day was the big gest single jump
the market has had in months. Traders
were fairly crushed in their wild efforts
to execute buying orders. The price
fuctuated violently, and soon after open
ing began to slide down again, only in
creasing the excited feeling. 1t is gener-
ally conceded the advance was the re-
suit of bull enthusiasm, which had at
last broken loose in real earnest, we'll
backed up by outside support.
There was lot of short stuff covered
and good amount of switchiug done.
May opened 21s cents higher, at 65A
cents, sold up to 655s cents, and back to
65 cents. Corn and oats made quick
response to the rise in wheat, but sus-
tained the sharp noon reaction.

Huntington,s Arrest.

New YoRK, April 22.-Collis P. Hunt
ington, president of the Southern Pacific
railway, was arrested today on the
charge of giving free pass to one Frank
Stone, in violation of the interstate COM
merce law. President Huntington was
arraigned before United States Commits
sioner Shields. He was represented by
Frederick Coudert. Huntington ad-
mitted his identity. He was taken be-
fore Judge Brown, of the United States
district court, for warrant of removal
to California.
The indictment against Huntington
was found March 26, in San Francisco, a
certified copy of which was sent United
States District Attorney MaeFarlane,
who notified the railroad president to
appear before the United States COM
missioner and furnish bonds.
When Huntington was arraigned, Com
missioner Shields said the only question
he couldl inquire into was one of identity,
which Coudert, for Huntington, said
would be admitted. An order was then
made out holding him to await the issue
of warrant of removal. His counsel
then went before Judge Brown, in the
United States district court, and the
hearing was fixed for next Thursday at 3
O'Clock, Huntington meantime being al
lowed to go on his own recognizance.
Huntington said to reporter after
the proceedings before Commissioner
Shields: 'I have known Frank Stone
25 years. He is San Francisco lawyer.
I would not call him wicked man, be-
cause wicked man would not do things
that way. He is an innocent kind of a
fellow. supposed he started this

but give out so many passes don't re-

Not good outside and 1 presume his
pass was not so stamped and he took ad-
vantage of it. I don't know anything
about the matter beyond that, for I
don't pay any attention to such things.
In fact, don't care tupence one way
or the other. It don't amount to any

what action was taken in court this
morning. Some routine business, 1 sup
pose it was, but did not pay any atten-
ton. The arrests are among the high
. and low, and criminal procedure is not
confined to any class. 1 don't know
what will be done. guess Frank goi
his pass all right. but have not time tc
attend to all the details. I have toe
much else to do. think the root of the
whole matter lies in the fact that when ]

railroad discharged twenty-three mer
in San Francisco, who were, as far as
could see, mere political agents and GO
betweens for politicians. They did ne
work for the railway that 1 could dis

The pass is said to read as follows

Gold Mines JealousIy Guarded by the
Natives.

SAN LUIS PoTosI. Mexico, April 22.-
C. L. Debenroth, the mining man who
left here six months ago on p trip
through the territory of Tepec, in search
of the fabulously rich gold mines that
are said to be worked there by the In
dians, was killed in the mountains near
one of the Indian villages.
A number of expeditions to these gold
fields have been undertaken during the
past few years, and they have resulted
in the death of all members at the hands
of the Indians, who jealously guard the
treasure. The news OF the killing of De-
benroth was brought here yesterday by
Mexican who saw and recognized the
body. He vas well known in mining
circles of Colorado.

The Courtroom Crowded to
Suffocation.
SENSATIONAL
INCIDENT.
At Least Three Days and Perhaps More,
WIN be Taken Up by the Ex-
animation.

SAN Francisco, April 22.-District At
torney Barnes of the preliminary exami-
nation of Theodore Durant, for the MUIR
der of Minnie Williams, before Judge
Conlan this morning, stated that the
prosecution would put twenty-eight
witnesses on the stand, several of whom
had not testified at the inquest, and
that the examination would last at least
three days, probably more. The prose-
cution is keeping back a good deal of
cumulative evidence.
The defense, it is stated, will dispute
that the purse found in Durant's over
coat pocket belonging to the deceased
but the prosecution says the evidence on
this point is overwhelmingly in their
favor. A baker named Young, of Ala
media, will testify that the celluloid tab
let found in the purse was given by him
to Miss Williams on the day she met
her death.
For hours before the preliminary ex-
animation commenced in Judge Conlan's
court, crowd began to gather and a
squad of police were stationed at the en-
trance to the hall to preserve order.
Judge Conlan's court room was crowded
to suffocation, and policemen were
stationed in different parts of the room
on the lookout for numerous cranks who
have written threatening letters to the
Judge. Court opened at IL o'clock.
When the defendant arrived in court
all eyes were turned upon him. The
prisoner looked pale and concerned, but
showed no emotion. 5G ErU8
A photographer exhibited several
photographs of scenes in the church,
and two large pictures of Minnie Will
Jams showing her wounds and the work
of the physicians were exhibited and at
tracted great attention. They presented
a revolving sight.
Mrs. Morgan, with whom Miss Will
liRms lived in Alameda, was called to
the stand. She said that she last saw
Minnie Williams on the morning of
the 18th inst, and that the deceased had
told her she was going to Mrs. Voy's
house. She knew Durant. He had
called at her house last summer and had
stayed half an hour. She could not
identify the faces shown in the photos
either. He also failed to identity the
purse found in Durant's overcoat pocket.
Here the name of A. E. Williams, the
father of the dead girl, was called, but
in his place young woman rushed tc
the stand and said that no one should
testify before her. She gave the name
of Williamson and said that she would
be the one to judge Durrant and ordered
him released. The police tried to re.
move her but she would not let them
and left the stand voluntarily after some
words. She handed an incoherent letter
to the clerk. She said she was sent By
God to Judge Durant.

The Fort Worth Public Library As

Third street. The interest and enthu-
slasm It's noble minded members have
shown from the beginning has never
waned, and the active participation

attendance, and the energy displayed
proves that not many months VIII

A plan to allow each pupil In the
public schools to subscribe one dollar
toward the fund was submitted and
accepted. The subscription cards have
been prepared and a long advance up
the heights they have climbed has been
made. There are very few children
who cannot raise a dollar and the
fund thereby raised will largely in
crease the total receipts up to date.
