GOVERNOR LIMBS VETO.

Coos ON Record ~ Opposed TO the Princi-
pie Of Paying Bounties.
ST. PAUL, FeG. Ex-Governor Lind
has transmitted message to the house
'vetoing H. F. 169, appropriating money
to pay sugar bounties. In his message
the governor says: ~.
'.By chapter 2O5, of the General Laws
II 1895, the legislature provided for the
1ayment of q bounty Of l cent per
pound to producers of sugar from beets,
sorghum or other sugar yielding canes
ar plants in this state. That act con-
tains no limitations whatsoever, either
.as to the time during which the bounty
shall be paid or as to the aggregate
amount that may be claimed by any
person or corporation.
''Without entering into any discus
,ion as to the wisdom of legislation of
that character, which in my judgment
cannot be justified on principle, it seems
plain to me that if the legislature of this
state is determined to use the taxing
power to take the property of one tax
PAYER and confer it to the private use of
another, the legislation by which this
grant is made should limit tho length of
time during which the bounty should
10 paid, as we'll as the maximum
amount to which the state could be-
come liable, or otherwise the state may
be looted before the people are aware Of
the obligations incurred.
l. Night Grew 70 an Enormous Sum.
"This unpleasant contingency has
arisen in many of our sister states
where the questionable practice Of boun.
tics has been sanctioned. The corpora
ton which will claim the appropriation
made by H. F. 100 appears to have
earned 1895, under the legislation of
1896. in the first year of it's business.
. 1T has been stated by its officers that
with sufficient quantity Of beets it can
increase the production over that Of last
year by at least $50 per cent, and per.
maps treble it, which would mean that
before your body meets again claim
for bounties might be incurred to this
corporation alone exceeding 100000.
''This convinces me, in view OF the
state of our finances and the burden III.
ready borne by our taxpayers, to say
nothing about the questionable charac.
Ter Of the bounty policy itself, that it is
imperative that the act Of 1895 should
sbe 90 amended as to plainly and spe.
.eifically limit the extent to which the
treasury of the state may become sub:
feet to claims Hereunder. To assume
to make appropriations pursuant to that
chapter in its present condition is,
therefore, in my judgment, unwise and
suIiiustifiable." aS $1t

MAY COME TO THE COAST.
Interstate Commerce Commission May
Adjourn to Take Testimony in
This Citv

The indications are that the meeting of
the Interstate Commerce Commission in
ST. Louis on the 18th inst. will be largely
attended. 1t is believed that the st. Louis
hearing will be only preliminary and that
the sessions will not extend over three or
four days. The reason for this is that the
interests of the coast are so large that
more time is needed for preparation than
has been afforded in the interval between
the filing of the suit by the ST. Louis
1obbers and the date set for the hearing.
It will also be asked, SO that the Pacific
Coast may have ample opportunity to get
in all the facts, that further testimony
shall be taken upon the coast, either by
a member of the commission delegated
for that duty or by the entire commission.
Charles +. Tay, who is going East upon
other business. will be one Of the wit
nesses for the coast at the st. Louis hear
ing. J. Baruch will go as witness from
Los Angeles and J. S. Goldsmith will tes-
tify concerning the effect that the pro-
posed graded rates and the dr. piping of
differentials would have upon the bust
ness interests of Seattle. Eben s. Pills
bury. President Wakefield Baker and
Traffic Manager H. D. Loveland will rep
resent the Pacific Coast Jobbers and
Manufacturers Association. W. A. Bis
sell will go on to represent the interests
Of the Santa Fe system. All the Middle
West cities will be represented by attor-
neys and witnesses.

Indian Lucy in Court.

For the first time since the argument
opened Indian Lucy" who is seeking to
establish her claim as the wife of Capt
talist John r. Hite, was in court yester-
day morning and listened attentively to
the closing analysis of the case by Attor-
ney Charles F. Hanlon. Mr.. Hanlon 9
argument followed the lines of a recapitu-
lation of the testimony, dwelling on the
alleged statement made by Hite in a
Marlposa saloon 70 the effect that he
would rather have his wife Lucy than
any white girl on earth. Hanlon also laid
special stress on the allegation that Hite
made his fortune from a mine which was
shown him by Indian Lucy and her sis
people to keep the location of the mine a
secret At the close of the argument
Judge Jones will take the case under ad-
viSement.

CURBING A MoNsTRoUs EVIL
Alfred P Blacks Ability and Up
rightness Deserves Recognition
by All Good People.

San Francisco has long been cursed by
ghouls in human form, who, preying on
the fear of inexperienced women, have
placed them in deadly peril by their
wicked acts Some of these malefactors
were women, and among the number was
Mrs Dora Fuhrig, who was finally ar.
rested on a charge of murder The prose
cution of this woman under the law was
assigned to Alfred p. Black. then as now
the force of mawkish sympathy and false
sentiment Mr.. Black contended success
fully and secured a conviction of Mrs.
Fuhrlg, in consequence of which she was
sentenced to the State prison for a term
Of years. She has taken an appeal. but
the excellent work of Mr.. Black has AL
ready borne fruit in the curbing of an
evil that hitherto was rampant in this
community. Mr.. Black is the Republfcan n
nominee for District Attorney. He de-
serves and ought TO receive the hearty
support of all good citizens. He has ex
perience, ability and integrity.

STEAMER MAULE HAS NOW
BEEN GIVEN UP AS LOST

n HIPPING men have great fears
for the safety of the little Saliva
dorean steamer Maule, which left
here on September 80 for Ell Tri-
unto, via San Diego. Nothing has
been heard Of her since she passed
through the Golden Gate, In command
Of Captain Medena, and her owner has
telegraphed from San Salvador to the
agent here to know what has become
Of her. The Maule has not been to San
Diego, and the ocean seems to have
swallowed her up, leaving not trace
behind,
For time 1t was thought the vessel
might have encountered the log raft,
but the big derelict was safe at Port
Hartford when the Maule left San
Francisco. There has been no heavy
weather on the southern coast, so the
disappearance of the steamer is a mys-
terry. She came here from Acajutla,
via San Diego, making the run in four
teen days. FL Triunfo is only about
300 miles further south than Acajutla,
and the Maule is now out thirty-four
days.
The Maule's cargo was valued at
S6755 and was composed Of 1850 barrels
of -four; 100 cases OF dynamite; 7O4
cases Of coal Oil; 10 packages of paint
and l package Of arms and ammuni-
ton. She is owned by M. Meardi of Sa
L. F. Lastreto of this city to know If

OFFICER DANIEL FoaARTY

with a maze of curved tracks leading
from the interior to the center Of
the street. Feurst, to avoid driving
over them, swung his team to the west
side of the avenue, in defiance Of regu-
lations.
Fogarty, riding downtown, was hid
den behind wagon, and Feurst with
supreme Indifference crowded SOUTH
bound vehicles to the curb. Just be-
fore he reached the van Fogarty turned
out from his shelter and shouted 20
Feurst to get on the right side of the
street. The driver, with few remarks,
went straight on. Fogarty rode up and
grasped the bride of one of the horses.
AS Feurst did not pull up, the police
man was knocked from his bicycle and
the wheel of the heavy van crushed his
left foot.
In an instant he was hobbling after
the vehicle and calling on the driver
to stop. Feurst did so and Fugarty
made him drive back, pick up his
wrecked wheel and then drive 10 the
Harlem police court. Fogarty's face
was white when he arraigned his pris-
oner. Blood was oozing from his shoe
The magistrate told him to go to hos
pital and have his wounds dressed.
Fogarty said he would be glad to do so
as soon as Feurst's offense was Sc tiled
according to law. He waited grimly,
all his weight on his right foot, until
the case was disposed of, then he took a
car to the house of DR., Nesbitt, polics
surgeon.
With a certificate that he was tenn
porarily disabled, Fogarty reported to
his sergeant at six o'clock and then
went home, conscious that everything
had been done decently and in order
and that his foot panied him greatly.
