SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 26.-The list of

OFFICERS HUNTING HOBART
The Arizona Desperate Failed to Cove r
His Tracks
The Public Is Aroused Because Numerous
Murders Have Occurred Recently.
Threats Of Lynching

PRESCOTT, Ariz., Oct. 26.-Officcrs
have been securing the country for Ho-
bart, the desperate, ever since ten MIN
utes after the murder OF John Miller on
Thursday evening, but not until this
morning was any definite clue obtained
of him. Last night at o'clock the horse
ridden by the desperate on the night OF
the murcer retnured, and his condition
showed that he had not been ridden
hard. This morning telephone message
was received from Chapparel stating that
man answering to his description had
been met last night on foot within three
miles OF Mayors station, or only about
twenty-five miles from Prescott.
On receipt of the news Sheriff Ruffner,
with three deputies and two Indian trail
ers, started imm ediately in pursuit and
telsphoned from Chapparel this afternoon
that fuller description obtained of the
man met last night FROM parties who met
him, corresponds exactly with that of
Hobart. The officers mounted fresh
horses and pushed forward as rapidly as
possible, hoping to overtake him this
evening. Hobart is armed with Win
chester and carries belt full OF cart
ridges, and unless surprised by the Off
GERS 1t is thought he will make desper-
ate hehG for his life. Public feeling is
considerably worked up over the murder
and talk of lynching him is INDUCED in,
if he is brought back alive. Sentiment is
strong from the fact that within the past
few months six murders have been COM
mltted in this section. One of the IN ur-
derers was killed by officers while trying
to escape, two are in Jail under convIc-
ton and sentence of death, awaiting ap-
peal to the supreme court, while two 9TH
ers are in Jail awaiting trial.

MADE A CLEAN BREAST OF 1T
But His Pockets Have Already Been
Cleaned Out
Secretary Orr of the State Insane Asylum
$4,000 Short-The Office Ie
Declared Vacant

STOCKTON, Oct. 26. Tho expert ap-
pointed to examine the accounts of Major
Orr, the seurstary ana treasurer of the
board OF directors OF the state asylum for
the insane for the past thirteen years,
today reported a shortage of $40, 1872. The
otfice WAS declared vacant today and
bank officer was appointed to succeed
Orr, to make a demand on him for the
money. Major Orr has been the
treasurer and secretary for the past
thirteen years, and duri ng that time he
has not made a report about the funds,
and the directors have never called for a
report. Six weeks ago Director Steffans
noticed erasures in the accounts that ex-
cited his suspicious, and the examin alton
of the books was N ade on his suggestion.
The shortage is mainly in the account of
moneys received from patients delivered
at the asylum, and cleans out fund that
has been accumulating for twenty wears
or more. The directors will demand the
money from his bUndsmen. but they will
not pay without a contest, claiming th at
tfey are not liable beyond the term of
four years. Orr has held on as contin-
uous officer, but other officers and the
doctors are elected for four-year terms,
and he gave only one bond many years
ago. The secretary and treasurer is
elected to serve during the pleasure of
the board. MAJOR Orr made q clean breast
of the defalcation when charged with it
by the directors ana did not give any ex-
cuses. director says the major did not
how much he was short, ana when the
amount was stated to MIN il staggered
him. 1t is said that the shortage dates
back TO 1885. ana that il com N enced by
the officer taking small sums which he
expected TO make good out of his
monthly salary of $50, ana when lie
found he could not make it good he lost
hope and went deeper. He did not save
dollar, but spent the money in conviv-
iality. Major Orr has been a prominent
citizen here for many years and is an
able man. He was in the news paper
business number of years and recently
was delegate to the free silver conven-
ton in San Francisco.

received by several foreign houses to place
the sums of money, aegregating several
million dollars. on time, but as the rate
demanded was too high the funds were
EN- mpolye1 on call loans, creating tenn
porary weakness in the market. The
banks showed an actual increase OF $99l,
500 IN cash holding during the week;
the loss of $30S, 900 in legal tenders being
more than compensated by the gain of
81, 299 500 in specie. The sudden increase
OF the latter may be ascribed as much to
local transfers and the shifting of funds
as any other cause. The deposits for the
past week show falling off of $1,270,-
900. and the effect of the weeks opera
tlons has been to increase the reserve to
81, $780, 600. The state ment as whole is
not encouraging and reflects conditions
which appear rather narrow. Bankers
cannot believe that the heavy movem.
of money is over and higher rate Is

Sterling exchange continues high and
we seem to be- at a stage where it would
take but little to turn the tide either

THE VENEZUELAN CLAIMS
Should Have Been Enforced With q
Maxim Gun
The British Ultimatum Has Not Reached
Caracas-On Monday the Venezuelan
Cabinet Will Be Named

WASHINGTON, Ocr. 26.-The action
of the British Guiana authorizes in re-
jecting by vote of 10 to the policy
urged by British Minister Cham berlain
for arming the Venezuelan frontier with
Maxim guns, as exclusively told in the
Associated Press dispatches, excltes in.
terest in Official and diplomat C circles.
1t is said to be a most unusual course
for the colonial government to reject the
advice of the home government on ques-
tions of important public policy. 1t ap.
pears also that following the adverse
action in British Guiana the London
foreign Office cabled directions to Sir
Charles Lees. governor-generai of the
colon". to return to London. 1t is stated
here that this was equivalent to q recall
and the belief Is expressed that ii indi-
Gates the disproval of the London authori-
ties of the int bility OF the gGvernor-gen-
eral to carry out the policy laid down by
Minister Cham berlain. The position OF
nitv that il is not usual to summon him
to London merely for consultation
although this happened when the Nene-
zuelan question reached critical stage
in 1871. Among those in position to be
best informed the belief its quite positive
that Sir Charles has been recall ed and
that the ac,ion of the Guiana council is
the direct cause of it. The governor-gen-
eral is now on his way to London.
The British ultimatum has snot yet
reached Caracas. The understanding
here is that it was forwa,d ded from Lon
don to Berlin ana thence BY steamer from
Hamburg to La Guayra. The trip would
take two or three weeks, so that its re-
ceipt in Venezula is anticipated within
the nsxt few days.
Monday is the "feast of Bolivar" the
national holiday OF Venezuela. and it is
believed that President Crespo will take
occasion on that day to name the mem
bers of his new cabinet, incuding the
minister OF foreign affairs.
