SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 21.-The

the crew in irons and the police flag
flying in the main rigging.
The officers and men have been at

that as soon as they are paid off they
will have Captain Clapp and Mate

done so had he not placed the ring

mix-up ensued, and Sam Peoples, Jas.

irons. They will be turned over to the

CRACKER COMBINE.
The Pacific Coast Biscuit Company
an Assured Fact.

SEATTLE, Sept. p. = The promoters
of the Pacific Coast Biscuit Company
have paid 100000 in cash as the first
payment on the purchase of seven of
the principal cracker and candy facto-
ries on the Pacific coast.
This is the consummation of the
cracker combination which was formed
last spring by Eastern investors, head
ed by c. w. Warner of Syracuse, N. Y,
and which became abortive owing to
the failure of the purchasers to supply
the cash demands as they fell due.
Since the former deal failed the pro-
moters of the Pacific Coast Biscuit
Company have been working diligently
to effect a consolidation of cracker in
terests on the coast, and have now ap-
parently succeeded.
The new company starts in business
with a capital of $4,000,00 The fac
tories purchased are as follows: South
ern California Cracker Company of Los
Angeles, Portland Cracker Company Of
Portland and Seattle, Washington
Cracker Company of Spokane, Oregon
Cracker Company of Portland, Seattle
Cracker and Candy Company of Seat
tie, and the American Biscuit Company
of San Francisco.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 21.-The fight

reached the stage where the Govern
ment must decide.
public hearing has been called at
the Town Hall at San Pedro next Mon
day, at which time Captain /. j. Meyler,
United States Engineering Corps, SUI
peryising the San Pedro Harbor work
for the Government, will be prepared
TO hear any grounds of objection which
may exist to the granting Of franch- h-sss
for ferry landings in the inner harbor
of San Pedro. ~-Captain Meyler in dis
cusSing the matter said:
There are two things that the De-
partment has to consider in granting
a permit The first is the feasibility
OF allowing the request without in any
way harming the harbor and the sec
ond is whether the public wish the fer
ry established. The first is a matter
| that has to be settled by skilled engi-
neers, and in deciding that the public
has no share. The second question, OF
course, depends on getting the consen-
sus of public opinion"

the Grand Judy here to-day for the
murder of Charles Salesman, a young
man with whom she had been keeping
company.
Miss Herbolsheimer claimed that
Salesman had asked her to marry. but
that she declined to do SO. She says

ters, of which she believed him TO be

that of her relatives were threatened

about the we'll at her fathers home
and from circumstances she claimed to
know, concluded that Salesman had
left it there.
With a carriage and horse she drove
to Hollowayville, where Salesman was
at work, and asked him to take a ride

shot was fired. Both had revolvers.

CHARLES SUES SER.
The Brother of the Murderer of
Farley Placed Under Arrest.

SALINAS, Sept. 21.-Charles Suesser,
a brother Of George Suesser, the muir
derer of Sheriff Farley, was arrested
this afternoon for threatening the life
of James Delaney.
Delaney was the man beaten by the
younger Suesser, who was shot at four
times with a Winchester rife by the
Suesser boy, whose hay barn was burn
ed by him, and the direct cause of Far
ley's murder.
Charles was captured in Blanco, a
small town west of this city, on the
Vuerra ranch, by Deputy Sheriff
Church. He made no resistance. The
mother and sister accompanied him to
court and pleaded for his release. The
accused is held under 81, 900 bonds.
This man has been implicated in
many crimes fro which young Suesser
has figured in court, and it is asserted
by those who profess to know that ne
has threatened that if his brother was
lynched he would revenge the deed
many fold.
Fred Suesser, the youngest son, is
watched closely. He has been warned
to keep on his parents premises, and
not to go out after dark, or he would be
dealt with summarily.
The situation, although Quieted, is by
no means safe for the murderer to be
brought home.

reavement at the loss of such a gallant
officer and worthy citizen.
Never before has this city seen such
large funeral. Extra trains were
run from the south and Monterey to
accommodate friends of the deceased,
while from far and near country peo-
pie left their threshing and other farm
ing duties and came down many miles
to town in order to pay their respects
to the dead hero.
NO church was large enough to hold
the crowd, SO religious services were
held in the Armory Hall. All public
houses, stores and saloons were closed
, IN the forenoon, while every available
flag was hoisted at half mast. The
city was indeed in a gloom.
Funeral services were conducted un-
der the auspices of the Odd Fellows
OF this city and Gonzales, while Native
Sons acted as an escort. Public schools
were closed, and the children partici-
pated in the funeral procession.

man, is lying dead at the Morgue, and
Warren Main, bartender, is at the

Main is a night barkeeper at the sa-

when he came on duty. Neither were
sober and their trouble of last even

of many uncomplimentary remarks,
Main drew a revolver, with which he
slapped the fireman on both cheeks.
Then, stepping back, he fired. The
bullet struck Kennedy in the chest just
under the collar-bone. He died on the
way to the Receiving Hospital.
Main was placed under arrest.
Kennedy was about 81 years old, and
as far as known had no relatives in

The Fugitive Outlaw Arrested in

Valley outlaw was rounded up to-day,
after having successfully eluded the
Sheriffs' officers from two counties for
almost a year The man who was
captured is William Sears, wanted for
completely in a swindle perpetrated up
on the officials of Merced County, and
the arrest was effected by Deputy
Sheriffs Wiley of Merced County and
Grubb and Redwine of Mendocino
County. g.
The charge upon which Sears and his
four alleged confederates are now un-
der arrest is of having procured squir-
rels scalps in Alameda County, where
no bounty is paid, and of having taken
the scalps into Merced County and
there collecting bounty for the scalps,
the amounts thus obtained from the
Merced officials aggregating $1,000.
The skill of the officers was taxed to
the utmost to locate Sears, who for
many months has avoided arrest, and
had led the detectives an exciting
chase through a rugged country. Sears
somehow managed to keep posted re-
garding the movements of the officers.
