The warrant issued vesterday by Judge Rodden of this city upon complaint of Joseph de Wolfe of Tiburon, who swore that the doctor trfed | to fill him full of rifle balls, is ~eposing in the pocket of Constable George Agnew.

Upon ascertaining this the Con- stable went to Tiburon, procured a launch he telephoned to Kinyoun, expecting that the doctor would gladly surrender. The doctor, according to Agnew's story, re- fused to be arrested unless assured that he would not be detained at San Rafael. This condition could not be agreed to by the Constable, who demanded an uncon- ditional surrender. Further parley over the wire resulted in Agnew being informed that he was a trespasser on the island and that only a United States Marshal could arrest the doctor. The “harrowing tale of how the Krag bullets are sald to have whistled about the head of boatman De Wolfe was still sounding in Agnew’s ears and the Con- stable retreated to his launch and head- ed back to Tiburon under a full head of steam.

Special Dispatch to The Call. SAN JOSE, May 5.—The excitement over the arrest of Crill, the Dunham suspect, is subsiding, and although many people called at the jall to-day the visitors were only the more curious of previous day As it was, Crili’s identification was fur- ther established. Mrs. J. A. Fisher's iden- tification last evening changed Sheriff Langford’s mind, and Crill was not con- fined in a cell. Crill will be released in the next day or so, for the Sheriff is about willing to admit the mistake. If Crill's freedom is not forthcoming he will apply for a writ of Labeas corpus and seek his release in court. Mrs, Annie Bloomquist, of formerly | Rockford, Iil., and F. L. Terwilliger, who lived at Monroe, IlL, called to see Crill, and after questioning him closely about those places were satisfled his story in re- gard to being there was correct. Crill has been a willing prisoner and has borne well the strain of having thousands scrutinize him. He stated to-night he may make San José his home, and espe- claily o if he can make some money here after he gets out. He praises Sheriff Langford for the manner in which he has been treated. Crill is now devoting himself to study- ing the Dunham crime. He says he wants to know all about the crime with which he is charged. He intends to visit the scene of the murders at the McGlincy place when released. He declares he will famillarize himself with Dunham’s scription, and in his future travels he in- tends to keep a sharp lookout for his double and will try and land him in jail. Crill now thinks he would know Dunham if he saw him, and hopes he may yet se- cure part of the reward which tempted his arrest.

BRITISH TARS IN A GARNIVAL San Diego Welcomes the Men on the War- spite. Spectal Dispatch to’ The Call. SAN DIEGO, May 5—The city is full of English sailors this evening. Never did a crew of a war vessel arrive in port with as much pleasure as the crew of the Warspite seemed to feel on reach- ing San Diego, the city In which sailors of all navies have had the largest amount of liberty. The Warspite dropped anchor a little after 10 o'clock, and soon after Mayor Capps, representing the city, and Pres- ident Ballou of the Chamber of Com- merce went on board. Speaking for the committee and for the city, President Ballou extended a welcome to the visit- ors, and explained the plans which had been made for their entertainment while here. They extended an invitation for the sailors to participate in the aquatic sports to-morrow afternoon, and in the carnival and illuminated naval parade to- morrow_evening. To Admiral Bickford himself and the officers of the Warspite an invitation was extended to the ball to be given Tuesday evening. In reply Admiral Bickford thanked the committee, and stated that, though he had intended to leave on Tues- day, he would remain another day and actept the ball invitation. Captain Kep- pel and other officers were introduced, and the invitation to take part in the plans of the various committees was ac- cepted. AlL are looking forward to two more days of pleasure. This afternoon and evening Admiral Bickford sent his band on shore, where it joined with the City Guard band of San Diego in a concert at Coronado, which was attended by hundreds from this side of the bay. Each band gave a separate concert, and then the two Joined forces for a few special numbers. To-morrow afternoon the committee on sports and sailing and rowing races will have charge.

(Lo e Civil Service Reform League Advises Change in the System. gl e NEW YORK, May 5—A report by the investigating committee of the National Civil Service Reform League on condi- tions in the Indian service, with particu- lar reference to the appointment of agents under the present administration, has been presented to the council of the League. The facts and recommendations contalned ‘in the report have also been submitted to President McKinley. The report says in part: ““Under the system of patronage ap- ointments to these wards of the nation ave in many cases been despoiled by fraudulent contracts whereby the agents have obtained large sums of money in | violation of law, while the morals of the Indians have been corrupted by the ex- ample of caretakers who are often drunken, brutal, licentious and dishonest. “‘Recently the Secretary of the Interior Indian lands should be opened and the leases awarded in Washington under the direct supervision of the Indian Bureau, and not, as formerly, upon the reserva- tions. The result of this system and of the exposure of the fraudulent use of Indian lands already shows a net gain to the Indians of about $150,000, the greater ! part of which was upon the Osage Res- ervation alone. Nothing could better il- lustrate the enormous waste and pre- sumptive peculations which have existed in the past in respect to this one feature of Indian administration.” A number of instances are cited show- ing how agents have abused their power | for their own pecuniary benefit and with | demoralizing consequences to the Indians. The report says it seems evident that whatever temporary improvement may be made by changes in the personnel of the Indian service, no lasting reform can be inaugurated without a change in the sys- | tem itself, e It is submitted that under section 1753 of the Revised Statutes the Chief Execu- {tive has the right to promulgate regula- tlons declaring that all appointments of Indlan agents hereafter shall be made by promotion from the superintendents of Indian schools and from the other higher | grades in the classified Indian service and | by details from the army. In pursuance | of this statute, an inspector might be se- lected by the President from the classified service to ascertain and report the rela- tive qualifications of the different persons in this service eligible for appointment. POSTOFFICE OFFICIAL TO Order Issued That Ordinary Messen- gers Cannot Carry Mail Over the Arctic Trail. SEATTLE, May 5.—The Nome Gold Dig- ger of February 6 says that every one i will learn with surprise that an effort Is being made in the postoffice to prevent letters being carried to the outside by men going over the trail this country during the long months of “white silence”-and the dreary time that elapses, even by the quickest mode of travel, before friends can be communi- cated with has hitherto made people glad- {1y grasp at any chance that offers of shortening by a few weeks the passage of letters to the outside. No one has thought of wondering whether the local postoffice would-lose a few cents in the way of can- cellations. It seems, however, that these few cents are now grudged. to be quoted for publication, state em- phatically that under the existing circum- | stances_the postoffice officials have no right whatever to prevent travelers from carrying letters for private individuals. Postmaster Wright has issued a ukase that no man going out over the trail may carry letters, and he adds that any one bold enough to defy this _imperative de- ! cree will be arrested at Eaton, have his | mail confiscated and be fined, even if he‘\ is lucky enough to escape languishing in | a dungeon cell. | FINDS BAGS OF GOLD | IN A MINER'S VAULT i | Administrator of the Estate of Fred- erick Hutchinson of Philadel- phia, Discovers Riches. | SEATTLE, May 5.—Josiah Collins of | Seattle, who was appointed administrator | of the estate of Frederick Hutchinson, ioneers of the Yukon, who | o) hcemtly in Bhiladelphia, has discov {ered that he is in control of an estate worth $200,00. He gave a bond for $15,000 | in the beginning, but when he opened | Hutchinson’s strong box in the safe de-| posit vaults he found bags of gold and Bundles of valuable securities. This big fortune will go to Herbert Hutchinson of Philadelphia, 2 _brother of the old Circle City and Kiondike miner, and two sis- ters, who live in England. Hutchinson made a modest fortune at Circle City. Later he purchased claims on Eldorado during the early days of the Klondike. He omassed $200,000 from these. During a trip down.the river last fall he | was shipwrecked in White Horse Rapids and rescued after hours in the ice-cold Water. The exposure brought on sickness, which finally caused his death. e MAY REMOVE CONFLICT.

Relatives of Market - Street Suicide Invoke tha Aid of Police. L An ugly.scandai has arisen over the suicide of Fred Hathaway which seriously involves the Coroner’s office, and charges of robbing the body of the dead man are made by his relatives, and it is not unlike- ly that the matter may be ecalled to the attention of the Grand Jury. Disappointed in love, young Hathaway committed sulcide by inhaling illuminat- ing gas in a lodging-house at 737 Market street. The day preceding his act of self- destruction he had purchased a pair of shoes and a hat, which were found in the room when the body was discovered. Out of respect to the wishes of the relatives of the dead man Coroner Leland did not have the body removed to the Morgue, but allowed it to be taken to the home of | his relatives. Following the usual custom in such cases, the Coroner's deputies took charge of the clothing and effects of the suicide and had them conveyed to the Morgue. After the inquest the effects of the dead man were sent to his relatives. On opening the package which contained the clothing of young Hathaway his brother was surprised to find only an old bhat and a pair of well-worn tan shoes. Knowing that they had not belonged to his unfortunate relative, Hathaway lost no time in communicating with Coroner Leland and asking him for an explana- tion. The Coroner questioned his depu- ties, but they were either unable or re- luctant to tell what had become of the | new shoes and hat that had belonged to | the dead man. Angered at what he termed the “bold | robbery of the dead,” the brother of the | suicide placed the matter in the hands of | Captain of Detectives Seymour. The lat- ter detailed Detective Fom Coleman on the case. Coleman yesterday visited the | Morgue and closely” questioned the dep- | uty in charge. The latter claimed to be { vnable to throw any light on the subject, | but handed the detective a pair of goid | eyeglasses that had belonged to the dead man, with the remark that he had “for- gotten all about them. ‘Will Be Taken to Texas.
