CHAPTER III.

"Not seen him? Why my dear sir,
there's no question Of 1t. It's certain
absolutely. The evidence Is POSITIVE.

being found treated so Is pretty wen
enoueh. I should think. But tnats
nothing-look at those footmarKs'
They've walked along with him, one

plainly they were the last people with

to ask anybody to believe that the dead

his own hand first. Even IL you do'
where's the hand? And even putting
aside all these considerations, such
complete case in itself, the FOSTERS
must at least have seen the body as
thew came past, and yet nothing has
been heard of them yet. Why didn't
they spread the alarm? They went
straight away in the opposite direc-
ton from home-there are their foot
marks which you've not seen yet, be-
yond the gravel"
Hewitt stepped over to where the
patch of clean gravel ceased. at the OPP
posite side to that from which we had
approached the brook, and there, sure
enough, were the now familiar foot
marks of the brothers leading away
from the scene of Sneathys end.
"Yes," Hewitt said; II see them. OF
course, Mr.. Hardwick, you'll do what
seems right in your own eyes, and in
any case not much harm will be done
by the arrest beyond a terrible fright
for that unfortunate family. Never
theless, If you care for my impression
1t is, as / have said. that the Fosters

IT wired to Shopperton at once, as
soon as I heard Of the matter. It's a
12-mile drive. but I wonder the police
have not arrived yet. They can't be
long; don't know where the village

he wouldn't be much good. But as. to

With Much PoliteneSS
and Diplomacy
That We Have No Interest in
the Venezuela Boundary.
1t Is a Matter, Says Great Britain,
Which Concerns Only the
Parties Interested.
By the Associated Prase.

By the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, April 3.-There is reason
to believe that the British government
has given our EN- mbassador, Mr.. Bayard,
to understand in response TO his repre-
sentation in the Venezuela boundary
matter on his suggestion that it be SUBJ
mitted to arbitration, that it must con-
tinue to regard the subject as one in
which Great Britain and Venezuela
alone are concerned.
OF course the idea was set out very
automatically and courteously so as to
avoid giving offense as far as possible
while still making it plain that the
United States could not be regarded as
having any proper interest in the mat
ter. So as it stands the British govern
ment still insists upon its absolute title
and right to occupy all the territory to
the eastward of the Schoomberg line,
while protesting willingness to submit
to arbitration it's claim to the lands
lying west of that line.
This was the offer made to Venezuela
years ago and it has not been modified
in any respect since Notwithstanding
Mr.. Bayard's effort.

this was true except as to the date of
the destruction OF the books which took
place, if at all, soon after August 81.
The change of books, he said, had been
suggested by P. P. Daggs after the
failure of the bank OF Tempe Mr..
Daggs, he said, was fearful creditors of
the bank might suspect his connection
with the commission house and might
resort to attachment proceedings which
would embarrass the business. A re.
vised and expurgated addition of the
old books was issued and the original
works were destroyed.

fendant, but with some hesitation, II

Mr.. Goodman's wife, by the way,
commands the highest respect of the
prosecution, who ungallantly charge
her with coaching the defendant.
The burden of the defendants evil
dence was that P. P. Daggs was part.
ner in the commission business, that
the Daggs brothers. interests were in

FIGHT WITH ROBBERS,

BY the Associated Press.
SALINAS, Cal, April 3.-Sheriff Mat
thews received word today that the two
men who robbed the station at Arroyo
Grande were on a north bound freight
train. The sheriff and his deputies
were on hand when the train arrived
and when the officers approached the
robbers appeared at the door of the car
and opened fire. The officers, none of
whom were hit, returned the fire and
shot one of the desperadoes through
the stomach and in the knee.
Although desperately wounded the
man kept on shooting until he fell back
unconcious. The other robber threw
up his hands and surrendered when
the shooting commenced and was not
wounded. Most OF the booty secured
by the robbers was recovered.

man who is suspected of being the miss.

Campbell that they had seen a man,
much resem bling the description of the
Reed station robber, pass through that
town. He wore ordinary clothing and
there were no traces of a bicycle suit
about his attire.
The officers left for the scene as soon
as possible and got traces of the suspect
which they followed. He was found to
be making his way as fast as possible
toward Santa Cruz. Sheriff Lyndon re.
turned this evening but Deputy Gard
ener continued on his way to Santa
Cruz. He will attempt to overhaul the
man ahd settle the question as tc
whether or not he is the robber who is

NOTHING FOR MRS. BUTLER.
The Decision in the Fry Will
Case.
Held by the Court That Improper
Influence Was Exercised by
the ConteStee.

In the Marcus A. Fry will case de.
cision was rendered in district court in
favor of the parents of young Fry and
against Mrs. Ida May Butler, benef-
ciary under the will to the extent of
$4,000. Judgment for costs was also
given the contestants.
The genuineness of the will was con-
ceded by the court. That is, that it
had been signed by Fry, but it was de-
cided that undue influence had been
exerted by Mrs. Butler. This decision,
in effect, sustains the finding of the
probate court.
Fry's death occurred in this city
something more than year ago and
within month after his arrival from
Ell Paso. He was preceded by about
two weeks by Mrs. Butler, who had
found work in dressmaking establish.
ment.
She was then known as May Alden.
After Fry's arrival both took lodgings
at the Vendome and Fry gave out to
acquaintances that she was his cousin.
When the young man sank into his last
illness her attention to him was unre-
mitting and whatever of genuine affec-
ton passed between the pair came from
her. A short time before his death Fry
told his partner in the insurance busi-
ness of his real relation toward May
Alden whose name was Mrs. Ida May
Butler, the wife OF barber at Albu-
querque. Mrs. Butler admitted all
this and said thst she had assumed the
name of May Alden that she might
hide from her husband long enough to
obtain a statutory residence in Arizona
when she meant to obtain divorce aud
marry Fry. She had tacitly admitted
Fry's cousin" story, to avoid scandal.
Fry seeing that he must die said he
wished to do something for the woman
who had done so much for him. He
made will in which he left her $4,000
in insurance policies. The will was
witnessed by Mr.. Wood and DIR. Mac
Lehman and Fry soon after died. 1t
transpired that Fry's life was insured
in several companies for about $4,000,
all of which but $500 had been assigned
to his parents. These policies along
with some iewelry belonging to Mrs.
Butler were in safety deposit vault at
Ell Paso.
A few days after the young mans
death his father, Geo. B. Frv, came in
from Franklin, Pa, to contest the will
and in the proceedings which followed
the will was denied admission to pro-
bate. In the course of the trial all re-
gard for the memory OF the dead young
man was thrown to the winds, and by
the contestants it was shown that his
life, both before and during his &C.
quaintance with Mrs. Butler, was not
one to which his surviving relatives
could point with PRIDE"
1t was not shown though that during
her residence in Phoenix she had i'm
pressed those who knew her as de-
signing woman. and it was pretty well
esta ablished that she did not know the
character of Fry's will until after his
death.
She is now keeping boarding house
at Cripple Greek, Colo. 1t is not prob
able that the case will be carried any
further. The chances of securing a
different verdict are remote and if it
were secured the probability of realiz-
ing anything from it would be even
| more remote.

GOLDFIELD LETTER.
A Succinct Description of the Bull
Dog Mine.

A Succinct Description of the Bull
Dog Mine.
GoLDFIELD, Ariz., April 2, 1895.
Messrs. Payton and Deans are about
to start on prospecting tour through
the country north of the salt river.
The owners OF the May flower have
been engaged developing their property
lately.
The Floater mine will shortly start
up. The patent for the property, it is
expected, will issue in about ten days,
when the Goodwin brothers will begin
operations.
Mr.. E. o. Kennedy. lately with the
Bull Dog com Dany, is now interested in
the development of a property in va
yapai county.
The Bull Dog has not as yet started
up, but sufficient interest was excited
to induce me to take a run over the
ground. The main shaft lies at the
lower end OF the claim rather about
400 feet from the south end line and lies
on the east side of dyke and ledge
twenty.tw two feet wide. The ledge has
also an open cut from which can be
seen the character of ore on the west
side of the dyke. A mill run on ore
| from this ledge of over a hundred tons
gave an average yield per ton OF $34.90.
The dyke averages $40 across on the
surface, have been told.
From the shaft south the Bull Dog
ground is highly mineralized. Numer-
our stringers run through the ground
and extend into the adjoining claim.
| The main ledge, twenty-five feet wide,
enters the Cousin ground near the
north end center monument and ira
verses the claim, or rather centers in a
porphvry hill at the lower end OF the
claim. This has been proven by num-
erous prospect pits along the line of the
ledge, also by a shaft which shows
| twenty-five inch streak near the Bull
Dog line; there is also west ledge
coming from the Bull Dog ground. A
shaft on this ledge has shown free gold
quite close to the surface. The country
rock is Bull granite on the north and
porphyry and prophyritic conglomerste
for the west part OF the lower half OF the
claim. The starting up of the Bull
Dog will give considerable additional
value to all her neighbors, but princi-
pally to the Cousin claim, which has
much in common with it.
