STOCKTON. Oct. 90. - Montague FL.
Graham, the Del Monte Hotel clerk who
has been missing for several weeks, is oc-
cupying a cell once more in the stockton
jail Graham was found on the Sperry
ranch, five miles from this city to-day
and brought to town by local officers. He
does not yet appear entirely right mentally.
but is in good health bodily, having put in
several days breaking colts.
When found by the officers he was
dress ed in blue jeans and working indus
triously. He put on his good clothes and
accompanied them to town without any
resistance. The young man has the ap-
pearance of a person with heavy load OF
trouble resting on his breast. Graham sat
in the recep,ion-room of the County Jail
to-day looking very thoughtful, but not de-
jected. He smiled when told some one
wished to talk with him, and did not seem
averse to talking. To some of the queries
that were put TO him he made noreplies. but
looked at his feet and seemed wrapped in
the deepest thought.
He claimed that he remembered little Of
what had taken place from just prior to
the time he took the boat for Stockton
until he reached the ranch where he went
to work. He said he was doing" the
slums in San Francisco with some fellows,
IL his dim recollection was right, and that
one of his companions struck him on The
head, knocking him senseless, and then
robbed him. He supposed he wandered to
the steamer landing. He showed a con-
fusion on the side of his head which he
alleged was the result of the blow dealt
him in San Francisco. He subsequently
stated that he did not remember anything
about getting on the boat for Stockton nor
anything that occurred prior to that.
"What explanation have you to make of
your disappearance" was asked of the
young man.
"Well," he replied, 81 got to 'boozing
and lost my mind. that's al"
"Did you 60 straight to the ranch where
you were working when you got out of Jail
here ?''

"How does your head feel now ?'
"lt feels all right"
"Do you think you are perfectly sound
mentally again ?"
Certainly l am"
"Row long have you been In your right
mind"
''Oh, several days"
"Why did you not communicate with
your people and let them know where
you were ?"
81 did; wrote to my folks yesterday P''
''But why did you not write to them
sooner?"
81 wrote a week ago and gave the letter
to man on the road to mail and ne did
not do il ?"
"How long would you have stayed on
the ranch before going home if the officers
had not found you ?''
Until got some money"
''Do you know anything about breaking
horses ?''
''Pve been around horses all my life"
''Haye YOU made up your mind to quit
drin king "
That's what have. l don't intend 10
drink another drop, and l haven't drunk
any since left the Jail here"
How much money do you owe Cor
bett?" was asked as test of Graham
memory and mental capacity.

was the reply.

your mind that you have not told about?"
