San Francisco Police Watching for an
Absconder from BuenOs Ayres.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1S.-For several
days past detectives have been doing duty
on the water front looking out for the ar
rival here of an important criminal from
Buenos Ayres. Every incoming vessel has
been carefully searched, especially those
from Central America. Close espionage has
also been maintained over the travellers by
rail from the north. The fugitive whose
capture Chief of Police Lees and his men
seek so eagerly is Jose de Salveri, the alb
sconding secretary of the Buenos Ayres
National Safe Deposit and Trust Company.
Salveri left his home recently with a sud
denness that set his employers to make an
immediate investigation of his accounts 1t
resulted in the discovery that Salveri had
carried with him 500, 600 cash belonging to
the National Safe Deposit and Trust Com
pany and $500 900 to the government. 1t is
reported that San Francisco was the des-
tination and the Buenos Ayres authorities
Salveri's capture carries with it a heavy
reward. Early this week the much-sought-
for fugitive was said to be in the vicinity
of Victoria and Seattle. The rumor is
doubted, however, at police Headquarters
The officials there think that if Salveri has
not made his way to Panama and taken a
steamer for Europe he is likely to turn up
any day at this port.

WELL-BACKED WHEAT CLIQUE.
Letter and His Crowd Soon to Have
All the Money They Want.

CHICAGO, Dec. Is. - Despite predictions
that this would be day full of surprises in
the Board of Trade, the bull clique, headed
by Joseph Letter, had smooth sailing ap-
parently, and seemed to have proved itself
capable of doing what it promised 1t took
the 100000 or more bushels of wheat de-
livered to it yesterday, and to-day the de-
liveries amounted to 1850 900 bushels more
But the price held firm. The promised storm
to-day was predicted because Armour had
begun unloading some of his enormous hold
ings yesterday. 1t was feared there would
be tremendous rush to-day to dump all
the wheat in Chicago into the lap of the
syndicate. But the result proved this
prophecy wrong. The Journal says: with
the 1,2OJ000 bushels delivered to-day the
Letter crowd has 200 bushels of wheat
in it's possession, acquired this week. How
much more the syndicate has bought long
is not known, but 1t may be as much as
S.0O0,000 or 100000 bushels. The amount
however, is probably only 100000 or 6,O0O-
600 bushels at the outside. AS December
probable the Letter clique meant what it
said when it announced that it wanted the
wheat and was not in the market for the
purpose of cornering the cereal. 1t appears
now that Joseph Letter and those with him
in this deal have arranged for all the money
they need to pay for the enormous lot of
wheat that will be delivered to them in all
probability. 1t is said that at least $6, 900 900
was on deposit in various banks in this city
to the credit of the December wheat clique
for the purpose of paying for the wheat to
be delivered to them''

A Disastrous CAMPAIGN.
Britain's Indian Army Unable to Com
Ouer the Afridis.

Copyright, 1897 by the Associated Press.)
LONDON, Dec. 1S-The reverse sunereo
by General Westmacott's brigade in the
Bara valley is in the nature of a disaster.
When the euphemisns are translated tlP
story appears to be that the most poWerful
force ever sent to the border has been
bundled out of Afridiland neck and crop.
On top of this comes the news that it is the
intention of Sir William Lockhart, the
British commander-in-chief, to invade the
country in another direction. The reasons
are obvious. The government feels that
something must be done forthwith to re-
trieve British prestige and the Khyber pass
road, which the AfridiS closed about SIX
months ago, will probably be comparatively
easily reopened
In the meanwhile the worst impression
has been created in Great Britain by the
reiteration of the statement that the rank
and file of at least four British regiments
showed decided lack of pluck in the pres
ence of native regiments An of1cer at tno
front wires: THE worst is that the native
troops have seen the cOWardice or their
white comrades,a and they state openly tnat X
any Tommy Atkins is rude TO them nere-
after they will hammer him; and the awful
thing is they can do So" 1t Is obvious that
If the natives lose their respect for BRUSH
courage Great Britain's hold on India IS
most precarious. The whole fault seems
to lie in expecting boys to do mems work
and in turning them adrift just when they
cannot end before March, and the cost, fuily
$50 coo 000 will necessitate the intervention
of the British treasury in order to avert the
bankruptcy of India.

TRIED TO BLUFF THE CzAR.
LabOuchere Tells Why Greece Made
War ON Turkey.

LONDON, Dec. 1S.-Henry Labouehere is
the author of a sensational article In Truth,
the authority for which is a well-known
foreign diplomat. The article says: Greece
was involved in the war with Turkey owing
to the endeavor of King George to bluff the
Car into hurrying the marriage of Princess
Mario The Czar declined to interfere, and
King George, knowing that Russia was
most desirous that there should be no dis
turbances in the south of Europe, played
with the war party until it got beyond mis-
control The Czar warned King George that
the Turks would occupy Athens and that
his dynasty would cease to reign. King
George finally entered into arrangements
with Russia, the latter promising that the
Turks should not go beyond rhessaly pro-
Vided no real stand was made against them,
that the Greek forces in Epirus would not
seriously operate against Jantna and the
Greek fleet would remain inactive. All these
arrangements were carried out, the crown
prince, Prince George and Colonel VassoS
all having secret orders from the King.
The Daily Chronicle, which continues to
champion the cause of the Greek royal fam
ily processes to know that the story is un-
true but it is generally believed.
The Crown Prince and Crown Princess OF
Greece otherwise the Duke and Duchess of
Sparta, will soon leave Athens to be absent
for year. Prince Constantine is suffering
from severe nervous depression, and he and
his wife, the Princess Sophia of Prussia
will go to the Riviera and then to Germany
and England.

ST PETERSBURG, Dec. 1S-It is an
nounced that Russian squadron, under
Rear Admiral Reounow has entered Port
Arthur, on the Chinese coast, with the en-
tire acquiescence of the Chinese govern
ment. The squadron intends to remain at
Port Arthur throughout the winter. This
is due solely to the need of a temporary
winter station and involves no question of
forcible occupation or hostile demonstra-
ton or any intention against China, Ger
many, Japan or any other power.
Port Arthur has practically been In the

to leaving the place. Previous to the war
between China and Japan, Port Arthur was
the largest naval station possessed by the
Chinese and was strongly fortified. There

Copyright, 1897. by the Associated Press)
LONDON, Dec. 1S-The general opinion
In England of the German war lords Ut
terances at Kiel this week, on the depar-
ture of Prince Henry of Prussia for China
with his war ships, is voiced by dplo-
mats remarks: It's a great pity that Ger
many, having an easy. safe and simple,
though slightly piratical piece of work on
hand, should not be able to perform it with
out setting the whole world laughing. The
papers are full of comment on the subject.
The Times says: 1.-The august utterances
are worthy of heroes of melodrama and
would seem high-fown to modern ideas if
uttered by Philip III as he dispatched the
armada; or Columbus, as he started to
carry the dominion of Spain over the
oceans. The Kaiser evoked memories of
Metz and Sedan to encourage Prince Henry
to keep a stout heart as he faces the perils
of the Suez canal and the terrors of the
China seas. Prince Henry's peroraton was
closed by a specimen of almost byzantine
self-abasement, unique in the annals of
modern Europe"
The Saturday Review thinks the nick
name of William the Witless," is no long
er adequate adding that he is stark, star
ing mad" Continuing, the Saturday Re
view remarks: 'In spite of the ominous
fact that he has alienated the newspapers
and professors, insulted the greatest mobiles
when they ventured to disagree with his ex-
traordinary activity, until the court is de-
serted and known throughout Germany as
the Court of Parvenus, the poor creature
continues to take himself seriously as a sort
of drill sergeant of Providence"
