DUNHAM. Or HIS DOUBLE
Capture of a McGlincy Murder
Suspect by an 0uray
(Colo) Man.
The Prisoner Prospector Who
Resembles the Fugitive'S
Photograph.

SAN JOSE, CAL, Sept. 11.-Under
Sheriff Benson received a dispatch from
W. c. Stetler of Ouray, Colo, tonight,
stating that a mining prospector giving
his name as w. D. Henry had been ar
rested on suspicion of being the murderer
of Colonel McGlincy and family at
Campbell Stetler had been trailing the
suspect for over a month, and stated he
was confident that he had captured the
right man.
Upon receiving the dispatch, Under
Sheriff Benson telegraphed to Stetler for
a complete description OF the man ar
rested. In answer to this, Stetler re-
spOnded that he would send photograph
of the man tomorrow. He stated that
the Sheriff and Marshal at Ouray had re-
fused 10 assist him.
The latter part of this dispatch made
the authorities here very dubious in re-
gard to the correctness of the statement of
Stetler that he had captured the real Dun
ham. The Sheriff has received no word
from any of the authorities in Ouray in
regard TO the man, and this adds to their
lack of credence in the report that Dun
ham has been apprehended.
The Sherlff's office has been in COM
munication with Stetler since August 1,
when letter was received from him ask.
ing for a description and photograph of
the murderer. This was sent, and be re.
piled that ne was satisfied he had Dunham
located, and that he was prospecting in
the mountains about five miles from
Ouray
He said that the Sheriff and Marshal
agreed with him that the suspect was none
other than Dunham, but advised that ar
rest be deferred until the suspect came
into the city,
Under Sheriff Benson in answer stated
that II the man was Dunham ne should be
arrested without delay, but advised Stetler
to leave the matter to the discretion of the
authorities

Cullough, nominee for Assem- byman Of

than passing notice. The gentleman said
IN quiet but emphatic tones that the man
who received his vote for the United

himself in favor of restricted foreign i'm.
migration; secondly, he must be in favor
OF protective tariff, and finally, he must
occupy no doubtful position in relation tc

cheered to the echo.

The Party's Anti-Silver Record
Since It's Organization
Exposed.
ALWAYS A FOE TO THE METAL
Free Coinage Now Advocated TO Re
cover Its Prestige With the
Ballot.HolGers.

MODESTO, CAL, Aug. 1.-THE public
meeting tonight under the auspices of
the Stanislaus Mckinley Club was largely
attended. After preliminary music and
singing by the glee clubs, the meeting was
addressed by c. T. Elliott, from the stand
point of farmer, followed by Hon. T. G.
Hooking. Mr.. Elliott reviewed and COM
pared the records of the Democratic and
Republican parties, proving Republican
administration the best friend of the peo-
pie. In strong terms he denounced the
Democrats for bringing forth the issue of
free coinage of silver, pronouncing it only
a ruse of politics. He said the people did
not want free coinage, and if they did the
Democratic party would not give it to
them. Their cry of reduction of the tariff
was worn out and reproductive, so new
movement had to be made to have any
force at all.
"If Democrats wanted free coinage why
did they in 1892 prohibit the use of the
word free before the word coinage in
the Chicago PLATFORM Why did they not
in 1894, when in co complete control, take
steps toward silver free coinage? Their
actions were inconsistent; they never had
been the friends of silver" the speaker
declared. 1.-THE records show that in 1906
President Jefferson stopped the coinage of
silver and it was not resumed for thirty
years. In 1853 the same party again en-
acted against silver, making it not legal
tender for more than So. In 1857 another
Democratic act deprived the people of the
use of silver TO the extent of 100, ,000,0 900 sill
yer dollars more. Therefore tue cry tor free
coinage now is only ruse to eaten the un-
thinking classes.
Following this Mr.. Elliott discussed the
question Of reciprocity and the tariff,
claiming the tariff tinkering by the Demo-
Gratis brought about loss to the farmers
of 81, ,222 374, coo in the last four years, and
loss to the laboring classes of 81 ,030,-
10000 in the last four years.
Applause greeted every point that Mr..
Elliott made. Mr. Hooking took up the
Democratic argument that free silver
would increase the prices of commodities
from 80 to 100 per cent. He showed that
unless the wage of labor was raised in pro-
portion labor would he the loser, and he
demonstrated clearly that labor could not
expect such proportionate increase.
He applied this argument in particular
to the gold miners. whose wage had been
a standard for thirty years. and who
could not, by any reason or means, expect
q nickel advance, showing that the effect
OF an increase of 90 per cent or of any per
cent in the price of commodities would
simply cut the purchasing price of their
wage a like per cent
The speaker attributed the present de-
preston to the threat OF free trade and
the subsequent unwise tinkering with the
tariff, showing that on an average an an
nual balance of trade of $l00, 900 900 in
favor of the United States had been lost
and the balance turned against this
country

Mrs. Emma Dougherty OF San Francisco
was on the stand to-day. Most of the
courts time was taken up with argument
by Mr., Delmas and Mr.. Coogan as to
allowing Drs. Dougherty to testify regard
ing George II. Parker's mental condition
in 1892. Mr.. Delmas maintained that SUBJ
stantial proof must be given to show
Parker's unsoundness of mind before the
testimony would be admissible and the
court so held. Judge Reynolds said that
whatever Parker had told the witness
about his relations with his son could be
admitted.
