He WANTS HIS DAUGHTER.
A Marin County Father and His Tale of
Bitter Wee.

Marin County Father and His Tale of
Bitter Wee.
SAN RAFAEL, Oct. A rather broken
hearted looking man. giving the name of
w. c. Farley and asserting that he was a
rancEer of Marin County, appeared this
morning before Justice of the Peace Duf-
fey and applied for and obtained war
rant for the arrest of Thomas Irving on
a charge of abduction. From the state
ment made by Farley when asking for the
warrant it appears that he is the father of a
od-looking daughter of II. who, up to last
Monday morning, was as good and dutiful
as she is good looking. Some time ago
Thomas Irving, carpenter, about % years
of age. obtained employment at his trade on
a building in course of construction on
ranch adjoining Farley's, and while work.
ing there met Miss Farley. There was
mutual attachment which soon ripened into
love. and on short notice Irving proposed.
Miss Farley was willing, but she was afraid
that her father would not consent.
Irving thought the matter over aud sug-
gested to the idol of his heart that she pack
her grip and place it where he could con-
veneDtly pick 1t up and carry it in the
direction of the North Pole, and that when
he was on the road she could follow him.
Their plans were laid, and the outcome was
that on Monday morning Irving Quit work
and Miss Farley bid farewell to the home of
her youth and all its associations TO share in
the fortunes and misfortunes of Irving in
years to come, or TO remain together until
the glamour of a romantic elopemsnt shall
have disappeared and she becomes plaintiff
in divorce case.
The warrant was placed in the hands of
the Sheriff of the county and a search was
made fer the runaway pair, but they were
not TO be found in Marin County. Late to-
night it was learned that the young couple,
xv4A kVv -s-sk
reading narrowing stories of love in cheap
sensational weekly papers. had gone north
and were resting in Petaluma. The father
wants his daughter and he will pursue her.

LONDON, Oct. 4. - Tennyson passed q
quiet night and seemed somewhat better
this morning. but became worse toward
noon, growing weaker.
The gravest fesrs are entertained regard
ing Lord TennysOn. Though hope is not
abandoned, 1t is thought probable that his
hours are numbered. While very low, he
occasionally takes nourishment.
Telegrams are flowing into Haslemere
from all parts of the United Kingdom aud
America.
At5 P. NJ. the patients condition was con-
eeded critical.
A telegram from Haslemere at II P. NJ.
says Lord Tennyson is quite PROSTATE. and
1t is not likely that he will survive tonight.
DR.. Dabbs. who is an old friend of the
poet. said tonight that his patient had slept
very little and is now seriously ILL., Sir An
drew Clarke has not seen the patient to-day.
Strenuous efforts have been made to secure
his attendance, but he is busy elsewhere,

walls inquiring as to Tennyson's condition.

MAKING SOUTH ALONG THE COAST.
The Bandits Seen in the Hills Near Monterey and
Believed to Have Plundered the Stores OF
q House in That Town.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

MONTEREY. Oct 4.-The Fresno train
robbers have turned up in this vicinity.
There can be no doubt about their identity
this time, for they were seen to-day by a
party OF quail-hunters in the hills near this
city. The hunters are positive that the
two men seen were the much sought-for
outlaws, so positive that they abandoned
their hunt and came into town at once to re-
port the matter 10 the authorities. The de-
scriptiOns given tally almost exactly with
those of Evans and Sontag sent out by the
authorities, and the men acted, upon COM
ing unexpectedly on the quaii-hunters. ex-
actly as though they were seeking to elude
pursuit and observation. There was no at
tempt to address the hunters or to precipi-
tate conflict with them, but there was
about the strangers something that told
the Monterey men that they would be by no
means safe subjects to tackle. At once upon
seeing the quaiLhunters the outlaws turned
abruptly fro m the course they were pursu-
ing. and making off over the hills were
soon out of sight in the brush. They were
heavily armed, and the Quail-hunters, hav-
Ing lost no train robbers that they knew of,
did not attempt TO pursue them. When
last seen they we're going rapidly over the
mountains in s0utheasterly direction.
Aside from the fact that the quail-hunters
are men we'll known in this town and men
upon upon whose veracity reliance can be
placed, the idea that the train-rObbers
are in this neighborhood gains proba-
billty from the fact that house situated in
the outlying portion of the town was en-
tered and robbed last night, the strangest
part of the robbery being that only the pam
try was looted and only provisions were
taken. OF course, if Evans and Sontag are
here they must be long way from their
base OF supplies, and as they cannot enter
the towns the plumber Of kitchens and pan
tries becomes a necessity.
The local officers have taken up the trail,
but have little hope of overtaking the sup
posed train robbers

The Democrats Anxious at the Outlook
In Many Sections.
WASHINGTON, Oct 4-The Democratic
Congressional Committee is making very
little use Of any issue except the force bill
in tie South, and are now congratuating
themselves that their documents on that
subject are very effective in the close dis
tricts. They meet great difficulty in their
efforts to discover what the Republicans
are doing in the South, but they have come
to the conclusion that the Republican Con-
gressiOnal Committee is not trying to do
much in the way of electing Southern Re-
Dublicans TO the House, but are trying to
trade with the independent candidates, CIV
ing their votes for Congress in exchange
for votes for the Electors.
Having come to this conclusion as TO the
Republican plan, they are talking very
confidently Of their large majority in the
next House, but are eorresp0ndingly
anxious about the electoral vote in certain
Of the Southern States. The Republicans
may not be very hopeful in the South, but
the Democrats are certainly very anxious
as TO the Congressional situation The
Democrats say that Secretary Mcpherson
had an Idea that the Republicans could
elect large number Of Republicans to the
House from the South, but that the ma
tional managers OF the party regarded IL as
more important 10 u6VOto all Oh lQtr 6ner-
giss to the Presidential election. and to
sacrifice Congressman wherever anything
could be gained for the Presidential ticket

the work Of the Democratic Congressional
committee say that they expect, Of course.

majority they have In this; but the loss will
not be as heavy as might naturally be ex-
pected.
Reports received here from Colorado, Ne
