A BIT or WAR.

A California snerin Trying to Capture .
Mexican 0uubOat.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. "a few days
ago q Mexican, named ClodonierO Gotta,
was arrested under extradition papers on a
charge of felony. A writ ofhabeas corpus
was got ont, and the judge of tho superior
court ordered the commander Of the Mexi-
can gunboat Democratic, to whose charge
the prisoner was turned over, to produce
him in court.
The commander refused, alleging want
Of jurisdiction. The court then sent the
sheriff to the gunboat with two warrants
one for ClodonierO and the other
for the arrest Of the commander for
contempt of court. The shcriff's party
left the wharf in two boats. On arriving
within half cables length Of the Demo
crata they were hailed and ordered off. A
squad of marines mounted tho bridge and
brought their rifles to bear and swivel
gun was trained on the boats.
The Democrata then sent off boat with
q squad of marines. and after brief con-
ference the sheriff was taken aboard the
gunboat where the sheriff served his war
rant for the arrest of her commander. The
latter refused to so and retired to his state
room, and when the sheriff attempted to
follow, a maine threatened to run him
through with a bayonet. The sheriff then
retired and came ashore. The Democrat.
now has steam up, but it is
believed she will not bc permitted
to leave. Tho United States steam
the Pensacola and Alaska are
outside of the Democratic and a
boat from the former boarded the Mexican
sunboat soon after Sheriff Desmond left,
but the nature Of the conference is not
known.
