SANTA Rosa, Jan. 31.-A man named
Adams, whose occupation is sailor, told
a sensational story to Sheriff Allen to-
day about Bruggy and Espey. the es-
capped murderers. He says that last
Wednesday evening, the day after the
jail-break occurred in this city, he was
going down the coast on foot from Stew
arts Point, where he had been peeling
tanbark. When near the mouth of Rus
sian River he met two men on horseback,
who accosted him and asked whether he
had seen schooner lying off the shore.
He had not seen the schooner, but walked
along with the two men until he deserted
in the distance the dim outlines of small
two-masted schooner. The men had lit
tie to say, but seemed much pleased at
the sight of the vessel.
He described one of the men as large,
with black mustache. The other fellow
was of medium hight and smooth face.
After being on shore short time a
small boat came from the schooner. The
sailors in the boat seemed to know the
two men on horseback and were waiting
for them. On it being learned that Adams
was seaman, one OF the men in the boat
asked him to go aboard and help him an

willing to ship with tie vessel, and the

tain if he was bound for San Francisco.
but the former said no. The name Of the
schooner was the Ida May.
Adams knew nothing of the escape at
the time, though he is now certain the
men he saw were Bruggy and Espey.
Adams seemed truthful in his story, but
the Sheriff thinks there is little in it.

Treasury Department under existing cir
cumstances will be illegal and will carry
no constitutional or lawful obligation on
the Government for their payment"
German argued that the Republicans
were responsible for the present condi-
ton of the Treasury, but admitted that
silver legislation was in part responsible
for the situation.
Voorhees, contended that there was no
question as to the Secretary's power to
issue bonds. and any question of expend-
iture of money was subject for later con-
sideration after the money was secured
by the sale of bonds. He maintained that
the Secretary could use the money both
to redeem greenbacks and carry on the
Government.
Hawley said the success of the Demo-
cratic party was responsible for the fall
ing off in revenue and depletion of the
Treasury.
The bond question went over until to-
morrow, and at 5:25 the Senate adjourned.

Federal Court for receiver for the Colo
rado Midland Railroad, which company,
it AYERS, will default on the interest due
tomorrow on S4,SOO000 bonds. The
court has taken the matter under advise
ment.
This action makes evident the import
OF the gathering here within the past
three days of the receivers of the Atchi-
son system and the trust company repre-
sentatlves OF the Colorado Midland. The
Midland is a separately operated portion
of the Atchison system, the main line

interest is likely to be defaulted, the road
has first mortgage amounting to S6, ,250.-
600 and other mortgages OF $S6S, 900, be-
sides floating debts of $2,000,000, which
the management has been unable to
meet. The bonds are in the hands of the
Central Trust Company Of New ork as
trustees and this company has made ap-
plication for a receiver.
Pending decision, Judge Caldwell is
sued an injunction restraining all per-
sous from interfering with the road by
attachment or otherwise. The decision
will be rendered Friday. This action was
taken to permit the detaulting of the in
terest to become an accomplished fact.

SAN Francisco, Jan. 31.-The smana-
gers of the Midwinter Fair are congratu-
lating themselves on it's present financial
status. Despite the inclement weather
of the past two days the receipts have
been such as to show a large excess over
the disbursements. From present indi-
cations not doubt is entertained that the
fair will prove to be as great success
financially as artistically.

manager of the Vienna Prater, to be ten

for next week.
Information has been received of
twenty-five cars of exhibits for the Mid
winter Fair, which are still on the way
from Eastern points. They are all ex-
pected to arrive here during the present
week. so that it is safe to say that in two
weeks time every exhibit at the exposi-
ton will be in place.
The Electrical Engineer and the Chief
of the Department of Mechanical Arts
are working night and day preparing for
the grand illumination which is to take
place Saturday night. Everything will

Testimony Taken Before the Investi-

WASHINGTON, Jan. Sic. L. Near
thur, ex-senator of New York and editor
of the Troy Budget, was before the Senate
Hawaiian Investigation Committee to-
day. He went to Honolulu in March for
the purpose of investigating the situation.
He told the committee he went there
prepossessed in favor of the Queen, but
came away entirely convinced that the
revolution was justified and the Queen
unfit to rule the islands. Macarthur was
on the islands at the time Blount was
there, and stopped at the same hotel with
him. He declared Blount's report per-
version of facts as he had gathered them.
He also pronounced absurd the story of
Stevens conspiracy. Macarthur criti-
cised BlOunt's method of getting inform
alton, and declared that the most ordinary
newspaper man would have gone into the
subject far more thoroughly.
