of the loss of their grape crop staring
them In the face on account of the

of this section are circulating a petition
which they will present to the South
ern Pacific and Santa Fe railroads ask
ing their cooperation in overcoming g
the difficulty. The petitioners will re-
quest the railroad companies to haul

back, and. as the wages are low. the
white laborers cannot be depended on
to do the work.

LADIES HELD UP.
Judge Sanders' Wife and Daughter
Have Opera Glasses Snatched.

Mrs. ID. l.. Sanders. WITS of Police
Judge ID. l.. Sanders, and daughter,
Miss Ella Sanders, were held up by
an unknown negro last night about
1880 o'clock at Ninth and Monroe
streets, Within hearing distance of
their apartments in the Sans Souci
fats on North Ninth street, and fine
pair of opera glasses snatched from
Miss Sanders.
This mother and daughter had been
to The Kentucky to witness the Royal
Chef production, and were returning
home. The negro had followed
thsm, but thinking it some spectator
at the show they paid no attention
OF him.
.Unobserved by the ladies, the negro
slipped up when dark spot was
reached and demanded money.
Miss Sanders carried her opera
glasses in a bag hung on her 1eft
arm. The negro thought It her purse
and snatching it ran away. but not
before Miss Sanders had struck him
in the face with her fist. The police
were notified but failed to secure a
clue by which the negro might b.
recognized.
The holdup created a great dea
of excitement IN that vicinity, The
ladies screamed for help and in {
few moments the entire neighbor-
hood wal aroused.

reputable than paying out policy
holders money to buy off scamps.-

sounds very well to talk that way.

treasury shortage will be much less
than II was year ago.
Receipts are much larger thaa
they were a year ago. This is true of
both customs and internal revenue.
For September. 1905, the receipts
for customs we're larger than ever
before in that month. The United
States is making heavy purchases of
foreign goods. Home producers are
busy, but they can not keep up with
the home demand. Therefore the for
eign producers are called on to make
up the deficiency. Some of the things
which we import are either things
that are not produced at home or the
home quality is inferior. or purchas-
ers imagine II is, which amounts TO
about the same. The treasury outlook
like the general financial situation,
is exceedingly bright.

ering the question of building a boa:

on the same plan have been built for

One of these boats is the Rumsey

---FHR VANISHING pEFIe4tT..

The governments receipts for Sep
TENDER exceeded its expenditures to
the extent of sS,94O,OOO, says the
Globe Democrat. For the three
months of the fiscal year expendi-
lures have gone $9,574,000 ahead of
receipts. July is always month of
heavy payments by the government
for interest on bonds and for the out
lay for the new fiscal year, which
begins with that month. 1t saw no
tably heavy expenditures this year.
The outgo in August also was heavy.
Then the turn of the tide came. Dc
tober, January and April, however,
will see big outlay.
For the first quarter of the pre-
viOus fiscal year the deficit was very
nearly twice as great as 1t is now,
Or about 100000. For the en-
tire fiscal year which ended ON June
80. 1905, the deficit was $4,000
600. On the basis of reduction which
has been made thus far this year the
deficit for the twelve months which
end with June, 1906. will be in the
neigh borhood OF s13,000,000. 1t
may be a little more than that fig
