He was ap- prehended'on a bench warrant issued in New York. He was charged with grand larceny. It is claimed that forgerles committed by Giersdorfer in New York last March against the firm employing him netted him $16,000. He passed through this ecity on his way to Japan, but went only as far as Honolulu. He returned from there and has since been residing with his wife in Marin County.

VANCOUVER, B. C., -June 8.—Three | ! thousand Indians to-day presented the | Passion Play pt Chilliwack. The tableaux 1and all the ceremonies’in connection were the most unique and elaborate of the kind ever produced on this continent. Every detail of the Passion was presented by the | Indians, who have been training for the event for months. American visitors { formed a large part of the number who | witnessed the impressive scenes this af- i ternoon. There were several hundred vis- itors from Seattie and Tacoma, and, with | the great gathering of brightly dressed | natives, more than 4000 persons thronged the big field in which the play was held. Early this morning the introductory cer- | emonies took place. Blessings were pro- nounced by Bishop Dontenwill, Fathers | Chirouse and Lejeune and others of the | attendant clergy. Just after noon the pro- cession was formed and first marched through the town of Chilliwack. The ergy walked with eight of the older | chiefs at the head of the long line of In- dians. Many families rode in carts and in ! many of the wagons there were frequently | three generations of native braves. The site of the crucifixion was similar to the real Golgotha of the Scriptures. { From the small hill on which a stand had been arranged for the performers the | ground sloped away into the yalley and | Jown toward Mount Baker, which is oniy i a mile or two away. Here had gathered | the larger number of the spectators. The | regiment of red men came down from the | vitlage and after a short pause com- | i i | i | { menced marching around the platform. The little hill was encircled three times, the Indians chanting the while hymns they had learned from the pioneer priests The varicus evolutions necessary for car. ryiug this out with such a large body of | men and women of all ages were enacted | to_a nicety. | Then for the greater part of the after- noon the scenes of the passion were en- | cted in detail. Each was explained spe- | cifically by Bishop Dontenwill, or by one | of the assisting priests, for it was the | | object to impress the native mind with | the solemni of the occasion. that of Christ's visit to which was carrled out in every realistic detail, from the tableaux of the sleening disciples to the grove of threcugh which the Savior passed in walk. With no delay, the betrayal by | Judas was shown and then attention cent- | ered on the third scene, that of the trial | by Pontius Pilate. The Roms&n Governor was shown amid all his wealth, and alto- gether the scene was depicted with rare magnificence. The meeting between Jesus and his mother created a marked impression upon the throng. ) Then came a marvelous reproduction of | | the scene in which was Christ bearing the | cross, coming along the edge of the hill | The young chief who enacted this part | bent down and finally collapsed under the | burden of the cross, and was relieved by | the discinle who stood next him. This | piece of work was carried out very pret- | tily | _Following came the exhortation by | Jesus to the two prisoners who were to | be executed with him. The cross was ar- | ranged with a mechanical contrivance so ! that blood would pour out of the variou: wounds from which the Master was shown to have suffered. 1 Finally there was the death scene and ‘that of the removal from the cross. The | Roman soldiers stood around in all the |glory of ancient magnificence, while | Mary, the mother of Jesus, and Mary | | Magdalene and other women were suita- bly portrayed. ! | At the close of the scenes, which num- bered sixteen in all, the priests gave the | Tnatans lessons from the passion and ad- | dressed them in smail groups until the | gathering broke up at dusk. @ iireisielleiledlmiieielnllelnlodeleid @ WANT SURRENDER . OF CONGESSIONS Big Suit Brought Against the Honduras Syn- dicate. NEW YORK, June 8.—A hearing was given to-day in Jersey City in the suit brought in the United States Clreuit Court to compel the Honduras Syndicate to surrender concessions obtained from it by the Government of Honduras. Gen- eral Benjamin F. Tracey, former Secre- tary of the Navy, was examined by Jacob F. Shipherd, the promoter of the original Hondurds Company. It is claimed that General Tracey and others, after learning the projects and plans of the Honduras Company, formed the Honduras Syndicate and obtained for the Honduras Syndicate valuable concessions, which should have gone to the Honduras Company. General Tracey said he had been in- formed that Shipherd had dropped out of the enterprise, but that there was no rea- son why he or others should drop out. | Shipherd had promised to see him, but! failed to do so. Suddenly he was con- fronted with the signing of the papers. He | thought that Shipherd would prefer to| have him on the inside. He told his as- | sociates in the enterprise that Shipherd | must be well treated, but he thought the | compensation of $50,000 given to Shipherd was extravagant. General Tracey sald the relation of counsel never existed between himself and | anybody In connection with the projected | Honduras enterprise. Shipherd read a | letter written by Frank Loomis, referring to General Tracey and himself as counsel for the Horduras Company. General Tracey said that Loomis “may have thought that I was counsel, but I never| intended to create in Mr. mis’ mind the idea that my relation was that of couneel.” POLIGE REGONE STOLEN SILVER The lone burglar who has caused wide- spread terror in the Western Addition by entering houses while the occupants peccetully slept and stealing large quan- titles of silverware is still at liberty, despite the efforts of Captain of Detec- tives Seymour and his men to entrap him.
