CLAIMS APPROVED.
Some Relief Bills that are Recom
mended for Passage.
Mr. Gutenberger's Moss-Covered, but
Equitable Demand for His
Long-Ix>st Tools.
The Senate Committee on Claims was
in session late last night, and took action
on quite a number of relief bills.
That appropriating ?5,000 for Cornelius
Lynch, for injuries sustained by him
■while in the sen-ice of the State Board of
Harbor Commissioners, had a narrow
escape from receiving an adverse report.
While the roll was being called there
were but four of the seven members pres
ent, and the motion to recommend its
passage would have failed; but just then
the three other members entered the
room, and the bill was further discussed.
Finally a motion to reduce the claim to
t2,.i00 was carried, and thus amended the
bill will this morning bo recommended
for passage.
Lj7ich had one of his knee-caps frac
tured by a falling pile, and was confined
to his bed lor six months, and will be a
cripple for life.
RIVEK KXOIXEKKS.
E. C. Grurisky, one of the members of
the Board of Examining "Engineers, ap
pointed two years ago to examine and re
port on the condition of the Sacramento
and San Joaquin rivers and their tribu
taries, appeared before the board to ask
for the passage of a bill appropriating the
sum of SSIS7 'is to reimburse the members
of tho board for moneys advanced by
them to pay their necessary expenses
while engaged in the performance of their
duties.
Senator Campbell of Solano advanced
the idea that the engineers should stand
their expenses themselves, and he refused
to recede from that proposition even after
Mr. Grunsky road that section of the law
creating the board, which expressly pro-
Tided that the members should receive
each 32,-KK) per year .salary and their neces
sary traveling expenses and the cost of
mans, etc.
Mr. (Jrunsky explained to the commit
tee that Controller Dunn refused'to pay
the salaries of the board until commanded
by the mandate of the Supreme Court to
do so; and when they submitted domunds
for their traveling expenses lie refused to
pay those also. They then concluded to
pay their own expenses, instead of insti
tuting another suit, and trust to the Legis
lature to allow the money.
The committee unanimously decided
(Mr. Campbell not voting; to recommend
the passage of the bill.
TnOSE LOST TOOLS.
The next bill taken up was one appro
printing Sl.'Uo to reimburse ex-Trustee
win. Gutenberger of this city for tools
lost by tin-State while ill use at the l-'ol-
Boni Prison. The title to this bill had :i
lumiliar sound to the ears of all the mem
bers of the committee who had served in
either branch of the Legislature during
the last decade, and when Chairman 11. a
cock read it they all pricked up their ears
—like old war-horses when the distant
toot of the bugler is heard on the Fourth
of July—and smiled. If they had met it
elsewhere than in the committee-room
they would probably have dotted their
Lats to such an old acquaintance.
This bill of Mr. (iutenberger's has be
come an integral part of tne political and
legislative history of the State. Refer
ences to it may be found in volume after
volume of the legislative journals. When
it first made its how before a Legislature
it went through the Senate, but was put
to sleep in the Assembly. Two years
afterward it met with the favor of the Last
named branch of tho Legislature, bi:t was
hypnotised, as it were, in the Senate.
It earn* op refreshed and smiling, how
ever, two years later, and this time both
the Senate ami Assembly became im
j rid with its merits (and staying pow
ers!, and in the last hours of the session it
bund itself among a batch of bills that
were honored with transmission to the
Governor's office.
As koo:i as the legislature adjourned
Governor Bartlett was taken sick :uu!
took a trip hence for hLs health. He
placed the Gutenberger bill in his over
coat pocket, with several others, doul it
less intending to peroso it at his leisure
while listening to tha prattle of the waves
that lave the shores of dear I~ike and vie
•with the siren songs of the backwoods
belles. Bat the Governor's health did
not return for many days, and when he
did lee >)eto return to the < 'fipital the
bill had remained so Ion;? in his pocket
that i! v. as too late to find a place in the
printed volume of statutes of that session
of the Legislature.
Encouraged by his partial success, how
ever, Mr. Gutenborger once more
launched his favorite bark on the legis
lative waters two years ago, and again it
gallantly rode the breakers that roll be
tween the north and south wings of the
Capitol, and put in the Executive harbor
under full sail and with its colors Hying
at the masthead. But there—where it
expected to find a haven of rest and a sur
cease from weary wanderings aiming
legislative shoals—it again came to griel.
Governor Waterman somehow over-
Looked it for a period of more than ten
days, which meant, in legislative lingo,
that "it wasn't in it" any further.
At the request of the new members on
the committee, and at the earnest solici
tation of the old ones, Mr. Gutenberjrer
last evening rehearsed his oft told tale,
which may be of interest to others than
legislators. It recites, in brief, the fact
that, when the original prison contractor
had given up his job in disgust, he
(Gotenberger) was lemployed by Gover
nor Irwin to do certain iron-work on the
colls, cornice and roof ot the prison
building. After completing his contract
lie was requested by the superintendent
of the work (a Mr. Saulsbury) to leave
his tools there for a while, as he wis&Bd
to use them.
Mr. Gutenberger complied with the<
request. One day a car on which Che
tools were loaded became unmanageable,
ami plunging down an incline, shot Into
the seething waters of the American
River—tools and all. And there the lat
ter lie to this day.
The committee last evening questioned
Mr. Gutenberger at some length regard
ing the nature and value of the lost im
plements, and again decided that the ex-
Trastee of the Capital City has a just
claim upon the state for recompense for
his loss, and decided to report the bill
back to the Senate with the recommenda
tion for its passage.
If it doesn't get through both houses
and the Governor's office pretty soon, it
will die of old age.
WHAT THEY DID.

Finally tho board, by authority of a
member who supplies the moans, offered
two premiums—«l6o and *1M —far the two
best plans for a drainage system for Sac
ramento. The plans are to be submitted
within a year, and a committee of engi
neers will in a few days draw up the
terms and prepare the data of information
for contestants. This offer, it is ,tici
pated, will excite much interest, as it is
intended to arouse attention to a subject
of vital importance to this city.

BECAME OBSTREPEROUS.
i A Witness in tho IVc.liani Case Goes
to .Jail.
"The witnesses in tho case of tho Peo
ple vs. Fre.iiani ■will appear in oonrtto
morrow morning ut 10 o'clock, without
farther notice," announced Superior
Judge Van Fleet yesterday, in comiuu-
Ing the murder case.
The witnesses began to file out—all ex
cept one, a doughty Italian named
Bianchini. Something was evidentlj
weighing on this Individual's mind, for
he Stood looking at the Judge tor several
minutes. Presently he spoke. He wanted
to know who was going to pay his ex
penses lor appearing In court.
■'K. h;•!•<• t'i-tnorro\v morning," was the
I Judge's only reply.
But Bianehini was not to be cut off in
(his manner. He had thoroughly forth
!i (1 himself with intoxicants, and was
j there for business. Again h bawled out
I thai he wanted his expenses paid, and,
] v.henjjho Judge deigned no reply, he be*
1 came excited and dot-hired that he would
j come to court no more unless paid for his
trouble.
Judge Van fleet looked up from his
writing quickly, and obsorveathe recal
citrant, wirness'defiant attitude.
"Bringthai man up tome, .Mr. Sheriff,"
ho said to Bailiff Fay.
Bianchini was hauled up before his
, honor.
"Xow sir," said the Judge, "you are
wanted as a witness in this case, and 1
■ direct you to-be here to-morrow morning
| at 1(1 o'clock without further notice. Now
leave the court rorrrn."
But Biancbia] did not leave. He had
iiiH learned yot who was going to pay his
c-;ii'!iscs nml again he demanded infor
mation on that point. The Judge tried to
persuade him to leave, but the witness
only continued to declare that he would
not appear in court again.
The Judge finally lost all patience, and
beckoning to the liailitf, said, "Mr. Sher
iff take t&B man down stairs and lock
him up."
As Hianchini was being hustled out of
;in room the Judge directed that a charge
of contempt of court be entered against
I the witness ; judgment to be pronounced
to-day.
Later in the afternoon some of IJian
chini's friends appeared before the Judge
and promised to take their friend home
and "sober him up" if the court would
release him. Judge Van Fleet granted
their request on their further promise to
have liianchini in court this morning.
OPPENHEIMS CASE.
Argument on a Motion to Dismiss is
l'ostponed.
M. Oppcnhehn was examined in the
Police Court yesterday on a charge of
threats against life preferred by .John
Long&baner, the father-in-law of the de
fendant. Oppcnheim's wife, who is at
present suing for a divorce, a Mra. Dono
van and several other witnesses testified
to the effect that Oppenheim had threat
ened the life of bis wife and her father,
because they would not agree to a separa
tioD between man and wife unless Oppen
heim paid a certain sum as alimony.
After the prosei-ution had closet! their
case, Hiram Johnson, attorney for the
defendant, moved for a dismissal on the
grounds that the complaint was sworn to
by Longabauer, who had beard none of
Oppeuheim'sthreats.but based his charges
on hearsay.
Argument on the question was post
poned until Thursday.

NOT THIS TIME.
Two Convicts Foiled in TUelr Attempt
to Escape.
Several nights ago one of the guards **
the Folsom State Prison heard a peculiar
noise in the corridor of what is called the
"wing" or new building. It sounded as
if some one was engaged in filing a metal
substance. He searched high and low,
but for the life of him could not locate
the sound, and finally gave it up.
On Sunday night the same sound
greeted his ears and again he exhausted
himself in searching for the cause.
Again he heard it Monday night, and this
time his search was more successful.
Moving quietly down the corridor he
discovered that the two convicts confined
in one of the cells had succeeded in rip-
ping the door tq their cell nearly in
twain.
The guard gave the alarm, and the
would-be escapes were soon securely
lodged in another place, where they could
do no further harm.
In their cell were found several drills
and a large iron bar. Their intention was
no doubt to force their way into the wing
and then escape. One of the convicts was
employed in ihe blacksmith-shop. Both
were on the sick list, and the guards say
"playing 'possum." It was an easy mat
ter for them to carry on their work with
out detection, ns the cell-doors were all
recently painted, and by filling in the
holes mane by the drill with putty and
fresh paint the work could escape the
most experienced eyes.

SERIOUS CHARGE.
A Folsom Justice Charged With Pick

John Kelly Tells a Startling Story—
A Warrant issued for "in*
Honor's" 'Arrest.
"Ho is a Justice .of the Peace up In
Folsom, and bQ*bbl&| me of $30—took
it out of my pocket.'"i '
This is a portion of the startling story
John Kelly, of Folsom, told to Deputy
District Attorney Buckley yesterday.
Kelly wnnted a warrant issued for the
arrest of Thomas Lovtjoy on a charge of
grand larceny, uA alter hearing the
story Mr. Buckley tr.o!: him over to Jus
tice Starr's court, where the warrant was
placed in the hands-off Deputy Constable
Alter, nnd that official left for Folsom Izn
medHtely. He WJII prSbably return

Tho story told by Kelly was somewhat
sensational:
lie :::iys t!rat Lovojoy is at prcsrat :i
Justice oi'tbo Peace, hftvlng been elected

jority. LovßJoy, be Miys. 'is wholly un

says lie knows him; and so do others—
and they know that Ivr is an ex-convict
etna a rafbrmed opivnij^fetid. lie was the
only candidate for Justice of thu Peace
lor Mississippi Township, and the people
could not help electing him.
ma tho particular complaint Kelly h«8
to make is that ho is bow 980 poorer by
reason erf his acquaintance with Lovejoy.

Kelly says ho was tir^l. :i-id, going to
liis room, in Folaom, took ort" his boots
and outer dothinc and l:.iJ down on his
bed for a nap. Ho had not been there
long, he snyw, when Lovo.joy came to the
room and naitl hu wanted U> borrow four
bits.
Kelly pointed to whore his pantaloons
h!.y upon a chair, and told the Justice he
would lind a four-bit piece in one of tho
pockets.
Loyejoy did r.s he wns dirceted, and
fumbling with Kelly's clothing for a few
minutes, exhibited fifty cents, thanked
Kelly tor it, and left.

Kellyaays ho inspected his pantaloons
sntne time after tho Justice had left, and
disepvexed that not only bad "hia Honor* 1

Kelly gave chase immediately.
He overhauled Lovejqy Inasaloon later
on, he said, mid accused liim of robbing
him. The Juntico was snrprised. Mr
not only denied that he had robbed Kelly,
but declared that he had never even been

alleged. Kelly says, however, that l>«
