Officer Denny Welsh Saw Dur

Often Together.

Officer Denny Welsh of Alameda will be
an important witness for the prosecution.
He called at police headquarters yesterday
and made statement showing that Dur

girl, Minnie Williams, in Alameda.

SUED A POLICE CAPTAIN.
An Attorney Claims Damages for
Having Been Elected From the
Durrant Trial.

Henry Newman, a lawyer, under
took to enter Judge Conlan's courtroom on
Tuesday afternoon to listen to the evidence
in the Durrant murder case. Just at the
time there was some little scuffling among
the crowd at the door in its anxiety to get
in also for the same purpose. The lawyer was
making very good progress when Captain
Douglass, who sits beside Durrant, is alleged
to have sprung forward, caught Newman
and forcibly elected him. Newman ex-
planned that he was lawyer, and so en-
titled to privileges there, but Douglass is
alleged to have replied that he did not care
what he was, the decorum of the court
room had to be preserved.
These allegations appeared in a suit to
be begun in the Justices court to-day by
Newman against Douglass for damages in
the sum OF $500 for assault. and battery
Newman claims to have suffered from the
indignity imposed upon him, and also to
have had his coat torn.

GIBSON ON THE RACK.
A Tilt Between the Reverend
Gentleman and Judge
COnlan.

There was little change in the ensemble
of the picture drawn by the scene presented
in Judge Conlan's courtroom during the
Durrant trial at the resumption of pro-
ceedings yesterday morning.
The principal witness of the day was DR..
Gibson. pastor of the Emmanuel Baptist
Church. His notebook, a tiny perfumed
affair in gilt and morocco, has gone to join
} that collection of ugly things known in the
language OF the law as" Exhibits A, B, {"
and so on.
The reverend gentleman objected mildly.
Barnes got on his feet with strenuous
protest, but al this was of no avail Dick
inson wanted it. He said he needed it in his
business, and so Judge Conlan ruled that
the little book should be turned over to the
clerk of the court, who was instructed to
put it in a sealed envelope and guard IL
jealousy from the rude gaze OF the curious.
1t all came about in this manner: When
DR. Gibson first went on the stand ne
pulled the dainty little book Of addresses
from some mysterious receptacle OF his
vest or coat and sat with it in his hands as
he gazed expectantly at the examining
counsel.
The eagle eye of Eugene Deuprey caught
sight OF the book and he called General
asked to see it, and then followed a lengthy
catechizing as TO its objects, purposes and
relevancy on this particular occasion. All
that followed will be seen in the report of
the evidence, as will also the treatment re-
ceived by the ministerial witness at the
hands Of the court.
II DR.. Gibson was flippant and possibly
impertinent, at the previous examinations
to which he was subjected, he showed no
such tendency or disposition Yesterday
morning when the court broke in on the
cross-examination of the defendants coun-
sci to ask few pointed and concisely put
questions. The reverend gentleman posi-
lively collapsed. He weakened: he with
cred, and in his replies to the sarcastic in
terrogatory of the court seemed to shrink
to half his natural stature.
From the answers the clerical witness
made Judge Conlan was unable to under
stand now pastor of church could allow

SHAMoKIN, Pa, June 2S.-Anthony
Paoli and John Tursick fought a duel
in the woods last night, using clubs
for weapons. Paoll is dying from the
effect of his wounds, and Tursick,
though badly hurt, managed to crawl

cipals were powerfully built young
men, and been suitors for Rosina

dared Paoi to settle the dispute with
clubs, and they retired to the forest.
They selected oak sticks, and then
stripped to the waist. 1t was decided
to fight to the death. Friends of Paoli,
hour later, says he told the story of
the contest before lapsing into insen-
sibility.
The men SPARED for brief time be-

landed one on Paoli's right shoulder,
fracturing it. He dropped his club, but,
lodging a blow for his head, regained
possession of it, and continued with
his left hand. He struck Tursick in
the stomach, weakening him so that
for five minutes neither could deal
hard blows. They agreed to rest for
few minutes, after which the duel
was continued by Tursick's striking
his opponent on the head knocking
him down. Tursick bent over him to
deal the fatal blow, when Paoli struck
him in the stomach. Paoli raised him
self to his knees and warded off a
number of blows until he was ex-
hausted. Then Tursick struck him
on the head, knocking him insensible.

California Diamonds.

WASHINGTON, June 2s.-Dr David
T. Day, chief of mining statistic di-
vision of the geological survey, has
completed his annual report, from
which the following, relating to the
Pacific coast, is taken:
"W. P. Carpenter. of ;acerville,
Cal, who has from tin, u lime re-
ported the finding of diamonds in auri-
ferrous gravel, under the usual con-
dition of their occurrence on the
Pacific coast, has lately obtained two
crystals, one weighing over seven
grains troy, and the other six. OF
rounded form and rough surface, each
nearly one-fourth of an inch in diam
eter, but family tinted. the larger
with greenish shade and the smaller
with pale yellow. AS many 40 or so
small diamonds have been taken from
the gravel at this place at times in the
past, but, since the stamp mills have
been employed, little is found but
crushed fragments encountered in
'panning up.'"

The sandbagged Cuban sympathizer.

GAINESVILLE, Fla, June 29.-The
man sandbagged here Tuesday night,
and who has become notorious as the
medium through which Cuban letters
from Major Ham has been given cir
culation through the press, is not F.
P. Anderfer, but F. P. Ham. The
man said he possessed Greek cipher,
by means of which he communicated
with Ham, and then translated the
news. The Jacksonville Citizen cor
respondent secured the cipher and
asked the Rev. Mr.. Hundley TO trans
late it. He did so, and it was proved
to be a Greek copy of a letter written
in England from friend in Philadel-
phia and addressed to Ham. Anderfer,
or Ham, is still confined in his room,
and says he will prove all he claims
when he gets up. 1t is known that he
has received letters from Cuba which

GUITEAU's EXECUTIoNER.
He Died Yesterday of Infirmlties Incl
dent to old age.

uent TO Ola age.
WASHINGTON, July 1.-Russel
Strong, familiarly known as "Colone
Bob Strong," who executed Guiteau
the assassin of President Garfield, diet
in this city yesterday of the infirmitiei
incident to old age, being close upor
his S0th year.
He had been an officer of the district
Jail nearly 80 years, during that period
having executed 18 criminals, the las,
one year ago, when his nerve seemed
as steady as If not strained by the wear
and tear of 79 years of life.
He was born in Albany. N. Y, and
in early life was q sailor, and the
knowledge he thus acquired of ropes
and knots led to his selection as the
district hangman. Before settling in
Washington, he went out to California
with the "49ers," and assisted in build
ing the old San Francisco mint. He
afterward took haLd in building the
house wing of the capitol.
Notwithstanding the grim nature of
his professional duties, he was jovial
and a kind-hearted man in private life,
and sacrificed most of his own means
to aid brother in the protracted liti-
cation of claim of many thousands of
dollars against the city government
for unpaid services as contractor. That
claim was finally decided in his
brothers favor, but two years after he
had died, worn out, like Jarndyce
heir, by the long struggle.
Strong's death is great loss to the
Jail officials, and it will be no easy
matter to fill his place. Three execu-
tions are scheduled to take place in
July, and it will be necessary to select
one of the jail employees to perform
the duties formerly looked after by

Rebel Leader Reported Caught.

MADRID, June 29.-According to re-
ports received today, Genaral Antonio
Maceo, the Cuban insurgent leader,
has been captured by Spanish troops,
and consigned to prison pending orders
from Captain-General Campos.
WASHINGTON, June 29.-Minister
Dupuy de Leone, of Spain, has not re-
ceived official confirmation of Maceo's
capture. If confirmed, the minister
regards the capture as most important,
for Maceo is mulatto, who has been at
the head of the negroes, and his ap-
prehension will put down the uprising
of the blacks. Maceo started his ex-
pedition from Costa Rica last spring,
and has led large force of negroes
who have been operating of late around
Santiago de Cuba. He is a man of
much ability, and was in charge of the
government tobacco plantation in
Costa Rica. The latter country took
occasion, when Maceo started on his
expedition, to assure Spain that he
had no government support. Next to
Gomez and Marti he had been the
most conspicuous figure.

BERLIN, June 29.-Echoes of the
celebration at Kiel upon the occasion
of the opening of the Kaiser Wilhelm
canal are still reverberating on all
sides. The attitude assumed by the
officers of the French feet is now
generally severely criticized, and it is
significant that the semi-official
ANgenine Zeitung most unsparingly
comments on the subject, and charges
the French with carrying discord into
the general harmony and with pro-
nounced lack of international courtesy.
The same paper also belittles the i'm
portance of the Russo-France UNDER
standing, so ostentatiously displayed
at Kiel, adding:
'"The few Russian and French ves-
sles there cut a very insignificant

press are ridiculed here, as childish.

DENVER, June 2S.-A special to the
Times, from Albuquerque, N. NJ, says:
Pedro Perea, of Bernalillo. reports the
people of Algodones, small Mexican
settlement north of here, greatly ex-
cited over the mysterious disappear
ance of Pedro Lobalo and Maxine
Sandova, sheep herders, employed by
Francisco Archibeque. 1t is believed
the men have been murdered, as their
sheep were found in charge of a we'll

Garcia have been made.

They Fear Lynch Law.

DENVER, June 2s.-Almost the en-
tire police force was employed last
night in guarding the houses of eight
aldermen, who feared violence from
their constituents. An ordinance
granting reduction of 10 per cent. on
the schedule of water rates now in
force passed the aldermen by vote of
to 6, and this aroused the anger of
the people, who attended the council
meeting in force. The measure has
clause which makes the rates fixed
burden on the people for Is years.
Besides. it is claimed, the reduction is
not half what the public is entitled to
under the company's contract, which
calls for reduction th;a Fa1r to the
average rates charged in Chicago, st.
Louis and Cincinnati. Although much
harsh talk is heard, no overt acts
against the aldermen have yet been
committed.

CREMATED IN A HOUSE.
Trotter Holiday and His Niece Burned
to Death.

GRIDLEY, CAL, July 1.-The resi-
dence of Trotter Holiday, situated five
miles south of Gridley, was totally
destroyed by fire last night. About
11:30 o'clock, Joe Quinn, brother-in-
law of Holiday, was awakened by
smelling smoke. He arose and rdshed
to the door of the Holidays sleeping
apartment. He rushed outside and
endeavored to raise window so as to
rescue Holiday, but was unable to do
so.f While endeavoring to do this, he
heard Miss May Terrill, niece of Mr..
Holiday, who was stopping at the
house, scream twice. Both Holiday
and Miss Perrell were cremated in the
burning building. 1t seems that Miss
Terrell, was overcome by the heat,
and perished, as her body was found
in room other than that in which
she slept. Nothing but the trunks of
the bodies remain, the arms and limbs
having been burned away. Mr.. Holli-
day was a well-known and highly re-
spected citizen, and a well-to-do farmer.
The coroner's jury, on being impan-
eled, rendered verdict in accord
ance with the above facts,
