$1,000 600 to England in the British war
ship EspeigIe has Chile been treated to
such a sensation.
Gray was heading for San Francisco and
would have been held here pending the
arrival of extradition papers had he ar
rived By the steamer Colon, which is due
here at any moment. But yesterday the
persons intrusted with his arrest received
word that the Puno put into Antofagasta
on the 9th of last month. Gray was
seized and is now in Jail waiting to answer
to several charges of wholesale perjury
and rob bbery. Andrews claimed, according
to his complaint, that he had been made
the victim of a clever swindle, and that his
partner managed the affair.
The exact nature of the purported en-
beZzlement has not yet been transmitted to
San Francisco in detail, it being simply
stated that the sum of $4,000 had been
appropriated by the American from the
funds Of the firm of Andrews & Gray and
that the mining venture of the latter had
turned out TO be only blind for leading
the gullible Andrews into deeper financial
EN- EMBARRASSMENT.
Andrews is described as an Englishman
who is said to have been enticed to South
America by the opportunities offered for
speculation in that country. He met Gray
at Valparaiso and went into business with
Eim under the firm name mentioned. They
dealt mostly in mining properties.
1t is not known whether the mining VEN
ture paid Andrews, but i; is said that the
mercantile pursuits of the firm of An
drews & Gray were extensive and remu-
nerative. The American was good busi-
ness man and invested the firms capital
well. He could not content himself with
comfortable returns, so began to use the
funds of the concern unknown to his part
ner.
Andrews confidence In his friend was
shaken on learning that he had been mis-
led in the matter of the South Chile mine,
and acting upon his suspicion he caused an
investigation of the books of the company
to be made. Gray then suddenly disap-
peared. and $4,000 was found to be unac
counted for.
Charles Gray was in San Francisco in
1887. He roomed for awhile at the Bald
win House, then moved to a house on
Market street. He was a good-loOking
fellow, and won the love of an Oakland
girl, wi hom he afterward agreed to wed,
but failed to keep bis promise. He left
the city, and was not again heard of until
he formed a partnership with Andrews
and became known as wealthy citizen of

Matilda Miller was one Of the we'll

to sell candy In front of Morosco's old
theater on Mission street, and sOmet times
sold fruit at the entrance to the park.
When the Worlds Fair opened In

She had saved about $4,000 Of her earnings
as street saleswoman, and thought she
could double il at the Windy City. About
two months ago Matilda returned and said
she had lost all of her capital by poor in

When about to be carried to the hospital

reading for the people. Postmaster
Backus has them in his custody. but he is
unwilling TO give them out. He considers
that as he is about 10 retire from office II
might be considered that he was trying to
take a slap at the administration. They
are not public documents. only seml-ot-
fetal in character. and he does not feel
justified in being the medium OF their ap-
pearance in cold type. Upon the request
of reporter tor THE CALL yesterday for

That ended it. Besides Postmaster

the office of POstmaSter-GeneEal Blssell.
They are preserved, however. and may
come to light some day.
Now, as TO the ability of San Francisco
clothiers TO compete with the makers OF

give the contract to an Eastern firm, when
we could make the uniforms right here IN

A. Il. Turner of Turner & Benedict,

local letter-caTriers just as cheaply and

HE ORDERED WELL
How a Portly Citizen Got
Good Service.
The Proprietor of Waterfront
Chophouse Was Convinced of
His Customers Identity.

The business depression had struck the
waterfront restaurant. Ruin was staring
il in the face. The proprietor, a gentle
man somewhat reduced in flesh. with an
air of injured manner. leaned sleepily
against the coffee-boler, around which
the flies buzzed in countless numbers.
There was not the fainte sign of Gus
toner; not even a small boy with large
appetite and an undisturbed squalor.
But there is never cloud without a sill
yer lining, and all comes to him who waits
unless it be he who expects the passage Of
a free-trade measure. The restaurant was
favored by visitor.
He came not as brawnY stevedore ar
rayed in the meek and lowly overalIs; he
came not as the able seaman, one part hu-
man being and two parts atmospheric dis
turbance in the shape of liquor-laden
breath; he came not as humble police
man, an untixed star of vice-dispelling
brilliance seeking to inspire gravity and
become possessed of a common center for
free meals, but he walked in putting like q
naphtha launch and perspiring like de-
fective boiler.
There were diamonds on his fingers and
a Jewel in his tie. His coat was of the
latest cut, his trousers had been creased
with great precision and his whiskers
parted in the middle with pair of scales.
He was, all in all, the most evenly ad-
justed citizen of any cline that had ever
bad the temerity to enter clty-front

His very presence created commotion.
The lank proprietor viewed him with open
mouth until that receptacle became so
filled with the winged insects that pes
tered the coffee-boiler that he, in the Ian
guage of the unblessed, ''cIosed his trap
and recovered his rapidly departing CON-

Charles Cooke wandered out to Golden

this mortal coil.
He fired shot at his heart, but as his
coat was buttoned and consisted Of thick

flesh. He waited q little, and as he did
not feel any deadly effects he opened his
mouth and fred another shot into 1t. He
quickly fired again, but his hand was un-
steady and the bullet whiZZsd past his ear
Then he fell to the ground in a faint.
The firing speedily attracted crowd and
the patrol wagon from the Central police
station was summoned. Cooke was taken
tn the Receiving Hospital, where Dr.
Berry found that the second bullet had

Coeke will suffer some little pain and in
convenience from this wound, but will
soon be all right again. The pistol was a

Cooke has property in Colusa. He ran

Then he came here and purchased a sa-
loon at Eighteenth aud Valencia streets.
The venture was not success and the
Sheriff finally took possession and sold the
business.
Since then Cooke has been lodging his
creditors and became, as he said last
