unlawful. The Turkish minister here
has lodged with the state department a
protest against the proceedings aud while
the department is still looking mp author
tiles and studying preceuents it he's al
ready been practically concluded that the
arrest was illegal The constitution and
laws provide expressly thar a foreign
consul can be tried only by federal pro-
cess. The proceedings at Boston were
initiated before local courts, in fact. O
magistrates court, and the arrest at
New York was made by LEGAL Authorities
namely, the police. Therefore il is pro-
bable that the attention of the governor
of New York will be called TO this infrac-
tion of consular privilege and that Mr..
Iasigi will be released by the police.
There Is nothing, however, to prevent
his prosecution before the United States
courts and he may be promptly re-arrested
by the United States marsnsl upon his
release by the police.
