The victim in this case was George Muth, a young German, who had lived some years in the vicinity, and was generally liked and respected. He was killed by Henry Ploeger, also a German, who lived usually in San Francisco, but for some years, during part of each season, had been engaged in hay -pressing, and had been so employed in San Pablo at the time of the slaying. He had, some time back, it is said, sold a hay press to Muth, and was displeased with him because he had engaged in business riva...lry with him. On Sun day, August 10th, both parties were at the village, and both had been drink ing, though it was a very unusual thing for Muth to do so. Ploeger had made threats against Muth, and the latter, just as Ploeger was about to mount his horse, crossed from the opposite side of the road and laid his hand on his, Ploeger's, shoulder, asking him : " what he was threatening him for ? " or, " what had he against him ? " or some question of such purport. Ploeger instantly drew his pistol and shot him through the heart, killing him almost instantly.
