Park. Telegraph: “Enoch” (John) Irving, the superintendent of Glenbrook Park, is getting everything’ in readiness for . . the fall racing -of the Nevada County Racing Association. The races will be held after the State Fair races or the first week in October. Superintendent Irving is getting the track in fine shape, harrowing and scraping it, building new fences and putting.in new culverts to drain the track. “He is also cutting and burning away the brush preparatory to (fixing up the picnic ground. Ii is well worth a trip to the Park to see the many improvements made and contemplated. ‘There are several horses in training at the track under Irving's instruction, among the number being horses belonging ‘to Messrs Jones, Tickell, Watt, and and others. Irving Speaks words of praise for the horses of Messrs Jones and Bennetts, also Watt’s running horse, ; Not .So, The rumor that.Thomas B. Reed, in the event that he did not obtain. the ~ Presidential nomination, would’ retire from public life did not have the slightest foundation. He has announced that he will accept a nomination to Congress from his district.

Mrs. Douglass In a Critical Condition=-She Is Taken to San Francisco ToDay--Continuation of the Corener’s Inquest--The Dead Robber Gave His Name Here as W. L. Davidson, and Not "as C. Meyers--Contest For the Shrievalty. ~~ « The Transorirt has received information that the highwayman’ killed by Sheriff Douglass, ‘and who had given the name of Davidson, is not the -stepson or adopted son of Theodore Winters, as has been reported. It is now known that Winters’ stepson is alive and well. He is engaged jn raising sheep near Susanville, Lassen county. The statement that Davidson was a step son of Winters came from Marysville and was based upon what Davidson had told parties in that place. ‘He’ evidently misrepresented to them for some purpose-and his story has led to a case of mistaken identity. Davidson worked for the Lane Bros. in their livery stable at Marysville about a year ago, being there a few weeks. ‘The police of Marysville knew him for a bad man. . HAD $5000 INSURANCE, The Sheriff Left His Widow Well Provided For. D. F. Roddan of Wheatland was in town today. He is agent for the Covenant Mutual Life Association of Galesburg, Illinois, and informs us: that the late Sherifi’s life was insured in hié company for $5000, which amount will be paid to the widow. The. friends of deceased will be pleased to learn that he had made provision for his family in the event of his being taken away. DAVIDSON AND NOT MEYERS. Mr. Marsh Made an Error in the Name. the Dead Robber Gave Him. It was learned today that a mistake had been made in the name given by the dead robber when ‘he went to work at Marsh’s sawmill. On looking at the books it was found that he gave the name of W. L. Davidson. This discovery may throw.new light on the case and lead to his true identity. DAVIDSON KILLED DOUGLASS. Detective Thacker Thinks the Dead Robber Killed the Sheriff. This morning Detective Thacker, policeman Gibson and E. A. Tompkins and Harry Douglass went out to make another examination of the place where the shocking tragedy occurred on Sunday. There is a strong belief among some people that the dead robber and the Sheriff were the only participants in the shooting. One theory upon which this belief is founded is that Douglass came upon the robber unawares and ordered him to surrender; that the latter reached for his rifle, when Douglass fired, shooting him through the abdomen. Seeing that the fellow was badly wounded he ceased firing and approached the prostrate man for the purpose of determining the extent of the wound and placing him in a comfortable position; that he made a pilbeneath his head. Seeing that the coat made a very flimsy bolster he took off his own eoat or duster and. started to roll it up to add to the pillow; that while folding the coat he laid his pistol down and the robber, having still considerable vitality left, grabbed the pistoland fired at Douglass, the bullet striking him in the hand; that Douglass, finding himself unarmed and wounded, turned to run and was shot in the back, receiving a mortal wound; that the robber, realizing that he was . himself fatally wounded, placed the . muzzle of the pistol to his own breast and sent a bullet through his heart. The wound in the robber's side was powder buried, indicating that it had been received at close range. This theory would account for the four empty chambers in Sheriff Douglass’ pistol when it was found.Some slight variations in the above city and attended school here. He was . for some time engaged in the sawmill business at Snow Tent, above North: ' Bloomfield.’ He is here as agent. of the . . of Galesburg, Illinois. _ Card of Thanks.

In fact there are. many solutions offered, on ‘both sides, but it will probably always remain a mystery exactly how it happened.

Getchell and i John A, Rapp. su oer Mrs. David Douglass is quite sick and was taken to San Francisco today for medical treatment. She was unable to attend the funeral yesterday. George Davis, who it was reported went from Marysville to Grass Valley with the robber who was killed ‘Sunday, bas been interviewed by the officers at Marysville. He says a man named Jenks took him and Philip Weaver to Grass Valley ‘on May 6th, where Weaver's father, who is-a blackSmith, resides. The two\Weavers and himself chopped wood at Joe Thomas’ ranch until July 7th; when they started on foot for: Marysville, arriving there on the 10th. Since then he had worked six days and was paid off last Satuiday. He had been boarding since that time with Mrs, Jacobs. He denied that he knew Meyers, but possibly his partner Weaver might have known him. Weaver is working in a stable at Marysville, < THE CORONER’S INQUESTS. A Verdict in One Case--The Other Case Not Vet Concluded. . The Coroner’s jury in the casé of the dead robber returned a verdict a few minutes after 10 o’clock last night, to the effect that his ‘name was O. Meyers, his age 35 years, and that he was killed by a gunshot wound inflicted by. the late Sheriff Douglass. The follow: ing comprised the jury: John Dunnicliff, foreman; J. B. Moulton, David Hutchison, Frank Kendrick, W. J. Hitchins, E. Booth. ; Policeman Gibson of San Francisco was the principal witness examined last night. He was positive the dead man was the one who stopped and robbed him on the San Juan road. In his opinion Meyer was an old hand at the business. The painter Johnson, who was jailed Monday night on account of his strange. actions, was put on the witness stand and examined for an hour. He contradicted himself several times. John Blamey testified to meeting the robber and another man supposed to be his. accomplice, and described the latter. Clifford O'Neill testified that he found a 44-calibre pistol shell about 100 yards from where the tragedy took place. Probably this was the cartridge fired by Sheriff Douglass on Saturday when he was chasing the robber. Ed Dulac said that on Sunday night he met a man on the San Juan road, walking towards the Purdon grade, and not far from where the men were killed. He was carrying what appeared to be blankets in a white canvas sack. THE DOUGLASS INQUEST, Several More Witnesses Testify--The ~ Jury Visit the Robbers’-Camp; The Coroner’s jury impanelled to examine into the circumstances of the late Sheriff's death resumed their labors today. M. McGrath testified as to the finding of the bodies in accordance. with the facts heretofore published. T. Johnson, the painter who was arrested on suspicion, was examined for the purpose of endeavoring to connect him with the dead robber. He denied knowing Meyers or anything about the crime. He was returned to jail. Chas. Barton testified that he waw' going up the Sugar Loaf grade and met Johnson. He asked Johnson if he knew where the murder was committed and the latter said no. Barton went ‘directly to the scene of the killing and found Johnson there ahead _ of him, Johnson said, “Oh, you’ve “got here, have you?” Johnson added that he lost his way in reaching the spot. Marshal Getchell handed witness the rifle ber, and it was at half cock. .T. C. Moran testified that he saw two men, one of whom looked like Meyers, ago week; : Chas. Goldsmith and James Hanley téstified that Friday night Davidson, Johnson the painter and. two other men besides themselves together . in. Brace’s saloon, They left the saloon and crossing the street sat.on a lumber pile,“ Johnson und Davidscn sitting together. The two latter were 1 . Johnson was recalled. An effort was th a ie a se i when he took it from under the robnear David Atiderson’s cabin over a . = t witness and the her under a tree on the Sutton ranch before July 1st. Johnson said he was not sure whether Davidson was the. man who slept there that night or net. He denies any recollection of the robber (Davidson) being in the crowd the night he was at Brace’s saloon. Samuel Simmons testified that in May he directed robber Davidson and and another man with him to Marsh’s Sawmill: They said they were woodchoppers and hunting for a job, J.J. Patterson testified that Davidson and his partner were at. his lemonade stand on the evening “of J aly 4th. The partner was the-dark. mustached man the officers ars now looking for. J. W. Brace was not sure the dead robber had been seen by him in his saloon, ‘ : This afternoon the jury went out to view the scene of the killing, and had not returned at the hour of going to press. ¥S, > . EVIDENTLY AN ERROR. Trying to Establish the Identity of the Dead Robber. WooptanpD, OAt., July 28.—The highwayman killed by Sheriff Douglass in Nevada County was George Winters, a former Yolo boy, Twenty, years ago young Winters lived with his stepfather, Theodore Winters; the well-known horse-breeder and millionaire, on the latter's magnificent estate near the town of Winters, which was named in his honor. As a boy he was continually committing mischief of all kinds. He was educated in the common schools, and when Theodore Winters moved to Nevada he placed his sonin charge of one of his stockranches. A prominent resident of this city who resided in Nevada in the eighties is quite familiar with. George Winters’ career in the ‘ablé:reputation. He was reckless and daring. In boundary disputes he showed no mercy to settlers. An old man located’ on” a section of land adjoining Winters’ ranch, and his land was so located that the Winters were compelled to drive stock across it to finally forbade them crossing his land. In short time he was killed. It was charged that young Winters employed cowboys to murder him. Winters was arrested, but discharged, as the evidence was not sufficient to convict, It is said that one of the men who killed the settler: confessed a few years ago, and said he was hired to commit the deed .by Winters. Winters continued incharge of the ranches until a few ago, when he came to California, and his acquaintances heard nothof him until the killing by Sheriff Douglass was received. He is described as havingbeen a remarkablyfinelooking man when he was young. ‘<A DESERVED TRIBUTE. A State Official’s Letter About Da: vid F.

Mrs. Douglass In a Critical Condition=-She Is Taken to San Francisco ToDay--Continuation of the Corener’s Inquest--The Dead Robber Gave His Name Here as W. L. Davidson, and Not "as C. Meyers--Contest For the Shrievalty. ~~ « The Transorirt has received information that the highwayman’ killed by Sheriff Douglass, ‘and who had given the name of Davidson, is not the -stepson or adopted son of Theodore Winters, as has been reported. It is now known that Winters’ stepson is alive and well. He is engaged jn raising sheep near Susanville, Lassen county. The statement that Davidson was a step son of Winters came from Marysville and was based upon what Davidson had told parties in that place. ‘He’ evidently misrepresented to them for some purpose-and his story has led to a case of mistaken identity. Davidson worked for the Lane Bros. in their livery stable at Marysville about a year ago, being there a few weeks. ‘The police of Marysville knew him for a bad man. . HAD $5000 INSURANCE, The Sheriff Left His Widow Well Provided For. D. F. Roddan of Wheatland was in town today. He is agent for the Covenant Mutual Life Association of Galesburg, Illinois, and informs us: that the late Sherifi’s life was insured in hié company for $5000, which amount will be paid to the widow. The. friends of deceased will be pleased to learn that he had made provision for his family in the event of his being taken away. DAVIDSON AND NOT MEYERS. Mr. Marsh Made an Error in the Name. the Dead Robber Gave Him. It was learned today that a mistake had been made in the name given by the dead robber when ‘he went to work at Marsh’s sawmill. On looking at the books it was found that he gave the name of W. L. Davidson. This discovery may throw.new light on the case and lead to his true identity. DAVIDSON KILLED DOUGLASS. Detective Thacker Thinks the Dead Robber Killed the Sheriff. This morning Detective Thacker, policeman Gibson and E. A. Tompkins and Harry Douglass went out to make another examination of the place where the shocking tragedy occurred on Sunday. There is a strong belief among some people that the dead robber and the Sheriff were the only participants in the shooting. One theory upon which this belief is founded is that Douglass came upon the robber unawares and ordered him to surrender; that the latter reached for his rifle, when Douglass fired, shooting him through the abdomen. Seeing that the fellow was badly wounded he ceased firing and approached the prostrate man for the purpose of determining the extent of the wound and placing him in a comfortable position; that he made a pilbeneath his head. Seeing that the coat made a very flimsy bolster he took off his own eoat or duster and. started to roll it up to add to the pillow; that while folding the coat he laid his pistol down and the robber, having still considerable vitality left, grabbed the pistoland fired at Douglass, the bullet striking him in the hand; that Douglass, finding himself unarmed and wounded, turned to run and was shot in the back, receiving a mortal wound; that the robber, realizing that he was . himself fatally wounded, placed the . muzzle of the pistol to his own breast and sent a bullet through his heart. The wound in the robber's side was powder buried, indicating that it had been received at close range. This theory would account for the four empty chambers in Sheriff Douglass’ pistol when it was found.Some slight variations in the above city and attended school here. He was . for some time engaged in the sawmill business at Snow Tent, above North: ' Bloomfield.’ He is here as agent. of the . . of Galesburg, Illinois. _ Card of Thanks.

George Davis, who it was reported went from Marysville to Grass Valley with the robber who was killed ‘Sunday, bas been interviewed by the officers at Marysville. He says a man named Jenks took him and Philip Weaver to Grass Valley ‘on May 6th, where Weaver's father, who is-a blackSmith, resides. The two\Weavers and himself chopped wood at Joe Thomas’ ranch until July 7th; when they started on foot for: Marysville, arriving there on the 10th.. Since then he had worked six days and was paid off last Satuiday. He had been boarding since that time with Mrs, Jacobs. He denied that he knew Meyers, but possibly his partner Weaver might have known him. Weaver is working in a stable at Marysville, < THE CORONER’S INQUESTS. A Verdict in One Case--The Other Case Not Vet Concluded. . The Coroner’s jury in the casé of the dead robber returned a verdict a few minutes after 10 o’clock last night, to the effect that his ‘name was O. Meyers, his age 35 years, and that he was killed by a gunshot wound inflicted by. the late Sheriff Douglass. The follow: ing comprised the jury: John Dunnicliff, foreman; J. B. Moulton, David Hutchison, Frank Kendrick, W. J. Hitchins, E. Booth. ; Policeman Gibson of San Francisco was the principal witness examined last night. He was positive the dead man was the one who stopped and robbed him on the San Juan road. In his opinion Meyer was an old hand at the business. The painter Johnson, who was jailed Monday night on account of his strange. actions, was put on the witness stand and examined for an hour. He contradicted himself several times. John Blamey testified to meeting the robber and another man supposed to be his. accomplice, and described the latter. Clifford O'Neill testified that he found a 44-calibre pistol shell about 100 yards from where the tragedy took place. Probably this was the cartridge fired by Sheriff Douglass on Saturday when he was chasing the robber. Ed Dulac said that on Sunday night he met a man on the San Juan road, walking towards the Purdon grade, and not far from where the men were killed. He was carrying what appeared to be blankets in a white canvas sack. THE DOUGLASS INQUEST, Several More Witnesses Testify--The ~ Jury Visit the Robbers’-Camp; The Coroner’s jury impanelled to examine into the circumstances of the late Sheriff's death resumed their labors today. M. McGrath testified as to the finding of the bodies in accordance. with the facts heretofore published. T. Johnson, the painter who was arrested on suspicion, was examined for the purpose of endeavoring to connect him with the dead robber. He denied knowing Meyers or anything about the crime. He was returned to jail. Chas. Barton testified that he waw' going up the Sugar Loaf grade and met Johnson. He asked Johnson if he knew where the murder was committed and the latter said no. Barton went ‘directly to the scene of the killing and found Johnson there ahead _ of him, Johnson said, “Oh, you’ve “got here, have you?” Johnson added that he lost his way in reaching the spot. Marshal Getchell handed witness the rifle ber, and it was at half cock. .T. C. Moran testified that he saw two men, one of whom looked like Meyers, ago week; : Chas. Goldsmith and James Hanley téstified that Friday night Davidson, Johnson the painter and. two other men besides themselves together . in.

Johnson said he was not sure whether Davidson was the. man who slept there that night or net. He denies any recollection of the robber (Davidson) being in the crowd the night he was at Brace’s saloon. Samuel Simmons testified that in May he directed robber Davidson and and another man with him to Marsh’s Sawmill: They said they were woodchoppers and hunting for a job, J.J. Patterson testified that Davidson and his partner were at. his lemonade stand on the evening “of J aly 4th. The partner was the-dark. mustached man the officers ars now looking for. J. W.

EVIDENTLY AN ERROR. Trying to Establish the Identity of the Dead Robber. WooptanpD, OAt., July 28.—The highwayman killed by Sheriff Douglass in Nevada County was George Winters, a former Yolo boy, Twenty, years ago young Winters lived with his stepfather, Theodore Winters; the well-known horse-breeder and millionaire, on the latter's magnificent estate near the town of Winters, which was named in his honor. As a boy he was continually

committing mischief of all kinds. He was educated in the common schools, and when Theodore Winters moved to Nevada he placed his sonin charge of one of his stockranches. A prominent resident of this city who resided in Nevada in the eighties is quite familiar with. George Winters’ career in the ‘ablé:reputation. He was reckless and daring. In boundary disputes he showed no mercy to settlers. An old man located’ on” a section of land adjoining Winters’ ranch, and his land was so located that the Winters were compelled to drive stock across it to finally forbade them crossing his land. In short time he was killed. It was charged that young Winters employed cowboys to murder him. Winters was arrested, but discharged, as the evidence was not sufficient to convict, It is said that one of the men who killed the settler: confessed a few years ago, and said he was hired to commit the deed .by Winters. Winters continued incharge of the ranches until a few ago, when he came to California, and his acquaintances heard nothof him until the killing by Sheriff Douglass was received. He is described as havingbeen a remarkablyfinelooking man when he was young. ‘<A DESERVED TRIBUTE. A State Official’s Letter About Da: vid F.
