The Desperate Welt Known by United
States Marshal Gard.
Fredericks, the man who shot Bank
Cashier Herrick, is we'll known by
United States Marshal Gard of this city.
He is the man who was released from
the Folsom state prison last May, and
became q confederate of Evans and
Sontsg. He was sent to tn 9 prison from
Mariposs county for stage robbery.
Upon his release he went to Visalia

letter of introduction from George Som
tag, who was serving sentence at
Folsom. Shortly afterward he and
Morel broke into store and stole the
arms with which George Sontag and
other convicts made their attempt to
escape.
He shot and killed Sheriff Pascoe OF
Nevada county while resisting arrest.
and afterwards shot Brakeman Benjamin
Bruce of Auburn while being put off a
train. He escaped in each instance and
left the country.
Marshal Gard, who was hunting Fred
ericks for his connection with Evans
and Sontag, was delegated by the former
to find him and return him to the state.
He had become acquainted with Eva
Evans, and made confidante of her.
Through letters he had written to her
Marshal Gard located Fredericks in a
small town in Nevada. The marshal
sent Deputy Harry Johnson in search OF
the desperado, who, it was found, had
gone to Butte, Mont. All trace of him
was lost there, hut Marshal Gard never
gave up the search. When he learned
yesterday that Fredericks had COM
mitted another murder he. was greatly
surprised.
In the letter written by Fredericks to
Eva Evans he told how he stole the fire.
arms and secreted them in the quarry at
Folsom, and gave history of himself
and bis crimeH.

Representative Wilson OF Washington
said: 'After battling for years for an
adequate restrictive law, the present
pro-Ohinese and pro-British administra-
tion has overridden the law and has not
only gone into the business of aiding the
Chinese to invade my state, but has also
made contracts with British coal firms

competition with our people,"
Representative Ellis REP of Oregon
said: "The reported abandonment Of
Photographic Identification will take
away one of the vital means OF restric-
tion. Until the full treaty is at hand it
will be difficult to form an opinion OF it,

IS NOT A CRIMINAL.
Queer Story Told by an Alleged
EmbeZZler.
Says a Wicked Man Took His Name
and SO Caused His Ar
rest.

QUEBEC, Aug. 20.-Quite a sensational
story is told here in connection with the
arrest last February of Hugh Annandale
upon charge of embezzIement from the
Bank of Newcastle, England. 1t will be
rem embered that Annandale. whose ex-
tradition has been granted by the Ameri-
can authorities, was tried in England and
acquitted, his innocence being clearly
proved. The following is a summary of
the story told by the man himself:
a man named Arnold ran away from
the place with a large sum of money be-
longing to the bank and crossed over to
America He landed at New York, and
while being driven 10 Baltimore in
wagon was the victim of a serious acci-
dent and was taken to hospital. He
made the acquaintance of another patient
suffering with grave disease of the lungs.
The patient was Mr.. Annandale. Sc
rious fears were entertained for Mr.. An
nandaIe. and knowing that the latter
would never leave ths hospital. after his
recovery Arnold disappeared and travelled
under the name of Annandale, and thus
succeeded in foiling the police. One night
he was killed In railroad accident at
Baltimore, and the Coroner, not knowing
that deceased was criminal. Informed his
family in England and held the usual in
quest.
Later on the police. put on false track,
arrested Annandale, who had recovered
and left the hospital, and the latter was
delivered 10 the British authorities and
tried, with the result heretofore men
toned. Annandale will claim damages
from the American Government and will

The House Wants Special luforma-
tion Concerning the Strike.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2o-Members Of
the House Committee on Commerce have
not abandoned the project of holding an
investigation of the recent railroad strikes
for which a resolution is before the COM
mittee. The appointment of commission
by Mr.. Cleveland to conduct a similar in
vestigation was thought to have forestalled
action by the committee. and for a time
the idea of a Congressional investigation
was dropped. 1t is thought that the in
quiry by the commission now in progress
is intended principally to secure informa-
tion upon the questions of capital and
labor involved and their solution.
Supporters of the resolution before the
committee desire a report regarding the
effect of the railroad strike upon COM
merce. Two or three members favor laws
which will control employees, SO that a
general strike paralYizing commerce could
not be inaugurated without due notice.
They regard the railroads. in measure,

SENATORS LEAVING WASHINGTON
Nobody Expects That There viii
Be Any Further Legislation
at This Session.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-Cbairman Will
son of the Ways and Means Committee
returned to the city to-day from Long
Branch. His early return was connected
with rumors that President Cleveland
would come to Washington at once and
that some action on the tariff bill was to
be expected. Mr.. Wilson denies these
statements, but says he looks for the
Presidents return on Thursday. Finding
so many Senators away from the city, he
does not expect any further legislation
this session.
The Republicans say that there will be
no more business of Importance transacted
at this session of Congress. except. per-
haps, the passage OF the bill correcting the
alcohol schedule. To-day Senator Lind
say was ready to make a speech defending
the action of the Senate Fin anee Com
mittee and the Democratic Senators who
supported them. 1t is also understood
Senator Allison was ready to make a
speech of some length on the present
status of tariff legislation. 1t is possible
that both of these speeches will be made
by the courtesy of the Senate. although
the Republicans said to-day that no
speeches would be made.
Some of the Democrats assert, however,
that II any attempt is made to prevent the
speeches on The Democratic side a quorum
will be recalled under duress by the
sergeant-atarms. On the Republican
side it is claimed the tariff debate, as we'll
as the tariff legislation. is at an end.
Speaker Crisp returned day from Old
Point Comfort. He says adjournment
could be had by Wednesday if the Presi-
dent should act on the tariff tomorrow.
The only legislative matter pending on
which action Is hoped for is the alcohol
bill now before the Senate, but this
appears to be affected by the Murphy
resolution postponing all tariff legislation.
The members of the Ways and Means
Committee say they DO not think the
President will let the tariff bill become a
law until the last moment in order that
the customs officers may have all the in
formation possible. This would not be
until midnight on Monday next

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2O.-State Depart
ment officials. as we'll as the Salvaduran
representatives in San Francisco. have
been st loss to understand why the war
rants for Ezeta's arrest issued TO DR.. Guz-
man, Salvadorean Minister in this .couu-
try, have not reached their destination
This is the explanation as made to The
CALL correspondent.
On Friday a week ago DR.. Guzman was
at the State Department and had a long
interview with Secretary Gresham. He
.recited to him the history of the whole
trouble caused by Ezeta in Salvador and
= his alleged criminal acts claiming that he
was refugee and had been given asylum
on board the United States ship Bennipg-
ton. He presented an urgent request from
his Government that warrant be made
:; cut for Ezeta's delivery to the Salvadoran
Tepresen tstives in San Francisco.
Guzman was so earnest, and represented
the matter to be so urgent that, after hasty
consultation with Secretary Herbert,
Gresham ordered tue papers to be pre-
paredsat once, and at the same time Secre-
tary Herbert sent orders to Captain Howl
son, commaudant at Mare Island, which
were to be delivered TO Commander Thomas
Of the Bennington before that vessel was
within the three-mile limit.
Minister GuZman was apparently very
anxious lest the papers should not arrive
at san francisco before the Bennington
reached her destination, so they were
banded to him at o'clock on Saturday
afternoon, August II, according to a state
ment of department official to THE CALL
correspondent. 1t appears. however, that
GuZQan did not mail the papers until
Thursday. so they Will probably not reach
San Francisco until Tomorrow.
A State Department official said to-day {:
''There is no use in those Salvadorans get
ting excited about the matter. We sup
posed that Minister Guzman intended to
mail the papers at once. but at any rate
they will reach San Francisco and doubt
less will be served as directed"
This official declined to state positively
whether the papers would be served at
sea or within the three-mile limit, but as
te1egraphed heretofore, Herbert, after con-
sultation with Gresham, directed that
Commander Thomas bring the Bennington
within the three-mile limit, where the
warrant will be served Immediately upon
its arrival.
State Department officials will not dis
cuss the report that DR.. Calderon has been
appointed by the Salvadorau Government
to take the place of the Consul of that
Government now there, but it is believed
TO be correct They do not. however, be-
lieve that the Consul has been in any way
neglectful of his duty or inclined to favor
Ezeta and his brother refugees, but rather
believe that f there has been any neglect
