JACKSON. Oct. 1S.-In the Evans trial
to-day Mrs. O'Neil testified that Evans
told her after the shooting that Tovey's
fate was good enough for him.
Sheriff Thorn detailed the facts of the
pursuit and arrest. He followed him to
the Stanislaus River and found that he
was giving his name as Gordon.
Early on the morning, of July 18th he
arrested him at Rocks house near Ca
manche. Evans fired a shotgun several
times near the house and then went in
side. Thorn and his deputies entered
when the defendant was at breakfast He
was visibly agitated at the sight of the
officers, and denied having any weapons
or having fired any gun that morning.
The officers found ono shotgun hid
among the bedclothes where Evans slept.
Defendant when cornered admitted the
firing of weapon that morning, and got
another shotgun which was hid outside,
which he gave to the Sheriff as the gun
used.
The prosecution called Justice Goldner,
the examining magistrate, to prove the
confession of guilt made by defendant,
voluntarily made. The jury was there
upon excused to enable each side to in =
troduce evidence for or against the adj
mission of the confession.
The defendant was put on the stand.
lie said that a day or two after his in
generation at San Andreas be was moved
from one cell To another, and that after
such removal he was piled with opium
and whisky, taking two pills day. They
were given by Spanish Jack and man
called Patty" He had never tasted
opium before. They told him the pills
would make him sleep we'll. He took
twelve more altogether, and the effect
was to stupify him so that he could re-
member nothing after three doses.
When under the influence of the drug a
paper was brought him, and he had some
recollection of copying it and signing it.
He knew nothing of its import. The de-
tense contended that admissions made
under such conditions should not be
introduced, as defendant was not account
able and his condition was brought about
by drugs supplied by those in authority.
Under cross-eXamination it was shown
that his memory was not such a blank as
he wished to make out, and the court will
rule on the admissibility of the confess
sion in the morning

FRESNO, Oct. 1S.-At the convention of
the State Farmers Alliance this morning
the Committee on Resolutions made re-
port denouncing the monopolies Of labor
saving implements and other wealth
producing agencies as being directly re-
sponsible for the over reproduction and
over-supply of labor, and an expression
of opinion that responsible persons
should either be compelled to render
back to society all special privileges or to
care for the unemployed.
The committee also condemned the i'm
piled threat of the State authorities to re-
spond to the cries of hunger from the un-
employed with bullets, bayonets and
Calling guns, instead of bread or work.
Another resolution submitted and
adopted condemned all projects looking
to the cession of arid lands by Congress
to States and Territories as scheme of
corporation and monopoly agents to gain

provide for Government control of these
lands for the benefit of actual settlers.

The Democratic Steering Committee

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.- The Demo-
cratic Steering Committee of the Senate
was IN session a great part of the day
trying TO devise scheme for settlement
of the differences existing on the inan-
cial question on that side OF the chamber,
and appearances at the close OF the day in
dicated the progress made. 1t is asserted
that the committee has progressed far
enough TO prepare rough draft OF bill
which is to be sumitted to the Senate as
soon as the majority of the Senators can
be consulted upon its merits. Mem bers
of the committee refused 10 confirm the
report, as did also those with whom they
consulted. y story is aiioat also that the
bill which is to be submitted would sim
ply provide for an extension of the pres
ent law for a year from the first OF next
July.
one great obstacle which apparently
stands i'll the way of progress is the atti-
tude of the repeal advocates. 1t is stated
that an effort is being made to bring these
members to see the importance of ii set
tlement OF the question, and the scheme
TO bring about party measures will be
dropped If this is unsuccessful, and the
Republican Senators will be asked to join
the Democrats so as to make d majority
OF the Senate.
The Democratic conference for the pres
ent has given way to a consultation of
Senators individually, and it Will not be
decided upon till late in the week, fiat all.
Discussing the question this afternoon,
Senator Pettigrew said: The Democrats
as party cannot agree, nor can the Re-
publicans as party. There are thirty
eight Republicans, Democrats
and PopulisJs-against repeal, and eight
counted with the repealers who are anxi-
Gus for compromise When either of

PARIS, Oct. 1S.-The French news
papers publish long comments upon the
sympathy expressed by the Russians at
the death of Marshal MacMahon, and
seem greatly pleased at it. The Cars S
message of thanks to President Carnot
for the courtesies extended the Russian
sailors at Toulon and Paris have also
greatly pleased the newspapers of this and
other cities of France, and it may be said
that France and Frenchmen feel more
confident to-day in the stability of the
republic and in the strength Of their army
and navy than they have done for twenty
years past.
1t will thus be seen that the visit of the
Russians to France had decidedly brac-
ing effect upon France; but it is an open
question whether this will not precipitate
the long-eXpected European war.
France is now herself again; hot-tem-
pered, toucAy, extra-sensitive France;
chivalrous to a very high degree, proud
OF her army and navy. strong in her
likes and dislikes, and quick to resent an
injury, whether real or fancied. Thus,
France is more dangerous to the peace of
Europe than she was one week ago.
After all is sifted down to the bottom
facts, all the wild, eXtravagant enthusi-
aSm shown by the French people toward
their Russian guests means but one thing.
The extreme delight France feels at the
idea that Russia is ready 10 fight with her
is not the satisfaction a nation would feel
at the prospects Of peace in the future.
The fighting enthusiasm displayed at
Toulon and at Paris is the enthusiasm OF
1870, when "a Berlin' rang from the
Mediterranean to the British Channel
and from the Atlantic to the Prussian
frontier. Those people who went wild
yesterday cheering and shouting ''Vive
la Russiap' were in their hearts crying
"Viye la Revanchei" and so, in spite of
the Czar's warning, in spite of Carnot' S
orders, the spirit of war is stirring up
the enthusiastic millions of France and
urging them on TO battle in spite of their
leaders.
Behind all those toasts to the peace and
prosperity of France was a thinly con-
cealed toast to the brotherhood in arms
expected to exist between Russia and
France when the war trumpet calls all
Europe to arms. Those toasts were
toasts of war and not toasts of peace, and
nobody knows this better than the cool,
calculating, wakeful minds OF Germany,
Italy. Austria and England.
Some peaceful demonstrations are more
dangerous than warlize outbursts. The
enthusiasm shown by the French people
is a clear-cut demonstration of this. 1t
shows with what wild enthusiasm France
would at a moments notice go to war
with Russia by her side. 1t shows the
real feeling at the bottom of French
hearts. and the European ship of State
will need very careful handling in this
cyclonic weather in order to avert clash
ing and fearful shipwrecks.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-It is stated at
the State Department that the report of a
Chinaman acting as Consul of the United
States at Annoy. China, is incorrect. Ac-
cording to dispatches on file in the de-
partment, it appears that when the Con-

quested DR.. Gruenwelt. the German Con-
sui officer at that place. to act as Consul
for the United States. DR.. Gruenwelt
having to go to his own office one day
while acting in this capacity, he left the
Chinese interpreter as deputy in charge
of the office Of the American Consulate,
and from this it is supposed the impress
sion got abroad that Chinaman was

OPENING THE CHEROKEE STRIP.

Ihe House Committee Investigating
Charges of Fraud Against Clerks.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 1S.-The hearing
before the Committee on Public Lands on
the proposition to investigate the opening
of the Cherokee Strip took a rather SEN
sational turn to-day. Commissioner
Lamoreux, with much feeling and great
earnestness, said after reading the charges.
that he deemed it the duty of the COM
mission to appear in behalf of these
sixty-one clerks. The charges are not
specific, but were newspaper clippings.
No single man was named, no place or
time of occurrence specified. 1t was no
light thing to charge sixty-one clerks
with dishonorable acts. SiXty-tive per
cent. of them were Republicans. Many
had been in the employment of the Gov
ernment for years, and were residents of
Washington, with honorable places in
the community.
Commissioner Lamoreux presented
affidavits from every man in charge of
booth, and from these he showed how
impossible it would be for the officers OF
the Government to accept bribes. He
read letters from j. f. Molone and Mr..
King, Register at Perry, regarding the
matter. In the letters it is said that Dis
trict Attorney Speed, a Republican, was
stirring up the matter for political effect
and was being assisted by Stone, his
partner and assistant Stone was LAM
oreuX' immediate successor.
Commissioner Lamoreaux read a letter
from A. P. Swineford, late Governor Of
Alaska, but now Inspector of the Gem
eral Land Office, showing that the charges
were not true and were made for political
effect. Other letters making counter
charges against the land openings under
the Republican administration were read.
Assistant Attorney-General Hall di-
rected attention mainly to assertions Of
Delegate Flynn in the House and before
the committee that the orders Of the
former Administration were changed for
the present. He showed this to be i'm
possible.
The probabilities are that the state
ments made by Commissioner Lamoreaux
and General Hall will put an end to the
investigation.

Then followed an interesting feature.
DR.. McCarty brought out the phono-

the country flourishing in civilization

This concluded the exercises. In the
