THE DUNHAM SUSPECT.
The Sheriff Still Doubts the Iden-
tity of the Man in Mexico.

SAN JOSE, Oct. 16.-The Sheriff to-
day received a telegram from Rosario,
Mexico, which further confirms his
theory that the man now under arrest
there is not the muchly- wanted mur-
derer Dunham.
The dispatch was in response to one
sent by the Sheriff TO the Mexican au-
thorities asking for further information
concerning the description of the pris-
oner's appearance. The answer was
that his eyebrows are wide, far apart
and Of short hair; that his teeth are
small and have no filings, and that.
besides scar on his mouth, there is a
scar from bullet wound near his right
knee.
From the best information obtained
by the Sheriff, Dunham had one prom
inent filling in a front tooth, and moth
ing is known about the scars on his
face and leg.
eve still doubt that the man is Dun
ham," said the Sheriff, but there are a
few here who think the right man has
been caught. Among them is the Dis
trict Attorney. The latter and myself
have decided to lay all the facts before
the Board of Supervisors on Monday
night, and, if the board deems it adj
visable, I will send a man to Mexico

The Steamer Triton Wrecked on the
Coast of Cuba.
The Purser and One Of The Passengers
Arrive at Mariel.
Have No knowledge Regarding the
Fate of Others On the In-Fated
Vessel, Numbering Over Two
Hundred Persons, All of Whom,
It is Feared, Perished.

HAVANA, Oct 16-The coasting
steamer Triton, from Havana to Ba-
hia Honda, Province of Pinar del Rio,
has been wrecked between Dominica
and Mariel, on the coast of that prov
ince. The steamer went ashore this
morning during heavy weather, ground
ing about eight miles from the coast.
The purser and one of the passen-
gers have arrived at Mariel. They say
they have no knowledge regarding the
fate of the Captain fifty passengers,
soldiers and civilians, and the thirty
members of the crew of the Triton The
missing passengers include several we'll
known merchants.
The Spanish gunboat Maria Christina
and the tug Louisa have left this port
for the scene of the wreck.
1t was later said that the Triton had
on board over 200 passengers, soldiers
and civilians, and it is feared that they
have all perished, in addition to the
thirty men composing the steamers
crew. No details of the wreck, howev-
err have yet been received here.
Owing to the heavy sea that was
running, the gunboat Christina found
it impossible to reach the scene of the
disaster tonight. Only the purser and
one passenger We're saved. Among the
lost were two navy and two army ot1i-
GERS.
On board the Triton was $31,600 IN
silver for the payment Of the Spanish
military and naval forces.
The Triton, it is claimed, was over
loaded. She carried a large quantity
of groceries and ammunition, and had
on board ninety-three rifles for Gov
ernment troops.

CHAOS REIGNS IN GUATEMALA,
BUSINESS STAGNATED BY THE
REVOLUTION.
Coffee Plantations Are Being De-
serted and the Berries Rot
ting On the Trees.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. ia prl-
vate letter received here to-day from
Guatemala says that chaos reigns in
the little republic, and that all lines
of business are stagnated by the revo-
luton. Exchange is up to 1S5, and the
coffee plantations are being desert
ed, with the berries rotting on the trees.
The owners of the fincas are in terror
of assessments, and all the native pro-
prietors have been mulcted in large
sums for the purpose of carrying on
the war According to the letter, they
are first assessed by Barrios, and then
by the revolutionists. Both the Gov
ernment and the rebels are pressing
the laborers into the army wherever
they find them, and the 1aborers are
taking to the woods.

necessary in order to get away from
the spies of Barrfos, who were hound
ing and annoying them. There is no
love lost between these gentlemen and

GUATEMALA AND SALVADOR.
san JOSE (Guatemala), Oct. 10
Since the invasion of Guatemala by
the rebel leader, Leon Castillo, from
Salvadorean territory. who now seri-
ously menaces the Barrios regime, sew
eral sharp notes and messages have
been exchanged by the two Governments
Salvador claims that her utmost vigil
lance along the frontier could not pre-
vent the invasion of Guatemala.
On the other hand, Guatemala
charges that Salvador is lending, if not
material aid, silent consent to the re-
bellion. It is noteworthy fact that a
large number Of Salvadoreans accom-
panied General Castillo.
Salvador is anxious to give all expla-
nations to Guatemala, and has sent
General Rafael Reyes as a special en-
voy. General Reyes has arrived here
and started for the Capital about two
hours later
Information received here is that
General Toledo, President Barrios' chief
of staff, was wounded and was taken
prisoner by the revolutionfsts Two

A hush fell over the courtroom at

EASTERN GRAIN MARKET.
PRICES FLUCTUATE IN THE
CHICAGO EXCHANGE.
Wheat Opens Weak, Advances On
Foreign Advices, With a Re-
action at the Close.

CHICAGO, Oct. 16. - Wet weather
throughout the greater part of the
winter in all of the spring wheat ter
ritory, disappointing foreign markets
and a very marked increase in the
wheat receipts in the Northwest con-
fronted the wheat trade at the open
ing. The effect was partially offset by
the surprisingly large exports for the
week. There was nevertheless a gen.
eral selling out of wheat by the imme-
diate holders, and the opening market
was lower, December starting at from
91@91Ac, as compared with yester-
days closing price of 91ss@9112c.
The weakness was short-lived. how
ever, as the lower prices stimulated
buying, and caused a. rally of 1 cent
per bushel in a very few minutes, De-
cember advancing to 92Ac. The De-
cember future acts as though it were
considerably congested, as it seemed
at 212c premium over May.
The Bradstreet report shows wheat
and flour exports equal to $685. 900
bushels, against 4, S46,U0O bushels a
week previous, and 4,517,00 bushels
for the corresponding week last year.
Revival of the old rumors that Rus
sia would prohibit wheat and rye ex-
ports, and that France would abolish
its import duty on wheat, created a lit
tie bullish furry an hour after the ses-
sion opened, and December advanced
to 927sc while the news was circulating
The receipts at all primary markets
aggregated /, POP 600 bushels, against
937 coo bushels for the corresponding
day a year ago. Chicago receipts were
133 cars.
Liverpool opened sd higher, but
closed only I'd higher for near months
to 1sd lower for deferred. Paris closed
unchanged to 10 centimes lower for
wheat, but 10 to 40 centimes higher for
flour, and Antwerp quoted wheat un-
changed to 1919 centimes higher
Despite the apathy shown in their in
their own markets, however, there was
evidence conclusive that the foreigners
were also buying literally to cover
sales abroad, and the strong tone OF
the market for ocean freights indicated
that the cash stuff was going out
The advance for the day was tempt
ing enough to induce many owners OF
wheat to sell out and take their prof
it's, rather than carry the property over
to next week. The result was a slight
reaction from top figures. December
was selling at 92llac at the close.
