FOOT BADLY CRUSHED.
Result of Neil Gallagher's Riding a
Brakebeam.

Neil Gallagher lies at the Receiving
Hospital with badly crushed and lac
Grated foot, and will be sent to the
County Hospital this morning. His
foot was run over by a car.
Young Gallagher recently went from
here to San Francisco to enlist, but
failed to pass the medical examination.
He was short of money, and in order
to get back to Sacramento he resolved
to take advantage of the cheap :team-
boat fare to Stockton and then make
the rest of the journey by beating his
way on railroad trains.
Last evening he got on one of the
trucks of a passenger coach and
reached Sacramento all right, but fear
ing arrest if caught at the trick, and
never having done anything else to
warrant being arrested, he attempted
to get off his perch before the train
reached the depot.
In doing so his foot was caught by
one of the wheels and most Of the f1eshy
portion of it was torn off. He was
attended by City Physician Nichols and
Assistant Physician Ogden. The wound
is a very ugly one, and it is feared that
amputation of the foot may become
necessary. Gallagher has an uncle liv,
ing at Grass Valley.

ROAST FOR KRIPP.
A Santa Cruz Paper Touches Up
the Baseball Man.

The Santa Cruz Surf thus pays its
compliments to Manager Kripp of the
Sacramento ball team:
''At the present outlook it is almost a
2-to-1 shot that the Sand Grabs will
have to play at Sacramento Saturday
and Sunday despite the fact that Plum
ger Kripp had previously agreed to come
here When Santa Cruz went to Sac
ramento last month and played the
two games scheduled for this city 1t
was done so with the understanding
that the Sacramentos would be brought
here in July.
But Kripp has failed to make good
his promise, and now demands that
Santa Cruz must come to Sacramento.
Kripp's action in this matter is small
peanuts, and the league officials should
call him down.
Santa Cruz is now drawing the
largest crowds at any of the league
towns outside of San Francisco and
does not deserve to be goldb bricked out
of two games. Besides it is a gross
injustice to the holders of season
books"

LOOKING UP.
Washingtonians Evidently Believe
in Progress.

The town of Washington, on the
other side of the river, seems to have
taken on a new lease of life. For
many years it suffered from floods ana
received many setbacks, but all that
has passed and the little town looks
more inviting than ever.
The Fire Commissioners have now
three hydrants connected with the new
water system, and are preparing to
put in twenty-five more. When this
is done Washington will have better
fire protection than any place of it's size
in the Interior
The town pump, working With 40,
pounds pressure, is able force
streams from the hydrants over the
highest buildings, and with plenty of
fire plugs it looks as if the town will
be quite safe from serious damage by
fire.
Several modern sprinkling wagons
have been ordered from the East, and
not only are the streets to be well

goes to the breakfast table without an ap-
petite, bolts what little he does eat and
rushes away 10 business. He is drowsy
and nervous by turns all dav and forces
himself to work against his will. He takes
five minutes for lunch and not minute to
rest afterward. He goes home at night
utterly tagged out and with no appetite for
supper. The idea of taking medicine or
even taking little rest never enters his

be over S25 out OF the way; that when
he was not certain he took the larger
amount; that he kept the fees. with
the exception OF what he paid Mr.
Gillian.
Mr.. Palm denied that he paid any
money to Auditor Cornell, even for
campaign expenses; that he presumed
that whatever he wrote to Auditor
Cornell was correct at che time.
Then the Hartford letter was flashed
on Mr.. Palm, a letter In which he said
the examination in that case would be
made large enough so hat Auditor
Cornell "would be remembered"
Mr.. Palm said he had thought Of
making a present to Mr.. Cornell, but
he had not done so and the auditor
had never asked him for money.
The committee asked Mr.. Palm IL
he had not testified before the govern
or's committee that he had never
written the auditor any other peculiar
letter except the so-called hold up
letter. lie said he had not. What he
did say was hat this was one Of the
unfortunate ones hat had fallen into
Mr.. Lichty's hands.
In regard TO instructions Mr.. Palm
said the auditor had told him to be
moderate and to charge not more than
$40 a day and expenses for examining
within the state. lie thought his time
was worth more. He said outside the
state he had charged 500 a week and
expenses. In New York he and Mr..
Gillian had charged $40 a day for the
expenses Of both together. The ex-
penses depended on the amount Of
travelling done.
lie was asked II he ever offered a
present to 4 member OF the present
legislature. After studying over this
matter Mr.. Pain said he did remem-
Der That there was a bill before the
legislature and that insurance agents
were Interested in having IL passed.
A friend of his in Omaha told him to
tell Representative Weaver that II he
would look after the measure 500
would be paid him II he was put 20
any extra labor. Mr.. Palm eaid his
friend was ready 10 pay the money.
He also said that Mr.. Weaver said he
would not take 1t; that II n check were
sent he would send IL back.
This ended this branch of the In
vestigation. T.. Weaver, who was pres
eut during the testimony, explained
privately that the bill In which insur-
ance agents were interested was
house roll No. 1877. It's purpose being
n laudable one In his opinion, being
the prevention of overhead insur'

He was then peremptorily ordered
by Chairman Prout to produce the
letter at the next sitting, after which
the committee adjourned until 1880.
At the evening session Mr.. Palm

that gentleman mixed politics and
business. II is too lengthy for apper-
ance here. The letter showed that
Mr.. Lichty was DESTROYS OF forcing all
insurance companies an examination,
and he warned Mr.. Palm not to forget
that MoatpeAer company that had
written so insultinly last spring.
After the letter had been read Mr..
Fisher took Mr.. Palm in hand and
extracted some interesting testimony
in regard to the kind OF a time Mr..
Palm experienced during his two
weeks stay in New York City. The
witness was questioned closely about
theater tickets and cab hire. lie fin
ally admitted that nc had n "hot
time" He denied. however, that An
ditor Cornell joined him In oil things
because Auditor Cornell's IDEAS OF q
good time were notin accord with his
own. The committee wanted 10 know
whether the insurance companies paid
the expenses Of the "hot time" In
asking questions Mr.. Fisher displayed
considerable expert knowledge about
good times" and the witness had diff
flculty in answering.
Mr.. Palm said the auditor felt salts
fed to take the examination OF other
| states in certain cases when the ex-
aminations were thought TO be re-
liable.
Mr.. Bryant examined Mr.. Palm and
asked IL he remembered the contents
Of the Lichty letters he had DESTROYED.
Mr.. Palm said he could not remember
He had saved one simply as a souve-
mir from Mr.. Lichty, as showing that
Mr.. Lichty had curiously mixed poll
tics with business. He wanted to
keep it. and in answer to n question
from Mr.. Prout, said he would con.
slider il n favor II the committee would
return this ore to him after making
such use of it as was deemed ncces'
sary.

LETTER FROM GEN. WHEELER
II the Americans Should Withdraw from
the Philippines There Would he
Anarchy In the Islands.

Washington, Dec. 4. Gen. Joe Wheel
er, in a personal letter received here,
dated at Angeles, Luzon, says:
"There are more than 20 different
tribes in this island and very few of
them would submit to Aguinaldo's
rule. Aguinaldo and his generals would
like to govern, because 1t would give
them great power, and many of his
soldiers like the war because for the
first time in their lives they have au-
thority to carry gun. They live by
taking what they want from the peo-
pie. Many of them are robbers who
rob defenseless people Of their money
and sometimes murder them. II we
should withdraw there would be war
fare and anarchy in the islands and
the well-to-do people would get some
strong government to come and take
control.
"Aguinaldo publishes paper, which
is filed with expressions from people
of the United States who are called
anti-imperialists. and / think were it
not for these expressions the insurrec-
ton would be closed"
