PREPARED T9 DIE FIGHTING | AUBE'S GUNS LANDED AND SHE WAS TO BE SUNK. Arrival of the Transport Ohio From Manila With Sick Soldiers. Rough Passage of the J Cleone. There were scenes of wild excitement in Tahiti when the French mail boat City of Papeete sailed for San Francisco. A mail steamer from New Zealand had ar- rived with the news that war might be declared at any minute between France and England, and the inhabitants of Pa-~ | peete did not know but that an English man-of-war might arrive at any minute from Australia. They fully expected to be beaten, but it was their firm determi- natfor to die fighting. There are about 200 regulars on Tahitl |and about 400 able-bodied men were | pressed into service. These were all | glven three months’ rations and stationed | in the valley of Fatahua to hold the fort | until reinforcements arrived from France, | Acting under instructions from Governor | Gailled, the guns and ammunition wers | taken out of the armed transport Aube | and the vessel got ready for scuttling at | a moment’s notice. The Aube carried four guns. These were mounted on the hills | overlooking the harbor, and in the hands of experienced gunners were expected to do good service. The Aube is 1550 tons displacement, 210 feet long, 34 feet 5 inches broad and 15 feet deep. She was to be sunk across the en- trance to the harbor. A large quantity of powder was to be sunk with her and | this was to be connected with a battery | ashore. With this, if the British war- ships only came quickly enough, it was hoped to do some damage. “When we sailed,” said Lunn yesterday, ‘‘the people hiti were. satisfied that war had been declared and that the Aus- | tralian squadron would make a de- scent on_the French possessions in the acific. I suppose they know by this time | that the war cloud has blown over, but while it lasted the suspense must have been very great. The Frenchmen would | have died fighting. 1t would look like folly to oppose an armored cruiser, but | they were determined to do it, and the | Aube would have been sunk and the val- ley defended to the last had the worst come to the worst.” The City of Papeete was thirty-two days coming here from Tahiti, She brings a cargo of copra, coeoanuts, pearishell and vanilla beans. She brings the news that the Polyneslan Steamship Company organized in New Zealand to trade among the South Sea islands will get no trade or passengers at Tahitl. Word was re- ceived from Paris to have nothing to do with it, as a French line would shortly be in operation. The only passenger by the barkentine was Mr. Atwater, ex-United | States Consul to Tahiti. He also expected | 'to hear on his arrival that France and | England were fighting, and was agree- | ably surprised to learn that such was not | the case. 5 The United States transport Ohio ar- rived from Manila via Nagasakiiyester- day, after a passage of twenty-nine'days. She brought up 234 soldiers, ‘distributed as follows: Nebraska 184, Pennsylvania 30, California 15, Oregon 15, Michigan' 3, Colorado 3, South Dakota 3, and five in- valids. The following came up as passen- gers: Lieutenant J. A. Barbour, U. 8. A. ‘W. W. Bill, Colonel J. H. Frederick, Cap- tain_Vickers, V. Lady, L..A.~Crowther, R. Kibble, Lieutenant B.

Complaining Witness Got His Money Back and Left the City. “Dink” Wilson, the ex-convict and bun- ko man, arrested Sunday for grand lar- ceny, will in all probability escape pun- ishment, as the rest of the gang has suc- ceeded in getting the complaining witness, George Kays, a discharged soldier from Manila, out of the city. The case was called in Judge Mogan's court yesterday and Wilson's attorney as- sured the court that he was ready to go on. Detective Egan sald that he had been { informed by Hugh Curran, proprietor of the Golden Eagle Hotel, on Broadway, where Kays had been living, that Kays had got back his $300 and had left for his home in Idaho by Sunday night's train. He asked for a continuance until it could be determined what could be done. The Judge granted a continuance until to-morrow and at the request of Attor- | ney Mack for the defendant fixed his bail at $500 thinking that it would pre- from getting out of prison. But he was mistaken, as Mack appeared in a few minutes at the prison and de- osited $500 and “Dink’’ was released. As udge Mogan gave him five days to leave the city Friday the chances are that the grand larceny charge will be dismissed and a detective will be detailed to see him off on the train. —— Exceeded Its Authority. An action is pending in the Superior Court between Paul J. Stuparich as plain- tiff and Joseph Gassman as defendant for dissolution of a copartnership known as the Stuparich Manufacturing Company. A receiver was appointed by the court. Gassman claimed certain property as be- longing to the partnership, and the court appointed a receiver to take possession of | the same. Stuparich, who was in posses- | slon of the property, asked for a stay of f)mceedfings. claiming that the property n question was personal. The court' re- fused to grant a gtay and the matter was taken to the Supreme Court in the form of a writ of prohibition. The writ was granted, the Justices holding that “a per- son in possession of personal property un- der a claim of ownership cannot be sum- marily deprived thereof by an order of court based upon the affidavits of an adverse. claimant, but he has the right to'have his title determined in an appro- priate action by the verdict of a jury or the findings of a court upon issues framed for that purpose.” —_———— Estates in Probate. The will of Samuel H. Brodie, who died |in Charleston, South .Carolina, on the 12th inst., leaving an estate situated in this city valued at $80,000, was filed for probate yesterday. Deceased beqeathed $1000 to Daniel Rogers, a friend: $2000 to George A. Harris of this city, and directs that the residue of his estate shall be di- vided, share and share alike, among Rob- ert L. and Basil M. Brodle, brothers, and Jane A. Gault, Eliza M. and Caroliné Bro- die, sisters of the testator. The will of Samuel Morton, who died in October, 1898, bequeaths an ‘estate val- ued-at $10,000 to Fredericka Morton, widow of the deceased. —— e W. A.

They are here, also, alas, | to collect evidence against one of their own brothers of the cloth, Major Moore, who is accused by three or four of his own typewriters of conduct during office | hours unbecoming a good Christiar and | a prudent public official. | | Agents Linck and Smith have held their'| sessions with closed doors in the office of | Surveyor Spear. What has taken place | within those closed precincts has been | known only to themselves, the five wit- nesses which they have examined, and E. Percivale Baker, the talented male sten- ographer of Collector Jackson. Yester- day a prepossessing young lady stenogra- pher was added to Mr. Baker to assist in doing the work. She is not one of the| witnesses against the gallant major, | whose fault seems to have been the selec- tion of office hours and a Government of- fice as the time and place for the declara- tion of his amorous passion.

This other let- ter was one on business, whereas the let- ter seized by Gavan contained by ques- tion and answer instructions for Chinese | emigrants. Meredith's purpose was so plain that Gavan bluntly asked him wheth- | er he wanted him to say that the wrong letter was the right one, and Meredith did not re) After Gavan's story had been published in The Call Meredith called | Gavan before him and was curious to | know how The Call had secured the news, | Gavan said he had mistaken The Call re- porter for a special agent of the treasury and told him the truth without reserve.

He thought it strange, but he | did not know the history of the Chinese | Bureau under the Wise and Meredith | regime. | Mrs. Johnson, landlady of the Colonial, | was a witness against the warm-blooded | Moore. She told how Moore had taken apartments in her aristocratic hotel, and how he had also lodged a good-looking young lady there. All the witnesses agree | that the major had good taste in the mat- | ter of beauty, except, perhaps, In the case of his last typewriter, but she would not | listen to his addresses and proved to be | his undoing. Mrs. Johnson told how she | had been under the disagreeable necessitv | of ordering the major and his lady friend | to vacate the house for the sake of fts | good name, because of reports that the | major walked in his sleep or something of that kind. The strongest witness Bgalnsl Meredith came to the front vesterday in the per- son of Miss Donaldino Cameron, matron | of the Chinese Presbyterian Mission. Miss Cameron told the agents how she had in- | formed Chief Meredith of the true charac- | ter of Fong Suey Wan, the Chinese slave | dealer, when Fong Suey was under arrest | | at the Misslon. he also repudiated ex- Collector Wise's statement made in Wash- | ington that she and Major Moore and | Assistant United States Attorney Bert | Schlessinger had asked that Fong Suey be | released. They had asked that one of the witnesses against Fong Suey should be | allowed to go back to China, because this | witne: a Chinese woman, had only hear- say evidence to offer, and her testimony | would not be recelved in court for reason.
