Saloon-Keeper Claims That Kauffman Wanted a Pistol. William A. Henderson, alias Jack Wade, whose voluntary confession in open court ided the prosecution in convicting rank Woods of shooting to death Po- eman Eugene C. Robinson, took the witness chair again yesterday to assist the District Attorney to secure a verdict ogainst Willilam - Kauffman, alias St. Louis Fat. During the Woods trial Hen- derson appeared very willing to tell all he knew about the criminal conspiracy, hick failed in its object, but resulted in the death of a brave officer. He seem- ed pleased with the notoriety which his corfession had gained for him and he &p- peared to enjoy the stare of the curious people who crowded the courtroom. When Henderson took the stand yester- day ell desire to shine as a star witness seemed to have left him. Instead of resolutely facing the Assistant District Attorney and answering his questions freely, as he did at the Woods hearing, he crouched back in the chair and had to be continually requested to talk louder. Most of the time he spoke so low that even the jurors had to strain their ears in order to hear him. .When he was brought into court before he did not think that he wculd be called on to testify against all his former companions. Brooding over the thought that he would have to pe in- strumental in securing a conviction of four of his former friends and associates in crimg has broken his spirit. HENDERSON TESTIFIES. Henderson did not complete his con- fession yesterd: He was not called un- til the afternoon and at the hour of ad- journm:ent he had told the events that happened on the night of January 20, up to that point where the six conspirators had armed themselves with pistols, burg- lars’ tools and nitro-glycerin, preparatory to attacking the safe in the Cypress Lawn Cemetery. He will continue his story this morning. Attorney Schooler made a long argument against allowing Henderson to testify against Kauffman, but his objections were overruled. He: derson told his story in part as follows: I had known William Kauffman about four months previous to the killing of Officer Rob- inson. Just previous to the day the police- man was shot, Kauffman, Goucher, myself and a man named O'Brien, Who is a cripple, occu- pied the basement at 203 Turk street. Kauff- man rented the placs. About a week before Jenuary 21 Kauffman brought Courtney to the rooms and introduced him to us. We had planned to break open the safe in a bank about four miles out of San Jose and Kauffman wanted Courtney to assist us. This plan was abandoned and we entered into an_agreement to rob Cypress Lawn Cemetery. Courtney went out and looked the place over. They came back and reported that there was a safe there and that they did not think there was any one sleeping in the office at night. KAUFFMAN WANTED PISTOL. On the night of January 20, When we went to the cemetery. all but Kauffman were armed with pistols. We also bad a brace and bit, candles, cap, fuse and nitro-glycerin, which Kauffman made from dynamite. The dyna- mite had been secured by Kennedy in Sacra- n.ento, Almost the entire morning session was taken up with the testimony of William Levings, who corroborated in_full the statements made by Detective Wren re- garding the confession which was made by Kauffman in Captain Seymour’s of- fice. Owen J. McQuade, a liquor dealer on Sixteenth street, and Ferdinand C. Apel, who resides at 25 Randal place, near | teenth street, told how, on the morn- | ing of the shooting, they heard shots fired on Valencia street. They both saw three men running down Valencia street toward ulizg. avenue and heard some one cry, “Halt! I am an officer,” after which there were more shots. Daniel J. Seibert, a liquor dealer at 618 Pacific street, testified that Kauffman tried to get a pistol from him. He said that he knew Kauffman slightly and that he came to his saloon some time m Jar uary and asked him for a pistol. Seib told him he had none and Kauffman re- quested him to try and et one. saying that he would send Henderson, who was | with him at the time, back to get it. Henderson called for the pistol, but Sei- bert had not obtained one for him. Dr. A. W. Morton, the physician who attended Woods after he had been shot by Robinson, testified as to Woods’ wounds. The treatment was given in the City Prison after Woods had been brought back from Canada. Sergeant Camphell told of the finding of Woods’ coat in the lot on Guerrero street, and athan Krinsky, a pawnbroker at 785 sion street, testified that a few days ore the tragedy a man resembling Woods and carrying an overcoat came into his store to buy some old-fashioned 44-caliber cartridges. TELLS A POLICEMAN HE WANTS TO KILL HIMSELF James Meyers Bgsfit Care to Live Without the Girl He Loves. James Meyers, a young teamster, went to Policeman Foley at Fourth and | Minna streets about 10 o'clock Tuesday | night and startled the officer by saying | that unless he took him into custody and | sent him to jail for a long term he would | commit suicide. Meyers had been drink- | ing heavily. He placed his hand in his | coat pocket, and, thinking he was about | to draw a revolver and shoot himself, Fo- | ley grabbed hold of his arm. The officers scarched him and found in his coat pocket a box containing “Rough on Rats.” Foley took the box from Meyers and booked him on a charge of being drunk in a public place. Yesterday Meyers appeared before Judge Cabaniss and seemed to be suffering from the effects of his debauch. In answer to the Judge he said he wanted to commit suicide because he loved a girl and wished to marry her but his parents objected. He_had left his home and did not care to | live without the girl he loved. The Judge | talked to him in a fatherly way and sen- tenced him to serve thirty days in jail, that he might get sober and rid himself of his suicidal intent —_——— DISTILLER JASPRIZZA PAYS PENALTY OF $1500 To Defraud Uncle Sam He Sells Brandy Under a Port Wine Label.

TWO GIANT FREIGHT CARRIERS ARRIVE HERE FROM NEW Y Tremont is Sister Ship to the Shawmut, and Can Take a Cargo 14,000 Tons Dead Weight. ORK 1 WO of the biggest freighters in the American merchant marine arrived in port yesterday, both from New York. They were the Tremont and the Oregonian. The Tremont was 5¢ days from New York, made the trip without any stops and came around by way of Cape Horn. The Oregonian, which was 60 days making the passage, stopped at Coronel for coal. The Tremont is a sister ship to the Shawmut and belongs to the Boston Tow- boat Company This is the Tremont’s maiden voyage. After discharging her cargo of steel ralls and general merchan- dise she will go to Puget Sound, having been built for service between that part of the coast and the Orient. ‘While the Shawmut was here a few weeks ago her skipper, Captain Smith, made a great fuss about the size of his | ship and his fears that there was not | enough water in the harbor to keep her | keel from scraping bottom. As far as his actual experience went the Shawmut found water and to spare wherever Cap- | tain Smith found it necessary to take her, but he kicked just the same and both here and on Puget Sound ventilated | his opinion of San Francisco through the | press. The chief officer of the Tremont said yesterday that as a result of Smith’s action just before they left New | York they received instructions from | headquarters to extend no courtesies to the San Francisco newspapers and to tell nobody anything about the ship. “‘Captain’ Smith,” the Tremont's mate ! continued, ““was in poor business talking as he did about San Francisco. I guess a few of us know a thing or two about this port. We had an uneventful trip | and in addition to our cargo brought one ! stowaway. 1 don’t know his name, but | we call him ‘Hobo." ™" | The Tremont came by way of Cape Horn, of which promontory they had a remarkably clear view. Fine weather was encountered throughout the trip. The Tremont has a cargo carrying ca- pacity of more than 14000 tons dead weight and, like the Shawmut, is fitted with up-to-date appliances for handling | | freight of all kinds. Her skipper is Cap- | tain Garlichs, who is well known here and | was formerly master of the Hyades. The Oregonian left New York July 25. She spoke the steamship American, bound from Honolulu for New York, in the Straits of Magellan. After discharging her general cargo she will go to Honolulu to load sugar for New York. The Overdue List. The Neuilly was added to the overdue list yesterday and quoted at 15 per cent. She is out 90 days from Newcastle for Junin. The rate on the Claverdon, now out 216 days from Hamburg for this_port. was advanced to 60 per cent, and the W. F. Babcock was marked up to 30 per cent. The latter is now out 150 days from Baltimore for this port. Ventura and Mariposa Sail To-Pay. | The Oceanic Steamship Company’'s liners Ventura and Mariposa will sail at 10 o'clock | this morning for Australia and Tahitl respec- tively. Each vessel wiil carry a full comple- ment of cargo and a large number of pas- | sengers. - Back From Guatemala. The steamship Mineola arrived yesterday, twelve and a half davs from San Jose de Guate- She came up in ballast. The Mineola took south a cargo of railroad ties for the Guatemala Central Railroad e Modoc Fire Victim. As a result of the administrations of Sur- geon C. M. Armistead of the Harbor Hospital staff Louis Miller, the fireman who so narrow- ly escaped suffocation on Tuesday in the hold of the burning steamer Modoc, has almost en- tirely recovered from the effects of his awful experience. The fate of Mrs. Patterson, the passenger whose life was despaired of, is stili in doubt. - - Tropic Bird Arrives. The barkentine Tropic Bird arrived yesterday, thirty-five days from Tahitl. She brought a cargo of tropical products and several pas- sengers. Longshoreman Is Killed. John Eagan, a longshoreman, who lived at 220 Natoma street, was killed yesterday on board the British "ship Carmanian by being struck on the head with a coal bucket. NEWS OF THE OCEAN.

X 'S GAPTAIN UNDER ARREST “Skipper” White of the gequoia Is Accused or Embezzlement. SHIP San Francisco Transportation Company Prefers the Charge. Special Dispatch to The Call. SEATTLE, Sept. 2t.—Captain Michael White of the schoomer Sequoia, now at anchor, was arrested to-day by Deputy Sheriff Clark, on.the charge of embezzling between $13,000 and $15,000. The charge against him is made by the Pacific Trade and Transportation Company of San Francisco. The warrant was issued by the Superior Court. White's bonds were fixed at $12,000, which he has not yet given. He is now in the county jail The arrest was made aboard the Se- quoia, which White had chartered from the Puget Sound Briuge and Dredging Company, for a voyage to Manila. Crim- inal proceedings were brought under a special statute in_connection with a civil suit to compel White to make an ac- counting to the company. The San Fran- cisco firm alleged that White was about to leave the country, and therefore caused his arrest. The local attorney of the com- pany 1s_Edward_von Tobel. Attorney John J. Boyce of San Francisco is also In this city to look after the interest of the concern. The facts leading to the arrest, as told by Boyce, are as follows: In the spring of 191, two of the company's schooners, the Reliance and Enterprise, were sent to 115,000 feet of valuable lumber. White was power to sell cargoes and the vesseis, trip north_ was made in safety. The car- goes were 3¢ \'d b Write s ged toihave trolilng interest in 600,000 feet of lumber. all communication with the company after he had maGe a few remittances. He re- mained in Nome all of the winter of 11 and the spring of 1902. The San Francisco firm could get no accounting from their agent, although, they allege, they tried every conceivable means. The Rellance was sent back to San Francisco under another master last autumn. The Enter- prise, the smaller of the two schooners, put to sea from Nome and was lost, her crew never being heard from. Early this summer White came to Se- attie. The San Francisco firm heard that he was in this city and sent a representa- tive here to get an accounting from him. ‘White told the representative that as soon as the company made an accounting to him he was willing to settle. The com- pany insisted that it had no accounting to make and the representative returned to San Francisco without having accomplish- ed_his mission. 3 g Suit was then brought against White in him could not be effected. Later it was learned that White had chartered the Se- quoia for a voyage to Manila. Then the company sent its attorney here. The re- sult was that yesterday a civil suit was filed against White in the Superior Court to collect the amount for which he sold the Nome cargoes. This the company al- leges to be between $13,000 and $15:000. To- day a warrant was sworn out for the ar- rest of White, it being charged that he intended leaving the country. Deputy Sheriff Clark made the arrest. The com- pany put up a bond of $1500 to cover any damages that might occur should it be proved that White's arrest was unwar- ranted.

Monteith, attorney for George Silleman, complained to Mayor Schmitz yesterday that Justice of the Peace Dan- fells had treated his client with scant courtesy in summarily refusing to dis- miss a writ of attachment.
