ARCATA, CAL, May 2.-An effort is
being made throughout Humboldt County
by prominent citizens to secure the CO.
operation of the San Francisco merchants
and business organizations to accomplish
the connection of Eureka with San Fran
cisco by long-distance. telephone. The ne
cessity for this is imperative, if San Fran
cisco merchants wish to hold Eureka and
other towns in this county against the in
roads of Portland jobbers. Hundreds of
tons of merchandise are constantly arriv-
ing from Portland. The gap to be closed
does not exceed ninety miles, and q long

SAN JOSE, CAL, May Judges Rey-
nolds and Lorigan, sitting in banc to-day,
dismissed the accusations filed against
Supervisors A. Greeninger, s. f. Aver.
George E. Rea and John Roll by Edward
Halsey.
Halsey was employed as expert by the
last Grand Jury, and, it is claimed by the
accused, that because the board refused to
allow bill for work other than that OF
expert, he sought to have the defendants
removed from Office for neglect of duties
and fined $500 each, which, he claimed,
should go to the informer. Supervisor
Selby, who had moved that Halsey' claim
be paid, was not mentioned in the com:
plant.
The court upheld the Supervisors in all
the acts mentioned in the complaint, and
ordered the charges dismissed for lack oi
grounds. Halsey was also scored at length

SEATTLE, WASH, May g. Patriotic
Indians living In the extreme southern
part of Alaska have made an application
to Postmaster Meen of this city for a
branch postoffice. The application is in
the form OF letter from Joseph Hamblet
OF the Metlakatla tribe, who wrote to his
sister, Miss Alice Bell Hamblet of this city.
asking her to see Postmaster Meen. Miss
Hamblet is q teacher of elocution at the
Acme Business College. While her father
is OF the Caucasian race her mother is a
full-biooded Metlakatla and the queen of
that tribe, and she believes in educating
her people.
The letter received by Miss Hamblet
breathes poetic fervor strange to the
people to which Joseph Hamblet belongs,
and gives some interesting information
about them. He says the town they live
in has 800 inhabitants. They have just
completed plapking the sidewalks and
water works and electric-light works will
soon be finished. A new church is also
nearly completed.

CARSON, New, May John T. Jones,
charged with stealing bullion from the
United States Mint IN this city, stands
convicted. When Foreman Williams arose
and handed in the verdict at 4 clock this
aftern oon deathly palor came over the
face of Jones. He had pinned his faith on
several young men on the jury who he
thought would be for him. When the
word was pronounced that settled his fate
his head dropped, but he soon braced up
and started with the Marshal to the jail.
AS Jones passed along the street crowds
gathered, full of curiosity. AS he met ac-
quaintances he nodded, but tears were in
his eyes and his face was grave. Inside
the Jail Marshal Humphrey searched him
for weapons or poison, as he had said that
if convicted he would commit suicide.
It IS considered almost certain that ar
rests will follow this week of persons in

A Trio of Morris Agents Swear
That They Forged Names
to Petitions.
SANTA MoNICA's BOGUS BOOM.
Testimony Of the Forgers Dispatched
to Washington in Charge of
T. E. Gibbon.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, May 2.-The more
the frauds in gathering names for the
Santa Monica petitions are probed the
more offensive is the odor they give forth.
AS the matter stands now, there will not
be one name in dozen that will prove to
be the signature of any one but mythical
personages, existing only in the imagina-
tlons OF the unscrupulous men who did
the work.
This morning the Free Harbor League
agents secured three more affidavits from
men who aided in the fraud. +. McGoy-
ern, waiter, swears that at the request of
E. D. Morris he signed nine names to the
Southern Pacific petition. w. P. Parker,
a painter, makes affidavit that he wrote
twenty OF the fraudulent signatures. A..
McBain swears that he wrote fifteen of
them.
These forged signatures have been used
by Coils P. Huntington and his agents in
an attempt to make Congress believe that
they represented the wishes of the people
of Los Angeles.
Hon. L. e. Gibbon, vice-president of the
Los Angeles Terminal Railway and a
member Of the Free Harbor League, left
here for Washington this morning with
his pockets buiging with documentary evi-
dence calculated to convict the Santa
Monica boomers of this villainy. It is ex-
pected that he will reach Washington be-
fore the final consideration of the harbor
question.

Los ANGELES, CAL, May 2.-"Take
the things out of hereT exclaimed Judge
Shaw this morning, and oteying this direc-
ton two deputies lugged away q big oil
painting, which the papers in the case of
Nellie Cummings VS.. Constable Yonkin
described as being "a study in nude. :,
The figure was that of a reclining woman
young and pretty, but clad in the garb of
Eve.
Some time ago James E. Wool procured
a Judgment against Miss Cummings for
$9o Pursuant TO an execution Constable
Yonktn levied upon this picture. Miss
Cummings filed notice with him that the
painting was by her own hand, for her own
use, and not intended to sell. AS such it
was claimed to be exempt from execution.
The picture was found hanging on the
wall OF saloon, which appears to have
been the use to which Miss Cummings put
it. Miss Cummings claimed that the value
OF the painting was $400. and, with cruel
thrust at all artistic instinct, the attorney
on the other side appraised it at $40.
Whether or not the picture is exempt is
a point which Judge Shaw is holding un-
der advisement.

SCOTT JAoksON,s TRIAL.
Eeidence introduced for the Defense of
the Alleged Murderer.

the Alleged Murderer.
CINCINNATI, OHIO, May David r.
Locke resumed the stand in the Jackson
trial this morning and testified further as
to the blood on the farm of his brother,
where the headless body of Pearl Bryan
was found. Under cross-examination he
said two or three persons could have gone
to the place without leaving any tracks
at all.
Attorneys Andrews and Sheppard of
Hamilton, Ohio, testified that Allen John
son, the colored porter at Wallingford' s
saloon, said to them that he did not know
what evening it was that jackson and
Walling were in the saloon with Pearl
Bryan and that he did not see them go
:out as he was In the front room at the
time.
f. Several dispositions rejecting on the
reputation of George II. Jackson, the
colored coachman, were read.
Mrs. Edwin Post, the sister OF Scott
jackson, testified. to the effect that the
prisoners reputation in Greencastle, prior
TO his arrest, was good.
Miss Ruth Gottlieb, newspaper re-
porter. described the scene whore the body
was found. The witness said she wore
new rubbers.
Miss McNevin of the Ninth street house
where Jackson and Walling roomed said
Jackson was in his room Friday night, at
least until II or II: 80, as she did not retire
until that time.
There was lively tilt between counsel
at the afternoon session. Colonel Nelson,
the Prosecuting Attorney made a remark
rejecting on Colonel Crawford, who said {:
81 want TO know what the gentleman
means, for l intend TO hold him person
ally responsible before he leaves this court
room" For this threat he was fined $25
for contempt.
Miss Rose McNevin was cross-examined
by Colonel Nelson, but she stuck to her
story that Scott Jackson was positively in
his room as late as 1890 o'clock Friday
night. Dispositions were read from John
ii. Morrison, dentist; Alva P. Brockwav
Thomas e. Darnell, Deputy County Clerk
and J. W. Groom, all of Greencastle, Ind,
to the effect that Jackson had good repu-
tation in that place.
Court then adjourned until Monday.

THE PORTLAND SMUGcLERS.
Fraudulent Certificates Sent to China and
Sold to Coolies Desiring to Enter
This Country.

PORTLAND, Or, May 2.-"It's the old
story of the pitcher going to the well once
too often," said a prominent customs
official to-day when questioned as to the
arrest of Swope, Dement, and Dolan, the
men charged with conspiracy against the
United States in having aided in the Illegal
landing of Chinese in this country.
"Swope have considerable sympathy
for" he continued, "but as to the other
two men the Government proposes to
rigidly prosecute both, it possessing evil
dence in abundance to show their guilt
particularly so with Dolan. 1t can be
proved that since arriving in Portland he
has had no really legitimate employment
aside from some Front-street commission
transactions, and has existed by just such
methods as contained in the working
through the Custom house of these
Chinese.
Dement, has a sort of position as an
Oriental poll-tax collector and occasion
ally serves as Japanese interpreter, but
the atfidavits of the witnesses employed
by the combine show him to be equally
guilty with Dolan. Swope has acted more
as go-between than anything else, his
connection with the Custom-house having
given him large acquaintance with the
chinese merchants of this city, which was
OF value in locating the agents of the ap-
plicants for landing.
The scheme worked is exactly the
same as In the case in which Nat Blum
turned states evidence and testified
against Mulkey, Dunbar, Lotan and others
TWO years ago. The fraudulent certificates
were made out here. taken to China and
there sold, with the understanding and
guarantee that on the arrival of the pur-

animation before Collector OF Customs

formed Sheriff Parker that if the latter
would ieaye the room and take his men
with him he would clear the room of
stragglers and leave the office just as it
was found. This the Sheriff agreed to and
withdrew his men.

Chief OF Police and his officers rushed in
and torclbly elected Mullen. Sheriff Parker,
hearing OF this, returned with his men,
and pitched battle seemed imminent,
but the Sheriff's deputies were hustled out
OF the hall and Doherty took the office for
which he has been fighting for thirty days.
Shortly afterward the Chief of Police was
arrested and charged with assault.
