SAN RAFAEL, Nov. 22.—Attorney | James W. Cochrane declares that he did | not offer a bribe of $00 to Dr. Winn to | change the testimony he was expected to | offer in the Griffin case. Dr. Winn as- serts that he solicited no bribe and did not tell anybody at all that Cochrane had endeavored to corrupt him. Cochrane is emphatic in his statement that Winn did come into the offices of Jones & O'Don- nell in the Parrott bullding a week ago last Monday and did ask for $100 to give testimony tavorable to the defense. Winn | says he was not there. Attorney J. W. Keyes, Patrick Mulva- ney and another person say that Winn accused Cochrane of attempted bribery in a saloon In San Francisco. Winn admits he was in the saloon and says he was sober; the others say he was partially Intoxicated. Attorney Cochrane made a positive declaration that he would stand up in court to-day and there air his grievances. He d!d not and his friends now assert that he was entirely .00 mod- €st to sesk such publicity. This mass of statements, contradictory and otherwise, represents the status of the corruption charges in the famous | Griffin - will case. As all connect-| ed with the affalr except the plaintiff and his lawyer are falling over one another | to register denials it is unifkely that the | Grand Jury will have a chance to enjoy | itself by rLolding an investigation. “1 didn’t solicit a bribe, was never of- fered one and didn't ask for one. That is all T have to say.” This was Dr. Winn's statement. “If Winn said I offered nim $500 he is an infamous llar. He came to Mr. O’'Don- nell’s office in the Parrott bullding aweek ago last Monday evening and in lil(‘ pres- ence of Attorney Jones and myself asked for $100. He refused and went away. The man is a morphine flend and is drunk half the time. Nothing he says can be trusted.” This s Attorney Cochrane's version. The defense continued the furnishing of evidence showing Mrs. Griffin to be sane to-day and contrary to expectations will not finish until to-morrow. Those who | swore they belleved Mrs. Griffin sane rom the business relations they had with her were: Chester Patton, ex-Judgs F dward Bean, S.

UINCY, I, Nov. 22 —Quincy will make to-morrow a holiday over the re- turn of the gallant naval officer, Lieutenant Harry H. Caldwell, U. S. N., secretary to Admiral Dewey, and according to-the admiral's own words his right-hand man at Manila and in the trying times which followed the memorable battle. was a8 the writer of Dewey's famous dispatches following the sinking of the Spanish fleet that this young officer first came into notice, and his capa- bility in this trying position has kept him at the front. When Admiral Dewey returned to Washington last month he {ntroduced Lieutenant Caldwell to Presi- dent McKinley as “the talented young officer who composed all my dispatches and letters.” But it is not only as a master of clear English and diplomacy that Caldwell is distinguished. He wields the sword as well as the pen, and when at the battle of Manila the quota of line officers was short he volunteered to direct one of the Olympla’s secondary batteries and did It in a manner that won the approval of his captain and obtained for him especial mention In reports for gallantry in actlon. For this he was promoted ten numbers in the list of en- signs and later was again promoted to lieutenant, junior grade. Since his return to this country he has been again promoted and now holds the rank of lieu- tenant of the senfor grade. It Admiral Dewey had not vetoed the expedition at the moment it was setting out Lieutenant Caldwell would have vied with Hobson in audacity and daring. After the battle In which the Spanish fleet was sunk the Americans discovered that several small Spanish gunboats had taken refuge in the Pasig River, where the draft of the American men-of-war would not allow them to follow. To allow these destructive little fighters to remain where they were was a constant menace to the fleet and there was much concern as to how they should be cap- tured or destroved. Then it was that Lieutenant Caldwell laid a plan before the admiral. It was to take an armed boat's crew at night into the river and tor- pedo the gunboats. The risk attached was fearful, and the originator of the plan knew that the chances were 100 to 1 that not a man would get back alive. 1f they were not blown up along with the boats they destroyed they would be intercepted by the soldiers and cut to pleces. But the young officer argued that the gunboats must be destroyed for the safety of the whole fleet, and that it would be better to lose a handful of men than all. Finally and reluctantly the admiral gave his consent and Caldwell got his volunteer crew together and was on the point of setting off when his commander’s heart failed him and he ordered him back. The pluck and determination that has brought reward to him in his chosen professicn has always characterized Caldwell. He belonged to that large class of Ameri boys who have thelr own way to make in the world. He was not blessed with riches, and being a sturdy boy he early started to carry papers for an afternoon daily. When he reached the age of 14 and the freshman year in the high echool a vacancy for his Congressional district occurred at Annapolls. On the morning that the competitive examination was held he first heard about it and determined to try it. He presented himself before the examiners and was given the list of questions. He worked at them until the hour when it was necessary to be at the newspaper office to carry his route. Gathering up his papers unfinished he handed them to the board and told the members that he would have to quit In order to attend to his dutles. He was told that it was against the rules governing examinations to allow a candidate to leave the room and an take up the task. Then he said: *I shall have to give this up. I must carry my route.” And he did. This ¢ stion to duty surprised and pleased the board and it determined to give this sturdy lad a chance. That evening he was sent for and allowed to fin- ish the papers In the Congressman’'s office. He won the appointment. In the fall of 1857 he reported at Annapolis and began his naval education. I ant Caldwell will return to his old home in Quincy to-morrow, and in the evening a banquet will be given him at the Hotel Néwcomb. Two hundred representative citizens will do honor to their distinguished young townsman and m a magnificent silver loving cup to commemorate his services at Manila. The cup is eighteen Inches high, gold-lined and of Roman design.

When Licutenant Caldwell reaches Quincy he will be recelved by a reception comm! e of citizens and the military and naval reserve forces of the city and escorted to his home in triumph. i LONG WILL ASK FOR EIGHTEEN WARSHIPS { wiLL PUBLISH THE CHARTER TO-HORROW the Largest in the United States Navy. | WASHI )N, Nov. 22.—Secretary .ong will recommend to Congress a pro- rumme for new naval construction which rdan with the policy that ued for the past three years. sk for th armored cruisers 3,00 tons displacement, three isers of about $)% tons and boats of 80X tons, making in all. cruisers will be enlarged 1 in many detalls, and hips in the United t havi reat speed.

Some weeks ago, without any apparent good reason, the 2 o'clock local afternoon train for San Francisco was withdrawn, al- though it had always been liberally pa- tronized by business men and the public generally, who desired to arrive at tho metropolis to attend the theaters or fiil business engagements. As a concession to the public, however, and to satisfy the complaints, the Southern Pacific made the announcement that Sacramentuns who wanted to reach San Francisco in a sea- sgonable hour might take the new west- bound flyer, which is supposed to come in at 2:10 o'clock and leave five minutes later, but the train is often late in arriv- ing here and the wait when it does come is scarcely long enough to enable a man to catch his breath. Besides he must pay the Pullman fee for a seat, and if there are no spare seats he cannot go at all. The westbound overland, which is sup osed to leave three hours later, is d fiyed haif the time, often being ‘three or four hours late. Besides this, the local for Stockton is frequently two and three hours beanind scheduled time In leaving Sacramento and the result is naturally a great inconvenience to those who have business or other engagements at Stock- ton and figure on keeping them by using the Southern Pacific time table as the basis for their calculation.
