STOLE \ HORSE.
How u Native Boy Earned Small
Fee and Trouble.

f. Wickander, the carpenter, had a
rather unusual and annoying expert
ence Saturday afternoon. He rode up
to the corner of Hotel and Nuuanu,
near TO which he was doing some
work, and hitched his horse. When
he came out he found his faithful
steed missing. Inquiries far and near
brought no news of the animal, and
he finally thought to go to the pound.
There he found his horse in the faith
erly care of the keeper. 1t cost him
just So to get astride of him again.
WicHander was told that boy
named Kahalalauhina had left the
horse there with the statement that
he had found him loose on the streets
This did not go with the carpenter
and he had the boy arrested. 1t was
proved in the police court that the lat
ter had united the horse from the post
and ridden him over to the pound.
Judge Wilcox thought the pound fees
of So and court costs, $40 more.
would about make matters even and so
adjudged.

A. G. NJ. ROBERTSON WILL DE
FEND CAPT. GOOD.
Sessions of the Court viii Be Open
First Meeting Quite Informal-All
Are Interested in the Case.

The General Military Court appoint
ed Monday met at Regimental Head
quarters at 1880 Tuesday evening for
the purpose of hearing the case of
Captain John Good, Jr. Following
members were present: Lieut. Col.
Fisher, Majors Mcleod, Cooper, Iau-
bea, Potter and Captain w. A. Kinney
(Judge Advocate). In anticipation of
an open session the gates were left
open and a large number of people
congregated on the grounds.
At the hour of opening the court
the accused sent for Judge Advocate
Kinney. The latter visited the tent
in the yard and in "A few moments re-
turned with the request from Captain
Good that the case be postponed to
next Friday evening, on account that
his attorney, A. G. NJ. Robertson, was
out of town and might not return be-
fore Thursday night. An informal
conference was held by the members
as result of which the prisoner was
advised that the request was acceded
to. The court then dispersed without
even the formality of being sworn in.
During the informal conference of
the commission it was decided that all
it's meetings should be open to the
press and the public.
Interest in the matter seems to in
tensify about town rather than SUBJ
side under innumerable thrashings-
out. A number of idle stories have
been given wide circulation the work
partly of reckless newspaper writings.
Only those who stuck to The Stars
account of the trouble published Mon
day have been in possession of true
facts past and present. In military
circles nothing has been more gener-
ally talked about in a long while. OF
course the events of the past two days
have been anticipated for some time.

Essequebo. Practically all of the gold
fields are situated in Essequebo coun-
ty and nearly all of the territory
which comprises that county is under
dispute.
While the rest of the world is look
ing upon the question as practically
settled, SO far as it is concerned as to
possibility of war the point of view
here is entirely different.
Gold is here and to what extent
may be judged from the registrations
for the last three days, and every bit
of it was taken out by placer mining.
The day before yesterday 673 ounces.
yesterday 3OS ounces, today 1000
ounces were taken out. Owing to the
volcanic nature of the country, and
the difficulty experienced in getting
to the fields, long canoe trips being
necessary, up to the present time min
ing has been very crude.
AS for the British claim that there
are $1,000 British subjects in Esseque =
DO county, exclusive of government Off
Gals, Il is very misleading. If line
should be drawn due south from the
Morocco river, it would be found the
actual settlers between that and the
Schomburgk line would not number
1900. while in the northwest district,
on the coast directly south of the ORR
noco river, where the best quartz is
supposed to exist, there are not more
than 1000 actual settlers.

Not only did Herr Ahltwardt receive
a severe beating from a mob in Hobo
ken last night, but he is now a prisoner
at Hoboken police headquarters,
charged with carrying concealed weap-
ons on the streets.
Ahlwardt was engaged to make an ad-
dress before the anti-Semetic society
of Hoboken at Germanie hall last night.
When he appeared he was jostled and
some one threw a brick which landed
on his head with stunning force, cutting
open the scalp badly. The crowd closed
about him and he received blows from
all sides. He was struck in the face
and head and kicked about the legs.
He tried to draw his revolver and final
ly succeeded in doing so just as a
squad of police, with flying wedge for
nation, struck the middle of the crowd
and rescued the victim. A number of
both factions were arrested.

today adopted the conference report
on the Cuban resolutions by vote Of
pa to 81, and passed the river and har-

of forty minutes, by vote of 216 to 40
The report on the Cuban resolu-
Saturday and the vote today was taken
Immediately after the reading of the
journal.
Eighteen Republicans and nine Dem
ocrats voted against the report.
After the most determined opposi-
ton to recognition of the insurgents in
the senate and house, there were but
ten more votes against the report than
against the original resolutions. The
former vote was 262 to II. By its ac-
ton today the house agreed to the
senate resolutions and disposed of the
Cuban question for the present. Those
resolutions were as follows:
THE RESOLUTIONS.
Resolved. That in the opinion of
congress condition of public war ex-
lists between the government of Spain
and the government proclaimed and
for some time maintained by force of
arms by the people of Cuba; and that

The above is the New Manifesto"
as it is generally termed, issued by the
authorities of the Mormon church and
adopted at the general conference yes
terday afternoon.
1t may be safely said that no move
ment of the church since the first man
ifesto was issued has created so much
interest here. and as soon as the ma
ture of the address became generally
known it was the one subject of dis
cussion all over the city.
From the fact that Apostle Moses
Thatchers name did not appear with
the others of the quorum attached to
the document, the conclusion was
jumped at that he had been removed,
and this idea vas strengthened be-
cause when the apostles were pre-
scented at the conference in the after
noon to be sustained, no mention was
made of Mr. Thatcher.
AS matter of fact, however, Mr..
Thatcher has not been removed, al
though the action of the authorities
is taken to be virtually a suspension
until he either places himself in &C.
cord with the position taken by the
authorities, or they have had further
time in which to consider his case.
AS TO COUNSEL.
The reference in the New Mani
festo'' as to the duty of officials in
the church to apply to the proper au-
thorities in the church for counsel,
was the point to which a large ele-
ment objected. OF course. there had
not been time for many to carefully
consider the lengthy document, and
while scores of prominent citizens were
seen in regard to the matter. they I'd
not, as a rule, care to express them
selves unreservedly at this time.
All were anxious to know whether
the manifesto had been presented to
Apostle Thatcher for his endorsement,
and if so, what his reasons were for
declining to sign it.

POCATELLO. Ida, April 6.-James B.
Scanlon, the depot policeman who was
stabbed by an unknown man at 2:3O Sun
day morning, on the station platform in
this city, died at 1875 this morning.
DIR. Perkins, of Ogden, performed an
operation on the injured man last night,
removing a portion of his spleen, but he
could not survive the shock occasioned
thereby. The slayer is still at large in
spite of the efforts put forth by the
officers, railway company and citizens.
A posse of deputies are securing the
country night and day. Indian police have
lent their assistance in hunting down the
slayer, but not the slightest clue has been
discovered.
The railway company is using every eff
fort to effect his capture and all trains
are searched before leaving terminals.
Scanlon had been in the employ of the
Union Pacific for the past year.
He has sister residing in Bombay. N
