ACQUITTED At BAKERSFIELD.
Indictment Against Ex-Supervisor Roberts
Dismissed Because of Failure to
Show q Contract.

BAKERSFIELD, CAL, Dec. 11.--All the
remain ing cases against the present and
former county officials indicted by the re-
cent Grand Jury were set for hearing to-
day. When court opened the room was
crowded. and Judge ConkIin took the
people by surprise when he announced
that because of the circumstances sur
rounding the indictments he had asked
Judge Williams OF Ventura to preside.
The case of ex-Supervisor E. M. Roberts
was called first. He was charged with
fraudulently collecting over $1,000 from the
county for work done on the roads under
the bond issue of two years ago. Each
side was very careful in selecting a jury,
and exhausted the challenges before twelve
men were chosen.
The trial was begun by the prosecution
attempting to show a contract between
the Supervisors and Roberts, but the de-
tense objected, on the ground that the in
dictment as lied did not show that the
claim at the time OF presentation to the
Board of Supervisors was properly certified
to and legally payable by the Board of Su-
pervisors. This objection was sustained
by the court, whereupon the prosecution
announced it had no case, and the court
instru cted the jury TO render verdict OF
&C quittal, which was done.

E0T A GENERAL UPRISING.
Washington authorities Not Alarmed By
! tie Apache Atrocities in
Hrjzorn

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 1.-THE
character of the information received at
the War Department concerning the
reported Apache outbreak in Arizona
shows it 10 be trifiing and not likely to
lead to any general uprising.
One telegram received at the departm ent
to-day from the commanding officer at
Fort Apache said that Lieutenant Fenton
OF the Seventh Cavalry had found dead
Indian on the Cibio. Lieutenant Fenton
also secured a pack mule and outfit be-
longing to the murderer.
According TO reports the scare arose
through reports that the Indians were
footing ranches.
The Indian Bureau has received no ad-
vices since Saturday morning concerning
the killing of settlers by Apaches in the
southwest. Some intelligence is expected
as soon as Indian Agent Merrett of the
San Carlos Reservation reaches his post of
duty. The agent was in this city at the
time the trouble began, but left immedi-
ately to assume charge of affairs.
DENVER, Colo, Dec. ia brief dis
patch was received at military headquar-
tiers this morning from Fort Apache. Ar1z.,
stating that the Sheriff was on his way to
Globe with Bots, the white deputy who
killed one of the Indians caught in the act
OF lootlng a ranchhouse during the absence
of its tenants The commandant at Fort
Apache added that trouble was antic1-
pated, but of what nature he did not state.

SANTA BARBARA CANARD.
Rumors of a Shipment of Arms
for San Salvador Denied
Positively.
Mysterious Boxes Reported to Have
Been Put Aboard the Barclay
Golden.

SANTA BARBARA, CAL, Dec ia
sensational story has been sent abroad
from this port announcing that the tug
Barclay Golden stopped at Mores Landing,
nine miles west of here, night before last,
and shipped twenty cases feet in length,
6 in breadth and feet deep, and
eighty boxes twenty inches square, sup
posed to contain arms and ammunition
for San Salvador conspirators, headed by
General Ezeta. 1t has long been rumored
that Central American consplrators had
for a year past been making their rendez-
vous in Santa Barbara.
A prominent coffee planter and native
of Guatemala has had his residence here
for the past two years, departing some
eight weeks since. This and the fact that
he frequently entertained strange gentle
men of his own nationality lent color to
these rumors and gave some credence to
the new story exploited by the local press.
A thorough and searching investigation
of the locality where this illegal shipment
of arms is alleged to have occurred results
in the complete discrediting of the story.
No vessel, tug, steamer or sailing craft has
stopped at Mores Landing or laid off the
wharf out in the channel for the past week
No one in the neighborhood has OBJ
served any suspicious craft or seen any
mysterious movements in the vicinity
No arms or boxes of any kind have passed
to the wharf. Tie story is in short pure
romance.
The wharf known as Mores Landing is
attached to large ranch belonging to
John More, brother of the late Alexander
More, the millionaire, near Goleta. To
get to the wharf it is necessary to drive
for couple of miles through the ranch,
passing close to the ranch house and open
ing numerous gates.
1t would be impossible to do this with
out the knowledge of the superintendent
and men, and they Indignantly deny the
entire story

1t Appropriates 100000 for the
Construction of Necessary
Buildings.
UPPER HOUSE PROCEEDINGS
Allen of Nebraska SCOTS at American
Women Who Marry Titled
Mendicants."

W WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. u.-Among
the Senate bills introduced to-day was one
by Perkins of California, approprlating
100000 for the construction of the neces-
sary buildings for a training station for
naval apprentices on Yerba Buena, or Goat
Island, in the harbor OF San Francisco.
The Senate was in session to-day for only
an hour and a quarter. Three PROPOSE
tons were introduced in honor of dlstln-
guished men of the past. The first was for
the purchase OF a $1,000 statue of the
French novelist, Victor Hugo, to be placed
in the new library building in Washing
ton, now almost finished. The second was
for $50, 900 monument to the naval hero,
John Paul Jones, to be erected in Wash
ington. The third was to authorize the
placing of statue of President Franklin
Pierce upon the grounds of the public
building at Concord, n. H.
Dubois (R. )of Idaho made ali argument in
support of his proposed amendment to the
rules so as to distribute the general appro-
prlation bills among the committees hav-
ing charge of the various subjects to which
they apply. No action was taken, as
Hill Cd of New York slgnifed a desire to
speak upon it, as we'll as upon his own
proposed amendments to the rules in re-
gard to cloture and the counting of quo
runs.
Allen (Pop.) of Nebraska spoke briefly
upon his resolution for the recognition of
Cuban beIligerency, which also went over
without action. He declared that the
Populist party was as thoroughly COM
mitted to the Monroe doctrine as either
the Democratic party or the Republican
party, and he scoffed at American citizens
who were SO ready TO become English
lords or lords of some other country" and
the American women who were willing
TO waste themselves on titled nendicants
from the East"
Call CD of Florida introduced a bill
providing for the payment of pensions to
employees of the railway mail service after
twenty years service.

Farmer Geiger's House Filled With the
Proceeds of Midnight Raids.
NAPA, CAL, Dec. 1.-THE people of
this vicinity have been annoyed during
the past year by the operations of petty
thief. Local officers sought in vain for the
light-fngered gentleman until yesterday,
when Constable George Allen received in
formation which led to the prowlers ap-
prehension.
Several months ago blacksmith shop
in Napa was looted and chest of tools
stolen. The officers learned that farmer
named Ernest Ge1ger, residing near Mount
Veeder, had some of the stolen tools. Con-
stables Allen and Secord drove out to
Geiger's place today and arrested him for
grand larceny. In house which Geiger
is building on his place they found not
only a chest of tools, but also two bicycles,
one Of which was stolen from George
WIldberger of this city. a wheelbarrow,
stolen from James & Son, and great guam
titles of hardware, tools, clothing, crockery
and other articles gathered from various
places.

wages, but that it did not pay, and he
sought a quicker way to fortune.

MAJOR ORR,s DEFICIT.
Hts Bondsnen VIII Offer to Make Goo
Only a Portion of 1t.

Hts Bondsnen VIII Offer to Make Good
Only Portion of 1t.
STOCKTON, CAL, Dec. lit is said
the bondsmen of Major Orr. late treasurer
of the State Insane Asylum, will submit a
communication to the directors at the
meeting next Monday, in which they Will
offer to make good the shortage in Major
Orrs accounts, barring the patients fund.
Only about $500 of the deficit occurred in
the handling of moneys appropriated by
the State, the main portion of the shortage
placed on deposit by patients and given
into Orr's safe keeping by the board.
As the State charges SIS month for the
board of patient and collects the money
from the patients when they have any
cash, the directors regarded the patients
fund as State money, but the bondsmen
of the treasurer think otherwise. Be-
sides. they do not regard themselves as
morally responsible. considering the fact
that successive boards of directors have
been grossly negligent in the matter of the
patients fund, which should have been
looked into long ago.
