LIVELY CHASE AT FRESNO.
crczy Tramp Captured While Trying to
Get Away With a Southern
Pacific Ticket

FRESNO. CAL, Oct. 2l.-A man ap-
peared at the window of the local ticket
Office of the Southern Pacific at 8 o'clock
this morning and asked Agent Avila for
ticket to Los Angeles. The agent stamped
ticket and gave it to the applicant. ex-
pecting that he would pay for it. Instead
the man handed Avila slip of paper on
which was scribbled the following:
C. P Huntington: 1 got ticket to Los An
geles from your Fresno agent This makes US
even for the time left Albany for San Iran
cisco, when you beat me out of So.
7. Ii. BARNEsS
The man then ran out of the depot and
Agent Avila gave chase. He wanted the
ticket back, as he would be held response
BILE for IT. He did not consider that
Barness' written explanation would be
satisfactory to Coils. Policeman Clifton
joined in the pursuit and Barness was
captured at the park. He refused TO give
up the ticket ami was taken to jail, where
he was compelled 10 let Avila have it.
Barness is undoubtedly unbalanced
mentally. He is q typical hobo. He SAYS
that he purchased a ticket from Albany,
Or, to San Francisco about three years
ago and paid Sic for it. He asked the
agent for the cheapest fare, which was So,
but this was refused him. He was thereby
beaten out of So, he claims, and this morn
ing he conceived the idea of getting even.
Before the ticket episode Barness went
into the depot hotel and ordered a 40-cent
breakfast. He devoured it ravenously,
but when asked to pay for it he offered
only 10 cents. He was impudent and
walked out of the dining-room.

CERTAIN FOE MoK1NLEY.
Good NesCs Prom the Dakotds, Kansas
aud Nebraska.

CHICAGO, ILL, Oct. 21-Committee-
man Payne said to-day that the mail re-
ceived at Republican National headquar-
tiers from the Dakotas, Nebraska and
Kansas contained reports which proved
beyond doubt in his mind that those
States would give substantial majorities
for Mckinley, showing that he was right
in adding those States to the sure column
and. thus sustaining Chairman Hanna s
claim OF over 800 electoral votes.
Senator Allison came in from Iowa on
his way to Indiana. He spoke in Indian
apolis tonight, and goes TO Jacksonville,
H., tomorrow. The Senator will deliver
an address at Minneapolis on October 90,
and will close the campaign in his own
State. His confidence in a big majority
for Mckinley in Iowa is mistaken.
Mr.. Hanna, when he read the letter
claimed to have been written General
Weles by Major Mckinley in regard to
the Sigourney pension, declared it to De
forgery. He said the letter carried on its
face the TACT that it was not genuine,
because it was directly opposed to Mckin-
key's record on pensions during his public
career Besides, it was evident tha the
letter was never written by the major,
because at the time it was alleged to have
been sent. ior Mckinley signed himself
William Mckinley, Jr., while the alleged
letter omitted the Junior.

if bail is not forthcoming he will have to

will prove fatal to the prisoner.
The Government examiner found that
another official of the bank besides Wat

that he personally was not guilty OF rob

ARRESTED AT CORONADO.
Nce-President of Defunct Ohio Bank
Accused of Having Faksifed Returns
to the ComptroNer
to the CompfroHeI

SAN DIEGO, CAL, Oct. 21.-Jefferson
l. Watkins, late vice. president and head
bookkeeper of the collapsed Farmers
National Bank at Portsmouth. Ohio, was
arrested this evening at Coronado by
United States Deputy MarshalW W. J. Oakes
of Los Angeles. Watkins is charged with
rendering false reports of the banks con-
dition to the Comptroller of the Currency.
The bank failed last January, and Wat
kins turned over about 100000 worth of
his property to satisfy his creditors, but
since that time the Federal Grand Jury
has been at work. and it has returned an
indictment against him on forty-two
counts.
Watkins came to Coronado with his
wife and two daughters six months ago
and leased cottage. He is about go years
of age and very i'll, SO that it is not likely
that he will live to go through the trial.
He was sitting on the porch of his cottage
when the officer served the papers. He
was completely prostrated by the sudden
turn of affairs and is now in bed.
The officer put guard over him and
came over to this side, placing the papers
before United States Commissioner
Knoles. who fixed the bail at $50, 900.

The San Francisco call., 1896-10-22

United States is so much troubled about 1t as
the manager of the Republican party.
l never realized before how Republicans
have always respected" and "honored'' the
Populist party till it fused with the Dem
ocratic party. If any consolation is needed,
however, for this loss of Republican esteem, IL
may be found in the fact that Messrs. CleVe-
land, Carlisle and Palmer have become the
legateeS thereof
Our political allies in this campaign may
not have treated US as fairly and justly as they
ought in the matter OF representation OF Vice
Presidential electors, and this seems TO be the
chief cause of compl aint, for l have yet to
meet with Populist who does MOI admit that
Bryan is the ablest and most fearless champion
OF reform principles that the re!ormers them
selves have chosen in the last twenty years.
1t is an event in history TO find man backed
by more than 100000 votes who has the
patriotism and courage TO stand up faced by
the combined and battle-worn flag of reform
that the old guard has held aloft braVely and
heroically all these long years, and anxious
solicitude as to the outcome may be eXeus-
able.
But let US not be unnecessarily alarmed
about the future of the reform movement. 1t
has passed the danger point. 1t is capable of
taking care of itself under any and all circum-
stances. Traitors cannot betray it; time
servers cannot sell it out; injudicious friends
cannot destroy it; defeat cannot demoraliZe
il; its opponents, however powerful and crafty,
cannot crush it; even the gates of he'll cannot
prevail against it.
For twenty years, although subjected to all
the dangerous pitfalls, perils and quicksands
incident TO the development of new party, il
has grown to be the greatest factor in the
arena of American politics to-day. And if
elected believe that Mr.. Bryan will not be
slow to reco gnize this fact and that he will
soon learn to rely upon the counsel and sup
port of the new party which has revolution
lied the politics of the country, forced
to the front new and vital issues and made
it possible for the people, instead OF office
seeking politicians, to place champion of
progressive ideas at the head OF the Govern
ment. l believe that he will appreciate the
fact that we have placed in the hollow of
his hand, not only the selfish hopes and patri-
otie aspirations OF The Peoples party, but the
most sacred cause that was ever intrusted to
living man, and that he will not betray the
trust.
In conclusion let me say that If my twenty
years of work entities me to the confidence of
my co-workers, let me ask them to lay aside
every other consideration and help Mr.. Bryan
not Tor his sake, but the sake OF the princi-
pies which We all hold sacred and dear. If
success is achieved The Populist party can
never be denied the glory OF the victory. If
defeat awnits us and our standarG-bearer falls,
let there be no Populist arrows found in his
breast or in his back Let the responsibility
rest on other shoulders than our own.

Alaska Explorer Dyche Brings From the
Yakutat Country Valuable
CUrj0

SEATTLE, WASH, Oct. 21.-Professor
Lewis Lindsay Dyche, the noted Green
land walrus hunter, naturalist and profess
sor in the University of Kansas, has just
returned after summer in hunting and
exploration in the wilds of Alaska.
He was so successful and interested in
the natural history field presented in
Alaska that he intends to organize we'll
equipped expedition and return to the far
North, proba bly, in the summer of 1898.
This year he proceeded to Cooks Inlet,
and after some explorations he made his
permanent camp at the head of that Curl
Gus arm of the sea-that is, at the point
where the Kuik and the Madenuska rivers
join and enter the inlet together. This is
the place chosen the past summer by the
Alaska Commercial Company for its trad
ing post, which is in charge of man
named Creasing.
He had formerly been located fifty miles
further toward the sea and then his post
was 125 miles beyond Tyoonic. the prac-
tlcal head of navigation on the inlet. The
new site of this post was chosen for the
purpose of trading with the Copper River
Indians, who come down the KuiA and
Madenuska rivers periodically to trade.
At this place Dyche succeeded in making
u 1uc COlleCllOu Vi l16 ulateTldlS he WAS III
search OF, and also in adding number to
his already long list of adventures.
Dyche explored the Kuik River to its
source, thirty miles, with the aid of
crew of hardy natives. .'It took two
weeks to go up and two minutes to come
down." said the professor. He obtained
forty-two specimens of the new mountain
sheep, Orvus DALI; twelve large moose
heads, three caribou heads, six young sea
otters, mice, birds and other. interesting
forms, including quantity of ethnolog-
ical materials and 200 photographs. He
was the first man permitted to photograph
Princess Tom, the famous Yakatat .Prin-
cess, who is wealthier than any other
Alaskan native.
She has $4,000 in gold buried. and
wears on her arms 5000 in gold pieces ham,
mered into bracelets. she is 65 years
old and is living with her fifth husband,
who is 20 years of age and whom she pur-
chased from his parents for 500 blankets.
The Tlinkit women are masters Of their
househ olds.
In talking of Alaska. Dyche concluded:
"That country is full of glaciers slowly
tearing down rocks, the rivers are vomit-
ing out quantities of quicksands, the
mountains are smoking, earthquakes are
frequent and the coal is soft. In fact, the
country Is only half made. Leave it alone
for few centuries and it will be good
country.

GENERAL AARRIS0N'S w0RK.
The Ex- President Addresses Enthusiastic
Muihtudes at Many Places in
His Own State.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, Oct. 2l.-Gen-
eral Harrison, upon his arrival home this
evening. seemed but little fatigued and
was in the best of spirits. The Republican
leaders who accompanied him on his In
diana tour expressed qualification over the
days journey. Large crowds greeted the
ex-President all along the route. His spe-
cial train went into New Albany at 8
O'Clock this morning from Evansville
amid the tremendous footing of whistles
and firing of cannon.
The, street leading from the Air Line to
Scribner's Park was packed with people
to such degree that it was difficult to
force way through it for the carriages of
the distinguished speaker and party.
When he appeared from the rear OF his
car he was greeted with loud cheers. 1t
took time to get him to the park, and
more time alter he had arrived there 10
force a passage through the dense throng
to the stand. The crowd had been con-
tributed to by Louisville and points north
ana was estimated at from 10000 to % 600
people. General HARRISON addressed him
self first to the workingmen, of whom the
crowd was largely composed. explaining
that they were the first to suffer from a
deprecated dollar, and they had already
suffered enough from low tariff.
After the speech General Harrison was
driven to the Monon station, where his car
was awaiting him.
The next stop was at the little town of
Borden, where something over 1000 farm
ers had gathered, anc, as at all country
stops, there was a profusion of gold in the
decorations and uniforms.
At Salem, the county-seat of the sparsely
settled agricultural county of Washington,
a stop of nearly an hour was made. The
gathering surpassed anything Salem has
ever seen, estimated at about 10000, who
had gathered from Washington and ad ja-
cent counties, escorted by company of
cavalry.
At Bedford, the great center of the In
diana stone industry, was the most re-
markaple demonstration that was met
during the day. There was not less than
%, 600 people on hand. The crowd was so
great that it was almost impossible TO talk
to it, and not quarter of the people
could get within hearing distance.
At Greencaste the last stop scheduled
for the day. about 5000 people were found
wedged III the space about the depot, and
General Harrison spoke from the rear
platform. 1t was already dark and mis-
speech was very brief.
The party took supper in the car after
leaving there, ana the run to Indianapolis
was made without further incident.

San Dieoo,a L4ttle Taif.

SAN DIEGO, CAL, Oct. A.-A man
with bundle in his arms knocked at the
door of Mrs. Kings sanitarlum, at Union
and A streets, early last night and before
the woman realized the situation he
placed the bundle in her hands. He then
hastily entered a hack and the horses
were whipped into gallop. The bundle
contained girl baby not more than an
hour old. The officers are unable to
locate either of the parents and the hack
driver, George Knowles, refuses to talk.
The baby will be given over to the Day
Nursery. A note was pinned to the in
fant's clothes stating that the man would
return with clothes for it, but he has not
done so.
