FRESNO, April sheriff Scott ar
rived tonight from Reedley on q freight
train, having in custody Prof. w. A.
Sanders. The arrest was made at Sand
ers' place this afternoon at O'Clock, and
not last night, as reported.
Detective lawson swore to a complaint
charging Sanders with tho murder OF
William Wootton, and Sheriff Scott
served the warrant
Sanders had little to say, and acted ae
If he expected it. On their arrival here
he was taken to the sheriG's private
room, where he made statement in
the presence OF Sheriff Scott, Assistant
District Attorney Walser and Constable
Street OF Reedley. The statement was
taken down in shorthand. 1t was
by no means a confession, but mere
ly told over again the story OF
the visit OF Graves and Knauech to
Wootton's place, and the land transac.
tion that took place there ON February
lst. 1t is almost impossible to follow
the professor, as every time he talks of
the case be tells it differently and one
is more fnyEtihed than ever.
He acknowledged that be went to Mo-
jave on March 18th in answer to sum-
mons from Knausch, who wanted him
to look at mine in the desert. When
Sanders got to Mojave he met Graves
instead, Knsusch being absent. He be-
came afraid of Graves, and got an i'm
preston he wanted to get him (Sanders)
to 60 out into the desert and then kill
him.
Detective Lawson came up after Sher-
if Scott with new find. II ia a box
containing Wootton's papers and was
found in Sanders trunk. 1t had first
been hidden in stone wall on Sanders
place, where the hired man saw it, but
it disappeared and WAS not seen again
till found by the detective.
While there are many damaging cir
cumstances it is believed here that no
trouble viii be experienced in securing
Professor Sanders release on writ OF
habeas corpus, as there is no evidence
that Wootton has been murdered or is
dead. Sanders appears to be giving
way under the strain, and many believe
him insane even now. He cannot tell
the same story twice. 1t ia probable
that one reason for his arrest was to got

The CoxeV Movement Discussed In the
senate.
WAsHrN' SToN, April 1S.-The Coxey
movement received it's fret recognition
at the han'l ls of the senate today. The
question was brought up in executive
session and was under consideration for
an hour and half, the senate remaining
in session un til 6 80. No formal action
was taken and the matter was consid-
cred very IRE gularly upon q suggestion
that there we re sevsrel organizations OF
men approac hing Washington for the
avowed purpose of demanding recogni.
tion in the way of legislation, it be-
hooves congress to decide what it would
do in case of the arrival of the large
numbers OF men with the purpose OF
Mr.. Coxey's followers in view.
Senator Hsrrie, speaking for the COM
mlttee on rules, replied to the eugges-
tion by saying that the committee had
had the question under consideration,
and after an examination OF the statutes
bearing on the question OF the invasion
OF the capitol grounds by organized
boc1es OF mer,, had reached the conclu-
sion that the laws now on the statute
book made apple provision for the pro-
tection of the buildings.
The impression seemed general that
the regularly organized police would be
csbabie of ex ecuting the laws during the
presence of the army, and that it would
not be neceH ary to make any special
show OF armed forces.
Four local sympsthizers with the
Coxey movement called upon the presi-
dent this afternoon to request that the
Washington barracks be thrown open
for the accommodation OF the Common
veal army during its stay in the city.
There are accommodations for several
thousand men in the barracks.

Local Notos.


There seems to be no doubt that the
public will be treated to a genuine
bull fight at the Spanish tiesta which
begins next Saturday, for four days, at
Coronado.
Mr.. Gregory, assistant general pas-
senger agent of the Santa Fe, was IN re-
ceipt of telegram yesterday from the
management of the fiesta. It stated
they could guarantee the public that the
bull fights would be most interesting
and exciting and not the tame affairs
usually produced at attempted rovivals
of the Spanish amusement. The ami.
mails have been sent from Lower Cali
fornia, are big and vicioue, ordinary
fences seeming no obstacle to them, and
it was only after desperate struggle of
"a hours that they were safely corrsled
in the exhibition grounds at Coronado.
Every preparation has been made to
reproduce this exciting sport with all OF
the old time details and msgnificence OF
the Spaniards. There are a number of
Spanish vaqueros who will be on hand
to make themselves obnoxious to the
bulle, and some fiery encounters are an
ticipRted. Mr.. Gregory stated that this
was the kind OF entertainment the
members of the International Associa-
tion of Press clubs desired to witness
while in Southern California two years

necessary and did. in fact, guarantee
$500, but as their time was limited he
