The Unhappy Plight of a California Man Serving Term In the

Ru utha 4 ssnniatad praSs

By the Associated Press.
 SACRAMENTO, Cal., Sept. PA requi- sition from the governor of Michigan on Governor Markham asking for the ar- rest of Louis Robb, charged with an at- tempt to commit murder in that state, has been received.
 In April of that year he was gen. fenced to the California penitentiary from San Francisco for smbezzlement.
 The papers accom- panying the request, asking for his extradition, stated that he and William Vance in January 1892, attempted to kill Fred A. Hobbs. mayor of Benton Harbor. Believing it in the interest of justice that he should be made to suffer for the greater crime, Governor Markham has commuted his sentence so that his term of mprison- ment will expire tomorrow.

Remarkable Career of a
 Man Named Stitt.
Pays S15 a Week for His Jail
 Entertainment.
But He Prefers That to Liberty at the Expense of Paying
 Nearly $2O,OOO.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 NEW YORK, Sept. M.-William Stitt, a man about 50 years old, has been 8 prisoner in Ludlow street iail since just four years ago today. He is ap- parently willing prisoner and there is strong ground for the belief that he could get out if he wanted to. He is locked up until he pays $20,004 GA, which he owes to an estate of which he was trustee, and it IS said that It is not because he cannot pay that he does but because he will not. He passes 8 sybaritic existence in Ludlow street jail at s15 a week, which he regularly blanks down to the warden, and upon this weekly sum, which is just about fashionable rates for the room and board of single man, he has good time, as he views it. He has never been an inch out of the jail door in four years, but he has free range of the jail, a comparatively comfortable room and dimes on the fat of the land with the warden.
 Ex-Judge Dittenhoefer is attorney for those who locked up Stitt. His son, J. NJ. Dittenhoefer, told a re. porter the legal aspect of the case today. In March, 1883, ex-Judge Dittenhoefer was asked through firm of Canadian lawyers by Wm. Watson, of Toronto. to proceed against Stitt to force him to make an accounting of the estate of Joseph Watson. of which Stitt was executor. March 29, of that year, an application was made in the surrogate's court to remove Stitt as executor. The adjudication of the estate brought to light the fact that Stitt held in trust $26,962 35 of the Watson estate. Of this $6,957.25 had been deposited with the United States Trust company and was recovered. Stitt was directed to pay the balance, $20,0O4.64. September IS, 1890, Stitt WAS found in Smith &l McNell's hotel on Washington street, and arrested. Stitt absolutely refused to make any &C., counting or statement, and vas locked up in Ludlow-street jail. From that moment to this day he has been a prisoner.

THE FIRST COURT MARTIAL.
Two Members. of Company B on
 Trial Last Night.

Two Members of Company B on
 Trial Last Night.
 The first court martial in ths history of the National Guard of Arizona was convened yesterday to try two members of company B, Geo. Harmson and Ed R. Coffey, privates. The court was ordered by Col. John H. Martin on complaint lodged wi h him to try three mem bers of the company, one of whom, A. J. Monihon, is now without the jurisdiction of the court.
 The tribunal convened at 10 o'clock yesterday morning at the office of Mai. R. allyn Lewis of the Second battalion. It was constituted as follows: Mai. Lewis, president, and First Lieutenant hefin and Second Lieutenant Pierce, members. Capt. John J. Wickham, judge advocate. Defendant Cofey was arraigned and an adjournment WAS taken until ' o'clock in the evening.
 The court was as martial in appear ance as character. 4 cordon of soldiers guarded the entrance to the tribunal chamber. Within, the court sat about table in the center of the room in full dress. Mem bers of the militia not engaged in guard duty and visiting officers from company c with a half dozen civilians filled the chamber
 There was one charge agalnst Private Harmson em bracing foursspecifcations. of absence from drill. He pied guilty to three, but pied sickness in excuse for the fourth.
 There were two charges against Pri- vate Cofey, including two speci6ca- tons of violations of number s of the articles q war and q iGsub- ordination. He entered general and specific denial and was defended by Judge Frank Cox, who threw as great vim into his piea as if his client were on defense for murder.
 The taking of evidence was slow, as it WAS carefully transcribed, and the whole proceedings were conducted strictly according to the code. The court adjourned sine die at the conclu- sion of the arguments in Private Cof- fev's case. The papers are to be trans- mitted to Tucson to be examined by Col. Martin. The result, therefore, is not known.

 CHICAGO, Sept. 24.-Some weeks ago Chairman Tanner of the Republican state committee wrote ex-President Harrison, asking him to make one or more speeches in Illinois this fall. Sat- urdav he received the following reply, which not only answers his letter, but outlines Harrison's plans for the fall campaign:
 "To J. R. Tanner-My dear sir: l have not been able to sooner acknowl- edge your letter of Aug. p. I only got home yesterday. I have made up my mind not to go out of this state to enter into a campaign this fall. 1 do not think it would be right for me to go into general campaign work.
 1T have promised our own people to make couple of short speeches in this state, and if go beyond this and visit Illinois or Iowa, as have been invited to do, or any other state, could not put any limit on the demands which would be made upon me. am sorry to disappolnt you for you have all shown me great deal of kindness in the past.

Of the active issues showing advances,
while others scored losses. The irregu-
larity was the result of heavy selling
for London account, and the total sales
for this account was fully $1,000 shares,
the offerings being well taken, and be-
fore II o'clock the whole list was on the
advance once more. The rise induced
profit taking and the early gains were
generally lost. Late in the day the ac-

side of Inc account, discovered heavy
liquidations by an operator responsible
for the big rise in sugar and immediate
ly the bears began to increase in their
