THE SAN JOSE TRAGEDY.

1he suoollnB OF the Chlnaman on a
ranch of Orrin Dubosis, on last Mon
day, eliminated in the arrest of Dubois.
his wife and two daughters. The arrest
was made Tuesday afternoon, on COM
plant made before Justice Senter by All
Qul. All Qui claims to be cousin of
the deceased monaghan. He resides in
San Francisco, and is said to be influen-
tai with the Ling Young Company, un-
der whose auspices the present prosecu-
ton Is said to be initiated. Your readers
Will remember that this All Qui testified
before the Coroner's jury that he was
constantly IN communication with the
dead man and the dead man S friends in
| China; that deceased's relatives IN the
flowery Kingdom were urgent in their
requests for him to return to the family
roof tree, aud that All Gin was equally
anxious to return, only boss wouldn't
pay him his money" All Qui thinks
there has been foul play, and has sue
eeeded III creating an intense feeling in
Chinatown against Mr. Dubois and his
family, aud this feeling, it is feared, will
lead the Chinese to attempt violence un-
less the prisoners are held in custody.
Mr.. Dubois was anxious to have his
examination take place Immediately ON
his arrest, but there appeared to be some
new evidence which had not been worked
up far enough for the State to risk pro-
ceedlng at once; hensa the defendants
were committed to jail to await develop
ments, and the cause set for hearing at
10 o clock on Friday morning When
taken to jsil the defendants were sep
arated, Dubois being placed in a cell by
himself, his wife was assigned a solitary
angrtment, aud the two girls confined to-
:,is' Si 81 s .he uppe1 rooms of the
Jaif. DuDoIs himself appears very indig
nant that he should be arrested on the
complaint of barbarian who was in
san Francisco at the time the shooting
occurred. He expresses his desire for
full and searching investigation. He
seems to be fully aware of the intense
feeling against him throughout the COM
munity, and expresses his opinion that
such prejudice is entirely wrong. Mrs.
Dubois is very lachrymose, and cried
and bitterly bemoaned her fate when en-
terng the jail. She Is more cheerful to-
day, and is fully satisfied that she will
enjoy the hospitality OF Jailor Curtis but
short time longer. The girls exhibit
the elder, is quite civil to visitors, and
although she isn't exactly satisfied with
her position, Is willing to accept the sit
uation and make the most of 1t until she
is permitted to enjoy the free air again
thing which sne is confident will be as
soon as the legal folmality of prelimi-
nary examination is completed. She re-
grets very much that the officers should
think it their duty to eontine her in n
prison, and thinks it will attach re-
proach to her name that will be difficult
TO outliye. Her sister Alice, the ont
who had the narrow escape from the
Ghinaman' balls, is very sullen. or tC
use slang expression, mad as we
hen" She says nothing and does moth
ing but sit with her shawl drawn arounC
her shoulders and Nope. A little daugh
ter of five years accompanies Mis-. Du
bois in her confinement.
There appears to have been consider
able new testimony discovered in refer
onee to the case, but OF what nature ha
not yet transpired. Ii Is claimed on th,
streets that "A new fact that will be estab
lished Is that the pistol shots were free
early in the morning, before Duboi
claims to have come to town, and not a
noon as testified by the family before til,
coroner's jury; but ON this point, o
course everything is the merest specula
ton.
There was also a report yesterday af
ternoon that number Of our citizen,
had met and formed committee for tn,

within specified time. Ii there was
any truth in this report, the arrangement
must have been defeated by the arrest
