MURDERED HER CHILD.
Mrs. Minnie Adams Accused of an
Awful Crime.

San Francisco-Mrs. Minnie Adams
has been arrested at her fathers home
lit Parker avenue, on suspicion of
having murdered her two-year-old il
legitimate child, John Richard Gray,
by administering a dose of carbolic
acid. A quarrel with the father of
the child, which resulted in the sep
aration of the couple, added to the
fact that there were too many mouths
to be fed, is believed to be the motive
for the revolving crime. The father
of the child, Wilson Gray, is the ac-
cuser of the woman, and had he not
reported the matter. to the police, it
is probable the death would have
passed as an accident.
Until two months ago, Gray had
been living with Mrs. Adams and the
child was their son. He received a
note saying his boy was dead and with
an officer went to the Adams house,
where he found the body. Mrs. Adams
said the child had drank from bottle
of carbolic acid, which had contained
only about two teaspoonfuls. 1t was
discovered. however, that large
quantity of the deadly acid had been
spilled on the floor of an clubhouse and
this fact, coupled with other suspi-
cious circumstances and threats to
kill the boy, alleged to have been
made by Mrs. Adams, led to her ar
rest.

A company has been formed in San
Francisco to open up the great gravel
deposits near Columbia,s six miles from
Sonora, Tuolumne county. 1t is pro-
posed to drive tunnel from the STAN
islaus river to Shaw's Flat, and to
Springfield Flat. The tunnel will be
about one mile in length, and con-
structed so as to drain the gravel sink,
within which are comprised nearly
700 acres, reported by experts who
have made experimental borings to
be of immense value. 1t is stated
that the Rothschilds of London,
through their San Francisco agents
Capt. Miep andP H. LillienthaD were
desirous of securing the property, but
Jacob Fisher of San Francisco slipped
in between, made a higher offer and
secured the prize. Anew company is
to be organized. which will take up
the development work and carry 1t to-
completion. One million shares of
stock are to be issued, half OF which
will be retained by the original pro-
moters, and the other half to go to the
new company. Already several men,
bers of the old concern have an
nounced their intention OF taking
stock in the new company, thereby
holding a double edge on the propo-
sition.

COLORED PEOPLE EXCITED.
They Think the Eighth Volunteers
Were Badly Treated.

Cincinnati-The colored people of
Cincinnati have been indignant over
the treatment of the colored troops in
Nashville, when the Eighth regiment
(colored) United States volunteers
passed through that city after having
been mustered out. The colonel Of the
regiment is here and he asserts that
the attack on his men at Nashville
was entirely unprovoked; that the
soldiers were asleep in the cars and
the Nashville police entered the cars
without any provocation whatever
and with batons began beating the
men until they were unconscious. He
says the discharge papers and trans
portation papers of some Of the men
were taken away and torn to pieces.
A committee has been named to call
an indignation meeting, where it is
proposed to take steps to bring suit
against the city of Nashville for the
acts of her police.
