SACRAMENTO DAILY RECORD-UNION. VOLUME 68. SACRAMENTO, TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 13, 1890. CALIFORNIA AND COAST. Judge George M.

Sabin's Death Yesterday at tie Bay. FATAL MISTAKE OF A HOTER. Salvation Army Officers Sent to Irrigation District (SMCIAL DISPATCHES TO THB JL'DGE SAHIN DEAD. His Career as a Soldier and a Jurist His Family History. San Francisco, May George M.

Sabin, who has been for the past eight years United States District Judge of Nevada, died at an early hour this morning at the Palace Hotel, of inflammatory rheumatism, after a long and severe illness. The remote ancestors of Judge Sabin are supposed to be French, but there is no authentic record going back so far. Family papers show that the American Sabins settled in this country in 1642. Massachusetts was the original home and there the family remained for many generations. The Judge's grandfather was a revolutionary soldier, while in the war of 1812 his father and two uncles took part.

The former was one of the minute men whose work is so well spoken of in history. From Massachusetts the family removed to Vermont, and from the latter State the Judge's father went to Ohio in 1820. The Judge was born there, and there he was educated he attended school, graduating in Western Reserve College, afterward studying for the law, to the practice of which he was admitted in Madison, in 1858. He practiced there until the war broke out, when he joined the First Wisconsin Infantry. It was in the command of General Patterson and formed part of the Army of the Potomac.

Judge Sabin served from the beginning to the close of the war. He was at Shiloh, at Corinth, and the siege of Vicksburg, and many other important engagements under General Grant and other commanders. He rose to the position of Lieutenant-Colonel without any other influence than his own bravery. After the war he spent a couple of years in the South. He then returned to Wisconsin, where he passed the summer of 1567.

In 1886 he went to Xevada. entered upon the practice of his profession in Pioche, Eureka and other mining towns. In IS7O he was a candidate for County Clerk at White Pine, but was defeated, as the county was strongly Democratic. In 1871 he went to Pioche and there formed a partnership with W. W.

Bishop. He practiced law there until he was appoined by the President, July. 1882, District Judge Nevada, succeeding Judge Hillyer. This is the Ninth Circuit. The Judge belonged to few societies.

He was a member ot the G. A. R. and the Loyal Legion. As a lawyer he gained eminence through the care showed in mastering all the details of any case intrusted to him.

He was painstaking in the extreme. His arguments were always characterized by sound logic, and he considered this better than the use of flowery metaphore.J In Nevada he had some of the most important cases ever tried there, and the record shows best how they were handled. The deceased was unmarried. His only relative, as near as can be learned, is a brother. His sister-in-law was summoned to his bedside when he was taken sick and has remained constantly with him.

No time has been set for the funeral ceremonies. Judge Hoffman opened the Circuit Court but transacted only such business as was compulsory, and adjourned out of respect to the memory of the deceased Judge. No business of any importance was transacted in the I'nited States District Court, and an adjournment was also taken. THEY DID NOT COME. One Hundred and Eighty Coolies Who Were Going to Mexico.

San Francisco, May The steamer China reached this port yesterday morning. Much interest was centered in the arrival of the vessel, as it was expected she would have an unusually large number of passengers in transit to Mexican ports, and a test of Secretary Windom's recent order, refusing them permission to depart for Mexico, was expected. Collector of the I'orH'helps, with his assistants, were early at the wharf to await the docking of the vessel and ascertain the nature of things regarding Chinese passengers. The news that not a single Chinese was on board bound for Mexican ports was a great surprise. For a time it could not be stated why no passengers had arrived booked for Mexican ports, but this morning the reason was made known.

Before the news of Secretary Windom's order was dispatched by cable from this city, Chinese flocked on board the China at itongkong, and 180 secured tickets for Mexican ports. Then the cablegram giving notice of the Windom order was received. The steamship officials at Hongkong accordingly notified the entire number that passage was refused and their money would be refunded. This programme was carried out, and it is believed that in consequence the steamship line lost about $10,000. Of the 180 that in.

tended going to Mexico not one took a ticket for another port, and remained in Hongkong. TWO HUMAN SKELETONS. Probably Those of Packers Who Were Hilled Thirty- Two Years Ago. Marysville, May Two human skeletons, believed to be those of white men, were unearthed a few days ago in digging a ditch on the Friesleben ranch on Feather river, about midway between Marysville and Oroville. In early days there was a noted hostelry there known as "Charley's ranch," and old residents recollect that in the fall of 1858 two men mysteriously disappeared at that place.

They were packers, and pitched their camp a short distance above the hotel. On the evening of their arrival they drank freely, but refused to gamble. They left the hotel about midnight, and were never seen again. A few days later a noted gambler took possession of their pack animals and other effects, displaying a bill of sale of the property. The missing men were known to have had a considerable sum of money in their custody belonging to other parties, and the report was spread that they absconded with it, bat the discovery of the skeletons in a spot where there was no surface indication of a grave puts the disappearance of the two men in a new light, and suggests robbery and murder.

FEARS OF A FLOOD. The Columbia River Kislng- The Mountains Full of Snow. Portland May Great fears are entertained nere that the flood will exceed that of last February. C. W.

Sims, the Traveling Auditor of the Union Pacific, has just returned from eastern Oregon, Washington and Idaho, end says the amount of saow in those sections is appalling, and that so far but little impression has been made upon it by the warm weather. He is of the opinion, judging from what he has seen, and the conditions attending previous spring freshets, that within a month Co'ur d'Alene, Spokane and Snake rivers will be tearfully swollen, and consequently the Columbia will have all she can do to carry off the melting snow. The latter river is steadily but slowly rising, which fact accounts for the rise in the Willamette at this place. John F. Sherlock to-day fell into the Columbia river from the schooner Louise Olsen and was drowned.

Deceased was a son of Wm. Sherlock, the capitalist of this city. WILLIAM C. MORTON. Death at Auburn of a Once Noted Placer County Orator.

W. Gage shot end killed himselt in McDonough it Noble's saloon, the ball entering above the left ear and passing through his head. He died instantly.

m. to-day a band of twenty masked men entered the Seventy-six saloon on Main street, where E. L. Criswell was confined since Constable Southard's murder, stood up the three guards with shotguns, placed a blanket over their heads and then proceeded to Criswell's room and tied and gagged him. Then they passed a rope up over the rafters, swung him up and left him hanging until daylight.

The whole thing was done very quietly and did not awaken parties sleeping in the next room, and there was only a thin partition between. The universal verdict is, served him right. Borcuerg in Jail. Stockton, May 12th. George Borchers, the pitcher of the Stockton baseball club, is in disgrace.

For the past few days he has been on a SDree, and to-day he got abusive in a restaurant, and when his friends tried to quiet him he knocked Fairhurst, the catcher of the club, down, and proceeded to demolish the crockery. Police officers placed him under arrest and he was compelled to spend the night in jail, being unable to get anyone to go his bail. The proprietor of the restaurant will prefer charges against him in the morning for disturbing the peace. Dairymen and Butter Dealers. San Francisco, May There is trouble among the dairymen of the State and the butter dealers in this city, on account of the low prices caused by the large quantity of Eastern butter forced on the market.

(gFXCIAL DESPATCHES TO THB EL RIO KEY. It is Said That the Famous Colt Has Seen His Best Days. Chicago, May Tfmmt correspondent at Nashville, Term telegraphs as follows: '-I have read the accounts of how the New York World bad sent a veterinarian down to Nashville expressly to examine aad report on the condition of El Rio Iley, of how he made a thorough and critical examination of the great horse, and how he found him sound and all right with the exception of some head trouble, catarrh, perhaps, which can readily be cured. 1 oeiieve that, with the single exception of the Superintendent, I am the most frequent visitor to the track here, and if any New York 'vet' has examined El Uio Rey in Nashville he must have done so when Major Estill was asleep, when Joe Courtney was away and when I was holding down a ward meeting in the other end of the town. "I am sure no one here will accuse me of being prejudiced against El Rio Rey.

All know how reluctantly I have brought my pen to describe him as he is, or, at least, as I believe him to be. All know how I stuck to him through good and evil report until the facts earr out, and I became convinced of his true condition, and hence whatever I say here concerning him I say with the keenest regret, not only from my admiration for the horse, but also from the respect and esteem in which I hold Mr. Winters, Major Estill and Mr. Courtnev. "I know that they have all along been hopeful of the horse and are siill hopeful, but they must prepare to face the inevitable.

If you know anybody in Chicago who thinks El Rio Rey will win the American Derby and is willing to back his judgment I can place his money for him at odds of $5,000 to $10,000. lam not a veterinarian, and neither is the man with the $5,000. Now, as the bookies say, 'come on "El Rio Rey worked a while here yesterday in 1:55, and was given a good scrapeout. He whistled like a steam engine, and you could hear him from any part of the track. 'Is he a roarer I asked a prominent turfman.

"'I don't know whether he is or not. I am simply stating the facts. Of one thing I haven't the slightest doubt, and that is that his wind is permanently and seriously 'Are you preparing him to 'Oh, yes, they are getting him ready, and they are doing it after the most approved methods. He will be made as near ready as it is possible to make him. They may even go so far as to start him, but whenever they do it will indeed be good-by El Rio Rey.

The great horse has seen his best days on the ANOTHER SCANDAL. An Aged Millionaire Attempts to Shoot a Woman. Nkw York, May Murat Masterson, who says he is an ex-Supreme Court Judge of Arizona, and who lives at 32 West Thirty-second street, was locked up to-night on a charge of attempting to kill his alleged cousin and mistress, Mrs. Alice Hopkinson, at the Grand Central, 65 West Thirty-six street. Mrs.

Hopkinson makes a similar charge against Masterson. Masterson, according to the account given by Mrs. Hopkinson's maid, called at the house early in the evening, and being denied admittance kicked the door open and entered her apartment demanding $100,000 which he claimed she had swindled him out of. A shot was heard shortly afterwards, and Masterson rushed from the room with a smoking pistol in his hand, and running to the West Thirtieth street police station, demanded Mrs. Hopkinson's arrest for attempting to shoot him.

Mrs. Hopkinson was arrested, and at the police station made a counter charge against Masterson. Kx- Judge Masterson comes from Prescott, and is said to be worth $5,000,000. He had been a visitor at the flat a long time, and his son Howard, a boy of 13, lived with Mrs. Hopkinson until a few weeks ago.

Masterson, it is also said, owns gold mines in Chihuahua, Old Mexico, and onyx mines in Arizona. His story is that the woman swindled him out of $100,000 in mine bonds, and when he demanded their return she shot at him, and that she is now trying to blackmail him. He added that be had been her dupe long enough. The woman denies the accusations, and claims that she was a partner of his in the mining business, and that the money she retained was her share of the profits, and that Masterson attempted to shoot her. A week ago, she said, he beat her black and blue, and took $300 and a gold watch from her.

In the woman's possession were found loving letters from Masterson in which he speaks of her as the only woman he ever truly loved. Mrs. Hopkinson is a blonde about 27 years old and claims to be married. Jealousy is at the bottom of the trouble. A prominent New York business man, said to be George Carlyle Warner, is mixed up in the affair.

'Masterson is a married man. CHEAP TRAVELING. Western Roads Are Cutting Rates Down Extra Service. Chicago, May There never was a more mixed state of railroad affairs than that existing in the Western passenger business. To-morrow the Alton will begin selling tickets either way between Chicago and Kansas City for $3, and between Chicago and Denver for $10 50.

The Atchison road will meet these rates on Wednesday. The Burlington and Northwestern roads will not decide until to- morrow what they will do. The Chicago, St. Paul and Kansas City will stick to the present $8 rate order to preserve its local. To cap the climax the Rock Island will raise its rate between Chicago and Kansas City to $9 50, thus preserving its entire local passenger earnings but abandoning through business.

Beginning in a few days the Atchison will carry the war into Africa by putting on a double daily vestibule train service between Chicago and San Francisco which will beat its present time just twenty-four hours. This will reduce the time between Chicago and Kansas City to fourteen hours, a time with which the Alton alone can com pets. Not to lag behind in the procession the Burlington also cave notice that beginning on May 15th, it will reduce rates both wsvs between Chicago and St. Paul to $8 firstclass and $5 second-class. The St.

Paul road also bobbed up with a notice that on May 20th it would make, in connection with the lowa Central, a rate of $10 for first-class and $7 second-class from St. Paul to Kansas City and $11 first-class and $8 second-class from Kansas City to St. Paul. General Passenger Agent Bnsenbank, of the Chicago, St. Paul and Kansas City, said that his line was the short one between these points and that he would meet the reduction.

THEY AIX RESIGNED. The Lady Municipal Officers of a Kansas Town Are Disgusted. Kansas Citt, May The ladies recently elected municipal officers of the city of Edgerton, Mrs. W. H.

Kelly, Mayor; Mrs. Thomas Greer, Police Judge, and Mrs. Matross, Mrs. Rolla Holden, Mrs. H.

C. Brown and Mrs. Stewart, members of the City Council have hei-ome disgusted with their newly-acquired honors and resigned their positions. They were elected riginaUy as a joke, and when they guaM- fied and manifested a disposition to return: the old way of doing things the wen kicked and stormed anil made such a racket that life became a burden to the fair young officers, and they threw up the sponge. The ladies had laid a programme to build sidewalks, clean the streets, close up the hard-cider joints, and stir up the old dry bones generally.

But the men declared that as they had paid the taxes there should be no change made, and so rather than have a row the ladies determined to and let the men who weiijed to their idols run things as they always have. The men, however, are most all opposed to the ladies resigning, and several of them daoian that they will re-ekvt these same officers at the special election which has been called for May It the ladies are re-elected they will consider it an indorsement of their intended programme, and qualify and serve, ani then carry out their proposed reforms.

Helena (Mont May While setting a headstone over' the graves of the men who fell in the Custer massacre, June 25, 1870, Captain Sweet's men found three unburied bodies. One still had on the pants of the United States uniform, showing that he was a private of the Seventh United States Cavalry. The skulls of the other two men had been broken in above the ears with a stone mallet.

The boot of Otto Reed's boy, 12 years old, nephew of Custer, who was killed with him, was found in the ravine. Some buttons marked M. D. (Medical Department) were found, and the body near them no tloubt was De Wolfs remains. An officer's brass spur of peculiar con- struction and other relics were picked up.

I A thorough search of the Cusier battle- field will be made, as it is believed there are still others unburied. The finding of these three bodies makes seven in all that have been discovered, four having been found last fall and buried by General Brisbin's son and scout James A. Campbell of Fort Custer, who were searching the Custer I field for relics. WARSHIP CAPTURED. Cruiser Baltimore Overrun by a Wild Mob of Sight-Seers.

Baltimore, May 12t.h.— The cruiser Baltimore was invaded by a mob of 30,000 people yesterday, who played havoc with the beautiful vessel. A general invitation had been extended by Captain Schley to the public, but he did' not expect such a wholesale acceptance. From early in the morning until late in the afternoon men, women and children crowded in on to the vessel until it was almost impossible to move on. Ten policemen had been detailed by Marshal Frey to help preserve order, but they might as well have been kept at home, "as a hundred officers could not have prevented the crowd clambering over the sides and taking posr session of every part of the ship. They forced their way into private as well as public quarters, even the hold being thronged.

Captain Schley and his officers were utterly unable to cope with such a mob. Not content with breaking up rods, skylisrhts and minor attachments, thieves slole the ship's glasses. The vessel will require considerable cleaning before she regains her trim appearance. WAS NOT A THIEF. It Was a Case of Woman, and Not Attempted Robbery.

St. Louis, May There are new developments in the case of Henry Kunalt, who was shot -and killed last Tnursday morning by George StahUamp, who claimed Kunalt was trying to rob his shop. It has been learned that Kunalt was not on a thieving mission. His character had always been good. He bad no need to steal.

Kunalt, who was married only six months ago, had an old sweetheart, and he was not entirely oil with the old love when he married He had an appointment with her for Ihat night, and the location of Stahlkarup's carpenter shop was such as to make it a convenient trysting place. Stahlkamp, when questioned, said the man made no effort to force the door, but simply put his hand on the lock. He did not use his gun then, and did not fire until after his victim had run fully fifty feet away from him. It is altogether probable that the authorities wil! take up the case again, and that there will be some highly sensational revelations. GFNERAL WHITE.

Powder ABSOLUTELY PURE The Royal Baking Powder is absolutely pure, made from the most wholesome materials, and produces finer flavored, sweeter, lighter, more wholesome and delicious bread, biscuit, cake, pastry, than any other baking powder or leavening agent. Food raised by it will keep sweet, moist, fresh and palatable longer than when raised by yeast or other baking powders. Being of greater strength than any other baking powder, it is also the most economical in use. These great qualities warrant you, if you are not using the Royal Baking Powder, in making a trial of it..
