Buffer Bryan.

Mr. Bryan has been doing a great deal
of hard work in behalf of the recogni-
ton of the Cuban insurgents, and has
neutralized the influence of Messrs.
German and other democratic pacifcos.
He has had an interview with nearly
every silver democrat upon the senate
floor and urged him to sustain the mi
nority report; first, because it is
democratic document and in the same
line taken by that party in the house
of representatives, and, secondly, be-
cause his sympathies are earnest in be-
half of the insurgents. Mr.. Bryan ar
CUES that the only way the democrats
can get any political prestige out of
the present situation is to take more
radical grounds than the republicans
and to outrun them in pursuit of popu-
lar favor. Mr.. Bryan was very urgent
also in advocating immediate action,
and took the grounds that if the demo
Gratis of the senate would insist upon
passing the Foraker resolution without
further debate they would place them
selves in an excellent position before
the country.-Chicago Record Gnd).

Clarence J. Berry Preparing to Lead a Big Expedition From Selma to
 the Gold Fields.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

FRESNO, Jan. 19.-Clarence J. Berry of the town of Selma, who returned from the Klondike with his wife last July, is preparing to lead a large ex- petition into that country next month. He and members of his prospective party are now actively engaged in col lecting suitable dogs to haul the pro- vision sleighs on the frozen trails, and other parties who are also preparing to go to the rich country are also buy ing, borrowing and begging dogs all over town There is at present dearth of eanines in Fresno and round about.
 Berry'S party will be composed or men from Selma, which is his home, put Hi Rapelje of this city will also be member of the Berry party, as well as his son and MT. Berry's brother-1n-laW All have been out collecting suitable dogs, and they have about 200 canines which are being broken to harness and trained to draw sleighs. Those who are engaged in training the animals say IL is not an easy matter to get them prop erly broken.
 The 200 dogs which have been collect ed in this vicinity are all stout and hairy animals. Some of them were purchased at as high a price as S5O they being household pets, but the own CTS were induced to part with them for hard cash in round sums. Several or the dogs brought as high as $50 and $40, but the average price paid for suit able KIondike canines was between $l0 and S20.
 The supply of dogs having good warm coats has been about exhausted in Fresno, and the prospective Klondik- CTS are looking elsewhere for animals for the frozen north. Hi Rapelje's son, of the Berry party, is now in the high Sierras gathering dogs there, as, owing to the colder climate there, nature pro vides the animals with warmer coats.
 Besides the Berry party, there are several other expeditions from this county going to the Kiondike, and they are also engaged in collecting dogs. A large party under the leadership of O.. P. Garrison, a well known farmer, will start on the first proximo. The party includes Frank Neate. night clerk at the Grand Central, and Al Wolcott, Deputy County Clerk. They have thir- ty dogs now being trained, some of which were obtained in San Francisco and others in Tulare.
 A. U Warnekros and wife are also preparing to start for Alaska to pros pect for gold, and have secured an out fit from the East, comprising a patent life-saving boat. They, too, are buying up dogs al good prices.

SAYS MURDERER HOLMES
 IS AMONG THE LIVING
Weird Yarn Told 6y Alan Kho cidims PhiIn. dolphin Prison Officers Juggied
 With Justice

CHICAGO, Jan. 20.-In an interview in the Inter Ocean this morning, Robert Lattimer, a well-known citizen of Engle- wood, says:
 Holmes, the arch murderer of the nine- teenth century, who is popularly sup posed to have been hanged at Philadel- phia on May ', 1896, for the murder of Benjamin F. Pitzel. is alive and well. and engaged in growing coffee near San Para maribo, in Paraguay, South America"
 Lattimer asserts that letters have been received from Holmes within the last few weeks by man with whom Holmes had intimate business relations during his residence in the famous or infamous Holmes Castle." Lattimer's description of the means by which the Philadelphia authorities juggled with justice in aiding in Holmes escape reads like a chapter from wild romance but he tells his story with such an air of verisimilitude that he has succeeded in interesting many Chicagoans, including the police, and says an investigation will be set on foot.

HOisted Portion of a POr<er Beside a Road With a Notice to His
 AccuserS.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

BAKERSFIELD. Jan. 19.-Alfred P. Ellis, an old resident of Linns Valley, high in the mountains of the north eastern portion of Kern, was brought to town Monday in custody of an of ficer on libel charge sworn to by Su- pervisor Henry Bohma, a resident of the same community. Linns Valley is a great hog raising country. Super visors Bohma and T. E. Wilkes each have large herds, and MT. Ellis has some porkers. It has been an open se- cret for many years that the rich little valley and its most coveted foothills abound with hog thieves that are hard to catch. In consequence of this there is a division almost bordering upon a feud in the community. Bohma and Wilkes are the friends of one side and Ellis is not the enemy of the other. Bohma and Wilkes are on the Qui vive, as is the case with many other neighbors, for any movement in the pork business.
 Ellis has mining interests. The other day he killed several porkers and start ed for the mines with their carcasses, intending to use some for himself and sell the remainder to miners. Bohma
 
 pears, concluded that something was wrong. They followed the wagon in charge of Ellis boy; they passed it and repassed it, each time taking a side squint at the ears of the dead hogs on the wagon. Finally they hurried away and got an officer with a search war rant and came back and gave the swines' ears a legal examination. It turned out that the ears bore the Ellis mark. Then wagon and its contents were permitted to move on.
 Shortly afterward the elder Ellis heard of what had happened. It made the grizzly old mountaineer angry, and in his desire to vent his wrath he pro- cured a shingle and another hogs ear and upon the shingle inscribed:
 ''To Henry Bohma and Tom Wilkes, the Linns Valley detectives: Here are some ears you did not find; you had better come and examine them"
 He tackled it along with ears upon a tree beside the public highway. Bohma passed that way and saw it. Bohfha swore to a complaint charging Ellis with criminal libel. Ellis was arrested and brought here and placed under $500 ball.
 All the persons are considered good citizens. Bohma represents the Third District of this county on the Board of Supervisors
