FRESNO, May 15.-Although Pro-

four trials of forging the signatures of
William Wootton, the people of this val
ley have not heard the last of the case.
Some sensational evidence came to light
late this afternoon, which may draw DR..
Mcintosh, who was an expert on hand
writing in the Sanders trials, and who
is now on trial for perjury in the last
trial of Sanders, further into the tolls
than has the charge of perjury.

men Of that town would swear to having
seen Mcintosh at that place on Febru-

ferrous disappearance. Mcintosh is
believed to have visited Sanders, and
is also believed to have played the part

ing. He was retained by the defense

SAN FRANCISCO, May 15.-The en-

gunboat Marietta was made to-day.
The course was from Hunters Point
to Red Rock. The vessel succeeded in
attaining a speed of thirteen knots an
hour, or one knot more than required
by the contract.
Captain Robert Forsyth was engineer
in charge for the Union Iron Works and
Captain Charles Miner Goodallc was the
navigator. The Government was repre-
scented by Inspectors Snow, Gage and
Wilson. No visitors We're on board.
The report of the trip is to the effect
that the trial was exceedingly salts

trouble about the vessels acceptance
AS heretofore, the extra unit of speed
has called for q handsome bonus.
The Marietta is a small twin screw
vessel designed for duty in Chinese
waters or in the harbors where larger
vessels dare not venture. The official
trial trip viii occur some time next
week, the exact date not having been

REV. GEORGE GIBSON

SAN FRANCISCO, May 15.-The Rev.
). George Gibson, pastor of the Emman-
uel Baptist Church, has made vigorous
reply to the covert charges and insinu-
atoms made against him by Eugene
Deuprey, Durrant's attorney, during the
latter's plea for pardon before Governor
Budd.
The preacher says he does not intend
to allow himself to become a sacrifice
for the salvation of the life of a con-
demned murderer. He points out that
Mr.. Deuprey has been guilty of contra
dlctlon of his reference to the pastor.
for, in his closing address to the Jury.
the attorney spoke of the preacher as an
innocent man, though now he considers
him guilty
DIR. Gibson makes a strong point by
asserting that the address of Mrs. No
bic, written by him in court during the
preliminary examination of Durrant.
was written in imitation of the address
on the package of rings, and therefore
is not specimen of the usual writing of
the minister. This statement seems to
remove the strength of what Mr. Deu-
prey termed the suspicious similarity
between the two writings"
In conclusion, DR. Gibson asserts that
Mr.. Deuprey would have made out a
much better case for Durrant if the at
torney had courted the friendship of the
clergyman, instead of inviting his en-

THE GRAECO-TURKISH WAR.
Turkish Forces at Prevesa About &c
Capitulate to the Greeks.

ATHENS, May 1.-THE Greeks have
been bombarding Nikopolis since early
this morning.
A private dispatch from Arta just re-
ceived says the Turkish garrison at Pre-
vesa at the north entrance to the Gulf
of Arta, which has been besieged by the
Greek land and sea forces almost from
the outbreak of the war, has sent the
Greek Archbishop and five notabilities
of Preva to the commander of the be-
sieging Greek army with a message
saying the Turkish force is ready to
capitulate to the regular forces of
Greece.
Midnight.-The Government has adj
dressed a note to the Ministers of the
Powers, saying that the Turks. by forth
flying Griboro. are responsible for the
operations in Epirus. The Government
accuses the Porte if inducing small yes
sells to commit piracy upon the Greek
ships.
A second batch of troops has been re-
called from Crete, and it is announced
the third and last will soon be with
drawn.

the Powers have drawn a General out
of the war that will not be easy to get
back. Abdul Hamid is cool. and to the
point of insolence 1t is that of a SOW
ereign with a powerful army behind
him, and he is disposed to treat the
Powers cavalierly
Articles published in the semi-official
press of the Continent show that the
increase in the prestige of the Sultan
is the chief concern of the European
Cabinets, and that the prospects of an
effective enforcement of general re
forms for the Turkish Empire are
thereby relegated to the very distant
future.
The journal Des Debats" declares
the result of the war has been to place
Turkey in a position she has not held
for the past half-century, adding: Her
tremendous military effort is largely in
excess of what the struggle against
Greece required. 1t was done TO refute
the allegation of decrepitude and to
demonstrate TO the Sultan's own sub
/ jects and to those of the smaller States
and to the great Powers that Turkey is
able to hold her own against a war with
Greece"
The British, Russian and Austrian
newspapers re-echo these remarks, and
it is generally felt that this fact viii
have TO be reckoned with in the nego-
tiations of peace. In the meanwhile
the postponement of the Sultan's reply
until after the great Barim is inter
preted as meaning that his majesty in
tends that his army should contiue its
victory; advance until every strategic
point on the Othrya mountain range is
in the hands of the Turks. and that
only then will Edhem Pasha receive
orders TO stop fighting. The resumption
of fighting by the Greeks in Epirus is
regarded as foolish move, and only
furnishes Turkey with a plausible mo-
tive for refusing an armisticc. IT also
hurts the progress of the peace negotia-
TONS
The Chancellories are also occupied
with the difficult problem of how Greece
will pay the war indemnity which Tur-
key seems certain to demand. NJ. Del
yannis. the former Greek Premier. in
| his newspaper sanguinely argues that
Greece cannot be expected to pay an
indemnity, because the Turks declared
the war officially without provocation.'
| This view of the question is not shared
elsewhere, and an international COM
mission to administer the finances Of
Greece on the lines of the similar Turk
ish commission is mooted. The Greek
commission would it is proposed, sit

TO whom Meinecke sold all sorts of
