Appointment of General Friedrichs as Attorney for Alaska Ex-
 pected Soon.

WASHINGTON June 27.-The appoint ment of General Friedrichs as United States Attorney for Alaska will be made in a day or two. When Friedrichs visit ed the President in company with Repre- sentative Curtis of Kansas he was given to understand the matter was in the hands of the Attorney General. It was learned at the Department of Justice to- day that Attorney General Griggs has ex- amined the papers in the case, and de- cided that the time of the incumbent has expired and there is now vacancy In the office.
 At last there is a fair prospect that John Clyde Sullivan, paymaster in the navy formerly stationed at Mare Island may be restored to his former rank. His bill for relief has passed the Senate and been favorably reported by the House Commit tee on Naval Affairs.

SHOOTS THE MEN
 WHO ROBBED HIM
China Ferry Citizen Pursues His Assailants and Wounds Two
 of Them.

STOCKTON, June 27.-A robbery and shooting affair occurred yesterday in Sac ramento County, just across the line from San Joaquin, in which two men were wounded. The man who handled the fire arm is Fred Allen, a saloon-keeper at China Ferry, a mile below Staten Island. Early yesterday morning he was set upon by three robbers-James Hennessy, Thom- as Sweeney and S. Flemming. Overpow- ering the saloon-keeper, they robbed him of his watch, but for some unknown rea- son did not succeed in getting his money, although he had $200 on his person at the time After the robbery the men fled.
 Allen then went to his saloon and, pro- curing his shotgun, gave chase On com- ing upon the trio he blazed away at them and two of the three were hit The rob- bers escaped for the time being, however but were subsequently taken into cus- tody. Sweeney and F'lemming were ar rested by the Sacramento Sheriff and Hennessy by Constable McCulloch of New Hope, this county.
 Fiemming was found to have been wounded in the head and in one of his legs, while Sweeney was struck in the hand by some of the shot. None of the wounds are serious. Hennessy was un- hurt
