ALINAS, Feb. 15.—Antonio Parito, one of ‘the Yaqul tribe of Mexi- can Indians, and supposed to be the oldest inhabitant of Monterey County, as well as of this portion of the State, is dead, nfEer hav- ing lived more than five score years. The exact age of Parito is not known, and even himself was not aware how old he was. When angered, and would reply that he did nof know and did not care, philosophically explain- 'ing that if he did know he would ‘worry and consequently die sooner.

A former real estate firm of San Francisco, the Carnall-Hopkins Com-. pany, now out of business, sold land upon the installment plan to small sal- aried men and women. The firm went through insolvency and the people who had ‘been putting up their small pay- ments for several years lost through the failure. The case which brought these facts to light was that of C. G. Mey groceryman of San Fran- cisco, vs. Francis Doud of Monterey, the owner of the property in question. Meyer sued Doud for possession of the land. From the testimony it seems so. 2 time in 1894 the Carnall-Hopkins Com- | pany bonded a large area of land near Monterey and just adjoining this city, agreeing to pay a large sum, which it hoped to realize by selling the land in town lots to San Franciscans on small payments and light intere: The land | was platted and the purchasers were many. In the case of Meyer he shows receipts for about $1400 paid in. When the owed a balance of about $100. amount he offe for a deed to the property. was not forthcoming, as Doud had re- ceived none of the money on any of the installments, and, in fact, the con- tract with the real estate dealers had | been forfeited. Meyer brought suit in San Francisco, but Doud got a change of venue 'to this court. The case has | been tiied.

Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, Feb. 15.—Ex-President H. Ward Wright continues to be the unding the wrecked Union Savings Bank. For the past couple of days he has been busy repairing some old deeds and ng a few new ones to the few ands of dollars' worth of property ne owns. On its face this action would ook as though he was trying to bene- fit the depositors by turning over all he owns: but there is a “joker” in the Instead, he trying to defeat of his creditor who already obtained judgments against him Wright had two Heeds to his North Fir have To-day ome residence et placed on record. The st W H. Ward Wright to Mary G. ht, his wife. It is dated June s an acknowledsg hookkeeper on Savings Bank, which he states that on that date Wright in- formed him he had made a deed of h! property to his wife. The certificate of W. C. Kennedy, a notary public, also is attached, and shows that Wright ac- knowledged the deed before him on January 30, 1889, This was two days | before the bank failura and shows con- clusively that Wright was preparing for the crash. | A few minutes later a deed was filed | in which H. Ward Wright and his wife | convey the same property to the Union Savings Bank. No consideration is mentioned, but revenue stamps on the | document show it to be $15,000. This last document is dated February 15. On December 20 last Wright had a | deed recorded by which his home was | transferred to G. W. Miller. The i | strument was dated January 2, | and acknowledged December 20, 1898. On the following day a deed, in which | Miller transferred the same property | back to Wright, wznt on record. It was dated January 4, 1897, and ac- knowledged December 21, 1838. As soon as the other directors saw an | account in the papers of Wright deed- | ing his property to Miller they pro- | tested and made Miller reconvey the property to Wright. In Miller's acknowledgment attached | to Wright's deed of the property to his on ¢ George pief actor in the entanglement sur- | wife he says that on June 2, 1898, Wright told him he had deeded the place to his wife. This is a curious state of affairs, for after that time Miller had a deed placed on record in| which he owned the property conveved to Mrs. Wright. About the time Wright conveyed the property to Miller in Jan- uary, 1897, the bank was tottering and | about to collapse. The making of the deed to Miller is believed to have been done to save something from the wreck that was then expected, but which did not come till two years later. The Wright residence has been levied upon on an attachment issued in Tu- lare County to secure the payment of | a $4000 promissory note. The attach- | ment was filed nearly a week ago and | | consequently will hold against these deeds. | On Monday Wright deeded eighty- | two acres of land at Wrights station to the bank, but this was done only | after the property was levied upon to | satisfy a $2000 judgment.

They | have appointed a_committee, consisting | of Dr. Ledyard, J. L. Leiter and J. W. Rea, to look into the matter. The stockholders are opposed to the pres.! ent board of directors settling up the bank's business, and they will, it is said, ask it to resign. This committes will report at a meeting of the stock- holders to be held in about a week. | |DREYFUS CONVICTED ON SECRET EVIDENCE Some of the Documents Concealed From Even the President of France. | LONDON, Feb. 15.—The Paris corre- | spondent of the Daily News says: It turns out that General Mercier, in his| evidencd before the Court of Cassation, | admitted that as Minister of War he | communicated secret documents to the | Dreyfus court-martial sitting | | | | KNOCKED OUT | AMENDMENT TO SUNDRY CIVIL FOR SESSION Fate of Nicaragua Canal HEPBURN'S PLAN DEFEATED | BILL VOTED DOWN. | An Exceedingly Spirited Debate Fol- | lowed by the Decision to Uphold the Ruling of the Chair on House Rules.

The friends of the Nicaragua bill were very confident yes- terday and to-day that they would tri- umph, but after four hours of debate the chair was sustained, 127 to 109.
