BANDIT CROWLEY
Shows Up to Get Registered in Kern
County.

Ia BAhERSFIELD, X July bandit
Crowley has been heard from again
Some time ago he sent word to Sheriff
BorsWord that he intended coming
down from his hiding place in the
mountains to register, so as to vote next
faH. Sure enough, a day or two ago
he put in an appearance at Caliente.
where there is a Deputy Registrar. who
however, was absent, so that Crowley
did not get his name ON the register.
The bandit spent several hours there
and was not molested He ate at the
motel, drank beer and talked freely with
several persons, making no secret of
his identity. He denied having fired at
Rankln's son, but said he could have
easily killed the Sheriff the last time
he was out, as he was in the brush fiftv
feet from the road when that officer
passed along. The only man against
whom Crowley bears enmity is Tom
Castro, who betrayed him to the off,
GERS, and him he swears to kin on
sight
crowley says he was not the man
who made such sensation near Hav-
wards last fall, but that as soon as he
escaped from the insane asvlum he
came down here and took up his quar-
tiers at Walkers Basin. He worked for
while for Sam Blades. one of the men
whom he threatened to kill, but Blades
would not pay him. So he robbed his
cabin and burned it. Now he SAYS he
will let Blades alone in the future.
Crowley told the whole story of his
trouble in Contra Costa County. and
swears he will never be taken alive to
serve out his twenty-five years sem
tence.
There is evidently another bandit
loose somewhere in the county. A
heavily-armed man appeared at a camp
thirty miles southeast of town last Sat
urcay night, mounted on a mule. and
asked for food. 1t was given him, and
he pretended he wanted to stay all night
and asked the route to TETON Pass. He
left during the night, however. and no
one saw which way he went He had
two large revolvers and a rifle. and in
all respects answered the description of
the man seen hiding or Erskine Creek
early last week, except he had a mule
instead of a horse. Parties at the camp
believe he was murderer Dunham. and
say he answered his newspaper pictures
and descriptions. Beins unarmed, they
did not molest him.

Bandit Crowley Comes Out of His
Hiding Place in Kern County, Max
ing His Appearance at CaIiente,
Where He Wished to Get Regis
the Place, Making No Secret of His
Identity.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 2-The stage
plying between Sonora and Oakdale, in
Stanislaus County, was held up and
robbed at 3 o'clock this morning
The news was received in this city
to-day by Postal Inspectors Munro and
Erwin, who promptly dispatched In
spector Culver to the scene of the
hold-up.
The details thus far received are very
meager, but as far as can be ascertained
the highwayman secured but 500 in
booty
From his mode of procedure it is con-
sidered that the fellow is a novice at
the business, but possessed of admirable
nerve
The stage was swinging along at an
easy gait, when just at a turn in the
road about seven miles east of knights
Ferry, the sleepy driver was startled by
the ringing cry, Hold up, there," At
the same instant a tall man stepped to
the side of the road, and, leveling a
shotgun at the head of the driver, or
dered him to throw out all the mail
bags.
The command was given in an ordi-
nary tone of voice, though the fellow
clearly was determined to succeed in his
Undertaking. The driver at once COM
piled with the request and the highway
man promptly picked up the way"
pouch, as it is called, and in an instant
had disappeared from sight.
The sack contained official letters
mainly, but also had three that were
registered. One of the letters con-
tanned money order in the sum of 800.
RENTED from jamestown to this city.
Just why the robber did not take the
other pouch the postal authorities are
at loss to understand The through
pouch contained a large number of reg
lstered letters. and undoubtedly would
nave made much larger amount than
was taken from the way sack.
AS soon as the stage driver reported
the occurrence at knights Ferry a
posse was organized and dispatched on
the trail of the highwayman A similar
posse also started out from Sonora.

Call for Meeting of all Silver Men
f0r Tonight.

CHICAGO, July 1.-The subcommittee
OF the National Bimetallic Committee
held an informal meeting this morning
and issued a call for a meeting of all
silver delegates on the ground to-mor-
row night 1t was developed that
months since the National BimetalIic
Committee laid plans by which it
should be furnished with signed dupli-
Gates of the credentials of every set
OF silver delegates elected to the con-
Vention and a number of them were re-
celved to-day. These duplicates are
in every respect a counterpart of the
originals, and are not even indorsed
as duplicates, and hence may be used
as original credentials if occasion re-
quires. When asked for an explanation
of this Secretary Towles said
There are some practical politicians
as we'll as practical statesmen on this
committee. and we have not been over
looking anything. Sometimes you
know papers get mislaid and confu-
sion and complications result Moth
ing of the kind will happen so far as
we are concerned. OF every set of Gre
dentials issued to a delegate at large
or to a district delegation we have its
counterpart. One cannot be told from
the other. If any of our people lose
their papers we can supply the def
cheney. Moreover, we know just how
these are instructed and how they are
expected to stand when they get here"
Ex-Governor Osborne of Wyoming,
the only Democratic Executive that
State has had since it's admission, and
who was elected in spite of the fact
that the State went Republican on
national issues, arrived at the Sher-
man House this afternoon. He is Chair
man of the delegation. To a United
Pres reporter he said:
Political issues have been lost sight
of in Wyoming for the time being, and
the question is simply one of silver
against gold. The State will go for
whoever may be the silver candidate.
We have no choice, but whoever is
nominated by this convention upon
silver platform will receive Wyoming's
electoral vote. For myself I would pre-
fer a silver Democrat, but if we can
not get one we would take Senator
Teller or anyone else, so long as it is a
free silver ticket and a free silver can
.didate"

Populist national convention
"The Gazette" predicted
that, no matter what action
the leaders of that party
might take, the great body
of Populist voters would be
found in line for Bryan and
Sewall. 1t will be remember
ed that the Texas leaders
were the most vehement and
uncompromis.ng middle-of-
the-roaders in the convention,
They returned home, held a
state convention and nomi-
mated candidates for state
offices. Ever since that time
they have been dickering
with the Republicans, going.
even to the extent of agree
ing to support Mckinley
electors for Republican sup
port of their state ticket.
This was the Stump Ash
bys, "Cyclone" Davis, Bar
ney Gibbses and Jerome
Kearbys. But their game is
blocked. They not only find
that they cannot make their
party support a Mckinley
electoral ticket, but the
great majority refuse to sup
port a Bryan and Watson
ticket and will cast their
vote for Bryan and Sewall.
Among the latest to take
this position is Hon. H. M.
Walton, who is the Populist
nominee for attorney gener-
al. He has resigned his
position on the ticket. Re
viewing both the Republican
and Democratic national
tickets he says he finds that
either the one or the other
will be elected, and as he
prefers Bryan and Sewall to
Mckinley and Hobart he will
cast his vote for them anG he
advises the Texas Populists
to do the same, The clos
Ing paragraph of his card
reads as follows:
