Appropriations

road bills in which Loj Anodes is Inter
eiited wcr« reported from the Judiciary
Committee today in the Senate, tho Salt
l-ake bill with the recommendation that
it do puss and the Matliews bill without
recommendation. Senator Matliews urged
tho committee to take action in both
cases. He said he believed that the intro
duction of his bill to allow counties to
build railroads was what bud spurred the
Sau Franciscans to arrange for building
the San Joaquin Valley road. He was
liitufijd that it was a good, bill. Some of
the Senators raised the question of con
stitutionality, but finally the matter was
settled by agreeing to report It back with
out recommendation.
The Conference Committee has agrefjd
ot) the appropriation bill for the main
tenance of the insane asylum at High

Hint of which tic is chairman, because
he is Waiting for the Assembly bill to
come over to tiie Senate.
The Senator says the Coventor will ap
point the samo trustees for al 1 tho insti
tutions in the htate its vacancies occur if
the Seymour bill does not pass. There is,
however, very little foundation for that
idea, und it" is v ease of the wish being
father to the thought on tho Senator's
part.

Dollars Blown to Pieces.
Fire Follows

structive natural gas explosion in the his
tory of Indiana occurred at 4 o'clock this

tho central part of the city. In the build
ing were the When clothing store, Pruthcr's
shoe store, Hundley's drug store, business
offices und a hall on tho upper floor. Fire
followed the explosion, which was like an
earthquake, am) the remains of the debris
begun burning fiercely. The entire tire de
partment was called out and prevented the
fire leaching the new court house. At
torney liallurd and County Commissioner
Metetilf lived in the rooms above the When
store, and it is feared they perished. The

houses In the neighborhood of the explo
sion were demolished, paved streets ripped
open ami telephone cables torn down.
In addition to the demolition of the

little to work on save wreckage. The
contents of the stores are scattered every

bine from interfering with the business
of the Continental company. The at
torneys for the Continental company
stilted that they would show that a boy
cott had been organized nguinst the Conti
nental and other companies which have
not joined tho combine, and that such a
boycott was against the laws of this state.
Affidavits were produced from insurance
agents at different points on the coast to
show that the rules of the combine had
forced them to quit doing business with
the Continental.
They also introduced copies of circulars
WhiQQ were sent out on February Ist,
warning these agents that if they did not
give up their business for the Continental
and other companies of the combine,
they would lose the agencies of the union
companies. This, it was added, was noth
ing cisc than a boycott.

constitutional convention yesterday, made
a report to the convention this morning,

delegates from the Third Salt Lake Dis
trict who had not reoeived certificates
had been elected. The' report was sub
mitted without recommendation.
A. N. Home moved then to refer the
report buck to the committee with in
structions to uscertain the qualifications
of the members elect.
This motion brought on a lengthy de
bate, as Apostle John Henry Smith, who
was still out of the convention, was a
strong favorite of the Republican major
ity for president of the convention, and
an effort was made to keep the question
buck until the permanent organization
was made.
The motion was carried, 61 to 87.
Lost In the Breakers
San Diego, March s.—Henry King,
a carpenter, went in bathing at Ocean
Beach yesterday, since which he has not

LOS ANGELES HERALD: WEDNESDAY MARCH 6, 1895.
COUNTED OUT THOUSANDS
New Developments in the Big
Check Raising Scheme
MANY BANKS SUFFER LOSS
The Work Was Done With Ink
Killing Acid
The Union Pacific Treasurer Talks of the
Matter-Flawless Work Done
by the Forgers
Omaha, Neb., March s.—Startling dev
elopments have been brought to light in
the Union Pacific check raising swindle
today which are* calculuted to alarm all
corporations -paying in checks. The dis
covery was made that the gang which
operated on the Union Pacific system has
a method of erasing ink with on acid
which defies the best made paper, which
is guaranteed to show the slightest pres
ence of acid or other foreign substance.
The amount secured by the work of the
gang is not yet known, but it is not as
large as first supposed. The fact is not
regurded as of much importance, how
ever, as compared with the new process
which is puzzling the company's chemists
and detectives.
The paper on which the checks are
printed have been regarded, until now, as
being absolutely proof against manipula
tion, but the operations of tbe gang of
experts shattered all claims of the inven
tors of the paper thut their invention is
acid proof. The checks which were raised
faileji to show a single erasure murk and
the amount of the check in figures in the
right hand corner, as well as the written
amount in the body of tbe check were
wiped out as completely us if cloth had
been used in removing dust from v tabic
top. Not content with removing tho fig
ures, in one instance the name of the
employee wus removed and a new name
substituted, showing they had mastered
the secret completely.
Frank Brown, local treasurer o. the
Union Pacific 0 m any, stated thai lie
hud never seen check- so flawlessly
tittered us in the Denver case. They had
passed hrough his hands, >ut a powerful
gluss bad failed to show the least mani
te tation, and f lie bud not known the
checks were vised ho would have sworn
that they were . riginully as made. It*
wus his opinion thut no alt red checks
"ould turn up, on tho theory thut the
men hail b en able to c c nup qu te a
sum and w. v d leav for other fields to
prosecute their s lity.
What is to b done is the question vhich
is perplexing the minds of the official at'
the Union Pac tic headquarters toda .
I hey argue that the puncturing of the
amount of a check on its face, by a ma
chine invented for the purpose, an be
filled out with papier ma he, pai ted over
and a new puncture made for a niffer nt
amount; that chemically prepared papers
are of no avail with the di covery of acids
that will wi c out the mcst reliable ink
as casi y a> dirt may be displa ed with
v. ater.
Denver, Colo., March 5.— W. T. Canna,
chief of the Union Pacific Railway uetect
ives. is making investigation of the check
vising frauds along that line last month.
Mr. Canno says the parties who raised the
checks made only a few hundred dollars,
but he has no doubt that if their opera
tions had not been discovered they would
have renewed the attempt next month.
TWO BOTTLES OF WHISKY
A Shoemaker Near Bakerstield Drinks Them
and Dies
Bakersfield, Murch 5.—-A shoemaker
named Kleinfelter died at Kernville, a
hamlet in the mountains some sixty miles
east of this place, and the fact has just
been learned that his death resulted from
drinking two bottles of whisky in rapid
succession. He had been on a spree and
was ; n a stupor, wdien one of the loungers
proposed to nave some fun with the drunk
en man. They bought a bottle of whisky
and pouring out a glassful ut a time, gave
it to Kleinfelter, who drank it eagerly.
When the first oottle was empty they
bought another, and this too was given to
Kleinfelter, the entire amount being swal
lowed in about half an hour. When it
was finished Kleinfelter staggered to a
chair, fell into it, und almost at once
dropped apparently into a deep slumber.
A snort time afterward an effort was made
to rouse him, but it was found that he
was dead. The Grand Jury will investi
gate the matter antl see if someone can
not be punished for the affair.
THE LICK ESTATE
Board of Trustees Will Ask the Probate
Court for. a Release
San Francisco, March s.—Within a few
weeks the board of trustees who have
managed the Lick estate since the de
cease of the pioneer will aak the Superior
Court to approve their accounts and dis
charge them from further duty. The
board has handled millions of dollars left
by the pioneer, and now that all bequests
have been settled they wish to be ab
solved from further duty. James Lick
left almost all his money for educational
Eurposes, the Lick Observatory nnd the
,ick School of Mechanical Arts being the
two most important bequests.
When James Lick's son was compro
mised with for 1535,000, in 1878, the trus
tees estimated that the estate would fail
to carry out all the legacies by 1500,000.
Accumulated interest and increase of
values during so many years has provided
money for every bequest ami left a surplus
of over $1,000,000.
THREATENING LETTERS
Mayor Sntro, of Lan Francisco, Is Receiving
Letters From Cranks.
San Francisco, March s.—Mayor Sutro
is receiving numerous threatening letters
from cranks whose advioe about political
affairs he refuses to follow, ana from dis
appointed politicians who have not at
tained coveted offices. The threatening
letters, which have all been turned over
to the police, resemble the threatening
epistles sent to Carter Harrison, who wus
killed by Prcndergast while Mayor of Chi
cago. Sir. Sutro says he is not alarmed,
hut it is noticed that he is taking extraor
dinary precautions to shield himself from
possible attacks by murderous cranks.
SOME 810 FIOURES
Governor Budd Tallying Up the Cost of the
Legislature
Sacramento, March s.—Governor Budd
has been figuring upon the expenses
which the present Legislature proposes to
foist on the state. He finds that the con
tingent expense hills already signed, the

passed by the Senat> exceed in the total
of expenditures provided $11,000,000.

tensively Comes to Grief
Fresno, March 5.—A band of cattle
thieves that has been operating for a year
past in Can tne canyon and the neighbor
ing country, has been broken up by Hi
Rapelji, the officer who shot John Sontag
near Visalia. During the year John As
hurst and three brothers have lost about
100 bead of cattle. Some of the cattle
and four hides were found in a slaughter
house in Fresno. Having learned that
thieves were residents of the Csntua can
yon, Rapelji left for that place with four
Mendota officers. He started up the con
yon at night, and stopping at different
houses along the route, the officers aroused
and arrested the men whom they found.
By 2 o clock in the morning twelve thieves
had been captured. The leader of the
gang will soon be captured.
