WITH N0N-UNl0N CREW
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald
SAN PEDRO, June 25.-The steamer
Nome City. which has been tied up
here at the Salt Lake wharf for the
past ten days for lack OF a crew to
man her, got away today with nom
union crew aboard. About a week ago
the captain and all Of the officers went
away and left the ship In charge Of a
watchman, and there has been no sign
Of life on her since until this morning
smoke was seen coming from her
stacks.
1t was found that the officers had re-
turned and It was at once realized that
an effort would be made to take her
out, and a number of sailors and long
shoremen soon gathered on the wharf
interviewed as to their intentions
they stated that they had no intention
to do any violence or to use force to
keep a crew from going on, but only
desired to talk to the men when they
came along and urge them to stay off.
Several men had been taken on board
without anyone knowing It, and about
IL o'clock several more went on board
and the vessel steamed out without
any demonstrations. This leaves no
vessels tied up by the strike in this
port and but few steam vessels in the
port.

ming a little store at the corner of
Eighth and Beacon streets, was over

walked into the house, saying that he
was very tired and had walked sixty
miles that day. He said he intended
to walk back to Minnesota, but

MAY LAST SEVERAL nays
Preliminary Hearing in Logan Murder
Case Likely to Become
Wearisome
Special to The Herald.

PASADENA, June 25.-At O'Clock
tomorrow morning will be resumed the
preliminary examination of Tailor j. c.
c. JaXon, the Pasadena negro charged
with the murder of James A Logan on
May Is. 1t is expected that a number
OF unexpected features will be added to
the mass of detail already brought out
and that the examination will last two
or three days.
One of the two women believed to
have purchased the putting iron used
by the murderer is confined to her
house by illness, making it impossible
to produce her in court at once, but the
authorities are confident that the iden-
tification when it comes will be COM
plete. They are also of the opinion that
JaXon will be held for trial on the evil
dence already submitted.
But this they say is not going to keep
them from piling up the evidence they
have collected in order to make sure.
If the prisoner can be held they feel
certain that by the time the trial comes
the indisputable proof will be on hand
to convict JaXon and possibly one other
who is thought to be confederate.

Special to The Herald.


PASADENA, June 25.-Sanitary In
spector Huddlestone and Health officer
Black have been making quiet inspec-
tion of the various meat markets of the
city during the past several days and it
is understood will present rather
startling report to the board of health
at its meeting on Friday evening of
this week. Meat has been purchased at
practically every one of the city mar
kets. They have confiscated about 13O
pounds of meat displayed for sale in
certain markets and said to be unfit for
sale.
The fact that most of the local dealers
are supplied by Los Angeles houses will
give the inspector opportunity to grill
some of the wholesalers as we'll and
he believes that he will be able to
unfold a serious tale.
The results Of the packing house in
quiries in the east caused Inspector
Huddlestone to make the present in
spection, believing that certain condi-
tions found In the east would surely be
duplicated here.

of the order there will be a grand ball

a storm Of protest from certain class

trustees win retail nthe gates In order
to make the auditorium a place from
which some revenue can be derived by

to devote to scenery. We rode on rapidly,
till Black River, deep stream, barred
our way. A strong swimmer, after
battling with the current for sometime,
succeeded in getting a line across. With
this he drew over a stOuter rope and
fastened it to the shore.

Everybody shook hands when we
reached the other side of the river. The
Indians, we were told, had not yet
renewed the attack on the fort, but were
expected at any time. General Carr had
sent us reinforcements because he thought
it might be their intention to ambuscade

arranged curiously under stones-Indian
post-offices, and the burned framework

were tied two charred bodies.
When we arrived at the fort we found
that the Indians had not appeared again.
They were trying, we learned, to persuade
other tribes to go on the war path. But

the Cibicus principally appealed, saw no
reason for putting on the war-paint just
