The French colony has now the assur- ance of having a real Club Francals, the membership of which will be composed only of sons of the republic of France. The organizers of the club have worked with zeal and energy and are proud of the sucéess that has been achieved. In the rear future rooms are to be se- leeted where members of the club will be able to spend their leisure hours. Pa- pers from different parts of France will be on file each week. A billiard-room and athletic appal&tus will also be pro- vided for the use of members. | In furtherance of this plan it has been | decided to give a grand reunion on Sep- | tember 7 at the Germania Gardens, ard all interested in the Club Francais are earnestly reguested to attend. Professor Louis Tronchet of the Olym- pic Club has already made up a fine pro- | gramme of fencing, boxing, wrestling, Seen by Ellis with Two Sacks of Coin in His Hands. Charles Waltz, safe expert, was the first witness yesterday in the United | ates District Court in the case of the United States vs. Walter N. Dimmick, in- dicted for stealing $30,000 from the Mint in this city, In answer to quéstions By S. C. Den- son, Mr. Waltz showed how easy it would be for Dimmick, or any one else as cou- versant with combination locks as Dim- mick was, to acquaint himself with Cashier Cole’s new combination by taking ff the lock plate and doing just as Dim- mick did when he “assisted” Cole in chdpging the combination. i On this point the witness gave an ob- | Ject lesson to the jury.

The evidence. on this point was that Dimmick took off -the back plate white changing’ the combination from his own to_Ccie's, John P.

The witness added that manufacturers specially cau- tloned users of these locks no: to take off the plate in such cases. The witness showed how casy it was for.a man look- ing into the back of ‘the-lock with the back p.ate removed to learn what num- s were being moved on.the dial. He 0 described how the time lock had been unpered with, so that the vault could be opened on Sunday, when apparently it was set so that it could-not-be opendd before Monday. It could also be opened after office’ hours. C. E.

Brugere for desertion was begun yes- terday before United States Commis- sioner Heacock. Brugere was a cook.on board the French bark Marguerite Mari- bund, and is charged with having desert- ed the ship on July 27 of this year. Brugere testified that on July 14 Cap- talr Beauregard paid _him off and dis- charged him in the office-of the French Consul, and that the discharge was en- tered on the ship’s list; also that the captain made an order allowing him to board the ship for the purpose of getting | his kit, but not to allow -him on board after that. The case went over until Monday to al- low the attorney for the Consul time to procure evidence in rebuttal.

Officers Pursue, Firing Re- volvers, and Capture the Fugitives, SItEReR A bold break for liberty was made by three prisoners at the entrance to the Ccunty Jail on Broadway about 11 o’clock yesterday morning and after sharp runs in different directions they were caught and taken back to jail, Two shots were fired and for a few moments there was considerable excitement on the streets in the vicinity of the jail. The prison van left the Hall of Justice a few minutes before 11 o'clock with eight prisoners for the County Jail. They were Joseph Williams, who had been sentenced by Judge Cook to serve three years in Folsom penitentiary for burglary in the | seph Million, waiting trial in Judge Dunne’s court for assault to murder; Frank Loland, awaiting trial in Judge Cook’s court for robbery; Joseph _ng, the convict preacher, awaiting trial in Judge Lawlor's court on four charges of burglary; Joseph Tobin, awaiting trial in Juage Dunne's court for a criminal as- sauit, and two Chinese. The van was in chairge of Balliff Daniel McCarthy of Judge Dunne’s court, who stood on the Iear steps. 1t was driven by Daniel Kingsley. PRISONERS MAKE A DASH. The van was backed up to the jail en- trance on Broadway ana Superintendent Frank Cornyn and Deputies ~'homas Dempsey and W. ¥. Dasher came down ihe steps to assist McCarthy in taking the prisoners out. A load of hay was be- ing 'delivered from a wagon close to tho Juil cntrance and as McCarthy opened the van door two bales of hay fell from | the wagon and McCarthy had to Jump | {from the steps to save himself from be- irng struck by them. Just thén Loland jumped from the van, followed by Wililams and Buchanan. | Loland | ran along Broadway to Kearny, pursued | by McCarthy, Cornyn and Dasher. Mec- | Qarthy fired a shot at him as he turned | hfiu Kearny street and he dropped to the ! sidewalk, afraid of being shot. McCarthy | grd Cornyn were on top of him like a ash and soon had the handcuffs on him. Some one tripped Dasher just as he was in the act of firing at Loland and he fell to the sidewalk. Dasher says he would know the man again and will arrest him on the first opportunity. GRABBED BY A DETECTIVE. Williams \ran along Broadway to’Du- pont, pursuéd by Driver Kingsley and Dempsey. Kingsley fired a_shot at the | fugitive, but missed him. He succeeded, | lejo_and Green streets. A butcher ran up | to Kingsley and was preparing to help ‘Williams when Dempsey made his appear- ance and showed his badge, which had | the effect of making the butcher slink away. Buchanan ran across Broadway diagon- ally to Montgomery avenue and jumped on the dummy of a passing cable car go- ing west. Detective R. J. Whitaker was sitting_on the dummy and hearing the shots fired at Loland and Williams, sus- pected that Buchanan was mixed up in a breakaway, and grabbed hold of him. Buchanan wrenched himself free from Whitaker and ran into _a saloon, closely followed by Whitaker. Buchanan showed fight, but was overpowered and the hand- cuffs. placed on him. After Whitaker had taken Buchanan back to the jail and removed the handcuffs, Buchanan said in a surly tone, “That will do now,” and aimed a vicious blow at Dempsey, who had returned with Willlams. Dasher grabbed hold of Buchanan, who inserted his teeth in Dasher’s cheek. Buchanan had to be subdued by force. DRAWING OF KEY FOUND. The eight prisoners had been handcuffed and chained to each other and it is sup- posed that Buchanan had unlocked the handcuffs while in the van by means of a plece of wire. He is believed to have been ringleader from the fact that a week ago whelg he was taken back from the Hall | of J®stice to the jail, it was found im- | possible to open his handcuffs. A lock- smith had to be sent for and it was dis- ccvered that a plece of pen-shaped steel like a handcuff key was in the lock. The three men were searched at the jail in the hope of finding the instrument that opened the handcuffs, but without suc- cess. . A perfect drawing of a handcuff key was found in Loland's pocket. —— Suspected of Being a Forger. James M. Holcomb alias W.
