shot and instantly killed by j. Walsh,
who had been living in q. cabin on Rob-

After killing Robinson, Walsh fode TO
the Works ranch, one mile distant
where he met a young cowboy, named
Herbert Lynville. He shot Lynville down
in cold blood, and then rode for the
mountains twenty miles to the west.
lie was headed off by Sheriff Morrow
ana Deputy Hose, of Sheridan, who drove
him into the brush along Big Goose
creek. Here he was Kept corralled until
today, when Morrow secured reinforce
ments for his posse. This afternoon
Walsh made a break for liberty, running
through q cornheld to try and reach
wooded country. He was followed by
three of the sheriff's men, and when
overtaken showed light. They immedi-
ately shot him down killing him instantly.
Walsh was 60 years old. He had no
known cause for killing his victims. His
summary punishment by the sheriff S

CHOLERA'S HOLD.
MUCH STRONGER THAN ADMITTED
IN HONOLULU.
Natives Are Much Incensed and Do
Not Take Kindly to the Orders OF
the Board of HeSltI-Riots and
Incendiarism PROBABLE.

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 14-Privats
advices received from Honolulu and
published here today, state that cholera
has secured a stronger hold on the
Hawaiian capital than the authorities
there are willing to admit.
The natives are said to be much in
censed at the Honolulu health officials.
and do not willingly obey their orders.
The natives not only conceal new cases
from the authorities, but decline 10
use the treatment prescribed, and hide
the fatalities resultant from the cpl
demic. The natives will not trust
themselves in the hands of the board
of health if they can avoid it, believing
that such treatment means certain
death. Those who come intimately into
contact with the natives, say that
they are much excited over the spread
of the disease which they ascribed to
the unpopular board of health.
1t is predicted that unless the dis
ease abates or some change is made in
its management, the natives NAV re-
volt and resort to their favorite rene
dies fer disease-riOts and fncendiar-
ism. There are physicians in Honolulu
who enjoy the confidence of the ma
tives, but the doctors are not in favor
with the health board and can take
no prominent part in the suppression
of the epidemic. If put in control these
men might do more than the entire
board of health, for they can convince
the natives that the sanitary regula-
tions are for their good and not part
of a white mans plot to exterminata
all HaWdiianS.

proceedings at the state department
today. They marked the close of an
international question that has dragged
along for twenty-six years, giving rise
to fiery debates in the Spanish cortes
and protracted committee inquiry IN
both branches of our own Congress.
The Spanish minister came to the
state department and had an interview
with Acting Secretary Adee, lasting
only about ten minutes. The method
Of collecting the draft has not been de
termined yet, and Mr.. Adee will await
instructions from Secretary Olney.
Having settled the international fea-
ture of the case. the state department
is now likely to encounter some diff
Guilty at home in disbursing the money.
Much litigation is threatened, as was
evidenced by the taking out Of an in
junction by one of the assignees yes
terday. to restrain the state department
from paying over all the money to the
claimant, Mora. During the years Of
the tendency of this great claim, Mrs
Nora has been obliged to make assign
ments of part of it, the larger items
being on account of legal expenses.
Some of these assignments have been
recorded in the state department. but
their number and aggregate amount
is not learned at present.
Of these, the department must take
notice in settling the claim, and it is
probable others are outstanding. of
which the department has not yet been
informed. To insure a proper distribu-
ton, the department will give official
notice by the usual channels, SO the
proper claims can be presented, and
as this will necessarily consume some
time, there will be no haste in closing
up the matter. This morning a bailiff
from one of the district courts, waited
on Acting Secretary Adee and at
tempted to serve an injunction on be-
half of Mrs. A. ". Frazer, restraining
him from paying $500 of the claim
which she alleges to be her interests in
an assignment held by DR.. Dexter.
Mr.. Adee refused to accept service, be-
cause the injunction was directed
against Richard Olney, and the papers
were returned to court for an amend
ment to issue against the secretary of
state. Mr.. Willoughby. Washington
lawyer, was also at the department in
the interest of an assignment he holds
from Attorney Page, formerly Mora S
lawyer, and there is reason to believe
that these are the forerunners of
numerous claims under assignments,
some of which will doubtless be con-
tested by Mr.. Mora.

CROP CONDITIONS
REPORT OF THE AGRICULTURAL
DEPARTMENT.
On the Whole, it is Somewhat More
Favorable Than Was Looked

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE statisti-
cal report of the agricultural department
issued today gives a review Of the gen.
eral crop conditions not comprised in that
made public on the 10th inst. t. says that
in Minnesota there is a lower wheat yield
than was anticipated and considerable

apples, but the damage has not been
sufficient to alter the general average for
the country. The average condition of
apples is now 70 and of peaches S4.1.
Grapes range from half to a full crop

fcurths of the normal product being re-
ported from New York. Figures are gen.

CLOSING IN.
ANOTHER LINK IN THE CHAIN OF
TESTIMONY.
a Witness Who CorrOborates the
Testimony Given BY Oppenheim,
the Payynbroker, in the Durrant
Case.

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. IA few
weeks ago Captain of Detectives Lees
said that if a. witness could be found
who would supply the necessary proof
that any or all of Blanche Lamont's
rings were in the possession of Theo-
dore Durrant before they were returned
to Mrs. Noble in so mysterious a man
ner, the last and strongest link in the
chain of evidence against the young
medical student would have been
forged.
This witness has been found.
He is a business man, a man Of I'M
questionable integrity, and he comes
forward with his statement at this late
day because he believes it to be his
duty to make known the fact within
his knowledge before it is too late for
the evidence to have any effect en- the
trial now in progress. So far as his
knowledge goes, he is positive as to
his facts
This witness who has come to the
front so opportunity and will prove
sentation of the case for the people,
is W. j. Phillips. His testimony will
be corroborative of that of Adolph
Oppenheim, the pawnbroker. who tes-
tilted at the preliminary hearing that
Durrant entered his place of business a
few days after the murder of Blanche
Lamont, and tried to pawn one of her
rings. Phillips says he was near the
pawnshop at the time and saw Dur
rant when he entered the place.

The Murderer.s Admirer.

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 1.-THE in
crease in the number of witnesses
against Theodore Durrant, and the APP
parent strengthening of the prosecutions
case, has made no difference in the attt-
tude Of the counsel for the defense, who
still maintain that they have something
conclusive in the prisoners favor when
their turn comes at the witness box
The prisoners parents have apparently
lost none of their confidence in their
sons innocence, although they admit
their ignorance of the plan of defense
to be made by their sons attorneys The
defendant seems now to realize the weight
of the case against him, but is as I'M
moved as ever.
The police have at last identified Dur
rants unknown girl admirer, who attends
court every day and who formerly sent
him flowers. She is Rosalind Holland, the
daughter of Well-to-do people living in
Oakland She knew Durrant before the
murder. and says she believes him inno-
cent 1t was suggested that perhaps
funds for Durrant's defense were sup
Piled by this young woman, but it is
doubtful if she could control the amount
sufficient for this purpose.
The expenses of the defense are believed
to be very large.

The ANACONDA.
Another Rumor That 1T May Ee
Sold.

NEW YORK. Sept 15.-The report
became current yesterday that an
Anglo-American syndicate had been
formed with Kuhn, Loeb & Co, bank
ers, as the American Representatives
and the Rothschild Exploration COM
pany as the English members for the
purpose of combining the interests of
European and American copper pro-
ducers. The project has in view the
acquisition of the valuable Anaconda
copper mine in Montana. It is stated
that this concern will be transformed
into a limited company with capital
stock of 100000 in $25 shares. 1t
is also reported, apparently on good
authority that the syndicate will take
100000 shares at $50 each provided the
report of the well known expert
Hamilton Smith confirms the under
stood value of the mine The bar
gain must be consummated at the
latest by October Is.

STAMPINGBAGGAGE.
Serves No Good Purpose and Affords
No Protection.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-Acting
Secretary of the Treasury Hamlin has
informed the collectors of customs on
the frontiers that in the opinion of
the department the practice author
lied many years ago of labelling or
stamping the hand baggage of pas
sengers on their departure from the
United States for other places therein
by routes passing through foreign ter
ritory, serves no good purpose and
affords no protection whatever to the
revenue officers. The discontinuance
of the practice has been ordered and
in lieu thereof the collectors are di-
rected to require their officers to ex-
anime the hand baggage Of passengers
arriving within their collection dis
trict from foreign territories without
regard to the places whence the bag
gage may come.

A SIMILAR CASE.
Discovery of Fraker Recalls the
Missing HilImOn.

Missing HilImOn.
TOPEKA, Kan, Sept. 14.-Ihe ols-
covery of DR.. George w. Fraker IN the
wilds of the northwest has revived IN
terest in a somewhat similar and even
more famous case C. NJ. Foulks,
claim agent of the Santa, Fe, and C.
w. Ryus, his assistant, claim to know
the whereabouts of John w. R1llmon,
and it is understood have made prop
osition to the insurance companies to
give him up for $4,000. For years an
offer of $4,000 reward for Hillmon,
dead or alive, was kept standing. The
attorneys here for the companies say
they do not want Hillmon-that it is
not necessary to produce him in order
to win the suit for insurance now
pending in the federal court.
Hillmon disappeared near Medicine
Lodge. Kan, in 1879, shortly after hav-
ing insured his life for $4,000. His
wife claimed the insurance, and as a
proof of his death produced body al
legged to be Hillmon's. The insurance
companies refused payment. claiming
the body was not that of Hillmon, but
instead was that of one Frederick A.
Walters. who disappeared at the same
time Mrs. HiIlmon brought suit to
collect and the companies fought it.
There have been four trials. Three
times the jury disagreed. Once a YER
dict for the amount claimed was re
turned, but on appeal to the Supreme
Court of the United States the case
was remanded on writ of error for a
new trial. The last trial was at To-
peka last winter. The case is set again
for the fall term at Leavenworth.
The sum now sued for amounts, with
interest, to nearly 100000.

NEW YORK. Sept. 14-Yesterday's
excitement over the financial situation,
engendered by the impression that the
bond syndicate had withdrawn it's Sro-
lection from the government gold re-
serve. was succeeded by a calm to-
day.
There were no developments to add
to the uneasiness, and consequently
the feeling died down. When banking
hours closed at noon there had been
no deposits of gold at the sub-treasury
by any of the city banks. in further
ance of the policy begun yesterday.
and. on the other hand. there had been
no withdrawal for shipment as no
steamer sails on Sunday.
To Keep Out.
1t was reported that the National
City bank had given the syndicate
$1,OO0000 in gold in exchange for green
backs, but the report could not be con-
firmed at the bank in the absence OF
the president. and ]. PierOnt Morgan
declined to say whether it was true or
not. In banking circles it was said
that unless the syndicate received
some gold from the National City bank
yesterday it had no more gold on hand
at present.
These gold certifcates-about So, OOO.-
600 in al1-are not cancelled when paid
in by the syndicate and therefore ap-
pear in the treasury's statement to be
outstanding.
For the convenience of the syndicate
in making deposits they are allowed
to be reissued, the deposits being
treated as coin. Representatives Of
Pittsburg and Rochester banks made
an offer to deposit 81 900, coo in gold in
gold reserve intact. The offer being ac-
companied by the proviso that the
government pay the express charges
on the gold.
