INFLUENCING A WITNESS.
The Serious Charge Made Against
Nathaniel Pryor Yesterday.


Judge Mckinley of the superior court
yesterday issued citation for Nathaniel
Pryor, who is charged with contempt of
court. There will be a hearing in the
case on February 26th.
The charge against Pryor arises out of
an affidavit made by Francis Rivas, one
OF the witnesses in the Alverado case
now on trial in department six. The
affidavit is as follows
II am and at all times in this affidavit
mentioned was duly subpenaed wit
ness for the plaintiff in the Alverado-
Rawson ct al. case. On the 18th Of Feb
ruary, 1892, at the city of Los Angeles,
| was approached by Nathaniel Pryor,
who asked me if was witness in said
case. replied that was witness for
the plaintiff, and that my testimony
would prove that she was a crazy
woman. Pryor asked me ii was get
ting any pay. / replied that had not
received any pay, but expected to get
my fees as witness. Pryor replied that
l would not get any pay from the plain
tiff's side, but that he was the represen-
tative of the other side, and that if
would testify for that side, he would see
that got my so regularly every day,
Pryor stating that the plaintiff had no
money, and that all the money was on
the other side. asked Pryor what he
wanted me to testify to, and he replied
he wanted me to say the plaintiff was
not crazy. refused to accede to his re-
quest and left him."
Pryor is also witness in the Alver-
ado case.

FOUND GUILTY.
The Verdict of the Jury in the Samon-
set Case

The Verdict of the Jury in the Samon-
set Case.
The Samonset seduction case was SUBJ
mitted to the jury shortly after A O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. During the morn
ing session of the court, Webb Smith
and John Craig wereplaced on the stand.
The prosecution then put Jeanne Eli
setche on the stand in rebuttal, and the
defense responded by putting Mrs.
Cuyas on in rebuttal. Mile. Elisetche
admitted on the stand that she had
visited Birds room at the Buena Vista
house to sell Bird book on English
and French, and at other times in the
company of Mrs. Cuyas. When the
latter was called in rebuttal she abso-
lutely denied that she had gone to
Birds room at any time with Miss
Elisetche.
The case was then submitted for argu-
ment, and @. N. Bledsoe opened for the
prosecution and Messrs. F. H. Howard
and Stephen White followed for the de-
fense, and Assistant District Attorney
McComas closed for the prosecution.
The case then went to the jury, who
retired, and at 7:30 O'Clock they rem
dered verdict of guilty.

Two Scared Indians.

Two Indians from the La Pointe reser-
walton arrived in Bayfield, a few days
ago paralyzed with fear. They told a
wonderful story of adventure. They
had started on a hunt on Madeline island
and intended to visit some friends. They
camped on spot about four miles from
the village. At midnight the Indians
were aroused by a fearful struggle. Be-
fore them were two men and woman
battling, the contestants being covered
with blood.
The Indians say the forms disappeared
afterward, but the sounds and groans
were kept up all night. People in that
vicinity claim there has been a terrible
murder committed on the island some
time in the past, and that the 'ghosts"
of the parties were seen by the Indians.

to Mr.. Hill, which in my mind is very
poor politics if they had any idea OF
nominating the ex-president. Mr.. Hill
was not slow in seeing his opportunity,
and he Immediately commenced sur
rounding himself with all the available
political material, not only in New York
but in other states. He has fought for
everything which is Democratic. He
has never been afraid to go to the front
himself and assume every responsibility
of winning or going down with the fight.
In 1890, when the fight was made for
the election of congressman, when Mr..
Clevelands own issue was at stake, the
leaders of the party appealed to him to
make some speeches in New York, Con-
necticut, New Jersey and Ohio, and he
refused to do it. Not one utterance
came from his lips in the interest of his
party that campaign. On the other
hand, Mr.. Hill went right into the fight.
He spoke in all the large cities in his
own state, made several in Connecticut,
Indiana, New Jersey and Ohio. AS
matter OF fact, Major Mckinley said
after his defeat for reelection to con-
gress that Mr.. Hill did it. This is one
of the things-and there are a great
many others just like it--that Mr.. Hill
has been doing which has given him
such tremendous pull with his party
in our state, and which has for the last
twelve months been extending to other
states, while Mr.. Cleveland has failed
to grapple with the political opportu
mites afforded him."

a REAL ESTATE TRADE.
A Legal Dispute Growing Out of the
Shrinkage of Ranch.

A Legal Dispute Growing Out of the
Shrinkage of a Ranch.
A case involving an important real
estate trade is on trial in the superior
court before Judge Shaw. 1t is the suit
of E. j. Durrell against HI. E. Fraley
ct al, and the attorneys for the COM
plainant are S. @. Hubbell and L. r.
Washburn, while Messrs. Wells, Hen
dershott and Carran are for the defense.
In addition Judge G. w. Pritchard of
New Mexico is here for the defense.
The suit grows out of an agreement
to trade the Crescenta hotel property
and certain real estate at Alhambra and
elsewhere for stock ranch in New Mex
leo. When Durrell went to New Mexico
he found that the ranch had shrunk
considerably from the proportions
originally represented to him by the
defendant, both as to the number of
acres and in the number of cattle which
were represented to be grazing thereon,
and he has consequently brought this
suit.

The Problem That Confronts Local
Freight Agents.
Here's a chance for General Agent
Crawley of the Southern Pacific to get
even with General Freight Agent Hynes
of the Santa Fe for his recent 9O-cent
cut on orange rates.
Down in Arizona and New Mexico, at
the military posts, a large number of
soldiers have been buried, and a num-
ber of these posts have been abandoned
by the war department. The govern
ment naturally does not wish the re-
mains of those who served it scattered,
so it has been determined to take up
the bones and transfer them to ma
tional cemetery at San Francisco.
All day yesterday the whole local
freight department of the Santa Fe was
struggling with skeletons, SO to speak,
as the government had asked for
freight rate on them. They were not
found on the classification and rate
sheets, and all that could be done was
to charge them as irst-class. The South
ern Pacific company is also figuring on
the business, and it may precipitate
rate war, which in this case would be to
the death, SO to speak.

Marriage Under Dimculties.

A. M. Phillips and Mile Burns, of
Coleridge, Neb., had to visit three states
before they were married.
The couple first went to Harrington to
be united, but the bride was too young
to meet the requirements of the Ne
braska law. On Sunday they started
for Yankton, being assured that they
could meet with no obstacles. Arrived
at the Missouri river they found the
bridge had been washed out only an
hour before. 1t was night before they
finally found boatman to take them to
the South Dakota bank, where they
found themselves two miles above the
town in willow thicket
Late at night they reached town and
were obliged to wait till morning before
calling on a justice of the peace On
Monday they learned to their disgust
that the laws of South Dakota, although
more liberal than those of Nebraska,
did not sanction the marriage of one so
young as the would be bride. They
were told to go to Iowa, which they did,
and there met with better success

fine would be the sentence. The only
