CASTOR AsHE TALKS.
What He Says About the Alleged Plot to
Murder.


CASTOR Ashe was seen last night at his
residence on Sacramento street. When
informed of the nature of the news he said !:
II don't know anything about the affair
Porter went south this afternoon, but
whether to Fresno or MERGED l cannot tell
l only saw him for few minutes to-day,
and lie did not say word about the Terry
business. i should think il probable that
my brother, being sole guardian, would like
to be present when the safe was opened,
and as lie would not reach Fresno anyhow
until late tonight he could not we'll have
been there.
Il heard Mammie Pleasant had sent some
person down 10 the Terry residence for
some reason OF other, and perhaps Porter
authorized my other brother, W. l.. Ashe
who is down south, too. 10 open the safe,
but that is unlikely, as ] think the latter is
at MERGED, but that isn't so very far from
Fresno. The friends of the Terry family
have always maintained that there was a
regularly concerted plot To murder the
Judge, and there may be some papers
throwing some light on the affair. Mrs.
Terry was, however. always SO very reti-
cent in her private affairs that hardly any
one knows much about her papers. She has
stacks of papers, more than any private
person | ever knew. These may be COM
pilstions of her own. written since she was
attacked by her mental maiady.
