FIGHT TO SAVE THEIR GOLD.
The Assailant a Man Who Met and
Accompanied Them on Their
Tramp.

SACRAMENTO, CAL, March "A sim
gle highwayman to-day held up two Japa-
nese mile beyond Arno, station twenty
miles south of this city. They resisted
and one was shot and killed, while the
other received bullet through the left
lung and will probably die. The wounded
man describes the outlaw as dark COM
plexioned man of medium size and wear
ing black derby hat. He had met the
Japanese on the road from Gait and &C.
companied them toward Arno.
The news of the hold-up and murder
was brought to Arno by tramp. He told
Hugh Mcguire, a storekeeper, that three
Japanese were travelling along the railroad
track when they met man with a rife.
The latter stopped the Japanese, and
as they showed fight, he shot and killed
one and wounded another. The Justice of
the Peace at Gait went to the scene of the
Sheriff Johnson that the supposed
murderer was heading toward Sacramento.
The dead Japanese was taken to Gait
and the wounded one put on train and
sent TO the County Hospital.
On his arrival here the wounded Jap told
a different story from that sent from Calf.
He says there were only two Japs-him-
self and the one that was killed. They
were coming this way from Stockton with
the stranger, who was armed with rifle.
When near Arno their companion stopped
them and demanded their money. Tney
showed fight and he used his rifle.

LOS ANGELES, CAL, March 3.-The
storm continued steadily all last night,
and almost without intermission to-day.
Showers of hail fell at intervals, and un-
doubtedly caused some damage to budding
fruits. No washouts are reported, but a
heavy fall of snow in the Caion pass pre-
vented the passage of trains there to-day.
Travellers who arrived from the north
this morning stated that from Mojave
south to Newhall the ground was covered
by from four inches to foot and half of
snow. At Beaumont, on the Southern Pa
cific, on the edge of the desert, up to
o'clock this morning four inches had
fallen, and more was coming as fast as it
could tumble down. The downpour of
rain extended as far out on the Colorado
desert as Mammoth Tank, while at Ell
Casco the showers were frequent and
heavy. No damage is reported, except for
a few minor accidents at sea, from the yio
lence of the storm. Enough rain has
fallen now to make good crops certain, and
as the mountains are filling up with snow
there can be no question about the water
sources being all filled, so as to make the
supply for next summer assured. The
weather bureau predictions are: Rain and
probably light snow tonight; continued

SANTA BARBARA IS SUED,
Attempt of the State to Restore
the Lines of an Old
Survey.
Property.Holders Believed to Have
Instigated the Action in
Court.

SANTA BARBARA, CAL, March 3.-A
peculiar suit was to-day instituted in the
Superior Court by the State of California,
through Attorney-General Fitzgerald,
against the city of Santa Barbara, assert
ing that the defendant has unlawfuliy
erected and maintained an obstruction
across Mission street, on Hollister avenue,
and threatens to erect similar distractions
across the same street at points where other
streets intersect, the alleged obstruction
being a redwood plank set on edge and
spiked to posts.
Inquiry into this mysterious complaint
reveals the fact that the obstruction in
question is the curbing lining the sidewalk
ad iacent to residence lots near those inter
secting streets, but wholly outside of the
open thoroughfaIe now known as Mission
street. Residents of this city owning
property in the vicinity are said to have
instigated the suit, which is really re-
newed effort to restore the lines of the
NORWAY survey, which would move Mission
street forty-five feet back from its present
line.

put where they were found, the purpose
being to restore the vessel and contents to
their exact condition at the time of the
seizure. AS far as the Government is con.
cerned, the Bermuda was practically free
early this afternoon, but there yet re-
mained upon her the libel obtained by the
]. n. Remsln Company, drydock and out
fitting firm, for eleven hundred and some
odd dollars. The suit upon which this
was obtained was settled shortly after
O'Clock this afternoon, and the Bermuda
is now free from ali detention.
LAWYER E. r. Olcott, who represents
General Garcia and his associates, who are
awaiting examination Oh the charge OF
having violated the neutrality laws, said
to-day that the seizure of the explosives
upon the J. S. T. Stranahan would be con-
tested upon the claim that the boxes had
been properly marked. The case will
come up in the United States Court
March II.
Late this afternoon Marshal Mccarthy
and deputies went on board the Bermuda
and arrested Thomas Nelson, chief engi-
neer; James Howden. second engineer,
and C. C. Taylor, chief steward, to be held
as witnesses. They were brought before
Judge Brown of the United States District
Court who fixed the bail in each case at
$500, ana pending the filing of bonds the
men were detained in the MarshaPs office.
After waiting until o'clock for bail bonds
for the three men detained as witnesses
the Marshal allowed them to go into the
custody of their counsel, f. r. Olcott, who

from the consular service at this critical
aspect of the relations of Spain and the
United States is somewhat surprising, par
ticularlv as he returned to Cuba not many
months ago with the understanding, as it
was supposed here, that he would remain
until the instruction had reached some
definite settlement.
It was understood at that time that Con-
sul-General Williams had become persona
non grata to the Spanish authorities in
Cuba for the reason that through West
Indian express agency IN Brooklyn, with
which his brother was connected, an al
leced underground method OF communlca-
ton had oeen opened with the insurgents.
It was also SAID that while this was put
forward unofficialiy as a reason Tor Mr..
Williams desired retirement, another
very notent factor in his unpopularity was
his insistence upon the rights OF American
citizens to fair trial and treatment IN
Cuba. On this latter question, as TO
the right of the United States Consul
General to act in a quasl-diplomatlc ca
nacitv and present remonstrances to the
canta1n-general of Cuba when liberties
of American citizens were involved, some
very pointed cores espondence TOOK place
between Secretary Olney and the spanish
Minister in Washington.
In letter dated September %, 1895, and
laid before Congress by The President Feb
ruary II last, Secretary OIney distinctly
asserted the rights of the Consul-General
IN make representations where the rights
of his countrvmen were involved, "simply
as the local depositary and delegate of the
sovereign power for the purpose ana to the
extent of the usages fixed by treaty, and
he said to the Spanish Minister: Il ad-
dress this note to you in the expectation
that the direct relations known to exist
between yourself and the superior author
ity in Cuba will enable you TO set the Gov
ernor-G General right upon this important
point"
The Governor-Generalw was set right, and
Consul-General Williams, who awaited
decision on this matter at his home in
Brooklyn, n. Y, returned to his post of
duty with a distinct recognition of his
power of remonstrance in the name of the
United States.
Mr.. Williams came on to Washington in
response to a request, and at the soliclta-
ton, as it is understood, of the President
and the Secretary of State, decided to re-
turn to his post.
Mr.. Williams has been in continuous
service in a consular capacity at Havana
since 1874. He of course speaks Spanish
tiuently, and has discharged the duties of
his position with marked ability, though
alternately charged with favoring first one
side and then the other IN the insurrec-
tionary troubles on the island. The pre-
else reason for his resignation at this time
is a secret carefully guarded at the State
Department.

ASSETS ARE VERY HEAVY,
But the Central Trust Bank Is
Forced to Make an AS.
signment.
Slow Liquidation, Hard Times and
Misplaced Confidence Cause
the Failure,

CHICAGO, ILL, March 3.-The Central
Trust and Savings Bank of this city made
an assignment this afternoon to the Chi
cago Title and Trust Company. The bank
has done large business for number of
years, principally among the Scandina-
Wan population of the city. Frank S.
Weigley, the banks attorney, stated that
there were $3.50, 900 OF assets with which to
meet $50, 900 of liabilities, not including a
claim of $4,000 which is in litigation
the Atlas National Bank. through which
the Central Trust cleared, holding Vice
President William A. Paulsen's personal
note for that amount secured by the banks
Endorsement. The deposits are estimated
between $4,000 and 100000. There is in
cash in the bank 20 per cent of the total
amount of deposits, and the assignee,
after a cursory examination, sent a cir
cular letter to all depositors announcing
that the bank appeared to have assets
more than ample to pay depositors in full.
An order from the court will be asked for
tomorrow to pay a dividend on claims OF
depositors. The banks building is valued
at 500 600.
The immediate cause of the closing of
the bank was the fact that the Atlas Ma
tional Bank sent their clearings back an
hour before the time required to send them
in order TO protect itself. 1t was expected
up to / O'Clock this afternoon that an ar
rangement would be made to dispose of
the stock to responsible parties SO that the
bank could settle all claims, as the action
taken by the Atlas Bank was expected.
Mr. Paulsen wrote to the directors of
the bank, in which he holds $125 900 of the
100000 of stocks, last Saturday, advising
an assignment, because the bank was pur-
suing losing method of slow liquidation
and charging the failure to hard times and
misplaced confidence in President Grannis
of the Atlas Bank.
