M. Dunn, alias Howard, Mc- Clure, alias Charles Howard, and re- turn him to that institution. The At- torney General has notified the War- den of the Ohio penitentiary. Davis escaped from the Ohio penitentiary while serving a term of five years' im- prisonment for burglarizing a post- office.

Rooney, brother-in- law of Commissioner Charles Spear Much evidence was introduced to show | that the lease to Rooney was grani=d for personal or political reasons, with- jout calling for bids and in spite of | the known fact that Foster & Orear were prepared to raise their competi- tor’s bid. Much of this evidence was frcm Commissioners Spear and Mac- kenzie, who were called as witnesses | for the plaintiffs. Mackenzie admitied that long before the matter came up in the board meetings he had promised | Spear to vote for Rooney, and all the | efforts of counsel for the board on | cross-examination failed to get him to | | say that when this promise was given the question of rental was even men- | tioned.

Most of them will sail to-day, and within a week the whole fleet will be afloat and steaming or tacking its way to the homes of the red fish whose flesh is now a universal staple. | | Among the vessels that cleared yes- terday were the little steamers Pacific| and Alitak. The first named is going to Prince William Sound, the Alitak to the port from which she takes her name. These steam vessels are used as tenders, towboats, dispatch-boats and for other purposes, and are busiest | members of the big fleet.

This coal they | will carry to the various salmon ports, where it will be used as fuel for oper- ;ating the machinery at the canneries. i The ship Eclipse cleared for Blaine. i The schooners Premier and Prosper | cleared for Prince Willlam Sound. { SRSl Arrest Caused Absence.

' Captain Howard, when he learned the | woman’s plight, sent her to a hotel, where she continued worrying over her husband's absence until yesterday, when Gustave secured his lib- erty and rejolned his wife. Are Iredale Gets Away at Last. The British bark Iredale, Captain Pearce, whose salling was delayed on account of the | poor crew supplied, got away yesterday after- noon for the United Kingdom. The Iredale shipped ten men as seamen a few days ago and was ready for sea when Captain Pearce Qiscovercd that most of the new crew were | green hands and utterly useless. He changed three of the greenest for three saflormen and | hopes ‘to have the remainder of his awkward squad licked into shape by the time the vessel strikes bad weather.
