Special Dispatch to The Call. BAKERSFIELD, Aug. 15.—Jim McKin- ney, the fugitive outlaw, is now in the mountains to the northeast of this city, probably heading for the Randsburg gold region. On Monday night he appeared at the house of Calvin Dunlap, at Glennvilie, a small settlement in the mountains, thir- ty miles from Porterville and forty miles from this place. Glenville is four miles | south of the northern boundary of Kern | County, and is in a rough and sparsely | settléd region. Dunlap is one of the old- est_scttlers there. He is a cattle raiser and keeps a small hotel in the village. McKinney is an old acquaintance of the hotel man, and when he appeared at the house an. ked for something to eat Le was not refused; but when he wanted to talk about the roads and trails of that region Dunlap stopped him and said that | while he would give McKinney something | to eat and permit him to sleep at his | house he would not get implicated in his affairs, and wanted to know nothing about his plans for the future, With that McKinney went to bed, asking to bLe called in _the morning. When Dunlap went to call the fugitive | early the next morning McKinney was not to be found. He had quietly slipped away during the night. There can be no doubt as to the identl- fication, for the information comes to this | place direct from Glenuville and from a man well acquainted. with Dunlap, whom he got the story. from Glennville 15 orterville and ble to conclude | t 1ds to make tor | the almost inaccessible region surround- ing the gold center. The road to Rands- is through one of the roughest dis- | s in the State and is well adapted for | g place for the outlaw. Officers | from Tulare and Kern counties are now searching the mountains between Glenn-,| ville and Randsburg. | When he was at Dunlap's McKinney | had fully recovered from hi wound.

W. Mulcahey, a depositor in the Hi- bernia Bank, has brought suit to secure & portion of the $2,500,000 surplus of that in- stitution. On the settlement of his case depends the legality of several thousand other claims which are based on the same grounds. Mulcahey deposited $600 with the Hibernia Savings and Loan Soclety in 1560 and became a member thereby. He main- tains that he is still a member and there- fore is entitled to a share of the immense surplus. The case has been entered on the calendar of the Supreme Court and will come up for argument August 25. The sult was commenced in the Superior Court several weeks ago. for the bank filed a demurrer, which was sustained by Judge Dunne. Appeal was then taken to the Supreme Court. W. T. Baggett, who represents Mul- cahey in the suit, avers In his complaint that the present members of the society secured the $2,600,000 by fraud. The case as presented by him is substantially as follows: At the time his client depos- ited $600 the rules of the society were that any depositor might become a mem- ber by paying a fee of $2 and signing his pame to the roll. Practically all of the several thousand depositors were conse- quently members and entitled to a pro- ortionate share of the earnings of the ank. In 1864 the society was reincorporated under a legislative provision affecting such organizations. The board of trus- tees at that time made a regulation that all who were depositors and members of the society previous to reincorporation should remain such under the new order of things. It was prescribed, however, that the rolls must be signed again. FIFTY-THREE GAIN CONTROL. Only_fifty-three members, mostly Mar- tins, Donchues and Tobius, fulfilled the last’ requirement, Mulcahey alleges that ne never recelved any notice that another signature was necessary. In 1871, the trustees of the soclety passed a new regulation that all members who had failed to sign their names to the roll pre- vious to January 18 of that year had iost their membership and were not en- titled to a division of the surplus funds. 1t was at that time provided that ncw members might be admitted on the vote of_the board of trustees, Shortly after this action was taken the rest of the depositors became aware that they did not belong to the elect. The surplus was not so large then and they ditd not feel so badly about it as some of them do now. The funds have kept grow- ing until they have reached the present lerolc figure and there are now many original depositors who feel that they could spend a part of that $2,500,000 should it come under their control. Mulcahey is making a test case of it and the others in the same box are lustily cheering him on to victory. If he wins, they win. If he loses, it doesn't cost them a cent. The executors of sev- eral estates are also waiting for the out- come of ‘the dispute. ‘When the present roll of members wag made up a rule was passed that the old deposit books should be taken up as the several accounts were exhausted. In thls way, a large number of people lost all claims to the surplus. Others, of whom Mulcahey s one, have retained thefr old deposit books, which are evidence that thelr owners were members of the first Hibernia Savings and Loan Soclety. It is on the strength of these original quasi certificates of membership that the new suft is instituted. OTHER SUITS ARE LOST, Several other attempts have been made by members of the soclety at various times since 1871 to secure a share of the surplus. It was then declared that the whole transaction was fllegal and fraudu- Jent. Of those interested in the case some had surrendered their books. The distir- guishing feature of the case’ at bar is the contention that Mulcahey, never hav- ing been notified that he must sign ax- cther roll, Is still really a member of the society or will be when he can sign the roll by order of the court. All other holders of the original bank books can make a similar claim. Tt is stated by interedted attorneys that the bank people cannot prove that they nptified and In fact did not notify the thousands of members that another siz- nature was necessary after reincorpora- tion. Of the fifty-three signers of the roll of 1871, only twenty-one are now allve. Somc of the latter have dropped out. The pres- cnt members of the society are: f S. Tobin, R. J.

THE HAGUE, Aug. 15.—The arrival here next week of the Boer Generals Botha, Dewet and Delarey is expected to. put a check to the recently renewed antl-British propaganda. According to the present programme, the Boer generals will first visit Amsterdam, where a great reception in their honor wiil be held. They deputies and employes of the Warnke yesterday afternoon charged with rioting and committed to jail in default of $3000 bail each, were given a hearing in court to-day and released upon furnishing a bond ot $10,000 for the entire party.

A Lithuanian striker was arrested in Plymouth Township to-night charged with being one of a party that shot George Gullivan, employed in fighting fire at the Jersey mine. President Mitchell will leave to-morrow for another trip to the West. He will go first to Indianapolis, and from there to his home in Illinois.

Troops Are Called Out to Prevent Trouble in Shenandoah. SHENANDOAH, Pa., Aug. 15.—There was an outbreak to-night right under the noses of the troops in camp, and for a time it looked as though serious trouble would occur. The disorder was the re- sult of a mob chasing an alleged unfair workman in the southwestern part of town. As they chased the man up the railroad, throwing stones at him, the night watchman of the washery, named Flynn, tried to rescue the man. The watchman was thrown into a creek by those leading in the chase. The crowd kept after the workman and he ran to the Reading Railroad station, where a company of infantry was on provost guard. The company was im- mediately called into formation and at- tempted to hold the crowd back. The mob caused a large crowd to gather from all directions and word was sent to the camp for reinforcements. In nine min- utes the entire Twelfth Regiment and a battalion of the Eighth were on the scene. The crowd quickly scattered and three men who were alleged to have been par- ticipants in the assault on the watchman and the workman were arrested and taken to the town lockup. The Incident created intense excitement in the town, but all is now quiet. The three men who were arrested were later given a hearing and held in $500 each for trial. STRIKE MAY BE SETTLED.
