DOCTOR MAKES
FALSE REPORT

NEWPORT, Or, March 1.-THE
preliminary trial of Mrs. Green,
charged with killing E. G. Sharratt at
Lutjens, resulted in her being COM
mitted to-day to await trial in July.
DR.. Thomas Parker of Toledo has
been arrested and charged with be-
ing an accessory after the fact. DR..
Parker conducted the autopsy at the
Coroner's inquest. Evidence intro
duced tended to show that for a
money consideration he had attempt
ed to cover the crime by reporting to
the Coroners jury that Sharratt came
to his death from abscess on the brain
and not from bullet wound. This
the jury refused to believe or be in
huenced by returning a verdict of
death from a bullet wound. When
the body was brought to Newport it
was examined by DR.. F. M. Carter,
who found that a bullet had been re-
moved from the spine. Parker was
admitted to bail in $500 bonds The
husband of Mrs. Green was held for
trial at his examination several days

Mrs. Testard invited the detectives to

nores Them to Take Orders
From Supervisors.
The unpleasant relations existing
between the Commissioners of Public
Works and City Engineer Woodward
eliminated yesterday when Mayor
Schmitz notified Commissioner Aigel-
finger that Woodward had COM
planned to him that he (Woodward)
was not being treated fairly by the
board named. Woodward feels ag-
grieved that Chief Deputy Donovan
of the bureau of streets has been
called into consultation with the
board at its meeting. He thinks the
City Engineer should act in the ca
pacity of adviser to the board.
Aigeltinger told Mayor Schmitz that
the Board of Works resented the fact
that Woodward preferred to take or
ders from the Board of Supervisors
instead of the Board of Works, which
had appointed him. A specific in
stance cited was that when Woodward
was asked by the Board of Works to
file an estimate of the cost of work
required to prepare plans for Mission
and Fourth streets Improvement.
Woodward submitted a brief state
ment showing that it would cost a
large sum, but he went into details
with the Supervisors Finance Com
mittee as to the number of draughts-
men and other employees required. The
Mayor advised the officials to try and
get along more amicably.

COLD IS FOUND
IN THE GUTTER
Great Excitement Follows
Strange Discovery of Citi-
zen of San Bernardino
Special Dispatch to The Call

SAN BERNARDINO, March H.
There was a strange scene at the cor
ner of Third and z streets in the heart
of Ehe business section of this city this
forsnoon when it became noised about
thatA some one had found gold in the
gutter. In short time there were
scores of men and number of women
squatting in the street along the gut
ter, digging in the gravel and mud with
toothpicks. pen knives, pencils and hat
pins, greediiy picking up the little yell
low particles. This continued until
late in the day.
Calvin Baker, a mill man who has
done much prospecting, was the first
to make the discovery. He was stand
ing on the curb when his trained eye
caught the CLINT of gold in the gutter.
He had picked up about So worth when
others were attracted by his actions.
The crowd grew rapidly and excitement
ran high. 1t is estimated that about
SIS worth of gold was picked up in the
course of a block.
It was learned that several carloads
of sand had been hauled from Lytle
Creek for the construction of three
large buildings on z street. Some of
this sand had been left in yards and
last nights rain, which amounted to
practically a cloudburst, washed the
sand into the gutter where it attracted
the attention of Baker. Lytle Creek
IS known to contain much placer gold,
but it is so scattered that mining was
not thought worth while. Still many
enthused by to-day's find are prepar-
ing to go out to the creek In the noun
tains, hopeful that the floods may have
barred great stores OF gold.

This protestant believes and alleges that

NO AGENT is NEEDED TO
COLLECT REBATE TAXES
Assessor Dodge Says Property Own
ers May Receive Return of Spe-
cial Levy Without Expense.

Assessor Dodge yesterday called at
tention to the fact that some persons
are constituting themselves agents for
the collection of rebate taxes on the
special levy for schools and hospitals.
The method is to get the tax bills
from property owners on the plea that
it is necessary to have an official agent
act in the matter. Dodge says all that
is necessary is for the taxpayer to pre-
sent his bills to the Auditor for veri-
f1cation and demand will be drawn
in his favor for the amount of taxes
paid under the special levy. The
Board of Supervisors will then ap-
prove the demand and there is not
one cent of expense entailed thereby.
In one instance property owner
figured that he was entitled to a re-
bate of $50, but the agent handed him
only $40, thus retaining half of the
claim for his fee.
Auditor Baehr was advised yester-
day by his attorney that there is no
merit in the point raised that the con-
stitutional amendment permitted Of
the return of only those special taxes
that have been protested. Any one
who paid such taxes, whether he pro-
tested or not, may get his money
back by applying at the Auditors Of
flee and presenting his receipted bills
for 1902-1903.
