Theobald, the mail robber captured by Postoffice Inspector James | O’Connell, walved examination yesterday morning in United States Court Commis- sioner Heacock’s court .and was held to answer to the charge. Theobald is a former convict and went under the aliases of George W. Raymond, George W. Ramon and Charles L. Shaw. For several weeks prior to his arrest he operated in the business district of this city stealing packages left on top of the newspaper and package mail boxes on the streets. He also pulled packages out of these boxes when the boxes were crammed and the ends of the packages were left sticking out of the slot. What- ever was merchantable in the packages he disposed of in exchange for cigars and meals. The stamps taken off the pack- ages he sold at half price, but only in small quantities in each place. The prisoner has been a criminal all his life. He was committed to the San Francisco Industrial School in 1871, when | He was next | sent to San Quentin penitentiary for.two and a half years for grand larceny in Alameda County. After his release he was caught stealing books from the edi- torial rooms of a newspaper in this city and served six months in the County Jail. | Then he went to the Almshouse as an | inmate, and while there was convicted | of stealing books and received a sentence of six months. His latest conviction was one of six months for stealing brass signs | from doorways. He was released on Au- gust 31 and on Septg‘ber 1 he began rob- bing the mails. | | | Altheer Returns to His Home. Bernard Altheer, the young chicken rancher, whose disappearance from his place at Petaluma was noticed in Sun- day’s Call, returned to the home of his parents at 1261 Webster street yesterday morning. At the time of his sudden dis- appearance from the Petaluma chicken ranch he had quite a sum of money on | his person, and his non-arrival at his clty home aroused the suspicion of his rela- tives that he might have met with foul play. Such, however, was not the case, as when he reported at his home he had all his property intact. The only strange feature of his disappearance is that he claims to have lost all recollection of how or where he spent the twenty-four hours of his time that is unaccounted for. —_——— *Wili Discuss Whipping Case.

Yesterday { was the final day of the two days' con- test and the champions of the rifle had done excellent work and were anxiously watching every shot that was fired. The | scores were all very close and as the | shooting proceeded the interest became intense. A. Strecker, F. E. Mason, F. P. Schuster, A. Pape, N. Ahrens and other | participants had all made high scores and | | were expected to carry off the laurels of |the day. The astonishment was great when George Rischmuller stepped in just before the targets went down and made 73 rings out of a possible 75, winning from the next highest dnan by one ring. During the afternoon the interest cen- | tered on the members' target. This is the | most difficult target on which to make a high score, as only one entry is allowed. ‘When. the festival was drawing to aiciose and F. E. Mason, F. P. Schuster, Otto Bremer and other champfons had placed | high scores to their credit, the partici- | pants were surprised to see Max Ko- lander, one of the youngest of marks- men, step in and wrest the trophy away with the excellent score of 69 rings. The result of the two days' contest is that A. Strecker is king, George Risch- muller Sr. is the highest man on, the honorary target, Max Kolander leads all the comrades of his club on the members’ target and Frank E. Mason made the best | center of the festival with one of the clos- | est bullseyes ever made, being but .50 of | inch from a true center. O. Samuels was | the lucky shot among the press members, | making 65 rings. | The success of the festival is largely due to the efforts of Philo Jacoby and | John C. Waller, who had the affair in | charge and took care of the visiting | marksmen from different parts of the | State. Marksmen from outside this city | did very well, especially J. Myer and Ja- | cob Gruhler of Sacramento and M. Mala- | vos of San Jose | The first bullseve in the morning was | made by A. Rahwyler; last bullseye in the | morning, A. Strecker; first bullseye in the | afternoon, Max Kolander. The first| twenty-five ring shot was made by C.! Zimmerman and the second by J.

He is now negu- tiating with Jimmy Britt and “Billy" Sie- ger to battle twenty rounds next month. Last night “Billy” Britt, who represents the local lightweight, and “Billy”" Roach, the astute manager and trainer of the New York boxer, met in Greggains’ club rooms and talked fight. Greggains is will- ing to give the pair a battle and if a few preliminary arrangements can be made the card next month will be Britt and Sieger. This will be a battle well worth seeing. Sieger recently gave Rufe Turner, the colored lightweight of Stock- ton, a trouncing in Portland. He has also fought draws with Joe Gans. Sieger has a splendid record, and it is thought he will be just the man to give Britt a hard fight. Special boxing matches will be held at the Olympic Club next Thursday evening. Leader John J. Gleason has arranged a splendid card. None but members will be admitted to the club house, e DESPERADO TERRORIZES | A SECTION OF KANSAS { Thomas Madison, Wanted for Tflple‘ Murder, Eludes the Officers | and Bloodhounds.

Two Whites and Two Hea'h= en Make Resistance When Arrested. PR A A Police Officer J. Barrett of the China- town squad had a desperate battle with two Chinese and two white men in a gambling joint in Chinatown last night. The assallants pinioned the policeman’s wrist between a door and the casing and while he was thus handicapped beat him severely. After releasing himself he final- 1y beat the men into submission and ar- rested them, though his wrist was badly hurt by the door. Barrett learned that a lottery joint was running at 604 Jackson street. He went to the place and on opening the door dis- covered the two Chinese, Lou Kong and How Wah, and two white men, John Larsen and Albert Duncan, in the place marking tickets. He was about to place all the party under arrest, when the white men attacked him and, crowding him to the door, succeeded in catching him by the wrist and holding him there. The officer, almost helpless, fought as best he could, but the two heathens held the door while Larsen and Duncan administered the beating. Chairs, sticks and flsts rained on the policeman’s head, while all he could do was to kick and struggle to free himself with one hand.

CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo., Sept. 21.—The habeas corpus proceedings in the District Court to-day in the cases of military prisoners in confinement at Camp Golden had all the spectacular settings of mili- tary display. At the morning session Judge Seeds absolutely refused to listen to any argument in the absence of the prisoners and an adjournment was taken until 2 p. m. Previous to that a heavy | guard of troops was placed around the building containing the courtrooms, and at 1:30 the four prisoners for whom writs had been issued were brought in under guard. When court convened Lieutenant Me- Clelland read a supplementary return to the writ of habeas corpus. In this he claimed the first jurisdiction of the Dis- trict Court over the military prisoners, saying that General Chase was in full au- thority. by virtue of the executive order of Governor Peabody and had absolute authority in the situation by the right which Governor Peabody gave him when he ordered the troops to the district. Attorneys for the prisoner relatéd the substance of their petition. Attorney Mur- phy sald the four prisoners held were citizens of the United States and were being illegally detained without warrant. Lieutenant McClelland, acting advocate general, replied. He read from the Penn- sylvania Supreme Court decisions in the case of Private Wesc who shot and killed a striker and was acquitted of the charge of murder, saying: “Our ease rests practically on that Supreme Court decision.” Attorney Mwphy then addressed the court and cited the decision of the Su- | preme Court of Colorado that was handed Jtto Bremer 65, R. | charging the recelver and the Land Office | BECE PORTe of COOFRT0 (0ot wad Mondod | with obtaining extortionate fees for cer- g 40, F.

Sept. 21L.—Trooper Davis of the Eighth United States Cav- alry has reached West Point, being the first of a detachment of twelve troopers who started from Oklahoma thirty-nine days ago on a test ride of 2000 miles. Thd men were allowed to eat and sleep when they pleased, relays of horses being pro- vided every thirty miles, the object of the ride being to cover the distance in the shortest possible time. Davis, being the lightest man of the party, led his comrades at the start and thus had the advantage of getting the pick of mounts at the relay stations. He rode up the east bank of the Hudson as far as Garrison, where his horse gave out. The ferry having stopped running, he re- ported his arrival by signaling across the river to West Point. Then he came on to this city, thence proceeded to his destina. tion. Davis weighed 137 pounds when he started and now weighs but 108 pounds. He was very tired, but happy to think he had broken the record for the distance, which is forty-five days. The ride is one of several taken to test the stamina of men and horses, made at the suggestion of General Young, the new chief of staff. —_————— GALVESTON, Tex., Sept. 21.—The conveyer of the Southern Pacific grain elevator, 500 feet long, was destroyed by fire to-day, together with a part of the wharf.
