TARANTo, Oct. 16.-The proposed rem
devious of the British Mediterranean
squadron here, beginning to-day, is re-
garded everywhere in Italy as a counter
demonstration to the Russian squadron's
visit to Toulon, and is being made mat
ter of great demonstration. The people
are flocking to town from every quarter,
and the place, which has only q, 900 in
habitants, has already $4,000 visitors, and
lodgings and provisions have risen to
phenomenal prices. A first-class dis
patch boat, with eight prominent naval
officers on board, has gone to welcome
the visitors. Of course Great Britain is
endeavoring to give the impression that
the visit is not in any way connected with
the Toulon visit.
THE SQUADRON ARRIVES.
TARANTo, Oct. 16.-The British Medi-
terranean squadron arrived here at noon,
escorted by the Italian warship Italia.
The visiting warships were saluted by
the forts, and replied in kind. Salutes
were then exchanged between the Brit
ish Admiral, Sir Michael Culme-
Seymour, and Admiral Turf of the Ital-
ian vessels. The banks of the canal and
every point of vantage in the neighbor-
hood were crowded with people, who
heartily cheered the British vessels as
they passed IN. Inc British OfhcerS
landed from the warships this afternoon
and proceeded to the Princess Isabella
Club, where q reception was held in
honor of the visiting sailors.
An immense concourse of people lined
the route leading from the water's edge
TO the club. On all sides unbounded en-
thusiasm was shown. The city and har-
Dor was illuminated this evening in the
most elaborate manner possible. Bands
were to be heard plaYinq on all sides and
the national anthem of Great Britain was
sounded high and above all other music
at Taranto. The real fetes, however, do
not begin until tomorrow. The news
papers of Italy generally join in the cor
dial greeting to the British fleet.

Trial of William Evans Begun at
jackson, Amador County.
JACKSON, Oct. 16.-The trial of William
Evans for the murder of Michael Tovey,
Wells-Fargo's messenger, who was shot
dead from a stage while making the up
trip from lone to Jackson on the 18th of
June last, was commenced in the Supe-
ror Court this morning. District Attor-
ney Rust is conducting the prosecution,
and D. E. Spagnoli is the only attorney
for the defendant. Between twenty and
thirty witnesses are present, most of
them from outside of the county. Little
difficulty was experienced in securing a
jury, only ten challenges being exercised.
From the District Attorneys opening
statement, the prosecution expects to
make out a strong case against the ac-
cused. 1t was stated that witness saw
Evans hiding in the grass about half a
mile from the fatal spot before the shoot
ing occurred. The same party on visit
ing the place of concealment several days
thereafter picked up pipe. which num-
ber of persons are prepared to testify be-
longed to Evans. After the murder, it is
claimed that Evans changed his name
and went south, asking for work, but de-
clining it when offered to him. He
avoided highways as much as possible,
and was continually talking about the
killing of Tovey to parties he met. These
facts, together with his admissions of
guilt and identification by the stage
driver, are relied upon to form an ire
sistible chain to bring the crime home to
the defendant.
d. c. Radcliff, the stage-driver. was the
first witness. He positively identified
Evans as the man who shot Tovey.

utterly inadequate, and fully $1,000 men

lay in the dispatch of sufficient force to
reinforce the troops now at Mellilla is ex-
plained by the fact that the Government
here is desirous of awaiting the result of

business exactly as heretofore, and it de-

WASHINGTON, Oct. 16.-Officers of the

settled that the department will select
some competent and experienced person
as counsel TO represent it in all suits and
other proceedings that will inevitably re-
suit from placing the road in receivers
hands. The interest account with the
Government is said to have grown as
large, if not larger, than the principal.
There is an equal number of first mort
gage bonds which were issued by the

RIVERSIDE, Oct. 16.-A terrible double
tragedy occurred here at noon to-day.
The facts of the case are as follows: w.
E. Wrisley, who has been separated from
his wife for some time past, and who was
under indictment for arson, went to the
house occupied by Mrs. Wrisley, and,
after stabbing her to death, then went to
his room in the Park Hotel and blew the
top of his head off with a revolver.
Wrisley and his wife have not lived in
harmony, and a good many expected that
their differences would terminate as they
have.
Wrisley, before marrying the woman
he killed to-day, was respected, hard
working man, but the unfaithful conduct
of the wife has led up to the present
bloody tragedy.
The dead woman was in the Police
Court last Saturday on charge of ''dis-
orderly conduct" and was under orders
from the police to leave town, a move
she intended making to-day. She for
merly resided in San Francisco, where
her mother resides.
