Whatever evidence there is connected
with the DUPONT barn-burning cases
that would tend TO connect the Clards
straight out with the crime 1t certainly
has not been made public yet. Moth
ing that has been publicly produ ced,
so far, would convict the Clarks before
a New Castle county jury, though
there was merely enough to hold tho
parties for trial and send the case to
the GrandJury. Doubtless there were
good reasons on the part of Attorney
General Biggs for keeping back the
most important testimony for which
he deserves tho fullest credit.
The Clarks may have been bad peo-
pie, indeed II they are the incendiaries
as they arc said to be. they are the very
worst kind of people, but as the ex-
element Of the dramatic arrests wear
away the people will think more calm-
ly over the matter. and give it an im-
partial consideration. Confronted
with it in its worst aspects what do
they see?
A family of three persons arrested
upon suspicion OF having fired three
barns belonging to the DuPonts. The
evidence against them, what is it, A
suspicion that as they were either dis
charged or voluntarily left the employ
of the DuPonts, and that as some sus-
picious persons congregated at their
house they knew something about the
fires.
Then followed the employment OF
paid detectives, who were over year
in working up the case. They cajoled
the Clarks into leaving the employ.

Allen, who, like every other wonder of this wonder la ud. is called "Colonel" is connected whh the Sentinel His story of his finds appeared exclusively" in the Sentinel and San Fransisco Examiner This riled the Times man and he con- cluded to go into the exclusive" bus iness himself. He got hold of one of the party of a dozen who accompanied the "Col" on his trip and induced him to tell the true story" of the party's experience and here it is as published exclusively in the Times"
 Sulphur Beds, Oct g, 1891.
 Editor Times-we arrived here safely but have been in great distress the past week. Our cook, who is near sighted, fried an old copy of the Yuma Sentinel under the impression that it was tripe; the mistake not being dis covered until the entire mess was con stunned, inc whole party was thrown into gastric conyulsions which neces- sitated an unexpected delay here.
 We spent a week in the volcano region. The largest of these blowers is extinct, or should be as it is not do ing any spouing at present. This one we called the Colonel" from the fact that it is always dry. Our scull- ion, ragged urchin of thirteen sum- mers, clsmbered to the top of this one and losing his footing in the crater disappeared from our view. We thought we had lost him, but inside of fifteen minutes he was thrown out of volcano a quarter Of mile distant clad n velyeteen suit and pair of patent leather slippers. This fact alone should convince the most in credulous of the wonderful resources of this country.
 Lying mile to the east of the ''Col- one" is 8 volcano ejecting wOrsted suits and cameps hair shawls. This one also threw out a COW and her calf and three frkins of butter during our stay. If this volcano was properly milked, think it would give down results highly beneficial to this local ity and also to Yuma. A short dis tance south of this natural marvel is ! A mine of cuhe sngsE and Gansr-y ei James Means s3 shoes.
 During our stay one of the party killed an antelope near the bank of the Hardy. Iu its stomach we found three trade dollars and two boxes Of fish hooks. Of course the discount Of trade dollars would act as an incubus on the raising of antelope in this country, but the breed might be i'm proved so as to grow standard coin or possibly spanish dCubloohs. This is A country of wonderful resources, and were I to tell you half the truth you would not half believe me. We ex- pect to be we'll enough to travel to- morrow.
