Woodward 10 | Twelve deeds conveying property in this county were flled here to-day as a result of the suspension of the County 3ank of this city and of the Bank of Paso Bobles of Paso Robles. Two uf these were from F. D. Frost, cashier and manager of the Bank of Paso Robies, to J. B. Earle, representing the (Qalifornian Bank of San Fran- ; two were from R. E. Jack, cash- fer of the County Bank, to J. B. Earle; ve were from the County Bank to the nglo-California Bank, and three were from the County Bank to J. B. Earle. These deeds were delivered to the rantees about a year ago, indicating that already at that time these institu- tions were making heroic efforts to ke ifloat. ‘As was anticipated the Commercial ank failed to open for business to- day. After a meeting of its directors a written notice, brief but pregnant with significance, was posted on one of the doers, reading: ““Bank closed; will not open.” During the morning and part of the afternoon small groups of people gathered in front of the bank and amused themselves gossiping about the Suspensions and gazing longingly at the drawn blinds, which effectually concealed what was transpiring behind them. Every one took the situation philo- sophically, and while there were many expressions of disappdintment there were few words of blame for the man- agers of the unfortunate bank. It is believed this institution will make as good a showing as the County Bank, as equally responsible people are con- nected with it. Its capital stock is $200,000, divided into 2000 shares of $100 each. Its shareholders and their re- spective holdings are as follows: Shares. | .18 Arthur Baur 2% Lucy Baur. F Sha W. T.

They were promptly and fully accommodated, and by 11 o’clock the run had virtually ceased, after about $10,000 had_been paid over the counter. President J. P.

FAILURE AT TEMPLETON. { Local Bank Suspends in Order to Avoid a Run Upon It. | TEMPLETON, March 13.—The Bank of Templeton failed to open its doors this morning. There was posted on its doors a notice as follows: Owing to the suspension of several | banks with which we are connected the board of directors have decided to sus- | pend business temporarily. | A. P. SEEMAN, Cashler. The bank has always been in good condition, but the prospects of two dry years in this region and the collapse of other banks in_the county caused this one to close. The officers of the bank claim all depositors will be paid in full. | | ier Seeman says the bank may re- | open in ten days, but he cannot say | positively. If the bank had opened its doors this morning as usual there would have been a run on it, as many depositors came in from the country to draw out thelr money. All were disap- pouinted when they found the doors closed. The Bank of Templeton was organ- | ized eleven years ago by Willlam | Horstman and son and later was re- | organized with a capital of $25,000. It | had done a good business until the past | two years. Officials claim between $20,000 and $22,000 deposits and $46,000 in notes, real estate, etc. They say every creditor will be paid in full. The officers are: A. F. Horstman, presi- dent; J. Quarnstrom, vice-president; A. P. Seeman, cashier; J. H. Glass and H. Wesel, directors. -—e ONLY A LIGHT RUN.

The Bank of Paso Robles is closely It is reported that the City | connected with the two San Luis Obis- | meeting will | po banks which closed their doors last | consider the advisability of raising the | week. This is because R. E. Jack, one | of the heavy stockholders of the for- | mer, is a stockholder in the latter. Like | the banks at the county seat, the Paso Robles institution has acquired consid- erable real estate which, owing to the lack of rain, has greatly depreciated in value. A gentleman recently from San four years the several banks in the county have come into possession of thousands of acres of farming and grazing lands. In four years over 150 mortgages have been foreclosed and lands sold to satisfy debts of from $5000 to $15,000. In nearly every in- stance the banks bought in the proper-~ ties. ““As the case stands now,” said he, “the banks own nearly the whole of the county. On account of the dry year they are unable to either sell or rent their properties; so there they are— caught in a bad fix, land poor and with not much ready cash. Their case is no means hopeless, for they have pienty of property to secure depositors as soon as the security shall have any value. According to the last statement from the Bank of Paso Robles, made on De- cember 31, the bank is owned by R. E. Jack, H. E. Eppinger and F. D. Frost, who in the report sign themselves as “proprietors. According to their statement to the Bank Commissioners, the bank owns land in San Luis Obispo valued at $10,000, which according to the books cost $7832 19.

Keifer, May 12 Brigadier Generals—Abraham K. Arnold, May 12; Alexander C. M. Pennington, April 12; Simon Snyder, May 12; George M. Randall, April 12; Michael V. Sheridan, May 12; Henry T. Douglas, May 12; Henry V. Boynton, April 12; Chambers McKibben, May 12; Gilbert S. Carpenter, May 12; May 12. The officers named will relieve thelr aids and order them to join their regiments. Brigadler General McKibben will proceed to Columbus post. The other officers exclusively of the volunteer army will proceed to their homes, will join their regiments. 1t should be explained that the reduction in the list of general officers made by to-day's order s not sufficient in itself to meet the de- mands of the existing law. There must be & further cut, in fact the list of major generals and brigadler generals remaining must be re- duced by ten altogether in order to bring the list down to the nineteen permitted by the strength of the regular army. In effecting this reduction it is the intentlon to reduce some of the major generals to the rank of brigadier generals Instead of mustering them out of the service. Also in the case of some of the brig- adier generals yet to be dropped, it will doubt- less be found that instead of being mustered out of the United States service entirely, some of the officers who held lower position in the regular army will return to their former regi- mental and staff places. The major generals who retain their volun- teer commissions at present are Wade, Shafter, Otis, Wilson, Fitzhugh Lee, Wheeler, Bates, Young, Lawton, Chaffee, Anderson, McArthur and Ludlow. The brigadier generals remaining are Frank, changes in the volunteer, general army staff officers at present. Under the law the officers mustered out to-day could be re- tained until the proclamation of peace was is- sued, but the President determined to muster { out all that could be spared. It was found | fmpossible to reduce the force in the pay de- | partment, as the officers are all now employed fh the payment of troops in different stations and in settling accounts for volunteer troops being mustered out. The following list of officers are also mustered out on the 12th of May, except where another date is given, and in such cases the discharge occurs on the date given: | “Assistant adjutants general — Lieutenant Colonels Francis Michaels and Joseph H.

SANTA CRUZ HEROINES IDENTIFY DICKMAN Young Ladies Tell of the Pursuit and Capture of the Burglar. SANTA CRUZ, March 13.—C. H. Dick- man, the burglar who was captured by four young ladies of Santa Cruz, was before Justice Stanley tuis morning for examination and was held to answer be- fore the Superior Court, with bail fixed at §750. The courtroom was crowded, but spectators were disapoointed in not hear- ing Miss Mamie Mirandi, the heroine of the capture, who was absent from the city. | The first witness was Mrs. A. Jennings, who testified she was absent from home on the day of the robbery. During that time her house was entered by way of the front door. From all appearances the lock was pried open with a chisel or othex blunt instrument. Miss Lizzie Mirandl, sister of the hero- ine, said she saw a man, whom she iden- tified as_the prisoner, leave the Jennings home. He was dressed_as he now s, but was clean chaven. He came out of the front gate. She thought he had brok- en into the house and ought to be caught, €0 she ran after him. He started to run at the corner of Barson and Broadway. She kept up with him. This was after her sister had entered the Jennings dwell- “‘fi and confronted the burglar. iss Hattie Fitzsimmons positively identified the prisorsr. She had seen him walk along Campbell street before he en- tered the Jennings house. Later she saw Miss Mirandi pursuing the man and asked in_the chase. Miss Olive Twombly gave similar testi. mony. Charles Fitzsimmons identified the prisoner as the man he captured. e Mrs. flkly Setter.

Yiteutenant, Second Special Dispatch to The Call DOVER, Del, March 13.—After one of the most exciting scenes that has ever been witnessed In the General As- sembly of this State, the session of 1899 ended at 3:06 o'clock this afternoon without electing a United States Sen- ator to succeed Hon. George Gray. It is the first time in the history of the Senate that there is an unquestionable Senatorial vacancy, and owing to the precedent of the upper house of Con- gress in refusing to seat gubernatorial appointees, after the Legislature of a State has had opportunity to elect, the seat of Mr. Gray will remain vacant untll the General Assembly of 1901 shall choose his successor. At the same time the term of Senator Richard R. Kenney will also expire, and it will therefore devolve upon the next Legis- lature to elect two Senators. The final ballot, the fourteenth of the day and the one hundred and thirteenth of the session, was as follows: John Edward Addicks (Union Republican), 21; Colonel Henry A. Dupont (R.), 9; John Biggs (D.), 6; ex-Congressman L. Irving Sandy (D.), 5; ex-Senator George Gray (D.), 4; Willard Sauls- bury (D.), 3; ex-Senator Anthony Hig- gins (R.), 2. The time agreed upon for adjourn- ment sine die was 1 p. m., and when the one hundred and thirteenth ballot was completed it lacked eighteen minutes of that hour by the House clock, which was six minutes slow. The Democrats then adopted filibustering tactics. The filibustering was successful, and with Mr. Rose on the floor, making an ad- dress on the disorder in the room and on other pretended themes, the presid- ing officer brought down his gavel as the clock pointed to the hour of 1. The chamber was in an uproar in an instant, and it was some time before quiet was restored. Democratic mem- bers and regular Republican members, who are opposed to Addicks, cheered Joudly, many of the legislators jump- i‘ng on their desks and waving their ats. High Farm Assessments. WOODLAND, March 13.—Farmers of Yolo County, says Assessor Smith, are demanding a reduction in their assess- ments. They claim—and with much show reason—that farming land is assessed T e e TWO MURDERERS NOW SURRENDER Voluntarily Give Them= selves Up. WERE CHASED FOR YEARS IMPLICATED IN THE KILLING OF COLONEL FOUNTAIN. Indictment of Cattle Thieves in New Mexico Led Up to the Assassina- tion of the Prosecuting Attorney. Special Dispatch to The Call. EL PASO, Texas, March 13.—This morning Oliver M. Lee and James Gil- liland, the alleged murderers of Colonel A. J. Fountain and his eight-year-old son, Henry, boarded a south-bound Santa Fe train at Aleman, N. M., and rode to Las Cruces, where they were met by District Judge Parker and sur- rendered to him. The murder of which the two men are accused is the greatest mystery in the Southwest. Colonel Fountain came to Lincoln, N. M., in 1862. He took an active part in politics on the Republi- can side, and as District Attorney won the lasting hatred of the criminal classes. In January, 1895, he went from Las Cruces to attend court as attorney for the New Mexico Stock Association and secured indictments for cattle stealing against Lee, Gilllland and Mc- New, three men now accused of his murder. Lincoln is about 130 miles northeast of Las Cruces, with no rallroad com- munication, and Fountain started home in a two-horse buckboard with his eight-year-old son Henry. On February 1, about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, he was seen for the last time by a malil carrier between Las Cruces and Lunas Wells. Just before meeting Fountain the mail carrier saw three men riding ahead turn off at his approach. Foun- tain was anxious and asked who they were. He failed to reach home and when the mail carrier arrived at Las Cruces and told his story a posse went out and found the buckboard aban- doned far off the road. There were trails of several horses following and footprints around it. No arrests were made until about a year ago. Then warrants were issued for Lee, Gilliland and McNew. McNew was arrested and held without bail. Lee and Gilliland were warned and fled. Subsequently they fired upon a posse and killed one man. The surrender was prearranged be- tween the fugitives and the authorities, with one condition—that they should not be given into the custody of Sheriff Garrett, who is a bitter personal enemy. The body of Fountain, so far as known positively, was never found, but' it is stated on good authority that it has been secretly in the possession of the authorities for some time past. A skeleton supposed to be that of a little boy was found a few weeks ago, but was removed by unknown parties be- fore the officers reached the spot. Father Vaughn Transferred. ‘WOODLAND, March 13. — Father Vaughn has been transferred to Gr Valley and will leave for his new sta- tion on Tuesday. His departure is pro- foundly regretted.
