A. JURY SECURED
 TO TRY WIDBER
KOSHER WAS KIND TO THE AC-
 CUSED MAN.
Tn His Opening Statement He Re- trained From Alluding to the Ex-Treasurer's Fast
 Life.

A jury was secured in Judge Cook 8 court yesterday to decide the guilt of ex- Treasurer Widber, who is charged with embezzlement and misappropriating the funds intrusted to his care while he was serving in an official capacity. The fol- lowing were the twelve citizens chosen: W. E. Lovejoy, 123 Bernard street; w. w. Griffin, 1909 Florida; R. Mehrtens, 100 Haight; John Bonner, Turk and Leaven- worth; w. H. Miller, 1709 Baker; James Sullivan, 305S Twenty y-fifth; F. A. Will, S0s Van Ness avenue: w. J. Thompson, TIT Eddy; L. Lasar. 1532 Post; H. Bendit, 1919 Geary; J. H. Nolan, Third and Perry; w. P Higginbotham, 31 Jessie.
 As soon as the jury was sworn in As sistant District Attorney Hosmer made the opening statement for the prosecu- ton. His remarks were very brief. and not unkind to the accused man. He told the jury that the prosecution would at tempt to prove that Widber had taken gold coins out of the sacks in the vaults in the Treasurer's office and in their place substituted silver dollars in an attempt to

 or a protectorate from the United States I am unable to say. Of course, think that Aguinaldo and his followers would be pleased with independence, yet l can not say that it will be asked for. When we reach Washington an effort will be made to see President Mckinley and con- fer with him.
 "We do not know whether or not we will go to the Peace Commission al Paris. This will also depend upon the instruc- tions we are to receive at Washington by cablegraph. If Aguinaldo wishes us to go to Paris. why, we will go and present our claims. No, what they will be l cannot say. Everything will depend upon our in structions, which we are to receive at Washington. You see, 1t will then be four weeks since we left the Philippine Islands, and the condition of affairs may have altered considerably since that time. Aguinaldo is our principal. and his wishes must be followed out in detail"
 Major General Greene was in close con- ference with the representatives of the insurgents numberless times during the trip from Manila to this city. He Is very friendly with them, and they seem to de- pend upon him for suggestions. General Greene, with a wink of his eye, smiles complacently when asked about .Ae in- surgent chieftains plans and intentions. The question of politics General Greene refuses to discuss, even in regard to the desires and demands of the representative Filipinos.

CAPTAIN DASHER OF
 THE SIXTH DENOUNCED
Serious Charges Made by Company A, Now on Furlough at
 Sf0ckfon

STOCKTON, Sept. 22.-Some soldiers of Company A, Sixth California Regiment, stationed at nlcatraz, but home on furlough, are most bitter in denunciation of Captain Dasher of the company, and propose to try to have him court-mar- tialed for failing to pass certain written applications made by them up to the proper authority. Ii is said that one of the prfvates went to Dasher and asked him fer furlough to go to his home in San Jose, where his child was dying. The request was promptly refused and when the letter telling of the condition of the child was shown to the captain he was even so rude, 1t Is said, as to throw 1t on the fioor
 Many of the 1o6 men in the company have presented requests to be transferred to other companies, but the captain is reported to have torn them in pieces. This is & violation of the rules, as such communications should be forwarded to the adjutant. One of the men whose request was torn up has decided to carry the matter to headquarters. Many re- o,,ests for furlough have been refused by basher when, 1t Is claimed, the reten- ion of the men with the company was entirely unnecessary. It Is said that sey- erai cfastisements have been promised the captain when the men meet him ih cixrfI life again.

\ GUINALDO'S representative to this N Government, Felipe Agoncillo, and n his secretary. Sixto Lopez, arrived
 yesterday on the China. and left last night for Washington, where they will present the insurgents cause before President Mckinley and his Cabinet.
 Senor Agoncillo Is a lawyer of Manila and a trusted friend of the rebel leader. He has been the confidential depository of Aguinaldo's ambitions, designs, hopes, successes and failures, and knows nis plans and intentions. It Is rumored that the $500 900 subsidy which came to the hands of Aguinaldo was divided between him and the leader of the insurgents. He is now on his way to Washington to lay bare the demands and desires of his principal.
 Senor Agoncillo is not an English scholar, and allows himself to be inter viewed through his secretary, Senor Lopez, whose command of English Is that of stuttering schoolboy with a year s experience in the yagaries of Anglo Saxon grammar.
 Agoncillo is small of stature, with all the racial characteristics of the Malay product. His secretary Is the typical Filipino.
