RANK HANOVER GAINS FREEDOM |Charge of Bribery Is| Dismissed. TIME PROVES HIS FRIEND 15 it STATUTE OF LIMITATION PRE- VENTS THE TRIAL. e Gregory Faction in Round Valley De- clares That It Is in Possession of Positive Proof of His Guilt. — Special Dispatch to The Call. COVELO, Aug. 12.—Frank Hanover, the alleged perjurer and briber in the trial of the Littlefleld lynchers, was dis- charged this morning on motion of the prosecution on the ground that the action was barred by the statute of limitation. Vigorous protestations by the defense were overruled and Hano- ver was dismissed. The friends of Gregory, now serving a twenty’ and declare that but for the bar of lim- itation Hanover would be held to an- swer to the charge of bribery. The affi- davits in the hands of Brophy are, they insist, strong proof of the guilt of Han- over. In the affidavits of George, Grant and John Cooper and May Cooper, sworn to before Justice of the Peace Snelling of Paskenta, Tehama County, it is declared that Hanover offered them $40 to swear against Gregory. Robert Henecker of 117 Steuart street, San Francisco, deposes that he heard Hanover attempting to bribe a certain person in Covelo. The person's name is purposely withheld, as his testimony will be used in the coming trial of Hay- den and Radcliffe. E. G. Reed, an attorney of promi- nence and now residing at Redding, is charged with having attempted to suborn the perjured testimony of sev- eral witnesses, assuring them that if they would give the kind of evidence wanted by Deputy Attorney General Post all the men would be cleared, ex- cepting Gregory and Crow. Reed was the attorney for Van Horn and Crow at the first trial. Former Deputy Sheriff Box of Trin- ity County is another man that is ac- cused in a number of affidavits as hav- ing bribed witnesses. Vigorous efforts will be made by the faction to have the Hanover affidavits admitted in the coming trial of Radcliffe and Hayden. GENERAL SEAMANS INDULGES IN POLITICS Prison Directors Read a Letter From the National Guardsman to ‘Warden Aguirre. SAN QUENTIN PRISON, Aug. 12.— | W. H. Seamans, adjutant general of the | National Guard, is not averse to doing a little politics, even in his official ca- pacity, a fact from him to Warden Aguirre, was read at to-day's session of Board of State Prison Directors. which the The | letter afforded the board a good deal of amusement. The Warden deems it expedient to purchase a Gatling gun for the new guard post to be erected in place of the old liberty post, and with that end in view has been in communication Finding it necessary to wait some time before a Gatling gun could be purchased, Aguirre wrote to Adjutant yeneral Seamans, and asked if the National Guard could not loan one to the prison authorities until a new gun could be bought. In response, Seamans stated in his official capacity, that he would He invited Aguirre to call upon him for a favor at any time, and in conclusion sai “By the way, do_ you think you could find a place down there for an ex-Union soldier—an honest, able-bod- ied man, competent to meet all require- ments? I would like to hear from you as soon as convenient.” The board decided to put two bath- | houses in the prison yard at a cost of | $1000. Leon Dennery appeared before the board and asked for a parole for Her- man Cohen, who has one and a half years to serve on a six-year sentence for an assault to murder in San Fran- cisco. Action was postponed untfl the next meeting. — OBJECT TO LADY CHURCHILL’S ENGAGEMENT | Friends of Both Families Using In- | fluence to Have It Broken. LONDON, Aug. 12.—The engagement |of Lady Randolph Churchill to young Lieutenant L. G. M. Cornwallis-West, brother of the Princess of Pless, meeting with the most violent opposi- tion. The Marlborough family is quite furious at her, while Lieutenant Corn- wallis-West’s family is denying the en- gagement everywhere and has cut Lady Randolph Churchill dead. All influence is being brought to bear in the matter. The Prince of Wales even went to s the Cornwallis-Wests, , especially to talk it over, and he also spoke to Lady Randolph Churchill on the subject. But, nevertheless, the engagement has not vet been broken off. Southern Pacific Loses. SANTA BARBARA, Aug. 12.—The sec- ond condemnation suit of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company against C. T.

SANTA BARBAR. Aug. 12—The trial of Lady Fran Broome was called to-day and at 6 o'clock to-night | the last of the twelve jurors was sworn. Lady Broome is charged with having resisted and interfered with an officer | in the discharge of his duty. Ear | last April the City Council ordered the City Marshal to remove a hedge, which, according to the survey of the City Sur- veyor, was in the street, and which | Mrs. Broome insisted was on her prop- erty, according to an older survey. This hedge Lady Broome had refused to remove, nor would she allow, any | one else to remove it, threatening to carry the contest to the United States | courts, which right she had as a Brit- | ish subject. | On April 13 the Marshal and several | deputies went to the place and | proceeded to remove the obstruc- tions. Lady Broome and her gardener, |a Spaniard named Valenzula, stood | guard, ready to offer resistance. She ordered them off her property, and when they refused to move she picked up a pickax and struck Walter Rich- ardson, a deputy, and then made a rush | at Marshal Martin, striking him also. | She and her gardener were put under | arrest and taken to the City Jail. Bail was offered her, but she refused to take it or to consult an attorney. She was locked in the tanks for a few hours and finally was allowed to go on her own recognizance. She refused to pro- cure counsel until this trial. Judge Crowley of San Francisco is defending her. She maintained that all the local attorneys were prejudiced against her. She was accompanied in court to-day by Ellwood Cooper. INTERESTS THE COAST.

DIET READY FOR THE CANAL BILL The Government Party Hopes It Wiil Pass. P WITH ekl FRICTION HUNGARY OBJECTION TO THE GROWING; SLAVONIC ASCENDENCY. e Relations Between Germany and France Are Steadily Growing More Pleasant—Storms in East Prussia. S e A Copyrighted, 1899, by the Associated Press. BERLIN, Aug. 12—The Diet reas- sembles on August 16. Prince Von Ho- henlohe, the Imperial Chancellor, and Dr. Von Miquel, Vice President of the Council and Minister of Finance, will return to attend the sessions, which will decide the fate of the canal bill, and will throw the combined weight of their influence in favor of the measure. The Government hopes the bill will pass by a sufficient majority, especially since Emperor William took occasion at the opening of the Dortmund-Ems canal to emphasize again the great need of such a new network of com- munication. The ceremonies at the opening of the canal yesterday were quite imposing, and were intended to mark the importance of the new water- The canal is 270 kilometers long, over 8 feet deep and 95 feet wide at the | It top and 57 feet wide at the bottom. will enable vessels of 900 tons to go di- rect from the Baltic, Bremen and Ham- burg to the new Dortmund harbor, where they can discharge their cargoes 150 kilometers inland. Germany’'s relations with Austria- Hungary are the theme of much news- paper comment this week. that Prince Von Hohenlohe, contrary to custom, since he became Chancellor, | met Count Goluchowski has - not - Foreign Minister, Austro-Hungarian this year to talk over the “'policy of the | two empires,” and the further fact that Emperor Francis Joseph in passin through Aussee did not find time to get off the train to welcome the German Chancellor, but contented himself with hurriedly greeting the Chancellor from the car and chatted with him onl seven minutes, are regarded in political circles as proof that the relations be- tween Germany and Austria-Hungary, despite the continuing of the nominal | alliance, have ceased to be really inti- | mate. Newspaper comment and popular feeling throughout Germany have been | for some time most bitter because of the growing Slavic ascendency in Aus- | tria-Hungary. It is asserted that Em- peror Wi the persecuti n of the German element has become part of the settled system. | @ A large and influential portion of the press this week has reiterated these sentiments, and the Government organs do not confirm or deny the foregoing statements. Several facts have com to the surface which tend in the dir tion indicated. Thus, the Government has forbidden the stay, and especially in the frontier dis tricts, of Czec and other Austrian Slavs. The against this measure. The Saxon M istry of the Interior has issued a dec that all communications sent to Hun- gary must bear only the German names of the towns to which they are sent. To this the Hungarian press strongly demurs, and is also much stirred iip over the sending of Emperor William's court chaplain, Rogge, to unveil the German monument at Hermannstadt. The ceremony is regarded as a protest against the Magyarization movement in Hungary. Samoa is still occupying of attention, and the pres: comment, the bulk of however, being directed against Eng- land. The mouthpiece of the agrarians, the Deutsche Tages Zeitung, in a bitter editorial charges both England and the United States with showing systematic animosity toward Germany in the Sa- moan muddle from beginning to end; attacks the Foreign Office for yielding every point to these powers, and says it would have been wiser to renew from the start all claims to Samoa and to have ingisted upon equtvalents else- where. The Cologne Gazette, however, in an inspired article, ridicules the no- tion that Germany is making enemles of all the power ver trifling diffe ences. The paper claims that the agrar- i tir up trouble with the United in order to render impossible the conclusion of comme: 1 treaties, and this for their own selfish ends. From semi-official reports it appears that the German claims for property destroyed in Samoa during the troubles are not nearly lieved, namely 000 marks. The recent utterances of Baron von Stengel of the Munich University, who was second in rank in Germany's dele- gation at the peace conference regard- ing The Hague gathering, are almost unanimously disapproved in_Germany. The National Zeitung says Baron von Stengel's private views are his own and must not be confounded with the views of the Government. The sending of delegates and models to the Philadelphia exhibitlon has been discussed warmly in the press this week. A fhumber of chambers of com- merce of the Rhenish provinces, Brandenburg and Saxony decline to participate, as have also a number of prominent merchants. The argument mostly is that participation means the fostering of American competition. The Government, however, takes a differ- ent view and has taken pains to make it public. The Liberal press mostly as- sumes a friendly attitude. The elevation of Count von Munster- Ledenburg, the German Embassador to France von der Herburg, is attributed gener- ally to his patient and successful en- dcavors to render the relations between Germany and France gradually more pieasant. Most of the papers approve of the award. The Vorwaerts alone says the time for the promotion was good deal is full of unhappily chosen, since it comes in the midst of the Dreyfus trial, and the anti-revisionist press will will make it the occasion of new Chauvinistic ecalumnies and charges and the even-tenor of justic may there- by be impeded. A clear sign of the im- proved Franco-German relations is found in the fact that the committee of German and French army officers is now engaged in the geodetical meas- urements of the frontier for the pur- pose of bringing the official measure- ment of both countries into complete accord. A duel between two officers of the Tenth Uhlan Regiment, Count Solms and Count Shulenberg, was fought this week near Konitz, Prussia. Count Solms was mortally shot in the abdo- men. The motive for the duel was Jealousy. Both the participants were among the Emperor’s favorites.
