MAXWELL ON AMERICAN SOIL. The Murderer of PreIIer Brought Back From New XeaIand-He Refuses To Make Any Statement.
 ST. LOUIS, Aug. 10.-A telegram was re- ceived by the chief of police late this after
 noon announcing the arrival in San Francisco
 of the St. Louis detectives in charge of the
 murderer Maxwell on the steamship Zealand
 ia of the Pacific Mail line. When the steam
 ship was off the city's front the revenue cut
 ter having on board Chief Crowley of the
 San Francisco police, Captain Lees of the
 detective force and Sergeant Bruner ran
 alongside and these officials ascended the
 ladder over the side and went to Maxwell's
 stateroom where he has been confined during
 the entire passage from New Zealand under the surveillance of the St. Louis detectives. It had been arranged that Maxwell's bag gage should be searched on board the steam CT and that he should at once be taken ashore. His baggage was brought on deek and searched by the customs searchers at the gangway. Nothing dutiable to prevent the passage of his satchels was found and the parcels were low cred over the side. When these had been received Maxwell was escorted to the gang way and with one detective preceding and one following he went down to the boat the swinging ladder. It would have been inn possible to descend it safely had he been manacled. On the passage from New Zea. land he was manacled at night and the two detectives stood watch over him day and night. He caused the detectives no incon- venience and was apparently much at ease as at any time. Maxwell as he descended the ships side and took seat in the cabin of the Hartley suurrounded by the St Louis and San Francisco officers To ,ked like smaller man than the one described to the San Francisco police and for whom they searched in this city. His face had little color in it. There were dark rings under his eyes. His appearance indicated neglect, but his manner was unembarrassed. When he was first accosted ill his stateroom on the Zealan- dia he said he was Frenchman and native of Paris, aged thirty-six and that his name was Daguier. When reminded that he had been known under other names he said that mattered nothing for other men had been known to have more than the name. He said only that he had known c. Arthur Pfel- Ter, but beyond this lie would not say any thing which might in the most remote degree bear upon the crime fof which he is to be tried ii St. Louis. t1 have been advised by my attorney iii New Zealand tt say h8thiHg about the ease," WAS his itVafia B1e reply Co all questions pitt t6 him by fe.
