prevented from going on with the investi-
CATION of the il tees books.
Beverly's sworn statements, however,
are now on file in the offices OF the County
Treasurer and the Board of Supervisors,
and from what has taken place in refer
ence thereto it seems that felony has
been committed and Grand Juror Mock
bee has placed himself in very peculiar
position.
l don't believe that any moral evidence
need be used to bring about conviction,
for the reason that sufficient 'indisput-
able legal documentary evidence" is now
in existence to establish the truthiulness
OF the foregoing.
Upon my last visit to the Grand
Jury room Grand Juror Mockbee
actually admitted in the presence
the county were wrong, and that he,
the said Mockbee, had gone 10 the Treas
urer's office and delivered money due by
Beverly to the Treasurer. This statement
of Mock bee shows that he was not keep
ing his oath as a Grand Juror and per-
forming his duties according to law.
There is no doubt in my mind that MOCK
bee was a personal friend of Beverly, and
as a Dondsman OF Beverly he was in
terested in the matter.
As to the exposure made by THE CALL
and also the accus atiOns against Judge
Loriean, can positively state that | did
not know anything about The CALL S
article until my attention was directed to
it by Deputy District Attorney Beasly. L
then procured a copy of THE CALL and,
after reading the article, l felt fully con-
vinCed that it was a truthful statement
and was a fit subject for public criticism.
In Justice to Juror Carroll L desire TO
say that he never had any conversation
with me as to what took place in the
Grand Jury room. l would have been
perfectly willing that Judge Lorigan
should have examined me in reference 10
the matter, and l would have told the
truth.
The unwarranted attack OF Judge Lori
gan upon Juror Carroll deserves the most
severe criticism, and l cannot for one
moment see why Judge Lorigan used
such language toward Carroll, for
the reason that Judge Lorigan
openly admitted that there was no
charge or legal evidence against Carroll.
| desire to call the attention of the pu bic
to the following fact, that Judge Lorigan
failed to ask single juror Is to the truth
or falsiLy OF the charges made IN The
CALL.
In conclusion, If the statement in The
CALL is correct, and which l have every
reason TO believe 1t is rs ir has never been
contradict what became OF the two In
diCtments against Dwyer and what intiu-
ence was used 10 prevent the same from

first appearance in England.
The betting favored White in the White
Jordan contest. He is taller than his op-

Jordan, however, never wasted a blow and
always left the marks OF his handiwork
He did plenty of execution with both
hands and at close quarters he weakened.
White was much distressed in the nine

gave in for him.
In the Sullivan Curran bout the latter

rounds, but his eXertions told upon him

FASTEST YACHT
ON THE COAST
The Famous Aggie to
Sail on San Fran
cisco Bay.
Is Now on the Way From
Puget Sound to Her New
Home.
Purchased by E. A. Wiltsee, Who
VIII Enter the Craft in Local
Races.
Special Dispatch to The CALI.

SEATTLE, Nov. 29.-The yacht Aggie,
which is the fastest on the Pacific Coast,
is now owned by E. A. Wlltsee of San
Francisco. The deal by which the Agg e
passed from the possession OF Edward F.
Sweeney OF this city was closed some days
afo, and the yacht is now on her way to
San Francisco, having sailed from here
nearly week ago.
The Aggie cost her original owners in
the nelg n borhood of $25000 She was
built twelve or fifteen years ago. Until
Sweeney bought her she was the pride OF
the San Francisco yachting men. In the
summer OF 1895 Sweeney went to San
Francisco ana purchased her, paying
about $1,000.
Every time the owner of the Aggie, or
his friends, have been in San Francisco
since the sale the yachtsmen of that city
have talked about the Aggie and repeat.
edly stated that the time would come
when she would be the pride OF the city.
Severa weeks ago Wiltsee, who takes as
much interest in yacht as IN turf affairs,
concluded that the Aggie's home was in
San Francisco.
He is said to be a thorough sport and
having accum ulated $500.00J during the
mining excitement in South africa some
years ago was in a position 10 talk busi-
ne's. This he did in such terms that a
sale was consummated for considera ton
Of about $4,000.
Wiltsee is identified with several big
mining enterprises in San Francisco, and
it is said that he will race the Agge for q
time and later send her to Alaska on 0
trip similar to the one contemplated by
Sweeney. Shortly before the sale Sweeney
had about completed arrange ments
whereby she was TO b. fitted out for long
prospecting trip in waters close to south
eastern Alaska. The trip had been out.
lined and the Aggie would have left in the
spring on her journey. She would have
been pared for a long cruise and a SIN al
steamer would have accompanied her tC
navigate waters where the yacht would be
unable 10 go.
Good mining men would have been il
the prospecting party, and Sweeney ant
his friends had figured on getting posses
sion of some mining claims which would,
with the development of the country, be-
come valuable 10 their owner. But now
the prospecting trip is off, and Seattle viii
no longer boast that she is the owner of
the fastest Yacht on the coast.

Throughout the game Schaefer used his

gree. Daily, on the other hand, seeme ed
unable to do thing with his draw. He
did not begin to get his stroke until the
game was virtually out Of reach.
In the forty second inning a three.
cushion shot, with a drive for position,
brought down the house. In the following
inning masse won great applause for tn e
New Yorker. Pretty work in the forty
fourth inning yielded bunch OF 80 foI
