Lieutenant Miguel Mojeron, who is on the staff of Colonel Juan Hernandesz, | has just arrived at T s on his way to the City of Mexico to deliver import- ant papers and reports on the cam- | paign to General Berrizabol, Secretary of War. Licutenant Mojeron states that there has been no cessation in the movement against the Indians on the part of the Government troops, and that it is the opinion in military circles that the campaign will continue to be pushed vigorously. The large force of Indians | which was located near Torrin has di- | vided into many small bands, and they | have begun a guerrilla warfare. The Indians evade making a determined stand against the troops, but they | from secure positions in | mountains and along the rough | roads whenever opportunity offers. | ‘olonel Hernandez has ntlu]l‘(‘ki the | tactics of the Indians to a large extent, | and he has a number of scouting par- | ties looking for bands of Indians. Skir- | mishes between these small opposing | forces occur daily, but the casualties are small. It is reported that General | Luis Torres has urgently recommended to the War Department that a large force of rurales be sent to aid in the campaign. The rurales are natural born mountain fighters, and are held in great dread by the Yaqui Indians, There has been a great exodus of | American gold prospectors from the | hostile cour during the past few | wee The majority of these pros- | pectors made their egress through Or- tiz. They nearly all brought out tales of murder and arson that had been committed by the Indlans. A number | of these prospectors were forced to abandon paying gold placer claims, and there is little prospect that they will be able to re-enter the region and re- sume their mining operations | Thomas G. Joure formerly of | Butte, M is one of the prospectors who had to flee from his mining claim when he had a fortune in sight. He estimates that he had not less than| $40,000 of gold on hand when a band of ¥ at Y. aquis in war paint began shooting the Heg him_from ui River opposite side of the yunted his broncho | and fled toward Ortiz, leaving nearly | an'or his! g shings behind.

Tebbets feigned sor- row for the young lady’s plight and out | of the goodness of his heart suggested | that he might be able to “fix"" the mat- | ter for a certain sum. The money was and the certificate was issued When the impending scandal was known only within the inner circle of the Dental | aminers Dr. Moore of Benicia, who is | secretary of the board, wrote to Dr, Cranz | that whenever he said the word he a position to force Teb ..

Dr. Cranz has never re- ceived an anewer to the jetter and Tebbets | is still a-member of the board. ‘ rs that at the time R. | George Harris to try for a certificate | from the State Board he was not aware | that the key of the whole situation was for sale. No one had Intimated to him | that the list of questions could be pur. chased from members of the board unti after he had taken the examination in anatomy and failed to pass. This exami- nation occurred in the morning, and be e the afternoon, it Is stated on good told by Dr. J. § ‘\nu“l(fln that there was an easier way to get a certificate than to burn the mid- | night ofl studying books on dentistry. For | a consideration of $2 Knowlton is said to | have promised to produce the list of ques- tions. Harris did not have the ready money, and pawned his ring to raise the | wind that promised to blow a dental cer- tificate in his direction. The scheme was so promising that Har let couple of fellow-students named “holas Connor and Fred O. Wolf in on the secret. The story goes that he agreed to let them have the use of the questions | which he had contracted for with Knowl ton. Knowlton had previously informed Harris that Tebbets was the man who had | such great compassion on the struggling | students in dentistry as to give them the | list of examination questions for a con- | sideration. In some way the fact that Harris was | going to share his information witn s | friends reached the ears of the dealérs | in State Board favors, and Harrls was in- | formed that the price of questions had | gone up. The demand was made for $75. Wolt and Connor were called into con- sultation, and between the trio the neces- | sary amount was raised. This was handed | to Knowlton and in the course of a little | time he delfvered the goods. The three men studied the questions ana | prepared their answers in the office of | Dr. E. J. Treyer, room 7, Phelan building, where Harris is now practicing. They carefully avoided a similarity in their | style of answers and when they went to complete their examinations they were satisfied that all they had to do was to wait and have their certificates handed them. Things did not come their way. While they were waiting for the glad tidings ot | their success they received the sorrowful news that they would have to try again— that they had fallen by the wayside In answering some of the questions. Harris at once jumped at the conclusion that he bad been bunkoed and snorted around like ri: | called, and swear D I R R S R R O S ] ° + @ + * + ® e » - ’ $ + L 4 @+ eoe a madman, Knowlton was sent for post- | SOUAW SUES - [OR DIVORC haste. The doctor evidently knew what was coming, for when he appeared in Harris” office he had the §75 in his out- stretched hand and before a word was passed between them he had ‘paid back the money. “It was not my fault,” he said. “I did all that I could and cannot understand | why you falled to pass.” Harris at.once took his ring out of pawn. To friends he stated that he no kick coming and would N6t squeal on ause they had returned his money. Tre only thing for which he expressed re- gret was the fact that he had put up $10 for the privilege of taking the examina- tions and that was gone beyond recall.

Dr. J. S. Knowlton, having acted as a go betwe who is accused of dental examination questions, was brief, but not to the point, when interviewed vesterday. He knows Dr. Tebbets well and was formerly in the same office with George R. Harris, whose letters show that he was once secking the coveted ques- tions. Dr. Knowlton is now an ‘instructor in mechanical dentistry in the College of Physiclans and Surgeons, having suc- ceeded Major Boxton to that position. “I positively decline to talk about this matter,” said Dr. Knowlton yesterday af- ternoon, “‘except to say that George R. Harris is a — treacherous fellow, whose triend I made the mistake to be. He says that I can’t be believed under oath. WeH, 1 will go on the witness stand, if I am “hat it is all a lle. That and I don’t want is all 1 have to sa | ta_be bothered.” Further than that Dr. Knowlton would | have nothing to say. He was very evi- dently disturbed. Tn connection with Harris' failure to pass the examinations after recelving the set of questions from Tebbets, a story is told which implicates in a measure Dr. Metealf of Sacramento and Dr. Thomas Morffew of this city. It Is stated that some time before the examinations Dr. Morffew sent a man to Harris with the request that the latter allow him to study mechanical dentistry in his laboratory and perfect himself in the under the doctor's instructions, Harris fused to accommodate the friend of Dr. Morfifew and a coolness sprang up be- t en them. Harris told an acquaintance that Dr. Metcalf of Sacramento informed im that it was useless for him ta at- tempt to get a diploma from the State board for the reason that he was doomed for refusing to accommodate Dr. Morffey —_—— | EVIDENCE ACCUMULATES. Tebbets Wanted a Poor Arme- nian to Borrow Money to Bribe Him. FRESNO, Sept. %.—Dr. G. H. Gazarian of the firm of Cook & Gazarian, dentists | of this city, claims that he is one of the victims of the wholesale bribery practice charged against Dr. F. F. Tebbets of the State Board of Dental Examiners. Ac- cording to Gazarian's story he is a victim, not because he was fleeced out of $300, but because the board refused to issue him a diploma after he had passed the examina- | tion but had refused to pungle. Gazarian is an Armenian and speaks English with difficulty, but he is reputed to be one of the best practicing dentists in Fresno, notwithstandipg he has never | been granted a diploma. He has appeared before the State Board of Dental Ex- | aminers three times and has taken the examinations twice, the last time in August of this year when, according to his story, Dr. F. F. Tebbets made over- tures to him. - In August, 1538, Gazarian decided to take -the examinations and went before the State board, but failed on account of his nability to speak fluently the English language. ‘1 was about to leave San Francisco in disgust,” said the doctor to a corre- gpondent of The Call to-night, “but met a young, friend at the depot who told me not to be discouraged; that he was sure if I came next year he could arrange it so that I would pass.

He said, ‘Oh, that doesn't matter; go to a member of the board and | pay him something and it will be all | right.” “I thought the matter over and went back to San Francisco last August to try the examinations again. I didn’t like the money suggestion and did nothing toward My young friend had promised to do that he could. “On the second day of the examina- | tions I was leaving the room in which lnn- questions are submitted to the appli- | cants and happened to pass the door of Dr. Tebbets' office. The door was open | and the doctor was sitting in a chair. He hatled me, saying: ‘Hello, Gazaria: | T am glad to see you and I hope you | will pass this time. Come in; I want to tell you something.’ “I went into the office and he asked me how many times I had tried the exami- | nations. 1 told him I had been before | the board three times, counting that one. He asked me if 1 had seen a certain voung man at the depot as I was about to leave San Franmcisco the year before. I told him that I had and that I had seen the young man again since I got back to San Francisco that time. He asked me what the young man had told | me. I explained that he had advised me to get an influentlal friend on the board. %, ‘\\’ell did you get the influential friend?’ he askea. “T told him that I did not; that every- body was a stranger to me. ‘Would you like to pass this time? he asked. I told him I would, and he said, ‘Well, I am your friend; T'll help you.” “I did not see him again until the next day. It was the day the soldiers came in and he was on his way down to the ferry depot, accompanied by his secre- tary. I met him and he said: ‘Come, doc- tor; let us go see the soldiers” I walked down the street with nim and pretty soon the secretary left us. “At Market and Fourth streets Tebbets invited me into a neighboring saloon to have a drink. I drank soda and he took whisky. He mentioned the conversation had with ‘me the day before and asked me what I thought of it. I told him I thought he was my friend. He asked me aminers.

Great damage was done and no fewer than sixty na- tives perished. There was a rainfall of twenty-eight | inches in thirty-eight hours. | bad landslides took place between Dar- Jvuling and Sonada, involving the transshipment of a railway train of | passengers. According to the latest reports nine Curopean children and twenty natives were lost between those two points. The whole Calcutta road is blocked. About a thousand acres of tea have been destroyed from Jalapabar to Burchill. At the latter place some three thousand feet of water supply pipe have been ruined. The electric plant has suffered seriously and the town is in darkness. There is great fear of further rain. A dispatch from Jalpaiguri, on the river Teesta, forty miles southeast of Darjeeling, says that a boat crossing | the Teesta with three Europeans and six natives was swamped by the high waves. The body of one of its occu- pants has been found fourteen miles down the river. - It is reported that the Europeans, Anderson, Kuster and ‘Whitman, jumped overboard. Their fate ,is unknown.

Sept. 25.—There was much speculation to-day as to the probable time of Admiral Dewey’s ar- rival off Sandy Hook. In the opinion of many officers the Olympia will not be sighted first off Sandy Hook. They think that in all probability the ad- | miral will so time his approach to the American coast that he will have| leisure to put into some bay, possibly | Delaware, for the purpose of painting his ship before proceeding to New York. Aboard the flagship it was said that the Texas had been selected as the ship | to go out to meet Dewey and escort him into port. No orders were issued yesterday. Whatever ship is selected for the service will remain with the fleet with steam up until the Olympia is sighted from the highlands of Nave- sink, and she will then steam down the bay and meet Dewey's flagship out- side.
