George Wolgamote was in the slaugh- ter-house at the time the negro sudden- ly. appeared and asked for a can of wa- ter. A white man, a companion of the negro, remained on the outside and a good view of him could not be obtained. After the negro had procured the water he offered some bridle bits for sale. When he turned to go Wolgamote observed that | he had a big dirk knife and a pistol in | ms Wolgamote was so excited pocket that he forgot to notice in what direc-|® tion the two men traveled.

When Roberts was surprised by e on the banks of Putah afternoon he was in a stupor from the effects of opium and he was under the influence of that drug dur- ing the long examination at the hands of District Attorney Seymour upon his ar- rival at the County Jail last night After he had.been safely quartered be- hind the prison bars spirit of elation, only those who are acquainted with the work- ings of the drug of which he is a victim. An unwonted shrewdness was apparent in his every answer. Try as he might District Attorney Seymour could not trap him into a single damaging admission. He parried every guestion with the skill of an accomplished lawyer. Drink was offered him in the hope that it might Joosen his tongue, but Roberts glanced knowingly his questioners and declined the proffered stimulant. PRISONER IS DEPRESSED. The inevitable state of depression fol- | Jowing the period of exaltation came to- | and Roberts had a civil word for | morrow, the practiced officers da n vdy. Te- gure out, will come a renewal of the aving for the drug and then, as one of | | the Sheriff's posse expressed it to-night, “Roberts will tell the secrets of every member of his family back to his great- grandmother if the prospect of more opt- um is held out to him.” If there is one man at the county jall in whom Roberts will confide it is Dep- uty Sheriff Timothy Haggerty, fourteen ars an officer at the Folsom prison and a man with whom the convict has always been on good terms. In fact, Roberts, despite his uncommunicative mood," has already conferred with his former keep- er, and he told him a circumstance which has thus far been kept a profound secret. Roberts has informed Haggerty that when Convict Gordon left the band of es- capes at Mormon Island it was with a | white face betokening the agony he was | suffering from & bullet wound inflicted by Guard Tommy Ryan, who played such a conspicuous part in the events following the outbreak of the prisoners. Roberts told Haggerty that Gordon simply sald, “Boys, I'm shot, and I'm going to leave you here,” and that he then disappeared. Roberts says he does not belleve Gordon avas seriously injured, but was suffering pain from a wound in the leg or arm. Haggerty, who has known Roberts for -ears, expresses the utmost confidence in the truth of the latter's statement with respect to Gordon's wound. SEARCH FOR HOWARD. The search for Howard continues along various roads running through Sacra- mento and Yolo counties in the sections L e s e e | ficers believe they are criminals and will hold them until to-morrow. That they { are not escapes is positively known. When Roberts was arrested in Davis- ville the officers suspected that he lied | about Howard and that the latter was making his way westward through the | brush that lines the bank of Putah Creek. The officers at Winters were notified jyst before noon to-day that a man answering the description of Howard entered Put- ker's drug store and made a purchase. Putker, who has a picture of Howard, notified the Constable as soon as he could be found. In the meantime the suspect disappeared in the brush along the creek. Constable Warder after some delay struck the trail and followed it to Pleasant Val- ley, where the suspect left the creek and turned into Pleasant Valley, going in the direction of Vacaville and Suisun. War- der then returned to Winters and re- ported. A posse was sent out from Suisun and another from Vacaville to Suisun with the hope of intercepting the suspect. Dave Colburn, a young farmer, living east of Woodland, drove to the Sheriff's office about 9 o'clock to-night and re- ported that a Sacramento posse is trailing a man supposed to be Howard along the old canal between Sacramento and Wood- land. —_———— Kills a Union Picket.

Howard was seen sitting un- termined to brave out his case to the|der a tree at the time of day mentioned at a point about a mile west of the Yolo bridge. Beside him lay a rifle, while at the moment he was examining a revolver which he had taken from the prison When Haggerty and several other dep- uties reached the neighberhood Howard | had disappeared, and has ever since elud- ed the pursuers. Haggerty looks for no repetition of the Roberts experience when the capture of Howard s attempted. Howard, declare all who know him,_ will make a fight for his life so long as he is able to handle a weapon. He has as- saulted every officer at Folsom prison who has sought to punish him, and dog- : ged brutality is written on his counte- | nance and manifest in his face and gen- eral demeanor. Roberts does not present | a heroic appearance physically, but How- | ard, with his broad shoulders and fierce | manner, has long prided himself upon his superior prowess at the penitentiary from | which he escaped. BELIEVE ROBERTS IS LYING. Sheriff Reese, his son, Edward Reese, Deputy George Wittenbrock and Con- stable M. Judge made a search of the brush along the banks of the Sacramento River on the Yolo and Sacramento sides and below this city for a distance of sev- eral miles this afternoon in the hope of | finding Howard, but their eforts were | not rewarded with success. They returned to this city to-night without having found the slightest trace of the man they are seeking. Sheriff Reese and the officers under him do not accept Roberts’ statement that | Howard left him at Agricultural Park last Tuesday, since which time the two fugi- tives have not met. Roberts has said that when Howard separated from him he | sald he was going toward Worth, Nev., where he has a brother-in-law employed by the Southern Pacific Company. The of- ficers belleve Roberts is shielding How- ard, a bellef strengthened by the report from a reliable source that Howard was seen in Yolo County last evening, west of the Yalo bridge. The prison authorities want Roberts re- { turned to the prison without delay, but Sheriff Reese and District Attorney Sey- mour will probably keep him here three or four days and subject him to daily “sweatings” in order to gain full informa- tion from him as to the movements and whereabouts of the other members of the escaped convict band. Roberts was given two hours of quizzing this afternoon, but very little information was wrung from him. What the meager information was neither Reese nor Sey- mour would divulge. REFUSES TO TALK. Roberts refuses to see any newspaper men and the officers will not force him to, do so. His story given to The Call at Davieville, in which he detalled his move- ments, is the only one which he has thus far vouchsafed the press. Roberts clings to his plea of innocence of any greater crime than breaking prison with a tenac- ity which leads the officers to believe that he has never learned of the death of Guard William L. Cotter, the result ot the conspiracy in which he was a prime fac- tor. He sald to-day that he was not worrying himself as the worst they could do to him would be to take away his credits at the prison. At the same time he rather plumed himself upon the fact that he had been eelected by his fellow- convicts to carry the sticks of dynamite with which it was proposed to blow open the armory if milder means failed. herifft David Reese returned from the ‘ebber Creek country this morning. He states that the bloodhounds were unable to find a good trail of the convicts, who have been seen there several times in the past week. Reese said it had been deter- mined that if the hounds failed to find the scent to-day they would be sent to Shin- gle Springs and put on the trail of the man supposed to be Convict Case, who ate supper at a hotel there last Monday night. Reese states he does not believe Case has been at Shingle Springs, and Sheriff Bosquit of El Dorado is also skep- tical of the report. e e — THINKS HE SAW HOWARD. Train Agent Kane Tells Oakland Po- lice of His Suspicions. OAKLAND, Aug. 6—F. P. Kane, a train agent in the Southern Pacific Company's employ, says he saw a man answering to the description of escaped Convict Fred Howard climb off the brakebeam of the FRIDAY placed in his cell. Operator Schnitzius speaks of the train crew. freight.

Demerett and Firemen Spark and Baker. HOUNDS TRAIL FUBITIVE NEGRO Armed Mob Is Bent on Lynching Colored Lawyer. —_— WHEELING, W. Va., Aug. 6.—8t. Clairs- ville, Ohio, a small city in Bellmont County, was thrown into a panic this evening when it became known that Mrs, M. E, Stowe, one of the most prominent and highly respected residents of the town, had been attacked by a young ne- gro lawyer. The young woman had been out for a walk in the afternoon and fe- mained later than'she had anticipated. About 6 o'cleck shé startéd for her home, the route extending through a lonely tract of woods. When within 200 yards of her home she was seized by the negro and thrown to the ground. She made a brave but unsuccessful struggle for her honor. When the woman regained conscious- ness her pitiable screams attracted the attention of passers-by, who rushed to her assistance. She was taken to her home, where she told of the brutal out- rage. A posse of the most prominent cit- izens of the county was organized and set out in pursuit of the negro, who escaped to the woods. The mob is fully armed and bent on lynching the negro when he is apprehended. Mrs. Stowe is in a critical conditiony as the result of her experience. Her assailant is a well- known negro, C. E. Burns, who has been practicing law in that vicinity. A report received late to-night states that the blo'odhounds have scented the trail and L e e e s ] baggage car on the westbound overland train this morning at Cygnus switch, be- twen Sulsun and Goodyear. As soon as Kane arrived at the Sixteenth-street sta- tion he notified Policeman McCloud and later the Chief of Police. Kane said: ““As we were passing Cygnus I was standing on a passenger coach platform and heard the crew on a freight train on the siding yell, ‘There’'s Howard on the trucks.” *As we slowed down crossing the draw- bridge a man jumped out from the bag- gage coach truck and started down the track. We were running then toward Benicia. It was at 8:45 o’clock this morn- ing. The man pulled his hat down over his face and had his coat collar turned up. He was smooth shaven, wore a brown slouch hat and a brownish coat. His hair was cut short and I couldn’t tell what color it whs. He appeared to be about § feet 7 or 8 inches tall and weighed about 160 or 170 pounds. He had a promi- nent nose. “1 was within six feet of him and had a good look at the man, who acted so suspiciously that I could not help but observe him. It was the cry from the freight train men that must have scared him out from under the car. I am sure he was not an ordiparv ‘hobo,’ be¢ause they will not get out unless driven away by force, “This man started to walk down the track away from the freight train, and as our train speeded up I could see him slinking along." e e e e e e DOAN’S KIDNEY PILLS.
