SAN Francisco, Jan. 15.-Detective
Woods, of Denver, is in this city, claim
ing that he has been employed by
friends OF DIR. Graves, now under sem
tence of death at Denver for the murder
of Mrs. Barnaby. He says that he has
thirty atfidavits from people in this
city, showing that Mrs. Barnaby was
not poisoned by DIR. Graves. These
affidavits, while not making direct
charges, insinuate that Mrs. Worrell,
Mrs. Barnaby's nurse, did the poisoning !;
that Mrs. Worrell is known to have pur-
chased poison here. Detective Woods
further says that he has discovered that
strychnine was purchased here ostensi-
bly, for Mrs. Barnaby, the purchasers
stating that it was wanted to poison
rats. As Mrs. Barnaby boarded at
hotels all the time she was here, it is
not probable she would use strychnine
for such purpose. The detective claims
that he knows the party who pur-
chased this poison. Another affidavit is
from servant at the Arrowhead Springs
hotel, San Bernardino county, where
Mrs. Barnaby stopped. 1t is stated that
the servant heard Mrs. Worrell say she
wished Mrs. Barnaby would die; that
she was great trouble to her, and that
the only reason che stayed with her,
was the hope that Mrs. Barnaby would
leave her some money in her will.

LA CRESCENTA.

Several of our residents have been
suffering from la grippe the last two
weeks-among them your correspondent.
Professor White has been quite i'll with
the malady and is still unable to work.
Mr.. Scherb is better and is working
about his place, and all the others are
improving.
Mr.. and Mrs. Will Fawcett have re-
moved to Whittier where they have rel
atives. They are greatly missed from
our midst, as they had gained the warm
esteem of all.
Mr.. Fawcett still retains his nursery
stock in La Crescenta and is selling
many OF his young orange and peach
trees.
Mrs. Fraley, who was SO badly
poisoned with poison oak, is now much
better. though for time her suffering
was intense, both eyes being swollen
shut and her whole body affected in a
severe manner. 1t was caused by burn
ing the roots in the stove and breath
ing the smoke.

THE DALTON DIVORCE CASE.
The Evidence That Was Given
Yesterday.


Yesterday.
The Dalton divorce case was submitted
to Judge Clark yesterday without argu-
ment by counsel. Both parties to the
suit. have introduced testimony which
proves beyond any doubt that the
allegations of each are in the main well
founded.
Both want a divorce. Mrs. Dalton
filed her complaint first, but her hus-
band came up promptly with COM
plant founded on about the same
grounds set forth by his wife.
Dalton was on the stand again yester--
day, and told OF a number OF additional
incidents which show that their house
was anything but pleasant one. He
claims that he has good grounds for sus-
pecting that Mrs. Dalton has not been
faithful. He did not doubt her fidelity
until one day last summer, when he
happened in the house while friend OF
the family was there. This friend, a
man named Ingalls,, was lying on a
lounge. Witness saw Mrs. Dalton pass
near him and Ingalls, stretched out his
arms toward her. Witness spoke OF this
to his wife, who said that he had no
reason to suspect anything wrong. She
insisted that there was no mesnlng to
Ingalls, movement, that che was only
stretching himself"
On cross examination witness re-
peated his story of frequent quarrels be-
tween himself and wife. He said Mrs.
Dalton told him he was too lazy to live,
and that his jealousy was without rea-
son. She had also accused him Of be-
ing entirely too intimate with Spanish
woman while she was absent on an east
ern trip.
A witness to the trouble the couple
had about some cattle was placed on the
stand by the defense. His name is
johnson. A man to whom Dalton sold
the cattle came to the ranch to get them,
when Mrs. Dalton put in an appearance
and announced that the stock belonged
to her, and she would shoot the
man if he made an attempt
to take them away. She had a
revolver in her hand, and her manner
was very determined. Johnson and
the man who purchased the stock went
away, leaving Dalton with his wife. The
witness swore that Dalton did not an
tagonize his angry spouse.
Both parties claim title to consider
able property, but the question of prop
erty rights will be decided by another
suit. Judge Clark reserved his de-
Cision.

Inhaled Gas.

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 15.-A man regis
tering as II. M. Duncan, but giving no
address, died at the Western hotel at 2
p. M, today, from the effect OF gas in
haled from an extinguished burner.
From papers, including tax receipts
from Glenn county, he is supposed to
have been a resident of that county,
and man of some means. He was a
man about 80 years of age, nearly six
feet tall, dark brown hair, with heavy
faxen mustache; a scar on the
left side of the chin, and was
dressed in appearance as q well-to-do
farmer. He had been around the hotel
for three or four days and been drink
ing, but not heavily. He went to bed
at midnight and shortly after noon was
heard groaning. On entering his room
the gas was found escaping and he was
too far gone for resuscitating.

he is quite a connoiseur. 1t is even

opposition to Judge Woods nomination

Republican senators, and it will doubt-
less be confirmed in course of time.

GRAIN FUTURES.

The attempt to legisate against dealing
in grain futures has not progressed very
far in the present congress, but investiga-
ton OF the subject on behalf of the farm
ers has brought out some rather interest
ing figures. The sales OF wheat in New
York during January, 1892, amounted to
above 100000 bushels, while the re-
ceipts were only 3,273,7 bushels. The
sale OF spot or actual wheat were 3,5l5, 900
bushels the sale of imaginary wheat was
1856, 900 bushels-nearly one-sixth the
entire crop of the United States. In the
production of these official figures the
friends of the farmers have certainly
scored strong point against the brokers,
for it is unquestionably fact that the
foreign markets follow the prices as set
by the American spectators, and thus it
is that the actual supply and demand has
paratively little to do with fixing the
price of grain. From the standpoint Of
common sense therefore, it is probably well
that there should be placed on the statute
books law that will forbid men from
selling what they haven't got and buying
that which they do not want, and can't
get after they buy it.
