A Former Postoffice Official Under

Inspector Monro to-day swore to COM

having stolen 81 800 of the postal funds
while Assistant Postmaster at Newton

Lowe absconded on November 2Sth

the stolen money in riotous living. He
then came to California, and a few days

his crime TO an officer at Mountain
View, near San Jose. He was arrested
and taken &c the County Jail at San

In the Event of War.

The war spirit seems to have taken
a firm hold on the members of the local.

to arms this morning Sacramento's cit
izen soldiers would be ready to start
before night.
There was a large attendance at the
inspection last night at Armory Hall,
and there was a snap to things that
had not been observed since the stirring
days of the railroad strike. Colonel
Guthrie was in command. and he made
a very thorough inspection of the troops
and their accoutrements.
Companies E and G of the infantry,
Troop B Of cavalry and the Signal
Corps were all on deck, and there were
very few holes in the ranks. Captain
Lucy was in command of Company E.
Lieutenant Zittinger of Company G'
Captain Cooke of Troop B, and Lieuten-
ant Martin of the Signal Corps.
The men were all in heavy march
ing order ready for field service. The
cavalrymen had no horses, but their
saddles were there and everything
needful for business was strapped 10
them The men all presented very
soldierly appearance, except IN regard
to their uniforms, which are in anything
but good condition. They Will have
new ones in a few days, however. All
the rest of their accoutrenents were
in good order.
Colonel Guthrie and Lieutenant
Plant interviewed the men on the sub
ject of responding to a call for troops,
and every one declared his readiness TO
go to the front.
Next Sunday Troop B will have a
field day. At S o'clock the men will
leave the Armory mounted and pre-

JOINT TRAFFIC CASE.
Hearing Begun Before the United
States Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.-The Su-
preme Court to-day began the hearing
in the joint traffic case, in which the
United States seeks to have the agree
ment on the part of the thirty-one
leading roads of the country, constitut-
ing the Traffic Association as formed in
1895, declared null and void, and to
have the association enjoined from
operating under this agreement.
The case has proved to be the means
of collecting the most formidable array
of counsel on the side of the defense
that has been seen in the court room
for many day. The list included ex-
Senator George F. Edmunds of Yer
mont, Minister to England E j.
Phelps and Hon. James Carter of New
York, each of whom, it was announced,
would speak. Solicitor-General Rich
ards appeared for the Government.
The time for the presentation of the
case was extended, SO as to give the
counsel for the railroad four hours,
making six hours for the entire hearing.
Mr. Richards opened. He depended
largely upon the decision of the Su-
preme Court in the Trans Missouri
Freight Association case as to the pre-
cedent in this case, arguing that there
was practically no difference between
the agreement in that case ard the
agreement of the roads which are par
ties to the Joint Traffic Association.
Mr.. Richards was followed by Mr..
Garter for the Traffic Association. He
contended that instead of being a re-
straint of trade, the Joint Traffic Asso-
citation agreement was actually intended
to promote trade and commerce.
In conclusion. Mr.. Carter said if such
agreement as that of the Traffic Associa-
ton could not be enforced. one of three
things must happen. Either all railroad
transportation must be abandoned, all
the roads must be consolidated, or all
competing roads must be found daily
violating criminal law. The first two
alternatives We're not likely to occur,
and inevitably the third must.
In other Words said Justice Brewer,
interrupting, the railroads are to be
expected to disobey the law unless they
are allowed TO give a bond 10 one an
other TO obe.' it?''
In reply to this observation, Mr.. Car
ter said: 1T is possible TO put such
obligations on men that it is not possible
for human nature to observe them"
Mr. Carter spoke for two and half
hours, holding the courts attention un-
til the hour of adjournment.

The Harry Corson Clarke company
had a good house at the Metropolitan
Theater last night. The play was the
farce comedy, What Happened to
Jones'" The company is admirable
support to Mr.. Clark, who is a comedian
of ability. keen perception, natural
adaptability and native humor. He
does not overdo; the character may be
ever SO extravagant and ridiculous, yet
Mr.. Clarke gives it a seeming of nat
uralness by an art quite his own ana
identified with his personality The
play itself is a laugh-maler from the
opening to the close. 1t has no thin
places, no tedious lines. nor is its story
too much drawn out. Twice the climax
is apparently reached, and the audience
expects with reason that the curtain
is about to fall. In each case, however.
a new phase of the complications sud
denly develops, and the crisp, rafting
story assumes a new interest. 1t is OF
the better order of farce comedy COM
position. and with the exception of two
characters its dependence is not placed
upon groteSque or absurd costuning or
ridiculous makeup. In at least one
of these cases it is excused by the men,
tai unbalanee of the character. 1t is
very seldom that an audience is as
much provoked to hearty enjoyable
and even uproarioIs laughter as was
that of last night, and it was natural
and relishabie. too, because the play is
Of coherent plot and clusters about
deception Of the daredevil order that
despite its improbability, is SO rich in
fine humor and clever in action as to
cover the absurdity of the story with
an excusing cloak of charity A better
balanced company in low comedy is not
often gathered. There is no useless
timber in it, or ineffective impersona-
ton.

HE WOULDN'T TAKE A SHARE.
Mr.. Cridge Declined to Profit by
His EelloWman's Misfortune.

The Utah Northern train was disap-
pearing in the distance when Arch
Cridge, the storekeeper at Market Lake,
who had gone over to the station to
ascertain if any oysters had come up
from Granger for him, saw a badly bat
tered and tattered figure hobbling along
the ties, coming from the direction of
the vanishing train. Cridge forgot his
oysters in wonderment at the outland-
ish raggedness and general damage and
disaster revealed in the person of the
oncomer.
He was a tramp and his face was
scratched and his eye was BACKED as
Cridge saw when he drew near But
he was polite tramp, nevertheless.
Good morning, my friend he said,
bowing courteously to the storekeeper.
Can you tell me the name of a man
who would care to share in the benefits

gold mines, gave him some attention.
