J. K. Toole the Thomas Cr Savings Bank. vidson's account was opened on Sep- 1558, and closed on February Davidson was considered a repre tative of Clark in the Senatorial cam- aign, and the effort was to show that | Clark’s money was being used. Cook said that from firet to last $21,800 was deposited | in Davidson’s name, and $1300 of this | | amount came into the bank in_the shape of a draft from the bank of Clark & Brother, Butte, apd $3809 on a telegraphic order of transfer from that bank. He said the money was all checked out, but he could not remember to whom any of the checks were made payable. In the case of | Toole there was an effort to connect his | withdrawal from the Benatorial contest | with Clark’s name, but Cook said he knew | nothing about politics. | Cook had no recollection of any unusual | number of $100 bills in circulation in Helena during the winter of 1898-99, when | Senatorial contest was on. The de- it slips in Tooie's name showed de- posits in currency amounting to $576 from | November 3, 1865, to July 31, 1399. David- | son had been in the commission business, | but had made an assignment. Willlam A. Rector, who said he was an expert_accountant, was the next witness. He testified that he had secured rooms in Helena, to be used during the Senatorial | contest at the instance of A. J. Steele, | getting three rooms in the Power block, | which met Steele's requirements, of a | vault and a number of entrances. These | rooms the witness described as a *“‘trap’ and said they were used for consulta- tion with members of the Legislature, fe stated that he had seen several members in the rooms and had heard Steele, David- son and other supporters of Clark discuss the ways and means of securing votes. He had seen a sum of money which he thought was $10,000 paid to one of the members Referring on cross-examination to kis relations with Steele, the witness contend- (-? lfllml the latter was no especial friend of his “The only eign of friendship I ever re- ceived,” he said, “was that after he had bought the Grand Jury he gave me $0 to watch them.” This assertion ralsed a laugh and also tee considerable trouble. The committes, in order to keep the investigation within reasonable scope, had decided not to en- ter into the Grand Jury investigation. The information had been volunteered, and Mr. Faulkner insisted that if it was (o | stand he ghould have an opportunity to re- | fute it. The committee took the matter under advisement. The witness gave the amounts which were, according to his information, paid ‘l]n the different members of the Grand ury. During the cross-examination a shar tilt occurred between ex-Senator Ed- munds and Faulkner, of counsel on the rnimuli\‘e sides of the controversy. “Don't try to take care of the witness,” said the West Virginia ex-Senator. 1 will take care of you if you don’t keep within the rules,” responded the Vcr« monter. Chandler interfered at this point and the investigation proceeded. Rector said he was positive that the member of the Legislature who was paid for his vote in the presence of the witness had put the money in his pocket. He sald this man was one of a number of Repub- lican members who were not to vote im- mediately for Clark—not until *the but- ton was touched.” Replying to Faulkner's efforts to show inconsistency between the statements made to-day and those made in Montata, Rector explained by saying: “1 have made no study of it, because ‘‘Are you certain of that?” asked Faulk- ner. ““Not a dollar,” was the reply. The committee adjourned until Friday before Rector concluded his testimony. =s——" " John Stevenson Dying. Special Dispatch to The Call.

There, right under the eyes o the ememy. moved with slow and solemn tread ali that remained of the Highland bfigade. in tront of them walked the chaplain, with bared head, dressed in his robes of office: then came the pipers with their pipes, sixteen in all, and behind them, with arme reversed, moved the Highlanders, dressed in all of the regalia of their regiments, and In the midst the dead | zenoral, borne by four of his comrades. { Out swelled the pipes to the strain of the | “Flowers of the Forest,”’ unti] the soldlers’ | heads went back in haughty deflance and eyes | flashed through fears like sunlight on steel; now singing to a moaning wall like a woman | wailing her first born, until the proud heads | dropped forward till they rested on the heaving chests and tears rolled down the wan and scarred faces, and the choking sobs broke | through the solemn rhythm of the march jof | death, Right up to the grave they marched, [ | eral lay In the shallow grave, with a Scottish square of armed men around him. Only the dead man's son and a small remnant of his | officers stood with the chaplain and the piper while the solemn services of the church were spoken Then once again the piper pealed out “Loch- aver No More.” It cut through the stiliness like a cry of pain until one could almost hear | the widow in her Highland home moaning for the soldier she would welcome back no more. | Then as if touched by the magic of one thought the soldlers turned their tear-damp eyes from the still form in the shallow grave toward | the heights where Cronje, the lion of Africa, and his soldiers stood. Then every cheek flushed crimson and the strong jaws set like steel and the velns on the hands that clasped the rifle handles swelled almost to bursting with the fervor of the grip and that look | from those silent, armed men spoke more elo- | quently than ever spoke the tongues of ora- tors. For on each frowning face the spirit of vengeance sat and each sparkling eye asked silently for blood. God help the Boers when the.mext Highlander pibroch sounds. God rest the Boers' souls when the Highland bayonets charge, for nelther death nor hell, nor things above nor things below will hold the Scots back from their blood feud. At the head of the grave, at the point near- est the enemy, the general was laid to sleep, his officers grouped around him, while in. line row wrapped in their blankets. = No shots were * fired ‘over the dead men resting so peacefully. Only the. sa- lute was given, and then the men marched campward as the darkness of an African nfght' rolled over the far-stretching breadth of veldt. To the gentlewoman who bears the general's name the Highland brigade send their deepest sympathy. To the members and the wives, the sisters and the swedthearts In the cottage homes by hillside and glen they send love and g00d wishes—sad will be thelr Christmas, sad- der the New Year. Yet, enshrined in every womanly heart from Quéen Empress to cot- tage girl, let thelr memory be the memory of the Highland brigade who dled at Magersfon- | tein. The same writer thus depicts the way in which the disaster overtook the High- landers: During the night it was coneldered expedient that the big Highland brigade, about 4000 | strong, under General Wauchope, should get close enough to the lines of the foe to make it possible to charge the heights. At midnight the gallant general moved cautlously through the darkness toward the kopje where the Boers were most strongly intrenched. They were led by & guide who was supposed to know every inch of the country, out into the darkness of an African night. The brigade marched in line of quarter column, each man stepping cautious- ly and slowly, for they knew that any sound meant death. Every order was given in a hoarse whisper, and in whispers It was passed along the ranks from man to man. Nothing was heard as they moved toward the gloomy, steel-fronted helghts but the brushing of their feet in the veldt grass and the deep drawn brgaths of the marching men. onward until 3 o'clock on the morning of Monday. Then out of the darkness a rifle rang sharp and clear, a herald of disaster. A soldier had tripped In the dark over the hidden wires lald down by the enemy. In a second—in the twinkling of an eye—the searchlights of the Boers fell broad and clear as the noonday sun on the ranks of the doomed Highlanders, though it left the enemy concealed in the shadows of the frowning mass of hills behind them. For one brief moment the Scots seemed paralyzed by the suddenness of their discovery, for they knew that. they were buddled together like sheep within fifty yards of the trenches of-the enemy. Then clear above the ‘éonfusion rolled the voice of the general, “‘Steady, men, steady,” and Jike.an ecbo fo the veterans out came the crastt of nearly a thousand rifies not ‘fifty paces from them. The Highlanders reeled before the spooklike trees before them. The best, their bravest, fell in that wild hail of lead. Genera] Wauchope was down, riddled with bullets, vet, gasping, dying, bleeding from every vein, the Highfand chiefain raibed himself o his Handg and knees and cheered his men forward. Men and efficers fell 1o heaps together. The | PP SNPD S S S b | Then PROMINENTLY MENTIONED IN THE DISPATCHES LIEUTENANT COLONEL F. W.

Of her officers, the flower of her chivalry, the pride of her breeding, but few remained to tell the tale—a sad tale, truly, but one untainted with dishorior or smirched with disgrace, for up those helghts under sim- flar efrcumstances even a brigade of devils could scarce have hoped to pass. All that mor- | tal man could do the Scots did. They tried, they falled; they fell and there is nothing left us mow but to move in and avenge. All that fateful day our men lay close to the Boer lines under a blazing sun. Over their heads the shots of friends and foes passed with- out ceasing. All day long the battle raged. Scarcely conld we see the foe—all that met our eyes was the rooky heights that spoke with tongue of flame whenever our troops drew near. Once our guards made a brilllant dash at the trenches and like a torrent their resistless | valor bore all before them and for a few brief moments they got within hitting distance of the foe. Well did they avenge the siaughter of the Scots, the bayonets, like tongues of flame, pasded. above or below the rifles’ guard and swept through brisket and .breast bone. Out of ‘their trenches the guardsmen tossed the Boers, as men in English harvest flelds toss the hay when the reapers’ scythes have whitened the corn . flelds, and the human streams were plentiful where the British guardsmen stood. Then they fell back, for the fire from the heights above them fell thick as the spume on the surf on the Australlan rock-ribbed coast. The Guards had proved to the Boers that, man to man, the Briton was Eis master. In vain all that day Methuen tried by every rule he knew. to draw the enemy; vainly the Lancers rode recklessly to induce those human rock limpets to come out and cut them off. Cronje knew the mettle of our men and an ironic laugh played around “his iron mouth, and still he stayed within his native fastnesses: but death sat ever at his elbow, for our gun- ners dropped the lyddite shells and the howl- ing shrapnel all along lines, until the trenches ran blood, and many of his guns were silenced. 1In the valley behind his outer line of hills his dead lay piled in hundreds and the slope of the hill was & charnel house where the wounded all writhed amid the masses of the dead, a ghastly tribute to British xun- nery. When, at 1:30 p. m. on Tuesday, we drew off to Modder River to report, we left nearly 2000 dead and wounded of grim old Cronje's men as a token that the lion of Briton had bared his teeth in earnest. The last mails from the Cape brought numerous accounts of Magersfontein; but none so vivid as this. Jullan Ralph, in the Daily Mail, very bluntly writes of the Highlanders after the first volley from the hidden trenches: They turned and ran, literally colliding and climbing over one another in thelr confusion. A chaplain forward in the ranks was knocked down and trampled, as brave a man as any, vet one who declared that there lived no man who would have behaved differently. It Has been @s if the earth had opened, and from a cleft that ran as far as our men reached, fire had belched and shot swept the veldt.

Bpectal Dispatch to The Call. | SAN RAFAEL, Jan. 17.—The prelimin- ary hearing of Patrick Boyle, charged | with arson, took place here to-day before | Judge Rodden, District Attorney M Isaacs conducted the case for the peopl while Attorney James Cochrane appeare for Boyle. The trial, which was replete with sensation, resulted in Boyle being held on bonds of $4000, which up to late | this evening had not been furnished. | The whole of the morning session was | taken up by the examination of Mrs. Sheppard, who proved an excellent wit- | ness until subjected to a grilling cross- | examination by Attorney Cochrane, which | left the testimony of the prosecution’s | | star witness in a very dubious light. Mrs. | Sheppard was the woman who lived over | Boyle’s saloon and who was instrumental | | in fighting the flames. She told of her ex- perience on the night of the fire and | | seemed to be extremely vindictive toward | Boyle. Other witnesdes called by the | prosecution were George Shearer, C. T. | | Shader, John McLaugnlin and John J | O'Brien. Next to Mrs. Sheppard, John O'Brien, Boyle's bartender, gave the most | damaging evidence. He told of having | seen the large can of oil delivered which Mrs. Sheppard claimed to have carried | | out of the Hames. He stated that he had never seen so much ofl delivered at the loon and that Boyle seemed much e | cited on the night of the fire. | | The lesxlmong; of other witnesses cor- | roborated in the main Mrs. Sheppard's | | statement. | | l | | | Attorney Cochrane sprung sensation, | when at the close of the testimony he | asked for dismissal on the ground that no evidence had been offered but Mrs. Shep- | pard's, which pointed directly to Boyle as the firebug. The testimony offered by | Mrs. Sheppard was so vague, sald Coch- rane, that it could hardly be admitted as evidence. Judge Rodden refused to di { miss the prisoner and held Boyle to an | swer In $4000 bonds. | A dramatic scene occurred after the | decision was rendered. Mrs. Wagner, the prisoner's stepmother, fell on her knees efore the Judge and the Distriet Attor- ney and prayed them eves to lower Boyle's bond to $2000. “Let { me take my boy home,” she begged. Another sensation was occasioned when Mrs. Sheppard, her eyes blazing with rage, attacked Cochrane. “You dare call me a lar?" she cried. The courtroom had emptied at the time and for a few sec- onds it looked as if the Infuriated woman would give Cochrane a bad quarter of an hour. Lur‘kll{ for Cochrane, however, Mrs. Sheppard's friends led her away be- | fore trouble resulted. Up to late to-night no one had been se- cured to go on Boyle's bond, but Coch- rane is confident of having his client at | liberty to-morrow. vith tears in her | | JOE PETE SURRENDERS. of William Dangberg. | Special Disgatch to The Call. CARSON, Nev, Jan. 17.—Early this morning Joe Pete, the Indian who mur- dered Willlam Dangberg last Segmmh»r at_Gardnerville, surrendered to Willlam Johnson and is confined in the County Jail in this city. Rewards amounting $1100 were offered for his capture. The Indian surrendered under the stipu- lation that part of the reward money be used for his defense. After the murder of young Dangberg Pete took to the mountains, where he has received assist ance from tribesmen. Last week a poss but failed. Attorney Woodburn made ar- rangements for Pete's surrender, as the Indian could have killed many men in the attempt to capture him. Pete had abandoned his rifle and had only a re- volver. He w tired out and had been hounded nearly to death. Since the shoot- ing Pete has been, he says, ranging be- | tween Markleville and Antelope.
