AFTER THE GOLD IN FEATHER RIVERS BED Immense Dam Near Oroville Wrecked for Mining Purposes. | Elown Out In Order Thatthe Stream Above It Could Be Worked f>r Metal. Special Dispateh 10 THE CALL. OROVILLE, Nov. The b'owing up rday of big dam in Feather River nown as the Golden Feather dam was e by the owners for mining purposes. he dam raised the river thirty-seven jeet and backed it up two miles, so that it was impessible for the owners to work the | bed of the stream above the dam. In | order that the stream might be lowered it was necessary to bow ou: this dam which was built at an expense of $100,000. Surveyors bezan work to-day on asite for another dam higher up the river, so that when it is completed the bed of the | stream can be worked. Water tor running the hydraulic eleva- tors will be brouzht in by a'big ditch from Bend, and a large force of men wiil be pat at work surveying the site for a reser- voir, the rou e for the ditch and the site for the dam. Itisreported here that the company will expend $250,000 on these projects. The big canal witn its stone wall from the lower dam is now of no use. It cost ge sum and was big enough to carry the whole of Feather River during the summer season. It is stated by those who are posted as to the intentions of the English syndicate that owns the Golden Featker that no less than three dams will be bpilt on the river in order that the bed of the river may be worked for gold. g ey TELEGRAPH LINE TO DAWSON. | Expert Fichardson Reports to the Dominion Government as to Routss.

Clifford Sifton, Minister of the In- terior, who is here on his way back to Ottawa. After an examination of the passes from Dyea and Skaguav he does not favor the proposition to build the line from the head of Lynn Canal, but thinks | that’ the best plan for the Dominion Government woull be 1o extend the present line from Quesncile to Hazleton and thence to Telegraph Creek and so on vig Teslin Lake to Klondike. He thinks that the work of construction will commence early in the spring. Minister 8ifton has not committed him- self to any great extent as to his impres- sions of the working of the regulaiions which he promu gated a few montns ago. but he has inumated that the royalty exacted will not be reduced.

FLANNELLY'S ONE DAY OF LIFE-TAKING Story of Two Murders Told at a Coroner’s Inquest. HOW BRAVE McEVOY WAS SHOT. His Demand That the Parricide Surrender Answered With a Bullet. BATTLE AT NIGHT ON THE DAIRY RANCH. Witnesses Dascribe the Fatal Fight and the Events Leading Up to It. Special Dispatch to THE CALL REDWOOD CITY, Nov. 2. — Coroner James Crowe to-day took evidence before a Coroner’s jarv in the MeEvoy murder case, but failed to complete the investiga- tion, because the wounds of Sheriff Mans- fiela still confined that officer in the Ger- man Hospital in Sin Francisco. After swearing four witnesses and taking their testimony the hearing was continued until next Tuesday eveniny, at 50 o'clock, at which time the investization wiil be com- pleted and a verdict returned. The witnesses were examined at length by District Attorney Walker, who will prosecute Flannelly for the doubie mur- {der of his father and Sheriff McEvoy. They were Edwin Thompson, a barber of tnis place, who accompanied McEvoy to the Flannelly ranch on the nizht of the murder of Patrick Flanneily; Joseph Getsman, a miltker on the Flanneily ranch, who was present on the night in question; Daniel Doyle, ana Frank Miller, a boy wizo had been hired the day before by Thomas Flannelly to drive his milk wagon. The jury before whom the testi-’ mony is taken are: John Hanley, John Culien, George Lovie, P. P. Chamberlain, B. A. Portal, C. H. Offermann, J. Offer- marn, James Swiit, Charles Eikernkotter and George Eikernkotter. Thompson testified that on the night of the 26th of October, shortly after the mur- der of Patrick Fianneily by Thomas Flan- nelly, he and Sheritt McEvoy procured a rig and drove to the ranch of the mur- derer. They knocked on the front door and aroused the milker, who informed’ them that the door was locked and the key gone. They then went to the back door and were admitted. They searched the house and found one bedroom door locked. The stable was examined and the horse recently ridden by the murderer was found in its stall. On again entering the house McEvoy demanded admittance to the room that was locked, but got no answer. By this | time Constable Barton, Under Sheriff McEvoy kuocked on the door and an- [ nonnced himself. He cailed to Tom Fian- | neily and said ue wanted to see him, but got no answer. Thompson was told to go | out and post Butts at the bedroom win- ¢ow. Whiie he was outside the shooting which made Flanneily a double murderer | commenced. Mansheld called to him to ! bring the shotgun. On entering the houss he heard McEvoy say, *“I'm shot.” Mans field took the gun and asked Flannelly if he nad finished shooting, at the sam- time leveling the shotgun. Flannelly’s answer was, “Yes, I'm dead.” Thompeon tuen assisted the wounded Sheriff to the rig and brought him tu town and placed him in the care of phy- | sicians. Mr. McEvoy died on Thursday night after bhaving had his arm ampu- tated. The milkman, Joseph Getsman, testi- fied that he had been working for Flan- nelly for five months prior to the shoot- ing. He was on the ranch on the night of the trazedy. He retired early tnat night, and dia not know wheiher Thomas had gone out or not. While they were at supper Constable Barton served Flannelly with some papers signed by Patrick Flannelly, demanding the possession of the premises. He noticed nothing un- usual in Thomas’ demeanor that evening. He agreed with Thompson as to the visit of the Sueriff that night. He ran away as soon as the shooting commenced and did not return until it was all over. Daniel Doyle testified tbat he was at onetime a partner of Thomas Fiannelly in the milk business, but, having bcen served with notice to pay rent for the ranch, lie determined to dissolve the partnership. | He was present when Coustable Barton served the notice to quit on Flanuelly. Fiannelly became quite angry at the con- stable, but afterward cooled down and actk:d bim to have a_:cup of 1ea. Barton declined and leit. Fiannelly decided to 2o to Redwood City that evening and see his father. Before going ne took his pis- tol from under the pilow, where he usuaily kept it. He saddied his horse and left the ranch. Doyle also left and did not return until after the shooting. The rfle with which Flannelly shot McEvoy belonged to Doyle’s brother and was in Doyle's room in a case when Finnnelly left the ranch for Reawood City. Fiannelly told bim before going that bis father was very foolish to serve those papers on him. He calied him an old fcol. He dia not appear angty at the 1ime. Young Miller testified that Flannelly appeared in the best of spirits at the supper-table up to the time the papers were served upon him. He was laughing and jokine with the rest or them. After- wara te became quieter. Miller retired and was awakened by the shots. He arose and ran from the house and did not return until it was all over.

CARRIE WOULD CAROL, Mrs. Dimond of Honolulu Wants to Grace the Stage L Vocalist. Mrs, Carrie Dimond of elopement fame is once more desirous of appearing before the public. Her idea this time, however, is not to shine as a soubrette or to scin- tillate as a tragedy queen, but to sing pretty fetching ditties of love and ro- mance in abbreviated wallpaper-patterned skirts and a bunch of roses. ‘With this laudable end 1n view Mrs. Di- mond, flanked by her friend, Miss Kate Pu:c:ll, bas been haunting the Orpbenm | of late and turning Manager Morrissey’s day dreams into nightmares.

Active Minority Antagonistic to the Plain-Spoken Divine. Seeks to Rataln the Rev. J. Taompson as Pastor of the Flock. S. Special Dispatch to THE CALL. LOS ANGELES, Nov. 2—The Rev. W. Wendte, who has been called from | Oakland to the pastorate of Unity church here, will not find it all smooth sailing when he arrives. Thers is a considerabie minority—abou: one-third of his flock— which was strongly in favor of the reten- | tion of the Rev. J. 8. Thompson. The | board of trustees firstelected Mr. Wendte, but there was such a protest that the mat- ter was submitted to a vote of the congre- gation. In this contest the Wendte forces mustered fifty-five strony, while the sup- porters of Thompson could show only twenty-two votes. The latter claim, however, that the Wendte majority was obtained by viola- tion of two of the church by-laws. One of these laws is that no member in arrears | shall vote, and the other saysthat mem- | bers shall not vote until they bave been on the churchroll for thirty days. The | Thompson people declare that votes cast | in conirayention of these rules are respon- | sible for the majority for Wendte.

Captain Robb'ns and His €on Re=- cover From an Attack After Weeks of Suffaring. Special Dispatch to THE CALL. TACOMA, Nov. 2—Captain Robbins of the British snip Ancona, now loading wheat here, tells a remarkable story of a well-nigh fatal experience that he under- went at sea several months ago and from the effects of wnich he is still suffering. His .wo mates died at sea, and it re- quired the greatest exertions of himself and his son to escape from the fatal beri- beri, the disease whnich afflicted them. Had they succumbed their ship would have gone ashore on Solomon Islands and its crew been devoured by cannibals. It was last spring, during the Ancona’s last long voyage, that Captain Robbins noticed that his feet and legs were numb, and, a few weeks later, discovered that they were not only without feeling but greatly swollen. Several days afterward, his son, aged 21, made & similar observa- tion, and soon the first and second mates were atiacked. The ship was among the Solomon Islands, in the South Pacific, whither it had been driven ouat of iis course by a hurricane. The captain and his son with difficulty kept on their feet gentleman the fight was not given up. A paper has been circulated among the con- | gregation and a sum sutficient 1o pay Mr. | Thompson’s salary, if he can be retained, | bas been subscriced. An effort was made | to induce Mr. Wendte to resign his claim | to the place, but it was unsuccessful, and | there is a serious split in the church. Mr. Wendte’s ostensible salary is $4000 | per annum, but he remits enough to bring 1tdown to §3400. Tt is said that his Oak- land salary is $3500 and he wanted it to | appear that he was getting a larger salary | | here, | The newspapers here hava all attacked | Mr. Wendie because of his utterances | about the Whittier school, and it will re- | quire some effort on his part to overcome | the unfavorable impression nis Starr King specch has mace upon Southern | California people. | FRATERNAL DEPARTMENT, | Kuights of Honor.

No pain was experienced from the | swollen members, but an excessive lan- guor took possession of the four officers, and while on duty they would without warning drop down again and again. All their vitality was exhausted and with the greatest mental effort did they keep from being prosirated by the peculiar disease. The first and second officers became rap- idly weaker, and in a fortnight after the first symptoms were felt were obliged to abandon duty altogether. The first mate’s thighs became swallen and thirty-five days after his hrst attack he died suadenly. Ten days later the sec- ond mate expired. Both men were buried atsea. Totheend they had suffered no extreme pain which could be located in any particular part of their body, but had simoply lain prostrate, wasting away until their legs were like those of a skeleton. The fatal disease had gradually worked to their vital organs. “Fancy my mental condition,” said Captain RobUins to-day. ‘“‘There we lay in strange waters, surrounded by canni- bals. I saw my mates linger and waste away before meand realizad that both my son and myself were victims of the ~ame disease. If we, oo, died no one would be left ro navigate the ship. The wild, sav- age, nakea natives surrounded the vessel gaily. One day 100 of them floated abont, glaring at us from their canoes. I feit that if we expired the ship would go ashore, be seized by the cannibals and the crew eaten. *With aliaost superhuman effors 1 kept at my post, oiten falling to the deck from sheer exhaustion. I urged my son to exert himself and gradually, aiter three weeks’ more suffering the swelling began to diminish and we partially recovered. When we react.ed Shanghai we both were still suffering and even now my feet are devoid of any sense of feeling most of the time. The physicians say I will recover eventually and that I am not subject to another attack.” Friends of the Forest.
