BELIEVES THE SAMARiA LOST
Story of Captain Dermot of the 6arkentine
PortIan0-The Vessel He Say in
N Cf0rr1

PORTLAND, Or, April 16.-There is q
bare possibility that Captain Thomas Der
mot of the barkentine Portland, now load
ing lum Der in port, caught last glance of
the missing bark Samaria. If such was
the vessel sighted by the Portland, then,
as Captain Dermot states it, he has grave
fears that the Samaria never rode out the
storm,
cit was on the afternoon OF Friday last,
and we were some deg. off the coast and
bucklng into the worst storm and sea l
have ever encountered In the Pacific
cane that che atmosphere was filled with
the flying spume, making it hard matter
to see two ships lengths ahead OF the
Portland.
Suddenly the horizon cleared to the
northwest and we plainly made out a
vessel of about the size and build OF the
Samaria. but so far distant as to be unable
to discern any signals had she been flying
them. The vessel was laboring fearfully
in the tremendous sea running. Every
thing forward appeared a-wreek. her head
sails being gone ana the craft having
broached to. --.
"a moment later the flying mist shut
down again thick, and the vessel was lost
to sight. l cannot say il was the Samaria
but as l understand it that vessel would
have been near that position at the time.
If it was the Samaria, then, with her dead
weight cargo of coal and in her partially
dismantled condition, l have little hope of
her ever being heard from again"

Los ANGELES, CAL, April 16.-La

SAUSAL/T0 FIRE TROUBLES.
Citizens State That They WiH Start q
Fire Department of Their Own
for Profec cfio1

SAUSALITO, CAL, April 16-Trouble
is brewing between the citizens OF Sausa-
Tito who are taking an interest in fire ap-
paratus and the regular members of the
Sausalito Fire Department. AT mass
meeting of residents held some time since
it was left TO J. +. Harmes to appoint a
committee of five to secure apparatus to
use in case OF fire. Mr.. Harmes appointed
the following gentlemen. together with
himself, on the com mittee: j. NJ. Kill
garif, II. A. Cobb, Thomas Frost, Fred
Raisch.
Information in regard TO the expenditure
of town money for fire apparatus has been
obtained and q breezy little explanation
is said to follow. The citizens committee
has said that they intend to start fire
department of their own and act ipde-
pendently OF the regular department.
AFTER every FIRE in Sausalito.'' said
President Sylvia of the Sausalito Fire De-
partment to-day, "this same sort of rum
pus is raised and never amounts to any,
thing. The hill people are not the ones
who take off their coats and fight the
fires. They are not here in the daytime,
and il a fire broke out then they would not
be here to fight it. All this talk won t
amount to anything"
The other aide tells different story.
They say that over $4,000 has been ex-
perfded for fire protection and the town is
sadly in need of proper apparatus. They
intend to get at the bottom of the matter.

Several important matters are on the

Very Romantic Story of
Why He Killed Drug
giSt Putnam.
To Protect the Sacred Honor
of a Lady He Pledged
His Word.
Evidence Before Governor Budd
to Prove the Tale-A Com
promising Latter.

SACRAMENTO, CAL. April 16.-It is
claimed that within few days evidence
will be laid before Governor Budd which
may induce him 10 grant pardon to DR..
W. A. Sehorn, editor of the Willows
Gazette. whp. something over year ago,
killed J. e. Putnam, a druggist OF Will
lows. and was sentenced to term OF
eight years in the State prison, the sem
tencs of the Superior Court having been
lately affirmed by the Supreme Court Of
the State.
Should the claims made be proved true
it will exemplify that Editor Sehorn is
man of honor who, rather than violate his
plighted word to a lady, preferred 70 en-
dure the ignominy of the State prison.
Briefly the story is as follows: A
wealthy young lady of Colusa County,
who Is well known in swell society circles
and whom Sehorn had been acquainted
with from her infancy, while visiting in
Sacramento received, it is claimed, the
following insulting letter from Putnam
WILLOWS, Aug. II, 1894.
Ny Eearest Friend l will be down Sunday on
my way to the State Convention. Now, my
dear friend. want you 10 go down to the City
with me Monday. All the other delegates will
go on TO the city on Sunday, so no one will see
US. Do not say you will not go. as we can have
good time and no one viii ever know it. If
you cannot go wire me Saturday using the fol-
lowing words, alt is off, and do not sign any
name. p.
In her grief and anger she. after pledg
ing Sehorn to eternal secrecy, gave him
the letter and in subsequent editorials
from his pen he frequently used the
words, sit is off" This gave Putnam to
understand that the letter was in his pos
session, and it is claimed that one evening
Putnam sprang into the editors sanctum
and, presenting pistol at his head, de-
manded the epi.tle. 1t is claimed that
Sehorn demonstrated with him until
catching him off his guard he drew his
own pistol and drove the druggist from
the room, but as he left he is claimed 10
have said, "Tll kill you on sight"
All OF this story Sehorn has, in honor
to mis- .plighted word, withheld, but now
that no other legal hope remains 10 keep
the prison doors from closing on him, the
young lady has demanded that the whole
story be presented to the Governor as a
proof that the killing was an act of self
defense.

NEWS or SAN JOSE.
Sues for Damages for Defama-
ton of Character

SAN JOSE CAL, April 16.-Otto Neu-
haus, proprietor of a roadhouse near Los
Gatos, to-day began suit in the Superior
Court against ". n. Greer for SIC. coo am
ages, for charges OF forgery and defama-
tion OF character. Neuhaus has had
trouble over securing liquor license for
his place, and Greer and other citizens in
the vicinity have opposed the granting OF
the license before the Board of Super
visors. In the complaint Neuhaus alleges
that Greer accused him of forging sigma
lures to a petition for liquor license
presented to the Supervisors last year,
and wants $4,000 damages for this asser-
ton. The second count is that the de-
fendant referred to his place as disreputa-
BILE and house OF i'll fame, for which the
same amount of damages is asked. The
llbelous utterances are said to have been
made last February.

Ruling of the Supreme Court With
Which Judge Carroll Cook
DiSagrees.

FRESNO, CAL, April 16.-The jury
which is trying Professor w. A. Sanders
on charge of forgery returned at mid
night last night from visit to the Woot-
ton ranch, which is situated in the foot
hills forty miles east OF this city. Judge
Carroll Cook and the entire court, includ-
ing the defendant, accom- panied the Jury
The day was very warm, and the long ride
was very dlsagreeabie one.
To-day the introduction of testimony
began. Charles Rohloff. VINO was work
ing on the ranch at the time of Wootton's
disappearance, and who saw the wealthy
rancher drive away with Sanders on the
afternoon of February l, 1894, was on the
stand the entire day.
The most important feature of the pro-
ceed ings of the day was the statement OF
Judge Carroll Cook that in his opinion
the introduction OF all matters not bear
ing directly upon the forgery char ge
should not be permitted to 60 before the
jury.
But in the appeal taken to the Supreme
Court by the defendant, when he secured
new trial, that tribunal held that testi-
mony connecting Sanders with Woorton's
disappearance was admissible, in that it
tended to corroborate the evidence show
ing that the signature of Wootton's name
to the $1400 draft could not be genuine.
Judge Cook said that no matter what
his own opinion might be he would have
to recognize the rulings of the Supreme
Court as the law in the case. and, there
fore, allow the testimony which the de-
tense claimed was extraneous. The court
stated that he wanted The record to show
that he permitted the testimony on this
ground, as his own views did not conform
with those OF the Supreme Judges.
Mr.. Short objected 10 the introduction
of the indirect testimony shortly after
Rohlof was placed upon the stand, as At
torney Kinds for the prosecution i'm medl-
ately began questioning the witness re-
earding Wooiton's dlsa ppearance from
the ranch on February 1. 1894.
Attorney Short has at all the trials
strongly maintained that such evidence
murder and was not relevant to the for
gerry charge.
The disagreement of Judge Cooks
opinion with tho views of the Supreme
Court is interesting, as the Judge is recog-
niZed as one of the best authorities on
criminal law in the State.
Witness Rohloff made a change in his
testim ony from that he gave at the last
trial. He to-day cont,adicted the former
assertion that on his visit to the ranch the
week before he took Wootton away Sanders
started home in the afternoon. To-day
the witness said it was in the morning.
This is important, as the defense have
heretofore agreed that the witnesses who
saw Sanders driving alone on February l.
presumably after he had hidden Woot.
toms body, were mistaken as to dates.
