tug Relief. and accompanied by Lieuien-
ant Stoney. U. S. N, Mr.. Baldwin and
assistants, proceeded to where the Ben
nlngton was at anchor, near the Farallones,
and formally arrested Antonio Ezeta and
those who sought refuge on the waTship
with him.
There was touch of pathos to the scene
that was enacted on the Bennington's
:: decks. General Bustsmente was at the
rail when Dr. Calderon boarded and close
behind him was EZeta. General Antonio
viewed the newly made Consul sharply for
a few moments, seemingly recognizing in
: him the old enemy of bygone years. He
held his head. not defantly nor in a
churish way but apparently as if sud.
deuly stricken with great sorrow.
In short. it was noticeable that as the
two bitter enemies met face to face An-
tonic Ezeta recognized how completely he
was at the mercy of the man VINO has in
tmated that he despises the ex-rulers of
San Salvador and wants to get even with
them.
= General Bustamente shivered in the
chilling blast that crept up his backbone
:: with great determination, and threatened
to deprive him of his back hair. He fol-
lowed his chiefs retrealing figure with his
= eye, and called to him In Spanish.
:. Ezeta turned and approached in digni-
!: fed manner, but he disdainfully refused
= to recognize the fact that Caldgron's silk
hat, bedimmed with fog, was careeped
. toward him in hostile sort of way.
Ezeta saluIed Marshal Baldwin WIN
suddenly remembered that he had paner
: to serve. and put on his spectaces to LOOK
for it..
Calderon read the warrant, and General
Bustamente CALAMITY undertook to assume
all the responsibilities charged therein
Judging from the way in which he an.
~pear6d to think that he alone was the oh
'irct of the especial attack Of the Unitsd
States Government. He hung his head
and struggled desperately with his de-
corum, his equilibrium and the wind.
80 Generals Bolanos, COlochO and Cienfue.
COS were summoned and did appear.
Bolanos was Indifferent, Colocho was
more so, and Cienfuegos inclined to be a
:trife naughty, but still polite and atten.
tive in his bearing.
While the papers were being read the
clanking of anchor-chans was heard, for
even before The Marshals ct al. had had
time to act, the clockwork Of The gunboai
had been set in motion and she was pre-
pairing TO come from out of the mysterious
fog that has covered her movements for
eight days or more. The black smoke
commenced to pour out of her funnel aud
Captain Thomas was almost ready to pro-
coed.
Marshal Baldwin and his assistants re-
= NAMED on board the Bennington, DR..
Calderon went back TO the tug and the
; great mystery of the Ezeta-Baldwin-
Calderon affair was exploded without sven
as much of conclusion as would have been
caused by scent tireeracker.
At 1:30 p. NJ. the Bennington passed
through the heads, steamed direct to tee
ouaran tine station of Angel Island and
dropped anchor.
DR.. LawIoT. quarantine officer, was soon
on board, for he had been waiting for the
ship TO pass up that he might relieve her
from quarantine as soon as possible by
boarding her and having done with his in
spection without delay.
General Bustamente and Marshal Bald
win were inspected first, and when found
to be free from any salt water ailments,
the ships company was called to quarters
