THE NEWTOWN SHOALS.
Engineers Price and Nourse to Make
an Examination of Them.

Commissioner of Public Works
Leake and his engineers long ago sat
isfied themselves, and nearly every
body else who had any interest in the
matter, that the Newtown Shoals in the
Sacramento River a short distance
from Rio Vista. are responsible in a
great measure for the present condl-
ton of the river, and that to remove
them will, by giving greater velocity
and consequently securing power to
the water in the stream, go far toward
deepening the channel and making the
river navigable for ocean steamers
such as tied up to the Sacramento
wharf forty years ago.
Engineers Prince and Nourse took
issue with the United States engineer
relative to the nature of the shoals,
and by actual observation proved that
the Government engineers Were wrong.
The latter advocated the theory that
the Newtown Shoals were movable
in other words, that during high water
in the rainy season the sand and grav-
Ell forming the shoals was dredged out
and carried down into Suisun Bay,
and that when the floods subsidized
other sand and gravel settled down,
and when low water came an entirely
new shoal was formed to impede navi-
cation.
The Public Works engineers made
various and systematic soundings on
the shoals several times last winter
and found that their position, did not
vary six inches from low water.
The principal question for the Pub
lie Works Department, since the i'm
movability of the shoals has been es-
tablshed, is to discover their compost
ton so as to intelligently take steps
for their removal For this purpose
augers and machinery were some time
ago ordered from the East and will be
on hand to-day.
Engineers NJ. A. Nourse and G. N
Randall will take the machinery down
the river on Monday, and propose to
stop in Rio Vista until they shall have
become familiar with the nature and
composition of the shoals. The series
of borings the engineers propose to
make will be definitely located from
base lines on the shore and the result
will be accurately traced on the river
map. Holes will be sunk to a depth OF
twenty-five feet at regular distances
in all parts Of the shoals, and samples
of the material found will be placed on
exhibition, so that all interested may
know the nature of the impeachment
with which the friends of navigation
have to contend
The record-union. [volume] (Sacramento, Calif.) 1891-1903, 1897-06-04

other vegetables. He sought further to
sessed at nearly $40 per acre, while
other lands similarly situated and OF the
same level, but unreclaimed, had been
assessed for only 81 per acre. He
further attempted to prove that portions
Of his lands, used for roads, and por-
tons used for bitches had been assessed
for about $50 per acre, while the lands
of other owners within the district sub
jected to like uses had been entirely re-
Heved from assessment.
ITO all of appellants efforts in TINS
direction, objection was interposed and
sustained by the court. The theory
upon which the case was tried is suffi-
GENTLY indicated by the objections OF
counsel at an early stage of the trial.
We might as well cut this short here as
anywhere else. The object of this is
apparent 1t is to rmpeach the assess
ments made by the Commissioners, and
your honor knows it has been held re-
peatedly it cannot be done And again:
The object of this is unquestionably to
impeach the assessment. Here is the
most extreme case that has ever been
decided in the State of California, and it
is the last, 1 think, on that proposition,
and is to this effect, the case of the Peo-
pie VS.. Hagar, &c Cal, p. 80. 1t has
been held from that time up to the pres
ent time that parties are not permitted
to show anything in the world that
tends to impeach the Judgment OF the
Commissioners in the assessment.
This view receives some countenance
it is true, from the case to which counsel
directed the courts attention, but in the
case of Reclamation District VS.. Phil
lips, 103 Cal, BOG, the question was
deliberately considered, the authorities
extensively reviewed, and the conclu-
sion expressed, with which the whole
court was in accord, that a property
owner was within his undoubted right
in making any legal proof to show an
unfair and illegal assessment whereby
his lands were not benefited to the
amount of the lien sought to be fixed
upon them.
For this reason the judgment and
order are reversed, and the case re-
manded.
The decision was written by Justice
Henshaw, and concurred in by justices
Mcfarland and Temple.

HUMANE SOCIETY.
Review of Its Operations During the
Month of Nav.

The Sacramento County Humane So
ciety's Directory met last evening at
the office of Secretary Schadt, President
George H. Smith presiding. There were
present Directors Smith, Flint, H.
Miller, Healy and I. Schadt.
The official reports for the month of
May showed that eighteen cases of
cruelty to animals had been reported
and satisfactorily attended to. Six dis
abled horses were killed by officers of
the society, and thirty-three dogs were
killed at the public pound.
One case that stirred the directors
considerably was that of a stage driver
whose horse fell on the street, where
upon the driver numerically beat the
fallen animal, kicking it about the head
brutally. The man was arrested in the
act by an officer, tried and fined 50. The
directors thought the punishment too
light to act as a deterrent influence.
r. L. Herringer was elected member.
The board dispatched routine bust
ness, discussed the work of the future,
and expressed qualification that all the
evidences are that the influence of the
society is powerful to protect dumb ami
amls that cannot protect themselves.

HE Will NOT HANG TO-DAY.
Murderer WOrden Secures a New Lease
of Life.
And II Looks as if the Same Will
Happen in Durrant's
Case.

Salter D. Worden will not be hanged
to-day at Folsom Prison-nor anywhere
else-for the murder of railroad engi-
neer Sam Clark and the four soldiers
who went down to their death on the
memorable 18th of July, 1894, in the
Y olo bog by the wrecking of a railroad
train
Worden obtains his new lease of life
through an order from Attorney Cen
eral Fitzgerald, as the result of the
condemned mans refusal of a writ of
habeas corpus yesterday by the Federal
Circuit Court in San Francisco.
On this refusal his counsel has filed
an appeal to the United States Supreme
Court, which appeal was permitted.
Every preparation had been made for
Worden's execution at 10 o'clock this
morning, but the Attorney-G General yes
terday afternoon telegraphed to War
den Aull to proceed no further, and
stating that he would mail him his
opinion in full, which would reach him
to-day.
After informing the Record Union
of the instructions received from the
Attorney General, Warden Aull last
evening said:
This order I must obey, as a State
official, for the Attorney General is the
| legal adviser of all State officers. If a
human life We're not involved it might
do no harm to test the constitutionality
of the law under which Worden has
| been permitted to carry his case to the
United States Supreme Court, but I'M
| der the circumstances it cannot be
done.
THAT law has been an obsolete one
| for many years, but it seems to fit the
present case. It was passed by Con-
gress during the stormy days of recon-
struction in the Southern States, when
it was so often desired to negative the
action of the State courts. AS soon as
| Worden's attorney explained to me the
other day the ground on which he
hoped to stay the execution of his client
1 was satisfied he had strong foothold.
81 have notified Worden that he will
not be hanged tomorrow, AMI it made
him happy, for he had fully expected
/ to march to the scaffold. The galloWs
has been taken down again and packed
away.
This turn of affairs will give Worden
at least several mouths longer lease
of life for the United States Supreme
| Court will not meet again until October.
| Then, after it takes action, his case
will, if the Judgment against him is up
held, have to go back to the local court
| for re-sentence.
| ST have no doubt" concluded Warden
Aull that similar action will be taken
in the Durrant case"
