The Golden Jubilee THE Jubilee colors have been flung to the winds, Rnd yesterday for the first time the city breezes played with gorgeous banners of yellow and gold. Decorators Commenced work at an early hour yesterday morning, and before noon they had given Market street a most festal appearance. As far to the westward as Kearny street the brilliant Tbuntlngs flapped and fluttered, and they eeemed to lend to what sunshine there \u25a0was what little -warmth It contained. By Friday all the decorations will be in jtlai-o. and then the streets will be gay Indeed. Out Market street from the ferry to Van Ness avenue, down all the side streets from Market to Mission, a.nd from Second to Eleventh; over Montgomery, as far as the lino of march shall lead and back again over Kearoy; up one block on every street that runs west from Market, and out one block on every one that runs north tliat Is t^e plan as outlined; the yellow and poiri will bfl the burden of it all, as It Is on the main thoroughfare, but the national colors will have the place of honor through it all. The Jubilee fever has even seized John Chinaman, for he, too, is busy with his division of the parade arranging orders of march, choosing regalia and designing floats, and even going to the extent of electing marshals and aides, for John Chinaman is going to run outside the tra- ditions of his race for this once, and he will sacrifice two of his cousins In order that the Grand Marshal shall h/ive mounted Chinese for his aides from their division. The organization having charge of the Chinese, division is known as the United Parlor of the Native Sons of the GoKien Ftate. There will l>e two floats in their peotlon, and various characters in the his- tory of China will he portrayed by suit- ably costumed Celestials; every man In the Chinese section will carry a banner or Instrument or weapon of 8 I The parade committee has been annoyed by a report to the effect that the Mu- sicians' Union had a grievance against it for not adhering to union rates. It was eald, too, that the musicians had forced up the price of bands for the day from $5 a man to $7 a man. This has not been the case. The rules of the union were looked up for three years back and it was found that $7 a day for each man has always been the rate, and that there had been no forcing of the prices. There has been no attempt on the part of the committee to antagonize the union In any way, and in hiring bands it has hired all the union or- ganizations it could find. Out at the Pavilion all is activity. The most Interesting exhibit—the model of a mme Is nearly completed, and will within a few dayn be In working order. There la over GOO foot of tunneling and drifting, be- benidosi tho main nhnft, whlrh will run far beneath the Pavilion floor. The mine showß (ill tho different methods of timber- ing tunnels and shafts, the methods of working, the machinery used, the ledge, what it looks like, and how It Is followed down Into the earth, and, In fact, every- thing a person could see by going Into a mining country. It !s expected to be possible to open the Pavilion during the week of the Jubilee, and if that be so an admission fee of 10 c^nts will be charged for any one who may wish to see how things are made ready for a great exposition. Arrangements for the military games to be given at Central Park are progress- ing rapidly and a most successful meet is promised. The events will be mostly composed of those peculiar to military tournaments, and each of these has a distinct value as a means of Instruction to the soldier as well as being an Interest- Ing contest to witness. Among the events will be a wall scaling contest, in which the prize will go to that squad which first p»ts its five men over a wall ten feet high, the men to fire twenty-five shots at an Imaginary enemy while going over. Another event is a shoe race, where each man is separated from his shoes by fifty- yards, and then after the shoes of all the men in the race have been thoroughly mixed the men are started. They must find their own shoes, put them on and he wins who first reaches the scratch again with his shoes properly laced and neatly tied. A feature which adds interest to the event Is that any man who picks up the wrong shoe is at liberty to throw It as far away from him as he can. There will also be a hasty entrenchment race, in which each man will be given five min- utes to entrench himself, the man mak- ing the best cover to win. The managers of the flower market have progressed as far as the appointing of two judge* to pass upon the flowers which will bloom in Union Square. The Judge* chosen are Mayor Phelan and John McLaren, superintendent of the park; there will be three other Judges appointed, but the exhibitors will be con- sulted before they will be named. It has been decided to offer live prizes ranging from $.">0 downward, and this number will be increased if the executive committee can spare the money. The square will be brilliantly lighted during the evenings, and a fine canvas awning will be erect- ed ;i round the big flag pole in the center of the square to protect the exhibitors from the rain, should the weather office not be able to properly control the clouds. Governor Mcl-auren of Mississippi and Go\*ernor PlngTee of Michigan have com- municated to the executive committee their regrets at being unable to attend the celebration. A. I>. Sperry and J. P. Polliver of the House of Representatives end Senator W. R Allison of lowa also will be unable to be present. President Sanford B. Dole of Hawaii has been extended an Invitation to at- tend California's Golden Jubilee. A meeting of the executive committee was held last night, at which the follow- ing were appointed a reception commit- tee of the general committee: 8. 11. Daniels (chairman), L. R. Ellert, Jacob H. Neff. J. J. Dwyer. Louis Glass, Samuel P. Mlddleton, L. F. Bylngton, Henry Fortman, Samuel ('. Irving, Leon Sloss, Adolph Roos, P.en.lfimln F. Lacy, Louis F.

Frlck, Mrs. XV. S. Leake, Miss Eliza D. Keith, Miss Johanna Myers, Mrs. Anna Gruber-Foley. Plans for the first part of Jubilee week having gone far enough along to prevent Interference, the various committees are working on the events wnlch will take place during the latter days of tho cele- bration. Next to Monday, the 24th, the biggest day will be Saturday, the 29th. On tnat day the children will have their chance. The opening exercises of the Miners' Fair will be held, and a grand parade of min- ers, Including all the floats used in the big parade of the 24th. will add to the gayety of the occasion. The children will have their day in the park. Drills by pupils from the public schools, hayrides in the big park farm- wagons, games on the lawns and a least laid out by the jubilee committee if it should have funds will help to pass tne hours. In the evening it is planned to have a masquerade or mardi gras if the Super- visors will allow it. Milton Johnson, the colored beau of Oakland, Is making great preparations for the cake walk. Already seven cakes have been promised and over twenty- couples have entered. The prizes will amount to more than $500. San Luis Obispo County has decided to be represented in the celebration, and Sheriff S. D. Pallou and D. F. Mahoney, both of San Miguel and the latter a prominent Native Son, have been chosen as representatives. The Veteran Volunteer Firemen's Asso- ciation is making arrangements for the reception of the veteran firemen's asso- ciations in the Interior. letters were sent out yesterday by the jubilee committee to San Jose, Santa Rosa, Watsonvlue, Healdsburg and Santa Cruz, inviting them to participate Inthe big parade next Monday. As soon as the acceptances are received from these companies they will be assigned to a p.ace in the line and will be escorted by the local firemen's organizations. Letters have been received by the ax- ecutive committee from Governor Roger Wolcott of Massachusetts and Governor Asa S. Bushnell of Ohio, regretting their Inability to attend the jubilee celebration and extending- the congratulation of their commonwealths to the committee. The ladies of Seven Pines Circle No. 3, G. A. R., have reported to the committee that their float will we an enormous rep- resentation of the badge of the order— a flve-pointed star, containing in the center living figures of a sailor, a sol- dier, a widow and her two children. From the two upper points of the star an American flag will be stretched to th« cross bar of the badge. On this bar are the letters "P. C. W signifying "Fra- ternity, Charity and Loyalty."

Injured by a Runaway. Dennis Delaney, a laborer employed In leveling De Ilaro street, was knocked down by a runaway team yesterday af- ternoon and seriously injured internally. The team ran away from the sanitary reduction works on the dumps and strurk Delaney before he could get out of the way. He is 60 years of age and suffered severely .from the shock to his system. Knocked Down by a Wagon. Mary Wiseman, a little child 8 years of age living with her parents at 5068 Turk street, was knocked down by a milk wagon last evening at Larkin and Turk streets and received a severe laceration of the scalp. She was treated at the. Receiving Hospital by Dr. Torney, and was afterward removed to her home. Death of a Pensioner. An old man named Charles Schmidt was found dead in bed at 8 o'clock yesterday morning in the What Cheer House. The deceased was a native of Germany and 77 years old. He had been a United States pensioner for many years. An autopsy at the Morgue disclosed the fact that asthma was the cause of death. Baldwin to Go in the Spr/nff. NEW YORK, Jan. 17.—A Chicago «pe- clal to the Herald says: "Lucky" Bald- win will go to the Klondike country In the spring in search for the mother lode, from which all the placer gold which has thus far been foun comes. "There is no doubt in my mind," he said, "that this lode is of great extent and reaches probably up to the north pole and beyond." WERE CAPTURED VERY CLEVERLY Notorious Burglars Arrested Last Evening by Offi- cer Thompson. Two notorious burglars, recognized as Frank Mitchell and Sidney Kellett. were arrested by Officer K. J. Thompson late last evening on Howard street, near Twelfth. While standing at Mission and Fifteenth streets Thompson saw the two men, who were acting in a peculiar man- ner, and followed them to the place where they were arrested. Kellett was placed on the detention book at the Seventeenth Street Police Station and Mitchell was charged with carrying burglars' tools. Mitchell was in posses- sion of a jimmy and several articles of Jewelry, supposed to have been stolen W«re in K.llett's possession. Kellett la at the present time out on bonds, pending an appeal on a one year's sentence for carying concealed weapons, and he is well known by the police as a desperate character. Mitchell and Kel- lett have been closely watched for several days past and the captur* Is supposed to be clever as well as fortunate for the residents In the Mission. While the men were passing down the street they were evidently taking notes of the lay of the land, as they stopped for a short time in front of each house on the trip.

A Prankish Boy, Dressed as the Devil, Plays a Trick that May Hare Serious Results. CHICAGO, Jan. 17.—A special to the Times-Herald from Bourbon, Ind., says: Rev. Mr. Akin, pastor of the flock of Bethel Church, on Sunday took for his theme "His Satanic Majesty." He Is an eloquent man and he painted the arch- fiend In vivid colors. At the climax of the description a being dressed to repre- sent the devil, with large head and switching tail, ambled up the aisle, blow- ing smoke from his nostrils and bellow- ing: •1 am the devil and I want all of you." The audience became panic-stricken. Men, women and children were hurled to the floor and trampled upon In the mad rush for the door. In the confusion the stove was upset and the building caugnt fire. Before the horrified members had regained their senses the fire had made such headway that all attempts to save the church were In vain. This morning George Akin, eon of the pastor, confessed that he. in company with other boys, rigged up a devil suit, and knowing the subject of his father's sermon concealed himself behind a chair and awaited the arrival of the audience. -\u2666 CHARLES M. SHORTRIDGE'S CONDITION IMPROVED. Slight Change for the Better Warrants the Hope That He May Yet Recover. SAN JOSE, Jan. 17.—The condition of Charles M. Shortridge to-day was consid- ered critical, and at one time during the afternoon it was the opinion of the at- tending physicians that he had but a few hours to live. During the evening his condition changed for the better, and a telephone message received from Gilroy Hot Springs at midnight stated that his improvement was such as to warrant some hope of his recovery. Mrs. Clara S. Foltz, a sister of Mr. Shortridge, arrived in San Jose from New York this evening, and, accompanied by her son, David M. Foltz, has left for Gil- roy. HENDERSON, THE BOY MURDERER, COMMITTED. His Father Believes Him Guilty, but Pleads That His Mind Has Been Deranged by Typhoid Fever. PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 17. Samuel Henderson, the 15-year-old boy v/ho is charged with the murder of 5-year-old Percy Lockyar, was committed to prison to-day by Magistrate Johnson to await the action of the Coroner. There seema little doubt now that Henderson brutally hacked the boy to pieces, and, before Ufa was extinct, threw him in Reddles Creek and weighted the child down with heavy stones. To-day's hearing was not with- out its sad scenes. Tae boy, armarently unconscious of the extent of his crime, stared stolidly at the magistrate, while his father knelt by his side and wept over and caressed his boy. Mr. Henderson be- lieves his boy guilty, but asserts that ha is not in his right mind. Samuel had an attack of typhoid fever some years ago and his father maintains that ha haa acted strangely ever since. CAPTAIN MERRY WELCOMED AT COSTA RICA'S CAPITAL. The New Minister From the United States Officially Received by President Ig- fesias at San Jose. PANAMA, Jan. 17.—The Herald's corre- spondent in San Jose, Costa Rica, in- forms me that President Igleslas haa of- ficially received United States Minister Merry. Marked evidences of respect and esteem were extended to Captain Merry, and the new Minister expressed gratifica- tion over the manner in which he had been received by the Government and the people of Costa Rica. MORE PROOF RAESIDE WAS MURDERED Coroner Baldwin Still Probing the Shell Mound Mystery. A Significant Verdict Is Brought In by the Coroner's Jury. Many Facts to Prove the Horse- man Was Not Killed by the Train. AWAKENED BY A SCREAM. Statement of Resident of the Neigh- borhood Made a Big Winning That. Day. Murdered for the winnings he had •yron that day at the Oakland race track and his body cast upon the track of the West Berkeley train to divert suspi- cion. Evidence Is accumulating that such \u25a0was the fate of Joseph H. Raeside, the horseman, at Shell Mound last Thurs- day night. That the Coroner's Jury, Impaneled by Coroner Baldwin of Ala- meda County, Inclined to this belief Is shown by the verdict returned by them last night, to the effect "that death was caused in some manner unknown." When the unfortunate man's re- mains were first picked up it was the opinion of the railroad men that he had thrown himself in front of the lo- comotive with suicidal intent, but this belief was dissipated as soon as the Coroner and his assistants began an Investigation. Their first inquiries tended to show that Raeside had stum- bled onto the track while intoxicated, but the deeper the tragedy was probed the more firmly convinced Coroner Baldwin became that the man was the victim of thugs, and finally he called upon the police authorities for assist- ance. Detectives Holland and Herbert were detailed on the case, and they, too, express themselves as satisfied that murder has been committed. There are many circumstances tend- ing to substantiate this view. Raeside was known to have made a large win- ning on Ricardo at 30 and 40 to 1 that day, the first of any consequence for a long time. Shortly after 9 o'clock that night he was seen by an acquaintance in this city, apparently sober, hurrying along Kearny street toward Market, evident- lyto board a car for the ferry. Then a brakeman on the Berkeley train re- members a man who tallies with Rae- Blde's description get off at Shell Mound about 10:40 o'clock. The brakeman says the person he saw may have been slightly under the influence of liquor, but was by no means intoxicated. But there are other things which were brought out at the inquest last "leht, and the Alameda County au- thorlties will sift the matter to the bot- tom. Raeside has been a familiar figure on the local tracks for some time. He was a Scotchman by birth, and at one time was possessed of considerable funds, but of late he has been at the bottom of the ladder, and finally was compelled to accept a position as rub- ber for Capp, the owner of Ricardo. That Raeside was well connected wns shown by his speech and manners. He was also a thirty-second degree Mason and a Knight Templar, being a mem- ber of the Waukeegan, 111., ("ommand- ery, which body has ordered a thor- ough investigation into the cause of his death. The same authority ordered the remains shipped to that place Sunday night for burial. Coroner Baldwin has traced with considerable accuracy the movements of Raeside on the day of his doath. It is known positively that he won something like $1200 on the races that day, and after finishing his work at the track went to Oakland and after- ward came to this city. Some of his movements wer.e told to the Coroner's jury at Saturday night's hearing, but new and important evi- dence was brought out last night. James Collins, a barkeeper at Earl's saloon on Thirteenth street, near Washington, testified that Raeside went into his place about ten days ago and called for a drink, placing a dime on the bar in payment. Collins knew Raeside was not flush with money, and told him to have a drink with the house. Thursday evening about 6 o'clock Raeside again visited the sa- loon nnrl said to Collins: "Idon't for- get a favor, it's your turn to drink with me." He told Collins he had made a good winning that day, in proof of which he displayed $10 or $12 in silver and about |$0 in sold. He stated that h u warn coming to San Francisco to pay a bill of $10 he owed, and promised the barkeeper to let him in on a "good thing" at the tra^k In a few days. "1 have taken a liking to you." said Raeside, "and I will give you a good thing next week. lam no tout and only try to help my friends out." He said further that he had left |M 0 with the bookmakers, that he never took his money away and never let the touts know he had any, for some of them would rob a man for 60 cents. i '"llins said liaeside had taken a few drinks, but was by no means intoxi- cated. He left the saloon at 7:10 o'clock to catch the train for San Fran- cis"D. Dr. Porter was recalled and testified that from measurements he had taken of the body he judged Raeside to have been 5 feet 9 or 10 inches in height. He had also measured the space be- tween the rails of a standard-gauge track, and it was his opinion that the body had lain across the rails and the wheels had passed" over his head and the legs below the knees. The broken ribs he accounted for by the body be- ing caught and rolled under the en- gine. The trainmen were called to grive pome further evidence, and then the jury brought In the following verdict: "We, the jury, do find that the name of the deceased was Joseph H. Uaeside, a native of Scotland, aged about #3 years, and that he came to tils death at Shell Mound \u25a0 station, * Emeryville, Alameda County, <".il.. at some time between 10:40 and 11 lock p. m. January 13, IK'S, and that death was caused in some manner unknown to this jury. A Call reporter, accompanied by an artist, made a careful inspection of the scene of the tragedy yesterday, and picked up one bit of information which had been overlooked by the officers. I-iss than 200 feet from the spot where Haesi'it : body was found lives an old man named Holland. He stated that sometime between 10 and 11 o'clock last Thursday night he was awakened by a piercing scream. He got out of bed, but heard nothing more and went back to bed. All the trainmen declare they heard no sound, so it may be that the shriek Holland heard was uttered by Raeside when attacked by robbers. The West Berkeley train runs on to a side track in coming into Shell Mound station. The engine is un- coupled and runs ahead onto the main track again, then backs down to the switch it first came on and back to the single car It draws. This occupies loss than two minutes, and when it first ran on to the switch Thursday night nothing was to be seen of Rae- Btde. When it came back the second time the man was lying on the track. The engineer tried to stop his engine, but could not do so in time and the wheels severed the head from the body and cut off the legs. On the east Bide of the track there is a fence extending t<>u;ird the station fully 100 feet be- yond where the body lay, and it would be hardly possible for a drunken man to walk that far before the engine re- turned. There would be ample time, however, to throw the body over the fence and place it across the track and for the murderers to Jump back over the fence and out of sight. Raeside slept at the race track near the gate opposite Shell Mound, so that is where he would get off the train. He would have no business near the Wrst Berkeley track and certainly none where he was run over. If he was murdered the assassins planned their work so carefully that it Is doubtful if they will ever be brought to Justice. Switch at Shell Mound Where Raeside's Body Was Found. PRICES OF CALIFORNIA PRUNES TO BE ADVANCED. But in Other Fruits the New fork Markets Are Well Supplied and the Figures Are Low. NEW YORK, Jan. 17.— The Journal of Commerce says: Telegrams received this morning from its principals in California Instructed a commission house here, •which is credited with being one of the chief holders of orunes in this market- to advance prices, as no more goods were to be had on the coast at less than 3 cents f. o. b. for Santa Clara fruit, and the stock of northern and southern prunes was closely controlled by specu- lators. The feeling in lemons is steady, owing to the comparatively small quan- tity of Sicily fruit on the spot and to arrive, but, while the tendency of prices on the latter is upward, rather free of- ferings of California fruit in the inferior markets at comparatively low figures prevent any improvement in prices. Sel- lers, however, are confident and look for better figures during the coming week. Jamaica oranges are quiet, but prices are maintained. Florida oranges are in small stock and in few hands. The mar- ket is firm, but we hear of little demand. Valencia oranges are ebout out of mar- ket, and, so far as we can learn, there is nothing to arrive near due. Spot prices are nominal and unchanged. BALLINGTON BOOTH IS GREATLY REJOICED. Reconciliation With His Father May Result in the American Volunteers and Salvation- ists Working in Harmony. NEW YORK. Jan. 18.— The World says: Commander Ballington Booth of the American Volunteers said yesterday that he was greatly rejoiced over his recon- ciliation with his father. He thought he said, that important results would fol- low. "I believe that hereafter," he added "the American Volunteers and the Salva- tion Army will pursue their work in their respective fields like churches of different denominations, in perfect haromny, and possibly with co-operation. There will, we hope, hereafter be perfect good feel- ing. This is what the Volunteers have been hoping and working for, and we are happy at the prospect of peace." FIRE-PROOF WOOD YET TO BE USED Secretary Long Directs That Battle-Ships Be Built Ac- cording to Contract. This Material to Be Employed In Joiner Work, as Provided, in the- Specifications. Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK. Jan. 17.—A Washington special to the Herald says: Secretary Long has directed that the specifications for the construction of the battleships K'-arsarge, Kentucky, Alabama, Wiscon- sin and Illinois, providing for the build- Ing of the joiner work with fire-proof wood be carried out. This comprises over two-thirds of the woodwork in the ves- sels named. The Secretary says that after a careful consideration of the advantages derived from the use of electro fire-proof wood on naval vessels it is decided that no electro fire-proof wood shall be hereafter used for the decking of naval vessels, as the advantages that might be derived from the use of such wood are incommen- surate with the cost of the same, and that its use on torpedo-boats now under construction be discontinued, as there is so little woodwork on them, but that electro fire-proof wood shall be used in all joiner work of the new battleships as provided in the specifications accompany- ing the contract, therefor, as the advan- tages to be derived from its use for such purposes would seem to justify the in- creased cost incident thereto. It was officially announced at the Navy Department to-day that Civil Engineer A. G. Menocal had been ordered to return to New York and report his arrival to the department by telegraph. It is ex- pected at the department that Menocal will return to the United States within the next ten days. Chief Engineer Kirby has been trans- ferred from the Baltimore to the hospital in San Francisco. THE SAX FKAXCISCO CALL., TUESDAY, JANUARY 18, 1898. 8 NEW TO-DAY.

—tliat Is t^e plan as outlined; the

yellow and poiri will bfl the burden of itall, as ItIs on the main thoroughfare, butthe national colors willhave the place ofhonor through it all.

The Jubilee fever has even seized JohnChinaman, for he, too, is busy with hisdivision of the parade

—arranging orders

of march, choosing regalia and designingfloats, and even going to the extent ofelecting marshals and aides, for JohnChinaman is going to run outside the tra-ditions of his race for this once, and hewill sacrifice two of his cousins In orderthat the Grand Marshal shall h/ivemounted Chinese for his aides from theirdivision.

The organization having charge of theChinese, division is known as the UnitedParlor of the Native Sons of the GoKienFtate. There will l>e two floats in theirpeotlon, and various characters inthe his-tory of China will he portrayed by suit-ably costumed Celestials; every man Inthe Chinese section willcarry a banner orInstrument or weapon of 8 I

The parade committee has been annoyedby a report to the effect that the Mu-sicians' Union had a grievance against itfor not adhering to union rates. It waseald, too, that the musicians had forcedup the price of bands for the day from $5a man to $7 a man. This has not been thecase. The rules of the union were lookedup for three years back and it was foundthat $7 a day for each man has alwaysbeen the rate, and that there had been noforcing of the prices. There has been noattempt on the part of the committee toantagonize the union In any way, and inhiring bands it has hired all the union or-ganizations it could find.

Out at the Pavilion all is activity. The

most Interesting exhibit—the model of amme —

It !s expected to be possible to open thePavilion during the week of the Jubilee,and if that be so an admission fee of 10c^nts will be charged for any one whomay wish to see how things are madeready for a great exposition.

Arrangements for the military games

to be given at Central Park are progress-ing rapidly and a most successful meetis promised. The events will be mostlycomposed of those peculiar to militarytournaments, and each of these has adistinct value as a means of Instructionto the soldier as well as being an Interest-Ingcontest to witness. Among the eventswill be a wall scaling contest, in whichthe prize willgo to that squad which firstp»ts its five men over a wall ten feethigh, the men to fire twenty-five shots at

an Imaginary enemy while going over.Another event is a shoe race, where eachman is separated from his shoes by fifty-yards, and then after the shoes of all themen in the race have been thoroughlymixed the men are started. They mustfind their own shoes, put them on and hewins who first reaches the scratch againwith his shoes properly laced and neatly

tied. A feature which adds interest tothe event Is that any man who picks upthe wrong shoe is at liberty to throw Itas far away from him as he can. Therewill also be a hasty entrenchment race,in which each man willbe given five min-utes to entrench himself, the man mak-ing the best cover to win.

HENDERSON, THE BOYMURDERER, COMMITTED.

His Father Believes Him Guilty, but PleadsThat His MindHas Been Deranged

by Typhoid Fever.PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 17.

—Samuel

Henderson, the 15-year-old boy v/ho ischarged with the murder of 5-year-oldPercy Lockyar, was committed to prisonto-day by Magistrate Johnson to awaitthe action of the Coroner. There seemalittle doubt now that Henderson brutallyhacked the boy to pieces, and, before Ufawas extinct, threw him in Reddles Creekand weighted the child down with heavy

stones. To-day's hearing was not with-out its sad scenes. Tae boy, armarentlyunconscious of the extent of his crime,stared stolidly at the magistrate, whilehis father knelt by his side and wept overand caressed his boy. Mr. Henderson be-lieves his boy guilty,but asserts that hais not in his right mind. Samuel had anattack of typhoid fever some years agoand his father maintains that ha haaacted strangely ever since.

MORE PROOFRAESIDE WAS

MURDEREDCoroner Baldwin Still

Probing the ShellMound Mystery.

A Significant Verdict IsBrought In by the

Coroner's Jury.

Many Facts to Prove the Horse-

man Was Not Killedbythe Train.

AWAKENED BY A SCREAM.

Statement of • Resident of the Neigh-

borhood—

Made a Big Winning

That. Day.

Murdered for the winnings he had•yron that day at the Oakland race trackand his body cast upon the track of theWest Berkeley train to divert suspi-cion.

Evidence Is accumulating that such\u25a0was the fate of Joseph H. Raeside, thehorseman, at Shell Mound last Thurs-day night. That the Coroner's Jury,Impaneled by Coroner Baldwin of Ala-meda County, Inclined to this belief Isshown by the verdict returned by themlast night, to the effect "that death wascaused in some manner unknown."

When the unfortunate man's re-mains were first picked up it was theopinion of the railroad men that hehad thrown himself in front of the lo-comotive with suicidal intent, but thisbelief was dissipated as soon as theCoroner and his assistants began anInvestigation. Their first inquiriestended to show that Raeside had stum-bled onto the track while intoxicated,but the deeper the tragedy was probedthe more firmly convinced CoronerBaldwin became that the man was thevictim of thugs, and finally he calledupon the police authorities for assist-ance. Detectives Holland and Herbertwere detailed on the case, and they,too, express themselves as satisfiedthat murder has been committed.

There are many circumstances tend-ing to substantiate this view. Raesidewas known to have made a large win-ning on Ricardo at 30 and 40 to 1 thatday, the first of any consequence for along time.

Shortly after 9 o'clock that night hewas seen by an acquaintance in thiscity, apparently sober, hurrying alongKearny street toward Market, evident-lyto board a car for the ferry. Then abrakeman on the Berkeley train re-members a man who tallies with Rae-Blde's description get off at Shell Moundabout 10:40 o'clock. The brakemansays the person he saw may have beenslightly under the influence of liquor,but was by no means intoxicated.

But there are other things whichwere brought out at the inquest last"leht, and the Alameda County au-

thorlties willsift the matter to the bot-tom.

Raeside has been a familiar figure onthe local tracks for some time. Hewas a Scotchman by birth, and at onetime was possessed of considerablefunds, but of late he has been at thebottom of the ladder, and finally wascompelled to accept a position as rub-ber for Capp, the owner of Ricardo.

That Raeside was well connected wnsshown by his speech and manners. Hewas also a thirty-second degree Masonand a Knight Templar, being a mem-ber of the Waukeegan, 111., ("ommand-ery, which body has ordered a thor-ough investigation into the cause of hisdeath. The same authority ordered theremains shipped to that place Sundaynight for burial.

Coroner Baldwin has traced withconsiderable accuracy the movementsof Raeside on the day of his doath. Itis known positively that he wonsomething like $1200 on the races thatday, and after finishing his work atthe track went to Oakland and after-ward came to this city.

Some of his movements wer.e told tothe Coroner's jury at Saturday night'shearing, but new and important evi-dence was brought out last night.James Collins, a barkeeper at Earl'ssaloon on Thirteenth street, nearWashington, testified that Raesidewent into his place about ten days agoand called for a drink, placing a dimeon the bar in payment. Collins knewRaeside was not flush with money,and told him to have a drink with the

house. Thursday evening about 6o'clock Raeside again visited the sa-loon nnrl said to Collins: "Idon't for-get a favor, it's your turn to drinkwith me." He told Collins he hadmade a good winning that day, inproof of which he displayed $10 or $12in silver and about |$0 in sold. Hestated that hu warn coming to SanFrancisco to pay a bill of $10 he owed,and promised the barkeeper to let himin on a "good thing" at the tra^k In afew days. "1 have taken a liking toyou." said Raeside, "and Iwill giveyou a good thing next week. lam notout and only try to help my friendsout."

He said further that he had left |M0with the bookmakers, that he nevertook his money away and never letthe touts know he had any, for some ofthem would rob a man for 60 cents.

i '"llins said liaeside had taken a fewdrinks, but was by no means intoxi-cated. He left the saloon at 7:10o'clock to catch the train for San Fran-cis"D.

Dr. Porter was recalled and testifiedthat from measurements he had takenof the body he judged Raeside to havebeen 5 feet 9 or 10 inches in height.He had also measured the space be-tween the rails of a standard-gaugetrack, and it was his opinion that thebody had lain across the rails and thewheels had passed" over his head andthe legs below the knees. The brokenribs he accounted for by the body be-ing caught and rolled under the en-gine.

The trainmen were called to grivepome further evidence, and then thejury brought In the following verdict:

"We, the jury, do find that the name ofthe deceased was Joseph H. Uaeside, anative of Scotland, aged about #3 years,and that he came to tils death at ShellMound \u25a0 station, *Emeryville, AlamedaCounty, <".il.. at some time between 10:40and 11 lock p. m. January 13, IK'S, andthat death was caused in some mannerunknown to this jury.

A Call reporter, accompanied by anartist, made a careful inspection of thescene of the tragedy yesterday, andpicked up one bit of information whichhad been overlooked by the officers.I-iss than 200 feet from the spot whereHaesi'it : body was found lives an oldman named Holland. He stated thatsometime between 10 and 11 o'clock lastThursday night he was awakened by apiercing scream. He got out of bed,but heard nothing more and went backto bed. All the trainmen declare theyheard no sound, so it may be that theshriek Holland heard was uttered byRaeside when attacked by robbers.

The West Berkeley train runs on toa side track in coming into ShellMound station. The engine is un-coupled and runs ahead onto the maintrack again, then backs down to theswitch it first came on and back tothe single car It draws. This occupiesloss than two minutes, and when itfirst ran on to the switch Thursdaynight nothing was to be seen of Rae-Btde. When it came back the secondtime the man was lying on the track.The engineer tried to stop his engine,but could not do so in time and thewheels severed the head from the bodyand cut off the legs. On the east Bideof the track there is a fence extendingt<>u;ird the station fully 100 feet be-yond where the body lay, and itwouldbe hardly possible for a drunken manto walk that far before the engine re-turned. There would be ample time,however, to throw the body over thefence and place it across the track andfor the murderers to Jump back overthe fence and out of sight.

Raeside slept at the race track nearthe gate opposite Shell Mound, so thatis where he would get off the train.He would have no business near theWrst Berkeley track and certainlynone where he was run over.Ifhe was murdered the assassins

planned their work so carefully thatit Is doubtful if they will ever bebrought to Justice.

PRICES OF CALIFORNIAPRUNES TO BE ADVANCED.

to advance prices, as no more goods wereto be had on the coast at less than 3cents f. o. b. for Santa Clara fruit, andthe stock of northern and southernprunes was closely controlled by specu-lators. The feeling in lemons is steady,owing to the comparatively small quan-tity of Sicily fruit on the spot and toarrive, but, while the tendency of priceson the latter is upward, rather free of-ferings of California fruit in the inferiormarkets at comparatively low figuresprevent any improvement in prices. Sel-lers, however, are confident and look forbetter figures during the coming week.Jamaica oranges are quiet, but prices aremaintained. Florida oranges are insmall stock and in few hands. The mar-ket is firm, but we hear of little demand.Valencia oranges are ebout out of mar-ket, and, so far as we can learn, thereis nothing to arrive near due. Spot pricesare nominal and unchanged.

for the construction of the battleshipsK'-arsarge, Kentucky, Alabama, Wiscon-

sin and Illinois, providing for the build-Ing of the joiner work with fire-proof

wood be carried out. This comprises overtwo-thirds of the woodwork in the ves-sels named.

The Secretary says that after a carefulconsideration of the advantages derivedfrom the use of electro fire-proof wood

on naval vessels it is decided that noelectro fire-proof wood shall be hereafterused for the decking of naval vessels, asthe advantages that might be derivedfrom the use of such wood are incommen-surate with the cost of the same, andthat its use on torpedo-boats now underconstruction be discontinued, as there isso little woodwork on them, but thatelectro fire-proof wood shall be used inall joiner work of the new battleships asprovided in the specifications accompany-ing the contract, therefor, as the advan-tages to be derived from its use for suchpurposes would seem to justify the in-creased cost incident thereto.It was officially announced at the Navy

Department to-day that CivilEngineer A.G. Menocal had been ordered to returnto New York and report his arrival tothe department by telegraph. It is ex-pected at the department that Menocalwill return to the United States withinthe next ten days.
