4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, MARCH 7, 1896. PROBING THE CARSON STEAL, Recovery of a Record-Book Long Missing in the Mint. ADMITTED IN EVIDENCE Supplies the Proof That Jones, and Not Zabriskie, Was in Active Charge, HIRSCH HARRIS TESTIFIES. How the Shortage Was Discovered and His Predecessor Placed Under Suspicion. CARSON, Nev.,, March 6.—The long- issing record book of tags in the Carson " und last night in the cupel it had been placea for safe- e Pierce regi This n the trial of John v with James Heney, aving stolen bullion to the ¥ from the mint. on tags from July av, 1504, were placed in evidence ¢ that Jones was in active charge of ryjduring Z cie's term. The e read to the jury, and were either ea “John T. Jones” or *Zabriskie, per hompson’; mnone were signed by briskie. Melter and Refiner Hirsch Harris to-day tied that he was appointed on June 1, and received the keys on June 8. spurious melt was passed in to him in the 1594 settlement as containing 1143.635 ounces of gold {8214 fine. The weight of the spurious bar was exactly the same as the original Bodie melt. Jones iskie were both present, and Jones 18 checked off the spurious bar with the rest n they had a settlement. “When the granulations were being made,” said Harris, *'I suggested to Jones that they be assayed, but he said granula- yed because two 2 ht er ten points. If ose granulations had been assayed the rtage would bave been detected at once. When Mason got here he began checl e bars. When he reached the settlem melts he began assaying. The bogus bullion had the right number, corresponding with the records, and the right weight, but instead of 482 ounces of gold it contained only 1424 ounces, a loss of $20,000.” The records show that bar 164 was re- ceived on November 9, 1892. No. 77 had been stamped on the bar, but as it fell below the required fineness, in gold a few | with a cold the points the 77 was cancele chisel and No. 164, the amount of silver purchase, was placed there. bar in evidence the 77 was not canceled, which proved that the persons who did it neglected to place the same marks on it that had been there originally. “I investigated the metal in the mint,” Harris continued, “and found there was a shortage of 4060 ounces of gold, in value over $75,000. ficiency, and he said not to mind that, as I would find 1tin the slums. When I got the slum returns I saw I did not bave enough and asked for a clean-up. Jones told me that my figures were wron g, that such a shortage was impossible. metal did not come up to its pretended value, as stamped on the bars. There must have been §20,000 less in the bars than was claimed. I tried to trace the consolidation melts, but could not, as therecord is broken. No. 7 was made in December, 1892. The hand- writing is that of John T. Jones. The records do not show consolidations 8, 9, 10 and 11, but 12 is there. The recerds had been mutilated by tearing out the leaves.” The first loss Harris had noticed was of 1500 ounces of gold out of a melt of 3000 ounces. Other losses came rapidly on the heels of this, and he finally ordered a clean-un. It was possible that the deposit- room molds were used'to make the bogus melt. FOR KILLING TWO MEN, H. F. Yokum Held for Trial for a Double Shooting at Centerville. A Talesman Causes Merriment by a Denunciation of Self- Defense. OROVILLE, Car., March 6.—The trial of H. F. Yokum, charged with the mur- der of Albert Mason and Frank Ballew &t Centerviile on December 14 last, began to-day in the Superior Court. A jury was secured and the case went over until to-morrow. An amusing 1ncident occurred this morning during the examination of Talesman N. Woodward of Chico. He was asked if he had any conscientious scruples against bringing in a verdict of guilty of murder if the evidence justified. He answered that personally he had, but if the law made it out that a man was guilty he would have to bring in such a verdict. He was asked if he believed in self-defense. He answered that he did not. One of the attorneys for the defense then said to the juror: “If a man attempted to shoot you and you could prevent it by killing him, would you do it or would you allow yourself to be shot?"” The court and the spectators broke fnto & roar of laughter when the answer came: “T would allow myself to be shot.” The killing of Ballew and Mason oc- curred in front of Yokum’s dwelling. The accused man claims that the pair had sought bim out with the avowed intention of killing him. They had quarreled over some wood-chopping on land owned by Yokum. The shooting- was witnessed by the wife of Yokum and Allen Boydstun of Chico. Boydstun states that Yokum and him- self had been hunting squirrels and had just returned home when Ballew and Mason came to Yokum’s house. Yokum invited them to come in, but they refused, requesting him to come out into the yard. { | | The | d | On the | I spoke to Jones of the de- | The | | Ballew said, “We nave come here to do you up,” and with that he placed his hand upon his hip pocket. Yokum immediately raised his shotgun and fired, first at Ballew and then at Ma- | son. He then dropped the shotgun, caught | up arifle and fired two more shots at Ma- | son. The body of Ballew was found about | 100 yards from Yokum’s house. Mason | walked about an eighth of a miletoa | neighbor’s house. He was fatally wounded, | baving received one charge from the shot- | gun and two from the rifle and died the | following morning. | THE COAST. | Additional Pensions Granted in Califor- nia, Oregon and Washington.

CHICAGO, IrL., March 6.—The Univer- sity of California has challenged the Uni- versity of Chicago to a dual track and field athletic meeting some time in June | or earlier. The challenge was received | yesterday, but if Stagg, does not change | his mind in the next twenty-four hours the challenge will be declined. The Cali- fornia athletes proposed to hold the dual contest immediately before or after the ‘Western intercollegiate championship | meeting. Stagg, however, thinks that the armory, the triangular, the Illinois and Western meets are enough for the candi- dates, and this is one reason why he will decline to meet the far Western men. Professor Stagg has great respect for the Calif ornians as athletes and thinks that with _proper training the Pacific Coast should turn out the best athletes in the world. *I was surprised,” he said, “at | the magnificent specimens I saw out there | a year ago. There is none like them in | this country. The reason I attribute mainly to the climate and the country in general. Without any inconvenience whatever they can exercise outdoors the | year round, and this will develop the body f to a aeggee impossible to attainina gym- | nasium. When we are ready to begin to | train in the open air they are already well seasoned and_prepared to commence op- Ieratiuns. We should be glad to meet | them, but have too much on our hands { now, and, besides. the guarantee they ask | is exorbitant.” PR Harry Wheeler, the Wheelman. NEW YORK, N. Y., March 6.—The professional ranks in cycling will be augmented this season by Harry Wheeler, who has decided not to goabroad. ‘Within a fortnight Wheeler will go to Savannah to train for the early races. It was stated to-day on very food authority that the great “Zim” would very likely be seen on the path in this country during the coming season. el Ogden Co-Operative Store Closed.

ENGINES 10 PLY ~ ON TAMALPAIS First Locomotive for the Mountain Railway Arrives. ANOTHER BEING BUILT. Construction Forces of the Scenic Road Are Making Rapid Progress. SUFFERING AT THE CAMP. Laborers Complain of the Treatment They Receive—Plaint of an Ex-Foreman. MILL VALLEY, Carn, March 6.— Wednesday marked an important epoch in the history of the Mill Valley and Mount Tamalpais Scenic Railway. The | first engine to be used on the mountain road arrived here and was transferred from one of the flatcars of the North Pa- cific Railroad to an improvised track on the O’Shaughnessy block near Eastland. The engine is one of the latest pattern and was manufactured in the East by the Lima company. It isof peculiar construc- tion and specially adapted to mountain climbing. All the machinery is upon one side, while the boiler rests upon the other side. The engine weighs twenty tons and is the property of a lumber company which loaned it to the Mill Valley and Mount Tamalpais Scenic Railway until the 1st of May, when another and larger locomotive will be sent to Mill Valley in its place. Secretary Louis L. Janes of the moun- tain road company to-day said that the engine which arrived on Wednesday was to be used during the construction of the road. When itis completed a thirty-ton engine, which has already been ordered and is now being built, will arrive.. “The new engine,”’ said Mr. Janes, “will be capable of traveling at the rate of twelve miles an hour, which, owing to its peculiar construction, is considered quitea good rate. The locomotive is not built for speed, but it has enormous power and could easily haul three or four crowded cars over the route of the mountain road if it should become necessary to accommo- date such a crowd. “We are pushing work along as rapidly as possible. Already the ties for over a mile of the road have arrived and we ex- pect the rails almost any day. Assoon as they get here the road from Mill Valley to Blythedale will be constructed, and the enzine which arrived this week will be used to carry the rails and ties up to the men at work on the mountain.”” When the engine arrived almost the entire population of Mill Valley turned out to see it. After it had been removed from the flatear to the improvised irack a house was built around it. President J. B. Stetson of the North Pacific Coast Railroad was here this week, and arrangements were made by which the railroad and the mountain road will build one large depot at Eastland, the right-hand side to be used by the moun- tain road and the other side by the North Pacific Coast road. A large freight-shed will also be built. The Tamalpais mountain road will be | propelled by electricity, and the engine purchased from the Lima company will be used only in case of crowds. Two cars —double-enders—will soon be built and work on the power-house is shortly to be commenced. The railroad will lay a third rail as far as the proposed power-house, so as to have the freight and machinery with- out loss of time. The bitter cold of the last few days has told upon the workmen employed by the Caiifornia Construction Company. The roof of their quarters on the mountain has leaked and the water soaked their bed- covers. The cold has been most intense on the mountain and the trails have been covered with ice and dangerously slippery. Yesterday a foreman left the company’s employ. When he went to get his pay he was offered $4, which he refused to accept. He said he had been working for the com- pany for nineteen days in the position of foreman. When he resigned he was in. formed that 10 per cent of his wages would be deducted on account of his leaving be- fore the month was up. Not only was this 10 per cent deducted, but 10 per cent was added for every article he had pur- chased from the store of the construction company during this time. When the paymaster finished his figuring the ex- foreman was informed that just $4 was due him. POMONA'S FATAL AFFRAY Robert M. Sebastian Stabbed to Death by His Brother- in-Law. Forced Into a Scuffle by %he Mut- derer, Who Was Intoxicated and Quarrelsome. POMONA, Car., March 6.—Robert M. Sebastian was stabbed to death at his home in the west part of the city this evening by his brother-in-law, Matthew McGinnis. The latter had been drinking and was ugly, and provoked a quarrel. He got into a scuffle with Sebastian and stabbed him with a penknife in the groin, penetrating the main artery. The wounded man ran out of the house and across the street, where he fell and bled to death within five minutes. Officers were notified, and the murderer is in jail. Mrs. Bebastian had run out of the house and hailed a deputy constable from Spadra, telling him the men were quarrel- ing inside. Instead of going in to stop the fight, he came on to Pomona and notifiea the local officers. The friends of the mur- lered man are greatly indignant at the officer's cowardice. i e \CHEAP LIGHT FOR FRESNO.: Another Illustration of What Competi- g tion;Can Do. FRESNO, Can., March 6.—The new electric-power company from the San Joaguin River and the old company, which has been in business here for years, last night bid against each other for light- ing this city. The result was that the city | will ‘be lighted for a tnird or less of what it has cgut heretoforc. Two thousand candle-power lamps, to burn all night, will cost $6 45 a month each. This was the new company’s bid, while the old company’s was $6 95. The same Jamyps to burn till 1 A, ., were $4 95 a month by the old company, and will be $5 45 by tire new. The contract has not yet been let. e SILVER BRICKS FOUND. Discovery by Children in the Mountains Near Maricopa. 3 MARICOPA, Ariz.. March 6.—A ngex:- can has brought in two bricks of silver which he claims were found by children in the mountains two or three miles south of this junction., There are good reasons for supposing that there are plenty more to come, although the finder denies that he has more. The bricks have the appear-,| ance of age and whence they originally came from is an entire mystery. They are probably worth $50 to $60 each and may have been hidden plunder from some robbery long gone by. The bars are now in the safe of Williams Bros. of the Junc- tion Hotel here. ——— NECESS1TY OF FEDERATION. Urged at a Mecting of Premiers of Aus- tralian Colonies. SYDNEY, N. 8. W., March 6.—A con- ference of the Prime Ministers of the sev- eral Australian colonies was held here yesterday. A series of resolutions were adopted affirming the urgent necessity of federation, in which direction the enabling bill was a material step, and the desira- bility of amending the military laws in the direction of uniformity. e resolu- tions also declared in favor of the estab- lishment of - a cordite factory in Australia, and other measures of defense. The conference decided that it was de- the restriction of Chinese immigration to all colored races. P stoge o Caused a Woman’s Death. KANSAS CITY, Mo., March 6.—Dr. E. J.

Y., March 6.—General of the girls to possess a French library. There are about 150 girls in the French class and there is not a single book in the library for those who are studious enough to want to get acquainted with French classics. Miss Narjot Howard, the in- structor in French, suggested that the girls should get up an entertainment to raise a French book fund, and she threw off the suggestion, without much hope that it would be taken up, that if there were any mute, inglorious Molieres or Racines among the students the time had arrived to_be heard from. Miss Mattie Ijams, a 16-year-old maiden, took tbis hint au grand serieux, and with- out making any fuss about 1t she set to work to write a French play. She had not any particular.passion for the theater, but she loved the study of French and did not consider it any hardship to thumb the dictionary to rags to seek out words that rhyme. The first surprise to the instructors who “The King Is Dead! Long Live the -King!” William Sparrow, Suce2ssor of the Dead King of the Gypsies. the Youthful gypsy king, has, by tacit consent, as- sumed control of the camp. 4 He was directing all matters pertaining to the coming funeral yesterday, and in these preparations all the dwellers in the tented village deferred to him. He is not the eidest son living at the camp. The eldest is 8 man in delicate health and for that reason not desirous of assuming the responsibilities of the sta- tion. William, the next in age, is a stal- wart, handsome youth of less than 25 years. He isa modest young man, who is more conscious of the cares than the honors of his station. i The sound of mourning was heard in the camp on Fifteenth street all day. The widow, who still shows traces of the youthful beauty that took the English sailor captive forty years ago, is especially "stricken by the loss. The funeral service will take place at the camp to-morrow at 1». M. Rev. Wil- liam A. Breck, the assistant rector of St. John the Evangelist’s Church, will offici- ate. The interment will take place at Odd Fellows’ Cemetery, The voung king will transfer the camp to another fiocamy in the vicinity soon after the funeral. Around the World on Wheels. POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., March 6.— Mr. and Mrs. Pressig, who'are on a jour- ney around the world on bicycles on a wager, arrived at the Nelson House in this city at 6 o’clock last night.

It was found to be not only in good French, but was also' a clever piece of dramatic construction. Miss Ijams called her work by a name that may be freely translated by “Those Plagued Verbs.” The story depicts the persedution and sub- sequent triumph of a charming American girl who is annoyed by a lot_of animated verbs that ere dressed in red and have all the outward and visible appearance of a partv of high-school girls. The verbs have to dance and sing, and as the poetry put into their mouths was found to be clever Mrs. von Meyerinck set it to music and Miss Ijams’ play was ready to be ‘‘staged.” It ‘was at tnis point in the proceedings that the art class began to bestir itself. Under thedirection of Professor Goldstein the members of the art class are trans- forming themselves into scenic artists, illustrators and cartoonists at a rate which is astonishing every one. Very soon the town will be adorned with art cartoons worthy of Beardsly announcing that on April 17 a French play will be given in the auditorium of the Girts’ High School, and wher. that eventful day arrives the audi- ence will find that the scenic artists of the Girls’ High School and the modistes and milliners of the same institution areas able to stage a vlay as Frederick Warde himself.
